Starting point is 00:02:13 So we're going to be vaubing. We're still vibing. But there's no big topics that we're going to get to. Like, I mean, the LeBron and Kevin Gates thing, that's not a big topic. I keep telling you how big things happen on Monday. Like, for example, 6'9 is in court. It's possible that he could go back to jail. You know, he basically was violated on his probation or not probation.
Starting point is 00:02:37 probation, his parole. And the judge put him on, like, the supervised release for, like, a year. First, he couldn't travel. First, he can do this. Then the feds raided his crib and claimed they found some stuff. And now it's going back in front of the judge again. So, you know, remember, he was locked up for about, like, 45 days or so. Remember he was locked up, what I said with Diddy.
Starting point is 00:02:59 And then they let him go. But now he's going back to court, and they're going to be doing, these hearings to see what's good. And these hearings basically are yo, we ran up in your crib, found some shit you shouldn't have around, go back to jail.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Now, this is super interesting. The damn feds they're not prioritized in 6-9. This is why it always tripped me out when I heard like rappers say, yo, he got a badge. Yo, they've raided 6-9's
Starting point is 00:03:35 house or try to violate him more than other rappers who never told you know this this myth about like you tell and you have like this invisible badge or remember people used to be like you know yeah the reason they don't do nothing to him is because the police is probably following him around to make nigger come on come on bro come on anyway uh shout to my people in georgia by way checking in the chat you know what I mean let me know where you watching from everything like that so tomorrow he will be in federal court the judge the judge judge did not keep it light with them last time.
Starting point is 00:04:10 They claimed they found some shit at the crib. Here's the thing. You know, he has some plausible deniability. Yo, other people live here too. While I'm on this supervised release, da, da, da, duh. You know, there's a few more things that, you know, it'll probably come up in court.
Starting point is 00:04:31 I won't mention here, right? Anyway. So, that's how. in tomorrow. We're going to do the LeBron James and Kevin Gates a little back and forth. I'm actually really surprised LeBron responded. Why is LeBron responding to Kevin Gates?
Starting point is 00:04:49 When his team is down 0-1. That boy ain't chasing. That boy is not chasing a motherfucking. He ain't chasing Michael Jordan. He must be chasing some other type of naked. I don't know what he got going on. Why the hell is LeBron respond? to Kevin Gates after his team got mollywapped by Anthony Edwards respectfully.
Starting point is 00:05:17 Now, I'm going to lie to you. Him responding, I'm not knocking the response, the timing of the response in the moment of why we all know in which is basketball, and this is again another legacy year. Some people feel like his team is stacked, right? We're not really stacked. He got Luca. They're like, yo, you're going to win the championship this year, buddy.
Starting point is 00:05:38 He's down on one. And he's coming on line and make a public statement pretty much, you know, shading Kevin Gates. Now, granted, I'm completely on his side with this. But this kind of helps prove Kevin Gates' point. You know, anytime a nigga get online to do this, it's hell in the crib. You know, she's looking at you like, so you're not going to say nothing? You're going to let this bitch nigga violate me like that? You're not going to say nothing, nigga?
Starting point is 00:06:09 That's exactly what's going on in the crib. There's no Taco Tuesdays until he got online. Everybody know if you ever had a girl, your girl, sometimes you would let something roll off your shoulder a slide, but she going to look at you with that face of disgust. Like, you, you, you're going to, you don't, you don't let that nigga do that? And here's the thing. You almost got to go say some shit. Otherwise, she ain't sucking your dick with the same spit viscosity.
Starting point is 00:06:46 For the next month, it ain't going to hit the same, man. She ain't hit you with the gawgog three million no more. The spin cycle with the tongue is not happening. She's going to give you the lazy head and be like, nigger, put it in, nigga. So you got to go hard now, you know what I mean? So I get it. LeBron is fighting for his fucking household, man.
Starting point is 00:07:06 I get it, dog. You just clocked in? We just started. We just started, people. Somebody said, day five shouldn't include Kevin Gates News. We don't got that else going on. The thing about streaming every day is that I'm going to have to start mixed up with some RELs or we're going to just have to do general jacking for topics like segments or start, you know, looking at some shit that's happening in the real world. Like tonight, we're going to look at this little, not little, but the Carmelo Anthony thing.
Starting point is 00:07:38 You know, I've seen a lot of people, a lot of reactions about it. I don't really know what's going on with it. I'm going to examine what's going on with it on stream. Let's try to figure it out. Somebody who was supposedly his dad reached out. I was like, yo, we want to, we want you to, like, you know, break this down and bring more attention to it. I don't know if it's a real dad, but I'm like, all right. But anyway, to give you a recap of what the hell happened, Kevin Gates made this video.
Starting point is 00:08:14 This is how the conversation came up. We were just looking at, like, couples and people in the league. we were talking about how LeBron do the little handshake with Savannah. Right. And then I came, I was like, maybe I know this shit that people
Starting point is 00:08:35 don't notice. But I'm like, they was like talking about what if you had LeBron money? I'm like, man, he wanted the greatest players to ever play the game. But I wouldn't want to trade places with him. And they was like,
Starting point is 00:08:53 why not? Why you wouldn't win the money? I say because I don't like the way Savannah look at LeBron. I like the way them white women look at LeBron. Like when soon as he walked out that they just be like, Oh, ho. Now, I kind of gave a breakdown in like my pain about what Kevin Gates is saying. And by the way, all due respect to Kevin Gates,
Starting point is 00:09:18 but I thought his comment was ludicrous, right? the wife of an NBA player or the wife of anybody for 20-some years yeah he's not going to look like them white women who'll be looking at LeBron they want to in their mind they're in a scene of black
Starting point is 00:09:38 like they're looking at him like he's just a physical specimen that they would like like to have him bend them over and donkey fuck him right like there's nothing they're like oh he's probably a good person, he's probably a good father. It's probably just like, yo, I don't even like black men, but that is LeBron.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Do you get what I'm saying? So, yeah, the way they're looking at him, and also they're looking at him like a walking paycheck, right? Like, we think these girls are popping up there to just be seen? That fuck most of them players who got like a max contract because that's going to change their lives. Of course they're going to look at him like, it's a very lustful look to think that you could compare a couple of
Starting point is 00:10:20 groupies how they look at a man compared to how his wife's supposed to look at. Now, granted, here's the thing. And this is another reason why I say, you know, we don't know what's up with LeBron and Savannah. We see little videos and little nuggets, but we don't know how they really are. We don't really know that after the nigger come through, after dropping 60 points, 14 rebounds, 18 assists, he come home with the nastiest. The niggins like 45. I got to imagine when he gets to the crib,
Starting point is 00:10:54 you got to give him some icy, hot, Bengay and motherfucking robotussing, and he got probably the nastiest, stinkest athlete's foot known to man. Okay? And I got to imagine that Savannah for 20 years been over there shaving off them bunions, giving them a foot massage,
Starting point is 00:11:15 holding him down, and probably sucking them toes afterwards. Who knows God knows what they do? So I would imagine. I imagine that, you know, the reason why they're probably still in a happy relationship is that she's doing some shit that he like. But is she supposed to just have this look of lust on her face every single time in public? Plus, another thing, here's the thing. They got inside jokes.
Starting point is 00:11:37 A lot of times, I really think a lot of people don't know most celebrities. Like, especially like LeBron, like we see so much of him that we think we know him, but we don't. Like, have we really heard these, like, off-the-cuff conversations? with LeBron that might expose the type of person he really is other than this contrived image. We don't really see that shit at all. This is why people are so shocked like LeBron going into his villain era. Nah, this is probably like LeBron saying, I'm about to leave the league anyway. I've been wanting to say this shit.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Fuck y'all niggas. A lot of times we don't really know these guys. LeBron is giving us a carefully prepared package of opinions, of a persona, of a persona, of everything. everything. I mean, for God's sake, he's the only nigga. The nigga ain't had a cheating allegation this whole time. It's the first black band that ever do that. That's good.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Never heard that, you know what I mean? He had an argument. We never heard nothing bad about LeBron. We never heard that LeBron. Does LeBron smoke weed? Like, we don't know nothing bad about the nigga, bro. Like, we got to give, even if we think about Mike, Michael Jordan. He's a gambler. he's like they had a few things about him that they were like if only he didn't do that LeBron he's as good as they come bro so all I'm saying is that
Starting point is 00:13:07 LeBron and his wife we can't put our like I'm gonna be honest with you I think Savannah's a very fine woman for a woman to be with the man like LeBron always know her role I've never seen her speak out of turn. She ain't never Aisha Curry that nigger. I ain't see yet. She presents herself and looks like the ultimate family woman. She always got the kids looking
Starting point is 00:13:40 nice. She's always super supportive. She's clearly made her life the life of the family and what LeBron got going on. She's not one of them loud, ratchet chicks who think they're the main character. No, she's chilled. For everything that we see
Starting point is 00:14:01 with some of these basketball wives, Some of the goofiness. Savannah, and we don't, again, we don't know how it is behind closed doors. Maybe they've had arguments. Maybe they've split up. Maybe they've been, not split, like, you know, like had these on and off period where they're, damn, they're like on the brain club, whatever. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:22 And that's how it's supposed to be. We shouldn't know. It's between them. So I think Kevin Gates is kind of putting on his own mentality of the little bit. He's looking at LeBron like the type of woman I want has to look at me like I'm a God. We showed it when we showed the Brittany Renner stuff. Brittany Renner don't walk until he tells her to come. She don't speak unless he tells her to talk.
Starting point is 00:14:56 That's Kevin Gates. Maybe some, maybe that's the Islamic Muslim stuff or that's just Kevin Gates. But clearly he enjoys that and that dynamic with women who, would submit to that dynamic. But not everybody like Denver. Okay? They be dicked out. But it's like I noticed when he go do the handshake with the main player on his team,
Starting point is 00:15:26 which is dead. It's like you act like I'm bothering you, bitch. Like, I'm the greatest player in the world, one of them. Like top five, top ten, I'm one of them. And I'm in the playoffs. And you act like, you act like the warden of the jail. Like you came in the police me. Like, you ain't.
Starting point is 00:15:57 Like, you're not dicked out like these white women. This dicked out about me and him. Like, so, like, I just, I couldn't do it. I couldn't do it, bro. Because when I've been around that dude, that dude just, his spirit so loving and giving, like, Like, it hurt me. It hurt me to see that. Like, you down the jet away from my partner, man.
Starting point is 00:16:24 Don't do that. Man, you dive on the floor behind that, nigga, man. Dive on the floor behind it. But, you know, like, I know a lot of people going to hate what I just said, but I'm going to be honest. Like, if everybody liked me, then I'm pussy so we could do whatever you want to do about it. I'm going to die about everything I say. So I just, I love LeBron and I hate that for him, bro.
Starting point is 00:16:45 I hate that he got to go through that. as a man i hate that he got to go through that bro in the playoff now this is a wild assumption now he says he he he's been around lebron i don't know if he knows lebron he's making it seem like lebron is a nigger who who's like imprisoned by this woman right like like he's not having a good time like lebron is suffering in silence like many men do uh i don't know i think sometimes the internet will just make you feel that way and also we like lebronald more than we like Savannah because we know or we care about LeBron more than Savannah, you know, respectfully.
Starting point is 00:17:24 The reason why I'll also say that, like, I've seen another, I seen a clip go up recently. Let me see if I can find it. And I saw a lot of people get like super defensive or maybe it was dependent on where you read it or read the comments about it at. Let me see, can I find it here? No, it's probably on Shady routine.
Starting point is 00:17:48 and it's a clip of Kai Sinat in the car with his girl and his girl basically says he looks like a rat or whatever and it's clear they're joking around right it's clear they're joking around but everybody just looks at it to say damn why she this is a clip right here that girl told me for Spider-Man he told me for Superman whole time
Starting point is 00:18:16 I'm starting Jack i'm starting shot starting shot you know for me she told me was body you ratatooie now a lot of people felt like she was you know you know they try to compile a whole narrative yo first she said her type was this type of guy it didn't match how kison at looks or whatever now she's basically clowning him this and third so people are trying to act like maybe kai just likes her way more than she likes him. I think that's complete bullshit. You know, but that's to kind of correlate to the brawn point,
Starting point is 00:18:56 we don't know how to the hell the dynamic is between them, right? Like, there was this one clip, and I've seen people try to do the same thing. By the again, that was a joke, clear, obvious joke. Like, Kai posted that. He wouldn't post that if he probably had a big problem with it, right? There's a clip of him, like, playing the video game and, like, his wife, like, in the background,
Starting point is 00:19:24 and people are like, yo, she got to be, annoying because this thing it's probably just dropped 70 points at the crypto arena. He came home. All he wanted to do is play some football and she's just yapping at him. Listen. LeBron is a huge fan of Madden. Is this how you making me bring in a new year?
Starting point is 00:19:41 Yeah, that's a folk. I want to play the whole thing. It's funny because Bron was a big time gamer back then, but he stopped. Oh my God. Can we just get the clip without everybody speaking over this shit, man? It's like LeBron playing Madden.
Starting point is 00:19:53 LeBron playing Madden. they got Savannah in the back This how you're making me bringing a new year This how you making me bring in the new year Man I mean listen I've been in Atlanta all weekend I got my birthday celebration I went basketball games
Starting point is 00:20:14 And people So just to pause it right here and just say People looked at this and be like damn The nigger got to explain himself to his wife why you could get an hour to play some Madden. And obviously, I don't think that's the reality of it. But of course, people put their own narratives like, damn. So you tell me you the greatest basketball player in the world, a billionaire.
Starting point is 00:20:37 You did all these things in the weekend. And your chick won't give you an hour to play, Mad? You celebrate my birthday with you, my mom's good. Ohio State crushing loss. So I got to get a darn. It's starting to year off with time. So yeah And just off of this one little
Starting point is 00:20:57 TikTok or whatever story thing Some people were like I wonder if this chick is annoying You know what I mean So people build their own narratives Going back to the Kevin Gaye shit I think he's done In the fucking playoffs
Starting point is 00:21:11 Your main player Act like You have a look on your face like I could be doing more Like what more like I loved you for you Like when I met you
Starting point is 00:21:28 You look like Lamar Odom Like Now wait Who Who is he talking about Is he saying LeBron look like Lamar Odom Or is he talking about LeBron's wife
Starting point is 00:21:42 Because if he's If he's say Lamar's Lebron's wife Look like Lamar Oden when he just met her Chad We gotta clarify that Because who are talking about Chad Because I'm talking about that
Starting point is 00:21:59 Because I'm gonna keep it up being with you If he pulled up on Stephen A He got to pull up on this nigga now Did she look? Savannah James High School This is the She had a let no Lamar Odom
Starting point is 00:22:33 You know what's so funny I could see Like you know I'm trying to go back in a way back machine I could see LeBron probably feeling He was fortunate to get To get with a girl like this Back in high school Before all the fame and everything
Starting point is 00:23:11 Right? Like, I'm pretty sure she was a little pop, miss a little popping in high school. LeBron James, without the basketball stuff, yes, he was on the basketball team, but LeBron James, LeBron had a face only a mother could love. Let's be honest. LeBron was looking like he was pushing 45.
Starting point is 00:23:30 His hairline was already starting to do the Michael Jackson, Moorwalk. Yeah. So I could see, like, you know, the dynamic. at that point was like, yo, beauty and the beast. And the beauty definitely was no damn LeBron. Now as the more famous he got and Richie got,
Starting point is 00:23:52 now people probably look at him and be like, they're critical of her because we're used to not seeing people stay down with the day one. You're used to see them upgrade with the money. As soon as the money comes, you just get this chick with the, you know what I mean? Like, I don't know if they expect LeBron to be with a chick with a bea of death. You get what I'm saying? Be able like a BB abandoned or something.
Starting point is 00:24:17 But I don't think look wise you can critique her. You look at Kevin Gates face. Babe, don't laugh at that. Now, here's the thing. Savannah O. Brittany Renner of fate. Britney Renner, you can't be laughing. And I'm actually surprised Britney Renner even laughed at that because
Starting point is 00:24:41 Britney Renner is all about empowerment or empowering women and laughing at LeBron James' wife's looks possibly it's not empowering I ain't nobody gonna fuck what you about there you heard me? You can laugh if you want to
Starting point is 00:25:03 you gotta walk out of the room you ain't interrupt in your you ain't interrupt in my bill you already interrupted it. This is how the conversation came up. We were just looking at like couples and people in the league. And we were talking about
Starting point is 00:25:22 how LeBron do the little handshake with Savannah. All right, bet. So this pretty much happens. And LeBron clearly responded today. Responded today by posting up a picture of him and his wife. And in the caption, it says, Kings don't concern themselves with the opinions of peasants.
Starting point is 00:25:47 We're to next queen. Let's get it. All right. So, you know, obviously, I think she probably was on his headtop, though. But, you know, he posted a little post to get shit back in order. I will say this. It kind of, the relationships that end up last in the long, longest. And this is where I think the problem is. People on social media are so used to getting all
Starting point is 00:26:15 the details between a couple, whether married or not. They know about every fight, every argument that is documented online on social media, on somebody's vlog, on somebody's stream, in some comment section that we take these little moments, to think we know these people. LeBron and Savannah seemingly are pretty private. By the way, think about this, the couples that have lasted, we've seen a trend of them go away from. Remember when we used to see every argument that money bag,
Starting point is 00:26:48 Yo, and Ariad online? Like, that doesn't seem like the recipe to make a relationship last, when you're going to have now people outside the relationship being cheerleaders and picking sides and be like, yo, why does he always do that? Man, you could do better. You could, yeah. Think about Alicia Keys Swiss beats. Their relationship lasts a long time.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Congrats to them. We don't see, we don't even know what they, them niggas be at. Jay Z. Beyonce, if we didn't, like, they had to bring us into their conversation by saying, yeah, that nigga did cheat, make it with a good here. But we didn't know. We never saw them argue. I mean, well, we did see the little fist of cuff in the elevator, but we didn't see much. So we have no idea what the dynamic is between. these two or really any successful married couple.
Starting point is 00:27:42 So let them rock out, man. I just want LeBron to get back to winning games, man, because brother, stop focusing on Kevin Gates and focus on the goddamn Minnesota Timberwolves, nigger. How the hell they lost yesterday? Holy shit, they got to ask me, too. All right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Let's keep this show on the road. What else is there for me to talk about? So I kind of wanted to get into this, but I don't know if I'm going to, we're already a late. I don't want to like draw down the tempo or the stream if we get into this, let's call Carmelo Anthony's situation. If you don't know, basically there's a young black boy
Starting point is 00:28:29 who killed a young white boy. I'm going to believe that like a track meet or something like that. He killed him. I believe he stabbed him and the kid died. he was since released on bond, but there's been really a polarizing reaction to this, not only because it's black and white, it's people are talking about things like bullying,
Starting point is 00:28:57 and also there's a lot of public support for the person who did the killing, right? Some people feel like, you know, black people are just supporting him because, you know, not necessarily for this situation, because of other situations, black people get the short end of the stick. Some people feel like,
Starting point is 00:29:14 yo, you can't blame a kid. When bullying goes so far, a nigga might snap and kill a nigga. And some people feel like this is more to the story. I don't know the full thing. And I kind of want to get into it. I haven't really invested in that particular story overall yet.
Starting point is 00:29:35 And why not? So late night stream, we could probably get into it, right? Let me see if I can find it. I had it on standby. I like, there was supposedly a little documentary that kind of broke it down. So we'll kind of go through that. I'm going to try to also, maybe not tonight.
Starting point is 00:30:05 I'm going to pull some documents on as much as I can through the court system and see what the current status is. And I don't know if there's any videos. This. I think it is. Okay, I'll just Google it. I thought it was Carmel and Anthony with a K. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:50 Where the heck is the story? Does anyone have a good video that I could watch? I want something that kind of sums up the whole thing. I know the mother spoke. Let me tell you this. With all due respect, anytime you see these niggins start talking, all they do is,
Starting point is 00:31:24 all they do is like they incite race wars. And here's the thing. I want to analyze this, but I also want to take that, you know, I don't know if it's possible. I'm hoping this is not just a clear race situation. But anytime you see Roland Martin and them that you check into a topic, all they do is put black people against white people and line their pockets.
Starting point is 00:31:47 Like, that's it. Like, they have no type of, like, obligation to just being objective to, like, facts if it was a raceless situation. All they do is just race bait. And I think that's sad. Alright, let me see. So somebody say it's a race war again? Oh, man. Damn, can I get a fucking good video on this?
Starting point is 00:32:17 We're the documentary niggas. Tragic story. I thought I had in my email. Let me see. I didn't have my email. Oh, I do have it here. Great. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:50 Actually, this video won't tell me shit either. Nah, damn. All right, we might have to piece this together ourselves. The thing is I'm just kind of behind on this entire story. All right, let's get an emotional farewell in Frisco. Good evening, everybody. I'm Casey Stiego. Private funeral services were held today for the teen student.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Oh, I'll just go to law and crimes. They probably have a good one. Okay, I'll go to law and crimes. So we want to get the initial story, right? The initial story, and then we'll go from there. When did this happen? Track meet. Why do they just call him track meet sub the
Starting point is 00:33:39 Yeah, I could tell this about me some racial shit Right, everybody knows the guy's name by now because at first I was just like Carmelo Anthony The basketball player like holy Yo, I thought this thing was a shooter now he's stabbing people? No joke, you know, I mean, I was just The high school athlete accused of stabbing and killing another high school athlete out of track meet in Texas is now out on bond This is video of Carmelo Anthony leaving the county jail per WFAA in Dallas. A judge lowered his bond by a major amount this week. And a fundraising site has raised more than $416,000 for his legal defense, even after he allegedly told police he did it, leaving a brother to die in his twins' arms after he was allegedly stabbed in the heart.
Starting point is 00:34:37 We're on the case presented by law and crime. I'm Chris Stewart. Cases like the one that we're talking about right now get lives of their own when people use them to talk about issues like self-defense and race in America. That is exactly what's happening in the case of Carmelo Anthony, a high school sports star, now an accused murderer. A judge lowered Anthony's bond from a million dollars down to 250,000 this week. This is the new video per WFAA in Dallas of Anthony walking free. He will have to wear a GPS monitor beyond house arrest, check in. with the court each week and if he doesn't do that, he'll go back into custody.
Starting point is 00:35:21 We have the probable cause documents from police that lay out what officers say happened when they responded to a high school track me in the middle of the day on April 2nd for the report of a stabbing. One officer writes that when he first made contact with Anthony and told him to put his hands in the air, Anthony allegedly said, I was protecting myself. The officer said that Anthony then told him, quote, he put his hands on me. And when the officer said he had the alleged suspect in custody. Anthony allegedly said, quote, I'm not alleged, I did it. Several witnesses also came forward to tell police what they saw and will dive into their accounts in just a moment. But I want to first talk about the victim in this case. His name
Starting point is 00:36:03 is Austin Metcalf. Metcalf was there to compete in this track meet as well. He was a high school football star in his own right. He was a junior at Frisco's Memorial High School. He was... chat, you know, at least the angle I'm taking while I'm trying to do some information gathering before I could give you guys an opinion on what I think, whatever. Here's some red flags, chat. Here's some red flags. I believe they're using, I don't know if it's a mugshot of the kid, which is the Carmela Anthony kid.
Starting point is 00:36:37 When they're finding pictures of the nigger who died, they got him just looking as innocent as a motherfucker. You know what I mean? Like, yo, this guy was a nice. guy on earth you know what I mean now granted I'm not making any assertions yet I'm in a collecting fact-finding phase however this is media tactics let's give this thing looking like he's a demon and this thing looking like an angel and you're gonna make up the your mind kind of subliminally school football star in his own right he was a junior at frisco's memorial high
Starting point is 00:37:13 school he was team MVP of the football season last year and his dad says he had a 4.0 GPA in the classroom, and he was planning on playing college football. And when you look at his social media, you can see he was serious about it. Austin posted multiple picks from recruiting trips to places like the University of Arkansas. That is a big time division one school. The suspect, Carmelo Anthony, he was captain of his high school's football team. That was Frisco's Centennial High School, which is just about a 14-minute drive away from where Metcalf went to school.
Starting point is 00:37:43 These two schools separated by roughly seven miles. Carmelo Anthony, class of 2025, Centennial High School, Frisco, Texas. This is video of Anthony miced up at a tournament that he linked to on his ex account. On social media, Anthony shows that he was getting offers to play college football. Here are the posts from two Division III schools that apparently wanted him on their team. On Anthony's huddle profile page, which is a social media platform for football players, Anthony made his bio, quote, God has shown you the right path. Just take it.
Starting point is 00:38:12 Anthony's path on April 2nd led him to a confrontation with Austin Metcalf that could put him in jail for the rest of his life. So here's what we know based off what police say happened. Multiple schools were competing in this track meet that had to be delayed because of weather. If you've ever run track, typically all the schools involved have their spots around the track where they hang out between events, and in this case, where they were waiting out some weather. Austin's team apparently had a tent and Anthony went under that tent and somehow, words were exchanged and Anthony was told to leave. In the probable cause document,
Starting point is 00:38:47 witnesses say Anthony reaches into his bag and says, quote, touch me and see what happens. Austin then touches Anthony to tell him to move. And Anthony then, according to witnesses, says, punch me and see what happens. Austin then grabbed Anthony again. And that is when a witness says Anthony takes a knife out and stabs Austin Metcalfe in the chest.
Starting point is 00:39:06 Austin then grabs his chest and calls for help. He would die in his twin brother's arms near the track. This is a law in- His 20-slide immediately? Crime legal alert. Did you know that children under the process law firm's account? Hed-O-F-A-A-TV in the hours after all of this played out? He's like, make me move, Austin grabbed this backpack. This kid, I try to whip around the fast as I could, but I didn't see the stab.
Starting point is 00:39:41 But then I look at my brother and then I'm not going to talk about the rest. Austin seemed to be very close with his family. Here's a picture of his brother with their dad. Now, as far as Anthony, police say he ditched the knife and ran before he was arrested by officers who know in their reports that Anthony was historically crying when arrested and asked if Metcalf would be okay. Anthony seemed to believe what happened was self-defense. Police, though, have not seen it that way. Here's the probable cause affidavit. You can see Anthony is facing a charge of murder.
Starting point is 00:40:11 And initially, he was held on $1 million bond. And that gets us to the update that we are following this week after a hearing about that bond. At a court hearing, Anthony, his attorneys, their family argued that the bond was just too high, that it was unfair to be that high, that Anthony had to remain behind bars ahead of his trial, which could be months from now. A judge decided to lower Anthony's bond from a million dollars to $250,000. Cameras weren't allowed in the courtroom, but this is what we're hearing about what happened. Anthony's parents testified and argued that their son is a straight-A student.
Starting point is 00:40:44 that he's never been in trouble before, and he's the oldest of four children. He also worked two jobs, including currently as a cashier at a grocery store, and on top of that, he was captain of his high school's football team. According to CBS News, Anthony's attorney wanted Bond lowered from $1 million to $150,000. Prosecutors didn't call witnesses at this hearing, but they said bond should stay the same because they argue, that's typically where Bond is set for murder cases in Collin County, Texas. Since Austin Metcalf's death, the Anthony family has been able to raise quite a bit of money for Carmelo Anthony's legal defense.
Starting point is 00:41:18 This is the fundraising page on the site Give Send Go. It's similar to a GoFundMe, and at this point, you can see it's raised more than $416,000. This page was started by the Anthony family, and it reads, quote, the narrative being spread is false, unjust, and harmful. As a family of faith, we are deeply grateful for all of your friends. your support during this trying period. Your prayers and assistance mean more to us now more than ever. Comments on the side of the page show people giving money. Okay. Um, I'll skip passes for a little bit.
Starting point is 00:41:52 So let me ask you out a question. Because I heard bullying. Now, is it a possibility that this kid was, um, he was being bullied by this other kid and he finally had enough and snapped. Because there's a few questions. Why do you have a knife in your bag? How long has his behavior been happening?
Starting point is 00:42:25 Now, none of that actually really justifies him murdering the dude. But also, if we're talking about murder and what charge would be applicable, I think it's also worth noting to consider. It seems like there was also, if the reports are correct, he was trying to bait that nigga, too. All right, nigger. All right, just hit me. It's like, imagine if I have a gun and I'm telling someone just do something or I'm telling them to do a specific action that I could use the gun, right?
Starting point is 00:42:59 That becomes a real tricky type of situation. I'm in many ways the go-to site for defendants you find. I see some people saying it. That could be consideration for premeditated murder. Now, I still think premeditated murder is a hard sell because the mere fact that even afterwards, he said, did he die? Is he okay? I don't think he intended to kill him, but his actions definitely killed him. So premeditated murder, the intent would be to kill him.
Starting point is 00:43:35 I don't know if that was the intent. But if you're asking someone to do things that you could do another thing, it is premeditated. I just don't know if it's premeditated murder. And themselves. But is there, I don't think there's such a thing as premeditated. You can't say assault. The person died was a manslaughter?
Starting point is 00:43:55 Yeah. See, manslaughter wouldn't be premeditated, right? I don't know, I guess it would be, right? Hmm, gotta see the statues on that. It's an interesting legal situations. It's the same site where people have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the legal defense of Luigi Mangione, the man who's accused of killing United Health,
Starting point is 00:44:13 because GoFundMe does the past, it's been a site that's become a go-to place for people raising money for- Anthony's father, was reportedly asked during this hearing why the anthony's haven't used the hundreds of thousands of dollars already raised to bail their son out of jail. It might be a million dollar bond, but in some cases you can get a bail bondsman to cover most of it and you just have to put forward 10%. He said to that question, the site isn't a bond fund. Metcalf's family also has a fundraising site, but the money for that, that was used in part to lay their son to rest. Right now, that page has more than $341,000.
Starting point is 00:44:48 Metcalf was laid to rest last week at a church in Frisco. The Metcalfs are encouraging people to donate money to create a scholarship on their son's behalf. Anthony's bail was lowered to $250,000, and we'll talk about why the judge did that in just a moment, and why at least one defense attorney believes that was a fair decision. The court said that Anthony would have to be on house arrest, wear that electronic monitoring device, and we'll check in with the court each week on Fridays. According to WFAA, the judge said in the courtroom where every seat was filled, that deputies provided more security than she had ever seen for a case,
Starting point is 00:45:23 which is just an example of the attention that this story is receiving in Texas and beyond. Joining us now, once again, to talk about this case is criminal defense attorney bridge. Okay. It is more clear in how the law says it, as opposed to where if Carmelo Anthony goes into court and makes the argument, you know, maybe Austin Metcalf was bigger than I was. I was afraid for my life in that moment and I was just trying to defend myself. If it's an equal force law, that that doesn't seem like it could line up particularly well as a defense. Well, that's why the defense moves forward generally with the trial setting, right?
Starting point is 00:45:57 So they can bring all of those facts out in trial and give that explanation to a jury. Okay. In wake of this tragic incident, our family has been under attack. Whatever you think, what happened between Carmelo and the Metcalfe Boys, My three younger children, my husband, and I didn't do anything to deserve to be threatened, harassed, and lied about. The family of a star athlete turned murder suspect accused of killing a fellow athlete out of track meet now is speaking out in this news conference saying they've become the victim of threats. This video per KDFW. And at that news conference, a shocking moment.
Starting point is 00:46:41 The victim's father there in person, he was escorted out by police. The suspect in this case is no longer in custody. He's out on bond after a decision that some have called controversial by the judge to lower it by $750,000. It's a move that's now made that judge. The target of internet hate raising security concerns. And we'll also talk about the suspect's family and what they said about accusations they've used money from a crowdfunding website to boost their lifestyle, including the accusation, they moved into a $900,000 home.
Starting point is 00:47:17 We're on the case presented by law and crime. I'm Chris Stewart. We have a lot to update you on in a case that we've been following out of Texas, in the Dallas area in the death of Austin Metcalf, a high school athlete who was allegedly murdered by another athlete whose name is Carmelo Anthony. Let's talk about Metcalf first. He was a star athlete in football, but also in track,
Starting point is 00:47:47 which is why he was at the track meet on April 2nd. He was MVP of his high school's football team. He was also an A student. He died after being stabbed at that track meet in Frisco, Texas, on April 2nd. Now, the suspect in this case was a fellow athlete at this track meet competing for another high school. His name's Carmelo Anthony. He's charged with murder. This is video of him leaving jail this week after he posted Bond, this video from WFAA TV.
Starting point is 00:48:12 Now, the reason that Carmelow was able to post Bond was it was significantly low, after a court appearance this week. Judge Angela Tucker lowered it from a million dollars to 250,000. Tucker did not allow cameras in the courtroom, but according to KDFW TV, Anthony's attorney said a million dollar bond was too high and it wasn't necessary to keep Anthony from fleeing the charges. The attorney also argued, quote, this family needs to be able to survive.
Starting point is 00:48:40 Prosecutors argued that bond should be kept at a million dollars because they say that is the standard bond amount for murder case. All right. I'll start giving some opinions as we're kind of getting some more information. We haven't gotten to this racial element yet. So I guess I'm going to have to hit the pundits for their interpretation of why it's racial. From all I note, this is an incident between two kids.
Starting point is 00:49:06 There's definitely more to the story. But one kid seemed like he may have been provoked, right? and not necessarily provoked to commit murder, but the provocation led to him murdering the next person. Now, once we throw in the fact, black and white, one looks like they come from maybe a more affluent family or at least a family where, you know, when they show people like background and stuff,
Starting point is 00:49:34 the only good picture they could show this kid, or not a good picture, not saying they don't have good pictures. They only show the kid of the picture of him looking like he's at some type of, you know, workout training camp. thing and then when they're showing the other dude he looks super younger standing with his dad you see dad and mom it's a complete family just looks like the perfect like what the what they say the perfect family is you know i mean mom and dad in the house you're living in some suburbs so that does kind of you know probably add on to why people feel there is a racial element there because
Starting point is 00:50:08 usually people they'll demonize you based on how to picture the media uses, whatever the case. So we'll actually get to that. But the bond situation, I actually, I actually, I don't disagree with the bond being reduced. And I don't think it's for any racial reasons. I'll tell you why. I don't disagree with it being reduced.
Starting point is 00:50:34 I think there's a reasonable argument, not saying it work, but there's a reasonable argument that the defense could have that, hey, this isn't a standard murder case. this is a case where we are, we're telling you now, we're going in for self-defense. You get what I'm saying? And based off of just the little information we know, based off what he said, even though, by the way, him running away from the crime scene, that wasn't a good thing. But he admitted that he did it. He was asking about the dude.
Starting point is 00:51:09 He basically was kind of almost saying self-defense shit as soon as he got caught. let that be proven in court, but you could reduce it from, you could reduce the bail a little bit. If million is a standard for all murder cases, I'm thinking of that being, yo, you just walked up on someone and shot him. Okay, a million dollars.
Starting point is 00:51:31 But if there is a reasonable, if a reasonable inference could be made at, this shit could be self-defense, lower it a bit, still to a significant amount, because quarter million dollars, still a significant amount. But I have no problem. problem with them lowering it okay obviously that's gonna cause a rift because now people are
Starting point is 00:51:48 going to be looking at looking at like this is a black judge black judge black defendant white family then we're seeing people have uproar by the way i'm gonna get to i seen aiden ross like donated ones and look like people really give a fuck about this shit okay cases in colin county texas in the wake of the decision the backlash against judge tucker has been fierce you can see her account on X is now private. Collin County, Texas, also put this out on social media, saying, quote, we are aware of a social media post on this platform that appears to docks a sitting judge.
Starting point is 00:52:25 Sharing a judge's private information is a crime and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Tucker is a Republican, and she's the first black judge in Collin County, which is near Dallas. She reportedly said in court during Anthony's most recent bond here, that the security surrounding this case is already the most... We already went through this. Right. Okay, so let's get to this press conference.
Starting point is 00:52:49 The fundraiser has been established to provide comprehensive assistance to the Anthony family as they navigate the many challenges surrounding Carmelo's case. Prosecutors asked Anthony's father during the bond hearing why the family wasn't using the money to get Carmelo out of jail when his bond was at a million dollars. To which the father reportedly replied that the bond was, the site was not a quote bond fun let's get to this. Another very notable moment at this news conference happened before it began. And it was Austin Metcalf's dad appearing in person in sunglasses stand.
Starting point is 00:53:30 Let me watch the press conference real quick. I haven't seen this in full. Everybody has commentary on this. Huh? I don't get to the mom. Your journalist. your weather journalist, how the weather was that day and that time. Like so many other families, we wanted to give our children the future we did not have.
Starting point is 00:53:54 My husband worked hard every single day to provide for us. To make sure we're in the best financial position possible. As a stay-at-home mom, I made it my life's mission to ensure that we're in the best financial position possible. to ensure our children are loved, nurtured, and supported every step of the way. In wake of this tragic incident, our family has been under attack. Whatever you think what happened between Carmelo and the Metcalf Boys, my three younger children, my husband, and I didn't do anything to deserve to be threatened, harassed, and lied about. The lies and false accusations that have been said about us, especially over the past week, has been overwhelming.
Starting point is 00:54:50 The lies in their amplification put my family in danger, as well as everyone in our community, everyone involved in the investigation from the police, the attorneys, and the court staff. our address and my husband's previous employer's address has been put on all social media platforms my husband had to take a leave of absence because he's afraid what may happen to our family by the way these are reasonable things I think yeah this is a big story I imagine a lot of doxins happening yeah I would imagine it is move around time
Starting point is 00:55:28 I hear people are concerned that the dude is now living, not concerned, but they're like, yo, he's living in a mansion now. And he's clearly using that money to, no, I'm not looking at it like that. All right. I don't know if she says anything more important. But apparently this is some more details right here. This is a witness. Deal you hugely posted this.
Starting point is 00:55:52 Everyone in Texas is all about staying your ground and self-defense until that person doesn't look like me. This case is racially charged. And stick with me here. If the rolls were reversed, if Carmelo Anthony was 220 pounds with the, this twin brother picking on a white kid, putting hands on a white kid, and he got on alive. Y'all would say that he got exactly what was coming to him, and if he would have kept his hands to himself, he would still be here today. Because y'all want to say, oh, it's not self-defense. Austin and his brother are 220-pound football players, and Carmelo was 130 pounds. If you can't
Starting point is 00:56:19 visualize that, I'm one-eighth. Really? Okay. That's really good info. 22, 1-130, that's definitely a bang. I got 50 pounds on the kid. Not only were they both in his face, but one of them put hands on him. He was scared. You can't tell me that race isn't a thing because it's in my TikTok comments and I've seen hundreds of comments on Facebook. But if you flip this scenario and Carmelo Anthony was the aggressor in this situation and your opinion changed, you are racially biased. And to the white people in my comments calling me a white savior, God forbid I have empathy. Um, yeah, I mean, I'm not looking at this as a race thing, even though I think the racial element is more how the media
Starting point is 00:56:57 would portray. I'm just looking at it from a court sense. If somebody pushes you, could you shoot them? Could you stab them? I mean, this idea of stands your ground or self-defense is at what point do you fear for your life? Now, I think the witnesses, and I don't know if this was a witness. I don't know if she's a witness or just someone who probably has a difference of a pain about the situation compared to most people that probably sure is. skin color. I think it might just be a tough sell to say this is self-defense and stands your ground
Starting point is 00:57:40 unless maybe the way the white boy did whatever he did to him. It's a hard punch, pushed him to the ground. They surrounded him. But even then it's going to not help their case when they bring to the judge and the jury, yo we asked him to leave and he told us nah nigger
Starting point is 00:58:10 if you want me to leave you better put hands on me all right move nigger all right yo if you want me to leave you gotta punch me now the dude punches him then he stabs him if that's the story
Starting point is 00:58:26 that's gonna be a little bit tricky it's gonna be a little bit tricky if that's it right okay this is the few There's a recap of the funeral. Jesus Christ, there's so much info about this damn story. All right.
Starting point is 00:58:42 We're going to our, um, our pundit over here. Charleston White, he got some thoughts on this shit. Here we go. This was not a racial killing. So why other adults coming in playing a race game? The worst thing y'all could do is play the race game in this redneck county, nickel. That black judge, they are already working to get her out of her. She will not be a judge in college.
Starting point is 00:59:06 And if you're from the Dallas, Fort Worth area, you know them people don't play out there, Nick. They from out of town. These are outsiders. They will make an example out of that black kid. And black people will get him hung playing a race card. How dumb can you be? This is the time we're supposed to say, let's come together. Why can't we all get along?
Starting point is 00:59:31 This is that time so we can have his life. Is Charleston driving? I know he already got one eye and he's looking at the camera. and his hands, he's on some hands free shit. Or is, because I think his camera is flipped. So it looks like he's in a passenger seat, but I think this might be the driver's seat. They go hang that boy.
Starting point is 00:59:55 He deserved to go to prison. If you take a life, you may- Oh, never mind, he's not driving, because I see a car on this side. He's in a-house-about-said. I was about to say. I ain't supposed to be able to walk away with no consequences. It's consequences to your actions, right or wrong.
Starting point is 01:00:11 Even if you justified to take a life. Your life wasn't in danger. Now, here's the thing. Along with this whole race thing, I think it's like the OJ situation. Once it becomes a race thing, it's not necessarily about the crime. It's usually like, it's like basketball.
Starting point is 01:00:29 Yo, we might need this as a makeup call for a lot of fuck shit y'all do. And that's the unfortunate thing, because for the family of the deceased, the bigger story now becomes how are black people seen when they're stand in your ground versus someone that is white or non-black how they're seen when they're standing their ground. And it's not about the individual facts of that particular case.
Starting point is 01:00:57 It's basically, yo, white versus black. And I think for the victim's family, that might suck. Now, I do think it's helping Carmelo Because This is the only time I think we would rally behind a murderer Like, for example, And there's a little bit of this
Starting point is 01:01:24 With the Luigi Man Gion thing There are niggas who really don't believe he did it Or, and really, they know he did it It's like, they're just saying, Man, that nigger is a real nigger, man. like healthcare companies been fucking with us they've been eating good i'm glad somebody did something so they're hoping that he gets found innocent and they're also believing in these conspiracy theories that nah he could have been alone and how do we really know it was him yo he planned this so good
Starting point is 01:01:57 i was arguing my brother about it's my brother one of them people like we're at things giving dinner whatever we argued over this shit he's like why would he do all the smart shit to get caught to McDonald's and I'm like, but did you really, do you really think that this guy is like some fucking genius? Like, no, he's just a murderer. It's okay. Like, he could have murdered for a cause that you, like, you may be, not that you're down with the idea of murder, but you understand why people are mad at healthcare companies, but are we over here litigating because you're mad at health care companies or we're saying, did you murder the guy? And that's what I'm saying about this. Are we talking about stand your ground? Because I love these conversations about
Starting point is 01:02:36 stands your ground, right? Like I, you know, me being someone who, um, you catch me in pretty much every state but New York, New York in California, I'm going to have a licensed weapon on my hip. You get what I'm saying? And I make it my business dependent where I'm at to know these laws in, if it ever, God forbid, gets to a case where you have to use it, right? Like, for example, in many places. if you get punched, somebody's a sock shooting them out,
Starting point is 01:03:09 you can't just shoot somebody. It just doesn't work like that. Right? And so these ideas and conversations about self-defense and stands your ground, I get it and I love those, but I think it's going to get overshadowed by just straight black and white, bro.
Starting point is 01:03:25 Just straight black and white. You get what I'm saying? Now I see, I got to find some of the clips of people talking about. They're talking about bullying. They're talking about these other things. Anyway. Carmelo was wronged, dead wrong.
Starting point is 01:03:43 In the witness accounts of what he said, he grabbed a book bag. Let me tell black people how dumb y'all live. Don't you know they got a police report with an evidence of a knife and not a cleek sharpener? There's no such thing as a cleat sharpener. They have evidence a police report where they confiscated a knife. How dumb can y'all be? And black people, y'all don't have no compassion. for a parent who have to bury their child.
Starting point is 01:04:15 Y'all haven't extended no level of empathy for another dead kid. Black people, I hate that this kid will be sacrificed, but he's not from real, so I don't give a fuck about it. Fuck him. His daddy is a weak, nigga to me.
Starting point is 01:04:33 Nigel y'all out here in his $900,000-housand-housand-housand-dollar-rent. These people say y'all got four or five registered Fail businesses in many. Now, that's, I don't agree with Charleston with that. I think your racial bias comes out if you talk about anything but the incident. I don't care if he's living in a $20 million house right now. I don't care. You know, again, obviously there should be some oversight with how the money that is given for his legal defense, how it's used.
Starting point is 01:05:10 but that won't taint how I look at his character. His character will only be dictated on what did you do at that time? Does it stand up to the legal definition of stand your ground or self-defense or is it murdered? That's it. Anything else, people are interjecting their personal or their racial bias. Like Charleston White, love them. But him saying they have failed businesses, what that got to do with anything? It seems like you're saying that to say,
Starting point is 01:05:44 yo, this kid and his family, they're usually trying to get over with something. They're not good people. They're finessers. Which kind of shows a tint of, of course this nigga did it. Of course he's guilty. I don't like that.
Starting point is 01:06:03 Let's only talk about the incident, if you ask me. Make a mockery out of y'all. But your daddy, nigger, the dad ain't got nothing to say in this boy dead. You let the bitch, you weak, nigga. It's why the boy weak. You weak, that's why the boy weak. And the mama weak.
Starting point is 01:06:20 The nigga, she's doing all this goddamn talking, but he left out of your house with a knife. With a knife. Stay at home, mom. See, that doesn't matter, too. This whole stay at home. See, that's, again, but that is a point. I do believe, y'all heard me say before,
Starting point is 01:06:40 Spare the Rod, spoil the child. I believe that when you have a, child, I'm always flabbergasted when I hear that children are commit murders and robberies and are allowed to run the streets. I think a parent don't have a child if you can't fully supervise a child. You should be held accountable for, you know, like, for example, if I had a child and I have 50 guns here and my child just grab a gun because I'll keep one, blah, blah, blah, and he grabs it and said, man, I'm about to go kill this nigga who's talking to my bitch. And they do it.
Starting point is 01:07:17 They're probably coming to charge me too because not only was I negligent as a gun owner, I think doubly, like your negligent is a parent. So I do believe that if your kid is bringing a knife to school, as the mother and father, it's your fault. Absolutely. Now, stay at home, mom. We don't care about that shit. We're only talking about the relevant details.
Starting point is 01:07:41 If a child is carrying a knife, a gun, or any weapon, that is partially the fault of the parent. Because here's the thing, you also got to teach your kid. If they do have an issue, they should come to mommy and daddy. If they do have an issue, they should resolve it with doing these means, not taking a butcher knife or whatever knife to school. That is on the parents. And nobody cares about your daughter can't sleep because y'all getting deaf threats. son kill somebody somebody said well I keep hearing cleat sharpening let me Google what that is cleat sharpening tool it says it was a knife it's a cleat
Starting point is 01:08:36 sharpening just another round file it'll be difficult to stab someone with one okay so it was it was a knife that boy brother can't sleep from holding his brother dying you think people y'all are not the victims Carmelo Anthony you and your renting family Y'all are not homeowners in a town full of homeowners. Y'all are rent us. You're not even from here. And you're the wrong people that's not from here to cause trouble
Starting point is 01:09:19 and try to divide us from our good blacks. You're going to pay, Anthony family. They're going to. That's the uncle ruckets in it right there. They're going to hang. Your boy's going to suffer. See, right now, y'all don't know. The dad's a convicted felon.
Starting point is 01:09:36 They're gonna man, this kid. That got nothing to do with it. See, this part of it, I feel like Charleston is kind of pandering a bit to white folks. But also secondly, which I think is more important. Charleston is one of those guys. I don't even necessarily think that Charleston is just like an Uncle Tom. I think Charleston is one of them people where he's like a snobby black. Right?
Starting point is 01:10:03 where he's the one who he'll be like, stop walking on the lawn. Like, he's almost like commercial, commercial when it comes to shit like that. So when he's like shaming them, he's like, y'all rent, y'all don't even own
Starting point is 01:10:19 in a community filled with homeowners. I don't think necessarily he's just talking about them because they're black. I think he looks down on them. It's like a lot of homeowners in most communities, if somebody come in the neighborhood and they start bringing the property value down, those, the neighbors start resenting that motherfucker.
Starting point is 01:10:38 I think, and again, Charleston doesn't live there, but it appears that that's also going on. But it comes off overall like he's trying to pander to whites, though. I will say. He's going to pay as he should because they got all these dumb-ass black people playing a race card in a racist town. And I wouldn't call them racist.
Starting point is 01:11:00 Tyrol Day. They just don't like your kind. We're going to answer that question to try to answer it. Neither do I. I hate a victim-minded black person. I hate a black person that doesn't take accountability. I hate a criminal-minded black person. I hate a nigger that let his wife do I always speaking,
Starting point is 01:11:18 so I surely don't like that father. He let his bitch do all the talking, hollering and screaming. What all those emotions like the black woman have. Oh, man, that's a strike against the culture. Okay. apparently there's also apparently there's also another video you're speaking about we're gonna we're gonna get to this video
Starting point is 01:11:43 give one second I'm trying to pull it up we're gonna get to this video where they actually break down what self-defense is but before then apparently we got another another cross white one he didn't go off this whole time and say he's speaking on the bond
Starting point is 01:12:09 is it this is this What was this? This was the 5th. Holy shit. How long this situation had been going on? April 5th. I think I just passed it.
Starting point is 01:12:46 It's a... God can't bless black people because black people got a heart of retribution and vengeance and violence and anger. They want to get back at white people. No wonder Dr. Kingdom could get some things and we can't
Starting point is 01:13:01 because Dr. King said, hey man, don't hear him back. and those people got way more. Now this group say let's kill them. Let's kill them. But your kids, you do by kids every day in the hood, in the hood school, getting bullied, but y'all don't have this much outrage for bullying. They have no bullying month, but y'all don't have this much out.
Starting point is 01:13:22 But now... You know what confuses me about Charleston when it comes to this situation? Charleston always bragged about, he said, he's one of the people who enacted violence on whites and he didn't do it to people of his own community and he was almost saying it to say most black people who do black on black crime
Starting point is 01:13:43 they're stupid because if you're claiming that the white people are oppressing y'all why don't chatt's ride charleston white was Charleston white and his friends killed a white man back in the day and after they killed this white man Charleston White eventually testified against his friend that did the shooting. And his explanation later became, hey, listen, we planned the robbery, but the robbery turned to a murderer.
Starting point is 01:14:10 But I was a person who handed the gun to the person. Because Charleston White was a minor at that time. And because he cooperated, he was allowed to live this life. He was allowed to have some redemption. So watching him basically, you know, claim or hope that this black dude goes to jail. And if you don't know, there is a video of him testifying against the kid. This was when Charleston was younger. Charleston was the white man that got killed.
Starting point is 01:14:51 You see the white man right there? And this was the guy right there who was the shooter. 16-year-old Charleston White took the stand and testified against his friend, Antoine Doolittle, who sat just a few feet from him and listened intently. He pulled it all in the hammer back on the gun. And then what happened? He fired it. Doolittle is accused of gunning down 34-year-old Michael Levy of Irving. Levy attempted to stop Doolittle, White, and two other teenagers accused of shoplifting three sports.
Starting point is 01:15:28 jackets and a baseball cap from an Arlington mall in September of 1991. Witnesses say Levy pounded on their windshield until the teens threw the jackets out the car window. Then Doolittle supposedly shot him in the back as Levy walked away. White repeated the conversation. He says he had with Doolittle after the shooting. Levy had been married only four days when he was shot. But I always had my dreams. of my Prince Charmy.
Starting point is 01:16:01 I found him. And it's hard to believe what I did. And I believe in fairy dose because he made my dreams come true. They took that away. White will be testifying against all three of his buddies in exchange for a maximum
Starting point is 01:16:17 sentence of 12 years. A juvenile judge reduced the charge from capital murder to murder against Doolittle so the teenager faces from five years to life in prison. Okay. So, Charleston was accused of a race, you know, race-related crime as well. Because the guy who him and his friends robbed and subsequently killed was white, right?
Starting point is 01:16:44 So I'm wondering why his opinion is so different here. Over a sudden, let's kill the bully. Most of y'all are bullies. Oh, who, who, talk to them. Most of y'all are, come on, Cug, OG. Bullies. Come on, cripple-blood bullies. But now we want to kill the bully. When most of black children go to school every day and have to face a bully, why you think they got to work Michael Joy Tennis Shoots? But now we got the problem with bullies, huh? Huh? When have we ever told our kids to go kill the bully? We taught our kids how to stand up to the bully. No matter if it was two of them, fight both of them. But you don't put your life in there. to kill unless you got killing in you.
Starting point is 01:17:35 But if you listen to kill, kill music, you got killing in you. There's no way good kids kill. I know a nigga stabbed the girl 93 times, but before he got to 93, he dropped the knife. She begged and she pleaded. He dropped the knife. But because he was abused and he had anger and he had rage inside of him for what his daddy was doing to him.
Starting point is 01:18:00 This is a video of Charleston talking about it was. All right, here we go. We have one of the most controversial figures on the internet. A lot of people have been asking. He was on crack, and so my mother was trying to, every Friday and Saturday, called Fields and Qualities. And so we went to the Form 303 Mall.
Starting point is 01:18:20 We went to Foot Locker. Tony Darset, legendary running back for the Dallas Cowboys. Tony Darset had a club at this mall. So when we go inside the Foot Locker, there was this black dude that looked like he could run fast. So we went to play a video game. We said we'll do it later. So we come back later on that day, come back, and it was a white guy working in there.
Starting point is 01:18:43 So we went in there, tried on hats, tried on jackets, and ran out. And the process of us running out, there was a white guy by the name of Michael Levy in the parking lot working on his car. unbeknownst to us, Mr. Levy had just got married three days prior to that incident. And so he saw what was happening, saw us running out, and tried to thwart us, tried to stop us from stealing those jackets. He ran, jumped on top of the car, started hitting a windshield with some tool that he was working on his car with. Glass was shattering in my friend's face. I handed him the gun and instructed him to him.
Starting point is 01:19:25 shoot Mr. Levy. He shot Mr. Levy. We drove away laughing. I made everybody laugh, you know, being a comical guy that I am, not really having a full understanding and concept what we had just done, right? We didn't know he was dying. We didn't know he had died, undeveloped brains. So we leave there. We abandon the car, across the street from the mall, walk across the street go over to some older teenager guy's house they give us a ride
Starting point is 01:19:59 to a dope fiend who we was going to go trick with and that's where we got caught I remember being arrested man and the police office because I was already been in trouble with the police before I was out on a year
Starting point is 01:20:12 okay now you talks about cooperating that the cooperation video dropping recently that dropped recently this is what me and getting the kids fill out over how you go put street rules down on at 14 15 16 i'm not a street kid i'm not a criminal i'm a kid who would raise to tell the truth when my mama come in and say son what happened mama i didn't do that i got a paid for a lawyer i got two lawyers
Starting point is 01:20:50 was Carl Mallory and Lewis Stearns. Lewis Stearns became Judge Stearns. Judge Lewis Stern. But, nigga, I had two paid for a lawyer. Nick, my mama is a well-to-do mama. I'm just playing. I ain't playing. I'm an adolescent going through an adolescent stage of rebelliousness.
Starting point is 01:21:10 That's the one thing I'm wondering, because he seems forgiven of kids, but not in this situation. Ain't no street. Hell yeah, I'm going to tell on you. I've been telling since I was a little bitty boy. I've been telling all my life. Mama, Kevin did.
Starting point is 01:21:27 Dick, I've been telling to, yeah. So all of a sudden, I ain't going to tell. And my mama crying saying, son. And then, fuck him. I don't do that met them in the eighth grade. I don't know. I didn't go to tell them to me. Well to do kids.
Starting point is 01:21:40 I'm a good kid. Hell from the jump. I say, hell yeah, I told. My mama came in to who. He did it, mama. And my lawyer. him say this is what we're going with. That's how I became famous on the internet.
Starting point is 01:21:53 Remember the Pop Hunter situation of how Charleston White got started. Same situation. Saged in the streets. He went down to pick my cousin up from me. Okay, okay. All right. You know, you know.
Starting point is 01:22:04 Okay. Now, let's get back to this, the situation. Because, as I said, this should be, uh, this should be just a, a straight up and down, a textbook case of, is it self-defense or not? There's a lawyer who's discussing this. He discussed it on News Nation.
Starting point is 01:22:31 Mark O'Mara, self-defense, Carmelo, Anthony. So let's get a little bit of details. All right, so Anthony was being held on a million-dollar bond, which was crazy. Today, they reduced it to 250 grand, which is, you know, still sizable, but he wound up getting out.
Starting point is 01:22:50 All right, so, Mark, first of all, the idea of race, I mean, you lived it with Z. Zimmerman in a big way. There's so many people who believe that that's why Zimmerman wound up beaten that case. But what do you see here? What are your questions? What will matter? Oh, no, it's definitely a consideration. It always is whether it's a sort of obvious what we're doing or the implicit one, because we all carry these implicit biases with us that perceive or impact how we perceive an event. Now, what's really, it's going to come down to it. And I disagree with the guy who said this is not a self-defense case yesterday. I think he said it. This is definitely a self-defense
Starting point is 01:23:23 case, because it always is one until you look at the facts of the case and compare the two. You have to compare who was the initial aggressor. Was it an aggressive act for him to go up and say, get away from the tent? Did he do more than that? My understanding was maybe he touched him and put hands on him. Granted, that makes the decedent in this case maybe the initial aggressor. But you really still then have to look at whether or not Carmelo Anthony responded with appropriate force.
Starting point is 01:23:49 He used a deadly weapon, and whether or not he was in imminent fear of great bodily injury. That's the standard in Texas in most every state to determine whether or not his actions the way he perceived, and the way Carmelo Anthony perceived him, when he took out that knife and stabbed him. The good part is if the decedent was the aggressor initially, the bad part from Carmela, if in fact it's true that he sort of said, touch me and you'll see, because that's that aggression, that's that predisposition towards violence. By the way, and hate to cut this guy off. I'm going to back it up a little bit in a second.
Starting point is 01:24:25 Pause. So I know people want to compare this to the Zimmerman case. Here's a big difference, right? The big difference with that is, you know, again, I like to use the idea of like CCWs, which is concealed carry. Any classes, if you have lawyers that are like insurance lawyers for those things, that, you know, maybe you get in a situation. where you shoot somebody, you'll kill them.
Starting point is 01:24:55 This idea of self-defense, they always say, number one, if you pull the gun out, you might as well kill them. At least in Jersey, they say you might as well kill a nigga. Reason being is that if that person could make it to court, it's going to be a long day for you. Number two, the thing with the Zimmerman cases, remember, dead man tells no tales.
Starting point is 01:25:16 But because there was nobody that has a solid report of what went on, Zimmerman was allowed to go with his story. And what his story going to be? It's going to be concocted by the lawyers, curtailed to kind of match a police report, but it's going to play to the letter of the law
Starting point is 01:25:40 that is self-textbook, self-defense. Here's a problem here. If this is under a tent, there's other people that's within an earshot. They're hearing what's going on. Because the big thing is, he's going to have to take the stand.
Starting point is 01:25:53 He's going to have to take the stand, right? In the self-defense case, if you're not taking a stand, it's like, what are you doing? So he's going to have to explain how he fell to the moment. Because, again, so the standard is, what did he think at that moment? Did he fear for his life? Now, here's a bunch of things that does also come into question.
Starting point is 01:26:19 And by the way, I would imagine a defense would try their best to try to throw out things like this. Say this guy was a fighter. He used to fight niggas all the time. There's videos on him on YouTube. I'm not saying there is. But if there's videos of him on YouTube or his Twitter, which I think is still up,
Starting point is 01:26:35 if he's tweeting about, yeah, just beat this niggas ass. If it was a guy that's used to or has been in multiple other physical fights with hands, the jury might look at it a little bit different. If that's allowed to be presented to say, well, you fought before.
Starting point is 01:26:54 This time you felt you had to stab somebody in the chest. How is his demeanor? This is where race might come in. Sometimes the, you know, colloquial, you know, language that African Americans use, other people that aren't African American or people that are not of color, they view a lot of that as words of violence.
Starting point is 01:27:23 I mean, shit, even a damn cop when the black woman, oh, is it, what's her name? Sonia Massachusetts? I can't remember her full day. When she said, I rebuke you. That nigga thought he heard some crazy shit. He just started letting off. Shit, you know, black people, we talk a little bit different. He could be like, all right, I think, let's get it cracking.
Starting point is 01:27:47 So I'm pretty sure they're going to, a prosecutor is going to go down his history of social media footprint. How does he talk? Is he always talking about violence? He's always saying, yo, listen, this on site for niggas. Like, you know, and they're going to try to make him seem like, oh, no, this was a kid already prone for violence. And it doesn't live up to the standard that he was in fear for his life.
Starting point is 01:28:21 He just wanted to catch a body. That doesn't have a place in a true self-defense case. What's the most important? question for you in this, Mark. And then I want the same from you, Professor, if you have one. Go ahead, Mark. Sure. Who truly was the initial aggressor? How did this unfold such that if, in fact, he had a reason to believe in great bodily injury was imminent? Was it reasonable? Was he pushed? Was he shoved? Was he hit? Because don't forget, it's the moment, but you are allowed to respond to great deadly force with your own great deadly force, or at least your perception of great deadly force.
Starting point is 01:28:58 So it's really going to be fact-based. I do think that race, it's going to be played out on social media. It also is going to be. Which, by the way, obviously, like, you know, I guess in every case, but the brick baby and the big U case, he should say nothing, right? Because he's going to have to take the stand. If he got a girlfriend, I'm pretty sure the lawyers are telling him, don't explain nothing to your girlfriend because you might fucking,
Starting point is 01:29:22 you break up with her before this trial starts. And she's now with the prosecutor. saying, nah, Carmel has been telling me for like for months, he was about to kill one of these niggas. Like, whoa, you know what I mean? He got to keep his mouth quiet. Can't say nothing. Got to get ready and go get prepped to get on that stand eventually.
Starting point is 01:29:43 Eventually. We played out in a courtroom if you ever get there because in today's day and age, I would argue that someone like Carmelo Anthony now has a heightened concern over the past few years and the way we've sort of degraded some of the progress we may have thought we made over the past decade, as far as how we're treating young black males in the system such that maybe he would have felt more preyed upon than he otherwise would. Interesting. You're right. We're going to be talking about this for a long time.
Starting point is 01:30:14 Professor, what do you got? Hello? Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, Professor. This is all about who the jury is. This is all be determined by the jury. If the racial factors were reverse, if a white man had killed an unarmed black man, everybody would be on the reverse side of this. We live in a society where everything is judged by race. You know, the Bible says to judges and prosecutors don't recognize people, just do abstract justice. We're way, way, way beyond that. If the racial elements were reversed here, virtually all the people who are calling for him to be acquitted would be calling for him to to be a quick convicted and vice versa.
Starting point is 01:31:00 Let's not kid ourselves. We live in a race conscious society and jury selection, which, of course, your other guest is so brilliant at and did so well in the Zimmerman case is determined the outcome of this case, without a doubt. For me, it's as simple as how do they feel about this proposition, bringing a knife to a fistfight. Mark O'Mara, we'll see what happens.
Starting point is 01:31:26 Well, is he, is he, the defense has a lot to play with, if you ask me. You know, one of the arguments I would imagine they would have, yo, they come from their family's history. I don't know. Maybe they don't come from a good neighborhood. He felt he needed to bring a knife, not for these guys, but he brought a knife for protection because he had to walk through dangerous neighborhoods
Starting point is 01:31:54 to get to school. They didn't have a car. Harder bringing back home. So he was walking alone at night, late night many times. So he had a knife for protection. I think there's ways to explain having a knife. I think on face value sounds horrible. Like, yo, why do you, you know, especially if he never normally brought a knife.
Starting point is 01:32:14 If you never normally brought a knife and that one day brought a knife, and then he's trying to entice an argument to use that knife, of course that. But of course, no defense attorney is going to say, yeah, that's what happened. And they're going to be like, no, comes from a bad neighborhood. Oh, there's going to be a lot of, this is going to be a very interesting trial, if you ask me. Alan Dershowitz, thank you very much. Hey, thanks for watching. Okay.
Starting point is 01:32:41 And I think, are those all the clips they want him to watch? Because I think that's the latest. He's out. I've seen Aidan Ross commented on it. He says, so he donated $10,000 to the Austin. or honoring Austin Medcalf help his family
Starting point is 01:33:20 and this is what he said bro I know we don't talk about apologies anymore but that shit really pissed me up what's going on the world right now bro with you know who bro track me shit bro I try to bite my tongue
Starting point is 01:33:30 nowadays bro but like I ain't go live bro how do I know bro I have a platform for a reason bro I can say what the fuck I want the fuck you mean who he killed someone he's out like how the fuck does that work
Starting point is 01:33:39 like bro he's literally like what what? What? What do we mean stop? I'm dead serious. He's literally, he stabbed him and he's out. Like, bro, what?
Starting point is 01:33:55 No, I'm dead. Bro, I'm not joking, bro. It doesn't make any sense at all. Y'all saying you shut the fuck out. I'm dead serious. No, I'm going to fucking people mad at me, bro. I say what I want, bro. That's what strings about.
Starting point is 01:34:13 If they're going to ban me for a pin, they got to ban all the other political shimmers on Twitch too. Come on, let's be real here. I'm not disrespecting anybody. I'm just being real. Self-defense. Okay, cool. So you would feel comfortable putting your kid in a school with a kid who has a fucking knife in school.
Starting point is 01:34:32 Bro, y'all are so stupid, bro. If y'all get bullied in school, tell your teachers or tell your parents. Don't fucking try to kill somebody, bro. Please don't kill anybody. Death is very bad. It's crazy I have to even speak on it. Yeah, well, I agree with the first half of what he said. I do think if people are getting bullied, they should have options not murder in the person.
Starting point is 01:34:58 the dude getting out there's a bail system that usually if they got the money, why not? What are you talking about? I have no problem with the dude getting released. It's not that he got let off the hook. He's still charged with murder.
Starting point is 01:35:18 He has to face these charges at some point or another. So I particularly don't have any issue with him being released on bond. And, yeah, we're just going to see what happens at trial. I think there's so many issues that are going to just come up. But I also think even hearing someone like, A.N.Raw speak about this. There's a lot of biases in this shit, right? Like, we're not thinking about self-defense.
Starting point is 01:35:49 Well, you wouldn't think about self-defense if you can't get past the idea that someone might bring a knife to school, right? So you won't even get to the whether it's self-defense or not But I would imagine I don't know where Aiden comes from I haven't gonna lie like not my my high school But shit I live like about 15 minutes from Patterson All them high schools in Patterson niggas at Yo niggas had all type of uh what do you call it again
Starting point is 01:36:17 Niggas are bringing guns to school I'm keeping it up eight Tiggins bring guns to school so it's like They had metal detectives and everything They had that shit like Fort Knox. Eastside High School, they was getting a cracking in there. A stabbing is the least.
Starting point is 01:36:32 Now, again, if you don't come from being at schools like that, you might be like that, what the fuck. Not saying that this kid did. What I'm trying to say is that we're all coming with our own biases before hearing what the defense is going to be and what the prosecutor is going to say.
Starting point is 01:36:53 I'm not sitting here co-signed and this dude bringing anything to the old school and stabbing nobody. I'm just saying, let's just wait and see what the hell's going to happen. Right? Wait, why I say I don't stand on business? Okay, are y'all saying that Aiden came off racist here?
Starting point is 01:37:24 How? He has a POV, but not because his POV doesn't align with wanting Carmelo to be free means he's racist Let me listen again Did he say some racist? If he said some racist
Starting point is 01:37:42 I'll talk about it Bro, I know we don't talk about Pologizing or anything like that But that shit really pissed me up What's going on the world right now Bro, like you know who bro Track me shit Bro, I try to bite my tongue nowadays
Starting point is 01:37:51 Bro, I'm gonna be like, I ain't gonna lie bro How do I know, bro? I have a platform for a reason, bro I can say what the fuck I want The fuck you mean who? He killed someone he's out Like how the fuck does that work? Like, bro, he's literally like, what?
Starting point is 01:38:04 Like, what? Maybe stop. I'm dead serious. That's not racist. Like, he's spitting just facts right there. The dude kills someone. Now, I, I disagree with, oh, why is he out? There's bail for reason. He's literally, he stabbed him and he's out.
Starting point is 01:38:23 Like, bro, what? No, I'm dead. Bro, I'm not joking, bro. It doesn't make any sense at all. Y'all saying you shut the fuck out. I'm dead serious. No, I'm going to fuck. fucking people mad at me, bro. I say what I want, bro. That's what strings about.
Starting point is 01:38:45 If they're going to ban me for a pin, they gotta ban all the other political streamers on Twitch too. Come on, let's be real here. I'm not disrespecting anybody. I'm just being real. Self-defense. Okay, cool. So you would feel comfortable of putting your kid in a school with a kid who has a fucking knife in school. And by the way, I don't think no one cognizantly makes that decision. Like, certain schools, you know, I went to a really, really dope high school. And I'm a, so I went to Hackensack High School. And that high school was really dope because it was like really evenly mixed. It was like, it was like 30% white people. It was 30% black people. It was like 30%
Starting point is 01:39:26 Hispanics. And 10% was like Indian and Chinese things. Okay. But it was pretty much everybody was accounted for. There was not like, oh, you felt like the extreme minority. Now, clearly, because that high school served a few towns, they bust people in from different, like, economic, you know, backgrounds, and that kind of showed itself sometimes. But, yeah, it was like a really cool high school. Now, granted, here's the thing. You might be going to a school where someone who lives on damn near Section 8,
Starting point is 01:40:02 and houses also going to that same school, who probably has beef with, like, people in his little project neighborhood and maybe he's bringing a knife to school, maybe not for you. You know, Mr. I come from this dope-ass, like, you know, background where my parents can provide, whatever. But yeah, shit like that happens. I'm not co-signing none of this. I'm just saying it's got to be realistic.
Starting point is 01:40:27 Like, if you say your kids to public school, anything can happen, my nigga. I mean, it can happen in private school, too. But at least private school, like, it weans out a lot of people that are broke. If anything, I would say some of what Aidan says sounds slightly ignorant to the fact of the reality that maybe he never experienced going to high school. And also ignorant may be in the idea of we've seen a lot of people who have been accused of murder bond out. I mean, yellow bezy is accused of what murder for hire. He just bonded out. So people could bond out for murders.
Starting point is 01:41:28 Bro, y'all are so stupid, bro. If y'all get bullied in school, tell your teachers. Why are y'all saying, I'm like caping? I'm not caping for this, this Carmel and Anthony, nigga. All I'm saying is I want to get to the trial. I want to hear all the witness reports. Like, right now, I'm like, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:41:49 I'm like 70% on the side of, oh, it's murder. But 30% is saying, oh, it's self-defense. None of this got to do with race. I don't look at this in terms of race. But we need to know several more details to come to this determination. Because could it be self-defense? It could. Under the statute of a law, right?
Starting point is 01:42:17 Now, granted, if we're just speaking tongue-in-cheek here, ain't no fucking way it's self-defense you have a knife they don't have a knife right but under the law that does not matter because if you argued like how George Zimmerman argued
Starting point is 01:42:38 that he was getting punched and he felt he was about a blackout yes your great and deadly force in retaliation to that is a gun and the jury subsequently agreed with them right all right
Starting point is 01:42:58 let's do he's gain a lot of money why did they say 250,000 no he didn't he did 10,000 all right all right let me see if there's any more videos
Starting point is 01:43:18 by the way shout to drill he didn't sending me all these clips oh apparently Kevin Gates responded back to LeBron let's go watch that shit here we go
Starting point is 01:43:46 Hey, I'm on my best. How y'all doing? You're here. I'm on my way to have coffee. Coffee spelled backwards is EF. And before we've had our coffee, we don't give EF, about anything. But I just want to say one thing. The truth hurts, but it heals.
Starting point is 01:44:15 And, Brian, I love you, because you might. I already know she would get you. You ain't going to let them talk. Man, you had that. But behind closed doors, you can. Good game. But anyway, look, long as you being celebrated, I don't care who don't like me. Long as you being celebrated, that's all I care about.
Starting point is 01:44:34 Because you're my and I love you. So I don't care if I got to fall out with somebody I love to get the results. We're going to get the results. But if anybody needs, I'm a life coach and a guru. Y'all 24 out. Okay. I agreed with Kevin Gates with him saying, yeah, she probably was like nudged him like, you got to say something, whatever.
Starting point is 01:44:54 But this is why I keep saying, I'm going to blame LeBron. Yeah, LeBron. I know Savannah was on your headtop for you to respond. But right after you play game too, and hopefully you win, my brother. And you about to get in the ice bath at the crib. And that's the only piece you get for the day because you got to go deal with Bronny. James talking about he's not getting no minutes. Bryce over here, just throwing up airballs.
Starting point is 01:45:18 And then goddamn Savannah ready to come talk about some other Kevin Gay's shit. Just remember this, brother. before you make another five posts or another post on Instagram, making a subliminal to Kevin Gates, remember this, you're arguing with the man who said he started a car battery with his bare hands. You know what they said? He said, don't argue with fools,
Starting point is 01:45:47 because people from afar can't tell who's who. You're arguing with the man who started a car. car battery with his bare hands. That's what I'm trying to say. That's all I'm trying to say. Okay. All right. You know,
Starting point is 01:46:15 Britney renter is having a time of his life. No, she's having a time of her life, you. Like, I think Brittany, I think Brittany was in a, in a deep depressed place, kind of almost giving up on the idea of love. and being taken serious. It's what's called the Ho's Ark.
Starting point is 01:46:39 When they now realize that all the hoeing and all the shit that you've done publicly, it's really tough for a man to stand by you and take you serious. So what ends up happening if you're so attractive woman, men get with you gas lights you like they would, or they don't care. They fuck you and then they dip.
Starting point is 01:47:05 What usually ends up happening is that women settle. Like, they'll settle for, you know, a guy way less in their standards just to get that commitment because the guys who they are attracted to, none of them wants to be the guy. Unless it's like a basketball player, football players. I don't know what's going on with the football player and basketball players. You got to find a Russell Wilson, you know what I mean? Or like, you know, and not saying that was Sierra. What I'm saying is that someone like a football,
Starting point is 01:47:35 PJ Washington, who will just stand there, despite what people saying about you, they're like, fuck it, that's my woman. And gladfully for, and by the way, wasn't PJ with Britney? And he even dipped, right? Gladfully for Brittany, Kevin Gates is one of those, where he don't give a fuck about what people say. So there's nobody that could tell him anything different about his woman. And I think what that has done in return, it's,
Starting point is 01:48:05 given this new side of submissiveness and really willing to walk in the path that her man, Kevin Gates, is leading. And she looks quite happy. She looks quite happy. So I'm kind of happy for her, right? I'm going to pose a video when we see her face. Like she looks like she's having a blast. She got the little joint on her head.
Starting point is 01:48:35 I heard fashion over selling these now. This is crazy. Good for her. She's having a blast. Good for her. Everybody deserves some happiness, right? By the way, did you all see this? This is a definition of locking in right here. This is a definition of locking in.
Starting point is 01:48:53 Here we go. Let me see if I can find it. So PJ Washington, who was with Dreya and previously with Brittany Renner, he has announced that he is broken up with his chick. And I don't know if he's breaking up with her for the playoffs, but as a sports fan, you got to, be happy for that. When a nigger break up with his girl to lock in for the
Starting point is 01:49:15 playoffs, that's some good shit. Can I find it? PJ Washington. Wait, that was a real thing, right? Unless I made that up. I think he had tweeted like, yo, Ralph. There we go. Is it PJ Washington? No, it's not PJ Washington. My bad. It's the other nigga. Jalen Green. My pet.
Starting point is 01:49:59 Jalen Green breaks up. He was Drea. Yeah, I had the wrong nigga. PJ Washington is with What do you call it again? P.J. Washington is with some chick. I don't know. I forgot her name. Where's the fucking post?
Starting point is 01:50:22 I can't find anything no more. This is real, right? Like, only some tripp it. I think he's just put up on the story like, yo, bro. Breaking up with this bitch. I'm locking in. Where is it at Jet? Jailing Green.
Starting point is 01:50:39 Dreya. Or maybe it was fake. I was hoping it was real. I said, leave my girl out of it. What? Is he what or not? I can't tell. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:51:18 I thought the nigga broke up with her. Yo, Shensia with YG. Marley now, bro? And Shensia is so fucking bad. You have a rule against single mothers, but Shencia, Shensia, one of the very few, I'd be like, you know what? Just call me Uncle Russell. Maybe they didn't break.
Starting point is 01:51:44 Where the fuck did I see that at? I thought he posted some shit saying he broke up. Whatever. Why are you gaslighted me saying meek-mil tweeted at me? I'm like, here we go again. You know, as soon as I see y'all say it, I'm like, here we go again. I'm like, meek tweeted again, bro. All right, he didn't know.
Starting point is 01:52:47 All right. The Pope has died. I guess Jim Green didn't break up. How many points did he drop tonight? So the Pope who appeared at the the Easter Vatican service and he was calling for a Gaza ceasefire. He's like dead hours later.

Just coming in. into us now here in Al Jazeera that Pope Francis, the first Latin American leader of the Roman Catholic Church, has died. Just to repeat that, an announcement being made
Starting point is 01:54:16 by the Vatican in a video statement saying, Pope Francis, who we know has been suffering health challenges, has now passed away. It ends an often turbulent rain that has rained in the Vatican, as he sought to overhaul the institution now we do know that the uh... pope had appeared briefly to give traditional president now mentioned stepped out onto the balcony of st peter's basilica
Starting point is 01:54:46 pope francis made history he was the first latin-american pope the first non-European for more than a thousand years and his simple words and humble manner immediately won over the crowds bernan seda as cardinal bergollo the archbishop of buenos a he had witnessed firsthand the hardships faced by the poor and from the start, the new Pope showed the world the humble side of the papacy. He chose Francis as his papal name, inspired by St. Francis of Assisi, the son of a wealthy merchant who chose instead to live a life of poverty. Pope Francis led by example and made clear that he expected the same of his clergy.
Starting point is 01:55:33 simplicity and austerity of life. Men who do not think and behave like princes, men who are not ambitious. I think he was a Pope of the developing world. He was a Pope of the poor. He was a Pope who spoke to and from the margins of society and who was very conscious of the gaps which exist in society and the way...
Starting point is 01:55:54 I'm not Catholic, so I don't want to say nothing they. I'm going to get mad at me about. We do have some...

We beat him from the pulpit all the way back to the, all the way to the choir. We're going to beat that nigga everywhere, we're going to beat that nigga everywhere, nigga. We're going to beat them.
Starting point is 01:57:38 We're going to beat them in Bible service. Yeah. I never heard what happened with them niggies who used to touch kids. That's the one thing I know about a Catholic church, honestly. And also, they have really big churches. I'd be like, damn, what are they getting all this money from? that's all I know about it. But I do know, like, this is what they told me as a kid in Jamaica.
Starting point is 01:58:03 So under Christianity, Catholicism is the biggest, what it's called again? I don't know if it's called denomination. You have, like, seven-day Adventist. That's like another denomination. You have Pentecostal. You have Baptist. I'm a Baptist. And a bunch of other stuff.

Starting point is 02:01:40 While posts traditionally receive a salary, reports indicate the wage is $32,000 a month. I need more than that. Ain't the pope, the nigger, who they'd be kissing like his corns and bunnies to heal them? I always thought that was nasty. There's a lot of kissing shit going on. And then y'all get mad like,
Starting point is 02:02:07 y'all be wondering why they start fucking the kids. Too much kissing going on in here, man. Too much. His predecessor, Pope Benedict, died, marking the end of an unprecedented nine-year-long arrangement of two popes, living side by side in the Vatican Gardens. Pope Francis presided over Benedict's funeral and said losing Benedict felt like he had lost a dad.
Starting point is 02:02:36 Francis continued to battle opposition as he worked to make the Catholic Church more inclusive. He said he welcomed the criticism because it meant there was freedom to speak. His priestly motto had always been a Latin phrase that recognizes God's mercy and sovereignty, sentiment that guided his ministry and will now be his legacy. In New York, Lauren Green, Fox News. All right, man, rest and peace, brother. Does the Polk get any holes? Let me see.

But if you say you're misogynistic, yo, they'll be like, you're, listen. it don't say a woman could become a priest. It says a nigger. A man typically has to complete a bachelor degree, followed by seminary training and ordination.
Starting point is 02:06:28 It involves several stages, including the sermon, application. It must be horny hours. I don't know why I'm thinking. Like everything I'm just thinking is on some, are they fucking, what's going on, who's fucking? Because I just read this as seamanil. seminal education.
Starting point is 02:06:49 I'm like, what the fuck? Don't tell me that's how they fuck the kitten. Anyway. And eventually ordination. Okay, what are these things? A man should discern if he has to call a priesthood through prior. This, okay, whatever.
Starting point is 02:07:05 He got to go to school. It must be ordained as a deacon. Okay. It's the sacramental act signifying a man is called to ministry within a church. Life is a priest. Man, how much money they begin, man.

The gay nigga who, the gay nigga who be leading to quiet, he'd be like, I know that's right. We look at him like, nigga, you're gay.

You got the bum-ass things who go to Bible study because they're trying to bag bitches? Facts. You got a nigga who's cheating on his wife, because they'll have two different Bible stuff.

Starting point is 02:15:36 The Lord! I want everybody to remain standing quickly. How many of you really receive something from the Word of the Lord today? Listen, when you study scripture, you would know to notice that whenever God did something in the lives of the patriarchs of old, The patriarchs would pause. They would set up an altar and they would offer a sacrifice. I asked each and every one of you how many y'all receive something from the Lord. Everyone in this place said these words, I did.
Starting point is 02:16:14 Because of your acknowledgement of what God did. 10% fools. In word, there is an obligation that is attached to that acknowledgement. This is smooth this robbery. In biblical days, they offered livestock, grain. That was a type of currency. Oh, this guy is smooth. If you will, I did not say money.
Starting point is 02:16:41 I said currency. And this is what God is saying for at least 1,000 of you in the building. And this is simple. Damn, it's a big assurts like that. I'm not going to challenge you the way Bishop did. But I know that there's a thousand individuals. under the sound of my voice that can do what I'm about to challenge you all to do. This is simple.

Starting point is 02:23:09 You know what I'm trying to be? Interview Pastor Shit. This nigga right here. How are you, sir? We'd just like to ask you about why you don't want to fly commercial. Why have you said that you won't fly commercial? You said that it's like getting into a tube with a bunch of demons.
Starting point is 02:23:45 What? No way he said that. No way he said that. They say it on a fly commercial because it's like getting to the tube with a bunch of teeth. My man, chat. I know y'all would have better streaming this. I'm just laughing.
Starting point is 02:24:05 I'm just having a good time as long as I can stay up, brother. This is too much fuckery. Hold on. You think that. No, listen to me just singing. Not the people. The main reason is because of the need. If I flew commercial, I'd have to stop 65% of what I'm doing.
Starting point is 02:24:26 That's really to me. Isn't it true that you want to fly commercial so that you can fly in luxury? How much money did you pay for Tyler Perry's Gulfstream jet, for example? Well, for example, that's really none of your business. Oh, shit. Isn't it the business of your donors? Listen, I paid. I'm about to talk her out.
Starting point is 02:24:47 You kind of caught me off guard here, okay. You know what he wanted to do right here? Trust me, he wanted to do this. He wanted to do this shit right here. Look, this is not what I got on Dylon and Dylon. I rip and a rhyme. A rhyme and I rip. This is the way the dialan spits.
Starting point is 02:25:10 You're trying to get some of this hot fire? You can even make this song or not make the song. You're too close, man. That's what I think I want to do. You can tell how you're looking at her, bro. he look look he want to choke the shit out of her certainly well if you like to come out here i'd like to give you a chance to catch your breath and and have a conversation we don't want to
Starting point is 02:25:32 we don't want to catch you off guard i love inside edition you got to get this now hey you listen to me my wife thinks inside edition is oh yeah now thank you lord help me let me let me pray this well let me let me just ask you a really simple question a lot of people People think it's unbecoming for a preacher to live a life of luxury and to fly around in private jets. What's your response to that? Very simple.
Starting point is 02:26:01 This is why the Pope don't be winning. The Pope not getting no pussy. Told him why they're not getting no salary, really. They can't spend a bag. They can't have no bust down on. These pastors, they'd be having it like, yo, Joel Olstein, I know he's getting it. It takes a lot of money to do what we do. we have brought over a hundred let's see this the latest figures just came out
Starting point is 02:26:28 a hundred and twenty two million people to the Lord Jesus Christ let me give you another example last May I was scheduled for powers can you explain what you meant by that do you ever use your private jets to go visit Is it your vacation homes, for example? Yes, I do. Okay. Again, getting back to the comment, you said that you don't like to fly commercial
Starting point is 02:26:55 because you don't want to get into a tube with a bunch of demons. Do you really believe that human beings are demons? No, I do not. And don't you ever say I did. Wait, what the fuck? Do not. And don't you ever say I did.
Starting point is 02:27:18 We wrestle not with flesh and blood, but principalities. powers. Can you explain what you meant by that, by that term then? Just explain, because it's really simple. You said you didn't want to get into a tube with a bunch of demons. What did you mean? The, well, let me ask you. Do you think that people that fly commercial are deep? Yo, I don't know why. I was just thinking about, I'm thinking about different, like, Chappelle show references. This is all that's coming to mind, chat. I can't have a bang.
Starting point is 02:28:07 I was there like a quote from Shepelma. Like, does Rick James have to slap a bitch? I could tell this thing I want to slap the shit out of this woman, bro. You can give me a chance to talk, sweetheart. I'll explain this to you. But it's a biblical thing.
Starting point is 02:28:22 It's a spiritual thing. It doesn't have anything to do with people. People. I love people. Jesus loves people. But people get pushed in our country. Do you think that's a good place for a preacher to be and prepare to go preach to a lot of people?
Starting point is 02:28:43 When somebody in there is dragging some woman down an aisle, it made me so mad to see that on television. I wanted to punch a guy out myself. I can't be doing that while I'm getting ready to preach. So you just don't like to be around the sinful people or the hurtful people? Is that what you're saying? Not the people, baby. Not the people. Back during the days that we couldn't.
Starting point is 02:29:10 that we couldn't do anything else we had to travel commercial. Nah, this shit's hilarious. That shit is hilarious. All right, anyway. Yo, how the hell was the nigga named Creflot Dollar? Shit, that's hilarious. Craflo Dollar.
Starting point is 02:29:37 By the millions, all the wife. In order for me to do what I've been called to do, the airlines, they don't fly my schedule. The private jets has fueled much of, the controversy about CREPLOD. Good morning, this satellite churches in at least a dozen states and hundreds of thousands of online followers.
Starting point is 02:30:09 I am the resurrection. Dollar owns this multi-million dollar mansion and condo. In March, his website asked the need a cheap airplane. He need the best. But Dollar later took down the video after the jet request was criticized. Former member Shamora Barnard was disgusted.
Starting point is 02:30:27 What's Pastor? critics during a sermon. Yeah, anyway, whatever. Them dudes make a lot of money, though. All right, cool. What am I missing in hip-hop? Anything in hip-up that's interesting? Okay, we kind of looked at that already.

Man, they got Justin Bieber and Coachella looking like he either off that, either off that CODA black nigger, or he over here getting a big U treatment, man, straight extortion brer let me see i can find the quick there's a whole full thing about him at procello and it's not just a small part yop ya may have saw so so this is the part that everybody has seen okay but there's other videos too he's with a fan hell now this looks like a nigga extorting

We haven't seen him do as much music.
Starting point is 02:34:51 He's kind of almost damn there. Semi-retired. He still does shows, but he's kind of looking like he's in a rut, or, you know, we had heard some health concerns. Or maybe he just kind of burnt out because he's been doing this shit since he was a kid. He wasn't on the lineup at all. He just showed up to watch. Justin.
Starting point is 02:35:32 Bieber Coachella. That one made no fucking sense. Just me. Listen, we got to talk. Look how beautiful this. Okay. Who's a new dad? They're like, like sexy red felt bad because a lot of past video.

He in the trenches with the kid, chemo.

You know, they said this is Justin Bueber's put on and his DP all in one, bro. My 20s, six, I'll shoot you guys, my little homie. Hey, it's my shoes, man. You're doing clap clap

Starting point is 02:39:42 Bieber Valley, man. I don't care. Even if some people are going to blame it on drugs. I'm going to blame everything just sounds better than me to blame it on the big U.S. extortion to Rico. So I'm going to think he was getting extorted for that reaction. A nigga constantly keeping his hand around his neck. I don't think he's doing that shit willingly, bro. Or, yeah, look, the niggins was holding on to his hand and shit like, nah, something, something ain't right about that, bro. Something ain't right
Starting point is 02:40:20 about that. Yo, I ain't a lot of you. By the way, shout to sexy red, man. She's been turning that goddamn five minutes of fame into like the longest 15 minutes ever, man. Every Every time I think she done, she'd come out with another little catchy one. Hoochick, whochee? Okay, all right. All right, I got a request to watch a documentary. Let me see. Supposedly this is good.
Starting point is 02:40:50 All right, here we go. Why Kendrick never respected Jake Holt? All right, we can finally get some clarity. Both rising leaders of conscious hip-hop, both masters of story. All right. To listen to this boring as shit. Well, I don't think the video will be boring, but. Both of these niggas, this is snooze fest.
Starting point is 02:41:17 I gotta go ahead. Let me get a chase it for my liquor. Storytelling and both constantly mentioned when debating the best in the game, Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole are undeniably two of the most influential and celebrated rappers of this generation. On the surface, there's always been mutual respect with Cole never hesitating to praise Kendrick, often calling him one of the greatest. But Kendrick, well, that's a different story.
Starting point is 02:41:38 In fact, his actions and even his lyrics suggest otherwise. Some subtle jabs in his verses to being the rumored reason their long-awaited collab album never materialized, Kendrick consistently refused to acknowledge Cole as an equal, leaving an unspoken tension lingering for years. But why? What makes Kendrick's stance on Cole so different from how Cole sees Kendrick? Well, to understand that, we need to rewind the clock and trace their journeys from the beginning. So sit back and join us on this journey. This is going to be an interesting one.
Starting point is 02:42:10 Let's start with Kendrick's upbringing. Kendrick's parents grew up near Chicago's notorious Oblock, with his father being a member of the gangster disciples. But his mother refused to let that life dictate their future, so she gave him an ultimatum. Her or the streets. Luckily for her, he chose her. And they left Chicago behind relocating to California in search of something better. Unfortunately, they landed in one of the most dangerous areas in America. And thus, Kendrick Lamar Duckworth was born on June 7, 1987 in Compton, California.
Starting point is 02:42:38 Named after Eddie Kendricks of The Temptations, music was always in the background of his life. But so was gang culture. His father still had street ties. And growing up in Compton, shaped his perspective. from an early age. From the age of five, Kendrick was already being exposed to gang culture, but his parents were extremely supportive of him. They emphasized education, and compared to his friends, Kendrick always had two parental figures in his life guiding the way for him. Kendrick even recalled the first time he saw someone die, saying,
Starting point is 02:43:09 it was outside my apartment unit. A guy was out there serving his narcotics and somebody rolled up with a shotgun and blew his chest out. Admittedly, it did something to me right then. It let me know that this is not only something that I'm looking at, but it's something that maybe I have to get used to. This dramatically changed him, stripping away his innocence from a young age. And as he grabbed- Are we going to skip to, I don't need to know about his name background? Playback speed, 1.25. Why they hate each other or never expected?
Starting point is 02:43:35 Here we go. Settling on Jay Cole. I'm together at the double-xel freshman cover shoot. An iconic moment filled with rising stars like Nipsey Hustle, Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean, Jay Cole, and J-Rock. Since Jayrock was signed a TDE, Kendrick tagged along to the shoot, even though he hadn't made the cover him, Kendrick later reflected on that moment in the heart part one. Wait, what? I was at the double Excel just trying to excel.
Starting point is 02:43:52 Oh, I never knew that. Alright, hold on. Five would dictate his future, and this will all come into play later on in the video. In fact, this difference in mentality was perfectly captured in his interview with Nardwar, where he downplayed the weight of it all, saying. Why should people care about Jay Cole? Why should people care? They don't have to care about me. They don't, they should.
Starting point is 02:44:08 I'm not going to say they should. If you do, I appreciate it, you know what I mean? If you like the music, that's what matters. But, you know, I live a real life outside of this. You know what I mean? I do real things in real life. You don't have to care. None of this is that serious.
Starting point is 02:44:18 Me or otherwise, you don't have to care about me. By the time Kendrick Lamar and Jay Cole first crossed paths, their journeys in rap couldn't have been more different. In 2010, Fate brought them together at the Double XL freshman cover shoot, an iconic moment filled with rising stars like Nipsey Hustle, Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean, Jay Cole, and J-Rock. Since Jay Rock was signed a TDE, Kendrick was signed along to the shoot,
Starting point is 02:44:39 even though he hadn't made the cover himself. Kendrick later reflected on that moment in the Heart Part 1, rapping, I was at the Double XL just trying to excel. Networking, meanwhile my stomach turning. Wanted to be a part of it, cater it to my audience. Jay Cole running late. If you don't show up, I think I could take its place. Ladies started laughing, no pun intended, I ain't being sarcastic.
Starting point is 02:44:55 This is where things get interesting, because according to longtime rap journalist Rob Markman, who was the double-xl editor at the time, he confirmed that Kendrick wasn't just joking. He was dead serious. Even before Kendrick and Cole had officially met, Kendrick was already gunning for a spot, literally. He had so much confidence in himself that he was ready to step into Cole's place right then and there. That kind of competitive drive was admirable, but it also signals something bigger. Kendrick saw Cole as a rival before they had even spoken.
Starting point is 02:45:18 But first, after years of making, YouTube videos, there's a lot that goes on behind the scenes to create what recently. We did create a step to a video with like my voice to function in a video. Plus you can use this once again. Only this time, it was at a release party for Englewood rap duo's UNI album, A Love Supreme 2.0. It was here that Kendrick took the mic and delivered an insane freestyle, rapping a cappella for three straight minutes.
Starting point is 02:45:49 Kendrick's performance left an impression on everyone in the room, including Cole. In that same night, Cole performed two of his biggest songs. Head Busset and the Star is Born, the latter being a collaboration with Jay Z. In the background, you can see a young Kendrick Lamar rapping along to every single word of Jay Z and J. Cole's, a star is born. Even at this early stage, their paths were beginning to intertwine, drawing unconscious comparisons between the two. Cole had a laid-back introspective style, while Kendrick's music was intense and extremely reflective, both conscious, but coming from different angles. That night, Kendrick wasted no time in making a move. He emailed Cole two songs, Pee and Petrone and Cut You Off, both of which immediately caught Cole's attention.
Starting point is 02:46:22 In a later interview Cole revealed, later that night, Kendrick emailed him, me two songs. I was like, yo, I'm messing with this guy. I need to sign this guy. From there, I felt compelled to always give him any jewels I could. He even helped put Dr. Dre on him. However, by the time Cole made his offer, Kendrick was already locked in with TDE. Still, that didn't stop Cole from supporting him. As both a rapper and producer, Cole started sending Kendrick beats helping him refine his sound. Considering Cole already had been signed personally by Jay-Z and got numerous cosigns in the industry, this was a big look for Kendrick. Over the next few years, their bonds grew stronger. First as collaborators, then his friends. But that
Starting point is 02:46:52 competitive edge that fueled their first meeting never really faded. As the collaborations continued, rumors of a full-length joint project between Cole and Kendrick started gaining traction. the first real hint came in 2010 when Kendrick mentioned it in an interview with Hard Knock TV. during the interview he even played a Jay Cole produced track which was his first time. publicly acknowledging the project. At this point, Kendrick was clearly on good terms with Cole, referencing how much they were working together. Then in 2011, during the rollout for Section 80, Kendrick further fueled speculation by playing
Starting point is 02:47:33 a never-before-heard track featuring a J-Colverse. The song, Temptations, was the first of many unreleased tracks that would keep fans convinced this collab project was real. Shortly after, Kendrick doubled down in a double-ex-l interview, confirming that the project was not just an idea, but was actively in the works. By 2012, both Kendrick and Cole were openly confirming that the album was happening. And in May of that year, Cole sat down with Bootleg Kev and revealed that the project was not just a mixtape. It was a full album.
Starting point is 02:47:56 Later that same year, Cole gave another interview that took a slightly different tone. While still hyping up the project, he also hinted at the competitive nature of their relationship. He specifically referenced Temptations, admitting that after hearing Kendrick's verse, he felt like he had to rewrite his own. And another one I got is a song we got now called Temptations. And when I gave it the beat, it already had my verse on it. I was just like, yo, I got this crazy beat with it with a ill verse on it. You know what I tell you, you should never give a shit like Kendra Lamar home court advantage. That was the first one anybody ever, first verse anybody ever spent on my song and I was like,
Starting point is 02:48:24 you little, like, you know, I wanted to change my birth. At this stage, there was no direct tension. Cole wasn't worried about Kendrick dissing him, but he was definitely feeling the pressure. Getting outshined on your own song is not a great feeling. And the fact that Cole even considered rewriting his verse speaks volumes. What this moment reveals is that Kendrick's competitive drive was already in full effect. No matter how friendly they were, he was focused on proving he was the best. And this underlying tension would only grow over time.
Starting point is 02:48:49 What started as a friendly rivalry, one that sharpened both of their pens, would slowly evolve into something more complicated, and the collaborative album which fans have been anticipating for years would never materialize. Now, if you let some fans tell it, this was due to Kendrick's shifting priorities as an artist. After all, if he was willing to forgo a collaborative project with his own label mates in the form of a Black Hippie album, then turning down Cole wouldn't exactly be out the picture. However, according to Cole, it was their respective schedules that prevented them from ever seeing it through.
Starting point is 02:49:15 As time went on, the quiet but undeniable friction between J. Cole and Kendrick would start to grow and a major turning point in the relationship would happen in 2013. Hip-hop has always been built on competition. MCs have been battling each other since the genre's inception. So naturally, when two lyrical rappers from opposite coasts start gaining traction around the same time, comparisons were bound to happen. But after temptations, the tension between J. Cole and Kendrick started to feel more real. That all came to a head in 2013, when Kendrick dropped what would become one of the most infamous
Starting point is 02:49:46 verses in modern hip-hop history on Big Sean's control. I'm usually homeboys with the same guys I'm rhyming with, but this is hip-hop and these guys to know what time it is. And that goes for Dermaine Cole, Pushing T, Meek Mill, A-Sap Rocky, Drake, Big Sean Tyler, and Mack Miller. I got love for you all but I'm trying to murder you guys, trying to make sure your core fans never heard of you guys. They don't want to hear not one more noun or verb from you guys.
Starting point is 02:50:06 Now, this verse has been dissected into oblivion. Kendrick was making a statement. He wanted to push the culture forward and forced rappers to step up their game. The verse name dropped some of the biggest names in rap, calling them out in a way that was meant to spark competition. But for Drake and Cole, it cut a little deeper. As we all know by now, Drake responded by leaning into his more sensitive side and made it clear he was not a fan. Cole, on the other hand, also had a reaction to the verse.
Starting point is 02:50:26 But instead of airing it out in an interview, he went straight to Kendrick. He called him up, wanting to know where they stood after Kendrick had talked about a joint album just the year before. I'm going to say this. Did you feel the kind of way? I didn't even really hear the line. Right. I heard the loudness of the people. Right.
Starting point is 02:50:39 Oh, oh, ooh. I had to have a conversation with him. You know what was the conversation, man? It was just, I mean, not even a doubt in detail. I just had to find out for myself. Like, yo, what? You came at me, dog? What's that?
Starting point is 02:50:49 Please tell me what is that. I got to know. And when I got the answer, it really, and then went back and heard the verse. Like months later, I had to really check myself like, wow. What was the answer? The last person I thought would even fill away is, you know what I mean? Cole was genuinely surprised. The two had been talking about collaborating for years at this point.
Starting point is 02:51:05 But when they spoke, Kendrick reassured him that it was just rap. Nothing personal. And instead of being discouraged, Cole took it his motivation. That same year, J. Cole proved his loyalty when he defended Kendrick at a party after the verse dropped. Did he, who was reportedly offended by Kendrick claiming that he was the king in New York, tried to pour a drink on Kendrick's head, only for Cole to step in. Things got heated, and while Cole and Diddy eventually squashed the issue,
Starting point is 02:51:24 it was a clear sign that Cole still had respect for Kendrick, even after the public callout. But the energy wasn't mutual. While Cole still saw Kendrick as a friend, Kendrick was moving differently. The dynamic between them had officially shifted. What had once been a healthy, competitive friendship quietly turned into something else, a secret war between two of the biggest rappers in the world. And for nearly nine years, that war would remain hidden beneath the surface. J. Cole had finally grasped the competitive nature of his relationship with Kendra-Lamark.
Starting point is 02:51:52 and he was ready to fire back. His response came on the remix of Justin Timberlake's TKO, where he wasted no time addressing Kendrick's control verse head on. That long, ah, verse from a song called Control was on. The room got near. The tune got clear. That was when I seen that ish playing on your phone. Girl, what is that?
Starting point is 02:52:07 A ringtone? Damn, not you too. Man, that hype done got you too. Everybody in their mama gassed. Even my mama asked what I'm going to do. Decisions, decisions. In case this is war, then I load up on all ammunition. If that guy wants problems, my triggers on auto.
Starting point is 02:52:19 I'll make sure that nobody misses him. Cole made it clear. He felt blindsided by Kendrick. verse, and he wasn't amused by the way control had been hyped up to legendary status. He downplayed its impact, calling it overblown and criticizing the industry's obsession with the moment. Then he sent a direct message. If Kendrick wanted war, he was ready to take him out completely.
Starting point is 02:52:34 Despite the tension, the two still maintained a front of mutual respect, releasing their Black Friday tracks in 2015 where they wrapped over each other's beats. Cole wrapped over All right and Kendrick took tale of two cities. With this, fans still clung to the hope that their long-rumored joint project was happening. But beneath the surface, the competitive friction between them was becoming more apparent. Fans started comparing the two MCs, saying Kendrick smoke Cole with his rendition of Cole's song on Reddit. While both rappers continued to coexist at the top, Kendrick began to pull ahead in the public eye. Jay Cole had 2014 Forrest Hills Drive, but Kendrick's to pimple butterfly was a cultural moment, sweeping award shows and cementing his reputation as hip-hop's lead lyricist.
Starting point is 02:53:08 Kendrick dominated the BETT Awards, winning Best New Artist, Best Male Hip Hop Artist, Best Collaboration and Lyracist of the Year, and Album of the Year, among others. Then came the MTV hottest MCs list, one of the most influential rap rankings at the time. took number one while Cole wasn't even mentioned by 2017 the gap widened even further Kendrick released damn winning multiple Grammys and more notably pulled surprise an achievement unheard-of in rap meanwhile cole had been consistently snubbed at the grammies not winning his first until years later the conversation was shifting fast Kendrick was being labeled as the best lyricist of the era while cole despite his success was often seen as second tier in comparison then kendrick disappeared after damn he largely withdrew from the spotlight reappearing only to curate the
Starting point is 02:53:47 Black Panther soundtrack and support his cousin and protege baby Keem on tracks like range brothers and family ties while Kendrick was away Cole stepped up filling the void with a relentless run of music it's from here that Cole's business acumen was also starting to shine his label Dreamville was growing signing talents like JID viz and earth game he launched Dreamville fest in 2018 drawing over 100,000 attendees and proving that he could operate beyond just his music while Kendrick was stacking awards Cole was building an empire by quietly positioning himself as a label boss businessman and artistic leader but despite his success the The comparisons to Kendrick never faded.
Starting point is 02:54:19 Between 2018 and 2019, Cole dominated the feature game, appearing on tracks with Bos on Tribe, 21 Savage on A Lot, and JID on OffD's, among many others. With 28 features in just two years, fans started calling him one of the best guest verse artists of the era, elevating nearly every song he touched. By 2020, Cole laid out his career roadmap, revealing his plan for his final releases. He would finish his feature run, drop Revenge of the Dreamers 3, released the off season, followed it with It's a Boy, and eventually dropped his long-rumored album The Falloff. But as his career progressed, he also started sending subliminal shots at Kendrick
Starting point is 02:54:49 and subtly addressing the constant comparisons. One of the clearest examples came on Heaven's EP, where he openly acknowledged to being ranked below Kendrick and Drake, but then challenged that perception. Some people say that I'm running third. They threw the bronze at me. Behind Drake and died. Yeah, them guys are superstars to me. But then he flipped it.
Starting point is 02:55:03 The tale's official. The best guy's breathing. I just failed to hit you. You couldn't tell because you fell for the bells and whistles. Here, Cole suggests that hype, marketing, and theatrics, things that Kendrick and Drake excel at are the only reasons people still rank him below them. He believes that if rap were judged purely on skill, he would be at the top. Then in 2022, Kendrick returned with Mr. Morrell in the Bigsepper and allegedly took a shot at Cole.
Starting point is 02:55:23 On Count Me Out, Kendrick rapped, ain't nobody but the mirror looking for the fall off. Fans speculate that the falloff was a reference to Cole's upcoming final project, implying that Kendrick was waiting for Cole to disappear from relevance. Cole fired back on Johnny Peat's caddy with Benny the Butcher and delivered one of the boldest claims yet, spitting. I put your favorite rapper neck in a noose, never letting them loose. Cole whirled, that heat'll blast through your speaker. And then, on God, the best rapper alive. Headshot now going as the best rappers that died.
Starting point is 02:55:47 They'll tell you he never lied. Cole was staking his claim. Not only was he the best alive, but even the greatest dead rappers would vouch for him. Fans immediately speculated that this was a direct shot at Kendrick, since Best Rapper Alive is the title Kendrick has claimed multiple times. Then just months later, Cole doubled down. On the secret recipe with Lil Yadi, he rapped, People Fake Progressive and Woke.
Starting point is 02:56:04 I started saying less. I had to stop it, peeped how they profit off the racial stress. Some activists got so rich, they probably wish we stay depressed. Studio Stepers moving extra on songs, fake and rep. Here, Cole calls out fake activists. accusing them of using social justice themes for profit, and many fans saw this as another shot of Kendrick. He then refers to Studio Steppers, which many believe is a nod to Kendrick's album title, Mr. Morrell and the Big Steppers. And then the gloves fully came off. Cole released First Person Shooter in October 2023, where he took direct shot to Kendrick.
Starting point is 02:56:30 I'm naming the album The Fall Off, it's pretty ironic because ain't no fall off for me. Love when they argued the hardest MC. Is it K-Dott is at Aubrey or me? Lead the big three like we started the league, but right now I feel like Muhammad Ali. Hate how the game got away from the bars, this stuff like a prison escape. Everybody's stepers, well, forget it. The next everybody breakfast and I'm about to clear at my plate. Cole was done with subliminals. He was directly responding to Kendrick's Count Me Out, shutting down any notion of his falloff.
Starting point is 02:56:52 He called out Kendrick and Drake by name, claiming that he was the best of the Big Three, and even referenced Steppers again. Fans had long suspected a brewing war between Kendrick and Cole. In October 2023, months before the feud exploded, a Reddit user even broke down all the subliminal shots, stating, again, I can be reaching, but whenever a rapper is repeating the same words and songs,
Starting point is 02:57:09 it's for a reason. Is this a real thing? Or am I just like you other, motherfuck, that has nothing to do better with the time? Who knows? We'll see later on down the line. And they were right. Kendrick had no choice but to respond,
Starting point is 02:57:18 which led to the biggest rap diss track since Control. Kendrick finally fired back with Like That, and he did not hold any punches. The track came swinging with direct shots, making it clear that he too was no longer interested in subliminals anymore. Forget sneak-dissing, first-person shooter. I hope they came with three switches.
Starting point is 02:57:38 Forget the big three. It's just big me. What? I'm really like that, and your best work is a light pack. Prince outlived Mike Jack. For all your dogs getting buried, that's a K with all these nines,
Starting point is 02:57:46 he can see pet cemetery. This was not just. to this. This was a full-scale declaration of war. The line, forget the big three is just big me, erased any illusion that Kendrick saw Drake or especially Cole as equals. He dismissed their legacies outright, calling Cole's best work a light pack, suggesting that it never truly held weight. Fans were shocked, but the response from Cole was even more surprising. For years, Kendrick and Cole had kept their distance. The last time they were even on the same song was 2020's Revenge of the Dreamers 3, where Kendrick had an uncredited feature on Under the Sun.
Starting point is 02:58:13 Since then, they had operated in entirely separate lanes, barely acknowledging each other. But in March In 2024, as Cole hosted his annual Dreamville Festival, he decided to respond. Like other years, Cole dropped a surprise project ahead of the festival. In 2022, it was D-Day with Dreamville. In 2024, it was a solo tape called Might Delete Later, featuring the track, Seven-Minute Drill. The song was named after a writing exercise Cole used to sharpen his pen, where he would write verses in just seven minutes. But seven-minute drill wasn't just a lyrical exercise.
Starting point is 02:58:38 It was a straight-up Kendrick diss. He dropped lines like, he's still doing shows but fell off like The Simpsons. Your first stuff was classic, your last album was tragic. Your second album put people to sleep, but they gassed it. Your third album was massive and that was your prime. Cole outright mocked Kendrick's discography, suggesting that Mr. Morrill in the Big Steppers was a flop, to pimp a butterfly was overhyped, and damn was his peak. He continued, spitting.
Starting point is 02:58:56 It's a cold world. Keep the heat under your seat. I got a phone call, they say that somebody's dissing. You want some attention to come with extensions. Here, Cole implied that Kendrick was cloud chasing, that his shots were less about competition and more about grabbing headlines, acclaimed Drake had also made a decade earlier after control. The disc was bold and unexpected, since Jay Cole was finally recognizing the disrespect that Kendrick had been sending at him for years at this point.
Starting point is 02:59:16 The song immediately became one of J Cole's highest charting tracks ever, debuting at number six on the Billboard Hot 100. But then, something strange happened. At Dreamville Fest, just days after dropping seven-minute drill, Cole backed down, and on stage, he told the audience he was removing the song from streaming platforms. He apologized to Kendrick, saying that he regretted the diss and felt bad for going at him. Fans were stunned. Why would Cole take back a response after being publicly disrespected first?
Starting point is 02:59:38 As speculation ran wild, a report surfaced from all hip-hop, revealing that something may have happened behind the scenes. According to sources, Schoolboy Q, one of Kendrick's closest collection. collaborators and fellow T.D.E. Signet, allegedly had a conversation with Jay Cole backstage at Dreamville Fest. The details of the conversation were unclear, but some insiders suggest that Q may have warned Cole about continuing the beef. T. Deere's punch then added more fuel to the fire with the nominous tweet, seemingly confirming that something deeper was at play. With that, Cole was out of the battle, once again taking his seat below Kendrick Lamar and hip-hop. The public perception of Cole as he bowed out was hysterical, with everyone seemingly clowning him online.
Starting point is 03:00:10 However, DJ academics was probably the loudest critic and went on a rant on a stream throwing shade at Cole for back and down. How do you apologize to a- Who got a jump to get on the monkey bars? That's true. It's all true. It's all true. I rarely say this. I want to interview Jay Cole
Starting point is 03:00:34 because I think somebody has to hold him accountable for all the pussy moves he's done in hip-hop. We love and we respect him as a great talent, but we look at him like, the fucking lion in the Wizard of Oz. You don't got a heart. You don't got a heart, my brother. You see, everybody has something about him.
Starting point is 03:01:02 You see, when it comes to Drake, he's a hitmaker. Yeah, he's just a hitmaker. When Drake stops making hits, it's going to be a problem. He's the hit maker. Kendrick I mean he drops an album called Mr. Morale and the big steppers He's a guy who's
Starting point is 03:01:27 Standing for something He has a POV Whether he's saying fuck the big three Or he's saying fuck the industry Whether he believes That's how he moves or not He has this POV that people respect My problem with
Starting point is 03:01:50 Cole is that He's always been stuck in between both Remember that weak-ass song? I think it was on the KOD album. It was like, it was like, no money, don't money. I can't, I'll find the song, Jay Cole. And that was him trying to answer to people saying
Starting point is 03:02:14 he doesn't know how to make hits. So the point of what I'm trying to say, he's never been, he's always been, he's literally the middle child, but it's the middle child of two men. Kendrick and Drake He's literally just Okay, I want to show y'all
Starting point is 03:02:33 I can make hits But I also want to show y'all I stand for something But neither is KOD What's the song? It's a song about money ATM, yeah Just an overt attempt to him
Starting point is 03:02:53 Trying to do some shit We gotta have these conversations with Cole This not the hip hop I like Get Kendrick Yo get this J-Cole on out of here man While the beef was primarily a war between Kendrick and Drake, Jay Cole's name kept getting dragged into the mix, not as a contender, but as an afterthought. Drake was the first to use Cole as collateral damage, casually dismissing both Kendrick
Starting point is 03:03:21 and Cole in push-ups. Then in Family Matters, he took a step further, painting Cole as someone who was stressed over the beef while he himself remained unbothered. This was the underlying narrative that took shape. While Cole had publicly backed away from the battle, Kendrick and Drake refused to let him off the hook. Instead, they used his withdrawal as proof of their superiority. Basically, Cole's decision to back down was perceived not just as an attempt to keep the piece, but as an admission that he couldn't keep up. And of course, Kendrick ran with this.
Starting point is 03:03:44 On Euphoria, Kendrick doubled down, once again making it clear that in his eyes, there was no big three. Kendrick wasn't just responding to Drake. He was reinforcing the message that he had been sending the Cole for years. There was no friendly rivalry, no mutual admiration. In Kendrick's world, he... Now, I'm going to say this, and I'll get the answer later. I'm going to be also very transparent. Certain things I don't ask Drake. It's not that I don't ask him. It's like, Like, yeah, I don't ask him. Those are answers that, and I don't know if he would tell me, because granted, it's legitimate questions, but when those things get answered,
Starting point is 03:04:28 it should be on a podcast. For example, like, I could actually drink about anything. Like, I don't specifically ask, like, I don't ask him like, yo, Was Kendrick really supposed to be on first-person shooter? That should be a thing. Like, if me and him do an interview, we're going to have to, that's a question for the interview.
Starting point is 03:04:54 I don't want to have to come back here where he says nothing. And I'm like, hey, by the way, I talked to Drake. And Drake told me, yes, he was supposed to be on. No. I want him saying that out of his own mouth. Not me. You know what I've never asked him? but I definitely want to
Starting point is 03:05:14 And the reason, and again, I just told you why I don't ask him, I want to say to him, or ask him, did you send, did you send Cole out there on that dummy mission? Because Cole was trying to repeat a lot of your talking points, except once he got the gut check,
Starting point is 03:05:33 he realized he didn't feel the same way as you, and he fell back. And he left you alone. He left you alone to fight and fight. that's the question I would love for him to answer but I don't want a DM answer I don't want a text message answer I don't want a private answer I want him to tell the world what did you think about Cole doing this shit hasn't happened yet but I think it will some point he was the only one that mattered then came not like us the final nail in the coffee even in a track aimed squarely at Drake Kendrick made sure to get one last jab at coal did coal file I don't know why you still pretending this was not just disrespect this was humiliation Kendrick was not just clowning Cole he was using him as an example the underlying message Cole already knew his place why do you think you stand a chance it was a devastating rhetorical move and one that simultaneously
Starting point is 03:06:27 buried coal while applying pressure on Drake Kendrick's treatment of coal throughout the beef was not just about competition it was a reflection of how he had viewed him for years and unlike Kendrick and drake coal is very different he's always been seen as a down-to-earth person with a minimalist lifestyle he's been spotted biking through new york city alone and even attempting a pro basketball career taking a break from rap These decisions reflect his disinterest in playing the industry game at the same level as his peers, and Kendrick doesn't seem to respect the decision. But Kendrick's dismissal of Cole goes back much further than this battle.
Starting point is 03:06:55 From their earliest interactions, like Kendrick trying to take Cole's spot on the 2010 XXL freshman cover, to the way he referenced him in his distract, to their collab ultimately not coming to fruition due to Kendrick's apparent disinterest, through to Cole teaming up with his arch nemesis and Drake. Kendrick has always seen Cole as a step below him. In the end, Kendrick may see his mission to uplift Compton as more important than any industry relationships, To him, proving himself is the best, is not just about competition. It's about...
Starting point is 03:07:18 Your brother, whoever this channel is, I rock with you. Thank you for using my clips. It's fine. I love when you guys use any clips of mine. I never get upset, no matter what it is. But let me sum up this 30-minute documentary. Kendrick Lamar from Double X-L Days met J. Cold, aka J. Fold, and knew he was a bitch
Starting point is 03:07:49 and marked him out for 15 years straight. That's all you have to say, my nigga. He met that nigga and marked him out for 15 consecutive years. That's it. He wanted to take his spot on that particular double Xcel cover because he didn't respect his ass.
Starting point is 03:08:15 Jay Cole tried to defend his own honor and got checked by Kendrick and he apologized for dissing. I've never seen such a bitch nigger move. Jay Cole put himself in the cuff chair. I can't even listen. I can't listen to him the same. I heard Dreamville Fest happen.
Starting point is 03:08:36 I can't even watch it. I can't. Let me tell you this. It's not only rapping ability that takes you to the top. It's you being that nigger. That's why hip-hop is so special. It's not just about your songs. You got to be that guy.
Starting point is 03:08:59 Notariously, they say, In hip hop, you want to be the guy that women want to fuck and men want to be like. Jay Cole is permanently, he's a nigga who you'd be like, yeah, he knows how to put words together, but we'll never talk about him anywhere else. That's reality. This documentary being entitled, why Kendrick never respected him, I agree. I think Kendrick didn't respect Jay Cole because he doesn't look at Jay Cole as a alpha. I think Kendrick is fueled by Napoleon syndrome.
Starting point is 03:09:47 I think he also looked at Drake to say, nigga, I think I could rap better than you. I'll fuck you up. But at least Drake had some fighting him. Jay Cole, not at all. Not at all. Drake is no stranger to rap feuds with infamous clashes against Congress. It's why Farrell never respected Drake. Who the fuck give a fuck about what Farrell respects it?
Starting point is 03:10:15 And respectfully too, because I met Farrell. What the hell? All right. Can't believe I watch a documentary about Jay Cole. Yo, here's a reality of it. No matter what I say about Kendrick, I respect the fact that Kendrick look at these niggas like they're bitches. I like that.
Starting point is 03:10:47 that's the one let me say this Kendrick to me is as closest as we got to Kobe Drake is LeBron in every type of way oh let's be friends
Starting point is 03:11:03 oh let's link up me and Pluto me and Seth nah by the way that's great because a lot of people say we have um
Starting point is 03:11:21 LeBron who's either the best or maybe second best one thing with Kendrick he's like Kobe man put it like this and this is my opinion so I'm not speaking for it
Starting point is 03:11:35 and I could be totally wrong when he dropped control when he see meat mill rap back he probably listened and said this loud mush mouth nigga who's rapping like he's in the passenger seat ordering at a drive-through of sonics or checkers I'm good
Starting point is 03:11:51 one thing I do like about Kendrick he never respected none of these guys I don't think he respects Drake I think he respects Drake I think he He went around Drake and said, man, this is a light-skinned bitch-ass diggle. Now, granted, that's hate, though, because Drake has helped you. But I do respect the hip-hop element where he's like, I don't, like, I don't respect none of the on this.
Starting point is 03:12:21 So if you ask me, I don't think Kendrick respects Drake, this is pre-battle. I don't think he respects. Who else? He respects Pre-battle and he definitely don't respect What? Not me Yeah, no, Jay Cole
Starting point is 03:12:43 What the fuck? Make meil shots, direct this is And moments This video's Who's challenges? I can't stand listening to From London rap When you come in a cop
Starting point is 03:13:14 When he cop go That sounds ridiculous There's nothing macho to me me about a listen here blo. About giving me more money. On the poor, blah, blow, son. I'm playing. Anyway,
Starting point is 03:13:33 J. Cole will be written out of rap history eventually. You know who J. Cole is? I'm going to tell you who J. Cole is. And I hate to say this because it's going to hurt my heart. It's going to hurt my heart to say this. Yo, J. Cole is Tracy McGrady, man. That's it. Never won nothing.
Starting point is 03:14:08 Never did nothing. nothing, but we thought you had all the talent to do whatever you want and to be the best. But somehow you weren't the best. And eventually we're going to get a new Jay Cole who's actually about that shit and that person's going to get the success. Just like how we got a new McGready and they got a success. You know who the new McGready was? K.D.
Starting point is 03:14:34 Now granted, Katie still ain't, you know, I mean, you want a couple things, but. with Steph or whatever, who cares? The whole point is this. I literally do not believe that what Cole got going on is anything that will be memorable beyond this era. Kendrick is going to be remembered. It's like Biggie and Pop. Matter of fact, you know what?
Starting point is 03:15:25 I'm not giving them Tracy McGregor. I like Tracy too much. Now, I... I got another comparison for J-Cole. Jay-Cole, you know who you are? You're Clyde Drexler. Let me tell you what they said about Clyde Drexler doing as Earth. They said Clyde Drexler would have been Michael Jordan if we didn't have Michael Jordan.
Starting point is 03:15:49 Think about it. Clyde Drexler would have been Michael Jordan if we didn't have Michael Jordan. Now let's think about it. when it comes to people like J. Cole, J. Cole would have been Kendrick, or he would have played the Kendrick role, like this antagonist that represents the real, blah, blah, blah, blah, against, like, say, the people who were these fluff mainstream songs
Starting point is 03:16:22 if we didn't have Kendrick. So all he's known is the guy who could have been that person, but he wasn't. And that's really what it is. So you know what? I'm not comparing with Tracy McGregy. I'm going to compare him to
Starting point is 03:16:41 Clyde Drexler. That's it. That's it. All right, people. Yo, chat. I know I just looked at a time. We did about three hours and 20 minutes or so
