Starting point is 00:21:16 pants man we argued about this what i did not argue with you and you will not get me to argue with you this podcast either keisha cole did ke Cole things. She did exactly what I expected her to do, and I loved everything about it. And I'm here to talk about it. What's up? Yeah, we're here to talk about it. What's up, man? Come on. First of all, the ladies look great.
Starting point is 00:21:32 They did. They both look great. They both look spectacular. They were a month and 47 minutes late, but they look great. One of them wasn't. Yeah. Listen, I don't mind them being late. One of them wasn't last night.
Starting point is 00:21:44 One of them made us wait an hour the other one made us wait for a few months no month and a half i don't think that's five weeks but okay had to be five weeks it's supposed to happen december 19th here we are about a month later one of them made us wait a month it's fine it's fine it's fine wasn't wasn't keisha she was sick yesterday too yeah overall what did you guys think of this before we get into our debate
Starting point is 00:22:08 as far as the entire verses yeah just every I mean this particular verses I think we got spoiled with the both of them
Starting point is 00:22:17 in the studio same room just the aesthetics were different I think we were just used to seeing that and we got comfortable seeing them
Starting point is 00:22:24 seeing the artists in the same room. So that was a little different. But the audio wasn't bad. It wasn't not much of a delay. Yeah. So you could tell that they made sure that they had it as right as they could being in separate venues. They had Keisha's mic way too loud.
Starting point is 00:22:38 Yeah, I was going to say. The mics wasn't it. They could have EQ'd them a little something, maybe a little reverb or something, make them sound like singers. Yeah. But overall, the performance was a little underwhelming. I think the fact that we had waited so long, the anticipation was high. But the performance was a little underwhelming.
Starting point is 00:22:56 I don't know if it's because of the split rooms or whatever. I can't speak to that, but it was just a little underwhelming for me. I won't use the word underwhelming, but I understand your position. I briefly thought about that for a second as well, but I chopped it up to this event taking place on a Thursday night. Now, the other times this was supposed to happen, it was a Saturday. Saturday would have been better. And both of the Saturdays that this was scheduled for, I had big shit popping.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Same. I had a kickback plan. Women were excited. They were hype. It was food. It was food coming. Hors d'oeuvres and shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Finger foods and shit. But on a Thursday night, that's not really the vibe. Niggas got to work in the morning. Traffic is back in New York. People are actually looking like they have places to go. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:39 So, yeah, Thursday night, I wasn't going to feel that. I saw a lot of people complaining about the time that Keisha showed up. No complaints from me. Every single Versus has started 45 minutes to an hour late. That's true.
Starting point is 00:23:54 All of them. I don't mind. Since their Apple deal. So I'm not putting that on Keisha. I don't mind the time. If you're going to be late, give me aj that didn't just put his itunes on shuffle that was some of the worst djing i've ever heard in my life valid completely valid he was all over i don't want to do that i'm not gonna do that because i don't know what the djs had to deal
Starting point is 00:24:16 with behind the scenes okay that's fair so i don't want to just totally shit on the job that someone did i know the fat joe record came on a lot. I appreciated that. Ashanti sat down and she was sitting there pretty early running through some of her earlier records, records that she wasn't going to play. I couldn't understand that, but... It was a little weird. Weird is one way to look at it. It could also be perceived as...
Starting point is 00:24:43 It could be perceived a way. I won't i won't i won't say what because i don't want people to accuse me as to trying to start shit because i'm not well i believe the dj was just playing those records because she even looked surprised on certain ones it didn't look like a plan to me i think ashanti was probably asked to get on the screen just to like yeah she was ready obviously first so it was like everyone was on twitter saying yo what the fuck where they at yeah so i think they just kind of did an audible and Ashanti went in there just to entertain people. Which also could be putting Ashanti at a disadvantage.
Starting point is 00:25:13 For sure. Like, you want me to sit on, we're supposed to do this together. You want me to sit out here alone with however million people watching and I'm supposed to just do what? Burn. So that's a disadvantage for Ashanti, but, you know, she came out and she was professional and she sat there until she held it down, like she said, until Keisha was ready. She didn't have to do that.
Starting point is 00:25:32 All class. Yeah, she didn't have to do that. But, you know, we appreciated that because we definitely was looking at chairs and candles and Doritos for about 57 minutes. Yeah. So Keisha Cole comes out and let's get right to the scoring of this thing. How did you gentlemen have it scored? Let's go through the rounds. Let's do scores at the end. Yeah. So Keisha Cole comes out and let's get right to the scoring of this thing. How did you gentlemen have it scored?
Starting point is 00:25:46 Let's go through the rounds. Let's do scores at the end. Okay. Got it. Round one. Keisha, I changed my mind. Ashanti,
Starting point is 00:25:55 happy. That's a point to Ashanti. That's a point to Ashanti. Yeah. Now, but Keisha set it off. All right, hold on,
Starting point is 00:26:03 hold on, hold on. Because I don't like the way y'all just, that was like a quick, y'all didn't even think about that I don't need to Okay Happy's a big record
Starting point is 00:26:10 I changed my mind Is not fucking with Happy at all No It was a nice start I changed my mind Is a I love It's a great record
Starting point is 00:26:18 I love that record It's not fucking with Happy though Happy is So you said Ashanti won her first round Yes Okay cool I had it like that too I thought y'all said
Starting point is 00:26:24 Keisha won her first round Happy is One of Ashanti's bigger and better records. I thought you said Keisha won. My bad. I said Keisha won. The first round? No. I said she won the battle. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:26:34 I don't have Keisha winning. I changed my mind versus Happy. But what I will say, I loved the strategy. I like that as a starting record. Coming out with a big record? I like coming out with a big record. Then like that as a starting record. Coming out with a big record. I like coming out with a big record, then she followed with a big record, then she followed with a big record,
Starting point is 00:26:50 then she followed with a big record. Yeah. That was different for me, watching somebody start out with their strongest records. And I enjoyed that more. It caused Ashanti to maybe call an audible that she didn't plan for, one. And two, it left the suspense at the end of the movie for me.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Too many times we see people just skate through the first 10, 12 joints. And now we know the songs that are left. And then it's like, okay. The only thing about that, though, is it kind of ran out of gas in the last two rounds a little bit. Yeah, I mean, Ashanti had mesmerized, but it did get a little underwhelming towards the end. Yeah. See, but I even loved, I loved that, too, mesmerized, but it did get a little underwhelming towards the end. See, but I even loved, I loved that too, if I'm being honest with you.
Starting point is 00:27:37 I loved that Keisha won the rounds to me that she was supposed to win, and the rounds that she probably wasn't going to win, she didn't even fight. She didn't even play a record for Foolish. She did, but here's the last song in the album I put out in 08. I mean, but a lot of the time, your biggest record i love that we joke all the time about how we should that should happen but we never see him do it that's true so for her to actually do it fuck foolish here nigga you win now next but i feel like i did like that that didn't happen mesmerized she shanti got that point at the end but by that point she wasn't about to catch Keisha by my score.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Your score was wrong. All right, well, let's keep going. Round two, Keisha Cole, I should have cheated. Is Shanti the way that I love you? Keisha. Keisha. 1-1. Yes.
Starting point is 00:28:16 Yeah. Round three, Keisha Cole, enough of love featuring Wayne. Shanti, don't love me. Don't leave me alone. Yeah. I got a Love Me. Don't Leave Me Alone. Yeah. I got Ashanti. Same. 2-1, Ashanti.
Starting point is 00:28:31 I did not give Don't Leave Me Alone to Ashanti. Okay. That's fine. I gave that to Keisha Cole. Mm-hmm. 2-1, Keisha. In your book, okay. Round four.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Yeah, mine. Round four, Shoulda Let You Go Versus Rock With You Rock With You is a point Whenever it comes on Yeah 2-2 I have a 3-1
Starting point is 00:28:53 Keisha Alright I have a 2-2 Keisha Cole I Remember Versus Southside Southside I have a 4-1 I love Southside
Starting point is 00:29:01 Keisha Cole gets that point But I think I'm taking I Remember Keisha Cole gets that point I have it 3-2 4-1. Keisha Cole gets that point. I love Southside, but I think I'm taking out Remembrance. Keisha Cole gets that point. I have it 3-2. 4-1. Round six. Last night versus Ain't It Funny Remix.
Starting point is 00:29:13 I give that point to Keisha Cole again. Ashanti. I'm giving Ashanti Ain't It Funny Remix. So now we're going into... You asked me for my score, I'm just telling you. And we can go over it. Everybody can give their own scores. Maul has this at 5-1
Starting point is 00:29:26 That's hilarious Yeah, so do I Round seven Cards right Cards right featuring Tupac 5-2 Keisha wins that round Keisha, sure
Starting point is 00:29:34 I didn't want to award points To anyone in this round Yeah That's how you was feeling? Yeah, but Keisha gets that point I gave her that Round eight I did too
Starting point is 00:29:43 Love versus rain on me A lot of people gave it to Keisha gets that point I gave her that Round 8 I did too Love vs. Rain on me A lot of people gave it to Keisha with love I gave it to Ashanti with rain on me 6-2 on my book Keisha Cole trust and believe vs. down for you Score 1 7-2 Score 1 for
Starting point is 00:29:59 What you want Score 1 for Ashanti I got Ashanti there I have Ashanti there too 7-2 Ashanti on my book round 10, which finishes the first half, is You've Changed versus Runaway. Keisha. Keisha. Seven, three.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Six, four. In my book. Okay. Six, four, Keisha in your book. Six, four, Keisha. Seven, three, Ashanti. After 10 rounds. So now, let's discuss after the 10.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Sure. Yeah, because 11 is very debatable. I don't think that Keisha Cole should have been up going into the second 10. She wasn't. Well, she wasn't in my book. But in your book, she was. She was for me. I'm only talking about me.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Y'all can speak about y'alls. Mm-hmm. But there were some points. When Keisha played her Pac record record before Ashanti played a record I just gave her the point until she played a record and then I said oh no the same thing happened on um uh right before that uh no no stop stop stop stop stop uh enough of love and don't leave me alone same thing happened there for me Who doesn't know that I recorded a podcast today? Who has the gall?
Starting point is 00:31:10 South Side I love, but that's just not beating I Remember. I've been talking about I Remember here for weeks. I don't think you had to pull a bigger record out against I Remember. I love South Side. I just don't think Ashanti took the points that she should have taken. I think she kind of slept some. But I also don't think that she planned on Keisha playing all of her big records in the first half. It looked like she may have called two or three audibles.
Starting point is 00:31:33 It looked like she had a game plan that she was going to stick to no matter what until Keisha's biggest record started coming on. It was like, all right, we're not going to let you do that. I felt like Timberland and Swizz had something to do with this list. Like, too many of the records went too well against each other. It seemed very planned to me in a good way. I don't know if there was awkwardness. They both played their bigger records in round four type shit.
Starting point is 00:31:55 That seems planned to me. The Pac shit at the same time. Two really big samples on what? Round 10. Very well-known samples against each other. I felt like they did these matchups purposely. Big samples on what? Round 10. Very well-known samples against each other. I felt like they did these matchups purposely. They wouldn't have put that Keisha record against Foolish.
Starting point is 00:32:14 They wouldn't have done that. They wouldn't have put that Keisha record against Mesmerize. They wouldn't have done it. There's certain things they wouldn't have done. But that was the only two, I felt. And I think Keisha just wanted to play her record at the end. And the Foolish joint, yeah, she just had to throw that point away but other than that I thought they were really good matchups that could have went either way in a lot of places with the bigger records in the early rounds which we haven't seen in versus round 11 is probably the most difficult
Starting point is 00:32:35 uh round for me in the entire battle which is baby versus heaven sent which I gave to Keisha Cole I'm giving it a tie I saw a lot of scorecards floating around with ties. Man up. Man up. You know what? I'll give it to Keisha because I like Heaven Sent more. But I can see why people would score that for Baby. Me too.
Starting point is 00:32:57 But I just like Heaven Sent more. I'll play Heaven Sent before I play Baby. I'm pussy. I had a tie there. Yeah. Oh, come on with a tie, you guys. I prefer Heaven Sent, but that Baby. I'm pussy. I had a tie there. Yeah. Oh, come on with a tie, you guys. I prefer Heaven Sent, but that's a tie to me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Ashanti, only you. I'll give it to Keisha then. Keisha, brand new. One of my favorite Keisha Cole records. But again, I'll be honest, it seemed like Keisha was ready to give the point away whenever only you came on. You're not going to go against seven with just anything. You're not.
Starting point is 00:33:26 No. I have an eight for Ashanti at this point. So now, mind you, now I've given Ashanti the, wait. No, Ashanti got round 12. So I've already given Keisha two of the first three rounds in the second half, and I had her up going into it. But cool, we keep going. Where we at? Round 13?
Starting point is 00:33:45 13, yeah. What's love, Ja Rule and Ashanti versus trust featuring Monica? Ashanti. Ashanti. Never the case. I have Ashanti winning that,
Starting point is 00:33:55 but... Never the case. Considering it was just a hook. Never the case. Never the case. You like what's love more than you like trust? I don't.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Cut it out. I don't. You do. I don't. I'm out. I don't. You do. I don't. I'm telling you. I'm telling the four of you I don't. And I know y'all are joking around the par. Rory, no, I don't like What's Love better than this song.
Starting point is 00:34:14 If y'all just, you tell that. I know. I like What's Love. And listen, even if I did, let me play along. Even if I did, my fear going into the battle was exactly what happened like Fat Joe wasn't there John wasn't there that record today sounds and she didn't need to be there she's on the record she's on the second verse of the record that record is a hit when the first verse and the hook is on what What's Love is a huge hit.
Starting point is 00:34:45 But if they're not there and we're going to only hear the hook, the bridge, and then the hook again, and it goes off, you want me to give that point to Ashanti? I'm sorry. I cannot. Well, we're going off records. She's on the record. I'm not. Which record do you like better? Well, for me, it's both.
Starting point is 00:35:04 It's Keisha for both Okay but that's That's contradictory To anything you've scored In the other Verses Where I've seen you give a point
Starting point is 00:35:12 To somebody that just did a hook Who? Probably in the 2 Chainz battle Almost every battle There was a hook Pain, T-Pain I'm sure you did First of all a hook is a major part of liking a record
Starting point is 00:35:26 yo can I just tell y'all I'm not upset that she only did the hook I'm upset that only the hook played there was a couple times that they did that there was a couple times
Starting point is 00:35:36 where they played a little bit of verse or the verse and that's how they should do it there was no verse he should let Dwayne's entire verse go the hook came on the bridge go. The hook came on,
Starting point is 00:35:46 the bridge came on, the hook came on, and it went off. I, Joe Budden, cannot give that point to A'shawn. I'm not doing it. And I wouldn't do it. You're not giving it to her based on the way she played the record or the record? Well, I'm not giving it to her based on both. But I'm saying I was just going along with y'all's
Starting point is 00:36:01 theory for a little bit. Where we at? Where we at? 14. A fucking travesty. See, this But I'm saying I was just going along with y'all's theory for a little bit. Okay. Where we at? Where we at? 14. 14. A fucking travesty. See, this is where I can't give points on hooks. A fucking travesty. Why? Because the Tamiya one was the one.
Starting point is 00:36:16 Absolutely. I mean, we all know that. But Ashanti has a- But what? She has a rendition of that. But this be my little tiny issue with Ashanti. There's no issue with Ashanti. But be my little tiny issue with Ashanti. There's no issue with Ashanti. But this is my tiny issue with Ashanti.
Starting point is 00:36:28 If it's good enough that you just wrote the record, then play the record. Well, she didn't write. That was a Tamir song. Did she write that for Tamir, the original So Into You? No. Yeah, that's why I also couldn't. You play your J-Lo records, but you wrote them. I'm totally cool with that.
Starting point is 00:36:44 But I'm going back to what's love. Why not play the song? I wrote this song. I don't care who put it. Hey, the fucking, why not play the J-Lo record, the original one? Like, y'all been beefing about this record for years, and you wrote it. Play her version. Or maybe she wasn't allowed to, so who knows?
Starting point is 00:37:03 Yeah, I don't know. Who knows about that? Because Keisha Cole allegedly was not allowed to play who knows yeah who knows about that because keisha cole allegedly was not allowed to play i just wanted to be over oh really because that record never came on yeah and it's a point but it's fine let's keep going uh where we at 14 into you versus i've changed keisha uh i've changed featuring keisha Carson's Jaheim record. That's another point that I was ready to give Ashanti. I can't give her that based off what came on. That wasn't it.
Starting point is 00:37:33 It didn't sound like it. And you played the, the intro came on and then the hook looped eight times and it went off. What do y'all want me to do? I wasn't listening to the versus format i was thinking just thinking about the entire record me too see i well no i gotta listen to what's playing because sometimes they jazz up their tv tracks in this shit yeah and ashanti did that earlier i saw i've seen her live so I know how she jazzes up the TV tracks.
Starting point is 00:38:05 She did it. Remember she said the Mike Jackson 5 sample's expensive, whatever, she started talking about this shit, cool. I couldn't do that.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Again, I scored for Keisha. Girl in the movies versus Give It Up To Me. Keisha. Keisha. Keisha is the answer. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:38:24 but see where it's getting scary? Mesmerize versus Let It Go. I give it to Mesmerize, Ashanti. Foolish, Ashanti is getting it. Round 18 is The Way That I Love You versus You Complete Me. Ashanti. 19, Don't Let Me. Yeah, Ashanti swe don't let me Yeah Ashanti
Starting point is 00:38:46 Ashanti sweeps the rest of the way Okay so But by that point In my score It's too late to catch her No way I just gave Ashanti I just gave Keisha Cole
Starting point is 00:38:55 Six in the first ten And And five And Ashanti won the last four I gave I know but Keisha won the first The five of the first six
Starting point is 00:39:04 In the second half to me. No. Which one did she lose? Well, you had her losing what's love. Yeah. What else did you have her losing here? Go back to it? I had 11-9 Ashanti.
Starting point is 00:39:17 And I had 11-9 Keisha. 11-9 Ashanti. I had 11-9 Keisha. I'm hearing a lot of 11-9 either way. I also told y'all, if this battle is close at all, I give it9 Keisha I'm hearing a lot of 11-9 either way I also told y'all If this battle is close at all I give it to Keisha Now let me talk about my personal
Starting point is 00:39:29 My personal biasness Because that exists here But not because I favor one artist More than the other They both were instrumental to me They both fire It's something to be said For artists Who just shows up as the instrument and does it
Starting point is 00:39:51 y'all have to know that i always feel a sore spot in my heart for that person the person that's forced to do it without the backing without the label without this without that i just have to do it and when the label leaves i just got to keep doing it I just have to do it. And when the label leaves, I just got to keep doing it. I just got to do it. Fuck it. Just my voice, my pen. That's it. There's no fancy features. There's no cosign.
Starting point is 00:40:10 There's no big to-do. I don't have makeup. I'm not the prettiest girl. Everybody don't want to fuck me. I'm not saying she's not. I'm just saying. Keisha Cole has a lot of big features. She was on the major, wasn't she?
Starting point is 00:40:20 Yeah. Yeah, she was on the major. And she had a nice run. The people that love Keisha Cole can tell when the support left. She was a Kanye feature. Yeah. What? We can tell when the support left.
Starting point is 00:40:33 That's all I'm saying. Sure. I would say the same for Ashanti, potentially, though. I was just going to say, yeah. It happened with Ashanti. She just didn't stay as active as Keisha tried to after that happened. And I don't put Ashanti in that boat, to be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:40:46 Yes, that happened to Ashanti. But Ashanti was afforded the world upon arrival when she signed because of the crew, because of the camp, because of the money they had, because of their standing in Def Jam. She spent a lot of years writing. Yeah, let's not take away from her work there.
Starting point is 00:41:03 Whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm not talking about the work there. She's put in. I'm talking about the other side now. She helped build that. That monster that she signed into, she helped build by writing a lot of those records that got Murder, Inc. to that spot. So when she became that solo artist,
Starting point is 00:41:17 she had built Murder, Inc. quietly with Ja. It wasn't like, let's just sign this pretty girl, and because we have this machine behind us, she'll be successful. No, she helped build that machine. I agree. Okay. I'm going to say that Murder, Inc. got the deal that they got
Starting point is 00:41:34 when they got it off the strength of Irv. Sure. Of course. And that's it. Now, now, now. I'm talking about the actual roster. Not about the relationships. Now, what Irv does after he gets the deal, he's Irv still, so he's going to go find a genius to help build it up.
Starting point is 00:41:49 Irv is a genius. And that's what happened. So Ashanti is in the studio with geniuses. True. There's something to be said for that to me. I know how it is to record without those geniuses. I just think that— You know how it is to record without geniuses.
Starting point is 00:42:01 Sure. You don't. You've been around geniuses. You don't, really. You geniuses you don't really you surrounded by really talented people when you get your mix on you've never just gone in there and just been forced to come out with something and for me sure man is that tough yeah that's tough so i just have i have a spot for not just keisha but anybody that is in that boat a long time ago on youtube i had but i, but I can't-
Starting point is 00:42:25 Wait, let me just get this point out real quick. And then you can go ahead. A long time ago on YouTube, I had this exact same argument. I picked the wrong artist, but I had the argument. It was Rihanna versus Keisha Cole. And I picked Keisha Cole at the time. Because of the same thing I'm saying now. Homegrown talent.
Starting point is 00:42:41 And when the manufactured shit goes away, the homegrown talent should be able to sustain and you can get talent from them at any point. Now, Rihanna's a unicorn, so that was wrong. You should pick Rihanna. But I still can't say that because that murder ain't- But everything I said then is applicable for me here. No way.
Starting point is 00:42:59 For me. I'm only talking about for me. Ashanti created that murder ain't sound that we love. She was in those rooms for a reason. She was in those rooms for a reason she was in those rooms for a reason she had she had people around her for a reason
Starting point is 00:43:08 I fight that but logically I'll retort that I don't want to seem like we killing any of them the culture one listen Ja Rule Put It On Me
Starting point is 00:43:17 existed before Ashanti was on murder ink so I can't totally say that listen you made Jay Z make another one but Ashanti was the staple of creating that Murder, Inc. R&B, hip-hop, fusion shit that we love Murder, Inc. for. Then make it again.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Because that's what I say. That's how I handle what you're saying. I know y'all joking me because I'm retired. If this mic comes on, I could rap probably. I could probably do it. Find the mic. If that is true, I would like to see that because there's been attempts to come and it don't sound like the sauce. But we have to factor in what happened with Murder, Inc. with their case.
Starting point is 00:44:01 That kind of just crippled them at their peak. And, you know, 50-wise, really killed them. But a lot of that had to do with the case they were going through. And that was Ashanti in the middle of her fucking peak. That's a tough thing to try to go. And then try to get out of that deal that has to do with a criminal fucking act is really difficult to be like, well, I guess I'll just put out music now. You are absolutely right, Rory.
Starting point is 00:44:22 That's not easy. But what I saw last night was carryover of some things. Ashanti, like Maul said, was so classy. She was very stationary. She knew how to sit. She knew how to posture. She knew when to talk. She knew when to be confused by OT Genesis
Starting point is 00:44:45 hey who is this is she okay check on that over there I don't know him I don't know him what are they doing I'm a star and that's going to get
Starting point is 00:44:55 to my next one that is really ghetto over there did y'all see it on his face yes I did she knew how to talk
Starting point is 00:45:01 to her sound man without alerting people that there was an issue she knew how to keep it going she knew how to talk to her sound man without letting people alerting people that yeah there was an issue she knew how to keep it going she knew how to keep it cute and classy maybe when she didn't feel like it like ashanti she's a pro to me looked like somebody that was training to go against the beyonces and uh you know where you know the ashanti bag. That's carried over. Look at her. Keisha looks the exact opposite, and my hood ass is always going to get to that. I love the person that you can tell something's wrong.
Starting point is 00:45:37 It just is relatable to me. I love the person that, yo, my mic is fucked up. I'm not going out there. Like, Joe likes that. I can see how it angered other people. But for me me going through what you have to go through as an artist no y'all suck my dick i don't care i don't care but with that that's what it looked like to me and i loved all that bay area shit give it to me they told me i was i was disrespecting new york i wasn't with, I wasn't riding with the coast. Yo, y'all got crazy to me.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Whoa. Yeah. Wait till they hear this. The suck might tell what they gonna do. Ready in common. Oh, please. You could never go to Glencoe. Yo, my music taste ain't dictated
Starting point is 00:46:17 off of y'all fucking sheep. Wait, let me make myself clear. I think y'all know my music taste ain't dictated off of the sheep. I know how programming and conditioning works. Mm-hmm. Nobody was ever conditioned to like Keisha Cole more than Ashanti.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Mm-hmm. No, I know how this goes. But, man, I want to thank both of them because it was great. They were beautiful. I had a blast. Yeah, they look great. They look great. Keisha pulled some joints out.
Starting point is 00:46:40 There were some joints she left off the table. I think she proved her point man i think everything that i said going into this which was i think her discography is there's a little more meat in there i heard that no you didn't it sounded like that 1000 no you did keisha lawson it's okay i'm telling you about my what my brain did i know when them album when them early album cuts came on, that was every woman's joint. Mm-hmm. When it came out, just wasn't,
Starting point is 00:47:09 that wasn't it last night. I feel you. Wasn't it last night? Yeah. But nonetheless, it was beautiful. Thank you to those beautiful ladies.
Starting point is 00:47:15 Yeah. I think they squashing the rumors of Travis Scott and Future, so we just jumped the gun. Yeah. We just jumped the gun there, but that's fine.
Starting point is 00:47:22 And you guys still have the same take on that? What's that? That that's a fair matchup? Oh, yeah. I wanted y'all to think about that a little bit. Pox life.
Starting point is 00:47:33 You downloaded that right after it went off. Everybody know about Pox life. Get the fuck out of here. Give me a speech before Pox life comes on. I mean, she told you about it, though.
Starting point is 00:47:45 Ashanti turned down a hook for you or something? Hmm. Okay. Do it sound like I have some type of underlying issue with Ashanti? Yes. I'm just passionate about music, not people. The people can... No, but you're passionate about...
Starting point is 00:47:57 The people can change places. Not Ashanti's music. Passionate about Keisha's music. I love Ashanti's music. Okay. I was just asking. Fam, Ashanti is... Ashanti's music Okay I was just asking Fam Ashanti is Ashanti's Ashanti man
Starting point is 00:48:07 So her joints is her joints But The same I'm not gonna let niggas kill Mace For having a A kinda short discog Because there's greats With just short discog
Starting point is 00:48:18 Of course I think Ashanti is a great With a short discog Okay That's it That's fair But only you Rain on me,
Starting point is 00:48:26 baby, there's joints in there. But 20, you just can hear where it gets thin. And I heard it get thin for Keisha twice. But even then, I thought it was plant. Okay. Listen, Ashanti just performed everything better to me. So outside of me having her win, yeah, if you just print out the song list we
Starting point is 00:48:45 wouldn't need to do verses performance matters to me yeah ashanti performed everything better than keisha cole i'm sorry the mic was fucked up for keisha because she was really singing but that's a factor for me i'm sorry i'm with you like i'm with you that's partly it's partially her dj or whoever sound guy is they're loading the music too much and putting her mic too high it's only when she started to sing, like the mix went bad. This is a performance. It started out with producers just playing records back and forth.
Starting point is 00:49:10 That's cool. This was, they're performing now with this verse. Yeah, but even now, I don't put much stock in that because you have soundcheck. True. See, I fall on the opposite side
Starting point is 00:49:18 of what y'all are saying. If I'm Keisha Cole and I've watched every songstress get up on verses and sing their song and it'd be beautiful then yeah I'm gonna get a little irk now that I have to sit down and y'all are telling me I can't move and y'all are following the the whatever their little framing shit is that they're doing because you got sick when you wasn't like I would have I would have answered I would I'm a singer
Starting point is 00:49:42 yeah but that's not my voice goes it's not because the sound was fucked up. But I heard the amazing ability through the fucked up sound. Everybody else said it sounded like shit. I'll take your word for it. But yeah, I would be angry if as a singer, I can't stand up. I can't sing out loud. That's my bag. I would be mad about it.
Starting point is 00:50:00 Just for the record, Patti LaBelle and Gladys Knight sat down the entire time. No, they didn't. And Brandi and Monica sat for some of it, too. But no, I agree. The free range to move around as a singer, yeah, you would want that. They stood up and had a sing-off. They stood up and had a sing-off.
Starting point is 00:50:19 Listen, I'd have probably enjoyed it better if they were in the same place, and Keisha might have felt a little better if they were in the same place and Keisha might have felt a little better if they were in the same place that's valid oh yeah that I'm not yeah that's all I wouldn't argue that at all
Starting point is 00:50:31 and don't ever bring up two of the greatest in the fucking world no I'm just saying we can't make excuses if you're a singer you can sing Patty LaBelle can sing
Starting point is 00:50:40 underwater yeah but that when you're a singer you can do that that's all I'm saying. I've got a whole list of singers that can't. When you can sing. I have a list of singers who can't do that.
Starting point is 00:50:49 They're not really singers then. It's a difference. Just know it's a difference. That's all I'm saying. You're talking about gods and mortals. You're talking about gods and mortals. No, I'm talking about singers and not singers. Yeah, I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:51:01 Pac's life. My life? That was your shit? Did Ashanti write Hail Mary? I don't think so. Scream Man checked that one. To live and die in L.A. Scream Man, don't check that one.
Starting point is 00:51:13 To live and die in L.A. Hey, Scream Man. Don't check that one either. Let's see if Ashanti's pin was on To Live and Die in L.A. Holy shit! What happened? Against all odds. I think I heard some Ashanti harmonies on that one.
Starting point is 00:51:26 No, that wasn't her. I missed the random hood chick that would sing on classic rap records. We don't know where any of them are. Nah. They were usually out of key. It was great. I think we know where all of them are. The internet found every one of them.
Starting point is 00:51:42 They found... Oh, excuse me. Who used to sing on these records? Where my guy Rel at? I have no idea where Rel's at. Probably somewhere
Starting point is 00:51:52 right in our head. We know where Lil Mo is. No, I'm not talking about the ones that we know that had solo careers. Oh, the hood shit. She wasn't even credited.
Starting point is 00:52:00 I'm talking about some of our favorite 90s records from rappers. Where's Sakitha? Yeah, we don't know who was singing on a lot of those records. They didn't go on to have budding solo careers. Parks didn't allow credits to be released back then?
Starting point is 00:52:12 Parks, where were the credits in the 90s? Where was title? They stick a U2 with that shit. Somebody tell Parks that Spotify has credits. They do, but they're not full credits at all. It's just a songwriter. Tell us. Talk your shit, bro. not full credits at all. Take, take, tell, tell, talk your shit,

Starting point is 01:05:17 because this wasn't happening. We're already talking about a different dead body. Oh, okay. But that's what I'm saying. In the summertime, and let me not bring down the value of Steinway. We're not going over there. Support local businesses businesses it's a classic block yeah for real them killers were so hype when amazon was coming it was all like yo why did amazon choose virginia hey i'll tell you why there's only been 20 bodies in the past month over here.
Starting point is 01:05:46 No, you keep your property value the same. Now raising your shit so you can buy weapons. Yeah, you definitely had to plan out your late night bodega runs. Like, ooh, 2 o'clock on a Friday. Killers ain't out yet. They're still getting drunk. There's a couple times when they came early. The same way the same way
Starting point is 01:06:05 I have stories about trying to sell drugs and just recognizing that it wasn't for me I have those same stories about shooting guns not for you man this is loud
Starting point is 01:06:16 yeah what the fuck is this my hand is still vibrating what the fuck is this ow yes whoa that thing is hot
Starting point is 01:06:24 piping oh my god What the fuck is this? Ow. Yes. Whoa. That thing is hot. Piping. Oh my God. Wow, these movies are lying. Right. You know you can't. I need two hands for this shit. You shouldn't be a shooter when it's not getting where it was supposed to go in the sky. What?
Starting point is 01:06:45 You miss the sky? I can't hit the moon. Wait. Missing the whole sky. What was your New Year's Eve like? Honestly, back in the day, and I remember somebody that was more equipped with weapons than me. I bought a gun one time, allegedly,
Starting point is 01:07:01 and I showed him the gun. I thought it was pretty because I thought his weapons were pretty bad. It's like art and he said oh man that thing is beautiful you bust that thing yet? and I was like I never even thought of that
Starting point is 01:07:13 wait you never thought about shooting a gun? never crossed your mind I should check this bad boy I went right up to the roof no more gun for me the inauguration I should check this bad boy. I went right up to the roof. Oh, it was over. I was like, all right, no more guns for me.
Starting point is 01:07:27 Yeah. The inauguration. Yes. That's why niggas stole guns from me before. But it's like, you know what? He probably is going to use it. Probably has some use for it. Yeah, he probably needs that.
Starting point is 01:07:39 And I don't. The inauguration. Jennifer Lopez was there. Alex Rodriguez was there. The Obamas were there. Sounds like a couples night. The Clintons were there. Georgie Duff. You are
Starting point is 01:07:53 going to trigger them all here, but keep going. Listen, man. It's not fun. That was Antifa? That was Antifa at the inauguration. If you ask more, Obama is part of it. Why does they keep inviting J-Lo to do things where you have to be strong? I mean, there's other options. I love J-Lo.
Starting point is 01:08:17 She's from the Bronx. She's one of our finest treasures out of the city. But it's like, why do they keep trying to display her vocal ability? There's other, there's just better options. I don't have an answer. There's just better options is all I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:08:31 There's probably a couple different ways you can jump. There's better vocals out there. You are going hard for Ashanti today. Oh. Whoa. Well, not for nothing.
Starting point is 01:08:40 That topic is over, Mark. I love J-Lo, but it's just like, you should be a very strong vocalist when you're singing at the inauguration is all I'm saying. J-Lo is a performer. We want to see you perform, dance, sing. She's a performer. She's a performer.
Starting point is 01:08:55 So you wasn't feeling the vocals? No. And I love J-Lo, but just stop hiring her to do these things where you have to display her vocal ability. That's not her strong suit, T? Yeah, that's not her strong suit? That's not her strong, yeah, that's not her strong hand. That's all I'm saying. She looked great.
Starting point is 01:09:09 She looked amazing. Of course. Always. You just got to get better, some better vocalists to do these type of engagements is all. So you're saying women are to be seen
Starting point is 01:09:15 and not heard? No, that's not what I'm saying. That's not what I'm suggesting. I think you're saying J-Lo. Just shut up. Only J-Lo should be seen and not heard. I'm just saying
Starting point is 01:09:22 we should play to people's strength and not their weaknesses. So you're saying J-Lo was fired when she started performing? No, just play to people's strengths. That's all. Get somebody up there that's vocally strong. Like Garth Brooks.
Starting point is 01:09:33 Hey. He actually did good. Hey, I'm not mad at Garth. You know what I mean? Now I think about it, Trump maybe did have a point. Chrisette Michelle can really sing. I'm sorry?
Starting point is 01:09:42 I mean... Maybe Trump is a better A&R than Biden. He has a better ear? Oh, my God. Did Crescent Michelle agree to that money? Yes, she did. Listen, all the legend. She said she didn't.
Starting point is 01:09:58 I don't know. She did. She took that $250,000 right away. I don't know you guys. Yes, she did. Absolutely. Shout out to Crescent. I didn't know the guys. Yes, she did. Oh, shout out to Corsette. I didn't know the inauguration was something that I was supposed to be watching until everybody
Starting point is 01:10:09 that was calling and texting was like, yo, I'm watching inauguration. So I was like, all right, I'll cut it on. Yeah, it was a full day. I didn't realize it was a full day event like that. My mom got real spicy with me when I said, no, I'm not watching. Why did they do that? Got really mad at me. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:21 I was like, I'll catch the highlights. Yeah. I was like, I don't need to watch this. I wanted to just see. I wasn't really watching for the inauguration, but I was watching to see them escort Donnie Don out the White House when they pulled out the little miniature red carpet, put it in the back of the White House, like seven dudes out there sad.
Starting point is 01:10:37 Yeah. Poor Joe Exotic, man. He thought he was coming home? Why? They say he had a limo out there. Yeah. You writing it down right? A little flag, flaggy flag? It was a stretch hummer or some shit.
Starting point is 01:10:51 He said he has hair and makeup done in prison, which I'll leave my thoughts. Yo, pull up what Joe Exotic said when he didn't get released. Because he thought he was alerting us that the Don doesn't care about us. Fam, you can't think that the Don is releasing you and then when it don't happen, you come to tell us he don't care. No, we was telling you. Imagine getting your hair and makeup done to get out of prison and then you don't. And now you sitting in the day room with hair and makeup looking like a snack. You're just fine in prison now.
Starting point is 01:11:25 You fucked. You need to get out. That's how fine in prison now. You fucked. You need to get out. That's how my exes that wanted to leave felt. Always takes it there. I understand. They was getting all done up to break up. Where you going? Come on, let's work it out.
Starting point is 01:11:38 I love you. I love you still. Do we ever get into the breakup photo shoot? I love you still. In the two months that we wasn't on the best terms, all the bitches I met, They don't compare to you So I'm back I'm back
Starting point is 01:11:50 That's great when you learn That the new bitches Don't compare to the bitch You fucked it up with Come here pumpkin Come here stinkums Did the breakout photo shoot Work on you
Starting point is 01:12:01 That'd be working That shit works That shit works It's effective Why do they do that? Well, from what I've heard, they say they just
Starting point is 01:12:08 feel really down and they need a confidence booster for themselves. They need a bunch of dudes to like them. Just to show that I feel pretty again. See what you can't play?
Starting point is 01:12:14 A bunch of dudes to inbox them, yo, I'll smash them cakes. See what you can't play? You can't play with me like that because I'll come off that shit. Like,
Starting point is 01:12:22 if enough niggas is liking you, I'll get home like, woo, woo, woo. Joe Exotic was saying something. All right, see. Like, if enough niggas is liking you, I'll get home like, whoo, whoo, whoo. Joe Exotic was saying something. All right, I was too. All right, this is Joe Exotic. I was too innocent and too gay.
Starting point is 01:12:33 All right, bro, you're staring at me, so come on, let's get to it. What's up? What do you want to say? Get your shit up. You be getting off to dudes liking your chick? 1,000%. I like when my woman is desirable to people. I like that. Okay. I don't like a partner that's not desirable to people. I like that.
Starting point is 01:12:45 I don't like a partner that's not desirable to people. That's reasonable. Do you? No. I like a partner that's desirable to me. Yo, let's stop. No more hip-hop talk. Come on.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Joe Exotic wasn't hip-hop. Okay, go ahead. He wasn't? He had an album. He put an album out. He had merch. That is true. He had merch. He had true. He had merch.
Starting point is 01:13:06 He had merch. He had merch. I was looking for one of them teams. No, Griselda versus Joe Exotic. Who are you taking? I was looking for a Joe Exotic. Oh, we're getting a Griselda next. I'm glad you said that.
Starting point is 01:13:14 Come on, Rory, unpack this. You like a woman to be desirable to you. Explain that to me. I think that kind of goes without saying. I would like to desire my partner. Of course. I think what Rory is saying is that it's kind of weird that you, Joe, get off from guys liking your girl.
Starting point is 01:13:32 And your people. Anybody. Oh, okay. Not just guys. If my partner is desirable and turns heads. You want a woman that's attractive. That turns me on. I think that's kind of normal.
Starting point is 01:13:45 You might have worded it in a way that was a little weird. Being attracted to women that are deemed attractive to other people. But I think what Rory is saying to me is a myth. That's the only reason I paused right there. I don't think men believe. I want you to be desirable to me. And me only. I don't believe that
Starting point is 01:14:02 men are trained that way. To me only, of course not. I don't think I have the most eclectic taste that I think only I find this woman attractive. Of course I'm sure other people find her attractive. Oh, you're just making fun of me because it turns me on. Yes. No, of course. Because there's chicks
Starting point is 01:14:18 that most people think are the super baddest chicks in the world that aren't my taste. So I don't get off because a bunch of dudes like that girl that got horrible surgery right like that's just not for me i don't get off because other dudes like her right you got it right got it no of course i'm sure all women that we've dated or date are attractive to more than just us and that's why i'm here that's that's how I got here to this take that y'all might think is weird
Starting point is 01:14:46 because I've dealt with the girl when you walk in ain't nobody pay you no mind at all pay her not an inch of attention hey Joe what's up man go ahead man just go ahead
Starting point is 01:14:55 hey Joe just go ahead hey Joe hey Joe if you want to use the bathroom for two hours you can anybody gonna do
Starting point is 01:15:01 nothing to your girl anybody gonna talk to her try to pass her a number on a paper towel nothing none of the stuff that niggas do she will she will be just fine if you leave her there for hours and that'd be the girl that you leave for hours and come back and say you left me for hours bitch you wasn't gonna do nothing these niggas don't want you he's a real lot dope boys in here you ain't got enough he's dead he's ain't the fake dope boys those are real
Starting point is 01:15:22 niggas bitch you got a little way to go. You were safe. All right, I was too innocent and too gay to deserve a pardon from Trump. Say you're quoting somebody. I'm trying to help you, bro. Yeah, that transition was a little... It was a crazy transition. I'm doing it as a friend. These are Joe Exotic's words, not Joe Button's words. Who's also exotic.
Starting point is 01:15:43 And innocent and gay. Now you read it. You read it now. I don't want to read it no more. I'm done. I was way too innocent and too gay in capital letters to deserve a pardon from Trump. I only matter to Don Jr. By the way, sick sentence.
Starting point is 01:16:01 When he needed to make a comment about me to boost his social media posts. Boy, were we all stupid to believe he actually stood for equal justice. His corrupt friends all come first. Wasn't Joe Exotic didn't he go to jail for trying to set up a murder? I believe that was. That's a little different than you know I sold some weed. And also like shooting a bunch of animals. I think
Starting point is 01:16:20 there was some animal abuse. Sorry gays. You can't get this one. Yeah. Yeah the gays. You can't get this one. Yeah. Yeah, the gays can get a lot, but. Not Joe Exotic's freedom? Not Joe Exotic. Not killing animals. No. Why did he think he was coming out, though?
Starting point is 01:16:34 And why did he think that Don actually cared about whatever he was talking about? Well, he seems like they're kind of in the same. Don said, I mean, not Don. Joe Exotic was seeing Snoop put a call. And he's like, you know what, man? I'm calling, too. If Snoop put a call and he's like you know what man I'm calling too if Snoop calling fuck
Starting point is 01:16:47 let me call my man Don Joe Exotic doggy style you gotta sit up you gotta go sit that one out Joe Exotic gotta sit that one out but now explain it to me
Starting point is 01:16:56 Wayne wasn't in jail I mean maybe Joe Biden might get him out he had caught the whatchamacallit gun charge recently but he wasn't in jail no
Starting point is 01:17:02 so see I'm stupid so when you tell me pardon, I think you're letting somebody out of jail. But you get rid of the case. I guess so. Remember he took a plea right away and everyone's like, oh wow, okay. That's kind of crazy. He said guilty immediately. Because he had this plan
Starting point is 01:17:17 already. He talked to Don Don. Yeah. But according to Wayne's lawyer, he did not talk to Donald Trump to get pardoned. All right. And a lawyer has never lied. No, no. Or a rapper.
Starting point is 01:17:30 Or the president. Or a Republican. Also, Wayne came out and was like, okay. You putting two and two together now? He did a verse for me for free. No doubt. I love Wayne. If there's something to be said about him, then Noriego or one of the other podcasts,
Starting point is 01:17:45 I'm sure, will do an amazing job covering it. Elliot Academic. Somebody will. Yeah, get to it. My Trump partner, Kodak Black, and Kwame Kilpatrick in Detroit. There's a few names up there that we may recognize.
Starting point is 01:18:01 Listen, man. Ghost should try to stay alive. What? He would have been all right. listen man Ghost should try to stay alive what? he would have been a height Ghost he could have let him off the hook you know Trump would get pardoned pardon Ghost
Starting point is 01:18:15 yeah they say Ghost was so happy when he was with Angela he was running around the street dancing on phone poles I think it was miserable at home Angelo, he was running around the street, dancing on phone poles. I think it was miserable at home.
Starting point is 01:18:31 Yeah, when you go back and really get into power. I got to watch at least season one again. He was so happy to bump into her in a club. Yeah. It's his high school love. Thought Tasha went to fuck the driver. Yo, have you fucked my driver, fam... Don't do soul like that.
Starting point is 01:18:49 I'm about to say, soul back there. Soul back there blaming your queen. Right? Why is blaming so funny? Blaming is funny. Blaming is funny. Oh, Joe, coming around the corner now. Right here. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:19:05 Ten minutes. Yeah, he hit me yesterday. I'm praying. Yeah, I know. I'm praying. I'm praying. You're lucky I got no pussy around, god damn it. I heard somewhere that part of the reason Power came to an abrupt ending, even though
Starting point is 01:19:19 it wasn't abrupt, it was five really successful seasons, is that Amari had, there was some tension between him and Courtney. Courtney? Yeah. Okay. I don't know how true that is and I'm not one to gossip. Sometimes.
Starting point is 01:19:32 Yeah, I love gossip. Yeah. I do. Look at Tasha. Harlot. All right, so I don't have anything to say about the inauguration.
Starting point is 01:19:40 I watched it. I watched Trump leave. Beautiful. J-Lo, beautiful. Lady Gaga, beautiful, beautiful outfit. Gaga kills. Gaga kills anytime she shows up somewhere. That's true. I watched Trump leave. Beautiful. J-Lo, beautiful. Lady Gaga, beautiful, beautiful outfit. Tom Hanks, beautiful. Gaga kills.
Starting point is 01:19:46 Gaga kills anytime she shows up somewhere. That's true. I'm on to Gaga. Gaga has made her way to my White Hall of Fame. Sure. She's up there. Yeah. She's there.
Starting point is 01:19:54 She's solid. She's there for me. She does a good job. And she got into her little Juilliard bag, got into her opera. The pace kept changing. The tone. Gaga's real like she's the real deal
Starting point is 01:20:06 she's legit for sure and I maybe wasn't so aware of that when she was the biggest artist in the world well she was doing dance music so you don't necessarily
Starting point is 01:20:13 translate that to she's the real deal but she but if you hear her records you know her records yeah oh no I know yeah
Starting point is 01:20:20 right that's that shit that's the shit Yeah. Right? That's that shit. That's the shit. Hey, when that song was out, what year was that? Probably 2010, maybe. Somehow they were still, oh yeah, Slaughterhouse. They were trying to get me to, I was at award shows still somehow. And that was Slaughterhouse.
Starting point is 01:20:45 Yeah, that was Slaughterhouse. Yeah, that was Slaughterhouse. We was at award shows and when Lady Gaga came, like, they pushed the A-listers out the way is what I'm trying to say. That's Gaga. That's Gaga coming.
Starting point is 01:20:55 Same thing they do when Rihanna comes now. Like, it's some of them where you A-listers have to move. Sorry, Slaughterhouse. There's not enough room here. Yeah, you guys can go get a beverage now.
Starting point is 01:21:06 But I don't even like how y'all praising this white woman and tearing down J-Lo, but that's cool. Well, Gaga can sing. I thought you were about to say, and tearing down slaughterhouse, but... No, we can tear you guys down. That's fine.
Starting point is 01:21:22 You tore them down. I did not tear them down. I'm about to say, what are you talking about? I didn't. Okay. I had a really great time watching the inaugurations, whatever it's called. Sure. The inauguration, awesome, wonderful, cool.
Starting point is 01:21:42 Listen, y'all want to talk about everything but Griselda. Look, all of a sudden. Let's talk about it. Talk about it then. You are inside. Give it to me. It's trolling. That's all it is.
Starting point is 01:21:52 He's done this before. Yeah. It's just trolling. It's a lie. Has he? I don't believe that for one second. That's a lie. I didn't know.
Starting point is 01:21:58 Stop it, man. Peg, I'm on your way as a troller. Call one of the niggas and let me hear them say I'm trolling. He's trolling. He's done this before. This is just him fucking around. Like, nigga, we not like the rest of these niggas.
Starting point is 01:22:12 We not beefing. Like, we're family for real. He's just having fun on the internet. Them niggas ain't beefing, man. He's done this before. This is nothing new. He's done this before. Trust me on that.
Starting point is 01:22:22 They're legitimately family. Yeah. Trust me on this. This is trolling. They're not beefing. What me on that. They're legitimately family. Yeah. Trust me on this. This is trolling. They're not beefing. What does that mean? I've definitely beefed my family. Yeah, I don't understand.
Starting point is 01:22:30 What is Parks talking about? No, no, no. But they're not beefing. This is him just fucking with the fans. They're not beefing. You can see a lot of people, even in the comments, is like, yo, y'all really feeding into this. He does this a lot.
Starting point is 01:22:45 Okay. See? James Harden didn't get it. Stop tro really feeding into this. He does this a lot. Okay. See? James Harden didn't get it. Thank you. James Harden's sad. Well, Maul is their publicist and you can never really
Starting point is 01:22:51 take a publicist's statement for real. No, you just, you can just tell when certain shit is just like, all right.
Starting point is 01:22:59 Okay, so my new question is then why doesn't he stop? Because he's not just affecting the people that you're trying to get it to affect.
Starting point is 01:23:08 Like now, there are fans of yours that are confused. Yeah, but most of the fans know he's trolling is what I'm saying. Some may be like, what really?
Starting point is 01:23:14 So what is the point in confusing 15% of your fans? I'm not saying it's a point. I just don't get it. He's just probably like, yo, y'all really think
Starting point is 01:23:22 that we beefing about, what is there to beef about? Like we all do and all things. Come on, we'll stop that. I'm just saying like, yo, y'all really think that we beefing about, what is there to beef about? Like, we all doing our thing. Well, there's always. Now, come on, Moe. Stop that. I'm just saying, with them, they're all successful. They're all putting out music whenever they want.
Starting point is 01:23:32 We've seen the most successful groups beef. I'm not talking about them, but there's many reasons why a group would beef. Yeah, when things aren't. So when you troll that way. Yeah, but when you feel like, but most beefs happen in groups when someone feels like I'm not able to create or I can't put out shit when I want, I can't do this,
Starting point is 01:23:47 I can't, they don't have that problem. These niggas drop whenever they want to drop. Like, what would they be beefing about? You could still have internal problems with your family.
Starting point is 01:23:55 You can, absolutely. Not music related. And I'm sure they have internal problems, but it's nothing like I'm not Griselda and I don't fuck with them
Starting point is 01:24:01 and they don't fuck with me. it's not that sweet. We watched Q-Tip and fife rest in peace publicly beef and they they consider themselves family they knew each other since they were in kindergarten i watched public enemy public uh publicly beef yeah but we know why they i watch mad groups publicly beef is all i'm saying you know we didn't know we didn't know what you're saying this and i'm reading this i could read it through those eyes i could read it and see it as trolling but what i'm saying is why cause that reading this. I could read it through those eyes. I could read it and see it as trolling.
Starting point is 01:24:25 But what I'm saying is, why cause that state of confusion for the people that will be fooled that way? I didn't know that until you said that. Well, if you followed him, he's done this. Conway has done this before. And to your question, these days and ages,
Starting point is 01:24:39 yeah, this type of shit is what people want. Do you know how much those guys like wrestling? Yes, I do. So you know how much those guys like wrestling? Yes, I do. So you're saying they're pulling from the old wrestling playbook. I mean, it seems that way to some degree. This is the type of shit fans like in music now, man. Alright, let's say I'm subscribing
Starting point is 01:24:57 to what y'all are saying. What data shows me that this is effective? But I don't think everything is done to be effective. 161 quote tweets. 2,000 likes. Yeah, like, I don't think he's doing this for data or to
Starting point is 01:25:14 work. I think he was just doing it fucking with the fans. Yeah, he's just on his Twitter. It worked, so he kept going. Yeah, y'all think that we beefing? What the fuck are we beefing about? I don't like it. No, but you ain't gotta like it. I don't even like fake beefing. But this is, this isn you This isn't current though This is what Five days ago
Starting point is 01:25:27 That's current Six days ago That's current That's not current online Word Online time On your timeline Six days ago is not current
Starting point is 01:25:36 If a nigga shot at you Five days ago You have current beef That's not on the timeline No no no That's real life You're in a beef currently Yeah yeah but that's not
Starting point is 01:25:42 You shouldn't come pod You should go They might bust through this window. Yeah, but that's like you trying to kill me. You can't shoot someone on a timeline. Yeah, no. I'm talking about just fucking with the fans on the internet. All right.
Starting point is 01:25:52 You guys got it. Yeah. You guys got it. Bullshit. Glad to see that you're trolling and none of this is serious. That's the important part. But Conway has two amazing artists that he's working with, though. That's going to be a problem.
Starting point is 01:26:02 That's a fact. Love the Genius and Jay Skis are super talented. Super, super talented. I'm really excited to hear more of their stuff. But yeah, this is just troll. Got it. Does somebody want to catch me up to date with the Danny Lay debacle or nah? Seems like they dug up an old tweet or something.
Starting point is 01:26:21 No, she put out a song, I believe. No, not an old tweet. Don't try to old tweet it. Oh, I thought it was an old tweet they found. You know she put out a song, I believe. Yeah, not an old tweet. Don't try to old tweet it. Oh, I thought it was an old tweet they found. You know, that's what they do now. Oh, Danny Lee's comments are being flooded with backlash
Starting point is 01:26:30 over her new song, Yellow Bone. That's what he want. Oh. So they're beefing over preference. That's always one of those. People can have preferences. You can, but you can't say it. Why not?
Starting point is 01:26:43 Because you can't. You can't say what your preference is? Nope. Oh, okay. I see people do it all the time, every day. Shouldn't.

Starting point is 01:28:07 But I'm saying I wouldn't assume that she was singing the lyrics that were in question. And even if those are the lyrics you're singing, I'm not listening to it. Yellow Bone, that's what he want? Yeah. What is the problem with that? Play the song. Let's hear it. Maybe the cadence changes it.
Starting point is 01:28:23 Maybe the beat got hit at the baseline? Yeah, man, let's see how she said it. Maybe she did sing it. Well, she's hear it. Maybe the cadence changes it. Maybe the beat got hit at the baseline? Yeah, man. Let's see how she said it. Maybe she did sing it. Well, she's a singer, right? I believe so. She raps too, though. Yes.

Starting point is 01:49:56 What a guy. No doubt. Shout out to Rowdy. Absolutely. Welcome home. So I finished the Tiger Woods doc. Me too. Really good documentary.
Starting point is 01:50:07 It's been a hard sell In my household So I gotta watch it By myself sometime Why? Why would that be a hard sell? Tiger Woods doc Really? It's not really about sports
Starting point is 01:50:14 Oh yeah Oh well It's hard to convince a woman That a documentary About an athlete Is not about sports Gotcha And a cheater
Starting point is 01:50:21 Rim Come on Rim Women look past all his greatness. Women are fucking, oh my God. Yeah, but he won 70 world titles. I don't care. He's literally done something that no one has ever done. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:50:36 Yeah, but he was 35 when he did it, so. Did you see him birdie that hole? He's allowed to fuck that girl. Oh my God. Jesus, Mary and Joseph. So break it down. I don't care about spoilers. I don't think there's really spoilers.
Starting point is 01:50:49 I think I... He just didn't know how to cheat. That's what you got from the doc? You mean when you call in the voicemail and say, hey, this is Tiger Woods. Can you delete my number out of your phone? Because I've been cheating. He fell asleep and left his phone.
Starting point is 01:51:04 No, no, no. Out in the open. Yeah. See? See, I can't say nothing because Joe has witnessed me fall asleep with my phone on my chest. And you ain't with no majors. And brought a hurricane into his living room. Yeah, you wasn't even home when that happened.
Starting point is 01:51:17 So imagine what they'll do when they're home. I'm just saying, watching it, I had a different view and appreciation of what you have to go through with stage parents. Is that the right term? Yeah. I touched on that briefly.
Starting point is 01:51:33 Yeah. Pause. But the cheating part, like, he liked her. Well, that's what really makes it cheating. No, but he didn't. He liked all of them. He gave all of them the same line. It was the same shit. But see, that's the really makes it cheating. No, but he didn't. He liked all of them.
Starting point is 01:51:45 He gave all of them the same line. But see, that's the thing. It was painted like Tiger Woods was a womanizing sex addict. Aren't we all? No. I'm joking. And I didn't get that from him. If I have stage parents and I'm sheltered my whole fucking life
Starting point is 01:52:03 and you're not allowing me to do anything, and then I become the man and it works. I'm fucking. And now you're not in my, dad is not in my corner anymore. Actually, dad passed away. Rest in peace. Rest in peace. And I'm going to cut you off.
Starting point is 01:52:17 His father could not defend himself, but his father's friend talking about Tiger's father around him. Just grabbing a bunch of chicks. They had a little duck off spot, and Tiger watched his dad fuck mad bitches. Oh, so he's a chip off the old block. He watched it as a child. He's his father's son. Bam.
Starting point is 01:52:35 Tiger Woods went to Lotus or Cheetah or Up and Down. He went to Griffin. Or one of the clubs. Tiger did not go to Up and Down. It was Griffin. It looked like Up and Down when they showed it. No, it was Griffin. But Up and Down wasn't there. Was it Griffin, really? It was Griffin. Tiger looked like up and down when they showed it. No, it was Griffin. But up and down wasn't it?
Starting point is 01:52:45 Was it Griffin really? It was Griffin. Tiger was in Griffin? Yeah. I must have missed one Griffin night then. I'm just saying he goes there a man long ago, bags the young lady, uses her number not even 10 minutes after he gets it,
Starting point is 01:53:04 and starts a relationship. I'm never home. Meet me in Orlando. My wife don't know but so much, and I can't speak to her. Ladies, that's the recipe for cheating. Why do women always act like cheating is just like, oh my God, how could you do that?
Starting point is 01:53:21 There's mad reasons I did that. I've been trying to talk to you in this house for fucking years. I can't. I'm the world's biggest athlete everywhere but in this house. Sorry. I'm calling to say to you, Mimi and Orlando, are you free? Just get there. Yo, I can't win without you is what he said.

Starting point is 02:00:47 Because you have to have the subtitles on that, obviously. Yeah, yeah. But this is one of the few shows that I actually enjoy the subtitles. I like subtitles. I put subtitles on with English TV sometimes. I had to have subtitles on with Peaky Blinders because the accent was too heavy. Do y'all think beautiful coffins are a waste of money? Yes.
Starting point is 02:01:04 Why? Beautiful coffins? Because it's gone in the ground anyway? Yeah. I mean, for me personally, give me the cheap shit. But I mean, if someone wants a fancy one, God bless. I'm cool. Put me in a box.
Starting point is 02:01:14 When we went to the- Don't put me in the dirt. That's a beautiful- Burn me up. That is a beautiful- Scatter me about. Whatever this is, it's beautiful. That's crazy.
Starting point is 02:01:20 That's a beautiful right there. Yeah, that's crazy. When my grandfather was dying, rest in peace, Willie Button, the greatest. When he was dying, that's when I found out just how much caskets cost. Yeah. That's also when I found out they had used caskets at Costco's. Wait, how does that work exactly? You go on Costco's.com?
Starting point is 02:01:40 No, no. Type in used caskets. Where do you procure the used? They use it for the funeral. Then they take them out of it, put them in just a regular box. A regular wood box. No, it's actually a common, common thing. I'm sure.
Starting point is 02:01:53 That's fly. Well, dying is expensive. Funerals are expensive, for sure. Dying is expensive here. Yeah. That's why I'd be so, not I'd be scared, but I've heard horror stories of people dying abroad. Uh-huh. So not I'd be scared, but I've heard horror stories of people dying abroad and just some of the some of the rules and legalities when transporting a body from one place to another place. You have to deal with the different laws and they bang you over the head.
Starting point is 02:02:21 I'm sure it's expensive and not everybody has it. Yeah. Oh, no. I'm thinking if I die somewhere, man, the living people can fly where I had an accident. Leave me there. No shipping me around. Leave me in London. That's the one flight I'm not going to be happy when I land.
Starting point is 02:02:36 Oh, long flight. Yeah, I didn't mean to do that. That was totally a mistake. I'm not that insensitive. Yeah. Turn this commercial off because I want to try to find time to watch this. I just wanted to let the people know that Gamora's back. That's my shit.
Starting point is 02:02:45 What else do we got that is important? Let me see. Let me see. Rest in peace to Hank Aaron. Oh. That's where I was going next. Yes. Rest in peace to the legend.
Starting point is 02:02:58 Died at 86 years old. I'm sure they haven't told us how yet. Sleep? Good. Died peacefully in his sleep. All right. And there's, you know, the internet is going to internet this. I'm sure they haven't told us how yet. Sleep? Good. Die peacefully in his sleep. All right. And there's, you know, the internet is going to internet.
Starting point is 02:03:14 There's things going around because he just received the COVID vaccine six days ago. And then he passed today. So, you know, the internet is going. Don't do that. I'm not doing that. I'm not doing that. That's what the internet. I'm just saying, you know, the internet is going to internet. I am urging, listen, while we have Fauci on and I'm conflicted, I don't think I'm taking it, but I certainly urge both my parents to take it.
Starting point is 02:03:30 Yeah. And anybody else that's over 60. Yeah. Or if you have a compromised immune system or if your family members have a compromised immune system or. Hank Aaron, 86, this is a long, beautiful life. It's sad because you never want to lose one of our heroes this way, but it's even sadder because it instantly brought me back to Kobe's passing late January this time last year.
Starting point is 02:03:58 I was like, no, don't start this again. Don't you go taking our black sports icons away. Rest in peace to Hank Aaron. Yes, absolutely. Prayers, love, and condolences to his friends, family, and loved ones. And thank you. Thank you for his contributions to not just sports, just to our culture, our people, and everything that he had to endure and fight for and withstand
Starting point is 02:04:23 so that we can freely go to ballparks and watch games and stuff like that and even play. Yeah, no, he's a legend for sure. We had the two-hour mark. I tried to breeze by this topic, but fuck it, I'll ask you. Did y'all hear about them trying to kill my baby over Usher cover? Snow Allegra? Did you remind me? I didn't see it. No, I didn Usher cover. Snow Allegra. She did You Remind Me.
Starting point is 02:04:45 I didn't see it. No, I didn't hear it. I'm shocked I missed it. Was it not up to par? She didn't do a good job? It was a different vibe. It was a different vibe. I would expect that, though.
Starting point is 02:04:55 It was different. I would expect that. Yeah, but she probably tried. The internet probably thinks she tried to do too much jazz mataz or tried to make too different. But she's kind of a jazz singer. Yeah, I know. A little bit. I know. They probably think she tried to do too much jazz mataz or tried to make but she's kind of a jazz singer yeah i know a little bit i know they probably think she tried to do too much with this but i mean with a record that big just doing the cover is pointless like yeah if you're not
Starting point is 02:05:16 gonna jazz it up and again i haven't heard this i could hate it i don't know but i it's just very you have to jazz up that type of shit. It's a fucking classic record. If you're not going to do it differently, why bother doing the cover? Yeah. Because that, that the original, you remind me is just a whole different vibe from what snow is anyway.
Starting point is 02:05:36 True. So she would have to change it to make it live the way she lives. Or you can leave it alone. Well, that's always an option. Or you can leave it alone. That's true. Like you're not forced into doing it. But if always an option. Or you can leave it alone. That's true. Like you're not forced
Starting point is 02:05:46 into doing it. But if you love the song and you're a great singer like she is, I could see why you might want to cover it. And also back to what we were talking about
Starting point is 02:05:53 with adapting to the times of being an artist during quarantine and corona. Gotta get some content out there. I can't perform. I gotta shoot some shit. I'm not ready to put out new music,
Starting point is 02:06:04 but I gotta feed my fans. But I love you remind me, so I'll put that out. Shout out to Snowman. Whatever the location this is, it's amazing where they shot this. She could have shot this in Sweet Chicken. She would look beautiful. Look at that. That's not bad. That's Staten Island, right?

Starting point is 02:08:01 Some aren't really celebrities, but this boxing shit bag that's happening, this is going to become a thing. It better stop. It only takes one or two people to show people a new way to get money before everyone else attempts it.

Starting point is 02:10:33 This one confused me when I read it. Which quickly, by the way, this is going to sound real ignorant. Then don't say it. It's more asking. You have a choice. Elon Musk became the richest man in the world the other day over Jeff Bezos yeah they're going back and forth what does
Starting point is 02:10:47 Elon Musk sell cause I've only seen like 50 Teslas in my life oh you gotta get out more spaceships I don't know what he does that's the one I saw he had a flamethrower
Starting point is 02:11:00 and I like when he talks spaceships are really fucking expensive and then he built a subway in LA that I can't ride. Yeah. Spaceships is what I'm just talking. I have no idea what he does.

Starting point is 02:29:42 So if sleep is the cousin of death then Naturally naps are the nephew's anarkolepsy Which will inevitably destroy your agility When being sedentary becomes the sun of senility It's becoming virtually impossible to cope When I gargle with the lotion and brush my teeth with the soap Scoop, how I left my cell in the refrigerator My brain used to contain about a thousand gigs of data, now I'm watching new Al Pacino flicks screaming
Starting point is 02:30:09 Attica, Attica, vexed on the floor doing stretches for my sciatica, wide awake, staring at late night, watching the roots perform like, wait, it's not Alex Haley in Africa, fragment of thoughts on a non-linear thread, beautiful sentiments get deferredred after the blends So please can you forgive me if these words are never said But trust me that they're there but they get stuck inside my head when I say Even when I lost I hear The sweetness of your charm I'd never let go again If I could hold you in my arms I love you, love you
Starting point is 02:31:00 I love you, love you I'm not a fool, I'm a chicken There's another minute of guitar solo there, but that's Pharoah Munch in 13 and Misha. Hey, shut up. We're recording. That sounded great, Park. Shout out to Pharoah. I can't wait to listen to the album.

Starting point is 02:33:22 Man, what did you do here? Where's the thing I'm going to do? I'm helping people enjoy music, TV shows, and podcasts. What is this? I never even heard this. What's happening? What am I listening to? I don't know.
Starting point is 02:33:31 What is that noise? Is that Spotify? Does it hack me? Rory. You put Spotify on his computer and it loots away? Rory. I'm lining Joe with Spotify. Rory, don't put Spotify on my laptop.
Starting point is 02:33:45 Y'all saw Palmface when I said Spotify? He almost had a conniption. Hey, I love you guys. Everybody's mad at Spotify. While we're at it. I saved that to the very, very end so you guys wouldn't call me a bitter ex. Why are they mad? They're mad at the ads.
Starting point is 02:34:07 All that stuff that we were ahead of the beef with. They're mad. They're just ad raping you. Yeah. Gross. Well, that part, and there was another article about Anchor and their participation in some of the ads and how it's been an epic fail all that shit that
Starting point is 02:34:27 them niggas were saying to me for two years about ads it was an ad fight for two years ads is gonna be that that's gonna be the fight in podcasting for the next few years and either on a thursday episode or a saturday episode i'm gonna address it one day like the same way we was talking about uh the first studio we recorded at when they tried to rob us. One day I'm going to come in and just tell the story of everybody trying to rob us.
Starting point is 02:34:52 Like what some of these people were talking about with like the video. Yeah. That was another big thing too with the video over there on Spotify. There was an article
Starting point is 02:35:01 coming out on that. But it's like, listen, if you're a podcaster and you don't care about the user experience then are you a podcaster like that's joe's question because it's like we could all make video and fucking give it away for 10 cent on the dollar and if we all do that then the new value of your video is 10 cent for a dollar we'll get into this thursday or saturday or something like that not at the end of this episode it's too valuable and with that said
Starting point is 02:35:28 is there anything we're forgetting rest in peace to Hank Aaron one more again of course rest in peace to Kobe Bryant one more again yeah it's coming up
Starting point is 02:35:37 yeah that's gonna be tough it is it is I hope the media honors Vanessa's wishes she doesn't want any images of the crash to air that day so I'm hoping that the media does that and
Starting point is 02:35:51 respects that well considering there's a lawsuit against the helicopter company maybe that wouldn't happen and that would be classless anyway and I believe there was a lawsuit against the cops yeah that gave that to the media. Shit, I would just wish the media would not post that, period. Right. Like, to begin with. Even if it's not a beloved hero. Period, yes. Like, don't post people that are dead.
Starting point is 02:36:15 Crashes. Like, I don't. Yeah. No, man. I knew all bets were off when the nigga sold King Bond's autopsy photo. Yeah. You ever think about that I think like for all the all of for your work for all of the effort that you put into who you who you be right your identity your namesake like then when
Starting point is 02:36:43 you die yeah but that's a little different With that situation Because of things that happened While He was alive Things that were said So that you know It was a lot of people
Starting point is 02:36:54 That just had animosity And envy And hate in their hearts For him so The coroner? That's just a real fear How people treat you When you're not here
Starting point is 02:37:03 To speak for yourself Right Yeah It's scary to me That's like a different That's not a real fear, man, how people treat you when you're not here to speak for yourself. Right. Yeah. It's scary to me. Mm-hmm. That's like a different. It's not so much to me. I don't really care.
Starting point is 02:37:12 Get your shit off. Not going to bother me one bit. I know what happened. I know what time it is. The people that I love know what time it is. Well, that's how I'm going to feel. That's how I expect to feel when in this situation. Like in the afterlife somewhere.
Starting point is 02:37:25 I don't give a fuck what you niggas saying. It's only depressing. It's only depressing when you are alive and you think about that. And you're like, man, I'm repped for some of y'all, man. I mean,
Starting point is 02:37:35 Joe, I see it when I'm alive and I don't care. Like y'all can get y'all shit off. I don't, I know what the truth is. I know my loved ones know what the truth is. They know who I am. I don't give a fuck but it's
Starting point is 02:37:45 still it's still about it's still about your loved ones though because they have they're the ones that's still here to have to deal with that have to hear that have to see those things oh they just have respect for the family so that's why i have respect for the family that's my point is a separate point yeah but i agree yeah you shouldn't do any of that shit no you shouldn't sell an autopsy photo when a family is grieving like right posted on the fucking internet you fucking weirdos yeah and then i just be hearing the stories of like people that find out about some of the horrific deaths of people they love through the internet it's just uh yo even back to your honor i was thinking thinking that with those 911 calls of the parents listening to their kid die.
Starting point is 02:38:28 I'm like, yeah, this is just it's tough to try to deal with that type of shit. Yeah. Like the Internet shouldn't give you that. Right. That should be your decision. But when I was. You're right, Rory. And I was thinking about that the past week
Starting point is 02:38:46 too because the internet for me has been like beautiful but all of the things that I find to be most beautiful in life can quickly turn into the most horrific thing that you've ever seen like the internet is one and now why was I thinking about this? Oh, above and below. That's why, because I'm an elements guy. Earth, wind, fire, snow, all of that fucking shit. But like, under the sea, I was watching some doc. Under the sea is so beautiful. It's also the scariest thing in the world.
Starting point is 02:39:17 Emotion is terrifying. I look up at the sky every morning. I post a picture of just the landscape. Rory calls it corny. I agree with him, but I do it anyway. And when I don't do it, Rory... No, I call it corny, I agree with him But I do it anyway, and when I don't do it Rory No I call it corny because you called me corny for doing it For so long
Starting point is 02:39:28 I'm returning the favor My view is probably 8 grand better than yours That's why I was calling it yours It's not bad I'm talking about my view now The joint you used to clown me when I used to do From my high rise That's where you are now?

I forgot why I even brought this up. Looking at the sky. Oh, when I don't post it, like people hit me. My mom hit me and said,
