So once again here's your friend get right shining bright in the country doing it as I can trying to chance and get a track and get it right, then I still be all right.
As long as I shine like I do, setting on my grind.
I do it for my crew.
That means me and you.
Thank you again.
Get right.
Doing it for the crew.
The crew.
That's you. Yo, yo. I'm trying not to interrupt you.
The Donnell Rawlings Show, live in your face.
Fuck y'all bitch ass niggas.
You'll never take my place, niggas. Thank you. the person that probably introduced this podcast right now is probably a person that you've all been familiar with over the last year.
He's a person that has been through the storm and the rain.
He's a person that became a part of the heart and soul of this podcast.
When I say that, because he has heart and soul.
You know this guy is Get Right.
Right?
Right, Gary? No doubt. No You know this guy is Get Right. Right? Right, Gary?
No doubt.
No doubt.
The history of Get Right.
If you just introduced this podcast and you don't know who Get Right is, Get Right is what Dave Chappelle called my COVID angel.
He came in my life at a time when the world was miserable.
Came in my life at a time where everybody was upset.
Everybody was nervous.
Nobody wanted to go outside and talk.
Nobody wanted to communicate. Nobody wanted to do anything anything and he just became a part of my life and
every time i felt that i was going in an area of being in the dumps and i needed something to lift
me up this motherfucker would show up and it was right at the beginning of the pandemic too right
it was right at the beginning of the pandemic i forgot about that and it was like it was times
when we're like nobody knew what we were going to do with this pandemic.
We was just trying to figure out everything. People were like,
don't go outside. Don't go outside. Don't cough. Don't do this
every day. What can we do? Can we do that? We can't do this.
What can we do? What can we do today? They change it.
They change it. My mic is off. They change it.
CDC said what? Niggas didn't even know what a
CDC was.
I thought a CDC was like something
you buy at a pawn store, you know?
Like at a pawn shop, at a liquor store.
Shit, yo, got these CDCs.
I got earth, wind, and fire.
I got silky soul.
I got these CDCs.
Can I borrow them?
No, my brother.
You got to get your own.
So he came at a time like that.
And then a couple months ago, and he was going through it.
But one thing I can say about this guy, and this guy was a homeless guy that had so much character right dearie oh definitely
when i used to run into him you know i know this sounds crazy but he was always clean-shaped he was
always like dressed nice he never smelled bummy or homelessly you know what I mean if that's a word but you
know what I mean I'm not being
insulted but you know most bum
niggas smell like shit no I'm
just yo no yo it was more like a
person trap he was like going
he's trans he was like in
between no he was not a homeless
person man he was doing push-ups
and pull-ups he was like 65 year
old no you know what you know what you know-year-old warrior. You know what?
You know what?
You know what?
You know what?
You're right.
You know what?
That's a good point, Derry.
I don't think he ever connected with being homeless.
I think he just like this.
I just sleep outside.
Exactly.
I'm adventurous.
I'm a river nigga.
Yeah, he's a country boy visiting the city and just sleeping outside, doing his push-ups. He's definitely had the mindset of a real fucking solid warrior.
A warrior.
But he never smelled like a bum nigga.
I understand, son, but I'm just saying, on average, if you are in Times Square or any of those places, right,
and you walk down a hallway, right, and it's a a smell and you don't even have to have anybody there and you like you'll save yourself dearie dearie you'll say yourself god
damn smell like some homeless i am not disrespecting the homeless people i'm just saying
you know a lot of times it's hard to keep up with your hygiene if you're homeless right okay right for all you
i can't believe he said it you because most uh homeless into the streets state
right yes honesty exactly honesty yeah you can't get right didn't stink son right
and that's why it's hard to give some people money sometimes
because you're like whoa you know i'm saying i'll put it over here but get right he kept
himself up and everything and i always just see him i talked to him and then a couple of months
ago he just fucking disappeared right he disappeared and i was nervous because you know
being a person of the street if you don't see someone for a while it's a couple of things that you think you think oh shit uh he's locked up or he's dead that's the first thing and
you don't want to think that because i told him the last time i saw him i said yo bro i don't
know next time i'm gonna see you and he told me he said man just look up in the sky you'll always
see me i'm like nigga you going to heaven on me yo he prepping me for heaven i thought you
know how niggas be like this you know those last like when you know a nigga about to do something
like you know a motherfucker coming to you like this dear and say some shit like this
like you you seen him been in the dumps for a couple days right and then he says some shit
like this to you dear look at me i just want to know i always listen to your raps you know what i'm saying yeah you like
where you going and i didn't know i was going to see him and i didn't see him for a while and i
used to take the journey of driving around where i know he frequents and i would look for him and
i just it was just like every time i did it was it was more angst than on Family Feud.
Right? I didn't give up,
but I was just like, just hope he's in a good
place. Then I had
his sister's number. I called
her randomly, and I was like, listen,
I'm Donnie Rollins. I haven't
talked
to a senior brother in a while. I'm just hoping.
She was like, he's in Mississippi.
And you know what I said, dear? Nigga, I brother in a while. I'm just hoping. She was like, he's in Mississippi. And you know what I said, dearie?
Nigga,
I bought you a phone.
Yeah. Yo, I'm like,
she said, what? I said, she said,
and her voice was so happy, she
didn't even do God, because last time
I talked to her, she was like, oh God, because she
hadn't talked to him for a while. And she said, God,
Donnell, thank you, God, oh Lord,
and everything. she answered the
phone ain't mentioned no god she said she said oh yeah he's in mississippi out there
getting right now and i'm like the thing you're missing he called me maybe he didn't games out
here in this right and then i called him games out no he got there i told her what are y'all
talking about and he called me he got a new phone. He called me. And the motherfucker sounded so happy.
He sounded.
I don't know if this is actual sound.
He sounded like he was sleeping in the bed.
Yeah, that's got to be a thing.
That's got to be a thing.
He sounded like he'd been sleeping in the bed, like yawning.
I don't think you can yawn on cardboard.
Can someone yawn on cardboard?
I don't think you can yawn on cardboard. Can someone yawn on cardboard? I don't think you can even sleep good
because you're probably worried about
somebody waking you the fuck up.
Right, so now we're reconnected.
Let me tell you something about Get Right.
Everybody's like, we love Get Right.
Get Right has changed.
Yo, Get Right.
He's got right. that nigga got a bed yo they got a room in a bed he talked to me
yo dearie the level the way he talked man i'm a fan he was disrespecting you yo he was just
yo this motherfucker told me what yo yo it was so funny because you know the people gave him some money right and i had i never
give him all the money right and then he needed some cash so i said yo i i yo get right got the
cash app motherfucker would download yo they might not download a game or anything like that

candle brand and then we moved
over to Lotion shout out to Angela
and her crew
Angela

Lotion was popping
now so now you know I'm the river ninja so now I'm getting into the groove of being a brand
ambassador people are starting to check me on social media they're like oh I got this product
I got this I got that but I don't want to jump on everything because I don't think everything is a
good fit for me another next fit is going to be with THC Design.
Create my own strand
and my own social equity
company.
Then with me starting to be this brand
ambassador, people started to reach out to me.
A shout out to Julius.
Julius is the creative director
for everything down there at Rollins.
He's been the guy that's always been
putting
my brand together. Everything that I do,
he's fucking architects
fucking everything that I do.
It's so funny
because Julius,
when I went into the candle business, it was funny.
He was like, yo, son.
Yo, son, you want to do some candles?
I was like, yeah.
Everybody think I started. He said, I think I got some candles? I was like, yeah. Everybody think I started.
He said, I think I got a candle, bitch.
Right?
He said, I got a candle, bitch.
I was like, yeah, let's get the candle, bitch.
So we got a candle, bitch.
Right?
And I'm not being negative when I say this, because these are all boss people.
And then we went to lotion.
We said, we got a lotion, bitch.
And then Julie said, well, this wasn't a lotion, bitch.
But Julie said, son, do you fuck with coffee?
I was like, yeah, I fuck with coffee.
I'm from the hood.
Coffee was the first thing that represented you think you were an adult.
It was the first thing you could get in the house.
It was like, I can't get that.
Can I have coffee?
No, you're too young.
Kids don't drink coffee.
You know what I'm saying?
In America, in other places, they drink that shit everywhere.
In Germany, they drink gruwein.
That's the heated wine.
You can think the drinking age in Germany is like 16.
Yeah, it's 16, but you can drink when you're younger. You can drink and nobody looks down on you and shit.
And then he was like, yo, son, you drink coffee?
I was like, yeah, I love coffee. He was like, because I got coffee i was like yeah i love i love coffee he was like because
i got these people that want to work with you they want to help you sell coffee i'm like niggas want
me to sell coffee that ain't gangster where the weed at nigga which one of these motherfuckers
want me to help them sell weed so i was like before i ever get into that is this is this is a credible spot is good
Yeah, kind of shit. They got get some samples
Cut to
E and J coffee reached out to my team and they said we've been fan of Don Neal's for years

I said send some samples and let me see how that is i'm gonna get some of my friends to
taste it and maybe we can go into business cut to on the show because this show has been long so far
very long introduction but we don't have a coffee bitch we got a coffee nigga in the studio when i say nigga i mean one who is versed
on coffee coffee being the culture of it yeah i don't know this and you didn't think i was gonna
know this word a barista is that fair yeah yeah barista nigga not only is he a barista he's an asian you know what i'm saying like perfect timing yo
i'm just saying like he a barista asian ass you know what i'm saying because we're gonna
offend we're gonna get everybody all at one time and like if you see his face you would think like
oh donna this is a cheap way to try to befriend the Asian community.
Hey, Don L, you know, stop the Asian hate.
And I don't have no, like, the Asians, right, if y'all don't know, Asians has started a Black Lives Matter.
Right?
Just like the Asian Black Lives Matter, right?
Yeah.
Like, no justice, no peace.
No, no, no, no justice, no rights.
No justice, no rights.
No, is that wrong, that wrong sir no that's funny
because like and i support like i i have a lot of asian friends i really got connected with asian
culture when i was stationed in i was in the air force i was i'm not saying you're korean but i
was stationed in korea right when i was in the air force and I really got to get into like Asian culture not
just from what most people know about Asian culture is usually at a restaurant or at a beauty
supply shop and I yo bruh I damn I feel wrong I'm like I'm like don't get mad you know but that's
the truth I've been inside Asian culture you know and I've said this on other podcasts like
mostly with Asian culture when it comes to, like, the black community.
Because people think they're at odds with each other, don't get along.
Yeah.
But the thing that I found out about Asians don't like about, like, American culture, specifically black, is, like, respect.
Like, the Asian culture is big on respect.
Respect the people, if nothing else, as being an elder.
You know what I'm saying?
Before we get into
like what are your beliefs like just because you're older i should show you a certain amount
of respect you know but and i don't have no hate on no asian i do hate on this one chinese nigga
because he don't never give me no is that wrong no i'm just saying like i'm like this nigga more shrimp nigga is that wrong
is that wrong no it's your food
but and you would not know
that he was Asian from
the first name
that's how they get you son Lorenzo
Delorama
from E&J Coffee you wouldn't know from the
last name either Delorama yeah
you got a lot of shit going on here
you got a lot of shit going on here, bro. You got a lot of shit going on here.
That's a great name.
Del Aramo.
You've been here for,
I think I've been talking
in excess of like 40 minutes,
but it's been cool
to have the Chinese man
in the back
because the black people
going in the front always.
All right?
Okay, we're going to do
Asian Lives Matter,
but y'all not
are skipping the line
and getting in front
of Black Lives Matter.
Let's just say it now.
Y'all can get second, but you're not cutting in front of the line all right that's what i'll say but you're here to discuss but how do you feel right now being asian and i know i know i talk
crazy yeah i know but how do you feel right now about the uh the climate of what's going on with Asian hate.
Do you really think it's like
Asian hate or wrong plates at the wrong time?
I think, to be honest with you,
I think it's wrong plates at the wrong time.
Just the feeling of it.
I mean, obviously you got the Black Lives Matter movement
that came in, and I think...
Well, no politics right
but i think when dot now we're talking about we just like like i know i don't this is one of the
realest parts like are you talking specifically about the dude who killed the asian women we were
he was answering that no i'm just saying that's what i'm saying wrong place yeah because this
whole thing like to be quite honest we didn't know that um like i'm being honest i didn't know that, like, I'm being honest. I didn't know that Asian hate existed.
A what?
That's true.
No, I'm being honest.
Okay, yeah, yeah.
Where would I know it?
Where would I know?
Okay, you say a what, but where would I know Asian hate?
Just life.
I don't know.
No, not life, because I haven't been around people that have treated Asians like shit.
I'm just telling you the truth, because usually the Asians I'm around in my community,
they're somewhat in a position of power.
You know what I'm saying?
For the most part, they have a business or something.
That's how I've been introduced to a lot
of Asians.
It's like,
if black people had no Asians or anything,
it was, follow niggas in the store.
All right, niggas.
Hurry up, buy. You know what I'm saying? But it wasn't no hate right like hurry up bye you know i'm saying yeah
but it wasn't no hate like i hate you for being fucking asians like i hate you for following me
and guess we had the stores the asians you know so was there uh underlining asian hate going on
because it may sound ignorant but i did not feel that i mean it's weird though i think the whole
climate especially in the u.s right i mean like I was raised in the Philippines I came
shadows joke or my nigga automatically because when I was like I was like I
know I said I was like yo you gonna be able to show us what type of Asian are
you bigger right cuz I didn't like it got to get my Asians right, right?
And then when you said Filipino and some others, you got all types of shit going on.
You said Filipino.
I was like, oh, you automatically became my nigga because Joe Coy is my nigga.
Dave Chappelle's wife is my nigga.
And the Filipino bitch is some of the baddest bitches on the planet.
But go ahead.
Oh, thanks.
Yeah, no, no.
I mean, I don't't know like coming here especially um
then it's so funny because you said just right is from mississippi i was actually raised right
get right yeah i was raised in mississippi really yeah um i forgot the town um that's
embarrassing for me but really but there's definitely asian hate in mississippi right
nigga how did you get yo i know this is crazy it's weird. You just want some Asian hate? I know it exists.
No, no, okay.
I know it exists.
But where?
Like what I'm saying.
Where?
Everywhere.
There was like one Asian kid in my school.
How many days out of the year did people pull their eyes and make fucking Asian hate?
I had a nigga like that too in school, but guess what?
Microaggression.
Yo, he was like like I know this is
wrong he was a fresh off
the boat motherfucker right
and we used to try to
make fun of this motherfucker but nobody
wanted to fight this motherfucker this
dude he did some shit where
he pulled out all his fingernails
I don't know
if this motherfucker living whatever but
we knew not to fuck to when we were scared of
them like all day yo when i was coming up all the asian had to do was this right here
yo i know this is wrong if you see an asian dude do any of this or go you like yo he about to beat
the out of you son how did you get to mississippi my aunt was um she got her residency
when she became a doctor but we needed to find a place first like obviously to move in into the
u.s and she was like oh yeah no come and stay with us and she her first location in a hospital was
mississippi it was a small town mississippi yeah it was a small town yeah um yeah so it was really
odd really different.
I'm not going to lie.
So it's so funny.
People, I was, I think the only, I think there was only, there were only two Asians, three Asians tops in my elementary school there.
It was actually really funny.
And how many days out of the year did dudes pull their eyelids back?
No, they did it a lot.
But here's the funny thing, though, because I didn't speak.
Yo, it's you, motherfucker.
Yo, you were the one that hated on Asiansians i mean there it is i can't deny that i that i made jokes about asian people you're
gonna talk about yourself no no i mean but it's fine though because it's not fine now i mean i
mean it's not fine but i mean the idea here is i think everything is just uh i think everything is
just progress In my head
Because like I came here
My English wasn't that great
But you motherfucking Asians
Assimilated faster than anybody
And that's true
Yeah
Anybody
No I'm telling you
I've seen it
I've seen the system
And it's like
Like
Like I see how
Not you but like
The Asians
Come
I'm gonna Damn I'm gonna say The Asian the Asian women come up here, and they set up shop.
They set up shop.
They're like this, okay, we get a tax break if we own this business doing this and selling what to what?
Nigga, we make Chinese food every night.
Why don't we sell it?
I know it sounds crazy, but that was a foundation.
And that was a foundation. Yeah. And that was a foundation.
Then they started, and we're talking about people that migrated here that had no idea what they're going to do, found a way.
And what the motherfuckers do, the next generation, it just gets stronger and fucking stronger. Yeah.
And I noticed they had a system at this place called come cow right it's a very popular uh uh
place for uh chinese food in brooklyn like jay-z has rapped about it's a very good spot
this spot is so loved in the hood that they don't even have bulletproof windows
oh wow yeah in the hood really that yo i mean is that love it was that love bro that motherfuckers
say you cannot you don't know how deep that is, sir.
It was just faces.
You could go, like, give me your change.
Chink.
And no, wow.
Nobody, because it was, like, they respected the community.
The community respected them.
They always had good food.
It was like a spotlight.
It had a little restaurant area.
It was like, yo, I see how niggas doing.
Y'all was up in Comcast.
But the system was, you could tell the different tiers.
Like whoever, this may sound crazy, that spoke the best English answered the phone, son.
I'm not making this shit up. But there is some truth to it some truth to it yo it's a whole bunch of
yo this the tear nigga if your english was good nigga yeah no it's true you gotta we got time for
what what no number 13 nigga you need somebody like this beef and broccoli number 13 what you
want on the side you need somebody to talk like that. Yeah. That person had a job.
Then you had the motherfuckers back there with the wands.
Just cooking. They just cooking.
They don't need a lot of English, nigga.
No, fast communication.
Yo, them motherfuckers don't need a lot of English.
But then, just the level of English.
And then, the delivery motherfuckers, they just need a little bit.
They just need a little bit.
And what they had to do was be able to count.
The money. Yeah, they do was be able to count the
money yeah they had to be able to count I know this sounds crazy no no but it's
real they'd like to deliver motherfucker you could tell what a nigga just got
here cuz they'd be looking at the money like all right they just be looking for
you to say it's right if you're looking at you but it was a system but it it
fueled the next generation to the next generation and then you see two different levels down the motherfuckers that the mufflers came over here to set it up now
Their kids are becoming fucking doctors and lawyers and shit and now it becomes a business
It becomes a big business, but it started from somewhere. That's the starter kit. That's the start. Yeah, that's the starter kit
But when you talk about what you're trying to say
I'm trying to say Chinese niggas were smart about
the Chinese restaurants and then you think about it what food do every if if you
think about any cuisine everyone in america has had chinese food that's true in the world
yeah in the world in the world they not have had indian food they might have had sushi but motherfuckers had that so like when we were like it's just it just threw me off to here because i was like
i was like what the fuck happened because like one day it just felt like like stop the asian
hate just happened one day it just popped off yeah the hashtag blew up and i'm like what the fuck happened and it was a pop-off spot right
yeah i mean it's just insane i mean like to be honest with you like ever since then like you
said like um you said asians started the like they were like one of the fires for the black lives
matter right the thing is when i was in mississippi my um good friends were black. I mean, Asian culture, obviously we're deep and rooted to it,
but we infuse a lot of black culture as well.
Really?
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, I like niggas.
Yeah, no, it's weird.
It's really weird.
For example, I'm not Korean, but friends who are Korean,
friends who are Japanese, a lot of styles.
I love Koreans, man.
I fuck with Koreans, man. I fuck with Koreans. Once they find out that I speak a are Korean, friends who are Japanese, a lot of styles. I love Koreans, man. I fuck with Koreans,
son.
I fuck with Koreans.
Once they find out
that I speak a little Korean,
but bigger than that,
once they find out
that I'm a nigga
that was in Korea,
it's just like
an automatic connection.
Yeah, that's the real deal.
The point I was making
about that is though,
I never felt,
it's weird because
I never felt
when everybody was like
Asian, I hate Asian,
I never felt it.
But then it seems like
I don't know if knowing about it is making people never felt the um whenever i was like asian hate asian i never felt it but then it seems like i
don't know if knowing about it is making people want to hate now because now it's just crazy you
know what i'm saying that's true yeah that's what scares me because if it's a situation like this
yeah asian like the motherfucker didn't know that asian hate had a hashtag yeah but now they think
like yo we supposed to hate on asian so is it triggering people to want to hate on asians because it's big in the news and everything because that's that's
what kills me is because it's so complex you're thinking about it there's like so many tools like
you know ones like i'm not i don't know i'm not against like again politics you know what this is
weird because you ain't even come here for this shit. But I was going down the street looking for an Asian to talk to.
I hope I'm not offensive, but it was just like, well, fuck that.
I'm not apologizing.
Because when the Black Lives Matter shit hit with the George Floyd and everything,
every white podcaster was calling me like, I need to talk to somebody black right now.
No, but I think this is fair because I think any conversation is important.
Like honesty and truth.
I like that.
It's real.
I don't think people understand, like,
there's different levels to racism.
It's like when black women say,
don't touch my hair,
it's understanding the culture, you know?
And it's like a lot of white kids,
when I was a kid,
they didn't think...
It ain't understanding the culture.
It means touch your head,
nigga, you gonna get knocked the fuck out.
But you don't know that as a white person.
You don't know that. What? No, you learn it... You can touch a white girl's hair. Yo, yo, nigga, you gonna get knocked the fuck out. But you don't know that as a white person. You don't know that. No, you learn
it. You can touch a white girl's
hair. Yo, yo, yo, Deary.
Deary. Deary. I know it.
Deary. Where'd you learn it?
Exactly.
Like,
yo, you know.
Right.
You know. Yeah, I know. Yeah, I know.
Yeah, but you know why you need to know because white
dudes really think it's real white dudes be thinking black chicks hair they be like this
whoa your hair grew really fast and watch how short it's tomorrow and watch how curly it is
next week and then watch how fucking it's gonna be in some fucking dreadlock ponytails next week
you know what white people don't know? What percentage of black
women's hair is real and what's not?
Is every black woman's hair
that has any amount of hair
not real? No, it's always real
but it's just an add-on.
Well, I mean an extension, you know what I mean?
Some of them got like...
Some of them got...
You know what I'm saying?
You got these right here.
Them motherfuckers got that little cap on, nigga.
Them bitches, whoa.
Can't fuck with that one.
I am not trying to fuck with a bitch.
All right, so listen, man.
We ain't going to make you responsible for the whole Asian community.
Yes, we are.
You're responsible for every Asian we know.
Cambodian, Vietnamese, Korean.
No, I'm just joking.
No, but I like it, though.
Give me the questions.
It's good.
Yo.
Ask him, do you experience hate?
Let me see.
Have I experienced?
Okay.
I mean, honestly, when I moved towards Connecticut and New York, yeah, on some parts, of course.
Like, what?
Upstate, right?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
They hate everything that ain't white up there.
That's the place.
You would be a chink there.
I'd be a nigga there.
But it's fine.
I mean, like, for me, it's like, I know it's weird.
But for me, I'm, my mom's Filipino, but she's like hard, like hardcore strong.
So she's like, you better be ready.
And like when I went to high school here in California, like I play, you know, like for me, it's like I play basketball.
Filipino women built different.
Yeah.
They built strong.
Filipino women, they built strong filipino women they build strong when i say that they fucking work and they keep a
fucking house and family together bruh true and steal most of the values and everything yeah am
i correct no my mother is literally my role model yes and then like and this is this true in the
asian community this is what i noticed about like especially like in the korean culture and shit korean fathers don't know this sounds
weird don't really love their kids i mean they feel like they fuck with their kids but they
don't fuck with their kids i've heard i'm not i'm not gonna say anything but i've heard stories i
don't know i mean i know like like people like where they just their fathers haven't been there but you know what
in their sense of what they need and i'm telling you what and i know that right the father's like
they fuck with the kids but they don't fuck around they ain't gonna be on all of you
like they ain't all that motion because they feel like this listen fuck. This is what I'm here to do. Provide and protect.
And I will
do that. I'll let mommy
do the emotions.
I don't have time for that. I don't have time for it.
You do all
of that. I'll do right
and wrong, give you some character lessons,
but at the end of the day, I'm here to
provide and protect.
That's my job. So fuck everything else.
And fuck you, Junior.
You know what I mean?
I didn't even want you.
I just had a good day at work.
I wanted to fuck again.
And you know your mom, always pregnant.
You know what I'm saying?
That's what I get from that.
Yeah, I don't know what it is.
The culture.
But it's what you said, though.
You made a point, which is it's a business, right?
You raise a family. You create a legacy here. You, it's a business, right? You raise a family.
You create a legacy here.
You raise a doctor.
You raise lawyers.
You raise businessmen.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You don't raise them.
They make them.
Yo, yo, they don't, they don't, they're not into, like.
No, no.
When I say that, like, they make them.
They're not into, like, so so what are you going to be?
Follow your dreams.
It's not like that.
That's true.
It's like this.
You are going to be this.
Yeah.
You're going to be this.
There are some.
Now, if you don't do any, you're going to be this.
This is what we are working for.
It's like a scale.
This is what you're going to be.
And if you're not that, you're down there,
and then that's where we're going to have an issue
when you be down here.
Everything else is failure.
That's sad.
That's really sad.
It's the truth, though.
It is the truth, though.
It is the truth.
Yeah.
You know, everything else is failure.
But guess what?
When you think like that,
the percentage of it actually happened is a lot greater.
Yeah. that the percentage of it actually happened is a lot greater yeah that's why um i when i when asian hate first came i'm like i don't really feel that because most asians i know are very
much in a position of power yeah they fucking run shit you know i got fired from a job because
fucking asians in new york didn't um didn't like one of my jokes.
And that's so you know, I was back on the road.
Yeah, it's
pretty crazy. But we didn't, I keep
on saying, it's hard not to talk to an Asian
about Asian shit when he's Asian.
But I really liked your honesty
and transparency about it.
And not representing the Asian culture,
but at least let me get my thoughts out.
So we got together, Julius, my creative director, and not representing the Asian culture, but at least let me get my thoughts out.
So we got together.
Julius, my creative director,
found this company, E&J Coffee.
E&J Coffee were interested in me.
They're fans of me.
They're fans of the Dave Chappelle Show.
I'm not a fan of Julian's motherfucking pussy-eating mustache.
We're going to put that up there.
You'll never trust a motherfucker that got the mustache. if you buy a mustache wax oh no if you buy mustache wax you probably got cock rings and all
that old freaking shit but they got together they gave me some samples and i won't say surprisingly
but i really enjoyed the coffee if anybody's followed me in the morning of my life, I say, who up?
We up.
Who sleep?
They sleep.
And I always wake up with a cup of, it sounds gross to some people, but a cup of 7-Eleven coffee.
And Julian said, we got to upgrade this motherfucker.
We got something a little better than your 7-Eleven coffee.
How did you, as an Asian, you Asian-American Mexican?
Spanish, yeah. Yeah, you're Asian-American, Mexican? Spanish, yeah.
Yeah, this motherfucker, everything.
This motherfucker's Spanish and fucking Asian shit, so you tell yourself don't hurry up by?
You follow yourself around in the store?
Come on, that's so funny.
That's pretty funny.
I love that.
No, see, that's where people, it's weird.
You're not the only one.
Everyone looks at me like, what are you?
I know. That's called racially ambiguous, it's weird. You're not the only one. Yeah. Everyone looks at me like, what are you?
I know.
That's called racially ambiguous, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, damn.
But you had bitches in high school and shit, right?
No, actually.
No bitches?
None.
How?
You guys look like that.
Oh, thanks.
No, no. I was a late bloomer.
In height or what?
Just height.
I mean, height-wise, I was like 5'8 like coming in i'm just 5'9 now but
like the thing is um i don't know like i was just you were scared of pussy like i was no i wasn't
scared it's just it's weird scared of pussy it's weird well i think it's just i love sports. I played sports. Yeah, yeah. You're a pussy. No, I don't even know what to say.
I was just.
Who plays sports not to get ass?
Yo, you play sports just to go do homework after the game?
I just had to practice.
No, but during.
Okay, but during.
I had to practice.
I had these eight hour dribbles.
But during high school, I was at.
So, like during prom dates and stuff.
Like, okay, yeah.
I guess there was.
You were socially awkward.
There was a little.
I was socially awkward in
a way where i didn't know how to interact with a woman for me i i learned that like i knew how to
talk to people but did you interact with guys because we don't even know what your preference
is oh no no no daddy i ain't trying to be funny when i asked you that i did not try to like that's
like the most honest way no no i'm full on i'm full on straight yeah yeah because they got
different shit they got different shit.
They got a joint now called pansexual, which means pansexual means like if somebody talk about something you like, you can fuck them.
Yeah, anything. Like if you like a meal, it's like, oh, my God, was that grilled octopus?
Like, I'm sucking his dick.
I mean, her dick.
Who made the octopus?
You know what I mean?
They got pansexual.
They got sexuals out there.
Yeah, I know what you mean.
Yeah.
Yeah, they got sexuals out there that you can do something,
and then you don't have to connect with all types of sexless out there.
All kinds of sexless.
Yeah, I think it's going to come down to one thing, like just fuck.
You know what I mean?
They're like, what'd you fuck?
I fucked air today.
I'm on a different shit.
I'm an airsexual.
I fuck air.
I fuck oxygen.
There's some people, you know, they fuck basketballs and they fuck literally rubber themselves.
I heard niggas do the motherfucking, what's that shit called?
The pocket?
What's that shit called?
The fleshlight.
The pocket pussy.
The pocket pussy. Yeah, the fleshlight.
Somebody told me that shit is nice.
Somebody said, they'd say, yo, you have to deal with it.
She'd say, my husband loves it.

My flirting game was interesting, but then it just got good.
So you hit a pocket.
You hit a pocket.
Yo, let's, you know what?
Started hitting that zone.
I used to have a thing for white chicks and I used to.
You used to.
So disrespectful.
I'll tell a joke about how I used to go to Starbucks, but I couldn't speak.
So you speak fluent Starbucks.
Yes.
That is a thing.
That's true.
That is a thing.
Nick.
It's weird, right?
I had a nickname that I got from my school.
So I went to, shout out to University, UCSB.
So in UCSB, it's known to have, they're known to have pretty people, like lots of white
girls, lots of white girls

Oh my God. Then what was after that?
She's like, but I want mocha

2.3 pumps of mocha.
I'm like, what's 2.3?
She said 0.3? Yeah, 0.3.
She does coke. She wanted to go back to doing some coke. You those grams and stuff like that you like you know and then what was what
else was and then she said 2.3 and then she says exactly top it off with a bit of like half a pump
vanilla but make sure it's half a pump i gotta see that and i'm like wow dude that's crazy and
you made it i mean i had to make it you didn't have to make it that's certain
shit make motherfucking take their shirt off certain shit no you have to make it starbucks
you probably have to make it right because i was the barista there so what does skinny
skinny no whip mean skinny no whip mean meaning like just uh non-fat or uh it's an alternative
to like either not non-dairy with no no it's a latte what's the latte the latte yeah oh it's an alternative to like either not non-dairy with no no what's a latte
what's a latte the latte oh it's the most basic drink when I say basic what's
the difference in a latte and a cappuccino the difference is that
cappuccino is like foamy cloud it's like when you pick it up it's like cloud very
like y'all's cappuccino like y'all's yeah but cabochino is like that I guess
hard for me to order a cabochino in that picture I can't capuchino is like the
faint like it's really like you know like when people say can have a
cappuccino it's like yo in Brooklyn where I used to live if you say you want
a cappuccino niggas be like this I think son suck a dick now I don't know why
cappuccinos associated with being gay did they just try to make a case like
cappuccino-ass nigga?
But it sounds kind of like Al Pacino.
So we got this coffee together, right?
And I took some of the coffee to Yellow Spring
with all my friends, and they love it.
And we have,
what's the best way to drink coffee?
I mean, I don't know.
I tell people all the time there's no perfect way,
but the way I like to do it is through a French press.
French press.
French press.
You literally infuse the coffee in the water.
For people that don't know what a French press is,
what exactly is it?
I know what it is, but if some people are just,
damn, he gay, son.
He got dudes talking about French presses.
What is a French press?
It's just a simple coffee
infuser thing where you press down coffee and you literally put it in and you do you i say like
that's where the coffee and the hot water like have sex they're just like making love and you
have to wait a bad bath and beyond they have a device it's not a french press but it's a real
cheap device and you it's like look like a suction cup right the arrow oh the arrow press yeah i was
on that hard at one time it's a good i was impressed the shit out of bitches with that
it looks so simple but it is it a good way to get a good cup of coffee yes it is it's actually
it's like one of the perfect i brought my um flare espresso machine it's an espresso machine
but handheld right and so you press its manual aero press is like the i say the in between between a pour over and uh espresso machine
a pour over is just you pour water filter in the grain in the grains so yeah so your pour over
literally looks just like this oh shit do that impress bitches like white bitches love that right
yeah no they do like people like girls from like starbucks they love the whole thing like
the pour over yeah i was are we gonna make one now that's the question i got i mean what's happening
yeah i want to what do you have now can we i just want to i'm just the reason why i'm doing this
because there's people that watching this are not in the coffee game like that yeah i'm just getting
in the coffee game and the reason why i got in the coffee game because i tasted i was like this
shit is fire i don't know nothing about pour overs and shit. That's why I'm trying to educate myself.
You see, America used to do the Chinese eyes.
So, but there is, is there, it's coffee.
There's a culture.
Is there a culture for coffee?
Yeah, there is.
But I'm trying to break the barrier for that.
Because the thing is.
The coffee barrier?
Yeah.
Well, because the thing is, when I was a barista at Starbucks, I reason why people love me in terms of my interaction is because I don't believe in the whole bougie and being like, yeah, what's up?
It's cool.
I like being cool, but I like when people feel welcome.
Right.
That idea.
And coffee culture is, I say, a little bougie.
You talk to the baristas.
They're very picky in what they do.
But I'm the guy
i'm the dude yes i mastered picky but at the same time i'm the guy like yeah well you know make
whatever you want it's like yeah because one of my friends he's a coffee fred yannet yeah and
like he's like a bean head yeah right and he was just talking about he on coffee like oh you got
to make sure the beans are harvested a certain time and it's only a
certain time of year they have to once they're grounded they have to be served at a certain time
yeah is it that serious with coffee that's too serious like not not to roast your friend
but that to be mean but like yeah that's a bit too serious because i mean he's french too because
the is cocky and arrogant yeah like like not like not to like i i'm not a huge fan of, like, people who are, you know.
Talk down to coffee motherfuckers?
Yeah, because that's just weird.
I feel like if you're going to make, like, in a business standpoint,
if you're going to make money in coffee, like, you've got to relate to people.
You know what a bodega light and sweet is?
Is that because he said it was like the Styro cup was the coffee, right?
Yeah, like in New York.
Why is it light and sweet?
You know how you got the latte vente no whipped cream two pumps
yeah motherfuckers in new york you order coffee at a bodega they like what you want light and sweet
or black no if you say regular that's light and sweet like they say you want coffee like how many
sugars maybe like this how many sugars? Five sugars, three creams.
I know what you're talking about.
Shit don't even look like coffee.
I'm telling you, coffee's one of those things that for some reason you feel tough and you feel educated.
When I first started drinking coffee, it's because I wanted to read a newspaper.
Right.
And it feels like you cannot, like you're an idiot.
And who reads a newspaper without a cup of coffee?
It's like that's how it starts today.
That's how the day starts.
So you've been to Marista, and you fucking chicks in Starbucks.
You fucking chicks in Starbucks because they love your coffee joint.
You know how to do the French press, and you're loving.
So give people the breakdown of my coffee that you love.
It's right here.
Your coffee's a special roast, by the way. What makes my...
Okay.
What makes something a special roast?
Well, yours is a single origin bag.
Motherfucker.
Yeah.
Single origin.
So when you buy...
Okay, best example I can tell you
is that when people buy coffee,
especially in grocery stores,
if you've seen like coffee blend, right?
They call it blends.
Yeah.
You never want that.
Wow.
The reason why is that you get the lowest quality of coffee.
It's like pre-rolls in weed, right?
Yeah.
You get all the itsy-bitsy and you put them all together.
Yeah, you get your high, but...
It's like sausage.
Yeah.
It's like sausage.
It's like scraps.
Yeah, it's scraps.
But those people just want caffeine.
Yeah, basically.
And that's the thing. It's like coffee yeah cheap shit yeah but there's sometimes i'm not gonna lie
there are sometimes i do like added coffee there are times when i just like crave a quick you know
instant or crave it's what you said like gasoline coffee there's been times i don't i don't know why
i mean but that's the thing but yeah single origin coffee is the best because yours is from guatemala
single origin great uh great temperature great things is the best because yours is from Guatemala. Single-origin, great temperature, great things.
And the best part about that is what makes your coffee special.
It has a balance of acidity and fruitiness and, I think, nuttiness and chocolate.
You got everything in it.
Yo, Paul, Paul, son, my shit fruity and nutty.
Fruity and nutty, bro.
Well, when I say fruity, yours is more on the nuttier and chocolatier sense.
Some people like that.
The white kids will be like this.
I want that nutty chocolate, Joe.
So you got something you're going to do right now?
What is that?
Is that a French press?
This is a French press.
French press?
Yeah.
So I'll showcase it to you.
It's pretty simple.
I always tell people when they drink coffee, the best thing to do is just enjoy it straight up.
But with a French press, everything is time.
What do you mean?
You got to do it.
What do you mean?
Well, because here, the pour over is quick, right?
You quick and easy.
You pour it in.
You go slowly.
So wait a minute.
Where is it?
So where are the grinds, coffee grinds?
So the coffee grinds are here.
No, you're set up right now in the French press.
Now, is that coffee and hot water now?
The hot water is here.
This is going to be.
I'm going to pour.
Oh, I see.
I couldn't see.
It looks tinted.
So I didn't know.
It looks like it was full of coffee already. no yeah i was thinking that's just about to
turn into buffalo cold coffee i was like i know no no no yeah i'll i'll serve it the way i'm not
sure julian told me before i came here he's like julian yeah i'm just joking yeah but he says like

I'm like, and then I would end with the line like,
you know, there's more of where that came from.
Oh, man, that's the oldest shit, man.
That's the black line.
You stealing lines from niggas in the locker room.
But I'm telling you.
So a person doesn't drink coffee,
but I'm Donnell Rawlings wants you to buy his coffee.
What other uses could my coffee serve in someone's house?
What makes Donnell Rawlings coffee special?
Or I'd say like what makes-
Donnell.
Donnell.
Yes.
What makes it special?
The design.
Look at the design when you're drinking coffee.
Yo, it is the design.
But this is very,
one thing I like about this,
I start this thing when I get up in the morning,
I motivate, inspire people.
One thing I like about this is that
it has every color hand up here.
That's what-
It has every color.
That's true.
And that is
something that really means a lot to me because it doesn't take it doesn't have to just be one race
to get up it doesn't have to be one race it gets motivated yeah it could be everybody okay I know
this is when people are it's kind of corny that you feel this way down here but there's only one
love how much more time we got before we try this French press? So how do I get... So this goes to
the pour over?
No, it's done. The pour over's different.
Now I'm going to press it down.
We don't have a close-up. We're not zooming in now.
He was about
to get stupid spiritual, and then
he was just like, fuck it. Are we done?
Five minutes is up. Do you like your
coffee one-hearted or just straight up black? Black.
Black. I like my women black.
White.
So disrespectful.
Just because I'm free.
My chakras connect with all colors.
You like your coffee like you like your women.
All different colors.
That would be the real truth.
So this coffee. This is be the real truth. So this coffee,
and this is not even my coffee.
I haven't drank a coffee in like eight months,
by the way, so I'm going to be a good gauge.
Yeah, but you know what?
Once I told people I had coffee, they were like, where can I get it?
Go to DonAaronRollins.com.
And I know it's going to be exclusively
at one of my favorite coffee shops in Yellow Springs,
Dino's. Angela Yee
has a new coffee shop she's starting. I'm going to there and this coffee is gonna be one of your favorite blends and the fact that
you can wake up with me in your mouth pause pause means so much horenzo thank you came in here with
an apron and shit fucking all the white chicks at Starbucks.
Is this a certain style of coffee mug right here?
What is this?
Yeah, simple.
The bartender, he told me that this is his really cool mug.
Yeah.
So when you drink coffee.
Shout out, Ricardo.
Well, I mean, it's up to you. If you want to do it just the regular way or the professional way is you would take a sniff, like wine.

This is what
This is coffee right here
What makes this coffee.
African-based coffees you can drink without milk.
Just honey in that.
Yeah.
Interesting.
So that's different from the Guatemalan?
The Guatemalan, what makes it cool
and what makes it nice is that it's much more balanced
with coffee.
That's more like if you were to,
like dessert and just enjoying it.
I think African-based coffee is just good throughout the day
if you're like, I'm thirsty the is there a caffeine difference in uh in african coffee or
guatemalan or costa rican coffee there's um or in this coffee specifically do we know like the
caffeine the only ratio the only ratios of coffee you'll ever get from like donald's and stuff it's
