Oh yes yes yes. The energy. Alright y'all welcome back to another episode of The Latest with Lauren LaRosa. I'm your host Lauren LaRosa and you know that this is your daily dig into all things

pop culture, exclusive news, and the conversations that shake the room. I'm the homegirl that knows a bit about everything and everybody, but joining me today, Brandon's here as always. Yes, I am back. We got, Los has been on the podcast. Yes, Carlos Polk is back. Carlos Polk. Carlos work.

That's his podcast name, Carlos Polk. Yeah. But we have a special guest in the podcast. Carlos Poke is back. Carlos Poke. That's his podcast name, Carlos Poke. But we have a special guest in the room. West Coast is in the building. DJ Head is here. Another round of applause. Another round of applause. Greetings and salutations. Appreciate you. It's my first time meeting DJ Head and we had some wild conversations. Really? It's my first time interacting verbally. Yes. So, excited to see where this podcast goes today. Yeah. All right.

Well, the way that we kick off the podcast head, your first time here is we do a behind the grind, behind the scenes of the grind check-in. Okay. Cause you know, people, we be moving, we be grooving. You literally are here for like 24 hours, if even that. Literally. Exactly.

And we working all day long and people don't ask you how are you doing. If they do, they don't really mean it. But here- I never ask people how they doing because I don't be genuinely giving a fuck. So I just, so people be like, hey, how you doing?

I'm like, hey, I don't like- Ask it back. Yeah, because it's a rhetorical question. That's exactly. So normally this is exactly why we do it this way. The way that we do it here because it is not rhetorical here. So I'm going to ask ask you how are you doing?

I honestly wanna know. It can be one word, it can be one sentence, we keep it concise, and then we dig a little bit more, but it's real cute, but it's a real check-in. Okay. Back, back, back on the grind. Grinding. So how you doing, head?

I'm blessed. Oh, blessed is a good, I didn't know where you was gonna go, scientific or? Yeah, no, I'm blessed. You know, I'm not sleeping, but I'm blessed. I got you. Okay, why you feeling blessed? Like is there something specific that happened recently? No, it's not that.

I mean, I'm definitely blessed with opportunities and stuff, but I think that like anytime I just wake up, I think life is really cool. I wake up every day and like I'll be at my house and I'd see birds outside and they'd be chirping and shit. I'm like, this is some cool shit, like life in general. Everything is like symbiotic and working together. So I'm just grateful for chirping and shit. I'm like, this is some cool shit, like life in general. Everything is like symbiotic and working together. So I'm just grateful for life and animation.

Well, that's a good way to think about things. Life is really, really cool. I feel blessed in the moment as well too. Brandon, how you feeling? I'm feeling good too. I'm feeling good as well. I want to add to what you said earlier about like just the how are you question.

Yeah. People I know overseas say that's like an American thing where we'll say how are you and just walk right my people I know overseas say that's like an American thing where we'll say How are you and just walk right past the first? Like we don't really do overseas. They'd be like hi. How are you? They stop every like hey, I'm doing fine Americans be like, how are you just keep it moving over here? When I actually hear how y'all doing I really care how you're doing. Oh, so do you stop I'm stopping here?

We're having a conversation about you was asking so we could just contemplate with ourselves. Yeah Because it's not going on I feel like people who are career busy and very like career and and like, you know pushing through the grind We compartmentalize very easily and that is a good thing But it can also be a bad thing because eventually like those compartments get full and I mean I had I know you don't like To be vulnerable and stuff, but it's not that I don't like to be vulnerable I just I just express myself differently than most people. Okay, I'll take that but I'm emotionally divergent Mmm divergent, please explain that cuz that could have been how you doing today

I was just like, you know how people are neurodivergent Yeah, which I also subscribe to I think I'm emotionally divergent meaning you're just outside of the norm. Yeah, got you Well, I mean inside or outside of the norm. The reason I do it is just because I feel like in my own personal life I'm one that be like no, I'm cool. I'm cool. I'm cool I'm cool And then it gets to a point where it starts to show and work that I'm not cool and then I got to take a step Back. Yeah, I think we're scared of the bad answers though Like he's all I'm just not like god damn

I'm like now I gotta yeah console you yeah you and I'm not mad at your mom down anything But I just it's a lot to take in with somebody just those so then why even indulge? Yeah to be nice It's not nice if it's disingenuous yeah, if it's being if you're being disingenuous, how is it nice? Yeah, I'm just a courtesy I don't think you got to be I think they'll still take it as a as a gesture I don't think you'd necessarily have to I feel like genuine like genuinely know how somebody's doing That's a little nosy. Like does it really know? It's a little nosy to ask how you doing and expect a deep dive answer. Yeah Well, I think it's the setting as well too.

So like here, or like if I went with my friends and we're in a, like it depends on who I'm talking to and where we are. Sometimes I do just say it out of courtesy because it's like when you walk into a room, you speak, you have to speak, like that type of thing. But in other settings, if I ask, I really like, you know, like how you doing?

Like, how are you? We just deep dive into that. How are you? Yeah. Let's get to the topic. We ain't even at the end. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Lose, how you doing? I mean, are you? We just deep dive into the how are you. Let's get it to the top. We ain't even at the top. My fault, my fault, my fault. Close, how you doing?

I just want to chime in. It's this guy, a monk, Buddhist monk, that he escaped and moved to New York. Is he you? Yeah. His name is Don Dupani. And he would say, don't ask people how you doing because you're asking to take on that energy.

Just send out good energy, like I hope all is well. I think that's what I'm getting at. So a lot of times you might hear me, like I hope all is well. I think that's what I'm getting at, yeah. So a lot of times you might hear me say, I hope all is well, or I'll start an email off, I hope all is well. If it ain't, then shit, I hope, but I ain't ask you if it wasn't, I'm just. Correct, that makes sense.

I start my emails off like that because I was just trained in work, that that's how you do. Yeah, but when somebody give you that energy, you asking for a lot because you ain't even start your day sometimes. Yeah. You be like, oh man. But you're feeling okay.

Yeah, I'm feeling great. I do, I am beginning to think, I may need to get like evaluated. I think I might be on the spectrum a little bit. I think I said something about, I'm just starting to think that way. I might be, I ain't gonna put it out there, but like what it is because some people be sensitive.

So if I say I feel like I might be autistic, then they might take that as like a, like a, you know, a pee-pee. I'm with you, bro. I feel like I'm a little spectrum-y for sure. What made y'all feel that way? Cause we so different. Oh, just cause I'm neurodivergent

is not being of the norm. I just think that I'm just completely out the box. Most of the time I come off as insane, especially to women, but. Jesus. It's so crazy though, because I feel like you're super comforting and as a friend, you're a really good friend.

Yeah. Can I say an introduction? It's kinda okay for us to talk like this too, in the beginning, because we are the latest. We are the latest. Period. We're the next latest. People gonna be talking about us, so it's good.

People talk about him all the time. Yeah, we sitting here with big money right now. Yeah I'm on your show in No, yeah, not yet I got it. He said no Alright, well speaking of the latest we are gonna get into the latest and because we have head here Y'all we are going to get into the latest. And because we have head here, y'all know we're going to get into some K-dots. Kendrick Lamar is the first rapper in history to gross over $9 million in a single concert. Now it is being reported that the co-headlining tour between Kendrick Lamar and SZA breaks Eminem's 2019 record in Melbourne, grossing that $900 million,

which is a huge, huge deal, especially because in the beginning of all this, when the G&X Tour announcement dropped, people were saying people weren't gonna go out to see. People literally said that people did not wanna see a Kendrick Lamar set. Yeah. I don't think that's true in any sense.

And they were kinda, it's like the first thing they do is make a comparison between Kendrick and Drake his shows and and Kendrick shows and didn't say his shit ain't gonna sell out. I don't know it was I was I was there I was at the Atlanta show and the Mercedes-Benz stadium Not not dome because it's not to be confused the Mercedes-Benz stadium and it looked crazy to me Yeah, I didn't see hella open seats and all that kind of shit. It was packed now This is a 39 stop stadium tour

That's insane. I was 39 stops, but that's not even included in multiple days. Yeah. Oh Oh multiple days in different stops. Yeah, so he's doing three at SoFi at home in LA. Two at MetLife, right? Yeah, buyer. Two out here, three at home, two in Toronto that I know about. So three at home at SoFi, that's where the Super Bowl was. Right.

Taylor Swift, I think, is the only other person that did three days at SoFi. Wow. Wow. Fuck. Yeah. I really think all that situation with Drake sent him to another stratosphere. Obviously he was selling out before that, but it really, I don't think anybody could deny that

he wasn't gonna, anybody could say he wasn't gonna do well after everything. You feel like without no Kendrick. After that phenomenal year he had, like there's no way he wasn't doing this. Yeah. So you feel like without Not Like Us he couldn't have did this?

No, no. I think it would have been a little smaller, but I think he was always selling out, sell out artists though. Well, I asked you that because that has been the conversation. These numbers are astronomical, but- When this news broke, the conversation was he needed Drake to do this. And people always throw that out there about Kendrick in the conversation right now. But in 2023, the Big Steppers Tour became the highest grossing rap tour of all time. It was eclipsed the

following year by Drake, it's all a blur tour, but it did happen first. So I think that, I don't know why it is with Kendrick and him, I don't know, maybe you, you a little closer to the source. People like that, like Kendrick, like this all just happened overnight for him. Like, like, because people, it's, it's two two things the first thing is people are super fans of Drake like Drake raised them so it's like telling them that Santa Claus ain't real you can't tell me that you know what I'm saying like it's certain shit that you can't say about certain people for instance even when even when certain people are probably flawed just like everybody else like you know what I mean like we have moguls that are probably no longer heralded as what that was as what they once were because

You fuck around and find out that they're just a human being like everybody else. You know what i'm saying? And so My that's the first thing the second thing is he's always been discounted The whole the whole time but he's been discounted the whole time, but he's been discounted for lack of a better way, just saying, oh, he's not a star, just because he doesn't indulge in the fruits of being a star, right? So, and I said this before on the air, but I think like he has the same problem

that like Jokic has, you know, on the Denver Nuggets. Like he just went a championship and don't even give a fuck. He don't care. He go home and play with his horses and his videos and his random stuff. So you have somebody who's completely indulgent in being a superstar and you have somebody who don't even give a fuck about being a superstar. Do you sincerely think Drake care about being a superstar or is he trying to be a persona? No Drake-

I think it's a little bit of both but go ahead. Drake 100% cares about Stardom is that a bad thing now? I would say it's a bad thing. Nothing is bad. Yeah, it's not necessarily a bad thing It's how you go about it. Yeah, and you don't respect the way Dre goes about it cuz no Why it just depends on it depend on what would fast it like for instance? the way that The way that he uses culture to manipulate, I disagree with that because there are- I was about to say the AI stuff with Snoop and-

It wouldn't even be the AI stuff. I'm talking about, for instance, I'm not saying that there aren't rough areas where he's from, but where I'm from, where Dot is from, we call it false flagging. You can't false flag. I don't never claim to be a gang member. I'm not a gang member. I'm considered a where Dada's from, we call it false flagging. You can't false flag. I don't never claim to be a gang member. I'm not a gang member. I'm considered a non-affiliate. So if I get on here and start cousining and blooding

and stuff, I would get quote unquote G-checked when I get back home. But what happens is when you don't get checked, you go without checks and balances, then you arrive at a place where now you're the dictator of those checks and balances, i.e. Kanye West. You know what I'm saying? So now it's now you're the dictator of those checks and balances, i.e. Kanye West. You know what I'm saying?

So now it's like you're allowed to just be whoever you want to be without any repercussions. And I think that's kind of like what's going on. Well, recently Young Thug sat down with GQ Magazine and they asked him about the whole Kendrick Lamar Drake thing. And he's like, I don't know where this came from because I'm a, I'm a Drake fan. Like I don't understand why Kendrick Lamar brought me into it. Yeah. I mean, I get what you're saying as far as culture, but like when you got people like young thugs saying like, yeah, no, but I don't subscribe to that. Doesn't that, that doesn't help what

you're saying because- No, but everybody has their own experience. Just like some people would say, you know, they're probably individual, there might be individuals that say Weinstein was a good man. You know what I'm saying? Or I'm just not wanting to say Epstein. You know what I'm saying? Like- I think Kendrick's point was that he was keeping these

people around him for credibility. Exactly. But I'm saying if, if Kendrick's point is you keeping all these people around you for credibility and to be able to like, you know what I mean? Falsely throw this flag, but the people who are around you are like, I mean, but that's my boy, that's my homie. It doesn't, there's no like, there's no checking,

there's no big homies that are like, no, this is not okay. Like if Young Thug has said, I'm a Drake fan, but like I get what Kendrick is saying because like, nah, this is our shit. That would have been different. He wouldn't say that because that's his homie though. But also, see, that's what I'm saying. Like where we're at in a culture

is the two things are conflated. You have street, we call it, Glasses call it street urban culture and you have rap. Those two separate things that get conflated because hip hop is looked at as this one umbrella. So where we're from, it doesn't matter if you've done something. For instance, you could take Lil Wayne for instance.

Lil Wayne is from New Orleans, Louisiana, right? But he's also quote unquote from the mob, mob paroo that's in quote unquote in Compton, right? So if one of my OG homies, I ain't gonna say no names, one of the homies, and he's like a reputable from that section, and he says, this my little homie Wayne, he from the section, that's it, that's law.

Meaning there's no questioning, you don't get to, that's just what it is. It's my homie from, and now he from the section. You get what I'm saying? So I'm not saying that that's what Thug is doing, but it's just different things that are not the same thing one-to-one in hip hop. Got you.

Well, I mean, it's coming on a year this week that everything happened. I remember I was in, y'all remember where y'all were when not like us dropped? It's crazy. But for real, I was in a party for Cin remember where y'all were when Not Like Us dropped? It's crazy, but for real, I was in a party for Cinco de Mayo. It was Cinco de Mayo, right?

I was in a party, I was drunk, I remember. And then somebody came to me, I was in Delaware, and it was like, Kendrick finally dropped because he was waiting on it. And then they played the Not Like Us. I felt like Kendrick was trying to say, like when he did the party, the party died or something,

what's the- Watch the party die. Watch the party die. It was like his music did that without saying it, right? It was like, I'm gonna show y'all how to party differently. I'm gonna show you how to embrace who you are as a black person. I feel like Drake's music, while it's good and it's fancy and you can dance to it, I do feel like he,

like he didn't grow up the way that we, oh, it doesn't feel like he grew up the way that we, well it doesn't feel like he grew up the way that we did, but he knew how to speak to it. And because he knew how to speak to it, then he can make music around it. You get what I'm saying? Yeah.

How y'all feel about when Kendrick brought out Playboi Carti, people were upset about it. They said that he was basically exploiting artists for the same thing that he accuses Drake of doing. How y'all feel about that? So a bunch of people who aren't part of the music game commenting on the music game. Like they were, he was in Atlanta. He brought out Playboi Carti who's from Atlanta.

And they have three songs, Dot gave him three features on the album. And they performed one of the biggest records right now. So I don't understand. People are just silly. So do y'all feel like people are ever going to get to a point where like this, cause you know how like people beef and then we just like move on? We won't even really talk about it. We're talking about this as if like, I mean it is history, but you know what I mean? Like we just remembered where we were when songs dropped. You think that that feeling will last like generational or like eventually we'd be like, yo.

What feeling of this specific? Like, yo, you remember where you were when Not Like Us dropped or when the beef started? I think it was definitely a moment in time. In hip hop especially. I definitely always remember it. Numbers wise, Super Bowl. But then the only comparison that I can have that I remember and I was young was Jay-Z and Nas.

And I felt like niggas talk about that for a long time. And I've been like the beef. They still arguing. And they became friends on top of that. So it's like, damn Drake, Drake. And then after they became friends, look how long it took for people to actually like, all right, like, okay, they're friends. Like it's not a game.

I don't think Drake and Kendrick ever becoming friends. No, and I think in the moment of that time. Head, is that, I mean, am I crazy for assuming that? I don't see it happening. Yeah, I don't see that happening. They weren't friends before. But also you gotta got to understand, one person crossed the line before the other person.

So I think that's the nuance that gets lost in translation. It's just like, you know, like he said it in the record, but when you offer somebody a friendly, that's amongst the homies. Like if we homies, I offer you a friendly fade. That's like, again, that's where I think the disconnect is happening in these conversations. Street urban culture, rap music. And rap music, he can't say that about you.

Street urban culture, there is no rules. Rap world is you cross the line. Street urban culture, I gave you a line, you crossed it, now it doesn't matter, now no lines exist. That's the difference. Yeah, and that's what happened. So what was the specific line cross that you're referring to?

I mean, I think he said, we ain't gotta make it personal. I think Drake made it personal first, and then after that. See, the thing thing is once, where we're from, if I give you a line and I say, hey bro, let's have a fight. Because we just having a disagreement, right? And you tell me where I'm from, you tell me, all right, look, we could fight, but you know,

like I got shot and I got a bad rib. Don't hit me in my rib. And I just keep, I hit you in the rib. You like, bro, I got shot and I got a bad rib. Don't hit me in my rib. And I just keep, I hit you in the rib. You like, bro, what the fuck? Now, there are no rules because you gave me the line and I stepped over it. Okay.

Behind the scenes, because there were things, claims of like people being removed from like songs or like something like that because they were associated with Kendrick and then the lawsuit came and like that type of stuff or was it like, Drake was really trying to be outside in the streets No, it ain't none of that. It's just if I have a conversation with you about what the line is

So they had a conversation about what the line was I'm not saying that I'm saying if I do have a conversation with you Okay and you step over that line that we that I presented to you now it's up It's up I feel like low-key put it in the music though, like yo, once you talked about his family and his children and who they mess with and stuff like that,

that's the line. If I tell you my line and you intentionally cross it, there is no such thing as I went too far. Right. Well, I mean, we don't even have time to get to other topics because we had such a great conversation. But I've enjoyed hanging out with the guys on the podcast. We have five minutes. We do so What we do after we get through our latest our topic rundown is we take it outside to the streets in the tweets

Which is anything that's happening conversation on the internet So I actually went to your Twitter head I actually went to your Twitter head. Oh, shoot. Oh my God. You're such a fucking journalist, bro. I feel like people never remember what they tweeted. Oh, I know everything I tweeted. And you tweeted in 2013.

I stand on my tweets. I don't have tweets before 2014 because I got rid of them, but anything after 2014- How do you do that? Oh, yeah. I got to put you on. You got to hire someone? No, you don't. Oh, you don't? No. Okay. But yeah, I'm a you on yeah, um, no, you don't I don't know But yeah, I'm a nerd so I figure shit out. Yeah. Yeah, so any tweet that is out there. I stayed on my shit

Well, I mean I wasn't a crazy one But now you got me going down your timeline trying to find her crazy when the way you reacted It's not gonna be anything crazy. No, I don't see nothing crazy But you had tweeted videos out from the Kendrick Lamar concert and you captioned it You can't fake influence. Correct. A great way to end the show because I think right now you also have a pin tweet that says I'm not a journalist, I'm a DJ. Because I respect journalists. And I remember during the time of all the back and forth when you know people were looking,

you were one of the Kendrick sources and academics was on the other side with Drake. I don't know if people knew how to title you because the information was coming from you a lot, sometimes. Well, I know that that person claims to be the best the number one journalist in the game And I just have I have too much respect for I think journalism is a craft just like being a doctor or a lawyer Yeah, and so I respect journalism too much to just pop out and be like I'm a journalist Yeah, I don't think that academics is a journalist at all. I think the machine got a drunk rant think that academics is a journalist at all. I think the machine of what he's built, I say I always, I respect the machine of what he's built, but he is not a journalist. I

think we as journalists, we vet things a lot differently. We have conversations a lot differently. I'm not mad at what he's doing, but I think that there does always need to be a defined point of anybody who does something at a, he's a professional, but like, it's different. Like I know you on the radio and you coming from a background of journalism, which you know there's two things that exist within the confines of broadcast and or journalism, whether it's print or any kind of signal, right?

And the two things are, one is journalistic integrity. And the second one thing is something called called libel go look up libel kids and so I think what because You don't learn these things when you just turn on your stream or whatever You you just you could say whatever you want to say and then you end up like Tasha Kay And so I think like oh the menopause Maddie she talks about us too And so I think and so I think what happens is people just start podcasts, get cameras, get mics,

and start saying what they think and then be like, oh DJ Heads, he's being cryptic, he's not being real. It's like, no, there's such a thing called libel that I take serious, cause I'm a professional fucking broadcaster, you know what I'm saying? And so if you look up libel, you'll understand where these things and why these safeguards are in place. Yeah.

Well, I want to read some of the responses to your tweet. The tweet was, can't fake the influence. And somebody said, Junior shoots, Mind of Junior is his asset, just left the show, it was rocking. Rayo, I think this is a bot page though, cause yeah, I've noticed every time Kendrick sees a rise in popularity, Drake is somehow involved.

Take care feature slash tour. F'n problems feature. KJMC slash poetic justice promo. Control verse controversy, then the beef. We talked about that a bit. Somebody said, Pynolo 14. So unfortunately I won't be able to attend the show, so I've been living through the videos y'all post.

No cap, this show is based, just based on on video seemed like the crowd was effing lit up They tried to play with Kendrick at the Super Bowl with the videos behind the scenes I know does he have anything to prove at this point because of that. He don't even care He really don't care at all. Is he always unbothered or has he gotten to a place with this where he's in a good place So he's unbothered now If you watch the squabble up video and you look at it and you look at his face He's unbothered, has he gotten to a place with this where he's in a good place, so he's unbothered now. If you watch the Squabble Up video, and you look at his face, that's how he is.

The day Not Like Us came out, and I called him, like, hey bro, I'm going crazy, this is crazy, you want? He's like, man, he didn't even give, he don't even give a, does he have those feelings going into the Toronto shows? Like, this is nothing? It's nothing, bro. I'll give you an example.

The last show I went and seen him backstage, and we had a moment because when he got the key to the city in Compton, I was there. I'm sitting on the mayor's desk in her office. No bullshit. I'm sitting on her desk, and I'm holding this key to the city. I'm looking at this nigga, and I'm like, this shit crazy.

He was like, bro, this shit crazy. And then we was backstage at one of the shows and I was like, bro, I'm looking. I'm like, this shit crazy. He was like, bro, this shit crazy to me too. That's the reaction. It's like, yeah. He's still like, not coming to terms with it,

but it's like, man, like there's so much in front of him. He not looking at all the other stuff. He says it's the work. You put in the work. I can feel that. That just made my heart feel so warm. Because that's how I feel about life. It's the work.

When you head down and doing the work, a lot of that stuff, like when I say, even if you do feel like stop playing with me, it just doesn't matter. It's so small. None of this shit matters in real life. Wow. And he seems like- But in actuality, just remember that in hindsight, all this shit is something.

And that's what I think that people don't look at. Like your life is a story for somebody else. That's how I look at my life. So it's important to like, yeah, you got your head down, you working, but also know that take a second to take it in and say, yo, this shit crazy. You know what I mean?

That's how I feel sitting here with y'all right now. Coming from TV is so different than radio and being a journalist coming on a radio where they, especially Breakfast Club, they say and do what they want, they get crazy. I was freaking out a lot of times and he used to always just tell me, shut up. Just shut the fuck up.

Yeah, literally. Like, no, literally, like that's how he, and he thinks it's so funny. You're like, one time I call him crashing out, he just literally. Like, no, literally, like that's how he, and he thinks it's so funny. You're like, one time I call him crashing out, he just laughs. Like, no, but I just, Hatt has helped me through like some really crazy times in radio, figuring out this whole navigation
