Nah, them Boy Scouts though, that's a weird ass hobby, bro. Yeah, what do they sell? I don't know, bro. Right knives. Was that cutco? Shout out to everybody who had a cutco interview. And it's like, hold on.

I was reading this thing, this is just a random, I was listening to this thing. It said the 40th richest people in America, white people in America, are richer than all the black people in America combined. Ain't that crazy? 40 motherfuckers is richer than all the black people in America combined. Ain't that crazy? 40 motherfuckers is richer than all the black people in America combined.

That makes sense. That shit crazy. That is crazy though. That was just a random fact I heard. I was just thinking like, damn. Yeah, that's. Niggas ain't got no money. Yeah.

We behind the A-ball like a bus. Yeah, well it's 40 people with more than. White people just got better resources though, bro. They just take all of them actually. I mean, it just happens though. They start off better, for sure. But I was just thinking that like 40 people, think we get all the niggas in one room,

we get all in one state, and it's 40 people just chilling on a farm. We know 40 people, like no, actually 40 people. It's 40 people with way more money. It's 40 people, like no, actually 40 people. 40 people would wait for me. It's 40 people that live the hindrance experience. Like it's like, you know what? We about to shake all this shit up.

Man, what? That's crazy. Shut shit down. I wonder what the richest one is though. Wonder what he worked for, she worked. I'm gonna celebrate Jeff Bezos in America. Jeff Bezos is the richest in America? I would imagine. They work for 250 something billion.

If there's somebody who does even as close that we don't know about, that's crazy too. Elon and Jeff go back and forth. Elon might be up on Jeff now. Elon is currently up right now. As of December, 2024. Yeah, Elon. What's he worth?

244. Bro. What do you do with that? What do you do with that type of capabilities, bro? I don't know. By Twitter. You're too powerful. I'm gonna be real.

You're too random ships to. I don't wanna be that powerful. All right, I'll ask y'all a question. Y'all wake up tomorrow a billionaire. What y'all on? A solid billionaire, you still can live cool. What you mean live cool? No, I'm saying like when you got 244 billion,

you can damn near bitch say something, I dare you. All right, 100 billion. I had a hundred billion dollars? Yeah, you work up to 100 billion. If I had a hundred million dollars. Right. What do you mean? No, it's game changing.

A hundred million dollars and like, somebody just gave me an extra hundred million dollars. What the fuck do y'all wanna do? I'm doing everything. But a billion dollars? Yeah, I probably pay everybody, I give everybody I know a million dollars. That's just the start off.

I only know about a hundred people. Yeah. Damn. So everybody a million around me, we all lit. Yeah, might as well. Yeah, I got 900 left. What the fuck? What am I gonna do with this money?

Knock yourself out. Yeah. Just a random fact. The richest black person in America is worth 11 billion. The 50th richest person in America, white person, non-black person, is worth 15.6 billion. The 50th richest white person. That's crazy.

Wow, bro. Yeah, I feel ya. Just to put things in perspective. But I'm saying though, Elon Musk, bro, you too powerful, bro. So I don't wanna be that powerful, bro. That come with a lot, bro. And then Jeff Bezos have to split his shit in half.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's still number two. Jeff really won there. Cause- Well, you got that much money. I don't like you no more. I'm shit. I'm shit. I'm shit. I'm shit. I'm shit. I'm shit. I'm shit. I'm shit. I'm shit. I'm shit.

I ain't gonna lie. She was 26. Yeah, see, my bitch is still up top. I can get her back. She still at the Epiphone. I can get her back. But if you got a hundred million, your wife wipe you down for 50, you are sick, bro.

You're different. Yeah, you're mad. It's different tears, bro. If I got 200 billion and my wife take a hundred billion, I'm like, fuck it, I'll make it back. Yeah, bro. I'll get it back in two years. Yeah.

Who cares? That ain't nothing, don't nothing. Man, what? I don't even know what I'd do with that type of money. Algris, I don't even know what to do. Like that type of money. Algorithms, I don't even know what it's like. I know everybody be rich. I might get everybody two million, just cause. Cause I'm gonna invest the money in something,

so I'm gonna get it back. Just for interest alone, putting 900 million in the, you could just say you put it in a bank. What? My bank at that point. Really? I could say you are the bank at that point. But I'm just saying, but like,

you're like, too many dollars, everybody gotta get out of my face. You get 4% interest on this, $900 million. I'm 900 million. What the fuck? They're not gonna be able to afford to pay you. They're gonna be like, sir,

you just owned everything, sorry. You just bought country, turn it up. I don't know what you wanna do with that 4%. Nah, for real, $2 million a piece, everybody gotta get out my face. Of course. No complaints. No complaints.

I ain't even say what I was gonna do for my mama and them. I don't either. That's just the niggas I know. Yeah, mama's gotta be straight. Pay off child support for the rest of your life, my nigga. Yeah. But my mama and them, that's a hell of a lifeline. That's a hell of a lifeline.

I'm gonna get my mama a number, 25 of these. If I'm on Tesla, give me my number under the table. Yeah. You talking to me about fucking bucks. Yeah. She can't take you to, you can't go to court, she can't take you to court though. Cause it's a gift, it's a gift.

Just to make sure it's cash. I don't need a money order or wire or nothing. Nah, I'll pick it up in increments if I need to. Yeah. Give a nigga shit in doubles. Yeah, that's cool. That's crazy. I need to. Yeah. Give a nigga shit in doubles. Yeah, that's cool. That's crazy. I need a picture of my teeth.

For the check. Oh, man. That's crazy. Listen, this morning, man, you brought up a very interesting topic at 5.20 in the morning. Let's revisit that, man. You had a nice conversation.

We started up. Here we go. What was it, you guys? We had a conversation. Oh niggas, don't forget it now. Let's talk. No, I'm saying, how we said it though. I hate pauses in this podcast.

How we said it though. So basically, let me know if I'm saying it correctly. Basically, it was just like, you know, a lot of college athletes we see, we talk about black men ending up with white women. It's just like a lot of these athletes, especially in college, when they ain't there, they're struggling to go through it, they end up having somebody who's pushing them through college and nine times out of 10, it's usually a white woman.

Yeah. It's just like, what are they supposed to do? Like when they get older, if they've been with this person for this long, are they supposed to abandon them to not go into a stereotype or are they supposed to be with the people who've been there with them? I mean, yeah, I think I've seen Dr. Umar talking about this too.

But the point I was making is that a lot of high school kids, they start in high school because a lot of the good athletes or the better players in high school, college, whatever you're going on, they went to prep schools. And not too many inner city kids, black kids go to prep schools, right? You might find a couple of black kids at a prep school,

but let's just use Bronnie as an example. He go to Sierra Canyon where it's usually pretty, pretty well off people that go to that school, right? I mean, we just looked at the numbers. Yeah, they kids definitely gonna see a kid. Yeah, it ain't too many black people going to that school or, you know what I mean? So what you around is what you gonna track.

Like, he around that, that's what he's gonna end up being around and fucking with. I don't know. Then you go to college, you go to a PWI. That's all that's there. So you gonna mess with what you around. you go to a PWI, that's all that's there. So you gonna mess with what you around. I mean, I think some are better, are top athletes. It's hard to tell them to go to HBCU

just because of the amenities. Like, I'm gonna go to, I'm gonna turn down Alabama for like Georgia State. I mean, Jackson State. And then you go to Alabama and Jackson State and you see what's going on. It's like, I can't turn down $2 million in NIL that come to Jackson State, fam.

Like I can't do it, you know what I mean? Yeah. So it's just around what they're around. I get it. Like if you grew up in that environment, it's easy for us to say, we went to public school. Yep. I seen my cousins, I seen black people all day,

every day, so my high school girlfriend was black. You know what I mean? That's what I was used to, I'm being around minorities. So it ain't nothing for me to go to college and be like, I ain't never seen white people. When I went to Wake Forest, it was rare for me to see white people like that here. You know what I mean?

We had a couple that went to Pike, but it wasn't like that. So when I got to Wake Forest, I was almost uncomfortable. Like, oh shoot, like I don't wanna say nothing too wrong. So I was even scared to really engage in conversation with them. But it's different when you grew up going to high school, that's all you know. It's gonna be easy, you're gonna fit right in, you're gonna put your spurs on, you're gonna go crazy. Yeah, you're saying too many black people went to white forests.

I saw the athletes. But Bronny, I see what you was saying. That's a different case though. I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, You gonna go crazy. Yeah, you're saying too many black people who went to white force outside of athletes. But Bronny, I see what you was saying. That's a different case though.

There was a Bronny Yass with that prom pic. Yeah, they like niggas. But who was he supposed to go? I mean, he could go with some famous girls though. Why you go to one with, I don't know, who's got a famous daughter? But your house is black black. Your house is black, bro.

I get the school that you go to, but your crib is black, bro. Yeah, but you ain't at, who? Yeah, your mama black, your auntie, your mama friends is black. Your mama is the fist on the end of the cone, bro. Yeah, but where I go to school at, when I'm at school, you know what you do when you at school. I know where I learn everything.

Now I'm brought here, I can't even go nowhere outside of school because I'm so famous. I gotta hang out with other people famous kids. Yeah, and who famous is me? Tom Brady. I mean, love who you love, but I don't know, bro. It's just different. I think the household plays a big part

in the outside of the school. Maybe that's the situation I agree with. It's also funny, they black, how we get so many mixed kids in the NBA, we're like all these AU kids is mixed now, they be saying all that. I'm like, well, you know, shit. Well, it's a lot of facts.

All these famous athletes went to these. Well, before, before, before, before, before, before, before, before, before, before- See, everything had options. Yeah. There's 50% white people. There's 32% black people.

13% Asian. So how you know the black, them black ones is probably, let's keep it real. They probably super smart. They probably nothing. They ain't fucking with brownie. Yeah, they probably nothing, nah. You probably ain't they vibe, dude.

The nerd, like, they ain't, uh, uh-huh. I don ain't they vibe. The nerd like, I don't know, bro. I just feel like 32% is a lot of black people at this school. It is. But you gotta think the black. Thank God for OTE. That's why they put it in the manner.

The black, the black girls, like usually not, this is like no shade to black girls, but they be locked in when they go to prep schools. Like they there like, they be them to the top of the class. Okay, so what's another reason why a brother dates a white woman in college though? Because they take care of them. That's what Dr. Umar said.

But they do look out though. When I was at Wake Forest, bro, they did look out.. When I was waiting for it, they did look out. Shout to Rick Fox. And it was crazy. And I'm saying it like they used to be like, they weren't even trying to holler at us. They just be like, y'all need something. Like not going to do it.

Like we about to go to the grocery store. Y'all need something. I'm like, yeah, actually I do. Can you get this? I'll write a list. It's $800 for shit. Okay. They walk in there, they get their hum I'll write a list. It's $800 worth of shit. Okay. They'll walk you there.

They'll give you their hummers and go get it. The black girls, Demner, hated that I played basketball. Like you think you're the shit? Well, she wasn't asking you. Fatima wasn't asking you. Hell no. They was Demner like. She was like, I'm trying to graduate.

I don't give a damn about you. Yeah, like they Demner was like more like y'all the dumb jocks, like, you know what I mean? They wasn't really supporting the basketball team like that. They didn't really care about that shit. They was there for a reason. And I respected that though. That did. But if you go to a, man, when you go to the games

and you see the alumni, you don't really, unless like HBCU, you'll see the black people representing their school. Sure. Where you go? If you went to Auburn, you don't really see no niggas out there at the fucking barbecue. Like, there don't be too many black people there.

I only want them to really represent that school, be like the retired football players and shit like that. Yeah, those PWIs, it's a different situation. Even in small instance, at Butler, boy. We can count the black people at Butler. All right, y'all got a point. What I feel like, if you at a school and there's a black school near

and you come from a black family, go get one of them young ladies, bro, from an A&T or something, bro. It's hard to venture out, though. Because you're not programmed to date a white bro. It's hard to venture out though. Because you don't, you're not programmed to date a white woman. It's nothing wrong, you know, my family is mixed up, but it's nothing wrong with like stepping off campus

and tapping in. You gotta think about, say you come. Cause motherfucking Ashley probably down the street. Say you coming from. With that same $800 that Sandy got. Nah, hell nah.

So, Sandy give you $800 worth of snacks. But for teaming them down the street, making fried chicken, macaroni, yams. Yeah, I fuck with that. I'm pulling up. But you also gotta think, when you go outside of campus, you gotta venture off and figure it out. A lot of these kids are going to college for one year,

two years, football players, three at max sheltered. Yeah, they don't really, they've been sheltered their whole time. You gotta be on campus, you gotta practice this and this. You just gonna be close to what you close to. Like when we was at Wake Forest, I ventured out just cause I was with a dude that was from the city.

And he like, no, we gotta go over there. It'd be lit over there. And I'm like, okay, but nobody else on my team ventured out. Like the rest of the team, they had dated white girls. Like, what you want? Like I'm like, okay, I'ma venture out. They got so bad, I had my high school girlfriend

come away for us, cause I can't do it, you know what I mean? So it's just like, it's what you around. I mean, Shelvin, he went, they went to, you know, Butler, predominantly white, and it was all white. I could say, well, no damn predominant. You know what I mean? But I'm just saying like it, you kind of like what you like though.

I'm saying he found, his wife went to Butler, right? Yeah. So I mean, he found the one black girl on campus and locked it. That was me. Oh, there she goes. And every other nigga was hollering at her. He was a senior, he was a freshman.

Every nigga on the campus tried to holler at this same black girl. I'm just saying bro, to me, I just feel like, I don't know bro, you got summer, like you don't have to just. But the whole point of conversation. Even our age though, like NIL is brand new. When we was growing up, I feel like, like you said,

y'all had to stay, you know, within range of the other white women cool, but it was niggas that probably went across the street, bro, and tapped in on the hood. There's an exception to every rule. I'm saying majority of the people stayed close to campus. You're like, I didn't stay on campus. I mean, I stayed on campus, but I ventured out.

I went to North Carolina A&T, Central. I went to Winsor & Salem State. I went to all them schools. So I seen it. White women see the potential. I ain't saying that. I'm just saying like- That's what Dr. Kumar said.

They could, I don't know, I don't care. I mean, I just think they were, they were like, they were in college having fun. Like, I'm like funny as hell. They was in college having fun. I think when black people, when we go to school, if it's not a HBCU, I don't, I think we take the fun out of school.

We like be so serious and locked in, like what we doing? Like, I ain't here to think we take the fun out of school. We like be so serious and locked in. Like what we doing? Like I ain't here to be fucking around with you and make, I ain't, I don't care about the football game. I don't care about the best football team. Did you hear that, this Mike just said, bro? How many, how down we are right now? Hey, like we locked in.

Yeah, we might be here on financial scholarship, might be here for my grades, but I gotta stay locked in. The point y'all raised earlier, all right, flip side of this, y'all parents, if y'all raised earlier, all right, flip side of this, y'all parents, if y'all daughter's down in college taking care of a football player and she's supposed to get her education, you're pissed. Hell no, you ain't supposed to be

taking care of no nigger right now. That's a fact, I'll be on the ass. See the vibes. Let love. See the vibes. Let my daughter have a daughter, I go to school and she, yeah. Well, dad, can you send me $500 for what?

Well, I wanted to take John out. John, fucking John. He plays on the football team. Oh, fuck him. He must be sad because he ain't got no NIL. Fuck him. That's brand new though, bro. I'm just saying, bro.

That did, I'm like. But Cindy dad like, oh, he's starting to let tackle. I got you, need a thousand. And that's where shit get dicey. Bro, that's why I'm shitty, I didn't get that real college experience. Nah, it ain't even that, it's just like, like think about it.

I don't know if you can look up the list, bro, but people who was paying for their kids to go to school. Yeah. You remember that year, they had that scandal where people was paying $100,000 for their kids to go to certain schools and shit. I bet you don't see no niggas on there. Probably rare.

We just trying to make sure we get through there without being super in debt. Now black people don't want to pay for their kids in school. I'm just saying, why you there? Look, look here. If I went to Alabama and I don't know how close Alabama A&M is probably farther than the bitch. But I am going to make my way to BET Weekend.

I'm gonna find me a shorty. You're gonna lock in. I'm locking in, bro. I feel you, I'm not saying anything. Everybody that goes to school ain't poor. I'm not defending why you wouldn't do it or why they wouldn't. I'm just telling you how this happened. And then people wonder, oh, people are always like,

black people, athletes be dating outside of their race all the time. And it's like, well, yeah, I want them to, yeah, I'll say they some ho-ass niggas but they just start leaving them, right? Like the shoes on the other foot. I've been dating her since I was a junior in high school. Now I'm making it to the league and it's like,

nah, I don't fuck with her no more. He would be shitty, like we'd be fucked up. Now, if he dated a black girl, it's like, and then this girl from white. And then we got to the crib, and this, I feel you. So long. You date a black girl all through, not you, just in general. And then you just come home with a white woman.

Record scratch. It's kind of like. For me, because my wife is not, she's a minority, but she's not black. Yeah, I dated all types of races. So don't worry about me. I don't fit this description. Yeah, you, you LeBar Oldham. You got an all around game. I don't fit this description. Yeah. Anybody can. Yeah, you, you Lamar Alder, you got an all around game.

Wait, Lamar? I didn't do crack, but. You got an Alder Corp, man. Shoe pass dribble. I'm just saying, like, but. Defend, I just need to eat. Talk about this morning, cause I don't know how you guys started on that this morning,

but that was a fun time. It was an interesting topic. I think it was cause somebody was talking about Saquon, right? Yeah. I mean, they who you love, I'm just saying, like I said, for real, love who you love, we really don't give a fuck.

No, I don't give a fuck. I just don't think you have to be, oh my God, I go to Florida and it's nothing but bunnies. No, nigga. Yeah, you, I mean, you can, it's probably black women on that campus. Real players prosper, bro. Yeah, you damn I mean, you got, it's probably black women on that. Real players prosper, bro. You didn't, but I'm just saying like.

Yeah, for some of the more. It's like when you, oh, go ahead. No, go ahead. For some of the more sheltered people, I understand what you're saying. It's just like, they remove from that stuff. But for other regular people, bro, you gonna find what you like, regardless of what it is.

So if that's what you like, you gonna find that shit. I put it like this. Oh, Instagram girl. Most likely she only gone date famous or people with money. Okay. That's the only people that's gonna approach her. Okay. Like, right?

So if you're at campus, that's just what it is. That's what you around. That's what you're gonna see. Yeah, that's where I grew up. That's where I grew up. Like I told you, I never, like I remember I got the way for us. I'd never really seen white girls at Pike. We didn't see them.

You know what I mean? So when I got to school and these dudes is describing me, like she's bad. I'm like, my nigga, like she bad? They like, yeah, I'm like, for real? But then I started getting around it for a year. I'm like, she damn near decent. After a while, like she cool.

You know what I mean? Like, yo. Yeah, you start. I don't know, y'all. I'm like, she damn near decent. After a while, like she cool. You know what I mean? Like, yo. Yeah, you start. I don't know, y'all. I don't know. I'm telling you. I feel like if I like steak and I go to a school. It's quiet for me.

That is a vegetarian school, I'm gonna be a vegetarian while I'm at the school. I'm gonna eat the food that's at the school. That's what I'm saying. I like steak. Yeah. So I don't get my steak after school. I'm not saying you not.

They seem to stay vegetarian. Cause that vegetarian shit. Shit, well. You said that's third far free? Yeah. Well damn. You gonna let me drive to him? I ain't had that motherfucker.

I am driving. I'm driving the Saturn. That she drove from Mississippi to LA. I am driving this Saturday. They don't even make them cars anymore, that's so crazy. I need that fat ass, I need that good meal, I need just that home. I wanna go, listen, when niggas is on break for college,

you go to your girl's family. If y'all really locked in, bro, I love white people. I got white people in my family, I swear to God, but I wanna go kick it with Uncle Em. But what about they going to the Hamptons and you going to, you going back to the block. I'm going to the block. It was like, yeah, we got a $10 million house

in the mansions that we wanted to invite you to. And you like, or you go back to the block. Things be like. Well, in college. Yeah, or you go back to the block. Things be like, and yeah, Tom Brady might be up there. Fuck. That's in your vegetarian. What I'm saying though, well in college I don't know what I really want to be in life.

So, I'm a double-baser. I'm talking shit. But then it just like, double-baser's funny as fuck. That's why I never fought like when girls, like Instagram girls and all that shit, cause that's what will go after you. I'm just thinking in the future though,

like locking in like I said, whatever, but while I'm in college bro, I am pulling up with the gang bro. I think it might be different now, cause now people got NIL, you can damn near. Oh for sure now. You see like Travis Hunter, that is a girl living with him from high school.

You can bring people along. You can do other shit. They're honest, it's thousandaires, them are millionaires. They can import, export a million. Yeah, they got, they vibes is all different now. So it'd probably be less of that now. If I get, you know,

I don't think I'm bringing the high school shorter to college. Now I'm saying they could DM. I mean, they say he was DMing shorty. Whatever, now you can pull up with Instagram girls, whatever you wanna do now. That'd be crazy, ain't nobody do that shit. What?

Ain't nobody had Bernice Burgos on campus with them yet. They at least they do that. Hey, that's the new vibe. Hey, what are you young boys? Now listen, if they kill Dre for Jellie Greene, and we see Bernice Burgos at what, Colorado next year? for J.L.I. Greene, and we see Bernie's Burgos, at Colorado next year, push the button, bro. He elite, whoever he is. I vibe it.

Book it if I just be sidelined, I'm booking you to be to my supporters, fire. That's hard. Give an 18 year old a million dollars, bro. Come on, man. What it does to an 18 year old, it's when you get to NBA, so. For sure. For sure.

For sure. Did y'all see the young lady who suing the ride chair because she couldn't fit in the car? I ain't laughing, but I'm laughing. I'm laughing. Big dank. Is she a rapper? Yes.

She trying to hit a lick. I know Lil' Dank. Well nah, this ain't Lil' Dank. Nah, this is Big Piff. Lil' Dank is big, big, big, big piff. Little, little dank. You don't know, baby. He be spittin' that's a little nigga that look like Jay-Z. Well, look at that screen right there.

Who do? This is his cousin. That ain't Jay-Z at all. It's his big cousin. I always had a problem with that. Yeah, Carl Jr. burger, I wanted a piece of it. We got the wrap, and that's how it happened. Well, girls would have no bra, they titties just be.

I don't even say that. how it happened. Well, girls would have no bra, they titties just be. I don't even say that. He's talking about this in glory in particular, not all women. See you soon, Rock Ships Service. Which one is left correct? If you standing up and your titties sit on your chest like you laying down, that is crazy. Like the Rick Ross picture.

But how can you sue me though? Cause I just said, hey bro, I don't think you gonna, I don't think you gonna fit my ride. He got fired. I'm in the car, bro. I drive. I'm just talking to your shit. Let me in, I pay for this.

But nigga, I can cancel your ride. I ain't wait requirement. But we don't, when we go out of town, we get an XL black truck, right? We don't go get a sedan. Yeah. Because we want to be comfortable, bro. But if I tell you like, it's my wish.

It's just me, it's for black men. Now we got Malcolm. But Malcolm ain't black. We don't know yet. What you looking at for? Well, that's each family love. A little dandy boy. That nigga is just gonna be like skinny and black now.

That's crazy. We got four black guys in Malcolm. No, I'm not. No, I'm saying now we got black. Now we got Malcolm. No, I'm saying now we got Malcolm. Oh, so that was for the... I was like, this nigga's black.

I mean, if you look at it, you can probably... Oh, I can... I can pass for a Dominican. Man, this nigga move right. Now, but... Now, girls be saying that. This nigga's probably put a poppy voice on, too. Girls do be saying that.

They can't hear you, nigga. Oh, but I can tell you nigga, if you stink get out of my car. Yeah bro, cause that's an odor. Not cause I'm fat. Nigga, you- If you can't fit in my car, how are we going to leave? Like nigga, you want me to move my seat?

Like I can't move it. Usually when people order nigga, like Uber's damn near one size fits all. Yeah, but like you don't fit. You look good, I'm by myself. Yeah, but like you don't fit this size. I'm by myself. Yeah, but I'm trying to tell you, the way my car is set up, my front seat don't move up.

First of all. He said his tires was tired. Look at y'all laughing. Y'all always trying to get this. Your tires is tired. He said what I'm trying to say is my tires were tired. He's out of pocket, man. I didn't know he said that. Suit him, because he trying to make it,'m trying to say is my tires. I'm tired. He's out of pocket. I didn't know he said that.

So do. Because he trying to make it. He trying to joke. He trying to roast you. Nah, I didn't know he was on that. We don't get in trouble for that. Nah, she about to turn up. And that's why he got fired.

Yeah, get your ass. So shout out to Big Nank. Get all your money. Milk that nigga for everything. I agree with that because the dude could have just canceled. He could have canceled. Exactly, bro. He trying to roast her. He had a whole back and forth with her. I agree with that because she could have just canceled. Exactly. He trying to roll through.

Did he have a camera? Big day. Come on. Your story. Big day. So the shit out of him. But I got a right to roast you if you put the camera on me. Yeah, but outside of Big Dank.

I'm gonna give you a show. Outside of Big Dank, y'all can't discriminate against people's weight when they getting in your car and they orders your car to pull up. Yeah, but if I really feel like you can't fit in my car, like I ain't about to be moving. I have to know what kind of car this nigga pulled up in.

He probably had a car. It was a sedan. Oh, damn. She can get in a sedan, bro. The nigga said it's tires, it's tires. 400 pound life, whatever that shit called. They get, when they go, yeah, when they go to their doctor's appointment, bro,

they be getting in cars sometimes, bro. But I'm saying, he did not pull up in an ID. Six Capris. He'd be in the back of like trucks and shit, though. Listen. Car. Vesal. So you really telling me,

I'm too busy getting her car? Vesal black. Oh damn, they gonna play it all day. Damn. They played it this morning. That is kind of fucked up. Discrimination is crazy. The way she said that, like, that's fucked up.

I didn't know that he said that my tires are gonna tire. That's insane. He's out of pocket for that. That's why he got fired. Cause I was like, that was kind of quick, but yeah, he was on bullshit. But like you said, you put a camera out, get the people to show.

You're out of pocket. I'm saying that's how I go. You know that's what people do. I feel like you should have just ordered a Uber XL though. I've seen them big day. Everybody can't afford that mic. She can. It'd be a gap, bro.

Yeah, however, this ain't even funny, but y'all said 600 pound life, so it is funny. You ever seen the one where the couple went, where they was cousins or something? And the nigga said, damn! All right, do what you're supposed to do. This nigga fat talking about damn. Nigga, you're too big ass.

Nah, nigga, you bigger than me. That's why he was like, wait a minute. I got a bigger skin. That nigga said, damn. Fuck you, I was mad, damn. Fuck you. I was mad for her. What the fuck you damn it for? You ain't the smartest.

We just go jone on each other all day. We ain't the best man with it, bro. When I seen a nigga making breakfast on the bed, I turned that shit off. Yeah, bro. When you making your breakfast in your bed, bro. There's no reason for you to have a citrus cord on top of your bed, bro.

Bro, I'm a gritter, bro. I swear to God he's on the griddle. No, you can't cook from your beard. You eat in the bed, so you're not cooking in your beard. I told you I would. The nigga said, you know how the niggas be doing a reaction, like reacting to the shit of the videos. Nigga was like, yup, let me get my eggs.

And dude was like, yeah, just get two. Just get two. And nigga said, yup, a 12 pack. I said, that's why I had to turn it off. I said, a 12 pack of eggs. It's not service size, bro. Come on, bro. We gotta move on though, man.

Get well soon, man. Get your money, big night. For sure. 600 pound, they need to take that shit off TV. Yeah. But, and they never will, bro. That shit ain't cool, man. That's crazy.

I wanna ask, how y'all felt about Mackleclung. Him being a rising star again for like the eighth year. Is that fair? Or are you just relying upon him right now? He's a quote unquote rising star again. He's doing a duck contest but he's a rising star again. And he ain't like year four? This is maybe his second or third duck contest.

No way he's playing in that game. He's not playing in that game but he's in the contest. I was about to say, there's No way he's playing in that game. He's not playing in that game, but he's in the contest. Oh, I was about to say, there's no way he's playing in that game, bro. He go rise and shine. TLC, he was gonna beat the rookies off of a challenge. He not? No.

Oh, I thought you were saying. He's in the dunk contest. Oh, I thought you were saying he was in the rising stars game. The dunk contest so trash, they need to let the YouTubers do it. Why? Why are we relying upon MacBook Club to save All-Star Wicked in the dunk contest, bro?

Cause he really be putting on a show, bro. He defending champ though. I'm not even mad at him cause he taking advantage of opportunity. Turn up. His name is Mack, ain't he? Mack McClellan. Yeah, I fuck with Mack.

He got signed off there too. He did? Yeah, Philly, he actually can hoop though. Yeah. I ain't gonna lie to y'all. Yeah. I think he would have landed on Philly right now too. He was at Georgetown doing his thing.

But nah, I hate the dunk contest. I don't watch that at all. I hate how bad they rule all start weekend. Yeah, it's not a... But shout out to Mac, man. Keep getting that check. I know he probably get like 50, 60,000 for that. Yeah, run it up.

I ain't mad nobody's gonna manage. Maybe more than that when it dunk contest. I don't even know how much it is. But them saying he was playing in that game is out of pocket. Nah, yeah, that's very out of pocket. It rhymes in Star Wars, my fifth year in the NBA, bro. That was wild.

100,000 when he win. Ah, yeah, he need that. Ah, yeah, run it up. I wanted it like that for the all categories. Yeah, that's why the off-stor game be weak. It ain't enough money. People don't care. You see how they play in that end season tournament?

Yeah, but I just think man, go back to the 90s bro, go back to the early 2000s man, it wasn't about that man. But the intensity, just people wanting to play? Yeah bro, I told you I'll miss Kobe for that bro, for real. But who you think was set to tone for that now? Cause I don't know. The young guys bro, Ed, Jai, Jason Jason's paid on who was the last superstar that participated? Excuse me. Nobody super star. Pardon me last white Howard

Who after him? Yeah, probably the white. How are the last superstar? The last really really good contest was exactly me Aaron Gordon. Yeah, that was the best but a superstar probably the white Howard that was the best for a superstar probably the White House.

Blake Griffin too though. He wasn't a superstar at that time. Blake Griffin too though. He wasn't a superstar at that time. He was young. He was already his first year.

Oh, when Blake jumped over the key? Nah, he was, he was. He was him though. He wasn't a superstar. I'm not saying he was a big, but he was, he was a. Like when the White did it, the White was like the best in the league center, like all star. Blake Griffin was doing that shit bro.

He was the premier PF in the league. Yeah, because we was excited. I mean Griffin was doing that shit, bro. He was the premier PF in the league. Yeah, so we was excited. I mean, no, say it to Dwight. He was the biggest superstar. Off the A, I agree. Yeah, he was like number one in all-star votes and shit like that. Oh yeah, he was the biggest.

But people was definitely excited to see Blake. Oh yeah, we was, because we knew he was a star. Like we knew he had a crazy bounce. We knew all that shit, but, and I ain't gonna lie, this dunk contest was kind of shaky too. Yeah, the jump off the key is a little iffy, but we gonna I ain't gonna lie, this dunk contest was kinda shaky too. Yeah, the jump off the key is a little iffy, but we gonna respect it, cause it's like, yeah, but whatever.

Yeah, I don't remember no other. It's exactly the same situation. I ain't been to- They start putting young guys in it though. Yeah. I mean, I don't mind, who's in it just as long as they do it, like, well, it'd just be like, you get opportunity,

it'd just be lackluster. Donovan Mitchell in 2018. He was a young guy. Yeah. After they did that. I don't know what he did. Team Dunk contest shit. I was done with that. We still go watch it every year

cause it is what it is. I think who won it there, your Dane Willard? Yeah, it was some weird ass team, but I don't know man. That's terrible. All Star weekend used to be like something we looked forward to. Now it's just like, all right, let's get through this.

We can get to the rest of the season. Pretty much. That's terrible. I see a boy trying to make the quarters go to 10 minutes now. Yeah. October. Yeah. To be with the rest of the world.

Y'all think that's trash or? I like the NBA. I feel like that made the NBA so different. Like that was the difference between college and the NBA, I feel like that made the NBA so different. Like that was the difference between college and the NBA. Like you played 12 minute quarters, the game was longer. It just felt different. Now if you go 10 minute quarters, I feel like college basketball, 20 minute half.

It's the same thing. Yeah, it just wasn't. It made the NBA different. Yeah, it's like he's trying to cut corners. He's like, yeah, I don't want to get back any of this broadcast money, but I'm going to find a way to try to make y'all play less. So, yeah, I'm going to save two minutes off each quarter. Eight times, X amount of minutes you're not playing now.

It's like, OK, well, if I was wouldn't so greedy and they had a smaller season, then you wouldn't have to have this problem about the lackluster, quote unquote, the ratings. So you all pick less games over less minutes. Yes, ideally. As much. I want everybody to get that money. Yeah, I was gonna say I don't want to take away my money from a consumer standpoint.

If you're telling me I'm gonna get 82 games of maybe 40 for real ones. All right, make this shit 60. But again, the money behind it, I know it's never gonna happen. I understand why, but I'd rather have less games. It means they're more meaningful. So it means it's gonna be more competitive. Yeah. 82, you know, you never gonna happen to understand why, but I'd rather have less games. It means they more meaningful. So it means it's gonna be more competitive. Yeah. 82, you know you're gonna slack off.

And by the time you said your team's had for the next three or four months, then you're in off season. Yeah, they fucking with the NBA way too much, bro. Yeah. Too many changes, bro. Look at that shit, the OG way. There are things that they could do to improve it.

I don't think that anybody was complaining about how long the game was. Y'all think it's time to release that high school rule? Yeah, you gotta let these kids go out of high school. Bring energy back. That's what's messing up the league. Like you getting guys, they don't, it's messing up college too.

Nobody cares to go to college for one year. I mean, they getting money, but I'ma be, I'ma just go to the highest bidder like, dude, BYU. Come on, man, BYU gonna be lit for one year. He probably gonna struggle, cause he gonna get double teamed to all this shit. It ain't gonna be looking how it's supposed to look. It ain't gonna mess up his draft stock

cause he just way too popular of a player right now. But it could potentially hurt him. Like, like Rutgers are sad. They just so good, like potentially because he's just way too popular of a player right now. But it could potentially hurt him. Like, Rutgers are sad. They just so good, like potentially, they could be really good, both of them players. We don't really, it ain't fucking with their draft stock. But it's some guys that probably thought

they were gonna be one and done. They done went to college and it fucked them up. And that one turned into four. Like a bunch of them Arkansas kids. Woo. You right bro. Shit. Some of them went out of high school. DJ Wagner out of high school.

Top five pick. He not gonna get drafted. That's crazy. So some of them rules, they hurt people. Cause college ain't the NBA. It's a totally different game. Some of them players gonna be way better in the NBA than they are in college.

Like AJ, DeBance, whatever, I'm telling you, he gonna be better in the NBA because of style play. You get the ISO, you can't sit in the lane, you can't do that. You don't really double team in the NBA. So you think you gonna see a lot of that in college? Yeah, that's why Ace's baby look like that sometimes. We be like, he cold, but it's like,

you start seeing chink in arm, you be like, well, he can't do this. Well, that don't look that good. You start criticizing shit that you didn't see, cause at AAU, everybody play man to man. High school, you got dudes, he went to a public high school, they good, but you got dudes that ain't about to go play

basketball, you got football players playing, you got soccer players on the team. So the competition obviously is a little down, but you ain't nobody trapping double teaming him. He look crazy. Like you said, getting drafted, he going to somewhere they gonna develop him and he's gonna figure out they got now you just getting criticized every week

because now you supposed to be hot shit. You supposed to be out here averaging 30. You supposed to be winning games. And that's an unreal expectation for a kid to have in college because college is more about the coach than it is the player. Yeah, and you got 24, 25 year olds playing. They've been in college for six years. Strong as an ox.

And you, your first year, you ain't really play against no men. These grown ass men. And then you supposed to come and kill and save it. Which is like, if you went to the league, you'd be playing grown man, but you get to develop. Like your whole day is based off of basketball. Like everything you do, you wake up in the morning,

the lift weights, this and this, you train, and you learn to develop into an NBA player, basketball player, but you got time. Nobody expects a rookie to come take over the league. Only Bron had them kind of expectations and he only averaged 25 and five. And I shouldn't say only because of the great numbers, but we ain't expect that much from Bron.

Like we thought he was gonna be good. He did what he was supposed to. But by year two and three, we like, all right, it's time. You know what I mean? College, shit, they expect him to be the guy, lead us to a championship. And that ain't just, that ain't gonna happen. So if you can go to Miami and be the man,

or go to Kentucky with four other dogs, what are you gonna do? It depends who gave me the most money. Why I go to Kentucky, and I only got a million dollars, but Miami wanna give me eight million dollars, shit, if I'm gonna be a number one pick anyway, I'm gonna go with the money.

What if you only get a million from both? Well. You wanna win a championship, or you wanna get average 30? Shit, if I'm trying to get to the league, I gotta get the FGJs up. You're like, you're already a top three player in the country. Like, if I'm like a Boozer twin,

I'm number one player in the country, I'm gonna do. Like, I'm gonna go to a system that's gonna make me look good. I'm gonna play with some other quality players. I'm on TV every week. I'm on TV, and the pressure ain't all on me, but it's gonna be on me because everybody wanna see me, but I know I got some other McDonald's guys and some talented players around me

that's gonna make it a little easier. Yeah. I'll probably go that route. But AJ, 7 million, BYU, everybody know like it's going to be rough for him over there. But he got paid. Turned up. You got an excuse.

Look who I'm playing with. What about if he was a quarterback? What you mean? I'm going to. What about if you was a quarterback? What you mean? I'm going to wear all the money. Look, nigga, this isn't simple. Same money though. Football different. I'm going to Ohio State.

I'm going to Ohio State. So you won a championship in college football. Yeah, cause I got to stay three years anyway. That's fair. Okay. Yeah, football, you got to get that money. Cause you know, that's different. That's you were hit away Yeah, in football you gotta get that money because you know that's different. That's, you were hit away from not playing no more.

I'm just saying if the money is the same. Yeah, I'm gonna go to Ohio State though. Know your yards, yo, everything. Whatever position you play you're gonna be the best at. Yeah, I'm gonna go to Ohio State. I'm gonna go show, be on TV every day. Play with the best players. Why not? Speaking of college, do we feel like it's coming

to the end for Kalapari? Yeah, he done. And I love Coach Cal, but it's just, what he had, his formula was meant for kids to go out of high school, right? And he was a guy that could get, when they put the one and done rule in, when it wasn't all this portal shit,

he was the, he had the blueprint when they put the one and done rule in, when it wasn't all this portal shit, he had the blueprint. I'm gonna recruit you the best. I got Kentucky behind me, so when you leave, I can pay you when you leave. Like, you at Kentucky, I can get you to do a signing for $100,000 as soon as you enter your name in the draft. So I can't pay you when you get here.

But when you leave, I got you. It held weight back then. Now I don't hold no weight. Damn. Like Coach Cal, I got five mil for you. All right, BYU, I got seven mil. But you can play for me. Man, fuck you. Yeah, countries don't have no pool no more.

It's all about the money. Here Rick Barnes, he said, hey you do it, we pay you, you do this right? That's how they feeling now. But I do say that's a downside too, because if you go somewhere you don't kill, coach could sit you down and fuck up your money. Yeah, and that's what Coach Kyle will do.

Like, shit, so I'm gonna go somewhere, like AJ, where you can't afford to sit me down. Yeah, I'm forcing your hand. I wish you would sit me, alumni will kill you. We pay AJ to play. You gonna, they'll fire the coach at BYU if he didn't play him. Arkansas, Coach Kyle.

Yeah, when you're playing, when you give one person $7 million, that's a, yeah, that's a different, that's a rare case though, bro. At Arkansas, Coach Cal can be like, he wasn't worth it. Like, he played, you know what I mean? He the school, I mean, not literally, but. Nah, damn near though. Yeah, like, people know Coach Cal

for Kentucky and Arkansas now. I think that's a good idea though. AJ, you can't, AJ is on the hornets. You can't do that. But Coach Cal for sure bro. I think that's gonna help the kids though, play harder. Yeah, I mean. There's way more kids making that type of money

than AJ DeVanza. Yeah, and they deserve it. That right part too, I know the crazy part is you look at some of these alumni base, back when they was paying them under the table, they'd be like, man, he sucks, we do X, Y, Z for him. Now they putting dollars on that. We pay him two million dollars, is this how he pay?

That shit is wicked. I wouldn't give a fuck though. They professionals now. The only thing bad about that is they don't got contracts, I mean some of them might, but they don't got contracts like the league, like you signed a two year deal, so you gonna get a million this year and a million next year.

I think some football players got it like that. But basketball is like a one year contract. So you got one million this year or whatever it is, 300,000. Next year, your ass might be, yeah, your ass might be down to 40,000 at IUPUI. It's like, damn. Hey listen, I know they ain't got an I.O.

Hell no. They ain't giving out fruit cups over there for the players to pull up. Who they got? Remember they had the, they had the pull ups and tryouts year before last. Cause I had you active student pull up. Yeah, I'm good.

They what? Who didn't get no one fucking scholarship? Who was we saying? They wasn't offering Rashid or nobody no scholarship. They wasn't offering nobody from that team. All these niggas is hoopin'. Killers. Getting 300,000.

They hold starting five, could have played the IEPY that next year. Damn what? It's crazy. It wasn't the IEPY that next year. Damn what? It's crazy. Give us some IEPY man. I know they're on a new regime. We ain't gonna put no smut on them. But the whole regime.

Yeah, boy. The open tryouts is crazy work. It was bugging. Damn, man. Good one, son. What else going on in the world? I wanted to ask you, you brought up a point earlier in the conversation. You talked about like the regime. just from people who don't understand,

what's your average day like as an NBA player? Like what's your day to day like, not a game day, or actually we'll start with a game day. What were you afraid to do? Game day, you gotta shoot around. So usually if you were at home, you'll shoot around like 10 o'clock. On the road, I think it was like 11, something like that.

I can't remember exactly. So you gotta shoot around. Usually eat breakfast after shoot around. Probably take a nap. Get the bus about 3.50. Get to the gym. Do your shooting. Chill for a little bit.

Play the game. After the game, get something to eat. Do whatever you wanna do. That's usually a day in the life on a game day. Off day, usually got practice like 11. on a game day. Off day, usually got practice like 11. Not a game day, just regular day. Got practice at 11. 11 and 2 you probably at the gym. 2.30. Getting your work in, lift weights, get some shots up, whatever. After that your day is free. So this is where the trouble come about for

NBA players. You got a lot of free time. So when you young, young guys, I always tell them though, you should go back to the gym later that night. Probably come back in around seven, get some more shots, put some work in, call a coach, whatever it is. You got some of your guys in town, head on rebound for you, just keep staying in the gym. That's what I did my first two, three years.

Some guys, you get to go home and play the game all day. You get to call in the girls. Don't say you got three days in a row, you just got practice. That's when you go out to the club, where you might have a little party at your crib. Don't let it be like the Super Bowl weekend or something. That's when the shit start getting vicious,

because it's so much free time. And you don't got nothing to do you got all this money And you got free time It can get wiki I Can see how Zion a lot of have to start the form I can see how he gets out of shape a lot of habits start the form man design on the max deal, too You ain't got nothing you used to really getting booty like that and that was big old double-end walking that boy You ain't used to really getting booty like that. And that big old double N walking that boy fucking.

We ain't got a game until Friday, bitch, it's Tuesday. A lot of had to start to form in. You start seeing dudes doing stuff that, nah, that's why a lot of guys get out of the league fast. Yeah. Cause it's a lot of free time. If you ain't dedicated to the game or you ain't locked in, it could get spooky fast.

It's easy. There's so much shit for y'all to learn too. That's a different game. It's so easy just to do shit, man. Like it's crazy. It's just too much time. And then you gotta think when you 19, a lot of dudes, they go from living with their mama

to a college dorm. Yeah. And then you get a million dollars, now you living by yourself. seen a lot of dudes, they go from living with their mama to a college dorm. And then you get a million dollars and now you living by yourself. That freedom different. Like college freedom, you got freedom with your coaching them, your advisors and them still can tell on you. Yeah, you still gotta routine.

You know, you gotta go to class. You miss class, you get told on. You gotta run, team gotta run, all type of weird shit. NBA, you ain't no advisors. Most of the time, your family's just happy you got some money now. Yeah, NBA is. You gotta really give a fuck.

NBA, you just gotta make it to practice on time. Long as you make it on time, you smooth. After that, they don't give a fuck what you do. You can go gamble, drink all night, just don't be late. NFL, they got curfew on Saturdays. We no curfews, game day, whatever. Boys used to come in, man. Let's say you play in New York.

New York, everybody like to go out in New York. Boys would be coming in seven in the morning, walking, they'd close on, regular close on, walking to Starbucks. The bus for shoot around probably nine o'clock or something. It used to be early in New York because we used to go to the garden sometimes, so it'd be hella early.

Boys would just wear their clothes till the train. Hey, get my loop off the door. Just bring it to niggas be in, hoe outfits on the bus like. Get to the gym, take they shit off, do shoot around, come back home, go to sleep, play the game. Don't nobody say nothing. Niggas be smelling like a fifth.

Like you. Nobody say nothing. Niggas be smelling like a fifth. Nobody care. I was- Niggas go home and nap and- Yeah, bro. They come back, long as you did your job, nobody cared. Like I used to see niggas just wait like, bro. When I was a rookie, Joe and them used to have, like we had landed in LA, they had had car services outside,

but like on the tarmac. Or like when you went through the gate, it'd be a bunch of black cars, SUVs outside the gate, ready to pick you up and go to the club. They don't even hit the hotel. They go straight here, like drop my bags off. I've been a part of that. I was gonna drop my bag off nigga. That's a vibe.

That's the player thing about being in the NBA. The NFL is a, it's strict bro. I was definitely dropping my bag off nigga. I remember, I'm telling, I might be telling too much but fuck it. Me and PJ what time we was in Milwaukee. We got to Houston. We got there about 1030 at night.

Right, we went like 1030. He like T, we up and down or we just going straight from the airport. I'm like, let's go up and down. Let me change my clothes. He like, man, fuck that. Watch what I do. He has a brand new Porsche pick up, pick us up on the tarmac. So he get off the plane. So He has a brand new Porsche pick us up on the tarmac. So he get off the plane, so nasty yellow 911 on the tarmac. I'm like, it's motherfucking nasty. Now mind you, we on a road trip. He like, come on T, let's go. I'm like, I'm gonna take you to my shoe house.

I'm like, bet. I'm like, man, look what I got on. I don't have no sweatsuit. He like, bring your bag. So imagine me, I got a big ass luggage. The 911 Trump, he put his shit in. They got me in the front seat. Put a luggage in.

Niggas was texting me like, you thirsty as fuck. I was thirsty as I've been in front of that motherfucker now I live with a luggage like this. Thirsty as hell. He like me, don't worry about that shit, man. We had to have a good time, but it was thirsty as fuck though. Damn, bro. We touched down, we outside.

Aw, what? Nigga, up and down rules, shouts out my old heads. I couldn't imagine doing that shit, bro. Every night, rookie, you're asked to go out every night. Shout out my old heads, I ain't gonna shout them out because they post Mary Prylie. Nigga, it's probably Lyon. It's probably Lyon.

It was a different time in life. Yeah, it's probably Lyon and shit. That's an different time in life. Yeah, they probably lying to shit. That's an interesting though, because people be like, man, like the schedule. I'm like, yeah, the schedules don't be as rigorous as some people think they have none of five, but your pressure to perform is so crazy that it bounces out way more. Oh, yes. Now the pressure to perform is tough now. Like you are getting paid off of your performance.

So it's cool to have all this money. I know people always be like, oh, I hate when you complain like, I'm like, it's cool to have all this money and make this money. And people will say, save your money and all this, blah, blah, blah. But the average MBA career is four years, right?

So in four years, you say you made, say you made a million dollars a year after taxes, let's say you took home two million after your four years, you got two million, you got a head start, right? Cool, that's two million. If you never did nothing else in life, you never learned shit. Let's just say you wanted niggas went to school

for one year, you ain't get a degree, you ain't never learned shit, you've been babied your whole life, or whatever it is, niggas didn't took care of you, you went to Alabama, the ain't get a degree, you ain't never learned shit, you've been babied your whole life, or whatever it is. Niggas in took care of you, you went to Alabama, the white girl gave you money, all this shit your whole life, right? And you even saved up two million dollars.

Now your basketball career is shot. Now you might go overseas for 25,000 for a year, like a couple months. You just doing this. You ain't, you try to invest that two million, you still gotta live. So now you gotta find a place to stay. Say you spend, I don't know, 200,000 on a crib,

800, 180, whatever it is. Now you starting to see that shit chip away. You still gotta pay property tax. Even if you got investments, you still gotta live regular day life. Eventually you're gonna have to get a job, bro. Like you're gonna have to do some shit else to keep, like to maintain your life.

Like this is just like a nest egg of 1.8 million, which is cool. But if you don't know how to do nothing else, what job are you gonna fucking do? Cause a lot of us didn't have degrees. Like I don't have a degree. A lot of us are not qualified to do shit, besides play basketball or coach basketball or do some other shit.

So that's where the trouble happened. Like luckily, I was blessed to make a certain amount of money and be able to save shit where you like, you ain't really got to, you know, with interest, your interest payments, you can really take care of your life for the rest of your life. But a lot of people don't get that same opportunity. So you'll see niggas doing jobs and shit. People can't understand like, why the fuck is this nigga working? He made all this money and they like, nah, not necessarily. And the nigga probably didn't have no more skills because he probably left college after one year. Mm-hmm. And shit, he can't coach it.

Only thing else he can do is play it. And he can't play it no more. Nobody will hire him as a coach. He's fucked. Like you said, a coach, even a sergeant, you have to have a degree or certain certifications. Yeah, in college. Yeah, you need that. And then that's a best case scenario.

Most people get them checks, that too that they got. Oh, they done bought a whip, they done bought a chain. And I'm saying, if you ain't buy shit, like you ain't do nothing in them four years. Yeah, that's the best case. Terry Crews, boy, you ain't spend no paper. You a normal nigga? Yeah, you done bought a chain,

you done bought a car. You a normal nigga. You might be down to 1.1 to start your life. And niggas, I know a lot of niggas like, oh nigga, 1.1 nigga, I been good. You probably thinking that. I was thinking that same thing. But when you live that life, your whole life,

it's different. Like when you a worker, you've been working since you was 16, 17. Nigga, I've been catered to since I was 16, 17. Nigga's been giving me shit. You know what I mean? I've been walking in the gym, get that nigga some shoes, get that,

everybody take care of everything. I ain't never had to work for shit. That's all I know is give me. I'm Jeff, give me this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You want me to play here? Give me a hundred. That's what you been your whole life.

You ain't never had to work. Nigga ask NBA niggas how many times they done had a job. Oh, nigga never. Nigga if you was good. They don't really got time to. Yeah, but they don't have resumes. Yeah, like what? The athletes really don't have jobs.

I mean, motherfucker like Kurt Warner. He was only one. Why, I feel like Kurt Warner. Why you go to the Kurt Warner? But he was, he did, he had a regular job, bro. Kurt Warner was like worked at Kroger or something. John Starks? What'd he do? He was at a grocery store. But a lot of niggas didn't have regular jobs.

Like niggas didn't have jobs growing up. That's why I tell everybody I was blessed, bro. That what we, like even doing this shit, like the fact that we found this and it even became something, it was cool. Like the, you know what I mean? That's a lot of niggas don't find that second hobby. And if you wasn't blessed to make a lot of money,

and I ain't saying a million dollars is not a lot of money, but in the grand scheme of things, playing professional sports, a million dollars is not a lot of money. So if you're not blessed like that, sometimes the situation is a lot harder. So, everybody in the comments like, oh, shut up complaining, the guy go to work.

Well, you've been working since you were 14, so you understand how to work. These niggas don't know how to work. Yeah. That is a hard adjustment. Yeah, bro. I just speaking about that, like he ain't no NBA nigga,

but he had all the bitches. Myles behavior Lee singer, they just had him on Twitter. He work at Amazon don't he? Yeah. Yeah I'm saying. Yeah. He in that third shift going crazy bro. Now imagine.

He ain't never fucking smile but. I imagine I know that nigga made six, $700,000. Yeah, he cashed in for sure. Yeah, solid crib for sure. Yeah, must they was in for sure. Yeah. Solid crib for sure. Yeah, must've been signed to Chris Stokes. Nah, I ain't doing it. He probably wasn't. I ain't doing it.

He probably wasn't. No, no. We just got to. No. I'm not gonna say nothing about that. I'm trying to move on. Come on. Let's get naked.

Fall! Nope. Chris Stokes! I see you, baby. There's nobody in this room. That's a crazy shout out. That's a crazy shout out. That's Marcus Hustle.

I know. I'm telling the joke, but I wish he was here. When he was here, I was so shitty, I didn't say that verse, man. Pay. I'm living you. I'm living you, man When he was here, I was so shitty, I didn't say that verse, fair play. I'm gonna give you a break. I was meant to say that verse when he made for our plaque. Look at that mummy like, ooh.

Hey, they gotta get away with Chris Stokes man. He gotta burn man. Yeah, him and Marcus Houston. Marcus Houston picture with him wearing that all white with the plastic over it, still one of the craziest pictures of all time. Weakest picture. He was on the runway.

What happened to them? What happened to them niggas, man? Chris Stokes, that's what happened, bro. They were fucking abused and taken advantage of. B2K? No, what was Marcus Houston group called? Immature. Yeah, what happened to the dude with the eye

that never talks? Bro, I wouldn't advise you to go read that shit because it's dark as hell. Nah, bro, they was, what happens to the dude with the eye that never talks? Bro, I wouldn't advise you to go read that shit because it's dark as hell. Nah, bro, they was, what I just said, they was reviews and taking advantage of, bro. Oh man, I hate to hear that. That shit is crazy. Y'all niggas watch the Diddy documentary?

Nah. It's like 30 of them. I watched the one on the ID channel. It's like 30 of them. Yeah, it's like three on Tubi. I seen like half of one, but. I was watching one on the ID channel. What'd he do?

They just trying to make the nigga just seem like he, I mean, he qualifies for everything they saying. Like just like how aggressive he is, and that was the first episode I watched. He was just like super angry, like he had like rage, he had a snap out of any time. And I was like, well, this looked very accurate. You know what I mean? Like, yeah, you'll see that shit. And I was like, well, this look very accurate. You know what I mean?

Like. Yeah, you'll see that shit. Yeah, like, we seen the video with Cassie, so it was just like, uh, I was gonna say after that, I don't think nobody could hide. Yeah, I'm like, well it makes sense, but we couldn't hide, bro, we saw that video. I'm like, they trying to paint a picture of him

being like angry. I'm like, that picture painted, but look at you, bro, you was a mean nigga. Nah, your dude out of pocket. I was just thinking about Chris Stokes bitch ass walking around LA like he's so cool. Bro, what? I hate that nigga, bro.

What? Chris Stokes a legendary, what is it, producer or manager? He got a couple more adjectives now. But we'll move on. Type in Chris Stokes, man. I don't know what he did, bro. I ain't really tapped it. No, don't know what he did, bro. I ain't really tapped it.

It's a B2K, right? And I ain't laughing at the allegations. I'm just saying, when you see him, he just be walking around smiling and shit. Like, dude, you're a piece of shit, man. I don't know, Chris. There's a lot of people who just heart-shaking the pressure right now, bro.

It's crazy. I don't even know. You a maker, manager? I'm your manager. You a maker, manager? Nah, D-Fund, crazy. I don't even know. Are you a manager? No, I'm a maker. Oh, Define bro. I really had him. I'm sorry bro.

Alligatious bro. No, no, no. Nah bro. Nah, I ain't no allegatious. He did that. Yeah bro. I don't know what he did. I ain't looking at him.

That nigga over there. Not for me. But the day said not for me. You heard all that bullfuckin' shit. That nigga over there.

Not club pop 20, LLC. Yeah, I said allegedly. This is the gang, I got the chain. I'm wearing it to court. I don't know what that nigga doing. Now you like ace at Rocky nigga. I've just been saying a lot of like, did he have a nigga sing for his beds

and they showing a bunch of like rap battles and shit. Like y'all see the nigga. Did y'all see when he was on making the bed? He said, all right, now y'all niggas get naked. Whoa. Oh, I gotta tell y'all to quit. Shout out to Diddy, man. No, we get some help, man.

They had a mic in the shower. He wanted them to set up the whole set in the shower. It's like, I was on one of them documentaries they were talking about this morning. They wanted to set up the set in the shower and they wanted to sing and produce the music in the shower. That's equivalent to R. They wanted to set up the set in the shower and like they wanted to sing and produce the music in the shower. That's the equivalent to R. Kelly having to bed in the studio.

Yeah, that's some freaky niggas. I did see he had a big ass bed in his backyard. That's like yeah, that's freaky. They had voice recordings of him requesting to his assistant dude like to bring him drugs and shit. Bring him drugs. Like bring him like, he was like, bring the sialas, bring the mushrooms, bring the, bring the Adderall,

She was probably fed up, there was too many kids there. There was too many kids. But y'all was right there about my attitude. That's what makes it funny. So you know what I do, CVS, if I ask her early, I go get some hot cheeto, I'll get right. That's crazy, bro. I was definitely, yeah, my lunch was always packed, bro.

McDonald's. What? I think I would've hated you. I would've been talking shit. Some of my niggas did, though. I got treated different than my neighborhood. I would've hated you, bro. That's why I kind of felt away about my dad.

I'm like man, I used to say it too like, you know bro, my niggas really don't got nothing bro. And I ain't saying we ain't had nothing, but she just want spending money on that shit.

My mama loaded up bro. Every time my niggas came over to the crib bro, it was love. Me and Salt, we was on 23rd and Kenwood or on 40th Street, bro, it was love. I ain't no, whatever you trying to steal cookies in, no, my mama niggas passed. My friends couldn't come over to my house and eat, bro.

My dad, my dad was always like that. Like if I would have asked my dad for a lunchable, he would have did it, but my dad be gone. So my dad, like when Phillipa Noon come over, we ate McDonald's. Like eating McDonald's and shit, that was nothing for us. We ate that shit every day. Like my dad was on that.

But like, shit that you, the other shit, nah. She had a glass cookie jar, nigga. So when you opened it, you could hear that. Ah, you could hear it, bro. Nigga, what? If you don't get your ass out of that cookie jar, what's wrong with you, motherfucker? No, no, no, I'm like, damn, mama.

Over the cookies? Over the cookies, bro, beat your ass. Boy. Nigga, you couldn't, we used to, you remember the gallon jugs of juice? You couldn't drink it. They couldn't try to send you to therapy after this. That's why the back of the school team drives me crazy.
