Am I sounding good.
Mike check.
Mike check.
What is this?
Mike check one, two.
Mike check one, two.
Big Ac is in the building.
Clean your airwax.
Adjust your screens.
Rip that fucking privacy screen off your goddamn phone.
Your bitch ain't catching you cheating when you watching me.
We're back in the building.
Ack is here.
Ack is here.
Somebody said, close some tabs.
I don't know what's going.
What do you mean close some tabs?
Am I good?
Am I lagging?
What's popping?
What's popping? The audio is good.
So I figured out my audio issue.
So, you know, I always like to keep you out.
This was going on in the studio.
Okay?
I told you.
So this is an actual studio.
Oh, you can't.
You guys never see that corner.
It's a plexiglass thing.
I got it from Sway Lee's house.
You can record stuff there.
I actually recorded some of the little act stuff in there.
Shout to Chosen when he was here.
Um, a bunch of Hs8, H.S8, if you're a producer, know what those are.
KRAKs and we got like big big fucking
subs on the floor
it's all padded and yeah
when I bought this house this was a library I converted it's all good
so this is a full on studio
and we have like a $3,000 mic
it's actually over there
so it's fully capable of recording
anything we want when I was going on a little act path
which by the way a little act might make a comeback
I was definitely invested in.
And also, I'm an audio file.
Okay, if you don't know, over there, that's just decoration.
There's a full on, there's a full mixer there, and there's a DJ equipment.
I forgot the CD, it's not CDJ's, it's a pioneer.
Anyway, the best DJ equipment there.
And of course, you know, in the back, hell, yeah, I see the Jamaican flag.
Well, well, wait, there.
Anyway.
So, yeah, this is a studio that I record out of it.
I don't know if you know.
I'll tell you why I was having audio issues.
I figured it out, but I'm still troubleshooting a little bit.
So first of all, I use, there's a huge rack over here that works with the studio shit,
but then stream doesn't use a studio equipment.
It routes it through some call, I don't even name the equipment.
But the equipment, what I think happens is because where I live at is kind of remote.
It's just a bunch of mansions here.
So at times there's power loss because there's like, you know, it's like the city,
then you go into a bunch of woods and that's where I live at.
So we'll lose power sometimes.
Apparently, I think the power surges, it'll fuck up my main equipment to send sound.
So if you ever notice my sound gets weird, it's because it fried, like some power surge fried my equipment.
So essentially I have to switch out the equipment, but I don't even think it's the equipment.
I think it's like the little power cable thing.
I'm going to troubleshoot that later.
So we should be good now
Because I put a new one there
I usually order like four of them
They're like 400 dollars a piece
But whatever
But I really think it's the power supply
I think the power supply
When I lose power and I gain power
Like there's like 600 amps
Coming into this house
So like
When you lose power and then power comes back
It fries a lot of shit
That's not protected by like
Ultimate search protector
So I think it always fries my sound equipment
But I don't think
is the equipment. I think it fries the fucking, anyway, whatever. It's too much technical details for
up. Okay, anyway, we're good. And I apologize for not streaming last night. I did gamble
last night, lost. But I didn't stream, but I am back on some good equipment, and we are here
for the day. And we could, we could chat about whatever, and we'll get into all the topics.
So thank you guys, and thank you for your patience. I did do a podcast yesterday with DJ
Vlad. It is for our podcast, off the record. It will.
come out tomorrow around 1 to 1.30. So actually, between 1 and 3, actually. Let me just say that.
So I would love if you guys would tune into the main channel, you'll see an interview with me and Vlad.
And we're talking about everything. Some of the normal conversations, but there are some new stuff that you guys could kind of like bite into.
Other than that, I do apologize for the people who I don't think we exactly hit, I think we went six days in a row.
I don't think we went seven days and I promise you guys seven days.
So I do apologize and I'm sorry.
Nevertheless, we are trying to get back into a regular rhythm of streaming every day, giving content every day.
And yes, trust me, as much as you guys think I'm just like, just a slack off, I am trying.
All right?
So, you know, for the people who do appreciate the effort, I appreciate you.
And for the people who are still frustrated, I hope to get better for you.
All right.
Okay.
We have a shit ton of topics.
I don't think we have any housekeeping things.
Well, one housekeeping thing.
I'm still deciding on the venue.
I'm still deciding on the venue for a next live show.
I'm in L.A. in October.
I don't know if they've announced this yet,
but ComplexCon has booked me again.
Come on, Complex loves me.
Come on, it's Big Ack.
Come on, you've got to have Big Aag.
So Big Act will be in L.A. for a fact.
Okay, for ComplexCon.
I know Cardi's performing.
Who else is performing?
Well, let's look it up.
We've signed our contract.
Complex Con,
2026.
We will be there.
Okay, Ken Carson,
Playboard Cardi, Apollo Red,
Destroy Lonely.
And who are these other?
They got things in like mini...
Oh, never mind.
That's not whatever.
Anyway, Big Act will be here.
That's all you need to fucking know.
Big Act.
will be motherfucking in that building.
And I don't know.
Maybe I'll link up with Cardi.
Maybe me and Cardi do some shit, right?
That would be cool.
So we will be here.
We're doing the stage.
I feel like I'm probably snitching on the comp.
Well, not snitching, but like, yeah, they got me on a panel.
So last year I did my own thing with DDG.
They got me on a panel.
I got to figure out, we're about a hit Complex to figure out no ops.
You bring an op there.
I'm cussing an nigga out live, all right?
So they got me on some shit about album with the.
year.
They know what they're doing.
They know AC is coming in with the Iceman season, right?
Oh, it's 2026.
You got me on a complex panel.
It's Iceman season.
But apparently they're going to have some other people and it's not just my show.
Before it was my show.
With DDG last year, it's my show.
Okay, it's my show.
This time they're like, act, could you be on a panel and I'm like, all right, here's a
premium.
Just throw this on the mix.
But we'll pop out.
We do love Complex.
complex shows me some love, you know, even sometimes they're shady.
But we're going to be there.
So they're going to have me on a panel where we're debating in front of a live audience.
It's going to be like six, seven hundred people.
Debate an album or the year.
And I can't wait for these, like, no disrespect to whoever they're going to be.
They didn't tell me who they're going to bring.
But it's probably a bunch of losers.
I'm going to keep it being with you.
A bunch of losers, blames.
Might even be some ops.
Like, I was trying to, like, I mean, I do have the leverage to be like, yo, bro, if you have
ops on there. I'm not going.
But I'm going to be honest. I don't give a fuck.
Don't give a fuck. So,
we're going to be debating
album of the year. It's going to be October.
I'm in LA. I know.
The gang members are going to be right there ready to rush
the stage. Don't worry. I'm coming with
mad security. Don't worry.
You feel with me? Like, don't worry.
Okay. A 2-2-3
and a 9-millimeter and a hollow point
will stop all the fuck shit that y'all got
going on. Don't worry. I got it.
And plus complex got to give me 10 security.
We go.
but that's what's happening um so i'm going to be debating album of the year in l a
versus a bunch of unknown random probably relevant niggis um i think complex is smart enough
there's a few people just don't have a uh uh um opposed to me i don't want to be on no goddamn
panel with no fucking rory okay this is this is not the time but you know you want to
have your little local
you want to have your
little local
LA
dickhead
yeah you could go on stage
you know I'm going to keep the same energy
but it's whatever
so we're going to debate that
it should be a great show
but I am going to be in LA
for like I think probably a week
or around that time so
here's the thing
I wanted to do a show in L.A.
Okay and or a popout
or what was it like pop-up shop or whatever
so we're trying to figure that out
you know according to our contract
even though I'm booked, confirmed.
For this, I could have a show before or after.
I just can't be available for these two days.
So I'm working to trying to do a show.
Again, more of what we've been doing,
except I wanted to lean more into a set,
more of like a comedy stuff.
I don't even know if I'm bringing out someone.
Maybe I do.
But do that in a pop-up shot, more meat and greens,
just kind of like a round, maybe a couple hundred people.
just light.
So we're trying to figure that out.
So if you're in L.A.
I was being suggested Vegas for a while to be like,
hey,
you should just go to Vegas and do it there.
I'm like,
no,
let's do it in L.A.
So L.A., keep in mind,
you might get a date October 2nd,
October 1st, October 5th,
October 6th, or 7th.
Those are the three or four dates we're looking at
that I'm going to probably do an event
because I'm going to be honest with you.
I go to L.A.
once a year.
think LA sucks.
I'm sorry.
It sucks.
It's too much gang bangers.
They're all broke.
Okay?
I'm not under Kendrick's program.
And when I come out there, I like to get everything done because I don't want to care
about the baseball hat that I'm wearing.
I don't know if it offends your gang.
Okay.
I don't want y'all treat me like the game.
All right?
You try to treat the game?
They're bitching him like a little boy.
I can't believe this is the rapper.
I used to look up to the game.
He's a 6-5 rapper.
Look like he got the.
squabbles of like of of of of the greek god aries they're treating them like a bum they're talking
about him like you so anyway i'm going protected i think i'm bringing the ovio owl out there
drake hasn't been back to to the west coast big act will be the first i'm the first to go to the
kensig show i'll be the first to go to the west coast it's okay big act goes anywhere so anyway
uh you know we're figuring out a venue you know make sure we're going to take all precautions and uh
Yeah, you know, just something like, you know, because I love L.A.
I do love L.A.
You know what I mean?
I'm not checking in with Kendrick.
So for anybody who are Top Dog or whoever the hell or TD, we're not checking out.
Okay, no checking.
No checking.
No checking.
I'd rather hire the FBI as my, I rather be hired the FBI agent that's going to date y'all to come with me rather than check in.
So I'm just let you all that already.
Anyway, we'll be having a good time.
So yeah, so for our fourth show, I'm actively planning it.
If you guys don't know, keep your eyes open.
it's probably not going to be that big of a venue just because it's so much bullshit with L.A.
We're trying to keep it light.
Get in.
Do some shit for the people.
Get out.
Sorry.
You know?
It's not like Toronto.
I go to Toronto.
I'm like, yo, I'm walking around that bitch like I'm the king of the city.
Okay?
New York.
New York is love.
Anyway, we'll get to it.
What else?
What else?
My people are in the building.
I'm good in L.A.?
All right.
I'm good.
Wait, who's that?
Mike B. 928, Mike B, if you don't come to the show, Tom, I'm good in L.A.
Are you going to be at the show with me?
As long as I'm there with you.
Okay.
All right, a lot of things to talk about today, chat.
I'm glad you guys are here.
I did speak about some of the stuff on my gambling stream.
I hate doing that, though.
Why?
Because I'm doing a gambling stream.
A gamble.
I want to do light conversations, life combo, but not hip-hop topics.
Because when I do get into hip-hop topics, I want to get it all the way.
into it. And we will. Like, for example, I did discuss previously about, you know, everyone very critical
about the Drake kick live stream. And they're like, oh, well, we don't like this about it. We don't like
that about it. This is juvenile. This is amateur. This is, you know, we'll talk about all that stuff.
He's since responded. Okay. There's a lot of like legs and a lot of things happening that, you know,
disrespectfully. Disrespectfully. I appreciate it. Okay. So, where should we start?
Ray Daniels. So much the camera work was top-notch. Where? What do you talk about? The camera work.
So I said, act, you a top 25 streamer who would have thunk it? I'll go over that list too. I'll go over that list too.
Okay? I will. Absolutely I will. Remind me.
We're kicking it today.
Somebody says, would you go and steal a TDE chain LA?
No, no, no, no.
That's L.A.
is TDE area.
Me, here's the thing.
I'm showing up to L.A.
I'm not showing to L.A.
Yo, just like I show up to the Kendra concert, but I'm going to just know what type of time
niggas is on.
I showed up to Kendra concert, not there to try to like, oh, let me see if I could go
backstage and punk these niggas.
I showed up and I bought a suite.
I'm sorry.
It's a little $20,000 suite I bought it's okay
I bought the jumbo suite
The sweet that no you know most sweets hold like 12
I can hold 30
It's okay
Big I came through
Give me the 30 suite
It's fine
I just wanted to watch the show
All of a sudden these gang banging Crip niggas
They're all twisting up their face
You got Dave free thinking
He mad that that Drake put stepdaddy allegations on him
Or whatever the fuck
You got all these other niggas
They're like yo one nigga
He walked up he was literally
I'm like, it's not like us playing.
He's already Cripwalking.
He walked up Crip Walk.
I'm like, what the fuck is this?
Anyway, you know, the staff of the building, no matter what, it was their concert, but they stopped
him at the door and said, you hooligans, you naggers, you naggers, you got to cut it out.
Can't just run up in here and do whatever.
I know it's your concert, but this guy paid 30 bands for this suite.
What's up?
Anyway, I allowed them to come, well, I allowed, what's the first thing of him?
Anthony Niggins to come through.
I told him leave the security outside.
He didn't.
And then Dave Free came through,
and Dave Free was, you know, he was,
I told him he was like frothing at the mouth.
I don't know what's up with him.
Like, he needs a shot, a tetanus shot.
I don't know what Drake did to him.
But after I reminded him that Drake address,
y'all put his address on a flyer,
he caught amnesia, he act like he never knew nothing about Drake.
And he was acting like,
yeah, I forgot.
We were just waiting to run into one.
Come on.
You know, that's a lot.
Anyway, we'll get into that.
Let's start.
Where should we start?
We should start somewhere.
We should start somewhere.
No, dude, I want to be, yo, Dave Free was not crying.
He looked like a rabid dog foaming from the mouth.
He looked like he was unhinged.
And I'm going to be honest with you,
I think that was his best effort of trying to show that he's a businessman.
That's a gangster.
Dave Free is known as a businessman.
Okay?
He's, you know, obviously Drake drug him into the beef,
but, you know, he's with Kenner.
but he's known as a businessman.
He came through frothing, like heathen.
Listen, I'm not a doctor, but he looked like he had mad cow disease.
And I was watching him, and I was just, and he was like, he was like, he was like, he's like,
he's like, we could do something right now.
And I'm looking around.
He has a few security.
I have a few security.
And that was to me, the complete L.A. shit where they're talking about squabbles and
everything while we're standing two like less than a feet from each other actually like six inches
away from each other he's talking about what they're going to do while i had people with me yeah we're
a little bit out number that one like but that was the epitome i'm like bro breathe it's okay
reminding him that his beef was his drake and he's yact like he just couldn't find drake i'm like
yo you know what i wish i did i didn't do this you know i'm not liar
I would have pulled up like the not like us cover and be like that's where Drake lives.
I don't know why you're, if you're saying you can't find him so you found me.
And ironically, you found me at your show.
Go there and I think Drake will be there.
And not only will he be there, might have a few people that will have whatever.
They didn't want to do it.
They don't want to do it.
They don't want to do it.
They don't want to.
I don't know.
Whatever.
Okay.
Let's get into it.
Come on, come on, chat.
We got all day.
We got all day.
Perfect.
Perfect.
Okay.
So, where should we start?
Spam some stuff.
YB called me out.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I'm, I don't.
I haven't spoke to YB and, you know, I'm going to be very honest and open.
I'm not even going to speak about him and like, I don't even play his interview today.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I don't know what's going on with him.
I've talked to him at times.
Like, you know, I talked to him like maybe last week.
I know he's in, like, Korea.
But I can't understand fully what he's going through
and what is really on his mind.
Because, you know, even what he called me out for,
he's like, well, why would you post what my mom said?
And I'm like,
Well, you said you won't speak to your mom.
Your mom responded with something that I wouldn't know if it's true.
But then you're triggered that someone posted what your mom said.
So it's like when that happens, I don't think I need to go back to YB and be like,
yo, YB, do you give me permission to like to post what your mom said?
Is it facts?
Or should I just be like, I'll stay out of your family business.
I've met your mom.
She's an amazing person to me.
I have nothing bad to say about her.
Clearly, me and you are cool.
but whatever you have going on with that mix,
it's like how I treat your baby mamas
when I know you care about it.
This is an intimate situation
that you brought online.
I don't even want to touch it.
You got it, brother.
So out of respect for you
and how much I care for you
and I love you and I don't know the full situation,
you've never called me talking about your parents, right?
Like we talked about other stuff, not your parents.
I'm going to just let that go.
There's no commentary I have about it.
There's no, I don't,
choose her side or your side, I'm going to leave that alone.
And I think maybe that's what was your intended thing.
I'm going to leave you guys along with that.
Okay?
So I can't, you know, for the YB fans,
I can't currently speak to the place he's at currently.
And I'll leave it there respectfully where I'm not going to blind these.
It's like, no, YB is my man.
So if he says, fuck anybody.
Like, this is not family stuff because you know what happens.
Bro, it's a beef with your mom.
Like, you're not.
and your mom are going to be cool. Like, I've heard you talk about her in the craziest way,
and she was the princess, without all the respect of your tour. She came through, had all access,
had all her friends, had the family with her. I saw multiple times. I gave her multiple hugs.
I'll just stay out of it. You know, I'm not going to turn this into, oh, oh, YB, I believe you.
So, no, I'm not going to, no. So I'm just going to exit the group chat. And for the people who, you know,
there's going to be people to try to play on my ego, like, yo, but, but, what?
what he said about you, I'm like, you know what?
I'll take that because it's a mother and a son,
but I'm just going to say I'm picking no side.
I'm just going to leave.
Let whatever they have going on play out
because I do respect and care for them both.
And I think that's the best way to go.
You know, I don't want to add to any narrative either way.
So love to YB.
I know he's in, was it, South Korea?
he's going through a time.
He's experiencing,
think about the people who are outside the country,
whether by force or by choice,
Kanye,
he's been pretty much outside the country.
He's going through
and also experiencing a lot of different things
that it's making him think very differently.
And YB's at that place right now.
He's not in Louisiana.
He's not in Baton Rouge.
He's not in L.A.,
which, I mean, L.A. is not really his place.
place, but he's not in Utah.
I think, you know, and some of you might think, like, this is a little of a sucker
issue of you, but no, I actually care about him enough to be like, you know what, I've seen him.
I've seen him in certain states.
Let him rock, but he knows I'm always here for.
100% of fact, okay?
So, yeah, I feel no way about it, but again, this is, this is, this is, this is, this is,
This is son, mom thing.
Let's stay out of that one.
Okay, let's respectfully stay out of that one.
Okay.
I guess we should start with the fallout of this idea of Drake doing this 20V1.
Now I'm going to hit you with a bunch of clips.
There's no need to hit you with it.
I'm here to talk to y'all.
about these things.
And I know you've heard your favorite podcaster,
which I hope is me.
But, well, actually, I don't want to be a podcast.
Your favorite media person, I wish I hope is me.
But you may have like, you know, listen from this person,
listen from that person.
Also, I don't want to age shame.
Right?
Because you might be like,
you know, man, I've been listening to you since I was 25.
I'm 38 now.
So when you kind of mention people about to turn 40,
you're talking to me.
Or you might be like, I was listening to you at 31.
Now I'm 45.
And maybe I share some of the similar things that people like Wayno or, you know, Charlemagne or whoever was saying about Drake.
I don't want to make this a age-specific thing.
But I do want to give an explanation and I don't need to play a clip.
So let me explain.
When I'm explaining, before I get into it, I hate that I have to give a, just a blanket.
it's almost of a
I have to
what is it call
why I just live my mind
it's the
oh disclaimer
sorry
I hate that I got to give a disclaimer
because everyone thinks that I'm only saying
this because me and
Drake are cool it's not
it's not and and
I guess I'm going to
choose my words a little bit wisely because
I think some of these media members think they're
bigger than the program in a sense
of they think that, you know, it's all about what they said as opposed to the general sentiment.
So let me just make this clear.
I noticed a couple years ago, it's been probably for me about like seven, eight years ago
that the way Drake is operating with his career is that Drake is constantly seeking, or, you know,
well, I'm going to use the word seeking.
He might not.
he wants to still appeal to the current audience that shifts culture.
Who is the current audience that shifts culture?
The ones that make up the TikTok dances,
the ones that make up all the slangs or the lingoes,
like there's, you know, all the catchies.
He still wants to be a thing with them.
Every artist, and I've said this years ago,
you know, I wonder if I ever, well, I wonder if I ever told you who gave me this,
but it was really profound and I really respected it when they said it.
I think I could.
I'll say it now.
It was my man Steve Stout.
Me and me and Steve Stout was on, you know,
we always rapped about the industry, you know.
Steve Stout loves me, I love him, you know,
United Masters, even though he does rock with Jay, but it's okay.
And at one point he said to me,
this was when Drake was dropping two C slide.
I think that song is about like close to 10 years old.
And he says,
you know what, Drake right now is at a fork in a road.
And I said, what do you mean?
He said, and I want to give him credit for the statement
because I believe he was right.
I still believe he's still right.
He says, well, Drake is going to have to pick two choices, between two choices.
He's going to have to age gracefully with his audience and age out of some of the things that the kids or the contemporaries, the current, might want him to be or do.
Or he's going to be trying to appeal to the contemporary and the updating changing of the country.
culture, but here's the thing.
With that,
that is, you know, because people don't want to admit hip hop,
yes, the people with money and hip hop are 30 plus.
Let me break down demographics.
The people with money and hip hop are 30 plus.
Spending power, 30 plus.
Attention power, 18 to 25.
Actually lower.
16 to 25.
The people in the middle, 25,
like plus that like to 32 or whatever you know who those people are those people are
when it's convenient it's almost like you know it's a middle culture that doesn't really matter
that much so you either want the youngest of audiences that's going to be spamming you all day
the NBA young boys that got them think about other artists who have these rabid fam that they're young
or you want the people who are a little bit older,
but we're not too old,
because now they got jobs,
they've had it for a couple years,
they got two promotions,
they might even have a kid,
they might have a bitch,
but they could now spend $300 on your concert ticket.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Put it in perspective.
Young boy just said,
his tour, he gained $1.5 million.
By the way, he sold every fucking seat.
They went in multiple times to say,
Those areas were blocking out because when a niggis standing there,
they could only see half the stage because there's a big thing in front of them
or the stage is like they could only see half a young boy.
They opened that up for young boy because people didn't care.
They wanted to see young boy.
So the money he made, $1.5 million on average per show,
is selling every fucking ticket because people knew that shit was popping.
Here's the difference with Drake.
Drake is going into these arenas pulling that $4 million.
the same arenas.
Four million dollars.
Why?
Because his audience, on average,
is going to spend $300.
Young boy's audience is spending
80 bucks on average.
These are rough estimates.
Don't hold me to them.
But that's the point.
So why did I tell you that?
Well, I told you that for a reason.
Because when I
mentioned J. Cole last rappers,
he's appealing to, I think,
the dead zone. The niggies with a job.
the niggas who aren't super invested
but they're also not super rich
or they're not their financial peak
let's just say it let's not say super rich
and the fork in the road
go back to that that analogy is that
I can and mark my words
Jay Cole in the next six years he's not retired
you know the niggis is lying I'm retiring
I wish Jay Cole retired I just think he's a waste man
I'm sorry there's nothing I like about Jake
nothing
Nothing.
You could have gave me 10 bands.
I'm not going to Jay Colts concert.
There's nothing I like about him.
He's just like, to me,
he's the epitome of a loser.
He's like the consolation prize in hip-up.
I don't want to go to his concert.
That's not what I would like.
It doesn't attract mad bitches.
It just attracts a bunch of losers,
in my opinion.
Right?
But I'll tell you this.
In about like five years or so,
or actually, maybe even now,
Jay Cole's tour probably grows great because his audience has grown to be the point where they could spend a lot if he's going to charge a lot.
He probably doesn't charge a lot.
Okay, let me bring it back to the original point.
You either grow with your audience or keep adjusting and adapted.
Okay.
I noticed back when Drake did Tusi slide, Drake has been on a mission to appease the audience that's grown with him from 2008 to a lot.
to appease him somewhat,
but also appease an audience
that might be like,
well, we know him because he's popular,
but we don't know his music like that.
That's a 17-year-old.
So whether he's doing a song like Tussie Slide
and he's doing a TikTok,
whether he's like popping up on a stream with Ninja,
whether he's like, you know, with Aidan Ross,
again, I've acknowledged,
and I'm a fan of him
that's in my mid-30s.
I've acknowledged that the path he's taken is that he's trying to balance or do both.
Here's my thing.
If I was the person who felt I had or my opinion about his career is that he got to do X, Y, and Z to grow like X, Y, and Z or he got to act his age, I would have hopped off the bandwagon.
Damn near 10 years ago.
Drake for the last 10 years has not given whatever people think is the natural growth of an MC and as a man and go get married and start tailing.
Drake is still the same person I would argue that you guys were introduced at when he was 26, 27.
I forgot what album he dropped then.
It's the same guy.
I've accepted it.
I've accepted it.
The thing with a lot of these media niggas, they believe they could bully an artist into being what they want.
They could dictate to an artist.
And a lot of times they do that.
Oh, well, this artist, you know, he just hasn't grown.
He just hasn't matured.
He just hasn't, whatever.
That's who I call J. Cole ass rappers because they actually, you could tell they're rationalized their own choices with what people.
things. What I do like about Drake is that I don't think Drake does that at all. By the way,
I know something I'm like, well, if you agree with everything he does, no, there's been times that I wanted
X type of content from him and he didn't give me that. You know what he did? He gave me what was
him. On a bash, he did not give a fuck if I'm going to like it. That was what he was doing.
And I do think that was the point I was trying to make recently in hip-hop media. For the people who are
still judging Drake.
How come a 20V1 is like the last straw for you?
It wasn't the painted nails or it wasn't Tusi slide.
Wasn't him playing Fortnite.
It wasn't him like slide into this Instagram bat.
What I'm trying to say is that the nigger has showed you a million times that if you feel
like he needs to grow to this mature grandpa, he's not that.
He's not that.
How long are you going to keep imposing your standards of what you feel he should be on him without you just being honest to yourself and say, he won't ever be that?
He will never follow my train of mentally maturing or doing this content.
I'm going to be either off this.
I'm going to be off this because he's not doing it or I'm just going to watch how it goes.
So anytime I see somebody be like, oh, look, why is he barking for a 24-year-old girl?
Have you listened to his music?
Do you think this just started?
Everyone act like this just started.
Are you listening to the music of the guy?
Now, granted, I don't have a problem with what Drake is doing because I believe he's living is true.
I point out the fact that he's not just rapping about relationships acting like he's 27.
and he's actually, whether you want to call it,
you know, they want to call it arrested development.
Whether you want to call it arrested development or not,
he's dating these girls.
He's in the scene.
He's just rapping about his life.
And for me, that's fine.
A lot of people in hip-hop media, you know,
I feel like they're in a tough spot.
Here's a reality about it.
Because you know what they're going to say,
well, act, you know, well, you do that.
Like, you feel like you're the only one
that should talk about him.
And maybe they believe that comes with me,
never criticize him.
That's not true.
That's not true at all.
The reality is that the majority of hip-hop media,
they will describe what they believe he's doing,
what they believe he's morphed into,
what they believe is like the values he holds sacred,
and they'll almost be disgusted by it,
yet they follow every move.
If your ass sat on like, was it a Friday,
night and you didn't go out with your girl, you could have been cuddling in bed with your wife,
because that's what these niggas do.
They all got wives, right?
Y'all got wives, y'all got multiple kids, y'all got all this shit going on, but you're
going to watch a single 39-year-old man be on a live stream where he's gambling $2 million
and then you're judging him with what your life is probably doesn't add up.
That's all I'm trying to say.
but these people won't let go of the fact that this guy won't ever be on the same page as their morals
because he gets them paid and that's why I told him I said listen
yes I'm not gonna lie hey you want to hear Drake criticism
him giving an only fans bitch who gets fucked on camera for millions 50 bands
that's not a shit I'm into however I will say for y'all hip-hop media dudes
the reason of him giving you the fodder to talk about
is what gets your family paid as well.
That's a reality of it.
And I don't say it to be not inclusive.
Me too.
Here's the problem.
I don't sit here and act like I hate what I keep covering.
How many of these media niggas act like they hate what they keep covering?
It's one thing if you love it and you keep covering.
It's another thing to act like, oh man, I got to do another.
video.
Fuck.
Man, why does this bitch-ass nigga Drake keep doing this?
Brother, you know why you're doing it.
Drake then gave you the content to feed your family for a week.
It's okay.
Not saying you have to like him, but also understand that the people that you like give
you nothing.
That's the reality.
If Kendrick does some corny shit, it's not on camera.
He doesn't do it for your amusement.
Maybe you think, oh, no, that's more admirable.
but how would you pay
that AT&T bill this month
how would you pay
the rent
so the Drake hate is always inclusive
come on now you
you have some
you have this big lip black nigger
screw face whatever on YouTube
the guy has zero motion
until Drake gives him something to hate about
he's been reporting if you look at his channel
he's been a report like the battle is two months old
he's still going
oh look at what
what Drake did. You ask him what he feels about Drake, he hates Drake. Shouldn't even be
ad rev as Drake rev when it comes to him. It's all these guys, whether it's like Anthony
Fantano, whether it's like eBomb, like whatever these guys are. I'm going to be honest with you,
maybe Waino took a break. I haven't seen a Waino video in two weeks. Promise you. This week,
Wayno is all over my algorithm. Why? It can be because the guy you dislike. I haven't seen
Wayne-o in my, maybe he took a break. I don't know. I didn't know. But I haven't seen
Wayno in my algorithm. So that's why at some point I sit back and I say, how do you
claim y'all are all anti this, but you focus on the thing? And that's why when people say,
well, act, why are you speaking up for that? I, I've been doing this for years. I've been
telling whether it's a Joe Bunn podcast, whether it's the Charlemains of this world,
whether it's the, what's a guy named Rob Markman, Drake is not.
trying to get your approval, actually, you could just call it here. He will never do anything for
you to be like, you know what, I respect it. So either you're going to just be a obsessed
hater trying to get a check, which that's fine, or you're going to keep covering a nigger who
clearly is not even trying to appeal to you at all. Like he's not everything he's doing,
I could understand if Aiden Ross and maybe like some people like in that demographic,
not even just Aidan Ross,
the people who watch Drewski and laugh,
let's just say that because we're talking about niggas.
If they came up like, nah, drink was kind of corny with it.
If they said something, I think it would matter.
The hip-hop like pundits and the journalists of the world who think like, you know,
you know, like he's, you.
guys are like the most disregarded people in what he's trying to do why do you keep imposing
your standards when someone is not even trying to meet it unless you just want to have a bad
session which i only can feel is for money anyway i digress so that was my thing with the the 20
v1 let me also explain one more thing with the 20 v1 i don't want to keep um dragging it here and
you know shot shot to drake you know he didn't have a conversation with the home
reasons about it slightly.
And without, you know, you know, I'm not here to like verbatantly play of shit, but
he made a very solid point.
And I agree with the point.
You know what the point was?
It's like, yo, yo, check this out.
I'm one of the first rappers to completely take over S&L.
Current rapper.
Takeover S&L.
I'm playing a role here.
I'm giving jokes here.
I'm dressing up in costume.
I'm doing silly shit.
every time when I did that,
people applaud it.
He's one of the first rappers to host the S-P's.
Now, here's the thing where I think this is where Drake excels
while people are always confused
and then they wonder why he's still on top.
There is no platform currently,
and I know you want to say,
no, why don't you just go on it's going us or no?
It's the same reason rappers don't want to go
in the Breakfast Club, they want to go on Big Bank.
The newer platforms become a little bit more boutique,
they become a little bit cooler than the older platforms.
So Drake getting off a skit on, oh, I'm going to date,
I'm going to play into a pop culture thing of dating 20 women.
Nigger, that would be an SNL thing.
That would be something you would see him like parody at the S-Ps.
But these days, that's not the places where people see these type of parody or whatever content.
Now, you know what people wouldn't be mad at if it was like some Drewski shit?
shit. Like if it was Drewski, I think like, like, Drewski's so loved that people like, oh, man, that's fire.
Now, Drake got with Drewski. Oh, that was fire. But the point is, people are knocking Drake for doing some innocent, silly shit that he's always done.
Everyone's saying they're disappointed. If he had done this at the SPs, not this. Oh, my God, Drake fucking killed it.
If he did this at S&L, oh, man, man, we keep telling y'all. He need to go.
act.
He does this with the knelt boys, which, by the way, here's the thing for a different generation,
maybe the crowd that you're not into, the knelt boys are what SNL is in a different version,
just YouTube.
That's their vertical.
But everybody has something to say.
That's as much as, even as related to that conversation, I understand.
for everyone who is shocked that he barked at a girl
have y'all ever
just Google Drake and S&L
was there anyone who talked
Drake
Drake? Drake SNL
y'all remember Drake with the
dread wig? Y'all remember these
yeah so y'all remember none of these
right? Y'all remember none of these
not everyone
okay yeah I don't remember none of these
where is the shit
Boy, oh boy.
Y'all remember none of these, right?
Y'all remember like a month ago he's fucking kicking it with or he's on a commercial with KD and he's kind of playing a role as well.
Right?
Look, nobody remembers this.
This is 10 years ago.
Shout to Jay Farrow.
Shout to Keenan.
But where are the platforms?
And again, y'all are judging Drake like he's just some new guy or he's like some weird guy.
trying to fit in.
He's been doing this.
So what, Drake is 39?
So he did this at 29.
This is 10 years ago.
This is 10 years ago.
So what's the difference?
But here's the problem.
And this is why, and this is my critique to like people like, um, Wayno.
Wayno and people like them like J. Cole last rappers.
Where they could be like, all right, when you did this at 29, it was cool.
but no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no more it is.
No more it is.
You need to be serious.
You need to be this.
And here's the real silver lining.
When Drake was 29 doing this,
you'd think if he listened to Wayne O'Clark,
he would have became a billionaire rapper by Just Streams?
Yes or no.
Do you think if you listen to Charlemagne the God
in how he talks about him now,
he would have been the biggest rapper in the world.
You guys just tell me.
So when you hear this in 2026, and everybody back then
was either like singing a different tune or they just didn't understand
when they now try to put Drake down for Lincoln with streamers,
oh shit, why is he talking about speed, why is he always with Aiden Ross,
why is he shouting at XUZ, why is it an apartment that could be like train wrecks?
why is he doing that
back then when
he was this
this person that's 10 years ago let's go back 10 years
10 years that's 2016 right after
views drop or around the time views is dropping
do you think that
Wayne O'Clark
Leonard McElhelfy Charleston the God
Ebum and any
of these guys who are older
out of touch
right those were the people
to listen to let me give you another one
let's get Drake out of here let's bring me into it
Do y'all remember, listen, I could even use Joe as an example.
When I was on everyday struggle, let me tell you all the truth.
This is a fact.
I asked Joe.
Joe suggested after like, you know, the chat niggas is going crazy, blah, blah,
and I streamed before one of the, like, an episode I was big,
Joe suggested to complex that they should suspend me because I was streaming the night before an episode.
In 2017, that sounded great.
Who cares about your little live stream?
You're on a big show.
It's everyday struggle.
Could you look up and see what's going on now?
Kyson and that's kicking everybody's ass.
Plackboy Max is like one of the biggest streamers.
Speed is the biggest streamer.
Everybody is streaming.
But back then, these guys said, let's suspend act.
He shouldn't be doing live streams.
You see why you can't listen to these guys?
they're antiquated and old and out of touch.
So when they criticize whether Joe, me, or anyone else,
usually their critique is telling you you're doing something right.
Trust me.
Nigel, when I used the stream, they said,
you're in your mama's basement.
I probably make 20 times the amount, like, think about like Laura LaRose,
I probably make 20 times she makes.
Just you got to stop listening to the noise.
There are some people that won't take a chance.
They're too stuck in the box.
Just like how Waino said,
yeah, you're damn near 40.
You should be, stop it.
That's the problem.
Never listen to those guys.
And I'm saying this for upcoming creators.
Everything they told me I should be doing
ended up having no value.
Nah, you need to stop this.
You need to go intern for a radio station.
Imagine if I had said, let me stop.
creating online content and go intern for a radio station.
How would that have turned out?
And I'm only saying that this is not picking up for Drake,
but it's to really just tell the people,
yo, wano, you're like two and a half seconds
into this online independent media creating content community.
Maybe if it was Vlad who was 25 years in,
I could be like, all right, well, Vlad is saying it.
You clearly have never been progressive.
You clearly have never been ahead of the 8.
You have been the person that the train is going and you hop on to it.
Same with Charlemagne.
Look, me and Charlemagne both did the interview.
He put on his channel, I put on my channel where they watch it at.
If it's not the breakfast club, they're not watching with Charlotte.
That's a fact.
I'm telling you how the truth.
I built a platform for 10, 15 years myself.
He built the breakfast club.
Perfect.
But this wasn't a breakfast club talk.
So when these guys tell you stuff about how the biggest rapper is moving,
you should tell them, well, Ebum, well, why are you not at Hot 97?
And why are you streaming from your car?
And why are you at Apple trying to use their budget for clipping to get your shit off the ground?
These guys are not ahead of the eight ball.
They shame anything that doesn't look familiar.
You know why?
Because one of the biggest words in the black community they love to use is corny.
Oh, that's corny.
All you doing a TikTok song is corny.
They called Tusi Slide Corny a decade ago.
It's one of his, by the way, he has the most diamond records of all rappers.
It's one of his diamond records.
You can't listen to these guys.
These guys talk in comfortability because they've never been a disruptor.
It's a reason why they talk about us.
It's a reason why they talk about Drake.
because they've never ever took a time to say,
you know when I was doing my videos,
people are like, why are you doing that?
Why don't you just do this?
Yo, it'll never be that big.
You're in your mama's house.
I'm not saying this is not that way nor anything,
but this was the overall conversation, people.
My point to you is this.
What Drake is doing,
he's doing something and he understands the internet
better than the guys who are actually criticizing him.
The guys who are criticized him lost their jobs.
the guys criticizing him
has to talk about him to make an income
he's still figuring out of weight
and he just gave away like $20 million
to a bunch of girls and doesn't
affect him at all. Why? Because he's up billions.
So who do you want to listen to?
The person who's saying, man,
I would have never thought Drake would be doing her 20v1.
Just remember
as time goes on
all of this shit changes.
You're going to either
maintain some frame and change with the times,
completely changed from the times,
or think you're bigger than the times,
and hope that nothing changes at all.
One thing I believe you could bank on
is that time will always change.
But don't listen to me.
You know, you could listen to the guys
who feel like it's corny
that Drake isn't dropping music
like how Jay-Z dropped
blueprint in 2001
and how, how,
he dropped, you know, black album in 2005, or how he dropped American gangster in 2007,
or how he dropped poop in three in 2009.
And because he's not doing it like that, because he understands how promotion is,
he understands the new way of influences, he understands radio doesn't matter,
so it's better he just go link up with Ben to Don, or he better he go link up with,
I Show Speed, or it better he go link up with Aidan Ross or him and Kai might do something,
because he pitched that way because he's keeping up with the times everybody calls it corny
oh it doesn't look good he's damn near 40 but watch this just like i said they said the same
thing to me 10 years ago and 10 years later you watch me on a list and they're all at the bottom
they're like uh how we watch the next five years okay all good um are we are we in the building
I read in the building, chat.
Oh, look at y'all.
Shout to my people at kick.
So, there's a lot of discourse that happened.
And I think my, that was a nice monologue, right?
Okay, that was a monologue.
We could go into playing what people said now.
Okay.
Good, W monologue?
And chat, I will tell y'all, ultimately, this is why you guys change my life, right?
because a lot of times they try to make me like the poster boy of this new media stuff or whatever.
And really, I get it.
You know, I do my thing and, you know, I'm getting some shit.
But it's because they've never seen an audience like y'all.
They've never seen the chat niggas.
They've never seen the chat niggas like that.
I remember when we were everyday struggle, this is why they wanted me to stop streaming.
They're like, oh, my God.
If we feel that we got some little finesse off or we didn't treat you,
you write and them chat niggas getting them comments section we're torched we're done for the day
they couldn't handle a chat when labels reached out and they're like oh my god we can't have the chat
go against us so i do want to just shout out to the audience and for any independent creator i use
myself as an example and i tell you don't listen to these guys because there was a time that i thought
going their route was the victory and look look at it now they're look they're all looking up to me
and by the way forbs y'all could have hollied at me if y'all really wanted to do you guys
to put a real list together,
but I guess I'm not a podcaster,
but if y'all wanted to put the list together,
y'all could have hollered at me,
but it's okay.
It's okay.
It's okay.
I like to keep all,
let me keep off the radar for a bit.
But it's all good.
Regardless, regardless,
and we should move on.
I didn't want to play a few things.
That is,
that was percolating in the air, right?
Now, before I do this,
I just want to remind y'all,
and I know you're going to,
some people are going to accuse me.
This is not a thing for me to defend Drake.
Please, like, just grow up a little bit bigger than that, too.
For the people who do like Drake in here,
I've said this on my gambler's stream, I'll say it again.
I know some people like,
you don't have to really, like,
defend every point that might have to do with Drake.
And I do want to let you know that there's a bigger thing here at play.
And every time I say that,
I think I'm either manic or some other shit,
or maybe that's just Charlam.
But there's a bigger thing at play.
Here's the thing I play.
the people that don't like Drake for him doing a 20V1
they don't like academics for doing media
why they use the same thing
man I think of corny he never got used to get bitches
yo this they say to say so there is no way
there's some people I'd be like man you could
nah you can get fried for that they don't like you either
remember that they're gonna be man Drake fans are soft
man it's never it's they don't like a group
of people because their mindset of how they view hip hop is one way.
They're not malleable.
I watch Glasses Malone do a whole interview with bootleg Kevin.
He literally said, what Drake does is not call hip hop.
He's gatekeeping.
He thinks he owns it.
It's like how Tariq and the She kind of acts like he owns blackness.
Oh, it's the FBI.
It's like, no, what Drake does is not hip hop.
And he's like desperately gripping on to this thing trying to be like,
Drake is not hip hop.
And it's kind of like pathetic.
Have you seen it?
I'll play it.
Here we go.
Bootleg Kev.
Glass is Malaw.
So for the people who be like, why do you also defend Drake?
You got to realize if you're a Drake fan or you understand the plight of Drake or whatever,
a lot of times there's some shared identity here, people.
It's not that they don't like Drake because Drake is doing fuck shit.
They don't like you.
Right?
A guy like this with a bucket hat, the Camel Bucket Hat from goddamn like, I don't know,
from California who banged Crip.
He feels he owns more of hip hop culture than you, or say me,
who I put in, like, fuck what he's done.
Glasses ain't got no impact on hip.
Nigger, I, if in the last 15 years,
what I've changed with mainstream hip hop,
I don't give a fuck about glasses like entire,
like his entire life, my nigga.
I've done more.
That's a fact.
I've had way more impact.
on the where the mainstream of hip-hop is going.
But for him, he owns hip-hop.
So he's like, nah, AC is just a guy.
He's just a guy.
You listen to this guy, he makes you feel like nothing.
But that's him grasping at straws
trying to have some type of, you know,
relevance and him trying to make people feel like
he could define what hip-hop is,
but it's always going to be narrowly in a way
where what you do is not what he does.
because if he compares himself to you,
at some point you've got to put points up on the board.
You know what Drake said back then in a very powerful,
I think it was a Grammy speech, right?
He said hip-hop is like a pointless sport.
No, not pointless, but he says it's something sport,
meaning that there isn't actual,
people don't go off the actual numbers.
People go off these other things.
And when that becomes the case, you get people like glasses who has zero numbers and accomplishments to put up, has zero things to be like, these are tangible things we should talk about.
He could use this.
Well, I'm from the culture.
I'm a Crip.
I do this.
I do that.
I got this nigga killed.
I like rapped about this.
I wrote on this song.
That's his contribution.
And when you're like, well, I push the biggest records.
the world. I help make this person a superstar.
I help change this city
and help this city become one of the
biggest cities in hip.
None of that matters because he's a Crip.
Because he's just using something that's
it's just
He's just using some random
stat or some random like, you know, value.
Anyway, let me tell I could get to it.
All this shit just went,
fucked him up, man. You know, it's interesting
because it's like, what made Drake
dope to me in the beginning was like
he was a relatable guy. He
just a normal, like, nerdy dude who could sing and rap, and he was cool.
He wasn't trying to be anybody.
He wasn't.
And then there was, like, the switch where it was, like, mob ties and, like, you know,
and it just, it's, ah, he's hanging out with a lot, brus, like, you know, and, like,
Lord, whole music industry is, like, off you now.
All these people that you helped, you know.
Okay.
Just saying how it naturally, because it's all driven off.
I fucked with this nigga girl.
I did this or this nigga.
I'm fucking this girl.
It's like, bro, if a man comes to your mind.
when you're fucking a lady,
that's a very homo erotic thought.
If that's,
I'm trying to find the part.
If that fuse your interest in a woman,
you know,
if who she slept would fuse your interest.
Like,
oh,
I'm going to add,
I'm going to be able to have that over it.
Yeah,
like,
oh,
I got futures baby mama.
Yeah.
Bro,
you're probably gay.
You know what I'm saying?
Not like,
it feels like a lot of the roots
of his issues
with other people that aren't
is homoerotic shit.
It also,
with a woman. I think that's what happened with Metro.
Sure, sure. But it's all, but that's
okay. Burden of culture. And so
again, it.
Dude each other in 2001?
Yeah. Okay. It'd have been crazy. I think we're going to get to it.
Yeah, yeah. So, but, and that's why I'm saying
it's a space for it.
Because it's just not, he don't have these expectations. He don't have
the burden of culture. And so, okay, I think he's
like, that's probably not a great. Okay. You lost a battle, bro.
You're going to be fine.
Strategic decision I've ever seen.
anyone ever make. And that's not even like music industry. That's just like, you know,
maybe Dennis Schrooter turning down his Lakers deal, you know, $80 million, doubling down on
this lawsuit shit and look at the world through. Because of Jay Z would have sued each other in 2001.
Yeah. It had been crazy. Yeah. So, but and that's what I'm saying. It's a space for it. Because it's just
not, he don't have these expectations. He don't have the burden of culture. And so again,
it's not a slack on his talent
his talent is phenomenal and he was always
going to be fine even after the battle I just hate that
the energy is like oh it was something
it's like bro you're fucking fantastic at this
only somebody who doesn't have the burden of
culture could go through with
doing that lawsuit and doubling down and being
fine and being fine
any of us
always the other line
glasses maloney you're lying
there's scandals that come out that would
kill certain artists that doesn't kill other artists
R. Kelly was seen on tape
fucking a 15 year old.
He was peeing on her.
That wasn't the burden of culture that got him
or he didn't have the burden of culture
so he got away with it.
He made great enough records.
Michael Jackson was accused of fucking sleeping
in the bed with little kids.
But he was such a great art.
When it comes to great artists,
yeah, you could maybe point out some fuck shit
culturally that people might not like,
but they get past it. That's a fact.
People get past the fuck shit
when you're that great of an artist.
It's not because, you know, they're trying to make this little, like, you know, false analogy like,
oh, no, it's because Drake's not hip-hop.
That's why he could sue, which, by the way, he never sued Kendrick.
He sued the label.
But whatever.
Oh, he could sue and get away with it.
No.
Drake is Drake.
And it's like, okay, let's bring up something that, you know, okay, let's say, you know,
they always say, oh, Drake got pissed on.
Let's say he did.
Okay, let's say, I don't know what happened.
I wasn't there, whatever.
Let's say he did.
Here's the thing.
If King Vaughn got pissed on,
yeah, King Von's career is done.
He got to go kill that Nick.
It's Drake.
I'm sorry to tell you,
but nothing kills Drake.
And that's the thing.
It's not about him being hip-hop or not.
It's about how great he is.
When someone's so great,
you do look past certain bullshit.
Whether it's true or not.
So I hate the fact they're trying to make it where,
oh, no,
is because he's not cultural.
No, we've seen people who aren't cultural
like basically go away for less.
We've seen like these non-black guys
kind of get into rap and then they get exposed
for like maybe saying the N-word
and people are off them afterwards.
No, you're not good.
You're not a guy.
I'm sorry.
We're not fucking with you.
So the idea to not acknowledge
that the reason why Drake could get away with anything,
potentially, is because he's that good.
It's the reason why maybe Tupac could
get away with having them photos in the fucking tub.
Is it probably one of the reasons why Mom Deep could get away with ballerina pictures?
There's a lot of things that is the reason why Rick Ross could get away with being exposed as a CEO.
It's a lot of things.
This is not about a hip-hop or not conversation.
The conversation is more likely surrounded, how good are you?
and that if the worst of the worst of the cultural people
view you as maybe an outsider
or view you as whatever,
could they oust you or do people all turn on you
because of that reason?
The thing is not about if you're hip-hop or not.
It's about how great you are.
What is your favorite Drake song of all time?
No, stop.
That's in my wheelhouse, man.
Because I've dealt with it.
I'm not sure if they're real
flock of Twitter accounts
that they got the OVO ass.
But they're like pop.
These motherfuckers are like psychos.
Okay.
They got the OVO owls and the six side shit in their bio.
Their entire pages are dedicated to another grown man.
You see the shit when they had the look-a-like party.
Yes.
Like these like, but they're like pop.
These motherfuckers are like psychos.
But you don't remember that's like Britney Spears, shit like that.
Like that never happened to hip-hop.
And ain't none of us dressed like no motherfucker.
See, and this is where the gatekeeper comes.
Oh, it never happened in hip-hop.
And this is why I hate, you know, when people say, oh, why do you object to them comparing him to Jay-Z?
Because Jay-Z was never comparing, was never really in comparison or competing with the pop star of his time.
Drake actually is.
Drake is actually credited with building Apple Music back in 2015 when he was the first artist to sign on.
Then the weekend came on.
He's credited with building an industry.
Jay is not.
This is why I hate when y'all compare Jay and Drake.
So when they're trying to do some hip-hop shit, be like,
no, well, the hip-hop of our time,
well, have you had a hip-hop artist that was this dominant?
For ice-keam.
I'll even go Michael Jackson.
Michael Jackson at one point was seen as R&B.
Until it became so popular, so prolific,
what he did, no matter if it was an R&B sound and song,
it became pop music.
But does it mean that it wasn't still R&B in nature?
Now, did he make pop music?
Of course, he made straight pop music.
But I could identify genres.
Like, we know when he was doing R&B.
Same like we knew when, we know when Drake is doing hip hop.
And they're now because Drake, they can't compete with Drake,
they want to box them out.
Let's create a new category without Drake that we could feel like we're doing something.
So Drake isn't hip hop no more.
Big is love ice cube.
I mean, there's been some like old school hip hop theme parties or people bust out like, you know.
No, not a high school, not a theme.
People say, I see a few people said, no, Drake is pop.
Drake has done pop music.
Okay, I'm glad you said that.
Let's look up Iceman, right?
Iceman track listed.
So we're looking up Iceman track.
You say he's pop.
Okay, so you're going to tell me that these are pop songs.
They have to be pop songs if you're saying he's just doing pop.
What I'm saying is that he makes every genre, right?
There's a Portuguese song, El Tito de El Tico, by some guys out of Brazil.
Drake hopped on, that is not hip hopped on.
that is not hip-hop, that's not pop,
that is like whatever that Brazilian song genre is.
He's done dance all.
He's done R&B.
He's done country.
He's done a lot of things.
He's done trap.
The idea of trying to label somebody pop,
yes, pop.
Has he done pop music?
Yes.
Like Hotline, Bling, I would say,
I'd give that to pop, honestly.
But is his entire energy pop?
No.
Make him cry.
Fire.
hip-hop
intro
dust to dust
that's a regular
hip-hop song these days
just melodic whatever
whatever same with whisper my name
Jan's shut the fuck up
same with that
this is more of an Atlanta
like you know
trap type of you know
I hate calling it trap now
because you know
trap is like really whatever
but it's related to Atlanta
you go down here
and you can't find
one
straight up record
that if we had heard it
in a vacuum we're like
that is pop
plot twist you're going to say
it's pop too hard for the
radio that sounds like a West Coast banger?
Are you going to say make him remember where he's literally just rapping bar to bar?
Are you kidding me?
Little Birdie that sounds like a Florida hit that needs Kodak on it?
Don't worry, which is clearly like more of like, you know, melodic, but it's not, it's, it's,
the tempo is too slow to be pop?
Firm friends, he's like literally just rapping this like some, is this conductor?
Yes, conductor.
Exactly.
Like, a con, so you're telling me, Conductor Williams is making pop music?
Make him know.
You're saying this is, come on.
So the reality is that I'm not going to say Drake is not a pop star.
But if you're saying he makes pop music consistently,
I would probably say he makes pop music 10% of the time.
10% of the time.
There's not one record on Iceman that's a pop song by how you sonically hear it.
Now, of course, if Janet shut the fuck up is on the charts for like, you know what I mean, 16 weeks,
you might be like, damn, it's moving like a pop song.
Why? Because he's incredibly popular.
But is it really and truly a pop song?
Could you see Bruno Mars doing that?
Could you see the weekend doing that?
Could you see Ed Sharon?
Could you see Post Malone doing that record?
No, you can't.
So pop for the people who don't like him, turns out to be,
you're just popular.
Not in the sense of the genre pop that usually deals with like top 40 BPMs and all that
type of stuff that people have colloquially call it's pop anyway let's keep listening no no you're
right but like a diehard clips fan would i pull up what would it be a clips party or would it be a
clips costume party no no no come on no no a complete look alike no no no no no no no i would go to
like a two thousand's era party and i would bust out an amyer push a tea and some like you know
bathing abd no i mean you have to you have to darken your skin no no no come on come yes so that's my man sam
sneak he shit and you know
Sam sneak don't
you know he you know I don't I'm trying
to shout him out but he's you know
one of DJs for Rosey
like he watches as I told Jesus chat nigger
shout to him he came to our Florida show
he chimed in he texted me to act I'm gonna be
honest with you when Biggie was out
and Pock just came
or when Pock came on a scene
people look at Pock as he wasn't
hip hop because of the melodies
because of all these other things they were
saying at the time that Pock wasn't
hip-hop. Like, at this moment in time, would you say Pac isn't hip-hop? That sounds ludicrous.
But at the time, based on those things, and right, and, you know, I'm going to go on, I'm
gonna go on his word. He says, when Pac came out, biggie niggis at the time did not fuck with
Pac, and they were saying Pac was not hip-hop. So again, like, this term of like what hip-hop is,
it's to box people out, if you ask me. Anyway.
Just say it or like you would go to a place like that. No, no, no, no. So it'd be weird.
I think his audience is
I think as the world has been like
Black life in America is being gentrified
Here's part of it was happening
So everybody's moving in on the space
But I probably was always going to be fine
I blocked 7,800 accounts just
Just off of just this beef
Yeah
I want to sit down with me because he know
I know what the fuck I'm cool
Okay now I'll play this real quick
So Glass and Malone starts speaking about me
Interesting
And yeah let's hear
To I mean he's he said some crazy shit
Well he's been by
act.
Demics have a conversation.
I don't mind somebody trying to humble me.
Could you and academics have a conversation in person that wouldn't result in violence?
Why in the fuck would I fight act?
I'm just curious.
Yeah.
But why would?
Well, he's been pretty disrespectful to who.
I think glasses talk to shit.
I taught my shit.
I don't ever say that, you know, I'm going to have some might slap glasses or something like that.
You know, we have different opinions and they're very strong on both sides.
What's the problem?
This is hip hop, ain't it?
This is not for them soft-ass niggas.
Like, this is for, you have your opinion,
it vehemently opposes mine,
and I have mine that vehemently opposes yours.
Doesn't mean we can't sit in the same room together, right?
I sat down with Charlemagne.
I didn't think I was going to convince Charlamagne of anything.
You know, it is what it is.
I mean, he said some crazy shit about everybody.
Yeah, but all them people are kicking.
Now, he ain't said shit fucked up a,
Listen, AC is in this really weird space because people call it journalism, but it's not.
It's more rooted in his opinion on what's happening in the news.
That's cap.
Right?
Like a new?
So here's the thing.
Two things can be true.
What he's saying is slightly true, but now all the way true.
If you asked me for my opinion on Kendrick Lamar and a song that he dropped or you
asked me for my opinion on YG and a song that he dropped, you're not asking me to be a
journalist.
So like the word journalists sometimes get misused.
and misnomer as a way to neutralize people's thoughts.
I have a strong opinion on every artist, on every situation.
It doesn't mean that I have never, or I don't, present facts in an unbiased way.
If you see me breaking down, we're going to do it with the KeeFED trial.
We're going to do it with the Dirk trial.
We have several trials that we're all going to get to, and I'm going to be presenting
information or either doing due diligence, research, pulling court documents.
That's what journalism is.
What these guys want is that they're used to the journalists that just ask questions and never gives their opinion.
Now, if I'm talking music, I have a lot of opinion because I'm a fan.
So I want to tell you your music sucks.
That song sucks.
I don't like that.
This is garbage.
I don't believe you.
That's going to happen as well.
Here's the problem with a lot of people of old media.
You're usually one of the others.
So back in the day, you used to have the journalist, he just reports, and then you have the color commentary guy who just gives his opinion on it.
Here's the thing. I'm an all in one. I don't need like 10 people.
Inside ESPN, inside hip hop. That's it. Or inside T&T, whatever it is, inside NBA, inside hip hop for me.
Okay? At one point, and we'll probably do it today. We got some stuff to present on a dirt trial.
I got to pull some documents. I'm going to read it through. That's being a, that's being a journalist.
Right? I'm sticking to the facts. I'm presenting the facts. I'm disseminating the facts.
Right. And then afterwards, I always give my opinion. Now, do the people have to write?
my opinion, but here's the problem.
They want to neutralize your opinion by saying, don't give an opinion.
Just present the facts and shut up.
Well, that's not going to be me.
Okay.
Again, you know, you know my new motto?
If I listen to y'all, I'd be still homeless, broke, and Owen Rutgers University 100,000.
Not listen to y'all.
Okay?
I keep telling you, even when Jay Cole said, I said, no, no.
I'm rewriting the new rules for media.
Jay Cole, you're barely in the game.
Go back to playing basketball.
The reality is, you don't have to be.
the person with no opinion like or or disguise your opinion in selective facts.
No, I'm just going to say what I feel.
But should I or could I be trusted if, am I not one of the most thorough I'm going to call
a journalist when I'm breaking down a case?
Have you ever heard on the Breakfast Club the level of detail that I went into in any of
these cases and we could name all of them?
Did you see the level of detail?
Whether it was Tori's case, whether it was, who else,
Yassel's case, did you ever see that on the Breakfast Club?
How are they journalists, but I'm not?
You ever see Lauren LaRosa like really break down a whole fucking indictment page by page,
have it on screen and actually go through it, explain what everything means,
put it out to the public?
No, you hear them talk about it for two minutes and they're the journalist.
Fuck out of here.
Their problem is that I have an opinion at the end of the day.
That's their problem.
That's your problem with me, Malagro, and a lot of other people, Armand Wiggins and a lot of other people that that's what we do.
We're going to go get the info.
We're going to go break it down on some journalistic shit.
But then we're going to use our own brains and not just go off whatever the public says.
And we're going to say, you know what, I think this is a bunch of bullshit.
Or you know what?
I actually do believe this.
And that's where they try disqualify us.
But I'm definitely not going to be ashamed in terms of what I do.
When he says, you know, how is he a journalist?
well, I dare you, you could put Nancy Dillon,
who's actually a journalist for Roland Stone,
you could put her breakdown in reporting of legal, criminal, or civil cases,
and my breakdowns, and then you say,
who's actually giving more info?
So how am I not a journalist?
Oh, because you're mad because I might start roasting you.
I might start roasting Kendrick.
I might say, oh, y'all niggies on the West Coast is flopping.
So that's, oh, that's not journalism.
That's my opinion.
You're damn right.
Oh, so y'all mad.
Oh, because I don't present info and shut up and go away, y'all mad?
No, nigger.
I'm going to cuss y'all out.
Ain't nobody's nice on his damn microphone and me.
I'm going to give y'all 70 points and I'm going to still break down an indictment.
We got some dirt motions to read today.
What's the problem?
I could be a journalist and I could pop my shit.
Same time.
You know who does that too?
Stephen A. Smith.
Stephen A. Smith got a show.
He's popping it.
And then he got another show where he's delivering.
His journalistic duties.
Again, this is why I keep telling Drake, ignore those people.
The people talking about you, they never had the balls to step out and do something that was not of the norm.
You wouldn't be the top rapper if you listen to them and I wouldn't be the top niggin media if I listen to them.
So I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing and you guys just keep following.
Yeah, it's an opinion-based show for sure.
Yes.
And I think the confusion is people think they, you know, they confuse.
inflated with somebody giving just, you know, like a news.
It's not news.
So if I break down, and this is the Glass is Malone,
and you can react to this on, whatever you react to this on.
So if I go back into, so why G?
Because, you know, you're all West Coast,
let's throw up the bloods, whatever.
Who gives a fuck?
So if I go into the deposition of
Draccio the rulers
bodyguard who did a deposition
in a civil case
and I use that to juxtapose to a
ongoing criminal trial
and I show similarities and I show where
maybe even the cops haven't even like done their due diligence
but I show the inconsistencies
is that not journalism or is that my opinion
that's not my fucking opinion my nigga
that's journalism
now my opinion might be
man YG ain't even kill the nigga
that's my opinion that's my opinion
But if I use what's out there and I'm putting together things to create a news story,
that's the definition of journalism, my guy.
And I wish you would know that.
But I'm telling y'all, you know, y'all niggas is gangbangers who this is like y'all ninth hustle.
Like y'all try to sell weed.
Nope.
Y'all try to be a hitman trying to kill niggas.
Nope.
Y'all try to like, you know, rob niggins.
Nope.
Y'all try to kick doors.
And nope.
This is y'all ninth hustle.
I don't expect y'all to get it.
Like, I'm sorry.
I don't care how smart glasses,
Glass is Malone.
Your first hustling life was being a gangbanger.
That's like me saying my best,
like, you know what my first hustle was?
Going to college.
Your first hustle was being a criminal.
I'm sorry to say,
I don't care what you think you say you're smart.
That's not the way, brother.
You finally have gone back over here.
Okay, finally you got back into some legal activities,
but we're not listening to you thinking
that you're like a boss.
You're not.
Fuck are you talking about?
You think I'm listening to a gang.
Your first hustle was getting your ass beat by a bunch of other niggins with blue rags.
Beat to a bloody pulp stomped out.
Elbow dropped all type of shit.
I dislocated your jaw that you could just throw up a sign in the hood.
Rob niggas steal from your own community, sell drugs, peddle bullshit.
And now that after maybe 40 years of,
of you being unsuccessful because none of that has gotten you anywhere.
I'm supposed to listen to you because now you're bringing your,
your mentality to actual podcast and music business?
Nigger, please.
A criminal can't tell me none.
A gangbanger, I'm sorry.
I got three Rutgers degrees that sit up on a fucking mantle that would tell me,
If you listen to a gangbanger who his whole college experience was getting his ass beat, I'm not rocking.
Sorry.
Oh, you're smart?
If that was the smartest thing you could have figured out in life at that point, I'm sorry.
I think we're a little bit different.
Yeah, I grew up in Jamaica, immigrated over here.
And you know what?
When I was 18, I didn't say, let me go get stomped out by the Crips up in Englewood, New Jersey.
That's the way to get.
That's your path.
So please, when we start talking about intelligence and shit like that,
the gangbangers who finally learned that the streets,
like y'all are all new to podcasting.
I'm 15 years in.
Y'all are new.
Y'all are like three years in.
Oh, yeah, we should stop like throwing up the red rags and the blue rags
and we should just start using the microphones, not the guns.
I'm glad you're done being dumb,
but we can't give you credit for being like genesis.
Please, just stop it.
These guys talk like they're scholars.
No, no one could, no one could fuck with me.
Brother, your idea of making it
was getting your ass fucking handed to you
by four tough looking crypt niggas
and then they threw a blue flag at you
and you walked around it for decades with nigger.
I'm sorry, that's not the fucking end-all be-all
in I am smart.
It's the fact.
That's the fact.
Anyway.
Shout to my gang members.
I'm just trying to say like,
I know, y'all not trying to claim,
this guy's trying to claim like he's 200 IQ.
He's trying to claim like, I'm like,
could we look at these guys' history?
Glasses Malone?
What is it, the decorated?
Like, even when he's acting like he's smart,
when he's talking about these issues with Drake,
like he's acting like Drake, he's acknowledging,
he's not.
He's like, if Drake ever try me like that,
I'll shoot his house up.
And I'm like, this is the,
type of guy you're thinking is intelligent.
The guy who will come online and say if that people tried him, he would just commit a crime.
You think these are the guys that mentally above the shoulders are really respected or feared?
Think about it, bro.
Matter of fact, let me go.
Well, let me play a little bit of this.
And I'll go back to the part where he actually says some of this crash out shit.
You're like, what?
No.
No, it's academics commentating on what's going to.
going on culturally through his perspective.
Through his lens.
So it's like I wouldn't really have no problem.
Like me and Act don't got, I don't got no problems with Act.
I agree.
The shit he said about my homeboy, they go, you know,
you can probably have to fight them about this shit.
Or you may don't.
I want to, who's his homeboys.
I said stuff about a lot of people.
Like, who's his homeboys?
His home boys.
Is he like?
But, like, I don't think me and him personally had no thing.
I don't think he would want to sit down with me
because he know, I know what the fuck I'm talking about.
Right.
Now, mostly...
No.
And, you know, without doing too much, and I get it, this is a little bit like a soliloquy again.
So, you know, I'll take it for what it is, but glasses.
Here's the thing.
We have different perspectives.
So here's out of the conversation.
The conversation with me and Charlemagne, I felt that we didn't come from that different of a background
where no matter what, his point could not be understood by me and my point could be understood by him.
The thing with you is that that's exactly how I think it would be, right?
The way how you see hip hop and the way you see culture, the way you see battling, the way
you see the West Coast, I don't see it like that.
So no matter if you are coming with eloquent, you know, arguments and you are putting
together logical statements, because my understanding and because of where I come from in
my purview of hip-hop doesn't align, we're going to just have a bunch of talking at each other
and then you're going to have people say, well, you know what?
Now, Glass is it good here?
Or people are like, man, now, he wasn't understanding what Act was saying.
Act was right.
So we're not going to get anywhere, right?
You know, you've made it clear that, you know, I try to speak with some of the West Coast guys before.
I think it's a Kendrick thing.
There isn't a need.
There isn't a desire to be like, you know what, let me understand.
It's more of this is West Coast.
Let me just hold down the coast.
Then let me just whatever.
So I do think it's futile.
Like I think it's futile for me to sit down with you because you're going to be peacocking for the West Coast and be like, nah, I got to.
Nah, you see, Ak, you see, where did you grow up at?
I grew up in New Jersey and Jamaica.
Well, you don't know the West Coast when niggis is outside when they say this and when they say that and when they throw up this.
Like, that's how it is.
And you know what I'm going to have to say?
Okay, so I just don't understand that Kendrick is from like this super blood block and this is how they get jealous when light skin niggas come shoot a video in their hood.
I don't know.
That's what's going to be.
So I kind of know that.
You know, like there's no middle ground with you guys.
The West Coast, I would tell people not to debate with the West Coast.
I try talking to AD.
I tried talking to, you know, the guys from the fake immunity.
I tried talking to even glasses.
I think I tried to even talk to DJ Head.
And at a point, go look at, look back at the DJ head conversation.
He basically said, listen, like, I'm not even here to, like, give any leeway or be like, oh, no, I get that.
I'm here to just represent the West Coast.
So you guys are doing it to me performatively.
And there's no conversation that needs to be had after that in terms of a debate.
You know, it's not like niggas is hating each other or whatever.
It just does it look like glasses maloney's.
wants to understand anything, he clearly boxes out and says what he does and what Kendrick
does is hip hop, but Drake isn't hip hop.
How are you going to convince that guy that Drake is hip hop?
When he feels he has some type of authority, he has some type of license, he could dictate
what is hip hop and is not?
How are you going to convince that guy?
Like, well, why sit down with him, right?
It's not like someone who's kind of malleable where it's like, you know what, all right,
I could see that, but you know, I didn't like this, what he did, and I didn't.
like that and no so so it comes to a point yeah i don't have a problem with glasses malone but
am i rushing to go sit down with him to have a podcast for what he's going to use it to create a clip
to send to kensik lamar that they could get kensik lamar and answer their phone calls we know that kensik
don't answer these niggins phone calls stack quo told us that the game can't get on the phone
with him the rest of them can get on the phone with him you should see this other guy he's been
dissing um he's been dissing uh um he's been disin uh um he's been
this in the game.
He just finally came out.
He's like,
he's like, yeah, blood.
What do he say?
He said, uh,
yeah, blood.
Wait,
am I spelling his name wrong?
Is it macwop with a K?
Bro,
I don't even know these things.
He's like, yeah, man.
He's like, yeah, blood.
Like, you know,
I just got called by top
to stop fucking with the game.
Like, something like that.
Like, some ridiculous things.
And it goes,
What's the show?
Like, these guys, you know, the LA gang mentality have poisoned so many minds over there.
Like, these guys get on camera readily bragging about who, like, their over boss or their overlord telling them what to talk about, what to do.
I don't even know if I can't find it.
I probably can't find it.
Yeah, I don't think I'll find it.
Yeah, I can't find it.
Anyway, the dude was like super happy.
Yo, you know what I mean?
I just got a call from Top Dog.
He told me to chill.
And I was like, damn, this guy's like,
this guy's like really excited about this, huh?
Let's see.
How do you say his name?
Is it MacWop?
No, is this MacWop, right?
Is it like this?
Oh, here.
Okay, here we go.
MacWop is hilarious.
He couldn't contain himself after getting a call from Top,
meaning Top Dog.
Telling him, White Flag is being waived
and to let up on the game.
the rap of the game. So basically they're saying the game is probably calling over there,
begging and bleeding and crying or whatever. And they're saying that the game is waving a white flag
so they should stop dissing on the game. Now, what's happened is that this guy, I think he manages
schoolboy Q. They have been going crazy on the game, basically calling them out of his name,
basically saying he's not like that, right? After they've exposed him for a couple of days,
apparently the game has called up, wave the white flag, and now top, top dog,
is telling the minions, including this guy,
stop dissing him.
Let's talk to my higher-ups.
The higher-ups told me to shut it up now, man,
so I got to be booed.
I got a call, homie.
I can't say too much.
So listen.
Got to let up on, yeah, I mean?
I got a call last night from my big dog,
straight up.
I'm going to just get to that.
BT, BT!
BT!
I got a call last night from my big dog because he got a call.
You know what I ain't?
They want me to start.
You know what I ain't?
So for now, I got her.
You know, I don't want to.
Even though I don't want to, I got to.
Okay.
So Top Dog calls, like, the podcaster division.
And he's like, yo, could you stop, you know, disrespecting the game?
We don't like him still, but just don't do it publicly anymore.
Okay.
Yeah.
I don't even know what to do.
I can't say too much
Putting people in the dirt
We're up in this thing though
So I'm booing right now
You feel me
Folks calling in
I mean
I can't say too much
So it
Could someone tell them the mic
Is this way?
It is what it is
So it is what it is
Yeah
I think it's calling in white flagged up
all that so I'm like for show blood I'm bold too you you still a goal I'm bull too so I gotta be quiet
so anyway though bad yeah I'm saying I'm gonna let all y'all know bad listen this is for anybody
if you play with the squad I'm on your bumper every time it'll matter who you is what you stand for
nika I'm on you I just can't control myself blood well only way I'm a
Stop being on people bumper as if you get top on the phone.
So if you get his boss on the phone, he'll stop.
You get Dodd on the phone.
You get Kendrick on the phone.
He'll stop.
Y'all can't even get Dot on the phone.
Then he's not bragging.
Remember, y'all niggas don't have his number.
Damn.
This is so sad that that's like a diss for the West Coast that nobody could get Kendrick on the phone.
No pun intended.
Hey, I don't get me.
Don't take that shot.
I can't say too much.
I ain't said nothing else.
I'll be all right.
Because I really love that Nick.
Okay.
All right.
Anyway.
All right.
All good.
All good.
Very, very interested, my people.
Okay.
Now, that is going on.
That is going on.
You know, you know what's hilarious to me?
I see everybody talking about this Drake 20V1.
It's a riveting story, right?
It's a riveting story.
I might have to go,
yo, my landscapers refuse to do a part of my land.
And I paid them a lot of money.
$30,000 a year, if you don't know.
Yes, that's how much you pay
when you live in the mansion for landscapers.
Is it 30 or 35?
One of them.
Anyway, the point is, they claim my dogs,
when my dogs are out,
They're like my dogs look so menacing about to kill them
They're like yo we're not we're not cutting the grass
We're not fucking trimming the edges
So I had to agree to them today
I told him I was gonna put the dogs in from a certain time
So the dogs won't be outside
But then they showed up late
So like there is big Pluto is outside
You know Pluto is on a shit
They did show up
But I'm trying to see if they're gonna ask me
To bring Pluto in
Because I get it
Pluto is pretty menacing
And I want him to clean up the edges and shit
So I might have to go upstairs in a second
Yeah
Let me go up for one second chat
Give me once
I'm gonna play this
I gotta go up for one second
I just gotta make sure
Because trust me
They haven't done it for four weeks
And if you've ever had like a property
With a lot of grass
Like it's been growing a lot
And I'm like
Dog I'm not gonna have y'all use the excuse
If my dog is intimidating y'all
So y'all can't do your fucking job
So give me one second.
I might have to bring them to the little away.
You want to say,
these people are not going to want to sit down with me
because I know what I care about it.
Like for them,
this is just like a hustle.
Like,
they just making money.
Yeah,
I think what made academics like endearing to the public on the Joe Budden show
was that he felt like he was like a fan.
And he is a fan of music who kind of got thrown on on camera.
I don't know if he's really a fan.
No,
no,
I'm not saying he's like a fan of like,
he's not like a hip hop head per se.
But I think like.
I don't even mean like a.
a hip-hop head.
I think, man, this shit, this tag is just Thursday.
No, but I think, like, when he first came in, he felt like, it was like, oh, they just,
they took this guy off the internet, and now he's in front of these rappers, which is why I
thought, like, if you think about that Migos moment, he was, like, genuinely, like, excited
to talk to the Migos.
Yeah, he forgot he just had talking shit.
And so it was like, you know, it was, it was, I, like, acts like initial run.
I was like, I fuck with dude.
Because he's just like, he's how any random, like, hip hop fan was...
Axe initial run was the Chicago shit.
Well, I mean, I mean when we public, when we saw him.
I wasn't, I was back then.
You were fucking with the Shirek shit.
I wasn't into that at all.
Okay, make no mistake.
Everything about this shit is fueled by street urban culture.
It's, it's take on Chicago Street Urban Coaching.
Like, things happening in that.
Flacco's success is happening because of his take on Los Angeles.
Angina Street.
And I thoroughly...
Okay, all right.
Big, um...
Okay, big, um...
Okay, big clues back in.
Oh, good.
So...
Let's see.
Oh, you know what I wanted to get into?
So, have you seen, like, these guys in hip-hop media?
Oh, it hurts her soul.
Ah.
They're forced to talk about the What's the Dirt video.
Did you guys watch it in full length?
We played it here, but have you watched it again?
It's so good.
You might have to watch it three or four times.
Shout to What's the Dirt, you know, one of our guys.
He did independent research.
He came up with all this stuff by his own due diligence.
And, you know, I did see it last second before he put it out.
But when I saw it, I was like, oh, this is masterful.
Now, we all seen what happened with this sit down with me in Charlemagne.
A lot of gaslighting, AI websites, clear puppeteer behavior, right?
you know, rock nation told him to do this.
He's, you know, he's on a mission.
And I'm not going to lie.
To be honest, if he got a raise up there, he deserves it.
But I'm starting to be proud of what independent hip-hop media is.
Because the Charlemains of the world who just comes with the BS and just like leaves it there
and moves on to the next topic.
Like, what is he talking about now?
Oh, I got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Okay, cute.
Oh, I got a new book drop.
Perfect.
All good.
But he could abandon his original talking point when the last couple weeks, like, that was the only thing people were talking about.
Why is he abandoning that talking point?
Because it can't hold water.
It's not standing up to the test of time.
And also, the thing is, you know, he did.
I give him a chest move.
He put me in a position where if I tripled down, I would prove his point without, like, full-on proof.
they would say damn act you're probably are manicure losing it
what I did was I say you know I'm I'm gonna fall back a bit
I'll leave it up to if hip hop media
and what I've done for hip hop media in terms of
being the person that did the most research
that went to go get the shit that that was me
2011 I remember I went to go get the the
the Bobby Schmurter indictment
I went to go get it was it 2011 or 2014
Give me more year.
Anyway.
I said hip-hop media is going to figure out that what I'm saying is not that much bullshit.
What's the Dirt Drops a great video.
Nobody wants to talk about it.
But I watch these guys talk about it now, and it kind of hurts them.
Every single one of them.
It hurts them.
It hurts them talking about the What's the Dirt video.
Have y'all seen this?
Look at this.
Look at this.
Now, they talked about Drake.
They talk about Drake mentioning Rock Names.
during his thing, but they now connected to the What's the Dirt video?
Check this out.
Following Wayno, we know Wayno, you know, Wayno is,
I used to be on music.
I thought about, and we mentioned this yesterday.
I mentioned first though what Drake responded and said,
but Wayneo talked about how.
Okay.
Be the person.
I don't know if I said that we're going.
You said it.
Hold on.
He's not lying.
Although I felt like, all right, he tried to show a little bit of personality.
That's just, that's easy because.
Okay.
Now, they're talking about everything but the what's the,
dirt thing.
I'm a comic book guy.
I think what he's going to be a 20V1,
you know?
So watch.
And I tried to watch it because I wanted to be able to like talk.
I got literally to the right before he brought in a goth batty girl.
And I was like, so six minutes on this, nothing on the Rock Nation thing, huh?
Interesting.
Interesting.
Nothing on it?
Okay.
Nothing on it.
Okay.
Anyway.
So the breakfast club has clearly no interest in talking about it.
Okay.
Let's hear what the,
let's hear with the breakfast.
No, no, let's hear with the Joe Bunn podcast
had to sit by.
Let's see.
They'll make me rush to this Drake 20B1, please.
Oh, well, I was going to ask you all.
Did y'all see what the dirt video that went up?
No.
I watched it.
I watched it.
So what the dirt, you know what the dirt is.
I do.
I do.
Put a video up, and it was kind of chronicalizing the,
the silent beef
between
Jay-Z slash Rock Nation and Drake
and Drake.
And it
if everything in this video
is true, and I say that because
there was like documents posted and stuff
and I can't verify it.
Nobody can authenticate the document.
You know what I'm saying? But what would the document
saying? One of the, so
one of the issues was
the class action lawsuit filed in, I want to say
Virginia against stake and all of them.
And he was saying like usually with a class action
lawsuit, it's a group of people. Like, they don't really have much of a connection other than they all
did this one thing. But he started breaking down, like, looking into who the individuals were,
and it's like, this person was dating this person. They lived in the same house here. They were
locked up together here. Like, there was a more connection that usually doesn't exist in a class action
lawsuit. Then he started connecting the lawyers behind it, which is the lawyers that were, had a tie to
the company that Rock Nation uses. There's a lot of behind the scenes dot connected that.
You know what I get from this and the academics and Charlemagne conversation, honestly,
is that our favorite artists and podcasters and media personalities are being
used as puppets in the fucking online
or real space gambling
worse. Oh, it took
this for you to put that together
parts. Thank you.
For years, man. That's what it's all... That's what it all balls.
Then they're weaponizing fan bases to pick aside when the ultimate goal is
we want to build a fucking casino in Times Square.
Who wants to build a casino?
You see, even
even Joe Bunn podcast won't just say the elephant in the room.
It's not they. Who wants
to build a casino? It's Jay-Z.
So, they're being elusive,
but
it feels like they're kind of getting it.
This one's a little different.
I mean, yeah.
This was a little different though.
It is something.
Like, as bigger businesses that play.
So I'm agreeing with you like.
These are just puppets that if we're going to get the biggest artists in the world
and we're using them for a promo.
Then, of course, it's going to drive audience.
But the parent companies are doing this against this parent company.
But in an effort to get there, we're going to demonize your chief promo kid.
You get what I'm saying?
And so that's where.
starts to get tricky because I think that
they are underestimating
some of the journalism that's going to go and take place
behind the scenes to find out who the real
puppet master. I'm glad you said that,
Ish, you might be the smartest one
in that podcast. Well,
I think Mark Lamont been going on there. He's trying to bully
y'all a little bit. But as I see, you still got that IQ.
I always liked you for your IQ. There it goes.
So while I've sat back to the Charlemagne thing,
because Charlemagne was sent out by Rock Nation to basically
say this is all bullshit.
Rock Nation doesn't think about no one.
Remember, that was the talking point.
Rock Nation doesn't think about
peons like me.
Doesn't even think about Drake.
Right?
Now people connect in the dots.
And this is just hip-hop independent media.
I'm watching a lot of you with new channels.
Some of these channels I've never even watched before.
But they've taken an investigatory
angle to say,
all right, you know, maybe Act was full of shit,
but the least we could do.
was digging to it and they're all coming up with shit.
So when it's all get compiled by what's the dirt,
ICE, who's an honest guy
from what I know, he's like, yeah, I'm a little shocked,
ish, honest guy from what I know.
He's like, yeah, I ain't gonna lie,
this guy looks a little spooky.
And that's the thing.
Remember, I told you, my job could only be to wake up the masses.
They started with the same, I was crazy.
Now everyone's like,
watch and learn
you know what I'm saying
and so when you start tying the dots together
it'd be like oh shit yeah oh shit
like I'm watching they put the clips up from the um
academic deposition yeah
it's a deposition about Meg's trial
yes and the questions are about Drake and steak
a bunch of them a bunch of questions like that
looks away this is before any lawsuits were filed
yeah it just looked like we dragged
you in here to question you about this because we really
got another plan over here it just all
looks away on paper like I said
it's a lot of it's hard to
refute some of this is true
that shit looks a little like
it almost looks like
act wasn't bugging.
Ha! Ha! Ha!
Oh! Oh!
Oh!
I'll let it keep going.
Or drink, yeah.
The problem is, even if a nigga ain't bugging,
it's really hard to throw rocks at the sun.
You can't throw it at all, meaning that you know what that
mean. Like, you can't go against an empire that the
niggas have built and shit like that as hard. So sometimes
you, you
look like the lone man on the island and these things are put in position to make you look bugged out.
So now with the new creators, what they're doing, all that's going to happen is that,
Shadda was a dirt, all that's going to happen is that. There's a lot of shit that come with that.
They flagged them the second the video went up.
You got to go in and change out some shit.
It's a lot of power at play.
And even though we deny it, some of us are in this entertainment field where you don't want to,
you know, you tip-y-toe around certain subjects because you know, there's a lot of ramifications behind it.
Yeah, absolutely.
Unless you have the money to play with them, unless you're in the best position,
Drake has the money and they have them, whatever they're doing, they can do it.
But the people that speak on it is really something.
It's really a campaign going around to silence people.
And I don't know.
I'm not a conspiracy theory.
So I don't believe in that.
I've just watched what's being presented to me.
I've just watched enough movies and TV shows and shit where you see like the cabal behind the scenes movies.
Like this looks like an instance of that.
It really does, bro.
I need to watch.
I know what you're fighting because we're, yeah.
I didn't watch.
I haven't seen it.
I don't got no dog in the fight.
You know an irony here?
Joe Button just announced that he's doing a true crime podcast.
Oh, man.
You know, everybody loves a true crime podcast.
Like, that's where you could take some of the biggest mysteries of the land.
Some of the, like, you know, really complex, you know, invisible hands that's behind the murders and behind the conspiracies and figure it out.
Maybe for an audience.
A whole exposal just came out that's kind of doing the same.
No interest.
I'm just literally reporting on something that I watched.
And I'm just like, wow, it was eye opening.
It does seem crazy.
I just personally, I'm not in that world.
So it doesn't really interest me that much?
Pardon my ignorance.
Go ahead.
What seems crazy about?
It seems crazy that if, let's take it off of this,
if two people are saying, yo, they're trying to get me,
they're trying to get me.
And things like, yo, anybody thinking about your dumb ass.
And then somebody goes and does some research and start seeing that,
yo, they really were trying to.
Well, maybe the, yo, this person over here claim this.
this person over here claim this, they don't know each other.
Oh, yes, they do.
They were roommates in college.
Hold the irony.
Remember when I told Charlemagne the God, I said, hey, listen, you know, people are outside my house for months.
It's more than just, you know, he said, well, you know, you know what comes with this.
You know, so, you talk a lot of shit, legal stuff, you know, you got to be prepared.
What I was communicating to him was that it borderlines on harassment.
I would love to hear of Charlemagne the God has to say about.
about his bestie Desire Perez who now claims she has a stalker.
I don't know why someone would be, uh, this is breaking news, y'all.
I don't know why someone would be, uh, you know, why would someone be, you know, outside
of her office?
Maybe that's similar to how someone was outside my house.
Somebody was outside of someone's house in,
Australia
But because now they're outside the house of
Or no, no, not the house, the workplace of Rock Nation CEO
Desiree Perez
Oh, it's news.
This is on NY Post, the New York Post.
Wow, let's read this.
A rap and stalker has threatened the Rock Nation CEO
and a lurk-laced social media screams
and confronted her in terrifying encounter outside the company's headquarters.
Oh, wow.
Did Desiree Perez know that there were terrifying people outside my house that I had,
listen, I walk around my property with a weapon on me.
I got 50 guns in here.
Did you know there was a terrifying encounter that I thought I had to blow a nigga head off his body?
No.
But now it appears that maybe the same thing is happening to Desiree Perez.
I don't know why it would be happening at all.
Desiree.
you finally understand what I was understanding.
You understand what maybe George was getting at.
Charlemagne, do you know who might be behind this?
Because you said you were going to find out.
Maybe you could find out and help me and Desiree.
You see Desiree looked like she's going through it too, huh?
Oh, wow.
Geez, I'll keep reading.
I'll represent her for Desiree Perez.
She's 56.
She founded the elite agency with Jay Z.
To police at the creep threatened her.
Oh, my God.
What type of,
The type of hooligan would do it.
You know what?
I believe,
Charlemagne,
this bitch is manic.
She's manic, she's losing.
Ain't nobody fucking outside of her office.
This bitch is losing it.
Let's keep it a being chat, right?
Isn't that what Charlemagne the guy was there?
Is she losing it or what?
Who the fuck would be outside of a pasty, old,
wrinkled,
former rat for the fed's office just sitting there.
Who would be,
who would do that?
The same, who the fuck?
would be outside of big axe crib just sitting there for three weeks in a white van trying to
allegedly serve a rot nation subpoena who would do that hmm interested deseret i want to make sure what
let me read it told the police that the creep threatened a business woman and it said you're
going to die this is clearly words from a manic individual shalomain get her on the
Get her to the psych ward.
Shorty is on.
Yo, she is tripping.
Ain't nobody outside the Rod Nation office trying to get at.
We're trying to get away from Rock Nation.
Stop it.
Charla, this one's manic.
This one is manic, Charla.
You see him?
This is manic.
She's manic.
There's nobody saying there you're going to die.
Who would kill you?
Listen, you snitched on the car.
tell Desiree, if they, if, if you were going to die, you'd have been dead.
Okay, you'd have been dead.
Nobody's threatening you.
Nobody's threatening you.
You got to stop lying.
Stop the manic shit.
You're losing it.
According to authorities, Desiree Perez is now barking at authorities claiming, they told me I was
going to die.
Let's pour up a shot, man.
I don't believe it is one bit.
Shala, you need to get her at one of your mental health conventions.
She's losing it.
Why would someone try to kill a former rat?
You're going to die.
He's seen according to sources.
The same menace had been targeting Perez with death threats outside the building
in multiple incidents since May.
Desiree, you know nobody's targeting you.
You know no one's doing that.
You're being manic.
Charlemagne, could you help her out?
Suggest to her one of the books.
My mind keeps playing tricks on me.
Anxiety.
Give her a book.
Give Desiree Perez a book.
Because put it like this.
At least when it was outside Big Axe Crip, I said, fuck it.
Tony Montana, nigga.
If they run up, we just got to do it.
I didn't call the cops and say,
they told me I'm going to die.
This is a manic shit right here.
Charlotte,
because somebody sent this to Charlotte me?
She's bad shit crazy.
Maybe she deserves donkey of the day.
Maybe not Ray Daniels.
We'll get into that.
It was not immediately clear how many people
were there in threats were made.
Sources said the threats were made through social media
and also music lyrics.
Who would do such a thing?
Why would someone rap a lot, Desiree Perez?
The suspect has been, okay, they identify.
Oh, he's a homeless guy.
It's a homeless guy.
Come on, don't kick this thing out of the public housing shit.
She's known around Manhattan and the Bronx.
She was a key part of Rock Nation collaboration in the NFL.
She's worked with the music industry, including, okay, Megastalian, okay, I know that's not the Rock Nation offices.
That's not the engines to their, why would the New York Post put that up?
Yo, I know Shorty's a little bit manic,
but why did you put up the entrance she goes in every day?
Listen, I don't, I want to put this on the record.
I don't support the bullying, the harassment.
Yo, give me my anxiety pill.
Could you give me, I got it from the shit that y'all bought at the Charlema's Symposium.
Give me that shit.
I need that.
I don't support bullying, harassment.
of George, of Livingston Allen, of Milagall Cooper, and certainly not of Desiree Perez.
I don't support that. I don't support none of that. None of that shit. Damn. Be a mighty shame.
It's a homeless nigga, huh? I wonder how that homeless nigga got the internet. If he homeless, how he know what's...
I don't know.
Desire, we love you.
And, you know, despite you being a decorated rat,
I will say you and Jay-Z's partnership, we have loved.
And I just want to let you know as part of somebody who's within the media,
you know, black business conglomerate.
I am excited and hope that you continue your business
and you continue to put all these criminals away
that you've previously cooperated on.
And I don't know, maybe future will be.
Okay.
Other than that, you know, if you do believe,
someone's out to get you.
You have a budget of a hundred million out of your disposal.
I mean, I know you're using a sizable amount maybe to get rid of Larry Jackson, but
maybe you could invest in some security or like a back door where you can walk out and not
like see the crazy guy who claims he wants to do some stuff to you.
I don't know.
Genuine, I really don't know.
I don't know.
Don't know.
But imagine if everyone could just call the cops when they're getting swatted.
They're getting when the,
they're getting harassed and interested.
We love Deserate, man.
We love Desiree.
Oh, she was an executive producer.
And she got an Emmy.
Oh, my God.
Oh, Rock Nation didn't respond to this request for a comment.
I wonder why.
Chat.
Uh-oh.
Let's tell me, Rod Nation trying to hit me with the cyborgs.
It says, it says, I'm getting, I'm getting dassed.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Let's bring it back in.
Anyway,
so Rock Nation did not immediately respond for comment.
I wonder why.
Here's the irony chat.
You want to see the irony?
I think it's off their feet at this time.
They won't respond to supposedly a stalker getting at them, right?
Getting at their CEO.
Well, you know what Rock Nation had time to respond to?
You know what they had time to respond to?
They had time to respond to.
to a story by Atlanta podcaster Ray Daniels where he said he heard some rumblins that Jay-Z's album
was done. So now they put out a statement to that album done. No, no, that's fake news. Let's hear
this, let's hear the rumor or the statement from Ray Daniels. By the way, you know, just for people
to know, I don't know Ray Daniels like that. We've communicated publicly. We have not communicated
privately. We've done nothing that would be in the realm of us communicating privately. And he's a
separate entity from me. Actually, we probably have some things to discuss because he's a staunch
defender of Atlanta. And recently, I haven't had the greatest of outlooks on Atlanta. So just to let
you know, if you wanted to know a conflict of interest, me and Ray Daniels have none. Anyway,
Ray Daniels have reported this. Check this out.
Hey, something that I know I heard about on the Jay-Z tip. A little quick update. His album is done.
Okay.
It's completely done.
It's just we might get it
if somebody partners with him.
If nobody partners with him, it's not coming.
Wow.
Hey, he's not playing about it,
but you cannot play about your brand.
You said this like a month ago.
Yeah, you can't.
Somebody called and confirmed it from me,
so I was like, okay, I just want to reveal it on the team.
He's not gonna have.
You heard it here first.
He heard it here first.
Let's go.
Does first week sales at this point even matter?
I don't think so.
It only matters to the industry
and the people that want to laugh at you.
The industry matters. That's the only time. It's just, it's nothing.
Because back in the day, if you didn't sell a certain amount, you was dropped immediately.
Nick, you was dating. If you didn't ask your phone.
Hell no. If you didn't do 100,000, you were done.
That was the magic number. That was the major number.
You had to be big. It was either you, oh, bigger than 100,000 first week, or you smaller.
It was two ways of misery. Yep, that was it.
Hey, something that I know I heard about on the Jay Z tip, just a little quick update.
His album is done.
Okay.
It's completely done. It's just we might get it.
If somebody partners with him.
If nobody partners with him.
Now, this is a rumor that he said he heard.
And I've never seen a rumor so people be so mad at a rumor.
By the way, I'll throw a couple rumors into the mix.
You want to hear some rumors that I never heard people that mad at.
Now, granted, I'm going to give it, like, about 75% of this rumor was true,
but there was something that was false from the get-go.
Everybody knew it.
Everybody who knew the guy or could act directly knew that that was false.
But this was also a rumor.
As I said, he did get 75% right, but 25% was blatantly wrong.
I played here.
Here's a rumor.
The thing about future.
Screamers going to be busy this week, though.
I heard they all flying down.
Oh, because Iceman.
Drake is flying all the lot of the screamers out to be with him for his release.
He's going to be flying.
He was going to do it for the DJs and the streamers out there.
Oh, really?
Scream is going to be pre-taped.
It's going to be at the C.N. Tower, but it's going to be pre-taped.
Oh, really?
Well, he was at the C-N Tower over the weekend.
There was video that people believed was him in the time.
Hold on.
We'll see.
All right.
He tries to say so positive.
I want you all to know that.
Callet?
Yes.
Yep.
He tries to say so positive and at work and working out.
Well, Cali, you might have wanted to keep some of that weight on, man.
Because, you know, that's what I was told.
He's getting direct shots on the album.
Do you got any shots coming your way?
I have no idea.
We'll see.
All right.
That's the latest.
And Carol G's on the album as well.
Carol G's on the album.
Did I hear a different Iceman than me?
Carol G.
Did anyone hear?
Did anyone hear Carol G on Iceman?
Anybody?
Could this be a rumor that didn't get confirmed?
Could maybe the info you have?
not bear out to be true.
Hold on.
This is the Iceman rumors, chat.
Let's get to it.
And Carol G's on the album as well.
Carol G. was on Iceman.
Oh, really?
Well, the album came out.
I'll be honest.
About 70% of what Charlotte said was accurate.
Yes, Future was on it.
You know, Rocky did get shots,
but he's getting shots like every single time Drake raps.
and Calla did get some shots.
But, and yes, future was on it.
But Carol G was not on Iceman.
Not on the BT.
Not on made of honor.
So technically, part of this report was incorrect.
Technically.
Technically, this was not the truth.
But it's okay.
We all have sources.
They might tell us things.
Things might change.
You know, things change left them right.
don't know. Listen, I noticed to be a fact, Cardi called me right before he dropped music. He played me a
song with X. He played me a song with Bieber. None of those are on the album. It is what it is. I did say
they could be on the album, but when he did play me, he's like, yo, trying to get this on the
album. Whatever. Obviously, some people felt away because they really thought it was going to be on the
album. I didn't know what the artist is going to pick. It is what it is. Now, I say that to say, you know,
I take people in their sources very seriously, especially when I take those people seriously.
I take Charlemagne seriously.
So Charmaine is saying that Carol G was going to be on the album.
Well, she wasn't, but if you look now, they did drop us on together.
So whatever how that happened of her not ended up on an album, I'm not going to call Charlotte a liar.
Well, maybe I'm the only one that takes that approach.
We just heard someone who's been in the industry.
honest, I know him more for being in the industry than him being a podcaster, but Ray Daniels came
out and said he heard that Jay Z's album is done. Now, keep in mind, remember, things change,
whatever, whatever. Not everyone gets everything correct. Charlotte got it partially incorrect.
Carole G was not on Iceman. I got it partially incorrect when it came to Cardi, and I know Cardi.
Bieber, the song with Bieber and the song of X didn't end up on it. Cool.
but this announcement by Ray Daniels
of what he heard behind the scenes
got people really upset
okay it's it's something that I know I heard about
on the Jay Z tip just a little quick update
his album is done okay
it's completely done it's just we might get it
if somebody partners with him if nobody partners with him
it's not coming wow
Hey, he's not playing about it, but you cannot play about your brand.
You said this like a month ago.
Yeah, you can't.
Somebody called and confirmed it from me.
So I was like, okay, I just want to reveal it on the team.
He's not going to have.
You heard it here first.
He heard it here first.
Okay.
Now, after you said that, yes, Rod Nation did say fake news, but of course, you know,
a lot of times artists will even deny what is the inevitable because they're not down to
release the press release themselves at that time.
Nevertheless, it was interesting.
when I seen Charlemagne give Ray Daniels the donkey of the day
claiming he blatantly lied and made a false claim against Jay-Z.
Keep in mind, technically Charlemagne made a false claim against Drake.
I've made a false claim technically against Cardi
and Ray Daniels technically made a false claim allegedly against Jay-Z.
But it now rises to the level of,
for you Daniels you're the donkey of the fucking day oh wow let's hear this yesterday ray
daniels got it really wrong see he was on his podcast uh ray daniels presents i believe it's called
and he said definitively okay without a shout over doubt that jzy had a new album coming out let's
listen you're a reputation at all cost we have to learn from hove hove is not going to put himself
out there to be laughed at it's just i'm not doing 60 000 y'all by the way i'll tell you
something that I know I heard about on the Jay-Z tip.
A little quick update.
His album is done.
Okay.
It's completely done.
It's just we might get it if somebody partners with him.
If nobody partners with him, it's not coming.
Hey, he is not playing about his, you cannot play about your brand.
You said this like a month ago.
Somebody called and confirmed it from me, so I was like, okay, I just want to reveal it on the team.
You heard it here first.
He heard it here first.
Let's go.
Well, you need to block that somebody, Ray.
Okay, because Rock Nation, who I work for, allegedly,
replied to that commentary by posting.
in their story, album done, in air quotes, fake news.
Okay, there is a part of me that wishes Rock Nation didn't even do that.
Because in a lot of ways, things like that are validation for the Ray Daniels of the world.
And that's really why I'm doing this donkey this morning.
See, nobody cares about having a voice that has actual value.
People only care about going viral by any means.
Okay, I know Ray is loving this attention.
Okay.
This is what these guys do this for.
They don't care about being right.
They don't care about having credibility.
They just care about attention.
They just care about being.
Damn, who's these guys?
Damn, Ray, you're at the bottom of the totem pole like that.
You're part of these guys.
Acknowledged.
But I'm here to tell you, that's not sustainable.
Okay, you know, Ray told me once himself.
I only met Ray once in my life.
I think I talked to him twice, once on the phone,
and I met him because he was at the Black Effect podcast festival
earlier this year in Atlanta.
And he said to me that he only started
podcasting and he only says the things that he says because he wants another job in the music
industry. I don't even know what that means, okay, because I thought he was in the music industry
already, but he said to me saying the things he says gets him attention from these music industry
folks, I guess he's trying to work with. Well, Ray, when you get things so wrong consistently,
all you do is show people exactly why you don't have a job in the music industry. Okay, you call
yourself a cultural referee. Well, when a sports referee consistently makes incorrect calls,
major professional leagues and amateur organizations, use internal gradings to hold them accountable
and poor grades directly lower in officials ranking within their league. Oh, your ranking's
pretty low right now, Ray. Okay, look, I don't know what your grade is amongst people who don't
know any better. Okay, the regular everyday person who gets on YouTube and listens to you might
swear by you because they don't know any better. But to someone like you,
me, you get an F at your worst, a C plus at your best.
Well, actually a C minus. A C minus at your best. Okay, because majority of the time I listen to you,
I think to myself, is there anyone on planet Earth who knows less about what's going on
in the music and podcasting business than Ray Daniels? Just my opinion, Ray. Okay, and I know you
think I work for Rock Nation. Okay, I've heard your commentary on it. So you're going to try to
say Rock Nation paid me to say this, but this is just all my opinion. Okay. Here's a pro tip.
All right. Instead of saying matter-of-factly, Jay,
the crazy album is done.
How about say someone told you?
Oh, you don't know if this is true or not,
but this is what-
I mean, he literally said, I heard.
He said, I heard.
You heard, okay?
Wait, what the fuck?
Give me one second.
He just wanted to reveal it on the team.
You heard it here first.
He heard it here first, let's go.
Well, you need to block that somebody, Ray, okay?
Because Rock Nation, who I work for, allegedly,
replied to that commentary by posting in their story,
album done.
in air quotes, fake news.
Okay, there is a part of me that wishes Rock Nation didn't even do that.
Because in a lot of ways, things like that are validation for the Ray Daniels of the world.
And that's really why I'm doing this donkey this morning.
See, nobody cares about having a voice that has actual value.
People only care about going viral by any means.
Okay, I know Ray is loving this attention.
Okay, this is what these guys do this for.
They don't care about being right.
They don't care about having it.
credibility. They just care about
attention. They just care about being acknowledged.
But I'm here to tell you,
that's not sustainable. Okay?
Swatted, chat. Swatted. I'm sorry.
Oh, my God.
We enjoy Flacco's YouTube channel.
Which I've told him multiple times
it's irresponsible. Like this lie telling
about mustard. That's a bad lie.
I'll watch him like
tear down like Chud the builder and like
I don't watch the hip hop
shit because I kind of like, sure.
I kind of know that him and I are not aligned
And it's not alignment because
Like he's a gifted
Storyteller
Very good at that
Like, AC is a gifted
Like orator
Like he can dictate
And narrate exactly what he's watching
And his voice
Certain things that I know
That works for him
Whatever you want to say about AC
He is a gifted communicator
And there's something that resonates
With the public
And with Flock Flock is a gifted
storyteller
100%.
But the problem is
Both of them will fucking lie
And that's where it can be
dangerous because you're in it like right now the shit flaco is doing with mustard that's irresponsible
like you you you can say that saying that mustard bailed someone out right yes over a murder okay
this people got friends homies you could put this man life in danger that shit is irresponsible
and that's what the burden of culture would prevent you from talking about yes yeah so this is
goes back to that same conversation, the burden of, they don't have the burden of culture.
They will, they don't have the burden of none of this shit.
They, I could be like, man, Trump, da, da, da, he don't give fuck how knickers feel.
Flacco don't give a fuck how they don't, it's not, they don't have the burden of culture.
The thing that makes hip hop, hip hop is the burden of culture.
Like, that's the thing.
You know what I'm saying?
And even further in their space for, you know, how they see the world.
So, but I think this, again.
in street urban culture is the gift that keeps on giving.
And this is why we have them.
But no, I don't, I wouldn't, there's no reason for me to fight academics.
Like, well, I feel like there was just like this funny thing where it was like,
everybody kind of chose sides in this thing, right?
And then it automatically like made people who like, you know,
I think about like even like, I remember at the beginning of the battle, DJ head and academics
had a constructive conversation on academic stream.
And I was like, oh, that was dope.
Head is head.
So you're not gonna, you know, win that.
But it was a constructive conversation.
And then it turned into disrespect somewhere.
Sure.
On one side, obviously.
Sure.
And I'm like, all right, well, and then, you know,
and even like, even like Maul, like, Maul, somebody who,
you know, I fuck with Rory and Maul's podcast a lot.
but like some of his like it just became like okay like it's almost like you know when we watch
CNN or Fox there's these two different truths that people like exist in depending on what
channel you watch and it felt like that was some of the some of some of the commentators in this
battle it was like y'all are just not being genuine like you're being disingenuous because of your
relationship or your ties or your fandom to whichever side right and I felt like on the drake side
It was like there were so many guys who were just like, okay, like, look easy.
It's Kanye in terms of quality.
I always feel like, man, we need to talk about this.
I always feel like Kanye first half of his career is overrated.
The second half is really where you get Kanye.
You're tripping.
Man.
I got U.S.
is high in my life of Pablo.
Yeah.
Like the year.
EP like that's my favorite Kanye
project. Yay? Is that him? I mean, I think
Ghost Town is one of the greatest songs.
Okay, okay.
A little sigh up,
sent by the ops.
Got to respect it.
You can't clown Desiree Perez
for getting a stalker and not
expect the police to show up to think
that you shot 10 people in the crib.
So it is what it is.
I'm back. Chat, it's, you know,
nasty warfare, you know?
It's a little nasty warfare. Don't you worry.
Don't you worry.
They were cool, though.
I'll be honest.
I don't want to give nobody no ideas.
This is the first time I got swatted
and I wasn't putting cuffs and throwing in the back of a car.
So, you know, I think they kind of know.
They claim they call me a couple times, you know.
I'm going to follow up with them and, you know,
we had to, you know, people try to swap me like every day
or every other day.
Well, whenever I'm streaming.
And me and my police department had like a really good relationship.
They claimed that they switched to some news.
shit but I'll
holl at them to try to make sure
that's not a thing or try
as much as you can because you know
when they get a call saying
yo there's like five niggas shot up
in the crib like you know
they got multiple calls actually
one of the calls was um
while I was outside
they were like oh we just got another call about the shooting
so I don't know I wonder who that
call was from
oh boy
I wonder what that was from
I went live on IG, you know, in case anyone thinks that, you know, these days with people saying everybody's manic, I know, no, he staged that.
It's all good.
It's all good.
It's a dirty game, chat.
It's a very, very dirty, dirty game.
I'm laughing, but it's not, you know, it's not humorous.
There was a young woman actually upstairs and, like, she's traumatized.
That's why I had to step off camera.
She's like super traumatized.
Like they fucking put her in cuffs through on the ground type of shit.
They don't know who she is, right?
They know me from me living here for a while, but or at least some of them know me.
But they get a call.
They're like just trying to secure shit.
She's obviously traumatized.
I don't know if she's ever been cuffs.
Like it's.
So I feel bad, but so I say I try to keep my house like a war zone.
You know what I mean?
Like I kind of, I feel bad that she's even here for this.
because now it's like burned in our memory that
I fucking got putting cuffs at axe play
so yeah I was trying to apologize sir for that
it's all good
they do it to me they do it to Nikki
they do it to you know it is what it is man
like you're not having a good day
until you got a couple AR 15s pointed at you
you're not having a good day so then
okay uh you know
nevertheless that was to throw us off track
we still have things to discuss
and unfortunately for those people
I don't plan on switching up the agenda
even still
again I do want to also think my
local police department
trust me I know they came through
whatever they didn't really even kick
down this door right
well obviously they can't kick my
well I guess they could kick the door now
but they were like knocking
there was a shouting heavy
but
But yeah, they didn't come on
this camera with guns.
You didn't see no guns or anything, right?
I turned on the light in here and, you know,
they had to make sure the room was clear, but
they figured I was on live stream.
Yeah.
Yeah, damn.
Does everybody go through this?
You can't sue the police.
They, you know, they got,
I think the calls are coming like maybe possibly
international.
Like they have ways on how they
they make SWAT calls, right?
So they're like, hey, there's a shooting that just started at this residence.
They have to respond.
Now, my police department said they try to reach out,
but they must have a different number for me recently.
But anyway, you can't blame the police department for responding to a potential shooting.
They don't know what's a SWAT.
They don't know if I'm streaming.
They don't know whatever.
They know me, but they just, you know, they still got to take precaution.
They also, when they pull my address up, it says that, you know, this local precinct authorized me to have 50 guns.
So it's like they know there's hell of weapons in the house.
They got to come through with the ARs.
They got to go try to, you know, check the house.
And last time the chief of police came out and or like the head guide at the police station, I guess.
I don't know if he's chief of police.
And he was like, he apologized because I ain't going on a lot.
They threw my ass in cuffs.
They just threw me in the back on some neon shit.
Like, they get the fucking back.
And at that point, you know, they cleared the house and they realized that it was a fake call.
And then they were like, hey, we apologize.
You know, we clearly don't get a lot of swatting calls where a very small town.
No one really calls in that type of stuff.
We clearly know you have an audience.
We should work with you that we could try to mitigate these things that people aren't doing this all the time.
and that was about like six, seven months ago.
I was on video when that happened.
But, yeah, it's okay.
I feel incredibly bad for the young woman who's here.
Yeah.
She's like distraught, I'm not a lie.
She's crying and stuff like that.
That's why I stepped off camera again.
At this point, I'm like, I'm used to it.
I'm a streamer, so I'm like,
Swatting.
Okay.
All right.
Let's go.
Let's do our thing.
Let's come back.
But not everybody's used to being...
Get down.
Handcuffs.
That's not a...
It's not fun.
Honestly, right?
Clearly.
And also, I have a shit ton of dogs.
And a lot of times, they might be out in the house.
I don't want the police trying to clear my house and fucking...
Yo, you shoot Pluto like, show, we've got to crash out.
Like, yo.
You know what I mean?
I can't have the white shadow once kill my dogs.
You know what I mean?
My dogs is my dogs.
Anyway, all right.
You know for that.
Nevertheless, I'm going to continue the stream.
Y'all tell me, should I continue the stream?
A little part of me, I feel like she's looking at me like an asshole.
Like, yo, bro, you're going to still stream.
I'm like, hey, I kept the stream on while this happened.
I'm like, I can't just, like, leave.
And I was just telling her, I'm like, I'll send you to a hotel if you need to go to a hotel.
I get it.
I told her, like, when you live in my house, this is Alcatraz.
Like a nigga might break in.
Like, so I got all these dogs, whatever.
You might get swatted.
So I hope I'm not like being an asshole,
not like tending to her feelings.
Yeah.
Yeah, the first time you're in Cups is definitely a little bit like,
especially when you know you ain't did nothing.
Just give me a second.
But, okay.
Just give me one second.
I got like, to my shit.
It's one of the greatest songs ever.
Oh, my God.
And to me, that to me is like a.
That's where yay is yay.
All that other shit from them early records.
them is just his renditions of
I mean I don't
listen I think that's like saying
you know
doggy style is
you know
and the blue carpet treatment
we'd be like well
they're very different
phases of Snoop's life
and both very great
but for me the production part of it
is the conversation
I love the production
not him as an MC
right because him as an MC
is an evolution of man but
my beautiful dark twisted fantasy
is the greatest album ever
Really?
Outside of Snoop.
But I think if you were to take,
it's almost like I always say
I'm a LeBron guy.
But to me, if someone says that Jordan's the goat,
I can't argue with that.
And if I was a Jordan guy,
if someone told me LeBron was the goat,
I couldn't argue with it.
Probably could.
Hater.
Anyway.
I don't know if it's a hater.
Okay, let's not get into the fucking LeBron Jordan.
But I think if like,
I think the Kanye, my beautiful,
dark twisted fantasy,
is the album that if someone
was like, this is the greatest album ever.
It's perfect.
I can't say nothing.
Really?
I can't say nothing.
What's the,
what's the join on there you skipped?
That shit is impeccable.
You know, that's all, that's all, like, subjective.
What I will say is by that time,
he started to figure out who he was as a producer.
And that's what I appreciate.
Right.
Like, my favorite yay albums go,
Yay, Pablo, Yeezus,
Dark Twist and Fantasy.
Oh, you're like, yeah, I mean, listen,
I love Jesus, man.
And then Pablo's.
St. Pablo at the end.
As a producer, he starts defining himself.
Like, listening to college dropout, you know,
um,
late registration.
Late registration, graduation.
Graduation started kind of just moving into a popier space,
but I think fundamentally it was,
I heard what he was doing before and I thought he did it well
to where I can accept it.
But when he started gambling,
you know what I mean?
That's when I really,
I get what you mean by that.
My personal favorite,
because like,
I think there's like,
funny you said ghost town that is my shit my favorite song on that album and I think it's it's in
the contention for best yay song ever yeah but I think like my favorite Kanye album is different than
what I think is the best my favorite is late registration but then like in that convozy at
this is up there my favorite nz versus on late registration we major shots of noss man but um yeah
so uh I think his first half is a bit overrated but I get it that's what everybody can
connect to. Like, people don't like to gamble.
Yeah. But man, to me, like later in his career, when he started gambling with sounds and like
5.30 even off one of the last projects. And, I mean, I also love bully, by the way. Bullies fire.
I haven't really been listening, but I heard 530. Yeah. And I mean, yay and Pablo like the
ultralight beam, like that style of production to me is yay. That's where like I got. All right. Okay,
Okay, cool. Perfect.
All right.
I definitely forgot my train of thought,
but I know we were flowing.
We're definitely in a flow state real quick.
Could you guys remind me?
Open up the chat.
You guys remind me.
What was I talking about the last thing before?
The police came to break up the party.
What was I talking about?
Oh, okay.
So I think I was talking about
So Ray Daniels, who made a, you know, he gave a tip.
Well, he said what he heard.
He said, you, I heard Jay Z's albums done.
Everyone's upset at him.
Now, we've all kind of given what we've heard before,
and sometimes hasn't been true or all the way true, right?
Like, you know, shit, Cardi played me the album.
I told you, I felt like some people was on it based on what he played.
It didn't end up being on it.
It could be for sampling reason, clearance reasons, just artist choice, whatever.
But clearly people knew enough, like,
you know he knew what was up right maybe i didn't get everything right but that's the point of
like having a source sometimes especially when these artists don't talk charlemagne kind of got like
70% right of the the iceman uh release right no one like nitpick like oh you lied about the carol g
thing now they're kind of like just jumping on ray daniels like he's a fucking liar like
he just randomly made this up and that becomes a problem right so charlemagne gave him donkey
the day and I don't know where I landed with him doing it, but let me get back to playing
him giving Ray Daniels don't care the day.
Yesterday, Ray Daniels got it really wrong.
See, he was on his podcast.
Ray Daniels presents, I believe it's called, and he said definitively, okay, without a
shout over doubt that Jay-Z had a new album coming out.
Let's listen.
You're a reputation at all cost.
We have to learn from Hove.
Hove is not going to put himself out there to be laughed at.
It's just, I'm not doing 60,000, y'all.
By the way, tell you something that I know I heard about on the Jay-Z tip, just a little quick update.
His album is done.
Okay.
It's completely done.
It's just we might get it if somebody partners with him.
If nobody partners with him, it's not coming.
Hey, he is not playing about his, you cannot play about your brand.
You said this like a month ago.
Yeah, you can't.
Somebody called and confirmed it from me, so I was like, okay, I just want to reveal it on the team.
You heard it here first.
He heard it here first.
Let's go.
Well, you need to block that somebody, Ray, okay?
Because Rock Nation, who I work for, allegedly, replied to that comment to that.
by posting in their story, album done, in air quotes, fake news.
Okay, there is a part of me that wishes Rock Nation didn't even do that.
Because in a lot of ways, things like that are validation for the Ray Daniels of the world.
And that's really why I'm doing this donkey this morning.
See, nobody cares about having a voice that has actual value.
People only care about going viral by any means.
Okay, I know Ray is loving this attention.
Okay.
This is what these guys do this.
for. They don't care about being right. They don't care about having credibility. They just care about
attention. They just care about being acknowledged. But I'm here to tell you, that's not
sustainable. Okay. You know, Ray told me once himself. I only met Ray once in my life. I think I
talked to him twice, once on the phone and I met him because he was at the Black Effect Podcast
Festival earlier this year in Atlanta. And he said to me that he only started podcasting.
And he only says the things that he says because he wants another job in the music industry.
I don't even know what that means, okay, because I thought he was in the music industry already,
but he said to me saying the things he says gets him attention from...
Now, it's very interesting.
When did Charlemagne become the person to personally call people he has zero relationship with
to check them over their conversation about Jay-Z?
Also, even if, okay, I get a Jay's your guy, you like Jay or whatever, you're endearing to him,
why not correct him publicly?
That's what I would do if someone, you know,
Waino just said something about Drake.
I'm not calling Waino like,
Waino, don't ever say that about Drake, bro.
Let me put you on game.
I'll just correct him publicly if it's, you know,
something that I'd find it incorrect.
The idea of trying to call someone privately,
trying to change their opinion,
trying to make sure they're on code,
seems like you believe that,
and this does happen.
happen. Sometimes when people reach out, you're like, oh, shit, I'm either popular, I'm valuable
enough that this person would reach out. I should get on the same program as this person
because they're trying to correct me and they're trying to correct me that maybe I could be
as successful as them. Charlemagne is now the $200 million guy. Why is Charlemagne, the $200 million
guy making personal phone calls to, with all due respect to Ray Daniels, he's not a top
media guy in hip-hop.
Why is that, why is a $200 million guy calling that guy telling him to switch up his tune
about Jay-Z?
That's not odd to y'all?
Like, if I'm up $200 million, I don't even give a fuck if I had told about, matter of fact,
I might even call up and be like, yo, let's art, all right, shit, even if I say I like Drake.
I'll argue for Drake
You argue for the other side
I'm up $200 million
I'm not secretly calling
Like yo bro please don't talk about Drake like that
Unless maybe
I'm in that camp so much
Or I'm being paid by them
Charlemagne is a $200 million guy
Call in a mid-tier podcaster
To tell them that they shouldn't talk about Jay-Z like that
That's not confusing
From these music industry folks
I guess he's trying to work
Well, Ray, when you get things so wrong consistently, all you do is show people exactly why you don't have a job in the music industry.
Okay, you call yourself a cultural referee.
Well, when a sports referee consistently makes incorrect calls, major professional leagues and amateur organizations, use internal gratings to hold them accountable and poor grades directly lower in officials ranking within their league.
Oh, your ranking's pretty low right now, Ray.
Okay, look, I don't know what your grade is amongst people who don't know any better.
Okay, the regular everyday person who gets on YouTube and listens to you might swear by you because they don't know any better.
But to someone like me, you get an F at your worst, a C plus at your best.
Well, actually a C minus.
A C minus at your best, okay?
Because majority of the time I listen to you, I think to myself, is there anyone on planet Earth who knows less about what's going on in the music and podcasting business than Ray Daniels?
Just my opinion, Ray.
Okay, and I know you think I work for Rock Nation.
Okay, I've heard your commentary on it.
So you're going to try to say Rock Nation paid me to say this, but this is just all my opinion.
Okay.
Here's a pro tip.
All right.
Instead of saying matter-of-factly, JZ album is done, how about say someone told you?
Oh, you don't know.
He said he heard.
But this is true or not, but this is what you heard.
Okay.
If you care, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I said, this is what you heard.
Hold on him.
Let's go back.
Let's go back, right?
Let's go back.
let's go back.
You said, why not say what you heard?
Here we go.
Here we go.
Here we go.
I want to play the full clip.
Here we go.
Oh, my God, I got to scroll all the way down to find it.
Ray responded.
That's why it's bringing up those clips,
but I want to bring up the original clip where he says this, right?
Where he says the album is done.
Maybe I got to, like, Google it.
Sorry.
Okay, could I find it?
Okay, is it this?
No, Jesus Christ, I can't.
This is how much clips go viral quickly?
Is it this?
Oh, here we go, here we go.
Let's see what he said.
Not going to put himself out to learn from Hove.
Hove is not going to put himself out there to be laughed at.
It's just, I'm not doing $60,000, y'all.
By the way, I'll tell you something that I know I heard about on the Jay Z.
What does Charlemagne just say, chat?
Okay.
Here's a pro tip.
All right.
Let's hear the pro tip from maybe one of the greatest.
And this is what I'm saying.
Like, as much as I love Charlemagne,
and remember, like, one of the main things I got off with Charlemagne,
like when I was talking to him, I said,
get out the way, brother.
Like, why is the $200 million guy you got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?
Why are you playing defense for these people?
He's, this guy who's one of the greatest of all time.
Yo, it's like basically bringing out Michael Jordan
is prime to go play versus a high school team or aAU team what why is one of the greatest
media personalities of all time now having to issue pro tips to a mid-level podcaster because
he talked about the person who you claim you have no more business with other than the casino
but let's hear this pro tip that is saying matter of fact here is is is it pro okay and i know you
think i work for rock nation okay i've heard your comment
Terry on it. So you're going to try to say Rock Nation paid me to say this, but this is just all my opinion.
Here's a pro tip from one of the greatest of all time. Okay. Here's a pro tip. Okay. One of the
greatest of all times giving you a pro tip. Instead of saying matter of factly, JZ album is done,
how about say someone told you? You don't know if this is true or not, but this is what you
heard. Okay. But this is what you heard. Well, let's hear what Ray Daniel said.
60,000 y'all. By the way, tell you something that I know I heard about on the Jay Z tip.
Am I the only one that heard that?
Then he said, you want to hear something that I heard about on the Jay-Z tip?
So he literally said, I heard.
He literally said the pro tip that Charlemagne is given while giving him donkey of the day.
He literally followed the same rubric.
Hey, I heard Jay-Z's albums done.
He said he heard.
Charlemagne gave a pro tip saying, hey, just say you heard.
He said he heard.
A little quick update.
His album is done.
Okay.
Let's keep a go now.
If you carry it like that, then it really doesn't damage your reputation or credibility in this space.
But when you say it the way you said it, as if you in the studio sitting next to guru, okay, while the track list is being arranged, as if you're in the marketing meetings, listening to what the rollout plan is, okay, if you say it like that, if you say it like you 100% know what you're saying is the truth, that's when you lose.
credibility. Okay, you lose credibility as a media personality by breaking the trust your
audience places and your accuracy, independence, and integrity. I know Charlemagne, who told me
that inverse wire was a reputable sources. A reputable source. Could anyone, where's the part
where I ask him about inverse? Hold on. No, let me just go to two-law.
We got the full thing.
I just want to use Charlemagne's words.
Academic Charlemagne.
Here what he said to Ray Daniels, right?
Let's go to this.
Okay.
How do you know if you're doing it?
Okay, here we go to this.
Let me go to the transcript and let me look up inverse wire.

You know, I've got to learn for my mentor.
Okay, you lose credibility as a media personality
by breaking the trust your audience, places,
and your accuracy, independence, and integrity.
Now, let me say this.
There is no one who studied Charlemagne more than me.
Nica, I've heard every podcast.
I've read everything, any literary article or book that Charlemagne has done,
I've studied them because you know why?
I study greatness.
It's like Kobe studying Jordan.
So when I hear him say this, I memorialized it.
He's telling me how you lose his trust to your audience.
Let's hear it once again, because this is going to be burned in my memory.
Hear it.

Come back
Because you know what I realized

But I pointed these stuff out months ago
And nobody said a word
So now I realize
I gotta stop the stream

Let's hear what the goat said.
Is the truth?
That's when you lose credibility.
How do you lose credibility?

Y'all better send the cops here back again, man.
Y'all got to, you better swap me again because I'm on this still.
I'm not letting up.
Hold up.
Hold up.
So according to Charlemagne to God,
how do you break the trust and lose credibility?
This is the greatest hip-hop media personality of all time,
giving me you, everybody else for future generations to come.
I need you to understand this.
Slow it down.
This is going to be like URL.

You read InverseWire.
Listen.
You,
you take advantage
of the worldwide

You take advantage
of the worldwide nigger net
and you know

niggas don't read.
Yeah, yo, yo, yo.
You know them niggas

You know what Charlotte's doing
right now?
Which camera?
Who cameras?
By the way,
I peeped it at the moment
and look what I'm gonna say.
Charles is doing right now?
He's basically saying,
yo, we got an article
from nawrite.com.
That's not true.
That's not true.
Nobody ever heard that site.
Okay, well, after this,
I'm gonna read the Wall Street Journal one.
You heard?
You ever heard?
See, the Wall Street Journal mentioned no names and never, ever directed at me.
Drake did not even direct at Grand.
Nobody.
That one?
Yeah, but that got, oh, does it mention George?
No, it doesn't mention George.
It mentions Drake and Aidan Ross.
Oh, so you're moving a cold post.
That's why I said.
That's my whole point you've been moving a cold pose.
Can I read it?
Why that article?
If you don't want me to, I won't.
No, no, nobody knows his place.
If you don't want me, listen, if you don't want me to read it, I won't.
Yo, you might as well.
You do deflect.
You can, but you might as well read somebody's substack.
You go, you use the Wall Street Journal, which is legit.
But they're talking about Polly Market.
They're talking about Drake who mentioned him in the song,
which, by the way, Drake care about whatever you want.
Cool.
They mentioned A.A. Ross, who did do a deal with them.
Fine.
Nothing mentions George.
Nothing mentions me.
The Jordan mentions in the civil suits.
You're not mentioned in these things.
But you're using that to make your argument.
Why are you using polymers?
market, listen, I've never done, I didn't do
with call sheet. Like, I'm mad, open and honest. You see,
Sean Mingo, you don't, you won't have to read about it in like some
hidden disclosure shit. You have to read
about it that he was going to be a part of the, the
casino shit for Tom Square. I'm going to tell you what it is.
That he's, he's partnered with Rock Nationals in casino. Me,
I'm going to tell you, I had a polymarket deal.
But you know the different? You know the different? You know the different? Yeah,
that was a fraudulent slip. It wasn't a polymarket. It was
a call sheet.
defamation. Now, maybe
to prove the damages or
balance or whatever. Okay. So I just want to keep going back to it.
But that's how all of y'all
things for a living, not just
you, not just you, but just bloggers and one day they just
might be everybody starts playing times.
Like, you're crazy. The way, it's me versus the rock.
It's cool. No, it's. Okay, this is George.
I'm going to read you this article. You tell me if I'm tripping.
This is from inverse wire.com.
Nope.
Everybody even heard about his website.
That's not true.
He's not true.
Stop.
Rock Nation.
Okay, this is George.
I'm going to read you this article.
You tell me if I'm tripping.
This is from inverse wire.com.
Nobody even heard about this website.
That's not true.
What about me with places and your credibility as a media thing is the truth?
That's when you lose credibility.
Okay, you lose credibility as a media personality by breaking the trust your audience, places.
Has Charlemagne address?
Hey, with all due respect, and I know me and Charlene, we,
We did have a, you know, a decent sit down.
But I'm going to be honest with you.
We got to start all hell.
Charlemagne, you cannot escape the stunt you pulled on camera.
I'm sorry.
I can't.
As much as I love you, you need to answer why you came to the interview prepared with a AI website that doesn't exist.
I'm sorry.
Grand, any of y'all media niggas, heat that shit up till he responds.
Because if I came to an interview with supposedly some.
sort of smoking gun and I basically put out a AI website that ceases to exist and that was my thing
to act like I had a slam dunk on somebody and two weeks later that shit is disappeared from
planet Earth. You know what y'all would say to me? Yo act you are a fraud. You're a fake. You're a pawn.
And honestly, until Charlemagne answers that, I have to look at him sideways. So,
doesn't have to answer to the fact that he came prepared with a AI website that doesn't exist.
How did he find that website?
There's 50 million questions.
How did you find that website?
The website was registered two days before Drake actually dropped his album.
It had 90 articles in a day from one author.
How come you don't have to explain how the website disappeared?
When you vows for it and said it was a credible website,
You vouch for it.
How are we still listening to liars?
How could you talk about Ray Daniels?
I'm not even sticking up for Ray Daniels,
but Charlemagne to God,
you cannot speak about credibility
until you address the fact that you came at me
with a AI website that you just swept under the rug.
Where did you get it from?
How come this website that was not known to the masses
you knew about?
How come when we expose all the funny shit
The DNS domain name registration happened two days before Drake's album dropped and eventually just disappeared from public view.
How come you've never said, oh, I thought it was credible?
How did you think it was credible?
I asked you about the author, Dalton Jackson.
How come you said Dalton?
Listen, chat, listen to what when I say the author's name.
Listen to when I say the author's name.
Listen to what he says as if he was, he knew,
more info than me. The guy is not a real person who's an AI. How could Charlemagne sit up on a
breakfast club or any type of, we can't let Charlemagne do this. Charlemagne, you go take your star,
take the 200 million, but we got to say at this point, your credibility is this. We could
have a difference of opinion. You could, you could quote quote, beat me in a debate or whatever the
case is, but you came with lies. You came with lies that wasn't that you got hoodwink. You're too smart for
You came with concerted lies that you basically tried to hoodwink the public.
That alone is a stain on your career that I'm going to be honest with you.
To this day, I look at them like, I'm looking for excuse for you.
That's what I'm asking, could you please explain it?
Are we going to let Charlemagne just keep sitting up there like just doing Jay Z bidding without explaining why the fuck he came with an AI article at me?
No?
So nobody cares that Charlemagne the God came with an AI article to try to shift up.
the discussion and blatantly lie
and try to just capture the
you know the the goodwill of the people
by trying to say someone's crazy
now he has nothing more to say on the topic
now he's talking about
what Ray Daniel said fuck what Ray Daniels
said new more uno's back here
again what about the
fucking AI shit
you brought up against me let's get back to that interview
let's get back to that nobody's going
listen to this shit
okay so we're going off the article
that you said man Dalton did right and I'm saying
that he's foolish.
He mentioned a bunch of different things
clippers to do it, not just the last stream.
But let's talk about the illegal ones,
because I just mentioned legal ones,
the future shit's legal.
Okay.
That's legal.
You're saying, well, what about this illegal stuff?
Okay, so let's talk about what could be illegal, right?
Yes, theoretically, it could be illegal.
Here we go.
I'll tell you right now, the author of it is...
Hold on.
Here we go.
Can I read this particular article about George?
Can I read this?
Can I read this?
This is Charlemaine dying and begging to read a AI.
article. Listen, let me tell you this. I'm so happy that
Charleney got his $2 million. You know what? Everybody know I'm no hate. There's no hate in my blood
ever. I don't know how Charlemagne is torching his reputation. Lying. This is flat out
lying. Charlemagne flat out lied. Listen to when I
at the moment I didn't know it was AI. I was just like this website seemed obscure. Also
the writing seemed like, you know,
You know, AI writing is always like kind of half poetic.
It seemed odd.
I didn't have no real data in the moment.
I didn't know he's going to come at me with this website.
I didn't know that the Wall Street Journal, which is a reputed site,
does not mention Grand Wizard and mentions nothing about me.
It mentions that they did a deal with Aidan Ross,
which Aidan Ross did do a deal with Polly Market.
I've never done a deal with Polly Market.
I've done a deal with Kashi, but that's not of subject.
And Drake rapped about Polly Market, but we have no clue or no.
no proof at this point that Drake had to deal with Polly Market.
So he's using that to be the backbone, but then he's using an ancillary article to be
the substance.
He said, well, this guy, Dalton Jackson from inverse wire.com.
This is the greatest media personality of all time in hip-hop.
The greatest, I want to keep saying it.
The greatest media per- Chalemaine, the guy just got a goddamn.
star on a Hollywood Walk of Fame for tactics like this.
Make no mistake about it, Charlemagne the God, who is celebrating and I do tip my hat to him.
But the reason why he's on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is because tactics like this
versus whoever have never been called out.
But then he tried to use it against his own student.
And I'm looking at it like, brother, this doesn't work.
And in the interview, I didn't catch it all the way, but you could tell that I had something, the antennas was tingling.
And of course, I caught it in the next stream.
But we got to hear what Charlemagne the God feels about why he's using a completely fabricated website.
Because he just got at Ray Daniels saying that you lose credibility when you betray the trust of the people.
Now, granted, there's multiple ways he's betrayed the trust of the people.
I think he should have disclosed that he had some type of say in the casino.
You know what he said?
Well, it was in the documents.
Well, nobody knew that was listening to you on radio.
On radio, you were speaking on, as a matter of fact, on some Times Square needs this.
You didn't say Times Square need this.
Go read the paperwork that they could see that you're in it.
You said Times Square needs it.
They believe you.
You never disclosed.
Legally, I guess you did.
But technically, you did not to the audience.
We're talking about the audience.
Remember, I want to let you know.
A good 60 to 70% of what I know in media I learned from Charlemagne the God.
I have no problem saying it.
But I'm here to tell you, I've never seen this scuminess ever.
I didn't learn this from him.
I didn't learn how to lie.
I didn't learn how to fabricate.
I didn't learn how to try to put a veil over people's.
This is, this is, this is nasty.
So I need Charlemagne.
we don't have to do another interview.
I just need him to explain how he got in contact,
how he got InverseWire.com,
and why?
I'm going to play it now.
Why did you speak to the character or the fact that,
or the fact you thought, or you could get us to believe,
that Dalton Jackson, the author of the article,
why did you speak to it that they were a real person
and a reputed author when in reality they weren't even real?
Let me play it.
here. Hey, all your
clippers, I got nothing more for y'all today.
Y'all going clip this in 15 different
ways and everybody tagged Shaliman.
I don't give a fuck. Everybody
and a mama tagged Shalamane.
I got nothing more to say.
Tag Shalamane. We need to figure out
why he lied, why he's
a puppet for Rock Nation.
Because if he
really and truly
did pass business with them and he
doesn't care, why is he calling and
harassing Ray Daniels?
Why is he bringing a whole AI article to me that disappears two weeks?
Why?
Why is Ray Daniel based on a random tip?
If someone said right now, honestly, if someone said right now, oh, Jake's working on some music,
even if I'm like, I heard he's not.
I'm not, he gives a nigga don't kid a day, bro.
When there are rumblings, like, again, none of my sources are really, you know, verifiable.
But the guys who would be, you know, around those circles, they say, yeah, Jay has been
working on an album. That's what I've heard. That's been
the thing. But I think everybody
knows once a nigga like fucking took out his wicks,
of course he's working on album. Now do I know if it's done?
I don't know. I really don't care
because I'm not checking for no album from those 60 year old
nigger. What are you going to rap about?
Blue Ivy going to college? I don't give a fuck.
Anyway, let's go back to this.
Who you're talking about. Can I read this? Can I read this? Can I read this?
Yeah, from what site? Just say the site.
One more time. You see? Let's say the site one more time.
InverseWire.com.
InverseWire.com.
Very reputable site.
Very reputable site.
You hear this.
You're trying to convince the worldwide,
niggernet, it's not.
This is real news.com.
You're trying to convince the worldwide niggins that it's not.
Now, here's where, I don't give a fuck what you.
I think, like, you know, Sharman, he's a great talker.
Like, this is why he gets all the money.
It's good.
But if Charlemagne is clearly coming in with a concerted lie,
I'm catching even a lie in person.
How could you ever trust what Charlie is saying again?
Listen, like, he's coming in with a clear lie.
Yo, this is real news.com.
You're trying to convince the worldwide niggin that it's not.
He says, I'm trying to convince the nigger net that it's not reputable.
He's saying it is.
InverseWire.com, which is a very reputable site.
A very reputable site.
Has anyone asked the Breakfast Club?
Lauren LaRosa, you live up in Harrison, New Jersey.
Trust me, don't you want me to get on your ass.
You'll be talking about more stalkers than the other one.
Trust.
But you know and he know.
And even the other dumb one who looked like a tranny, she know.
Okay?
Everybody knows.
Y'all have zero interest in this?
Because y'all are quick to report some other shit, huh?
Oh.
Okay.
You're trying to convince the worldwide digging that is like.
This is real news.com.
I'm like, you're trying to convince the worldwide
nigga that it's not.
Who's the author now?
I'll tell you right now,
the author of it is,
his name is,
I think you've got to,
you,
Dalton Jackson.
Dalton Jackson.
Let's hear this.
Senior systems and culture writer.
Senior systems and culture right.
Yo,
this is sick.
I'm gonna be honest with you.
I love Charlemagne.
This is one of the sickest shit
he's ever done in this career.
I love him.
And I,
and I'm really not trying to like,
I'm not trying to engage
or getting into,
Because you know, I always look up to Charlemagne.
But this is one of the lowest shit I've ever seen Charlemagne do,
which includes even him playing Floyd Mayweather when they,
when Floyd Mayweather came and do a drop for them,
and they exposed Floyd Mayweather as a nigger that couldn't read.
A nigga offered to do a drop for your station,
and you put out the audio of him fumbling over words to expose that he had a literacy problem.
That was scummy.
This is down there with that.
It's a low move, and I'm telling you, a guy as great as Charlamagne should not be waddling in the mud and doing the dirty work of Rock Nation, Jay-Z, Tata, whatever the hell the other ball-headed ass, bum-ass niggins at Rock Nation is.
Straight up.
It's kind of like I'm looking.
I'm like, why is Charler?
You know, they got Charlotte like Memphis Bleak, nigger.
Like they sending that, they go off.
Like, how is Charlemaine?
How they got you doing the dirty work in some Sharla?
shit you could get easily exposed in in the shit that you're the greatest media personality of all
time.
Nick, at least let them expose you in like some other shit.
Not in media.
You're the media goat.
I looked up to you.
All these other niggas, whether there's flaco, wherever, they look up to me, which means
if they look up to me, by proxy, we look up to you.
And we're finding out you got the 200 million and you still frauding for Jay-Z?
What?
How does this work?
How do you get $200 million and J.C. still got you like a puppet?
How?
Where is Dalton?
Could somebody ask Charlemagne?
Yo, tomorrow, yo, tomorrow I need everybody to call up to the breakfast.
If you ever love me, I don't want no donations.
You don't even got some.
Call to the breakfast club tomorrow and I need everybody who can hear the sound of my voice
to ask Charlemagne to God, where is Dalton Jackson?
We got to find Dalton.
Charlemagne has done the biggest hoodwink we've ever seen.
A flat out lie.
Why?
To appease,
nappy-headed Jay-Z and clown-nose Desiree Perez.
Somebody said,
can we move on?
We're not moving on.
Let's look.
Hey,
I don't even want to look up the number because I don't want to YouTube.
But everybody shared a number for Power 105,
tomorrow morning these niggins show up there
6 o'clock they get off at 10
I need y'all to ask him on air
where is Dalton
Jackson
what happened to inverse wire
finding Dalton
that's the new thing
hashtag finding Dalton
where is Dalton y'allton
chat we can't find Dalton
chat do you not hear
listen yeah yeah I think I'm delusion
I'm trying to convince the worldwide
This is real news.com.
Like, you're trying to convince the worldwide
niggins that it's not.
Who's the author on that?
I'll tell you right now.
Who's the author?
The author of it is.
His name is, um,
Dalton Jackson.
Chad, I ain't gonna lie.
After this, after this like, you know, back and forth, I was like,
I got so much respect for show.
I'm like, it's no way he knew that's a A.
It's no.
Chat, at this point, I think the jig is really up.
Could I still, like, and again, I want to know that, you know,
because trust me, y'all know.
Even the energy I went into that sit down with Charlemagne,
there's so much love because, bro, I've studied this guy.
I'm just not a snake by nature.
I just can't just flip.
And a lot of people like, yo, bro, don't you see what's happening?
Let me ask you a question.
And I'm asking y'all, do I think Charlemagne honestly just didn't know that Dalton Jackson was an AI?
Do you think it was an honest mistake?
Or do you think that nigga hit me with the Tileile?
back door.
Do you, that's all I want to ask chat.
Do you think that Charlemagne the God knew this was AI, knew this was fake, knew the person
didn't exist, but he used it to try to finesse and sway a public argument, or do you think
that it was a genuine mistake?
He was just Googling and he happened to come across it and he never knew.
Could we do a poll?
Could we do a poll chat?
Listen to when I asked him about the author.
Listen to what he says about him.
Senior systems and culture writer.
Systems media incentives in the architecture underneath modern culture.
That's who wrote this article.
Sounds like a lot of words salad for.
This is my own independent blog.
It's a substack.
Go ahead.
I'm going to read this.
We can move on from this, honestly.
But I'm going to read you this.
I just want to know what you think about this.
Yeah, go ahead.
Here's where the loop closes on itself.
and gets genuinely strange.
The lawsuits allege those rigged casino winnings weren't only for show.
They were a laundering rail.
Money allegedly moved through state.
Chat, I've always, you know, I'm very, you guys have watched me grow up in front of your eyes.
There's been many times, even in the situation with the little baby and you or whatever and dude tries to swing on me.
You know, people, I talk to some, some real street days.
You know, they say, you'll act.
I'm going to keep it a bean with you.
you, you got put in that situation because you green.
You green, you naive.
Like a nigga could tell you it's cool and just line you up to really set it off on you.
You got to get better with that.
Because when a nigga can't get to you genuinely, that's going to be the play.
The nigga going to rock you to sleep.
He's going to say, oh, now everything cool.
That was a good point.
When it comes to the Charlemagne shit, I'm like, that's like a little baby that would do some shit like that.
I'm like, Charlemagne the God wouldn't do those shit like that to me.
Not Charlemagne, nigga, not Charlemagne.
Nigre, you know how long I've been doing.
Nick, I got Charlemagne saved in my phone, not as C-H-A-R-L-A.
Nick, I got him saved like everybody thought his name was spelled.
C-H-A-R-L-E.
Charlemagne, not Charlemagne.
One of them ones, if you know.
It's no way.
Do y'all think that Charlemagne line me up like Tyler Little
bro. Because there is a part of me
and I'm like, nah, you know, I don't know, no disrespect to him.
I don't think Charlotte is like the, you know, sharpest knife in the draw.
So I'm like, maybe Charlotte like, you know, maybe somebody had him fooled, right?
Like somebody had him fooled.
But when I go back and watch it, I'm like, yo, he's vouching for these niggas.
I keep mentioning this Dalton Jackson, nigga, and he's like, yeah, that niggins legit.
I'm like,
states encrypted tipping feature described in the complaints as a wholly encrypted
a substantially unregulated tool, perfect for pushing untraceable crypto to people you'd rather not be caught paying.
And who got paid?
Spot operators.
The suits claim the proceeds finance screaming farms that pumped out millions of fake plays of Drake's catalog,
vending Spotify's algorithm, faking a culture-wide consensus, manufacturing the very stardom that made the casino deal valuable in the first place.
A rich casino generates fake wins.
The fake wins fund fake screams.
The fake screams manufacture real fame.
The real fan sells the casino.
A perfect circle that never was.
once touches reality, which brings us finally to the man behind the curtain who you genuinely
cannot make this up goes by Grand Wizard.
George Wynn, an Australian named as a defendant, allegedly runs the Academics TV account
and operates in chat under that handle.
The filings cast him as the operational hinge, the guy who converts to state crypto to cash,
lies on with the bot vendors, and coordinates narratives.
The paid clips, the manufactured praise, the slander of rival artists, the synthetic chat
height that makes a stage moment feel organic.
And per the elite chat logs, the complaints lean on.
The wizard wasn't freelancing.
He was allegedly taking his marching orders straight from Drake and DJ academics.
The hype man for the hype was himself a higher.
Okay. Could I respond to that?
Please.
Okay.
Now, this was where it sounded like a deposition.
When I said, could I respond?
He's like, please.
I felt like it was almost like, Desiree here.
We got him again.
Another deposition.
He's just like thinks this is an interview.
I said, you're doing a media sleight of hand.
I'm just reading what they wrote.
This is none of my words.
I'm not even saying I believe.
Who's they?
Wait, wait, wait, no, no.
So we're going to have a conversation about it.
The Wall Street Journal article you read, they actually did some investigative research.
With this guy basically is reading that you keep quoting, he's taking three to four lawsuits.
Six, according to the article.
Whatever.
Okay, six.
And he's just putting that in paragraphs.
What's wrong with you should read?
What's wrong with read?
reading.
Charlotte, because you know many, you know many people who have lawsuits against Charlemagne,
if those are putting paragraphs, it would be seen as defamatory and slanderers.
Because it wouldn't be true.
That's why, that's why I ain't going to lie, bro.
I ain't going to lie.
Like this hip-hop shit, bro, yo, yo, let me give all y'all, like, all your up-and-coming
media personalities.
Don't be friends with nobody.
Even me, bro.
Don't even be.
Because if a nigger could do this, bro, I'm telling you, bro.
if a nigger could do this, bro,
you can't trust nobody in this shit, bro.
You can't, bro.
You can't.
And, like, you know, obviously,
I say don't even trust me.
It's not even some shit that I would do,
but it's like, bro,
I just want you to protect yourself
because for me,
I've been the sucker of I look up to niggas.
That's one of my faults.
Like, I'm loyal.
I look up to niggas.
You think niggas won the best for you.
Bro, niggas is serving you poison calling a Kool-Aid.
they're just lying to you.
Like, and I do hate it about myself
because they could see from a mile away,
it's in my eyes.
They could tell that, oh, I look up to them.
It's in my eyes that I, like, I could,
they could tell that, yo, damn,
I will believe anything we say.
Like, yo, he loves us.
For me, I'm like,
niggas would never take advantage of it.
If everybody took every allegation against you,
that was a civil lawsuit
and then wrote your profile,
That's what they do.
According to Charlemagne, this is how we asked.
He does this.
You'd be like, listen, are we going to add some context to it?
So if we want to go through it, because what it, that sounds like a decently,
it might be Chad GPT.
That guy doesn't look like he's doing too much investment.
Didn't I say, I said chat GPT.
I said it sounds like chat GPT.
You stop.
No, no, no, I'm serious.
Look, look, look, that's my, you know, let me say this.
You see, I'm used to people.
I'm starting to get used to, like, niggas in this.
industry fucking me over, that like when I'm being sincere,
and you know, I've seen me in my strongest and my weakest moments on camera,
when I see Charlemagne with that small,
that smile is not genuine.
That smile is like, you know you fucking got caught, my nigga.
That smile right there, Chad, you tell me, I'm green as fuck.
You're right, I'm green as fuck.
But what's that smile telling you?
So if I have, remember, he's blindsided me.
When I tell you, and as soon as I say, Chad GPT, he hits me with that smile.
What does that smile tell you?
We want to go through it because what it,
that sounds like a decently,
it might be chat GPT,
that guy doesn't look like you.
Look, look.
Do you want some investment.
Could you stop?
No, no, no, I'm serious.
I want to believe Shallo would not do some shit like this.
But it's half blush and half you got me type of look.
I believe Shalda when he says he wouldn't torch his reputation for some outside party.
This is why I get kind of like paranoid.
You know why?
I'll tell you why I get paranoid.
it because if I believe you would torch your your legendary career for some shit like this,
it tells me that you're also behind it.
Because I agree.
I don't think you would torch this for another man unless you had so much significant interest
in getting this over, it also affected for you too.
You're a $200 million man.
How are you trying to peddle a AI article?
and then when I mention it in the interview,
you're like, oh shit, he caught me.
How?
The freeze.
Look at, what does chat?
Could you caption this picture?
This is the moment when I mentioned that the author,
Dalton Jackson, and the website, Inverse Wire,
I said, it seems like it's chat GPT.
What's that AI?
When I mentioned that, he hits me with this chuckle.
caption this goddamn picture for me.
Just caption it for me, Chad.
Caption it for me.
Because I might be losing it.
Just captioning it.
What does this Chuck will tell y'all?
Chat, let me tell you this.
I pray to God.
I know there's a lot of people who are doing media now.
They might have watched me during a Warren Shirek,
watched me during time of me covering Meek and Drake.
They might have watched me just covering hip-hop artists over the years.
They watched me during 2016.
cover all these like purple hair, you know, orange, yellow hair rappers.
And they're like, man, I love what AC is doing.
I want to do that.
This is an oath I hopefully I could make to you.
But even then I say still don't trust it.
I hope I never let you down like how Charlemagne has let me down.
I have, you know, I've never, ever not admitted how much I've looked up to this guy.
I've exalted him to the highest level.
Anytime Complex gave me number one, if Charlemagne wasn't in top three,
go look at my last shit.
They try to not put him in top three.
I told Complex, put him there, nigga.
We all look up to this, nigga.
When I see him trying to get a slight of hand on me,
this is not even off of Survivor because I can't compete with Charlemagne.
We're not like he's in a different generation.
He did what he did.
I want to be just up there with the banner.
He got his 200 million.
There's nothing that is like, yo, I got a box act out.
When he could lie like this confidently.
How could you ever believe anybody else in media
Even if you look up to them
And I say this hoping and trying to pledge that
I hope that the people who were inspired by me
And how I came up
I hope the way that I'm feeling about how Charlotte did this
I hope you never feel that way about me
I'd rather you just look at me as a competitor
Because you know we might get there
Like we were just competing like you know
We're just whatever
But I hope you never be like
Yo this nigga act
Watch him come here with some fuck shit
Watch him come with some lies
watching him like trying to sway me here,
trying to put me there,
trying to put me against this person,
trying to put me in that box.
I hope to God, you never look at me like that.
I rather you look at me as an enemy
or a competitor or someone who's just not a friend.
Because let me tell you this.
This is the worst form you can come to someone with.
Where you're citing shit, I'm calling it out.
I say, sounds like chat GPT,
and you're chuckling and giggling.
You're chuckling.
chuckling and giggling with me.
And I'm looking, I'm like,
Charlamagne helped teach me how to close my own of my first, like,
like close out of interview, 2013.
Me and my man leave, we went to, um,
we took a train from Jersey.
We didn't know New York like that.
We went to the old Power 105 station.
We realized they said, oh, it's moved.
You got to go across town.
Charlman gave me a time to come there.
I don't know New York like that.
If you ever look back at the first interview with me and him,
I'm sweating profusely because I was in the subway.
They don't even know about a subway.
They all live in Jersey, right?
We don't got no subway.
I'm desperately trying to get there.
I finally walking.
I remember Papoos was kind of still in there.
I'm like, okay, good.
He's still here.
I'm over here like fanning underneath my arms.
I'm trying not to be sweating on camera.
I was always impressed by how honest and genuinely was.
He didn't seem like a liar.
Didn't seem like he had an agenda.
and I said
I want to be a version of what that honesty is
to see Charlemagne get
$200 fucking million
and is now turned into the most deceitful form
I've ever seen them in
I have to look up and I'm like
what the fuck did I sign up for
and this is why you know there's levels to this shit
when I saw Charlotteman at the breakfast club in 2013
my nigga
I thought that was the heights of media.
Back then, you know, I don't want to,
I kind of, I don't want to air out like what he was probably getting paid.
But obviously now it's, it's, you know, night and day,
and he's getting compensated, which you should.
But the whole point I'm looking at, I'm like,
not the guy who I listen to Charlemagne every day on that radio.
And I remember when Charlemagne was lying.
Let me tell you, you know, one of the reasons I do live shows,
and I want to see Brilliant Idiot's Live.
Nick, I didn't ask him for tickets
I bought front row tickets
I showed up with me on brothers
because I wanted to watch
I was watching Charlemagne so much
bro I was studying
It was in Hoboken
Nick and I watched him in shows
I didn't even know shows at that time
I could have asked him for tickets
because we were kind of communicating
but I said fuck it now I'm buying
I'm a support because I'm a student
and I knew Charlameen's little personality
because he would come on radio
and he would be like oh yeah no I'm broke
I have this and when when I showed up
to Hoboken I think had a nice ass
I seen him wax and whatever.
He had a nice-ass jaguar park right there, my nigga,
that he walked through after the end of the show.
And I knew, like, okay, you know, I get it.
You know, you didn't tell him the audience the truth.
He's telling him that he owns like a 99 car, whatever, cool.
But still, I was like, I respect just, it was just this honesty.
And from then on, I was trying to model what I was doing.
I was trying to take a little piece.
I was trying to like watch how he dealt with moments.
Okay, shit, I heard that Buster Rhimes trying to press him.
I bet it's going to happen.
There's going to be times like, you know, there was a time, shit, I didn't think rappers knew about me.
I knew at a certain point.
That's why when people like, you know, the little baby shit, like, of course I'm going to give a little baby hell.
Of course.
He has a man swing on me.
But like, I was kind of also prepared for shit to go left.
You know what I mean?
I think he probably thought that like the first sign of like somebody like trying to step to me.
I'm just going to be like, oh my God, y'all got it.
No, all right, cool.
The baby shit happened.
Whatever, like other rappers, we, I've kind of, you know, not really full-on fights or whatever, but it just, it comes with the program.
I've watched him because he was getting swung on.
So I'm watching this guy.
And I'm learning from him.
And honestly, you know, give me a second.
Over here, you got to check shit to make sure.
The police are back up here.
Okay, no, they're not.
And I remember just watching him and I'm like, man, I'm learning from him.
But what I respect the most is this just complete honesty.
And for anybody like wondering, it does hurt.
It hurts.
I swear it hurts.
When Charlotte first called me, Charlotte's cool with GZian people like that, whatever.
One time Def Jam wanted to do some promo with me,
Charlotte put me in contact with his Def Jam check.
I forgot her name.
So like when Charlotte came back around this time
I was like oh yeah they're saying that you know
There's some paid stuff I was like
Well Charlie you know that
Def Jam for GZi wanted to pay me for some shit at one time
They didn't have my shit
They hit you up because you're cool with Gizi
And you're cool with that person
So and you knew what was you know like
What maybe you know not know the details but yeah we worked out a situation
That we could promote Gizi
So this idea that you never knew I promoted
stuff like and everybody knows i'm mad open about like me promoting artists or whatever the case like
it's it's so when he kind of brought that up i was like why show i acting like but i'm gonna be
honest with you fuck all that this right here this was diabolical this smile right here
i don't even know him i you didn't even see him hold on because he hasn't done any research
beyond those things no you got to read this whole you see i knew it the guy didn't do no no research
He was trying to like trump up lawsuits in an article to make the article, you know, in a lawsuit, you'd be like allegations.
I could sue you and say like, you have five heads.
But now when it's in an article, he could be like, oh, no, someone's verified this.
So I confront him with him.
He's like, oh, you got to read the article.
This is a good article.
I didn't read.
Okay.
But everything he's alleging, like we.
So when you read it, why?
So when you read these articles, how come you don't take that to your screen and have these comments?
Because.
y'all want me to and this is why i ain't gonna lie i'm telling you most of all with the charlemagne shit
i like i haven't gonna lie to you don't yo all your media niggas don't even look up to me bro
after i seen charlotte do this shit bro it it feels so nasty of how much i guess you know
i've definitely been blinded by like you know someone who you feels an idol that i hope i would
never do that to somebody else.
Because even when he says this, bro, I've had these
conversations. Y'all want to know, you want to talk about
and this is the thing. I try to talk about the
lawsuits on the shit, but the nigga didn't know
about it. All he knew was the AI printout
that he had. Bro, I tried to talk.
You want to talk about all these lawsuits?
Let's talk about it.
So, Stake, Drake, Aidan Ross, were sued
in Virginia.
Their claims is that
through gambling and possibly legal gambling
that funds have been received
transferred throughout by Drake and Aidan Ross
transferred to George who doesn't live in the United States
and then used to bought Drake's dreams.
Okay?
Now, the big thing, and I tried to bring it up to Charlema in this moment,
I said, does it make sense that Drake,
let's say if he was bought in his music,
he would bought his music through stake.com.
That's not a music website.
It's just a gambling platform.
Why would you bought your music through that?
Also, Botnaf music has been around for a while since streaming popped off.
Why would you need steak?
That doesn't make sense.
He's giggling.
He gives me the same giggle that he's been doing.
So let's actually talk what's actually factual.
So Stake, Aiden Ross, Grand Wizard Chattnaker, and Drake.
They were sued in Virginia court claiming that there were two people who wanted to start a class action lawsuit that they lost money on this site that wasn't really completely regulated.
And the money that they lost, you know, was used to fund buying fake streams for Drake.
and that they have lost out on earnings based on the promotion of Drake, Aidan, Ross, and the like of steak.
That was the lawsuit.
Now, everybody reported on that.
We seen Joe Bunn acting like it was something, which it wasn't.
Now they're quiet on it because now they don't understand law.
Like, everybody does still the headlines.
Nobody understand law now.
So now let me give the update on what's going.
And I was down to talk about it on there.
But you know what?
Charlemagne knew all the accusations, but he didn't want to talk about any of the resolutions.
The resolution is this.
If you are someone who signs up with stake.us,
okay?
So if you're listening to my voice
and you're within the United States,
you would probably use stake.us.
There is a terms of service,
and when you sign that terms of service
to be able to deposit,
to be able to even gamble,
it says this one thing.
If you have a problem with steak,
whether, you know,
you lost a handle on your gambling,
you end up losing your rent money,
you know, like they had too much ads
that kind of drew you in,
whatever gripe you have with stake, it doesn't go through the courts.
Didn't know that?
Yeah, that's what happens.
So it goes to what's called arbitration.
So in arbitration, and that's what happened in Virginia, the judge in Virginia said, hey, according to their terms of service and you're saying you were injured by signing up for a, for a, sign up for account.
It says, if you have a problem with them, you go to arbitration.
arbitration. You go to basically a private judge who listens to both the y'all and he kind of tells you
what's going to happen. So you don't go through the regular court system. Why do people do that?
Because it also protects like big companies or whatever from a lot of things being exposed and things
being public. But the point is when you sign up for stake, you automatically agree to this terms of
arbitration. What does that mean? Your lawsuits ain't going nowhere. It's going to go to the main
court and the main court then going to just toss it out and send it to arbitration.
So in Virginia, they tossed that out.
They said, hey, we're taking off the active docket, go through arbitration and figure it out.
Okay?
So it means there's a separate private process that you could go through with stake and let's
see what happens.
But it's not public anymore.
Cool.
Here's the second thing that happened.
There was eight people.
Eight people.
that ended up being a part of this class action lawsuit.
According to what stake submitted,
state submitted that only two of the people actually ever made accounts.
Keep in mind, if you said you're injured by stake,
that means you've had an account, you've gambled,
and that's how you've gained some injury or some loss that you are now suing for.
They had eight people in the class action lawsuit.
Keep in mind, class action lawsuit could have hundreds or even thousands of people.
Only eight people were in it.
Six of them, or six out of eight, which means three out of four people have never had an account on stake.
Stake showed proof that, hey, these six people here, we have no responsive records that they've ever signed up four hours.
sight, which means they never gambled, they never deposit, they could have never lost.
How is that even possible?
Well, go to what's the dirt and go look at all these other things.
You realize that they basically, that's this person's boyfriend, this person's girlfriend,
this person's sister, this person's auntie, and then they're all basically felons, which
we could invoke the whole rotten age, but we won't.
I went on here, even equipped to talk about the lawsuits.
Shala, when it got time to it, oh, I don't know nothing about it.
I'm just reading from the article.
Well, why the fuck are you reading from an article if you can't have nothing to substantiate it?
So, the case in Virginia, the case in Virginia, tossed.
Tost.
It's going to go via private arbitration, but given what the facts are that most of these people
didn't have a stake account,
how could you get injured by a company
that you didn't even have an account with?
Okay.
Let's keep it going.
They filed a lawsuit,
and when the people, like all these other people,
this is why I can't listen to like the Joe buttons
or the fucking, like,
way-nows and shit like,
because y'all have no skin in the game.
Y'all just blindly dick-rined,
even show them it,
you're just blindly dick-run,
Rock Nation, while ain't nobody outside.
y'all houses. Y'all never been, y'all not in these lawsuits. I know what's going on because I'm in
them. So they filed this in Jersey. Keep in mind, nobody lives in Jersey but me, right?
Drake doesn't live in Jersey. Aiden Ross don't live in Jersey. George don't live in Jersey.
And Stake is a, you know, a company that's not based in Jersey. So they filed it here.
You want to know what happened with that one? Well, it just got in the last few days,
it just got tossed out of, they filed it in my county.
They sat outside my house trying to serve me.
Allegedly.
I don't know.
I don't know.
You know, Big Pluto was on the watch.
He told me some shit.
I don't know what Big Pluto was talking about.
You know, that's my dog.
You know, I just never got served.
Anyway.
Anyway, steak, who responds to all of this?
Because here's the thing.
Rock Nation got bread, but State got more.
Trust.
Remember, I told you that.
Rock Nation got that bread, but steak got a little bit more.
Let me just say.
say that. So,
states lawyers get on it. I bet.
Yo, act, kick back. We got you, nigga.
Keep running up. We got you. We love you.
We got you. We got you.
They file what they got to file
at these people. Keep in mind,
it's one individual that's supposedly
from Union County, which is like up the street
for me.
He's claiming, not even that being.
He's blaming drinking them, but he just puts
my name into the mix because before,
I think they thought that I was grand,
so they never put me in anything. Now they put me in
Anyway, the court does what's called they remand the court case to federal court.
They said, this is not a case.
You're trying to do a class action lawsuit.
First of all, you're the only person currently being named as the plaintiff.
But based on what they claim, they claim the amount is over $5 million.
They claim that there's like possibly thousands of people.
And basically the county court says, oh, well,
based on the nature of what you're claiming,
the jurisdiction of where this actually will go down
is not in county court.
It needs to go federal.
You can file in Jersey, but federal.
They remand the case there.
I'll give you the current update on it.
By the way, everything is available via Pacer.
Steak, who got their lawyers on it.
Listen, Desiree, you got some bread over Rock Nation.
I think State got some.
bread too. So it's okay. It's okay. So steak is now engaging these, this one person, I forgot his
name, and he has like six lawyers. Keep in mind, he claims he lost money on steak. He got six
lawyers. Six. By the way, one of the lawyers, what's the dirt done talks about? Impress
a legal group, you know who's connected to. Anyway, steak is going to handle.
eventually they're going to come probably to the same point of contention.
The point of contention is going to be, well, if this person claimed they lost money or they
were damaged by stake, well, for them to use stake, they have agreed to a terms of service.
And the terms of service says that this is not the right venue to deal with it.
And it also says X, Y, Z, which we'll see how that goes.
Okay?
So in Virginia, it's already tossed out of that active court system in New Jersey.
On a county level, it got remanded saying, go to federal.
And then in the federal shit, they're all now like, you know, they're doing whatever, whatever.
But it's going to get, you could tell, right?
So that's the update on all of these situations.
I could speak about it.
I'm knowledgeable about it.
This is not something I'm not in the know about.
Charlemagne comes on a fucking podcast.
He doesn't, he has no idea about it.
He's reading from an AI website.
And when I interrupt him or asked questions about AI website, he continually tells me, I don't know.
I don't know.
Because it's bullshit.
So I'm having it with you.
Okay.
I'll tell you I was bullshit.
Okay.
And I want to ask you what you believe.
And don't do the, I don't know what to believe.
Let's do you believe, right?
Let me give you some known on clipping.
Clibbing is the most normal and the most, it's the most effective way to promote anything these days.
I'm telling you these things as facts.
Yeah.
Epic records just
Just dropped the budget over $100,000
In the last three days
Because future drop it
That's a clipping campaign
This is how you need to post future
This is whatever whatever
We want to make this big
Don't mention this, don't mention that
Goes to Clippers
I have access to
I know the biggest clippers
That's not money to me
But I know about it
The labels are doing
So
So the label
Yeah so pretty much that happens
Now
I don't want to go over what What's the Dirt has done.
You guys could go watch that.
And I do want to kind of like make this part, you know, a little bit of bridged.
But I want to point out to y'all just some oddities that just seems to happen, right?
If you watch the What's the Dirt video, did you watch it?
Did you all watch it, chat?
Here we go.
Where you can watch the full-onsens.
Jersey lawsuit, which is basically a carbon copy.
So that you so much.
the New Jersey lawsuit, which is basically a carbon copy, it has the same theory from the same firm.
And when you look at the lawyers whose names are actually on the filing, it gets interesting fast.
George Costell and Richard Kelsey of Impressa Legal Group.
George Costell owns the firm, but the interesting part is his history.
He's a former commercial litigation partner at a firm called Reed Smith, and I'll explain why this matters in a second.
The other owner of the firm, Jason Matcheck, was also a partner at Reed Smith,
and Richard Kelsey, the other attorney on the case, worked at Reed Smith too.
In fact, it's right here on his own Facebook.
It's even on Impressa's own website under the About Us page.
It proudly lists Reed Smith as one of the firms that their attorneys come from.
And I know what you're thinking, right?
Like lawyers change firms all the time.
Like, what's the big deal?
And you will be right if Reed Smith were just any firm, but Reed Smith isn't just any firm.
It has a very specific, very documented relationship with Rock Nation and the woman who runs it.
Her name is Desire Perez.
She is the CEO of Rock Nation, one of the most powerful people in the entire music industry,
and Reed Smith is her personal law firm.
Right now, in 2026, Reed Smith lawyers are representing her personally
in an active lawsuit.
This is all confirmed in court records.
But to understand why Desiree matters here,
you need to look at who she actually is
because Desiree Perez has a documented history
as Jay-Z's fixer or the person who handles the problems.
Back in 1994, she was arrested in a...
Okay.
You know, you guys should have watched the...
What's the dirt video?
What I did want to point out is this.
There's a particular part of this.
okay as they kind of go down how you know maybe they fucked over like you know um what's that coach
named gruden and as everything kind of goes down and you see reform alliance this and third there's
something that's really important okay and let me see if i could bring it back to it here we go okay
Here we go.
At war with almost everyone we just named.
It was just like, all right, man.
We played enough defense.
2026 is all offense.
First and foremost, let me be clear, this is a theory, but it didn't come out of nowhere.
Academics recently revealed on a live stream that he had talked directly with Larry Jackson,
who's now suing those anonymous AI websites to find out who's behind them.
So there was two websites, which ironically, doesn't.
exist anymore.
Larry Jackson Exposed.com.
If you go to it, it doesn't exist anymore.
If you go back in a wayback machine,
way back machine,
when you look at it and you type in Larry Jackson exposed.com,
you could go back to an archive version
that will show you a snapshot
that will look like, let's see,
could we figure it out?
Give me a second.
Okay, this is the web archive version of it.
Okay, it says scammer exposed.
Larry Jackson and Gamma Yeezi's betrayal.
It says scam.
And it starts showing all these types of things.
It says scam.
Lawrence, Larry Jackson, aka Larry Scamson.
Okay.
It has a whole bunch of stuff trying to detail that Larry Jackson is a scammer.
Okay?
There was two websites that actually launched at the same time.
They both have now been wiped from the internet, ironically, just like Inverse Wire.
Now, it's reasonable to ask Charlemagne because he knew about Inverse Wire.
maybe who gave him the access or told him about inverse wire probably knew about Larry Jackson exposed or it was called there's another website called gamma exposed that those websites came about but they both disappeared just like inverse wire okay now what's happening here and this is interesting I want you to click this too I've I've had this thought I'm like it's no way
whoever is after me, after Drake, after Aidan Ross, after Nicky Binaw,
there's no way they have some synergy with Larry Jackson.
Of course, you know, Larry Jackson has helped me during the past,
but we don't have that much of a, you know, a liaison going on.
And I don't know what Drake has going on with Larry even now.
Granted, Larry did bring Drake into the streaming world with Apple and they got a deal done,
but what's the connection now?
I don't know.
But this was put up.
During the time that supposedly Larry Jackson, his company Gamma,
a few days after it was announced, that their market share,
remember it's a distribution company, their market share had risen to about four and a half percent.
Now, that's huge.
I know you might like four and a half percent.
Who cares?
But for your market share in music, keep in mind, there's a big three.
There's UMG.
There's Sony.
music entertainment,
there's Warner
music group
when it now comes about
and it says,
oh wow,
look at this.
And everybody is kind of like,
wait, how is
Gamma so
powerful or how are they moving the needle?
Just like how
two days before Drake drops Iceman,
the website pops up.
A few days after the news that Larry Jackson's gamma has four and a half percent of the market
sharing music, websites pop up.
It's always after a big story or a big event or right before it.
Now, this is the interesting part.
When I knew that this fuck shit was happening, I took towards the worldwide net and I, you know,
I try to flush it out by using my media, you know,
voice. Well, let's figure it out. Who would be doing this? Da-da-da-da. I think we've done a good job of
flushing it out, but where does it go beyond there, right? Where does it go beyond there?
Give me a second. Give me one a second. Where does it go beyond there? Well, where it actually does go
is that Larry Jackson doesn't use the same approach as me. He's not trying to flush it out by trying
to do an interview with Charlamagne the God.
He said, well, whoever's behind this,
whoever is behind this,
give me a second.
He said whoever's behind this is whoever is responsible for funding the website
and who got the website.
So he did something interesting.
I didn't even know that was possible.
Larry Jackson filed a lawsuit.
and he filed a lawsuit for one purpose
is for the same purpose that I've been trying to figure out
and for everybody who's been fucked with by this entity
we're trying to figure out.
Now, I've kind of named names damn there,
but he don't know who's fucking with him.
He don't know who's fucking with him.
It actually doesn't make sense
why he would get fucked with.
And by the way, I haven't talked to him or anything.
You know, I got to hit him up to confirm.
but it would be kind of puzzling
if it was maybe the people who I think
that's fucking with me, that's fucking with him.
Why?
Let's scroll down a little bit.
Let's scroll down a little bit.
They now term him Larry Scamson
and they said no client retention.
Now, when you look down,
the first thing you're going to see is
I'm going to tell you why it's important.
Usher, someone who has released
Project on Gamma,
didn't Usher perform at the Super Bowl?
I don't know if you guys know how the Super Bowl shit works,
but Jay-Z and Rot Nation runs the Super Bowl.
If an artist is going to perform at the Super Bowl,
the people who are in charge of their rights
and, you don't have the distribution rights,
have to sort of work with,
it wouldn't make sense that potentially they did a deal with
Rock Nation to get Usher at the Super Bowl
and then Rock Nation turn around and make a scam.
It would make sense.
No, no, Jay wouldn't do that.
No, Desire wouldn't do some shit like that.
Wait, would they?
Hey, this is easy math I'm giving y'all now.
Just pick up what I'm putting down.
Usher performs at the Super Bowl.
Y'all don't remember that?
he was rollerblading, roller skating, he was doing the most.
Usher two years ago.
The National Football League welcomed you to the Apple.
Now, here's why I say that.
It would make no sense that maybe the people who are targeting you
would have maybe been a part of the people who have helped one of your artists get to the Super Bowl.
But maybe would make sense if you.
If you now look at the website and the first person who they put on the website is that they're now exposing that, supposedly, after the Super Bowl, that artist left.
Are they trying to poach the artist?
What's going on?
It's kind of odd, huh?
I don't know.
So regardless, we don't know who made the website.
It's truly anonymous.
This is one of those, you know, modern miracles.
But Larry Jackson did something really smart.
You know, Rock Nation's hope is that they could use money to bully anybody.
They could bully the scene, honestly, that they could put people in financial debt, financial ruin, drown you illegal bills that you're like, fuck it, I submit.
And that's what they're waiting for, for you to say, I submit.
Because trust and believe, these people, their goal is not me and another blogger or, or,
me and even as much as Drake is popular.
It is, he's still not bigger than the program.
So they really want a lot of people just out of their way
that they could get ultimate power.
And I know it sounds like some comic book shit, but.
So okay.
So okay.
Larry Jackson suits.
Now I've never seen a lawsuit like this before.
I've never seen a lawsuit like this before.
Let me see if I could find the lawsuit.
If I can find it.
Okay.
Okay, so I know you can't really see this.
There we go.
They're trying to figure out who owns this website.
So it was the famatory.
They said there's no defendants have cloaked themselves in animity
to hide themselves for accountability.
It seems like everything with this thing is about cloaking themselves.
They're waging an existential war on gamma.
entirely from the shadows.
So as long as they remain so,
meaningful legal redress is unavailable to Gamma.
Okay?
Gamma has served subpoenas on various entities
involved in the hosting or technical aspects on the website,
including subpoena to non-party cloud flare.
The goal was and remains to ascertain their proper identity,
serve them a legal process and proceed with litigation in normal course.
Now, here's the interesting part, and it just happened.
chat. So the interesting part has turned into, remember, Larry Jackson filed a lawsuit against
an invisible person or persons. John Doe 1, John Doe 2, up to John Doe 99. Okay? What ends up
of happening is that John Doe gets represented, okay, by a attorney.
Okay? So an attorney comes in to represent a person that is not named. Let me slow that
down. John Doe gets to represent, okay?
John Doe gets to represent an attorney gets to represent John Doe, which is an entity that's not known.
Here's the most revealing thing about it all.
You know who the lawyer ends up being, chat?
Do you know who the lawyer ends up being?
I'll give it to you, chat.
The lawyer that John Doe ends up using is a lawyer.
Lemmy
is a lawyer
that is named
Eleni
Malekul
Okay
I felt we might be even
searched it here
I haven't gone online let's see
Anyway
This is the person
Who ends up being the lawyer
for John Doe
So this is an invisible person
But they're now representing the invisible person
Okay, let's just
type this person into Google.
Type this person to Google, you realize that this person works for a law firm called
Pardalus and No Havica attorneys.
Okay?
This is the lawyer representing the John Doe.
This is an invisible person that supposedly is a party to the website that is being sought after by Larry Jackson.
So the invisible person gets a lawyer.
Larry doesn't know his name.
This is a lawyer.
Well, when you look at this person, you kind of look at it,
they focus on commercial litigation, complex business, contract disputes,
represents a wide range of clients and protection and enforcement of their intellectual property rights,
trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets.
They advise entrepreneurs on the formation and structure of their entity,
registration of their trademarks and copyrights and da-da-da.
Okay, great.
They graduated from the New York University School of Law and received.
a LLM in corporation law,
an advanced professional certificate in law and business
from NYU Stern School of Business.
Her coursework at NYU focused on various financing methods
and cross-border transactions.
She has received an LLM in intentional,
or maybe it's international,
shipping law with distinction in the Queen Mary University of London.
Interesting.
Interesting.
Now that's not,
only part of the story to be known.
If you know anything about law firms and lawyers,
is that she is a lawyer that works for the law firm of Paralas and Nohavica.
Now, when you actually go and let's go meet the team, right?
We got to see who else works here.
You never know, right?
This seems like it's kind of random.
By the way, it's always lost in the details because these people who operate in the shadows
don't expect people to have any type of intelligence or research ability.
So when you go here and you go to about, let's go to the team.
Let's go look at the team, y'all, all right?
So these are all the people that are lawyers at this firm.
Now, the important thing to know is called Pardalus and Nohavica,
which means it's a partnered firm with lawyers underneath it.
So one of the partners, which basically means the owner,
is Joseph Noah Vika, as you see Noavica right here, and Tasso Pardilis.
Okay?
They would be the people who would be the lead attorneys and they're the partners that every lawyer underneath them that are just lawyers or paralegals would basically be reporting to them because they're the firm.
Okay.
It's a combination.
Now, the interesting part, if you ever click on TASO,
uh,
parrilla, and you go to his, you know, background,
because he's one of the partners of where this John Doe or Jane Doe or not actually John Doe,
uh, the Jane, the John Doe's lawyer comes from this firm.
When you go to the person who owns the firm, let's give a read.
Tasso Powerto List is a founding partner at Power DeList and Noah Vico,
uh, and currently serves the executive vice president and general counsel at
Antie Inc., where he oversees a global portfolio business, investment assets, endorsements,
brand holdings, and organizations of social impact.
Their comprehensive portfolio spans various sectors include technology, technology, sports,
and entertainment, health care, and finance.
There is sports media and entertainment lawyer admitted to the New York State Bar in 2005,
the New Jersey Bar, and the Wisconsin Bar.
He's authorized to practice in the United States District Court for both the Southern
and Eastern districts of New York and the United States' courts.
and the United States Courts of Appeals for the Second Circuit
and the Supreme Court of the United States,
the Supreme Court of the United States.
Tassau's case and clients have frequently featured
in major national and international media outlets,
and he has been peer-nominated as a super lawyer in New York
for intellectual property business law and real estate,
which is a title bestowed to less than 5% of attorneys in the entire state.
Tasso's earned his law degree from New York Law School,
focusing on intellectual property,
entertainment, corporate business and business law,
maritime and real estate development.
During the 17 years at Paradis and Noavica,
Tasso has managed the firm's robust corporate and corporate,
commercial and corporate practice,
intellectual property practice, commercial litigation practice,
and criminal defense practice.
He's also a professor.
of sports law at Rock Nation, music, sports, and entertainment.
I wonder what behoove this guy to say,
let me take the John Doe case,
or let me put one of my attorneys on there to take the John Doe case
of whoever Larry Jackson is suing.
Why?
I just wonder why.
So the professor of sports law at Rock Nation School of Music, Sports and Entertainment, puts an attorney.
I digress.
I digress, people.
Anyway, anyway, anyway.
I don't know why any of this is even surprised into anyone.
I don't know why.
