Starting point is 00:06:43 Four what Four fifty nine Welcome to episode four fifty is this, four what? 459. Welcome to episode 459 of the Joe Budden Podcast. I'm your humble, grateful, gracious, and highly or lowly favorite host, Joe Budden, here with a few of my really, really, really good people. Parks is here, Ish is here, Ice is here, and whoever's in the back is in the back, but they're all here. They doing everything.
Starting point is 00:07:00 And if they're not here, somebody call me and tell me that they weren't here so I can know. Y'all were having an interesting conversation. I thought it was an interesting conversation about bodegas. And I only think it's interesting because when I first started to travel and I went to other places in America and started asking about bodegas is when I really learned how stupid I was. Why do you say that? It's when I really learned how stupid I was. Why do you say that? It's only a New York thing. I know, and it's frustrating.
Starting point is 00:07:28 I never knew that. Yeah. How would I know that? Only a New York, New Jersey thing. Yeah. But how would we know that? You know how important a bodega is? I don't want to New York this out,
Starting point is 00:07:37 but why... Everyone should have bodegas. The other places laugh at us for having bodegas. No, you can't laugh. How do you laugh at that? Well, what is the meaning of a bodega? It's a store that sells usually beer and food
Starting point is 00:07:48 and is open almost always and they always have other toilet paper and fucking dominoes and random shit. But did Webster say that? No, Parks said that. Or did we say that?
Starting point is 00:07:57 We said that, right? Oh, the definition of a bodega. That's what comes to my mind when I think of bodega. You can get something to eat, something to drink, something to smoke and random little shit whenever you want to.
Starting point is 00:08:06 And sex pills. Yeah, yeah. Horny goat weed or whatever that shit is called. Me and this used to do that shit. Me and this used to do so much wild shit, man. The actual definition of bodega is a small grocery store, especially in a Spanish
Starting point is 00:08:22 speaking neighborhood. Yeah. That kind of would sum it up. But it's more than just a grocery store. It's everything. It's all in one. Yeah, but it's the heartbeat. It's the Walmart. It's really a hood thing. It's not even a New Jersey, New York thing because when you go to the suburbs in New
Starting point is 00:08:38 Jersey, they don't have them. That's true. They got 7-Elevens and Quick Chops. But they have it in the nice parts of New York too. It's not necessarily. And Wawa's. Wawa. It's not just a hood thing. The ritzy parts of New York, too. It's not necessarily... Wawa's. Wawa. The ritzy parts of the city still have bodegas. You said you were pissed. Yeah, I ain't like that. You're not your fucking mom.
Starting point is 00:08:51 Wait, he didn't like what? The Wawa. It's the best coffee on earth. Is it really? I never had that. I'm not a Wawa-er. You should be. I enjoy them.
Starting point is 00:09:01 That coffee is different. I mean, I've grown to like them. I don't pull over when I see a Wawa. And we're not starting with Wawa stuff. We started with bodegas. What was the bodega conversation, though? No, that was their conversation. I don't know what the fuck they was talking about.
Starting point is 00:09:13 No, I said there was a bodega nearby. And I said it's not. It's a corner store. It's not a bodega. It's a corner store. I mean, it's kind of interchangeable a little bit. No, no. There are certain things that have to be in the bodega
Starting point is 00:09:26 to make it a bodega. Chico sticks, nigga. You need some Laffy Taffy's to dip candy in sandwiches. There has to be a cat. With no gloves. There has to be a cat. Laying on the bread.
Starting point is 00:09:42 I don't know what corner store you went to then. You gotta be a little. Laying on the bread. You got to be a little, I don't know what corner store you went to then because, it was, you got to be a little COVID and the chips out. You got, it got to be some risk. Oh man, some little debbies and all that.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Like yo, yes. You got to contemplate if you get robbed there. Yeah. Okay. For its officialness. Look at me,
Starting point is 00:10:00 let me stop because now we profile. We profile, no it isn't. That's not true. Is it profile if it's true? See, but it ain't true because for me, that's stop because now we profiled. We profiled. No, that's not true. Is it profiled if it's true? See, but it ain't true because for me,
Starting point is 00:10:07 that's part of being... All right, this is about to be fucked up. But that's part of the bodega. Like, part of the family feel of the bodega is knowing all the niggas that live around the area that will rob you.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Yeah. Going to papa. Yeah. Seeing you grow up. The homie, the little squad. Yeah. He seen you grow up. The homie, the little squad. Nigga literally watched you grow up. They got your pictures on the fucking bulletproof glass. The squad is sitting there playing the lottery and shit.
Starting point is 00:10:32 The bodega I went to that was right there on Bergen between, and we're moving on from this. We're not just going to stay on bodega talk. But it was on Bergen between Bentley and Harrison. Bentley and Gifford, the one you went downstairs. It was a cat in there, sandwiches. Like, I knew all the morning
Starting point is 00:10:49 stick-up kids and dope boys, because I'm in there in the morning, and you niggas are taking your kids to school. Whoever the noon shift is, y'all niggas are never gonna see me. I don't know none of y'all, but in the morning, I'm in here.
Starting point is 00:11:06 I've never seen the evening shift. No, no, no, never. I always find it weird when I see my bodega people away from the bodega, like a mile away, walking around like, yo, what are you doing over here? Why do you not know? You ain't human. Well, that's why that video a few years
Starting point is 00:11:22 ago of the young man that was the teenage boy that was brutally murdered in the Bronx when he ran into the bodega. That's why that was one of the parts that, rest in peace, that was one of the parts that really fucked me up because he ran in the bodega. Where he feels safe because these people have seen me my whole fucking life. I felt some level Of refuge there And yes I come in here Every morning before school
Starting point is 00:11:47 Probably every afternoon After school Running down here From my mother I come in from my mom Yeah milk Whatever the case may be Yeah
Starting point is 00:11:53 So yeah There is that That culture in Bodega Land Hell yeah I didn't mean to make it A morbid topic But yeah But no you're right though
Starting point is 00:12:01 Alright so moving on Ice you want to start With some of your Some of your wild bullshit or not? Nah, I don't have any. It's Friday. We can talk about whatever y'all want. Nah, they can close your bluff.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Don't think that we are confined into music talk. No, no, no. Ice got music talk. Album talk. We can talk about anything in the universe that you young men want to talk about. It wasn't a whole lot of music anyway. So. Prince got an album out.
Starting point is 00:12:27 I'm not listening to Opossum. I don't listen to Opossum. No. I'm not going for it. I cut it on. You know what? I cut it right on. Big issues all the way up to Joe Cribb.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Cut it on. And I got halfway through song one. And song two. And song three. And I skipped it with the song two. And then I was like like yo this this sounds like no it's like a purple butterfly and i just cut it off oh yeah that's exactly what it sounded like to me no no disrespect to nobody i just like nah and i cut off i read i i read the the itunes
Starting point is 00:12:58 little paragraph for the album before i even pressed free sample on the prince project how did that make you feel let me read it for you please it's hard to know what to make of the steady stream of releases to uh releases to flow from prince's legendary vaults on one hand even a casual fan can marvel at the sheer scope of his output and how he would regularly cast aside entire albums worth of songs that would be career highlights for any other artist on the other hand he was a meticulous artist with impossibly exacting standards that these songs didn't meet for whatever now unknowable reasons. So what does it mean to listen to them without his blessing? They got deep on the description.
Starting point is 00:13:39 No, that's just one way to look at it. That's just letting you know these ain't make the cut and we're trying to get some money from it. Right. Just letting you know, yo, this ain't up to par. I have never read a caption like that underneath an album, posthumous or not. They have always kind of praised or incentivized you to want to hear the project.
Starting point is 00:13:59 I thought that was the whole purpose of this paragraph. Sure. This was the first time there was doubt cast on that and while i understand their point because i did go listen to it and yeah sounds unfinished jam sessions just sounds like unfinished jam sessions or just creative tinkering yeah right doesn't sound like finished final product uh especially if you know prince the way we know and love prince but i don't know why they did that that's interesting i wonder who wrote it whoever wrote it shouldn't have wrote none of that shit i don't think well they continued welcome to
Starting point is 00:14:36 america does not offer any immediate clues as to its uh pariah status recorded in 2010 with new power generation uh these are fully realized funk r&b and rock songs often sharp and uh lyrically uh prescient prescient nothing necessarily uh revelatory or adventurous by the measure of prince's own form formidable candidate they're saying a lot of no are those crazy i don't i don't like i don't like how they wrote about it but that's all i'll say contributors excuse me it says two contributors or are you reading from that like that might be but what i get from that is is you know we just saw it happen with pop smoke's album the album comes out people who were close to him are saying yo he wouldn't have put this out he wouldn't have did it this way this is trash so
Starting point is 00:15:21 it's kind of like them getting ahead of it like we're gonna put this out tell you ahead of time yo he didn't okay this you know this was shitty scrapped we kind of like them getting ahead of it. Like, we're going to put this out, tell you ahead of time, yo, he didn't okay this. You know, this was shitty scrap. We kind of tinkered and made it our own thing. All right, so now. If you don't like it, that's why. So now I'll continue to be morbid. What do y'all think about respecting the wishes of the dead?
Starting point is 00:15:38 I think it's important. How important, though? Very. In this sense or just period? Period. How often do you think it's actually done? Like, because whatever they're saying in this paragraph about Prince, I say at every Prince tribute that they do at the award shows.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Prince has been very vocal about tributes and how he feels. And y'all doing his songs. And y'all can't fuck with me. Why is Trey Songz doing my song in front of me? He was up there like this. And now y'all gonna pan the camera on me and I'm gonna make faces
Starting point is 00:16:11 the whole time. That's exactly what he did. And every time you give me an award, I'm gonna go up there and tell the young creators that they don't need labels and fuck y'all
Starting point is 00:16:18 and fuck them and fuck everything. Right. So, eh. I don't, eh. I don't listen to Potsman's albums for that reason. I don't listen to possible songs
Starting point is 00:16:26 for that reason I don't want to hear something that they didn't want us to hear good point point blank it's a good point unless it's someone
Starting point is 00:16:36 that was maybe making the music with them and you know that they would know what they want you know what I'm saying
Starting point is 00:16:44 like I want to resist that but I'm going to take us in the geeky world. Fuck it, I'll do it. Let's ride it. Because God forbid someone I work with pass. We just watched Kanye West sell out a stadium, 50,000 people to hear unfinished music. That was his wish, though.
Starting point is 00:17:02 But no, but if you have the estate but you know prince or michael jackson or any other artist at that right uh-huh and you know how well loved they are it makes sense it's a bag so you're not emotionally attached if you own the estate or the rights to prince or michael jackson and he got 7 000 songs in the tuck my problem in that case you just brought up that's a that's a great point let me just jump in real quick park you just brought up such a great point i was a round of applause to the nba and adam silver for the tribute that they did to terrence amazing who lost his life in a car crash in April, right? And they put his picture up.
Starting point is 00:17:47 He would have been drafted. He was projected to be a top 10 pick. And I'm sure that was great for his family. But boy, did it make me really psychoanalyze what really went on. And it was troubling for my heart. No, my man was like, when you look at shit like this, because you know my nephew got drafted, but when you look at shit like this. No, my man was like, when you look at shit like this, because you know my nephew got drafted, but they like, when you look at shit like this. And we're going to, no, no, no, not congratulations.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Not congratulations. We're going to get to that. Fucked up what Ish did. Ish sanctioned his cousin to Atlanta. On the low. We're going to talk about it. Go ahead. Anyway, right? But it puts into perspective, like, yo, who gives a fuck about this draft a kid lost their life right you know what i'm saying like so well no we kind of take certain things for granted
Starting point is 00:18:31 we sitting here arguing about what number you going you know what i'm saying as opposed to saying yo we're in a blessed situation period right if you get to play under the 500 motherfuckers in the nba you're blessed dog right period like you're you're god is raining on you this boy lost his life before he could ever fulfill his dream if you if you're an adult and you come from where we come from and you're blessed enough to make it out or uh just do well for yourself to be able to provide for your family in a way that you weren't, that you didn't when you were growing up, right? Then you live with that feeling of, oh shit, this could all be gone in a second.
Starting point is 00:19:15 Like it stays there with you, right? You live with the, whatever anxiety comes with, hey, I have to stay alive long enough for this to pan out a certain way. I have to stay alive long enough for this to make sense. Not for me. I'm not even living for me no more. I'm living for my kids
Starting point is 00:19:33 and this just has to look a certain way. So yeah, they did a tribute. But when I saw it, fam, the money that went out the door, you don't think, of course you're not thinking that when you lose a child so don't get me wrong here yeah but as i'm watching it damn the generational wealth that yeah was three months away it was right there just got canceled yeah
Starting point is 00:19:57 it's out the door right i know you're dealing with a different kind of loss, but that's there. That compounds it, though. So you're right. It's compounded. Yeah, it's a draft, and what number we going? And that shit is fucking obsolete in the grand scheme of things. But to the people that make it there, it's everything. To the families, to the siblings. We talked about that Scottie Pippen story when the Jordan doc aired
Starting point is 00:20:23 about the contract disputes and the beef and who he had to take care of and provide for him. And what would you do in that spot? Just what would you do? It's easy for us to observe and fucking analyze and critique. Past judgment. Yeah. Me and Ish just had a talk similar to this. And I hope that whole rant is taken the right way.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Yeah. No, no, no. Why would it not be that's totally true like i'm definitely not saying that that should be on their mind no of course not at all me and ish just had this talk um i was telling him about a partner of mine who played in the nfl and was talking about how he wanted to join the protest and all that other stuff but he was just like yo i got too many motherfuckers that I feed. I'm feeding too many people. I can't do that, risk it, and then it be over like that. I agree with the cause, but he was like,
Starting point is 00:21:16 it's so much easier for people at home to say, yo, y'all should do this. Y'all should do that. That's true. Y'all should all band together and support Cap and do this, that, and the third. But what happens when we do? Like, it's so many people. And you're not a star. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:29 If you're not a star, you better sit your ass down. And I get it. I get it. Don't get me wrong. I get it. When he broke it down, I said, damn, dog. I didn't look at it that way. I kind of get it.
Starting point is 00:21:36 But those same people go to work every single day. And they hate their job. And hate their boss. And you don't just go in there and curse them out and quit. Right. You get what I'm saying? So, again, it's easier to pass judgment on somebody else to say
Starting point is 00:21:47 they should be doing certain things when you won't even follow that same ideology. Like, fuck out of here. Sure. It was just more so to say that one act, like you said, it could all be gone in a second. It could be gone.
Starting point is 00:22:01 So you're trying to protect that. Like, yo, this is my family like you said generational wealth kids down the line i'm gonna take the sacrifices for y'all i'm gonna take the bumps and bruises for y'all i'm like uh even mace back in the day when he was saying like yo i wore the shiny suits so my sister on harlem world didn't have to wear them you know what i'm saying like trying to like so that's what you got to do and back to posthumous albums like i will listen to someone like a pop smoke for instance or you got to do. And back to posthumous albums, like, I will listen to someone, like a Pop Smoke, for instance, or a Big L back in the day.
Starting point is 00:22:29 That posthumous album, I like to support because, like, he never had a chance to fill his shit. For someone like Prince or Michael Jackson or Pop. They were already established. They have mad albums. Like, there's a huge legacy for their family already. And I still support it being released, I guess. And it's the reason them albums ain't come out. Like, that counts. Right counts from the artistic side.
Starting point is 00:22:47 There's a reason that, yo, I didn't put this out because it ain't like I had an album, I wanted to drop it and some bullshit happened, I couldn't. No, no, no. I chose to not drop the shit. And I'm glad you're making that point because sometimes I'll listen to a posthumous album because I disagree with the artist.
Starting point is 00:23:04 What you mean? Like, Pac put a bunch of shit out after he wasn't here that he might not have wanted to go out that I thought was absolute fire and yeah, put it out.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Like, you work too much. You work too much and too hard and I get where you was going and this is close enough to it for me. Prince, I agree with the standard. If it ain't Purple Rain,
Starting point is 00:23:26 if it ain't Diamonds and Pearls, that was his bar. But I think it's different with... Kanye likes you to see the escalation of things. So maybe I don't mind him doing it. When I used to play unreleased joints all the time,
Starting point is 00:23:42 I liked for fans to be involved in that process execs and fucking label people well you was there you know they all hated me they hated me
Starting point is 00:23:49 I hated you I'm like so stop doing that shit but now look yeah but now look now look it's everybody
Starting point is 00:23:55 on Instagram to your Kanye point and your Prince point with a Prince project or a Kanye project it's musicianship uh huh right
Starting point is 00:24:04 with most rappers the lyrical content plays a huge huge part it's musicianship. Uh-huh. Right? With most rappers, the lyrical content plays a huge, huge part. That's musicianship too, though. I'm not... Okay. Definitely. But how a rapper is judged
Starting point is 00:24:14 for the most part is bars. Right. Or a big part of it is bars. Maybe. And then the music... You're right.
Starting point is 00:24:20 But I get it. You're right. You're right. But again, and then the sound and music and all of that other stuff would be second back in the day now that's primary
Starting point is 00:24:30 so when you start talking about Pac and some of that shit he still was spitting that shit true even though the beat might not have been the greatest even though the track might not have been his greatest or it might not have been mixed and added down he still was talking that shit and could hit you in the heart like whoa i put macaveli against any album ever made and he wasn't here but that was something that was he was working on
Starting point is 00:24:52 not the same not the same won't let you do it. Life After Death was about to drop. Not Machiavelli. That's not true with Machiavelli. Yes, it is. I thought that was the case. I could be wrong. Machiavelli came out in 97, right? Wasn't Machiavelli done?
Starting point is 00:25:18 I thought it was, but I could be wrong. I could absolutely be wrong. I'm just saying, even if it wasn't, even if it was towards the finish of the stage. 96 release date release date November 5th 96 he died in September 96 that album was done no we're not saying the same thing
Starting point is 00:25:34 this is what I'm saying just so we're clear I'm saying Life After Death had Big Stayed Alive was scheduled slated to drop. He was in the route of it dropping, like traveling the route of the album. Pac was not. He might have had that album finished or was working on an album,
Starting point is 00:25:55 but it wasn't on the way to being delivered to the streets. When Pac died, there was time to tinker with it and just do things to it. That's what I'm saying. One, I think, was close, was meant, was meant to sound like I wanted it to sound, and then I passed. I'm done.
Starting point is 00:26:15 I'm done. I'd have to do more research on Machiavelli. If it came out a month later, two months after he passed, in the days of Analog with Reels, that album was done. That album was done. This was not Pro Tools.
Starting point is 00:26:28 We're still pulling up the session and changing the EQ. No, this was, you had to take a day to fix a vocal. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Well, the genius of Pac is, now that it's all in hindsight,
Starting point is 00:26:41 you and I in music, how would we know? Like, listening to that album, there really is no way to know. I'm just talking about the technical. He's talking from, like, the engineering and all of that side of it. It would be nearly impossible in that era to pull it up. In that time frame, that album had to have been completed two months prior to the release. No tinkering after that.
Starting point is 00:27:01 Prior to two months to release. Highly unlikely that there was a lot of tinkering. Gotcha. If there's anybody out there that knows anything about that, I'd love to hear something. Now, back to... How do you say it? Apostimus. Apostimus. Don't try to stretch out these other topics
Starting point is 00:27:17 to avoid your shit. It's a good combo. What I'm saying, though, is as a fan of an artist, I don't care. I just want to hear it. Even if it ain't what you intended, just because I'm a fan. If I don't like it, cool. I will never turn down new music for someone I'm a fan of.
Starting point is 00:27:34 Or opportunity to potentially. I got a bunch of verses, just verses. They're not even, the songs aren't finished, anything from King Von that he was working on. I don't care if they never drop. I just like because I'm such a fan. Sure. I want to hear it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:48 I guess the dilemma for me is that when, I guess you judge people on posthumous stuff. So as a diehard fan or someone that may have known him or known someone close to him, I think it's awesome that you had the music to listen to. But when it goes out to the public and now people can shit on it or something, that's unfair to that man's legacy. Like I said with the Pop Smoke album, that's what happened. The album went out. It was unfinished stuff that his friends
Starting point is 00:28:12 and his circle was saying, yo, we don't like this. He wouldn't have liked this. This is a disrespect to him. That's important to me. But the fans, I'm talking about just a casual fan, like my little brother, huge Pop Smoke fan. He couldn't wait for that to drop. He's going to find what he likes in it and he's good.
Starting point is 00:28:29 Just because it's new music from someone that I'm a huge fan of, I'll take what I can get. I think you got to just eat it. That feeds his family. That's back to my point. When it's someone that was cut short unexpectedly, then I think it's important to support it.
Starting point is 00:28:44 I want to get important to support it. I want to get back to Parks' point, and I want to flow with him being correct about the Machiavelli album. If he's correct, then I'm more blown away by this track list than this album. Because you don't make this album and then die. And this album came out right after... Right after.
Starting point is 00:29:06 No, no, he had another album in 96 didn't he he dropped two that year i think so well while y'all look it up yes what i mean is on the intro to the macaveli album it was rumored that park is saying suge shot me right that was the big thing i remember that the conspiracy then there was hail mary where he addressed no no no that's against the law but then there's hail mary just hail mary just think about hail mary toss it up we'll skip that to live and die in la blasphemy life of an outlaw just like daddy crazy white man's world skip me and my girlfriend i don't think that's relevant to what I'm trying to say. Hold your head.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Neither that one either. And against all odds. He addressed it. Fam, do y'all understand what I'm trying to say? If Parks is right, you don't make this album and then die. But again, well. It's genius whether Parks is right. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Park is a man. This is Park we talking about remember even on the all eyes on me album where he was kind of like prophesizing i'm not gonna be here but much i do believe that people that people know and people can feel when death might be imminent right like i heard uh two gentlemen that i just refuse to ever speak about in life, but here we fucking are. Redacted and redacted. I heard redacted tell redacted, yo, I don't think that you afraid to die. I think you pictured it.
Starting point is 00:30:34 I think you saw how it plays out and you have accepted the terms of that. And now that's just how you live it. And I agree with him. Like when he said it, I was like, oh, well, yeah, that's a fact. I believe that about the gentleman, too. Have you watched? I believe there's a lot of entertainers out there, by the way. You know, when Chris Brown dropped that fucking X-Files EP, I was worried.
Starting point is 00:30:59 I expressed that. I said, whoa, whoa, whoa, are y'all listening? Future, the fans. I believe a lot of artists go through that and we gloss over it the the doc um that about redacted that dropped a couple years a year or so ago they kind of said that as well it was like yo it seems like he has this idea that i'm not gonna be here much longer and And if I go, that'll submit me. It's almost like I know it's coming,
Starting point is 00:31:27 so I'm just going to run head on into it. I'm not going to duck and hide. I'm going to embrace it if it comes. You know what's funny? Damn, I didn't think I was bumping into all of this real talk in this pod, but y'all started. I love it. Y'all started, so here we are.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Let's do it. This is, I was talking to somebody off the record. Well, if I'm on the pod, then it's on the record. Boy, the similarities for me between Redacted that we're talking about, if you're out there and pieced together in terms of how they're marketed and just presented and the appeal to children and DaBaby is so similar to me. It's super similar to me. Okay, I can see that.
Starting point is 00:32:05 And I've now segued us to DaBaby, and that's where we are. But the irony in all that's going on with DaBaby is, boy, do they make sure to put him in the brightest of colors at all times. Oh, you mean like clothing? Yeah. I know that that small tidbit flies over because it's not very important unless you know that it's important. As opposed to the gloomy shit. We'll wear it all black.
Starting point is 00:32:38 Well, slow down. Let's unpack it. Yeah. It is some real subconscious. Many years ago, all of this shit is subconscious. You have to believe in it to believe unpack it. Yeah. It is some real subconscious. Many years ago, all of this shit is subconscious. You have to believe in that to believe in it. But many years ago, I'd said on this podcast that I asked somebody why Eminem always wears
Starting point is 00:32:52 whatever sneaker that was. And they told me because there's data to support that this sneaker will appeal to this amount of people. I was like, damn, y'all went deep with it. But then you think of the president and their tie when they go out there, that same analytics
Starting point is 00:33:06 is applied to that. So it's very important. You never see the baby in something that's not colorful ever. Or shiny or something, yeah. You never see him not animated. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:20 Not exaggerated. But is this a chicken or an egg thing? Is he picked these colors because that's who he is? Or do you think it's intentional? This is intentional. This is intentional. This is intentional marketing.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Because DaBaby, his base is wide. So he has to appeal to the children the grandparents uh the gangsters he has to appeal he has to appeal to all of it he is the person that the label has chosen to appeal to everyone so now everyone's up in arms about what's going on here with uh his remarks from the stage from what i'm told he said a lot worse shit than that on the stage and it just hadn't come out oh really yeah i wasn't there so i'm gonna talk about it sure but the people that were there they said oh that's the least the way he said up there he was he was up there threatening motherfuckers up there having a blast
Starting point is 00:34:21 that's what they told me. Okay. So you just think back to everything that's occurred. I'm almost at a crossroads because I don't want to talk about all that's occurred with him, but you have to think about it. And it's been a lot.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Remember, these niggas that's running the rap game, they just got here a couple years ago. They ain't been here. Lil Baby came out in 2018, 27, something. Somewhere in there, yeah. Hey, all these niggas that's popping, it's 27, 2018, they ain't been here little baby came out in 2018 27 something
Starting point is 00:34:45 somewhere in there yeah hey all these niggas is popping it's 27 2018 somewhere around here it ain't been too long right no that's true
Starting point is 00:34:52 outside of you know when me and Ice was acting stupid on Twitter in 2010 some of the kids that are tastemakers
Starting point is 00:35:01 today was like watching it was like three what you mean today was like it was like three what you mean it was four it was five oh years old babies yeah you gotta put keep things in perspective
Starting point is 00:35:13 about just the shit you see on the internet and all that but back to the baby what as far as was documented he's done everything that you could possibly do like it's interesting that this is what's getting the reaction. He's had instances at Louis Vuitton store. Yeah. Rest in peace to that young man.
Starting point is 00:35:35 Because he passed. Instances at the hotels, people taping. We understand all of that. Instances at the show. Walkthroughs, yeah.ing. We understand all of that. Instances at the show. Walkthroughs, yeah. Instances. It's just been. It's just been.
Starting point is 00:35:50 It's a lot. It's been. It's been. It's been. You don't even get that many passes if you're not the golden child of the label. Stamp. I told you. That's what I was talking about.
Starting point is 00:35:59 You don't get that many passes. He's new here, so he may not know that he has been receiving passes buildings behind him no mad buildings behind him he he generate he generate too much money revenue well way too much way too much way too much so i mean everybody could drop them like the festivals could drop them they could drop them they could drop them to add the campaign whoever they could drop the label ain't leaving. Exactly. I said that too. The label said, all right,
Starting point is 00:36:28 more for us. Yep. Come on. It's lit. Come on, let's go throw something out right now. They not about to stop
Starting point is 00:36:34 support at all. He is, the building is behind him. What's, whatever. Keep going. So we'll have to see where this goes.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Say more shit. Keep going. I also am not sure that saying some fucked up shit like that is worthy of losing support from your label. Fam, it is. It is. It is.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Depends on how much you bring it in for the label. If you're not bringing that, the numbers in like that, you're out of here. They can't afford to lose him right now. I think we pick and choose. I think that we pick and choose. We absolutely pick and choose.
Starting point is 00:37:12 But no. The right call ain't been made. The right person ain't pick up the phone yet. Park said that he don't think it's warranted. That's why I don't know. I don't know. If it's warranted. What label is the baby on?
Starting point is 00:37:22 Any on Interscope? Y'all keep talking. What's up? No, I'm saying I don't even want to go backwards. You got it. Interscope. Universal. I don't want to go backwards, nor do I want to compare.
Starting point is 00:37:33 I'm just using it as a total reference point that he's doing whatever he's doing. And people are like, eh, maybe he shouldn't be. And then other people can do certain things and will immediately cancel them and it's not it's not cool it's not fair and again i don't want to go backwards and bring up another subject that we just recently discussed because they're not the same right and i don't want to be insensitive but we we we shit it on um tory lanes and they're not who do we society okay not me i'm just saying um and and again maybe they're not comparable because somebody causing physical harm to someone's different totally different from saying some fucked up shit isn't everybody isn't everybody in their mental health back yeah isn't that the cool thing to be mentally health
Starting point is 00:38:24 conscious and sound? Again, we can say that when you are saying certain shit, it is harmful to people. It's not the same as shooting someone. It's not? We don't know if he shot anybody. In the Mark Wahlberg argument I've been having on Twitter, running around in gangs and beating people up
Starting point is 00:38:39 because of their race. It's different levels of... He did shoot somebody. I know he did. Someone got shot. That's different levels of... that he did shoot something. I know he did. I know he did. I know he did. Someone got shot. That's a totally different statement. Sure. That's a totally...
Starting point is 00:38:49 See, the sure... That's where the problem is. See, the sure... I'm skipping this, but y'all gonna have y'all day? What's that? He shot her.
Starting point is 00:38:59 You and y'all. Hold on, hold on. Park. Don't worry about it. Just know that... Give it to me. I'm not the deliverer of the day. But your day is going to come, Parks.
Starting point is 00:39:08 You, he shot her versus she got shot are two totally different things. Your shirt didn't give what it was supposed to be giving for me. The shirt, man, I didn't say I understand. Those are two totally different statements and one of those, I'm not even about to die on this hill right now. We were talking about
Starting point is 00:39:28 a hypothetical situation. I'm chilling. We were. I know, and then Ish brought up an example that might not have been the best. No, it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:39:35 And you solidified your thought on that at any time you even hear that. Like, any time it comes up, but that's people in, in general.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Mass, mass marketing. i would have thought of conditioning i wish i could have thought of a better one and didn't even bring this back up but i was just giving an example of we pick and choose when things are accepted and not and i think a lot of that is even ran by the media and how much footage it gets how much um they spin the story again the narrator is in control when i and i know but you have to go through it to understand that that's a part of like like when i was going through whatever bullshit i was going through a million years ago right and i was losing business but i didn't really have no business so it was like who knows
Starting point is 00:40:21 what you lose so it was like fuck y'all who knows what you're losing i didn't didn't handle anything the best it was a mess right but and i was fucked up but i was talking to somebody and it was like, who knows what you're losing? So it was like, fuck y'all. Who knows what you're losing? I didn't handle anything the best. It was a mess, right? But, and I was fucked up. But I was talking to somebody and I was like, yo, if you want things, somebody that was in the business, and I was going to them for advice, and they was like, if you want things to be better, then you need to fucking get all of these headlines. Just move to page 99 of Google. That's the first thing you need to do. Like, when i type your name the first seven things that come up is nasty so get it moved i said wow that makes a lot of sense
Starting point is 00:40:51 and i went home and i tried to do it myself because i didn't have a team i was fucked up so i started trying to upload shit it didn't work it didn't work now they got companies that do it no then no no no then they had companies that did it. And that's my point. If you're of enough importance and if you generate enough, then somebody gonna come in and get all of that shit moved. But again, it also depends on how egregious the
Starting point is 00:41:15 accusation is. Saying something on a stage is not as egregious as another extreme example is R. Kelly fucking doing what he did. It's a difference. It's a difference. Let me ask you something, Parker. Please do. What do you think about the story that says Meg's people are looking into whether Tori violated their restraining order by being on stage with the baby at Rolling Loud while Meg was maybe backstage?
Starting point is 00:41:41 What do I think about it? Yeah. I don't know what to think about it, honestly. I don't know what their restraining order says. It depends on the terms of the order. He could have definitely been in violation. It depends on the terms. And it also depends on the-
Starting point is 00:41:53 The restraining order says something like 100 yards away. 100 feet, 1,000 feet. I don't know what a yard is. But there was, you know, looking into it, yo, him being there, her being still backstage. It could have potentially violated... That's how I broke my foot. That is how you broke your foot. That is how you broke your foot.
Starting point is 00:42:21 It is the same exact thing. It is exactly the same. It would also depend Joe to answer your question on what the facts of the case are which Meg and her people
Starting point is 00:42:29 know better than we all do so I don't know I don't know alright come on moving on because this ain't where we was at where were we at
Starting point is 00:42:37 we were talking about we was getting D was on Prince nah y'all fucked it up Pac we went to Macabelly we were talking about the belly we were talking about the the the um
Starting point is 00:42:46 no we were talking about the the pock shit i was talking about the baby and the colors and all that and i was i was saying something about the pock shit was that um before you got into that i literally believe in the law of attraction right i 100 000 believe in the law of attraction when you keep talking deaf, deaf, deaf, you pulling it to yourself. I agree with that. Right? You pulling it to yourself.
Starting point is 00:43:10 I agree with word, time, and meaning, and spelling. Like, every day when I come in here and see this, I be like, oh, man. And I like it, but I be like, fuck. Like, I believe in that. I believe that even like when you start going to like seminars, right, with the rich motherfuckers, they tell you the shit that you tell yourself daily.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Speaking down on us right now. I'm not rich. You rich. We don't go to the rich seminars. We don't go to seminars with the rich motherfuckers. Never. Not one. Maybe we need to go to them.
Starting point is 00:43:42 I can't even get you to the strip club. Now you want to go to a seminar? It's at the seminar. Are you spending money? One is making money. Are the girls there? Anyway, man. Is that the answer?
Starting point is 00:43:53 Yes. That's why niggas is meeting the smart girls at the seminar. She putting you on a bag instead of taking your bag. I'm joking. I'm talking shit. But nah, they tell you like. No, take my bag, baby. What the fuck did you talk about?
Starting point is 00:44:07 No, I don't. Slow down. Don't take tricking off the table. Where your new bag at? It's not new anymore. It ain't new. He just stick it behind the couch. When it was new, it was propped up on the pillow.
Starting point is 00:44:20 And talk about what you were talking about. So they really tell you, like, yo, the stuff that you say on a daily basis, it goes out. It goes out. Stop saying, yo, I'm broke.
Starting point is 00:44:30 I'm poor. I'm this and that. I'm fucked up. Stop saying that type of shit because it literally lends credence to reality. Put the positive shit out in the universe. Let it come back to you. So I don't like with the pox shit. Like,
Starting point is 00:44:43 yo, when you start talking about Def all the time, even big, start talking Def all the time, you naming your albums, putting Def in the title, your albums, all that shit,
Starting point is 00:44:51 it can happen, nigga. All right, I'm going to segue us back to the baby. Okay. Yeah, I don't know what to say about this nigga.
Starting point is 00:45:01 Personally, hell of a segue. I'm going to be honest, I like it. You like what? I like what he's doing and i used to be and i only say this because we need a villain we don't need a villain no we need a villain why we need a villain why in rap do we need a villain duality we need a villain period you gotta have a villain somewhere it's not a i fucking hate it here you hate it I like the fact it's not a movie plot
Starting point is 00:45:27 I like the fact that somebody is just standing up and saying yo man fuck it yeah I said it and I'm a double down on it
Starting point is 00:45:36 I'm a triple down on it I don't like people tuck their tail and run they leg because of this topic even if you're wrong because of this topic
Starting point is 00:45:43 I can't really reply to you the right way that I want to reply to you on this topic. But what I will say is, I don't even think this is the real story with dude. What you mean? Can't say. But I know we talking about the LGBTQ backlash. Elton John is out. Madonna's out.
Starting point is 00:46:06 They on him. They on him now. Really? And he just keep doubling and tripling down. There's some other stories circulating that I won't dare touch here. But we ain't seeing the last of this. No. And he ain't going to let it.
Starting point is 00:46:24 So you can keep saying you like it, but I stand on the opposite side of you with the take on on... I'm just saying... Empowering certain people. All I'm saying, bro, is I like to see a
Starting point is 00:46:40 villain. But you like all the little niggas in hip-hop that's killing niggas anyway. Not all of them. Some of them can't. Most of them. of them you like 90 of them you like a bunch of 78 your favorites are them see it's important for me to just keep that in perspective when we start talking about music and then we start talking about movie and root for the bad guy i like the but this ain't a movie not just that when these little niggas out here is getting killed on the streets these black kids it ain't a movie and I'm not gonna shoot at you
Starting point is 00:47:05 you my guy but then that's what was my thing when you start dissing the fab hoodies that had the holes in them how do you diss the hoodies
Starting point is 00:47:12 that have the holes in them that are perpetuating niggas getting shot but all you do is push that music fam I like what I like to listen to I'm sorry
Starting point is 00:47:19 I'm a hypocrite hey everyone's a hypocrite yeah like I own my be clear that's the only difference I own my I'm cool with it everyone's a everybody's a a hypocrite. Hey. Okay. Everyone's a hypocrite. Yeah, like I own my. Be clear. That's the only difference. I own my.
Starting point is 00:47:26 I'm cool with it. Everyone. Everybody's a fucking hypocrite. Everyone's a hypocrite. You can be hypocritical about certain shit. You can't be hypocritical about black death. You can't be hypocritical about kids dying and what's best for our community. You can't be hypocritical about that.
Starting point is 00:47:40 Hey, the kids that's rapping about this shit. Let me finish. Please, kind sir. Go ahead, sir. One, you black. You a man. got a kid you got little cousins you got your nephews and nieces right so again that shit is really hitting home it ain't a song nigga these niggas is keeping the score on the album cover of real people that died versus they friends that died. That's not rap no more. It ain't cool no more.
Starting point is 00:48:08 It ain't rap no more. Okay, can I say something? These young artists are rapping about their everyday life. Indeed. That's what they see. Indeed. We don't have to like that.
Starting point is 00:48:19 That's their picture. These kids is out here getting drugged up, the numb, the pain. Everything you can imagine but that's their world i agree they are living in it and they are telling their story who am i to tell you you can't tell your story that's your story indeed i don't no no you are a person that does not have to glorify the content no and i don't i don't have to like that being their story. But it is. No, no, it is.
Starting point is 00:48:47 Rap about it all day. I don't have to, me, I don't have to enjoy hearing it. I don't have to like that for you. I don't, listen, I just heard Ice Cube say that his favorite rapper of all time is Chuck D. Take from that what you want. But I don't have to like that story. No, you don't. I could be in it, story no you don't i could be in it i could live
Starting point is 00:49:06 it i could be around it and i could still want to hear that a sense of something different i could still want that to be your message that or hey chuck he come from the same streets we come from he come from the same shit ice cube come from or you can hear that and listen to it from chicago i agree nigga kanye west is from the south side of Chicago. There's a million different ways to... Listen, man. It's Saturday. I'm on happy time.
Starting point is 00:49:31 I'm on happy time. After an hour of... I'm on for this. I'm on happy time. Hypocrisy. I like the bad guy. I'm on happy time. I was shocked to see Madonna and Elton John pop up,
Starting point is 00:49:42 but then I wasn't. No, you wasn't. Think about it. They've been advocates they've been doing this my whole fucking life so yeah here they are now and he's doubling down on this shit man I was shocked to see Madonna but that's another like
Starting point is 00:49:53 nevermind go ahead he's saying that he's a mega star and this is the life he chose and he's an icon and they came for a show and they got a good show and I'm unbothered. You're not going to get to the bar. Hey, actually, let's get to him versus Questlove. Pull that
Starting point is 00:50:10 up for me. Ice, what were you about to say when you No, stay on Madonna for a second. The police shootings were happening of young black men. Madonna goes and records a video of one of her adopted black kids dancing and say,
Starting point is 00:50:25 this affected me so much I just had to put this out there. The fuck are you doing? Like, no, what I'm saying is, that picking truth. He's saying Madonna should mind her fucking business. Yeah. That's what he said. That's what I'm saying. Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Who says it's not her business? But this is her business, kind of, right? Who says her having an adopted black kid is not her business her potentially her child could potentially be affected does your adopted black kid doing an interpretational dance in your kitchen have to do with black people being shot by the police i i didn't see what you're talking about okay well no i'm just saying no i'm saying it's her business if you have a black child. Police brutality is your business
Starting point is 00:51:08 if you have a black child. I agree with that. Okay, that's true. I'm talking about... He's talking about the dance in the kitchen and the video in the kitchen. I don't know that part.
Starting point is 00:51:15 Yeah, it was a mess. I don't know that part. And that was the white part of it. That was the tone deaf part. Yeah, I don't know that part. Madonna's white, man. She only was kissing them niggas. She was fucking them niggas. She was fucking them niggas.
Starting point is 00:51:27 She wasn't just kissing. This wasn't Rolling Loud Festival. She was out there getting bodied, nigga. What are you talking about? You crazy. I don't know. I do. I do. Quest Love said he was
Starting point is 00:51:43 hypothetically asked if he was curating an updated version of summer so who would be the axe he wrote out a list the baby's name was there he crossed it out he went on a long tangent about how what the baby did was fucked up and let me not say long tangent as in to undermine what he said he said a lot of really powerful yes he did powerful uh things to which the baby replied i ain't even trying to be funny when i say i do not know who this nigga is dog crying emoji uh with the i don't know the shrug emojis let me hearken everyone back to joe budden saying that we need some type of SAT test before you can even come in the club. We need a hip-hop SAT.
Starting point is 00:52:30 Sir, this don't speak to Questlove. If you don't know Questlove. Fam, let me, let me, let me. I saw a lot of tweets this morning saying I'm glad he said it because I don't know who the fuck Questlove is either.
Starting point is 00:52:46 And that's not a shot. I fuck with Quest. We are talking about kids. You talking about kids. They don't know shit about the roots. I don't know no roots. We got that part. So, but from the baby standpoint is, nigga, you made up a festival.
Starting point is 00:53:00 I don't know you and I don't care if I'm not on it. You made up your idea why would i give a fuck a dope ass festival would be and you added me which means you're a fan of mine yeah like why do i care i don't know you my name off your made-up festival it's disrespectful for the baby to say it though hey have you been watching the baby he's been yeah that's i understand what y'all saying you gotta go i thought that spoke volumes. It does speak volumes. So again, even before you say this.
Starting point is 00:53:29 I do not care about losing you as a fan, my boy. You or any other nigga who want to play follow the leader. This superstar you was a fan of is a stand-up nigga. You ain't never seen one of these, huh? So this is my point. The baby needed to go look up prior to responding who this nigga is. Why? I'm not trying to be funny, but why does he need to do that?
Starting point is 00:53:50 Just for your own general information. What I'm saying is our worlds don't coincide at all. Yeah, they do. It's not true. Questlove is on a fucking nightly TV show, I'm sure. I bet the baby's been on fucking Belly before. The baby's been on there. The baby's performed on that show.
Starting point is 00:54:03 The baby's been on the show while Questlove was there. The Questlove is one of the most respected niggas in the cult. That does not make his performance. I'm going to answer you. He don't know who the drummer is back there. I'm going to answer you. That's my point. Trey Young, Luka Doncic, and all of these niggas owe a certain level of respect to everybody that came before them in my opinion charles
Starting point is 00:54:25 barkley says it all the time he says yo i basically bow down to uh wilt chamberlain and bill russell he calls them niggas mr russell right because without them there's no us and we lose sight of that in hip-hop when young niggas be taking shots at jay-z or at fucking naz or any person that has helped pave the way for you so prior to him responding i think you need to go look at who this man is before i lay a response down my thing is why do you even have to know who he is two things you don't have to know he is two things i just want to say that one and i just found all this kind of ironic not saying he's behind this but 50 just said he's going to start mentoring the baby.
Starting point is 00:55:07 Okay. There's a page out of 50's book. 50 do what 50 does. This is 50. Now, 50's also said, fuck you OG niggas. Y'all stuck in the 80's. Like, I don't have to bow down to you niggas. I don't have to respect you niggas.
Starting point is 00:55:20 I'm not making no money with you niggas. You do what you do. I'm going to do what I do. If you speak on me, I can say something back to you. We ain't equals. You did. You had your time. You did your thing.
Starting point is 00:55:31 I'm here now doing mine. I'm over here. I don't care what you niggas is talking about. That's what the baby stance is on this. It's like, dude, I don't give a fuck. But that's not correct. Wait, wait. Hold up a second, H.
Starting point is 00:55:42 How is that not correct? Because questions still get busy. We understand that that is the point that uh the baby is making but that's the point that we making and it continues to be the conversation about bridging the gap between the ogs and some of the newer acts just progress the baby has been here for three years four years quest love didn't just come out and start offering suggestions and speaking this nigga's name out the blue the the guy said something offended a large community of people and now people are reacting and responding to that it's your actions that has ogs yes saying
Starting point is 00:56:20 hey we like you love you and want you, would want you on our fake imaginary festival. But you should probably do bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop differently. Forget about what Questlove said. Chris Brown came out. Yo, do the show, thank the fans, exit the stage. That's what he said? Yeah. Do the show, shut the fuck up.
Starting point is 00:56:41 Like, it's a real simple thing that niggas ask. The last part, we was talking about, hey, T.I. chiming in, right? We was like, okay, see what you're doing, man. Why not just shut the fuck up? Like, sometimes the risk ain't worth the reward. So, the baby keeps saying he cut like that and he built for it and he keep doubling down. Hey, salute. See, and this is where I disagree.
Starting point is 00:57:03 Salute. And this is where I disagree. Andute. And this is where I disagree. And me and Ice always come to this standstill. Fam, sometimes it's okay to say, yo, I fucked that up. The end. That's it. The end. Take the accountability for the potential error and keep it pushing.
Starting point is 00:57:20 Now, here, hood young nigga, I'm not tapping out. Y'all not going to force me to tap out and I'm gonna stand on this and you're gonna live and die on that sword because now standing on it but now standing on it and living dying on that sword right as to it as to ish's point is gonna lead to just like let's psychoanalyze what the doubling down meant. The first thing he said was, yo, nah, I ain't talking about all the gays. I'm talking about the ones that suck the dirty gays. That's what he said?
Starting point is 00:57:52 He didn't say that. I'm talking about the gays that, like me, are classy gays. He said this? He said, yo, he said something similar. said i'm not quoting him but but listen stop stop stop stop stop stop stop this is a young black man y'all add whatever
Starting point is 00:58:15 adjectives y'all want to add this is a young black successful man right straight man who was at the center of a lgbtq controversy where he offended gays and the first thing he did was something that's been at the heart of the gay community forever which was gays looking down on gays the separatism in that community where uh hey you do this i'm not like that you're flaming i'm not like that you're're flaming. I'm not like that. You're this. I'm not like that. Like, that was something that, and listen, I'm getting this from around gay people. No, no, no. They say that. I'm a follower. I know, but anytime a straight man start talking about this, they be like, shut the fuck up.
Starting point is 00:58:54 But that was a real thing. So who is he to now come after all this progression and try to highlight classy gays from unclassy gaze somebody from universal nobody's on the phone saying hey nigga hand your phones to somebody else please you too important to the people he's too important to they should be saying that but no he just keep tweeting he just keep going and i just keep watching saying i'm gonna shut the fuck up yet here i am i'm going man because unlike ice i'm making my business to want to never be in the same room with some of these niggas never never like ice i don't want to be in a room with none of these niggas oh please i just like the music fam i don't give a fuck about that and liking the music is energy music is energy liking the music means you'll go to the show it means you'll buy the
Starting point is 00:59:44 merch it means you'll say hello it means you'll go to the show. It means you'll buy the merch. It means you'll say hello. It means you'll... Liking the music is a blanket statement, but it comes with a lot. And giving more power to that message. Yeah. Yeah, come on. It's spelling. It's conditioning. It's programming. It's all that. It's okay to just be fans sometimes, bro. I'm just fans of a lot of these niggas. I don't want to meet
Starting point is 01:00:00 you. I don't want to... Half the time you meet these niggas and they make you not be a fan anymore because you realize who they are. I just like the music. I think it's okay to just like the music. Yeah, like I'm just a fan of the music. I don't care about what you niggas do. To a point though. To a point. As long as you're not here fucking with no kids and stuff
Starting point is 01:00:16 like that. But they are fucking with kids. They killing them. Come on Saturday, man. Let him do it. Let him do it. Let him listen. Let him have a... I'm not... Ice, you talking about 15... I said fucking with kids.
Starting point is 01:00:28 I'm talking about... I know what you mean. So don't say you don't know what I mean then. I did not say that. I said I know what you mean. I'm saying, but you saying fucking with kids in a sexual, perverse way, right? I'm saying little 15-year-old kids are getting their blames blown out. All right, I'm done.
Starting point is 01:00:44 It's just a different level of fucking with kids. No, no, no. This is getting long. No, no, no. All right. All right. All right, fam. I'm sitting here trying to get us out of here.

Y'all want to talk about Sweetie getting a Happy Meal? That's happy. It's perfect coming off a hat. Look, it's just like, why did I sign? I could be building a house right now. This market

Yeah, get your money. Look's all I can say. Get your money. I don't know what the fuck this is. It's a bag. Yeah, get your money. Look, Team Summit is lost when you got to talk about Happy Meals. I don't need Happy Meals.
Starting point is 01:02:33 All right, come on, Ice. We put off your little bad take long enough. Nobody cares about the Sweetie Happy Meals. It's fine. I wasn't buying Happy Meals before. My bad take, man. I just said. I only want to hear about Quavo's opinion
Starting point is 01:02:46 on anything that Sweetie does. Put a camera right on him. Yeah, that's it. She getting endorsement deals now. She leveling up. She got a ghost, a phantom or some shit after the Bentley got taken away. That's all level up.
Starting point is 01:02:57 Don't go do that. Don't go get all these new bags now that I'm gone. You got to at least get lashes. Why? You're supposed to fall off new shit. Yeah, some straightening. Give us some straightening. Girl, I want you to feel the effects.

Starting point is 01:03:24 Yeah, but you have to be able to read through the girl fake happy meter. Like sometimes they'll fake the happiness. Oh, yeah, yeah. You gotta know when it's real and authentic and when it's fake and she just bullshitting her homegirl. She gonna fuck me next month. She waiting on that text. Or I'm fucking her already.
Starting point is 01:03:41 I don't even know why she telling her homegirls all that. That'd be the best though when she doggie the homegirls. I ain't fucking know why she's telling her homegirls all that. That'd be the best, though, when she dog you to her homegirls. I ain't fucking that nigga no more. Then you show up. No, then she's coming to your house on a late night. And now she's saying she's still carrying it up with the homegirls. She still ain't tell her homegirls I'm coming through getting my back blown out late at night. No, girl, he's still out here wilding.
Starting point is 01:04:02 Now it's a sneaky link. That's crazy. And they do that. And now it's a sneaky link because you have chosen me to be a sneaky link that is true just look yourself in the mirror and say that i'm the type of nigga you like to fuck i'm the type of guy you like i know it's tough i don't even think it's that yo you know what happens that's my man i'ma stick beside him i like that the girls was doing all that That's my man. I'm going to stick beside him. I like that the girls was doing all that. That's my man.
Starting point is 01:04:27 I'm going to stick beside him. They was trying to diss us. But, no, I ain't going to, I ain't going to take the pot off that, what that beef's doing.
Starting point is 01:04:38 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Starting point is 01:04:40 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Starting point is 01:04:40 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Starting point is 01:04:42 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Starting point is 01:04:43 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, No, no, no. Yep. Yes, sir. Sweetie looking good, too. Of course. Yeah, she cute. She's better look good. Yeah, she always look good. But the post-breakup glow up.
Starting point is 01:04:53 People look better. Yeah. Why people look better when they break up? Look at that McDonald's. Look at the smile. Come on, man. You've never seen her back teeth when she smiles. Now I'm seeing the back teeth.
Starting point is 01:05:04 And she got her back teeth. She could chew a steak. She could chew the back teeth. And she got her back teeth. She could chew a steak. She could chew the hard food. That's sexy. Captain Crunch.
Starting point is 01:05:13 Yes, guys. Why chicks be losing their back teeth? Everybody, man. Wait,
Starting point is 01:05:17 what? What type of women? Hold on. They don't be having their back teeth. No.
Starting point is 01:05:25 Forget it then. Y'all chicks got dental dental coverage. Yes. Oh, man. This thing is so stupid. Y'all chicks just around y'all giving y'all
Starting point is 01:05:35 the full smile with the molars. What's these ones called? What's he for? What's these ones? What's these back ones called? What you call them? The molars.
Starting point is 01:05:42 The molars. Molars you ask? The mol? Molars, you ass. The molars, yeah. The one right before the wisdom. All right, well, go ahead, sweetie. All right, On The Ice's horrible music tape. He's full of them today. Don't worry, this is not a music podcast.
Starting point is 01:05:56 I'm always full of horrible takes. Get all of these bad takes out of the way. Come on. My bad take is, there's no defense. I hope y'all are watching and ready and see what's happening. Because it's coming. We're actually in the process of it.
Starting point is 01:06:12 Tell us what's happening. The sellout. I'm a Griselda fan. The sellout. You think they're selling out? What does sellout even mean anymore? Attempting to cross over to a bigger audience. Doing things that your core fan base may not like.
Starting point is 01:06:26 They haven't done it yet. Yet? Wait, that's what sellout means? Yeah, selling out. Doing things that my core fan base may not like? Here's my thing. I'm saluting Griselda for this, by the way. I don't want this to come off as hate.
Starting point is 01:06:40 This is that new diss compliment. No, no, no. This isn't a diss. It's a compla diss. It's not a diss. It's that new compla diss coming I'm not dissing at all Ice made this up
Starting point is 01:06:48 No it's not I don't know if sell out's still a diss by the way It's not a diss You wanna sell out I think that sell it out is a thing of the past No I think it's People be happy when people But what I'm saying about
Starting point is 01:06:57 What I'm saying about them is I think it's I think it depends on what your initial message was Like if you was like Yo I ain't I ain't doing this I ain't doing this I ain't doing this I ain't doing this, I ain't doing this, I ain't doing this, I ain't doing this. And somebody said, yo, I'll give you a million. You're like, fuck it, I'm going to do this.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Then you sold out. See, I agree with what you're saying. So? Fans call me a sellout. I'm like, I'm still the same nigga. But what's wrong with that? That's my only beef. What's wrong with that?
Starting point is 01:07:21 Because to them, the optics of it is that maybe opposite of your point some of the things i've said maybe they believe me they've gone against it i think i move totally in tune with everything that i've ever said in life perspective um but i agree with that but what's wrong with that though i don't see a problem with that it's my whole get to your wild grizelda take stop Stop trying to veer off. I'm not. My take is they're in the process of the attempt to crossover. What's the evidence?
Starting point is 01:07:51 I think, well, Conway's wearing a dress, or a skirt, first off. They've always been about fashion. He would have never put a skirt on before. And when asked about it, when making the comment, as the fans, I watched it. Everybody started getting on his ass about it, when making the comment, as the fans, I watched it. Everybody started getting on his ass about it, Paul. He said, yo, this was Alexander McQueen, and I got a bag for this. You're going to see me in a lot more Alexander McQueen. That's swag.
Starting point is 01:08:14 I love it. I would love to get Alexander McQueen bag. I'd wear all that shit. Go ahead. Go ahead, Ish. Come on. Don't bite your tongue. Don't be shy here.
Starting point is 01:08:24 I had a nice joke. It's cool, Ish. Come on. Don't bite your tongue. Don't be shy here. I had a nice joke. It's cool, though. No, I'm just saying, like, people are going to take it the wrong way. I'm going to say this. I'm a hater of Griselda, which I'm not. What if they still make the hardest music in the world, but he wears a skirt? Well, Benny just did the NBA draft intro, and that was not the typical music that he makes, that type of song. See, I think that's elevation.
Starting point is 01:08:42 I don't think that's selling out. But it's elevation and attempt to cross over to a bigger audience when you do that your core fan base that came in with you genuinely hate that i mean but is that is that what's happening because i mean gun was just tweeting the other day about how everyone's doing the shit that they've been doing and it's getting played out maybe they're just growing growing just doing switching lanes same it's not necessarily selling out to get a bigger audience. I'm saying maybe they're just bored of doing it that way because everyone's copying their shit, so now they're going to
Starting point is 01:09:09 go over here and do it a different way. All I'm saying is the core fans, when you do that, nine times out of ten, hate it. This is why I don't really listen to Ice. Why? There's an Alexander McQueen doc I want to say on Showtime. You should watch it. And if you get a little bit familiar with uh alexander mcqueen and his story and what he stood for and meant to fashion right like they were trying to cast him to the side as
Starting point is 01:09:36 this dark demonic type of evil young young fucking fashion guy who there's no place for that and he was like nah i don't stand for that very similar to what nirvana may be represented in rock and roll is what alexander against the queen did and yeah so a lot of this shit was edgy and i know everybody says that but with him it was really dark edgy like i'm on my isolation by myself, depressed, speaking to a certain type of. So I'm not mad at that fashion house going after somebody like Conway or Griselda. Griselda, who to Parks' point, probably got their hit off of fashion before we say music. Would I go and wear a skirt? Maybe if they pay me enough and the skirt is fly.
Starting point is 01:10:33 I don't know. I too once said, I don't understand none of you niggas that wear skirts. But then I got into the background on people, not rappers, but people and heritage, different heritages and cultures that wear a skirt. I'm not going to kill him. I'm not killing him. Let me just get all my points out and then you can say whatever you want.
Starting point is 01:10:53 I just want to push back. I'm not killing him. I'm supporting this 100%. Well, calling someone a sellout, where are we from? Or saying that they're trying to sell out or approaching sellout. Sellout, wrong word.
Starting point is 01:11:04 I'm just saying the attempt for the crossover. But core fans genuinely, generally view that as selling out. That's what I'm saying. I know, but let's change nigga shit. Okay. We don't have to subscribe to all the nigga shit that goes on in the world. I heard, oh, the clip circulated last week of Charlamagne asking uh the Instagram owner about why Boosie keeps getting deleted and the Instagram owner started talking
Starting point is 01:11:37 well when you violate the terms and conditions and you put nudity out and and then Charlamagne or somebody brought up well Kim Kardashian does whatever and she doesn't get deleted and then he said well if she does something that violates our terms number one she's 100% getting deleted and number two when you're trying to grow oh Charlamagne asked him if you uh did he understand culture and all that comes with it and the guy said no I don't understand all that comes with culture i'd be a tell you that i do but i do know that when you're trying to scale and then he went on to talk scale talk and i thought it was an interview last week okay i thought it was interesting that one right
Starting point is 01:12:19 there he went on to talk big scale talk and what he really was saying was when you're trying to scale we don't really give a fuck about y'all anymore. I don't care about your young. Not anymore. We may start there, but when you're trying to scale, nah. Y'all ain't worth it. And I thought it was interesting that he said that there. Nobody bad to deny.
Starting point is 01:12:39 But that is what everybody's faced with today. Everybody's trying to scale. Everybody's trying to scale. We're going to talk about scaling soon because there's an interesting fight with Scarlett Johansson and Disney going on that I want to discuss. I saw that.
Starting point is 01:12:51 We're going to talk about scaling soon. We just talked about, we touched on that when we spoke about what OnlyFans was doing. Trying to scale. Trying to scale. They're trying. And it's like, yeah,
Starting point is 01:12:59 we know we got our start here, but where we trying to go, ain't no room for y'all. Okay, so i only brung that up to say and i could be off on this but when you say words like crossover i receive it as a bad thing cross over me you take it i take it as abandoning true sellout means you abandoned one thing for another true but when you're expanding, it's elevation and growth. You should...
Starting point is 01:13:26 Wrong word on my part there. Because that's not how I meant it. I also take all these gentlemen, again, to be big on the art, whether it's fashion, paintings, album covers. But listen, listen. He went on a rant saying, everyone's trying to produce, make art,
Starting point is 01:13:40 da-da-da-da-da, the shit that they did. Vinyls, blah-blah-blah. Just so many people jumping in this shit, crowding the space, it's starting to get boring. Who said that? This is West Side Gun, a tweet that he sent out yesterday. Okay. So, I could totally
Starting point is 01:13:54 see them trying some different shit. And that's not selling out, that's not necessarily trying to... Benny just got fucking shot in the leg and robbed in front of Walmart in Houston. It don't get no more culture than that. I'm not. I think that's incorrect word on my part.
Starting point is 01:14:08 Again, saying sell out. I'm more so just saying I watch it happen all the time, especially with really, really street rappers. When you start branching out, that core fan base don't like that. And then that's where the words come from. I think it's gross. You're doing this. Yes, it is gross. I think it's like...
Starting point is 01:14:28 Which is why I love it. Like, if you... Let's just say you stuck in... Then just say you love it then, nigga. I'm just talking to the fans who be on my neck every time something happens. I'm watching y'all.
Starting point is 01:14:37 Y'all ain't happy. And I'm laughing at you. That was a long route to get to I love it. But I said I love it. I said I love it from the jump. It wasn't a period. Nah, I think that, like, you know what you know, right?
Starting point is 01:14:52 So if you're just a kid from, let's say, Philly or Houston or Newark, you only know that. Right. As you start to get more successful, I'm sure you can attest to this, too. Yeah, and you start learning new shit and experiencing new shit. Now you don't only eat chicken wings from the bodega. You want some other shit. You get what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:15:12 I don't think your evolution or your ascension is not crossing over. Are you a flat-sword drum guy? I don't really care. I'm a chicken guy. I like both. I might prefer the drum. I might prefer the drum too. Chicken. I'm in a room with fucking heathens and Neanderthals.
Starting point is 01:15:27 Why? Because you like the flats? Nothing, man. Let's just move on. I like when it's got kind of both. You know what I'm saying? When they all like portion. The full wing.
Starting point is 01:15:36 Give me some nice juicy flats, man. Give me a good flat. Yeah. Man, just give me chicken. I'm a little weed chicken. We don't be picking. Dyes, all that shit. It might not even be chicken. This question wasn't, I'm a little, we eat chicken. We don't be picking. Thighs, all that shit. It might not even be chicken.
Starting point is 01:15:46 This question wasn't posed to you Kennedy fried guys. Oh, oh, wait, wait, hold up, hold up.
Starting point is 01:15:51 We're going to do that. You a sellout. You a sellout. You a sellout. Why you trying to do that? Why you trying to cross over? Kennedy fried had niggas down too many nights for that.
Starting point is 01:16:01 Who's niggas? I wasn't given what I was supposed to give, Joe. Niggas, that's who. I don't know who that is. Nigga, I don't know. Y'all, y'all, now y'all.

Starting point is 01:17:06 He didn't hear it. It's Bill's houses. If it's not whole, but I feel like when you want to build a house, you want to put on some fly shit in the back. I can't have an opinion because Bill's house is all. Yeah, sorry. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:17:17 Y'all don't laugh. We've talked about music and it's coming. Nah, what really happened about it is I feel like when the Grammy got lost yesterday that's not what I do if that shit is ass it's ass you didn't hear
Starting point is 01:17:29 Kings of Zezel's ass it wasn't what y'all call it which is why we just try to keep the music out of your you know what I mean cause I gotta agree with y'all
Starting point is 01:17:39 no no it's hard to deny that one and I'm not a Nas fan I can't stand Nas for the most part it's only probably his best album since, who fucking knows?
Starting point is 01:17:47 Life is Good. Since it was written. Life is Good. It was written. No, Life is Good. It was phenomenal. Life is Good. That was the one with Bob Marley.
Starting point is 01:17:56 No. No. That was Distant Relatives. That was Damian Marley. Bob's been gone for a while, man. Way down. That was the one with his dad. Did been gone for a while, man. Way down. That was the one with his dad.

Starting point is 01:18:15 like that, man? I'm supposed to be the Nas hater here. I think Nas would. Don't worry. Hov will be coming out right next week too. Well, he is.
Starting point is 01:18:22 Same day. Because that's when you ain't supposed to drop. There's a Hov verse. I don't put Nas and Hov together like the rest of the world does. Nor do I. I keep trying to stop putting Kanye and Drake together. Like, I don't put them together.
Starting point is 01:18:31 Hey, shut up. You know what he means when he says that shit. You're being disrespectful. Go find some land. Build some shit with two doorbells. Oh, wait. They're not building no more land, though. No.
Starting point is 01:18:42 Yeah, exactly. Took all the land from this nigga. Now he want to pod. Now he want to talk about our albums. What else came out? Yeah. So Nas is dropping.
Starting point is 01:18:53 Most of us here are excited about it. I can't wait. And hopefully, it's just as great as the first one was. Hopefully, Hit-Boy is just as involved.
Starting point is 01:19:02 Yeah, he's tagged in it. All right. ladies and gentlemen. We got more silk. The album is out. The album's coming. The streets been asking for it. They've teased. They've teased us on the Grammys.
Starting point is 01:19:15 The streets have been fiending. It's time to skate. And here we are. Brand new Silk Sonic Oh my, oh my Game show Game show It would be a hundred dollars If the environment was a crime
Starting point is 01:19:46 Girl, they like your little fine ass up in the tower The way you move like you do Ooh, it's like you do it for a living Do a little spin, do it again Look like you came for the win, oh baby I'm trying to roll, I'm trying to ride I'm trying to float, I'm trying to ride I'm trying to flow I'm trying to glide No, no, don't be shy
Starting point is 01:20:09 Just take my hand and hold on tight Oh, skate something, baby Skate Was it worth the wait? Gentlemen, gentlemen, gentlemen Was it worth the wait? So it's just another song. This is a song, not an album.
Starting point is 01:20:28 This is a song called Skate by Anderson.Paak, Bruno Mars, collectively known as Silk Sonic. The streets have been asking for another look from these guys, another record. There's a song and a video, brand new skate. No, no, no. Roller skating vibes. No, no. The streets have been asking for the project. That's what song and a video, brand new, skate, roller skating vibes.
Starting point is 01:20:45 No, no. The streets have been asking for the project. That's what the streets want. We want the project. I don't want to, like, this was over a year now. How long has this been going on? It's not been over a year, guys. It's been a while, though. It's been a minute.
Starting point is 01:20:56 It's been about eight months. More than six. It's been about eight, nine months. Y'all so extra. Hey, find out when they drop that Leave the Door Open shit, please. It's not been nine months since Leave the Door Open. It definitely has been. It has not.
Starting point is 01:21:10 Yes, it has. All right, well, they're going to look it up. Let's continue to converse. I like the song. Is it? No, I think the song is dope. I think, like, again, I fuck with it. Look, Leave the Door Open, March.
Starting point is 01:21:23 March, April, May, June, July five months August, six months instead of a year anyway you like this song in a pandemic it felt longer
Starting point is 01:21:32 these niggas is like they real musicians and the nigga Bruno Mars is like a really a music dude so the good thing with jokers like that that everything
Starting point is 01:21:41 don't sound the same right you know what I'm saying like they'll give you a whole bunch of different did you say that Brunouno mars is really a musician and he's really a music dude like no like i don't know if he plays instruments and all that into musicianship i think he does but again like he's like when you hear him talk he talks about his roots and upbringing and the shit that they used to listen to and all of that. So he could go from some,
Starting point is 01:22:05 like you, like one day you could come in here and you'd be in your Afro Beats bag and the next day you'll go play some fucking 60s shit. Music lover shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:16 I believe both of them to be music lovers. So I think that he can give you a big, a dope ass album with a whole bunch of different sounds on it. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:22:24 Where is it? Yeah, I would what I'm saying? Where is it? Yeah, I would like to hear it. Where is it? This song is cool. It doesn't, like, grab me the same way that Leave the Door Open did. I'ma tease you, nigga. You're not, though.
Starting point is 01:22:35 Like, you're giving me what I expect from y'all. You're not. You're teasing, nigga. That's my only thing. I just want to hear the project. Like, come on. This sounds like an album cut, too. Not for nothing.
Starting point is 01:22:43 They all sound like album cuts. No, that first one did not. No, that first one did not. Yeah. No, the first one did not. And you know what, man? Hey, Silk Sonic, y'all better send me some autographed vinyl. Maybe the narcissist in me, I'm taking credit for the live version of Leave the Door Open. Huh?
Starting point is 01:22:59 Yeah, you lost it. I, Joe Budden, am taking full credit and responsibility for the live version of Leave the Door Open, which is this little tune right here. Oh, ladies and gentlemen. You broke it. Oh, stop. They don't knock it the fuck off. If you don't knock it. Hey, Anderson Paxton, my shit, man.
Starting point is 01:23:16 Play my vinyl. Call Bruno. Call Kaiser. Call whoever the fuck you got to call. This is all my work. Explain. Yeah, you got to give me more, Joe. How's this your work?
Starting point is 01:23:24 Because I came on this podcast and said, let's critique Leave the Door Open. You got to call. This is all my work. Explain. Yeah, you got to give me more, Joe. How does this shit work? Because I came on this podcast and said, let's critique Leave the Door Open. And everybody said, amazing. I love it. And I said, cool. I think it's too perfect. I think that some record crackles should be added. Something should be added there.
Starting point is 01:23:46 I also think if you're going to emulate the 70s soul thing, then you need riffs and all this shit is just too formatted. Ah. Right? You did say that. Then they put out a live version that wasn't live. Yeah, they did.
Starting point is 01:23:56 Nobody said nothing. They put out a live version. Here it is, nigga. Nah, stop it. I'm sick of you. I didn't hear it. And here it is. Okay.
Starting point is 01:24:04 I'm so fucking want to fight you if you wasn't so tall. Hey, what do you know? Something sounds like record cracker, right? Applause. Some noise. Sounds like 60, 70. It's not live crowd. Let's listen for a little bit.
Starting point is 01:24:19 What you do? What you do? Where you at? Where you at? Oh, you got plans. You got plans. Don't say that. Shut up. They put more reverb on it.
Starting point is 01:24:29 Little crowd noise. Fam. But wait, they performed this at the awards. Me neither. I love both of them. But they performed this and tried to tell me it was live. Award shows don't be live. To anybody out there listening, they're not really playing the instruments at the award shows 99% of the time.
Starting point is 01:24:44 Oh, wait. Also, what I said while we're on this is is and for you to cut the music out because i think this is important that they hear this actually i'll just cut it off also what i said was if you're going if you're going to tell me that you 70s soul then where's the bridge where's the bridge at the end of the song where you climaxing and doing the going crazy like all what do you know that That magically appeared here. Hold up. Oh. I know.
Starting point is 01:25:18 Some of y'all might think it sounds like the original. It's not. It's totally different. No, this is different. Oh, what do you know? Oh, you heard that? Whoa, no, no, no. I'm taking credit. Did y'all hear that. No, this is different. Oh, what do you know? Oh, you heard that? Whoa, no, no, no. I'm taking credit. See all your laughs?
Starting point is 01:25:28 Stop, stop, stop. See? Hey, all your points, man. You up there. Park's been laughing at me. Hey, all your points, man. Hey, video bill it. It was all you.
Starting point is 01:25:34 It was all you. You quarterbacked that. You know what? Forget it. You quarterbacked it. Forget it. Yo, we giving you your points. No, forget it.
Starting point is 01:25:40 Why can't we give you? Never mind. I'm trying to get you your points. I know. Thank you. Your points. Listen, listen to this guy, though. And I'm hoping, hoping that you feel the way I feel.
Starting point is 01:25:49 And you want me like a frangipani. Tell me that you're coming through. They keep going, by the way. The song didn't end. They freak this part. What do you know? What do you know? No breakdown. What do you know? What do you know? No breakdown.
Starting point is 01:26:05 What do you know? Let me stop this for two seconds. Oh, man. I was riding in the strip club, but I think that was Imani two weeks ago, and I was in my throwback bag. So I played Ralph Tresvant, Do What I Gotta Do. Amazing, amazing song.
Starting point is 01:26:23 But there was like five different versions of that song put out and in 91 90 like there was maxi singles so they was putting out different versions of the song and the radio played a version of do what i gotta do that was like a quiet storm mix but it came with a special b section core i just find it actually why am i trying to explain this but it came with a different part of the shit that I never heard again and nobody ever played that version so do what I gotta
Starting point is 01:26:51 so all I'm saying is yeah that's the part I was looking for in this and magically it's there after you saying yo the record is Mr. Smith yeah man but anyway back to Skate. What?
Starting point is 01:27:06 No, back to Ralph Tresorant first, because that is important. And I have each version of that Ralph Tresorant record, too. Of course you do. Of course. Is this the one? No, that ain't it. Shut up. Hold up.
Starting point is 01:27:21 So you really do have every version of it. Oh. You fucking right Actually it's time To go to sleep for the night Oh my god Yeah you had to do this When you put records out
Starting point is 01:27:32 Look this is the I remember the back Because you wanted to Serve as different Different radio channels Essentially Actually yeah That's kind of similar
Starting point is 01:27:39 Like they do Yeah Like they make us Have the extra song For iTunes They wanted to hit rhythm They wanted to hit Adult contemporary They wanted to hit The hip hop They wanted to hit Adult Contemporary.
Starting point is 01:27:45 They wanted to hit the Hip Hop Station. That's why they would hire all the hip hop producers to remix the shit. They should bring that back. I agree. I love Maxi Singles. You can't do that tonight. It's pointless. No, it ain't.
Starting point is 01:27:56 With the streaming, it's all blended now. Oh, here we go. Here we go. Just let this rock for a minute. Just let this rock. Oh, no. Oh, no. Just let this rock. Oh no. Oh no. I never heard this.
Starting point is 01:28:07 I never heard this. I gotta do what I gotta do. No, I never heard this. No, it's coming, he about to go crazy. Look, he doing this, there's still two minutes left on this record. Hey, this for the old folks out there. Don't worry, we moving on.
Starting point is 01:28:19 Back to the baby soon. I heard you girl. All that I can do, do what it was. soon Let's go Ralph Let's go Ralph The music changing everything Hold up Here we go Sing along out there
Starting point is 01:28:44 This part Never heard this But what am I gonna do? It's hard to say goodbye To the things used to be And I'll always be right there When you need me All the time Don't wanna say Don't wanna say goodbye Oh baby, don't let the girl goodbye. Back to Skate, though. I'm letting Ralph rock, though.
Starting point is 01:29:06 Because he did that. Yeah, I miss Max's singles. Different versions and real remixes where the beat was different. Look like we're going to have to say goodbye. Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye. My, my, my. Oh, my God. All right.
Starting point is 01:29:20 Might be a whole new song. A whole new lyric. And I like that, though. Me, too. I'm such a fan of that. Now, Skate. Remember the original remixes? Yeah. whole new song, like a whole new lyrics. And I like that though. Me too. I'm such a fan of that. Now, Skate. Remember the original remixes? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:28 Yes. A new song. The remix was a different record. A whole new song. Just maybe have the same chorus. That might even be changed a little bit. Now modify it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:36 The Skate song? You know, we old. There's some shit that I like, that my mom would like, and my grandmother would like. Nah, when I first heard it, I like That my mom would like And my grandmother would like Nah when I first heard it I told Parks This shit sound like
Starting point is 01:29:48 70's Sitcoms Like Love Boat Or some shit I like when Sound like Love Boat Made from a science lab As opposed to
Starting point is 01:30:02 Live instrumentation Instead of Love Boat Being How they made Love Boat being having it made Love Boat with love that's just gonna keep being my take
Starting point is 01:30:10 about this this shit sounds too perfect well that speaks more for the times we in right now I'm not that I'm not that big on the disco era that speaks more for now
Starting point is 01:30:18 this is pretty close to disco you get what I'm saying Joe no skate yeah listen listen alright check this out this is my brain and my brain only think what you want I love both these guys I love Silk Sonic I'm buying them I'm supporting them Joe? No, skate. Yeah. Listen, listen. All right, check this out. This is my brain and my brain only. Think what you want.
Starting point is 01:30:25 I love both these guys. I love Silk Sonic. I'm buying them. I'm supporting them when it comes out. Right? With that said, the All That We Want album, I understand that from the fans.
Starting point is 01:30:37 Right? But they should have had an album ready. They probably might do. They might have an album ready. This song tells me they don't. You might be right. Why? Because this would not be
Starting point is 01:30:48 your second single. You can't. You can't get me to believe it. You can't get me to think that both of them got 10 to 12 songs somewhere. And this was the pick from
Starting point is 01:31:00 the artists and labels for the second single after Leave the Door Open. I would just be shocked at these two guys with the machines behind them, especially their output, that they wouldn't have more. This is Give Us What You Got Ready. This is Give Us What You Got Right Now. I subscribe to that part. But I get that, Joe.
Starting point is 01:31:17 You're right. If they have an album, knowing who they are and what they can do. Unless the third single is a fucking heater. Well, it would have to be because I feel like this is only here to buy time. But isn't the second single
Starting point is 01:31:29 always the fire, right? No, you want, no, theoretically. You want to, you want to, you want to have fire out
Starting point is 01:31:36 while you're releasing. Gotcha. While you release. You want the heater, heater. In the club. In the club. Well,
Starting point is 01:31:42 while you're out, no, wherever it is. It might not be a club. Whatever it is. No, I'm saying 50 cent in the club. Like, so you put the heater in the club in the club well while you know wherever it might not be a club whatever no i'm saying 50 cent in the club like oh well you put the one out and then you dropped it in the club and now the album see like with her i came in here and i'm saying wow i'm shocked about her yo i want to know where hers uh sales are out sales are at now it might be hard but
Starting point is 01:31:59 remember i came in here and was like damage maybe she should have came out when damage was out because it was on and rocking i don't think that silk sonic is putting the album out off skate no and i think that they we passed the point of leave the door open pushing yourselves they're gonna come with a smoker and that's when the project is gonna come on the next one the next record i think will be a smoker i think this is just here to buy some time but it's cool and smooth and if i have some a pair of skates on then i might roll around and bust my ass but to buy some time but it's cool and smooth and if i have some a pair of skates on then i might roll around and bust my ass went while it's on but that's about it for me yeah it's one that didn't grab me it's cool though and again it's early it just came out it just came
Starting point is 01:32:36 out that's true maybe sometimes when you hear some shit in a certain environment it changes your perception on it i can hear this at a cookout, but a smoker is a smoker, yo. Yeah, but this is still, I know that y'all trying to jazz it up because y'all are like soul singers now, but nah, y'all still in competition with Back in Blood. Hey, you still got to get, the chicks that come,
Starting point is 01:32:58 that when the aux is on, they want to hear Back in Blood. It's their job to make them say, nah, put skate on. What? Nah, nah, nah, nah them say, nah, put Skate on. What? Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Okay. Hey, yo, fish that want to hear Back in Blood.
Starting point is 01:33:10 The girls that like Back in Blood. Ice, you have two ears. They skate with guns. And you have two eyes. When you are watching your favorite show on television, your favorite musician wants you to stop. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 01:33:25 The end. It don't matter that it's different genres and it's different things. If it's in streaming, we're all in competition. Your favorite podcaster wants you to cut your favorite song off. So, yeah. I made it sound funny, but they want the person that's streaming back in blood to stop and turn on escape. Now, maybe that may be a bad example for bad in blood, but you know what I'm saying. I get what you're saying.
Starting point is 01:33:53 Different demos, though. It may not be the same target. When people are releasing products to sell. I want everybody to listen to me. Yeah. I want you to listen to me. These guys are niche underground. Bruno Mars is Mars super duper
Starting point is 01:34:06 when they come they gotta cover everybody Bruno Mars is supposed to make the world stop he's a megastar yeah which is why part of me is why
Starting point is 01:34:14 I think they're listing everything as Anderson.Paak Bruno Mars and Silk Sonic instead of just Silk Sonic
Starting point is 01:34:22 no that's just to capitalize off each fan base so when you go to Anderson.Paak page you'll see it when you go to Bruno Mars page you'll see it when you search Silk Sonic, instead of just Silk Sonic. No, that's just to capitalize off each fan base. So when you go to Anderson.Paak's page, you'll see it. When you go to Bruno Mars' page, you'll see it. When you search Silk Sonic, you'll see it. And when you go to Silk Sonic, you'll go to Anderson's page, and you'll go to Bruno's page.
Starting point is 01:34:33 That's why they did it. Okay, that's just to get everybody. That's the game with features and shit in general now, and remixes, is getting it to show up on other people's page. Got it. Okay. And they're doing that, I assuming because the the uh wherever you want somebody to buy this silk sonic has no credit report yeah that's it that's what i was thinking
Starting point is 01:34:53 this is being treated the way it's being treated because it's anderson pack and bruno mars and they make silk sonic so three albums it's different from, hey, we're Silk Sonic. That don't mean nothing. It's not an audition. Yeah, that don't mean nothing to nobody. But congratulations, and I can't wait to hear the album and that song. Yeah, I'm waiting for them. I can't wait to see when they think their album should drop, what season, what do they
Starting point is 01:35:19 want the weather to be. I know that's my game I play in my head, but I can't wait to see how they feel about the music. We might not get that album the next I play in my head. But I can't wait to see how they feel about the music. We might not get that album the next year sometime. Next spring. You might be right. It felt like,
Starting point is 01:35:29 this and the first single feel like summertime vibes though. But you're definitely not going to put the album out right now. And we at the end of summer. So now that means you don't want this
Starting point is 01:35:38 to drop in the fall, winter. But that's why I don't, fourth quarter could definitely be. That's why I don't believe them about this skate song. I feel like the skate song is time and weather appropriate to buy time to what's going to lead to a more winter album. Like, if the album feels more like Leave the Door Open, then you're talking winter, late fall. That sounds Thanksgiving to me.
Starting point is 01:36:00 Fall, winter. You don't have six more of these, and you're not putting your album out this month or next month. That ain't where we at. And you're not putting your album out with six more of these in late fall. I don't believe that. You'd have to prove it to me. I don't believe it. And I do think that they would want both of them to either hit in the summertime or in the fourth
Starting point is 01:36:17 quarter. Bruno Mars is a major artist. You don't want him in the first or third. No. And so is Anderson Pac. But I get what you're saying. Yeah, but not. Yeah, Anderson. Not on the artist side. He's not 10 million platinum like Bruno Mars is.
Starting point is 01:36:31 He's not putting Bruno Mars on the first quarter. Super Bowl halftime show. Right. True. Yeah. Here's something else that they're promoting to come next year, spring 2022. That would be the Lovers and friends festival with the greatest lineup

Starting point is 01:56:00 Which got me thinking, after we had that conversation about buying routes and the planes and united gets this route delta buys this route it's a better route so it's less traffic cool but how long should it take us to get to some of these places that's where that led me and that's what if we're buying routes and the route that spirit buys is six hours seven hours to la and the delta route that they buy is uber black get you to thinking just about all of the and back to my 1920 fight to get into the air doc that i saw. It just gets to thinking about how long it should take to get places. If it could.
Starting point is 01:56:50 Like they were talking about Elon Musk figuring out a way for the train to get us to London in an hour. Yeah. Right? How long would it really take with all our technological advances
Starting point is 01:57:00 to get to Los Angeles really? No, but remember the Concorde used to be getting motherfuckers there in what like two hours what to los angeles you don't remember the concord airplane no no yeah i don't i don't and i never got no plan to get you to la in two hours it was something light it was something fast like super i don't know the time exactly but it was quick as shit we know a plane could get us to la from new york in quicker than five hours i guess i don't know the time exactly, but it was quick as shit. We know a plane could get us to L.A. from New York in quicker than five hours. I guess.
Starting point is 01:57:29 I don't know shit about shit. I'm not out of Concord. All right, moving on. Moving on. Moving on. It's fine. It's fine. It's fine.
Starting point is 01:57:34 It's fine. It's fine. Moving on. Moving on. Scarlett Johansson. Scarlett Johansson versus Disney or Disney Plus or both of them. Disney. Disney Plus or both of them. Disney. Disney Plus Plus.
Starting point is 01:57:46 Scarlett Johansson sues Disney for breach of contract over Black Widow release. Disney's decision to release Black Widow on Disney Plus at the same time it hit theaters has sparked a legal battle with Scarlett Johansson, the actress tasked with playing the Marvel superhero. In a lawsuit filed Thursdayursday in los angeles superior court attorneys for johansson alleged that the star's contract was breached when the studio opted not to debut the film exclusively in theaters a move they claimed to press ticket sales for the avengers or a move they claimed depressed ticket sales for the avengers spinoff much of johansson's compensation compensation was tied to the box office
Starting point is 01:58:26 performance of black widow if it hit certain benchmarks bonuses would kick in but none of the bonuses kicked in uh the numbers uh allegedly are down on this i think it would did like 312 million or whatever it did disney wasn't happy with it. And now Scarlett's not happy with it. She's saying, I lost upwards of $50 million in benchmarks because y'all decided to release it at the same time. No, not release it exclusively. It was supposed to be released exclusively to the movie theaters. And now y'all releasing it on Disney+. This has happened a couple times during the pandemic.
Starting point is 01:59:01 Right, but this particular instance here is her contract and her money was tied incentive-based. Yeah, it was incentive-based and it was tied on the performance at the box office. They're saying, by you splitting that, you're giving people an option to stay home or go to the movie theater.
Starting point is 01:59:20 Sure. People, especially now with COVID and all that's going on, or just laziness, can elect to stay home. I remember a similar fight with Chris Nolan when whatever that shit was called with James Washington. Justice League? No. What was that shit called?
Starting point is 01:59:36 Tenet. Tenet. Tenet. There was a similar fight that he had. His shit was incentive based. But again, now, you're not going to give me the same contract bump that you were going to give me for the theaters. Like on the Disney Plus, what do you call it? When they order it from Disney Plus, you're not giving me the same back end bread? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:59:54 Now you're saying I did not hit my benchmarks in my contract because ticket sales weren't wherever we expected them to be. But your numbers are still high because people watched it on the streaming app. That wasn't in consideration when we did the contract. So it's like, y'all made all y'all money. Y'all not cutting me in on the streaming part. Yo, I just learned this too, by the way, and talking to Keeb earlier.
Starting point is 02:00:20 Disney announced in March that Black Widow would premiere simultaneously on the studio's subscription-based streaming service for a premium $30 price. Stop right there. Oh, as well as on the big screen. See, now, I pay for everything. I pay for HBO, Peacock. I pay for it all.
Starting point is 02:00:36 This is wild. When I pay for it, that's it for me. So whatever movie comes out on HBO Max, I'm assuming I would see it. Not Disney+. I don't have Disney+. I have Disney+. I have Hulu. I didn't know they were charging extra for it.
Starting point is 02:00:47 They charge $30 extra for their premieres. They charge extra on their premieres. With your subscription. On top of your subscription price. Correct. You pay $10. It's not all of them, though. I watch Soul.
Starting point is 02:00:56 Select. Just select the ones that are in the theaters. The ones that they did the simultaneous release. Like a premium. Correct. Mulan. Because I watch Soul. I watch Soul, which is Pixar. It's a premium movie, too. I didn't pay release like a premium correct Mulan I watched Soul which is Pixar
Starting point is 02:01:06 it's a big that's a premium movie too I didn't pay anything extra for that Mulan they did that with there was like two or three more
Starting point is 02:01:13 that when they dropped in theaters and on Disney Plus they do it what do we have they do it that's what they do they do it
Starting point is 02:01:20 it's saying it right here that they do it they do it so now you pay $10 in subscription price another $30 to see the movie and your stock price soars It's saying it right here that they do it. They do it. So now you pay $10 in subscription price, another $30 to see the movie,
Starting point is 02:01:30 and your stock price soars after all of this happens. And you come tell me that I didn't meet my benchmarks? No, no, no, no, no. Something's wrong with that. But I'm glad that it's happening to white people too. I'm glad that Scarlett Johansson has to deal with this the way the rest of us have to deal with it. But it's fucked up. Disney is pulling a move.
Starting point is 02:01:47 Yeah, they are. I mean, like Spotify told me, we didn't hit our benchmarks after year one. It was number one. We didn't hit none of the benchmarks. Not one. And then they won't let you see the numbers. No, you can't see them,
Starting point is 02:01:56 and you didn't hit none of them. And run along. And run along. And that's what Disney is saying. That's basically what they're saying. And that's what they said in response. We paid her $20 million million and we're done now. Goodbye.
Starting point is 02:02:11 No matter what you made. Yeah. I don't care what your contract said. You did a Disney movie. Disney, Disney proper. Disney movie. If there's no Disney streaming, Disney plus. You did a Disney movie.
Starting point is 02:02:23 Which means Disney is going to do fuck shit with all their properties. They own a streaming service or we got one coming out or anything that's Disney. If we take our shit and put it there. Yeah, we rocking. And sorry, Scarlett Johansson. This is a Marvel World thing. I could have got the girl that stands in front of 42nd Street to come play this role. And it might have done the same thing. That's their that's going to always be their arguments the green bay packers
Starting point is 02:02:47 arguments the spotify argument it's always that side of the argument until you got to go bring randall cod back and i mean i'm not trying to take the company's side on this oh then take this but at the same time like the pandemic was unexpected like we kind of all this shit was adjusted on the fly it's not like we had this in place to fuck you when did the movie drop
Starting point is 02:03:10 the movie just dropped last like a couple weeks ago theaters are open yeah but from a company standpoint people are not going to the theaters we not putting this out
Starting point is 02:03:19 to take a L we not doing that that's not happening so modify let me get to the L up in the room so modify my contract. And it says that she attempted to do that
Starting point is 02:03:28 and was told to run along. But let's get to the elephant in the room and why this is important. They're going to have to bust down the royalties. Maybe not now. Oh, it's happening. It's going to happen. Maybe not right now, right?
Starting point is 02:03:43 But see, a lot of niggas went over to spotify after the joe button blow up and spotify had to explain the joe button blow up y'all maybe still went there but y'all came with questions yo dog what happened over there what happened what happened that hey man joe's a fuckhead all right that's all i need for some this might not change for her but disney or these production houses are gonna have to bust down and change the royalty rates for streaming there will be clauses going for the actresses so i'm glad that the hollywood white elite is now in the same boat as the nigga musicians. Hey, we want more money from streaming too.
Starting point is 02:04:29 And we don't get 20 million to show up. No. Hey, we want it. Hey, we think you should have it too. Everybody should get it. But yeah,
Starting point is 02:04:37 they got to do something because that's not right. Yeah. I'm pretty sure, well, I would hope anyway, going forward, there is some type of a clause in there. Like, you got to negotiate that. But without her.
Starting point is 02:04:50 But without this happening. Exactly. I was about to say. We don't get there. Without her falling on a sword. Right. We don't get there. Because they definitely probably won't do no more business with her.
Starting point is 02:04:58 Right. So now without her falling on a sword, other motherfuckers would have been getting raped too. Black Widow set a pandemic era box office record with its 80 million dollar debut in north america and earned an additional 78 million overseas it also pulled in 60 million on disney plus ticketed uh ticket sales steeply declined in subsequent weeks and currently currently stand at 319 million globally putting black widow on track to become one of the lowest grossing Marvel movies of all time. See, that's misleading
Starting point is 02:05:28 because we're in pandemic time. True. So who knows how that really would have performed. But Black Widow is also not a marquee. I know, it's not prominent. It's not one of the Marvel. I saw Ant-Man go. Yes.
Starting point is 02:05:41 True. I've seen some of the lesser. Actually, that's what Marvel is doing now. They're taking some of the stories that you might not have. It's not Avengers and X-Men. And they're putting them on the screen. But they're rocking. So I don't know how this would have did had everything been okay.
Starting point is 02:05:53 And I hope she gets her money like I hope all the creators get their money. And on top of that, like, Disney, this was supposed to drop last year. They've pushed this movie back about four times now at least you know no we can't waiting for theaters to open waiting for theaters to open same thing they did with when we're speaking about a tenant yeah that movie was pushed like some of these movies that they're banking a lot on this was supposed to come right after avengers or after spider-man i'm sorry the pandemic hit and it fucked everybody up so now we have to adjust on the fly we don't want to take an L
Starting point is 02:06:27 as a company no matter what so if we gotta keep pushing it back push it back to try to make the most of it cool we can't hold it but for so long
Starting point is 02:06:34 they made 319 right this is what happens you gotta modify this you gotta come to the table and say look we gonna lose we don't want you to lose
Starting point is 02:06:44 but you gotta take a slight loss right like so we gotta adjust this to the table and say look we gonna lose we don't want you to lose but you gotta take a slight loss right like so we gotta adjust this to the streaming versus the back you gotta do that it's only fair but again
Starting point is 02:06:52 big misses don't have to be fair cause they feel like they doing you a solid and that's that's kinda where it stands like they felt like I'm sure Spotify felt like they were doing you a solid
Starting point is 02:06:59 like nigga shut up take this sit your little niggas down it's the most money you ever made in your life shut up yeah no it's true and that's what they telling her like yo you in the Marvel universe Shut up. Take this. Sit your little niggas down. It's the most money you ever made in your life. Shut up. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:07:05 No, it's true. And that's what they telling her. You in the Marvel universe. But they own the narrative. Biggest franchise in the world. Shut up. They own the narrative. So they can make you out to be a villain in the newspaper. And then you look like a greedy bastard.
Starting point is 02:07:17 And the rest is history. Well, anybody with sense should kind of understand this. A lot of people don't got sense, I assume. Yeah, you're right. Common sense ain't common. A lot of motherfuckers don't have sense. And I don't even think that's fair to say. This shit is so complicated. Is that true? No, no, no. This shit is so intricate. I'm talking about
Starting point is 02:07:34 just the basis. I don't mean to understand. I'm sorry. You're talking to a nine to five person. Right? Most of the world are workers. Me. So when you're saying, yo, I made $20 million and that wasn't good enough, sit your greedy ass down. That's the narrative they'll paint. Of course. They did it to mad athletes. Me. So when you're saying, yo, I made $20 million and that wasn't good enough, sit your greedy ass down, that's the narrative they'll paint. Of course.
Starting point is 02:07:48 They did it to mad athletes. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? They did it to, I remember Sprewell, all of them, they did it to them. Terrell Owens,
Starting point is 02:07:54 all of them, they did it to them. Like, so when you control the pen, you control how the story gets told. Yeah, but today, we're in a,
Starting point is 02:08:02 people recognizing and understanding and demanding their worth time it's happening more today than it's pretty much you think people ain't look at joe like he was stupid for turning down spotify deal they all said that they all said joe's stupid don't know how to do business can't conduct business is asking for too much and don't deserve shit and then watch the white girls go get 20 million dollars a year there it is right there easily said and they ain't saying fucking people oh yo she caught
Starting point is 02:08:26 that well and and and on the flip side of that right like to ice's point that's where the world is today and me in alignment with the world right when that spree wall spree wall story came out and they ran with the narrative to your point uh when he said i need to take care of my family he said you can't take care of your family with 13 15 million dollars whatever it was and we killed him
Starting point is 02:08:49 I was young so I killed him too today understand definitely understand differently than I did back then
Starting point is 02:08:57 they killed Terrell Owens and I didn't understand it either back then Terrell Owens wanted more upfront bread cause you know
Starting point is 02:09:04 NFL money ain't guaranteed. So he was asking for more money up front. But the way they penned the story was like yo, you make XYZ per year. You're under contract to make XYZ per year. Not knowing in that third year they could cut your dumb ass and not owe you shit. I just watched this happen with
Starting point is 02:09:19 Le'Veon Bell when he was a Steeler. You know what I'm saying? And Steeler fans myself included was like, yo, what the fuck is you talking about? And the verbiage from the other side, right, is the same every time. In Sprewell's case, they said, nah, nigga, you make $15 million. In the Packers' case, they said, we offered Aaron Rodgers X amount for the next two years. In Le'Veon Bell's case, they said, nah, he's on the contract. He's getting this.
Starting point is 02:09:47 His fans items, he's getting paid this. And Spotify with me, and here we are. Disney, too. It's always that. Disney, hey, we gave a $20 million, dog. What y'all want? And so, again, the average reader is like, fam, you are blessed. Our whole lineage hasn't made $20 million.
Starting point is 02:10:04 You made it for three months' worth of work of work right so now she gets the villain stamp and they'll blackball the shit out your dumb ass with the villain stamp yeah well let's start painting narratives you know yeah like let me see them do it to this beautiful white woman they will they gonna try watch they gonna try again she's a and she's a megastar. If they'll do it to her, then imagine who the fuck they'll do it to. You know what I'm saying? She a megastar. True.
Starting point is 02:10:30 No, I'm sure. She's an A-list celebrity. I'm with you. All right, the draft. I didn't watch it. I didn't pay any mind to Ish going back and forth to Atlanta in the weeks leading up to the draft. You didn't even keep it, did you? Not at all.
Starting point is 02:10:46 He was operating right there, full sight. I was in front of my face. That's crazy. Honestly, Ish, come on, man. He's down there making the connections. You know what else is wild, Joe? He heard you saying. He's pitching.
Starting point is 02:10:56 He's saying the Knicks might get him. I was a player for Ish's nephew. He was like, yo, this is Ish from the Joe Bunton Podcast. I think you should draft him. Yeah, I was down there talking to the billionaire executives of the Atlanta Hawks. Yeah. That's what I was doing. I think so.
Starting point is 02:11:09 That's your bag. Talking to billionaire executives. Yo, the conference is or whatever. Seminars. Seminars. Yo, it was a seminar about his cousin. What do you even think about? That's why there was girls there.
Starting point is 02:11:20 It was about an NBA player seminar. It's all making sense. These niggas is retarded. We are. Is you was in Atlanta? I was. Like for the draft? I was.
Starting point is 02:11:30 But, but yo, the draft was in Brooklyn. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. That's crazy. Wow. Watch what Trey Young did to us in the playoffs. You know who's not in Brooklyn or New York at all?
Starting point is 02:11:42 Who? It's his very talented cousin. And nephew. Nephew. Nephew. Both of playoffs. You know who's not Brooklyn or New York at all? Who? Ish's very talented cousin. And nephew. Nephew. Both of them. And guess who I'm going to regret? Neither one of them came to Brooklyn or New York. He's going to light us up, too.
Starting point is 02:11:52 It was Atlanta. They knew. The Knicks dumb. Ish might have been tampering. The Knicks are stupid. Now that I think about it. Ish tampered. You definitely tampered.
Starting point is 02:11:58 Congratulations to Sharif Cooper on being drafted. That's amazing. Congratulations. Real, really amazing accomplishment. Happy for him. That's amazing. Congratulations. Real, real, really amazing accomplishment. Happy film, fulfilling his dreams. It's Atlanta.
Starting point is 02:12:12 So, you know, he's going to have a blast out there. Got another, got another short guy that gets busy over there. That's what you're doing. Oh, look at this Joe.
Starting point is 02:12:22 That's what you're doing. Oh, wait a minute. What the,? Oh, wait a minute. What the? Wait a minute. That's what you're doing? Is this a case? Ish. You didn't.

Starting point is 02:13:25 getting drafted. No wonder, we talking about generational wealth and all this shit. Yo, Ish, how you feel,
Starting point is 02:13:31 man? What? About what? Don't do that. I'm asking you, you gotta be specific. About what? Feeling good about a lot of shit.
Starting point is 02:13:38 That's what he wanna know. I'm happy that he got drafted. I'm proud that he got drafted. I'm perturbed that he got drafted number 48, but, you know, you're still a blessing. I don't give he got drafted. I'm perturbed that he got drafted number 48, but, you know, you're still a blessing.
Starting point is 02:13:47 I don't give a fuck if you get drafted number 98. it's still, it's a blessing, so you can't, you gotta, you know,
Starting point is 02:13:53 look at it as such. That's amazing. It's a great, it's a great feat. I did want him on the Knicks. I did. They did too, and they gone.
Starting point is 02:14:01 But we would've never got him on the Knicks because our entire draft board got leaked around the whole league so everybody knew everybody that y'all wanted everybody knew
Starting point is 02:14:09 the top 40 rated players on the Knicks board and I feel like teams only have it out for the Knicks and the Giants only why do you feel that
Starting point is 02:14:18 that's because they're his team no because the Eagles hate the Cowboys but they're friends if we can hurt the Giants. I feel like that exists in basketball, too. Enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Starting point is 02:14:30 The Warriors, the Pacers, and the Hawks now have it out for the Giants. Scream and scroll down. I mean, not the Giants, the Knicks. The Knicks. The Knicks wanted to take your nephew with a little last pick instead of Jericho Sims, which I'm happy about, though. Hey, hold up. Round of applause. I'm happy about, though. Hey, hold up. Round of applause.
Starting point is 02:14:46 I'm happy about that. Look what the Knicks did. What we did. They had the 19th pick. Traded back for some draft capital. They had the 21 pick. They weren't big on Kai Jones. And they weren't big on Keon Johnson.
Starting point is 02:15:02 They drafted him for them. They were big on Trey Murphy III. They were big on Corey Kispert, Moses Moody. Scroll up some more. Let me tell you, everybody they was big on. Chris Duarte, James Boknight, Davion Mitchell. All the niggas they wasn't going to get. Kaminga.
Starting point is 02:15:17 They was big on all of them. They was big on your nephew. Don't let me get into this. I'm out of here, man. Listen, congratulations to your nephew. Congratulations to the get into this I'm out of here man Listen congratulations To your nephew Congratulations to the Knicks I hope some of them
Starting point is 02:15:29 Pan out And congratulations To everybody that was drafted We'll see how this goes How we feeling How we feeling Ish About Westbrook Yeah we got Westbrook
Starting point is 02:15:38 Westbrook to the Lakers Is the talk That's where we at We got Westbrook now We You French No nigga I'm a die hard Laker fan Hey Ice If you don't take Your dusty ass back With that Liberty belt That's where we at. We got Westbrook now. We. You French? No, nigga. I'm a diehard Laker fan.
Starting point is 02:15:46 Hey, Ice, if you don't take your dusty ass back with that Liberty Bell. What happened to the process, Ice? He's still there. I said one of us is leaving. Don't nobody want their process. They're still processing. One of us was leaving. They still processing.
Starting point is 02:15:59 They said spam. Good luck over there. Yo, anyway. They let the Knicks process catch up I like Westbrook He plays hard as shit I don't know What the Lakers are doing though
Starting point is 02:16:11 Why you say that? Yo we just stuck in this We gotta win today So now we gonna beat LeBron is 40 Yeah You gonna fuck yourself And he gonna get another max deal
Starting point is 02:16:22 You gonna have to max all three of them out Yeah There you go So now you killing Your future And you're going to fuck yourself. And he's going to get another max deal. You're going to have to max all three of them out. Yeah. There you go. So now you're killing your future. So you want to win now? So you wanted to keep KCP and Kuzma? No, I didn't want to keep them. What we're learning, and so we can jump into the sports bag.
Starting point is 02:16:38 What we're learning is that role players matter way more than we give them credit for so if you look at most of the good teams in the NBA the Bucks, Phoenix Utah those quality teams even if you want to say the Clippers yo role players matter a lot just the stars don't only win you need the Rick Foxes and the Robert Orries
Starting point is 02:17:00 and all those other motherfuckers to win when you selling a whole team to get three or four people, now you're stuck with no bench. And then you'll be mad like, yo, they're not deep. I don't think they're finished. So when one nigga gets hurt, you're fucked. I don't think the Lakers are finished.
Starting point is 02:17:16 I don't think this is their roster completed. Who are you going to pay? No, they're just getting started. I don't really know. You got to pay them. You don't need to pay nobody. All these veterans is willing to go over there. They want to ring tomorrow. And that's the point that I'm making.
Starting point is 02:17:26 They'll take the minimum. What do I got to do? No, they won't. Yeah, they will. Do the Lakers make the Western Conference Finals? Yes. Yes, we do. Is she saying no?
Starting point is 02:17:37 Healthy, we should. If you're healthy, yeah. Yeah. I'm only saying healthy. I'm not even going to say it. It's not a guarantee. I'm not mad at this trade only because I feel like LeBron wants the ball in his hands less. LeBron will play less games and less minutes.
Starting point is 02:17:53 And who better to have than Russell Westbrook as the motor if LeBron is not on the floor one and two. If I have to put the ball in Russell Westbrook's hands and take it out of LeBron's, then LeBron's on the wing and I'll take LeBron on the wing. Also, my beef with Westbrook, one of my favorite players is, it's only his brain. It's only his brain.
Starting point is 02:18:13 Try to do too much. You don't have to leave. So if you give me Russell Westbrook's just ability with LeBron's brain, that's not a knock because I love Russell Westbrook
Starting point is 02:18:22 and I would never want him to be mad at me. But if you put LeBron's leadership basketball IQ and leadership and all that shit with Russ's ability and this might work depending on who else they put there
Starting point is 02:18:35 and depending on how they mesh they went to dinner last night at LeBron's house we're putting the egos to the side where has LeBron been planning this We're putting the egos to the side. Listen, LeBron's been planning this shit. That's King Tampa right there. This has been happening. This has been in the works. But I'm happy for this because
Starting point is 02:18:51 I like to see the players. That's King Tampa, huh? Not Tom Brady. Him too. The GOATs. But you got to be a GOAT to be able to do that. Yeah, exactly. Without nobody saying it. Exactly. But I like this because I like Westbrook going home. They let LeBron break the COVID rule.
Starting point is 02:19:08 Or went to party with drinking. With no mask. Was right back at game three. He said, Silva, LeBron, shut up. I don't care. Yeah. I don't care. Again, yo, you still need a bench.
Starting point is 02:19:20 We still haven't addressed the big man problem. We will. You're not out there with Mark Gasol winning nothing. You'll see, man. You have a family member that got drafted and you was faithful on draft night? Absolutely. You're not going to root for the Hawks? You're fucking right.
Starting point is 02:19:38 But you didn't even think about being unfaithful on draft night? Like with that suit on? I would have. Your whole family dressed in Atlanta? I would have loved for him I would have loved for him To go on the Lakers No no no You're totally missing
Starting point is 02:19:46 What Joe's saying No he's I think he's Oh he's talking about the Lakers What the fuck Yo it's just such an old geezer Yo let's get out of here man Hey check this out
