You know, the clothes would be over 24 hours.
And that line of, like, under the radar type of shit.
I ain't gonna say wet club
Yeah, yeah
I'm saying
I'm something
I ain't gonna lie
I lived in Atlanta during COVID
Oh sorry y'all
I lived in Atlanta during COVID
and it was just the funniest time of my life
Because motherfuckers was in the club
They didn't get
Nobody had on makeup
Like and nobody cared about shit
We was just all outside
Having a grand old time
Like right now
We live in life right now
I mean, but we care a little.
Like, back then, nobody cared about shit.
We just cared about being outside and being alive.
It was fun.
But if, like, so I'm a foodie.
So if we come to Adamsville, where are we eating at?
Inside Adamville, probably, like, it's called, it's a wind spot at a marathon.
You're going to take us?
It's at the gas station?
So we're going to get our, we're going to get our white teeth from you that's bulked up, like, cocaine.
And then we're going to go get.

so you're gonna worry about eating out
I'm not gonna lie that
that being giving me like a little spoiled
like yeah as you should be

but I ain't a long from to stop out
but how do a girl push up if you got a chef
You got a chef?

But, like, girl might push up and make it different.
It's a rotel deal.
Okay.

So, do you care if a girl can cook?
No, not in 2020.
She's not a shot?
No what matters.
I mean, I would like that.
I don't know.
It's not a deal.
It depends how strong she is in other shit.
If you can't do nothing else and you can't cook,
now I'm going to be looking at the fact that you can't cook.
Look's not enough.
Looks not enough.
No.
Vive got to be there.
I ain't going to lie.
The vibe is really important.
Vib is priority.

You got to have a vibe.
Mm-hmm.
You got to be pretty and you got to have some being about yourself.
Now, being about yourself ain't really just necessarily saying you're successful.
As long as you, like, got some type of stride or, like, some type of wake up and just, I don't know, just, you know that feeling.
No.
No.
Ambition.
You chose.
I definitely.
You're chosen.
You ain't got to be chosen.
Like, you just got to have ambition.
Like, it's so many different levels of ambition.
Like, I just left this ring somewhere.
And like a homeless man.
Y'all see that beef of Barbie.
And it was still there.
No, it was gone.
But like I seen a homeless man on the street,
gave me the ring, like,

Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers.
And guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news, name?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
And well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers.
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, people could call in and say, hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your
podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.
What's up, fam? It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm CJ Toledano, and our podcast Point Game is about
Defying the Odds. Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed.
And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game.
His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows. Without Luca and Austin
Reeves, I got to manipulate the game. We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the
playoffs. I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series because when they don't have Rudy in the
lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid. He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has
to give us everything he gives us on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by,
like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too. Steve Nash would get that thing.
That man, hell get to fly. He running up the court, licking his fingers, why he got the bar.
Like, you go through a training camp with that, Isaiah. You figure it.
out real quick.
Get your ass up and down the court, and you're going to get the ball.
So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your
podcasts.
I love the sounds, the buzzing from the stadium, the chanting from the fans, the announcers
calling the place soccer, football, at home.
Why do I watch the walk up?
That's like asking me, why do I breed?
I inherited that fandom from my mom.
I like watching it with my dad.
It's a connecting force.
From Futuro Studios, I'm Fernando Chavari, and this is American Football,
a show about soccer culture in the U.S. and its underdog roots.
We go beyond the game to the people and the stories that make it great.
A soccer game is a festival.
It's not just a game.
It's your culture.
I took an elbow to my head, which cracked my skull.
It is an American game.
The Brazilians don't like hearing that, though.
Are they the only ones that don't like that don't like that?
Actually, nobody likes that.
As we get ready for the men's World Cup this summer,
listen to American Football as part of the My Culturhausts podcast network,
available on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Call you later.
He answered it, y'all, he's too thorough.
I wasn't going to answer that.
She said, I didn't answer.
I thought that was going to interact, but she was wrong.
I thought that was being.
He's too thorough, though.
Like, he's like, fuck it.
No, for real.
Listen, this is the thing.
I didn't see you in your interviews and they didn't ask you some questions.
And your responses, they always be like real as responses.
I'm like, I fuck with that.
Yeah.
Because this is the thing.
Oh, you like that, huh?
No, I and do.
But however, this is the thing, though, because we're, okay, so me and Trop, we're twins and we're mixed with Black and Samoan, right?
So when we was growing up, obviously we've always been licensed in our whole life.
So people be trying to, like, comfort us a little bit.
you don't have people like say you look like this or you look like that.
Also, I seen when you was on poor minds and it was like, so how do you feel when they
be saying you look white or you white or you or you?
It was like, I look white.
Like, what can you do?
And I'm like, oh my God, I love that approach because it's like we do like we sprinkle
with a little sum, but we were always super defensive because our daddy is very pro-black.
So it was just, it was hard for us to juggle that.
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, I would like that at first, like, my brothers and sushi, you got to think they're all black.
They're all black.
Mm-hmm.
So they, like, want to take off of me and woo-woo.
So, like, it kind of made me feel like, oh, I got to take off myself.
Like, I got to defend my.
Because I got, oh, that I just got, like, like, it's being real.
Like, who the fuck just waking up someday worrying about me and what I really am?
Like, they just literally like, it's a white male.
Yeah.
Sometimes, so, like, you don't really bother.
Like, who are you to question?
Now that I'm a rapper, though, like, it do be kind of, like, annoying.
Because there's a lot going on.
Yeah, like, sometimes it'll be like, damn, I'm big of hell, like, in Atlanta or, like, in the South.
Like, I'd be real big, so everybody knows.
Yeah, or, like, even in the Midwest, but, like, if I go to, like, Seattle or, like, if a page post me in Seattle, it'll be, like.
They don't even know who I am.
They'd be, like, who the hell he did?
I'm gonna be honest with you, though.
The very first time I seen you, I said, why is this white boy saying a nigga like this?
I ain't gonna lie like every time like in person, though, like even when it kind of like rappers, peers, fans, like, I never ran into none of that.
Yeah, I bet.
I swear, I swear to God.
Is he lying, though?
I know up here like I moved light up here because like I fuck with them boy, but like they already know like in person like they just smear this shit.
Like, oh yeah, that ain't anything.
And this is the thing.
This is the thing.
Like, you could see a bitch or you could see a nigga in a picture.
You could see all that or whatever.
However, once you feel the energy, you feel the vibe, you feel the, or it hit different.
Yeah.
I don't rank into a couple of people that I could tell, like, they were hanging on the internet, but they fanned out in person.
Right.
Yeah.
It'd be like that.
Fuck them.
But they just be doing it really truthfully more than anything to attract a response.
That's how I'd be feeling.
Yeah.
I ain't never responded to nobody on the internet.
Oh, see, we do.
We be in the comments like
We don't anymore
Shit
This was last week
Who you say look ugly
Who are you talking about
We go in on the comments
What was a mermaid
It can't worry about that
It'd be hard though
It'd be hard though
But you can't like
You know what I'm saying
You gotta think like
I ain't doing nothing
What they like
Yeah
And that's the thing
It's like
Y'all kind of miserable
Like you're chronically
On the internet
And this is all you have to
Judging somebody off a clip
And you got to think
We choose
in to put somebody to have an opinion.
You're right.
So we can't be mad at their opinion,
even if it's someone on the hill, like,
making me rich.
Yeah.
That's true.
How did you get into rapping, though?
My partner, who I was telling y'all who died,
he made me rap.
I would come to the studio every day, like, having girls and, like.
He's just seen any.
Wait, I got a question.
Was you already having?
You already had everything.
Not at this time.
Okay, so when I first started trying to rap, he had the money.
Okay.
And he was wanting to push you.
He was really just like one of the niggas who had money but couldn't rap but wanted to rap.
But he's seen it in you.
Like were you a poet?
You were.
No, like he would just.
The demeanor at this point.
Y'all know those niggas who got money who want to rap but came.
You got the love.
You got it.
Yeah, he was on shit like, bro, you need to rap.
But some of them niggas, they'd be like, oh, you should do it.
You should do it.
You should rap.
And then they get in the booth and they're not hitting on that.
Yeah, and I, like, so he made me start rapping,
it wasn't really talking about nothing.
Like, I was a kid, like 17, 18.
Oh, wow.
And then, like, I just didn't care about it right no more.
And then I started having paper in the street for real.
Like, I built a street career in the wrong lane.
So the vision matched the energy.
Yeah, but, like, I did it in the wrong lane.
Like, I literally, like, started a family, built a home, like,
properties, started businesses, like.
Oh, nice.
Really like went in the wrong direction the wrong way.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
And eventually I got locked up.
I beat two cases, came home, turned up some more.
Then when I called two more cases,
and when I met my manager Monday,
and I was like, I got to try something with it.
We ought to do something different.
Two, three hundred thousand left.
And I was like, I just want to rap.
Like, let me see if this will work.
I put the money behind rap.
We went crazy.
Like, it was the other day.
I love that, but that's the thing, too, though.
like some people they might have the look they might have the everything that was going on
they have the aura but they don't have the talent right now that beat is artis so it's like for you
it was meant it was ordained yeah it was easy for me to do it talent plus one equal two it was
hard to lead them when they alone in the street yeah like i'm gonna lead us alone and i'm
focused but you got the voice and you got the flow you got the aura and you write your own
shit right yeah of course i do work with writers like at far as like ideas and
shit, but like, I have my shit
I write.
Who's like, who is
somebody you would really
like to have as a feature?
Probably two-pop.
Two-puff.
Come on.
You see what I'm saying?
You see what the fuck I'm saying?
This is what I was saying. I'm like,
every answer.
That would be a real digger response.
Let's go.
Come on.
Come on.
How does your brain work?
I mean too.
I'm sorry.
I'm just saying.
I know you got some verses laying around for sure.
And you're going to kill that shit.
You said I want it.
I'm buying it.
What I personally won't.
But like if I had to make a song right now, probably like I go get Trina.
Oh, she's coming here.
There we go.
She's coming here.
Okay.
Keep talking.
Keep talking.
That would go crazy.
I'd probably go get.
I'd be thinking crazy.
I ain't a lot.
Let's let's.
Let us go.
Let us in.
I'm trying to go ask like Michelle Obama to come talking about.
Oh, shit.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, yeah.
She's going to be like, we're about to.
She's going to.
She's going to be like, you can be anything that you want to be.
No, something like that.
That was creative.
That was cool.
What you want Michelle to say?
Keep going, black girl.
Dream big.
Like your friend.
She ain't.
Oh, Michelle Obama is not saying.
Michelle Obama is not saying.
It's like your friend, though.
No, she's not.
Okay, first lady.
I do got a question, though, because I do feel like you give, like, you, like, super duper control the traffic in your relationship.
So, like, if you...
Okay, go ahead.
So if you run into a little toxic little something, how do you deal with that?
What do you mean by control the traffic?
Like, you just give, like you said, I make my baby.
Mama, you run shit.
No, that's my shit.
That's my baggage.
I'm gonna control my baggage.
You run shit.
If I'm bringing baggage to the relationship, like, I need to handle that.
It's true.
But if you're talking.
If you bring it baggage, it won't be baggage.
As you, the fuck you should, because some niggas don't be having control of that.
Yeah, like, but I'm saying, like, a girl that don't just mean, like, I want her to live her life like she would have regularly lived it without me.
Like, if you have baggage, it won't touch your girl.
Hell, no.
But if you got a girl, what are y'all doing?
But if a girl being toxic,
do you like toxic or no?
And she's not emotionally intelligent
enough to know she's being toxic.
I'm not even talking to me.
But is the older you?
He's grown.
How old are you?
I'm 35.
35?
But question is, do you not like a little bit of toxicity?
I ain't going to lie.
Yeah.
Yeah, we know.
But I ain't going to lie.
Somebody I was just dealing with probably like recently.
I wasn't even dealing with them like.
I just really met them and answered their call a couple times.
Oh, Lord.

You know that.
You all hear that.

So you're going to let go your dad
So you had the shit that you went through
But once you made it in rap
Like how did that feel for like you and your family?
No, for real.
You know, how did you celebrate that?
It's different.
And when did it hit?

Like when did it really hit?
It ain't really hit for real.
Like to be honest
Like this shit don't hit different.

He might have been that.
This thing, though, like, I ain't gonna like I'm nominate for a BET award.
Period.
That kind of feel like, damn, this is a BET award.
Like a BET award.

You got to think, like, that's all day, every day.
