Starting point is 00:00:00 Operation. Welcome to the stream, guys. As promised, I'm back. I think this is day for the streak. Very excited that we are on a multi-streak streaming. Daily streams, if you don't know. So pretty much we're trying to stream every day as long as we can. You know, I feel like we've been slacking a bit.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Inconsistent streams leads to inconsistent results and inconsistent just energy. So anyway, we're just trying to get that a little bit. bit patched up so trying to get these daily streams done for you guys now a bunch of stuff that we want to get to today and I don't know how you guys want the layer of land to be today or the topics to go down by the way is everybody online think everybody should be online welcome to our YouTube and of course my people my few people who'll be on um Facebook okay so a bunch of topics to get obviously the big topic is still the fallout of kentelmarr performing at the Super Bowl you know a lot of people have that really twisted like nobody's mad at kentrick lamar i don't think
Starting point is 00:01:04 kentrick lamar makes his decision himself i think uh people are more um concerned or not really concerned but they're frustrated because um i think a lot of people thought this was a moment that you know a great a legend like little wayne could have got his flowers seen at the super bowl's in new orleans and i think it's more of a j z thing than than kendrick right clearly right obviously kensry's going to continue whatever petty beef he got would drink but that is to be expected. I think the majority of people started to analyze the roles that the other powers that be played a part into it. And then you start to peel back the layers and you wonder, are these moves being done just because maybe other people got problems with Drake?
Starting point is 00:01:51 Or maybe some of these niggas. And I've termed Jay-Z, he's a generational hater. He's a generational legendary hater. and I showed you some examples last night and I think a lot of people caught on to it some people spoke up including the queen Nicky Minaj, Birdman chimed in a lot of people gave their opinions basically saying
Starting point is 00:02:10 hey listen listen you know and for y'all Kendrick fans I get y'all be bored but sometimes y'all got just no one to shut the fuck up to okay no one is attacking Kendrick here right I think the majority of the conversation is about really speaking up for Wayne if more than anything right
Starting point is 00:02:29 Yeah, so that's kind of where the conversation is and yeah people have kind of spoke out about it right now You know we'll kind of get into some of the nuance of that because You know I've heard from both sides and I want to represent the the point of view of Multiple size here not just maybe what I only think you know some people have said Wayne is a horrible performer and they're like yo Would you they're like I've seen a couple examples of his recent performances and they're like, would you want this guy to be headlined in the Super Bowl? Now, I'm going to be honest, the videos
Starting point is 00:03:05 I was shown, they were horrible. Forgetful lyrics, like, he couldn't remember his lyrics. Low energy. Sometimes rapping off beat. Again, sometimes you can blame it on the mic system to send third in here, but still, wasn't the best performances.
Starting point is 00:03:21 And by the way, I always say, like, rap is filled with a bunch of people that don't really know how to perform. Like, I remember when Young Thug, first couple years of his career, he was terrible at performing. You know, a lot of times rappers get on stage and hope the song makes the performance. Oh shit, it's your performing a milly. We're going to sing it word for word.
Starting point is 00:03:42 So pretty much all you got to sit there is just sit there and just walk up and down and do the rapper thing. There is no choreography. There is no routine. There is no stick. You know, sometimes the most you'll see these rappers do. They might have like a tour version or a performance version. of their song, but rap concerts are usually pretty garbage, to be honest.
Starting point is 00:04:04 And I understand why there hasn't been many rappers that's headline in the Super Bowl, because in reality, I've gone to a lot of these rap concerts. Travis Scott's an amazing performer. But I've given criticisms of other artists that I've been to their concerts, and they're just rapping over the original track. It's like they just play the iTunes version. They just rapping over that. You get what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:04:24 And half the time, they're putting the mic to the crowd. They want the crowd to say, they don't want to do that. They just showed up to get a check. So I kind of understand sometimes, you know, that there are criticisms about performance when it comes to hip hop. And, you know, there are a handful of people who give great performances. By the way, again, as I said, I'm going to be fair as much as I can today. Kendrick is a really good performer, right? It's a really good performer.
Starting point is 00:04:50 Now, I don't know if necessarily the performance is what actually is like the determinant factor of why you get that. you get that, you know, act there, I think it's kind of bigger than that. And this is going to sound a little sacrilegious. I didn't like Rihanna's performance. Rihanna was pregnant. That was the big thing. She was pregnant. She couldn't do too much.
Starting point is 00:05:11 She barely did anything. And she got a pass for that because people wanted to see Rihanna. Like, we didn't see Rihanna in years. People love Rihanna. And her being there was enough. People gave her the pass for not having the best performance. because of clearly she was pregnant. So again, I don't know if necessarily the Super Bowl is just the place
Starting point is 00:05:35 where you got to get the best performer. And again, you know, we could also get into some people saying, well, Kendrick could have brought out Wayne. Now, that's only for the people who are trying to be like sarcastic or stupid, right? Like, Lo Wayne is not coming out as a special guest to perform two songs in his hometown for Kendrick Lamar, while Kendrick Lamar is. going to be performing the pedophile anthem of the year like six times no she's not going to do that right like you know just not going to happen first of all he wanted to headline second of old drinks
Starting point is 00:06:09 his man so he's not going to like be a part of that right so that's just not how it's going to go down and by the way i do think that kendrick is somehow going to save this i keep telling you how kendrick is kendrick is jesus in hip-hop form meaning this and i mean to other niggas he could do no wrong So even though I don't think today, I think most of these criticisms, it should be aimed at J.Z. Not Kendrick. But this is the first bad press I've seen Kendrick get in about a year where he could even be next to something that looks like his bad press, even though it wasn't his fault. And I think he's going to save this by whenever the performance happens, I think he's going to pretty much galvanize and bring together and give the looks to New Orleans. and specifically Louisiana,
Starting point is 00:07:03 that people, whatever we're talking about today, we won't be talking about the day after the Super Bowl. You get what I'm saying? That's, you know, he's really good at carefully, you know, kind of shaping his own narrative and also like, you know, he's good with execution. So, you know, obviously we're dealing with this conversation now, but I do believe that whatever Kendrick ends up doing,
Starting point is 00:07:25 it's going to take all this into account. And I keep telling you, he's hip-hop. version of Jesus so people will be fine okay we'll kind of get into that a little bit we might not just start with that off the rip because we also got to get into what nicky minage said and obviously Birdman chimed in but I did want to start off with the unrelated topic real quick it's a real quick topic nothing too crazy but if you guys didn't know football player wide receiver Tyree kill he got arrested on Sunday which is Sunday was yesterday or
Starting point is 00:08:00 two days ago he got arrested right before the game while he was trying to enter the stadium okay if you guys are familiar with florida um when you see the video you're gonna oh he's trying to turn like that's his road you kind of turn into the hard rock stadium um pasturby's filmed him being thrown to the ground putting cuffs and people were wondering what the heck was going on this is the video that was filmed by some people so yeah yeah so he was you also you also see a rose roy's pulling over apparently he's one of his teammates apparently this was earlier in the morning you know they play at one i don't know what time they're they have to show up at the stadium but yeah they were showing up you get what i'm saying
Starting point is 00:08:51 okay anyway there was other videos that kind of showed him not only in cuffs here but it showed him on the ground um and yeah it it It kind of looked like the police were being super heavy-handed with him. I remember yesterday when I was talking to either, what was it, AJ or Aiden, I specifically said, listen, everybody know I love, like, I love police. I'm the type of nigger, not only do I believe in Second Amendment rights that I could protect myself legally with weapons, but I'll call the cops on you too. And that's for any and everybody.
Starting point is 00:09:26 So I am somebody who support using law enforcement, okay? However, I do think there are some bad apples in a bunch. So I think I'm a fair and neutral arbiter when it comes to this. I'm not one of them, I'm like, fuck 12. You know what I'm saying? But I'm also not one of the niggas that says police could just do whatever the fuck they want, especially the people of color, because we do know it's a slippery slope if you go any way where you see crazy tragedies happen like the Sani-Massie thing.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Anyway, I did say I wanted to see the body cam because this look crazy. Like, like this looks crazy here. he also he also um he also um he caught a touchdown he was making some gestures like he was putting his hand behind his back sending the message he later did an interview uh or like a post game interview talking about what happened tyriek hill post game yeah he talked about quickly what happened yeah he did this like simulating him get arrested and he talked about this You feel it? And if I wasn't target here, Lord knows, like, with that guy. So, so his, you know, he was talking about the arrest.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Oh, no, he's talking about football. But he essentially said, right now, you know, so I've been trying to figure that out too. I'm been trying to figure that out too, man. Right now, I'm still trying to put it all together. So I'm not going to give you a version that,
Starting point is 00:11:00 I still don't know what happened. You know what I'm saying? But I do want to say, I do want to be able to use this platform to say, like, what if I wasn't trying to kill, bro? Like, worst case scenario, you know, because it's crazy. Like, I want to be a cop one day. I got to stay true bad and all that, you know, so I got a lot of respect for cops, man. But obviously, you know, everybody has bad apples in every situation, you know. So I want to be able to, you know, use this platform, you know, to, you know, to, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:30 figure out to figure out a way to like flip this and you know make it a positive on both end on my end and then also might be day now what's interested in remember he's the biggest star pretty much damn there um on the team he plays um for the dolphins so he's in that area and you would think that the police if anything they would probably be given a pass to like the players and even if they were doing fuck shit because that's the hometown team obviously those police officers are getting paid overtime to work the stadium Like they're if the perimeter is the stadium they're getting paid overtime money which is usually a lot of fucking money right like more than their normal cop money like just doing patrol in the neighborhoods So that way we continue to give and you know do some positive for a community because that's what it's all about
Starting point is 00:12:15 You got here to like Okay, anyway the body cam footage leaked and I want to hear what you guys think and I'll give you my opinion after we watch over the thing here we go Now, I got a sicker-up. Don't knock on my-on-one. Why don't you have your seat-blah? Like what? How do you have it up? Now, I got to, I'm sorry, you know, I always do the pause and shit, but I'm...
Starting point is 00:12:55 It appears that they pull up on him and they're knocking on his window hard, right? That guy. I don't think he has a body cam on, the one we're seeing it right now in the footage. So I guess he puts the window down and he's saying, bro, don't be knocking on my window like this, right? My boy's in his McLaren, you know what I mean? He's looking clean. He's about to go get like three touchdowns at the game. The stadiums in the back over here, by the way, right?
Starting point is 00:13:17 So he's like, what the fuck? Why are you knocking on my window? Like, like, what the fuck? Like, you know, there's a way you could get someone's attention, tell him put their window down without banging like you're about to try to break a nigger window. So he says that to them and looks like the police, you know, instantly feel like he's challenging their authority. And you'll see what he does next. Now, he puts his window back up.
Starting point is 00:13:47 And, you know, this is the only body cam footage everybody's using right now. We don't know if, like, they said, like, license of registration and he gave it to them, then put the window up. But regardless, you know, I did see some people who made the point. They're like, yo, you can't expect a cop to let you put up a darkly tinted window while they're on a. traffic stop, nigga, you could be pulling out of gun, you could be doing whatever. Now, granted, we can use some, you know, common sense. I'm like, that's Tyree Kill. Why would you do that?
Starting point is 00:14:19 But, you know, for the people who, you know, think about cops during their normal duty when they're not dealing with a celebrity, that's just not a thing that would, they normally allow, like, bro, we don't know if you about to go put a gun, do some shit. We want to be able to see you, right? So they start banging on the window and let me play. Keep your window down. Mani. Hey, keep your window down.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Keep your window down, I'm gonna get you out of the car. As a matter of fact, get out of the car. Give me your ass, get out of the car. Give me out of the car. Get out of the car right now. We're not playing this game. Get out. Get out. Get out.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Get out. Get out. Now this nigga definitely... Ain't get no box from his wife at early at this point, man. This thing had been on 10. Oh! What part of problems, you understand? Hey, Drew, I'm getting arrested, Drew.
Starting point is 00:15:20 I'm getting arrested. Now, it appears he was on the phone with his agent. Drew Rosenhaus is a very popular football agent. That niggas, he's gotten money off all these popular athletes. I don't know how. I'm getting arrested, Drew. I'm getting up, right God, damn. Wait, my mic is low.
Starting point is 00:15:38 It's because I'm not shouting today. Okay, okay. If my mic is, all right, I got you. Sorry, Chad. When we tell you to do something, you do it. You understand? You understand not what you want, but what we tell you. You're gonna fucking confused.
Starting point is 00:15:55 I'm getting out, bro. Too late, too late. All right, bro, take you jail, bro, do what you gotta do, bro. We are, we will. Good, good, bro. It is good. Hey, hey. Don't worry, by you, I hang up the phone.

Starting point is 00:16:26 I ain't do nothin, twin. Damn. Hey, don't park there. Don't park there. Hey! Now the Rose Royce is one of his teammates who clearly, you know, recognizes his car and pulls over. Now they're telling him to have a seat on the curve So he's telling him to have a seat on the curve
Starting point is 00:16:49 So he's telling him chill out Just give me a second You know Now if you don't know And he's gonna tell the cops He's an athlete But he had like some type of foot surgery before So it's just taking him a second

Starting point is 00:17:38 Just call Drew. Hey. What am doing that? What am I doing this room? Hey, listen, listen. Hey, hey, listen. Hey, man, they got Tyree. The cops over here beating on them, man. They're over here beating on Tyweek, man. Don't park there, man. Just get in the car. Hey, Drew, you got to come, man. Just get at the car.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Right out of the side on the side of the aisle. Hey, get in the car. You're parked at the bed of the street. I'm in the car. You got to go before you get a ticket. Hey, I'm not going. Who's the driver? This is my car. All right, move. You got to move right now. Let me have your license. You're going to ticket to. I'm coming. your license. Let me have your license. I'm leaving. I'm not playing. Your license right now. Your license right now. Your license right now. You're not going to give me your license. I'm leaving. Let me have your license right now. Hey, your license right now. Hey, your license right now. Hey, your license right now. Hey, your license right now.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Now I'm gonna lie. Hey, and as I said, I'm somebody who in many situations when people getting at the cops, I could see the nuance to it because I understand they got to do a job. These cops are tweaking, right? I'm gonna be honest with you. This is kind of one of those really textbooks examples of cop sees black man, nice car, jewelry around his neck, and instantly feels offensive. by any action that doesn't submit to their authority.
Starting point is 00:19:16 So what they do is they escalated to a point. Now you get taken out the car, slammed on the ground, sit on the curve. This guy, he's pulled over like, yo, what's going on over there? Okay, I get it. They tell me, yo, you got to get out of here, whatever. Then the one guy says get out of here. This guy comes over like, now you bought to get a ticket. Like, you know, this is extreme abuse of power.
Starting point is 00:19:40 This is like really disgusting, to be honest. But I'm going to be honest with you. You have to be happy that this happened to Tyree Kill because at least we're going to get some follow through with this where we're going to have to hear what the police chief is going to say, what the mayor is going to say about this. Because in reality, the way out these dudes are acting, and this is another thing too, with all due respect to these police officers,
Starting point is 00:20:07 if y'all ever watch police officers when they, encounter men, like other men, that is physically superior to them or that looks bigger than them, taller than them, they usually instantly, it's almost like fear. And it's kind of like the problem with policing, right? This is what people say a lot about, like, white cops and black communities. When a cop is in fear, they go to their instinctual training of trying to get control of the situation but sometimes that gets violent and that could result in somebody dying. The mere fact that this dude is a football player issues no threat,
Starting point is 00:20:48 he's not like approaching them, he's not doing nothing, but the dude is like six five, right? Big ass thing with muscles. All of a sudden, you get this damn cop who's turning the fuck up now. Like he's almost trying to, you know, he's trying to make it a situation that he has to use some type of force. So it's kind of sad because, of course, if it's not Tyreek Hill, I think, I think nothing comes out of this,
Starting point is 00:21:11 or it might even get to the point where somebody dies. So again, apparently this cop, I don't know if it was all of them, but apparently this cop in particular got put on administrative leave. Let me say if I could, police administrative leave, Tyreek Hill. They're going to investigate the whole situation. However, I got to be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:21:37 You know, again, the difference between, between like a good cop and a bad cop is not like a cop that just blatantly breaks the rules. It's like a cop that realizes that even though you have a gun, a badge and you have certain things that empower you as a police officer, your job is to de-escalate. Like this ain't like about ego and trying to out-thug another person or out-tuff that other person. Like your job, most of them, every police job, policeman job is serve and protect. So you're supposed to try to de-escalate.
Starting point is 00:22:11 You're supposed to be like, yo, what's going on with you? Like, why are you, why are you, if you're dealing with somebody nervous, you're supposed to try to get them to calm down. You're not supposed to be the hot-headed one. So, yeah, these guys either need some retraining or, you know what I mean, I'm pretty sure if they did this broad daylight while you're working a detail at a football game
Starting point is 00:22:32 and you're working a detail at a football game and you're seeing people in expensive cars that look like football players, So they probably play for the team. If you're emboldened to do it to these guys, I guarantee you look up in this cop's history. We'll probably find a bunch of other super hyper-aggressive actions that he's taken, probably against other people of color or people that look taller or bigger than this guy. Like these guys look like they're about like, they're probably quick to use that gun too.
Starting point is 00:23:04 So gladly nothing happened. But, yeah, this show was fucked up, you know. definitely I stand with Tyree kill for this 100% these cops are tweaking right these things look like I don't even know why they were trying to tweak out like that so one guy's like y'all break your windows like whoa relax god damn anyway all right people um yeah so today chat uh look like you know
Starting point is 00:23:31 nick minage finally found the uh found the twitter button to respond to all the nonsense that was going on and, you know, Wayne being snubbed and everybody was kind of chiming yesterday, but it took today for her to get her opinions off. Now, she got online today. And by the way, we didn't finish watching that video. We are going to watch it.
Starting point is 00:23:55 But I wanted to read you what Nikki Menad said. Nick Minad said this. Which, actually, before Nicky Minotts, before I get to Nicky Menach, let me read what Busy said. And I want to make this very clear. This isn't, like, I get it. I keep telling you we're in post-battle.
Starting point is 00:24:17 We're all suffering from post-battle syndrome. So, Drake fans, there are certain Drake fans who don't really care if Wayne headlines, they're just mad that Kendrick is headlining, right? Then you have people who might feel both, right? Like, for example, me, like, I'm genuinely kind of disappointed that Wayne's not headlining. Now, do I think that Kendrick don't deserve the headline? Not necessarily. I just look at it as like this just feels like an extension of a battle or a beef
Starting point is 00:24:49 because he hasn't put out any new original music other than the battle. You get what I'm saying? So it feels like almost a payoff from the battle. Regardless, here's the thing. And I think the point about Wayne that a lot of people were trying to make, it kind of rings true because, you know, I'm going to remember. Rita Boosie said, but for everybody who's been questioning, like, oh, no, if you're, if you're, if you're trying to pick up for Wayne, it's just because you like Drake and you're just mad that Ken, no, no, no, it's not necessarily that you're mad at Kendrick. You're mad that Wayne's getting snubbed. I don't think that if you think this would have happened anywhere else, Jay Z's from New York, Jay Z's from Brooklyn. If you think Jayzie would have the Super Bowl here with a rap artist, and I've seen a lot of people message me, They were like, no, look at the last Super Bowl in New York.
Starting point is 00:25:44 It had people not from New York performing. We're not talking about pop artists or R&B artists. We're talking about rap. Rap is a really regional type of, it has a really, in rap, there's a regionality connection to the majority. Actually, not the majority, every artist. Like, part of Drake's story and content is that he's from Toronto. Part of meat mill story is that he's from Philly. Part of 50 J.
Starting point is 00:26:17 Lox is because they're from Nas, is because they're from New York. So there's a regionality connection. I don't know where Post Malone is from. It could be from Idaho. It could be from motherfucking North Dakota. I don't know, right? We usually, I don't even know where is Usher from.
Starting point is 00:26:35 I don't know. Like, I don't even know where he spent some time in Atlanta, but like I don't know where Usher's from. So like when it comes to R&B singers, we don't really care or we don't really know. Pop stars as well, right? Like for example, Taylor Swift, I don't know where Taylor Swift's from.
Starting point is 00:26:51 I think if we say most rappers, you could identify regionally where they're from because that's what their music's about. And also, usually before they bubble up to the national scene, their region is usually giving them the vote of confidence that their music kind of represents, that region, the plight of somebody come up in that region, and they build a buzzup in that region. For example, again, we could name any rapper.
Starting point is 00:27:15 If we say, Dirk, you're going to know Chicago, right? If we say, if we say Moneybag, you know, you're going to know Memphis. If you know the artists and you know their music reasonably well, the rapper, you're probably going to know their region. So for everybody who was saying, why do we care that it's New Orleans? If it was, I'm going to be honest with you, and this is my opinion. if it wasn't a rapper, I wouldn't care. I'm going to be honest.
Starting point is 00:27:41 I wouldn't care. Like if they gave it to, they gave it to Ed Shearing, right? If they gave it to Ed Shearing, I wouldn't give a fuck because I know that somebody's going to be in his ear to say, bring out Wayne for a song or two, right? But when it comes to rap, right?
Starting point is 00:27:57 And also, I think what happens is that, you know, Daisy took over the Super Bowl, Super Bowl Halftime show He took over this whole thing in 2001 Not 2001, 2021 And I think And what happened is that
Starting point is 00:28:20 In 2022 When the Super Bowl went down in Inglewood, California It was a theme Of giving it to rappers that were from the West Coast. Now, again,
Starting point is 00:28:37 let me see who was the performers. They gave it to, you know, 50 was a guest because Eminem got brought out, but Eminem was really with Dr. Dre. There was a showcase in aftermath. So we had pretty much Dr. Dre, Snoop. Obviously, you know, Mary still came out. But Kendrick was represented.
Starting point is 00:28:57 The West Coast was kind of represented on a big level. Now again, as I said, Only because we're talking about rap. If this was pop or R&B, we probably don't care because we would know Wayne would get brought out anyway. But for another rapper to headline in a city that is you've carried on your back for 15 years, that does look a little weird, right? I don't think they would have, like, and I've seen some people, like, I think people really believe New York is pussy. they said that they believe that Kendrick would be headlined in New York
Starting point is 00:29:34 niggas Jay Z got too much pride to make Kendrick headline in New York Jay Z nor no rapper from New York would be jacking Kendrick Lamar a niggil who said on control what he said on control he's like I'm the king of New York you would look like a bitch making a niggle who rapped on control Tomah say he's juggling both coats in one hand he's a king of new all of that shit. If you let that nigga go headlined the Super Bowl,
Starting point is 00:30:05 remember this is rap shit we talk about. We're not just talking about my performance. It's rap shit. If you let Kendrick Lamar headlined the Super Bowl in New York, the whole New York is pussy. And Jay wouldn't do that. Jay wouldn't do that.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Before Jay does that, Jay would just say he's headlining the motherfucking thing. You get what I'm saying? So, I don't believe that Kendrick would be headlining Super Bowl in Jay-Z's home city. But of course, when it comes to New Orleans,
Starting point is 00:30:37 it's just not the same as New York. And also, we have to realize that Jay-Z had access to grind. Access to grind with Drake, access to grind with Wayne. And I know he was seen with Wayne two weeks ago at the fanatics party. Look, you know what I mean? It's not like they're like,
Starting point is 00:30:57 they've been actively feuding, but they got into it years ago and we're going to play some videos later on about how they got into it. Jay Z. Lil Wayne Fanatics. Yeah, they were at the 4040. Where is it? Look, see?
Starting point is 00:31:13 Let me tell you this, man. I keep telling you, Jay Z is a rattlesnake. You feel me? He's a rattlesnake. You know what I mean? He right next to you. Actually, is he a rattlesnake? It's one of those things you're like
Starting point is 00:31:24 they write next to you and you don't really hear them until the last moment when they write. about a bite. Yeah. The whole time, Wayne over here probably trying to chop it up
Starting point is 00:31:34 with Jay trying to make sure like, yo, Jay probably be like, yo, shit. You know you're going to kill that Super Bowl 59. You know, chilling with Jay.
Starting point is 00:31:43 You get what I'm saying? But of course, of course, this snake is always right next to you. You feel me? This whole time Jay was looking at him like this bitch,
Starting point is 00:31:53 nigga think he fit a headline this shit. Let me find a way to snake. You get what I'm saying? A true snake stays right next to you in every pitcher, and that is none other than Sean Carter, a.k.a.a. Rattlesnake, nigga,
Starting point is 00:32:10 aka. Hove. All right? So essentially, you know, you know, they haven't had a bad relationship. And I know what some of y'all are going to say, and we'll get to it. Because Wayne did say, you know, Jay helped him out some taxes shit.
Starting point is 00:32:26 And everybody believes that that means that Jay just couldn't still have any animosity for Wayne. Jay's an ultra-competitive dude. That's why I always tell you. And this always tell you out about the game two thing with Drake. Jay-Z lost the battle, but he used every win in life afterwards to make sure it was abundantly seen that he won at life.
Starting point is 00:32:52 And he won overall. You get what I'm saying? So I don't think he's beefing with Wayne. I don't think he hates Wayne. But Wayne at one point was saying that he's the best rapper alive. He was basically almost trying to dethrone Jay. There was almost at one time too. Birdman was chomping or kind of popping the shit like, yo, me and my son got more money than you.
Starting point is 00:33:17 So you know what Jay does? Shits on them in the most subtle way. Yeah, you got more money than me, but I had to help you with your taxes, little nigger. yeah you you bet you were better rapper than me but nigga i run the shit for my city nigger when when super bowl comes to your city hopefully kendrick brings you on state like he's sonning him that's what it is it's not beef j z what he's really good at is rewrite in history because of how successful he is i don't know if y'all realize that jay has rewritten history based on the positions he's given out
Starting point is 00:33:57 and other people he don't like, he's shunned. That their history is almost like, it kind of look almost pathetic, including how we look at Dame to certain extent. Jay's pretty good at that. So him snubbing Wayne is not him hating Wayne.
Starting point is 00:34:16 That's him putting Wayne in his place. Bruf, yo, remember when you were saying that you were the best rapper alive and all that? Remember you thought that? you was going to like, you know, when it was all said and done, you was going to be ranked over me. Well, when the Super Bowl come to your city, nigger, you don't even headline that shit. You're a guest performer, not the headliner. That's how you son a nigger.
Starting point is 00:34:39 That's how you son a nigger. You son a nigga when he beats your ass in a battle. And then, later on, you sign him. Everything he said in that, everything he's sending that song about business, talking about, I know who I paid dog, searchlight publishing. Like, yo, yeah, when you, so Jay's pretty good at that. Now, I'm calling him a snake, but really, I do think he's a really good businessman. He's the ultimate capitalist, right?
Starting point is 00:35:08 There's only one scummy thing about him. He will convince black people to drink Kool-Aid as long as he got to deal with the Kool-Aid maker. So the Kool-Aid could have poison in it. He going to be like, he going to be drinking the Kool-Aid without the poison, be like, why are you not drinking it? Come on, let's all drink it. I'll be like, well, Jay's drinking it. He said, we niggins and we love Kool-Aid. Let's drink the Kool-Aid.
Starting point is 00:35:30 All the time, half of y'all niggas die. And then he get like $15 billion from the Kool-Aid maker. Like, that's what Jay does. He'll convince you to drink the Kool-Aid. Never tell you he got to deal with the Kool-Aid maker. He tells you it's his Kool-Aid. That's slimy. That's the only thing I've ever really criticized about Jay.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Okay? All right. So, let me get to a little. what Boosie said. Boosie said, man, all y'all acting like y'all cool and how they play in it for the Super Bowl shaking my head.
Starting point is 00:36:01 The most cultural city in the U.S., New Orleans. It's a smack in the face to every hip-hop legend from Louisiana. Master P. Birdman. This shows they never wanted you to kick in the door in the first place
Starting point is 00:36:16 because they still trying to lock it. Super Bowl 22 was in Cali. And a Cali artist was allowed to do their thing, and it was a great show. But now it's Louisiana, and no Louisiana legends can't do they thing. Again, there was a lot of ways to do this. Like Super Bowl 22, the one we're talking about, or not 22, or the Super Bowl 2002, when you look at that,
Starting point is 00:36:50 I don't think it was one headliner. The headliner was multiple people, right? So it's like they gave it to multiple people. Primarily, you know, obviously, I don't think M&M gets on it if Dr. Drey, it was pretty much Dr. Dre says. Like they showcase Dr. Dre Snoop Dog, but with Dr. Drey, you got to bring an M. And then apparently M is the one who fought for 50. But when you look at it, this is pretty much a West Coast thing.
Starting point is 00:37:20 And here's the thing. I don't think people would be that bad. I don't think people would be that bad. mad if the headliner for Louisiana was a multi-headliner thing, right? Because now they don't got to do everything together. If they said Kendrick Lamar, Lil Wayne, Master P. Right? Let's say that, right?
Starting point is 00:37:45 Even though, whatever. Let's just say they said it's three people, right? But Wayne is going to have his own set. Bro, these things ain't killing each other, right? So it's beef like that, brother. You know what I mean? It's a too fucking biggie. You could have said Kendrick is headlining and Wayne is headlining.
Starting point is 00:38:03 But Wayne should be a headliner, not a guest. You get what I'm saying? So, like, what they did in L.A., they gave Dr. Dre Snoop, Kendrick headliners, right? And by the way, Kendrick is headlined before. That's another thing. Like, Kendrick has headlined the Super Bowl before. It's like, damn, give another nigga a chance.
Starting point is 00:38:23 Right? But okay. So he said this show He never once had to kick the door down in the first place They still trying to lock it It was in Caliwaba lies It was now in Louisiana No Louisiana Legends
Starting point is 00:38:34 I kind of agree with that You know what I mean? And again You could have easily Easily Did a co-headliner thing You could have did a co-headliner thing You get half of the show
Starting point is 00:38:47 You get the first eight minutes You get the next I think it's about 30 minutes So like you get the first 15 You get this shit do four people who gives the fuck right but at least kind of showcase the fact that you know and again what you could say we're being overcritical but yeah we are because when j z told us to stop kneeling and that he was going to go organize all the festivities he made pretty much a
Starting point is 00:39:18 cultural promise that he was going to be focused on this and take care in the betterment of the culture to make these decisions. So, you know, if you're wondering like, oh, why I think it's so oppressed? Well, you remember that people were saying the NFL was racist, it wasn't fucking with it. Jay convinced all black people that, no, they're done being racist. We're at actionable items. Let's go rock out. We go rock out with him, but he's making the decisions.
Starting point is 00:39:47 And then we're starting to kind of feel at this point the decisions he's making. Yeah, he is employed and bringing him. pop on, but anybody he don't like don't get opportunities. So now he's using that as a stage to kind of shoot at his ops. 50 cent. Shoot at his ops.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Wayne, right? Anyway, Nick Minaj jumped in today. So Nicky Minaj actually said this man, bro. I try to tell y'all. I try to tell y'all. But y'all wanted brunch.
Starting point is 00:40:24 laughing my ass off. I'm on a fucking roll. Wait. No, no, I'm hacked. I'm hacked. She's joking. She says denying a young black man, what he rightfully put into this game.
Starting point is 00:40:33 For no other reason but your ego. Your hatred for Drake and Nicky got you punishing. Wayne? Little Wayne? The goat? No, all these, was good. Eminem stood firm.
Starting point is 00:40:48 And by the way, I got to go read the full tweet because... Give me a one second. Yeah, she had said a bunch more shirt. Can you know what I can say? I can scroll down. Da, da, da, da. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:07 She says, yeah, she says, Eminem, Eminem stood firm on having 50 cent come out. A white man. Shit is sad. House nigger things. But good for them. No loyalty. Well, then niggas gonna keep son of you.
Starting point is 00:41:26 I understand this part. She says no loyalty. Well, them niggas going to keep sunning you. I don't, she's definitely not talking to Wayne. I'm wondering who she's talking to, unless she's talking to Drake. Right? I don't know who she's, she's basically saying, hmm, that's interesting. Anyway, she said, laugh my ass off.
Starting point is 00:41:47 Good eyes for them, you got good eyes for them. She also said when someone says, wait, this is about Wayne? Oh, girl, sit this out because he wouldn't be doing this. And she says, oh, you think speaking up on injustice within your world? workplace should only be done if it's a person you would do it for I'm really the realist nigger okay uh also she commented on rock nation being the first thing that popped up when you googled her tour and and she says yep everyone's aware clearly they don't care so why should i what am i going to do okay and then um she also said one nigger
Starting point is 00:42:37 took a knee, the other nigga took the bag. That's Jay-Z. He gonna get you niggers in line every fucking time. Then she also said, go enjoy your fucking money before it's too late. All right? And somebody, and I guess, you know,
Starting point is 00:42:54 because Nikki's always been complaining about Rock Nation. And today's the day, they were like, oh, no, Jay is up to some fuck shit. So people were telling Nikki, yo, shit, they said, this is why I believe her every time she speaks. She's yet to be proven wrong.
Starting point is 00:43:07 about anything she says then months later it's Nikki was right and she says yup and I never care about the time they figure it out laughing my ass off it's good for them y'all ready you know the next move blah blah blah you know the next move is going to be to tell y'all a certain someone is being treated so unfairly so y'all could go back into that trance okay um then she says got everything in the world she's talking about j z but still spiteful and evil disgusting. Be happy. A beg. Go be fucking happy, nigga. In rap business, in woman business,
Starting point is 00:43:46 when you got politician and police, you good, though. Plus, that ugly, laughy, taffy alien laughing my ass off. Now, what she is talking about is a CEO of Rock Nation, Desiree Perez. You see, Nikki Minaz talks in codes. So, like, you'll never know what she's talking about. but he's calling Desiree Perez the laffy-taffy alien look-a-like, okay?
Starting point is 00:44:13 Yeah, shout to Jay, man. Listen, I ain't going to lie. I keep telling you, man. Jay's good. That niggis good, okay? All right. Then she said, hold on, hold on. And she said, by the way, you know the half of what little Wayne has done for me and others.
Starting point is 00:44:33 Wayne had Drake and I on his tour Wayne had Drake and I on his tour with no paper sign He was on all my mixtapes with no paper sign This man has literally changed the face of hip hop The hair too if you know you know He inspired so many to tap their faces and get locks Inspires your faves to want to be great MCs He never was in this for the money
Starting point is 00:44:59 It was always been for the love of the music Right she continues she says um hold on and also birn't jumped in she's promoting also new shoe she says god forbid god forbid way leaves this earth right now the culture would be mourning that's why so many people keep saying give our ledgers their flowers while they're still here around to smell them sitting around all day playing games with people's life and legacy god ain't sleep G. Robeson, you will learn that too. Very soon.
Starting point is 00:45:38 I think G. Robeson used to be our manager or something like that. I don't know. Why the random call out. Okay, anyway. Then she says, bots and blogs are being sent astronomical wads of cash in paper bags. As we speak, laugh out loud. Then she says, every content creator and every bot farm just got a money call.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Guys check your message. Every tweet will contain tons of income. engagement from accounts that look peculiar when you click on them. Then someone says, you know, the first rapper the headline in the Super Bowl, which, by the way, I guess they're saying, even though Dr. Dre and them and, you know, Snoop headline, but this is a solo headliner. So they're saying the first rapper of the headline Super Bowl halftime show need to be someone who could represent the art to the highest degree.
Starting point is 00:46:30 And it says that's not Lil Wayne in 2024. Nicky went off. She says, God will punish you. Mark my words. The man that has not only pushed his pen the hardest, but gave the game more than one hip-hop icon as well on his watch, represent the rap game.
Starting point is 00:46:52 The best rapper don't represent the rap game well enough for you? Black people, wow, if this don't hurt you hard to read, it will one day. Look at how our legends are being treated after they have given so much to us. Who are you? You got Just mental swine Delete L.O.L.
Starting point is 00:47:11 You will regret You will regret tweeting this. Life is funny that way. Don't you dare turn your nose up at little Wayne, you dick munching
Starting point is 00:47:20 Bozo. Okay? Then she tweeted out a picture of her and Wayne back in the day. She says, You'll be Harry Potter and I'll be your Hermione. Okay?
Starting point is 00:47:31 And then she kind of clears it up because she wouldn't know. She won't let people know. She ain't beef with Kendrick. She said, you can love and respect Kendrick instead of love and respect Wayne.
Starting point is 00:47:41 Even Kendrick loves and respect Wayne. Every real rapper loves and respect Wayne. Okay? Then somebody says, Republic must have called you, huh? And she says, L.O.L. They did?
Starting point is 00:47:55 You know, she'd be in sarcastic here. She says, they did? She said, if they did call me, I deft didn't get the call, huh? Maybe they left a voicemail. You must not really know how a Nika, you must not really know
Starting point is 00:48:07 Anika hungry pie. This really just shows that your cage and have never been able to simply do and say as you please without any fear other than the fear of God stopping you. Okay. Then she basically, what else she said? Commented on her using that Ebo language. And yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:33 that was pretty much it now again she's right obviously she's been telling us about rock nation for the longest this is what she's been saying Meg the stallion that signed to Rock Nation she believes that Rock Nation is the reason Meg the Stallion's even being compared to her a lot of people believe that Rock Nation is a reason that Meg the Stallion was able to successfully, you know, well, first of all, there's a lot of people who believe that Rock Nation was the people who told Meg, why are you holding it down for Tory, go to the cops. You're going to be a victim. You're the next Rihanna. We're going to run a campaign. You're going to be a victim. That's what supposedly believed by a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Then also, Desiree Perez, the Rot Nation CEO. When does a CEO of a label go to a criminal hearing for a nigger that they don't manage and have nothing to do with. When the artist who is the victim that you do manage, the artist ain't there for every hearing. Desiree Perez was at almost damn near every hearing, making sure that niggatory was underneath a jail cell. So a lot of people believe Rock Nation was really instrumental in sending Tory to jail. Now, Meg, apparently they ran a whole thing trying to make Meg a victim or seen as a victim. Now, here's the thing with that. A lot of people saw through it.
Starting point is 00:50:08 That didn't work too well. Now, when it came to Meg and Nikki, it was supposedly said that they were trying to have Meg compete with Nikki, inflating sales, pushing narratives, and other things that Nikki basically was saying that Rock Nation and Jay-Z was behind. Okay? So she's been saying that for a while. Then now when we see Rot Nation again,
Starting point is 00:50:34 but it's it's at the Wayne situation. We're like, hmm, what the fuck? So she's saying, I've been telling y'all, but y'all just wanted that goddamn brunch. Okay? Um,
Starting point is 00:50:45 yeah, Birdman also chimed it. He says shaking my fucking head. Then he continued by saying, hating shit for real. Then he says, these niggas is pussy. He says,
Starting point is 00:50:56 Nikki, Drake, Tunechi, Y, C, M'B. I'm gonna make these niggas respect us on Gladys. And, That's the name of his mom. Now, if you don't remember, you know,
Starting point is 00:51:08 Jay-Z with his 99 Hall of Fame Haterthon badge, here's a quick refresher of Jay-Z supposedly hating on 50 cent when he didn't want 50 cent to be a part of that 2020 Super Bowl performance where Eminem brought him out. I got to go because he's been doing himself, kind of spoke about what his experience was at the Super Bowl I wasn't in the ad
Starting point is 00:51:40 because of Jay Zian and him was putting it together so I think they still harbor some energy towards me when someone tries the black I'm like maybe it at the Super Bowl he has them in there to say
Starting point is 00:51:52 nah you can't do that on my lap with M because like when Norrie Nore he was he had communication he said yeah I'll talk to the big homie you said to Jay's I hit the home the big home
Starting point is 00:52:05 me Jay Z, right? Them and them called directly or 50. He said, I can't do it if I can't break 50. He has Dr. Dre. He has the support of his crew. Actually, my crew were the ones that actually try to stop me. So, I actually
Starting point is 00:52:25 admire that about him and his crew. And I wish I had that type of support. Yeah. We also had, we also had We also had Tony Yale speak about that as well. Ron showed up.
Starting point is 00:52:48 Yeah, shout to Ken. And he got on stage with them. All of them. Here we go. The list goes on and on. Donald Trump. Donald Trump. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:52:58 Anybody you name that is famous, I've met. You know what I like about 50? 50's on a whole other level, but he's still approachable. You still get to meet the people and get to, and you know, You got a, Jay, got to remember the people that made them. You know, I'm not saying I don't got respect. I respect Jay Z, 50. Used to respect, you know, Diddy, but all that crazy shit going on.
Starting point is 00:53:20 But, you know, I always respected them because I looked at for New York. Those were like the, you know, the guys. You know what I'm saying? The guys with the most money and the most influence. So with Jay, Jay, it's like, when the last time you've seen it? You haven't seen Jay. So I think people are just going to say that. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:53:36 But for me, I mean, Jay, you know. You got to remember he didn't want 50 at the Super Bowl. That was crazy. I'm like, wait, Jay didn't want 50 at the Super Bowl? You didn't know that? Yeah, he didn't want. I remember Eminem push for it.
Starting point is 00:53:47 That was some hated shit. Yeah. I remember Eminem was like, I'm not going to do it unless 50 does it. I heard that. Yeah. But I didn't know that J was trying to stop it. I don't think Jay.
Starting point is 00:53:55 I don't know. 50 never told me that, but I don't think, I don't think Jay wanted them there. I don't know. Because of what, some of the back and forth. I mean, you know, it's competent. Now, this is where I get to ask y'all in chat.
Starting point is 00:54:05 I always said One of my closest friends In this music shit is called Cherry He runs rap caviar I remember talking to him And I said, man, you have a really hard job And I said, bro You kind of have to be
Starting point is 00:54:25 You kind of Yeah, you have an opinion on music But you have to be so fair Nick I got mad beefs And people who I don't like I would probably erase a few careers because I would play shit. I'm biased now.
Starting point is 00:54:40 Like, you know, I'm going to play towards people I like and shun people I don't like. And I guess I say that to ask when someone gets a position that pretty much the culture and like empower them to get, right? Because that's pretty much cultural equity
Starting point is 00:54:58 and cachet in being able to be of service to the NFL to control the black populace and the hip-hop community. That's why Jay-Z got that deal. Does Jay-Z owe us neutrality, or is he just a man? And if you fucked his bitch back in 98, it's fuck you now. Right? Because, you know, that's kind of what he's doing, right?
Starting point is 00:55:33 Yo, fifth, you've been talking shit about me for a long time. I don't want you on the Super Bowl. Yo, Wayne, you thought you said some slick shit back then. You think I'm about to give you a Super Bowl performance to cement your legacy? Hell no. You get what I'm saying? Now, you got to remember this too. And I probably should look up the Super Bowl list of Super Bowl halftime shows.
Starting point is 00:56:00 has Jay performed at the Super Bowl half time? Okay, he has 2020, but he's never headlined. So think about this too. If I'm, if you got to remember, Jay Z's Michael Jordan or like, you know, a lot of people consider him like a Michael Jordaness type of person, you know all these guys' accolades are going to be compared to yours, right? Now, do you want to go give some of the,
Starting point is 00:56:32 these guys that headline in Super Bowl, you know, look when you never had it by yourself, right? Now, for whatever reason, I think he either is just not threatened by Kendrick or he just fucks with Kendrick that much because Kendrick gets those looks. I don't think, this is me personally speaking, I don't think he want to give those looks to Drake, 50, Wayne Because I don't think he want those niggins specifically to have anything over him And is that fair Or is is is is should that be like part part for the course like
Starting point is 00:57:14 Brough He's making a decision at least he's still keeping it hip hop he's going to be biased but fuck it But anyway You gotta think 50 always been competition for Jay, remember? I'm about a dollar. What the fuck is 50 said? That was a long time ago.
Starting point is 00:57:33 That was what? Nine, what? Yeah, but after that they did a song together. Yeah, of course. But 50 was always competition for niggas. Then remember Jay said, yo, 50's coming. He told Siegel and him
Starting point is 00:57:44 and Memphis Bleak and all them. Yeah. And come on. 50's like he's on a whole other level. You got to remember he came after. Yeah, 50 interrupted. You know, 50 interrupted that that Rockefeller run.
Starting point is 00:57:58 Jay Z speaks on 50 cent Yeah, this is the moment right here When you look at the game And you know, you look at where you're at now And you look at the Piz you came up in the 90s Did you say to yourself And again, remember, Jay's still a man I don't care if he's 65 and senile now
Starting point is 00:58:20 He's still a man. He's still competitive. You get what I'm saying? There was a time 50 came through like a whirlwind, like a hurricane. I was going to be here and I knew those guys were going to be there. And I'm asking you that because I want to know what you think of the game now
Starting point is 00:58:37 and who's going to be here 10 years from now. Yeah, I absolutely because I wanted to be here. And I saw a lot of people that opportunities go. I was like, oh, that he's not going to be around. Why aren't you doing this? If I had that, I'll be doing this. And I think about it in those terms. I think about it not outside of what we do.
Starting point is 00:59:00 I think about it just in strategic moves. when you have it and you're about to have it and you know what happens and you know I remember one time walking in the studio and uh it was like a small gap and uh bleak beans everybody was in there and I was like man I'm telling you man y'all better y'all better y'all got a chance right now just flooded put out a lot of music because 50 cent is coming and you know four months later in the club hit and it was over and it was just like okay now They got sit on the sidelines and wait this tight wave out. So like just seeing things like that. I remember when you wanted to sign Wayne before Wayne,
Starting point is 00:59:42 really took off. Yeah. And the club came out. Exactly, right? So that was a thing. Let me go to 50 cents speaking about it. 50 cent JZ Super Bowl. 50 cent did speak on that during the interview.
Starting point is 00:59:57 I want to bring like M because M's our relationship, put it out. Right. It's out. They start to... All right, here we go. Where is it? After map.
Starting point is 01:00:11 Cool. I'm cool. It was no reason for me to... I mean, if I had fell on my head, I would have felt... Man. But look at you, though. I'm still... I got...
Starting point is 01:00:18 I've got... ...perts with Paul. Oh, okay. ...had had communications with Paul about going to do it. But the ad was coming out. They already was shot with... Okay, got you. With him and...
Starting point is 01:00:29 Okay, so... And by the way, you know, again, respectfully, if we're thinking about... that that Super Bowl, I'm going to be honest with you. Like, with all due respect to Anderson Park, I was wondering why 50 wasn't a headliner. Like 50 career-wise, am I tripping? Again, we're talking about in 2022.
Starting point is 01:00:49 I know we're still going through not like us, you know, festival right now. But I think 50 cents career is bigger than Kendrick's career in 2022, right? But he's not a headliner. Right? I didn't know a lot. I think 50's career, is 50's music career beginning,
Starting point is 01:01:13 beginning Snoop? I think so. I think so. Anyway, the point is this. 50 cent deserved to be one of the headliners. It's a multi-headliner event. He deserved to be one of the headliners. He didn't have to be the,
Starting point is 01:01:31 oh, Eminem has to bring you out type of guy, right? And that's what he's talking about. with how it got set up. Is that's, am I tripping? Wait, wait, wait, are y'all saying no to the, to the Snoop Dog one?
Starting point is 01:01:49 Or y'all saying no to Kendrick? Bro, I'm going on statistics, too. Like, bro, 50 has two diamond albums. Kendrick does not have a diamond album. Like, bro, like, longevity-wise,
Starting point is 01:02:07 Kendrick has outlasted 50, right? Because 50 really went from 2003, and I want to say around 2008. So 50's peak is like five years, right? But he did a lot. Did group projects. Obviously, he was also part of this mixtape era, so some of those don't really get the proper shine and count for what it should. But he has two diamond albums. Oh, yeah, I'm talking about Snoop.
Starting point is 01:02:45 Okay. Oh, yeah, I say that's a thing, I said Snoop had a bigger career. Yeah, well, I ain't a lot of Snoop. Snoop been putting out music for forever. Yeah, Snoop got the longevity and he has the moments. Yeah, I mean, I'm, you know, Snoop is Snoop, right? Okay, anyway, less listen to 50 talking about the Super Bowl in his own words. That's not mine.
Starting point is 01:03:06 That's theirs. They harp, right? But when you look at, M is looking at the entire legacy. Here we go. That's when I start saying crazy stuff big. Because I look and I go, oh, that should be. homie right so you he image yourself after a gay painter the big homie want to look like a gay painter what do we talk I think he's
Starting point is 01:03:31 some um Jay I don't know what those issues are like I don't oh here we go here when did it come about like how did 50 cent become involved well I got the call before the ad went out yeah I hope so but look when the when the when the I was in the ad Right. Because of... Yo, by the way, this was like... What year was this?
Starting point is 01:03:54 This was 2023 January. Yo, I gotta give Jay-Z credit for being a legendary hater. Because I'm gonna keep it up being with you, bro. Nigger, when I'm 86 years old, nigga, I'm still hating on Rory, bro. I want to, like, like, I'm hoping to... Nigger, even if Alzheimer's kick in, nigga, like, even if I'm about to forget, niggins, something going slap me and be like, yo, nah, You hate on that nigga for life.
Starting point is 01:04:22 Yeah. I like that. Legendary hater shit. Hey, like, if you hate on a nigga in 2022 and that nigga, yo, the last time they, y'all even really have some musical back and forth was like over 10 years ago. I respect that. That's some legendary hater shit. Like, James need a type of hater. If he see you in the Walker, like, he and his Walker, you.
Starting point is 01:04:50 You with a walking stick, he going to try to fuck up your walking stick. That's the type of hater he is. Like, that's the type of hater. Y'all got to respect it. That, yo, I got to respect that type of hate, bro. This is generational hate, nigger. Yo, this is generational hate. I fuck with that.
Starting point is 01:05:17 Low key. The only thing is J.B. acting like it's not hate. Like, you know 50, you only hate J'Rul 15 lifetimes from now. When 50 die and come back as an antelope, if he sees Jaru as a squid, nigga, he's crashing out to kill that squid because it's Jarl Ruh, nigger. Like, that is multi-lifetime hate.
Starting point is 01:05:40 But J, he don't really own the hate, though. Jay is a generational hater. Jay Z and him was putting it together. So I think they still harbor some. energy towards me. You think you were purposely left out of the ad? No, no. I don't think, I think that they, they were saying NFL had some issues with me that I don't
Starting point is 01:06:09 know what those issues are. Like, what is the issue? You said what I'm saying? Like, and I, um, with, with M, because like when Norrie, Norie was, he had communication. He said, yeah, I talked to the big homie. He was saying, so Jay, he was telling me, you know, the white boy wouldn't do the truth without, without 50. right and I'm like that's when I start saying crazy stuff big is I look and I go oh
Starting point is 01:06:34 that's your big homie right so he image yourself after a gay painter the big homie want to look like a gay painter what are we talking about here we're talking about we're talking about Baskiah he wants to look like a gay painter oh my god I think I know where we're going so now look what I'm saying to you is look when you start looking at that's not mine, that's theirs, they're hard for it, right? But when you look at, M is looking at the entire legacy. Yeah, yeah. The whole thing, like with M, Drey, myself, like, I'm a shady aftermath.
Starting point is 01:07:12 You said what I'm saying? Like, there's so much G-unit, junior records. Right. They forget that I'm, I'm, I'm in, and Drey's artist. You see what I'm saying? Like, but that's, that's just the way it was. Were you a part of it even, like, you say you weren't on the ad, right? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:27 When we saw the initial asset that came out. And you weren't on there. But were you already a part of it? No, I already had communications with Paul about going to do it. But the ad was coming out. They already was shot with him and everybody else sent it. So I'm like, no, cool. I'll be a surprise.
Starting point is 01:07:46 It's cool to be a surprise. Right. Yeah, I was surprised too. I remember every hurt. That's also humbling. That's 50 being humbled. like being very it's a humble response
Starting point is 01:08:00 but that's a nigga who knows you see when you are controversial nigger who be beefing you don't you don't walk around with entitlements you're like nah it's cool now you know it's fine like I get it like my op is putting the shit together I get it I'm not tripping
Starting point is 01:08:14 you get what I'm saying like I fuck with that response by 50 hers I was like man by the way yo tap let me ask you out a question ain't it ironic and this is why yo in life You know, every time we're judging people, bro, we're judging like, you know what, you know,
Starting point is 01:08:32 you know the famous saying where they say, um, if Malcolm X died at a certain age, he'd be Malcolm Little, a guy who was like a criminal, right? And it's basically about like your life, depending on what point people look at it. You could be seen as something, but later on you could grow and develop into something greater. And sometimes you could go up or you could go down or you could progress or regress. you know what's you know what's so interesting 50 was seen as like this this i mean he's still seen as like a provocateur like a uh an antagonist figure of source but he kind of was seen as a a guy who was all about the money selfish and also just wanted to cause chaos and problems
Starting point is 01:09:32 was seen about eight years ago. You know how 50's seen these days? 50s, 50s whole image has changed. He's still a provocative, talks and shit. But people look at him as, yo,
Starting point is 01:09:47 he's the guy who's going to call out the ditties. He's going to call out the industry guys who are getting protected. He's going to say it because he don't give a fuck. He's also going to, like he's also, he's kind of seen more like a people person nowadays. right like everything with shreveport you know humor and harmony like he's kind of if i was to tell
Starting point is 01:10:10 you eight years ago right like let me go more than 10 years ago 10 years ago if i had to say j z puff daddy and did he no not did i mean i'm i'm 50 so those three if i had to say pick the ones you would think are for the people, the ones who would be calling out the BS, or the ones who wouldn't be, you know, just seen as frauds. I think we would have a different answer than today. Do you get what I'm saying? I think 50's image over time,
Starting point is 01:10:57 and maybe time has just helped him, or maybe he's just grown and developed. Where we look at 50 now, we're like, you ain't going to lie man 50's a lot of things but he ain't on the weird time and like them niggas he wasn't fucking 15 year olds like allegedly he he wasn't having the freakoffs and he'd been telling us they were weird
Starting point is 01:11:22 when we thought he was hate you know they used to think 50 was hate back then right I used to watch 50 talk about puff and I used to be like damn 50's a hater bro but I didn't really say hate because I was like I think that's just his op he treats all his ops the same he hates on his ops that's not really hate that's beefing right these days we look at it differently because everybody he went at it with they're looking bad jZ is seen as the incumbent or next up to get exposed on a summer jam screen on some ditty shit by the way
Starting point is 01:12:03 They start heating that shit up a little bit earlier. Apparently a lot of 15-year-old Falky was going on or 16-year-old, whatever they got going on back then. But Diddy, you know, did he had like an interest in like, you know, like repertoire. Like he was seen as the businessman. He was seen as the ultimate promoter. Not saying he was ever seen as like for the people,
Starting point is 01:12:30 but he definitely had that cachet to galvanize the culture. 50 never had that That's what 50 lacked He never had Where the culture would get behind A effort because they're like Oh 50 say let's do it He's for us
Starting point is 01:12:50 People always saw 50 as for the money You get what I'm saying? Anyway Hopefully you get that What the hell? I won 20 bucks Me and Louis betted against it And I was like 50's going to show up watch Nobody, like when I reach out because I want to see what the complications are,
Starting point is 01:13:08 when nobody has any information about it and it only came from that angle, I have to believe that that was something from that. Did you and Jay-Z ever have a conversation or beyond different offices as far as like? We don't need to talk about nothing. I heard that. Yeah. So when you do get the call, it's a no-brainer for you to do Super Bowl. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:29 I'm like, yeah, let's do it. And because it's a great show. You got to pay for that. That was expensive. Yeah, I know. And we had to be here seven days ahead of the show to rehearse it. Like, I was like, I know the worst. Right, right.
Starting point is 01:13:41 Yeah, yeah. Hang me upside down, man. I'm good. Hey, man. Was it different hanging upside down 20 years later? Yeah. Okay, okay, okay. So we get to realize J is just an old school hater.
Starting point is 01:14:01 All of his ops, he never forgave. He never forgot. You get what I'm saying? by the way let me tell you another thing which we don't got to get into it because i feel like he's been chronicling jay hating on him dame did you see jay recently hate on dame dame been trying to you know dame is in debt right so i'm going to explain a little bit right so dame dash dame dash i'm going to give you a little synopsis without playing a video i'll break it down for you up okay so so check this out Right. Dame Dash is in debt.
Starting point is 01:14:41 He owes about like $200,000 in child support. He owes a few other debts or, you know, creditors, hundreds of thousands of dollars. But the biggest debt he owes is he owes $8 million to for taxes. Okay. So if we really add up all the debt, he owes about $10 million. Okay. Dame is a guy who always says, I keep my money in the street, whatever that means.
Starting point is 01:15:05 He says, my money's in the streets, whatever the case is, right? Now, here's the thing. As a result of one of the lawsuits and him being forced to pay, which he's saying he doesn't have the money, they realize he has an asset that could be liquidated. What is that? Is that he owns a third of Rockefeller? Now, here's the thing.
Starting point is 01:15:30 The court has forced him to sell his stake in Rockefeller to pay back some of the debt he owes, which is about $10 million. Now, dame, again, you know, I should know how these court proceedings go. You know when you hear like, say, Dame is broke. He ain't broke. He's rich nigger broke, right? You should remember that even 50 cent himself filed for bankruptcy at a point.
Starting point is 01:16:01 Rich nigger broke and broke nigger broke are two different type of brooks. And I hope you understand that. don't let that go over your head shout to casanova money hell no it ain't no money they got owe eight million dollars in taxes right now in one state a man ain't gonna help me I can't even have no money until I make at least 16 million I gotta pay the taxes if I got it five million they're taking it okay so basically he's trying to pay some debt that he could become whole that he could start owning shit again and really
Starting point is 01:16:34 start using millions again he won't ever be like oh he's getting 40,000 a year like this is a millionaire broke, okay? So what he's doing is that he's kind of being like a salesperson. They're putting the auction on his stake in Rockefeller, right? They're putting his stake in auction. Whatever it goes for is going to pay, going to be a down payment for some of the debt he owes. So of course, if he's full,
Starting point is 01:17:08 to sell, he wants this thing to sell for $20 million. That he could get him out of debt completely, right? Now, if you do the math, Dame Dash, auction starts. The first auction, they announced it was going to be on August 29th, right? And this is when the news started picking it up. The opening bid was $1.2 million. I remember thinking, shit, I think I could make a bid for this bitch. Maybe I'm like, would it be dope if academics owns like for like like one third of like, you know,
Starting point is 01:17:41 Rockefeller, which by the way, the only asset is reasonable doubt. The only asset. Now, this is a whole cluster fuck if you really want to know why the only assets that. You know, there was a separation. It was a bunch of stuff that happened. Anyway, here's the point. Now, because the interest and, and, and, the interest in this Rockefeller stake and Dame Dash is talking about it.
Starting point is 01:18:10 The news are reporting about it. Recently, they pushed it back. And they said, we're going to do, the auction is going to be, it was previously scheduled for the 29th of August. They pushed it back to September 21. But now the opening bid is $3 million. What does that mean, people? that mean the price is going up.
Starting point is 01:18:38 So Dame is happy. Dame is on Instagram live, trying to throw in some little perks for niggas to come in with some big, like some bids like, yo, I'll give you all the Rockefeller chain if you win the bid. Because he wants people to, again,
Starting point is 01:18:51 if you buy this thing for $10 million, you basically clear his debt. So he wants it to be sold. Okay? These are, these are some of the debts he owes. You want to know how Jay-Z is a hater? Let me show you.
Starting point is 01:19:15 Let me look it up. Here we go. Here we go, people. Okay. Essentially, Jay-Z and his team files a legal notice to let all potential buyers know. Hey, if y'all buy this third of Rockefeller, you're only going to own it for a couple of years because there's already an existing contract that says,
Starting point is 01:19:51 the, the master's, the only asset, which is the masters of reasonable doubt, the masters come back to me. So in 2031, which is seven years from now, the masters, which is pretty much what you're buying, you're buying Rockefeller, but they're only assets. So you're buying a company, or one third of a company, but the only asset that that company owns is the masters of,
Starting point is 01:20:21 reasonable doubt and you own one third of it it's already it's already known based on previous agreements that j z will get the masters of reasonable doubt back 2031 so basically jz in the biggest hater move ever he had his attorneys file a legal notice to inform potential bidders in the auction that, hey, you do know you're buying a company, you're buying one third of a company where their only asset is reasonable doubt masters. Well, in 2013, all of those masters comes to me. So in 2031, you own nothing. Sinks the fucking price.
Starting point is 01:21:14 Classic hater shit. Jay, I ain't gonna lie. Yo, I'm telling you, I'm learning to hate from Jay. he sees he sees he sees his man's team fall out of the fall out of his mouth he sees his man is about to like the state asking him for 10 million so now this thing is over here like yo okay i'll sell this to try to pay it off j z says uh-uh-uh let me let niggas know because the price went up from 1.2 the minimum bid to three million dollars so now here's the thing which idiot would pay the starting bid
Starting point is 01:21:51 the auction is going down on September 21st which fucking idiot is going to buy one third of Rockefeller when their only motherfucking um asset is reasonable doubt masters right let's say even if say say the master recordings um
Starting point is 01:22:12 say the revenue that that brings in yearly is 500,000 or let's say a million dollars Let's say a million dollars. Let's say somehow reasonable doubt is still bringing in a million dollars per year. For you to bid for one third of the company, you probably got a bid maybe like, winning bid is probably going to be like $7, $8 million if it started at $3. So you're in $7 million.
Starting point is 01:22:40 Let's say $7 million. It brings back $1 million a year. And by the way, we're overestimated. I should don't bring back $1 million a year. It brings back $1 million a year. and you only get one third of it so you get 300,000 of that. So now let's do the math. You're only going to have it for seven years.
Starting point is 01:23:03 Seven times $300,000. That's $2.1 million. So essentially, if you pay $7 million, you're getting a $5 million loss, and Jay-Z in 2031 gets to get his album back for free. And now you look like an idiot. You just bailed out Dame Dash. And again, yes, this whole thing's a finesse.
Starting point is 01:23:25 Dame Dash, he was trying to throw in some shit to sweet in the pot. Y'all, give you a Rockefeller chain. Hating ass JZ comes in. Hey, we want to let all your potential bidders know, since y'all bought a bid $3 million in 2013. I got that shit. You're going to own nothing in 20131. So you're only going to own this shit for seven years.
Starting point is 01:23:49 Actually, six now. Classic hater, man. Y'all love Jay Z, man. This is type of hate I'm admiring. to get to, bro. I got to get to this type of level of hate. Like, I got to. Yo, here's the thing, Jay-Z is worth reportedly $2.5 billion. His former business partner, Dame Dash, who got his teeth falling out of his mouth on live, is he owes 10 million. Jayze's worth $2.5 billion. his former man's is worth it owes $10 million and rather let him get his finesse off
Starting point is 01:24:31 because here's the thing whoever whichever sucker that that buys his Rockefeller thing is probably a person that cares about the culture and at least they could you know it's one of those things where people like oh I got the just like I got Drake bought the first mic of push a T think it's a fucking Mike who cares but it's push a T Mike you know what I'm same it's like it has to be somebody who knows they're going to be like you're not buying it for a business decision you're buying it to own part of culture you're going to own part of hip hop and rockefellas a hip hop like like cornerstone when it comes to like black labels so you're going to own one third of it cool even if it has no assets you get what i'm saying jzy up two and a half billion his man's
Starting point is 01:25:17 owe ten million dollars and trying to get off a ten million dollar finesse jay he had his lawyer's hate on that shit. Shout to Jigga, man. Legendary hater, bro. Legendary. I got it clap it up. Yo, yo, I've been trying to figure out if this type of level of hate is a Brooklyn thing.
Starting point is 01:25:41 Might be a Brooklyn thing. I don't know. But I got to clap it up for Jay, man. Jay hate on everybody. Anyway. And by the way, some people also, you know, to be fair, some people could interpret this as, Well, he's not hating.
Starting point is 01:25:54 He just wants no drama because in 2031, he don't want somebody, like seven years from now, he don't want somebody to be like, yo, Jay-G stole this from me. I bought it for $7 million. He wants people to know now, you know in 2013, I get the Masters. So, yeah, yeah, okay, whatever. Anyway, shout out to Jay, man. Legendary hater. I fuck with it, bro.
Starting point is 01:26:22 I'll fuck with it, bro. Okay, anyway. So, we have to play, and we didn't finish this yet. Jay, let's go to history. We didn't finish that video. Yeah. Amp. Yo, let's finish this video.
Starting point is 01:26:45 Sorry, and then we're going to play the video of why Jay, don't fuck with Birdman slash Wayne, okay? So let's get past, this is the title. shit, right? This is the title shit. So this is when Drake is falling out. By the way, we all acknowledge that. I don't think Jay is just giving us to Kendrick to say, fuck you, Drake. That's part of it.
Starting point is 01:27:09 But there's a fuck you to Birdman. There's a fuck you to Wayne as well. You get what I'm saying? As I said, this is the real two birds one stone. It dropped his track. I'm on one with Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, and Drake. At the end of Drake's verse, it speculated that he sent subliminal shots towards Jay-Z and Kanye saying that the throne is for the taken, telling everyone to watch him take it, which is a clear reference to watch the throne. Immediate speculation would begin circulating about this line, so Drake would take to Twitter that same day to deny that he was dissing Jay-Z.
Starting point is 01:27:54 Hovdis? Hove of all people has not lost it. That's God Body Flow. That same day, as Drake was rolling out his second album, Take Care, he dropped a track called Dreams Money Can Buy on his OVO blog site. On this track, it speculated that Drake sent more sublimitals at Jay-Z. This track would eventually be re-released in 2019 on the compilation album Care Package. That summer, lately it went from top five, the remaining five.
Starting point is 01:28:27 My favorite rap is either lost it or they ain't alive. That summer on August 29th, 2011, Lil Wayne dropped his album The Carter 4. On the track, It's Good, featuring Drake and Jada kiss, Wayne would respond to Jay-Z's disses towards Birdman on Ham, where he would threaten to kidnap Beyonce and take out Jay-Z. Drake, on the other hand, would throw some shots towards Jay-Z as well, in defense of Lil Wayne and Birdman at the beginning of his verse.
Starting point is 01:29:03 On November 11, 2011, Drake would sit down with Billboard for an interview, and during the interview, he was asked about never winning a Grammy, despite having six nominations at this point. By the way, I think Kendrick took all of Drake Grammys, bro. That's another part of their little, competitiveness. In 2009, Drake's track Best I Ever Had lost to Jay-Z's track, D-O-A. So in this interview, Drake speaks about how losing to Hove angered him. But the one that really got to me was when I lost to D-O-A for Best I Ever Had. That one to me was like, really? Not to say that J-Z isn't the most
Starting point is 01:29:49 incredible rapper and that D-O-A wasn't a good song. I just felt like they had an option to give me a Grammy for a mixtape and they just didn't do it because it goes against the grain of everything that is traditional. On November 15th, 2011, Drake dropped his album, Take Care. On the track, The Ride, it's once again speculated that Drake took subliminal shots at Jay-Z. A couple of weeks later, Jay-Z would share a handwritten note on the OVO blog site congratulating Drake on selling 631,000 copies in the first week with Take Care. That's what I like about Jay, man. You see, when you're a legendary hater, sometimes you got to give props,
Starting point is 01:30:38 but really you're going to disguise the hate. You've got to disguise the hate. Shout to Hove, bro. Saying, quote, Monster Numbers comes in. Proud of your journey. Peace, Hove. After this, beef rumors would be quieted following Jay's comments, and things would settle down.
Starting point is 01:30:56 in 2012 and in 2013 Drake was gearing up for the release of his third album Nothing was the same. Now by this time, Drake was just dominating. Everything he touched was a colossal hit record. On July 25th, 2013, JZ did an interview with Elliot Wilson, where he would speak on his competition with Drake saying that Drake's the Kobe Bryant to his Michael Jordan. There's a respect thing there. But there's also a competitive thing. and it's done in the right way.
Starting point is 01:31:29 He's definitely the one that's reared his head as the guy. He's definitely Kobe Bryant. That August, Drake brought out Kanye at the 2013 OVOFest, where Ye would say that him and Jay wouldn't have done Watch the Throne if it wasn't for Drake putting so much pressure on them by taking over the game. And we would be here to make the music that we made. Me and Hope would have never made. Watch the throne.
Starting point is 01:31:56 On September 24th, 2013, Drake dropped his album, Nothing Was the Same. On the track, Pound Cake, JZ is featured. Now, it is said that Jay-Z actually ended up sending Drake two verses that were set to appear on his album, Magna Carter Holy Grail, but he decided to send it to Drake instead to put on Pound Cake. On the first line of his verse, J-Z actually dissed Drake when he said that he had Benz's, before Drake had braces. On part two of the track called Paris Morton Music 2, Drake would seemingly respond
Starting point is 01:32:43 to Jay's line. Later in the verse, he says that he studied the game from past artists like Jay Z, but now he's doing it better. That same day, Drake appeared on Hot 90s. That same day, Drake appeared on Hot 90s, for an interview to speak on his album, and he spoke on pound cake and his relationship with Jay-Z. Drake would say that they have a great relationship and that Hove is a great mentor to him.
Starting point is 01:33:13 So you have built a nice relationship with him? I mean, yeah, I think like one of the strongest, I think, if not the strongest. Of all the other rappers? Yeah, yeah, definitely. Wow. Who knew? Yeah, I know. Yeah, he's like, he's just like an incredible mentor to me. and gives me great guidance and is very, very supportive.
Starting point is 01:33:36 Is that a new relationship or will you guys always cool? No, it's always been like that. Really? I mean, I think the more, I think the more, I think the more I think the more I make them proud. Oh, that's so cute. You know, the more I show improved, like that the like, you know, that's where the relationship grows. You know, it's just like the more he has to say to me, you know, and I've, I've been. assistant enough to sort of deserve or warrant advice from him.
Starting point is 01:34:04 Right. And he gives it to me, you know, and he's just, I saw him last night. He's like, he's a best, man, for real. He's just a solid dude. Yeah, we like hope of. Oh, yeah, of course. After this, it seemed as if everything was cool between the two, but that would be short-lived. Just months later, in February of 2014, Drake did an interview with Rolling Stone,
Starting point is 01:34:25 where he would take a jab at Jay-Z for having art references. his songs. It's like, Hove can't drop bars these days without at least four art references. I would love to collect at some point, but I think the whole rap slash art world thing is getting kind of corny. Now, Jay-Z's hearing that Drake is called him corny. Probably had him fuming. Drake of all people calling you corny is just crazy, so of course Jay-Z was not going to go for this. The next month on March 23rd, 2014, Jay-Z and his Rock Nation protege, Jay Electronica, dropped a freestyle over Soldier Boys' We Made It Beat. Now this in itself was a shot at Drake because in late 2013, Drake did his own version over this exact beat. On his verse, Jay-Z would directly respond to Drake's comments in his Rolling Stone interview, where he would apologize to Drake for the art references,
Starting point is 01:35:28 but calls him Mrs. Drizzi. Sorry, Mrs. Drizzy for so much y'all talk. Silly me rapping about a shit and I really bought. Bodies rap about guns, Vane shot. A week later, on April 1st, 2014, Drake would drop a track called Draft Day, which is dedicated to the then-Rookie football star, Johnny Mansell. On this track, it's speculated that he clapped back at Jay-Z with some subliminals.
Starting point is 01:35:55 I think I'm on my 8-flow, just watch me paint flowed. We all do it. Later that month, during an NBA playoff game between the Toronto Raptors and the Brooklyn Nets, which of course Drake, hailing from Toronto, supports the Raptors, and Jay-Z being from Brooklyn, supports the Nets. During an on-court interview, Drake would send more shots at Jay-Z saying, This is the people's team out here tonight. You know what I mean? Toronto Raptors. Jay-Z somewhere eating a fondue plate.
Starting point is 01:36:28 On May 13th, 2014, DJ Khalid dropped the track They Don't Love You No More with Meek Mill, French Montana, Rick Ross, and Jay-Z. On his verse, Jay Z clapped back at Drake for his disses on his track Draft Day. Fast forward to February 13, 2015, Drake dropped his album. Those actually, I obviously knew about the sorry Ms. Drissy for so much our talk. Yeah, I knew that one. Ooh, I didn't know about the last one. If you're reading this, it's too late. And on the track 6 p.m. in New York, he sent more subliminal shots towards Jay-Z,
Starting point is 01:37:15 saying that he should be the third member of the throne duo. That same year in 2015, Jay-Z would announce the relaunch of his new. bought streaming service called Title. At the launch announcement, a bunch of big names were on stage, except for Drake. That's because it was reported that Drake turned down Jay's offer to partner with Title. According to Billboard, Drake was supposed to be one of the many celebrities that signed on for joint ownership of Title at a Star-Stotted launch ceremony back in March, but he dropped out as late as two days before the event. Drake seemingly rejected the offer because he did not want to be under Jay-Z and would end up signing a $19 million deal with Apple, which was a direct competitor of title.
Starting point is 01:38:08 In the summer of 2015, Drake and Meek Mill would be engaged in a beef, prompting Drake to drop a disc track called Charged Up on July 27, 2015. On this track, he speaks about signing the deal with Apple and throw shots. at Jay Z's title, keeping in mind that Meek Mill is a rock nation artist. Drake uses the word entitled to do a play on title. I'm trying to take the high road. I still got love for my idols. I got me a deal with Apple and I still feel entitled. On January 31st, 2016, Drake would start off the year dropping a track called Summer 16.
Starting point is 01:38:48 On this track, Drake took a really disrespectful jab at Jay Z. A couple of months later, on April 5th, 2016, Drake would drop his album Views. That same day, he dropped the track called Pop Style, along with One Dance as singles promoting the album. The tracks were released for exclusive digital download on iTunes. On the single version of the track, Pop Style, features the duo of Kanye West and Jay-Z, listed as The Throne. On this track, Jay-Z just did a single line, not a verse. Now on the album itself, Drake did his own version of the track, leaving Jay-Z and Yeh off it. Drake would later explain why Jay-Z only had a single line on the track the next month in an interview with Zane Lowe.
Starting point is 01:39:42 Of course, people want to hear Jay-Z rap, so hearing him do two lines might be frustrating to a certain audience. That's just landed in my lap. I just dealt with it accordingly. It didn't play out how I wanted it to as far as business or whatever goes. So I figured it would be easier to go with my version. Sometimes we just fall on opposite sides of the spectrum. It's always mutual respect, but sometimes it has to be from afar. According to Kanye, at a show during his St. Pablo tour in October of that year,
Starting point is 01:40:15 the track was scrapped from Drake's album due to streaming politics with Apple and title. Also, out of respect for Meek Mill. That summer on June 26, 2016, DJ Khalid dropped his track, I Got the Keys, with Future and Jay-Z. Throughout the track, Jay-Z took more sublimitals at Drake. On the first verse, he opened up responding to Drake's summer 16, saying that he can't be him until he owns his masters. So he's asking me to keep, till you own you on you can be free, till you own you can't be me.
Starting point is 01:41:01 On the second verse, he once again sent subliminal shots at Drake. A real life they like me, real life I'm like no. A couple of months later, on October 23rd, 2016, Drake and 21 Savage dropped their track sneaking. And on his verse, Drake sent subliminals at Jay-Z for saying, that he has to own his masters to be like him. He says that Jay didn't own his masters right away, which is true because Jay Z didn't own his masters until 2015. So Drake says to have some patience and he'll be right there with him. A couple of months later on February 12th, 2017, DJ Callad
Starting point is 01:41:48 dropped the track Shining with Jay Z and Beyonce. What's also like, um, forgotten about is that Jay popped upon these Khalid records and gave those moments because he used that to sign Khalid to Rock Nation. Remember Caled was on Rock Nation? On his verse, I'm for management. He was managing. He managed Calid on Rock Nation and he gave Callet like a bunch of verses. First, Jay-Z sent subliminal shots back at Drake once again, referencing the Summer 16 record. Later that year I ain't I ain't I ain't talking some is right Later that year in November 2017
Starting point is 01:42:32 Jay-Z was on his 444 tour and he decided to pay homage to Drake remixing his tracks Know Yourself and KMT while Drake was actually in attendance in Toronto After this people would think that the beef would be squashed as the two appeared to be on good terms The next year on June 29th, 2018, Drake dropped his album Scorpion, and on the track, Talk Up, Jay Z would be featured. One line in particular, I want to mention, was at the very end of Jay's verse. He talks about killing X, which is a reference to the murder of the late rapper XXX Tentasione. Drake has been heavily speculated to have allegedly had something to do with X's murder. So I find it funny that Jay mentioned this here.
Starting point is 01:43:23 It's also been said that Hove recorded his verse while in Europe for the On the Run 2 tour days before the album's release and X was killed 11 days prior. On that album was a track called Survival, where Drake would reference how he's trading shots with The Goat, which is referring to Jay-Z and how they talked about their subliminal beef. Taking shots with the gold and talking about shots that we send it. The next month, while Jay and Beyonce were still on their On the Run 2 tour, they stopped in Detroit where Drake and Jay-Z would link up being photographed by Rock Nation Senior Vice President Lenny S. This would mark their first time being photographed together in over five years. In December of 2019, Drake did his infamous rap radar interview where he would speak on his beef with Jay Z.
Starting point is 01:44:22 Yeah, everybody. Yeah, I mean, yeah. But you like the sparring, though, you know, because like you say, you take shots with the goat, you talk about the shots that you send him with Jay Z. Like, why has that relation remained intact? Why has it never gone left? I think, I think Jay has a lot of respect for me,
Starting point is 01:44:37 and he's aware of the massive amount of respect that I have for him at the end of the day. And I think we both enjoy the, um, we both enjoyed our moments of, you know, him, you know, checking the young boy and me trying to, to be like, no, I'm here, you know. After this, nothing else happened. And in late 2021, on Drake's album Certified Lover Boy,
Starting point is 01:45:00 Jay-Z was featured on the track called Love All. Who do you think had the upper hand in this subliminal match? Drake or Jay-Z? Hmm. Interesting. Now, tune to the motherfucking greatest. This is a Jay and Wayne one. I'm not going to play all. of it want to get to relevant parts
Starting point is 01:45:22 some of the stuff that you might not know about what really happened with Jay and Wayne is a very interesting thing because at times when Wayne was falling out with Birdman or when Wayne was in contract negotiations
Starting point is 01:45:40 Jay was actually there Z was already solidified as one of the greatest on the third verse of this track Jay Z says that he's going to drop the black album then retire as the best rapper alive. I dropped that black album then I back out. That's the best rapper alive.
Starting point is 01:46:00 Later that year on November 14th, 2003, Jay-Z dropped his quote-unquote final album, the Black album. After this, Lil Wayne saw that the throne was for the taking since I think that's when he, is Carter one at that time? He, Wayne goes on a run from 2004, I want to I want to say mid-2004 to like 2008 obviously culminating with Carter 3 or whatever all these mixtapes like he goes crazy bro since Jay-Z was now retired from hip-hop now something that's definitely worth noting is that j-Z is one of of little Wayne's favorite rappers of all time and Wayne looks at Jay-Z as his idol so this also could play a
Starting point is 01:46:44 factor in this back and forth now everything was cool between Jay and Wayne initially but after Chapter J dropped the Black album is when things would go left. In 2003, Lil Wayne was gearing up to drop his fourth album, which would be the first installment of the Carter series. The album was originally supposed to drop in late 2003, but would be delayed due to Wayne's change in direction of the music, and some of the featured artists that were on the album weren't with cash money, so he put the unfinished album on a mixtape called The Drought. which dropped on October 2nd, 2003.
Starting point is 01:47:24 Lil Wayne would then start making his fourth album, The Carter, all over again. On February 1st, 2004, Lil Wayne dropped his mixtape the prefix, and on this mixtape, he pays homage to Jay-Z by rapping over several beats of Hobbes. On April 17, 2004, Lil Wayne dropped the first single for The Carter, which was a track called Bring It Back, featuring Manny Fresh. On the outro to the track is when Lil Wayne would take the first official shots at Jay-Z on Wax when he said this. Wayne was claiming his spot as the best rapper alive since the best rapper retired,
Starting point is 01:48:11 a clear shot towards Jay-Z, and this is when the beef would officially begin. I don't think that's a shot, though. Best rapper alive since the best rapper alive since the best rapper. rapper retired. So you're basically acknowledging that Jay the best, you're just saying you're the new best. But Jay Z was still retired and in 2004 would become the new president of Def Jam so he didn't respond of course. A couple of months later on June 25th 2004, just four days before the carter dropped, Lil Wayne sat down with IGN for an interview. In the interview, Wayne was asked about the line at the end of Bring It Back.
Starting point is 01:48:49 In quotes, you got a line at the end of Bring It Back where you say, Best Rapper Alive since the Best Rapper retired. That's a pretty heavy boast to lay down on wax. Do you think anybody is going to test you on that? Wayne responded saying, quote, we have yet to see. If anybody does try to test me, then I swear to you, I'll eat them for breakfast. And I'll tell you how it was next interview. Then the interviewer asked, will you eat them with milk?
Starting point is 01:49:19 To which Wayne responded saying, quote, nah, I don't need nothing to digest it down with. They are weaklings. Four days later on June 29th, 2004, Lil Wayne dropped his fourth album, The Carter. During this time, Destiny's Child were gearing up to drop their fifth and final album as a group called Destiny Fulfilled, which was set to drop in November of that year. Now if you know, Beyonce is a part of Destiny's Child, which of course is Jay-Z's wife. One of the singles from the album is titled Soldier, featuring Ti and Lil Wayne. Now, it's been said that Jay-Z actually was the one that requested Lil Wayne to be featured on this track,
Starting point is 01:50:02 so Hove was definitely paying close attention to Weezy. After dropping the Carter, Lil Wayne's contract with cash money was fulfilled, and he was now a free agent. So in December 2004, the then president of Def Jam, Jay Z, was trying to sign Lil Wayne to Def Jam slash Rockefeller. Lil Wayne ultimately declined Jay's offer and on February 7, 2005, Lil Wayne resigned with cash money records. Wayne told MTV News about declining Jay's offer saying, quote, It was very tough, but you know, I'm a loyal dude. I stick with the fan. But I hope we could do something in the future with my fam and his fam.
Starting point is 01:50:46 Jay-Z would speak on the meeting he had with Lil Wayne on a breakfast club interview years later in 2013. The truth is, you know, after I had a meeting with Wayne, you know, I had a relationship with baby. So I felt it was the only right to call him. You know, I called them out of respect. Like, yo, I was talking to Wayne, just letting you know. So after that, I think we received a letter at our office for like torturous interference. And I was like, whoa. Is this sports?
Starting point is 01:51:17 They did you do that? I could have signed them. I could have signed them and then told them after. But, you know, I did the right thing. And I'm cool with that decision. In 2016, Lil Wayne did an interview with Shade 45, Sirius XM, where he recalled a meeting he had with Jay-Z about signing to Def Jam and Rockefeller, where he claimed. that Hove only offered him $175,000. What?
Starting point is 01:51:44 Lil Wayne also spoke about signing with Rockefeller slash Def Jam in 2005 in an interview with Smack DVD on his tour bus. You know, like, and it's been in the press, and streets talk, she was recently about to go to, um, Def Jam. This nigga, hold. You know what I'm saying? What was that about? Yeah. Yeah, I was holling that hole, but as far as you know, about to go, you probably can say whatever, whatever about it, but the situation was we had a conversation and, you know, a conversation with Weezing and Hope could take to the high plateau. Am I tripping or Wayne sounds like even though he looks, he looks inebriated here, when Wayne talks these days, like, I don't know, it's like, I don't know if it's maybe the health problems or the drugs, but he sounds clear. or here.
Starting point is 01:52:38 You know what I'm saying? Even if it's just a conversation, it's going to be more than that because we are who we are. And, um, but yeah, the conversation was about me joining Def Jam or the Rockefeller team or whatever. You know, we didn't agree on certain things or whatever, whatever the situation was, it didn't work out. And I'm here where I am, but you know, it's all up. As rumors were spreading about Wayne signing to Def Jam slash Rockefeller, somewhere in 2005, Lil Wayne was performing at a club in Jackson, Mississippi, which was being aired on WJTV 12, CBS, dubbed as the admission granted special, where he would say that he's now a Dept Jam artist, and the next time we see him, he'll be with the boy, Jay-Z. Now obviously this never ended up happening, so maybe Wayne was just trying to trick the media into thinking he was signed to Def Jam.
Starting point is 01:53:42 Later that year on December 6th, 2005, Lil Wayne dropped his album The Carter 2. And on this is a track called Best Rapper Alive, where Wayne once again boasts about being the best rapper alive. The next year in 2006, Lil Wayne did an interview with Music Choice and he spoke on his track Best Rapper Alive saying that he got no flack for the track and says that Jay Z didn't give him no flack for it either. I ain't get no flack from that. I mean, of course from the haters, but I mean from the man. From Jay, I ain't nobody know. He propped me up when he see me. They gave me a lot of confidence to put that song, put a new song out, call the best rapper like, oh my eyes.
Starting point is 01:54:26 album in another interview in 2006 the interviewer said that one of the tracks on the carter two called shooter could be wayne's version of hard knock life Wayne responded saying quote me and my homies we sit around and even with the success of this album we still sit and say i need that hard knock life song i need that song that got j over that hard knock life song and for you to just say that is on my album that's already out. That's amazing, man. On May 22nd, 2006, Lil Wayne dropped the second installment of the Dedication Series mixtape, Dedication 2. On the skit, I'm the best rapper alive. Wayne once again reminds everyone that he's the best rapper alive. In 2022 at the BET Awards in LA, DJ Drama was interviewed by Hip Hop DX
Starting point is 01:55:19 on the red carpet, where he said that he helped Wayne write the script for that skit, saying, quote, at the time that was coming off of Hove, saying hands down he was the greatest, here comes Tunchi, staking the claim and putting the crown on him. That summer in June of 2006, Jay-Z announced that he would be coming out of retirement at the age of 36 and was dropping an album that fall titled Kingdom Come. On September 27, 2006, Lil Wayne sat down with MTV News for an interview and when discussing Jayze's coming, back, this is what he had to say. Did you get the two calls?
Starting point is 01:55:59 I know for a while you've been one to do something with Jay-Z. He's back out of the time that now. He never called. He never called. I mean, I talked to him, though. You know, he tells me everything I want to hear, though. He let me know that I'm that dude. He see me keep my head up.
Starting point is 01:56:16 That's better than the verse for me. Yeah. I mean, that's my idol right there. That is a robot right there. He never got to do a verse for me. I mean, just from him acknowledging me when anybody else has come in. Nah, Jay, a hater, bro. Nah, this is premeditated hate, man.
Starting point is 01:56:37 Damn. You can tell, this thing is one of the verse, man. When they don't, he says something. That's enough for the boy, right? A couple of weeks later, on October 6, 2006, Jay-Z's first single from his comeback album, Kingdom Come, was leaked to the radio. The track was called Show Me What You Got.
Starting point is 01:57:03 The track would officially be released as the first single to the album on October 30th, 2006. On this track, Jay-Z warns all the rappers in the game that he's back with a line calling himself the Michael Jordan of rap. Now keep these bars in mind because it will come into play shortly. On November 21st, 2006, Jay-Z dropped his comeback album, King. Kingdom Come on the... This album was trash. Gobbage. I think it dropped in 2006.
Starting point is 01:57:41 Even though I did like Lost Ones. Lost Ones is a fire song. That was him basically saying that he was trying to keep up with Beyonce and that he bought his nephew car that he passed away in. I like that song. The title track titled Kingdom Come on the intro, Jay-Z calls himself hip-hop savior, alluding that hip-hop has been dead since he left. Track 11 is a track titled Trouble and on the third verse it's heavily speculated that this entire verse was a subliminal diss towards Lil Wayne.
Starting point is 01:58:16 Throughout the entire verse, Jay is talking to someone he refers to as Lil. A couple of weeks later on December 2nd, 2006, Lil Wayne and Young Money Entertainment dropped the mixtape Lil Weizie. volume one. On this mixtape was a track called Doe is What I Got, which was Lil Wayne rapping over the beat to Jay Z's track, Show Me What You Got, off of Kingdom Come. On the first verse, Lil Wayne once again took subliminal shots at Jay Z when he responded to Jay's claim of him being the Michael Jordan of recording. Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time, so it's no surprise why Hove frequently compares himself to Jordan. Lil Wayne's says that he must be LeBron James if Jay-Z is Jordan, but then he says that he's not LeBron
Starting point is 01:59:11 because he has rings. And in 2006, LeBron James didn't win an NBA finals yet. Then compares himself to Kobe Bryant because Kobe Bryant stayed with the Lakers his whole career. And up to this point, Wayne has been with cash money records his whole career too. And also, Kobe Bryant has won NBA rings at chat i i think we all agree right i'm i'm down i'm down to say this right you know even though yeah yeah i'll say this if we're going to compare the basketball players jay is jordan coby is wayne i think wayne is coby wayne is coby you you looked at and try to mirror and and and take certain things from the guy you thought was the goat you were trying to be him and then you get the LeBron,
Starting point is 02:00:03 the guy who, he don't maybe have a fadeaway like you, but he has different skills. Like he starts singing, he does everything. I think Drake is LeBron. You get what I'm saying? Now, here's the thing,
Starting point is 02:00:17 and this is one of the reasons why I'm big on Wayne getting his flowers is because, you know, rest and peace to Kobe. But Kobe dying, I think people don't give Kobe that, his proper flowers because, you know, they just compare Mike to LeBron. And also here's the thing, too, this is why as you go along in life and you're watching sports,
Starting point is 02:00:43 at some point, you've got to hit your idol with the Allen Iverson crossover. Because if you stay in their shadow too much and you're seen as the consummate student and you're seen as someone who's like, for example, I think, I'm going to be honest with you, I think Kobe would have given Mike the business. But nobody will say that because Kobe's game was modeled after Mike. So he's in Mike shadow. It's sacrilegious to say he's better than Mike
Starting point is 02:01:18 when he learned everything by watching Mike. So that's why, you know, he put himself that, yeah, he's in the same conversation as Mike, but he'll never be greater than Mike. Because all you're known as is that you looked up to this guy, right? See, LeBron's a little bit different, right? Even if he fucks with Mike, like his build and his play is different from Mike. That's where I feel Wayne, you know, you know, Wayne's kind of in that.
Starting point is 02:01:45 Even though, by the way, I don't think Wayne really, you know, if you listen to Jay's raps, Wayne's raps isn't really like, especially latter years when he starts going with all the tune and start doing a lot of melodic shit like uh you know but I do think the propensity and the dedication to lyricism
Starting point is 02:02:05 that Wayne had definitely was inspired and came from from um JZ at that point yo somebody said J. Colas Iverson yo Ma's time that nigga out please don't ever disrespect Iverson like that Alan Iverson's the nigga that had heart and had guts he was playing with bum-ass niggas like Eric Snow and Tyrone Hill and he went to war.
Starting point is 02:02:30 He was 165 pounds soaking wet getting knocked on the floor by 300 pounds Shaquille O'Neal. He never stepped down from a challenge. He never made an excuse. He never backpedaling. He never apologized. Don't you ever time that nigga out. Don't you ever compare a warrior. Let me tell you this.
Starting point is 02:02:48 I'd rather have 55 Allen Ivises around me than have 300 motherfucking jennel. Jay Coles. A Jay Cole nigger once you start losing, he's starting apologizing to the op. You squabbling, you look over. Jay Cole's having a conversation with an op talking about, I'm sorry. Yeah. Don't you ever compare Alan Niversis to a bum ass, and it's not bum ass. I mean, let me not disrespect J. Cole. It's not bum ass J. Cole, but it's a nigga without a heart. J. Cole, like, when you think about J. Cole, Jay Cole is like, he's like the scarecrow. He's like the tin man.
Starting point is 02:03:25 He lacks, yo, he lacks a heart. He's like the lion in Wizard of Odds. He lacks a heart. He lacks everything that makes a warrior. That's Jay Cole. Alan Iverson was never that. If anything, Alan Iverson just had too much loyalty because he never had enough to win the championship.
Starting point is 02:03:46 And if he did what LeBron did by going to Miami and teamed up with a couple niggas early on his career, Alan Navvson would have a couple rings. Word too. Point. I am for my charting a recording. You might want to fall back from recording. I must be LeBron Jay to be charted.
Starting point is 02:04:04 No, I won rings with my performance. I'm on Kobe Bryant up and artists. In 2020, Norrie claimed that after Jay-Z heard Wayne's dough is what I got, it made Hove go on a long walk and look at himself in the mirror. questioning if he still got it. He said when he rapped or showed me what you got, I had to take a long walk and look at myself in the mirror. And I said, are you sure you still got this? That same month, Lil Wayne appeared on the cover of the December 2006 issue of the Complex Magazine
Starting point is 02:04:41 and sat down for an interview. During the interview, he was asked about Jay-Z's comeback. This is what he had to say. The interviewer asked, quote, how do you feel about Jay's return so far? How many songs have you heard of his? Wayne replied saying, quote, I heard a couple, and I'm going to tell you if I like what he's talking about, but I don't like what he's talking about. And I'm going to tell you why. Because he's saying it like he had to come back like hip hop's dead, all this, like I'm a hip hop artist.
Starting point is 02:05:12 Hey, by the way, just be yapping. Thank you for the $10 donation. Of course, I see you know I'm not going to ignore you. She said act. Wayne isn't performing because the New Orleans City panel didn't pick him The whole city makes the final decision From what the NFL gives
Starting point is 02:05:29 Wayne slash YM is on the list thanks to Jay But New Orleans The city did not pick him and them Wayne still a goal Just be app and I need some proof of that Again we don't know how the decisions made But from what we were told pretty much the majority of the authority
Starting point is 02:05:50 on picking these individuals relied upon Jay-Z. Now, granted, if Jay-Z says he wants, I don't know, Quando Rondo, of course, the NFL's going to be like, no, we don't want that, right? Like, yeah. So the NFL or some other governing body
Starting point is 02:06:08 could still trump what Jay's saying, but they kind of gave him free reign of the entertainment aspect of it, which is the halftime show. So if you're saying that the Super Bowl halftime show was decided by a panel, a New Orleans panel, as you're saying, a city panel, and they didn't pick Lil Wayne,
Starting point is 02:06:29 you got to show me a little bit of proof of that, surety, okay? I'm not saying you a line, and I thank you for the donation, but that sounds wild to me. Yeah, send some proof in, and we'll go over it. Be what you mean it's dead. So that means I'm not rapping the whole time. I've been in it 13 years, Daddy. How can it be dead? You know what I mean? If anything, it's reborn. No I mean? So he's probably having a problem with that. Like this whole aspect of coming back was because it was dead and y'all needed me. Nah, I want him to know that. You left on a good note. You left. This was your house. All the people in the house. All the artists were saying, yo, this is Jay's house. He's bowing out gracefully. We all say he's the best. All the players say, you the coach, you're the best.
Starting point is 02:07:19 We love it. You bowed out. You come back and this is still your house? Nah, we F bitches in your bed already. No, I mean? It's not your house, Daddy. And I just want him to know that. That's from a competitive level.
Starting point is 02:07:31 You know what I mean? That's not no beefing or no hating shit or nothing like that. It's just I'm a rapper. And he always capitalizes on rappers being very confident about themselves. Like when everybody asks him, How do you feel about this person saying this about you? If it's anything about rap, he'll be like, they're supposed to say that. So I'm supposed to feel that you're talking about me when you say rap is dead.
Starting point is 02:07:53 I mean, I've been out here rapping all my f***ing life. What the f*** do you mean? And I'm better than you, Daddy. The interviewer then asked Wayne if he feels he's better than Jay-Z right now, to which he replied saying, quote, who don't? After this interview got out, people started talking about it. about Lil Wayne's comments about Jay-Z and rumors began spreading like wildfire that these two were now publicly beefing. Fast forward months later in April 2007,
Starting point is 02:08:26 Lil Wayne graced the cover of the April 2007 edition of the double XL magazine where he would sit down with them for an interview. In the interview, Wayne would apologize to Jay-Z about his comments in his complex interview in December saying, quote, I'm glad you brought that up because I want to apologize to Jay and his family and friends because I was asked that question and they put it in there like I was just feeling like oh you know what I'm better than Jay oh by the way thank you to Tupac archives for the tenant he says you act please have Martin Screlly come back and play the rest of the OG car to five yo loki I was setting up an interview with him I think he just got out of jail still so um we it's difficult because I don't think he could try
Starting point is 02:09:13 to come to my studio. We were talking about it. We got to figure out like the logistics. So we're probably going to have to either go to where he's at. I don't know if he got to get approval by like his parole or PO or whatever. But yeah, I definitely, I do want to say with Marshall Scrantley. Matter of fact, y'all hit him up. You'll tell him, yo, let's figure it out because we were talking about it.
Starting point is 02:09:35 But I could tell, you know, his situation post-jail was probably preventing it because I was like, Yo, this is our location. Come here. And I think, I don't know if he was allowed to be there. You know what I mean? They came at me like, so you say you're the best? Can you just say that you're better than everybody? Would you say you're better than Jay?
Starting point is 02:09:56 I was like, yeah, I'm better than everybody. Oh, you apologize to Jay? Come on, Wayne. But I like to throw that apology out there because of whatever trouble I caused, I ain't want that to happen. That same month on April 13th, 2007, Lil Wayne dropped his all-time classic mixtape De Drought 3, which included his dough is what I got track. Now the King of Subliminals, Jay-Z, was not going to just sit back and not respond.
Starting point is 02:10:24 That summer on July 3, 2007, Ti dropped his album, Ti versus T-I-P. Track 7, titled Watch What You Say to Me, features Jay-Z, and at the end of his verse, he sent subliminal shots back at Lil-Wain. Hope said that he hears Wayne baiting him into replying. I hear you baiting me lately. I've been doing my best just to say hate and free still. What's what you say to me? Jay-Z then says he's going to take up Lil Wayne on that offer if he keeps throwing subliminals, meaning he's going to engage in this rap battle.
Starting point is 02:11:00 Then Hope said that he's going to replace Birdman as Wayne's father. Sooner or later, I take you up on your offer and put you all in your place like I'm re-placing your father. and says that his DNA is in Wayne's music because Lil Wayne has said that Jay-Z inspired him a lot. After this, the beef rumors were running rampant, but something weird happened later that year. On November 6, 2007, Jay-Z dropped his album American Gangster, and on the track, Hello Brooklyn, 2,000, and on the track, Hello Brooklyn, 2.000. 2.0, Lil Wayne is featured. This marked the first official collaboration between Weezy and Hove. This track was originally just a solo Lil Wayne track, most likely to appear on the Carter 3, but according to Wayne in an MTV interview, he said, quote,
Starting point is 02:11:58 Jay heard the song some type of way. When he heard it, he said, Ask the homie if I can get this. More honored than offended, it was an easy answer. When I asked the question, I told him it wasn't even a question. He's got it. Everybody in the world knows how I feel about Jay. He's the king. Utmost Respect. That same month...
Starting point is 02:12:19 You know, a lot of these relationships, and I think, you know, as you go along in life, you'll learn, you can't look up too much to a nigga. Because you'll always get blinded by your admiration and your respect for them. and you'll start to ignore their blatant disrespect for you. Right? I think that's the same thing that Kanye had with Jay. You know, he's like, yo, my big brother was Biggs brother.
Starting point is 02:12:52 And he was talking about how, the whole time he's talking about how Jay's honing him. You know what I mean? Like, these guys are looking up to Jay, but really, they're just chronicling how Jay's disrespecting him. Jay Z was performing at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City at his American Gangster concert when he would bring out Lil Wayne as the two both performed Hello Brooklyn 2.0 together. After the performance, Wayne and Jay shut down beef rumors when Wayne pointed to Jay calling him the best rapper alive, then pointing to himself and said that he's the next rapper in line. The best rapper alive. the next rap band line. After that, everything seemed cool between the two.
Starting point is 02:13:39 The next year in 2008, Lil Wayne would be on fire as he began the rollout to his album, The Carter 3. On March 13th, 2008, Lil Wayne dropped the first single to the album, a track titled Lollipop. This track would be Wayne's highest charting single up to this point, peaking at number one on the Billboard,
Starting point is 02:14:00 becoming Lil Wayne's first single to reach number one. After this, it was clear that we were officially in the Lil Wayne era, as he was easily the hottest rapper on the planet commercially. Oh, by the way, I seen so much to send the donation. Who was that? Yo, Freak to Gemini. Thank you. By the way, you're going to be the reason I sent out of text right now.
Starting point is 02:14:21 So you think Lil Wayne was denied because of, because he would have brought Nikki Minaj and Drake out to perform like Nikki claims. Yo, his manager text me out. I'm going to ask his manager. So, hey, freak the Gemini. I'm going to get an answer for you. But the reason why I'm doing this is because of you, just to let you know. You just brought up a good point.
Starting point is 02:14:55 I'm writing a message to Wayne's band right now. Did the NFL ever reach out to Wayne about the Super Bowl? Or was he just completely blindsided? That's good to know, right? Because, like, we don't know how this process goes. All right, I hit Wayne's manager. I'll get an answer. Was the best rapper.
Starting point is 02:15:30 On April 23rd, 2008, Lil Wayne dropped the second single from the album called A Millie, to which this track peaked at number six on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. In the summer of 2008, Jay-Z would end up doing his- Furling gaming, you say Nola votes for Kendrick? Where is this thing where y'all are saying New Orleans voted for Kendrick? Like, who the fuck? Who the fuck said that New Orleans voted for Kendrick?
Starting point is 02:16:07 Okay, okay, okay, okay. All right, so, uh, we're getting a little bit more information here, hold on. Y'all like my type in speed. I used to type 85 words per minute in high school. Here's an article. So this is, this article is published on January 10th, 2024. It says here's how the NFL chooses the halftime performers, okay?
Starting point is 02:16:54 Since the Super Bowl halftime show is probably one of the most highest profile spectacles in all sports, after all, when else do musical artists have a captive audience of more than 100 million people? Even if half the TV viewers get snacks and go to the bathroom at halftime, there's still at least 50 million people watching the show. Since in such a big stage, the Super Bowl halftime performer come from a pretty short list. your friend's cover band that plays on Sunday night at local watering hole probably has no chance to get in the gig, although even some of the biggest names of entertainment are responsible for the worst Super Bowl halftime shows.
Starting point is 02:17:32 Probably because only the biggest stars are invited. This is how it works. Duh, but how does the NFL choose who plays? The NFL is a massive entity and the most popular sport in the United States of America. So it takes a lot of care to make the right decision for the Super Bowl halftime show. A journalist who used to cover the Tennessee Titans writes on Kura
Starting point is 02:17:54 that the league considers popularity, music genre, and artists overall performance values. So even though Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones were at the peak of their powers in the late 1960s, they didn't have a broad enough appeal to play at the Super Bowl, not that they would have wanted to play anyway. So the leagues start with popular performers who appeal to many people, as many people as possible, and goes from there. However, it is not the NFL who takes it. chooses who takes the stage.
Starting point is 02:18:21 The league comes up with a short list, but the whole city picks the Super Bowl halftime performers. Okay, let's stop it right there, chat. Let's stop it right there. They're saying that a journalist who used to cover the Tennessee Titans writes on Kura
Starting point is 02:18:37 or Quora, whatever that website is. First and foremost, let me say if we can find, can we find it? I'm trying to find it. again chat it's important to know whatever journalist this is and what they're talking about they might be talking about pre-20201 which is when j z signed a deal i don't need to play this again but i'll play it again it literally said the deal or i'll google it said the deal jz deal
Starting point is 02:19:21 um NFL it said that he was going to be he was going to look then Here's a new partnership. Let's read again. It was entered a partnership of Rock Nation. Okay. The deal, which has been reportedly been in the works for several months, means Rock Nation will now advise. Like, listen, advise on selecting artists for major NFL performances like the Super Bowl.
Starting point is 02:19:54 Okay? Now, we're not saying that Jay-Z made the decision, but shit, he's definitely in the room and advice. that's the point now to this article we're not sure if this is the same method that they're going by so it's important to try to figure out when this Tennessee Titan journalist is talking are they talking after the deal or are they talking before the deal because pretty much what we've heard from everybody who has performed since 2021 they basically almost say it's not just an advisory position.
Starting point is 02:20:37 It's almost like if Jay says you should perform, you're going to perform. And if Jay don't want you to perform, you ain't going to perform. Or it's going to be hard for you to perform. You get what I'm saying? So, yeah, okay. So the league starts with, well, okay, the league starts with popular performers who appeals to as many people as possible and goes from there. However, it's not the NFL that chooses who takes the stage.
Starting point is 02:21:01 The league comes up in the short list, but it's the whole city that picks the the Super Bowl halftime performers. We don't know if that's the case anymore. We don't know. We just don't know. Okay? Atlanta was host of 2019. Again, see?
Starting point is 02:21:15 They're talking about Super Bowl's before 2021. This is before 2020. So if this journalist info is before 2021, yes, that was the case. But now Jay-Z and Rock Nation took it over. So we don't know if that's true. Okay. Anyway. His own remix of this show.
Starting point is 02:21:35 track called a Billy. On June 3rd, 2008, rapper Freaky Ziki dropped his mixtape, blame it on the Henny. On this is a track called Beat Without Bass, featuring Lil Wayne. At the end of his verse, Lil Wayne has a message to quote unquote old-ass rappers, likely referring to Jay-Z, saying that he's like 44 and that he's only 24 years old. On June 10th, 2008, Lil Wayne dropped his album The Carter 3, to which Jay Z repaid the... Wait, how old was Jay Z in 2007? How old was Jay Z in 2007? Oh, he's 38, he wasn't 44. Okay. ...the favor being featured on the track, Mr. Carter, marking their second collab. On Jay's verse, he essentially says that he's passing the torch to Lil Wayne when he refers to... to Wayne as his hair to the throne.
Starting point is 02:22:41 If we take a look at the definition of hair, it says that it's a person inheriting or continuing the legacy of a predecessor. On the outro, Lil Wayne quotes lyrics from his favorite song of all time, Lucky Me, off of Jay-Z's album In My Lifetime Volume 1. This album would go on both feet never needs in the dirt And I swear to everything when I lead to surf
Starting point is 02:23:15 It's going to be on both feet never needs in the dirt This album would go on to sell over one million copies in the first week Going number one on the Billboard charts Making history as one of the very few rap albums To achieve one million plus copies sold in the first week By the way Ryan, thank you for the 10th, he says, you Dame Dash, dipset, DMX, Drake, Lil Wayne, Nas, etc.
Starting point is 02:23:40 All talk shit about Hove. Then they need him after. Hove said y'all niggies going to learn to respect the king. Don't be the next contestant on the Summers' jam screen. Yeah, we'll get to what, because Memphis Bleak basically put something up, basically saying, it was like an old J-quote saying,
Starting point is 02:23:59 anytime niggies got a problem with me, it's always about what I didn't do for them. It's never what I did to them. week, Lil Wayne just completely took over the rap game with this album, putting rappers on notice as he had the game in a chokehold. A couple of weeks later on June 23, 2008, Lil Wayne did an interview with Rolling Stone. When they asked him how it felt to be called Jay-Z's hair on Mr. Carter, Wayne replied saying, quote, that line right there was hard. Unbelievable.
Starting point is 02:24:31 I didn't realize it at first. My homie had to tell me, you know what he said, right? I didn't even get it. I was like, why is he saying air? Is he just talking about the air? But I'm smart enough to know that he's smart enough not to just be talking about the air. I felt real dumb, but then I felt so good. It was an incredible compliment. On July 14th, 2008, Lil Wayne did an interview with People magazine where he would speak on the four albums that changed his life. One of them being Jay-Z's In My Lifetime Volume 1. Wayne spoke about the same. song Lucky Me, which we discussed earlier, saying, quote, Lucky Me is my favorite song of all. Period. I actually have Lucky Me tattooed on my neck and I have a verse of that song tattooed on my leg.
Starting point is 02:25:20 Now, Lil Wayne does in fact have Lucky Me tattooed on his neck and lyrics on his leg. That year in 2008, Ti was gearing up to drop his album Paper Trail. On September 6th, 2008, T.I. and Jay Z dropped the track Swag Like Us, to which they recruited Kanye and Lil Wayne to be featured. This track was originally intended to appear on both T.I's album Paper Trail and Jay Z's upcoming album Blueprint 3, but only ended up being on TI's album. That same month, Jay Z graced the cover of Vibe Magazine, where he sat down for an interview, and during the interview, he spoke on Lil Wayne being next in line, saying, quote, you should embrace the next generation. In hip hop, you always fight the next person coming in because the person wants your spot. But as a person, as a competitor, that's only natural.
Starting point is 02:26:15 There was a time Kobe was like, I think I could take Mike. I admire that in a way. The public has Lil Wayne next in line. That's what the public says, so why not? The next month on October 27, 2008, Lil Wayne and Jay-Z were both co-headlining Power 105. 1's powerhouse in East Rutherford, New Jersey, but Lil Wayne did not end up showing up to the show on time after problems with a metal detector, so they had to perform their sets separately. This mega headline was now ruined, and to boot, Wayne's set was reportedly discombobulated and spotty. A couple of months later on February 8, 2009, the 51st annual Grammys were held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, where Lil Wayne and Jay,
Starting point is 02:27:03 would perform Swagga like us together and they won a Grammy for that track under the best rap performance by a duo or group category on September 8th 2009. Peter Stone, thank you for the time, brother, but you said you clearly have a narrative to push. The article is telling you what they do, but you want to do a spin because it's not fitting what you were saying. The stream is some weird J. Hate. No, it's not.
Starting point is 02:27:29 the article is sourcing a journalist that is speaking about how Super Bowl performers were picked from an era before Jay-Z was ever involved. Again, unless they're telling us that's what happened from 2021 on, again, the NFL did a random deal. They never did this deal with no one else. They did a random deal with Jay-Z to stop players from kneeling and they gave him an advisory position and basically made him like almost
Starting point is 02:28:06 the person that was in charge of all of the entertainment like performances in the NFL. So unless any journalists could tell me 2021 on, I don't think you telling me how it worked in 2015 applies to Jay-Z at all because there was no position. of what Jay-Z is doing. So it's not an anti-J-Z thing. It's like, yeah, I read the article, but nowhere in the article actually said that their information came from
Starting point is 02:28:40 2021 on when Jay-Z is involved. Jay-Z dropped his album, The Blueprint 3, which would sell 476,000 copies in the first week, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200. On two of the tracks, he shouts out Lou Wayne, On the track, D-O-A, Death of Autotune, he says that he's going to send this track to the mixtape Weezy.
Starting point is 02:29:08 On the track, A Star is Born, he says that he applauds Lil Wayne, and if he keeps going, he'll pass the torch to him. After this is when their relationship would begin to crumble. After this album dropped, MTV would name Jay-Z the hottest MC in the game. On October 19th, 2009, Birdman was doing an interview, and when he was asked about Jay-Z being named MTV's hottest MC, this is what he had to say about it. Jay-Z just got voted number one by MTV, number one MC. What do you make of that?
Starting point is 02:29:50 I don't think he's the number one MC. Wayne the best, he do the most, and he make the most money. Yeah. I don't think in the business make more money than us. Fair enough.
Starting point is 02:29:59 And so how could you be the best if you're going to make the best money, the most money? And you don't do the most. Lyrically, come on, man, be for real, man. Can't nobody
Starting point is 02:30:08 whewan us. And to me, if you're number one and you ain't getting no money, it don't mean nothing. You hear me? So, but if you're number one
Starting point is 02:30:15 and you're making money to me, who's making the most money? That's number one to me. All that rap shit. You know what? They got cold rappers you never even heard. Now,
Starting point is 02:30:24 Initially, Jay-Z did not respond to Birdman's comments. And on October 31st, 2009, Lil Wyn dropped his mixtape, No Ceilings, to which he would rap over the beat to Jay-Z's tracks, Death of Autotune, and run this town. In January 2010, Jay-Z sat down with Angie Martinez at Hot 97 for an interview. Angie asked Hove what he thinks about Birdman's comments, to which he responded saying this. How does Jay feel about baby from cash money constantly saying Weezy is more lyrical
Starting point is 02:30:58 and has more money than Jay-Z? You know, being lyrical is just a matter of opinion. It's who you like. So, you know, that's his opinion. Oh, as money, I mean, you know, that's a little more
Starting point is 02:31:13 factual. Right, you can, we can determine that. Right, we would have to see your bank accounts and things of this. That's no problem. But they're going to close put it up if he's that confident you know I give him a little glimpse it's crazy I came a little glimpse check that out cut it out knock it off but as far as you know being lyrical I mean that's that's from ones you know that's for the viewers uh that's everybody that's everybody that crystallizes Jay Z right there that just contextualizes it
Starting point is 02:31:52 obviously you know he's an amazing artist and probably one of the best not probably one of best he's one of the best like one of like three but the reason why he's a great businessman even he knows even as great as he is musically that's subjective when it comes to business that ain't subjective right so if he believes that then i respect that you know that's his guy so he's probably right with his guy so now i don't have no problems with that i have no problems with nobody it's my positive i want this to be my most positive be on with no problems. Beyonce and Jay-Z earned a hundred and twenty-two million becoming the highest earning. Right after that. Right after that. Right after that. So I'm saying, black and white is ink, baby.
Starting point is 02:32:42 I just, I'm just having fun. Fast forward to March of 2010, Jay-Z was on his Blueprint 3 tour with GZ at a show in Madison Square Garden, where GZ would bring out Drake, Nikki Minaj, and Lil Wayne. Now, unfortunately, just a couple of days after this concert, on March 8, 2010, Lil Wayne was sentenced to a one-year jail sentence after pleading guilty to possession of a gun, which stemmed from a July 2007 arrest when a loaded 40-cali-semi-automatic gun was found on his tour bus. Lil Wayne would begin his one-year jail sentence in Rikers Island jail with a possible shortened sentence of eight months if he has good behavior. During this time, Lil Wayne's Young Money protege, Drake, would take over the rap game, releasing his debut album Thank Me Later in June of 2010, which would sell over 400,000 copies in the
Starting point is 02:33:41 first week, and after this, it was clear that Drake was up next. In July of 2010, Drake did an interview with Tim Westwood, where he would reveal that him and Lil Wayne were planning on dropping a collab album. Lil Wayne would be released in November of 2010 just eight months after being sentenced. Now, we're going to get into when Birdman and Wayne try to wake up the whole money thing again. That same month, Kanye West and Jay-Z would announce that they were dropping a collaboration album called Watch the Throne, to which the production began in November of 2010. In January of 2011, Drake would do another interview with Tim Westwood where he would accuse
Starting point is 02:34:25 Kanye West and Jay-Z of stealing his and Lil Wayne's idea of a collaboration album. I mean, I'd like, I'd, you know, that, we still gotta do that album. Yes, yes, she's still going through that album. There's some other guys are coming out of that album too. There's two other guys that are coming out of together. Two other rappers that are coming out with an album together. I don't know where they got that idea, but. That same month, Jay-Z and Kanye West would begin the roll out for the collab album, Watch the Throne.
Starting point is 02:34:55 On January 11th, 2011, they dropped the first single on the album titled Ham. And on his verse, Jay-Z would send shots at Birdman for saying that Lil Wayne has more money than him in his interview. He directly mentions Bird name's nickname Baby and says that they don't even have as much money as his wife, Beyonce. Say. Lil Wayne of course, real one, you got baby money. Keep it real with his niggins ain't got my lady money.
Starting point is 02:35:24 Lil Wayne, of course, heard this, so on August 29th, 2011, Lil Wayne dropped his album The Carter 4. And on the track, It's Good featuring Drake and Jada Kiss, on his verse, Wayne responded to Jay-Z. Weezy directly references Hobbes' Baby Money Bar from Ham, then he threatens to kidnap beyond and take out Jay-Z. Talk about baby money. I got your baby money. Kidnap your b-kit-that how much you love your lady money.
Starting point is 02:35:56 Jay-Z would later speak on this in his Breakfast Club interview in 2013. How close to you, how close were you to really spanking Wayne when he threw that shot at the wife? No, it was, it was all right. It's part of, it's part of, you know, the sport and the competition. I didn't take it serious. I didn't view it as a threat, but I didn't take it as a real threat. I took it as a flip of a line. Lil Wayne would also do an interview later in 2011 with Sway,
Starting point is 02:36:27 where he would speak on Jay-Z's diss on him. You ask him about the Jay-Z line? I wouldn't ask him about a Jay-Z line because he's not Jay-Z. Is that something you would react to as an MC? Actually, the subject that he's talking about in that line, I can't box with the guard with that. You know what I mean? And I'll be the first one to tell you that.
Starting point is 02:36:46 Given my wit and the type of person I am, I capitalize and I'll play off of it. Fast forward to January 2012, Birdman did an interview with the Big Boys neighborhood where he would speak on the issues between himself and Jay-Z. Is there an issue with you and Jay-Z? Like, Jay-Z said something in the record, Ham. He was saying, you know, you ain't got baby money, you spending baby money. Is there an issue? Not with me, but I don't know how to.
Starting point is 02:37:14 he's feeling but we just don't we do you know i ain't we ain't tripping he's spending baby money that's how we live the next month on february 12th 2012 ymcmcmb hosted a pre-party for the grammies and during this little wing got on the mic to spit a few bars where he would dis j z and Kanye when he directly mentions watch the throne and other than that i ain't really got anything else to say but uh i met a bad red I took the bigh home I asked her what she want to watch She said surely not the throne I haven't seen this
Starting point is 02:37:58 Yo, Berman looked like a proud father man Don't up that blood is on It's not the drum Drop mic moment Look at me like me Oh shit I just realized drink was here too And his fam JZ would speak God damn it
Starting point is 02:38:31 Where he would reference to spit a few bars Where's Nicky? And other than that, I ain't really got enough. I know Drake is here. Where's Nikki? I'm safe, but, uh, I met a bad red bomb. I took the... Who's this nigga right here?
Starting point is 02:38:50 Is this a little twist? Oh, shit. Huh? I asked her what she want to... I forgot this girl's name. What was this girl's name again? Why, she said, surely not the drum. Nah, we ain't stand on business.
Starting point is 02:39:15 The next year, on July 4th. 2013, Jay-Z dropped his album Magna Carter Holy Grail. And on the track La Familia, he responded to Wayne saying he was going to kidnap Beyonce, telling him good luck on trying to kidnap her. After this, the beef would begin to die down as Wayne never responded to these lines. The next year, Lil Wayne was gearing up to drop the fifth installment of the Carter series. On May 15th, 2014, Lowell Wayne dropped what would have been the second single on the album, a track called Doucet. Now if you know, Doucet was the liquor brand Jay-Z was endorsing at the time, having stake in the company. On the intro to the track, Wayne shouts out Jay-Z.
Starting point is 02:40:09 Oh, what's your butt? On July 3rd, 2014, Lil Wayne did an interview with MTV where he would explain why he shouted out Jay-Z on the track, saying, We was just on that do say heavy. I don't write none of my music. I don't write it down. So I just go in there and say whatever come to my mind. So what came to my mind that night was what was on my mind that night. The Carter 5 would end up being delayed due to Wayne going through troubles with cash money,
Starting point is 02:40:39 which is for a whole separate video. The next year in 2015, Lil Wayne and Jay-Z would partner exclusively to drop his next album called the Free Weezy album, exclusively on title, which was the streaming service that Jay-Z was endorsing with stake in the company. The next year, in November 2016, Lowe Wayne was performing his track, I'm Me, at the Camp Flognaw music festival, where he would change the lyrics saying he's a Rockefeller millionaire instead of cash money millionaire. On April 10th, 2017, Lowean was performing at Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania, and Wayne would once again shout out Jay-Z.
Starting point is 02:41:27 This time he announced that he was a member of the team while throwing up The Rock. Is it cool? I just say, it's the rock. You don't remember that team now. We talk about that later though, but uh. The next year on September 28th, 2018, Lil Wayne finally would drop his album The Carter 5 after an ongoing legal battle with cash money. In December of that year, Lil Wayne took to stage during a concert in Chicago to thank Jay Z for helping him through the tough times he was facing over the past couple of years. Jay Z helped him through a $7 million tax debt in 2011 and $6.8 million in 2012, totaling to over $5,000.
Starting point is 02:42:19 14.1 million dollars in taxes owed. Wayne thanks Jay-Z and Swiss beats for helping him with taxes and production when he was really down. As people like Jay-Z, he helped me when I was really, really, really down. Really, really, really down. There's people like Swiss beats that's gonna send me every beat he'd make and want me to rap on every single one until I got my situation. situation straight. He don't want me to talk about it, don't want me to tell nobody, Jay don't want me to tell nobody, that man helped me with my tax. These are real friends, y'all. Shout out to Jay, shout out to my ex-s-s-smith, shout out to my brother, chance. New Z. Your news, me?
Starting point is 02:43:08 After that, Lil Wayne would go on to praise Jay-Z on podcasts, even suggesting that if any rapper were to become president, it should be Jay-Z. What rapper should run for president? If there was a rapper that would, that should ever run for president, I believe that rapper would easily, or should easily be Jay-Z. Plain and simple. I don't even think there's a why that should come with that. After that, plain and simple. I would love to see B is the first lady.
Starting point is 02:43:41 Like, plain and simple. Just another carter in the White House. So there you have it. The full timeline of the little one. versus Jay-Z. Not really a serious beef, but a nice sparring match as the two competed for that number one spot
Starting point is 02:43:59 in hip-hop. Yeah, I ain't gonna lie, man. Sluid to Jay-Z, man. Classic snake. We'll fuck with it. Classic motherfucking snake, man. Anyway, there's a few other people
Starting point is 02:44:12 that, you know, try to jump in and, you know, it was kind of interesting. First of all, because somebody tell me So allegedly You know It's being said that Jack

But Jack Dorsey and Drake. Now, granted, if you look up Jack Dorsey and Jay-Z, you're going to see tons of pictures of them just like chilling.
Starting point is 02:47:18 Jack Dorsey back here. Jack Dorsey in the back. Jay right here. Right here. Like, they're super cool. Jack Dorsey here. Jay's right here. This is both of them right here.
Starting point is 02:47:38 Yeah, like, that's definitely, look, both of them right here, like Jay fucks with him, but he hates the fuck out of Drake, bro. Hates the fuck out of Drake. So what did, what did Drake do to Jack Dorsey? We can't really figure it out. I don't think he's married, but anyway, no matter. Okay. Regardless, did y'all see Hurricane Chris Chalman on the whole matter?
Starting point is 02:48:19 Watch us. So now you niggas understand it, huh? Same motherfucking shit that I was just saying 50 sending in Shreveport. Now it's happening in New Orleans on a bigger scale so people like Master P come in on it. You know, so so now everybody understands. I just made this same fucking statement. But I guess, you know, because I ain't my brother, motherfuckers ain't get it. Well, I'm glad it's going down like it's going down.
Starting point is 02:48:40 God told me to just sit back. Yeah, I got Hurricane Chris started, man. If only 50 it's is booked him for that human harmony shit, man. This nigga crashing out. The ass was going to be open. It don't matter whether you small or big. It don't matter whether you large. It don't matter whether you're tiny.
Starting point is 02:48:57 Hormich is old. Respect is old. You're supposed to pay respect to the motherfuckers that lay the foundation before you. I wouldn't give a damn what your organization is. I wouldn't give it down how much money you spent. I wouldn't give a damn what you did. When you walk into a house,
Starting point is 02:49:11 you speak to everybody who live in their house and you pay respect to everybody who live in their house. I'm from the South. Now, wherever you're from, you go do what you do, wherever you go do it. But when you come to the South, y'all got to show more respect in this, bro. We got our own culture here. Niggas coming down here laughing, playing games, thinking they just going to use their money and take over everything.
Starting point is 02:49:33 It ain't going down like that. We're going back to that old fucking law. You niggas stepping on turf, going, going, going, going, going, go, go, go, go and do what you're supposed to do. Or you're going to pack your shit up and get the fuck on someone. All the nice guys got shit out of the one of the fuck being nice. Fuck trying to cop deuces. Take back every nice word I said to you, niggas. Get your fucking mind.
Starting point is 02:49:50 right or we gonna make me just get their mind right how about that now uh slim jimmy he got in the comments and said bra ain't no way you so reaching and hurricane chris says mind your fucking business unless you want to see these hands bro oh god what's popping so hurricane chris ready to you know fight over it slim jimmy said you don't want no smoke okay this is a bum bullshit right here, man. Anyway, Master P, he chimed in as well. Master P chimed in. I might have read this yesterday.
Starting point is 02:50:30 But he said, yo, listen, salute to Kendrick Lamar for performing at the NFL halftime show at Super Bowl 59. Well deserved. He's one of the hottest musical artists out now in the world, and he has one of the biggest songs out right now. As an ambassador of entertainment in the city of New Orleans, I have to agree with the fans that Loe Wayne should have been a part of
Starting point is 02:50:50 celebration as well he's one of the greatest hip-hop artists alive still relevant and he's a new orleans native let's not miss a cultural moment in the south life is too short we give we have to give this we have to give our legends or flowers while they're still here change starts with us i agree with that as well again i think my compromise for that because i understand the kensic point but you could have done a co-headliner why not do a co-headliner Kendrick Kendrick Master P and um kendrick Master P and low Ate right like you could have done a co-headliner so it doesn't it doesn't have to be one or the other right so that's my thoughts on that uh regardless
Starting point is 02:51:43 regardless let me see regardless did you see t dE punch TDE punch TDE punch TDE punch immediately started trolling. He at MacMain in one of these posts, and he basically, let me see. He says, yo, yo, right here. He says, yo, MacMaine, what's up? You know, he's trying to, like, you know, trying to, like, fuck with him.
Starting point is 02:52:19 He's trying to, like, pick at, you know, young money artists at this point. And by the way, you look at my nigga, Waino. Waino says, yo, this nigga's looking at the timeline like this today. Now, if you don't know what this means, Michael Rubin has said that the thing he don't like about black communities, he don't like about black culture the most, is that black people hate on black people the most. And I guess now people are saying, well, niggis is hating on Jay-Z and hating on Kendrick, I guess.
Starting point is 02:52:49 So y'all are proving this guy right. Like black people hate black people more than other people, which I still think it's just not his place anyway. but it's a funny meme it's a funny meme okay all right let me see what other fall out or fall
Starting point is 02:53:11 whether situation has kind of came out of this here's a clip of Wayne discussing his desire to perform at the Super Bowl would you do to suppose good I got to ask
Starting point is 02:53:31 I'm just asking it's a question Wayne I don't know the answer but I got to ask you of course the Super Bowl is in New Orleans, I think it's in 2025 or something like that. Is he doing it? I'm not sure. Man, come on, man.
Starting point is 02:53:44 Say it, where? I'm not sure what shit. No, I don't, I can, I would not lie to you. I have not got to call it. What do you do to suppose? Got a call. Hey, Jay, but I'm on. I'm chemical folk.
Starting point is 02:53:56 But we all praying, you know, we're praying. We're keeping our fingers crossed. I'm working hard. I'm going to make sure this next album and everything I do is killer. So I'm going to make it very hard for them. I want to just make it hard for them. Not to highlight the boy. Hey, Jay.
Starting point is 02:54:09 But I'm on. I'm chemical folk. Jay. But we are. Okay. Some people chime in. They said, listen, I'm not hating on Kendrick hosting the Super Bowl. He's definitely big enough artists.
Starting point is 02:54:19 He deserves it with enough hits. But nobody should be headlined in the New Orleans over Wayne. No fucking body. Somebody says, the internet is an uproar and gets everyone crying and validates why Kendrick is the right person to perform in the halftime Super Bowl in 2025. These folks know business. I'll be here for not like us performance. History is made.
Starting point is 02:54:43 What else? Sorry. All right. All right. Somebody else says, everyone knows I'm a Drake fan, but one thing about Kendrick Lamar is love for black American art. He'll put on a show that'll certainly pay respects to New Orleans and its culture.
Starting point is 02:55:10 I think everyone can relax. um Ethan De Niro says I'm happy he's Kendrick but yeah but still yeah feel like a missed opportunity and then somebody says low end should definitely have been picked to performing Super Bowl he's literally from New Orleans and a rap legend hmm okay all right by the way and the Lee chopper is clearing up he said he so uh he said look at this I'm I'm just gonna say say it, uh, I'm, I'm gay. That's it, that's all you want to say? What, baby? We knew that.
Starting point is 02:56:08 Right. We already knew that. Wait, you guys don't want to talk about me being gay? Maybe we've been talking about that for years. We all knew that. We all talked about it. We all knew. Yeah, we wait. Yo, nah, this is exactly, hey, the funny thing is, I think these rappers been playing with the zesty shit so much. Niggas already thought you I was getting. You can say something, man. We don't rush nobody.
Starting point is 02:56:31 Come out. You come out when you want to. That's fine. That's fine. You all right. You all right. We know that. Really?
Starting point is 02:56:36 Baby, we knew back when you was a little boy. We knew. So, uh... So, uh... So, An Lee Chop is saying that he never said he was gay. And he's saying with a new song, he has a new project coming out. Anyway, whatever, man. Whatever.
Starting point is 02:56:53 Any more fallout from this shit? There's obviously a Birdman angle here. I think the angle we might not... We should probably look into is Nikki Minaj, Meg the Stallion, Rock Nation. That's where the shit is. She's just... So you get shot in one and then and you get shot in two. Now that leaves zero.
Starting point is 02:57:25 So how are you talking two days late? If you got, do you know what? Have you ever been shot? Have you... I'm not. I'm married to. Oh. Okay
Starting point is 02:57:36 I know people that have been shot I know people like that that's you okay now let me tell you what the fuck don't let me tell you what the fuck don't happen two days after a bitch get shot in two hoops
Starting point is 02:57:50 uh talking on on socials first of all emotionally even emotionally you just got shot the girl Nikki's cold
Starting point is 02:58:07 how are you laughing saying somebody got shot shot like that. No. But, however, the point is, you know what really grinded my fucking gears, guys? What grinded my gears was when doodoo on the beats. They or them, I've never met in my life.
Starting point is 02:58:29 She's talking about juju on the beats. God on Twitter started bragging about him not clearing a beat for Nicky Minaj. so while people were acting unbothered on socials and while Desiree Perez was doing the bots oh my god we have screenshots of the YouTube bots it's crazy leo are if leo you better out bit by the way east side guy think of the 20 says who says Wayne won't perform with kendry they got a song together
Starting point is 02:59:00 yeah that's not happened fuck that song together and fuck the super bowl Drake has made Liluane tens of millions of dollars No, no, no, no. You're not being seen on stage with Kendrick.
Starting point is 02:59:19 Don't, Leo, don't play with me, naga. I hope you ain't up around that company no more right now because, yeah. And so no, wait, hold on, Joe. Hold on, hold on, hold on, Joe, hold on, Joe, hold on, hold on. Between the YouTube bots
Starting point is 02:59:34 and the Twitter ad, and um and um and um the paid for tictox and the paid for tweets to the point where people got their little two hundred fifty dollars for their tweet to say something bad about niki menage and then the next day was like bitch yeah i'm going right i'm listening to book so i don't know why any body of that and I'm not talking about any rapper, I'm talking about a company or companies. Why would they want to prove everything I've been saying is true? Because what happens is if you already make a smear campaign to market and tell people somebody is quote unquote crazy, then you are training them not to believe whatever this person says.
Starting point is 03:00:32 So why would do-do on the beats that night come out like a dummy on the beats and prove my point? And you know what the barbs do? Oh, once one point Nikki say has been proven, oh, they will go back for the last 50 years and research some shit. And they will realize, oh, wow, they've been doing this, they've been doing that, they've been doing this. And now you ask yourself why. So if you think this is an issue between two rappers, you're wrong. This is a dialogue between the machine and a bunch of different machines having to come together constantly. Using different people.
Starting point is 03:01:24 When one fails, let's go somewhere else and try to. It never works. But that's the point that I wanted the world to see and that it's going to be sympathy again. It's going to be nonsense again. And nobody will ever respect that in rap. What's pop, y'all? In 2018, on Drake's Talk Up track on his Scorpion album, Jay-Z would rap. I'm what Meach should have been.
Starting point is 03:01:53 I'm what Supreme didn't become. If Alpo didn't snitch, niggies would be like young. I got your president tweeting, I won't even meet with him. Y'all killed X and let Zimmerman live. Sh, streets is done. What if I told you that the streets was done nearly two decades prior, involving Jay-Z himself, and an individual he worked and still works closely with? If you look up Desiree Perez, there's an article on Hits Daily Double in 2016,
Starting point is 03:02:18 where they describe her saying, but after the defection of a string of executives, title has its third CEO, who exactly is orchestrating these five. star exclusive artist plays. Sources behind the scenes say that person is Desiree Perez, a trusted close associate of Jay-Z for nearly 20 years who has a long track record running SC Enterprises. And with her husband, O.G. Juan Perez runs Rock Nation sports as well. Perez is known for being a fiercely tough negotiator and rabid numbers cruncher and has a
Starting point is 03:02:50 history and street rep that even Empire's own cookie wouldn't challenge. Perez is a boss. Simply put, insiders point out that she negotiated the Beyonce Formation Stadium Tour and had a strong hand in the Rihanna Samsung deal as well. Impressive. Perez is part of the Hova Circle of Influence that includes her husband, Jay Brown, Taiti Smith, Shaka Pilgrim, and Jana Fleischman. This is the collective running the entire operation of not just Rock Nation and its various wings of management, label operations, and publishing, but the forces behind the operation of title itself. couple of missing piece so it's kind of interesting how rock nation has kind of fell into um like
Starting point is 03:03:31 this they're like the villains of the music industry because even though you know technically black owned rock nation employs a lot of the um same type of tactics that you would expect a non-cultural entity to do this is to the full bio of desiree Perez and i don't know if you really want to say street rep, but I've been eyeing on making this video for the past two or three weeks until 6'9 had to come out and really bring to a larger scale the reports that Desire Perez, who's the current CEO of Rock Nation, was a government mole and informant back in the mid-90s. This isn't some new information, but it is the biggest scale it's ever blown up on, especially within hip-hop. In a daily news article from 2014 is when I first remember it being
Starting point is 03:04:24 And the article wasn't even about anything music related. It was about Alex Rodriguez suspension from Major League Baseball due to doping and how Desiree Perez was advising him through what to do afterwards. The headline of the article was Alex Rodriguez was set to quit baseball until former drug mole and ex-convict, Desire Perez convinced the Yankee slugger to fight MLB over PED suspension. In the article it talks about how A-Rod was considering retiring and cutting a settlement with the MLB so he could just go away quietly after being caught through a test.
Starting point is 03:05:02 He spoke with the president of the Yankees to explore an exit strategy, but he told him that his problem was with the MLB, not the Yankees. And Desiree Perez came in and forced him back on the team, according to a source. When Levine declined, telling Rodriguez that his problem was with MLB and not the team, Perez confronted Arad with demands to return to the field, according to one source familiar with the strategy. This is when Desiree Perez hijacked the process and forced him back on the team, the source said.
Starting point is 03:05:30 At one point, after Rodriguez missed a minor league rehab game because of a tight quad and the Yankees asked him to return to New York for an MRI, Perez helped locate a doctor to review the test and find there was no strain, according to the source. The plan backfired when SNY and the news reported that the orthopedist, Dr. Michael Gross, had been disciplined by the New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners for a few. failing to adequately ensure proper patient treatment involving the prescribing of hormones, including steroids. This was her ploy to expose the Yankees and take retirement out of Alex's hands, the source
Starting point is 03:06:06 said. She thought she had a gotcha moment when Gross said the MRI didn't indicate a strain. Despite the goof, A-Rod was apparently still taken to Perez's advice on August 2nd. After smacking a home run in Trenton during his minor league rehab assignment, Rodriguez told the media that the Yankees and MLB were conspiring to push him out of baseball. I think that's the pink elephant in the room, said Rodriguez, claiming people are finding creative ways to cancel his contract. Rodriguez's attorneys knew immediately that his attack would derail the diplomacy required
Starting point is 03:06:38 for a settlement. A day later, overtures from the Rodriguez camp were rebuffed by baseball officials. Desire Perez was basically trying to go around the MLB to try and get Alex Rodriguez back on the field. This is clearly not a good idea when you've been busted for performance-enhancing drugs and trying to negotiate a settlement deal with the MLB themselves for your multi-million dollar contract. So how did following Perez advice work out for A-Rod in this situation?
Starting point is 03:07:06 Two days later, Commissioner Bud Selig hit Rodriguez with a 211-gain ban. They wanted to embarrass the Yankees, one source said. Cost them money. That dynamic. That is why Desiree Perez gave an ultimatum to A-Rod. That is why they wanted the Yankees to play him. The result was an all-out assault on the Yankees, MLB and Selig, Bosch, the Yankees' doctor, the arbitrator that would hear Rodriguez's appeal of the suspension, the media,
Starting point is 03:07:32 and anyone else they got in the way. At one point, Arod's supporters showed up at his arbitration hearing on Park Avenue, with signs comparing Levine to the devil. There were accusations denied by Levine that his contract for a bonus if he could get the Yankees out from Arod's massive deal. Scratched the commissioner's eyes out and kicked the Yankees in the shin, is how Rodriguez lawyer David Cornwell, speaking at Villanova's sports law symposium, described the strategy that led to Rodriguez's suspension for the entire 2014 season.
Starting point is 03:08:03 Nothing was more important than the effort to smear, intimidate, and outspend Bosch. Discrediting the witness who knew the most about Arod's doping was a top priority and the best ammunition was to call him out for having been forced to cooperate with authorities. Bosch had his back against the wall and had no chance but to flip against his friend. It was a position Perez knew all too well. Taking Desiree Perez advice got him the longest suspension in the history of Major League Baseball and the loss of over $20 million in base salary for that 2014 season. The Bosch that they're referring to is Anthony Bosch, who was the owner of Biogenesis.
Starting point is 03:08:40 That was a massive scandal. It was basically an anti-aging clinic, but it really supplied performance enhancing drugs to not only professional baseball players, but anybody that wanted him. He himself was under fire after a 2013 article in the Miami New Times, where a former employee gave them documents that showed a massive list of professional athletes who were clients like Ryan Braun, Nelson Cruz, and of course Alex Rodriguez. But the paper didn't want to give the proof to MLB. And what happened was that both the MLB and the Florida Department of Health took legal action against the
Starting point is 03:09:17 against Anthony Bosch in order to get them to basically tell the people he worked with. And he agreed to work with them to have his name removed from the lawsuit. And in the end, he pled guilty to one charge of conspiracy to distribute testosterone. And he got sentenced to four years. But they cut a sentence down by 16 months for his cooperation with the MLB and giving them all the decoded nicknames they had, the message is explaining everything they needed. And this was the same period of time, Desiret Perez, was starting Rock Nation Sports.
Starting point is 03:09:49 But let's get into what the article says about her snitching. It says, but multiple sources told the daily news that Arod's last chance for a dignified exit ended when he turned to Desiree Perez, a Manhattan nightclub manager with a lengthy criminal record and close links to hip-hop vocal Jay-Z. While Perez is not an employee, officer, or agent of Jay-Z's new agency, Rock Nation Sports, sources say she is a major behind-the-scenes influence. directly involved with the athletes, one baseball insider said, she has a lot of power. Perez is also a convicted felon, with a long and wild history as a DEA cooperating witness
Starting point is 03:10:25 and then a fugitive. She wore wires to meet with major cocaine traffickers, according to federal court transcripts obtained by the Daily News. Perez declined numerous interview requests and did not respond to questions submitted to her attorneys about her past. If you never heard about this, it's sort of like getting hit so hard, your head is just spinning. Your entire reality shakes up a bit. You get dizzy vision. How the hell is Jay-Z so close with an individual like this that is reported to have broken one of the most sacred codes that Jay-Z claims he holds? Dame Dash was even frightened by it. In an interview with Sway, he said, this is the one time that the paper did scare me. I read about his affiliation with an informant,
Starting point is 03:11:07 that he's in business with certain people. It's tricky for me to say, but just based on where I'm I can't have nothing to do with that. There's no more business being done with me and him until I understand the situation. And court records were obtained by the newspaper and they said as follows. Perez was a 26 year old mother of young children in 1994 when she was arrested in New York for possession with intent to distribute 35 kilograms of cocaine. Damn! According to court records reviewed by the news. Federal authorities charged she was part of a drug conspiracy stretching from New York to Florida to Puerto Rico. She and co-defendant Amari
Starting point is 03:11:44 Lopez faced at least 10 years in prison. Lopez was supposedly one of at least three men to marry Perez since the late 1980s. But Perez cooperated in return for telling the DEA everything and putting herself at substantial risk, as one prosecutor put it, she was sentenced to 30 months in a military-style boot camp program in 1995. Basically, they sent her to the adult version of the Girl Scout. Many of the records in Perez's case were sealed soon after her arrest. But one transcript from a June 11th, 1996 court hearing obtained by the news showed the feds were pleased with their star moat. The defendant has really worked closely with these agents, Assistant U.S. Attorney
Starting point is 03:12:26 Lawrence Bardfeld told the judge that date, arguing to keep Perez out of jail. Miami-based defense attorney Alan Ross told the judge that his client wore a wire on no less than the four or five occasions when she's been down there in Puerto Rico. And I think the court knows from its experience that you just can't do anything more dangerous than wear a wire and go into an undercover meeting in Puerto Rico with a known violator, one who's suspected of or being investigated for a murder case down there. The transcript describes how a mutual regard and respect developed between Perez and the DEA special agent she worked with to bust Colombians moving cocaine shipments of 50 to 100 kilograms.
Starting point is 03:13:04 She has gone the extra mile, an extra gold store, said Ross, adding that he believed the defendant was fully rehabilitated. Perez was released that July and placed on five years of supervised release. She began working at night spots in Miami Beach and was scheduled to meet her probation officer at one of them, Club Onyx, when she skipped town without notice in early August 1997. The fugitive resurfaced nine months later in Brooklyn, where she was arrested on March 5, 1998. Rez was charged with grand larceny, criminal use of drug paraphernalia, and criminal possession of a firearm.
Starting point is 03:13:41 Her probation was revoked and she was sentenced to nine months in prison. Just nine months? And three years of supervised release. Ah, they cut her a pretty nice deal. A DEA special agent from the case contacted by the news declined to comment. Isn't that one hell of a story? In the excerpt it talks about a bunch of her marriages, which I don't think a single one of them you could say was normal. The first man she got married to was Joelle Reynoso in 1988,
Starting point is 03:14:11 and she had two children with him. And their marriage ended with his death in 1995 when he died in a parachuting accident in Long Island, I should say. This information was brought to light in a separate New York Post article from August of 2004. The topic of the article is Desiree wanted to get married, but she went to get the license and they said she was already married to two other individuals. And she said she had no idea who the hell they were. What made me scratch my head, though, is that Amari Gonzalez, as we saw earlier, was her co-defendant in that case.
Starting point is 03:14:46 And this is the guy she was doing the crime with in 1994 while she was married to her original husband, a year before her husband died. And it's also the same guy she married in 1998, three years after her husband died, of a parachuting accident. because the majority of these articles back then referred to her as Desirey Gonzalez, not Desiree Perez, because she was married to Amori Gonzalez. I just found it really odd that the guy she was doing crime with while married to her husband, and then her husband dies a year later and she marries that same guy, according to the article, three years later. Moving forward, though, she was trying to get married in 2004. At the clerk's office, Gonzalez was told she was also married to two other men.
Starting point is 03:15:29 But the clerk... All right, all right, bro. we don't got to play this whole thing for you guys to realize, man. The CEO of Rot Nation, this is the type of chick that if she would smuggle drugs, then snitch on the people she smuggled for. She's a fixer people. She's a, you know, I don't want to call it low down and dirty, but come on. She's a scrappy chick.
Starting point is 03:15:54 She a chick that, yeah, that CEO title, if Jay-Z has a meeting with her and says, yo, we need to get this nigga a little oozy. The real answer should be, well, he's in a contract with Generation Now in Atlantic. We don't have a way to get him out of
Starting point is 03:16:17 that contract legally. You need somebody like Desiree Perez who she going to get it done but it's going to be by some nefarious means. So I think that's why Jay-Z kind of, you know, gravitates to her. she'll do the dirty work for him she'll get the hands dirty and something about her makes jzy feel like
Starting point is 03:16:39 she won't you know she's told before but it don't feel like he clearly trusts her now granted i don't believe they have a sexual relationship at all um in fact she apparently dates somebody who is cool with jay z so you know you know jayzy really must fuck with her because usually sometimes when you see like a woman in a position of power and she's loyal to a dude or she's protecting a dude that dude is fucking her but apparently that's not the case when it comes to Jay Z and Desiree Perez however she is the chick who knows where all the skeletons buried but it looks like she's been hiding them for him and she's gonna you know despite what we say about her he's gonna hold on her it is what it is clerk wouldn't tell her who Gonzalez got Colbert involved
Starting point is 03:17:29 and he learned that the other grooms were a man named Guillermo Uterres and another named Hector Sal Daryaga. Two people Gonzalez didn't know. A private investigator was hired to find the men the judge refers to as the phantom husbands. But the addresses listed on the license were phonies. So she was married multiple times and nobody could find the husbands. So the judge has to order them to look for the husbands and they're saying these are phantom husbands.
Starting point is 03:18:00 As were Gonzalez's address and signature on the forms, Colbert said. The city said it couldn't avoid the marriages without the phantom husbands and then questioned whether Gonzalez's divorce filings and her late husband's death certificate were authentic. Gonzalez declined comment and would not identify her fiance. She got a lawyer and managed to get it resolved. And as we can see, a recurring theme is that Desiree does not like speaking to reporters or the media ever. I can't really blame her. We know who her fiance is now and it was Juan Prys, also known as O.G. Juan, who was a close friend of Jay-Z since 1996.
Starting point is 03:18:37 But these are some really weird situations that Desiree Perez coincidentally keeps just falling into it. But what isn't a coincidence is the poor business practices that were reported in the 2000s when she was part owner of Jay Z's club named 4040. In 2002, the liquor license was listed under Desire's father's name, Epifiano Gonzalez, from the Bronx, as president, director, and 50% stock With Jay-Z as the other 50%. Things just went smooth sailing from there, right?
Starting point is 03:19:05 I mean, she had the whole marriage issue, she served a couple of months of time, when she ran away after having allegedly helped the DEA take down cartels in Puerto Rico and Colombia, it was time for no problems, a new life, like the DEA said, fully rehabilitated. Well, not quite. 2003 was littered with lawsuits for the club that she was running by contractors who said they weren't paid, and here's the proof. On her screen is a document sent to Desiree Gonzalez. I don't got a time to read all this shit.
Starting point is 03:19:33 Hey, listen, basically, Desiree Perez is a fixer. She's a chick who's been doing, you know, she was really into some crime shit. Clearly, Jay Z trust her puts her in a position. She's been running Rock Nation. But if you have somebody like that running Rock Nation, you know they might do some sleazy shit. They might try to fuck somebody over. And, you know, your association with them is going to be the indictment to maybe you're aware of and this stuff and you're just letting it happen, right?
Starting point is 03:20:02 Okay. A few other things. A few other things, people. Shout to my boy and be a young boy. He has struck a plea with the United States government, if you guys don't know. Shout to my man, Brad, for Cohen. He basically predicted this. And young boy has struck what's called a global plea.
Starting point is 03:20:23 So he's settled or he's entered into an agreement with both the state government and also the government and it was also it was pretty much detail in court I'm gonna read through this real quick as 10 pages but I'm not gonna read through everything essentially this is the plea young boy hereby acknowledges that he's been advised of his rights part of the agreement with the United States he's gonna plead guilty to count one of the indictment you know what that is let me just get to some some interesting part so he's pleading guilty said the elements of each count fell in possession of firearms is that he's pleading guilty that he
Starting point is 03:21:01 knowingly had a firearm after being convicted of a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term longer than a year, which means a felon, okay? He's pleading that he noonly possessed the firearms and that the firearm firearms were in and effect in commerce, okay? Now, this is where the penalty for the charge comes in. All right. in a second. Okay.
Starting point is 03:21:34 So this is a stipulated sentence. It says, I'm pursuing to rule, blah, blah, the federal rules of criminal procedures as a sentence is imposed by the court with will be as follows, okay? Which has been agreed that they're reasonable sentences.
Starting point is 03:21:49 He's going to be getting 27 months for gun possession as a felon, federal gun possession. With credit for time served going back to May 10th. So now we're, So he gets four months off of that. So really he's about to serve 23 months.
Starting point is 03:22:05 If we look at 85% of 23 months, because that's, you know, it's the fans. That's the only way you're going to, they don't do early release like that. So, yeah, 23 times 0.85. He's going to do about 20 months, which, honestly, in about a year from now, or let's say before we get on to 2026, he'll be free.
Starting point is 03:22:38 So I think he got off pretty well, you know. His federal case, he's pleading guilty with 27 months in prison. He's also getting five years in probation, by the way. So he's taking five years in probation for another charge. That will be consecutive to the 27 months in prison. And also he will have to pay a fine of $200,000, okay? Um, yeah. Now, as a part of his, that's his federal charge.
Starting point is 03:23:09 He has a state charge for acting like he was a doctor and taking all these pills. It does say, hold on. Okay, here we go. And now it says, I understand that this plea agreement is solely between me and the United States attorney for the district of Utah does not buy it. blah, blah, blah. Okay, cool. Says case number, whatever filed in the Utah second district court will be dismissed after my sentencing in case. blah, blah, I will enter plea agreements for these in the Utah First District Court.
Starting point is 03:23:46 And essentially, he's paying an extra $25,000 because whatever he pled guilty to before, they're going to just roll the indictment into whatever he pled guilty to before. Everything is going to be consecutive. I mean, our concurrence. So he's doing one jail time. He just has to pay about $225,000. He'll be getting out in like pretty much a year, 14 months. I think he got off easy.
Starting point is 03:24:16 You know, I think everybody was expecting him to get up to maybe 10 years. I thought he was going to get at least four or five. Him getting out in 27 months. And he's, again, this plea, he's taking a plea for everything. And it's going to allow him to just pretty much be free in a year. Young boys win it. And you got to say salute to his attorney, Drew Finland. they say Drew Finland is a magician.
Starting point is 03:24:43 He knows how to work the system. He knows everybody in the system. So for him to even get this type of plea and to resolve all young boy situations, I think that's a very, very dope thing. So young boy will be getting out. I'm going to say at the top of or at the bottom of 2025 or possibly the top of 2026. that's the sentence he's gotten
Starting point is 03:25:09 for being a felony possession of a firearm and I think it's reasonable because people have seen way more astronomical numbers based on those facts. Okay. Cool. All right. So YB is going to be free.
Starting point is 03:25:26 Pay $225,000. Spend 27 months, which actually comes down to about like, actually, no, it would be 23 months, which actually comes down to about like 19 months, but then, once everything is served
Starting point is 03:25:39 you know it's expected that he'll be out quite soon right give me one second okay all right so we kind of went through the I don't know why the fuck yeah we went through Jay Z and Birdman
Starting point is 03:26:01 we went through Jay Z and Nikki Jay Z and Drake we went through Desiree Perez thing we did a time Iriek Hill video and the YB plea thing. That's just kind of like, it's kind of like easy.
Starting point is 03:26:18 We already did that too, though. All right. The next thing is this Yassel case. Yo, the Ysel case is picking up. I've been looking at the live viewers. Yo, they're getting more and more people just constantly into it every single time. Watching the YSel case now, I'm watching 30,000 people constantly live watching this. And because since Woody's gotten off the stand, we're getting to pretty much, I think a month or maybe
Starting point is 03:26:42 two months till the state's case is going to be almost exhausted in terms of the main witnesses. They're going to go into some experts and stuff like that. But I said before, Woody was the halfway mark through the case. So people are watching this because, again, it still could end the mistrial and it could just, like, completely just self-destruct. Anyway, there's a new person on a stand, and this person, I believe, is Antonio Sledge. If you guys don't remember, this was one of the guys who was, you know, acting like he wasn't going to tell until he told, okay? This was like preliminary hearings and bond hearings.
Starting point is 03:27:21 This guy was, he wasn't with the snitch shit, but I think everybody's seen what Woody's, how Woody's living. Everybody's starting to change his minds. Anyway, he was on the, he was on the stand today, and while I understand the prosecutor, him and the prosecutor had this interest in, like, back and forth because some people believe the prosecutor, has been trying to intimidate the witnesses. Listen to this. Agreement that you entered on December 28, 2002. Did you ever stop and ask the judge
Starting point is 03:28:00 or tell the judge you wanted to clarify anything? No, because I thought my lawyer had already did that. And when, When you heard the state read out factual acknowledgments and ask you if they were true and correct, did you ever indicate part of them are true, but part of them are not? I didn't think I could speak that in court. Why did you think you could not speak it in court? Because I ain't thinking, like, I could just burst out and say that why the judge would
Starting point is 03:28:43 reading while you was reading out because the judge didn't read it up i ain't think i can do that that was never inspiring to me between December 28th 2022 and last week did someone tell you you could burst out while the state was reading something no no so last week when i was asking you questions and you told the judge i gave you a headache and made your blood pressure go up what the hell You felt comfortable enough. Did you feel comfortable enough to do that? Because I'm on the stand trying to explain. When you send back that, you ain't explaining it.
Starting point is 03:29:20 But when you sitting on this side, you call me and her to tell my truth and my understanding. And that's what I'm giving you. I can't get you nothing else. I'm only giving you my truth. Okay. And so when you were sitting at the table next to your lawyer, did you feel more or less comfortable about giving your truth? I don't recall.
Starting point is 03:29:45 Do you want to answer the question? I just answer. No, I'm asking you, do you want to answer? I want to answer any question that you got for me, but if I don't remember, I don't remember. And so what is it that you don't recall about being at the table with your lawyer? I just don't recall, but I ain't trying to give you a hard time. But it looked like you're trying to give me a hard time. Mr. Sledge, would you tell the jury, as between when you were in court,
Starting point is 03:30:17 court on December 28th, 2022, and when you have been in court for the last four days, if there is anything different about parties in the courtroom that you can point out. No. So everyone here in the courtroom was in the courtroom with you on December 28th, 2022. When you say- Relevance? Your Honor, it goes to changes. Overruled.
Starting point is 03:30:51 Could you repeat it? Were each of the people now in the courtroom today? Hang on. Yes. Yeah, essentially they get into ones of sidebars. Then they go back in the open court. That's going to be a whole lot of people. Just get to the point that you want to ask.
Starting point is 03:31:20 Yes. You already said I was here. Was there a court reporter here in the courtroom, not this one, but a court reporter? I think so. Were there deputies? I think so. Were there DA investigators? I think, yes.
Starting point is 03:31:36 Obviously, you said your lawyer was here? Yes. All right. Was your friend Shannon here? If you're trying to get to the point... Mr. Sledge, I'm not trying to get to anything, and I really do need you to just answer the question. So if you could please, Your Honor, if the court would instruct... witness to answer the question.
Starting point is 03:31:56 Listen to the question and answer the question. And then you can and then you may explain it. I would ask that he would be allowed to complete his answer. And your honor, since his answer was not responsive, his answer was not responsive. I'd ask that you. Reask the question. Was your friend Mr. Stillwell here in court with you on December 28th,
Starting point is 03:32:17 2022? No. Was your friend defendant Williams here in court with you on December 28, 2022? No. Was your friend defendant, Kendrick, here in court with you on December 28, 2022? No.
Starting point is 03:32:32 Was there in attendance at the time he took his plea? Your Honor. I had told you the same thing. What if they was in my face or not in my face? I'm not scared of them on you. I don't want you to be. Well, that's what you're acting like. That's what you're acting like you're trying to pay.
Starting point is 03:32:46 So do you want me to bring my voice down? And I apologize. Don't let me. I ain't your child. Can I take a break? Oh, y'all in coffee. Now, we've had so many breaks this morning. We really need to get through this.
Starting point is 03:32:58 You're some of these witnesses, man. It's like they all got the same script. Yo, Your Honor, let's take a break. They're checking the prosecutor. Prosecutors that are below in my voice. So Mr. Sledge was either quay that is in the courtroom here today in the courtroom with you on December 28th. 22? No. Was Lil Ride in the courtroom with you on December 28th, 2022?
Starting point is 03:33:35 Get to your point, no. That is my point. Your point, is pointless. Was the lawyer for Mr. Huey Kwey in court with you on December 28th, 2022? No. Was the lawyer for Cornelvious Nichols in court with you on December 28th, 2020? to. No. Was the lawyer for a little rod in court with you? Okay, he's just sitting a bunch of nothing. Anyway, there's just continuous, like, tense moments.
Starting point is 03:34:07 Um, I believe this guy got a plea. Like, so, so here's our Fulton County is looking like a bunch of idiots. They gave mad people a plea, basically saying, hey, listen, in your plea, you're, going to agree that whether they're in a gang or they're whatever, we might not call you. Now, everybody signed that those plea agreements and it was a get out of jail free card because did they stop doing violence? Did they start like being perfect citizens? Hell no. So that's kind of where we are with it.
Starting point is 03:34:42 And I believe this guy got a plea, right? Yo, Bag Chaser, I do read the superstitious. This guy got a plea and now they come in court and they're all doing the same script because they're all trying to save thug. on December 28th, 22. I don't know if that's been asked an answer or not. It was not.
Starting point is 03:35:06 Okay. We'll go ahead. If you say it was. Was the lawyer for Little Rye? No. Okay. All right. So it's a bunch of bullshit still going on
Starting point is 03:35:29 this YSelt case. If you guys watch it and you guys do watch it during the daytime, it's being streamed on, I believe 11 alive and also long crimes. All you're seeing is like these these prosecutors are out of their league.
Starting point is 03:35:44 The judges help him as much as they can. All the witnesses that they gave these deals to it. And that's the thing, I think the fucked up thing about this whole case for the prosecutors, y'all gave mad niggas deals basically telling them,
Starting point is 03:36:00 oh, we might call you. And all the people y'all have called, they don't remember shit. They're acting like, oh, no. you know, they're basically trying to help thugs. So it's like, you know, these prosecutors are fucked. They gave out too many deals. It would be different than they guys were sitting in jail,
Starting point is 03:36:17 but these things have been sitting at home. And it's almost like they're damn, they're voluntarily coming because even though it was already put that, you know, these people who are taking a stand for the prosecutor have immunity, they're not moving like that. They're not moving like that and put some, obviously the prosecutors in a different type of back.
Starting point is 03:36:39 because they got to make something make sense. Real quick, I want to say rest in peace to, of course, Rich Homi Kwan, his father spoke about, you know, some funeral arrangements. Icon, real influencers, Rich Homi Kwan, died yesterday in Atlanta hospital. He was just 34 years old. Investigators are still trying to determine his cause of death, but foul play is not suspected at this time. Channel 2's Michael Seid and spoke exclusively with the late rapper's father.
Starting point is 03:37:07 He's now alive with his Michael in Northwest That's my boy, Michael. Yeah, Justin, we are inside the trap music museum Where they paid tributes to some of the most influential rappers That come out of Atlanta, we're talking about people like future here You got 21 Savage and of course rich homie Kwan now he is from Atlanta But he gained national success but he never forgot his roots millions rapper Rich Homi Kwan gained mainstream fame through trap singles like type of way.
Starting point is 03:37:48 Flex and lifestyle. But the 34-year-old hip-hop stars life came to a tragic end Thursday after he was found unresponsive at his home, then rushed to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. Right now, the cause of his death remains under investigation. On Friday, I spoke exclusively with his father, Corey Lamar, who got emotional as he talked about what it was like to watch his son mature into a loving and caring father of five. He had all of his kids with him and he was happy. Wait, are all kids from... Sorry, I'm like...
Starting point is 03:38:27 Damn. Watson's father cries tough. He had all five kids from the same woman? He had ever had just all of them. Rich homie Kwan, whose real name was De Quantas Lamar, grew up in at... and graduated from DeKalb County's McNair High School. Jewel Wicker is an entertainment and culture reporter who has written for Billboard GQ and the New York Times. He had these really hyper-local lyrics, but these melodies and these hooks that were really
Starting point is 03:38:57 accessible and really pop-friendly, mainstream-friendly, and I think that's a part of what the appeal of him as an artist was. He was a really integral part of Atlanta's sound and the way that it kind of took the global stage. Yeah, back out here, you know, his father told me they are still working on finalizing the funeral plans, but they want to have a big public funeral to celebrate his son's life. He also wanted me to tell all of his son's fans out there, friends, even family members. Thank you so much for all the prayers and support during this difficult time. We're live in Northwest Atlanta, Michael Seid, and Channel 2 Action News.
Starting point is 03:39:37 Answered questions, but getting the answer. Yeah, absolutely just so sad. way, you know, so his father's plan on a funeral, apparently the funeral is going to be public. It's going to be, obviously they're going to probably have a private ceremony, but they're going to do a public ceremony as well. They're going to encourage fans to come out. And I ain't going to lie to you. All y'all little fake Atlanta rappers who finally start responding to him after he died, posting them up on your gram. Yeah, I wouldn't give him a verse nor a beat. This is where y'all get to, you know what I mean? This is where y'all get to do y'all,
Starting point is 03:40:13 thing go out to the public funeral start crying this is where you're supposed to act like oh man they really took my twin away even though you didn't fuck with him before he died i know he's he's he's he's somewhere just looking down like damn couldn't get a metro beat before this shit but this thing over here he's just he's trying to just cook it up until the casket dropping the ground i get it i get it okay um his father did speak again to a podcast and let me see if I can play
Starting point is 03:40:48 what his father said he called in is what he said What are some of those those values and scruples that you instill humility treat others with respect
Starting point is 03:41:06 I don't look down first because I was raised the only time you look down on the man is when you're looking down to help and get up morals and values
Starting point is 03:41:22 before a doll don't feel your soul I always remember But the decisions you make today and determine your future, I still want to honor to the people in the world. God told you to be in this position. Don't take it.
Starting point is 03:41:52 What are some of those values and scruples that you instill? Man, it's so heartbreaking hearing his father, you know, trying and trying to give some context. I know some of y'all are going to be. be critical, you know, because you can never please everybody all the time. Some of people are going to be like, yo, why is his father doing an interview? I think his father knew who his son was, entertainer by trade, but also by heart, someone
Starting point is 03:42:27 who was passionate about music. And I think having to understand it, that's why, you know, of course you're going to have a private, you know, private ceremony. and everything, but they want to give the fans a chance to show some love as well. Very tough time for that family. Very tough time. There's no type of, there's no experience you can have that can make you numb to this. You know, so you got to imagine these people are hurt.
Starting point is 03:43:03 100%. Okay. Now, you know, I've seen someone make this point. if rich homie kwan is found by the medical assistant to have died off say a overdose but it's because it's a bad pill so it's a high degree or a high concentration of fentanyl in this particular pill whoever the person who sold him that pill go to jail to and that's just that's been a thing recently it's like if you're selling drugs, even illegally, you are kind of responsible for the drugs you were selling, even though it's not legal.
Starting point is 03:43:58 If you allow the drugs you sell to be laced, to be too much of a dose that could be lethal, you're going to get charged for shit. And I can't say I disagree with that particular stance. You know what I mean? Yeah. Oh, boy. And pretty fucking sad, I'm not gonna'a.
Starting point is 03:44:45 It's pretty fucking sad. You're his father, but it's not like you would think he was a mentor and really like a best friend. Yeah, we had a unique relationship because we were father and son. But we had a relate, like he called, well, we called each other my best friend. We spoke daily. We spoke several times. the day before he passed, I looked at my fall. We were on the fall like 11 times.
Starting point is 03:45:28 We had a bun, we had a bun. You know, we had a bun. I grew up without my father. So I knew that. If I ever had kids, I was going to be in their lives. And I've been in his life since day one up until he passed. So, yeah, we had a unique bond, you know. You're your spot.
Starting point is 03:45:53 Wow. Um, fucking sad, man. Sad. Okay. All right. I pretty much ran through the topics that I kind of had.
Starting point is 03:46:06 Most of the stuff was really the Jay-Z shit. I don't think, I don't, I don't have to keep hammering home to Jay-Z shit. Bruh. Jay-Z has a long history of snake and everybody. And when I mean snake and everybody, I don't mean this guy is like a guy will just get you killed.
Starting point is 03:46:21 Jay-Z is someone who, is a businessman. He operates from the stance of how could I increase my profit, pad my pockets, secure generation wealth for, you know, Sir Carter and Blue Ivy Carter and all these other, you know, of his kids. But that's, that's all he is, right? You know, he realizes that people look up to him and people, people believe that because of his cultural currency, like, that he's doing things only for the benefit of our black culture. and also our hip-hop culture. And, you know, he just showed us multiple times.
Starting point is 03:46:57 That ain't the thing. He's still a man. He has access to grind. For whatever reason, he still got something against 50, Wayne, Drake, and I don't know if I could tell him to get over whatever that is. You know what I'm saying? Even though I do things to conflict of interest, if you have a nigger who's a hater and he's supposed to be independently
Starting point is 03:47:19 or on a neutral level trying to pick artists, that could be performing at a game, right? So, you know, it is what it is. Everything that Nicky Mina said was right, do I think Birdman could do anything? Fuck, no. I'm just be honest with you. I don't think, like, yo, where Jay-Z's clocking at right now,
Starting point is 03:47:40 you can't do nothing to Jay-Z unless you fuck up under this business. And the businesses he has going on right now are, it's impervious to some of the fuck shit that you would normally see people try to do. You don't know what Jay-Z has, you know, his money invested in, who's holding or what holdings. You only hear about some of these deals
Starting point is 03:48:06 when they get done or they get settled. We got $850 million from Bacardi for Duce. He got $300 million from Square to buy title. Like the nigga just, he knows how to fucking move. So again, if you're, if you need to be convinced of what, type of person, Jay-Z is, I just think, you know, you're just not that educated. So get educated first before we could even have a conversation about it.
Starting point is 03:48:32 So I don't knock it, you know, I don't knock it. I just see for what it is. So Birdman being upset, Boosey being upset, Hurricane Chris being upset. Again, I keep telling y'all, he wouldn't do this if it was going down in his hometown right around the corner from him. Okay? All right. I feel like there might have been
Starting point is 03:48:58 another hip-hop topic that I forgot. If not chat, you know, again, I'm still working with the voice thing here. I might call it. I know. I know we only have four hours, but shit, it gets the street going for one more day.
Starting point is 03:49:16 All right. Oh, juvenile spoke. Let's see what juvenile said. There you go. I ain't know juvenile spoke. Shit. I didn't want me to speak on this Super Bowl. situation. Look, I'm mad about the situation just like y'all, man. But, you know, my hatred is toward the NFL, you know, not really, not really the people that booked the halftime show.
Starting point is 03:49:50 I'm mad at the people that hired the motherfuckers that book the halftime show. I feel like y'all should step in. Y'all are through 11 Super Bowls in New Orleans, man. Y'all have yet to put a hip-hop artist from New Orleans on the damn Super Bowl. Sure, y'all have put artists on the Super Bowl back in the days they all hurt and uh the list goes on not too many not too many you know I feel like every time y'all come here y'all should have somebody from our city on this shit but this time it really stick hit hard when you don't have Lil Wayne on the show I don't see how to fuck y'all don't have Lil Wayne doing a halftime show yo damn I didn't realize New Orleans at 11 motherfucking um um uh half time shows let me ask that a question because I I seen her king well
Starting point is 03:50:34 Boosie said that New Orleans is the most cultural city in America. You know, I've never been to New Orleans. Birdman invited me there before to go to, he wanted to do an interview with me, him, and Slim at like Essence Fest. I don't know why I didn't do it, but whatever. I guess the question is then if there's 11 Super Bowls that's been to New Orleans, I'm wondering what New Orleans means to, let's just say culture. And if you want to take culture to mean black culture, you could.
Starting point is 03:51:11 If you want to take it to be an overall culture, you could. Is it a reason why New Orleans has gotten that many Super Bowls? Because that does seem like a lot. Now, again, Boosie said it's the most cultural city. And when we think about it, I always hear like, you know, even like the food, the, you know, some of the traditions that supposedly still have in New Orleans. It feels like it angles towards a lot of, you know, you know, black culture that people are proud of. But I'm also trying to think, like, what else?
Starting point is 03:51:51 Like, what other city could be compared to that? I don't think New York is the most cultural city. Memphis, nah. Cali or not Cali, I mean, I'm Los Angeles. Nah. Maybe it has a point. Maybe it does have a point that the New Orleans might be one of the most cultural cities in the United States. Atlanta?
Starting point is 03:52:31 I think Atlanta is kind of more new, though. And even, you know what Atlanta's culture is? Atlanta's culture is, like, impacted by transplants, like, people who don't live there and move there. So they're bringing, if you're moving there from New York, you're bringing a little bit of New York culture, you're moving there from St. Louis, you bring a little bit of St. Louis culture. You move there from Cal,
Starting point is 03:52:53 you move a little bit, you bring a little bit of that culture. Rather than, like, New Orleans, I think New Orleans culture is very distinct. I've always heard New Orleans, and it feels like it's cemented in stone. That's the only reason why I would even do any pushback on Atlanta. So what about Philly, Boston?
Starting point is 03:53:15 Okay, Philly. Boston, I don't think people look at Boston as cultural. Philly? I'll say yes. Philly, yes. Philly? Yeah. Where else?
Starting point is 03:53:40 Why do y'all keep saying, like, y'all can still make fat? You know I'm still fat, right? Like, I lost 20 pounds. I'm still fat. Like, I got, I still got to lose, like, so I don't know if I ever told you about the weight loss journey, right? So it was like, after my first day on everyday struggle, I'm the same weight now.
Starting point is 03:53:59 then I was the first day, everyday struggle. Like, after that, I, like, gained 20 pounds, and then I lost 20 pounds. So I'm back to that weight. Now I got to see if I could go below that weight. I think that weight's going to be hard to go below or whatever. And even then, yakuza make fat jokes. Just look at some old pitches. Detroit?
Starting point is 03:54:23 Yeah, yeah, I could see Detroit. I've never heard about Detroit. The thing with Detroit, though, like, with New Orleans, I've heard. about it with like just music. I've heard about it with food. I've heard it. It just felt, it do feel cultural when I hear about New Orleans and I've never been there. I've never heard about Detroit with nothing cultural other than poverty.
Starting point is 03:54:47 I'm going to keep it up being with you. No disrespect to y'all. I've never heard about like Detroit like, oh shit. Yeah, if you ever come to Detroit, you got to get this food or, oh shit. This is what we do in Detroit? Nah, I never hear that shit. I'm going to keep it a bean. Chicago,
Starting point is 03:55:06 now Chicago eliminated from that. The moment I had a couple of Chicago niggas on here, and they told me that Cheetos and cheese was their national dish or their stateside dish or citywide dish. I'm like, y'all are good. Somebody said, Houston, I think Houston's a new Atlanta, and Atlanta's too new. So Houston can't count.
Starting point is 03:55:34 Y'all say Memphis? Memphis could be a thing. Memphis could be a thing. Bro, Houston, from what I've heard, and I haven't been to Houston. Well, have I been here? Maybe. They say Houston is like, Houston is Atlanta four or five years ago. It was like a glory, like, phase for Atlanta.
Starting point is 03:56:11 What happened now is that they don't change a lot of shit up with Atlanta. They're changing when the clubs could close, so they're killing the party scene. Apparently, niggies is just acting two. much up so when that happens they start to regulate when they regulate they kind of you know run people out of the city who just only came to party and fucked shit up maybe memphis i can see memphis memphis is a birthplace of rock and roll dc no i'm not going to dc somebody said you can't say florida you got to give me a city and there's no there's no city in florida that's like mad hip-hip Houston is the home of like chopped and screw.
Starting point is 03:56:59 Yeah, no, no, I get that, but like still, I still feel like it's early. All right. Half yon is strolling. Okay. All right. Anyway, people, um, I don't know. I'm still trying to conserve my voice a bit, bro, so, like, I'm not even going to go too crazy today, and I know.
Starting point is 03:57:22 Um, I definitely plan to, uh, stay like an hour and a half more, but, um, we're going to call it, bro. Um, I didn't really have too many topics. I mean, like, uh, I guess I could do this Tory Lane shit. Yeah, let's do the tour lane shit I'm trying to find a reason to stay on Okay, yo, so Tori Lanes Like his team hit me earlier today
Starting point is 03:57:41 They were like yo, brov You know I mean? They said Tori Lanes Recording Equipment got seized by the prison guards After the cell blockerated amid the prison tape success And the first thing I said was I had to call the prison that tax stone was at Because I don't know how this nigga
Starting point is 03:57:58 Keep having a phone Like this nigga online threatening niggies He's trying to kill niggas again I had to, you know, listen, I was trying to talk to the warden over there. Yes. Yeah, brother. This is how we, listen, this is why you locked up, gang. You, uh, somebody sent us to Tax Stone.
Starting point is 03:58:14 Every time you tweet at me, I'm calling the warden, me and that nigga, we pen pals now, nigga, we texting and shit like that. We're like, ready to sell tomorrow. Yeah, that's what happened when you get locked up because you did some dumb shit. Okay. Now, that's Tax Stone. He's an idiot. Tori, that's my man's, you feel me?
Starting point is 03:58:30 I want Tori to make some music in jail Tori should make some great music in jail Except Tori I think you snitched on yourself buddy Yo Tori has to take some accountability And that's my man's He is my man's but we gotta keep it a beam Tori got to take accountability
Starting point is 03:58:46 Tori Half of why you sitting in jail It's because you snitched on yourself During that first phone call Remember that first phone call when that nigga got locked up and he called Kelsey Brov they played out in court Nigger anybody who the brain says
Starting point is 03:59:00 you a guilty, yo. Tori jail call. Y'all remember this one? Right here? No. Right here. Sorry. An inmate at LAPD jail.
Starting point is 03:59:10 This call is subject to recording and monitoring. Press 1 to accept the call. To deny this call. I would think by now, Tori know how to move covertly. Here's the thing. Tori announced he's making music from jail. And then now,
Starting point is 03:59:27 Tori's shocked that they raided his jail cell. Like, come on, bro, like trust me, I'm on the wave. I want to blame, I want to blame Bigfoot for a motherfucking snitching all you too. You get what I'm saying? But brother, you can't name something the prison tapes and then get surprised. They found, they raided the prison and found the fuck, I don't know, the iPhone or whatever you're recording on. Anyway, look like Tori's, you know, etiquette in jail just might not be the best, man,
Starting point is 03:59:59 because I think half of what landed him here was this. What hospital? Why what? You said what? You're listening to Street TV. I said, Megan's in the hospital still. I'm outside the hospital. What hospital?
Starting point is 04:00:20 I don't know. Yo, Tor, if you was thinking 10 steps ahead, you'd have said, bitch, why you shoot that girl? Yo, Tori, if you would whispered that on a jail phone, nigga, you would have been home. free nigger why you whisper this on you why you shoot that girl meg and even if she was like what just be like never mind my bad i'm i'm tweaking i'm tweaking i'm tweaking anyway um you good that's all you had to do tory you know you know it's the funny thing is i'm talking tories
Starting point is 04:00:54 people i'm gonna say one-tenth of the reason why tory not while tory in jail Tori got too much pride to snitch Do you feel me? Like Tori had too much pride to snitch Don't want to talk to the investigators Did not want to mention the fact that Kelsey had the gun at some point He didn't want to say nothing about nothing And what basically happened is that
Starting point is 04:01:26 In the heat of the moment They had statements from the women That kind of implicate him he had to either talk to the detectives or take the stand or take the stand and explain it himself
Starting point is 04:01:45 but apparently they say Tori don't want to snitch nigger I'd be singing like Tweety Bird nigger they'd be singing like Rubber's Rubin stuttered Rai Wave Adele Mariah carry I'd be singing like a bird nigger I'm gonna be free anyway uh they raided tori cell
Starting point is 04:02:10 they found his little recording equipment they took it now Tori had a whole lot of music plan tory was in yo from what I'm hearing they said Tori go to lunch and Tori rap battling at lunch word too like tory he's he's keeping his rap skills up to par so apparently tory was going to just keep dropping music the prison tapes was going to be like his hundred gigs he was going to keep no doing his thing except brother you can't even accuse nobody a snitching on you when you literally called what you're recorded in jail the prison tapes so unfortunately uh his equipment was was was I'm taking. I tried to talk to his team and I suggested that they find somebody new to smuggle an iPhone in their ass crack that he could use to record. So, you know, hopefully Tor will keep
Starting point is 04:03:14 on new music soon, but for now he cannot because they have found, you know, his recording equipment and it's kind of odd, right? You know what's funny? this is funny right here yo vibes cartel was locked up and i know yeah i'm like yo you told my vibes cartel record in jail he explained how we recorded music in jail this shit is bananas when you see it listen to this you had fever is one of your biggest records of all time
Starting point is 04:03:48 it came out while you were gone so how much can you say about like what that process was like it wasn't really that hard because you know technology made it i'm telling i got to slow this down then here you go easier you know we we used to record on the iPhone you know what a mic you got a mic attached to it oh my i have to DJ directly into the into the iPhone yeah all right let me just go hey good morning good afternoon good evening and good night to the into the iPhone oh yeah good night
Starting point is 04:04:30 it's all good remember i'm out right now so good remember i'm out right now So I'm out trying out. Okay, because like the first couple. So he's breaking down recorded in prison, which I have to imagine that Tori's doing something of the same if Tori's creating music in prison. Now, here's the thing. With Tori, we have to really figure out if he's recording in prison. I mean, I know they took some equipment.
Starting point is 04:04:51 We don't know how much he recorded in prison because the thing is Vibes Cartel was dropping the most music while locked up. So, you know, at first they were like, no, it came from his catalog. eventually they were like, bro, it's no way he has this much music. And now since he's free, he's admitting, nigga, I was recording in prison. So listen to his process. Years, you were still releasing music. And everybody was like, yo, he just records so much that it's just music that's been left over that's coming out.
Starting point is 04:05:20 And then after five years, we were like, yo, my man, what's going on here? Like, he's like referencing, you're referencing modern day shit. We're like, what's going on here? Well, initially, that was true because I did record a lot of songs. So, like, in the first year, yeah, we had songs unreleased. But then, you know what I mean? The songs ran out, and we had to do what we had to do. So that's when I started recording, like, behind bars, which was, I mean, it wasn't really that hard because, you know, technology made it easier.
Starting point is 04:05:56 You know, we used to record on the iPhone, on the iPhone set. Yeah, because it has an amazing, not the six, the five plus or the five, what's it? Uh-huh. Something like that. But it has an amazing sound quality. Yeah, so fever or those songs recorded on that, that little iPhone. You know, what a mic? That's crazy.
Starting point is 04:06:19 You recorded all, like, if you listen to some of his music, like, it sounds like he got a studio in there. You got a mic attached to it? Oh, Mike. I had to DJ directly into the, into the iPhone. straight into the foam. Yeah, but I used my, on the bunk, they gave you a mattress, right?
Starting point is 04:06:40 Because I use the mattress to imitate the padding in the studio. Now, granted, you got to remember this guy right here, Vibs Cartel, the World Boss, there's rumors that, you know, again, remember this is Jamaica. There's rumors that, you know, in nighttime, he was allowed to leave the jail cell
Starting point is 04:06:59 whenever he wanted to. he's not confirming that. So, you know, a lot of people used to believe that he would leave the jail to go to a studio and record. Right now he's saying he didn't leave the jail and he was just recorded in the jail. He's tell you how. So I had to, yeah, I had the phone like three feet away from my face and I wrapped the mattress around my head and recorded. It was crazy, man. On my knees, too.
Starting point is 04:07:27 And you have the beat. It was crazy, bro. You have the beat in the headphones? Yes, I had the beat in a separate, yeah, exactly. So the beat is the headphones in a separate phone and the iPhone or on my iPad and then, yeah, I record directly into the iPhone. So, you know, it went into the iPhone as acapella. And then we had to send it to the studio and the engineer. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 04:07:51 Of course. You must have an amazing engineer or a set of engineers. A set of them, big up done well and big of red boom. Yeah, man. Trust me. Man, that is... And then so... So, let me...
Starting point is 04:08:06 Like, what time of day would you record? Like, was there people watching you record? No, most of the time we had to record, like, at night, but sometimes it had to be, like, at 12 o'clock when most of the officers would be, like, on lunch break. Holy shit. Yeah, so for like... And I would still have to be watching.
Starting point is 04:08:29 So I'd be like... I'd be like yeah see for and then I had to get up and look now I mean so it was it was line by line like yeah it was crazy you know I mean but it had to be so they didn't so you just record you just record all your vocals all the different parts all the different sets and it sent it to the studio and they would put it together piece it together well would piece it together but after I'd record it then I would make a demo so I would play the rhythm loud and then DJ so you
Starting point is 04:09:01 like a demo so then you like to follow yeah yeah yeah yeah for years we've been we've been wondering how you put out
Starting point is 04:09:08 all this yeah so essentially he just gave the secret sauce on how he recorded music this is if you
Starting point is 04:09:13 want to believe this because again a lot of people believe this guy is so powerful jail for him was like living at your crib
Starting point is 04:09:22 you know what I mean like he gets to come and go when he wants to and he just has to be in jail as a formal but he's living the best life.
Starting point is 04:09:32 Yeah, if you believe that, you believe that. If you don't believe that, I guess this story would be compelling. Now, in terms of Tori Lanes, how many years Tori got? Tori going to be at this for a while. Tori Lane's sentence. Oh, he got 10 years. Holy shit.
Starting point is 04:09:53 And he got sentenced. When did he get sentenced? Yeah, he got sentenced in what year? I don't know why he said, September 2023. I feel like he's been in for like two years now. It's only been one year? Yeah, it looks like it's been about a year since his sentencing,
Starting point is 04:10:27 but he was locked up before sentencing. He was remanded after the verdict came down, which was, I believe, like in December. So he's been locked up for like a year and a half or so. Wow. Tough shit for $12. I genuinely wonder what's his plan You're given 10 years even if you serve four
Starting point is 04:11:00 They're supposedly trying to kick you out the United States Like is Tori gonna go back to Canada? I don't know I don't know man all right anyway It took Tory shit but um look out I do think some way somehow he's talented enough that he'll get somehow new music to y'all okay All right. Playboard Cardi in a sling. Okay.
Starting point is 04:11:31 What else? About that. We talked about that. We talked about the young boy thing. Rest in peace of James Earls, Jones. Talks about Nikki and Jay-Z. Nikki Benage Beef. Yeah, Nikki has this really interesting beef with the Rock Nation.
Starting point is 04:11:59 shit what we've been asking about strict memory as the years go on no I want to watch yeah I'm I'm over to Nicky shit down Nicky Minaj doubles down we've seen that already apparently a mural of Kendrick Lamar got banned I've seen this I don't I don't get what this is and again I think the West Coast should be very very proud of Kendrick. He's made he's made it where there's a possibility that right now the number one rappers is on the
Starting point is 04:13:19 West Coast, so fuck it. Yeah, whoever who did this on the West Coast, man, get out of y'all feelings. Kendrick is y'all niggas, Jesus. Get the fuck over it. And he's not giving none of y'all niggas a verse. All y'all nigh is going to flop. We're going to laugh at the rest of y'all for doing like 3,000
Starting point is 04:13:35 records. So when Kendrick, when he drops, you're going to do 700K. That's how it is, bruh. So don't vandalize his goddamn I'm statue. What you should do is kneel in front of it and beg this nigga. Hopefully he'll bring you to the pop-out part two.
Starting point is 04:13:49 Okay? Who just sent, somebody just sent the donation talking about, you heard me talking about Trump and you're asking to be about what? Yeah, me and Destiny were supposed to meet up a few times. So me and we're supposed to meet up.
Starting point is 04:14:09 Not necessarily debate, but just do some content. Um, let me see. Yes, I heard you talk, talk about Trump last time. What were you talking to Destiny? He's super knowledgeable and then tells you on that topic. He streams almost every day. Yeah, I'm, I'm kind of waiting for him.
Starting point is 04:14:24 He was supposed to come here, then something, some plans change. You know, that's normal shit, though. So whenever we get a chance to be in the same area, we'll lock in for a podcast. We haven't had the chance yet to meet on stream. But I rather do the podcast than we could chop it up on stream. But it doesn't matter either. way I rock with him the two pot case what do you mean the two bucks case there's not much about a two pot case happening chat like literally they're they're they're they're about to take
Starting point is 04:15:06 remember kifidi's the only person that's remaining alive they're trying to take him to trial his lawyers are trying to like delay that as much as possible trying to get him out on bond that he could you know start paying some of the bills of the legal fees by doing interviews or whatever you have it. And yeah, no. That case won't be decided for another year and a half. And I'm going to be honest with you. I do believe that if your high hopes is that Keefe D.
Starting point is 04:15:39 will be found guilty, I actually don't know. You know, it's been 30 years. No one has really kept the greatest of evidence that could help. prosecute this guy. So really, Keefee, these situations going off his own words, and they're going to use his own words saying, well, you said this, you said that. And I mean, he could still try to pull the wise of Woody by saying, yo, no, I lied, or this and third. But we don't know. We don't know. Right. Talk to Mark Lamont Hill for what? Yeah. And I guess, yeah, I guess I'll touch on this, you know, you, I'm going to be honest with you, man. Tyrese is so confusing to
Starting point is 04:16:31 every time I hear Tyrese talking Yo, to me, Tyrese is just an eloquent and be a young boy, okay? I heard him talk to talk about Joe and said that Joe didn't, you know, Joe hasn't gotten married, but like, but I'm going to be honest with you, I'm sick and tired of being involved in Tyrese's situation
Starting point is 04:16:56 or even knowing about it. I don't think Tyrese is really getting, taking advantage of that much. Tyrese, you're a really successful actor. And what we need to tell Tyrese is that even though he's trying to seek his fourth
Starting point is 04:17:12 or fifth marriage, brother, if you care that much about your money being given away to a potential ex-partner, why are you getting married? That's the number one reason why wealthy people or men with
Starting point is 04:17:28 money don't get married because they don't want to get in a situation where the love dries up, but the money got to still flow. Either that or get a pre-up. So every single time I see Tyrese like kind of doing this woes me thing, yo, yo, listen, whatever the child support is, nigger, you keep having kids with these women and keep trying to pursue marriage. Whatever the alimony, the child support is, pay it. And let me tell you one thing about this is reality of things.
Starting point is 04:17:56 if you ever see some child support orders or a payment that is ordered by a judge or let's say let's say the IRS comes in and says somebody owes $50 million you you don't owe like these judges look at what you make they're not going to tell you
Starting point is 04:18:14 you owe what you can't make or you owe what you don't have so you can't feel too bad for Tyrese because I think Tyrese is chasing some of the things that's got him in the position he's gotten So at some point we got to tell Tyrese, man, pay your child support and peace. And whatever you got going on with your baby mothers or whatever the case is,
Starting point is 04:18:36 we just don't give a fuck no more. We don't care. So he starts out about saying at 9 a.m. in the morning, I might be arrested in court, Samantha's lawyer, blah, blah, who are besties. I don't know why Tyrese act like he's not like 45. I'm like, yo, you got some money. Even though she's suing you in civil court or at family court, you have to pay for her lawyer because you are technically still married to her.
Starting point is 04:19:01 So, again, I just don't understand Tyrese, period, bro. I literally for the life of me don't understand him because I feel like he wants sympathy, but we just don't give a fuck enough, bro. I'm sorry. And it would be different if he's like, yo, hey, I fucked up this girlfriend. nest me you know is a fool you you know fool me once that's on me
Starting point is 04:19:25 or no no no fool me once that's on you fool me twice that's definitely on me right it's like yo bro you're still trying to chase the same things that's gotten you this result and we got to just tell Tyrese cut it out bro please cut it out okay either that or just pray for that nigga man though the Tyreek hill thing
Starting point is 04:19:47 okay did I hear what camera on them said no reason why little Wayne should not be performing the Super Bowl this one person who's stopping this I know
Starting point is 04:19:58 you know it's not really it's not really a secret little Wayne had a problem with somebody before who's kind of part of the organization

Starting point is 04:20:37 Mike, we'll tell you what's going on later. It got to stop, bro. It got to stop. Yeah, and I'm doubling down on that. Hating at this age is crazy. Yeah. It's wild. Yeah, that's to you, Jay.
Starting point is 04:20:50 hating at that age is crazy. Yo, put it like that. Jay is one of them. I keep telling you he's a generational hater, bro. It's wild, man.
Starting point is 04:20:58 I love him. Great dude. And this has nothing towards Kendrick. If anybody deserved it, Kendrick will deserve it. But just some back story going on.
Starting point is 04:21:08 Little Wayne, not to be performing in New Orleans for the Super Bowl, is egregious. And it got to stop. It got to stop. Mike,

Starting point is 04:21:35 Give that son of off. Here's a full clip of that. I think it's a great opportunity. Not just Hot Boys cash money. All the songs Little Wayne's Dunwebeth is, Blake 182. There's no reason. while little wayne should not be performing the super bowl.
Starting point is 04:22:06 This one person who's stopping this. You know, it's not really, it's not really a secret. Little Wayne had a problem with somebody before who's kind of part of the organization running it. This is payback. Who's that, who's Little Wayne artist? Drake. Yeah. This is, this is, this is.
Starting point is 04:22:28 Hating at this age is crazy. It's crazy, bro. Bro, bro, it's ridiculous. Like, Mike, Mike, there's some hip-hop shit that you probably don't know what's going on, to be totally honest with you, so we'll school you behind the seeds. Little Wayne, not to be performing in New Orleans for the Super Bowl, is egregious, and it got to stop. It got to stop. Mike, we'll tell you what's going on later.
Starting point is 04:22:52 It got to stop, bro. It got to stop, man. Yeah, and I'm doubling down on that. Hating at this age is crazy. Yeah. It's wild. It's wild, bro. I work from Wayne.
Starting point is 04:23:03 I love him. Great dude. Great two. And this has nothing to us, Kendra. If anybody deserved it, Kendrick will deserve it. But there's some backstory shit going on. Yeah. While little Wayne is not performing the Super Bowl.
Starting point is 04:23:15 Right. Right. I can dig it. Yeah, that's sad. That's so sad. Yeah, that's like really sad. Like, come on, my nigga. For real, bro.
Starting point is 04:23:27 You're that insecure, man. Like, come on. It's crazy. It's crazy. Me and you were supposed to be a fanatics. three weeks ago the week before fanatics happens
Starting point is 04:23:40 oh cam and mason signed the contract we bear for fanatics but who's in fanatics I'm gonna start saying name yo it's wild man it's wild
Starting point is 04:23:54 the hate is crazy yeah yeah we'll talk you about it later I don't know if you heard when he just slipped in their pause he just said that yo Jay Z being involved
Starting point is 04:24:04 at fanat fanatics, Fest, apparently they were supposed to show up for some type of contractual appearance, and then they got told, oh, yeah, you guys, no,
Starting point is 04:24:16 don't worry about it, because I got to sign the contract. And so they're looking at it like, what the fuck? Mike, Mike, we'll tell you about it. We got to get bigger, though. Yeah, man. You're right, right.
Starting point is 04:24:25 We'll hold on this stuff, man. And when we come together and get things done much bigger and better, you're right. And we'll hold on to it forever. So I'm with you on that. Yeah. But no, this has none against Kendrick.
Starting point is 04:24:38 Yeah, none against Kendrick. Yeah, we think if any kind of artists deserve it, but Little Wayne not to perform in New Orleans at the Super Bowl, it's kind of tough, man. Yeah, and I just said hot boys because everybody's out, you know? DG out, you know. But what I'm saying is you, you said everything right. But Little Wayne's such a star, he could, you know how many songs he's done with other people,
Starting point is 04:25:01 and then you bring the hot boys out at the end? crazy crazy well I can't speak on the other things but I will ask by the way speaking of Wayne a few people point out they say yo
Starting point is 04:25:18 they said this is the way you y'all want to perform they say yo you say y'all mad at a little way not performing at Super Bowl did you not see my WrestleMania I need your hands up hands up I need your hands up
Starting point is 04:25:31 hands up let's go a millionaire I'm a young money million year I'm a young money So, my name and Lee, my criteria compared to your courage, this isn't fair. I'm a funny real disease like a minstruck. Dude up in league on the sheet. I just tell me about my cause I don't write because I ain't got time.
Starting point is 04:25:57 So a lot of people said that, bro, that performance was garbage. They're like, yo, why the fuck we need this guy to perform at the Super Bowl? And, you know, I do think that Wayne would come with a great performance. Also, you know he would bring a bunch of guests and lot of people show him love. So me in particular, I don't think it's necessarily, oh, he's that bad a performer. He should not be on that stage. So I'm going to reject that instantly, okay? Travis Coppe.
Starting point is 04:26:44 Hey, up, you know, big a fucking let him play. Where I'm fucking see a fucking dead. Yeah. Even Travis Scott fucking with it. It's down. Constantly. I respect him for that. Yeah.
Starting point is 04:27:02 Do you make that phone call to Drake every now and then? The phone call say, yo, thanks, bro. For continuing to put out the records. Hey, bro. We have a mutual respect for one another. We used to talk a real lot about what he's doing right now. He had a vision. And he focused and he stayed at a little bit.
Starting point is 04:27:17 He focused and he stayed on his vision and completing his mission. Drake is the biggest audience in the world. The only artists that I think could be as big as Drake is Lil Wayne. And you know Nicky right on the side. You know, shorty's to me, Nick is the best female ever in hip hop history to me. She put in a lot of work. And her numbers don't lie. And I think she took rap where you could put Nikki with the bees, the rees, the cadets,
Starting point is 04:27:46 Yeah. That's never been done before. Yeah. Kim took it far and Missy took it far? They took it, but not to that level. Yeah. Not that level. Missy went a little further than Kim, but not the level where even law.
Starting point is 04:27:58 Shout to Bird, man, man. All right. Anyway, chat, I'm getting fucking off of here, man. I'll be back on tomorrow. I might be doing some IRS shit tomorrow. So please watch out. So if I'm doing an IRS stream tomorrow, there's a couple of things going on that I'm trying to, I got to, like, schedule it to do. So we have the presidential debate.
Starting point is 04:28:22 I don't give a fuck, but I think I would stream watching that. Obviously, our hip-hop topics, so that would be that stream. But I'm supposed to. I don't know. I got to go check him on. I get Silky, but Silky was supposed to come to New York. I was going to IRL stream with him tomorrow. So we'll figure it out.
Starting point is 04:28:44 I might have two streams for you out tomorrow. One, IRL, and one regular hip-hop shit. And then we're going to watch. watch the debate. All right. So chat, I'm getting off here for now. Save my voice a little bit for tomorrow to make sure I'm good, but I appreciate you guys coming in, come checking me out.
