Starting point is 00:00:00 Oh, you know what time it is. It's time for the dissect DJ. Look at me. I'm a work of all. Smith is apparently back, everyone. What's going on? It's your boy DJ MC. With your boy, Steeze.
Starting point is 00:00:32 What up, Stiz? Because we are the DJs like to spit it. Throw it back and dissect it. And I'm going to be honest with y'all. We had a real last second changing gears here. We changed it up. We had a whole. We used to do that more often, I feel like.
Starting point is 00:00:49 Yeah, well, if there's a good reason for it, I'm always game for it. But we had a whole other song that we were about to do. We were getting ready to record. And then I did, it was like, wait, have you heard that new Will Smith track? He was like, wait a minute, what? Will Smith has a track? I was like, yeah, a new rap track. I've heard parts of it.
Starting point is 00:01:04 And then he was like, what? All right, should we switch it up? And then I was like, it's featuring Jaden. Yeah, Justin randomly says, you know, Will Smith has a new song? And I was like, what? the Will Smith, the Will Smith that getting jingy with it, Will Smith. The Slap Men in Black Bullsmith.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Will Smith that he's known for from this point on, which kind of sucks because he did that to himself. But, yes, that same guy. He said, yeah, he has this new song. Just came out this year featuring Jaden. 2004. 2004. July 6th, by the way.
Starting point is 00:01:40 That's like the fifth time he's called 2024, 2004, 2004, so. July 6th on 2004, by the way. Specific day. July 6. July 26. July 26. 26. I was immediately like, all right, scratch the plans. Let's go ahead and throw this thing on.
Starting point is 00:01:49 We have not listened to it at all. First, like, little cryptic key beats that you just heard is the first I've heard, and only I've heard of it. And I've heard a couple different lyrics that were, I've got to be honest with you, pretty funny. All right, well, I can't wait to get to that. What is the song called? I want to put it in the works. It's called Work of Art. All right. Will Smith and Russ, featuring Jaden. And Russ? Yeah, I don't know. This says, Russ right here. I know what that Russ means. Oh, okay. This must be another person that's involved.
Starting point is 00:02:17 I think that's person saying, I thought that was Jaden. I thought that was him too. I don't know. We'll figure it out as we go. I don't know why hearing Jaden and being featured on it, just put it over the top for me. I was like, all right, let's listen to it. Cancel all my afternoon meetings and my plans. We're going to dissect Will Smith and Jaden Smith, work of art.
Starting point is 00:02:38 Do you say it was called work of art, right? Work of Art featuring J. By the way, I think I've told the story before. I'm going to say it again. I've danced with Jaden. Me and Jaden danced together. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:50 What was the circumstances that brought this about? I used to DJ photoshoots randomly for a company. And it just happened that Jaden Smith, not his company, not anything he was in. His actually had about three buddies that were in like a TV show. And he joined the party to hang out with them all day because it was really like a 10-hour thing or something like that. So the buddies are there. They're doing the photo shoot. And then Jaden sitting there next to me giving me songs.
Starting point is 00:03:14 to play like hey try this song and then he would put the song out I'd be like oh this one's dope and then Jaden would be dancing and I was dancing with him for like like 20 minutes me and Jane were getting it and that's how that's that's why I forever respected Jaden and still do he has this thing out where he puts out water or some shit and the water is actually delicious and I am doing my best to start I really am I don't know why I feel like my I'm doing a pretty good job of being like an expert need to end of what you said want to like keep everything I feel like so far I've done a great job of, come on, Cass, you got to listen to this one,
Starting point is 00:03:47 not the water thing. I was going to jump in when you said you dance with him, and then I was going to come back around because my camera keeps fucking up and stopping, so I got to keep going over there. But I was going to jump back in and say, like, oh, tell me about, was Jaden a good dancer? But then you started being like, he has a water thing.
Starting point is 00:04:02 He, like, sells water. I don't care. It's called just water. I don't care. I want to know more about if Jaden was actually like a good dancer. So it's his company. I'm promoting you. I know, but that was clearly you've trying.
Starting point is 00:04:12 If we took us a sponsorship, if we talk. talk about his song here and it's a good song and we give five slaps and snaps and shit. Probably not going to happen. Probably not going to happen. I'm just saying. And then Jayden's like, yo, you guys really did a good job. Would you like to promote my water?
Starting point is 00:04:25 I'm like, just water? You'd be like, yes. You see what I'm saying? I'm much more. I'm thinking beyond. I'm much more interested in keeping it real and giving a solid, legit dissection of Jaden and Will Smith's and Russ. I'm looking at the name of it now.
Starting point is 00:04:42 You got the lyrics? You got the lyrics? I'm going to play the song, you do the lyrics. All right, so should we start? Just hit it up. I want to know if Jaden was a good dancer. He was. That's all I need to know.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Here we go. I am the paint and I'm the brush and I'm the canvas. I am a saint. But if you touch, I am a savage. I am a Libra, but I identify as a cancer. All right, I hated him on that line. Fuck all that line. He got me right there for a lot.
Starting point is 00:05:15 a second when he said I'm a Libra. I'm like, fuck yeah, Libra's represent. And I said, I identify as a can't. Okay. What was all that? I'm not going to get into identification, politics and shit, but he just did. To try to say that I'm going to identify as a different astrology sign might be the most duchiest shit I've ever heard. Especially you said I identify as a cancer. He's a, he's the canvas, the brush, and the paint. I'm just literally looking at that. I'm a lever, but I identify as a cancer. First of all, that's the worst one you could identify as a cancer. I don't know anything about the description of what makes cancers this or that or even what time a year that is. I just always think it's got to be the worst one to be because you literally have to tell people I'm a cancer.
Starting point is 00:05:55 But not like an actual cancer. But that's what you got to say. Those are the words you got to speak. So if you were born at a time that doesn't have to identify as a cancer, why the fuck would you go out of your way to not only say, can you imagine if you met you were at a bar and you met someone. You like met some girl and she's just like, oh, hi, I'm a Scorpio, but I identify as a cancer. I'd just be like, I'm walking away. I'm not, I'm going to get it. I'm going to make up a reason to leave this table right now.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Like, you know what? I just remember I got to feed my dog. I'm like, Ron, you don't have a dog. No, I, I'm taking, I have one now. I've just, I got to. There you don't. And brushes is not, I didn't even bring him. That's the kind of line that I'm like as soon as I hear that I'm out.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Okay, sorry. Let's see what else you got. Let's keep it going. I am a savage. I am a Libra. But I identify. I just wanted him to say it again for you because I should have so bad it doesn't even rhyme it doesn't even rhyme to anything when you what really seriously the last
Starting point is 00:06:55 line that he said before that was I am a savage that's about as far away from rhyming with I'm a cancer or I identify as a cancer that they could ever be I think he's rhyming right now he's literally just he's literally just throwing shit against the wall like a goddamn Jackson Pollock I am the tongue truth and the lie both in tandem I am the son and I'm the rain and I'm the wind I am for real and I'm pretend You got out right as they
Starting point is 00:07:20 You're about to repeat his voice In like the deep You know Of this Yeah play that back I'm here like 10 seconds Sir you're like I'm the sun
Starting point is 00:07:32 And I'm the rain And I'm the wind I am for real And I'm pretend I am What do you mean you're pretend? Is he talking himself up? Is he talking to himself up?
Starting point is 00:07:43 Is he talking about? really trying to talk himself up right now is it up or down because he just said he's pretend i'm pretend i don't think what else is he what else did you say before that he's the wind and the fire he's he wrote these lyrics out he's earth win and fire is that basically what he said i could make i could make peace with all this if this was like a freestyle and it's just just come into him and it's like i don't know well he's just he's just kind of like wait and it's just it's working sound wise i guess for like a freestyle but he wrote these lyrics out and he probably spent years on him because i think this is will smith's first music that he's put out since fucking yeah
Starting point is 00:08:14 least a decade. Switch? Was Switch his last, like? Yeah. Switch. I'm a nominate. I remember him having a song called, that was like,
Starting point is 00:08:25 I'm gonna freak this. I feel like that was, that was even before a Switch, but I just remember the line that I was just, I was completely out. I was like, all right, I think Will Smith whole,
Starting point is 00:08:34 like, street cred was just completely dead when he said something like, they said I went soft. Yeah, Microsoft. He like said that in a rap song. And it was called, I'm gonna freak this. Can't nobody do this the way I do? You like how I freaking freak this say I do.
Starting point is 00:08:50 I do. Hey, this, which of the West, nobody wicked is this. I read in rap pages. They refer to me as soft. Yeah, more like micro saw. I'm about to freak this. What you want me to freak this?
Starting point is 00:09:03 And I remember just hearing that line and just being like, all right, let's just focus on acting, Big Dog. Like, you're really good at acting. I love your movies. But like, the whole hip-hop thing, you're just, it's past, by you literally just dropped yeah Microsoft like it was some sort of mic drop moment like oh he showed up you think he went soft you think will Smith went soft bruh only soft the big willy style of doing up in here Microsoft oh okay so i haven't listened any music that he's made
Starting point is 00:09:37 since then but yeah i think switch is probably around that era probably like 2007 so he has light him up with Sean Paul in 2004. Let's listen to that real quick beat. Get a song with Sean Paul this year? Play, yeah. I got the thing,
Starting point is 00:09:50 I let it sing to you. Noba cane will stop the pain that I'm gonna bring to you. It just ain't the same whenever they do it. My name like your cell phone got a ring to it.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Nobody willer. Can't lie. They down the ride like four wheelers. Can't hide when we outside. A yo villa. I don't cry. We won't miss you. But they cannot hide.
Starting point is 00:10:25 Not gonna lie. That was actually a bag guy. That one had some steam to it. That was cool. I like that one. Also, it brought Sean Paul back from the day. Brought Sean Paul, I don't know. That was cool.
Starting point is 00:10:36 I'll give it that. I can see that one getting in place. It's interesting. Okay, so Will Smith is apparently in 2024 back on this whole like I'm making music again. He has one other track called You Make It. Let's get that one a quick listen. All right. That was 2024 as well.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Three tracks total. Fired. You're just done with the check. Keep going. Got the Sunday choir going on and shit. Sunday service choir? Yeah, I wasn't feeling that one as much. Dude, the Sean Paul one, though.
Starting point is 00:11:27 That one was touching. Sean Wong. Light him up. Light him up. So it seems like he's kind of really going with this, like, sort of angry, almost like spoken word style these days. And what's he angry about, man? He's the one that went out here.
Starting point is 00:11:39 He's got a lot of things me angry about. Slapped. Like, he didn't, that wasn't even, that was unprovoked. Well, I kind of have a theory that Will Smith, You go back to the 90s. I don't think anybody had a better 90s. Like, we could have to make a case for, like, a few other people who had a better 90s in Will Smith.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Maybe you got, like, Brad Pitt, Tom Hanks, Michael Jordan. There's some other good people who, like, own the 90s. But I honestly think Will Smith is in the conversation for having the best 90s of anybody. And I kind of think he, it all got fucked up because he chose Jada. And it just sounds like she's been progressively, like, Will Smith in the 90s could have, like, literally had anyoney and he and he goes with jada and he like devotes his whole life to like trying to make her happy and it sounds like that is somewhat of an impossible task that it took him like 25 years to learn yeah although everybody around him could see it they're like i don't know man
Starting point is 00:12:32 and then he had to say some shit like eat my wife's name did you make that no it's just a drop that i use that's pretty good it's great drop download yeah no so that happened and then he literally threw it all away to try to like protect her and then she still just continue to bash his shit like left and right any chance she got going on her own fucking interviews and talk shows that she would produce for no reason at all and just like fucking talk about how she doesn't satisfy her anymore how she never really wanted to marry him all this shit that was just completely unforested errors and i kind of think you're hearing this music now and it feels a little bit like it's like when your friend's dad gets fired from his job and then he's like you know what i'm gonna make a mix tape and
Starting point is 00:13:30 and he spends the next several weeks in his basement and he's just like recording demo tapes. And he's like making beats. And you're like, hey, is your dad all right? And he's in your friends like, I don't know. I don't really know what's going on down there. I'm just letting him do his thing. I'm just let him cook.
Starting point is 00:13:43 It's kind of what this is sounding like because a lot of this is just sort of, I'm getting the feel of Will Smith's just going in to like an empty studio. And he's like, I've got to release some shit off my mind. I'm the thought. I'm the saint. I'm the touch.
Starting point is 00:13:56 I'm the savage. I'm a Libra, but I identify as a cancer. I'm the tongue. the truth and the lie both in tandem wait both in tandem yeah yeah truth and lies at the same time yeah but it sounds like he was gonna finish that line and he just didn't he goes right to i am the sun not true i can accept a lot of this as bullshit uh as it's just sort of like then he says the wind you're the sun and the wind and the rain yeah he's saying hangs all three
Starting point is 00:14:22 he's basically a rainbow that's the combination so when it rains outside you're like i think there's some rain shops going on yeah yes that's will That's Will. There's a 30% chance of slight Will Smith in the afternoon. I don't know how I feel about that, but yes. He's all those things. That's what he's saying. He's taken over there.
Starting point is 00:14:41 He is Musa, he's Jesus and Judas. Damn, he went there, guys. Musa, Judas, and Jesus? He said he's all three of those? Wait, who's Musa? I don't know. I don't know, but I just know that the other two are very important. I know about Jesus and Judas' backstory. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Judas doesn't set Jesus up Does that what happened? Yeah Judas But didn't he forgive him before? He was like Judas I forgive you though After like he came back from the dead or whatever I think
Starting point is 00:15:09 I don't know Dude Jesus forgives all So yeah there's that You know I would Judas is the one who betrayed him I would fully think about going Like becoming religious If I just didn't have to like
Starting point is 00:15:20 Read It's a lot of reading It's not just reading It's reading like scripture And like study it I don't want to do that I don't want to do that stuff I want to read, you know?
Starting point is 00:15:31 That has some more turns and twists and... Well, those have pretty a lot of turns and twists. It's just more of like, you have to kind of self-interpret. You got to read like this like ye old speak from... Yeah, yeah, as I'm saying, like, wait, what does he mean by that? That's why literally when I used to go to church all the time growing up, they'd have somebody like read something from like the Old Testament or the New Testament, but they do one of each first, second readings.
Starting point is 00:15:54 And then they would literally have the priest come on and do a sermon and just kind of like, all right let me break this down let me shoot straight with you guys I needed that dude Talk to you a little bit about what these readings are back It's gonna be a little difficult You know and he kind of give his like interpretative speak And try to relate to you
Starting point is 00:16:11 You know and be like what they should They should yeah I don't understand Because actually just reading a Bible verse It's fucking hard to follow And that's where Justin loses all His religious aspiration And also I'm too like literal stuff
Starting point is 00:16:25 So they'll say something And you know you're supposed to take it as more Like I am the sun, I'm the rain, I'm the wind. Like Will here. And my ass is like, no, you're not. I am for real and I'm pretend. That doesn't make sense. Will, that doesn't make sense.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Well, I don't know. Let's keep him going. And up our brand. And the Quran and in the Bible, I am a shepherd. I am a leader and a disciple. I am the wretched and the blessed. I am the average. I am the shadow.
Starting point is 00:16:49 And I'm the light. I am the marriage. I'm a work of eyes. Baby, look at me. I'm a work of eyes. Now they're framing me. Painting in the thought. I almost feel like I shouldn't be listening to this.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Like he... Why? Did he just disrespect like a bunch of different religions and stuff by saying he is there? And then he's that. And then therefore, everybody worships him? Like, I don't understand. Did he say something about being worship? Well, he just said he's the God.
Starting point is 00:17:18 I am a shepherd. I'm a leader and a disciple. Yeah, he's all that. These are all conflicting. Okay, a shepherd would mean here like the one leading, the herd. Yeah, you take care of the sheep. And it's a leader. And then he said, and I'm a disciple, which is more in like the vein of being a follower.
Starting point is 00:17:33 I am in the Torah and the Quran and in the Bible. I don't think you're in any of those. See? Yes, I'm saying. So it's like, I don't know if I should be respectful of this or disrespectful of his disrespect. Here's my stance, which I
Starting point is 00:17:49 carry with me on most things that I feel like you should take a little bit of a note of. I don't give a fuck. I don't care. I don't care. The fact that he's saying he's in the Torah, the Koran, and the Bible does not offend me in the slightest because I don't give it down. Yeah, but some people do. That's what I'm trying to say is that others may get offended and therefore I'm worried about the offense that could be taken. I'm going to speak from myself and say, I don't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:18:17 I think that he's going through a midlife crisis and I do think that all of that verse was just douchey as fuck. It was just a douchey as far. It was literally a whole verse of, I am this, I am that. He's a work of art. It was a bunch of conflicting statements. He's somehow the sun and the rain. He's real and pretend.
Starting point is 00:18:38 He's a judge and a victim. And the shooter. He's the Torah, the Koran, and the Bible. He's a shepherd and a disciple. He is the wretched and the blessed. And the average. He pulled average in on that one too. He's everything, dude.
Starting point is 00:18:53 He's everything. He's a work of art. He's a shadow and the light. I am the marriage. No, sir. I feel a little, like, I feel, I don't know what to feel. You know, it's kind of got, like, influencer energy trying to, like, talk up some bullshit
Starting point is 00:19:07 because they need to put out another video to get some views. Creating a video that's kind of, like, explain, like, what you need to do, how you need to manifest energy today. Let's see what else he's going to say. So then we get to the chorus, which says it's Jaden and Russ. Who the fuck is Russ? Is that like Russell Wilson or something? No, I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Russ wishes he could jump on a track with Will He'd be like that would That would buy me so much street credit I'm for that And then he could be like Yeah me and Will He hang out all the time He's a multi MVP
Starting point is 00:19:40 Who are you No he's not One time MVP? I don't think so You got a triple-dow that one here Russell Wilson? No He definitely got MVP
Starting point is 00:19:49 I feel like he made Super Bowl MVP maybe When the one time they won Even though he shouldn't No he didn't because The guy who got the interception got the MVP. I'm not talking about Russell Wilson. I'm talking about Russell Westbrook. Yeah, he won an MVP.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Anyways, I'm an idiot. Let's keep you rolling. I'm a work with a vibe, yeah. Baby look at me. I'm a work of a white. Now they're framing me, painting in a dog, yeah. But a dead pee, I'm a work with a fight.
Starting point is 00:20:16 Yeah. Yeah. My soul feels trapped like I'm writing the Bryce and Tillabees. On a road to inner peace, taking unfamiliar streets, trying to kill the beast. Just made it grow. More. My shadow's haunting me. What you think I'm driving a ghost for?
Starting point is 00:20:29 Perceptions, B-O-W. Voices in my head like we don't fuck with you. Evo is the poison, the cure is being uncomfortable. After the chaos comes certain clarity. Being a public figure is constant immersion therapy. Make sure that when you stare at me, every flaw is highlighted. Instead of acting like you got blindsided by the fact that I'm human, the good, the bad and the ugly. Just know that you're looking right into a mirror.
Starting point is 00:20:56 As a live and breathe. So we're talking. So when we, if I talk shit on him, I'm talking shit on myself. Is that what I got from that? Why? What do you say? He said, the last line was, if you're judging me, just now you're judging yourself. No, I'm judging you.
Starting point is 00:21:16 That doesn't. No, that's not what he said. I know what he said. It's fucking too. She is chucked. I can absolutely judge you without being like, you know what? I'm actually judging myself. I think all of my.
Starting point is 00:21:25 By judging him, you're judging yourself. All of my reaction to your song is secretly. about how I feel about myself. Yes. How I need to like face my inner demons and look in the mirror. Yes. Like, you know what? All this stuff I'm saying about how Will's dushy lying about being a Libra but identifying as a cancer is actually me telling myself, hey, maybe you should just be a cancer and not a Libra.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Maybe you've been lying yourself all. Libras aren't the best. You know what I mean? I get why he. I have never met a Libra that wasn't awesome. And that's the only one that I actually pay attention to. So when somebody says they're Libra, I know a little bit about Scorpios.
Starting point is 00:22:02 You guys are okay too. A little quick to, like, jump back attack with the little Stinger symbol in the back. Y'all are ready to, like, jump after it and be like, you know what, fuck that. So I don't believe much in astrology, but I do pay attention to Libras because anytime I read it,
Starting point is 00:22:20 I'm like, let's see what it says about me. And it's actually pretty on point. Got the scales symbol. We're balanced. We're easygoing. And everybody else I've known as a Libra, actually kind of like that too. And then when I read a little bit about,
Starting point is 00:22:30 the Scorpios and I saw that I was like that actually kind of checks out too a lot of it's like get out of here a lot of well it was a lot of good stuff tired of fucking in the good but the people that didn't know there were Scorpios in life I'm like yeah that actually you kind of check my do good people get your back are loyal but if you like cross them they're like you know you're dead to me dead to me and that's I like that part of Scorpio yeah I know that's why it all gets a good trait so kind of makes sense but yeah don't fucking identify as something It's just, okay, there's no fucking identifying bullshit going on. You don't need to be like, I identify as this symbol from henceforth.
Starting point is 00:23:08 I don't know. I can't, I'm stuck on that line. And then the rest of this, yeah, no. Some other guy came in and started saying a bunch of random stuff. Russ and all I heard was the end where you said, if you're judging me, you're judging yourself. He faded. I was like, first of all, I like the way you faded. That was cool.
Starting point is 00:23:24 That was cool. It was like he was falling down like a well. Yeah, I like that. But second of all, go fuck yourself. It was like the guy. If I'm judging you. it's because I'm doing a podcast on which we judge songs and shit. It's what we do.
Starting point is 00:23:34 That's what we do. We came here to judge you. Disseck fucking DJs. It makes me feel better about myself. And if it makes me feel better about myself to then dissect what you're doing, so be it. I'm going to do it. I'm going to my therapy. I'm going to do it.
Starting point is 00:23:47 You know how your theory is going in your basement and reading a bunch of intense lyrics? And spoken wording at the fun fucking microphone talking about how you're everything and nothing all the same time. Or this shit. Eat my wife. I was about to laugh. or something. I don't know what. Never mind.
Starting point is 00:24:17 All right. I'm ready to do it. It's been done. Yeah, so I don't know. Do you want to go over any of those rust lines? No, I don't have to. Give a fuck. Let's go by heard.
Starting point is 00:24:26 We did go slightly into the Will Smith part, and it sounded like the beat was about dropping, so I kind of liked that. So let's listen to what Will's got to say from this point. There's another little like? Yeah, yeah. Here we go. Give a fuck about what we're said.
Starting point is 00:24:36 Live and breathe. On myself. Soared up to my neck again. I ain't holding my breath again. He's heavy that wears the crown, but I won't bow down unless I'm a man. I'm a king, no denying, that's time to do lion shit. I'm a lead till I die, follow me to the peace,
Starting point is 00:24:55 through the fire, in my dreams out of history, the surprises the energy. They tried to sense of me. Work of eyes, baby, look at me, I'm a work of vice. Now they're framing me, painting in the thoughts. For the damn pee, I'm a work of vice, as I live and breathe. I'm a work of a fire, baby, look at me, I'm a work of vice. Baby, look at me, I'm a work of a vibe.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Now they're framing me, painting in the dark. For the dead pee, I'm a work of vibe as I live and breathe. That kind of churchy there at the end a little bit with the sort of the choir thing. Yeah, it seems like that album has quite a bit of that. See, he has a whole album out? I mean, this is like the third song now. Two songs from the album, and then the album I'm sure will be released soon. It's waiting to drop.
Starting point is 00:26:06 The other one was made in June 28. was the first one and then the last one was put out on July 26 so he's doing this like once a month I just feel like as an artist you don't even need to drop albums on June 7th was his first one so he's kind of putting one out a month that's his new thing too I kind of feel like that's honestly how you should do it now because I don't I feel like everything gets mucked together if you put it all out one album and it's like people aren't going to the stores to buy albums anymore you know they download your songs and I would think it'd be work better to be like here's another song for this for you. You guys like kind of
Starting point is 00:26:40 feast on that for like a couple weeks and then I'm going to come up with another one. I just don't think that the process of album releases the way it used to work because you'd actually have to get people to go to the store and buy your album. I just don't think it really plays anymore. Just like you got to drop. You got to switch up. I got you.
Starting point is 00:26:55 There's one more song that was made in 2017 called Get Lit. Do you remember this one? No. Let's see. One fast forward to the middle. A little reggae vibe. this. Well, you should have never went into that world. I hate that kind of shit.
Starting point is 00:27:37 Yeah, but that one will play. That one plays. This will get people, like, dancing for sure. Yeah. I hate that kind of shit. It touches on a little bit of reggae, touch the little bit of EDM. And it has the drop. A lot of EDM.
Starting point is 00:27:48 All it takes is to have a drop and then get something that will get everybody like fucking like doing this too. And that one had that. So that one works. It's fine. I'm not going to listen to it, but it will. Slaps and snaps of Will Smith's new work of art track. What do you give him?
Starting point is 00:28:02 We're not talking about how Russ said my souls feel trapped like I'm writing to Bryce and Tiller Beans. I don't know what that means. It's the first line of verse two. I just like, I thought that was good. Because you know when he wrote that, he penned that shit out. He's like, fuck yeah. Oh, man. Shit.
Starting point is 00:28:20 I'll give it. I wanted to make sure that it's not smoking because my pen is on. fire right now. I'm eating the shit out of the studio. I'm ready for my beat. Are you ready? I'm giving it a It's one in one. That's it. And the only reason it gets the extra snap is because I like the drop and beat
Starting point is 00:28:42 that it did towards the end. I like that do do do do do do do do do do. I was like okay got me a little hype there but other than that the song sucks and I'll never listen to it again. Yeah I definitely never listen this one again. So slaps and snaps? I want to have done. Yeah. Yeah, I'll get one.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Why do you even give it one? Because I'll tell you why. At least they are actually making an attempt to say something, even if it's fucking nonsensical garbage, that is like thinking it's being artistic. I got to say, like, I don't know that much about Jaden, but everything I feel like I have seen from him, this is kind of in line with it a little bit where it's like, He's thinking he's being really deep and artistic, and it's literally just saying riddles of shit that's like, oh, but I'm saying this, but I'm also this. So like, what?
Starting point is 00:29:34 Did I just blow your mind? What? How is that even possible? It's possible because I've made it possible. It wasn't like that when we dance. When we dance, he was just. How long ago was that? Man, that was like 2014.
Starting point is 00:29:48 Okay. Ten years ago? I think a lot of shit has gone down in the last 10 years in that family. Yeah, but I don't know. I at least appreciate that they are trying to say something and saying legible lyrics, having you being able to hear it. And, like, they're not just, like, hiding behind this kind of mumble rap concept where you're like, like, hey, hey, like, so much of what we see in hip-hop. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:14 So I at least appreciate that they actually took the time to write something like a line, like a bar, like my soul feels trapped, like I'm writing to Bryce and Tiller beats. fucking drop the mic on that. Boom, son. Yeah, so I respect that. The sound is not my cup of tea, but it does at least sound like something you might hear on
Starting point is 00:30:37 something. I don't know. When you're shopping at Best Buy. It kind of sounds like a workout song. You can put that on it like a workout. Like, I am a captain. I am a... It does feel like a get hype about something. All right. I'll give it another snap too. All right. I just want to another same read.
Starting point is 00:30:52 I'll snap for the effort of like, actually trying to put together a piece of music. And then it picks up if you really want to do it. And Will Smith actually deciding to step back into music because he's gone through a midlife crisis. I'm here for, and I would say that the proof that he could do it is proven in that Sean Paul one that you played earlier.
Starting point is 00:31:11 Let's go back to that one. Let's play that one more time because I want to wash a taste out of my mouth of this Bryson-Tiller beats. Let's do it. I'm a middle song with this one. Don't by the school don't try for the vent Don't bother run down by the call friend
Starting point is 00:31:29 Not another word from your dis-grance Before you get pressed before your life end Another one down them done again If you are bad man boy you shouldn't fear figure come outside Right da da Next!
