He really retweeted that. I told you to get your jokes off last week. I told you I'd be an all-star working. Where's your chain at? Y'all just wanted to laugh. Where's your chain? On the tuck?

backstory on this monumental event that had occurred well the backstory when five young men started this foundation from a brown

a brownstone basement in Brooklyn. I mean, Harlem. One day, just bored. We started this from the ground. I can tell you the story. We started this on a sheet of paper. That's where it started.

And today, anytime one of them niggas tell the Henny Palooza story, oh man. They need a Netflix special. Them niggas make that shit sound... Title, title special. Wow. Gotta keep it in the family. I'm gonna have blogs

that can produce it, though. Justin ain't letting... What a nigga? What you talking about, nigga? No, but for the backstory of the deal, this has kind of been going on for two years. Tax was actually the first person to connect us with Ducey and Memphis Bleak and Brian and everyone over there.

But the timing wasn't right. Numbers weren't right. So we just ended up doing the tour by ourselves and keeping it. Numbers weren't right. Brian wasn't right. Brian wasn't right. Brian wasn't right. Saying an old nigga wasn't right is crazy. right That's crazy Saying an old nigga

Wasn't right is crazy But wait Who the fuck is Brian Brian man Whoever he was He wasn't right Alright that's cool Go ahead

Tell us more about the deal a year passed and uh man what's the numbers I don't know if I don't know if you're familiar with Jay-Z is that okay

I know Brian wasn't acceptable to y'all do y'all know who Jay-Z is I'm surprised you don't call him Sean I mean to y'all I don't know if y'all know him as Sean

I'm walking out of here if he start calling Jay-Z right now uh Hov texted Lenny and said why aren't we working with the Henny Palooza guys so then Lenny got us

all back together and we made a deal that was fair to everybody and you guys are here to hate and I could give two shits I just don't like your wording of sentences congratulations

I congratulated you hit Bill Bill's been a supporter unlike yo I went to like the second Henny Palooza the second Henny Palooza. The second Henny Palooza ever I think I went to.

In the Browns though? Nah. Oh, you wasn't there. You wasn't there from day one. I was there day two. You wasn't there at the beginning. I'm a day two nigga. I'm a day two nigga.

Bill's been down since day two. So wait, so how does Hennessy feel about this? Y'all don't care? Interesting you say that. They are not happy and sent a pretty angry letter to the Bacardi legal team, which we're dealing with now. So I will not say anything negative about Hennessy at all.

We're just focusing on Ducey Palooza and that's it. Oh, man, Brian, you got your hands full now. Brian definitely has his hands full. Fuck Hennessy, man. Ball said that, not me. I said it. Fuck Hennessy man Ball said that not me I said it fuck Hennessy Hennessy got you

All-Star Weekend. Joe, I know you'll be out there in L.A. for All-Star Weekend. I will definitely not be in All-Star February in L.A. for All-Star Weekend.

27th. I won't be there. Tickets available at DoSayPalooza.com. Hope to see everyone there. All-Star Weekend. I won't be there. Tickets available at DoSayPalooza.com. Hope to see everyone there. All right. All right. This is the close

of that plug now. This is the close of that plug. He ain't seen me playing no theme music at the award show. He trying to sneak in the Ticketmaster.

God damn it. He was playing the Wrap It Up music. Yeah. This nigga would not wrap it up. How long ago did you buy the website? Long time ago.

Like around the first time we were talking two years ago. This has been in the works, my nigga, for two years. This ain't nothing new. Yeah, Brian just wasn't right yet. Yeah. The deal with the numbers

wasn't there. Brian got right. The numbers. And then they got there. The numbers was right. How were the numbers with Complex? How'd that go?

If we talking deals. Oh, wait. Let me turn this off. Because Star got that bad. I don't know. Star eating. I don't know if Joe Budden eating, but I know Star is. You guys call each other friends?

I didn't even want to talk about the Duce shit because I know they was just going to hate off rip. And I'm not taking the bait. I retweeted it. I'm not talking to you. I retweeted it. Wait, what? Who's hating?

You. You. You're a hater. Oh, Parks. Okay, Parks. Let's see what's going on. Listen, I support the move. And I will not be at All-Star weekend.

But I will be checking someone's Insta Live to see what's going on. Thanks, man. What else is going on in the world? Oh, you jumped right to... Yeah, that was my segue. We don't need the segue there just yet. Moe, why we don't ever find out none of the OVO shit from you? I try telling y'all niggas all the time I'm not OVO.

You keep running with this I'm OVO thing. No, you're OVO. I got me a couple guys over there I fuck with. Call Joe when his phone pops up. He's gonna say mall OVO, so that means you're OVO. It does say that in my phone. Still? Yeah. Okay. I never changed it. No, a couple guys over there I fuck with.

Good guys. Brian? Any of them Brian? No. No Brians. Yeah, no Brians. What's up, man? How you feeling, man? You all right? I'm cool, man. Let's see what's up with y'all.

What'd you think of the song? Excuse me. It was dope. It was dope. It was cool, right? This nigga here is funny. Yeah. That's what you got?

This nigga here is funny. That was dope? It was dope. I was just trying to feel the room out. Just trying to what you got? That was dope. It was dope. I mean, I was just trying to feel the room out. Just trying to see where y'all was at.

They're all good records, though. I didn't hear the second record. He was doing a little Migos ad-lib impression on the other record that was kind of

uncomfortable to me. Or the Lil Yachty Broccoli song. Yeah, yeah. Which I feel like Drake's been trying to catch that flow for a while.

This one's probably going to hit, though. Because he did that on More Life on the last record that was kind of broccoli-ish. I forgot the name of it. We young thug. But I think this one will hit. I got to hear it out around people rather than just my living room. It looks like people are feeling that record. I love diplomatic immunity because I like when Drake raps.

And I thought the shot was great and clever. And I'm glad that he made it seem like y'all were friends and then did the shot. I respected that more than anything. That's the okie doke. Chest move. Listen, I would just like to rewind the tape and tell y'all when I said Drake and Joe was going to dance, I tried to tell him. That was him asking for a dance, by the way, if you didn't know that. I don't know if you accepted the dance or not. He definitely accepted it.

Wait, wait, wait. What kind of dance was that? Accepting the dance. Wait, wait, wait. All right, this just took a turn. This just got interesting. He was asking for a dance. What are you talking about?

What am I talking about? I'm talking about what the world is talking about. He asked you for a dance. He on the dance floor. You still sitting there. How many records you need to play? How many songs need to play? How many songs you need to play

before you get up and dance, man? You're not saying that. Okay. Well, first of all, you're kidding right now. I said it how many months ago.

But you are joking right now. I'm not joking. Seriously. He's asking for a dance. Listen, but in Joe's defense, Joe was break dancing on the top of his head

for six months. Dancing and Drake would not even come to the venue. Well, yeah, that is true. You was Showtime on the train. That is definitely true. Joe was dancing for a while by himself. He was fucking, he was Usher in the My Way video. I was at the prom, my nigga.

He was. On the floor. Killing the dance floor. Took pictures and everything. Now I'm out of school how you trying to dance with a nigga that's gone but let me just say

let me throw this out there I do not think that's what that was huh I don't think that's what that was at all maybe my interpretation is all

how do you think that Jealous One's envy was you that was 100% a diss okay and what is what is this who is he talking about budding? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this?

What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this?

What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this?

What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this?

What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this?

What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? How? I've seen budding careers turn into just sitting around talking about other careers,

judging their peers. Where's the diss? I mean, I see what you're saying. Tell me where the diss is. That whole bar is a diss. How? It's true.

The tone. This is our usually true, though. I don't see where you're going here. Him saying I've seen budding careers turn around and start judging other careers, I mean, that shouldn't be a surprise or secret to anybody. He clearly said how he felt about my career on No Shopping when he said there was promise there and you fell flat on your fucking face. Okay, that was a diss, right?

Yes, same sentiment. So this is not a diss right yes same sentence is not a diss no it's not a diss okay i've seen blood careers turn around start judging other careers do you think someone could interpret sitting around judging other people as a good thing there's a little bit of salt i didn't i didn't know that i didn't know that you should judge it anyway there was some salt in the bar there's a little bit of salt. I didn't know that. I didn't know that you should judge it anyway. There was some salt in the bar. There's a little bit of salt in there. A little bit? It was heavily salted. Half a bottle of Lowry's in that bar.

What the fuck are you talking about? Kids don't know. Y'all niggas don't know Lowry's no more. I know Lowry's. I know Salt when I see Salt, man. All right, well, let me just say I didn't take it that way. It's okay. I took it as, first of all, and let's just dig deeper into this a little bit, which I didn't plan on doing.

He can't be asking me to dance two years after a dance. You can. This is where you fell on his list of priorities. Who? He didn't feel like responding to you at that moment. A lot of people have asked you to dance way after the fact, by the way. Like? Jay-Z.

Jay-Z didn't want to dance. In like 2010, he wanted to dance. That shit was crazy. Jay-Z did not want to dance. He's still on the dance floor. Who? Jay. You think Jay want to dance?

Yes. With me? Yes. Wait, am I in the fucking bizarro world? No, man. What are you talking about? Jay text you? No.

Then what are you talking about? I'll ask him. He want to dance, man. Niggas want to see if you still got your dancing shoes, man. I don't know if we should be pausing this. I don't know if this is for content. I don't know what to believe anymore. What you mean?

No. There's no smoke between Jay and myself. I'm not saying there's smoke. There's not smoke. But it's definitely a- He don't want to dance. He just do like six years after the fact. He dissed me mad times after the fact.

That was crazy. That has nothing to do with today. It's not beef. It's not beef. I think you're thinking beef or an issue, which is not that. It's just like, let me see where you're pinning at. Let me see if you still...

But Hov is not rapping, really, today. He just put out an album. What do you mean he's not? He just put out a whole album and did a whole tour. I mean, that was kind of like a poetry album. I'm not that self-absorbed that I think. There's no reason for me to think that he wants to dance with me. I mean, that's fair.

I'm not an artist. And I certainly don't think Drake is trying to dance with me two years after the fact. He might be trying to dance. He just sent a shot. He's inviting you to the dance. He's not saying let's dance when we get there, but I'd like to see you at the party. Drake got on the shiniest pair of Versace's ever waiting for you right now. Even after he DM'd me? Yes.

That was a chess move. And told me that he supports me? Yes. He still supports you and still want to dance? There's nothing wrong with that. I think you think you got to be beef. Like, it's not,

it don't have to be beef. I'm not dancing, but I'm not, I'm no longer dancing, though. Okay. I'm retired from dancing. Okay. My feet are done.

Well, I mean, you got to come back for the tribute show or something. It's a fact. And I believe that the next line, and that's another reason I don't take it like a distant line right after that,

I believe is directed at Act. Oh, that was a thousand percent directed at Act. What did he say? Oh, you niggas contributed none of this here. I cover my ears. Yeah, knowledge from people that contributed to none of this here. Ah, okay. Yeah.

I don't think that was to me either. So, I mean, I don't know. No, I think that was a clear shot at Act. I don't take shit so personally like the other rappers do. You don't think it was towards Nadeska? I mean, I don't know. Just curious. Throwing shots in Nadeska is fucking crazy, by the way.

That's crazy. Star did it. Star's crazy, bro. That was wild. That was crazy. That was a wild, wild clip. I was offended. But wait, I don't want to move to that just yet.

I just want to make sure that we are properly closing this diplomatic immunity record that everyone seems to like. Good record. Really good record. Do we have any thoughts about this not being released exclusively anywhere? Yeah, it was on everything right away, right? Yes. Any thoughts on that? No.

No? I mean, after the freestyle with Wayne on the Family Feud shit, obviously talking to Apple, it is something to be said that this was not an exclusive. Which I'm not sure what his deal with them is, like what he can and cannot do. Might be over. You got to get Brian, my nigga. Yeah, Brian. I can ask Brian. Yeah, let Rory and Lo get them numbers straight on that deal.

I could have worked out Complex for you, bro. You should have just asked me. Thanks. Me and Brian could have went up there. Thanks. Got you what you wanted. Thanks, Rory. No, I think there is something to be said about that going out on everything and not just Apple Music,

especially after the shot he just took at Apple on the last freestyle. Y'all just attributing shots everywhere. Yeah. Everything. That's a deep dive. Yeah. That's a deep dive. What?

But, I mean, it might be. Putting music out everywhere? Yeah. None of the shots at Apple correlating to putting music out everywhere. I mean, I could see why people would think that. It's not far-fetched. So this guy's gearing up to drop an album when?

I have no idea. I wonder if that'd be a moral question. That's a moral question. It's a brain question. I can't believe that you think Hovold wants to dance still. You do because you still brought it back up.

You still think about that. His foot's tapping. Only because you say it it Because I really believe that You're savvy No but I really believe that though So that's why And it's not beef It's not

No no no It's not beef Of course not But I 100% think He would entertain Going on a Back and forth If you said something

He would say something back Would you say something though No Bill No No I know you're talking But that's back and forth. If he said something, he would say something back. Would you say something now? No. Bill. No. No. I know you're talking, but that's.

I don't dance. I don't dance no more, bro. That's crazy, man. The dancing is over with. Your waltz was one of the best. Everyone's probably sad about that. I'm sad, man. I'm sad.

Thank you, guys. Really appreciate it. So what I will ask you gentlemen is this, right? and can we try to have a fair and objective conversation always always that's not trash that a nigga does does that two years two years after yeah it's trash come on maul is it trash come on maul but here's the thing though i don't drake would say it's trash and again no but okay so you say it's trash here's just me thinking he killed me for taking too long okay but here's here's what i'm thinking you're pretty you're pretty hot right

now this is probably the hottest you've ever been in your career or right along the same lines when your debut album came out big single big record was out no this is probably now okay so pause you're bigger now right yeah so drake probably feels like this is the, you know, this is a better time to kind of throw that shot. You did say that the dance would happen when it's time for him to release more music. Yeah, and not only that, it's just at the time, he probably just felt like you weren't, you didn't warrant a response yet. Because he felt like he was so big and was like, it's not going to really be fair if I go at Joe right now or if I go at Joe right now

I'm giving him light I'm making him hot he went at me though yeah but it wasn't it didn't make me hot it was I'm just saying but now

if this if this type of if this type of ball it hurt everything I was trying to do right but if this type of ball would have came out

back then it may have warranted a little more like hmm it would have been more interesting. If Wake comes out today. Well, yeah. If Afraid comes out today.

Yeah, but you dropped the groceries on that. You put out way too much music way too quick. Yeah, but it was surgical, though. Yeah, but it was still like, you know, you bust a clip and there was nobody on the block. It's like, my nigga, save some of those for when them niggas come back. But I went to the block. But nobody was there. So?

You can't air out the block and nobody outside. Nigga, what type of shit is that? That don't count. That don't count. It got to be a cookout. It got to be a pool party, something. It got to be niggas somewhere on the block when you air it out. I disagree with that.

It got to be a basketball game, something. No, no. If you went to the block, though. And we're all upstairs in the house chilling and we just hear shots and we come downstairs and nobody's there with a it's only shells on the floor it's like nigga that don't count you gotta air it out when we and when we having to cook out that's when it counts that i put on such a surgical performance and it doesn't count but because because another gentleman wasn't ready to receive. No, no, no.

That's not why I say that. I say that because you let too many... Because I was whack. No, no, no. You let too many clips go. If you were to let one of those clips go, boom,

and just let it sit, like, all right, cool. But you let clips go like it was a back and forth. It was like... I don't waste time. I still think we should have stopped after the second one,

but it's cool. It was what it was. I think Afraid should have ended it. Because it came out the day after No Shopping did. I just want y'all to admit you're biased. And if anyone else wanted to dance two years after the fact, y'all would. In this climate. And if you wait for a nigga to get hot a little bit, come on.

Come on. I respect that more. I respect it more when a nigga that's coming at me get hot and then I. Come on. I respect that more. I respect it more when a nigga that's coming at me get hot and then I go at him. I respect that more than when you not hot

to just be going at you because then it's like I'm supposed to kill you. I'm the hottest nigga in the game right now. You're not hot. Now when you got some momentum, it's like,

okay, let's dance now. I respect that more. That's crazy. Like you can't play a nigga one-on-one who is only like, what you mean? nigga one on one who's only like what you mean

that's new that's not new that's kinda that is new you gotta go at niggas when they hot nah that's not true that's not true

everybody killed 50 after how to rob everybody Eminem was dissing Benzino yeah when he was at the top that was personal shit though yeah

that was personal shit yeah but the 50 wasn't everybody went at 50 every single person that got dissed on How to Rob went back at 50. When 50 was nobody. When was 50 nobody? When How to Rob came out, he wasn't really. It wasn't nobody, but he wasn't 50.

Yeah, but then 50 went at. But that was the small guy shooting at the big guys first. And niggas knew who 50 was. I'm not saying his career was, but they knew who 50 was. LL clapped at Cannabis. But I don't even know what we're arguing anymore.

You're saying it took two years for him to throw a shot at LL? LL waited two years to clap it. That's what I'm saying. I agree with you. Nas waited man long after TakeOver. It wasn't no two years to clap it. I know, that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. I agree with you. I agree with you. Well, Nas waited man long after TakeOver. It wasn't no two years.

It was a while, though. Three months. And remember, remember people, we're having this conversation just like kind of hypothetically because I still do not believe that this was an invite

to the dance. I don't. I just think it was a play on words when you're clever and witty. That was an invite. Listen, he was the bigger artist, so he was really the one calling the shots on whether he was going to and witty that was an invite listen he was the bigger artist so he was really the one calling the shots on whether he was going to give life to that or not right now you are the talk of every fucking thing for the past six months yeah i might say something now's

the time for me to say something i respect that i'm saying i'm not saying that act is new i'm just saying i guess respecting it is new kind of like when we started respecting the nigga that got shot. Like, that's like that. That's like that to me. I mean, I don't care. I still like the record. I like the record and I don't think it's an invite to a dance and I don't dance anymore. If Drake would have put out a full

diss record to you now, that would be kind of corny to me. Then my feelings would have been hurt. Then I would have felt a little shot. Then I would have said, damn, my nigga, you're going to DM me and then turn around. And like, damn, that's craziness. I do not think that in the current state, in the current climate, that he did that and did that. I just don't feel like that. Oh, now the Black Excellence Bar.

Who is that bar at? I miss that bar. I would say Puff, but they've been hanging out together a lot lately, too. And I wouldn't say Puff. Who would you say? Ove? I mean, if we had to assume, we would only ever assume one of those two gentlemen because none of us are excellent but them. Well, or black.

Well, I'm black and I'm excellent. I don't know what you two niggas are talking about. Yeah, I'm black. No more. We already told you you like black satisfactory. I don't care what you niggas tell me. I'm black and i'm actually i don't know what you two niggas are talking about yeah i'm black no more we already told you you like black satisfactory i don't care what you niggas tell me i'm black excellence man all right fine i'm not gonna play see all this melanin dripping you see this melanin right here it's black gold right there you're all forearm out of my face what you talking about uh but now i know puff has been vocally saying it more. Hov's album was obviously, that was a theme. So, it could be the either or. I mean, of course, the Drake

and Hov shots have been going back and forth for three years now. Puff and Drake have been going on Instagram dates for the past month. So, they look like they're really good friends. So, I don't know if that would be directed at him. I mean, he just DM'd Joe and then dissed him, so. Chke smart chess moves you know it's fine there's another reason i can't really

take that uh drake shit as a diss because when you dis a nigga you can't have that that tone like that tone was real that that tone and the braggadocious style in which he rapped what do y'all what do y'all think about that? The last few times... You never heard Charged Up? I've heard Charged Up. And Lade Back on that. Yeah, and it was as effective.

It was as effective as that. You don't think that was effective? I don't think Charged Up was really effective. It was the setup. Yeah, that was like the DM. It was effective i don't think charles that was really effective it was the setup yeah that was the trick that was like the deal no it was effective it was like it was effective because it was a setup in that see check the temperature where meep was at all of that listen drake raps about too much rich nigga shit now like all of that just went to see solana the other night she bodied the performance she's a natural i hate

first of all i know drake Googled SZA's real name. I know he didn't just know her name. I didn't know that was SZA's real name. Who knows SZA's real name? So y'all just said that. I just said it, and I still don't know. I don't even know what that name was. That's Drake's thing, though.

He always called girls by their government name. Are you sure? Are you sure that was SZA? Are we sure? Before we dissect the bar and say the wrong thing. Let's just make sure he wasn't talking about some artist we don't know about and he just put us

on the artist and we bashed him first of all Twitter told me that was Scissorhands Solana there it is right there

yeah according to just went to see Solana that girl is amazing we know Drake we all bought her album we can love it was a thing

you're like you missed this this wave what else he said on there? He said something about Robin's favorite Italian restaurant. Yeah, come on, man. Just went to eat at Castellanos. They have the best pepperoni in me bar.

Like, stop. Castellanos, funny. Wait, wait, what did he say? Definitely went to eat at Castellanos. What record was it when he called the clams to die for? Yeah, yeah. That was a great line. it when he called the clams to die for? Yeah, yeah. That was a great line. Yeah.

And when are clams to die for? I don't know about clams, but I know it's a bowl of cereal at the crib waiting for me right now that's to die for. I can't wait to get back.

A bowl of cereal. For sure. I'm starving. Cocoa Puffs? Hungry as a... Huh? Cocoa Puffs? No, I never was

the Cocoa Puffs guy. Really? I don't like the cereal that turns your milk into chocolate milk. I was never that guy. That's fine. Yeah. That's a weird thing to hate.

Yo, Moe is so bougie with what he hates. Yo, just think I don't want the milk to change color. Yeah, I didn't like it because I never was the guy that just, you know what I'm saying, like just drank the bowl of milk after. Like I was never that guy. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You don't drink the milk? Nah.

Because it's weird because I'm really lactose lactose i'm really not supposed to wait wait almond milk or something wait everybody just shut the fuck up you're not eating cereal and not drinking the milk you gotta drink the milk i i just i just refilling until the cereal milk was gone so why are you why are you eating cereal what do you mean it's crazy you're not drinking the milk no what i do is i just i refill not i refill the cereal not the whole like to the top a little bit yeah a little bit i mean that move too that's a great move you don't need to do that if you drink the milk i do both i can't just drink the milk straight i can't do that you pour the milk first or cereal cereal what kind of psychopath

yeah you don't even know what type of yeah what gotta get the right ratio you gotta it's a milk to cereal ratio some people think that they can get the right ratio by pouring the milk let me tell you something if you watch if you ever see sin make a bowl of cereal you'll never eat cereal again she put all type lemons she put all types of shit in a cereal. Making raisins. You got to pour the cereal first and then pat it down so it crunches. It makes room for the milk. Yeah. And then pour the milk.

Yo, now that I think about it, last time we had the cereal talk and y'all tried to shit on Frosted Flakes. Frosted Flakes with bananas? Who tried to shit on that? That definitely wasn't me. That's one of my favorite bowls of cereal. Yeah, I don't know if you hated Frosted Flakes. I just think you had it rated as the best cereal ever. That's one of my favorite bowls of cereal. Yeah, I don't know if you hear about Frosted Flakes. I just think you had it rated as the best cereal ever.

That's one of my go-tos. Frosted Flakes with bananas is probably the go-to on a Saturday morning. That's a top three cereal. That's a top three mix. With the bananas? The bananas changed the whole game. Frosted Flakes with bananas and peanut butter and jelly is like classic. That's golden.

That's like right there. Oh, I ain't going to lie. Now I'm going home to get Frosted Flakes with bananas. You got to. You got to you got to that's a go-to move that's a that's yeah

we need to do like a list of the go-to goat hood meals it's amazing you know what I think I think I think I found out

Moe already shitted on one of them what the ramen ramen yeah you got ramen I'm not eating astronaut food on earth guys I'm sorry you know it's funny

he shitting on ramen but before ramen it was spam like in the 80s, and they totally did away with spam. Spam is nasty. I've never ate spam in my life. Spam is nasty. I've never ate spam in my life.

Do you like corned beef? Yeah, I do like corned beef. It's not the same thing. Corned beef hash and spam is not the same thing. I've never eaten spam. Yeah, there's no way you're about to tell me that it's the same shit. I've cracked a can of spam open just to see what it is. I don't even care if y'all are right. I'm not going to tell an Irish person that corned beef is spam. I don the same thing. I've never eaten spam. There's no way you're about to tell me that it's the same shit. I've cracked a can of spam open just to see what it is.

I don't even care if y'all are right. I'm not going with it. Yeah, corned beef hash and spam, no. Not the same. I think spam is all the shit that they couldn't sell. Like the meat parts that they couldn't sell, I think, is what's the same. Yeah, it's just pig butts and fucking teeth and shit. You saying pig butts like black

people don't eat chitlins and way worse shit than some pig ass ass yeah i was never the chitlin guy either me neither i hate chitlin all right whatever uh all right back to that back to this drake shit real quick yeah because i don't know that's what that's what i think is gold about us we can just say something and that shit will spring another conversation about some shit we went from casio lanos which is not even a real place it's not it sounds like a great restaurant i'm ready i'm ready to get reservations there now but we went from that to frosted flakes and bananas now you know what's funny still still niggas hit me about joe berg and china joe berg and china joe been a fire. When you said that, it sounded like the fire law firm.

Joe Berg and Chyna is funny. Back to Drake and SZA. I mean, not Drake and SZA, but Drake and SZA. What do y'all think about J-Lo disses? Wait, first of all, how is that a J-Lo diss, but yours wasn't a diss? Yeah, it wasn't a diss. I'm using the word loosely now. I don't think that was a diss either. That was him being hurt.

I like the way he flipped that. A-Rod a damn trip had me. I like't think that was a diss either. That was him being hurt. I like the way he flipped that. A-Rod-A-Damn-Trip had me. I like that. That was clever. Wait, what did he say? Tell me. It was A-Rod-A-Damn-Trip had me front page. Roy, I'm trying to hear the lyrics. Excuse me. I am trying to hear.

And you just keep interrupting with some doosay shit. Come on. On some doosay shit? Yeah, so we're not talking about do say right now. I do say so myself. A-Rod or damn trip. What was A-Rod? Like, that was a clever play on words.

I'm trying to understand it, but Rory's interrupting with shit like, if I do say so myself. Rory, no, seriously, Rory, you better not, I better not ever catch you. No, no, no, seriously,

I better not ever catch you tweeting that. I better not ever catch you sayingeting that I better not ever catch you Saying that Yo all the Henny Palooza niggas Tweet really corny Wack shit They do

But I hold Rory to a different Like If Rory tweets If I do say so myself I'm about to tweet that shit Right now If I do say so myself That was

I was trying to hit the bar It was funny when I heard it And it's still funny now But I don't want Rory tweeting that Please God Wait you heard that want Rory tweeting it. Please, God. Wait, you heard that before Rory dropped it just now? That was a J line.

Oh, you can say it if you own it. It's different when Rory is saying it. That's true. Even I'll agree in my confidence today. This thing is crazy, man. Back to you, Aubrey. A Rotterdam trip that was a good line I like this Prego

Prego sauce line that was hard I like the May tagline that was hard he's got the triple sub Tondra the ODB shout out was hard too though a lot of people didn't catch that they got my money like Osiris.

That shit was hard. Truth be told, the Joe Budden, this was the whack part. That was clever too. I thought it was clever. It was cute. I'm hating. That was dope. It was kind of cool.

I'm hating a little bit. Academics seem to be very excited. Do y'all know academics, man? Academics is happy to be here. I'm happy to be here, but I'm not going to be happy about it. You know what I mean. It's happy to be up in the mix. Yeah, I guess.

Again, when your favorite artists are mentioning you. Yeah. And this is the other thing about act. And unfortunately, I can no longer help act because you're just powerless over the decisions people make but I want some shit with him and this Takashi kid again yeah

that was a little weird it was up at Complex Complex is in the Yahoo building for those that don't know now they moved they moved into the Yahoo building

and Takashi and Ack are in there and I don't know Takashi takes his chain off puts it around Ack are in there. And I don't know. Tekashi takes his chain off, puts it around Ack. Wait, this really happened? Yeah.

But I think today, and I'm old and washed, so I don't know. But I think that's how you sun niggas today. Put your chain on them? Yeah, that's weird. So I don't know who said it. Bills could tell me when things like I put chains on my shooters. Somebody is saying that one of these young kids.

So that's what you do. It's like it sounds like a sign of respect. No, put a chain around your shooter. So wait, good looking for shooting people for me. Here's a chain. Ack is the shooter.

Well, Ack is not the shooter. Ack is your shooter. Listen, justck is not the shooter. Ack is the shooter. If Ack is your shooter, listen, just stay in the house. But I'm saying if you are attempting to sun someone, then it was almost like the nigga that used to go to the store for you. Yeah, there was nothing wrong with somebody going to the store, but damn, you going to go to the store for a nigga? Damn, you going to shoot a nigga for a nigga?

I think it's the same premise. Again, I don't know because I'm out of touch, but I think. Just a random thought from Joe. I'm not letting no man put a chain on me. I was. Yeah. I mean, I get it. Well, what if it was a Rockefeller chain?

I can put it on myself. Then hand it to me. No, if it's yours to keep, that's different. That's true. You know what I mean? If it's yours, you're going to put it on a Then hand it to me No if it's yours to keep That's different That's true You know what I mean If it's yours You gonna put it on a nigga And take it off

That's a little nutty Yeah taking the chain back Off of someone And then you keep asking him Can I have it It's like I'm uncomfortable now That wasn't mine to keep

Yeah like Can I have it Can I have it Can I have it Call someone an Indian Give him the chain Come on You got a little bit more

You know what I mean I just want to see At get his shit off one day. Just talk his shit, man. I try to guide him there, and I try to give him all the advice that I can give him. But at the end of the day, you got to let people be. You know, Ack, it's 26, 27, man. I'm giving that nigga old, old, old nigga game. Like, shit that works when you move a little different.

So, I support him in his journey. But back to Aubrey. I want to know what these niggas going to do when I get mad. Oh, God. What's going to happen when you get mad, Joe? I'm going to turn green. Yeah. In podcast?

Niggas never laugh when Lou Ferrigno turn green. I don't know. I don't know. Yo, Candyman, Lou Ferrigno. green. I know. Candy man. I'm getting disrespected out here. Say candy man. I tried to call Parks this week. He was sick. Couldn't get a bar off.

I wouldn't rap now anyway, but it's just fun to talk shit. I do think, okay, let's just rush to the room. Let's take a poll on when you think Joe is going to actually put out a verse or music. I say in another month. A month?

No, I don't think so. Yeah. 2018. I'm going to say in 2018. I'm going to say in another month. I mean, whenever I just pull something out and put it out. I was going to say,

we could just leak some shit. More must know that the whole dance record is dropping. The whole dance record. I just can't put a life in me. I don't understand why you want it. Thev dance record is dropping. The Hov dance record. I just can't for the life of me. I don't understand why you won't. The Hov dance record sounds weird.

I just don't understand why you won't. Why I won't dance? Yeah, why you won't just, you know what I mean? Why you won't? You do it. I don't rap. Me neither. No, you rap.

No, I don't. You rap really well, too. I don't understand why in this climate you wouldn't just. I'm cool man Your demand is at an all time high I never rapped Cause I was in demand No but I'm just saying

Clearly But I'm just saying Now that it is You gotta capitalize man No I'm not into capitalism man Shit Yeah alright You into capitalism

You into capitalism Whether I know it or not right Yeah whether you know it or not You into capitalism Listen man I it or not you're into capitalism listen man i'm trying to dissect this fucking disrecord if vince carter is still playing ball you can still rap yeah i'm just that's just my theory if he can still be hooping you can still be rapping vince could still dunk you can still rap i'm chilling okay back to arbury uh anyway all right so what do y'all want what do y'all want to talk about next there's a lot going on

oh well just to note they just put this out that Drake just broke the US Spotify record for most streams in one day that's another shot at Joe yeah Joe's not on Spotify you ain't on Spotify you ain't breaking no streams you ain't even been in a stream

yeah nigga I am probably a top five streamed act right now, though. What? Or for the year 2017. Of your music? I'm not making music. Oh, well, we're talking about music-based streaming. See, I'm not.

My conversation is always about streams. Every week, I'll come in here and talk about streams and it has no difference. It ain't no difference. I'm talking about streams. They want to keep saying music. Are you saying a YouTube view is a stream? That's a stream. It is a stream.

YouTube is a streaming service. They're all streaming services, nigga. It's a little fucking joke. Anyway, alright, so cool. Let's hit a round of applause for Aubrey, man. I mean, black excellence, cool. All right. Well, shit, let's hit a round of applause for Aubrey, man. I mean, black excellence, nigga. Jewish excellence.

L'chaim. Shalom. They're going to shoot one of y'all names. Y'all keep playing around. All right, so what else y'all want to talk about? Y'all want to talk about Monique. Y'all want to talk about Everyday Struggle. Star.

Yeah, let's get right to the Everyday Struggle, man. All right, I'll stop the applause. Listen, man, listen. That shit is not going to last. I'm sorry. I love Star. He's a legend. He's the original disrespect king, but that Complex can't.

They're going to lose too many relationships fucking with Star. And they care about Their relationships Star is He's too much for Complex You think so? Way too much I don't think he can have a guest

Like who He's way too much for Complex He's way too much For that platform Star is just Yeah it's a fact He's way too much But he's way too much

For Complex Here's where Complex Might be able to win On the radio It was very difficult To edit And we never knew what Star was going to say. This is all edited. If Star does some real wild shit that would fuck up a sponsorship dollar, they can easily edit that out. I don't know how long they're going to want to continue to do that, but it is different than Star on the radio.

Like that Aaliyah clip never getting out on Complex because it can be edited. Yeah, but he's, and it's just like, academics gotta just, he just gotta be a man. Like, you can't sit down and just let a man talk to you the way

Star was talking to academics. I'm sorry. Like, I get Star, that's his thing. He's the disrespect king, but like, come on, academics. You gotta, that's just,

it was uncomfortable. Like, I felt bad for academics listening to that's just it was uncomfortable like I felt bad for academics listening to that shit I was trying to be well that was the first episode how many episodes that's all I can go off of

this was the first episode yeah watch the first one I watched today they put one out today and it was a very different energy oh I didn't see the one today so that's why you know

alright what I will say well how do you feel about it Rory before I I enjoyed the first episode that I saw but I don't think that's something I could watch every day. It was funny for that first shit to see Star be Star against Act, but I don't know if that's something I can watch every morning. And I was, not to cut you off, I was looking forward to it one time, because that was one of the guys, when we had to talk here, I told you, I was like, they could put Star in that seat. Yeah.

Because I thought Star would kind of, you I mean but he was he's star and it was like but it it's it became almost like cringeworthy like just hearing him talk to academics the way he was I was like damn like yeah but I mean like that shit was uncomfortable to listen to after a while I was like come on my nigga I can't you telling another man he want to fuck a nigga or you want him to fuck him and you want to suck his dick it's like your dog I can can't, like, that's just, that's like, and that's Star, though. So I can't be mad at that,

but it's like, I can't watch that. It could change because Star is one of the most talented media personalities. I don't doubt that it could change, but with Joe, it just felt more of like

the first take debate show where we could really sit and talk about what's going on in hip hop. This just kind of feels like Star. Well, Joe is a balance of being Star to academics, shock value.

And the way, the way star used to treat people that would call in the hot 97. That's what that would be different from your cohost though. That's what I'm saying. To hear you talk to a cohost like that is wild. Like I was like, Oh damn, this is,

yeah. Like I'm going off one episode in his defense, in his defense. Some people would say I spoke to him, act that very same way no not not that way not that way you never so yeah you was you was talking to him more like a a big brother like like you know i'm saying like that type of thing like like tough love star was talking to him like i want you to get up and do something right now so i can knock you out

like that that's the type of energy i was like yo listen if academics, if academics get up right now, I wouldn't even be surprised. That's how I felt watching that shit. I'm like, if academics get up and walk off right now, I'm not surprised. Well, that's why I really wish y'all would have caught some of today's clip. Because today's clip was so different that... You think the producers talked to him?

Someone 100% spoke to him. Or him or well today he said he went home and he spoke to his girl or somebody and he said yo you're looking a little tense up there so it was a different energy today which means and we all know star star is a legend and star is an icon so i do believe that all people who are that great have can cut it on and cut it off so do you still feel that way even if he's cutting it on and off just for content purposes i mean i would have to go and watch the the new episode because today today i'm only going off for the first one today he said i i mis, I misread you saying that you were coming for me in pre-production. So I was prepared for it and that's how I was on it.

That's what Star said? Yeah. Okay. But that's just somebody calling him and saying, you know, Star is Star, the father of trolling. So this is never going to work. No, that's who Star was on Power and his morning show. I can't say that that's who Star is. his morning show.

I can't say that that's who Star is. He hasn't necessarily spoken as brash on his own platforms. Yeah. Not the way that he used to, which is probably smart because doing all of that got him in the position that he was in. He was blackballed for a little bit. So we had Star on our podcast. If you know anything about Complex, it just seems like an odd pairing.

If you know anything about Star. Yeah, well, they're searching for somebody that's, you know. Well, no, time out, time out. Let's be very clear. I disagree with you a little bit. Go ahead. With who, me or more? With you, as far as star being

an odd pairing for complex maybe but that show in particular following you they need another brash and and people were saying i know star is known for older like early 2000s radio star is very up on what's going on right now if you watch his stuff, he's talking about what's going on now. You're not getting someone that is not aware. At no point did I say that he was unaware. What do you mean? No, I'm saying I don't think it's an odd pairing. But I didn't even say why I thought it was an odd pairing.

I thought it was an odd pairing because of the corporate culture. Yeah, my point was, we know how Star feels about homosexuals. We know how he feels about white people. He came up here and berated you for a whole fucking hour and a half on our part. We know how Star feels about homosexuals. We know how he feels about white people. He came up here and berated you for a whole fucking hour and a half on our part. Like we know who Star is at his core unless that's not him. But if that's him, but if that is him, I'm not talking about what happens on screen. I'm just talking about the pairing of that person in complex where they hire nothing but homosexual and non-threatening

black men sidebar really quickly nipsey got in a lot of trouble the other week for saying something about that let me just point out that you can 100 recognize when white people are are hiring non-threatening black men or more homosexual men than normal. And I don't think you're homophobic to be able to recognize the difference in that. I agree. I agree. They killed him for no reason. Yeah, they killed him.

Back to what I was saying. They called him a homophobe. They called him all types of shit. And at no point did he say that. But I mean, shit. Yeah, just like they killed Genuine when he didn't want to kiss a transsexual on stage. They killed him for that. So he can't say no.

So Genuine's not allowed to say no. Right. Men can't say no. See what I'm saying? Coolio too, I think, right? Yeah. It's like, what are the parameters here? What are we going by?

You know what I'm saying? If a woman was in that position and she said no, they would have killed the guy for trying to kiss her on on stage but now when a transsexual is trying to kiss a man who's not who's a straight heterosexual male and he doesn't want to do that you kill him he's homophobic or he's he's transgender phobic or whatever the name is for that like it's like what are we talking about like what what is okay and what's not okay since everything changes all the time now yeah like i just don't i don't get it but nothing is okay yeah like you don't have to be homophobic to recognize that an office space is hiring homosexual males and non-threatening men like that's not that's not what homophobic is homophobic is nipsey walking

in there seeing that and say oh no it's too many gay and exam out yeah that's homophobic that's homophobic you know i'm saying like and he didn't do that he just recognized the room and it is what it is like i'm i'm still here i'm not mad at complex like i'm here right well i guess they were saying that and this is off on a tangent uh we'll get back to that stars in a second i guess they were saying i guess his verbiage and how he worded it oh oh that's what they were saying because he said strong black men implying that if you were homosexual you were not strong that's why i don't like okay that's that's why i don't even like the word implying i don't imply i say exactly what i'm attempting to say yeah because when you imply you leave space for people to kind of make their own decision on

what you're saying yeah but i don't think that him saying that straight men are strong says that he thinks gay men are not strong right yeah i don't i don't think that that means that but uh so back to start so that's why i say that that's an odd pairing there especially if i go back to thinking about know, what they're going to do when some corporate dollars come in. They couldn't have been thinking that. The whole hire reeks of desperation only if you're listening to what was said in the show. Star said, y'all had a whole list of niggas that y'all ran down a whole list. Y'all didn't want to get to me. And he kept saying, I'm losing money up here.

But that's a lie. that part is a lie you didn't when star was on our podcast you know his plans they were he was going at the a to atlanta the radio station i was like nigga this sounds like the move he sounded like he was done with new york done with i mean it's documented that's how he sounded that's how i took it anyway right so you don't go from that to taking a job monday through friday and say i'm losing money that's just not true but that's why there's so many different ways to attack this because damn what was my point before we was just talking about that I don't know but a while ago I asked Ian and Keeb I said do y'all think

Howard Stern could become Howard Stern today well I don't know about with the climate of sensitivity but now we're gonna be able to see it today because that question the point of that question was I thought howard i think howard

stern is one of the greatest radio personalities ever for sure right but would his journey still pan out that way in the current climate star we know what he did we know who he is and we know why he was great right will he be able to kind of shape shift that to fit what's going on today in today's climate also to respond to Rory's earlier point another reason it's a bad fit it's not a music show anymore

yeah that's what I was saying now it's not a music show now Star admittedly is a rock and roll guy Drake and Wale will tell you that act don't know shit about rap music and we know what some people think about what complex knows about rap music so now you have just a show without depth for now yeah for now not saying that they can't get it together you got to give them give them some time to gel and all of that shit but stars start telling us that they went down a long list

and he was at the bottom of it says that it's a desperation move uh that clip came that clip that came out uh when he's referring to wanting to beat off on the desk of his leg or... That was wild. That clip says that this is a desperation move. A lot about it says it's just a desperation move, but that don't mean that it can't work. Right. Yeah, that's true. Now, to that clip, that was before he took the complex deal, correct?

Wait, what'd you say? That clip was recorded prior to him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That wasn't some shit like right shortly after well i mean it's possible to change now that he knows what's at risk if he wants to continue doing that job any woman in complex could walk in there and and and and do all that sexual inappropriate misconduct harassment shit based off that one clip oh i'm you could get him fired now i mean i don't know i don't know that that affects complex at all because he's a vendor yeah but i'm just saying well no nadeska as an employee there even with a vendor could certainly

say i don't want this gentleman here listen right yeah but i think they saw that because that clip was like new year's i think i don't think they saw that clip yeah i don't i don't definitely came to relevance once he took that job well that's that's how it goes usually like you don't pay attention to shit until somebody's in a position for you to talk about them now like oh look what he said like i 100 think someone at complex heard that clip and they played it around the office before he was given that job. I 100% think that. I don't think people at Complex mixed.

There's too many people at Complex that sit online all day, every day. I don't feel like they're very in tune with the generation of stars. I was about to say, I don't think they check in. They're not that type. No, but the fact that he said Nadeska's name, they would have definitely tagged Nadeska Complex. Somebody on the internet. I don't think that was the first said Nadeska's name, they would have definitely tagged Nadeska Complex, somebody on the internet. Oh, I don't think that was the first time Nadeska heard that. I would imagine someone would have.

That's what I'm saying. I'm talking about the whole Complex staff, though. Well, if Nadeska heard it, she definitely had a conversation about it before he was hired. I wouldn't know. I can assure you all that Nadeska didn't hear that. Because that kind of leads to my next question. If you know Nadeska a little bit, you know how she felt about that comment. For real, for real.

Which is another reason I wanted y'all to watch today. Okay, so that's what I have to ask. How was the energy today? They addressed it today. The episode came out late. I'm sure they edited some shit out of there because I'm sure they turned up a little bit in the beginning. Because it still was a little awkward in the beginning. It was very awkward.

Today looked awkward. So that's why I say bad fit because if Star can't be Star and I don't think Star can be the Star that we know him to be or that he has been anyway, then he shouldn't be in that seat. He ain't the one for that

unless you are looking for clickbait or a nigga that's just gonna kill act i really hope that that's not the premise of the show that's probably i really hope they want clickbait i really hope complexes clickbait they're all click they're clickbait yes i hope the premise is not just at getting shitted on and that wasn't the case today so who am i to tell anybody what to do with their brand? Did they mention who else was on that list before Star? No, they wouldn't do that.

Okay. Well, I wasn't sure if maybe y'all knew. I know the streets had their own list. I saw the streets list, but I wasn't sure if there was actual information

that you knew who was on that list. We kind of spoke about it here one day off camera, though. Yeah. And Star was definitely somebody I thought. Fat Joe was somebody I thought. Lord Jame was somebody i thought lord jamal was

somebody i thought a lot of people said lord jamal um i said somebody like ghostface i think would be dope for that um i just don't know how much these people keep up with current hip-hop because you do have to talk about current hip-hop but i think i think that's what academics is there for for the current and i think and then they're the guys I think the show will be good depending on what you watch the show for. I think that that's what it is. If you watched it just to hear some jokes or see two niggas go at each other, then yeah, you might really enjoy this. If you're looking for a deeper dive,

at least currently, you're not getting that. The show yesterday, the Drake topic came up. They attacked each other. The Frito topic came up. Rest in peace to Frito Santana, by the way. That topic came up. They attacked each other. The Triple X topic came up, and they attacked each other. Not one time did they

talk about any of the topics. I saw a picture of Star turned around during the XXX whatever conversation. They weren't even looking at him. I mean, I don't care where he looks, but at no point did they even discuss the topics. That's all. So I'm sure that they'll do some watching back and figuring it out and getting it together. You got to give it time to grow at least.

I'm sure. I mean, I think I liked your everyday struggle from the rip, but I'm sure going back there was a growth period. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're going to need that. They got to build some type of chemistry and start to act like they like each other or at least hide the fact that they don't like each other a little better. Yeah, but it's hard to do that with somebody like Star. Because Star is going to say shit that's like, like, wait, hold up.

I mean, he's just going to come at you and say some crazy shit that's going to, I mean, anybody would react to that, I would think. You know what I mean? Academics handles it pretty well, though. I think Act needs his own show and I think Star needs his own show. I mean, yeah. it pretty well though i think act needs his own show and i think star needs his own show i mean yeah i don't know how many people would watch an academic show by himself but well it

has to be catered around him and his twitch with all these little fuckity fuck niggas that he likes they have to be catered around the shit that he enjoys then the audience will be his audience right we're gonna see how this one, but it'll be fun to watch. Yeah, I agree. I'm going to definitely check out the latest episode, though. Yeah, yeah, you should. You should.

But shit, that begs the question. I wanted to ask this before we got off of that whole star on the desk clip, though. At what point do you stuff your beliefs away for the job and the check? Everybody has a price. Which is why I'm asking, at what point do you shove your beliefs away and your morals and your ethics? You start looking at them bills on the kitchen counter.

You start doing the math. Depends on which moral we're talking about. Ain't nobody trying to be homeless. That's a fact. And it depends on which moral, you talking about. Ain't nobody trying to be homeless. That's a fact. And it depends on which moral, you know? Morals ain't gonna have me homeless.

But if Star tuned down, is he still Star? I don't think he can ever. Well, he still has his own platform, right? He still has his show. He should. Is he still allowed to,

how does that go? Is he still allowed to do his, well, I would assume because you're still allowed to do your own thing. Roy, what's on Starz deal? I'll talk to Brian about it. All right.

Let us know, man. I'll come back next week. But no, Nadeska, I'd imagine you have to look at your boss a little strange if he's comfortable letting someone say something like that and come sit next to me the next day. Well, this is what I'm saying. I think that that was a talk before he was hired. I think they had that. That's what I'm saying I think that that was a talk before he was hired I think they had that

that's what I'm saying I 100% believe they had that conversation about that clip before he was given that job okay like they would have to protect

and in this climate they would have to protect Nadeska in that way like are you okay are you comfortable let them two have a conversation but what if they didn't

what if they didn't then shit is gonna hit the fan eventually all right so are you guys are you guys are you guys giving it a time frame like charlamagne gave us i'm uh i'll give him three months i gotta see i'm gonna go a little less than three well Well, shit, Starz said two weeks. He said it. Listen, it could... Out of his mouth. I'm not believing nothing that comes out of Starz's mouth because his words and his actions are not matching.

Well, he said he might not make it past two weeks. Well, not his words and his actions. What I'm saying is what someone says on the screen, I'm not taking as the gospel especially a genius like him who i believe can turn it on and just yeah well i'm gonna say bro you say three months yeah that's just a guess it's out of nowhere i'll say two months i do want to see how it shapes up the next two weeks though that might change my prediction but but off rip i'm three months i think it could be as short as one month if it's trash they're probably gonna pull it i want i would like i would like them to get it together star has always supported me in in my in my career

like the entire way uh everywhere that he was every radio station whether big or small like he was rocking so i do hope that they get it together. And we'll see. We'll see. I won't, I won't, I can't talk about how to get it together because I'm sure some of them is listening to this podcast and that's a check. So I'm not doing that.

But I'm sure they will get it together. So let me, let me leave that and get on to some somber news. So let me let me leave that and get on to some somber news. We learned that Frito Santana passed away. Co-founder of 300 music artists himself. A lot of us are familiar with him through his affiliation with Chief Keef. So I want to say rest in peace to him. I want to send my prayers and condolences to his family,

but I want to take the opportunity to tell, you know, I say on this podcast a lot, very important for young black men to go to the doctor, to be 27 years old and die of liver failure. Was it liver, kidney? Something. He had a seizure. Something fell. It was a seizure, they said he had.

Oh, is that? They said that? The reports are saying it was a seizure. Now, they're attributing this to, of course, we have to wait for the... Toxology and all that. Yeah, for all of that. But that don't stop the court of public opinion

from saying that they attribute this to his drug usage. What do you gentlemen think? Well, I mean, we've seen this, the correlation with seizures to drinking lean and pills with Wayne. Ross had went through it at one point, I believe. I believe Tempsey, this is what he

passed from. That's my thing with lean. You have to drink a lot of lean for it to be effective. Yeah. It's one of those things again, man, where in the hood, we self-medicate a lot, but we don't realize that these are still drugs that you're putting into your body.

And we think because, you know, for the moment that it gives you this feeling of calm and relaxed and just, you know, that euphoric feeling. But at the end of the day, there's consequences to that. There's, you know, long-term effects of these drugs. And a lot of these kids are running around, you know, doing these drugs, trying to party, party and have fun, but not realizing that you know you slowly killing yourselves killing your bodies so you know it's unfortunate again rest in peace to uh frito santana prayers and condolences to his family but you know we got to get tired of saying rest in peace to young young cats you know because of drug use and unnecessary shit like a lot of these dudes are dying and leaving us before their times man i agree not to get back on that uh on the everyday struggle

shit with star i didn't like how he handled that at all but but that's that's a that's a sore spot for me that just wasn't the time yeah i agree yeah was yeah. When when someone when someone loses their their life, it's not the time to chastise them for for past decisions or, you know, it's just nice. It's it's I'm not going to say tasteless, but it's pretty insensitive to all the people that love that gentleman. So, again, prayers and condolences. I'm sure this affects many, many, many, many, many, many, many people. Sure, this affects many, many, many, many, many, many, many people. And let's just try to be more conscious and aware of health, physical health, mental health, health, period. As hip hop, I'm glad that hip hop is is it looks like there are there are a few prominent people in hip hop that are making it their business to keep that on the minds of consumers. Health. I just got my Obamacare yesterday, man.

Trying to get right. You should. You should. Good. Joe, to your point, I think this kid was definitely very vocal about why he was drinking lean. And I think in the hood there needs to be much more focus on mental health and outlets that they can go to.

Because it wasn't like something we didn't know about he said hey i can't stop drinking lean it's how i medicate myself to having lost loved ones and i think that's probably the only outlet these kids know because i'm i hate lean too i think that shit is corny but there's a real reason why a lot of these kids are doing it some are just doing it to fit in yeah some are just doing it because they think it's the cool thing to do but a lot of these kids that's really their only way to do it weed's not going to do it alcohol's not going to do it so i think there needs to probably i i don't have the answer so i'm just really speaking at this point there needs to be something that focuses on mental health in those type of communities because it's

not there and the only thing you can do is go down the block for 15 bucks and buy some lean. Which, a lot of stories end out this type of way. Can you even get lean in Jersey? Get lean anywhere, bro. And surf is always drinking lean. That's another issue. What's surf drinking lean? He was all over his Instagram drinking lean.

Surf is stupid sometimes. wish I got a follow surf do I follow surf on Instagram well he's not active now because he's you know yeah now I did I'm try drink some lean when you get out I got a trick for him I'll screw up with sir I'll fuck him up I ain't see the fucking mobile calls mom I'll fuck him up. I ain't going to. It's either fuck him up or call his mom. What you going to do?

So, yeah, again, prayers and condolences to all the family and loved ones of Frito Santana. Hopefully, we don't have to hear one of these stories. You know, it's real unfortunate because Yam's week was, Yam's day was just, what, last week? And, I mean, just the irony of it. It's a real thing, man. It's dis of it. It's a real thing, man. It's disheartening. It's a real thing, man. And we got to address it. And listen, man, you cats, if y'all need somebody to talk to, don't be too proud to talk to people and let people know what's going on, what's on your mind.

We sometimes be too prideful, man. You just got to let that shit go, man. That's my issue with this whole trolling era. Not trolling, because trolling is super, super fun. I never know when anybody's serious. That's true. If I don't know when you're serious, I don't know when to be alarmed and when I should care and when I should maybe dig deeper. Right.

We're in the era where we're all just kidding and joking and just saying shit to say it until somebody die. Yeah, that topic shouldn't be trolled about yeah if we're talking about the internet yeah tell the internet what what should and shouldn't be trolled right and they're gonna troll you right you can't tell them shit uh hopefully we don't have to hear one of these stories any anytime soon that's just the bottom line uh so what else what else is important uh the monique thing oh man monique has been on a fucking she's been doing a bunch of interviews too yeah i see she's doing her press run about about the whole thing so what the backstory is she was offered half a million from netflix to do her special and felt that she deserved more than that judging by how other comedians

do this work. I think that's the gist. She felt colorism and sexism. Netflix has a different version of the story. What's their story? Netflix's version is we were in our office minding our business rolling dice

and Monique and her people called us to see about a comedy special. Oh, that changes that. That changes some things. So he said,

they said, though, uh, none of them really thought that this would be highly viewed and sought after because she's decorated. They said, we'll have her come in to audition for the, for the staff.

I mean, that's kind of crazy. Well, to decide a rate. to audition for the staff. I mean, that's kind of crazy. Well, to decide a rate. Oh, right. Okay. But still, putting a comedian in an office in front of a bunch of people is not a way to audition for something that magnitude. Someone that's been that successful in her career, she doesn't have to audition. I agree with y'all, by the way.

Right, right. But they requested this of her upon the phone call. And she said no. Rightfully so. I would have said no she said no and then they said okay and they said they offered her 500 000 after she said no because that's what they thought the special would be worth right now i'm not saying they're right or wrong and that but that's a different version of the story. That is different. That changes a lot.

Because if you're soliciting, you're off rip, your negotiation point is off. It's off. It's off. Now, 500 grand is probably insulting. Yeah.

But what should she have gotten? I don't know. I don't know what the rate of that is. I know that Chappelle got $60 million, but that's Dave Chappelle. It's like comparing Jay to... Yeah, I don't even think Dave Chappelle or Chris Rock's name should ever be mentioned.

Yeah, that's not fair. I think Monique definitely requires at least for a Netflix special somewhere around $3 to $5 million. Based off what? Interesting. I mean, her following, her audience, her work, her body of work, things that she's done.

She's had specials before. I agree with you. To some degree. And Netflix is such a big platform. They're going to make way more than $500,000 off a Monique special. I'm going to play devil's advocate here. Yeah, but they're probably going to have to spend more, too. I'll play devil's advocate here and say, damn, what the fuck was I about to say?

What were you saying just then will remind me that monique she at least deserves between three to five million for a special well i'll ask then what size theaters do you think she does when she tours outside of just doing the club night to night shit that all uh comedians do i think she could definitely do the same size club that uh because the joint that dave chappelle did in dc that was his first theater and that wasn't oh that's what i was about to say. You based this off what? When Dave Chappelle left, right?

Mm-hmm. If I had a nickel for every time I heard somebody say, damn, I wish I could see a Dave Chappelle special, I'd be a rich man. I've never heard that with Monique. I've never heard,

damn, I'm waiting for a Monique special. Yeah, but she... And that is not to knock Monique who she said on the Sway interview that she is the most decorated female comedian alive I think she's a comedian alive not even female comedian I wouldn't doubt that

and I wouldn't doubt it either but today wait she said she's the most decorated comedian alive yes oh of all comedians alive I think she said female comedian male and female well let me find it I don't Oh, of all comedians? Oh, I thought you said... Alive. I thought you said female comedian. Wait, so male and female? Well, let me find it because I don't want to put... I don't think she said all comedians. I can't see her saying that.

Oh, she might have said female. She might have said female. Yeah, then I'm... Yeah, she might be. But even with all those accolades and everything that you're doing, if I'm Netflix, just because you have all this doesn't mean I'm going to give you a whole bunch of money and not see anything on my return. That's great and all that you're disrespected,

but I'm trying to make money here. She's been in huge movies. You know what I mean? So it's like, your numbers go up when your body of work. Maybe not for the comedy thing, but just for me to come out and do a special period, my number goes up. I mean, that's not necessarily true.

Yeah, it's not necessarily true. If I'm nominated for Oscars, I'm not... That doesn't necessarily mean anything. It's comedy. Shit. Yeah, okay. We're talking about stand-up comedy. You get nominated for an Oscar and see if you keep asking for the same bag you're asking for. No, I agree with you there, Mo.

I agree. You didn't get nominated for it. Oh, please. I watched Three 6 get an Oscar and nothing happened right after that. What are you talking about? No, no, no, no, no, no. Not that nothing happened. I'm not saying that anything happened, but I'm saying that their number definitely goes up after that. What are you talking about? No, no, no. Not that nothing happened. I'm not saying that anything happened, but I'm

saying that their number definitely goes up after that. Taraji Henson's number went up after Hustle and Flow. Terrence Howard's numbers went up after Hustle and Flow. It's a different field when it's just straight up stand-up comedy. What you're saying is a fact. If you win an Oscar, your number is going up.

You don't have to win. Being nominated, your numbers go up. When people get nominated for Grammys, their numbers go up. All of that is true. I want us to keep it on stand-up comedy because I do believe that's a different beast. You're talking about stand-up, but it's Monique. It's her, period. Once Monique shows up, in order to get Monique to show up to do something, her number goes up after being nominated for an Oscar.

Yeah, but. When was she nominated for an Oscar. Yeah, yeah, but. When was she nominated for an Oscar? Because that's kind of important too. This was a few years ago. Quite some time ago.

Precious. Yeah. Okay. It's fairly recent. Yeah, but. Huge movie. Your value is what the

market says it is. Exactly. That was also a serious role technically. She wasn't, it wasn't a comedy. And she wasn't the lead then that's not to knock her she was amazing but we talking about stand-up comedy right

and you know what and it's and it's unfortunate it's unfortunate but like today niggas don't give a fuck about your resume like crazy in the in the era of just today is will it can will someone click on it right now yeah that's really just it is somebody going who's clicking on this niggas don't give a fuck about resume today so i understand her point about what oh yeah because that was her reply to them saying uh come audition she was like what about my resume and my accolades they said we don't go off that the audition is definitely disrespectful i agree with her for that that's crazy i mean that's super the number i can't really say because i don't know what like another comic that is not dave chappelle or chris rock is making well i was i was gonna ask

what do you think someone like dl hugley should get right netflix right what does he because he did have special. Well, D-Ray said he got 5 million in Instagram comments. Now, I don't take what people say in Instagram comments as... I'm telling y'all what D-Ray said in Instagram comments. He got 5 million for what? For his Netflix special.

Which was pretty good. 5 million dollars? Or 5 million viewers? You my nigga, but I don't believe that for a second, D-Ray. Your Netflix special was shot with the canon 4d and that's still a good camera but still right d-ray my i love him we should our on a better camera let's take oh you get the secret brown's camera has it in the tuck all the time um But let's say he did get $5 million. Should he get $5 million? D-Ray? No.

I don't know. Is he hot? D-Ray shouldn't get $5 million for a comments session. Is he hot in the streets? Well, do you get it based off your ability? I know that I see his name a lot on Twitter. D-Ray is kind of hot, though. He's in social media. He has a show. He's hotter than Monique He's two girlfriends If D-Rate

Okay so let's have fun If D-Rate I thought we were having fun No we are But we're going to have more fun If D-Rate gets five million How much does Little Duval get? Uh

A hundred thousand You trying to make me How much is How much is Darnell Rollins getting? You trying to make me You trying to make me hurt people Yo Alright Mo stop Stop Darnell Rollins getting? You're trying to make me hurt people. Yo, all right, Mo, stop.

Donnell Rollins was a huge character on one of the greatest comedy shows of all time. Listen to me. I could be wrong. Today, I don't think that Donnell Rollins or Little Duvall get their own Netflix special. I'm saying if D-Ray Davis gets $5 million for a special, how much does Ashy Larry get? But D-Ray is more current right now. D-Ray is in Twitter. He's constantly retweeted.

He's in the way things are going right now. People will watch D-Ray. Bill is that guy. He bases everything on Twitter. He's on Twitter. He's getting retweeted. Listen, man. Lil Duval is getting retweeted too. I didn't say Lil Duval. I've heard that name in like five years. People view Lil Duval on the same level as them.

A lot of people don't even view him as a real comedian. They view him like a guy on social media who's just a popular social media person. They don't even view him as a comedian. Does he still do stand-up? Yeah, I haven't seen this. I mean, I know he used to. Yeah, he just did something, Lil Duval. He just had a show not too long ago.

Yeah, we are trash with our infamy. No, he did. Yo, he was just breathing. Nah, I just saw him on Twitter. Nah, he just did something, Lil Duval. I think he just had a show not too long ago. Yeah, we are trash with our information. No, he did. Yo, he was just breathing. No, I just saw him on Twitter. No, he did something. No, for real, though. It was a bunch of people at his show. I think it was like last week or something like that.

He had a show. He's still doing, he's still working. A senior Lil Duval consultant. He's still working. I mean, I like Lil Duval. I think he's funny. Okay, so if D-Ray gets fired, man, what does does mike epps get he's a bigger brand i think mike epps is a bigger brand than d-ray yeah so i don't think d-ray would feel the way right here no i'm just asking so he gets more

than d-ray mike epps yeah i would say more i don't know that d-ray got what d-ray said he got no we know d-ray didn't get five i five million I don't know I'm not gonna say that I don't know but you know what the problem is like when you're negotiating your fucking deal and Tony Rock said this on his little TMZ interview he did like why are you

worrying about somebody else's money I'm not negotiating my shit based off what somebody I'm not counting nobody else's money I'm not negotiating my shit based off what somebody I'm not counting nobody else money I'm worried about mine no no no no but I understand what you're saying but you

people do it in all like even athletes do it when somebody gets 80 million and then you look at your numbers and what you've done you're like okay if he got 80 million

it's a point to base off yeah like I can only I can only demand more than like if Paul George gets 80 million like how much do you think Kawhi should ask for you know what I mean Yeah, I can only demand more than, like, if Paul George gets $80 million, like, how much do you think Kawhi should ask for? You know what I mean?

Like, Kawhi would have to go in there like, okay, look, Paul just got $80. It's not a knock on Paul. Great player. But you would have to believe that Kawhi is going to get more than Paul George. All right, so we're off on a tangent here. No, I'm just saying, but that, because you're saying don't worry about what other people, but you kind of sort of have to gauge it that way though. You have to.

I don't have to gauge it that way, but I do understand people that do. I'm not negotiating my deals based off what other people are doing. I'm certainly not comparing myself to the top of the top of the top of the legendary.

You can't say that, Joe, because I 100% believe that if Netflix told you they were only going to give you, let's say, $10,000 a month, and you find out that academics got $12,000 a month, you would 100% have a problem with that. No, see, I don't make my decisions that way. You would have a problem with that is what I'm saying. All right, I'm deepening that. What's my predicament? How bad do I need my that is what i'm saying what what what's all right i'm a little i'm deepening that what's my predicament how bad do i need my 10 is what i'm saying right no i'm just i don't care how bad you need it you would still have a problem with academics

getting more than you no not if i need that 10 bad enough no you would take it you wouldn't turn it down but you would still voice your like you would have a problem it would come up in the negotiation 100 you can't sit here and say it wouldn't. 1,000% it would. It wouldn't. Do we have sleepers? It wouldn't. No, I agree with what Joe's saying.

I think he's being a little extremist, though. He's being a little extremist. Joe would 1,000% have a problem with academics getting paid more than him. Let's just be real. And I'm not even mad at him for having that problem. That's not a fair correlation. Yeah. Why is it not?

Because if we're talking about... No, it's not. Yo, if I'm a comedian... Rappers have made more than me my whole career. What's the difference? And you've had problems with some of these rappers

getting paid more than you. Never. Never. I've never had a problem with a rapper. Joe, if you heard somebody was getting $8,000 for a walkthrough that you know you're hotter than and your brand is bigger than right now, you 100% demand more than that 8,000 walkthrough. You telling me about me.

I have never been that way. I'm not saying that people aren't that way. Okay. But I have never moved that way. And I have been at the crackhead walkthrough price before. So, I mean, I've been there. I keep it on me. Right.

And some bum niggas. If I tell you all the niggas that have gotten a higher bag than me throughout my career. That's what I'm saying. You had a problem with it. No. Not saying you still

didn't go through the walkthrough. You had a problem with it, though. No, I guess I never thought about it because I just always keep it on me. Right. Okay. I don't know.

But she's doing an entire press run talking about what other people are making now how do y'all feel about all right how do y'all feel about she's going about it hot right now she's gonna come back for the five million now yeah that's where it differs i think in the meeting i may bring up hey i know this comedian i know you just paid this person this much money and look i'd sell out way bigger arenas in this person i I deserve more. I'm not going, that's private. I'm not going on a press run to bring up other people's names and what they're making.

She's smart, man. She's getting hot right now. When was the last time you mentioned Monique before this shit? Monique gonna smack you. Yeah, but if she'd have went out and got hot and did some other things. In this day and age, you don't get hot doing the right shit. This is the age of trolling. You get hot by doing some other shit it's a fair point but yeah but personally i wouldn't want i agree

with you right maybe high netflix let's set the whole thing up that might be a yo that'd be a crazy rollout i would not be even a tiny bit surprised if that was the rollout yeah when is the last monique stand-up that y'all watched that i watched probably the one she did for uh when she was at the um woman's prison okay she did one for the women that was locked up in one of those prisons that was probably the last one i don't that might have been her last one and i think she got busy acting i think that was i think she focused on her acting career after that but rightfully so yeah that bag is different yeah so let me ask y'all what the alternative is when you are boycotting netflix like where should she do her stand-up comedy central hbo

that's not as cool hbo ain't about being cool hbo is cooler than netflix really when it comes to comedy i know netflix is doing really... How is HBO cooler than Netflix? Their resume... I think HBO is cooler than Netflix. If you have an HBO stand-up special, that's way better than a Netflix. That's premium. That's different. It's cooler. It looks cooler.

Of course, things are changing, but I think if you asked any comedian growing up or while they were doing shit, getting their HBO special was probably at the top of their list. It's like a rock chain. How many comedians have gotten an HBO special? A bunch. Legends. Chris Rock. That's kind of my point.

You don't think Monique is a legend? Of course she's a legend. I'm saying Netflix, you don't have to just be a legend. D-Ray is not a legend. That's why I feel like HBO is cooler because that's a different It's prestige. It's like getting a BET Hip Hop Award is not a legend. But that's why I feel like HBO is cooler, because that's a different... It's prestige. It's like getting a BET Hip Hop Award and getting a Grammy.

Yeah. You'll take the BET Hip Hop Award. When was the last time you watched an HBO special? I watch tons of people who I don't even know Netflix specials. Just because it was on HBO? No, Netflix. I watch a bunch of Netflix specials. I'm saying, like like Netflix demands you wearing a

velvet dad hat that says I'm working I'm busy with three Y's suede suede in case you didn't know

swag that nigga oh man hold on man let me hit through your whole video alright well I'm just talking shit I wouldn't be watching

that shit no way it might be it might be good though see you'll start watching it All right, well, I'm just talking shit. I wouldn't be watching that shit. No way. It might be good, though. Yeah, I'll watch it. See, you'll start watching it if the internet starts going like, yo, this is crazy. Hilarious. Oh, please. You know me better than that. I watched the Cat Williams one last night on Netflix just because I've seen everybody

talking about it. And when's the last time you watched the HBO one? I'm saying, when's the last time you actually watched the HBO special? I had to think about it, but not long ago. I don't know who had it. The Cat Williams one was funny. And I still watch their, when they do like the little short,

like the shows, the variety show shits that they make. Oh, no, Homies wasn't on HBO. I think his was on Showtime. Gerard Carmichael? Oh yeah, no, that's HBO.

That was HBO? Okay, I remember that one. That was incredible. Bill Burr, one of them, either Bill Burr or CK had one not long ago. Yeah.

Yeah, I think Gerard Carmichael was the one I watched. I was thinking that was on Netflix. That was on HBO. I thought it was Showtime. Showtime was HBO? 100%. But that was the last one.

Clearly, we know what's going on. We're very in tune. Right. Listen to us. She's out there getting hot, man. You can't knock her. That's what she's doing right now. They did knock her.

Well. They're still knocking her. She's being knocked. All that does is get you hotter. This whole knocking her. She's being knocked. All that does is get you hotter. This whole thing is because she's being knocked. All that does

is get you hotter. And we sound like we're knocking her. I'm not knocking her. I want everybody to get their money. That shit coming back. I want Monique

to get the money. I want Star and Act to get the money. I want, who's the first person we talked about today? I want Drake to get the money.

What about Rory? Yeah, we're about to say Drake. Drake got the money already. What about Rory? Rory got the money too. Woo! Fuck that shit!

You heard Parks hit Rory with woo! Woo! Alright! That's a classic white guy ad-lib. Yeah, man. I appreciated that. When's y'all first event? All-Star Weekend in LA. Come egg that shit. If you get past security.

Why do I have to get past security to egg something? Because we have the whole street locked down. You can't even get to the venue. Rory is talking his shit. Rory, you going to go Hollywood on me when I DM you saying I need a plus three? I already went Hollywood. What bells you find? But everyone else, I went Hollywood.

Forget where I came from. I think I deleted my mom's number when we saw that. My boy eating different. Me sleeping different. That's a lie. I just ate mozzarella sticks right before we recorded this shit. Yeah, but that's because you're trying to remember the humble beginnings. Yeah.

No, I ain't. Fuck the humble beginnings. You're still trying to taste poverty. Yeah, word. Nah, sometimes you got to eat some ramen just to keep yourself grounded. Balance yourself. N to taste poverty. Yeah, word. Nah, sometimes you gotta eat some ramen just to keep yourself grounded. Balance yourself. Niggas don't want

no ramen smoke. You're right. I don't ever want to eat ramen again in my life. I still eat ramen sometimes. I was gonna say yes. I just made ramen. I got ramen in the

cupboard right now. I made that shit this week. Last week on like a Tuesday, shit was so good I doubled back on the Wednesday. Land, let me tell you how trash I am. How do you have leftover ramen? Why are you niggas eating

astronaut food on Earth? Who's this leftover ramen? You niggas is eating astronaut food on Earth. You the only nigga that fucking believed that Matt Damon Jupiter bullshit. You think he was on Jupiter with ramen? When you peel that ramen pack open, that shit is dry and fucking frozen and all types that's why you put it in boiling water i'm not

eating like that on earth you guys chef it up on earth i'll eat that if i you know send me to the moon or something but i'm here niggas it's crazy you are bugging i'll fuck some top ramen up i hear you bro and don't make that shit taste expensive. I opened three packs of the top ramen, took it out, put it in the water, put the little flavor to the side, and then somehow I lost one of the packets. So it was only two packets and three packs inside the boiling water. That's bad. Really problematic. No, that's not a problem.

That's better. No, it ain't. Better. No, he trying to get high blood pressure from all that sodium in the packs. We're good. He like his pressure high. I opened up a whole new pack and stole the seasoning packet out and threw it out. Wealth.

Wealth. Yeah, wealth. You could just put some salt in there. I put a little bit of salt in it. I'm telling you. You put salt in ramen? A tad. I can't tell you what I do with my top ramen.

Is this staff supposed to make the All-Star game? Wow. Look at that. My bad. Why wouldn't he make the All-Star game? Because he ain't played? He made it. Damn, Cavs trying to get short.

He should have made it. He been begging all fucking season, man. Boy, has he been. Man, these niggas, I know that they want their little All-star claws to kick in and get their little extra salary bump. But I hate when they start begging and campaigning to be an all-star. I went to three Knick games this year at the Garden. Porzingis is Monique right now. Yeah.

I went to three Knick games at the Garden. Porzingis ain't playing out one of them. And I didn't know that until I got there. Yeah, I mean, I've been on the show saying he's a great player and I think he's going to average, you know, great numbers and shit,

but I don't think he's played enough to be an all-star this year. Who's better, Porzingis, Cat, or Embiid? Embiid is better

than both of them. Yeah, but Embiid doesn't, when is he going to play? You don't know, can he go back-to-back games? He's been going. Can he go over 30 minutes? It's like, it's too much. All right, but if heid doesn't, when is he going to play? You don't know, can he go back-to-back games? He's been going. Can he go over 30 minutes? It's like, it's too much.

All right, but if he can, who's better out of those three? Oh, Embiid is, though. He's a problem. Embiid's a monster. So Porzingis would be the third to you out of those three?

Embiid might be second. I mean, no, Porzingis might be second. Yeah, I don't know the cat is better than him. All right, that Go Amazon store opened in Seattle and it was mad lines. At a store that was supposed to eliminate lines. That's not hilarious.

The lines were around the block at the Go Amazon store in Seattle where they should not have lines. Yeah. That's the world we live in, man. I'm going to go in that motherfucker and figure out how to steal some shit. That's what I was about to ask. So what? You're supposed to go in there.

You're going to walk in and they do face recognition or some shit? I don't know. You're supposed to cut your app on when you go in there and then you can just leave with whatever you want. But I'm not cutting my app on

when I go in there. Listen, I love the fact that all these stores now have the self-checkout thing. Y'all don't know how much shit I get for free now. That's self-checkout shit. If you don't read it on the first swipe, that shit going right in the bag, bro. He purposely don't read it on the swipe.

Yeah, like, oh, you ain't pick that up? Bag. Mouthwash for free. Mouthwash for the free this week. Believe that. Or you swipe it and then whatever you have in your left hand, just put that in the bag at the same time when you swipe the other shit.

They think a little Spanish dude walking around checking it is going to stop me from getting this free mouthwash. Get out of here. Oh, they definitely got the old self-checkout systems where you at.

In Jersey, you can't, the thing can't miss the bag. They feel the weight. Sir, sir, no, the mouthwash,

put it, sir, nigga, out of your pocket. No, the machine definitely catches up when you put it in the bag. Yeah, word. Definitely, but I act like I'm already scanned that. Make it out of here.

Yeah, I had the bad toothache one night, and Cyn ain't give a fuck. She just laid in the bed. Oh, sorry, baby. So I got up, drove the little 24-hour CVS down the block and shit, totally empty. I'm like, word. I'm about to self-check out. Man, new toothbrushes. Toothpaste. That shit. Like, sir,

the weight of the toothpaste is not inside. Please. That shit was causing such a commotion. I almost ran away from it. God damn, you making it hot, self-checkout bitch. Shit. You don't know what that self-checkout identifies as. Don't do that.

What I will say, though, is in more recent times, recent as in probably last year or this year, or recently like last week, but whatever, now sometimes when they go out to the supermarket supermarket put all the groceries in the trunk then back the car up to where they keep the wood outside for the free that's called taxes i have been loading up on all the wood that's outside yeah why is it outside god forbid they don't have a lock on the ice thing and you got to pay before. Having a whole barbecue here. I hate when they have a lock on shit.

They got a lock on the baby food. Like, come on, my nigga. Really? The baby milk is what's getting locked up in here? For sure. Baby milk is expensive, though. They be taking that shit. Yeah, it is expensive.

People stealing and selling it back. For sure. Like, you can get money for infant milk. What, baby food? They be right at the bar. Maybe taking that shit. Yeah, it is expensive. People stealing it, sell it back. For sure. Money for infant milk. What, baby food? They be right at the barbershop with that shit, selling that shit. Sell it.

Everything. Nigga sold me, tried to sell me frozen bacon and I was getting a cut one day. Bacon was still ice cold. I sold this nigga, just stole this. This shit was still frozen.

I couldn't believe that shit. Frozen bacon is wild. I'm trying to get a shape up fam you trying to slay me some frozen bacon he told you it defrost by the time your cut was done

I looked at him like no I was just it was summertime I was like how does this nigga have frozen bacon in the barbershop like that was the

craziest shit ever to me Maul should probably get a new barbershop I don't know I think it should stay that sounds great I think that's fine Maul what is this shit you doing

With your beard What do you mean Just letting a little fur grow A little Anthony Hamilton beard You know I think I'm going to cut it off What girl told you That it's becoming

You know that's when That's when niggas Change their appearance When some girl They like tells them You should keep that Oh I like it That's weird

You do it more often Truthfully it was because i had gained so much weight in my face i let my beard grow but now that you know to like appear smaller yeah kind of gives it a little you know like an optical illusion yeah angles the angles of it yeah you feel me see now just the other day when i said that maul be died and and his face is still big he cursed me that's not what you said died and his face is still big. He cursed me out. That's not what you said. You said my face was still big. Knock it off.

Knock it off. That's a wild sentence. Yo, do you know everything I tweet on Twitter now, people just retweet it and put your voice and say, yo, that's crazy. Yeah. That's like a thing now. That's my peoples.

Somebody memed one of your tweets and then put Maul's face over it. It was good morning. And he said, good morning is crazy. It's crazy. And it really be sounding like Maul when they do that little stupid bum shit. Bills was good, man. It was good. How you feeling?

It was good to see you last night? Yeah, man. Definitely good to see you last night. See you and your lady. That's why I was a little jealous. I ain't had no lady to bring with me there last night. Everybody was all booed up. That's the new thing for 2018 to be.

I'm trying to get there. I mean, Maul was alone. We'll see how the year goes. You could have definitely spoke to Maul and hung out with him. He was totally by himself. I had some skeletons in the building. Chill out. Oh, please. I thought I was on set of Thriller when I walked in there.

Hey, what's up, boss? I thought I was on set of Thriller, Bills. You know what's up, boss? I thought I was on set of Thriller, Bills. You know what I'm saying? There's a lot of old bodies walking around. Last night? Yeah, I had a few bodies in there, man. Say their names. Crazy as fuck.

I'm not saying no names. Should we call them? But you don't really get the urge to settle down when you're around these two cats all day? The urge? No, not the urge. I mean, I'm all for it. I think that's the narrative on me that i'm just not the relationship person but that's not that's not true though like i'm

all for a relationship i just don't i think some people just jump right into relationships and relationships with people that they just met i'm not that me yes i'm not that guy man like i just you know i take we gotta We gotta be friends We gotta be cool We gotta spend some time And get to know each other A girl had told me that too Like yo

Like this girl I was really interested in Like you know She told me like Yo we need to be friends first And I'm like I don't really like your personality I don't think that we could be friends

But we could definitely Be in a relationship Wait you didn't like her personality But you wanna be in a relationship Not friends Not as friends I couldn't be her friend But you could be be in a relationship? Not as friends. Not as friends. I couldn't be her friend. But you could be her boyfriend.

Yeah, I'd definitely be her boyfriend because it's the difference between being someone's friend and being someone's boyfriend. Right. I feel you. No, I'm the opposite though. I got to get to know you.

I got to meet the fam. And that takes a while. I'm not just jumping out there meeting your family right away. You're definitely not meeting mine right away. That's not happening. Yo, is that still a thing that like people put a lot of weight into the whole

you met my mom oh yeah anybody can be my mom i was gonna say my mom be around well no but you don't put weight into what your mom thinks of someone that you bring around see that and that's where i'm at like Like I I put a lot of weight into that Yeah me too Like cause my mom Me and my mom got that Like we cool You know what I'm saying

So she feeling the chick Then I know it's a cool chick So I'ma die I'ma never let my mom Meet nobody That's just how tight I am with my mom Nah my mom has met women

I've dated for sure But it takes It takes a while to get to that My mom just as phony as me I bring any girl I bring now She be like hey Nah I can't do nah I can't do

nah I can't do no shit my moms get fly and just start telling all the business start snitching you like uh oh yeah my moms has definitely done

the whole haven't seen you in a while to a girl I brought her out on her first time I was like ma

this is the first time you've ever met this young lady see so anybody can meet moms nah hell no. Not anybody, no.

There's women I've dated that have never met my mother. That's like a sacred thing, right? Of course. That's the queen. That mean like... You can't just bring somebody to the queen right away. I know, but once you do it, that mean like it's like official, right? Oh, yeah.

It's serious now. I use that as part of my game. I bring girls around my mom. They be like, oh my God, I met his mom. He must really like me. This nigga, this nigga Bills ain't shit, man. This nigga ain't shit. I thought that was like what it was now.

Yeah, that's what it is. Like, yo, man, everybody. Time is moving fast. Like, I meet a girl in like two weeks. I'm already thinking about like, listen, how long is this going to go? No, I will say this now. I'm ready to have a baby with her. I'm ready to get married.

Yeah, it's definitely like when you date a girl now at this age is definitely like you start thinking like can i be long term can we build like it's definitely not just like that you know i mean like i don't even have the the time the time or the headspace or the energy to just like me and my boy was just talking the other night like when he's like yo you ain't got no bitches you ain't gonna i know i don't even have the energy for that no more. I don't have the mental capacity to deal with multiple women, like, their personality. I don't.

Like, I don't even go out, I don't go out for that reason, though. Like, I'm just like, yo, I don't,

that shit, because the game is totally different now. Like, the dating game is totally different now. I think texting might have ruined

a lot of that. Yeah. Because to have, to have women, you have to text them a lot. Hold on. And that's really annoying. Dropping gems. Like, to be able to text them a lot. And that's really annoying. You need to be dropping gems.

Like to be able to text with a chick all day and then have multiple of that sounds like the most stressful thing on planet Earth. You know how hard it is to text good morning, beautiful eight and nine times in a row? And then they're going to respond. And then you got to respond. Oh, my God. Wait. I love how the young lady is peeking over the window space right there.

Like, she looks like a sand crab. You know when the crabs put their eyes out of the sand and just like, all you see is their eyes? Like, that's all you see over there right now. It's like, oh really?

Okay. Mad eyes and forehead. Mad eyes and light from the phone on the face. Smiles and shit. Is she recording this? I don't know what she's doing, but something is happening.

I don't know what's happening, but something is happening. God. Yeah, but nah. But dating is different now, man. You gotta's it's too much man i'm looking to settle down man i'm trying to be like joe i'm trying to go on um on double and triple dates with y'all and shit man bills i think i started following you in 2006 and you've been saying that since 12 years i think this is the time that i'm ready I'm really ready to settle down So that means that shows you

I'm really like that It's the women There's something wrong with the women It's not me If I'm really like that Then I keep having bad luck I'm rolling I'm rolling with you

There's definitely something wrong With the women Exactly At first I thought it was me But I owned up to my truth I try to be a better person I stop lying I stop

I don't even like I don't talk to multiple women Nothing And it just doesn't work out It's just You ain't got no bitches Then why the fuck we keep talking about this shit?

I'm trying to. I don't want to say that's fucking multiple women. I'm trying to. Hopefully somebody here that said, you know, I really like that guy.

That guy has a nice personality. They hit me up. Right. And I heard you on the podcast. I'm going to take him out to dinner. I'm going to take him out. So this is like a dating profile right now?

Yeah. I like it. It's like an advanced Tinder right here. Yeah. He's marketing. He's just marketing. He's playing right here. Romantic marketing.

My resume. Parks does know about the advanced Tinder. I've never been on that, but I assume that there is an advanced search. I'm sure there is. I was the king of the MySpace advanced search. Listen, though, last week, not that last week, the other day, I was in my house literally on the floor laughing for 25 minutes straight because this nigga posted a text conversation between him and a chick and he was dissing the chick saying yo that's why i don't even be texting this bitch because she mad

dry and he posted the conversation and then both both conversations look dry right but this is why i was laughing because he said well this is when the conversation was going bad he said W-Y-D and she said watching TV and then he said without me wow oh no he's a clown super clown

he's a clown wait you a clown if you used the without me or say wow with mad W's I think he was doing it sarcastic yeah he probably being sarcastic no

that was like his game that was it. You can tell by the rest of it because she said, here you go. Yeah, like she heard that before. Like she done been through that with him before. When a chick say, here you go, my nigga. Yeah, that's your norm. Yeah, you got to get off of that. Why guys can't tell when it's over?

When what's over? Hope. When she not feeling it? Yeah, get off my jack. Get off my line. Because so many times it's happened and later on down the line, you wind up not feeling it. Yeah. Get off my jack. Get off my line. Because so many times this happened and later on down the line, you wind up still getting it. So it's like. But see, and a lot of the times, you know, women say they like persistence.

They like a guy that's attentive and, you know, he shows interest. But it's a fine line because they like those things, but they want it from the guy that they want it from. Listen, you can't without me you can't say wyd and and without me no you can't you can't say wow you can't say without me unless it was a joke too you can't say without me actually i definitely say that shit to my girlfriend joking around but you can't use the without me unless you and the woman have actually took taking it that you have had sex like you've had sexual contact if you haven't used the without me that you and the woman have actually took taking it that you have had sex like you've had sexual contact if you haven't used the without me that's like that's a red you trash if

you use without me and you really want to go yeah but that's what i'm saying when you're ready when you're ready when you're ready to cross that line like y'all sexual with each other the without me is a joke yeah right i thought i thought that without me Was originated from Women wanting men To do things with them And we don't really want to do it But we can't let them know that I thought it originated because that's what girls always say

If I watch some shit Or eat some food or some shit that my girl likes Without her she's going to say wow Without me I thought that was sarcasm I'm talking about when men do it And they are serious I used the without me one time in my sarcasm i'm talking about when men do it and they are serious you shouldn't i used to without me one time in my life and i never spoke to her again she was embarrassed in my text and i knew that to never use that again but i had never done

anything with this girl i wanted to she was like yeah i'm out the shower i was like without me that was the last time i spoke to her oh man, man. I was young. I was young. Why would you ever even disrespect a woman that way and make her feel uncomfortable via sex messaging? Here we go. I'm asking. She was just trying to shower. She was trying to shower.

I know. I wasn't shit for that. And she should be able to shower. Y'all missed the part where I said I understood I was in the wrong and I shouldn't have done it. Y'all missed that part? Okay. All right.

Just checking. Is that your apology letter? That's your statement? No, I'm not. She never responded to me after that. So Okay. All right. Just checking. Is that your apology letter? That's your statement? No, I know. She never responded to me after that, so it was kind of like, whatever. Maybe she listened to the podcast. We started. I was trying to talk about the Highline event before Bill just started talking about not

having no hoes anymore, but it was good to see you there. The next time you should try to bring, it was one of those vibes. Yes, that's why I was really- That was the ambiance. Me and Sho in there just standing up like two broads. I'm like, dang, we ain't got no hoes in here. Mad R&B with the fellas. I mean, one and a half brawlic niggas.

He's hitting the road, and he's doing what he's supposed to do. That's what you got to do as a new act. You got to just pound the road. Yeah. Oh, I don't miss that shit at all. Yeah, you definitely gotta do that. Prime 2 was announced March 2nd. March 16th, I think is the date. March 16th.

Wait, something else came out. Something else came out that was March 2nd. Who announced something for March 2nd? Oh, that's gonna really bother me. Who? Justin Timberlake, maybe? Nah, he's February something. I don't know. I'm excited about Prime.

It's dope. I mixed it. Yeah, I heard a couple records. Keno played a couple records off of the joint for me. Sounds really good. I'm sure there's some rapping there. The first Prime object kind of flew under the radar. I don't think people realize how dope that record was. I'm not saying that that flew under the radar.

No, but I'm just saying, to me, more people should have been talking about that album. Did it gain commercial success? Yeah, it wasn't a commercial record, but... No, I'm not. I'm never talking about commercial when I'm talking about Royce and DJ Premier. I know that's not commercial. They're not doing commercial songs, commercial records.

But I'm saying real rappers and artists that really listen to hip hop. More people should have been talking about that album. Yeah, maybe so. To Maul's point, I think he did a lot more press for his solo project than they did for Prime. That might be true as well. I saw Royce everywhere when that solo project came out.

There wasn't a single media outlet that Royce didn't hit. Yeah, whoever handled that. Yeah, he killed it. Super killed it. Oh, Sears announced they will be closing 100 stores. Isn't that all that's left? I didn't know Sears was open still. I didn't know Sears still had stores open.

I thought PC Riches came and got them out of here. In the 90s. Yeah. Sears was the job I took after the Wiz shut down. After I was stealing out of there. The Wiz. That's a throwback. We getting old, man.

Remember the Wiz? The Wiz. Nobody beats the Wiz. Nobody beats the Wiz. That was the slug. Nobody beats the Wiz that's a throwback we getting old remember the Wiz nobody beats the Wiz nobody beats the Wiz that was the nobody beats the Wiz I remember I bought I think I bought

No Way Out from the Wiz that album I think I think I bought that from the Wiz I know I'm old cause we having this conversation

about the Wiz and I was kinda fucked up when Crazy Eddie's stopped stopped rocking Crazy Eddie's Bradley's

I think you're out of my age range. I'm here for the Wiz. The Wiz, I remember. Nah, you from Queens. Crazy Addy's was like a New York thing. Crazy Addy's. Crazy Addy's.

The Wiz was the shit. I was crazy. What you did at the Wiz, Joe? What was your job? I was stock boy at the Wiz. Okay. That's a good job. Do you steal anything?

I wish I knew. That's what I'm saying. Y'all don't know my story. Oh. He's putting it in a bunch of records, y'all don't know my story. Oh. He's putting it in a bunch of records. Y'all don't listen to Joe Button records. Rory. Stealing from the Wiz?

What mood music project is that one? One of them. Shit. I got mad music. Well, I was a stock boy at the Wiz, so I worked in the back, in the stock room, of course. But this was when laptops were new. Like, really, really new. Like, Compaq was the shit. You had your Compaq, a Sony, all that bullshit.

This was when flat screen TVs, not flat screen, but just the screen. Yeah, it wasn't flat. It was still kind of like, yeah. This is when all of that was new. I was throwing all that shit out the back door of the stockroom. Manager, need the key, garbage outlet. Wait, that was the big throwing all that shit out the back door of the stock room. Manager, need the key, garbage outlet. Wait, that was the big plan? Yeah.

Throw it out the back door. That's the plan. Well, out the back door, there was huge weeds, and then I would just drive there late at night and pick all the shit up and sell in the streets. So as an 18-year-old, I had more money than every street nigga in Jersey City. Except for like day-to-day. You selling electronics, definitely. Yeah, I was getting it. And that eventually led me to meetings. have more money than every street nigga in jersey city except for like electronics definitely yeah

i was i was getting it and that eventually led me to meeting so that's how i met gabby uh who fuck with french uh because i was selling him laptops when he was allowed nelson when he was allowed that's funny but my point i'm bringing this up is when i left there and went to sears i was still on my kleptomaniac shit, but Sears didn't even have nothing fire to steal. Tools? I don't know what you get at a Sears. Steel saws. Yo, the only thing, and I used to say, I'm like, damn, the only thing dope in here is tires.

Yo, Sears, little tire section? It gets your car right. But I wasn't driving, and then they have a car, and couldn't steal the tire. Their closing was not the move speaking of that man if it's anybody listening got hookups on tvs and shit let me know man i need some i need tv i need some tvs need two tvs joey still in contact with the no but i've always judged niggas who wanted the hookup on tvs yeah i'm not paying full price for the new flat screen the full price is $150. TVs are mad cheap today. For a 65-inch?

Pause. You could get a 65-inch for $500 maybe. Yeah, $500. But if the hookup's there. That's true. I mean, I'm with Ball. I'm with Ball. I mean.

You can hit me too. Any electronic hookups? Ice asked me the other day. He said, yo, you know somebody who got a hookup on laptops? And I was like, damn, people still use their laptop? I don't even,

I don't use this shit to do nothing but store music. I barely use my laptop. I don't use my laptop. At all. Like, literally, the phone is everything now.

Yeah. I mean, I got the tower. That's it. What else do? Oh, the Grammys. We never talked about the Grammys. Let's talk about it. Who's performing this weekend at the Grammys?

Let's pull this shit up. All the usual suspects. Bruno. Bruno's about to clean up this shit. Cardi. Bruno's about to kill this. Bruno's going to win every Grammy. He's going to kill his live performance.

He's going to win every Grammy. I've never seen Bruno not kill a live performance. He kills every live performance. I've never seen him not kill a live performance. All right, so let's see here. We have Lady Gaga's performing. I like Lady Gaga. That's why I said this looked like a mix of last year and this year.

This is not correct. This is not right. You're not telling me that Bryson Tiller. Wild thoughts for that. I mean, shout shout out to them it's a good song I just didn't think it'd be a Grammy it's been quite some time I know Grammys does the whole year that was one of my songs of the summer

was that this summer or last summer this summer unforgettable alright Lady Gaga, Pink, Childish Gambino, Little Big Town, Ben Platt, Patti LuPone, Bruno Mars and Cardi B, DJ Khaled, Rihanna, Bryson Tiller, Louis Fonzie and Daddy Yankee, Logic, Alessia Cara and Khaled or Khalid. Is it Khalid or Khalid?

It's too many of them. Khalid, Assad. I think it's Khalid. Enough, enough, enough. SZA, Kesha, Kendrick, you two. I'm about sick and tired of seeing you two on it. You two might be an industry bully.

You two got to go home. They bullied her. I have their whole catalog on my phone somehow. I would like to see SZA clean up. She's going to kill it. I don't think she'll clean up. I would like to see SZA clean up. She's going to kill it. I don't think she'll clean up, but she'll get an award in there. I would like to see her win.

Yeah. Other than that, I mean, I'm not going to say I don't give a fuck about the Grammys because I do. And I 100% will be tuned in. The Logic record I get because of the importance of it. But didn't they kind of get that performance off of VMAs and that was like a big thing? Do we need to repeat it? Yeah. I wish they wouldn't. Apparently. Who's hosting?

That's how I know this song is trashed. The fucking title's a phone number and I still don't have that number memorized. That is how you memorized the number, though, back in the day. It's not a jingle on a commercial? Yo, you know what I was thinking about? Damn, what commercial was that?

I think it's Cars. 1-800-CARS-FOR-KIDS. That shit gets stuck in my head every time I hear it. Damn, I sing that commercial all day. Cars for kids.

1-877-CARS-FOR-KIDS. I want to see that commercial. It's over. 1-800-CARS-FOR-KIDS. Donate your car today That commercial Is birth control for me

I don't want to have kids Cause that Is the most annoying shit What the birth control commercial No We got what you was talking about You didn't have to sing The whole fucking commercial

I wanted to sing it That's why you win to me Exactly Cause you wanted to sing The whole commercial But because y'all got it Didn't mean that the listeners got it. And I'm here for the listeners. Okay.

My bad, bro. Go ahead. Get your shit off. You'll just be dying to paint me as weird. You're going to be mad when you're... I'm laughing because you had the little bounce to it. It's like, bro, you're 37. Don't do that in front of me.

Don't do that. I'm uncomfortable. You're making me nervous. You start bouncing side to side singing 1-877-COSMIC-KIDS. I don't like that. I'm just being-KIDS. I don't like that. I'm just being real with you. I don't like that. But go ahead.

That's all. I don't know what to think now. If I can't sing and dance. Yeah, no. All right, so all of these commercials. Yeah, I agree with Rory's point. They got this performance off at the VMAs. I don't know.

I don't know. I'm not excited. I'm not excited, but I will be watching. I don't know if that makes any sense. Who's the host? Deez. Damn, remember De, but I will be watching. I don't know if that makes any sense. Who's the host? Deez. Damn, remember Deez Nuts jokes? Yes.

That's the type of mood he in right now. Forget it, forget it, forget it. Who's hosting the Grammys? I don't know who's hosting. You just brought him to a different space. I don't know who's hosting. Who? Okay.

James who? James Corden, the late, late name. I never understand. Oh, okay, okay, I got it. Niggas like Savon they answering a question with their hand over their mouth

He could actually sing, though, right? Yeah, I think he used to do Broadway or some shit. Yeah, I saw one joint. He was actually singing. I was like, wait, hold up. He can actually sing. I know what you're talking about. They got to get Smack to host the Grammys or some shit.

Smack as in URL Smack? Yes. That will be the last Grammys televised in the history of Grammys. Smack. Smack going to get up there and plug every ad. I never saw that guy. He going to be at the Grammys. Yo, hold it down.

Do you remember the one that clip went viral of Adele rapping Nicki monster verse? Yeah, that was that show. Yeah Well, that's entertaining. Yeah We're explaining who that is Joe First of all, you think the Cars for Kids song is entertaining. Don't talk to me about entertainment. You're going to start singing it before the show is over, for sure.

Good? Rory doesn't know the difference between memorable and entertaining. I said memorable, not entertaining. All right. I see that you're very defensive about this commercial. I let this one go. Obviously, you're invested. Yeah, that's his shit.

That's his shit. Yeah, my bad. I see that shit. That ain't particular. Cars for Kids is his shit. My bad, bro. My bad. I'm sorry. I didn't know it was that close.

Everybody good? Everybody? Yeah, we good. We good. We good. Is there anything else happening important with the Grammys that we need to know about? I really don't watch the Grammys. It's in New York.

That's cool. Hov's getting an award. Hov's getting some shit. Some writers award. Or is it at Barclays? Or is it like Radio City or something? I don't know. I don't think award Or is it at Barclays Or is it like Radio City Or some shit I don't know

I don't think they would Do it at Barclays I'm just saying With Hov doing all He might be Hov-ing his way Yeah no But not at Barclays No if Hov get an award

Then Lowe and them Definitely gotta get theirs I mean I'll talk to Brian I know he knows The Grammy The Grammy for it Damn it There was something else

Nah I don't care about Action action bronzen being in a movie with al pacino and robert de niro well i was reading on the way netflix has that now yeah uh fuck that's delicious no no the are we talking about the same thing yeah the movie the irishman yeah yeah i wish that's a that's a really big thing getting a martin uh scorsese movie on netflix with robert de niro al pacino yeah that's that's that's the biggest thing they've done yeah That's a really big thing Getting a Martin Scorsese movie On Netflix With Robert De Niro Al Pacino Yeah that's crazy That's the biggest thing

They've done Yeah that's crazy That's crazy Like when I saw that I was like Oh this movie's Gonna be a classic I don't even care

What it's about De Niro Pacino Scorsese I briefly read it It said they sold it For something like 109 million

Which I thought was low Yeah For that Right I heard they only Offered things for $500,000. Yeah. All right. Well, you know what?

Maybe Martin will do a Sway interview, and we'll find out. Rory, you shitting on Sway at all. You are. No, I'm not. I love Sway. No, not shitting on Sway, but shitting on, I don't know. You shitting on something, and I'm taking I don't know. You shit on something. And I'm taking it.

I'm feeling a little way about it. Is this about the cars for kids thing still? Let it go. No, I'm over it. I'm over it. Yo, so let's get to sports real quick just because it seems like a lot is going on in sports. Boy, was I upset at that Jags game because I picked the Jags and they were handing it to the fucking Pats. And that's the only game I watched because I'm boycotting. But god

damn it. That's a weak-ass boycott. Nah, boycott. I'm not surprised at all. I think the Pats should be the one team you should boycott. That's a fact. I'm just saying when you don't play to win, you lose the game. And the Jags got real conservative in the second half. And that's all I'll say. You don't deserve to win, you lose the game. And the Jags got real conservative in the second half, and that's all I'll say.

You don't deserve to win, but they owned up to it. They admitted that, held themselves accountable, so I'm not mad at that. That's that. More, what's going on with LeBron and these niggas wanting to beat up Kevin Love? How do they want to beat up Kevin Love? Because Kevin Love left the Thunder game with the flu,

but he ain't stay in the building. He went home and watched the game while they was getting smacked by 25. If you had a flu, I'm surprised he showed up to the game with a flu. That shit is, it's hard to fucking move around with a flu. I'm not even going to the game. Yeah, but you can't beat me up. I gave it an effort. Like, I showed up.

I have the flu. I'm trying to get these jokes off, man. I don't know if that's logic. No, I'm just saying. How they want to beat Kevin Love up for leaving? You can't want to beat a nigga up for leaving. He got the flu. He shouldn't even be here.

But he was there. And then he left. And that shows him, like, yo, listen, I'm going to give it a shot. Yo, you know what? You know what, y'all? I got the flu. I don't think I can go. So would you want to go to the back, see some of the best medical staff and the trainers

and get some shots? Nah, I'm thinking about just going home. Yeah, hell yeah. I'm't think I can go. So would you want to go to the back, see some of the best medical staff and the trainers and get some shots? Nah, I think I'm going to just go home. Yeah, hell yeah. He's probably shitting himself. I'm going home and getting in the fucking bed. I think I'm just going to take an Advil. I'm going home. I am not mad at Kevin Love. I'm going home. Fuck y'all. Y'all figure

this shit out. I know. They're going to put hands and feet on Kevin Love when he get back. He just got named to the All-Star game. I don't know how, but whatever. Oh, because LeBron is picking teams again. LeBron is coaching the East. That's the pool that they have to pick from. Those are the guys that they have to pick from. Because it's not East and West no more.

So the reserves is like the pool that the captains have to pick from. That's weird. That might be trash. It's going to be trash. I think this will be the only year they do that. They'll probably go back to stay in the East-West next year. They didn't think it was going to be the East-West. It could be entertaining. It's going to be trash. I think this will be the only year they do that. They'll probably go back to stand East-West next year. They didn't think it was going to be... It could be entertaining.

Why is Kevin Love an all-star? Honestly. Because LeBron is the captain. No, but LeBron don't think LeBron picked him. The reserves are in the pool. This is how I believe it's going now. The reserves are in the pool. And the captains, which would be who got the most votes for the starters,

which would be Steph Curry and LeBron, I believe, right? Mm-hmm. So now LeBron and Steph will pick from the reserve pool. So now we might get, you could get Steph and Kevin Love on the same team now. Fam, check this out. You think you're going to go home with the flu and then play an all-star game while I'm there? Well, the all-star game is not for another month.

I don't give a fuck. If I'm LeBron, I'm going to beat the shit out of Kevin Love. Why? At all-star weekend. Why? We just got our asses handed to us. They was getting their asses handed to them when Kevin Love did. To be here thinking you a fucking all-star?

I'm mad as hell we traded Wiggins for you. I'm putting hands on you. If I'm LeBron. Yeah. Is what I'm saying. I love Kevin Love. Yeah. But I mean, having on you. If I'm LeBron. Yeah. Is what I'm saying. I love Kevin Love. Yeah. But I mean,

having the flu showing up is an effort. You got to salute Kevin Love for that, for even showing up. The flu is nothing to play with. That's why niggas can talk about that Michael Jordan flu game.

That was not the flu. Yeah, it was a hangover. That was called the hangover. It was a penny hangover. Yeah, it's not the flu. That was cigars and cognac.

I saw Ice earlier talking about how bad the man flu is. The man flu is rough, though. He was right. Tell me more about this man flu. You don't be feeling like you're dying? That's every day for me. That was dark.

That's not the flu. Every day you got the flu? That's not the flu for me. That's life. Every day is the flu. Earlier, I was in bed thinking, yo, I feel like I'm about to die. There's your new show, Everyday Flu. That show is trash.

From your bed. I would watch it. If a nigga had a flu every day on TV, I would watch that. I don't know how many more episodes we have, but this nigga just out of here and kicks the bucket. It's any day now. This nigga had the flu for four months it's any day for him that's the other thing niggas don't want niggas don't want that theraflu smoke with me i'll make a different type of theraflu this nigga

let me hear it would you put honey lemon look all right i didn't even tell you yet you were already talking to the public about it what i'll tell you in private if i tell you yet, and you were already talking to the public about it. What? I'll tell you in private if I tell you. The streets can't know about it? No. He had a little Henny, a little cognac, a little wine. I don't know what you go back and tell Brian and Lenny in the mail. Wait, no. He might add it to the cocktail list for Ducey Palooza.

Oh, my God. Y'all have a- I should make Joe a specialty drink called the Theraflu. Theraflu Palooza? Ducey. Y'all are making a cocktail list? I'm just talking shit, man. I know you're still upset.

But are y'all going to make one? No. It's an open bar. Just go get the Duce. Yeah, there'd be a list. Just go get the Duce. Just go get the Duce. Star definitely had on single sole Timbs.

Nah, those wasn't Timbs, man. Those wasn't Timbs. Those were those wasn't Timbs, man. Those wasn't Timbs. Those were shoes, man. Those were shoes. That's wild. Because I looked at those. I was like, wait, are those Timbs or the shoe Timbs? That's the other thing.

When Star was getting his legend shit on, they never put a camera on, but there. It's a little different now that you got it. And it's weird for Starr because he can't go too young. He can't show up tomorrow with some off-white Air Maxes on. Like, he can't do it.

He got to stay in his, you know. Kangol. Yeah, he got to stay in his adult lane. A little polo, buttoned down. How did he,
