Starting point is 00:03:19 We are going to give him his flowers again today. But we're going to talk about everything because comedy world is so hot and we need to talk about it. But right now, money only, motherfucking teen cake. Top, off top. Kevin Hart's Rose.
Starting point is 00:03:37 Hilarious. Hilarious. Hilarious. Not offended. Oh, hell, no. Okay. So what, why is everyone in comedy? I'd watch the roast, right?
Starting point is 00:03:49 Yes. And then, um, I had watched. I believe something that God-free had posted. And he was like, you know, Roads was like meant to go too far. Like it's meant to offend people. Is that something you agree with in total? I totally agree. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:06 The thing about the Roads to me, out of all these things, I should have fucked Cheryl Underwood years ago. What? Because Cheryl blew up, you know. I went out with her. No, I think I had ideas of going out with her. Okay. But she's too loud.
Starting point is 00:04:25 And me being the kind of nigger, I'd have to smack the bitch. Right. So I had to leave. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait. She's loud in real life or just the stage. She's loud all the time. Oh, okay, okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:04:35 I don't like aggressive women, but that's what makes her so good as a comedian. Right. You know, but I like soft women and talk polite and all that kind of stuff. Me, I'd have been in jail fucking with show on the way. But a lot of people said that people went too far because they were talking about her husband who... But she approved on all that. Commit. I can't.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Let me ask. Now, this is outside of looking at this inside looking out, right? I'm not, I love comedy, but obviously I'm not in a roast world, like, things like that. So from what I'm told, there's people who have writers, right? Yes. And you approve the writers or how? Well, the person, and you're a roast, the person writes about you. They have to set it to you to see if you agree with it.
Starting point is 00:05:16 And if you agree with it, you sign up on it and they could do whatever they want to do. Oh, so you know every roast, though? Every roast. Not every row. Okay. But I think this one was just a little. that's the way they went, how they did business. Yeah. So she knew what was coming.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Yeah, she definitely said that she knew. Yeah, she knew what was coming. Wow. But in today's world, that's what you want. You want confusion. You want people to get upset. You want people to get emotional. Because people don't like boring shit. People don't like honesty.
Starting point is 00:05:45 They like lies. They like stuff just over the top and controversy. So it was excellent. Because it really got me to watch the roast. Because I don't do the road stuff Okay You know, I'm watching all that stuff Okay And when I heard about
Starting point is 00:05:58 I said, let me see this Because I had to be up on my game For these interviews Because you got to be knowledgeable But when I was watching it I couldn't have this type of conversation With you got But I love that
Starting point is 00:06:08 I thought that motherfucker was hilarious The rock went in The rock went in Now in the rock You know, comedy is part true You hide behind what it's really And he really wanted to fuck Kevin Hart's wife
Starting point is 00:06:20 He said it a lot He said too much. He said it too much. You know, and I said, oh, looking at her with the Google. Yeah, I'm looking at him, right? I can see one time. That motherfucker said this shit a couple times. I said, oh, he want to fuck his wife.
Starting point is 00:06:35 I don't want to fuck his wife. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I would have, I would have fuck his wife. I'm not the one? No. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Now, Jack knew how I am, so I can talk to Jack's away. I'm doing my interview. Shut up to fuck up. You know, okay. He knows. I'm like that. I'm like a big brother. Okay, but, all right, so, because I'm just wanting to get some comedy insight, right?
Starting point is 00:06:59 Uh-huh. Because I don't like the guy, Tony Hitchcliff. Hitchcliff, right? Um, he, he, is, for me, he just, too. Here's what it is about him. Okay, okay. He has a white boy irritating look about his ass. Shane is a white, irritated person.
Starting point is 00:07:15 He didn't irritate me. Yeah. Okay, certain white people, right, Shane. Certain white people are comfortable, but you know, deep down the, they grandparents were sorry, slave owner. And they carry that into this generation, right? And you can see that. It's like in the DNA.
Starting point is 00:07:28 He gets mad red. He's the type of guy you like, you dislike him. And on the low, you hit him in his motherfucker's face because you don't like him. So that's the air he gets off. But not to take away from his talent. Right. There he's dog. Right.
Starting point is 00:07:41 To deliver what he was saying back to back to back to back to back. Right. It takes years to develop that type of timing. Right. He's phenomenal, yo. Right. Right. So the only person I know that can go ahead and head with him is a Cat Williams.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Oh, Kat killed it too. Now, yeah, yeah. Let's talk about that. Now, now, now, I'm going to be honest. I don't think Kat told no jokes. No, no, no. He didn't tell no jokes. And here's the thing that's really to me.
Starting point is 00:08:12 That's the funny. I still think they don't like you, Joe. No, I love it. I love that. When they made up, that was the act. Yes, I love that, though. But we need something. You know, Ruffter competes against the United States.
Starting point is 00:08:24 States, it's all competition. As long as it doesn't get to buy it and that kind of stuff, it is what it is. Everybody has a nemes. Now, I saw it live, right? Now, bus it. Now, the day before, I believe the day before, it was like the rock nation of comedians. Yes. Right?
Starting point is 00:08:41 And you had Eddie out there. You had Dave Chappelle. You had all these people out there, right? So I saw, I'm sitting there stalking it. Yes. And I'm trying to see as cat. and Kev going to be in the same picture together because I'm seeing Kev on certain feeds
Starting point is 00:09:00 and then I'm seeing Kat on the other feed. So I don't know if they plant this or not, okay? But when Kat actually came out, I'm watching it live. Like this is like, you know, this is the live. I'm watching it live and I was like, yo, for me, as a person that comes from hip-hop
Starting point is 00:09:16 that sees famous beef squashed, for it to be happened on that stage and still do it in a comedic. Whittick. Like he, like, Cat was ranking on him. Yeah. Like he, I did not hear not one joke, but everything was funny as ever. So
Starting point is 00:09:35 did you expect that? Yeah, absolutely. Okay. The thing that was so great about that. Wait, you expected that cat that was going to come out? You know, no. I didn't understand. When cat came out, I was impressed. Okay. Yeah, they got me. I like surprises. Right. Yeah, I liked that. The thing that I liked about that Rose is Kevin got to say
Starting point is 00:09:50 the last heard at the end. Right. Right. He was going to let you get him. and he don't say nothing. And I love how he came back and talked about Kat. Like, what motherfucker read 10,000 books a year. And that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:10:04 So he got his, he got his shots back in. So it was just a really great, great roast. Right. Great roast. I think, I'm gonna be honest. I think comedians are having a great year.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Like, even the beef fart, even like, if you think about it, like, even with a little thing with Martin Wade's, people with 50 cents, that made it, that made it, like, I don't want problems. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm too old for problems. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Yeah, like when I, that's why I stay out of everybody's way. Like, you know, because, you know, you, you know, I take magnesium and all that shit. I ain't got time for that shit, you know. But you feel what I'm trying to say? Like, it feels like comedy is having a moment right now. It's having a moment. It's having a moment. I'm just, um, it's good for comedy.
Starting point is 00:10:50 It doesn't put asses in the seats. It just got us getting us attention on social. media. Okay. I avoid the clownness, the goofiness, and people out of the line. You know how I am. I'm a man supposed to be a man. And that's the way you go.
Starting point is 00:11:05 So when I see all that kind of stuff, it's ignorant to me. But, you know, it is what it is. I watch it from afar and I stay out the way. As long as my name don't get caught up in nothing. I'm straight. Because at one point, it felt like comedians was trying to be rappers. And it was like everyone was going at each other. Like it was like beef.
Starting point is 00:11:22 I didn't want nothing to do with that. Yeah. Yeah. You got to remember, this is, I'm almost 70 years old. So to see all this type of shit, man, you know, I'm a senior citizen. What? Shit, it's for real. What?
Starting point is 00:11:36 You get half off at aha? Always. Yeah. Suddenly get apple off. I mean, but I'm going to boogey now. I don't eat at a half as well. So where you get half off at? Oh.
Starting point is 00:11:45 I like going to the movies and half off the movies? Yeah. Oh, shit. Yeah. So you get half off of the movies? Yeah, yeah. Your black ass. in the movie. Get your ass. It's a good feeling
Starting point is 00:11:56 in the movie. Yeah, you know. Because you have more extra money for candy, chip. Right, right. So you announce it, you'd be like, yeah, I'm a, I'm a Yeah, they don't believe me. And I love show my ID. I love show my ideas. I love show my ideas. The beautiful feelings. And let me tell you something. For people who follow you, you really be in that gym, bro. Oh, yeah, I'm in the gym,
Starting point is 00:12:14 yeah. So how did you dedicate that? Because I follow you and I realize you really do this shit every day. I even hate you this morning. Yeah. And I just finished my shit. You was like, I'm on a six-mile walk. now as we speak. Right. So, like, what made you develop that dedication? Because, you know, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, I probably had something to do with track when I was running track in high school and college.
Starting point is 00:12:36 And, and, um, when you have something to, you know, you got to look good on stage. Right. You know, you have to take care of yourself. Right. And I really like this life. Right. So that's why I go to doctor every three months. So I'm in competition with myself.
Starting point is 00:12:50 Every three months. Yeah. I go every three months. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I was battling on colon cleansing. it before. Yeah, I go, I do competition. I'm competing. I'm competing against myself every three months.
Starting point is 00:12:59 So then I go into the doctor, my numbers are right. See, a lot of people don't know their numbers. Right. So I know my numbers. So if something's a little all, I make sure by the time I come back, she gives me straight bill of health. You're talking about his blood work for anybody who don't know. Right, right, exactly.
Starting point is 00:13:16 What numbers are you talking about? Yeah, but that's good. You've got to be left out. You know, prostate and all that kind of stuff. Now, my prostate was elevated. the last time a little bit I found the way to keep me from fuck with all the holes. I masturbate a lot. You know?
Starting point is 00:13:29 So, masturbation keeps me discipline. My doctor knew. Like, she said, yeah, Mr. Kirkland, your price is elevated a little bit. What does that mean? And then she said, have you been masturbating? And it was embarrassing
Starting point is 00:13:44 because you can hear through the walls. But how did they know the difference? Because the blood numbers. Yeah, the blower. Yeah. But how do you know the difference between when you emancipating when you have it. Obviously, you should have that way.
Starting point is 00:13:56 Yeah, yeah, that's probably what it was. And your arm probably stronger. No, no, my hand, my hand is stronger. I ain't shaking your hand. You know, yeah, he's almost right, but it's the hand. It's the hand. So off top, do you think my man Jack Thrilliello have been in the gym? No, do you believe?
Starting point is 00:14:13 A lying about the gym. I'm going on Jack that 20 years. He'll get on social media and live weights and have pictures around him and looks like he's really doing it. He do that once every three years and say he's going to lose weight. And my fuck's still insane. That's why I recognized him when I came in.
Starting point is 00:14:32 I said, yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's my man, though. He's been in the gym hard, like three months straight. Oh, in the morning, he's been hitting me. Be 30 in the morning. You know what I mean? Maybe he just can't lose weight. No, he can't see how to do it.

Starting point is 00:14:56 Yeah, as long as you lose weight before you're 50. Okay. You're good. When you say lose weight, what you mean? Like, you really got to lose weight, fam, because weight takes a serious toll on your life as you get older. Okay. You got to read up on this. How about you got to wait right now?

Starting point is 00:19:55 and you're taking over my shit. Because that's a topic that gets a lot of attention. Really? I didn't know about that. Yeah, the marriage is. This is serious. You're not going to be serious. This is very serious. You got to check a media. He was wrong with having problems with this lady. He called me about it. And I just...
Starting point is 00:20:12 You asked the booed raised him? No, no. Okay. You were serious. Yeah, I was very serious. Okay. The thing with him is he's a beautiful person, beautiful soul, and I hate to see that he was going through what he was going through. So my advice to any man and woman when shit ain't right,
Starting point is 00:20:29 get you a new motherfucker, get you a new bitch, get you a new nigga, period. Like, I don't believe in it you're going to try to work things out. You're going to get things together. Even if you got kids, fuck the kids, everybody, start out fresh and new. That's what he did. And he's been happy ever since. And every time I post something on Instagram about relationships, be right there paying attention.
Starting point is 00:20:48 All right. So what did what did the T.K. Get you out to get you right? He just basically told me. Talk to the mic. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:56 He just basically was telling me, man, you know, that I should have I had a lot of like celebrities that she knew before me and it was just really fucking with my head.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Oh, she knew she knew niggas before you. Yes. Like the niggas that was in my phone. Right. And I didn't know that You knew that.
Starting point is 00:21:17 No, I didn't know that. He didn't do his due diligence. See, men, men, here's a problem with most of men. They say beauty, they roll up and not understand, check a person's background. Just like Clay Thompson and Megatistallia. Wait, they didn't check each other's background? Well, here's the thing to me. I know he got to fall.
Starting point is 00:21:35 I was talking about this too long ago. And I feel that when you have a dad and whether a woman is nice now, your past comebacks to bite you on the ass. Okay. We want men on this show. We want men to understand not to get caught up in just beauty because it could come back and bite you on the ass. Understand character. Understand who the woman is before you have a child with them. All things because there's so many guys out here that's in pain because they went with the lust.
Starting point is 00:22:04 They went with the feeling instead of checking the character, the person. And these type of shows, we have to put that up there because they listen to us. And we want them to take their time before they just. nothing in the female and she has this child because the same way you have to ask consent to have sex with a woman in a sense. A woman should be able to ask a man, can I have your child? Oh, not just nothing. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Like if a woman gets pregnant, she should have consent to the man. You're not just going to have your child and you don't have no authority. I just think that's wrong. Wow. Oh, that's real. Does your past matter? Does her past matter? it depends on the guy
Starting point is 00:22:45 if you don't care you know and it depends on who it is like I couldn't come here and know that Norrie and this guy dated my girl it's you know what I'm saying as a man to me a real man want to walk in a spot knowing maybe one
Starting point is 00:23:02 motherfucker touched this girl but when you got a girl that walk on the spot she's hugging everybody hey Nooy hey hey let me just say hi the nigga one more He stopped dating a girl because she went to Uchiwali video. No, man. This is a story he made up.
Starting point is 00:23:20 My ex-d girlfriend was. She was a video victim. But after, she went to that direction and we broke up. She went to big Pippin video and he stopped. I didn't break up a puzzle. Do you hear what he said? He did the right thing. What?
Starting point is 00:23:37 A man has to know what you want to put up with. She went to a dog song video. She was in all those videos. She was on a run. See, but again, that's that's the, that's a character. That's a title. When women say, oh, I'm married to Nouri, right? That's not women.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Okay. I know you married, but I'm using that. Not me. Use a candle. Noree is a good thing. Men get caught up, and women get caught up in titles. Oh, my man's a basketball player. Or he's an attorney.
Starting point is 00:24:07 You're not talking about it. The guy. Right. You're talking about it's title. Yes. You see what I'm saying? So we got to get past title. That's how when things happen, everybody's confused when you hear a pastor that does something wrong.
Starting point is 00:24:20 You upset because you went with his title when a cop kill someone because you feel because he has his badge, he's a different person. We have to stop looking at people's titles and understand their character. I think that changes the whole way of perception on how you see people. Yeah, absolutely. But you did the right thing. I commend you on that. Whether it was that part of it. It was mutually.
Starting point is 00:24:41 but it was easy to let go. I see you marry somebody else. Yeah, yeah. Group of college, bitch is graduating here. Holy thing. Why stretch yourself? You look good and you're happy. That bitch you would have been
Starting point is 00:24:56 fucked up, man. Can you turn a home? She'd have been kissing Torrey Lanes in the concert. Yeah, exactly. What's the nigga? I'll be talking the bitches down and giving them roses.
Starting point is 00:25:05 I'll just. She would have kissed. Yeah. Yeah. You don't want that. I ain't go lie. If you look, if you look, let your girl kiss Usher.
Starting point is 00:25:13 Like, how do you go home? Some men will have, give you a crazy story. Okay, I'm a G. I'm in Arizona. Okay. Phoenix. This is about 10, 15 years ago. Okay. I'm showing you how men are.
Starting point is 00:25:29 I rolled up on this guy, two crazy situations happening to them. Let's give you both of them. I rolled up on this guy and he's with this bad bitch. But, you know, I talk all that game on stage. Yeah. I said, that's your girl? He said, yeah. He said, you won't?
Starting point is 00:25:42 I said, hell, motherfucking year. I snatched up and I took her. Next day, she flew to all these other cities with me. When I got to Alabama, the golf thing with Tiger Woods was going on this, and Tiger Woods was giving me win the Masters. The police shows up. The nigger had called the cop saying that I took his bitch. Like a kidnapter?
Starting point is 00:26:07 No, Spanish. Okay. Took his girl. She had to call him and basically said, yo, you actually said that it was okay, and she rolled with me. I had it for like a week. True story.
Starting point is 00:26:20 Then the next time I was in Arizona, the guy introduced me to his girl, and I was saying that was his girl. So his wife called me because I was calling the number that he gave me. You know, like a gentleman, like, hey, how you doing? Get back with me, blah, blah, blah. And the young lady called.
Starting point is 00:26:37 She said, no, he's with another girl. Because I thought the girl that I was trying to holl at was the girl that was with him. He gave me his real wife's number. When I called her, she said, no, the nigga cheating on me. He were the bitch that looked just like me. This is how fucked up. Niggas off the world, dog. Like the mindset of people is just insane.
Starting point is 00:27:00 So now at my age, I just don't want to be following nobody. People want me to be married so damn bad. But it don't make sense. you're dealing with any groupie shit when you go on the road no I because I'm a senior citizen now bitches smell social security you know they smell social security and benefits you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:27:21 It comes with the territory you're upset with women because they want you for your money I think that when you have money it comes to the territory you know you just got pick and choose how you want to spend it you know because that's the goal to have a little change you know you want the best of everything you know nice place to live
Starting point is 00:27:39 you know, fine car, first class, tickets, you know. If you got a young lady that needs something, and she's rocking with you. Don't know where a girl want to be with no broke name. That's right. And don't know man want to be with an ugly bitch. So money helps. It's a tradeoff. You know, I want to find this bitch in the room.
Starting point is 00:27:55 That's just me. Now, let me ask you, you know, Instagram comedians, right? Yeah. What do they call? Instagram comedians. Right. I enjoy them.
Starting point is 00:28:12 I enjoy the skits. But one person that I feel like has broken the barrier is juice keeping. Okay. He's killing it. Yeah. He's killing as a character. Yeah. That's what that's called. Not a comedian.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Okay, okay. It's two different things. Okay, yeah. Yeah, two different things. But he has a comedic entitled about himself. He's doing well. And, you know, you wish him well.
Starting point is 00:28:35 I wish we had social media. when we was growing up because this truly changed the game of stand-of-comedy. Young comics who's been doing this maybe 12 years is multi-millionaires now where it took us maybe 20, 30 years to get there.
Starting point is 00:28:51 And you can't hate it. It's just that time evolves. I mean, look at Jake Paul. Jake Paul, one of the worst fighters in the world, he's making more money than everybody. That's a real fighter. Got his own promotion company. Yeah, he's killing it. So you've got to find a way to have
Starting point is 00:29:06 a gimmick if you can you say and it is what it is man. What did you feel about Instagram comedians? Because you're a raw comedian. You're a person that sit down you can tear up everybody in this crowd right now if you wanted to but what did you first feel like when you
Starting point is 00:29:22 I thought it was amazing. Right. Yeah because believe it or not it helped me too. Right. You know, the thing about a fisherman, a fisherman always see another fisherman from afar. And what I mean by that is if you see something work you got to jump on the van wagon too.
Starting point is 00:29:38 So I just jumped on the bandwagon. I said, let me catch this motherfucker train. And I've been riding there. So it's been doing well for me. Right. If you could do a movie with any comedian, what would it be? Mm. If I could do it like a co-star way.
Starting point is 00:29:50 Yeah. Cat Williams? Cat Williams. Yeah. Because I have an idea in my head already. I can see that. Yeah. I would love with Cat Williams.
Starting point is 00:29:57 And you all work together more? No, years ago. Yeah. But we see each other. We show a man love respect. Okay. He'd back in fact he called me a couple times. So, you know, the love is.
Starting point is 00:30:06 there. Okay. You say you want to be in the movie with him? I would love to be in a movie with TK. I was a better of a dream. I was trying to get a movie with TK. He just white. He wiped a Duval ass, right? He did what? He wiped Little DeVole ass.
Starting point is 00:30:19 What do you mean? Yeah, what's the truth behind that, man? The truth is. Little of all, that didn't happen. The ball came at you. No, no. You don't remember he had his accident, right? I helped take care of him. And that was just one of the things that, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:30:30 I had to do it. So why was that important to tell the way? He, he told, he told, he, he, he, he, he, I just I don't want to know why that was important to tell the world. Because I want him to know that people to know that it's real people inside his life that care about him and whatnot. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, but could you say you take care of him?
Starting point is 00:30:44 To care of him. Yeah, but you ain't got to say you white his ass. See, that's what I mean by putting that little extra shit on there. That's the shit I'm talking about. When you talk about you about that? Yeah, don't do that, yeah. That's not man shit. That ain't man shit.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Yo. Before you're a comedian, you're a man. I always remember that. That's very important. before you're a comedian, you're a man. And sometimes people get on this mic and just be saying all kinds of crazy shit. And I really want to start holding the motherfuckers
Starting point is 00:31:15 and hold them accountable for the shit that comes out their mouth. It's disrespectful. People listen to you looking for attention and that's not the way to get it. Be funny, be a businessman, get your motherfucker money and go home with your family. But we got stopping. You know, I'm going to say, well, I got,
Starting point is 00:31:30 you already know how old day. God damn. You know, fuck that. So let me ask you. If a comedian doesn't have a stage show, was he considered a comedian? I mean, we got Eddie Murphy who said he won't go back on stage, right? But we got raw.
Starting point is 00:31:50 We got delirious. So we know the effects of him being on stage. But now, like, when we see these other comedians, I don't see everyone on stage. So if a person doesn't have a stage presence, are they still considered a comedian? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's in their head.
Starting point is 00:32:05 and people pay money to come see them and perform. Okay. But success tells you if you're doing well as a comedian. Okay. It's a lot of comedians in the game, but they don't have M's behind their name. A lot of communes in the game been in the business for years. Did it have what behind their name? They're not a millionaire.
Starting point is 00:32:20 You know what I'm saying? So longevity tells you if you're good in that. That's how come out. I'm blessed to be doing this 41 years of stand-in-up comedy. And that's a long time. I see. Forty-one. Is that the criteria?
Starting point is 00:32:37 Because you said Drewski wasn't a comedian. Is it doing stand-up as the criteria to call yourself a comedian? No, you can call yourself a comedian, you know what I'm saying? But he does comedic roles. But I've never seen him on stage as a stand-up comic. Yeah, that's what I'm kind of. You mean like that? You know, does Wilfair do stand-a comedy?
Starting point is 00:32:57 No. I've never seen Wilfair do stand-up comedy. Yeah, that's a good point. I don't think that's a good point. But he says considered a comedian. He still considered a comedian. You know, I don't think you, well, It's not a thing.
Starting point is 00:33:06 You don't have to do stand-up comedy be a comedian. You don't have to. Wait, say that again? You don't have to do stand-up comedy to be a comedian. But you could be a comedian TV. You could be a comedian in commercials. You could be a comedian in movies. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:21 But, but, like, for hip-hop. Yeah. If you're missing, like, certain elements of hip-hop. Absolutely. Then they don't consider you. Yeah, it's a different ball thing. So is that, like, is that like, like, ghost writing your rap? Yeah, in the comedy, we get people a pass.
Starting point is 00:33:37 A pass for not being on stage? Yes, we give them a pass. The rules is not as tight as a rapper. Okay. The rapper game, you know how this shit's supposed to go. And if you come on stage playing, that you're going to, you know, people going to call you out. The rap game is different. That's what you know.
Starting point is 00:33:52 I came up in the rap game. I was in the rap game, be really more before the stand-up comedy. And you can, NWA, all that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A rap game. Yeah, I was in a rap game. Because those was my kind of people, rappers and street niggies. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:04 You know, no disrespect to comedians, but I wanted to hang with the rappers and the street niggas. That was just my thing. You know, we got along, we understood. Most of us had records. Most of us had, and I mean, not the music records, criminal records. You know what I'm saying? So it was amongst us that you felt good being around this type of people, you know? But when you're saying that the rules are different, you meaning writing for the community?
Starting point is 00:34:27 No, I just mean if you're not staying the comedian, but you're a comedian and TV. And nobody's going to trip. But if you're funny, you're funny. Right. you know, that's all. Is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, does the LB. Like, concern you when you write your material? No, because I really give them props.
Starting point is 00:34:45 Like, you know, I talk shit, but I, you know, like, I did something not too long ago on, on, with my boy in, um, Charlemagne. And he made it funny. I was serious. Wait, I saw that when he was on a breakfast club. Yeah. And I said, you know, because I was looking at this gay person one day. And, like, he, he's like, he can pretend. Yeah, he was, like, that's like a phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:35:04 actor. Yeah, he studied the mannerisms of some female and headed down. Who's this? This is a gay guy. Just using an example. I came up with this joke that I said on the story I said on Breakfast Club, but Chaldemain started laughing and made it funny. I was really serious.
Starting point is 00:35:23 And I said, you know, I really respect gay people. He said, why? I said, because what it tells me is that you can put your mind to anything and be anything you want to be. And he just role because it's true. It's true, though. It's true. It's true. It's true. I see them the way they walk and how they act more feminine than women
Starting point is 00:35:46 is amazing to me. Let me ask you, if Hollywood comes from you for a role, and they say, man, you need you play a big mama's house, but you're going to be big, hunky-dory. Well, that's a question that's been asked before. But to answer your question, you already know the answer. Absolutely not. Absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:36:05 Yeah. But you think that is... Three million dollars. Four. Yeah. No, I'm teasing. No, I won't do it. Do you think that is a real thing in Hollywood?
Starting point is 00:36:16 Like the conspiracy. Like, I thought when I first heard that, like, it would go away. And it continues to grow, continues to grow, continues to be a part of, like, Martin Lawrence conversation. Like, all these people, uh, it's always bored up, like, to emancipate the black man to, like, to, like, to, to, like, to, to, like, to, to, to, like, you know. It depends what your mindset is. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:37 Robin Williams did it back in the day. Flip Wilson, back in the day, Geraldine. It was hilarious. Tom Hanks. You know, yeah, Tom Hanks. So this has just started happening in the last 10 years where comics or people really have taken the word to devalue being an actor playing that type of role.
Starting point is 00:37:03 So based on the individual that's saying the message, based on the individual that's taken on the role, it's a personal decision, basically, what I'm trying to say. Me personally is something that I wouldn't do because I'm in the streets. So my niggas ain't having it. Like they're a clown. My motherfucking ass for life, you know. But if you was in Hollywood and you wasn't around people like that, you'll do it. Yeah. You'll do it.
Starting point is 00:37:26 So you don't subscribe to the whole, like it's a whole concerted conspiracy? No, no, no, no. I entertainers getting in his business, they create their own stories, you know, like Luminati and all that kind of shit. And people don't understand that Luminati is a, it was just a group of men that wanted to create a different currency compared to the $9, the dollar. Right. And it didn't go through. So that word led to something else and it's been ran with ever since. Yeah, it took a life of his own.
Starting point is 00:37:53 Yeah, it took a life of his own. Absolutely. Pride is like love. You feel it in your heart. IR Radio.

Starting point is 00:42:46 You need to get them shot. What you drink? Yeah. Let me get some of marijuana. Well, when you finish that one, I'll give you the next one. You can say marijuana. Yeah, this is a regular room right here. This feels so good.
Starting point is 00:42:57 Take a shot of it. And then, you know. Malfonana. Cheers. That shit smelled good. I'm not even playing, man. I think that's that 420 sprays. I know how 420 sprays smell.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Maybe. Did she, you spray something? No. You sprayed something? I know no dude in here. Hey, man, this is letting me a mystery. It's not a good. He's got to tell us something.
Starting point is 00:43:22 He's thinking with that. Ah, ha. Tony Hitchcliff or Shane Gillis? Tony Hitchcliff. Okay. Wow. Eddie Murphy or Richard Pryor? Richard Pryor.
Starting point is 00:43:38 Chris Rock or Martin Lawrence? Chris Robb. NWA or public enemy? And give us any stories with these people. We don't have to just go through them. So it's NWA for sure, but both of them had an impact on the culture. And a phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:44:00 I always say that the same group of opposite sides of the spectrum. That's the way I totally agree. That's a perfect example. I like what Easy did, you know. I'm always on the business side of things. But me, Easy used to talk and how he put up 6,000 to start, to put up the album for Australia Compton. Right. And it made over $22 million. That album only cost $6,000 and it made $22. Yes. We need to say that one more time. Six thousand.
Starting point is 00:44:30 So that one thousand. So, six. and make $22 million. Wow. What makes Easy so phenomenal from a business side they own their own record label for anybody own their own record label. Wow. They were the first? Yeah, they was ruthless. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:44 I mean, maybe with Jay Prince? No, no. No, no, niggas. They came after Easy. Yeah, I believe it. It's really close because even Luke. No, you don't think so? No, sir. This is my bill right here. No, mine too. But I mean, it's close. Maybe age-wise, I'm looking at it differently. Yeah, yeah. It was
Starting point is 00:45:01 Rufus first. And that's what I loved about the business side of them. Just like when Dr. Drake got beats, you know, see, that story was the beats really supposed to be for Kanye West. But Kanye West gave Jimmy Ibean a hard time. Then it was going to go to
Starting point is 00:45:17 Teddy Riley. And Teddy Rowley and Jimmy Avine had a big argument. And then it would have been Shug, but him and Shug had a big fight. And that's how it came beats Dr. Dre. Drey wasn't even the first one to get it. The fourth one you said, Gray was the fourth one.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Wow. Yeah. He was the fourth round pick. He was fourth round pick. Teddy Rowland came before Dr. Yep, sure did. Yeah, sure did. Shout out to Easy, man.
Starting point is 00:45:42 Yeah, shout out to Easy. Yeah. So, and then with Public Enemy, what they did for the culture is they made you just believe in black, and they taught you about blackness and being proud of yourself. And it's very important that we wish we could have that in today's society, because everybody's lost. Everybody's winging it and doing their own thing.
Starting point is 00:46:03 And what I see is what it's really sad, especially when you got the type of government that we have right now, how they're getting rid of the middle class, right? And I read that by 2030, there is no more middle class. You're either rich or poor. Right. So we want African-Americans, Spanish, Dominicans, to know who they are to try to get their money back.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Because last time I was talking about LLC. Yes, yes. Black people is. That's, you know, a lot of people keep always repost that. Yeah, we always repost that. So I said to myself one day, what can I do because I knew only thing that can change people's lives is money. So as I tore, I used my platform to find out information, to find out of opportunities.
Starting point is 00:46:46 So I ran to two gentlemen out of Chicago, you know, and one of my hustling friends who always been supporting me for over 30 years. He came to the show, he was named Bolo. He said, TK, listen, I got this idea. I want you to team up with these gentlemen. They flew down the scene when we got together. We became a partnership. So I created this company called TKG-K-G-G-G-O-C-O-N-W-A-Y.
Starting point is 00:47:09 That's T-K-G-O-V-C-O-N-W-Y. And it's to teach people how to be government contractors. Now, people say government contract, they think they're going to sell their own product. No, you really work for the government. But we teach you for eight weeks how to bid for the products, right? So let's just say an example of the government wants you to get pencils for a particular school.
Starting point is 00:47:32 And you bid, you got the lowest bill, but you want to bid. And let's say you didn't have the money. We give you the money to get what you got to get because the $7,000 is going to bring you back $80,000 because what people don't know about the government, they overpay. Yes. All you got to do is watch on war dogs.
Starting point is 00:47:52 The movie War Dogs. It shows you. About the guns? About the guns. It's almost similar to the same. About the same, almost like the same thing. And Joe Hill. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:01 So I want people on the goal on the website. And what we do is have a webinar to see if this is what you're interested in. Some people are like, oh, I have a felony. I can't work. But there's no face behind the computer. If you're on a computer, you can work and make money. And I put a lot of people on this. This is real.
Starting point is 00:48:19 And your LLC is you. You don't have to be. Yeah. And you know, you have to use your LLC for this. Oh, okay. This right here, you know, this is a strict, strict business. And my team. my partners teaches people
Starting point is 00:48:30 how to win in this game. And it's called TK. God. I want everybody to, if you listen to me, getting an American Express card, that don't get you no money, unless you have money already. This puts money in your pocket while you sitting at home doing nothing on your computer. And these guys
Starting point is 00:48:46 teach you for eight weeks that when you go out there, you're prepared. Wow. That's dope. One of the fucking financial, wonderful. We've got to get into that some more. after this for sure. Yeah. Coming to America? Hold on. I got one.
Starting point is 00:49:03 Corey Hogan or Ari Spitz. Corey Hogan? Hand down. Yeah. Yeah, Corey Hogan is that good. Okay. Don't get me wrong. Eric Spears is good too. I like street shit. Right. Yeah. I like street shit. All right. Come into America or Harlem Knights?
Starting point is 00:49:20 Coming to America. Damn. Okay. Dave Chappelle or Chris Tucker? Dave Chappelle. Any stories? Anything with either of them? The greatest thing I love about Dave Chappelle, I went to go see him a couple months ago. Chris Tucker, T.I., all of us was there. And we all sat in the room like this.
Starting point is 00:49:42 And you never know the effect that you have on people. And Dave Chappelle sat there and explained to me how he thought I was really one of the greatest stand-up comedians that ever touched the mic because of my cadence. He said, I saw you perform years ago, T.K., and the way stuff was coming out your mouth, he said, I've never seen nothing like that before. And he allowed me to go on his show that weekend. And I was only supposed to do a guest spot. The man was so phenomenal, he kept me the whole weekend. What else was phenomenal?
Starting point is 00:50:13 He paid me. Like most comics, when you do a guest spot, you ain't getting paid. Out of respect. When I was going to leave, the owner said, yeah, this is some day. I said, what? I wanted to give it back. But I'm a businessman. Cool, cool.
Starting point is 00:50:30 You know, it's always about the motherfuck of money, you know what I'm saying? But I tip my hat off to him because of that. That was phenomenal. And I think a lot of people don't understand that just like in music and comedy, there's technicalities to the way you do it. Yes, yeah. And this is, you know, OGs and Gs that understand life. Right.
Starting point is 00:50:47 When you respect someone, you make sure you look out for all. But I'm talking about the cadence that he was talking about. That's a technicality that he noticed. Absolutely. That he really admired. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Most convenience is understanding, but to hear him say that because it's Day Chappelle. And you got to remember, I was for everybody.
Starting point is 00:51:03 Right. So I've seen everybody take their leap to fame. But that's fine. Hey, before you want, I'm glad you brought up David Chappelle because, you know, on his last special, he talked about how Puffy has saved his life. Right. When the guy was coming to have new stuff. And he talked about how the hip-hop police was after Puffy and so on and so forth. And then you told this phenomenal story about the same subject.
Starting point is 00:51:30 involved you going to jail and would you share that with a drink champs are? Well, it's my past, but I'll insight a little bit. I had Rob Puffy in 1998. Yeah, Robb. Yeah. I think you've mentioned this. Yeah. I mentioned it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:47 Something like that. I don't know if I was talking about that one. He wasn't in the next chapter. It was like, you had got arrested for something and now they was trying to get you to like say that Puffy had Oh, that's the same case. It's the same case. It's the same case.
Starting point is 00:52:04 It's just that when they arrested me, and when Puppy had the gun charge of Jennifer Lopez, the same detectives came to Rikers Island and tried to get me to testify that I saw Puffy with the gun. So me being smart, I got them to get me out of Rikers Island. Oh, if you was at that club, they took me to the club and everything, they get the fuck out of here.
Starting point is 00:52:23 I swear to God. They took me from Rikers. They took me to, back down to the county. They came and got me three days, but me being smart, every time I went, I was extra thirsty.
Starting point is 00:52:38 I was hungry. So I was just getting the good food. Get McDonald's and shit. No, no, no, no, no. I said good food. Don't get my bad. My bad. You know what in jail?
Starting point is 00:52:47 McDonald's a good food. No, no, no. You know who's sitting next to you? Okay, okay. Okay, thank you. And, um, good. They will point to where I'm supposed to be, and I said,
Starting point is 00:52:58 because they don't want to say it. You got to say it. What was it? Club New York? They said, Puffy was standing here and you were, and I'm like, right there, you know? So a couple days later, they asked me, my attorneys came and spoke to me,
Starting point is 00:53:14 and they said, they want to know if you want to go to the grand jury. And I looked at my attorney. I said, no, I'm good. And that Puffy won't go on by his business. You know, because, again, I'm connected with streets, you know. So everybody know me, Eric Bonsip is tight,
Starting point is 00:53:26 and, you know. Rest of peace. Yeah, rest of peace. So everybody know my. association with the street. So certain things you just can't do, dog. You know? It is what it is.
Starting point is 00:53:36 So that's what happened with that. Man, give it up to T.K. Griffin for one time. Yeah, yeah. But not sniffing. Come up, man. Hey, Eric Von Zip, you put him on the map, bro. Like, to the new school of people.
Starting point is 00:53:48 Yeah. We didn't never even heard about Eric Von Zip. Right. And like now, he's like a cultural icon. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Zip was my guy. You know, out of all the people
Starting point is 00:54:00 ever met in my life. That was the fly's motherfucker. Industry and the industry. Yeah, he was just fly, y'all. Because of what his past was. Because he was street niggins. Right. You know, but his his, the way he moved, the way he carry himself. And to this day,
Starting point is 00:54:16 our whole crew that's still out when we go into certain cities, when they picked me up, it was a rule we have. We have a bottle of crystal, ice cold, and when we get in the car, we pass it to the person in the car. That's from Eric Glaz. Wow.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Yeah. Wow. Space and noise. Yeah. All right. Jay Z or Big Daddy Kaine? Jay Z, hands down. Now, the reason why Jay Z for a lot of things, you know, before Jay Z blew up.
Starting point is 00:54:42 I threw a party zipping all of us up in Harlem on my 35th birthday party. And we hired these guys. I didn't know who they were. They hired these rappers out of Brooklyn. So when it got the, you know, we minked out. You know, we got the grips outside and shit. And my man said, you know, TK, they hear. But I'm serious about being punctual and on time.
Starting point is 00:55:03 I said, now, fuck them niggas. You know, we got money. We're feeling good. And my man said, no, T, let them go on. I said, you know, you know, this nigga went up on my birthday party and turned this bitch to fuck out, dog. After the show, I pulled out a while the money is before we had credit cards. You know, take the brother van off. We'd be peeling off the money and shit.
Starting point is 00:55:25 And I peeled out $15, $100 bills. And I gave it tone. Didn't even look at him in his eye. I just slid it to him like that. This thing was Jay-Z, dog. Wow. And I tell people the story of the time. So that nigga took my money and flipped it, flipped it again.
Starting point is 00:55:41 And that's how he became a billionaire. God damn. And then because of that, that's how I got on the Hard Knock Life Tour. Oh, that's right. You know, I was the host of Hard Knock Life Tour. Yeah. So they came back around and got me. So the Hard Knock Life Tour led me to meeting some other fly niggas out of New Orleans.
Starting point is 00:56:01 a young nigga named Baby from cash money. So I'm down there and baby rolls up on me. And he goes, what up, Walder?

Starting point is 00:58:09 story, but the great thing about Robert Harris is that if you was a young comic, you studied him, and you saw a true talent, you know, so true talent. That's big, big kids, Robert Harris, right? Comedians have been going on certain podcasts. I was like, no nay, I ain't get no niggas, no shine. And I'm trying to say that Robin, people used to steal jokes and Robert Hars just go around smacking people.
Starting point is 00:58:34 And I had to go on a podcast and check the young man, because that shit never happened. You know, and I actually broke it down that. Rob Harris really was an insecure man. He wasn't like, he was funny, but he wasn't confident because he, if you wasn't funny, he loved you. But when you became a threat, he didn't like you anymore. Wow.
Starting point is 00:58:55 And that's the true story about that, you know, because I can out hustle anybody. So when we started out in LA, it was the Comeric Theater. And then I started getting seven, I had seven clubs, but I had the streets behind me. So we pay him up. his money that they never saw back in the Paul Mooney and all these guys, we're giving them some real motherfucker paper.
Starting point is 00:59:15 And, you know, people get jealous of that, you know? So when these stories come out, I saw that really that's one of the reasons why I say when men, comedians, when you get on this mic and you lie, I'm going to hold you accountable because I don't, you know,
Starting point is 00:59:30 I got grandchildren, I'm a man and I take it very serious if you get on here and start that bullshit and lying. I'll call you, I swear to God, I call you out. Anybody ever try to lie on you? I don't know. Well, no, no, one guy tried to say I was gay.

Starting point is 00:59:53 Right. I didn't see that. It's just years ago. The niggum was just talking shit. Okay. I wasn't ready. So what happened was, it was to take your coach study.
Starting point is 01:00:02 So I get his number. Okay. Years later, but I'm calling about something else. But I'm calm as. and cool is the other side of the pillow. Right. I said, yo, what's up, man?

Starting point is 01:00:26 He was the one who reposted it? No, he, somebody he knew, reposed it. Okay. And what I said to him was, then y'all, I just said, yo, please take that down. He said, now the problem, TK.
Starting point is 01:00:36 But that's how you, as a man, you talk to people, whatever you feel on the other end of that phone call, that's on you. Right. You know, but I move a certain way. I understand the energy of this world that we live in. And because of my great choices, I've been truly blessed with success, right?

Starting point is 01:05:01 but only a few people get to the top of where the money is. And some people who are at the top, who you think at the top, don't have no money. Right. And I always, because I'm a hustler, what's real? Audition or that money in your motherfucker. That's why I'm hating that it's becoming a cashless society. Because everyone else has handled money before.
Starting point is 01:05:23 Right. And my friend, Money, Miss Hayst that. He wants this to go back to money. You feel that money in your hand. I don't know about anybody else. That's some motivation. Yeah, it is. Am I wrong?
Starting point is 01:05:33 To smell it. Yeah. It is. It is. You feel well. You can't see well That don't seem like nothing Like a plastic more black card
Starting point is 01:05:41 Doesn't give you that feeling You don't give you that feeling But when you actually touch money It's a powerful fucking thing And I hate that they are doing that To the world And making it illegal to even carry it to next time But certain spots that
Starting point is 01:05:57 Like you know Certain PCB is in certain places That only take gas It makes those places special though You know what I mean It makes those little restaurants with You know Uncle Mario back there Like, you know, and he doesn't know how to, you know, he doesn't know how to do the cash app, you know, and he takes the cash.
Starting point is 01:06:13 It makes those, you know, mom and pop boutique spot special. I totally agree. It's a pizza shop that I go to. I go there to be disturbed all the time. It's a cross street from Twin Peaks because they only take cash. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:27 And like, I saw that piece of spot. Yeah, yeah. So I go there all the time. And I'm in your restaurant. Yeah, yeah. Okay, you know, the juicy, juicy juice is more. Yeah. But, um, so I go there and I go, I go look for an eight.
Starting point is 01:06:37 ATM just to support that shit because it makes it a little bit, you know what I mean? It makes it feel like back in the days. And by the way, they sell a New York style pizza. Yep, they do. So it's, it's, it's, it's, it's not. That's exactly what I look for when I try. But yeah, it does make it. I agree with you in totality.
Starting point is 01:06:51 But when you get these little spots that it does, it does make it. It makes a good. I'm bad as you put it way because it does, it's a good feeling to have that money in your hand. It energizes me. It's motivation. Yep. It motivates you. And that's what we want young men to, um, understand about.
Starting point is 01:07:07 being motivated. Like I just talked about wearing pajamas. And niggas is upset about wearing pajamas. In public or just in general? In general. See what he just said? No, because you know why? I've been seeing niggas outside in pajamas lately.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Because no one is giving them the game on how to move. See, they're thinking wearing pajamas is some Bill Kahn's type of thing. But wearing pajamas is like having money in your hand. Okay. When you are wearing pajamas in your home, you feel a certain way. serve elegance about yourself. And you have to feel success to go out into the world to get success.
Starting point is 01:07:44 Now, I'm not saying you go to sleep in pajamas, because I'll wear pajamas, I'll go sleep naked. You know? So, but men should wear pajamas. Like, if you wear socks and slides and a big t-shirt around your home, now, don't get me wrong, if you're in an apartment, you're in a fucked-up neighborhood.
Starting point is 01:08:00 The way the world is today, people are going to look at you crazy. So your motivation should be homes and condos. Right. You know? So when, homes and condos so when you open your door or you got run to your car or something
Starting point is 01:08:13 you got a nice pair you look good and that's the way you should dress around your children because I think mentally it gives them a sense of self-respect and class
Starting point is 01:08:26 that's just me if I'm wrong I'm wrong a pajama game all right in living color or Matt TV in living color of course Kooji rapper I see
Starting point is 01:08:36 Ice tea Remy Ma or Rod Digger Pass So we drink And for the record The Googlers over there They sent the years of the labels They said
Starting point is 01:08:54 Luke Records 1985 Rapalot 1986 Ruthless 1987 Wow, is that right Okay, I was wrong I was scared to tell you was wrong Okay
Starting point is 01:09:04 I'm gonna laugh You're going to be I'm going to be I'm saying that I'm saying You're watching when you're wrong That's right. But you know, why don't you back in?
Starting point is 01:09:14 I was scared. You think he's thinking like here. I'm not saying this thing. But you know, in those years, it was all, that's all very right now. It all seems like it's the same. It is. It's all right there. But the great thing about it was, even though all them did well, nobody had the
Starting point is 01:09:47 the success of Rufless Records. I agree. Am I right around? I agree. With no radio play. But they both had the same fucking power. Luke had to say, bro, and Jay Press too.
Starting point is 01:09:59 Luke paid the way for NWA to do what they did. Right. Okay, okay. Because he made the Privacy sticker. That's right. The affirmative advisory sticker is actually. Yeah, all that helps.
Starting point is 01:10:11 Yeah, all those things help. I totally agree. Yeah. The last one. Okay. Loyity or respect? Respect. Mm-hmm. I take respect all motherfucking day. I got to be respected.
Starting point is 01:10:29 Mm-hmm. No way around it, not even playing with it. That's why I think sometimes I couldn't do a roast. I'm about to ask you that. You couldn't do it or couldn't be the... I couldn't be in it. I've been unshot at everybody. Wait, wait, yes.
Starting point is 01:10:45 You can't be one of them dudes that can't take a joke about you. No, no, it's not that. It's about respect. Okay. You know what I'm saying? Like, we can do it. But Nick, no not to cross the line. Right.
Starting point is 01:10:53 Nick, what the fuck you say? Right. But I'm going to the trunk. But even you admit... Even you admit... Listen, I'm going. to the motherfucker truck. So hold on, hold on.
Starting point is 01:11:03 I'm coming back. But hold on. Even you admitted that that's a part of it. So Netflix come to you right now. He's that part of the fuck bad. 23 million. No, no, no. Here's the thing about it.
Starting point is 01:11:12 Respect. That's how I feel about respect. To do a roast and they were talking about me, I can have this not a problem. You know, I just, you know, when you start having grandchildren and you live
Starting point is 01:11:24 a certain way, and you better take pride in that shit, I know I do. Right. I do. I do, for real. Now, I can see, I could, you know why, I can see you doing the roast. Now, it's because of how Kevin Hart twisted it.
Starting point is 01:11:40 Like, let him go at the end. Oh, yeah. Like, you, you, I can see you building the jokes. I can see you having jokes already, but then, like, all for the, like, you know, impulse of the free stuff. People get offended, too, because the way I say, I'm going to go in your gut. Right. You know, like, I'm, I'm.
Starting point is 01:11:59 A sound personal. A lot of people don't know that's really my best part of my show. I just haven't did it in years. Wait, what part of it? Like talking about people? Okay, okay. Oh, I'm getting your hands bad. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:09 Okay. Ooh. Oh, I get you for real. You saw how Sherr Underwood. She was actually writing notes while they were talking shit about it. Yeah, she sure was. She was like, all right, good. She was writing notes on the spot.
Starting point is 01:12:21 Yeah, I'm doing a show with Matt back with Michelle Underwood, um, earthquake. Okay. Jack, you said he was on that one. Man, I need to be on that one. Man, no, it's not going to happen. That's not, that's not. That's not. Yeah, that's that start this shit.
Starting point is 01:12:39 You know, and what's my man's name from the, work with Dave Chabelle? Donno Roller. Donald. Donald. So all of us doing, show, Underwood. We're doing it to New Jersey Department in June 20. And Earthquick.
Starting point is 01:12:52 Yeah, Earthquick is hilarious. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I've seen him on your show. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Hell yeah. So let's talk about this special with Mike Epps.
Starting point is 01:12:59 You got, Mike Epps producing it. Yeah, he's going to produce, and I think I'm going to get him to direct it as well. Oh, really? Yeah. Okay. Because a lot of people don't know I started Mike Epps, you know, took him from Atlanta, took him to New York City.
Starting point is 01:13:13 True story. If you watch Delusion, he talks about it towards the end of his show, you know, a T to the motherfucking king. And what was great, it was impressive to me. I'm a young kid, you know, I'm in my 30s, And I'm convincing him, Gaffrey, Dio Hugley, all these guys. So I had a vision as a youngster to put these young men up on game to change their lives. And I take pride today sitting here knowing what's great about what's going on in my life is I understand energy, understand quantum physics, which is important to me.
Starting point is 01:13:48 And I've seen the energy loop back around to make sure I got taken care of. because I would love to go on social media and flex house, cars, you know, but because I'm way I'm built. I can't move that way. And we live in the world today that demonstration is better than conversation. So it's good that
Starting point is 01:14:09 since social media you're seeing Gaffrey going to shows and say everything T.K. Kirkland is talking about is the truth. Sound like he's lying because it sounds like he's the far as Gump. But he's telling the true. D.L. say the same thing. Mike G. Up say the same thing. So I'm glad I had the receipts to
Starting point is 01:14:24 have these people while I'm still alive. I mentioned what I've accomplished. So to do this special is going to be really phenomenal when it happens. I'm really going to take pride in it and I'm going to deliver a show so that the Dave Chappelle's, the
Starting point is 01:14:40 Tony Rocks, the Chris Rocks, all who knew how good I've been years ago. They'll see, like, yo, I see why this guy is to be. It confirms it. It confirms it. Yeah, that's the first of my month. That's the the work I'm going to put into it
Starting point is 01:14:57 to make sure it's that good. Let's make sure. Yeah. What city? What city are you aiming to film at? Greenville, South Carolina. Greenville, South Carolina. Why? Because I did a show down there before and they really appreciate comedy. And I want to go somewhere because so many damn comedians today. When I started it was like three comics, you know what I'm saying? So now
Starting point is 01:15:17 there's so many that comedians go to all the major Atlanta, Miami. I want to go somewhere we're really different that people, they don't get a chance to see this type of stuff. And I know they really enjoy it. And it'd be something that people who will see it around the world will say, yo, that's a funny dude.
Starting point is 01:15:35 Yeah, so Greenville South Carolina. In fact, what's crazy, we talked about last night at the show. Because, you know, we did the show here last night. The hard ride. We know, so we sold out. So me, Mike Gaps and the producer, we all was back there and we was talking, putting it together.
Starting point is 01:15:48 And it's a row. We're about to make this shit happen. Who else was on that show last night? Was it 85 South? Yeah, was it. 85 Southville? And great thing about being on We the One's Tour. Who's on We The On On On Ones Tour?
Starting point is 01:15:57 Those are the name of? Mojo Brooks, D.C. Youngfly, Carlos Miller. Okay. Chico Bean. That's 85 South. Yeah. Tony Roberts is the host of it. And Mike Gap's closed and I'm in the middle of it.
Starting point is 01:16:12 I was offended a little bit at first on the tour because they put me up so early in the tour. Like six o'clock? Yeah, like that's six, but you can say like six. Yeah. with me people still sweeping? Yeah, a lot of people come, a lot of people came to the shows to see me. But I understood this game.
Starting point is 01:16:29 And what people don't understand in the game is fans and then there's followers. You might have people who have followers, yes, but I got fans. I mean, I could do a show on Monday and tell the people I'm doing a nutshell on Thursday. They're coming. Right. My fans is coming. Right. But again, you learn to adjust.
Starting point is 01:16:46 You check your ego at the door. You respect the producers, the promoters. the promoters, and they do what they do. And they pay you a lot to shut the fuck up. And I was like, you know what? Right, right. Yeah, you know, I'll go up and do what I need to do, stay out the way. I'm still going to give a good show.
Starting point is 01:17:03 And we see what happens. And, you know, we loop back around. I come back and do the clubs and all that. And that's good because anything being a senior citizen is phenomenal because I'm not in a sister living. You feel what I'm saying? So that's good. So let me ask you, right?
Starting point is 01:17:18 I say this story all the time Well, I was at the highlight of my career, right? Yes. I'm in Las Vegas. Scarface is me and Scarface on the show. Yes. The promoter says to me, I think you should close the show.
Starting point is 01:17:35 I know I shouldn't have closed the show, right? This is Scarface at the time. Like, I'm new. It's my very first. But let me tell you what you just did. Okay. You show respect. No, hold on.
Starting point is 01:17:44 Let me just finish. Let me finish. So I was like, I know, no, Scarface should close the show. show but they were like no man like you're you're hotter you're harder man when i tell you scarface came out before me and destroyed this motherfucker i was so mad because i like i didn't deserve that as a child like like like like as a child i didn't deserve like i should have knew better i should have been like i should have demanded that i go first and those faces a legend right no one wants
Starting point is 01:18:09 to come after marry marry man right and he gives a great show yeah incredible and he started And this is fast scarf face too This is not even like It's not even You know after he did Scarface But has there ever been a time where like You know Promoter and you got gas
Starting point is 01:18:28 And he was like you know what I'm uh Closing it out? Yeah Oh no good Yeah I'm gonna close it out I have the opposite Okay yeah the opposite
Starting point is 01:18:35 People get mad at me That they had to go on after me Okay yeah So I had to deal with that So one crazy story And cat knows the story too Please We're in St. Louis
Starting point is 01:18:44 And we're doing a show but Kat doesn't know I'm on the show So I get there and the promoter says Cat finds out I'm on a show But Kat knows what I'm capable of doing And he tells the promoter I got to go on for TK The promoter comes on and says TK
Starting point is 01:18:59 Kat wants to go on for you Me knowing what I'm capable doing I said hey no he's a headliner Because I know I'm about to bring this motherfucker Eat like Scarface right And I went on and turk that motherfucker out That when Kat came on
Starting point is 01:19:12 He threw the mint code in the audience And it gave like 10 people, $100 bills, and he walked off the stage. True story. He didn't perform that? He didn't perform. He just walked off. Damn.
Starting point is 01:19:23 Because he didn't smoke the stage like that? But as a businessman, it was the worst mistake of my motherfucker life. Why? You should have let him go first? No. What I teach comics when they ask me about certain things, I say never burn the headliner. Right.
Starting point is 01:19:38 Is that like burning a bridge or you felt like you burned that? It could burn the bridge. If they're weak. but since then I never were and this before Cat really really blew up but we're so respect for each other I know that he would have but I'd never did that
Starting point is 01:19:51 I'd have been on a couple of his tours but me being a hustler you wanted to burn it down I worked hard to get my own name and I don't have to ask somebody for shit and that's the thing about what I do you know so all that motivated me to
Starting point is 01:20:05 not just that just who I am as a man to go get my own shit they don't have to ask nobody to be on their show etc etc but you're going to say family. Would you say that you really pride for when it comes to that? Because TK, a lot of the opportunities
Starting point is 01:20:19 you're getting right now from outside looking in, you could have had them a long time ago. No, no, no. That's what you y'all thought. I was always independent. See, I've always independent. This was intentional. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I never wanted to go the route of everybody else. Because one,
Starting point is 01:20:34 I made all my money with the rappers. I became successful with the rappers. Right. That's real. Everybody, because if you check all that stuff. I wrote all the interludes on so many people's albums. Like all the rap albums, I'm on all the major tours. Give some of the albums that you wrote. Lloyd, Lloyd Players Diary. AMG, bitch for to have my money.
Starting point is 01:20:57 That was you? Yeah, that's T.K. Kirkland. Luke's album. I did his album second and none. Oh, man. The list is long, yo. Yeah, this is long. So, this is a great journey. Like, I'm happy. Like, that's the key, if anything.
Starting point is 01:21:15 Are you happy? I'm happy to the motherfucker. You got one of the greatest stories ever told because you did do it your way. Absolutely. On that same special that you referenced with Mike Epps, he talks about it in that same one that I'm tired of being a real nigga.
Starting point is 01:21:30 I'm ready to get the real money. I'm ready to blow all the way to fuck up. Now, when he said that after he told the same story about you helping him get on, what did that mean to you? and where he was coming. I take pride in knowing that changed people's lives. You know, like, to see what I've done is just,
Starting point is 01:21:52 it's phenomenal to know that I actually saw people and saw something that they didn't see and explain to them what was going to happen and it happened. I can't explain the beauty of that feeling. But he wants more, not to the average person, he already had on. He already invented to the mountain top. Yeah, I think
Starting point is 01:22:11 What is he talking about? I think it mentally you think you have enough, but it's never really enough. And a good businessman, a good owner of anything, if you get complacent, you're dead,
Starting point is 01:22:22 you know? One of the greatest stories is McDonald's. McDonald's been promoting the same motherfucking Big Mac for 30 motherfuckie. They ain't changed a seed. They ain't changed a cheese. It ain't an extra hamburger
Starting point is 01:22:35 on the motherfucker. It's the same goddamn burger. And they've been promoting it for a little bit. 50 got their year every day. You know, you say over a billion burgers, sir, they still promote to this day. Like it's brand new.
Starting point is 01:22:54 Like it's brand new. Isn't that something? If that ain't a great example, I don't know what to tell you. Yeah, you got to keep promoting no matter what until your heart gives out. Yeah. Tyler the creator gave a similar example for music, like musicians that stopped promoting their records. Is it like you got to keep you.
Starting point is 01:23:13 He said after a week of like you drop it up. I saw that with Tyler. Yeah, that's real, man. You got to promote yourself because nobody's going to promote you the way you you'll promote yourself. I don't promote myself to the end. Let me ask you, being independent, and like you manage yourself, you know, all that. Do you think that that was an advantage or you think that if you had a chance to do it all over?
Starting point is 01:23:34 Would you trust? Okay. Because if you had an agent, you could have went to Dubai. when everybody went to the buy and got that real money. Oh, Dubai, you said. Dubai, okay, okay. Yeah, because that was an agent thing. If I had an agent.
Starting point is 01:23:47 Oh, you're talking about when Dave and them went to Dubai? No, they got paid. Everybody was mad at them, and Dave was like, they fucked that. They got paid. You feel the way? Now, if I had an agent, I know for a fact, I'd have been there. You talked about not having an agent
Starting point is 01:23:59 and keeping that money in your pocket. Yeah, that's what we're getting to. We're there. We're here. We're here. You're right. You're talking. I think before you speak.
Starting point is 01:24:12 So, but it worked that well for me. By not having an agent. Nothing against people, because some people need someone to make phone calls. Some comedians need to have somebody do things for them. I can't sit around and wait or see if somebody's going to book me for an event. Right. I know when I'm worked.
Starting point is 01:24:38 So some comments, when they still reach out to me, they still, I don't know why. think I'm a thousand, two thousand comedian. Like, TK, we got this budget. And I don't know. You got me fucked up. You know, you think I'm making that kind of money. So that's also a motivation because, like, for you to still think that, that's what happens sometimes being comfortable with people.
Starting point is 01:24:59 They think you're on the same level as them. And it's far big difference. Now, like, we just spoke about Dubai. Now, if the opportunity to business itself, we know the Dubai, like Abu Dhabi, and, you know, Borough, Bore, it's... And it wasn't, it wasn't Dubai? It was Saudi Arabia that they went to, wasn't it?
Starting point is 01:25:17 Yeah, I'm trying to, like, build that a status man. If you was to be presented with that opportunity, does your comedy change because this is a Sharia law? Like, this is a Muslim... Oh, yeah, well, they arrest you. Yeah, so... Ain't no game. Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Starting point is 01:25:33 Yeah, you better know what you're doing. Yeah, that's what I'm asking. Because some people can go in there and think it's all about them and get your ass locked better. And I learned that here in the States. Right. I was on tour with Bobby Brown. Okay, damn.
Starting point is 01:25:42 And we get to Georgia. Not a cocaine? Oh, the Bible and stuff. Yeah, we get to the Bible. But this one's the brother was alive. All of us is tight. I don't do drugs. For the record, make sure everyone understand that.
Starting point is 01:25:53 I sell it. I sold it. Yeah, yeah. Passed. Yeah, back then. Yeah. Like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:00 He looked like he was telling it right now. He looked like he was making a promotion. I sell it. So, um, we're in Georgia. And before the show, they come out the police. They say, hey, you can't say certain. words. Yeah, they have the, yep. And I didn't make it out to bring on anybody else. I went on. They arrested me. So as I got, I don't know what the fuck I said. Before Bobby Brown? Before
Starting point is 01:26:22 Bobby Brown is going on. And what's crazy? Bobby them left me in jail. They ain't give me, they didn't come bail me out or nothing. I had to call my homie, giving my credit card, get my, my, my, uh, ATM car, get money out to ATM to pay to get me to fuck out of jail. God damn. It makes a little bit of Bobby Brown. Did you get invested on that same? Who did? He got arrested on that same show? I'm not sure.
Starting point is 01:26:45 He probably did. Because he pulled his pants down or some shit like that. He probably did. I'm not sure. Yeah, blue. Like on that same one. Like how Elvis got it back in the days. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:54 That's crazy, yo. Got rest for that shit. Oh, God. Hey, so you got this special coming up. Now, everybody talks about how specials are just not special anymore. What are you doing to prepare
Starting point is 01:27:08 to make this special special? Because, hey, we've been talking about this for a minute. now, TK. being on Netflix. And they're saying it's the King of Ground Comedy. What are you going to do to make this special, special? And what does
Starting point is 01:27:26 make this special special? It's not the King of Underground Comedy. The original king of hip-hop comedy. Yeah, there's a hip-hop comedy. That's right. Because I come from the hip-hop world. You know, and I take pride and easy and working with all of y'all. So nobody got that on lock but me. In the comedy world,
Starting point is 01:27:42 many other comedians, but in the hip-hop world, I got that lane on lot. And what's going to make it special? What makes it special is not telling what special is. You show what special is. So, you know, if I said it now and you saw it, you already know what's going to happen. But guarantee you from a creative side, from a business manager for all these years, what I got plan will show why I am who I am. you ever met Patrice O'Neill?
Starting point is 01:28:13 No, never met him I seem like y'all would be friends I could see that Yeah, never met him But it was a cool dude From the interviews I saw Yeah, God bless him I knew him
Starting point is 01:28:24 I just took that out there Okay Okay, okay Okay, okay Stay quiet Stay quiet Stay quiet black TV shows.
Starting point is 01:28:43 Like how I was in the 90s. We get used so much. When we say TV shows, because, you know, I want to, like, you know, be particular because some people think of television, but you mean on apps, on 2B as well.
Starting point is 01:28:57 I mean, that's TV now. Yeah, that's TV now. I think we need more. I think we need more there. But when you said it, my mind went to CBS, ABC, but we do have... I'm still the only motherfuckettker still paying for cable. You know what I'm saying? I can't play the game.
Starting point is 01:29:13 I can't let it go. I can't let it go, dog. I'm watching the game, and I got to go out of my TV to go to prime. Yes, yes, yes. What the fuck? I'm paying for a sports package. That's good.
Starting point is 01:29:26 I'm paying for a sports package, and this is on my prime app, bro. I'm sorry. I feel like you got to, it's like, if you disconnect from that, it's like you're leaving it all. Yeah, I can't go to that. Yeah, that's like so weird to me.
Starting point is 01:29:41 I do it. I do the app thing, but I have to have a cable. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I do it, but it's still weird to me. You know, my daughter does it. But I got to have that month. I like that. Because, you know, we grew up with five channels.
Starting point is 01:29:53 Now it's like, what, 1,100 and 93 channels? If I meet a woman, if I ever go to her house, which I ain't been a woman other than years. But if she didn't have all the channels, I'm never coming back over there. I want to sit there to go through 1,193 channels, just to say, Ain't shit on TV.
Starting point is 01:30:14 We could probably say that we was on, we was one of the first podcasts on actual cable TV. Yeah, yeah, you guys, you were. And we still are remote TV. Yeah, just because of all right. Pride Month Toronto. Pride is an opportunity for you to create your own space, to celebrate your existence.

Starting point is 01:34:02 I know you've got to join a BET, but that's with other people. And they said, you're going to make it, we're going to base it based on what you wanted to do. like basically how Seinfeld is. Seinfeld is a show about his shit. Right. What would your show look like? I already know the idea. It would be H-O-A, Homeones Association.
Starting point is 01:34:24 Go explain that one. But yeah, when you fucking be on a home? Yeah. H-W-A-W-H-A-H. I'm the president of a homeowners association in my community. They're the most hated people, though. Yeah. I'm the most hated people.
Starting point is 01:34:37 I was the president of the H-O-H-A. Right now? Yeah, right now. They're not like you in your neighbor. No, they're like me. They're like me. I'm on everything. I'm on the type.
Starting point is 01:34:48 The way I talk to you. I talk to everybody in the community like that. Okay. So what is this job? This is this. Your grass got to be in by certain time. Oh, you do that. If my grass ain't cut, you get cars to go around.
Starting point is 01:35:03 They got to deal with the contract. Yeah, I get pictures. And if that, you get a warning in an email. No one has given out more emails. No one has given out more emails than me. You're talking cars in your neighborhood? Yeah, we do it all. Listen, I take it very sick.
Starting point is 01:35:23 Do you understand? I'm a street nigga. It's the presence of HOA? Yeah, that's wild. That's some phenomenal shit. You don't came up. I came up. That's all the big thing.
Starting point is 01:35:34 Yeah. When I walked in the neighborhood, the crossing guys, even ain't no cars. They walk out there just to make sure a car don't hit me by accident. He damned me the president of his neighborhood. Yeah, absolutely. I woke around. I come outside with my robe on, you know, with my leaf blower.
Starting point is 01:35:50 Right. Listen to me. If you understand what I just said, you understand success. Come out with your robe on with a cup of coffee and your leaf blower. Just to hear the motor, just to wake your neighbors up at 705. And they're going to see as you're not. Yeah, they know, they know, they know, they know. Mr. Kirkland's here.
Starting point is 01:36:13 Mr. Kirkland's back, because I'm always gone, but they know when I'm back. Yeah, that's cool. And you making sure the morpulogamous grass is cut. Everything got to be on point, you know? Just like even my dressing room, I had some guys in my dress room yesterday, and I explained to him when you eat,
Starting point is 01:36:27 you put your shit in the trash. And if I, if I, if I'm not there, you can't go on my dressing room. You better not, you better not be in my mother's dressing room. Talk about that dressing room. Yeah, I take the dressing room very seriously. You don't play about it. Because comedians think, see, when I was coming on, you can walk into Eddie Murphy's or Paul Mooney's, people who are stars.
Starting point is 01:36:45 Just so on just be comfortable. You sat outside, and if you was invited in, you came in. That's real. Yeah, that's the way it should be. Yeah, that's the way it should be. But the respecting how kids have been raised or the last 20, 30 years, they don't understand boundaries. They don't understand respect. And I'm not here to say the world.
Starting point is 01:37:05 I thought about it already to teach you things that your parents. parents should have taught you. So I do the best I can with my interviews and the stuff that I put out and I chop it up. And if I could impact the world, if I get two or three people, I did my job. Because even I have men and some women who always want to deflect, always want to go back and forward. When we was coming up, we would never talk back to our elders, right? Even if they was wrong. Right.
Starting point is 01:37:37 You took it. You know, you took it. Just like even when the Michael Jackson movie, come on. You're talking about respect. People didn't like Joe Jackson, you know? And I tell the world without Joe Jackson, there's no Jackson fire.
Starting point is 01:37:53 There's no Michael Jackson. Definitely no, yeah, if there's no Jackson, because they see the asshole for him being mean. Because the young kids today, you know, they wear panties, they wear thongs. You know, the guys, these dicks wear thong. They're emotional. In today's world, you couldn't,
Starting point is 01:38:09 do what our parents did. In today's world. The world is... Like, we had corporate punishment growing up in school. We don't have that. Yeah, you... Your counsel will punch you in the back. Counselor will have a paddle
Starting point is 01:38:21 and have your ass in the hallway. Today you get shot to go to jail. Right, right. Bottom line. And so, a lot of young men and women don't understand life because they're young. And I tell people, say, I've been 25. I've been 35 and 45.
Starting point is 01:38:36 You ain't never been 66 years old. so I could share things with you that I've seen the world change. And even though today that's wrong, what Joe Jackson did, it was a little aggressive, but what people don't see, you saw the work ethic Michael Jackson had? If it wasn't for his dad, he would have never got that work ethic. Because his dad kept saying, no, no, no, no. He'd come home and the wife would say, oh, they got school tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:39:00 He'd tell her to be quiet. And Mike took that with him for the rest of his life. And that prevails him to be one of the great. greatest entertainers the world. And he's so great that the man is dead. Still, and put out a movie. And the music is making more than ever.
Starting point is 01:39:16 So people don't understand that he's old. We have to teach him because they so fucking laws. I call him low IQ motherfucker. That's what I call him. Low IQ. You can't tell an elder sit that we mother. Because they come back and say, oh, just because you old don't mean you're smart. And that's probably true in some situation.
Starting point is 01:39:34 But I know how it's supposed to be. But experiences. Absolutely. I know how I'm supposed to. Does Joe Jackson deserve his own movie? To see the process of making... That would be crazy of a Joe Jackson movie. Come on.
Starting point is 01:39:45 Yeah. If done right. If done right. But I don't like to talk about dumb shit. I love that. I don't even know in the context that you were saying that, but it's not a thing. I love that. I'll take it.
Starting point is 01:40:08 Why are y'all crying? No, no, no. I was going back to your show because I'm watching. Are you a fan of Larry David Kirby, enthusiasm? Hell yeah. Okay. Yeah, I like intelligent comedy. Okay, yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:35 We need a black version of that. I totally agree with you. thousand percent. Like, like, I'm being honest. Like, you ever watch Seinfeld? Like, that shit is hilarious, Joe. Like, like, you saw the Obama shit with him? I was getting to that. I was getting
Starting point is 01:40:48 to that. Oh, that shit was kind of funny, yeah. If you see him coming with something, don't fuck it. You know. You're so, yeah, yeah. Never have it to be. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, because I've seen and that let me know
Starting point is 01:41:03 that Larry David hooked up with Obama. That let me know Obama has to be a funny dude. Have you ever met Obama? You think Obama's funny? No, I've met Obama, but Okay. Obama's really one of the most eloquent speakers
Starting point is 01:41:16 we have ever seen touch that mic, yo. Like he, his aura, his stage presence, the way he looks, everything about him is just on point. But you don't remember when he had the, I forget, I don't know if it was the inauguration, but it was one point where Trump had first announced
Starting point is 01:41:32 he was running and Obama was funny as hell. I'm sure somebody broke this. I think Keene Pell, one of those That was the correspondence dinner. The worst dinner in history. Wait, word? I thought Obama killed.
Starting point is 01:41:48 Let me tell you why. There's another side to that story. Okay, I bet. Because he just... Are you what? I was giving me a six time. He's fucking up my cuck's line and shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:41:59 Okay. So he... That's what inspired Trump to run for presidency. Yeah. Okay, I did it break that down. He talked about Donald Trump so bad that Trump wanted to battle rap, him back.
Starting point is 01:42:10 Yeah, motherfucker was starting to run. That's the shit that got that motherfucking motivated to run for president, yo. And that voice Obama had was hoarse a day or something, but he was funny, he was everything, and we were punished. We were being punished for that fucking dinner. Damn, I didn't even look at it like that.
Starting point is 01:42:29 No, that's fact. Yeah, it's fact. It's not even a person. It's like, that's fact. Because Trump was embarrassed. Yes. Wow. I can see that. Like, I looked at it. When I broke it up just now, I looked at it because I felt like Obama had to have, like, he had to have ghost writers.
Starting point is 01:42:45 He did. I think those days. You said Pee and Peele. That's right. Key and Peele was there. But that's what insiders come. Insiders, they said that's what the flame behind them to run. Right. Again. Yeah, that's what happened. Wow. Worst dinner ever. And I thought Obama flamed him. And see, and what Donald Trump did what people don't know, he, I said it's not too long ago. Donald Trump is the man that lied to the woman, which is America. Thank you. So let me use this metaphor. See, Donald Trump is the guy who wants the girl.
Starting point is 01:43:21 So he rolls up on a, hey, sister, how you doing? She falls for the bullshit. He's president of the United States of America. He gets in there. He's beating her. He's stealing out of the, stealing the money. And she divorced him, which the impeachment's come. And then they just separate that divorce.
Starting point is 01:43:37 they separate. So he goes to these schools to bed himself, baby, I'm better. Take me back. So he runs for re-election again. America, which is the female, listens to him and believes in him again
Starting point is 01:43:53 because he's so elegant in the way he speaks and he's so good at lying. He lies to her, America. Again, she lets him in for the second time. And this time, he fucked her all the way to the no end. And that's what Donald Trump did to America.
Starting point is 01:44:10 And he has milked this country so bad. And people don't understand, you know, how even just on the TikTok deal, you know, he brokered that deal. Oh, to get it out of Japan or something? Yeah, you know, they're going to cut it out. Okay. You know, he's going to cut it off. Okay. You know, he's got $10 billion.
Starting point is 01:44:34 Donald Trump got $10 billion to broker the deal for TikTok. Wow. you go down a laundry list like the Trump phones the phones they're killing it yo he's killing it so that's why at the same time they're nervous the republicans that if they lose the house they're going to try to impeach trump but he has so many people in this corner that is i've never seen nothing like they even mofster he's more powerful than mofster oh yeah yeah because that's what he models himself by too yes he came up onto those guys yeah it's crazy and the democrats suck period too they're terrible yeah they are terrible man i really think personally
Starting point is 01:45:07 we get rid of the Republicans and the Democrats. Yeah. Because them competing against each other hurts people like us. Keeps the independent. Am I right? It hurts people like us. And that's just the honest truth. Because everything is the hustle and people got to understand it. See? One of the coldest hustles ever was the feds.
Starting point is 01:45:25 How they created this shit and they tax you on everything. And the feds is different from the government. The government borrows money from the fed. So the feds don't care about interest rates. When you see the, um, the deficit, how high it's going, what people don't know is that the feds make
Starting point is 01:45:41 the end of the $120 something billion a day in interest. The other co-hustles, how they created the FICO school in 1989. Before in 1989, you can buy a house or car without a credit score. But these companies make billions of dollars every year
Starting point is 01:45:57 to sell out information. Oh, it's coal hustle. That's crazy. It's co-hustle. Even when you buy your house here in the country, it ain't your house. you really paying rent because you die leave it to somebody they don't pay the taxes on it they come take your house that ain't your house
Starting point is 01:46:14 your house is your shit whether you pay taxer it should be you should own your home own the property once it's done pay for it's yours forever and even if you pay for there's taxes that's my point they're trying to change that in Florida yeah they passed it they passed it right
Starting point is 01:46:30 they got to go through things on another process to take away homestead tax that's why you're moving Florida Oh, that's true, I will move here. Yeah, yeah, I don't think they can take your house in Florida. But then you got to start asking you, what's the tax is going to pay for the other things that we need? Well, look, I mean, I live in Paris.
Starting point is 01:46:45 You know, so I'm leaving Tuesday, I go back because I'm only here because of the tour. We got to give it up for Paris, man. Living in Paris. Niggins in the Paris. Yeah, man. Nigs of Paris. I'll be there.
Starting point is 01:46:57 June 15. I'll let you know. Okay, okay. Yeah, I live in Paris. You keep telling me that I keep forgetting that. I keep forgetting that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. How is that living in Europe like that?
Starting point is 01:47:06 It's good because I don't know the language. Wait, what? I don't know the language. I always ask people, do you speak English? So one of the worst experiences I go to dry cleaners and I'm asking the lady what day I want to get my stuff back, but she can't understand me either. I go outside and I'm rolling up on eight and nine motherfuckers
Starting point is 01:47:26 because I live in, you know, when you live in certain areas, there's really just white. And you know, I'm boogey. So, yeah, I'm in some fly shit. Okay. So they're looking at me like I'm crazy. Like, who's this black guy walking up on us? Asked him.
Starting point is 01:47:38 And I finally met a guy. He walked in, talked to her, and told her what day I wanted something back. And so those are the moments that I have. But normally when I'm there, I'm usually quiet. I just go to a gym like 4 in the morning. Me and my daughter will go to the cafe or something. And one of the greatest things is just to sit on the corner at a cafe because your chairs face to the street.
Starting point is 01:48:01 And I sit there and there's something on my face, sipping on my cafe. Cappuccino and just really thanking God on what I've accomplished. Why did you move to Paris? Why did you move to Paris? Because I'm a fly, nigg. I do fly shit. What was the biggest coaster shot going there? I've been traveling my whole life.
Starting point is 01:48:24 And that's why I want people to travel more so it doesn't seem impressive. Right. See, going someplace seem impressive because people don't travel. But if you travel, it's just like going. Going to New York. It's just like going to L.A. But be honest, traveling somewhere and living somewhere, two different things. Two different things, yeah.
Starting point is 01:48:40 Yeah. I mean, when you got little change, you know, you just want to live a certain way. And it all started because my daughter went to study abroad. Oh, okay. And I just liked and I stayed. So how long have you been there for it, right? Five, six years. Wow.
Starting point is 01:48:54 So what I do is because I still got to have my benefits here because I am present hormone association and I am a senior citizen. Is here? Yes, in Vegas. You know, you buck. Yeah, so I go overseas for like four or five weeks, and then I come back. So now with the TV show, I got to come back, but I still go back because it's just a personal achievement to get on the plane, first class, to fly over there and just do a little, live a certain life. That's dope.
Starting point is 01:49:21 So when I leave here Tuesday, I go to Paris, and I go to South of France for a couple days, and I shoot up with London, because I got a big show in London and D.C., I mean in December. and what I'm doing is on my promotion I want people from the States and all over we fly to London on the 5th to do my show and the next day we catch the Euro train, you know that. Right all the way over to Paris to do a show in Paris on 6th.
Starting point is 01:49:46 That's December. That's December. But you missed it. He lives in Paris, but he's the... He knew it though. He's the president of the Homeowner Association. No, he didn't know this part. He here in Vegas. That's crazy. That's crazy. He knew that. He knew that. Yeah, you knew that. You knew that? I kind of knew the Homeward Association was
Starting point is 01:50:01 I thought you had to live here to be the president of the homeowner. I do live here too. Yeah, yeah. I'm just doing it out of visa because I'm smart. Right, right, right. Yeah, because, you know, if I stayed over there three, four months consistently, it's a difference, you know, but I go back and forth. So you don't got dual citizens? I don't have dual citizens.
Starting point is 01:50:18 I don't, okay, okay. Yeah. You know, in my life insurance, and then my life is my, so if I die overseas, I never come back. That's how I have everything set up. Oh, shit. Yeah. So if I, you ever hear me pass and it's overseas, I don't get, I'm, I don't get, I'm, I'm, I'm, come back.
Starting point is 01:50:32 My family member got a family member got to come see me, identify the body. No, I stay there. I get buried overseas. I'm hoping that's where I died too. How do you feel the, the perception of Americans are you live in there?
Starting point is 01:50:46 In France? I'm on my business. I'm not sure that I'm my mom. I'm a bugger business. You know, I just think of perception is based on who you are, right? Right. You know, sometimes when you're on white people, you feel uncomfortable because when you know history of,
Starting point is 01:51:00 what they've done to our people, you know. And I really study on what they've done to our people. That's why I take pride in being a man. I take pride in being successful. I think pride in my achievements because what our ancestors have gone through and what they have put up with, the homes getting burnt down, bank accounts getting stolen, land taken away from it, right?
Starting point is 01:51:25 Like, that's a horrible situation. And to have achieved what I'm doing is really sometimes, how I think is for them as well because we came up on the fucked up system. Right. Right. He's really fucked up. And then when you're overseas and you see people of different colors speaking six, seven languages and knowing how we got
Starting point is 01:51:42 played here in America, you know, thinking that's really about America, but it's really about the world. And when I was in Berlin, I'm going to see the Berlin Wall, you know. Me and my daughter was a Berlin Wall. And I got a cousin there's in Nairobi. So we're
Starting point is 01:51:59 talking and his friends on the phone. and talk to me about the situation in Benin, Nigeria. He said, I ain't going to tell you about it. He said, you can find out for yourself. So me checking out Benin, Nigeria, I saw something that was powerful that I want to share with your audience. They got a wall in Benin, Nigeria that's five times bigger than a Great Wall of China. Shit, they never taught us in school.
Starting point is 01:52:23 As old as the Great Wall as well? Five times bigger. Is it as old? Yeah, because they built it to protect themselves in war. But it was huge. But again, I also find it fascinating what the Europeans did. I can see them taking over a city, like one little city. Right.
Starting point is 01:52:40 Then what fucks took over the world? Right. That's some phenomenal shit, yo. You know? When you take over the world and then to go over and live in, go to the antroch Brussels. And I'm saying in a hotel and all the paintings in there are black people. How they know the truth about where they came. from. They know the black people's phenomenal,
Starting point is 01:53:02 but we're so brainwashed that it can never be accepted a day. When you see the Last Supper has done but white people because we all are delusional because since we was children, our grandparents had that damn picture on the wall of a white Jesus.
Starting point is 01:53:19 And it's not true. Right. You know, and people argue and disbelief and say that you're a liar, but this is the truth. That's why we got to study. When the Moors ran Spain in the eighth century, right? Like, they ran Spain to understand that Europe is named after a black woman and Europa.
Starting point is 01:53:39 Like, these things are powerful, but a lot of people don't know this shit. That's the problem right now. Nobody has historical context, Adam. Exactly. It's all over the goddamn thing. You don't know anything. You don't know nothing. How about Hannibal in Europe?
Starting point is 01:53:51 Absolutely. And then you go to the museum. And you see how they stole everything. Right. And when you see the black art, you go to the museum, I go to museums all the time. the black artist is way in the back they never show you with the shit that they stole
Starting point is 01:54:05 even when you used to see Queen Elizabeth them crowns and diamonds that's just from Africa Oh yeah It's just from Africa y'all And I think My man from Aviam Torre
Starting point is 01:54:19 From Bucaso Faso I think Bokinza Bokinza Pasa Pekisa they was trying to get some of their paintings back from other country And the motherfuckers told them No it's better
Starting point is 01:54:30 if we kept it. Shit, they stole from Africa. All this stuff that the oil and all the stuff that they're doing through the channel, with the oil, this stuff is coming from third world countries, Africa, the minerals that we have over there,
Starting point is 01:54:43 and America runs it. Right. That's some, man, that's some crazy shit. Yeah. And then when they say that they blew up, who they say, who, who did, who the people of war with? Iran.
Starting point is 01:54:57 Iran. And they said they blew them up. Remember the first bomb? They said we literally. Yeah. And these motherfuckers are still fighting. Like, what did you bomb? Fire and like a little movie fucking.
Starting point is 01:55:07 Yeah. Like, what the fuck did you bomb? Because these motherfuckers are still coming. Right. To me, when you destroy shit, niggas, like, what you want? What you want? We give whatever you want. Them motherfuckers is fighting.
Starting point is 01:55:19 Yeah. And I love a fighter. You know, I'm Americans. I ain't going to go against us. But I do love a fighter. Somebody that I don't want to give up. Right. And that's a historical context thing.
Starting point is 01:55:29 We go into these places. We don't know the history. We don't know how long, how much they have fought. Yes. We don't know their culture. Yes. And then we go in there and we get fucked up. That happened in Iraq.
Starting point is 01:55:40 That happened in Afghanistan. And people got to be smart. Everything to make us go to war is when they say they can't have nuclear weapons. When it was Hassan Hussein or whatever. Saddam Hussein, yeah. Weapons of mass destruction. It was all lie. All lies.
Starting point is 01:55:58 It was all lies. But the American people, they get behind this shit and get played every fucking time. And people are dying on this man's watch. Right. They should make all the Congress, they got to send their kids to war. Yeah. Even when they shut down the government, the politicians shouldn't get paid either. Everybody should motherfuck to suffer.
Starting point is 01:56:20 They should definitely not get paid. Yeah, they should not get paid. Because we want people not to suffer. The goal to me in government is how can we make everybody successful? But the 1% wants everything. They want to see people poor and struggling. But it should be how can we make everybody a winner? How can we all on this planet get along with each other?
Starting point is 01:56:49 We competing against Russia, China. Everybody's fighting against each other. Whereas the meetings should be the G summit, whatever they do. oh, that should be, how can we make the poor successful? No, they want dependency. They do. Because you still going to get taxes. It's like with the AI stuff.
Starting point is 01:57:06 I came up with philosophy. They're going to have all these robots. I think it should be a law that all of us should own a robot, right? We pay the get it, maintenance it. Right. But that robot is sort of like your butler. They work for you. So that person gets to check because they can work 24 hours.
Starting point is 01:57:21 You can stay home, spend time with your family, made your kids. But you get a check for your robot. and you still make money. That's a cold strategy right there, yo. Well, they kind of got that with the Tesla. They're saying that the Tesla could be your car and be your Uber. Like, you could put it out for an Uber. Yeah, but here's the thing.
Starting point is 01:57:39 I read up on that. You know, I'm Vizman. Do you know they're not going to let the public invest in that? Oh, I guarantee that. They don't want that. It's fucked up, yo, because I, this is years ago. Like, way more. Like, yeah.
Starting point is 01:57:49 Like, your car could be, like, once you're done, you go home, go to sleep, goes out to work for you. Yeah. No, you can do that. but I wanted to invest in the business side of that. You can't invest in it? Yeah, you can't.
Starting point is 01:58:01 There's something about you. I'm investing Tesla, but that's a different department for some reason. I can't remember offhand. But it's something that, say it again? It's a lot of stuff.
Starting point is 01:58:17 Sonny, you didn't come with that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's true. So I, so soon as episode, even in the war, I found the way to make money. So you, You know, when they show all this stuff about the, when they were shooting. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:58:29 And I'm watching the news one day. And I saw lasers knocking out drones in the sky. I said, who the, what the fuck? So I went on JCPT. I said, yo, what company develop the lasers that's shooting the drones? And I got all that information I invested in the company right there on the spot. Yeah, just like investing in Nvidia. Yeah, because I see things other people who don't see.
Starting point is 01:58:53 Right. See, people watching the action. And I was like, who the fuck made that? That was important to me. I wanted to know who made that. Lasers. Yeah, that knocks down the drones. Yeah, knock out the drones, though.
Starting point is 01:59:07 They don't do it with missiles no more. They actually, like it looked like a damn video game. Yeah, it's an energy weapon. You've seen it. They actually, they got a dude rolling with Trump, and he's got a big-ass gun, and it's a laser gun. Pride is like love. You feel it in your heart. IR Radio.

I've been invested in water, and not like bottles of water, the water that runs the apps, the digital water. Because what people don't know these chat GPT, all these apps. Oh yeah, they need water. They need water.
Starting point is 02:03:03 Right. And they have used more water than they ever used in like 20, 30 years. I heard that. Yeah, the shit is crazy. They say it's going to fuck us up. It's going to fuck us up. We're not going to feel it now. But the next 15... How does chat? GBT need water. What is it?
Starting point is 02:03:21 Remember, for all this shit to work, They're hard drives. Hard drives. They're working. So they have these huge buildings with like thousands of hard drives running. These things are running 24-7. Imagine you're using ChatGPT 24-7. So these things are overheating.
Starting point is 02:03:35 They pump water into it. When they put the water, that's it. That water's not. You can't drink it. You can't use that. Is that what Drake burned down in the video? Come on, bro. I don't know.
Starting point is 02:03:44 He burned down the box. Oh, the box. But not, that's not the same thing. It's not the same shit. He burned down a bot farm, which is a click farm. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, so that right there is insane.
Starting point is 02:03:55 Yeah. So the water is the key. If you can find out. Wow. Yeah, it's so many ways to make a little bit of change. Yeah. It's crazy. And I try to be, I swear to God, get up early morning after my lead blower, sit on my couch, got my candle lit, and I meditate to the universe.
Starting point is 02:04:12 Like I said, I'm in the quantum physics. I love quantum physics. I love light years away and other. Can you break that down for people who don't know? So here's the thing about one light year. It's phenomenal. See, the planets that we're looking at, you know that's reflection. Yeah, that light is old.
Starting point is 02:04:26 So that's like over 200-something years. So these planets now can be developed. So let's say if somebody's on another planet two, three light years away and they're studying Earth, do you know they are seeing the Roman Empire? Yeah. They're not seeing what's happening now because it takes time for light to travel. So they're saying what happened 200-something years ago. That's some deep shit, yo. Yeah, that's deep.
Starting point is 02:04:52 So I'm always impressed with that type of stuff. I like that type of stuff. That's just me. So, no, hold on, hold on. I'm sorry. I wanted to say one more thing, what we were talking about before. Actually, somebody developed an app that you can watch what the people in the Congress and Senate are investing in. Now, I need to give you a tell on what you need to invest.
Starting point is 02:05:13 Oh, absolutely. It tells you what they know already. Oh, no, no, no. You don't understand. So let me just be clear of what you just said. When you hear the Democrats going against the Republicans, you best to believe they're invested in the companies
Starting point is 02:05:26 that they're saying not the fuck with. Most of these, Nancy Pelosi and all the, Nancy Pelosi is worth $127 million, Joe. They get the inside on the deals and a millionaires, man.
Starting point is 02:05:41 Not no small chains. And whoever government that app, if you see what they're invested in, listen, no, follow that app. I need that. Yeah, Google. That's the of June 6th. That's the lady office. They were, all of them are in that.
Starting point is 02:05:56 They were after Hart, though. They were after Mike Pence, really. They wanted to get Mike Pence, too. Oh, wow. Yeah. But that's amazing about that, right? All those people was against Trump for like three hours. Yep.
Starting point is 02:06:06 And then afterwards. Well, you saw what happened. He just parted them, what is it, 1,500 of them? Yeah, that's what he created. And he created a fund for them. Get the fuck out. Yeah. Which they're saying is a side hustle,
Starting point is 02:06:19 what that fund's going to probably become. But it's a fun to help them. with all the expenses he endured. Wow. You think we'll have another black president? Like, like,
Starting point is 02:06:30 but I don't want to use the word, the end word. I think we'll have a Spanish president. I think we'll have a Spanish American president for a black one. Okay, now, Spanish, though. Puerto Rican.
Starting point is 02:06:42 Well, no, but it'll be another, it'll be Spanish. That guarantee it. Okay. Because. With all the ice has been going on, I just been fucking is up. Now, remember, it's only four years.
Starting point is 02:06:51 It's just going to change. In the next 50 years, and we would have a president that's Spanish, I guarantee it. I'm in a good. This is my interview, gentlemen. See, people,
Starting point is 02:07:04 because I'm getting comfortable. We've got to check that shit. These motherfuckers are getting real comfortable. The only black person that I asked the, Cory Booker, do you know, Cory from, Corey from Newark.
Starting point is 02:07:15 Yeah, I know, yeah. I like him a lot. I like him a lot. I like him a lot. I like Cory, too. I like D.O. Hughley, but no one takes me serious
Starting point is 02:07:21 when I'm bringing it out. Politics? Yeah. I think D.L. D.L. Him and Gopry is the two top intelligent comedians ever. Okay.
Starting point is 02:07:30 I enjoy listening to them to see how brilliant they are and the way to talk. Oh, it's fascinating to me. I don't know if D.L. knows this. But a lot of the politics that I get from his Instagram.
Starting point is 02:07:43 That's awesome. Like, you know what I'm saying? I trust him. Yeah. You know what I trust him. He's a good guy. I know he's not trying to win me over persuade me.
Starting point is 02:07:50 No. He's giving his point of view. You gotta have him on drink change. He's an honest guy. I love him. He's a man's man. Yeah. And I think I said it one time, or I said it under his comments.
Starting point is 02:08:01 He's like, man, I think you should run for president. And he said something about, like, like, like, his past or something like that. And I'm like, dude, I think at this point, the dirty year past is. No, no. The more people don't give him for. When you're white, you're passed on me now. Oh, shit. When you're black.
Starting point is 02:08:16 You grab my pussy. You do this shit. That's what you did. Right. You got him off. There's no black president that can touch a woman's pussy. Right. Or do the shit that Trump did.
Starting point is 02:08:28 And first you ain't even going to make it. Obama made it because he really had to be one of the most purest black men on the planet. Right. That's real. You had to go. They probably went to the crib where he was born. And then next to another baby. See if he touched another child.
Starting point is 02:08:46 He's such a nice guy. You don't get to be president in a president. and a black person and I have a clean record. Wow. He had a clean record. What do you think about Michelle Obama having a podcast? I think everybody should have a podcast. The only thing I disliked about the podcast
Starting point is 02:09:02 when Obama said everybody should have a gay friend. Yeah, that fucked me up. Like, you know, like, come on now. No disrespect to gay people. You got to understand, I'll come from a different era. I'm not going to change that. I'm not going to change it for nobody. I want men to be men.
Starting point is 02:09:19 and women to be women. I want women to be soft. I want men to be strong. I mean, what's going on? The way I think is dinosaurs, that's why we have to die because our way of thinking is old and it's time for the new to come in.
Starting point is 02:09:33 But until I die, is how I'm thinking. And so having a gay friend is not a... I can't have a gay friend. It's confusing. I'm on the plane the other day. This is confusing. I'm on the plane the other day.
Starting point is 02:09:53 The two women were men and the two guys acting like bitches. I went to sleep. I said, there's no way I'm like when this shit the whole motherfuck of a flight.

Starting point is 02:11:35 You know if he does it Do you think I was surprised earlier When we actually Coming to America Or Harlem Night Right The reason why I said that is because
Starting point is 02:11:49 Since Harlem Knights We have never seen all the y'all together like all the comedies. Right, right. Like that movie, there was no extras. It was an amazing thing if you look at it that way. The reason I say coming to America
Starting point is 02:12:04 to see a black man, a king, a prince, and the fly-est part of that movie is when he pulled up in Harlem and them beautiful women got the car, I was throwing roses down. On the walk into, oh, nigger, that's some fly-shit. The male-flagland. But that Harlem was that Queens? Because don't take Queen, don't take that away from Queens.
Starting point is 02:12:21 It's New York. Okay, all right, cool. I think that's queen. Yeah, yeah. But that's when... The reason why I've been coming to America. I always... I rode the bike.
Starting point is 02:12:28 It was queen. Yeah, it's queen. Yeah, it's queen. I wrote my bike. Let me tell you something. I love this story. I rolled my bike up to there. And I saw them filming.

Starting point is 02:13:07 But yeah, yeah, I'll see a screenshot. They actually show it. Like, when they dumped out the garbage, like, that's how Queens is really fucked up. That's what a Pan American. This is when Times Square was good. Oh, yeah. This is a lot of Times Square was horrible.
Starting point is 02:13:21 I went there a couple times. Oh, man, the hustling Times Square. That was crazy. It was crazy. Like, for the people who are born now just to see the way it is, to see it way back then, they would be scared of hell. But what happened? Disney bought it, right?

Starting point is 02:18:42 And you've made a whole bunch of different accomplishments, man. How do you deal that with that and balance that and keep on going, keep the attitude that you got without that trauma. Well, to some people's trauma, I have learned to play the hand that you dealt. I understand life.
Starting point is 02:19:00 I know the contract. The contract of life is people are going to die. It's part of the game. The goal is to live all the seasons. What's all the seasons? It's a witness birth, the witness death, the witness happiness and witness sadness. And if you lived, you'll never be afraid to die.
Starting point is 02:19:17 the people are afraid to die or the people who haven't lived. And I have truly lived. So that's a powerful thing. You know what I'm saying? Take a good. Let's make it happen. Give me a favor. My car should be out there.
