New Rory & MAL - Episode 323 | Fragile Opp

Episode Date: November 26, 2024

MUSTAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRDDDDDDDD. Have yall heard the album yet? We have. After a quick recap about the Atlanta show, the guys get into their review of the new Kendrick Lamar project ‘GNX’ (07:54). They also discuss whether there’s another album coming, why we think Baby Keem isnt on the album, as well as whether Lil Wayne should respond or not. In the middle of our recording day, the news dropped that Drake was filing a motion against his licensing partner Universal Music Group, alleging that Kendrick’s Not Like Us track was pushed by the label purposely to affect Drake in multiple ways (55:59). The team goes into explaining the article and allegations, and they also speak on what this could mean for the music industry in the future. Drake also went on a stream earlier this weekend, doubling down on his beef with a few r&b artists, and it brings up conversation about the media outlets Drake chooses to sit with and the criticism he’s received in the past for it (1:12:06). Also discussed: Shaboozey getting snubbed by the CMA’s (1:31:36), which NRM team member is the meanest, and the ozempic allegations being put on Lizzo (1:35:19). We have voicemails! The first one is from a guy who has developed a health condition in his mid twenties that he's embarrassed about (1:51:31), and the second is from a man who wants to know if anybody on the team has ever had a “right person, wrong time” scenario (2:02:07).For MORE Rory & Mal, make sure you subscribe to our Patreon community, for exclusive episodes, first access to tickets and merch sales, private live chats with the team, + more! https://www.patreon.com/newrorynmalFollow Rory: @ThisIsRoryFollow MAL: @MAL_ByTheWayFollow Julian: @Julian__nicholasFollow Demaris on YT: https://www.youtube.com/@DemarisG To watch the podcast on YouTube: https://bit.ly/NewRoryAndMALYouTube Don’t forget to follow the podcast for free wherever you're listening or by using this link: https://bit.ly/NewRoryAndMAL Learn more about your ad choices.

Who is excited to celebrate Well, never mind It's like a holiday It's like celebrating the genocide out of an I'm about to say. You know what? Let's celebrate

Bring around family. I thought years ago we decided we wasn't celebrating Thanksgiving no more. Oh then we started funding another Genesis what happened?

Yeah. What's the difference? I'm saying everybody be so up in arms and we're not celebrating Thanksgiving no more. It's friends giving and that's it.

What? It's actually, it was hovesful, right? No, like everything. Well, yeah. He did say, don't say happy Thanksgiving to me.

It's like saying happy slaughtered to me. Whatever he said on let's get free. Meek Mill. It's Indigenous People's Day. That's on Friday though, right? Or that's on Thursday as well. I thought that's...

No, they like made it the name of the... Yeah, Thursday. Thanksgiving is now called. People don't know. They don't know what they want. But see, even that's like kind of like offensive, I feel like... People just don't want to work. Don't call it Indigenous People Day when... Wait, no. Indigenous People's Day... Sorry, Indigenous People's Day is what's formerly known as Columbus Day.

Oh, yeah, you're right. You're right. So Thanksgiving is not... It's just still Thanksgiving. We just... message of what we're celebrating on Thanksgiving is no longer this fake peace. But we're still calling it Thanksgiving. Yeah. Because you could be thankful for your family, like Rory said. With all this like 23M.E shit and everything, how come there's not more reports of people finding out that they were

exactly like the Pilgrims? Like that was your family. Brough. That is. Amish, right? No. The Amish. That's not an extension of the Pilgrims? No. Just because they have similar hats. No, no, no. They shop at the same store. They wear the same colors.

It's acidic Jews do as well. Yeah, like they all wear the same colors. It's different religions. But I wish there was more people coming forward and be like, yes, that was my lineage that slaughtered an entire race. That's 23 of me.

It should come like with an asterisk if you're one of those people. And like the whole world gets a mass email. Like this person is tied to all this. Didn't they get rid of it? the 23M-E? Like, didn't the company fold or something like that

or shut down? No, all their, everyone on their board left because they're doing nasty stuff. With the, which, which we knew

it was coming. Yeah. There was also a data breach that happened as well. Oh, okay. Just, just, yeah. Black Rock?

I mean, Black Rock owns me too, so it's all good. People have trouble getting into your eye cloud that doesn't even matter. And for some reason, 23 and me just hacked.

You know, the cameras were off that day. The security guard was asleep. someone hung the data. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get it. 23 and me. They got your swabs, right?

Yeah, they got you. But I gave up, but they have everything on us. Like, I don't mind, even at TSA now when they lie and be like, we delete the photo after we take it. Then why did you take the fucking photo? Yeah. You see the new digital ID thing? I thought about you when I was going through the airport Atlanta. I was like, Rory definitely has digital ID.

I don't have it yet, but I probably will get it if it means I don't have to go through the line. Because, again, they have everything. Like, I have no problem doing face ID. Take my spit. You have everything. I've given up trying to be that conspiracy guy that's going to protect himself from the government. They have it all. This is what pisses me off at the airport.

First they come, they have, you know, sky priority. Remember when that used to be a thing? Of course. Now that's not a thing no more. Now it's, remember, the global, global entry. Global entry. Wait, why you're saying sky priority isn't? Because sky priority.

If we're all flying sky priority, the line is still long. If you have fucking clear, if everybody has clear in the airport, the line is long. Precheck is there now. Now clear is turned. it to now digital idea is a thing now. So what the fuck is clear? But here's where they get me. There's been times that the pre-check line

is longer than the regular civilian line, but I don't feel like taking off my shoes and taking my laptop up. So I'll just stay in the pre-check line. I choose whichever line shorter. That's where I'm at. Yeah. They're all the same.

Because you're right. Now, like the barrier is so low that it doesn't even... Digital ID, clear. Having nothing is the best option. I did clear where they took my picture and then showed me my own picture that had just taken before that

to renew my clear. And then I got to the line and someone was holding up their phone and said, Rory, right? I was like, how the fuck did you know that? She shows me her phone. It's my photo and my name. I was like, all right,

at all the people in line, you just knew I had to be next. Then they said, can we take a photo of you even though clears, because you don't need an ID? They said, don't worry, we'll delete that photo. And then I got on my plane

where instead of putting my ticket down, they took a photo of me. Yeah. They got your beautiful face all throughout the airport. Every step I took. Yeah. I was thinking like got to the urinal, got to take a photo.

I'm getting a global entry, though, for sure. I'm definitely going to go to the airport. I just don't, I haven't done international enough like consistently in the last few years to get it. Yeah, I'm getting that. Fuck that. Because it only works with customs, right? No, any airport.

Oh, I thought it was just a customs international type of thing. No, I mean, it is for that, but if you go to, if you're just flying to Atlanta, you have global entry, you can go to the airport, you go to the global entry. So I just walk right through. Oh, okay. Yeah. Well, speaking of which, we went to Atlanta over the week,

again. Yes. Thank you to everybody that came out to the show. Had a great time in Atlanta. Great show. Thank you to all the beautiful people that came out. Everybody at the meet and greet that we met such cool people, met some really cool people. Shout out to our guy, Judah who flew in all the way from Barbados and proposed. It was Bahamas or Barbados? Bahamas. You sure? You sure. Positive. All right. Well, wherever you're from, Judah. Congratulations. Judah came on stage and proposed his girlfriend. He came to the meet and greet and he told me on the side, he was like,

yo, listen, man, I want to propose to my girl tonight, whatever, on stage. I was like, cinema, man. That was smooth, because when he whispered in your ear, it was so quick, I thought he was asking, like, where the bitch is at, like, behind his girl's back. And then once they left, you were like, yo, he wants to come on stage and propose. I was like, how did he get that line off to you that quickly? Yeah.

And it was funny because this girl, like, she was, like, kind of had an attitude. She was pissed. Yeah, so, I mean, you know. They flew from the beautiful Bahamas to Atlanta, Georgia, to go. go to a live podcast show of a podcast she had never heard to then sit at a meet and greet. She looked pissed. Yeah. Then she got on stage like, what am I doing up here?

Yeah. And all was right in the world once he got down on one. Once he got down on one knee. She was smiling ear to ear. We became her favorite podcast. You're probably listening right now. Yeah, she subscribed to the Patreon. On stage. Yeah, yeah, on stage.

She opened the phone and subscribe to the Patreon. So thank you to everybody that came out. I had a great time. Good to see some of my people from high school came out. Haven't seen them in a few years. So it was good to see my boys, man. but the energy was in the room because the day of our live show

we were sitting there trying to put together our show incredible show with so many segments so many fan interaction things we said segments just a great night just a beautiful live show and me and Pete looked at each other like why the fuck do we need to do any of this

the only thing people are going to want to hear about is mall listening to the Kendrick Lamar album in real time the whole show could have just been you guys watching Maul react to the album just sitting on the stage listening to you sitting on the couch We considered just doing a song by song listening session of that album during the live show. Yeah.

But to my surprise, a lot of people that came, I thought were going to be concerned about Mall, making jokes, laughing. All of them were kind of on his side, like, yo, fuck TDE. I was like, Jesus Christ. I thought, like, as a crew, we were all going to laugh at Mall that this Kendrick shit dropped in that he's, you know, batting a thousand this year. and everyone was just yelling at me, yo, fuck you, is OVO over here.

Like, I thought we was, thought he ran to Atlanta to get the sauce from y'all. I thought you didn't like him. Yeah, no. It was all a lie. So, on Friday, Kendra dropped, what, around noon, was it?

Around noon. Around noon, yeah. Because my phone started ringing while I was in the shower. I didn't know what was happening. I broke the news. Yeah, I was like, broke the news.

You broke the news. You did not break the news that Kendrick Lamar dropped out. I did, because I sent it in the group chat, and then I went on Twitter. and there wasn't any chatter about it yet. You started the conversation. In our group chat.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I said, oh, shit, like, he dropped a teaser. And then I, first shits, I went on Apple music. And I was like, let me see if he uploaded it as a song to Apple. Because it was like a 30 second clip. And I was like, holy fuck, there's an album. And then I send it to you guys.

So do you think, did Dave or Anthony reach out to you personally? Like, hey, Julian, can you get the conversation going on this Kendrick album? Oh, yeah. It went on deaf ears. No one. No one knew. Well, that's why the first week numbers are going to be so low. because the shit

went through you. Yeah. So, yes, around noon, Kendrick dropped. I did, similar to what we did when

Cizzer dropped when we were in Seattle. Everyone kind of just went for walks. You didn't walk around Atlanta. Oh, I walked around. I got my steps in.

Yeah, surprised you're here. I mean, I went in the safe, safe stuff. The hotel lobby? I'm not fucking crazy. I know where not to go

in Atlanta. So I went on a walk and gave it to listen. I don't even think we spoke to the green room. We didn't. Which of course, you know, to my surprise, you didn't hate it.

No, I didn't hate it. But... I mean, I've seen people saying it's better than Mr. Morale. I think that's crazy. I can make a case. Look at everyone being quiet. Before we got on this mic, everyone claimed they hated this album.

I was the only one that said they liked it. Julian said it was the worst thing he ever fucking heard. That's a wall. Damara said she hadn't even listened to it yet. That's not fair. Pete said it stunk Maul we already knew what type of time it was I'm walking in here to say that I think

this Kendrick album is great I think it's better than Mr. Moral I think it has more replay value than Mr. Moral I think the production is light gears ahead of Mr. Morale Kendra probably said more on Mr. Morale but as an album that I think I'm going to continue to listen to I can see myself going back to a lot of these songs whereas Mr. Morale

the intro I love I go back to him Is it the music that you like more than Mr. Morale? Somebody on Twitter. called an evil hyphy album. And yes, I think I love evil hyphy. This is an easier album to listen to. I mean, I think it's the opposite. I think the beats are tough to listen to.

But that's why I like them. But I think he's talking about the entire listening experience because you guys' complaint with Mr. Moral was that it has no replay value. When it first came all, you guys said it was just like, it was like, I'm not going to put this on. No, I had to be in the right mood for the replay value, and that is a very specific mood

that doesn't happen all the time. But United and Grief I listen to all the time. Father time I listen to a lot. Count me out. And that's probably where it stops as far as constant replay value with Mr. Moral, which is tough because when it comes to Kendrick's catalog, all of it has replay value to me. To Pimba Butterfly, again, I have to be in a certain mood,

but that has replay value. But damn, I could listen to front to back today, tomorrow for the rest of my life. Good kid, same thing. Section 80, same thing. All right, slow down. Overly dedicated same thing. So let's get to GNX. So because you text the group chat this morning and said you liked the entire album, every song.

Not equally, but I do love every. The thing for me is obviously it's some good songs on you. I just don't think that all of them have replay value, in my opinion. Some of the music I don't like. GNX, I thought they did a great job. I think that beat, I hate that beat. but I think they did a great job at catching it and flowing on it.

But that music. It went crazy on that. Yeah, that's like the music. That sounds like it's haunting. Yeah, but that the music, the offbeat, it sounds like, remember when Ludacris was on a punk and they had him in a booth? Yeah.

And they was playing that beat. Such a weird reference. He was trying to catch the beat. He was like, I don't know a pocket. But that's how I felt listening. That's how I fell listening to the GenX. I'm like, it's such an awkward beat. And you know what I'm saying?

I'm like, I don't just like, it's not easy on the ear. to me, to me. And this is all subjective. This is just me. I just didn't. I don't think I could listen to that. Now, they did a great job at catching it and flowing on it and getting off on it. But I don't, I don't like to me.

Being slightly delayed and it's more of a Detroit thing than a West Coast thing. But being slightly delayed right now is a huge genre of hip-hop, not really being in the pocket. Detroit made that shit famous. But I've seen other regions using it. I think they did their West Coast rendition of it. Cool. I'm just saying I won't be bumping that. And even back to the Haifie things, and I know most of these, if not all these features are from the Los Angeles area. But we've talked about how a lot of mustard sound really derives from the Bay more than it derives from Los Angeles.

A lot of Hafei shit is offbeat. Nobody's really in the pocket. Like you're going stupid dumb, retarded Haifie little yellow bus. And I'm allowed to say that word because it's a hyphy thing. It's an homage. That shit is offbeat too. So, Even, I think a lot of this is Bay Area inspired. And you kind of have to be offbeat to catch that type of shit. I get it. Which is respectable, but, you know, Maul's saying you don't have to like it. Yeah, but Maul, what other songs were you, do you like?

Or don't like. I was doing don't like. I like Wacked Out Morals, I'm sorry. Morals. Wacked out murals. Great intro. Yeah. Started off great. Squabble up is cool.

I wasn't too crazy about it. Luther, I love. Man at the Garden. that's the one mic sample, I think. Everyone was saying one mic, which I got, but my first impression of that record was Pock staring through my rearview. Okay. Either or.

I hear one mic. But it's definitely one mic. Yeah, I wasn't really crazy about that. Hey now is okay. Say now. Reincarnated. That's the one where he screams mustard, the second half of Hay Now. No, that would be turn your T-B-O.

TV off. Reincarnated, I don't want to hear Kendrick rapping like Pock. Okay, but Drake's a lot. to rap like him. No, obviously he's not. Kendrick had to take it down. So clearly he's not. Nobody's allowed.

The C&D did that. Yeah, nobody's allowed in my opinion. Okay, but why? Because I love that. Because Bach is no long with us. All right, but people, Hove wrapped big lyrics after Big passed and took big flows after he passed. Not in his voice, though.

He wasn't, he always used influxions like big. He just used lyrics. Games, Doctors Advocate album, which I absolutely love. He is legitimately. doing the first version of AI of Dr. Dre's voice. Okay, I don't like that. Okay, I don't like that either. But it's a, it's, I dare I say, a classic album. No, the album is great. The album is great. He wraps the tone. He changed his tone from the

documentary to Dr. Dre's voice. You do this when we talk about Kendrick. You always bring other rappers into it. Let's stay on Kendrick. Okay, fine. Well, I'm talking about Tupac. I'm talking about Kemp. You don't, did you like the beat flip, though? Because that's like kind of a Tupac seaside. It was cool. I wasn't mad at it. It was cool. TV off I liked. Dodge of Blue I love Peekable Love peekaboo Which one is that? I can't remember

Is that the one with the beat I'm thinking of? The haunting one? The scary beat. He said, heard about your man's not sorry for your loss. All the features got off on this. Hard part six I like. I mean, anytime you use the SWV sample, I'm listening.

I love the story. It was more in detail. I feel like we've gotten this TDE story in different pieces. about Kendrick's career was nice that he put it all in one record. But even like Hart Part 3 was so in schoolboy, like you get some of the story. Again, I loved it. Yeah.

But would that beat, I don't know if I needed the TDE like history lesson. But I guess with all new fans, you got to do that. I'm just, I'm an old angry fan with shit I've already heard. I mean, I like the fact that he talked about, he talked about, you know, basically he felt like the only thing missing from his career was he didn't have his business up to par the way he should to be as big of an artist as he is. Which, if we go all the way back to like that, when we were debating of what angles each of these artists were going to take, when we still thought Cole was in the mix as far as this beef, we had discussed the one thing that you can say about Kendrick, if you're Cole or Drake is, we have our own companies and our own business, our own labels, we've been doing this our whole career. You just playing catch up now. You can't be a big three to us because look at what we're doing on the business side outside of music. So I did find it interesting that he was honest about that part Because that was a chink in his armor that for some reason

No one brought up during this battle Like all right I guess I guess Drake kind of did with the top Flip like all right tops making you do Taylor Swift shit This and that you owe top 50 I guess it was there But I think Drake would have fared better in this battle had he went down that Rabbit hole rather than some of the hey your friend is the father of your child. Yeah.

Like he really could have got into the facts situation. And I think Kendrick would have looked a little crazier and is not, now he has the eight mile moment. Like, I already said it. Yeah. You can't say that shit about me now. Now I have PG-Lang. I think that beef aside, obviously, you know, the beef is a big part of this album and

everything around the album that people are talking about. Where does this stand with you as far as Kendrick's catalog, discography? I know it's unfair to. It's only been out for a weekend. But so. But you said you like every song on the album. I don't think you've ever said you like every song on other Kendrick albums. I don't think you've ever said that.

I, which isn't fair, I pretend that the U-2 song is not on damn. Like on my version that's out of it. I don't even use Apple Music for damn. But outside of that. I go to my library where the version without that U-2 song is. But outside of that, every song on damn. Flawless. I think it's probably one of the most flawless rap albums that's ever existed.

Good Kid Mad City. I don't think there's a single skip on it. to Pimp a Butterfly took me a while to get into it. Even though I think people would assume that's my type of shit, it wasn't, it didn't really sit with me in the best way

for the first few years. I've gotten more into Pimp a Butterfly lately than I did when it came out. Section 80, flawless. O.D., the real version, flawless. So it's really only been Mr. Moral that I started to feel a way about Kendrick's

about a Kendrick album, not his discography, where I was like, all right, I can skip on this. This feels lazy. This didn't need to be a double album. Like, just do the therapy records. Those are the standouts. Like, I love Blass. I love summer.

I didn't really need either of those records. Yeah. I love Ghostface. Didn't need it. Well, on GNX for me, I was in chat earlier talking. I like, I think, six or seven out of the 12 that I think I like on the album.

Which would be, whacked out murals. Looser. Looser. TV off. TV off you said you like. Dodger Blue. Hard part six.

How many is that four or five? You don't like Gloria? About Gloria. The last record was sizzis. Glory, I like Gloria. All right. So that's six. Yeah.

Do you guys think, and I... Pigaboo is fire, this is becoming a narrative that I am believing even before I started becoming a thing. Do you think this is like

his effort of this is his album? Or is this? I get it. I've said, I've used the word mixtape. I was like, how is it a mixtape? It's not, it is an album, but is it the album? Do we think there's another thing coming not too far from this one? This is a deluxe coming.

I think that that's, I don't know if it'll be paired with this, but I think that there's another project coming. I think there's a deluxe coming with a few more records on there. But I think this is the album going into February to the Super Bowl. I think I could see him performing a TV off, actually. I think the second half, a snippet of that will be. and the medley of the Kendrick song. Because TV off it when I mean it's, it kind of feels like they not like us a little bit.

It does. I mean, it's a mustard beer. Yeah. Yeah, it feels it has a little remnants of that. And then TV offers a Super Bowl halftime show. I can see that being kind of a cool little play. Wait until the think pieces the next day after the Super Bowl when mainstream media finds out what turns TV off means. Yeah.

Well, I mean, they gave them the spot with not like us. You know what that song is about? I don't take I don't think murder hooks and pedophile Yeah I don't think murder is live on state Yeah they love murder they sell murder all day That's true yes As long as he's talking about a black man

Yeah Nature media will love that that message Exactly Right before we recorded Kendrick dropped the Squabble Up video We watched it I don't know them all if you've seen The whole thing yet but

I'm Interested any thoughts on this He did some Umages like along the way I guess To a few artists All West Coast related obviously but yeah I mean

same when not like us we talked about what him and Dave been doing on the visual side has been great this is right up to part with everything we only watched it once because we were about to record but I fully enjoyed the first watch I thought it was dope this was one of the things they said in particular it was a to ice tea

this shot from the video also the menace of society stuff in there and I think he was just fucking around with people when they had the the magnet scrabble shit they used to put on your fridge it was like a bunch letters. I'm sure everyone is on stream right now as we're recording this, trying to

decipher what he had put on that board. That's a Soul Train board. Maybe they should do it on the show. No, I know, but what he actually put, like what he's trying to say. What the letters were? Yeah. There's a book. What message is that to Drake? The scene here, he's reading a book called How to Be More like Kendrick for Dummies

beside here. There's that flag that the conspiracy side of hip-hop Twitter is going wild about. Well, I mean, they kind of have a point what was the name of that Twitter account? Ebony Princess Ebony Prince something. If you remember during

the battle, that account seemed to be the only legitimate conspiracy account that had some facts. They had security footage from the hotel that had to do with one of the writers and Drake assaulting him or some weird shit. That account also had a video

of all the stuff that was in the... They said Drake assaulted a disabled guy in the wheelchair. Which is insane. And then he was like, no, he didn't. Monday, I don't know if we're going to do it on the, we can probably do it on Patreon, but we have to go back and revisit the shit that they were saying around that whole time. That was absolutely crazy. Oh, it was an insane month. It's like, yo, what are y'all talking about?

But also that account had actual footage of all those items that were in the, was it the 616 or Meet the Grams artwork? Meet the Meet the Graham's artwork. Which appeared to be from the balcony of that apartment that Kendrick had just bought in Brooklyn. Same view, same balcony shit. He put those flags in the video because the Abbey was. was that flag. So that's what everyone is now running with, that, you know, Kendrick was working with that person.

Isn't that just the Black Pride flag or something? Yeah, but, you know, everyone's going to tie it back to a rap beef and not anything else. But overall, I mean, GNX, it's a good album. And I mean, that goes what I was saying. Before the beef, we've won a record saying that we don't think Kendrick is capable of even making a bad album. I don't think he has a bad album in his discography.

I just don't know if this is the sound that people expect it. I don't know if this is the music that people expected. Going back to, you know, let the party die, that was the name of the song. Then he gives us an album full of hyphy, uptempo kind of bounce. Yeah, my only real critique here is what they put in the Apple Music bio for this album. When I read that before clicking play, I was almost like, you know what, I'm just going to go full OVO with more, man. Fuck this. They put in the Apple bio he killed the party because he's the only one that can resurrect it.

They changed it, by the way. That looks like how, like, remember how we, I had to write like something just to throw in there? I know. That's what it gives. But just leave it blank. Like, the updated one is. No, not only that, they should have really thought about it being that this is Kendrick Lamar, one of the biggest artists in the world right now. This is a very album that's going to have everyone's eyes and ears on it because coming off with the whole beef thing.

They should have put a little bit more thought into the caption. I mean, then they just changed it to like basically his bio. but before that it said he killed the party because he's the only one that can resurrect it. I feel like there's... So this is the new one? Yeah, it's really long. So let me read with Punch Root.

All right, so it says, if there were any remaining doubts as to hip hop's MVP, consider the decision stamped. Kendrick Lamar officially won 2024. Who's this officially? What is this? We need a... Come on, man.

Some of the polls are still open. There were whispers... It's a recount. Yeah, there were whispers that... Hanging Chad for Hard Part 6. Was working on an album in the wake of his feud with Drake. And once in a generation beef that kept jaws

dropped for month. I don't like that. Perhaps you've heard of a little song called Not Like Us. Never heard it. And immediate Like that's like the reaction that they've like, perhaps you've heard a little song. They should have put L.OL in parentheses. Like it's just so fucking who wrote. I'm on your side. This is okay. No, I just didn't know what that was.

An immediate entry into the canon of all time. An immediate entry into the canon. Don't just casually read it. It's not an immediate entry. That's kind of rapy. That's kind of rapy. You think I wrote this shit. The clip is full. Into the Canada of all-time great disc tracks. After a sold-out celebration at the...

Okay, so this is just a highlight real. After sold-out celebration at the Kear Forum, an armful of Grammy nods and streaming records, and the headlining slide at next year of Super Bowl, Lamar... Lamar... Lamar ties up his biggest year. First of all, there's only a headlining slot.

Yeah, that's it. There's no openers. Yeah, at all. Well, I guess the teams are the openers. The lions and the Eagles? Yeah, yeah. Lamar ties up his big... biggest year yet with a bow with his six album bow bow bow bow bow i don't know he tied it up with a bow

oh tied it ties up there you go like context clues damaris you went to syracuse university context clues no it's not the words it's not like me right now but isn't bow spelled the same same yes bow is spelled the same all right so my bad with a bow with his sixth album j next the most legitimately surprising surprise i don't like that i don't like surprising surprise i don't like that's legitimately surprising surprise drops since biontie in twenty two two in twenty two 2013. Name for his beloved classic Buet, G&X finds. Kendrick wielding a hatchet, he's by no means

ready to bury, still channeling this summer's cranked to 11 energy. Julia wrote this. On whacked out murals, he's riding around, listening to Anita Baker, plotting on several downfalls. It used to be fuck that nigger, but now it's plural. Fuck everybody, that's on my body. What's funny is a

white person definitely wrote this. Yes. There's a nod to his Super Bowl drama with Little Wayne, if you've been holding your breath, for Jack Antonoff to link with mustard. wait no more. The seemingly odd couple share. I don't. There was just a screenshot.

Okay. Well, also, Mustard only did two beats on this, right? Jack mixed every record, and I think as a co-producer on every single record. Mm-hmm. But, all right,

a couple things unpacked there, outside of it being hilarious. Is this the biggest surprise, surprise, surprise, since Beyonce? No. I don't even think this was a surprise. You could just, I mean,

off top, my, blonde. Blonde, yes. What the fuck are we talking about? Again, I don't want to make this more of a Kendrick and Drake thing. But Drake, if you're reading this, like, let's not pretend that that wasn't a fucking crazy surprise. But that got, didn't that get leaked when it came out? Before it came out, that got leaked. What?

If you're reading this got leaked, if I'm not mistaken. I thought the shit just dropped. Like, that was kind of the point of the title. Yeah. Maybe I haven't fucked up with Scorpion. I don't know, but. Scorpion had a lot of leaked. Scorpion leaked like crazy.

To the point. I was a running boss. And CLB, you had to make a whole new fucking album down there. Yeah. So yeah, get it, but that's kind of crazy to say since the Beyonce joint. Blonde, and if you're reading this, I felt like we're too huge surprises. Listen, man, the bottom line is all this energy feels good, though. I like this.

I like the battle. I like Kendrick just dropping, not, you know, giving nobody any inkling at it. He's putting it out today. Like, I like all of that. All of that is part of what this shit is about, man. Make music, drop music. I like that. A lot of producers this year, like, during the battle,

after went on podcast and did interviews telling us that Kendrick actually works really, really fast because myself included thought that Kendrick's one of those guys that makes one song every like two years and he just slowly puts together an album. They're saying no, he walks in the studio and knocks out like 15 records. He works extremely fast. With the success of Not Like Us, do you think all of these songs are Post Not Like Us? And he changed the exact sound to match more of the not like us hyphy type of shit. I think he had to. I think he couldn't

give us, which is undoubtedly his biggest record, would not like us. I don't think he could give us that and have people in that frequency and then go too far away from that on the next album. And what's funny is I thought he was going to do the complete opposite. Like when he did

let the party die, I was like, oh, Kendrick is probably going to go in the complete opposite direction of Not Like Us. This entire album is just an extension. of that sound. So that shocked me. Not that I'm mad at it, but it made me think

Kendrick, who typically does whatever the fuck he wants to do and doesn't really play into what he thinks the audience wants, I think leaned into his biggest record yet

and was like, I have to just continue this sound. It's working, which I would have never expected Kendrick to do. Yeah. I mean,

I think he went all away California on it, which is cool, which is dope. But this is a very Cali album, the sound, the lyrics, you know, the references in it, the artist that he collab with.

Which to me was the biggest highlight. I know it sounds crazy. I think I knew maybe one of these features, outside of Roddy Rich, of course. All of them were the high, like they all stepped up to me. Yeah. I think they're the best part of this entire project. They actually brought the beats back together. They sound more natural on this type of shit than Kendrick did.

I loved all the features on this. He kept the West Coast. It was obviously talks online before the Amazon show that he didn't, he never really put other people on from L.A. He didn't give him a look. And then he had the show, had some of them, you know, a lot of openers of that show. And then here comes the GNX album, put them on the features. Everybody was mad when the album first dropped because the names weren't in the titles yet. So nobody knew who the artists were.

And I think Sunday they dropped the, they dropped the tracks with all the ones. Do you think Kendrick did that because of all the talk after the thing at the key of forum, his victory lap? Everyone's like, all right, no one's going to hear from Kendrick again. All those artists were just used for Kendrick's victory lap. All those people on stage dancing, like, see if Kendrick doesn't have a different number by tomorrow. He's not giving y'all anything. Muster put out of his album, I don't think Kendrick was on it, right?

No. They were saying Kendrick, Muster gave you your biggest record ever. Now you're not even on his album. You didn't even tweet it. do you think he put all these people on this project to silence that or do you think he just wanted to work with these guys? It could be a little bit of both. I think it definitely, he definitely heard what people were saying as far as him not giving other artists from California any looks on his albums. Not saying that that was a big factor because he may have had plans of doing that before all of the beef thing and the show at the Kia Forum.

He may have had plans on doing that now that he has his own label, his own situation. with PG Lang. But I mean, it doesn't matter. I don't really care if he did or he didn't. He did. He put them on the album and they did their thing on their verses. It sounds good.

For me, some of the music is just not what I would go back to and replay. And I mean, I'm not going to put this on Top's jacket per se, but I always found that odd that people would criticize Kendrick for not putting on Younger X when he didn't own that label.

Like, Top is an incredible businessman. And if you see how TDE moves, they kind of only do features for each other. There's no, the only, like, young artist that's going to get a look on a TD album has to be signed to TD. So I don't know if, Kendrick may have went to Top throughout his career

and like, yo, I want to put this artist on. Which I was like, well, he's not signed to us, so fuck no, you're one of the biggest artists. You're not putting, like, your little homie on the shit. Like, even Keem, Keem has been around since damn. I mean, I know it's his cousin. He's been around his whole life,

but Keem was making music. I think they showed a photo him working with Kendrick around the damn time on production stuff. Keem couldn't get a look to the last album. Yeah. I just don't know if Top was allowing that type of shit if they didn't have paperwork on that artist. And West Coast politics to begin with are weird as is.

Is Kim on this album at all? No. No. Not even an ad look. So he heard that ball from Drake. He ain't like that. You should only slap when Keem put his pen to it. He told Kim, go take a vacation.

This is to the face, my nigga. He told Kim, yo, they think I can't make slaps without you. Go on vacation. No one thought that though. I mean, if Drake said it, he probably felt like Drake felt like that. So he's like, fuck that. No, I think Keem's probably just focused on his shit. We've talked about Keem in the past. We thought his first project was just okay, showed a lot of potential. But Keem has to be very particular, especially with all the energy surrounding Kendrick. He can't put a dud out. I think he got low purposely. Like, I don't want to pop out unless I feel my shit is ready to go. And one of his producers, I

think it was on three records on Kendrick's joint and said they're coming out next. So I think Keem probably didn't even want to be on this shit. He didn't look at him. No, I can understand. I can't. No, you can't. No, you think Keem didn't want to be on this album that's coming out post beef? No.

What I'm saying is this, I feel like sometimes artists can get overtaken by the pressure. I'm sure that there would have been a lot of pressure when it came to this, Keem being honest, especially with what Drake says. And it fuels that narrative. All right. After Mr. Moral, then they put out on, what's the Lucy that they were announcing? He was running in a conval or some shit. What, family ties?

Yeah, family ties. Then off his album, you can clearly hear the stuff that like Kenner. Which is a Grammy winning record, by the way. All that stuff, everyone is just connecting keen to Kendrick. Like, you have not stood on your own whatsoever. That narrative is a solid narrative within fans and people that are in the music. So back to what I said. So if now the next.

time we see you after you just did a whole tour for fucking three years around the entire world with Kendrick. You opened up every single video is just you and him running in circles on stage. Yes, I need to distance myself publicly from you for a second. Man, cut this shit, man. The first single

of Miss Marrow was with him. All the visuals are with him. Yeah, I need to get away from you. That's a better marketing thing for me to be a legitimate artist. So it's not, it's not, it has nothing to do with the gum and beef with things that I can't make a hit without you. I don't think that that. Because no one, No one heard that Drake Varden went in. It's like, yo, you know, it's too much time.

We've been together too much. No, Keem went, huh. That's what he's. Get the fuck out of here. I don't think that. I don't think that you're, I think you're giving Drake a little bit too much credit. I'm listening to what he said. And then what happened?

Keem is no way on us out. The only time that there's any writing credit of Keem's pen being put to anything is N95 on Mr. Morrell. I'm pretty sure Kendrick has put out some okay music before that. So that's why when Drake said, it only slacks when baby Keem, puts his pen to it was like, there's been 15 years of proof that that's not the case. Okay, but so back to my original statement, do you think that that line has anything to do with this? No. No. Okay. So, Ma, I did. They just been together too much on tour, working too much. I'm saying, no, no, see, that's what you said. You're doing that thing that's

when we are. I need a break. That's what you just said. I need a break. That's what you just said. I need a break. Okay. Can you not see the perception if I'm trying to be my own artist, my own, my own He was, he's been his own artist. According to you, he's been his own artist. He's talking about Keem. He's talking about him. I understand what you're talking about. I'm saying Keem would say, bro, leave me off this because my identity is becoming your

little cousin. Keem is not saying leave me off this album, dog. Cut the shit. Nobody is telling him. You didn't want to work with your brothers and everything because you said that you wanted to make it on your own and you never wanted to be attached. Yeah, but I didn't start working with them and then stopped working with them. I think there's still, I'm sure Keem had somewhat of a hand, especially when his personal

producer produced three records on this project and had never worked with Kendra before that. I'm sure Keem had some influence on this. I'm saying visually and his name being on these songs, maybe he's trying to start his own identity that is not Kendrick's low homie. Like he just wants to be separate. Okay. So Kim said leave me off this album. Maybe. Okay. Yeah, maybe. Show me an artist that would tell Kendrick, please leave me off your album. His cousin that knows that no matter what hell of access to him for the rest of the album. of his life and it doesn't matter.

And this next one, I want to stand on my own too. It's not a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him. Nobody said it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Nobody is telling Kendrick Lamar, hey, do me a favor. Leave me off your next album. Nobody, no artist is saying that. No artist on his planet is asking Kendrick to leave me off his album. Except for somebody that's won his baby cut, like his real cousin, not play cousins.

Like real cousin. Who cares? Is the first signy of PG-Lang was on fucking 10 songs of Mr. Moral, whether he was featured or not. There's a Keeam adlib on every fucking song. Keep going. Then his rollout was Kendrick. Keep going.

Then after that was family ties. Then after that, everything was you on tour with Kendrick. Maybe I want to stand on my own tool for the next year and a half. This is it. I'm sure that Keem and Kendrick both know that nobody wants to hear from them two together right now. Nobody wants to get back. I think that they're very much aware of that.

So I think it's like, yeah, no, we'll work together again later. He might be on the deluxe. Who knows? knows. But like, I don't think that that's, I don't think it was, well, Drake said, so we can't work together, guys, because Drake said that every time my shit hits, it's because of you, like, come on me, like, who. I don't think that that was a conversation at all. So y'all think that Keem said, leave me all for this. Keem said, leave me home. Yeah. Leave me home. I think that him and Kendrick probably made

that decision together. I'm not saying Keem went to Kendrick and said, his whole identity on Twitter, not that, like, Twitter really defines everything. We know that, but a lot of the perception, as of recent, Keem was that meme of my mom said you can't go unless you take me. Like that's what they were doing with his whole career. And I think that's unfair because I think he is a very talented artist that has potential. But I don't know his potential unless he's next to Kendrick. So maybe he just wants to step away.

And I'm with DeMaris. I don't know if it'll be a deluxe per se, but I do think we're going to get another project before the Super Bowl. Keen could be all over that shit for all I know. Maybe Keem didn't want to be on this evil heify shit. Maybe Kim just want to slide light. Maybe Keem's on Drake side. Maybe That was the OVO Mole the whole time

He hasn't said anything Maul are you gonna apologize To the room So he won't be at Thanksgiving Are you gonna apologize To the room mall For what? I know you're

Literally screaming at us That we were fucking retarded Because we said that there's a huge Chance that night Like us wouldn't be on the album Fuck out of here Fuck what a fuck Fuck out of here

Y'all dumb y'all You screamed at us For like a good fight You screamed at us Like a horn Kamasi All right my bad I hurt y'all feelings No.

We just wanted a apology. We walked back our shit. Okay. What if he, what if not like us is on the deluxe? That would be the sickest shit ever. I don't think that's happening. I don't think that that's happening.

Probably that as a bonus track. It's crazy. Masterhood. I love that. So you ain't going to apologize for being wrong? Did you not? No, you said I apologize if I hurt your feelings. That's not what we said.

That's not apology. I was wrong. You've been wrong. You've been wrong a lot. I've never had to be. I'll come out here all the time. I was wrong. I fucked up.

No, no, When was I wrong and I didn't And I didn't come out of apologize? Since you obviously got that in your head, when did that happen? You thought gas prices were going down, they're not. So let me start by saying this. I apologize, I was wrong.

Okay, there you go. No, no, no, fuck that. What were you saying? What was the given example? I literally just apologized recently when I said that I had that quote. I said whatever Martha Stewart said and I was wrong. I was like, oh, I was wrong. My bad.

I fucked up. No, but that's. No, you had a weird apology with that. That's different. You don't do that. I forgot what it was. You did say something. You didn't say that.

It wasn't that. I said, I fucked up. I said, my bad, I fucked up. We didn't roll a tape. We ain't wrote a tape. That ain't what you said. It wasn't like a real apology.

It wasn't no real. You said like the article misquoted or something. Yeah. She was like, oh shit, my bad. I fucked up. Well, listen, I apologize. So far it seems I'm wrong that not like us is not on the album.

A deluxe, I believe, is coming. It's happening. And you think not like us will be on a deluxe. I don't know. It's a chance. It's a chance it could be. And I don't think it'll be deluxe. I think we're going to get a whole new album.

Same. Kind of like how Meg just did her deluxe where it's technically a deluxe but it's a whole new album. Like a scary hour's two? Yeah, but I think it'll be another 11, 12 records. I don't think it'll be lower than 10.

No, I don't think it'll be like a... I think maybe 5, 6, 7. When do you all think it's coming January? Or right before the Super Bowl? Probably February. Well, Super Bowl's what? Second week of February? Yeah, so...

February 17? So second week. Third week, then, actually. That's late for the second. Yeah, it is. I think it's like the eighth or the ninth. It's usually like the sixth, the fifth. I mean, if only be at Google.

Sorry, my computer sucks. That was the ninth. Yeah. February. Yeah, end of January. Maybe a Grammy weekend. The ninth is also. Yeah, I can see Grammy weekend and then I'll have the image of what they say,

an armful of Grammys. Yeah. The Beyonce image. I could see him dropping something like that night of Grammys. After he leaves with all his Grammys, midnight we have a Kendrick Lamar album on Sunday night. Teeing up the transition here,

Drake announced he's doing an Australian tour starting on Super Bowl Sunday and he's going to be gone for, I believe, two months throughout that part of the world. Australia. Yeah. Australia. Drake's a billionaire, so I'm sure it's not as bad for him

because he can live like super comfortably. But I commend these artists, man. Just leaving for two months in Australia. like it's beautiful that's fire it's amazing yeah it's probably beautiful for like three weeks and then like you miss home you bring home with you bring home wherever you go man at that level you're bringing home no i'm saying i'm excluding drake from it because he's a billionaire and i'm sure it's much easier for him but there's there's artists that do like 2,000 tickets 500 tickets that do this same run that's gotta suck i mean or you just don't like home okay can't wait to get away

I think the first run is always great. Like, I even see it with EO now. They're on their, like, fourth international tour. I can see they hate it now. Oh, yeah. I mean, the grind definitely gets to you after a while. But, I mean, you know, you travel in the world and seeing people that support your careers and, you know, fans are yours.

I think that it gives you, it fuels you a little bit, too, to keep doing what you're doing. It's kind of like a reward that we love you. We love what you're doing. And thank you for coming to this part of the world because that's a whole. Australia for two months. That's the trip, bro. Now, I don't think Drake did this purposely because it was this. I don't think that's at all.

There was those leaked text messages where he himself said he's enslaved to this live nation contract for the rest of the year. Yeah, I'm sure he was forced to have to do this store. He continued his last tour way longer than it needs to be. He hasn't been Australia. I believe he said it was like eight, some odd year or something like that. Oh, yeah, okay. He's long overdue.

I don't think there's any connection with it starting on the day of the Super Bowl. I think he was going to go to Australia anyway. but before we get off Super Bowl and get to Drake streaming, I'm actually glad no one jumped in here to say did Kendrick diss little Wayne. That's what I hated the most over the weekend, watching that whole conspiracy have to happen on the timeline. What about that as a diss at all?

Like not even a tiny bit about it is a diss. Nothing? Which is why Wayne you should just relax? I agree. I didn't really. Wayne stays quiet. Why did you reply to that? Wayne probably, he probably didn't.

You know, because Wayne is so, he seems, well, he seems like, I don't know for sure. Wayne seems like he's very detached from what goes on on social media. Which I think he's admitted that his team comes to him with shit. Yeah, he probably just was fed that in a way where it could seem like it was negative. I'm sure that's a great thought. I didn't think of it that way. I would love for Wayne to hear that bar, which I'm sure he heard by now, and then post something saying like, oh, that's not. that's not a disc, that's not a shot, because that's definitely, that's definitely not a shot at Wayne.

And I, and I was kind of surprised to see Wayne go to social media and put the energy out, like, you know, leave me alone before there's war and heads decapitated or whatever he says. Yeah, he just keeps to himself, which I thought was back to gaslighting a bit. I've never seen Wayne outside of like his actual great lyrics where he's gaslighting women. But this was some gaslight and shit. You weren't chilling. you did a whole run complaining that you were not on a Super Bowl which is fine. I know that was your dream, it's your city.

I get that you could feel away if this has been one of your biggest goals. But don't say you were quiet because you weren't. He tweeted, man, what the fuck I do? That sounds like me. I just be chilling and they still come from my head. Let's not take kindness for weakness. Let this giant

sleep. I beg you all. No one really wants destruction. Not even me but I shall destroy if disturbed on me. I love. I love the on me part. I really love Loing. It's just, I really love them. It was unnecessary to really reply.

And then I didn't even like top going back and forth with it. Because he's just like an old man that's just like detached. He's still so sweet and just like, he's just a sweet old man. He's not that old. Wayne is 43. He's just a sweet old man. Wayne is Maul. Yeah, he's 43.

He's 43. He's not a sweet old man. Ma's a mean old man, but he's just so free. I'm mean? Sometimes. Who am I mean to? whoever I've been mean to. You were just mean to me.

Y'all like it was asked for an apology because you were yelling at us. And I apologized. No, no. First you said, first of all, you. It's like, oh my God. I didn't say it like that. See how you put the sauce on there? I never said, first of all, you, I never said that.

I said, first of all, you have not apologized. That's what I said. It was nothing mean. It was nothing mean about what I said. I'm not mean. I just think that this tweet from Wayne. I'm not mean. I'm not mean.

That's the name of the episode. I'm not mean. I'm not mean. Nobody has ever said your malls me. Who's never told you up a mean person? Don't say nobody has ever said that. Who said that? They say you bully me every single.

Go to our comment. Bully you? Go to YouTube. That's like the friendliest platform, too. Am I mean to you, Julia? Sometimes. I'm not, I don't have to take it personal. We don't need to have this conversation.

But when have I ever been mean to you? Give me an example of me being mean. I don't think anything on the mic should count, but that's just where I stand on this. Yeah, we're all mean to each other on this microphone. I don't think I'm mean to anybody on this microphone. Mean? Mean means, first of all.

We, for the past month, have been screaming at each other. That's still not mean. Some people would view it. I don't view it that way. We're doing a podcast. But some people would view like, wow, that was really mean to yell at him like that. Oh, those are pussies, though. I'm not talking about them.

I'm not talking about really mean. Like, I'm not a mean person. Somebody has never said, yo, yo, he's mean. Man, fan. What? Mean. Okay, let me find a guy. You were being mean to Kendrick throughout this entire beat.

Meen to Kendrick. Yeah. I've never even met that name. You were bullying him. Kendrick? Yeah. Man, get the fuck out of here with that shit. You were co-signing Drake's short jokes.

Those were mean. Yeah. I mean, I may have laughed, but that's not being mean. Like, I could laugh. You were next to the bully laughing. Yeah. That's the worst. It's a battle, though.

That's different. Once it's on, it's on. No, it went on. It was on. It's a battle. The rolls reversed pretty fucking quickly. Yeah, but we're supposed to be mean during the battle. Nobody's supposed to be friendly.

during the battle. Exactly. You're a pedophile. Hey, that was a great bar. Like, what? He was definitely the home girl that when the two girls is fighting. He was like, yeah, drag that bitch. Drag that bitch.

That was you. I'll do that because Tayrock encourages his opponent. First of all, don't ever say I'm two home girls that did anything. That's number one. Number two, I was not saying that. I was consuming the music. Consuming the music. I was consuming bars.

Listening the music. But then you went sensitive bully and drew the line where it's okay to say mean things to people in the battle until someone says pedophile. You don't play with that. No, no, nah, I don't know how simple that is. You don't play with that. You don't play with that.

You think that's cool to play with that word? No. All right then, exactly. We play with it all the time. No, we don't. You guys make fun of me being touched by a petophile all the time. What are you guys talking about? You make fun of that.

That's Roy's Lord. Yeah, but that's, I mean, that's my situation. That's my end word. Only I'm allowed to say it. But if you make it fun of it, I'm supposed to sit in and be like, yo, you shouldn't make fun of that? I don't know. I'm supposed to laugh with you.

Yeah, I've got to help my friend through his pain. That's all. Who is, man? By making fun of me about it. I'm laughing with you. Fair. I'm ad-libbing on your joke. That's all.

Well. But yeah, Wayne, sit down, man. That guy was certainly not like us. Wayne got to chill, man. I don't even want Wayne to even halfway. Sorry. Would you say? Nothing.

Nothing. Here's the line from Kendrick, by the way, that called Wayne to respond. I used to bump the car to three. I held my roly chain proud. I think my hard work let little Wayne down. I got the super ball in. I'm the only one to congratulate me. All these niggas agitated.

I'm just glad it's so on faces. That's, that's not disrespectful. All these niggas agitated. I'm just glad it's on their faces. How's that distrust? Okay, first of all, this is misleading and probably why Wayne got bad information. Because that line isn't about. This line is like nowhere near it. 18 or 20 bars after that first one. Oh, okay. I mean, but I, I could see, you know, got the Super Bowl and only one that congratulated me was

Nas and all these other dudes are agitated. I'm just glad it's on their faces. I get it. But even that's not a, that's not a, I think the first one was a genuine thought. Like, I worked this hard to get to a place where the Super Bowl would ask me to do half time. Like, that's a crazy accomplishment in my world. And then someone I looked up to, it's clearly hurting them. So yeah, I think it was a genuine like, like damn, I deserve this, but now it feels like it's weirdly in spite because someone that I idolized and if you listen to Kendrick Lamar, clearly he is influenced by low wayne no one would debate that

yeah now this guy is sad that he can't have in his city and I'm the one they picked yeah but even in that I don't think that there's I don't think throughout that whole moment when it was first announced that Kendrick was doing this little I don't remember Wayne ever saying

anything like to spite Kendrick or to be like I think he was just saying that he was heartbroken that he didn't get it but it all right but it also like not to say it's step on Kendrick's moment because it was just kind of one pocket of the internet that was really super outrage that Wayne didn't get it. But the hip hop community was loves little Wayne. So it did kind of, hold on, hold on, slow that. Before you think that's where I think he was going with the

the only people that congratulated me was Nause. Like, damn, I thought that was a big moment for hip hop for me, Kendrick Lamar, to get this. And now it's being stepped on because Wayne deserves it. And like now they're questioning, I only got it because of not like us. And I could see him feeling a way about that. Cool and great. But what I'm saying... Mean. That was fucking mean. How is that mean?

What I'm saying is I never heard Wayne say Kendrick didn't deserve that. I never heard him say that. But it stepped on his moment when he was talking about him. I mean, if he's expressing him being

feeling away because he wasn't cool, then he got that right to feel that way. I agree. But he didn't say, yo, y'all should have gave it to me over Kendrick. it would have been any whoever would have gotten it over Wayne Wayne would have felt the way of it I know but either way let's go with what's tangible like what no matter what he's saying I should have gotten it over Kendrick Lamar

yeah but he's no he's really saying I should have got it over anybody yeah but it was Kendrick but he's not saying fuck Kendrick he you know I want that over him like he didn't say that he was just like oh I'm I'm hurt you know I wanted it or something that I want it but you know whatever I think it's multiplied by the fact of who little Wayne is connected to And the moment that all of this is happening. And I think that's why it looks like it's more of a shot. But that's why I'm saying anybody that would have got that Super Bowl slot, Wayne would have felt the way about it because it wasn't him.

But naturally, like you said, because of the affiliation, Drake is his man, his artist. He's the one that gave Drake, you know, his opportunity to become the superstar that he is. All of that, we got to factor in cool. But Wayne didn't dis dis Kendrick. He didn't say, yo, fuck Kendrick. That belongs to me. that should have been me.

Anybody that would have got it. Now, Kendrick responded saying nobody congratulating me outside of Nas. I don't think that's a Wayne diss though because I don't think... It's not a Wayne diss. I don't think Kendrick dissed Wayne at all in any of this. I don't think he dissed Wayne. I don't think this was a diss which is why I don't think Wayne should have posted what he posted because it's like, bro, that wasn't... That wasn't...

If you feel like that's a diss, then I'm with Shaw, then I, you dissed Kendrick. What's heartbreaking, though, is, you know, to what Demeris was just saying. if this situation didn't happen, we could have had Wayne come out with Kendrick. That would have been a great fucking moment in New Orleans. And it probably would have happened, too. You don't think that would have happened? Kendrick bringing Wayne up?

No. If the beef never happens, why is that a problem? Oh, if the beef never happens. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I still think, yes, do I think not like us definitely helped in Jay-Z's decision of going, hey, we should have Kendrick this year? He's on fire.

I get it. But Kendrick would still deserve the Super Bowl regardless. So I think there's a world where Kendrick still gets offered the Super Bowl in New Orleans, and we would have had that moment where Wayne could have came out with Kendrick in New Orleans. I think that would have been great. But no, obviously now, Little Wayne would not be coming out at the Super Bowl. Not a chance. No, that would not happen.

Breaking news has just came across our podcasting desk. Drake accuses UMG and Spotify of a scheme to artificially inflate Kendrick Lamar's not like us. We go to Mall with more breaking news, who we understand filed these charges right before recording today. Some good tea right here. Okay, so this is all happening while we're recording,

so bear with us. We're catching up with it as well. There's a legal petition, so not an actual filing. They're not being sued yet. It's a petition going through the proper channels. Yeah. The Bronx. Drake's company accuses UMG and Spotify of serious wrongdoing in a stunning

twists months after his high profile. I don't care about that part. Drake has initiated legal action against Universal Music Group and Spotify over allegations that the two companies conspired to artificially inflate not like us. In a filing Monday, November 25th,

in a Manhattan court, Drake's frozen moments, which we saw constantly this year. Now I see what they. They've been a legal team the whole time. This wasn't distro. It's just a team of lawyers. Team of them. Said UMG has put out an illegal scheme involving bots, payola,

and other methods to pump up Lamar's song. So where I'm confused before we get to the rest of this article, are you allowed to sue someone for inflating a song that isn't yours? Are you allowed to sue someone for marketing? Because that's where it's a little odd. But as we continue on with this article, the only point I can see, because obviously I'm a legal expert, they have manipulated Siri

to deflect people when they asked Siri hey can you play Drake it would play Kendrick not like us that's kind of the only point I can see because according to Billboard they are accusing UMG of the RICO stature often use criminal cases and organized crime

how is this a RICO I just want to hear music man I don't know what's happening right now I just want to hear raps Um, okay, I guess I can see Drake's point. Let's start with outside of the legal shit. Somebody suing during a rap battle, I think that means you definitely lost. Like, you lose.

This is, this is, this is it. We thought, we thought Kendrick's album, the Not Like Us video, all that shit was the final nail in the coffin. This is the final nail in the coffin. If you sue during a rap battle where no one was even harmed, Yeah, you lost. That would be different if he was suing Kendrick. He's not suing Kendrick. See, that's what I'm saying.

Y'all so quick to jump to that. Look at what he. He's saying that they're saying, yo, people wanted to hear Drake's music and they were directing them to not like us. You don't think an artist has to write for it. Okay. So what happens when murder mooks sues smack over a battle? Like, no, bro.

Why do you keep going to a battle, bro? I'm just talking about if people are asking Siri to play your album and they're directing it to another artist. Battle or not. No, I get it. That's an issue. I'm losing money. That's an issue.

I totally do understand that. I just think it's an interesting case. And jokes aside, I am very excited to see where this goes. Because it might benefit a lot of artists. This could open the fucking floodgates when it comes to streaming farms, fake streams,

how they marketed shit, how they manipulate the stream, how they manipulate playlisting. Exactly. There you go. Speak to that. I'm fucking around. You know I'm happy about this.

I know you are. You got an album coming. And they won't let me manipulate. Exactly. I have organic sales. It sucks. Exactly. Oh, we got to talk about that on Patreon, too.

Oh, yeah. See? You all mean an apology. All of you do. What? Because my organic, never mind. We'll talk about it on Patreon. Just know, I sell just as much as y'all favorite that you think is great.

I mean, why are you looking like I don't get, I know, I know the game. You guys called me wood, aluminum. Every last thing my album did, but my album did organic. But my album did organic organic sales the same as your favorite that's on your major. Either way.

Let's get back to this. And I feel like I said, yo, play Rory one time and they played some whole other shit. Masego. So we might have a case. They play games.

So we have to sue Masego. Yeah, we got a case, man. We got a case. The only thing that's legitimate outside of what Rory

said about the Siri part of this alleged lawsuit is the last filing here on our notes is UMG allegedly fired anybody who was loyal to Drake. Curious to see how that is proven and see how that carries through.

Let's not act like that's not a typical lawsuit within companies where people are fired for reasons they shouldn't be fired for having allegiance to certain people in companies. They've been fired. That's not, that's a valid point in my opinion. I'm sure that happened

and I'm sure that's you can prove that. That's a typical case within a corporation. But every other filing on here is just typical label shit. Honestly, the things that I'm looking at here, like this is every, single label. This is how you promote a song. This is how you make moments.

They did like none of this, to me at least, is foul play. Well, the Spotify got compensation from UMG for recommended not like us and didn't disclose it because you are supposed to disclose that. Right now, baby, do you go ahead? That you got compensation. You got paid to advertise this song. I mean, but like that, do

you need to explicitly say that? All these labels, they're all in bed with each other. Yeah. That's weird to just say this one song. No, like all of UMG was pumping money into Spotify and vice versa. That's not like, why would they just feel the need to just call out one record one over the course of the entire calendar year? That's what they've been doing. Y'all missing the biggest part about this to me is UMG doesn't want to engage with Drake and they're telling

him to sue Lamar instead. That's crazy to me. That's label shit too though. But that's what I'm saying. But kids have got nothing to do with that. But we don't know between P.G. And we know that he signed a distribution deal with UMG. Yeah. So maybe UMG is suggesting that everything they're accusing UMG of was actually from PG-Lang and it wasn't from us. We didn't do this manipulation. That came from your independent company. We just did distro. We didn't put a budget behind this.

We weren't the ones that did everything you're accusing us of. That was Kendrick's company. PG-Lang ain't got the money to pay. Kendrick's independent once this all happened. We don't have the money to pay Siri to play Kendrick when she should be playing Drake. I don't think that's UMG money. That ain't PG-Lang money. not disagreeing with you whatsoever.

But I think a lot of the Spotify stuff that they were accused of could be a direct Kendrick conversation with Spotify. I don't think that has to be UMG. But to that point, I've said for years on here when I was working at Sony and Spotify went public, they emailed me and said I couldn't buy stock. It'd be insider trading. So I think this should expose that the labels have percentage of the DSPs.

It's unfair to begin with. Yeah. Of course Spotify got. compensation from UMG from Not Like Us. Yeah. UMG at one point owned 25% of Spotify. So Drake has a case here, and I think he's the only artist that's able to do this outside of maybe a Taylor and artists that don't need streams to be manipulated. It would behoove them not to manipulate Drake's streams because they need to have more

credence for offering, like I need more fucking money, guys. I keep this whole shit moving. I keep the lights on here. he's the only artist that could say fuck fuck y'all let's let's look into this who's been manipulating streams all this shit doesn't make sense isn't this odd because isn't drake's deal with UMG as well but yeah they're cold they're cold people co people so that's my thing is like he's he's suing but he clearly has had a very odd relationship with them for sure for quite some time not even just post beef but we know for a fact it was crazy after post beef

because of the 100 gigs thing. Not to say y'all laugh me out of the room, but I said this is insane that he's purposely doing this without them. Yeah. To prove a point to them. There's no way UMG is not upset that he's taking all this footage that is him recording songs that they own, and they're not upset about it.

This has been a battle for a while, and I'm curious to see where it lands. Drake has a lot of money, but like you said, UMG lawyers is a little different. Yeah. You could be a billionaire and still not take down UMG. And not even just the money of their relationships as well that they have. I mean, again, Drake's one of the only artists where that won't matter.

Like, Drake will be fine. Of course he'll be fine, but I don't know if he's going to win his lawsuit if he does officially file. I mean, I think it's interesting. I just think it's... Is it officially filed as a lawsuit or... No, it's just a petition right now. Yeah, we don't know what it is. But let's speculate.

I think this could be an example that's brought up if it goes the way I think it's going to go that's brought up for decades on Aubrey Graham versus UMG will be brought up in plenty of fucking lawsuits when it comes to labels and artists this could be a monumental decision

and not just because of Kendrick and Drake I'm not saying that at all but being able to manipulate stream songs how we get our music yes this could be monumental or it could get buried and we'll never talk about it again. Oh, it won't.

It's not going to get buried. But I do agree with you that it's, it's a monumental thing. I just think that it's, you know, this news just dropping is a little too fresh for us to really understand exactly what's happening. But I think it's interesting. I think that we saw some things during that whole back and forth while. Yes, it was a battle. But I think the artist and their business, you know, that's what they were paying attention

to. Like, okay, this is affecting businesses. Like, this is something going on behind the scenes where they're now trying to. to manipulate the business of this thing. Forget the music. The business is a little some funny shit going on. Yeah.

And I think this is just their way of kind of, you know, calling attention to it, things that's going on because I think that, you know, they can do it with one artist, who else are they doing it with and doing it for? So, I mean, you know, just got to wait and see where it goes.

And I think, you know, it'll show, I think Kendrick's sales are incredible what he's projected to do. But you'll see a drastic difference between what the sales were with one single versus what they were for an album. You could, of course, add in the no-rollout thing.

There's so many factors. The song not being on the album. I just said so many factors, so I don't want to make it specifically that. But not like us was a different monster, numbers-wise. Like it was in our faces no matter what, whether we liked it or not.

It was at the top of every playlist. anytime which I came in here reluctantly because I knew it would make you happy I'd be on Spotify and if an album ended I'd be on my R&B shit the next song would be not like us like it wasn't like I was in some rap

algorithm like let's go with the most popular song I'd be listening to jazz and then that album would end and then Spotify does what Spotify does it just puts you into something else you continue to listen to music be not like us every time Yeah. Every time.

Here's an interesting line from the filing. UMG launched a campaign to manipulate and saturated streaming services and airways with the song, Not Like Us, in order to make the song go viral, including bots, pay, blah, blah, blah. The filing states claiming UMG charged Spotify 30% less than the usual licensing rates in exchange for Spotify pushing recommendations for Not Like Us to, quote, users who were searching for other unrelated songs and artists. So right to Rory's point. So, okay. you should be able to sue.

That's ridiculous. I just don't know if Drake legal, because I don't understand legal jargon the best way. Does that mean Drake would be the one to sue? Because that should be illegal. That should, that's like legitimately insider trading. He's not suing though. His team is? His filing a petition.

Yeah. But that's not the same is. That's not suing for compensation. But to Rory's point, like, because this could theoretically be a class action lawsuit. Yeah. Where would those payouts go to? Because in this instance, yes, Drake was the biggest victim of this supposed scheme, the game of Spotify and not like us were running behind the scenes.

That being said, it affects every artist that's on Spotify. That's what I'm saying. So is this an artist thing where Drake can start this petition where every artist that is on UMG didn't have fair rights to their music with their partner, even if it was distribution or actually signed to UMG, am I now allowed to sue the company I'm partnered with because clearly this is unfair practice right here. Yeah, I mean, I think that that's possible because...

Good for Drake, man. I know he's going to get killed for this because it's rat battle shit and you're not, you pussy, if you sue or anything like that. He's going to look nuts here, but this is really important what he's doing. Yeah. This is really, really important. Because if there has to be a number one, So if I'm supposed to be number one and you're in my spot, you're now, if somebody's searching for me, that's one less stream.

Like, even if it is pennies on a dollar when it happens millions of times, like, you take the money out my pocket. You take money out of other artist's pockets. And now this kind of goes back to when we always used to say years and years ago, what is a stream? We don't know what that is and what that equals. And then they try to explain it to us. One stream is worth 0.000,001, whatever. Okay. But we have an issue with that because.

you guys are now setting the standard of what I should be paid out for my music with a company that you're in bed with. This would never work in any other industry. You're setting the price of what we should be paid. You can't do that. That's not how America works. Now you're able to lower that 30%

for one artist and no one else. So I was already getting fucked because you set the price on my music. And now the compensation is 30% less. that'll be our agreement if you can keep pushing this. Right. So now the payment that you said already that's unfair is even different and only changed for one artist.

Fuck you. Yeah. I'm suing. Yeah. Makes sense. That's insane. That lowering for 30% is insane. And I'm not going to lie. I doubt that Kendrick is the first artist that they did this with. I just think that Drake is the first one to bring attention to it because of the Kendrick thing and because the battle was so big and people were tweeting about it and talk about it. But I'm sure this flies under the radar all the time. I wouldn't be surprised

of some of our biggest streamer artists had this same deal. Oh, for sure. And that's what I'm saying, only Drake would be in the position to do this because he doesn't need them to manipulate anything to get his streams. I can tell you wholeheartedly, a lot of the numbers you see are not real, especially on you as someone that used to

pay for those numbers. That's what? That shit is not real. I love the old saying, men lie, women lie, numbers don't. Numbers fucking lie. All the time. Money can make anybody lie. Yeah. So yeah, we'll keep our eyes on this.

I'm excited to see how this plays out because this is really, really big. This is really big. Yeah. This was like that Nikki and a Hot 97 lawsuit that never ended up going through that I wanted to go through. But we shall see with this. And I mean. Stay tuned because we're going to be here giving y'all all the tea. Y'all know we've written up on it.

From Billboard. Listen, somebody's going to read. Who's also in cahoots. I don't care too much to talk about this, Drake. stream. I think people blew it a little bit out of proportion. But yeah, I mean, I guess he looks crazy. I don't know. I didn't see any of this. I don't know what this stream is. What's he smoking? I don't know who Q. What's the name? QXC. Yeah. So this streamer that he was on is signed with. Again, obviously he did this because it's a contractual thing. This is a kick streamer. I guess steak owns kick or whatever that relationship is. Okay. The gambling. So they went on there and they played like all their virtual roulette, whatever the fuck they play. Okay. But in the process, this streamer who clearly doesn't know much about music, which is like playing records.

He just ended up playing shuffle and a weekend song came on and Drake goes, you've got to switch this. We're real sixers. Like, we don't play that like, none, whatever he says. And then it's just like the thing that makes it bad, which to the, yeah, to make Drake look crazy, so to speak, is like you keep putting yourself further and further in this echo chamber where you pretend you're unbothered. And then you do things like this. And every little thing that comes up that might be related to the B for like has a tangible relation. He does these things publicly where he's like, fuck that or like, I don't play that. But you could hold on, hold on a little bit. See, that's one thing I don't like.

You could be unbothered. But if I don't fuck with somebody an artist and I'm sitting here with you and his music come, I'm going to tell you to, I'm not bothered. I just, yo, he's not getting no play. I know how many people are watching this stream right now. But it just looks worse. That's all I'm saying. Clearly, I'm not fucking with these dudes. just does how does it look worse?

You think I'm supposed to sit here and, and like, yo, turn that up. That's my jab? Okay. I'm not fucking with these dude. It got tied into also his introduction before any music was played

when he sat down with this guy. He said, oh, I should probably introduce myself. My name is Drake. I make music. Clearly you can see I'm still intact. My body, my mind, my spirit. Only facts can take me down. Like he clearly was talking about this year.

Yeah. So after that, he started, you know, when music was played, I'm with you. If I don't fuck with someone, turn that shit off. I don't want to hear that. I was just saying.

But he started it out. Like his introduction had to do with something that had to do with the beef. Here it is. I'm Drake. This is XQC. Real streaming legend. Me, I do music in case you didn't know. I'm here.

As you can see, fully intact. Mind, body, and soul. In case you are wondering. Right? Mind body and soul. Mind body and soul. You need facts to take me out. Fairy tales won't do it.

Cheers to everybody. Words to live by. Words to live by. Real talk. Cheers to everybody. Love. that does give bother because like who's even think about that like nobody's think about that

that's on your mind I wish you would have rap that not the mind body and soul shit but only facts can take me out not fairy tales that's a bar and I wish you would have wrapped it it looks kind of crazy when you're next to somebody that knows nothing about what's going on. Yeah but child would have said the same thing if he put that ball on the song I would like that bar he's bothered he's I want Drake no matter what he do I'm the one that keeps saying I want Drake to

continue to rap about this. No I understand it but no matter what he says what he does people are going to say he's bothered oh for sure he's affected by it. The star power is gone. He doesn't sit with anybody from the culture. It's like, bro, what are these are, this is things he would have been doing. Even if the beef never happened, he would have been probably sitting with this dude

because he has business with state. People have been saying that he hasn't sat with people with the culture. That was a complaint before the beef is that he doesn't. But he sat with people in the culture. Kendrick don't sit. Kendrick don't sit with nobody. He sat with scissors.

She's of the culture. I mean, but you could say that about Conan Nass. I mean, the last time, You can say that about a bunch of people is my point. That's my point. But that was like 10 years ago. That's my point.

You could say that about a bunch of big artists. But the difference is, and this is not my critique of Drake because I don't give a fuck. But what people are saying is that Drake sits with a bunch of people. He just doesn't sit with people of the culture. The other ones that you named don't sit with nobody. That's the point I was going to get to. These guys don't sit with anyone at all. Yeah.

Drake sits with a lot of people. That's where the critique comes from. I will say, I mean, I know he had to do this for some contract shit. Who from the culture has he not sat with that people want to see him sit with? Us. You. All right, but then stop saying that. Don't even put, don't name this platform at all.

Who? He sat with Elliot Wilson a couple times. Had Elliot Wilson and BDOT in his home. Yeah. He sat, he was on the shot with LeBron and everybody else that's from the culture. Like, who else do people want to see him sit with? Like, this is just shit that people. It's been more so this year with everything that's been going on because he was with what, Aiden

Ross, I have that correct? He was with a few other streamers. Him and Aiden their clothes. So during the beef, y'all want to have. The bobby shit. Okay, so during the beef, they want him to sit with, who do they want him to sit with during the beef? Don't say this platform. Shannon.

Sorry. So he didn't go on club, Shay, Shee, so he's not of the culture. Drink champs, probably people would like. So he doesn't go on drink champs so he's not of the culture. I don't know if I'd want it. I want to drink champs Drake episode, but not mid-beef. Yeah, no. So this is my thing.

Like, you know, we just got to stop just saying things to say things, man. For the record, I don't agree with that critique. Oh, yeah. We're also not sitting in saying we agree with it. critiques are. But that's what, and we're speaking to the people. Yeah.

Cut the shit. He sat with people from the culture. He's done that. I just think, and I get it, the contract that it, but I think he could have done this

without doing this. You know what I mean? Like, do the thing for failure your contractual obligation. This guy clearly has no idea what's going on in the music world. He,

like at one point, he's just playing song. The guy said, Drake says, can you play young Doug? The guy plays a future song. Like, he doesn't know anything. And again,

I'm not on the side. Even like when Elliot had called Drake out before and Drake had said that hilarious response like you're doing yes, Jules run-up interviews at Rolling Loud and you say what you hilarious reply. Yay, pieced him up. That's a really good. The music nerd and like real hip-hop guy in me

hates these moments when Aiden Ross is like the one that gets in exclusive on a record to put out and like this guy knows nothing about music. It's like a mockery of hip-hop to me. And with this guy I don't know anything about him. Apparently he's a legend.

I don't know. He looks like Elsa from I don't think anyone should talk music. Was he on there talking about music? They were playing music and going through records. But I don't know. I didn't see the street. Well, they were on there to gamble, basically. And then like, obviously with Drake's musician on,

the guy's like, Drake's like, hey, I'll play some music. And the guy started playing music. And then, like, three of the songs that came up because he was just playing shuffle or popular music were like people that he actively is beef with. And then, and then when Drake made a request, he ended up playing a future song.

And then he played like a Steve Lacey song. And he was like, that's a free, what he called him, family op or something like that. A fragile app, which was hilarious. He called him a what? A fragile op. A fragile op. He called Steve Lacey a fragile op. Which Steve Lacey posted on his Twitter with laughing emojis. I think Steve Lacey probably found that very funny. I don't think so again, he's playing music. This guy's no clue what the situation is with Drake right now. This guy's like a fragile op, but he's like, oh, a fragile op is the funny.

shit. I got a couple of fragile. Oh, there's definitely some fragile ops. Fragile op is fucking hilarious. So then Lacey, yeah, to Rory's point, made full, he capitalized on it immediately. I mean, this is hilarious. I don't think Steve Lacey was offended by that at all. I really think he was just laughing.

Fragile op is fucking hilarious. Who trying to be my fragile? Fragile op is fucking hilarious. That is funny. And I understand what he means, but. But I totally can see someone tearing apart my argument of hating this stuff. This is really just my internal music nerd shit that hates seeing this stuff. I understand I'm old and don't understand it and I'll be left behind because I don't know all the white streamer kids that don't fuck with hip hop and that's who I should like.

I just don't like these moments. Yeah, this kid's a professional overwatch streamer. It's just, it's. He's also Canadians from Quebec. It's no logic. It's all emotion and anger when I see certain people have access. to the music world like this that do not care about it whatsoever.

It just bothers me. Yeah, but this was not about... Like, Aidan Ross, I can respect Aidan Ross and what he's built on his platform and totally understand his own personal genius and what he does.

I don't think he should ever have a single bit of access to anything that has to do with music. Cool, but this wasn't about music. This was about steak and the gambling app. So why people have said about this? Because maybe I don't view Drake as a professional poker player.

view him as one of the greatest artists that we have of our generation. He's supposed to be talking about music. No. But they started talking about music. He's supposed to be sitting with somebody from the culture. Talk about blackjack, bro. I don't want to hear this shit. So let me get this straight.

You can kill my argument. It's anger. It's not logic. I'm just trying to ask you because there's people that feel like you. So I just want to know. So anytime Drake sits on Michael camera, he has to be talking about music. No.

Or he has to be sitting with somebody from the culture. Absolutely not. Okay. That's all I don't understand what people were so mad about. I just don't understand what people were so mad about. I just don't want. any music talk with someone that thinks future is young thug. Okay.

I respect. No, I don't think Aidan Ross, if this is going to sound like hate and shit, I promise you it was actually not hate. I don't think Aidan Ross should ever, ever have the ability to leak or put out a record before anyone else. I don't think he should have the drop. I don't think, as much as we critique Flex, I don't think Aiden Ross and Flex should have the same access.

I just don't. So you don't think, you don't think Kai should have the same access? I think Kai should. because he's black. No. Why? Kai clearly has some connection with music. What is his connection with music?

Have you never watched his streams? He gives actual real critiques on music. All the time. That's constantly what he does. Yeah, Kai does that. I know he loves hip-hop. For sure. And I love that he is a perfect balance

of not having to be the negative critic and can just bring love and laughter into his platform, but still be on his stream when everything drops, given real reactions of someone that actually cares about it. I don't think Aiden Ross gives a single fuck about anything that has to do with hip hop

unless it brings him numbers. I think Kai would listen to his music whether he was streaming or not. I think Aiden is taking advantage of a lot of that shit and inserting himself in rap beefs and gun violence and then saying, yo, I told you I'm a civilian. I'm pussy. This is my security, but, you know, he'll pull up on you. Like, come on.

Corny. Makes sense. Grinch of the nerd. We live in the time of revenge of the fucking nerds. And anything else they do, I'm not hating in that regard. This is just my anger, emotional music nerd self. I think Aiden serves a purpose in the world. He's richer.

He's cooler. I understand. But when it comes to music, I just don't think we should give these people access to that shit. Well, said. I'm mad at that. Okay. Well, speaking of...

Getting revenge back and taking your power back, the white people blackballed Shibuzi at the CMAs. He did not want. win a single award this year. Even though he obviously, like Demaris has said it repeatedly on this platform, has had the biggest song of the year by a landslot. He just tied Lil Nasex's

billboard chart run. And that's without Miley Cyrus' deck. Yes, without Billy Ray. Did, um, the Little Nazex win a CMA? Oof. I don't know. Was he even nominated? I don't think he was nominated. Oh, yeah. When the Billy, when he got the white co-signed, they were like, oh, I guess.

Yeah. Once, once Miley made that connection in A&R, that shit, He was accepted by the whites for a little while until they realized he was gay. Yeah, that's true. That's not a good look for them. Okay. But yeah, Shabuzi was shut out. And then there was like kind of a bit of a shade thrown at him in the acceptance speech of Chris Stapleton.

So they shut him out and through shape? So at the acceptance speech, they said, um, okay, I misspoke. It wasn't Chris Tableton. Then they made the comment. It was a producer, Cody Johnson after accepting this award. here's the reply that got the internet in an uproar. It takes an army of people to make a great record, but I got to tell you, this is for this cowboy who's been kicking Shibuzi

for a lot of years, y'all, Cody Johnson. It takes some. All right. I see where he was trying to take it. Was Shibuzi nominated in this category? Yeah, Song of the Year, whatever it was. Okay, then I can see why people were offended by that. If he was just saying he's been trying to kick butt,

for a lot of years, cool, but if Shibuzi's in the category and you just beat him, he knew what he was doing. It's a shitty double-on-dun- Now, I'm not going to say, I'm not going to say he was trying to shit on Shibuzi,

but he knew to play on words. Like, he's been kicking Shibuzi for, like, but, you know, I'm not going to say that he was like, yeah, fuck Shibuzzi. I'm not saying that was the energy. No, but Shibuzzi wasn't in that category. I'd be like, all right,

he was just trying to be funny. Yeah. But, nah, not if I'm in that category. Now I might storm the fucking stage. Kick who? ain't everybody But Shibuzi is a word that they use in like country Right isn't that a word

Yeah but come on That's not the first time I heard Shibuzi That's not the first time since when this song came out I've definitely heard Shibuzi before Even if you add Like that's still the number one song of the year And you're at the country music awards And I'm in the category

And I lost No no no you're right I'm gonna keep your Shibuzi I'm not mad at that you're absolutely right I'm just saying that word is not That's not a word That's not a word Shabuia roll call

That's not what I'm thinking about I promise you. My name, baby, D. It's not what I'm thinking about. I promise you. That guy looks like he says caboose, not Shibuzi. He should have said caboose. That guy definitely says kicking caboose.

Shibuzzi replied? Get kicked in your caboose. He did reply and said, ain't nobody kicking me or something like that. Trying to find it. But, yeah, he had a few things. He just tweeted this 55 seconds ago. They tried to bury us.

They didn't know we were seeds. You didn't even peep to seize, maul. Y'all are hating. Beyonce didn't show up, I assume. Beyonce? Beyonce? They're good. Beyonce ain't going.

No, Beyonce ain't leaving her house, but enough. I'm joking. But she wasn't nominated at all, right? No. I know we had talked about this. Oh, yeah, she got shut out. That's right. They're tired of, I can't, P. You say the word no more, but they're tired of y'all.

They tired. Oh, who? Black folk. She says it with the hard. With the hard, ER and YouTube be about to demonetize this. Blacker? No. No, she, the past few episodes

has been using the hard ER on the N-word And it's affecting our sales Baby Deven going to a little crazy I didn't notice that They were mad at the way she was talking to Julian They was like damn, why she's talking to Julian like that? When? Because I called him an idiot

Like you fucking idiot That was me She slapped me too See what I'm saying? Slap them one We gotta get to the real mean bean In this game Yeah, the real mean bean in the pot

The mean bean cassero She's the mean bean Castle Rock. You know, their work husband and wife. Exactly. I think at the top of the year they were going through their honeymoon phase.

I would be like, hey, they need some help. Top of the year was the honeymoon phase and I think they're really starting get to know each other. Now that I think about it, and divorces is upon us.

I think Baby Dee framing this narrative that were work husband and wife just then gave her permission to disrespect me because that's my husband. Oh, so husbands are supposed to get disrespect. I can punch him. That's my man.

Yeah. I just think the honeymoon. Fas is over and it's ordinary No, fuck that I'm cutting you off That's what a toxic relationship is

She said I bring him food Rory How many times She came in here She said I made the best fill in the blank You were supposed

to bring us Rastapasta And I didn't happen Okay but I also When I bring food And I immediately Give Julian food That doesn't happen

That doesn't happen I don't bring cupcakes In for your birthday You just happen to have cupcakes No I bought cupcakes You didn't make cupcakes You can make cupcakes But that's not

But that doesn't change the problem That's like if he cheat on you And then buy you a Chanel bag Mm-hmm Which I have I don't think you're looking at the actual factor in this entire thing. I forgot old boy's name that didn't work out, but then we went to Rel. Throughout that entire time, they were a happy couple.

And then Peaches showed up and put them in turmoil. He's been whispering bullshit. I watched them Kiki with each other because I have the perfect angle of Peage in Damaris. They be whispering to each other all fucking episode. Okay, so they're not going to understand if that was the case. They're not going to understand if Julian was talking to Demaris crazy because he's a little jealous. But Damaris is flirting in front of her work husband

and still talking to her work husband like he's the one flirting with somebody else. But you don't know the flash shit Pige get off in her ear like, yo, you really with that? Like I think she has... I think he is feeding her information that has her looking at Julian a little different. She feels like she can disrespect him now.

Peach tells me little jokes. Like if y'all ever heard me just giggling and y'all be talking about serious shit it's because Pige is like telling me little jokes. It's kind of how like George Bush hands Michelle Obama candy every time he sees it. It's Completely innocent. Listen, Julian, I know you don't know about too many black movies, but I'm going to give you one of the greatest lines,

one of the greatest black movies ever. Mm. Yo, what the fuck? Beep. And we're back. And we are back. We had some technical difficulties. What movie is that from?

Mall was about to say a line, but we've moved on. That's the color purple. Well, no, no, don't add context. Don't add context. No, leave that. That's funny. Oh, man. Pige is going to make fun of that.

Also, Pige be telling her when her titty's popping out. Like, there's a whole thing going on over here. Pete stares at her tities on the monitor all the time. For sure. Her tities pop out. Pige is the one that has them on camera. And it has to edit it. It has to edit it.

Yeah. We never see it, but Pige has all the files. And these cameras can be on us, but that one right there. Hmm. I get it. It's literally just DeMaris's tit half the time. So, D'Maris is the mean being in the pod. Are they the pod?

No, this is the pot. No, I'm saying, but the three of them. No. Is this the three peas in the pod? You guys are missing his little jokey joke. Well, it's not even a joke. I'm saying I think there's a love triangle here between the three of them. It's not even a lot.

That's the pod I'm talking about. This triangle, then it's like the Phil Jackson triangle. He's, sure. He's talking about on the whole entire pod. Out of the whole entire pot, Rory is definitely the meanest. Let's just be like, what? What? Roy, you don't think you're a menous person on this pot.

Look how fast they turn on you. Just because I've revealed your, you're, Your deep dark secret of your affair with Pige. Now of a sudden I'm mean. Yeah, that's how Drakefield. Who I've been mean to? Rory. You are, I don't mean like cruel, but you can be a little mean sometimes.

Like to y'all? Hmm. Sounds like another fan poll opportunity. Who's the meanest? Who's the meanest? Who's the meanest, toughest show number. Definitely not me. You're an asshole.

You're not mean. I can be an asshole. I'm not mean. assholes I mean. That's a very different thing. You're very... First of all, clear the room. We're all assholes.

So that's the baseline. Whoa. We're all assholes. Now, who's mean? Yeah, thank you. I'm not mean. Okay, excuse me. Okay.

Literally every time before I can't even pronounce the word wrong, Julian is, is giggling, and about the nut on himself because I was about to say a word on. I have nothing about myself. I'm going to come. That's the fuck he does. It's so annoying. No. Don't come.

Do not come. Do not come. Do not come. Oh, man. Shibuzi, they closed your ass out, didn't they? So I was just going to have your cool little moment on that CMA stage. No, sir, I think they made him perform at this ceremony. That's some fuck shit.

Did he win any awards or he just lost that one? He didn't win any. Jesus. Man, man, Shabuzi, they did you crazy. It's all right, though. Great record, great song. I don't know. I kind of like that the country music just still doesn't.

They still just play in your face. They're like, we don't care. Yeah. Like, we're white. And it's our music. That's the funny part. That's the craziest part about it. It's our music.

Did Morgan Wallen win anything? It's the blackest music. It's the blackest music ever. It's country music. Morgan Wallen be making the most racist songs. He won, oh, entertainer of the year? Of course he did. Crazy.

He'd be like, she had blonde eyes, blue hair, blonde eyes, some shit like that. He'll just like make the, he'll just describe the whitest woman in the whitest situation and just like, he's in a rap song, damn there. It's like country rap. And he's like, yeah, but this ain't for y'all. Respectfully. But yeah. Sorry, Shibuzi. Come to the BT Awards.

We give you something. Actually, no, that's like an insult. Why is that an insult? Shibuzi can't do the BT Awards. Oh, the BT. I thought you meant the BT Hip Hop Awards. No. Oh, well.

Oh, yeah, that's right. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, that's cool. The BETT Awards happened already? Yeah. The hip-hop awards. weirdest ones. We all tuned in.

We all tuned in. In the world. Remember you were talking about they had Glorella up there and you was like this. They didn't even promote it. They could, let's just be honest.

The B.T. the hip hop awards can go. It sucks because that used to be my favorite awards. Like I love the cipher. Yeah, I got a lot of used to be favorites that I just no longer even think about anymore. And the hip hop awards up there. Some,

some fragile favorites. Fragile, fragile awards. The B.T. Hipop awards is a fragile award. That's what sucks, though, because it was by far my favorite. The ciphers were what everyone

we're looking forward to. YouTube is still so important right now, so I don't understand why you can't put all the cyphers on YouTube. You'll monetize there and get your money back. All right, so how about we give BT a present? B.T. Just drop a cipher every week. How about that? Every week. Not every week, no.

Why not? One week? Not enough. Not enough rappers. Simba only has so many raps. There's only so many rappers. There's only one. There's a lot. It's a lot. It's a lot. It's a lot of rappers. It's a lot of rappers. A lot of them ain't good, but it's a lot of rappers.

We can find three or four niggas to throw on a BET cipher every week and just drop it like a commercial, a sprite. Can we shoot a cipher? Yeah. Let's do that for a- We did. Like a skit? No, like, no. Oh, but like not mine, right?

That wasn't a cipher. That was just from a cipher. It was just you though. There was no, you'd never pass the weed. Eminem had six killer rappers behind him and not one of them spit a bar. And some great rappers standing behind him. He had Royce to five nine right behind him. No, I'm saying.

He had Conway standing behind him. he had Westside Boogie right next to him, not a bar. We could go back to that same garage and shoot that. I would love to shoot a cypher with all of us. You got bars? Like, again? I'll write some shit. It sounds like you got him. I'm a writer.

We know that. Some spoken word. Yo, y'all be letting Julie. I'll bring the bongo. I'm a writer. He would definitely make sure they drop the beat. It has to be Acapella. I would. I'd drink 3,000 the shit out of it. I switched the beat up. Got something. Julius said,

I'm a writer. Y'all know that. with so much confidence well that's how he came in the game if you remember right yeah he came in the game I'm coming I'm gonna come alright whatever

speaking of fucking writers I'm always down to do a rap cypher oh man I'm here to rap Lizzo Cizza Kai React that's Lizzo

OZempic is crazy why everybody's not our OZemp yes they are yes she is I hate that no it's an actual fact that everyone is on Ozzyp but every time somebody

lose weight Like, Ozzympic. It's also not an issue. Like, that's fine. Yeah, but it's like some people are actually working really hard to lose. Oh, I think OZMPIC and working hard can go hand in hand. Yeah, it's like steroids and working out. Yeah.

Yeah, that's right. It's the reason why all the chicks that get BBLs are still in the gym. They got to maintain it. Mm. Mm. You didn't even think about that. Nah. No.

You don't think Lizzo has taken Ozempic. Like, you're going to look at me in my eyes right now. I don't think that Lizzo has. I don't know. I don't know. He said think. He didn't. Okay, I don't, I really don't know.

I haven't really thought about it. Do you think she did? Let's think about it now. I think people have been dropping hundreds of pounds before. Baby D, do you think there's a possibility? Of course there's always a possibility. That's it. Now, all right, continue.

But I just don't like attributing it. Guys, she said I tried Ozambic and it didn't work for me. Okay. Fair. She tried it. So I went on, Manginar. It didn't work. When did she say this?

No, she said she went on something else, which did the trick and I lost the weight. So she's saying that she did go on something. something that help her lose the weight. Which, by the way, I think, and this is not a Lizzo spite, I think people that were in her weight class actually need OZem. I think OZempic is important. What is she a welterweight in her weight in her weight class? I was trying to find a respectful way to say it, and it came out to suspect.

What is she a weight? A light heavy now? Is she a light heavy? So, she's a featherweight. Monjaro and Ozambic are different weight loss drugs. So they're more or less the same. OZempic was originally for type 2 diabetes. which is usually people that are scarily overweight

and it affects their health and their organs, so they need OZempic. I think OZemic is great for people that actually need it, not you bitches that can't afford Coke anymore and are already just 160 pounds. That's the crazy shit. I think Lizzo should take OZMPIC for health reasons. Yeah, no, for sure.

And it's not even just an OZMPIC thing. I've just been seeing that thrown out that any time somebody loses weight, they're on OZMPIC or they're on OZIPIC. I've been getting mad OZMPIC accusations. I'm not on fucking OZMPIC. Like, it's just- Who think you on Ozemp?

Yeah, that's wild. That's just stupid. That's just- Where does one even cop OZepic? No, that's not the, that's easy. I'm just saying, I'm just saying, that ain't, that ain't the problem.

Yeah, that ain't the problem. I'm saying that anybody thinks Baby D is on Ozempic is fucking shit. I have been accused of taking Osempic. She was never that big to begin with, and she's not like skinny with a big bobblehead right now. So why would you think she's on fucking over?

Yeah, she looks like Al Roker after he lost on the way. That was like Al Scharpth and taking a selfie with it. That transformation was crazy. Al Roker is so funny. When Al Roker was still, when he... Don't do that because Al Roker is sick. You can't make fun. Don't do that.

All right. All right. Come on. He's sick. It was just funny. It was just funny that he would end every segment with your neck of the woods and his neck look crazy. Guys, the legendary Al Roker is sick. What does he have?

He has diabetes. That's not that. So those... Y'all don't pray for my mom. Yeah, what? My dad got diabetes. My mom also has diabetes. My dad.

Cool as hell. Yeah, but some people, diabetes. What? Wait, I think he does. I don't know. I mean, unless they're having a low blood sugar, it doesn't really change their personality. Like, no, my dad, he's mad, cool.

Like, he's just a cool guy. When you got diabetes, what you're a cool guy? He's just a chill guy. Yo, that is so fucking funny. All right, for real, y'all. Yes, prayers to Al Roker. He didn't die.

Staple of my childhood, Al Roker. Okay, sorry. Get well soon. Get well soon. You can't care. diabetes. Like, well, I guess you could get a new pancreas. Yeah, I'm sorry. You can kind of care it. A pancreas transplant. Just do the, what's the, what's the, what? But that list is long to get on. All right, what are we talking about? Lizzo. And Lizzo both look incredible. Um, I didn't watch

the whole thing, admittedly. I don't have much to give on this topic. But I know they're close friends, so I'm sure it was a fun, fun stream. Don't they like, didn't they like live together at one point? Who? Lizzo and Cizzo. really good friends. Yeah, they're really good friends. Yeah, so I'm sure it was... They look like they're mad fun together. They should hear something together. I'm sure it was hilarious. Is that them on the stream? Yeah, this is them in the kitchen. It was funny. So at one point, I was going to say the girls. Lizo and Siza went into the kitchen while Kai was still upstairs.

And Lizzo was, you know, paying attention to the stream. And she was like, how does he wash his balls? Like, is he clean or is he dirty? Because every time he showers, he's in a bathing suit. So does he really get in there and, like, clean? And Cizzo's, like, how do you know that? She goes, girl, he's streaming the whole thing. Like, you could see him in a bathing suit. It's like really funny. They're dynamic. That was a weird conversation that Kia and I had. I did not know that Siza brought that up. We were watching Kai when he was, had the bathing suit on and they were doing some other shit. And we were both like, his ass and balls must stink. Oh, here. This is very funny. There's no way the bathing suit allows you to.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, he hasn't washed his balls in a long time. Who said that? He said that? Is that true? Wait, what? Well, he's been showering. He's been showering with the trunks on. That's what they said. They say he showers every day with the swim trunk. Oh, that's my first question.

On street. On street. It's been 23 days. No. But maybe he's, he has to be exhausted. He's been dry for 23 days. I don't believe it.

He seems like, they're funny as though. Well, yeah, I'm sure that was fun with them on there. I just haven't had time to stop. Where's Lizzo from? So have you, you haven't been watching the street? Like, do you guys ever just pull it up and watch it? I watched a bunch of clips, but I didn't watch this and Lizzo one. And I've watched like full segments, not, I guess that's a clip when it's a 30-day stream.

But I've watched like hour blocks of clips. I've never seen a single stream from anybody. I've seen clips, but y'all know how I feel about Kai. I love Kai. Bronx Legend, support him. Just don't watch this stream. Well, I don't. I'm not saying, don't watch this stream.

I don't watch the stream. But I love what he's doing. I think he's super dope, super unique. His energy is great. He's a, I don't know how anybody can not like Kai. He's like a lovable person. So shout out the Kai, man. And Lizzo and Cizzo.

And Cizzo. Love you, Cizzo. Love you. And love you, Lizzo. I hope that didn't come across the weight class part. I was really just trying to make a point that OZempic is actually important for. Lizzo, we love you. Lizzo going to be fine.

See, y'all niggas going to be on Lizzo line. She's always been pretty. But now, if that, if Lizzo pop out with that small weights and them thighs and that ass, sitting. All right now. I don't want to see all you niggas all of a sudden at the Lizzo show tomorrow. You niggas love to go to a show. But why not? Yeah, because I saw a nigga go to see his ass. You can file the rest of your team. If you want to take us to the strip club, we will not

press charges. I will not complain. If you force a stripper on my face, you will hear it not a peep for me. Nobody will have. I will hold it down. Nobody will. Dang. That's really tried to get her out the pain for that. Man, shut up. People, they try to get people out the pain for everything. People are just I mean, we kind of did too. Fucking A-list artist. No, We didn't. No, you did, Rory. I had an understanding of why you shouldn't bring certain...

No, man, cut it out, man. Because you're one of them too sometimes. You fall into that part of the social media world. Oh, okay. When you started green with bullshit. Oh. You know what that was bullshit. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

All right. So you think it's bullshit that if you have a full staff of people to not fully understand every member of your staff and think, this is the person I should not bring to the motherfucking strip club. That is a rat. That is somebody. There's no fucking way this person can do that.

They were saying that. they were forced to go to the strip club. No grown person can be forced to do anything. Cut it out with that shit. And they said, I was forced to go to a strip club. Shut the fuck up that shit. She waits,

okay. That was stupid. And I'm saying there's people that, especially on staffs of the magnitude of her touring, of that like nerdy girl over there, you should not bring her in the sprinter to take her to the strip club. I get that.

Because that's the person that's probably going to say, I was forced to go to the strip club. Yeah, but that's what I was speaking. You should make a separate group chat with the freak that you know are on your dance team and do that shit. And then you get in trouble for that. I was separated. I was isolated. And they made me feel weird. And I was discriminated against.

The call sheet. We're doing our own personal shit. If you want to go do something, go do something. That's kind of, it's not to the same extent. But remember the Ice Pice tour incident where the girl that she brought on tour was being. That's bad management. A whole team. Cleo Trapper is her name. Sorry.

That's bad management. That producer of that tour. I don't know. Another Bronx legend. I said, I don't know. Well, if she ain't, she's from the Bronx today, God damn it. And she's a legend if she's from Bronx. Only if she's from Bronx.

She's a legend. That wasn't isolating. That was mismanagement where a producer of that whole tour was not aware that he or she had to feed Cleopatra. Because she didn't even know she was on the fucking tour. Cleo Trapper. Bronx legend. I was using her government name. It's not her government name.

Yeah, but I always felt that was bullshit. She forced us to go to the strict Shut the fuck up I agree with shut the fuck up on that But you should still know the people You should or should not bring around Ain't nobody forcing no grown person to do shit Let's stop the bullshit going into 2025

Yeah, he did he did a lot of that If you're grown Ain't nobody forced you to do nothing Okay well outside of sexual assault Well that's why it's called sexual assault Yeah but that's forced That's forced somebody to do something Yeah but that's going to the strip club

Like when we were in Atlanta After the show we went to a function. It wasn't a strip club by any means. But we were with Pige and Yomes. I know both of them are with the shits. I just know both of them are always with the shits. If there's somebody that we don't even

really know and like they just have weird energy, we're not bringing them out. How many about lights you throw back? Yeah, but when I'm saying, I'm speaking to somebody then saying I was forced to go. Because that person is the person that says I was forced to do some shit when they wasn't even forced to do. You got that fucking sprinter, but you're weird. We don't know you. So we shouldn't

bring you. No, no. I'm just speaking to people saying, you No, you can't. She did force them to go. Shut the fuck up. I don't think she forced. That grown person walked right in the strip club. And wasn't nobody dragging her. Was there nobody drugging her?

Was it nobody? She walked right in there. And now that she's no longer getting that check for working with Lizzo. Now they want to scream. Oh, I was forced to go to a strip club. Sexual. Shut the fuck up. That shit is disrespectful to people that really deal with sexual assault.

Cut it out. Oh, I agree. I don't even think they're in the same category of forcing someone to go to a shit. They tried to make it that. They tried to make it that. That's insane. They tried to make it that.

Pige, did you feel forced over this weekend? Not about to say. I was forced to watch a magic show in the fucking hotel. So what is going on? What happened with Pige in a magic show? What happened? Okay. So we...

He did the transfer hand trick. He had to put a... First, he was asking for a quarter. He was like, yo, get you splashing it's like, you don't know that could have been magic. I'm sorry. Go ahead. I'm not giving it away. I'm just saying he did the transfer.

The transfer of a coin from one hand to another. He started out with his right hand. everybody look at the coin it was in his right hand and then Pete goes like this right and he's like no he goes which hand is it in right I'm sitting there high and I'm laughing because I'm like it can only be in the opposite hand now the real magic the real magic would have been at Pete said check your pocket that would have been then I would have went up to see he's a fucking sorcerer I have to defend peach here because you went with the utmost confidence that it was the other hand.

And then Pige went like this. And then the whole hotel lobby was like, oh! And then we looked over. It was in the original hand. No, it was not. It was in the opposite hand. Y'all kept saying the whole hotel lobby and then just saying it was just y'all and yomes. Something ain't making sense.

What you mean? It was me. It was my boy Bobby. Okay. It was Rory. It was Peage. It was Yomi. And it was two of my home girls, seven of us.

Okay. So it was all right, y'all had people there. Yeah. I had two of my home girls with me. Team. Yeah. And we looked like degenerative. because there was the hotel bar.

The only other people in the entire big-ass lobby was the people at the front desk. Me, Peach, and Yombs got to the hotel and we're like, let's try to catch the bar. And they're like, we're closing, but, you know, we'll pour y'all like last call. And then all and all this people were coming. So we're like, all right, we have to get,

like, can I get a bottle or just something that we could take? They're like, we can't do that. So they just started filling plastic cups with full bottles of tequila and then gave Pete, instead of a six-pack, gave him six beers and a tray. Yeah. So Pete's putting in a plastic bag. You put them in a plastic bag.

He's just slamming butt lights on a tray. Yeah, slamming bud light doing magic tricks. Asking for nickels. Shorty asked for playing cards from the... My home girl went and bought playing cards on the front desk. Said, oh, they're going to charge somebody's room $7. I said, if you don't charge the fucking room and just get the cards? She came back.

She came back without him and was like, they're going to charge the room $7. I mean, Ma was like, see if you get them down. Five, then we'll think about it. Seven, I get the fucking cards, man. Then, then me and her argued about Harry Potter for the next hour. Oh, my God. And then I went to sleep. Fun time.

We had a screaming match about Harry Potter. Fun time. I knew you were wrong the entire time. It's the same argument we've had. Harry is a piece of shit that ruins everyone's lives around him. He's the problem. You projecting. Yeah.

Yeah. And I'm mean. You are a little bit. I'm a victim. What? It was? It was nice. Well, maybe I'm the problem.

I don't know. I'm sorry. That's my bad. Well, it wasn't. nice. Okay, but there's not just mean and nice. Like, there's not just black and white. There's gray. I was, wait, wait, wait. I was talking about a fictional character that doesn't exist. You turned around and said, you're projecting because you are him. I wasn't being mean to anyone. Harry Potter's not real. No one was offended in that situation. Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. No,

genuinely. No, you're not. You're not sorry. That's a mall sorry. Well, I might, I might not have the self-awareness, like we talked about self-awareness, maybe I don't know that I'm being mean. So if that is mean, I'm sorry. I had said that Harry is a piece of shit that ruins everyone's lives. He is the problem. Anything around him falls because he puts himself

into it. True. You then said, yeah, that's you. I didn't say that. I said, that's just you projecting. That's what I said. I said, that's you projecting. Projecting who he is as a person. Yeah, that's... Well, no. That could have been him projecting his own feelings and trauma onto Harry. I didn't say that that's... On to Harry.

Sorry. Go ahead. Did I tell him, shut the fuck up. You want to say it. No, I don't want to be mean anymore. I'm working on being better. See, that's bullshit. You just don't want to be mean, but you want to say it.

I'm working on being better. It smell like gas in here. Who has the lighter? So define projecting, then. What was I doing? Well, projecting can be like you interpret something this way because of your own trauma. So you might watch a story and somebody else might watch a story. And what you think is going on is different because you've experienced something

indifferent than somebody else. That's why I said, you're the only person I've ever, you're the only person I've ever seen say that about Harry, so I'm just thinking, being that you're going against the grain and the majority,

that you're probably just projecting your own traumas and feelings about maybe yourself or your own thing. So am I Ron, am I Hermione? Am I all the dead bodies? Excuse me? I have a projector.

You know, these autistic outbreaks. You're like, for the Knicks. The Knicks, it's nice. It's like on a whole wall. Yeah, but what time do you take your meds? Like, how do you keep that? under control. I don't think I'd be good if I were on meds. Maybe you should try it. Maybe you should look into it. Yeah, maybe. Well, what would I even take?

That's why you go to a doctor. Kalanapin? I don't know. Like, I don't think I probably wouldn't be routine enough. I probably wouldn't take it. It would be bad because I would like, well, it would be off. I mean, you'd be able to like break it up and snort it. If that was that more familiar way. That's asshole. You'd be consistent with it at least. That's what I'm saying. You're fucking hairy. Whatever she said, projector. You're a fucking projector. Oh man. Do We have voicemails? Yeah, we do.

You've got mail. Yo, what's going out, y'all? My name's D from upstate New York, 315. I'd ask you all the question about this. You know the voice. I'm dealing with him. This is you post-op? Gang shit.

Your eyes, look. You know his voice? He said this is you post-op. It's so funny. Go ahead, man. Kind of how y'all would manage it if you were me. A little background. I'm 27 years old.

I've always dealt with some light level of social anxiety. But for the most part, even, you know, through my teenage years and into my adulthood, I've been a more or less confident person. I've always worked out, take care of myself, my health's good, I dress a certain way, crib's good, been in a relationship for 10 years.

Like, life is good. You know what I'm saying? 17 to 27 is crazy. But for whatever reason, since we got back from the pandemic, anytime I'm in a social setting, I sweat profusely. And when I say social setting,

I mean, if I'm at work, if I'm at the grocery store, if I'm at the bar, if I'm doing anything that's not at the house or in a very controlled, comfortable environment, I'm sweating profusely. And it's like I've been in all different circumstances in life. I've fought different people.

I've dealt with different people. I've talked to, you know what I'm saying? He said, if it's a social set and then said, if I go to the grocery store, if I go to work, just life, you sweat a lot. I just don't understand the resume of like, I've been a 10-year relationship, I got money, I know how to fight.

You said I dress a certain way. What does that even mean? I think he said he dressed. He dressed well. He's saying he too really, he too fly of a nigga to be musty. That's what I'm hearing. It sounds like dermatologists. Do you have to go to for that?

What would have to be your sweat glands? Well, let him finish. Let's see. About to give us this whole system. And pretty women that like, I've been in all circumstances in life. And this is an issue I didn't have until I was 24, 25. And it's like ruining my life to where like if I don't have to leave my house, I'm not going to leave my house.

Because I know I'm going to look crazy. I'm gonna be fucking cold as fuck because I'm damn I'm gonna look crazy because I got sweat rings and whatever fucking designer hoodie I got on so how cool could I look like

I don't know how would y'all do you have to be designed? How will we deal with it? Go to the doctor Why are you calling us? Go to the doctor and just tell them what you're telling us like I'm sweating

I don't know why I mean did you get the yeah all right what why y'all that's a real thing

It's not a side effect. How do you know that? I don't know. He brings up a good point. I don't know. How do you know that? You don't know how certain- Fouchi didn't tell me.

Your hormones just change as you get older. Okay, that could be it too, but also you injecting new things into your body. You have a reaction. You don't know what's causing it. But he got a designer hoodie on, though. There could be an underlying issue. If there's not an underlying issue and they just say that this is how your body is now, you can get Botox in your underarms to make you stop sweating.

If it's like in your back and forehead. I would not recommend. you're supposed to sweat. You're not supposed to stop yourself. Well, it would just make the glands smaller, the sweat glands. It would just shrink them. Right. I mean, I...

Call the doctor, sir. Go to the doctor. They would probably recommend that. And I guess advice from RN don't feel insecure about it. It's been three fucking years. You said 24 this started. You're 27 now. You should have went to the doctor right away.

Pandemic? Three years ago, pandemic. Not get the point. He has a good job. You know, they made him get to go back into the world. He gets bitches. He's had the same girl for like 10 years, right? He said he's been in every situation.

Like he's done everything. He ain't called me and like, how do you want to call in LaPont and like not check in with the resident like 315? So you do know him? I don't know him. He's 27. I don't know no male 27 year olds.

But like your exes his little brother. You know male 27 years. Don't do that. Not really. No, I had a little sister. So I know a bunch of young girls like younger girls that age. How old is your sister? My little sister is 27.

So I know girls that age. A 27-year-old man is hilarious. You definitely know a 27-year-old. You're working medium. Not in, y'all are, are y'all missing where I said in Syracuse? You're being mean. You're being mean.

I'm trying to keep a level tone when I'm talking to him and they're asking me stupid shit. That's when women are the meanest. That's worse. I don't know 27-year-old boys and men in Syracuse. Okay, got you. That's what I was saying. Was that area code specifically for Syracuse? 315, yeah.

That's the Syracuse. Does that cover more than Syracuse? It does. You see from the proper Syracuse. could be Utica. Anyway, he got a call and check in. You feel me? He's sweating too much.

He has hyperhydrosis. That's what the medical term is. So we suggest him getting the injections as a way to reduce. Go to a doctor. Don't listen to anything we have to say except for. Go to the doctor. Yeah, definitely go to the doctor first. And explain everything you explained to us outside of saying how much you can fight, how well

you dress, how many bitches you get. Just say, hey, I've been sweating profusely for three years. De Versaceeatchi hoodie's not. good sweat wicking technology. Sweat wicking. I've noticed that the older I've gotten, that's been a big thing for 34 for me. You got must ear?

No, I don't smell. I really don't smell that much when I sweat, but I sweat more. Same. I used to never sweat. I sweat way more now. Yeah, I sweat a lot. Of course I am. Julian's, he got the double booster.

Yep, I took one this morning. A daily booster is crazy It's my vitamin C It says around the age 25 You've seen my card before Of course I am It seems it says around age 25 is when men's That kind of hormonally can change

So Yeah I sweat like Not like this gentleman But I do notice that like when I'm getting dressed now Like I'll be like what the fuck I just got out the shower why I'm my fucking sweat Oh yeah I sweat out the shower a lot Yeah shit is weird

I was going to take cold showers. Different places. I end my shower with all cold water. That's good. Yeah. You're actually supposed to take cold showers. Close the pores out. That's what that does, too.

Yeah. Well, pores don't technically open or close, but yeah. Either do doors. They can appear smaller or larger, but they don't actually open or close. So they just, like, fluctuate? They can appear smaller or larger, but. Yeah. They don't actually open or close.

Because your epidermis is a living. organ. But still more things can get in your pores when they are quote unquote open when the skin around. All don't even. So then what? How do you then like how do you explain anything? So things can always get in your pores.

It's not like there's more, you're more likely to get something in your pores that it's because it's open or closed. Like things can always get in your pores no matter what. Got you. Yeah. It's like your skin's making it wink. Got it. But I feel like if I put like a bunch of coconut oil on my face, it'll just close up.

You shouldn't do that. I know. She definitely should never do that. Please don't do that. That's the worst shit you can put me. But then aren't... When I was younger, I did that and a girl told me, I wasn't in high school yet. I was probably junior high.

I was putting coconut oil on my face. And she's like, what the fuck are you doing? That's awful. That's so bad. That is crazy. So your pores can be clogged. So when we say open, when people say open or closed, they mean like if your pores appear big and then suddenly they don't, they say, oh, your pores are closed.

No. But your pores can be clogged. That's different from opening clothes. That's what that young lady was telling me, like you're putting coconut oil on your face. You are closing or clogging every single pore that you have. Clogging your pores is usually with oil, natural face oils, not coconut oil like Roy was doing.

But you can't clog it with other oils too. Oil slabs of coconut oil on your face. Dirt in like dead skin cells are what commonly clogged. I still put a little coconut oil in my hair every now and then though. I can't do it. Well, we have the same hair. I'm allergic to that shit. Come on. No matter of fact, we're punching back in. Pige wasn't recording.

Maul, what type of soap do you use? For my body or face? Body. I use regular with Dove. Okay. Yeah, I'm back on Dubb. I did years with the doctor, um, Dr. Bronner's. Dr. Bronners. But then I started like, I don't want to shit on Dr. Bronner's.

But I started to feel weird like the shit I could clean my floor with. I don't know if I should be cleaning my body with. Yeah. So I think I just need a break from. Dr. Bronner's. I went back to Dove. Yeah, I'm just Dove, unscented, body wash. Yeah. Lufa guy, rag guy, what do you?

I got the little sponge ball things. Nice. Yeah, I got that. Then I have the little pad for your face, the facial exfoliation pad. Yeah, I got all that. Has anyone been getting these IG ads of like the exfoliating thing you can add to your shower? And the ad is just people rubbing their fucking back like this. Yeah, I don't even get it. It looks so sick. Yeah, that's crazy. Just get the old school lufel with the

hand on it, man. Putting something on your wall and just like gyrating in the shower. It's just like... I don't know. I kind of like the idea. It's weird. The ads look nuts. I'll check it out. But there's a few different Sephora brands I use for face wash in the shower. But I've been on the rose shit lately for face moisturizer.

That's been great. Not that type of rose. Though that would probably really push in some of that moisturizer if you put a rose on your face. I want to get like one of them jade rollers. Yeah. Those are great. Put it in the fridge, get it cold. You don't do that? Really nice. I keep it in a freezer. Yeah, I don't do that. I've never used

Or you can get the ice thing where you pour like filter, obviously water into it and let it freeze and then like you ice roll. On your face? Yeah. That also minimizes the appearance, of course. And also helps with redness and swollenness like in your eyes are swollen when you wake up. It helps. Yeah, my skincare between is very simple, honestly. I don't really do too much.

I've been doing cold water facials for probably the past few months like three times a week. Just a bowl of fucking ice water. 30 seconds. If you can last, come back up. 30 seconds is a long time. Oh yes the fuck it is. You be trying to ground yourself? Yeah.

When you have a two-year-old, you can come up out of that water and your two-year-old, she then got into all kinds of shit. You're like, you know, my face was in the bowl for 30 seconds. Yo, I took the trash out just outside the door, not even like out. Yeah. And I turned around, this was yesterday. Amara had taken out of two tissue boxes, every single tissue, and ripped all of them up between the time I went to just,

put trash outside the door and back in. Yeah. That's how you do it. So while I'm drowning myself, Amarra's getting into- She's going to have a great time. But cold water in your face is very important. Yeah. All right.

Ready? Let's do another. Hey, what's up, y'all? My name is Brandon. I'm from San Antonio, Texas. So I just had a question for y'all. I just want to know, have you all ever had that time in your life where, you know,

you met somebody and you all had that, you know, that real deep connection, that bond with, and, like, everything was just great. but it just didn't work out because of like a right person, wrong time type situation. I just want to know y'all's thoughts on that. And I just wanted to thank you all as well for all y'all's hard work and everything y'all do to keep that pod going. It's definitely something I look forward to every Tuesday and Friday.

We appreciate it. And y'all inspire a lot more people than y'all realize. So thank you for that. Thanks, man. That was nice. That was such a sweet, sweet, sweet voicemail, Brandon. Thank you very much for that. And if we ever end up in San Antonio drinks on us, man.

You seem like someone that has an address. yet. Yeah, he seems sounds a little young, right? He sounds nice. Yeah. Thank you, Brandon for that. What corrupt you out in that city? What was Brandon asking? I'm sorry. Something Baby D could definitely take away. He said when you have something with someone, but it just doesn't work out because the timing isn't right. Right person, wrong time. Right person, wrong time. That's a real thing.

Gee, hurt. That's a real thing. Right person, wrong time is a real thing. I think everyone's been through that. Yeah, so he sounds a little young, so this might be his first right person, wrong time. Yeah. situation. And don't beat yourself up over that because as time passes, you'll realize, even though they were cool, it was the wrong time and you're in a better place now because of it. And if enough time passes, you'll realize it was the wrong person. Wrong time. Yeah. No, wrong person, right time. Yeah. She was the right person for that time.

And thank God that time is past. That time is gone. You are now different, man. That's going to happen with everything in your life, not just relationships. That can be with career stuff, that can just be in general. That's part of growing up where things seem like they're right, but timing doesn't add up and everything will work itself out. Even simple things down to fashion, we always joke about

seeing old photos of you and clothes. We always make fun of Rory's old clothing. It's like, well, at the time, that made sense. But now you look back and, like, well, that was awful. Terrible decision. So it's not just like a, to Rory's point. Like, this is a thing. Why was it just my fashion because you've shared some shitty clothing things with us. I've made some choices.

Yeah. So that's not, you know, You're thinking about it in terms of a relationship, but that's just life. That happens with everything. You can listen to music at one point that you thought was great, that you think is trash and vice versa. You know, you just change. You're growing. Pause. As long as you get out of the moment what you need, get some nourishment and move on.

You'll get some head. Yes. I mean, that's what I was really getting at. Yeah. But sometimes people are just experiences and vice versa. Sometimes you're just an experience for someone and they move the fuck on. And you do the same. The purpose was just for that moment.

So it wasn't really wrong time. or a right person. That was just a moment that you have to share and move the fuck on. Yeah, man. Don't beat yourself up too much, Brandon.

It happens. Women that like the buses. Yeah. There's one coming every four minutes. She ended up getting hooked on fentanyl and 10 years down the line you'll be like, thank God. Then you'll play Beyonce's...

But if she would have been with him, she wouldn't have got hooked on it. You'd kill me. Nah. Then we would both be hooked on it. Like Jesse and his girl in Breaking Bad. They were both trash. Which one?

The one that died. He went through a couple crackers. The one that walked. The one that Walter watched die. Yeah. Big cracket. That girl was hurting. See, he is in San Antonio.

San Antonio is historically one of the fattest cities in the country. So maybe she just gains just a thing. It's a thing. I might like fat asses. Nothing better than a fat ass. Boo. The fuck is wrong with y'all, bro. A lot.

All right. Well, last reminder of the year, Rory. It's the last show. Yes. December 14th. We are home. We will be at the Gramacy Theater in New York City to end our year of live shows. Thanks to every city, everybody that came out this year, 2024.

Had a great run this year, man. Yeah. Seen some cool people, met some new cool people, seeing some old faces. Not like old like that, but old familiar faces. Thank you to everybody that came out in Atlanta. Atlanta was great. Had a good time. Page and I were talking after the show between Toronto and Atlanta.

We were like, damn, maybe we should just keep going because the last two shows have been incredible. I thought Chicago was incredible, though. Chicago was one of my favorites by far. Chicago might have been the best show. Yeah. But this back-to-back, Toronto, Atlanta was. Yeah, Toronto was fun. Atlanta was great.

Thank you again. Tickets available now, new Roryin Mall.com. Get your tickets. We will be in New York City to end the year. December 14th, Gramsie Theater. Time to have some fun with the home team, home crowd. Our first home game of the year. Is it? Oh, yeah, I guess.

I mean, we always do. We always in the year at home. So we've been on the road. Now we get to have fun at home. Everyone have a safe holiday week. Yes, be safe. Be blessed. Yes, we'll still have content for you guys. Don't worry. This isn't goodbye. But just wanted to say before Thanksgiving.

This is just a take care for now. Yes, travel safely. I know most people would be leaving Tuesday and Wednesday. If they are traveling, be safe. It's amateur hour on the roads, you know. What about you guys? Everyone going home? What's everyone doing?

Yeah, going to see the family, man. Got to go see the family. Yeah, take the train Tuesday morning. Nice. Oh, shit. Tomorrow morning. Damn. Well, today, technically.

Today. If you're hearing this, Julian's on the train. On the train. On that midnight train is connected. I don't know that version. Oh, that's a new one. The midnight train. It's like Shibuzzi.

Shibuzzi did with, you know, his version. Midnight train is connected. While I'm home, I want to see Wicked. I've heard nothing but incredible things every time someone sees it. Yeah, I've heard good things about that. Two of the greatest voices we have right now in that movie. How's that get? Because she's mean.

She's mean. She's mean. She's the green witch and wicked. That's what she is. Yeah. She came down in a bubble, Doug. You guys ever saw that? Please tell me you know what I'm talking about.

Okay, thank you. I was like, I can't be that in the internet by myself. What is that? Beautiful train ride up to Albany. I love that. Are you got a window seat? I usually get one. Yeah.

I do the thing where I like, are my shit, no one can sit next to me or I'll like look mean and put a hoodie on and just look like, don't talk about me. Are you going to take pictures?

I was pretend to be asleep when every time they stop. I do that too. Oh, that must be so nice. I'm a girl, so people always want to sit next to me. All the time. I'm also super cognizant of that

because like usually when there's open seats and it's like a cute girl, I'm like I can't sit next or if it'll look like a way. So I try, I'll just sit next like the fucking creepy game. I don't even think it's the girl because I don't be cute. Like, I travel really raggedy on purpose.

It's not even that I'm cute. It's that I'm a girl. So it's like, it's more comfortable. And men always just open their legs up and spread their legs because they have more leg room with me than they will with another man. It happens all the time. If I saw a pretty girl on a train and I knew I had like a three-hour train ride, I would do everything to avoid sitting next door.

Same. No. Men always. Like, I'm such a loser. So fucking annoying. That happened to me into airport in Atlanta. You were the pretty girl or? No.

I felt like the pretty girl. No, when I was leaving, when I was, when I was leaving, when I was, I was, I landed in Atlanta. I was walking in a baggage claim. And a flight attendant was walking the opposite way. And like, I was looking at it. But I had my, I don't think she, I had a hoodie on. I had my air pods in.

I don't think she could see that. I have my air pods in. And I'm looking, I'm just staring at her. But not staring at her, like, I'm trying to, like, flirt with her. We just walking like this. And she started smiling, but she tilted her head, like, can I help you? But she was smiling. And I know she wanted me to just stop her and talk to her, but I didn't.

I just smiled it. And I kept walking. Pussy. Oh, my God. I had a moment like that. That's what I told the story. And shout out. Shout out to the fan that I met.

I was walking right. And there was this guy and like we kind of like locked eyes. And I was like, oh, like, you know, I did my cute little lock eyes and smile. Let me see how you do it? What? You want me to do it? Yeah. No, I can't do it.

It's weird. It's weird. It's weird. It felt weird, to be honest. Observing it made me feel uncomfortable. Yeah. Oh, baby. Don't do it.

No, I can. She said. That was weird. It was weird. It's awkward. I can't do it what I got here on the spot. But it was like a cute. Can I do my impression to you of you?

Uh-huh. Let's lock eyes. That was like what Amara does. But that's the same thing the girl did. That's the same thing the flight attendant did. She had a head tilt it. It was like smiling. Can I help you?

Like that. That's exactly what it was. Yeah. It was a cute little look and then like a look away or whatever. So he locked eyes. So I'm like, he's coming down. I'm like, oh, he bought the holler. Like, whatever.

He walked up to me. He was like, Demaris, right? Big fan of the pot. I was like. bro. I thought I had like me a little me, cute moment. Thank you for being a fan of the pie. Shout out to him, but like.

Yeah, but he's saying fan of the pod. That don't mean he wasn't, wouldn't, wouldn't think you to dinner. No, he didn't even slide. He just had fan of the pod. Our fans would definitely be. Demaris swears she's not going to beat a fan of the pod. I'm not. Come on.

Not on purpose. If somebody tricked me, somebody trick me, somebody trick me. Not on purpose. Imagine, imagine Damaris thinking a nigga really like her and he'd come out the bath with the wet rag. Like, yo, that shit you said on Patreon. I was crazy. And after all the days, never said a word about anything.

I would, I would, like, oh, you do broadcasting? That's interesting. You do broadcasting. Bro, I would, oh, my God. Oh, man. All right, happy Thanksgiving. Are we celebrating Thanksgiving? Yeah.

Not like the theory of it. Have you fuck white people day. Yeah, like, I'm down with that. Now that I'm down with. I love you. I still look at it as like a day that at least family can come together and eat. Like, we don't sit at the table and like, celebrate genocide.

Yeah. You don't? Oh. No. Yo, are you good? Different religion. Different religion. Spend time with the family, have fun with your friends, be thankful for everything
