They clowning LL for what? Every eight months, they just. Fam, nigga said LL got what his videos every 8 months they just fam niggas said

LL got out the pool with the wave cap on that's what they yo niggas said he went to the peep show and pulled an apple out his pocket and started eating it

while he was looking at the girl yo young niggas is crazy dog LL was kinda flagrant that's funny he responded to that too

that's funny I know that's that, too. I know. That's funny. I know. That's what was funny. Yeah. But no. I don't want to see him. Anyway.

Y'all getting public zen of me today. I ain't playing with y'all. Hey. I don't know, though. I don't know, though. Maybe not. Maybe not. I don't see that happening.

Maybe not. Nah. Maybe not. Nah. Y'all swear I'm immature still. Well, sometimes. Nah, but there's a choice. But it's still immature. I don't see that happening. Maybe not. No, maybe not. Y'all swear I'm immature still. Well, sometimes. No, but there's a choice. But he's still immature.

I choose that. You choose immaturity. Immaturity. That's fine, but you're still immature. I think that in itself is immature. No, no, I disagree. Come on. Sam, so when you actively select immaturity.

Old wise one. Here come fucking old wise one over here. I'm chilling, my nigga. Well, come on, man. Teach me something. Learn me. No, I'm good. Some dumbass niggas talk about, if Ish handled all of Joe Biden's issues, there would be none.

I'm like, shut up, nigga. Yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? Fuck Ish. He can only try to sound smart. He get in the car and make mad, bad decisions. Oh, boy. Hey, the rest of his life being shambles.

He come on here and be wise. Fuck him. Yeah, I might have to choose immaturity today. But that's a choice. I know how to be better. Just don't want to be. But why you got to always be better? That's the goal. No don't want to be. But why you got to always be better? That's the goal.

No, the goal is entertainment. Via being better? No. Nah. Not when it's time to entertain. The camera's on and that shit can count. That ain't real life. That ain't real life.

Real life is when this shit is off. Cool. Now what? I'm with you. Yeah, come on. They don't be believing that. Don't worry. I called some friends today

but calling Surf don't do nothing because he kind of mature now too that's facts he was very mature when he was here with us a couple weeks ago

look at how look at how see oh man but I I offer resistance to that why because maturity

and immaturity is all perspective why do we say Surf is so much mature now? Because you're not shooting people at fucking two in the afternoon. The fuck are we talking about? Because he grew up. Whoa.

Look what he had to stop. He could have still been doing that stupid shit. No, you're right. You're right. It's me that, oh, he's arrogant. Yeah. Oh, you're immature wait wait

stop no that's not fair fair I know I know I know why are you compared to rat ass

because because it's a matter of perspective what what shortcomings you think you got that you gotta work on let me hear it

I'm your humble, gracious, grateful, and highly favored host. Here with a few of my nearest and dearest. Parks is here. Ish is here. Ice is here. Corey is here. Young boys in the back, y'all with us? Yeah.

All right, and the mic is sounding good. How's everybody doing today? Doing well. Doing well. It's straight. Pretty good. How are you? Well. I'm doing well. You had a big week. Had a good week. Yeah, you did. I had a good week. Give a round of applause. Y'all talking about work.

I just mean a good week. I think that had something to do with your good week. They go together. It makes the highs higher when things are going well. Yeah, active week. I woke up when the Nicki interview dropped. Glad that the pod dropped with it. That was an interesting choice, actually.

I love that. It's work. Yeah. It's work. They didn't step on each other, did they? No, it highlights the work that's being done, though. Yeah. You got to do that.

Whenever you get the opportunity to showcase what your work ethic is, you got to show that. That was a lot that she had to say in that interview, actually. She went off. Yeah. She went off. I want to thank her. She was great.

She was great. The fans seemed to really enjoy it and appreciate it. And I don't think I've ever seen her that way and i didn't want to start with this but here we are here we are yeah i don't think i've ever seen her be that vulnerable and just comfortable honest and bold in in the things that she resists like the things that she opposes. Bold in it. Yeah. But with reason.

Yeah. That was the thing that I enjoyed about her boldness this time was that she gave reason for her boldness. Other people won't give you your flowers unless you do. Or give people, you know, you, for instance,

or other people in the field their flowers unless someone does. This is where i really fuck with nikki right because in the interview she was talking a lot about our influence and us licensing influence in our culture and just she really got into that shit and it's easy to say that and then on the live right she got in the black men i love y'all y'all are great y'all look everything she did all of that and it's easy to say those things for public posturing like everybody does that for consumer facing where hey you just pick the pick the hot topic that can rally people and go with that one. But then when the interview dropped, she spent the next few days just empowering me.

Yeah. Like she didn't have to go back and say, yo, nah, Joe had the best verse in that cypher. Oh, yeah, yeah. Hands down. We all knew that he would. You don't have to do that. She did say that. At that levelpher. Oh, yeah, yeah. Hands down. Yeah. We all knew that he would. You don't have to do that. She did say that.

At that level. True. All of these years later. Right. I told y'all when superstars say something, they saying it for a reason. So even when you can't spot that reason to just go out of your way to do that,

that was great. And she didn't stop there. No, she kept going. She continued. i want to thank him for allowing me to space and handling me with care she's been going ever since and that's what made it beautiful because often you just hear the words you hear the words right but then to follow it with action like this was her version of and actually she said it we are the only people

creating millionaires and billionaires and not even seeing 1% of it no more you get a few more people doing that of that stature uh huh

that's the important part of that stature yeah yeah yeah 100% and the conversation starts to go a bit differently so yeah I want to hit the round of applause again

shout out to Nikki shout out to Queens shout out to the Barbs the Barbs was fucking with me this week they held me down boy they let me reminded me what support feels like yo I'm so used to just going at this thing alone

it's like a renegade holy shit supporters oh y'all lucky I don't have supporters yo feels like. Yo, I'm so used to just going at this thing alone as like a renegade. Holy shit, supporters? Oh, y'all lucky I don't have supporters, yo. If I had some of them, and that's not true, I'm joking, of course. But, yeah, nah, that was pretty good. Go Barbs, man. I'm fucking with them. Y'all niggas gonna say something or what? Stop allowing me to talk about

Barbs. I was letting you rock on your time. I'm shouting out to Barbs. I can't tell you how you felt. I was shouting them out, too. That you felt that shit was real dope to see like yo you was actually usually anytime you start trending it's some bullshit attached to it that's not a shot at you that's just what we see thanks not saying you did it not not saying you do the bullshit but it just be some bullshit attached one way or another i'm always trending and i never look so it was and and and i'm late to know that that's really important to like the rest of the world to trend that's all why you think they chase it so much word they're doing all kind of wild shit to trend i get scared

when a lot of people start talking about me yeah you'd be like yo hold up why i got all these mentions what's going on yeah what the hell is going on Well I say Usually it's some bullshit Exactly Well if you If you get A million opinions Then

They will differ Right And now it's just Your little one brain Left to Decipher all of that But if it's an overwhelming Number and a positive

It's only me that got to fucking cut all these scissors off these hooks in my back ah the journey is long so stupid how do i gather the strength the other day in the pouring rain they lucky that lex was bugging out that day i was gonna go run up them steps and post a picture it's just to shet cory ass to fuck up don't tell me about what you about to do when the summertime is coming with all the workout shit, nigga. Do it right now in the rain. But I ain't do it. Bet you did.

Bet you did. But I wanted to. I wanted to. Blame it on that, sir. You know I would love nothing more than to run up the steps in the rain. You're not doubting that. Them steps, though? No, you like the rain.

I feel like you would want to slowly stroll up the steps. You don't like them steps. Yeah, you're not running up them steps. It won't you like the rain. I feel like you'd want to slowly stroll up the steps. You're not running up them steps. It won't be a fast run. I'd be the one to fall down all those steps. Even turn the corner. You really would.

I keep telling you, I feel my feet and my knees trying to get funky sometimes. You better lead them motherfucking steps along. Get to the top of them and you what you on the No.

That's disgusting. No. Yo. And edit that out. Hating ass nigga. What the fuck is he talking about? Oh man.

Alright so y'all don't have anything more to share on any of this? Just congratulations. No congratulations. Yeah. For real just congratulations.

And it was a great interview at that too. All right, Jussie Smollett has been sentenced to five months in jail and mad community service. Finally, one of the sagas appears to be over. There's mad more sagas out there. There is.

But this one, after years and years seems to have come to an end and he went off went off in the court yes he did he let y'all know he's not suicidal he's not suicidal I'm lost at that part he's concerned that maybe someone might try to cause him harm in the prison system.

He think he Epstein level. Like, they care. See, and that's why this is super interesting, yo. Because I normally salute niggas that are going to die with the lie. But this is different. gonna die with the lie. But this is different. Normally when you die with the lie,

you're not trying to continue to extend it. You want to just die with the lies that you've told already. You don't want to compound it with more lies and give your brain

more work when you're already halfway caught now. You just want to kind of die with the lie. No, no, you're caught. All the way caught. You're caught.

So in general. About 85%. Yeah, you still want to kind of die with the lie. No, no, you caught. Although I caught. You caught. So in general. About 85%. Yeah, you still got a punch for a hope in the lie. This nigga is remixing the lie. And then I'm mad that I got to come in and talk about it because his family seems so honorable and nice and sweet and polite and well-spoken. And they just look great and sound great.

And they get on the podium afterwards, his brother and his sister, adamant and speaking with conviction about his innocence. It's like, damn, man, I hate to see beautiful black people and then say, yo, get the fuck out of here but your brother's a liar your brother's a liar well wait no no hold on I'm not finished I'm not finished with him I've been on his ass

I've been on his ass for years I've been waiting this is why he's ill he said I am not suicidal. I am innocent. And I haven't stopped thinking about it since. In his brain,

they could kill him over the Subway sandwich hoax. I don't even think that's it. Really process this. I don't think that's it. What do you think it is? I think by putting that out there he can he's trying to get himself moved to a certain area

where under certain protections like yo I'm not suicidal I'm not suicidal just to put the thought of suicide out there so they might put him

under a watch where he's it's a tactic it's a crock of shit they're not gonna put him in gym pop he was never going I'm not saying gym pop I'm not him in gym pop. He was never going to gym pop. I'm not saying gym pop.

He got to get checked. I'm not saying any gym pop. I'm just saying he still might be trying to. This could be a tactic. That's all I'm saying. No. I am not giving him that scapegoat. This ain't a tactic.

This mad shit you could do in your cell and in transportation. You could talk to somebody and get moved somewhere. You could say the right shit and get moved. You ain't got to do all of this in court as a fucking famous actor no i'm not rolling no no no no no uh-uh not after years and years of watching this uh-uh i think he think they might kill him you know i hope you don't think that and that's valid you can't even joke about it and that's the problem with this even joke about it and that's the problem with this sensitive ass generation now

this is what the problem is you get shit like this you niggas say some cool water cooler shit that everybody got a rally behind it be clear bullshit but we can't say nothing

nah he won't end it I respect that part nah he won't end it I respect that part you gotta shut up shut the fuck up he walked out of court with the fist

that's the part I don't want to talk about you don't talk about it niggas be spinning it. Nah, look at that. No, this is a heat. You're doing a lot. He should get five more months for that. He need more time for that.

Nah, his people's in the background. We're doing it too. It's not hitting like it did when Carl Lewis did it. That's what I'm saying. Like, you know what that means. When Cap did it. You a victim. Shit, even when LeBron and them niggas,

when the Clippers didn't want to play the playoff game, they ain't giving that. Didn't have the nerve to say, I wouldn't lie because that's like punching in the face of all my ancestors for the last 400 years. Come on, dog. You playing every card.

You playing every card now and I I want I want yo dog this society is fucked up yo dog but I want

I want the community to be louder about him being full of shit why is everybody so quiet you know why nah you know why though come on nah somebody gotta step up and say who gonna do it yeah wave him Why is everybody so quiet? You know why. Nah. You know why, though. Come on, yeah.

Nah, somebody got to step up and say. Who going to do it? Yeah. Wave him. Who? They going to trade him? Trade him for the rest of the season. This has to be another punishment.

He's going to come back to the hood after that lie? I want to see what happens when he gets released. Nigga folded the whole show by itself. That's a joke. He didn't do that. Way to work, gone wrong. But that got to be bullshit

to make up a lie to get a new contract on a show that wasn't coming back anyway. And now for the next three years you're just sitting there fighting a case. It's still lying.

He's got to get the dodo of the last three years award it'll get much worse than this dog he looks great too man I feel bad for Jesse

I'm just trying to he gets the die in the hill award though yeah that's what I'm trying like he gets that yo you really never you throw this to the wheels fell off

he started putting more mountain to go high up the hill he started putting more dirt on it like this is what are you talking about climb the flagpole top of the hill he said yo your honor i respect you i respect your decision but i ain't do this i am not suicidal see and i don't even like the halfway tough shit man uh spit at the judge flipping the bird or something do something to do something to see men ain't oh we're gonna going to get to that, man. We're going to get to it later.

Do something. Middle finger to the camera, to the news. Something. Nigga will never work again, Joe. He shouldn't work... Don't say that. He should still work. Don't do that.

I stopped myself. I stopped myself, gentlemen. Yeah, but not really. Like, we were able to know where you were going. What you were saying. Y'all know me. Y'all know me. Enough of it came out. You should still be able to work.

Niggas have been forgiven for much, much, much worse shit and still aren't able to feed their kids. Oh, man. See why I need to be in control sometimes? Life would be so much more fun. He should continue to work. I would cast him as the guy to make up lies in every crime show. Law and order,

FBI, all of them shit. Die in the hell. Put him in there to look stupid. Live this out for the rest of your fucking life. No, I'd cast him.

If that becomes his brand, you have to salute it. I'd cast him and make that shit happen to him. Look what you did. Everything that he said happened. That's what happened in the scene now. Look what you did. Everything that he said happened. That's what happened in the scene now.

Look what you did after all of Ellen's hard work. This is what I mean, yo. This is crazy. You, you, you. Oh, man. Anderson Cooper

gonna flap the shit out of you. There is some real stand-up people out here fighting for some real shit. And this is the hoax you made up. There's a lesson in that. Let's hear it. Shut the fuck up sometime and just let some information come out first.

Like, people just want to jump out and jump behind it because other reasons outside of the facts. Picture that happening, Ice. Just give it a minute, though. Picture that happening. I think there's more lessons than what you're saying. We went over this lesson. This is three years old. Yeah.

We went over that lesson. I think the lesson here is, yo, you can look even stupider. If this continues, there's a way, there's a world where you can look even dumber than you look already. I feel like that's going to be a consistent theme this pod.

You stupid. Oh, boy. I do. Look, I feel bad for the trainers. They can't even go train at the gym in peace. You know, the trainers, they be having sessions at the gym. Them niggas got to be there like 12, 14 hours. They got to be there all answering questions.

Yo, man. Yo, what happened, son? Can't even really get their shit off. Damn, man. Damn. It might have helped them. It might have. It might have.

Jussie, they talked to the brothers they flipped on you you did that shit I know you thought y'all was friends but the two brothers flipped on you hey

these cops because they had it out for you that wasn't enough for them they went to the Home Depot man they got the footage they went to the gas station got the little they saw you behind

a little thingamajiggy they pieced it together hey they even they read the text they read they read your alibi yo go to Hawaii right after you

they read it all how on earth see and this the problem when niggas ain't from the hood yo like in the hood nah nah but in the hood we keep the law nah but in the hood, we keep the lie. Nah, but a good lie has a good exit strategy, too.

A good lie has a good out. What's the out here? None. Which is why I'm saying, he's just a bad liar. Had he dealt with any hood chick that would have pressed him in his cheating past. He would have knew that shit wasn't going to work. Oh, this would have been a crock of shit from the jump, yo. Getting caught cheating Bill's character.

And Bill's skills. Yeah, man. And the new generation got me thinking I'm crazy when these stories break. And I'd be like, wait, that happened in Chicago at the subway? At 3 a.m.? At 3 a. 3am and nobody said a you left a noose on your neck

it's a horrible lie yo you walked into the police station with the noose still on and now you want to tell me about the last 400 years of some shit sorry buddy sorry the niggas that was really getting nooses on they neck they rolling over mad at your dumb ass

it's terrible in the car when we was talking that was a good conversation but I was about to say we in a good place in assimilation right when you think about it cause you don't wanna be

in the car parks I was just looking out the window being weird saying yo man yo earth and humans, yo. This shit is ill when you think about it. I was dead ass, though. It's just mad strangers walking around.

Everybody with a history. Everybody going through different shit. And strangers, because they gave us that word, means it's okay to not know someone. Nigga, nobody knows anybody. We're just surviving out here. Facts. And that's pretty interesting to me, right? We're just surviving out here facts and that's pretty interesting to me right but we're just fancy animals as i further further the thought this

is a pretty good space to be in like we got kobe jordan tiger woods but you wouldn't want to be in the beginning of this shit because they they was bugging they was bugging back then that's like i saw um and okay you wouldn't want to be at the end. Like imagine what your great, great, great, like whatever that is, is going to be going through when it comes through on the news. Oh, shit, yo, comment here. It's about 19 minutes. All of us.

The aliens put the gate around the world. Dumb shit. Floods. It's going to be a lot of that. We got the good time. And that's where, not to give Corey any credit, but if his little atheist theory

were to be true, that's the only little part that you think about, right? Like, it's so much important, grand shit going on here in the universe. Why the fuck do humans think that God care about each of us?

Like, why do we think we that important to God? Honestly. And it's mad of us. Like, honestly. And I'm not rolling with none of that. But... You ever look at an anthill? Aw, come on, dog.

Hip hop or No Nah we gotta start with that That Lucky Day There you go He dropped early There you go And for the first time

You know I always talk about How I don't wanna wake up And listen to R&B I woke up and listened to R&B today. First thing you played was R&B this morning? I did. How did it make you feel? I felt pretty good.

It's a pretty up-tempo R&B this time. At least the first couple songs was nice and up. A little coffee? I didn't do the coffee yet. Lucky, what's your coffee? There you go. Yo, Ish. Ish?

Yo, Ish, yo. Yo, Alex. Yo, go ahead, man. Alex Alex because you like the ish whisperer can you get your guy right because if this is a glimpse of his tour act you had some lucky in the morning I would jump across that stage he's stupid

I don't fight that's gonna be the show the nigga said he don't listen to hip hop I mean he don't listen to R&B in the morning not first thing in the morning cause it's usually

a little sleepier but this was a little up alright well if it's upbeat that's different I'm talking about that you know the shit the sleepy R&B that Joe usually plays

I can't listen to that in the morning absolutely not right back to bed afternoon Right back to bed. Afternoon. Right back to bed. Night. Night.

We don't know what we're doing. What we've done to these conclusions. The thought that we can lose it all. We set this week on fusion. Instant, instant cult classic from Lucky Day. The melody reminds me of a little Frank Ocean-esque. In a good way. Instant, instant cult classic from Lucky Day.

I don't even know where to begin, honestly. I was ready to come in here and dedicate this entire podcast to Lucky Day. What a man. What a man. What a guy. He did it. He did it. Wednesday night, I'm out and about. Took a nap, too, so I was wide awake at around midnight, 1230,

straight to the strip club to shake some ass. Wait. Wait, you were shaking your ass? Yeah, don't say that. You were stripping? I didn't want to say nothing. No, no, yeah. We can't don't say that. You were stripping? I didn't want to say nothing. Nah, nah, yeah. We can't let you say that.

Make some money? Why? Because there's something wrong with a guy shaking ass? At the strip club? Anywhere. You said you got up at 12 o'clock to go shake your ass at the strip club. Yeah. You got a tip?

No. I don't work there. I work for God. Come on, man. Go ahead. Well, y'all want to interrupt me with this stupid shit? Y'all know what I mean. I went to see some ass shaking, shaking.

Right? And they doing their drill set thing in New York. They're doing that whole thing, and I'm in there. I'm just looking around. Strippers making gun fingers and shit yeah all that they throw signs up

and everything they claim they said yo yo and maybe now's not the time to talk about it but great time in New York for strip clubs

is it? phenomenal how so? there's more good strip clubs now than there's been there's probably only strip clubs now than there's been. There's probably only been three,

maybe two other strip club phases or periods. When Suze was popping, when Sin City was popping, but there's mad competition now. And there's a lot more beautiful women. So- What do you think? Is that a result of the pandemic? No.

It's evolution. What's happening with the strip clubs is what happened with everybody in Netflix. Netflix was Starlet. Starlet was alone standing here when Sin City closed and then a few other people looked around and said, nah. We can do that too? We can do that. So they're doing it.

So that is like five or six good spots so i'm telling y'all story but the story is me going to the whack spot first so you go to the whack spot they're doing a drill and not whack but just not really popping and they're doing a drill set thing and somebody on twitter said yo i know you heard that lucky day dropped early i said excuse me you left boy that was fly no no i went went on my phone put the earpods i hit i hit purchase went up to the dj booth i put the phone in my ear just to see what was going on and the first track was an interlude an intro he was talking and i skipped that but i'm in the strip club with the phone in my ear and then track two came on, which was this.

Fam, fam, fam, fam, fam, fam, fam, fam. Are you kidding me? I said, maybe I could play it. Are you kidding me? To start an album like this? I'm about to fan out. I'm about to fan out. Oh, my God.

Oh, no. Look at that fucking key change. Let's go. Let's go. A good go Turn this off a minute To the people unfamiliar with why Why I'm speaking about Lucky Day like this It is tough to be He's about 98% from the field since you've heard of him

Yeah I challenge anybody to tell me The three Lucky Day songs That they didn't like I challenge you to tell me, the three lucky day songs, that they didn't like, I challenge you, you can't do it, I tried, he was a little,

I ain't, him and Earth went in fire, came in, was like, but that was still kind of a vibe, him and Babyface, I came in here and said, hey,

enough paying respect respect enough paying homage you great be great he did the duet ep phenomenal put out two of his own old eps one one had misunderstood the other one had flood like what are we talking about with this guy he's been a new male r&b blueprint since he got here he's nice he ain't do what you other niggas did pop up with a classic and disappear no shots he didn't come with two great projects and then disappear he didn't go fall in love we gotta enjoy this before he go get a relationship and go start bugging. But right now, what it looks like is exactly what it looked like when he came and

performed at the pool party a few years ago. A guy that is just truly in love with music. And you don't start your album like this if you're not. How long has he been active? How many years? Five, six years, something like that. Okay. I came in here

and played Roll Some Mo at Parks Old Crib and then he did the pool it had to be about 5 years something like that

about 5 years his roll out for me introduction that roll out has been was similar to her they slow rolled

they slow rolled him okay he had to get the attention then he got the support then he had to just keep making phenomenal music. Like, Rolls-Royce was so great, a few R&B niggas tried to copy that. It's so great, I like the copies of it.

Like I said, misunderstood, different. He just hasn't missed. So now you drop your debut. Is this his debut, you're talking about? Yeah. Yeah, I guess so, right? This is his debut. Oh, okay.

Everything else was EPs. Yeah. This is his debut album, and this is a cult classic. This is some beautiful shit. You know what love is about And that's why you got the key to my heart And yeah, I'm moving on my own You're gonna bless me when you're in love Cause I know what your love is about Shout out to D-Mile, man

He's the guy That's producer, right? See, I like this. Oh, Prince lives on. Prince lives on. Let's do it. What record is this? Feels like.

Right after the other one. I like this. You got to just let this whole album ride. I don't even really know the titles of these songs because I've just let it ride extremely happy for lucky day congratulations on an amazing debut It's just super cohesive The interludes from this Are the same as or similar to some of the Interludes in the past

It's just a complete picture. He completed this. He started out with the up tempos. Midway got right in his bag. Shout out to Dirk on here. We'll talk about him shortly as well. But I don't know what to say. Co-classic.

It sounded really good to me. Well done. You know, I'm not the big R&B guy. It sounded good to me first thing in the morning. That's what I was going to ask you, Joe. As you being a huge fan of his, you're pleased with this, I take it. Better than

pleased. Way better than pleased. Okay. See, because being a fan of his makes it tougher. That's why I asked that. It makes it tougher. When you're a fan of somebody and they put out a project, you're going to, you're a little bit like tougher on it. Because I know what I want from you're a fan of somebody and they put out a project, you're a little bit tougher on it. Because I know what I want from you as a fan.

Yeah, but you don't make Floods and Rosamore and Misunderstood. You don't have the ability to even make those records and not be able to do this. I love when something comes out and i like it you know what i'm saying not like disappointed someone that something you're anticipating you're looking forward to especially from someone that doesn't have like a huge body of work and they deliver that's what i was laughing at like yo i'm in a strip club with the phone to my ear damn this feel good like that feels good to anticipate something like that it's like

when you when we used to fucking put the tape and on the top of the or the tissue on the top of the tape and want to tape something for the radio we couldn't wait for the release like that excitement about music i think is i think that's what's missing a lot and that's what people are trying to manufacture quickly and you can't you can't do that from a t't. You can't do that from a TikTok. You can't do that from just having a hard song real quick. You niggas keep trying to skip the work. He came to the pool party on the before. He did the BET highlight thing where, you know,

they put the new artists on for 20 seconds before the commercial break. He did that. Did he do a quick Grammy similar type of thing where it was a short? Something like that. Half a verse performance. Look at this guy, man. Candy drip. The looks. It's colorful.

This is hard, yo. He's that dude. Didn't do an interview. I even liked how he did it. And an early drop. And an early drop. And an early drop. And an early drop. That's bold.

That takes balls to do that. It didn't seem loud and I want attention. It's just art. Let the art do it. And it did it. That's dope. That shit is nice. That's dope.

That's a nice project. Congratulations to Lucky Day. That's a nice explanation. That's dope. You know, it's just real good. Real good. What else we got in the R&B world?

Mariah the Scientist. Ay! Oh, EP, right? Yep. A little four pack. Buckles Laboratories presents the Intermission EP with the funky

censored TV cover thingamajiggy. How's it sound? Good. I like three out of four. Thatiggy. How's it sound? Good. I like three out of four. That's good. That's great. On a four pack. Yeah.

On a four pack, that's great. And I allow her grace because she ain't where her bag is going to be yet. Right. Like, this is a new bag. She's figuring it out. Yeah, yeah. And that's why she's going to keep four packing us and EPing us to death. But I fuck with her.

I like that, though. Me too. I like when artists that aren't quite there yet just give me short projects. You know what I'm saying? And I like when you can hear that they're going to get there. Yeah.

And that's what I hear when I listen to Mariah the Scientist. I fuck with her. Good project. All right, what else we got? Come on, give us the thought breakdown. No, I'm serious. Y'all don't R&B me.

No, I'm letting you get your shit off. That's not my bag. I don't really know much about the audience. Knock it off, yo. Stop it. Y'all know me. Midnight came and I was glued to the phone, waiting.

Waiting for what? Dirk to drop. That's it. I saw you also proclaiming it an instant classic immediately. Yeah, I did that to fuck with people. That was for LOLs? Yeah. Okay.

People, you know, they used to do it with certain artists. As soon as it as it dropped it's a classic as soon as you hear the first note classic but no um i gave the dirk project two run-throughs immediately like i actually went to bed late i don't like doing that shit came out the gate so from the singles i didn't know what we were going to get with this album the The singles were Drill Dirk. Okay. I like both. There's Drill Dirk and then there's Pain Dirk. Pain Dirk is the auto-tune, sing-songy, melodic, singing about drug abuse and losing the homies and this type of shit.

And then Drill Dirk is I'm coming to find you and shoot you in your fucking face. Poor better. I felt like, I listened to it once. It felt like there was a little more pain Dirk on this. A lot more pain Dirk. Okay.

But the singles, so A-Ha was a single. Okay. That's Drill Dirk. Piss Me Off was a single. Okay. Drill Dirk. So I'm like,

oh, okay, you're going to give us more of that on this album. But he's been teasing for a couple years now No Auto Dirk was a project. Okay. so I'm like oh okay you're gonna give us more of that on this album like he's been teasing for a couple years now a no auto dirk was a project okay where it was gonna be just rapping no singing so I'm like okay maybe this is gonna be more towards that because we never got the project so anyway I'm listening started from first record I hear piano keys there's a lot of pianos yeah

and I'm like okay and he gets right into his bag. Just the shit that I've been going through. He dealt with a lot of loss recently. Talking about his brother dying. Talking about losing Vaughn. Talking about the shootout. There's a record called Shootout in my crib. Yeah.

So it's very vulnerable. Biographical. Yeah. Yeah. I liked it. Yeah. Yeah. I liked it. I like it. I think out of, and the other thing I liked about it is when the track list came out, I only saw maybe four features, which to me, I love because I want to hear what he has

to say. I don't want you to do a project loaded with all the best features in the game. I can go. It depends. You've done that quite a few times okay so i want to hear what you have to say not necessarily saying that they will carry you but i just want to hear dirk like the last project was a joint project with little baby i want to hear dirk i want to hear what you you've dealt so much. Let me hear you. And this is what he did on this project. So I think I was at maybe 12 out of 17 that I liked, which I'm not mad at because 17 is a pretty lengthy album today.

I hate that we even do that in hip hop. Why do we have to say how many songs we like three hours after it came out? Well, no, I've been playing this shit all day. I ain't listened to nothing else. Like this is it. So I don't know how many listens I'm at now, but, uh,

yeah, it was a great Dirk project. Um, congrats to them, to the team. Yeah. Yeah. This is,

you got one. And I also, the, uh, they dropped a million dollar game episode with, uh, him, Gillian Wallow, which is in promotion for the album. And one thing, I know everyone probably saw it already, it was when Wallow's talking to Dirk about forgiving his brother's killer. And why he needed to do that to grow. Like, I could have stayed here and stayed in this mode

and it would have been my downfall. But I had to let that go to go here because I got people to take care of. So just hearing that message, yeah, that was very powerful to hear him say that to Dirk in that room with all that Dirk is going through.

And that setting and the whole thing. Like, you got 30, 40 niggas behind you, so you're an old head. You're preaching to the younger generation. And he's saying, basically, if I took that route, I wouldn't be here talking to y'all today. Because I would have killed the nigga. I would have went right back to jail.

And I would have cost my family way more than just my brother being gone. I would have been gone, too. And that shit hit home. And you could see the emotion in it. You know what I'm saying? Like, he really trying to give some game, no pun intended, to Dirk and all their crew.

Because that shit going back and forth, back and forth, back and forth might not end well. And Wallo has that motivational speaker voice now. He does. Yeah. So you put that on in that room. No, you look at him like that. No.

I mean, I'm just saying he's in that bag. Like, dog, he's really in that space. I love that. And what I took, like, Wallo has, he's assertive. You know, his street record is legit. So, because I've seen people, regular people on Twitter who have nothing to do with any of this.

Oh, they need to stop. You know, it's easy for y'all to say they're not going to pay attention to you. Maybe hearing it from somebody that's respected in the same streets

that you in might hit a little different. So I like the fact that somebody who has some street cred is talking to him that way. It's the type of shit we've talked about

a million times on this podcast. Exactly. OG shit. Yeah, OG shit. I think... Y'all don't even know that shit. Yeah, they don't. I think...

Just doing it, though. I don't even know if it resonates like that. I just think the fact that... Just doing it. It gotta start somewhere. Nigga did 20 years in jail, dog. I could tell you what's gonna happen. I can tell you clearly, fucking Picasso, where what's going to happen i can tell you clearly fucking paint a picasso

of what's gonna happen if you to most of you motherfuckers it's either gonna be jail or worse and some people say jail is worse than death but yo dog i can write out what's gonna happen to you and so i think being that he lived that literally literally, it resonates way, way, way more. Even his street cred. That's kind of what I'm saying. The jail shit really solidifies, yo, dog, I know where you're going. For real, for real. I've been there already. It was a powerful clip.

Nah, it was dope. Salute to Wallo, man. Shout out to Wallo. And Gillian Dirk. Yes, everyone. What else? What else we got? Benny.

Benny. Benny drop. Benny drop. Ten to talk four. Benny drop. Benny drop. Ten to talk four. Benny drop, and we're back with a special guest. My brother, my family. I wouldn't have put that on the plan. Royce is here.

What up, what up? All the way from the D. Thank you for joining us. Royce is here in case I needed to be coveted in love. We don't do that? Yeah, y'all do, but Royce is here in case I needed to be coveted in love. We don't do that? Yeah, y'all do, but Royce is different. You niggas, man, y'all don't get the full scope sometimes. That's true.

Y'all come in here and just want, like I said at the top, niggas to be mature. But it's hip-hop. It's rap. It's provocative. No, it's not always time to be mature. So, anything that I've wanted to get off that I didn't get off, I've just

been calling Royce all week and just giving it to him. So, now we're here because I thought I had to brace up with love. Oh, okay. But, Tanner, talk for us first. Let's do it. P-Drop. Alchemist, Derringer on the beats just them two

I think so Beat Butcher I think did some samples there might be someone else on there I'm forgetting but it's a real

solid project man it's sounds like Tana Talk yeah it is it is Stove God went crazy on there

Conway went crazy on there the West Side Gun record is dope it's a nice project I love Benny Yo yeah like I'm biased to him like on there. The West Side Gun record is dope. It's a nice project. I love Benny, yo. I'm biased to him. I hope that he succeeds and does great with

all music he releases, but I like him. How could you not? I look at him, but outside of that, I'm a weirdo. He's on Def Jam in 2022 tasked with bringing that energy back uh-huh this project was i think independent though this is empire i believe so still yeah it's part of the plan yeah

no doubt in the freestyle he said yo street niggas about to get some label support or whatever the line was but that's what he's tasked with so when i look at him it just reminds me of when i got the def jam as he went crazy up there too it's a la leakers shout out to la leakers man you kind of got to go up there and go crazy now credit royce with some of that and flex benny toe tag that shit you sure did he told he goes he does i can't wait to see what they end up doing with Benny. I'm curious, too. Shout out to Benny. Shout out to the whole Griselda.

Always. Good project. Tana Talk 4 out. All right, what else we got in music? Come on. Oh, shit. I said he's not giving a review. I ain't listened yet.

You said you didn't hear it. No. It's just too wise and mature. And that is why. He doesn't have iTunes anyway. Yeah, he don't have iTunes. it's just too wise and mature and that is why he doesn't have itunes anyway and that yeah he don't have itunes he's getting his android over there so it's royce and i here give the review with breaking down the bar oh y'all just gonna feed us to the woods hey man who better so this is what this look like yeah yeah what program is this this is a dj dj app dj pro okay it's pretty good and this is the bitch jar that is the bitch jar you know oh dollar four with the real dollars in it and

you made me oh a dollar did i have credit in there nah yeah because it should not we don't we got to get our speech better we use that word a lot like casually I've stopped wait bitch yeah you owe a dollar but I stopped that's a buckish

that's a dollar though I've been you ain't stopped nah I've been good a couple hundred dollars there so you ain't stopped nothing I've been alright lately

what's lately yo shout out to my man G Money that made us the bitch jar yo that's another dollar that's dope. Somebody made this shit?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. One of the fans made it. Sent it. One of the fans made it. They bought that shit from Target and wrote some things on the side. Still dope. Still. But I appreciate the effort and the energy.

See, that's what we was just talking about. I appreciate when people actually take time and put effort and energy into whatever they're doing for me. And it starts. So they wrote on the jar to get right a hook. Four, three, two, go. Now, I am trying to figure out what kind of review I'm giving here. Am I giving it with my therapist ears that I listened with?

Am I giving it with my MC ears that I listened with? That'll be bad. That one'll be bad. Or do I want to just give it with the friend ears that I listened with? And shout out to Benny for picking that nigga's done started something beat. Like, these niggas be running from the 90s beats. They be running from them beats where it was X, like it was dudes on there. Where real rappers was rapping.

Yeah, he go right to it. So, I appreciate that from him. Now, the rise and fall of us. The rise and fall of y'all. It's out. It came out early. Are we judging it based off of

what we feel that they can do? Are we judging it based off of what we feel that they can do? Are we judging it based off of... It's a few different ways to look at it. I know. One way to look at it is if it gave you what you set out to fit, like the fulfillment that you were looking for, if it provided that for you, then we don't qualify to be able to say

that y'all hit y'all mark or y'all didn't hit y'all mark. If there was a certain, if there was a certain reaction that they were looking for from us, I would need to know what that is. And the way I feel, I don't think that they intended

for me to feel like this When you said if they hit their mark What you mean? Well I mean What was the goal here? As the artist Yeah as everything Like did they feel fulfilled

Once they put the project out? Yeah you know Cause I mean I I have my My theories on what the goal May have been for the rollout And then the music is the music What target were you trying to hit with the music?

Does the music match the rollout? Because I heard y'all mention that every song is not about y'all. Every song is not about us. Okay. Or about the fall of Slaughterhouse. I think the overall theme of the music, if we had to sum it up, is pretty consistent with the rollout. I just think the rollout affected me a little bit more.

I'm sure. Than actually hearing. A salacious rollout. Than the music did. You think that might have been a goal, though? For the rollout to affect you and to get you to respond to the rollout, which will then put light on the album?

Because, I mean, they did keep saying, just wait till you hear the album. Wait till you hear it. Listen to it. Like, they kept saying that. Well, at least Joel did. So, I was thinking it was like a little hidden treat on there for me.

Like, something that I needed to... But, no. There was no flowers? For me, it was a little... I'll get to it. I'll start it. For me, after the rollout, after the Insta Live with Joel,

and then the album dropping, for me it just was a little anti-climatic. It seemed like the roller coaster, it was like the wood roller coaster at Great Adventure. You watch it go up, it's going up, it's going up, and then you expect it, and then it's a little let down. And then I was mad a little bit. See, I've been dealing with just like a rollercoaster of emotions. I'm sure.

Like, I was a little disappointed that it wasn't more of. More spice? Yeah, you fucking got me riled up. I said the same thing. I mean, you are, come on, you in it now. You know what I mean? You in it now. Do it.

Don't halfway do it. Do it. I just, man, I just. It almost seemed like bait. It's like if I was trying to diss somebody first and I throw out a little something to just get you. The mousetrap. The mousetrap. It felt like the mousetrap. See the jump. Yeah, it's the mousetrap. It felt like a mousetrap.

They want you to jump. But with monetary gain attached. Yeah. It speaks to their sense of quality control. And this is a perfect example of shit that they do away from the group. Because when you step outside of what we're doing in the group, there's a such thing as things that you can do to bring down the quality of the brand, and there's a such thing as things that you can do

to raise the quality of the brand. You go do reality TV or you go do your pie, you come back to the group, now the overall quality is up a little bit. It's happened plenty of times. I did Bad Meets Evil, the numbers went up. You did the show, the overall quality is up a little bit it's happened plenty of times i did bad means evil the numbers went up you did the show the numbers went up you know i mean so like i think it is there's a such thing as a reverse to that so there's things that you can do that affect you and affect us you know what i mean and i don't think that they were conscious of that

you know i mean and i never was really tripping until it started to turn into us getting blamed for all of the fucked up decisions that they make. You know what I mean? I know that if you were in the studio with us, that one crooked verse that I like on the album, it would have been that on every single song. You know what I mean? the album, it would have been that on every single song. You know what I mean? So it's like, whenever I'm thinking of doing something lyrically, in my mind, I do great or I do nothing. Period.

You know what I'm saying? If you go in there and you just do shit just to do shit, you're going to get out of that what you put into it. The thing that I don't appreciate is this time you made it my fault. You know what I'm saying? And then you came at us in a way where you know that's not enough. You're just putting us in a position, you know what I'm saying? Like if we stoop to any of these levels, we just make y'all niggas look crazy. Crazier than y'all look.

You know that shit, man. lazier than y'all look you know that shit man you know it's not a line on that album that they need to be comparing to what to to anything that i'm gonna do especially if i'm upset so why you think i gotta be about a rap battle you know i mean like it's a it's a so so rapper rapper brain was not activated my rapper brain got activated anytime somebody think they should play with my name. Anytime. And the niggas that be playing

with my name, they should be playing with my name. Even six years retired or however long it's been, I feel like my track record speaks for itself. I don't have to.

And I wouldn't want to ever do that with them. I wouldn't want to do that with them. If their intention was to just battle niggas, like get niggas in there and it'd be us versus them, they would have rapped better.

Way better than that. They got way more entertaining. Do you think the intention could have been to get y'all excited about something? Just to get y'all activated in some type of way? No. No. I just think it was careless. It feels that way to me.

It was unsupervised. Everything, though. Just like everything. The way they dress in the videos, their pants, everything. You know what I mean? Like, it's just... I hate Royce. I'm serious, though.

No? I'm kidding. Did you like Crooked's pants in the video? I didn't watch that whole video. Did you like Rooker's pants in the video? It's this nigga, yo. I didn't watch that whole video. You've seen his pants. All right. Leave me alone.

Nigga ain't gonna act like nigga's got cool pants. All right, I'm playing devil's advocate. That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna play devil's advocate. Hey, maybe we're just wrong somehow. What do you say to the people that just say, hey, shut the fuck up. Y'all are wrong.

Y'all been wrong. Y'all was holding shit up. We wrong about it. And the other two members decided to do something different. They decided to go. They waited for y'all. Y'all didn't want to do shit, so we took it in our own hands to just do shit,

and how could you fault that? What do you say to that? I don't have a problem with them rapping. I'm not wrong about shit. All I said was, we have an agreement in the group, in business, and then we have a standard that we hold each other to as friends. So, just speaking from a business standpoint, if you decided that you were done, the correct way to do that was to just tell us. And it would have been cool. You know what I mean?

Like, you kept that a secret. So now we're getting to the friend part. You knew that when you made this decision that you were going to blindside me. And you were willing to kind of like take that risk and just do that for whatever reason. I don't need to assume. It's just what it is. You made a decision knowing that the friendship would be a risk if you did it. You know that.

Okay, all right. You knew that you were going out there into an environment and you were going to create an atmosphere that was going to turn some of the fans against me. of the fans against me there was going to be a lot of um misinterpretations and people uh a lot of things being said that's misleading that will force people to jump to a conclusion and you allow them to believe shit that you know it's not true about me and you know i don't play like that i don't play with you like that i don't play with nobody like that and our relationship was fine like all of these issues that they're talking about. I didn't feel that. Honestly, that's the part that's been confusing to me. It's like, Joe, I love you.

I can see why they might use you as bait. Right? I don't think it's right. You stumped for why I'm stumped. Like, I'm not stumped about me. Plenty of niggas feel a way about me. Yeah. That's the part to me.

It's like, huh? Yeah, but you next to Joe. And now I got to try to figure out why it look like you next to Joe. And I have to interpret that a certain way. And listening to them. He said it. He said it. He said that I said no to the idea of doing a three-man group.

So he looked at it like, he said, yet again, you took Joe's side, and I was hurt. See, I thought that was hard. No pun. I thought that was super dope. What was? That where he said, no, if we ain't doing it, we ain't doing it. If it ain't all four of us, then it ain't all four of us.

I think they took that as him taking your side, not him. Like, let's say it was you and Joel and Crook didn't want to do it. I believe works would have had that same stance. Maybe they don't look at it that way. Of course I would have. Me too. Of course I would have. I think that's where the misconception is. In this particular scenario, Joe wasn't out.

And they know that. So why would you ask me they both say they don't know that and they both say they don't believe that I think that's the biggest biggest biggest knock from the fans

and reading everything that I've read is that the wide perception is Joe said I'm never rapping again and so based on him saying that

it's like, yo, so that mean you out too because Joe not rapping no more? All right, cool. We're going to go do us. And y'all stance is cool. Do y'all. But y'all got do what?

Do y'all and shit on us to do y'all. When should the fan perspective be included in the business and the brotherhood? When you market it, when you market it and you roll out to the fan, you got to get the fan appreciation.

You got to win them over. By making them hate us in line? If that's what they think going to work. There's some people that roll out trying to be true to self and just appeal to as many people as that can get you. Might not be the most profitable.

It might ain't work. I mean, they just put a project out. I do personally believe that there's a way that they could kind of do the same thing without it being nasty. They could have did that shit.

Could do that. That's exactly what I said. That's disappointing. That's the other part that's disappointing. Once you hear the project, oh, this was a choice. Y'all did not have to go this route.

There's other songs on here. Y'all are more than capable MCs. See, and this is where all right mc brain i like taper down by the way taper down i play it as a sleeper i believe taper down what uh the last up hard you know i keep saying rule number one if you want to be a rapper is well have something to say what are you you saying? I'm consistent in that. It was lazy there too. So don't come to me who is documented.

Like, I ain't getting into that. I agree with him. If you was coming to me like that, more should have happened. Like, it should have been a higher respect. But it's just no respect all around the board. And the diss and the quality and it together, in the rollout. But I think where I'm at now is, yeah, it's up in its thug. They didn't care. They didn't care.

I think they weighed it all. They thought about it all. And you weigh options. And you pick one. And you win. And you cut your ties you cut your losses there's nothing there's nothing going on there everything they said see some of that should just be real surface hey i'm cutting my losses we ain't do nothing in 10 years so that's that i'm blowing it up before i walk out the door and i'll get whatever gain comes with that and that's where grace got to come in yeah that speaks to this that speaks to the short

night the short-sighted nature of like the way that they move as creators and as businessmen and it's like if you're that kind of business man that's cool everybody's not an executive but it's like this role being played like you know you know, I'm a business mogul. You know what I'm saying? Like, bro. Why can't we all have that conversation? I see that a lot, too. Everybody talking on the internet.

Why is it so tough for four people to get together and talk? Well, you don't live in the same city to start. No, I don't want to talk. This is something, bro. You said we don't live in the same city. Yeah, I mean, it adds a little bit of a challenge. Oh, please. We're just here to help you.

In 2022, nigga, you could get on a Zoom call. Yeah. We just watched everybody maneuver through the pandemic that way. Every time we have a conversation on Zoom, and we did a bunch of them, all four of us, I'm at the studio. You don't leave the studio, so. Yeah, I'm at the studio more than I'm at home. Yeah. And they never been invoiced for studio time at the studio. You don't leave the studio, so. Yeah, I'm at the studio more than I'm at home. Yeah.

And they never been invoiced for studio time at my studio. Never been a time. Crooked has come to my studio. I ain't even know he's in Detroit. He doing a show on the east side with Swifty McVay or somebody. And he just be like, yo, I'm in Detroit. What up? He come through and knock down nine features in five minutes and be gone.

You know what I'm saying? Like, he can use my studio. I'm surprised he didn't have a key. You know what I mean? Like, he knows that it's accessible to him carte blanche all the time. Same with Joel. He came, showed up with Apollo Brown. I just wrote a verse right there on the spot,

laid it down. It had never been a time where it was like, you know, mi casa, su casa. You know what I'm saying? So when we were having conversations, creative conversations about things that we could do once we took the brand off of Shady and owned it outright, the big picture that we all were talking about was just, number one, regaining ownership of the master of the first album. All of the previous catalog that we have, all of the mixtapes. Did you achieve that or no? Yeah, we got everything. That's amazing.

Round of applause. Yeah, clap back. So it's a much bigger play here than just being able to agree on doing some new music right away. Right. You know, like while we're figuring that out, there's a brand that needs to be relaunched. Uh-huh. You know, so my thing is I can't come behind what y'all are doing and say, fans, here, buy this T-shirt. Right.

If it's two people that I'm talking to, one of them is going to say, fuck you, I hate your guts. And then the other one is going to say, I thought y'all broke it up. You know what I mean? I'm a day one fan. You know what I mean? I just believe, I believe their story

because they created this yin and yang atmosphere at our expense. So you don't believe that they have raised the value with all of this nonsense? Bro, they killing the value. And it's not my opinion. It's a fact. Until somebody can prove me otherwise.

You know? Like I seen, like Maul was like, yo, it's set so long, I don't think that many people care. But it's like, yo, I disagree. It's set so long, I don't think that many people care. But it's like, yo, I disagree. It's set so long where people aren't sitting around thinking that some new slaughterhouse shit is coming. But if we pull the trigger on something and we activate something, we can raise the level of excitement easy. No problem. That was where it was disappointing, too, because it's like watching this bullshit y'all doing.

You know what the energy is when it's four niggas doing doing it well that's what the fans want in a that's what the fans want so it's like they they encouraging something and they rooting for something that they think i'm saying what i'm not rolling with that i'm not rolling with that i'm giving slaughterhouse fans a little more credit with that. These niggas I see that's rolling with this nonsense, they ain't Slaughterhouse fans, all this divisive division. I've never seen so much of, yeah, crooking Joe Al. I've never heard that before this. Because they're being made to feel like they're taking what they can get.

Yeah, but that ain't no fan of me or nothing that I was ever doing. I feel like that about the fans. They be like, you know, Joe's a shithead. Well, that's not a fan. Let's just be clear in things. No, I don't think there's a slaughterhouse fan that is rooting for this. These are just fans of this. I don't think, and I could be wrong here,

but I think what Royce said where this kills the brand or it kills the value of the brand, I think you kind of do the opposite. Only if y'all tease the reunion down the line. That would be the only way to bring it up. That's what I'm just saying. And that's where that's a crock of bullshit. I'm not even going to let you finish because I see a lot of fans doing that.

Well, yeah, if Royce and I and them two as well put all feelings to the side and everybody just starts from a clean slate and gets into it, do I think that it could be valuable? Yeah. But now you're asking me to put my fucking rights as a human and my feelings to the side about people. Oh, yeah. And that's where the fans be having me fuck that.

The fans don't care about the feelings oh fuck them niggas you think fans care about feelings yo every time they say oh joe fuck some shit up you know i have feelings there i have feelings there and we cleared that right on up i get right to it so no we're not just gonna put to the side how i feel about this rollout about the decision making that went into it about who your collaborators are in this and what your frame of mind was when you put pen to paper and decide to do this no you want me to get back in the room with this person no i listen i agree i'm just saying in terms of the value of the brand and i've seen a lot of people oh i'm still holding on hope like they could just get

past this like it's got people more reinvested that forgot about Slaughterhouse. Watching all of this happen. Only for a flash of the pen. That's the problem with that. They ain't forgot about Slaughterhouse. Yeah, I don't think so. If anything, this is making them forget. Because this shit don't look nothing like Slaughterhouse.

All right. Let me not come in hot. Okay, go ahead. This is my thing this was the take away when I listened to the album at the end of one of them songs Crook says

if my brother tries to stop me from getting paid or don't want to see me get paid is he my brother did you stop anybody from getting paid I don't know I don't think so I can't call it

I can't call this fucking clown show I don't know did your brother make any money with you yeah see but that's my thing like cause I see I don't understand that line but i don't understand a lot we were four solo acts when would one person ever stop another person from getting paid

like you can go do a project whenever you want you can rap whenever you want like why does that weight and pressure fall on me because I retired because I didn't like the situation that I was in we were in or I was in and I didn't try to make anybody come with me I just stopped so what the fuck does that line mean it bothers me you didn't call me back man voice because I'm really trying to get to the bottom of it. And now that I've heard it, I'm not as emotional about it as I was. I'm sad.

I'm sad. I'm sad. Not about nothing creative. Niggas could do whatever they want to do. I'm sad that that was the end of the movie. I ain't expect to see that end of the movie. That's what it is. And that's it.

But who the fuck am I? Me and my expectations, right? Who cares? Like, that's what life is about. Oh, you niggas in here all somber and quiet. Yeah, me too. But why? See, and that's the thing.

We in rap, and it's men. What really happened? I don't know. When I talk like that, people say I gaslight. But nobody injured me or my family or impeded on my way to feed my children. Like, nobody did that. Nobody has. I mean, that's an optimistic way of looking at it.

I mean, I'm real big on my time. People value my time. And I was forced to. When I seen that shit and I heard that music, it was the end. So, like, the life of Slaughterhouse flashed before my eyes. Like, all of the memories, all of the time, all of the sweat equity. It's everything we put into it. You know what I mean?

Like, it was just a lot. It was a lot of work, man. It's everything we put into it. You know what I mean? It was a lot of work, man. And to make us look like, first of all, I feel like I'm being insulted with compliments. You know, you Grammy ass niggas. You know what I'm saying? And it's like, bro, listen, man.

On one hand, you're saying, yo, okay, they got money. They straight. And then it's like, they don't like money. That's a slight, yeah. You know what I mean? Like, I don't like money. Like, we all taking the same L here, bro. Like, I have no reason to turn down something that you're bringing to the table.

In a situation, did I help build with you? We own together. Why would i go away from that if it was just about money with me then like i said i could have just been like peace y'all i'm about to go over here and be mr bad meets evil this one's for you no not you me and him him and me you know if it was just about the money, I could be like Fucks Lauderhouse because Joe Trippin', you know what I mean? It wouldn't have been about taking the brand off of Shady. What do you think that that does to my relationship with them over there?

Personally. Since we all assuming. What do you think that does? That's a good one. Probably not the greatest. How's that work out? When Marshall find out, yeah, Royce wanted to take the brand off the label.

You know what I mean? Probably an uncomfortable conversation or two had to happen. That's where the smack in the face comes from, though, because you spent this amount of years trying to get off, working through all of the shit that Royce's personal relationships, fucking other people years trying to get off, working through all of the shit that raises personal relationships. Fucking other people not wanting to get off. Other people wanting to have a closer relationship. Like you got to work through those things.

And then you go through all of that to not even let a year go by. Like I'm not dealing with these stupid ass fans like, oh, you sat around for a year. Yo, do y'all know what happens in a year and you ain't have a typical year either true that part but i mean who cares about that i'm just saying that that matters though in regular rapper time do you know what happens in a year take a few months to put the album together it takes a few months to roll the album out after it's put together i don't. What the fuck did he say about having some bars for Lupe Fiasco? He said he had some, but he didn't want that to be the reason that Slaughterhouse got back together, or he said we could do a whole album.

We could go do an album and just get at whoever we want. No, I don't want to do any of those things like and i can't keep getting into jams because i reserve the right to certain things and this ain't even a jam and that's why i don't feel too bad it's like at the end of like a relationship right where you with somebody for some years and you grow apart you just grow apart it's nothing wrong you went that way i went that way i still got love but we just can't do this no more we can't be trapped in fucking turkey or or fucking and go wherever we was at with no way to get back home on tour fucking scrapping for food scrap for no no no no and no but i definitely don't want to stop nobody else from getting money

i don't like i don't even like. But I definitely don't want to stop nobody else from getting money. I don't even like that sentence. That sentence doesn't even sound right. That's a hell of an accusation. Could you? Well, my understanding of that is, hey, you didn't want to do whatever this deal was, and I had money in that.

And he said it on one of my interviews. He said, I'm in good with these people you making me look bad he said that so I guess that means you stop in this particular check if you don't want to do that alright so now they're going to remodel some shit

and this is what we get if I get emotional about it which I won't because the internet won't let you you say you hurt and they just fucking pile on and try to hurt you some more so you gotta be happy about it or feel emotional about it, which I won't, because the internet won't let you. You say you hurt, and they just fucking pile on and try to hurt you some more. So you gotta be happy about it or feel good about it. But listening to it,

yeah, that's where I'm at, man. That's where I'm at. Like, I can't be mad. Everybody gotta do what they gotta do. I'm mad that Joel made that fucking song, Coastin', and the song, he's saying,

we not friends, and the whole verse is about hearsay see that's the type of shit i'm talking about i'm not listening with fan ears where you're telling me that you heard a whole bunch of shit that i said through the walls and you felt a way about it but you never said a word about and you want to make me the bad guy because i sent the eyes the eyes mean I'm looking for you. The I's mean say something and let's start a conversation. That's the album that you wanted me to promote?

What you saying, yo, that's not my man. You be on Clubhouse. You was on Love & Hip Hop. You ain't shit. I was popping when the group got together. You wasn't like... All of that's cool, and that's your shit.

But you can't make your shit be mine. Yeah, I think that's my mature. Come on, Ish, give it to me. Give it to me. Am I being mature? Am I being mature, Ish? Tell the truth. I am, right?

You speaking your truth. No, I'm not. I don't do that. We don't want to do that, though. They do that. That's shit. And you're not even supposed to say that. So time stamp killer. But but no telling my truth there's not even a a man waiter you know what i think about that you got a man jazz that up a

little bit yo this is my perspective on things yo i'm giving you my version now not i'm giving you my truth get the fuck out of here sell a brick commit a crime you want respect from joe do the shit that men do when your fucking back is against the ropes that got me being silly now but i'm serious everybody's been there before i forgot what i did but i used to do some grimy shit my only problem here is i don't think i ever sold none of my people out to do it like it was just i'm gonna either break the law or i'll be looked at shitty by somebody i give a fuck about anyway i'm gonna do this to a stranger not my people so and imagine their response to that hurts because their response is well we what we ain't

people oh All right. Yeah, if we was friends. I just wish I could have learned about that my friend wouldn't my friend Wouldn't stop me from getting the bag It's like they got all their justifications down and it's just it's a letdown when you hold somebody to a standard I started out disappointed then it turns into anger and I was just like Whatever man Somebody Now it's just like, whatever, man. Somebody can **** as far as I'm concerned. No one needs to get there.

As soon as I got caught ****, like, that ain't where we at, man. Now we playing. Now we playing. Y'all antics is turning into people playing with me. Listen, the fans that wanted to hear this, they got to hear it. We got some resolution. They got some resolution. I'm still trying to be the glass half full guy here.

And who knows how people feel five and ten years from now. Maybe Slaughterhouse comes back in 20 years. I ain't no your own y'all shit. That changes the conversation. That was the whole fight. That's why I'm mad at Crook. Because that was the nigga.

Man, don't get me me started I'm trying to be you know what I mean that changes shit yeah cause now in this climate y'all on y'all own shit y'all could've really went and got it back

and there's a great album in the tuck somewhere oh y'all got that one too? that nobody still know why it didn't come out still

I still don't know why it came out. I was there. And then let's not act like we've been around for 20, 25 years. Like we need somebody to be the fucking liaison between us and the fucking label. Nigga, you crazy? F***ing shit. Right. Yeah, like he was our connect.

They acting like he was our connect to the labels or something. Like, nigga, we can go talk to anybody at any label, bro. We hadn't even went and spoke to anybody. What if we just decided we wanted to go talk to everybody and weigh one thing against the other and get a bidding war started? Or just like you said, maybe think about the possibility of just funding it ourselves. I mean, in this day and age, you barely need a label. You know what I mean? If you got some money.

Yeah. If you don't need an advance. Right. Right? Then you could do the shit yourself. If I need an advance, I'm not taking one. No, I'm just saying. I needed an advance when it went on

that rage and the machine album came out empire wouldn't give me give it to me they would not give me that advance and if they did it wasn't in advance it was my shit no i'm not no you're not tying me up like that you're not tying me up like that and again i'm not teaching nobody else how to do they shit everybody gotta do they business and conduct it the way they see fit and nobody should judge anybody for it don't nobody know shit that's what they did

that's what they did that's what I got I'ma listen to that album stay away from me words you can't be like this man nah I just we can't reverse you're man no i just i know they can't reverse no no no no no no listen they said they protecting their energy and i agree with that we all should protect our energy stay away from maul stay away from me with that energy joelle crook just stay away from me with

that energy don't come nowhere near me but the energy of what just being hurt could feel like you chose a side that you shouldn't have chosen i don't give a fuck however they justify the energy i don't care i don't want it around me you know i mean like this that's one of the one of the points where you look at yourself, you hold yourself accountable for whatever you, whatever role you may have played. And, you know, based on whatever you stand in or whatever you believe in, like if it's, if you one of those kinds of people like myself who need to be able to sleep at night, I sleep just fine.

I know that I've never done anything to not just them two niggas, but anybody. All of these people choosing up and you know i mean like and and feeding like this whole negative narrative me being i'm being drugged into narratives and shit like that and i gotta constantly always give people to grow i grew up like that always having to like be the bigger man with me and my big brother and shit like that like it always oh that's just greg you know I mean? Like you supposed to patch that up. You supposed to go talk to Joe. You supposed,

you the leader, you supposed to go, you know what I mean? And then, you know, like if I can't do that, if I can't fix something, there's some niggas broke.

Cause they pulled the trigger on a decision and made it premeditated. Nothing I can do about it. Nah, I'm. But is that something that is that, is that part of why it's hurtful, too? Because niggas that you cared about felt like they needed to protect their energy

by distancing themselves from you and keeping something secret? Yeah, I don't know if it was... Because maybe we looking at the secret wrong or them concealing the album. We looking at it like, oh, that's some slimy shit y'all niggas did. But maybe they just view it different. I'm just trying to be open to all the perspectives, oh, that's some slimy shit y'all niggas did. But maybe they just view it different.

I'm just trying to be open to all the perspectives. Hey, that's cool. Just stay away from me with that energy. And I'm pretty sure whatever energy that I'm on, it's a clash with what they on. So maybe it's best that we not be around each other. You know what I mean? Because it was a moment where it was like I was hurt and niggas was arrogant

about this shit. Like if you, if your intention wasn't to hurt nobody, then what the fuck you so arrogant about? Like if I did something and the receiver receives it

in a way that I didn't intend them to and that's my man, I would call that person. And be like, yo, I didn't mean that. I didn't mean that like that. You know what I'm saying?

These motherfuckers is acting like they mad at us for getting mad. It's like, my nigga, who is you playing with? Why you playing with me?

You know what I mean? Like, if you mad at Joe, play with Joe. Don't fucking play with me because I don't play with nobody. I know. I know. I mean like if you mad at Joe play with Joe don't fucking play with me cause I don't play with nobody I know I know I know

that bitch called me me me I saw it they probably have no idea what we talking about but it's fine I saw it

of course they don't have no idea what you're talking about the fucking you spy cat Jesus Mary nah you got it you got it we move on Of course they don't have no idea what you're talking about. The fucking... Jesus, man. No, you edit that out. We move on. We got any more music? I don't think we have more music, bro.

I don't think so. I don't think so. How's everything with you, Royce? Otherwise? Fucking terrible. No, I'm just playing. It's cool. Everything's cool, man.

I was kind of looking forward to doing this, honestly. I'm sure. Because just creatively. Creatively, I don't know exactly what I want to do yet. I don't know what I want to say. I'm like super distracted by just the world. The way that the world is. Just observing things.

Try to be real careful with what I say musically because I'm still self-editing my words in general. Just what I should speak to, what I should chill on. You know what I mean? I'm learning as I go. This shit is like another curveball because Slaughterhouse is the easiest thing for me to do. Just having taken part in building a couple different brands. this shit is like another curveball because slaughterhouse is like the easiest thing for me to do. Like just have, haven't built, taking part in building a couple of different brands,

like prime reintroducing myself to people once I got sober and then building slaughterhouse with them at my lowest. And then overcoming every odd and obstacle that you can think of, like debunking every single fucking anecdotal phrase that they threw at it. You can't do this. Oh, y'all been around the block. That's the reason why it'll always be grace for them niggas. It'll always be grace for them niggas. Because we built something together.

But man, we all got limits. You know what I mean? Like if you know that you are choosing the path, be careful. Be respectful. You know what I mean? Because I'm just repeating niggas' words. Niggas will say, yo, don't play with me. Well, don't play with me.

Who the fuck? I ain't signed up to play when I agree to play. That's what it is people must be thinking I play with them a lot I don't be thinking I'm playing with people I don't like

I don't like that shit cause I'm not good at it I know yeah I ain't good at that shit see I like to play I ain't good at that shit I'm not

you ain't talking yeah yeah yeah I can't turn on I can't turn on like on and off right but that's why that shit made me mad when you can't do it to like niggas yeah, yeah. I can't turn on, I can't turn on like. On and off, right? But that's why this shit made me mad.

When you can't do it to like niggas that you fuck without, I wouldn't do that to y'all. Anytime I ever tried to like pre-plan something and like shoot for something for some sort of financial gain,

that never has worked for me. Anything I've ever chased in my life has ran from me. From relationship, money, anything that you can think of me too yo i must live in the center of my truth like my name is all my name is the only thing i've ever had outside

a slaughterhouse slaughterhouse is the first thing that i owned in this business other than that the most important thing to me was always my name my name is my name it's very very important that you speak it a certain way and i and i be in control of how you speak that and that's i stay in control of that by doing right by you no matter who you are so when you wrong me and purposely wrong me after knowing me for a long time and you rule out the possibility of something going really, really wrong, it's offensive. I understand. You know what I'm saying? And it's always chill, chill, chill, chill.

Well, you fucking chill, nigga. Let's all chill. That's what I'm saying. We ain't all being chill right now. You know what I'm saying? That's what I be telling y'all. I'm telling y'all. It ain't true.

It is. You know, because everything is like, oh, Roy's getting emotional. You got'all. I'm telling y'all. It ain't true. It's me. It is. You know, because everything is like, you know, like, oh, Roy's getting emotional. You got that right. I'm emotional. I'm emotional about everything. I'm emotionally invested in a lot of things. So you're not going to fucking do the Jedi mind trick on me. I'm very emotional about my music, my children, my friends.

Because, you know, I go through the same thing when I defend Marshall. I can't defend him because he a white boy. I can't defend this nigga because he famous. You know what I mean? It ain't never a problem when I'm defending them. Where's the problem at then? Like, we can Google how many times I done called this nigga one of the greatest rappers I've ever heard. Niggas is like, who are you talking about?

Like, I've been waving the biggest fucking crooked flag so like to say shit like yo royce and joe have always treated us like less than that was nasty too like nigga what that was disgusting that was that this is some i don't even know if i know how to do that how do i how can i treat a nigga who rap like you like less than oh i know how to do it but i ain't do that to y'all stop playing i'm not playing i do know how to do that but i ain't do that to them do that you was on love and hip-hop and you asked for more bread no i did not oh oh you having fun i trying to I'm trying to I'm trying to lighten the mood

I didn't I didn't do none of that But the mood is fine The mood is fine The mood is great man You know how you treat Somebody less than You pay them less

Or you talk to them You could talk to a nigga Fucked up Even though You pay them the same Everybody don't receive Well first of all We

We have never been the ones paying them. So there's never been a time where they haven't been, where everything hasn't been equal, regardless of where the fans place us. That's all just barbershop talk. That's here nor there. That's fairy dust. You know what I'm saying? Like, they can say, yo, Joe's the biggest one.

You know what I mean? That's subjective, bro. That's energy. That's numbers. That's a lot of things that you can say yo joe the biggest one you know that's subjective bro that's energy that's numbers that's a lot of things that you can in my check the same so yeah you we all being paid the same that's the brass test tax facts you know i mean like from there you can use all kind of semantics you want oh no you didn't support me on my projects you didn't support me man let's pull up some track lists name a time send me show me a screenshot of an email where you sent me something and i didn't rap on it please name a time name a time where i built something outside of the paradigm of slaughterhouse where i didn't include niggas there never was a

time where I seemed distant from the group and it was times where me and him wasn't speaking because I had issues about shit you know I'm saying so that happens we can get past things you know but say what you want about him he got his ways he owns those ways if he stab you it's gonna be from the front right in your face if he goes public and he speaks he's gonna speak for him he's not gonna speak for me he left the group plenty of times but he left the group he didn't take it upon himself to tell the world that the group is over without talking to the group. That's some hoe ass shit to do. If he did that, then it would be World War V.

And the fans would be behind niggas because he easy to go against. These niggas is playing the victim now and it's hard to believe that they would just lie like that. So it just make us look like liars. To me, I take that as disrespect that's like literally like going and spraying up some shit a shed with two with just me and him sitting in it and you intend to hit him but I'm getting grazed with all kind of bullets and you just like do you ain't I know you know I'm saying like did you die we were shooting for him you may have caught a

couple but don't take it so personal. Don't be emotional about it. Motherfucker, you just shot in this direction. As far as I'm concerned, y'all can die for that. You know what I'm saying? Like, that's how somebody else would probably receive that. You know what I mean? Like, I feel like the respect just should always be reciprocal.

That's what it's always been. You get it, you give it. You cross the line and then you still command it. How your man going to tell him suck his dick? It's like, y'all sound crazy. Y'all sound crazy. You know how far past that point we are, bro? No, dude. That shit was eight moves ago.

We should have been worried about how we speaking to each other. These niggas are doing a whole rollout we like answering the phone and telling niggas no don't worry about it ain't no beef we at that point so what you talking to me about a nigga telling the nigga suck his dick on live stream you hopped your ass on the live stream nobody invite you on a live stream you know how many opportunities people had to call me and talk about shit now all of a sudden me and him speaking on live stream everybody come butting in and it's like bro the only reason why it's enhanced this is because of the way they're moving and they acting like they don't care about it escalating well i don't gotta fucking care about it escalating no we enhanced it i ain't no no we the fuck we didn't Our response dude What response?

Saying we was hurt Just saying anything Anything enhanced it Just saying anything Y'all two responding In any way Enhanced it And that's what I've been

He's right We've been trying to tell Joe Not to say a word about it It's a troll up Exactly It's a troll up You talking to The person who probably wrote

Half the book on trolling So I saw the play and I'm telling them this is the play well shit if it's a play let it be a play say it's a play don't act like you're doing something fucking admirable at our expense you know like oh you said you wasn't doing

the three man group we took that as you didn't think we was big enough what why up it's like bro don't drag me into goofy shit We took that as you didn't think we was big enough. What? Why? It's like, bro, don't drag me into goofy shit, bro. You implying that I speak that way. You know I don't talk like that.

You know I don't look at the shit like that. Why would I look at that like that? Yeah. You think it's some star power that Joe bring to the group that we look for to make music? How have we utilized that, Joe? By making me walk to the front of the Summer Jam stage

and say, fuck all you niggas. The Summer Jam stage? Yeah, I'll say, yo, I got this good idea yo yo one of us should go to the stage before the show starts

and say fuck fuck all anybody on this show we about to tear this shit up that'll get really get the crowd's attention who you think should do that I'll do it guys

alright cool where that footage at on YouTube it's out nah nah I ain't talking about that I'm talking about Yeah, I'll do it, guys. All right, cool. Where that footage at? On YouTube. It's out. No, no, I ain't talking about that. I'm talking about Walu footage. Where that footage? Oh, I don't know.

You know where it's at, Corey? I don't know where that footage is. You don't remember the footage? I know the footage. I don't know where that footage, the behind-the-scenes footage of us and all the producers and the behind-the-scenes footage. Parks, why didn't we release that footage? behind the scenes footage of us and all the producers and the behind the scenes footage parks why why didn't we release that footage i don't know it was a whole documentary of a month plus of recording every single day damn near every hour of every day a glass house you can't release that footage why not we can't tell him why not

yes we can because crooked didn't want us to release the footage because who the fuck cares why he didn't want us to release the footage so that's why we didn't release the footage it's just that simple you know what i'm saying i didn't know that i wanted it to be out if i had it my way you know if i if i felt like it was fair for me to take it upon myself and just do some shit and speak my truth i could just release the footage but i didn't because i love crooked and i have integrity whatever we're gonna get from that whatever's gonna come from the fans seeing what's perceived from me as my truth it's not what it's going to do to our relationship. You know?

Yeah. Yeah, but that's no fun in hip hop. Man, fuck that. I'm talking about me and Crook's relationship. Mm-hmm. Right? Mm-hmm. So I don't even know nobody who would do that to Crook.

Everybody who love Crook, that's like one of the first things they say, integrity. Crook, we can would do that to Crook everybody who love Crook that's like one of the first things they say integrity Crook we can't do that to Crook we ain't do nothing like that to Crook you know and that's some shit where it's like

make sure Joe don't get the footage cause he'll fucking he'll leak that shit you know what I'm saying and then this nigga turns this nigga turns around and does the same shit

that he's been complaining about yo he complained about Joe knew he was out for a long time And does the same shit that he's been complaining about. Yo, he complained about, Joe knew he was out for a long time and he didn't tell us. Why didn't you tell us? And it was a legitimate question. But it's like, bro, you turned around and you filmed four webisodes,

four videos, and an entire fucking album and didn't answer your phone while you were doing it and blindsided us. Is that not the same thing? Well, the album's in your phone, right? That's fair to say. No, no, no. I asked a question.

I want Ice and Ish to answer it. Is that not the same thing? I don't understand the context. You said that y'all had behind-the-scenes footage when y'all were shooting. No, no, we off that part. I'm talking about, now we talking about Crooked and Joel.

What about them? They went and recorded a whole album, four episodes, four videos, all while not answering their phone while they're doing it. And then they released it without telling us. And they announced to the world during this rollout that the slaughterhouse is over with and we're just telling our truth and I was comparing that to when he was complaining about Joe

and saying Joe there was a long period of time where Joe knew he was out but just didn't tell us I think you may have said it and he asked you like if you knew you were out why didn't you tell us so we wouldn't have had our hopes up and been making plans

and I felt like that was a legitimate question that is he asked you that when y'all did the pull up together he actually said he thinks that's the reason why you didn't pull out

put it out because he felt like he had you with that question when you turned around and you did the same thing to me nigga gotcha like this is not me he had you with that question. When you turned around and you did the same thing to me, nigga. Gotcha.

Like, this is not me taking Joe's side. This is like, this is me looking at, nigga, this is me you doing this to. What I really think that, and again, I don't know them, so I feel funny, but what I really think was that they were shooting at Joe. Like you said, your analogy of being in the shed, I think they were shooting at Joe. And you just so happened to be the collateral damage that came along with shooting at Joe, like on an innocent bystander tip.

Yeah, you know who that is? You know who the type of niggas that shit like that happen to? Niggas who niggas don't respect. I pull up and somebody's standing next to somebody I respect. I'll see that nigga another time. Gotcha. Gotcha. And that's not how it should be.

That's how it better be. You know what I'm saying? That's a good one. I ain't never asked nobody for no motherfucking respect. I'm not about to fucking ask, can you please show me some fucking, can you give us a pass today? Motherfucker, you let a round go, and you're going to have a problem. Makes sense. That's how I've always been.

That's how I am with Cricket. That's how I am with everybody. Cricket and Joel ain't never came to Detroit, never thought about having a problem. We know you hired people so Joe can be straight in the titty bar. Well, nigga, I didn't hire people and made sure you were straight in the titty bar. So what? Who cares? What we talking about, though?

What are you doing? Like, is this just justification for what you're doing? Because even if i did turn the deal down or i did say you know what i don't want to do that because joe got the star power even if i took that position i would be well within my right to and you still file for handling it like you're handling it you win i agree it ain't really much to say after that and I take the same L as you still because the album is garbage it ain't gonna be

none of the numbers that you're looking for and you just threw us all under the bus and we all take the same L congratulations well I'm sorry to anyone I've heard out there that's what I got I don't even know how to sound I've heard out there. That's what I got.

I don't even know how to sound. I don't even know how to make it. No, for real, I am. I am. I'm sorry to anybody I heard out there. I want everybody to be well, be happy, love and light. Everyone be great. There. No, that's unfortunate. Because even

like... It's part of life, man. No, it's not. That's not true. no that's unfortunate because even like the point of life man no it's not that's not true that's part of music business life that's not it because they not in the music business they was friends

they had a personal relationship you hear him talking it don't sound like business true that nigga's talking from a personal level like yo I'm a grown man

from the age I was 12, 13 Years old My reputation And my name Was something that I earned So don't play with it Because niggas back home

That really go They don't play with my name So I'm not gonna let Y'all niggas play with my name And that's what he's saying You get what I'm saying I heard him So

It ain't the music business I'm saying the music business Oh no no It's a bunch of fuck shit I agree But it is the music business And I no no it's a bunch of fuck shit I agree but it is the music business and I do think that that's where

Royce and I go wrong when when we try to when we humanize when we humanize and be like

damn we was hurt damn how could you do that this is how I feel about that like that's that's therapy yeah and I think

oh man I lost train of thought bro listen all of this shit has been a curveball for me because this ain't the first run-in i've had with quote-unquote friends like my name has just been associated with just this type of shit the difference with the lupe shit i respect lupe because he took a position And he stood on it And I still disagree With that position But at least he like Fuck you about it

Whatever nigga I ain't speaking to you no more And I feel like he was wrong And I feel like it was I played a part in it Some of the things I did was wrong He ain't owning none of his shit And he ain't trying to own

None of his shit Bro I can respect that I can move on from that fine But to like make it out Make everything everybody else's fault And to be the victim I can't I can't

I can't do that Not from a real one Nope nope nope And I don't want no relationship That's only there for What they could gain from the relationship. It never was that before. You know?

How do you know? What you mean? How do you know it wasn't that before? That's the fucked up part about these kind of situations, right? Is it makes you think about the entirety of your relationship, professional or otherwise? When it ends like this, listen, I'm sitting here trying to be cool. But I could paint a picture real vivid. But when it ends like this,

like you got to question what came before it. You got to look at it through a different scope. If the position is, because I know they're going to flame me online because they don't like me to fucking express myself at all. If the position that's being position is, because I know they're going to flame me online because they don't like me to fucking express myself at all. If the position that's being taken is we're relinquishing our rights to slaughterhouse, can we put that on paper? Can we put you John Hancock with that, big dog? And then I'll believe

that this wasn't for monetary gain. Sign over your rights. Sign over your rights to the group. Do that. Do that for me. And then I'll believe that this is how you truly felt. You do that.

You finish speaking your truth. You get this off. You bask in whatever glory that's coming from it, you know, and whatever you... And I hope you've been able to feed your family off of it

because, nigga, I'll risk our friendship for you to feed your family off of it Because nigga I'll risk our friendship For you to feed your family I don't want you to put our friendship In front of you feeding your family And that's just based off of me loving you You know what I mean So if I gotta take that L for you to feed your family

I'll take that L But yeah Make that official on paper though Cause we can come behind you and clean all this up This is fixable just not with you niggas it could be fixed it just can't be fixed with y'all and as bad as y'all want to be away from us we want you niggas away from us this is bad so sign off on that and i guarantee you that nobody will miss you i'm'm going to make sure of it

with the art. I'm going to show you the right way to do what you were trying to do. And I'll just take that position. We're going to wait until some time passes and just reassess later

and see where everything... I know. I know, man. I know. I know. What can you do? It's over. Fuck it. Sorry for the part I know. I know, man. I know. I know. What can you do? It's over. Fuck it.

Sorry for the part I played. My bad. That was a go. Huh? That was deep. What, with words? Yeah, no. It is.

I don't like hearing words like this, but. Me either. Like what? We here. Like what? Like this. I'm talking exactly how I would be talking if these niggas were sitting here that's really i'm really what i would have liked to to have said especially the moments where you

know niggas be fucking moving the goalposts around and acting a little bit tough and shit it's like what nigga when the fuck did we start acting tough toward each other and shit? What about a rocket launcher? Yeah. What the fuck? What are we doing? Yeah. The only thing Royce got on me is that rocket launcher. What are you talking about?

First of all, I don't got nothing on you, nigga. Second of all. What are we talking about? I thought we was like celebrating and encouraging the brotherhood. You can't make me your op. We're going to put an ad right here. Anybody out there driving needs some car insurance. Geico.

Geico is the way to go. This year only 12. Joe, I just got this Casper mattress. It's so comfortable. Oh, my God. Have you been sleeping? We got to put an ad. Why you ask me to come out here? Oh, man.

Ian said, OK, Royce, you're going to behave yourself, right? I'm like, nigga, I always behave myself. Joe, you got to worry about it. And then I come here fooling. He said, Joe said it. He said he was like i'm gonna be calm i don't we hope voice will stay calm because they just keep doing shit man i just look on my phone for two seconds first thing i say this nigga crooked talking about art over ig live art yo y'all can't tell me I'm immature

because there was a time where I would hit all these shits out of the park. I would hit these fastballs right out of here, man. I'm doing good. Yo, when God shows you who people are, you should just be thankful that he does it quick and fast. I'm not mad at anybody for being numb. I feel like I'm a broken record now

because I keep saying it but if this is what Crook is doing and every time I look at the phone and there's some shit being said with the little slide hey man that's what it is I'd rather you do it there than us being in the studio and me never know that you felt like that and you had all this hidden shit

I don't want those relationships I'd rather you let me know why I'm at a million dollars than let me know why I'm at a million dollars than let me know when I'm at 100 million. You know what I'm saying? Because I could cut you off at that level. I could cut you off at the million-dollar level. I don't want you up there with me, and now you getting money with me.

You know what I'm saying? Stay down here. You good down here. I'm going to let you go at the million-dollar level, and when I get to 100 million, you might still be down there. So I'd rather know now than later. All that sounds good too. Yeah.

Who else put some music out? That's crazy. I really don't know the music. No, it's fine. We on to Ryan Coogler. It's fine. We on to Ryan Coogler. Yeah.

Ryan Coogler, director of Black Panther, went to a Bank of America. Yeah, and Creed. Sir, can we see your hands? Sir, you look familiar. Can you get in the back of the car, please, sir? Nah, this is disgusting. And the lady was black, too?

Everybody. The bank teller was black. Oh, that's that broad. The bank teller is who called me. The bank teller was black. Oh, that's that bro. Who the bank teller is, who called me the bank teller. She the one who called the police. He gave me a letter. The cop who arrested or handcuffed Ryan Coogler was black. Uh-huh.

On his way out. I think that was the bank manager that said, good job, fellas. I don't know if that was the bank teller. Look how he's standing, man. That's how rich niggas stand yeah he don't even he's surprised he has no idea he looked like he was in a a movie like yo dog when you just whipped out first yo dog we've seen white people on tv punching the cops that's one of our that's one of our prized possessions right there. Word. Getting treated like that.

He's like, you protect him at all costs. And you got him cuffed like he's a fucking criminal. The bad part with this, fam, first of all, you asked for my ID once we get outside. Can I just tell the people what happened? Man, fuck that.

I'm here. I fucked everything up. No, no, no. You got to get him. You got to reel him back in. Ryan Coogler goes in the bank. He's trying to withdraw $12,000. Bank of America.

He goes in the Bank of America. He's trying to withdraw $12,000. He hands the bank teller the withdrawal slip. And wrote a note on the back of the withdrawal slip. Wrote a note on the back of the slip

along with his identification. And the note said, yo, I need 12 grand. He had his ID. He had his ATM card. He wrote a letter on the back of the withdrawal slip stating, ma'am, I'm trying to withdraw $12,000 out of my account. However,

please don't use the money counter up front to count the money. Count the money behind the scenes so that somebody doesn't see how much money I'm drawing. So I could be discreet. Right. And he wrote the word, I'm trying to be discreet on the letter. I don't want people knowing I'm walking around with 12 grand in my pocket. Not just that.

You in Atlanta, they line the niggas up every day in Atlanta. So you don't know who the fuck is in the bank that sees you put $12,000 cash in your pocket and walk outside and tear your fucking head off for $12,000. That's what he said. Cool. That's true, man. That's what he said. He said you don't want to get lined up.

He asked three times, is everything okay? And they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're good. We got you. Don't worry about it. We got you. Cop comes from the back of him that he doesn't see. Cop in the front of him pointing at him. The first thing that the cop does is whip out, and that's a problem.

Absolutely. And that's how they view us. Like, we're always menacing and threatening. The first thing the cop does, his first reaction is to whip out. Well, the bright side to this is, because I feel like I'm the only one who's not looking at the cup like it's half full. So let me just have that moment. True. Black police officers don't kill people.

So he was all right. Good point. Yeah, we don't have that. We don't have that problem. Thank the Lord Jesus, Allah, Jehovah. If it wasn't two white cops, they probably would have came in there with rifles. Literally. Get on the floor!

Lay on the ground! I'm not sure how long the bank teller has been working there. I'm not trying to shoot any bail. I forgot how long they said it, but none of it matters. But she also talked to the manager, so it wasn't just her.

Exactly, my point. None of that matters. Because now there's a level of escalation where if you don't feel comfortable with the $12,000 withdrawal, you go to the bank manager. You go to the branch manager. When you get to the teller, you got to put your card in, put your PIN number in to confirm your identity. Then you give them the withdrawal slip. So if he does all this, it's my account. We've gotten to that point already.

Banks have mad measures. Come on, dog. Your signature. They got your signature on the screen. Correct. They can match the signature. I've been being sloppy on a check sometime and scribble my name real quick. My signature don't match up.

They won't pay my guys. Shit like that. Like, dog, they got mad shit in place can i see your id match your signature with the signature card they got on file all of those measures could have been taken now the cops i'm tight because they walked them outside they could have they could have dealt with that in the bank they walk them outside he tells the cop fam black man a black man that's going to be a good day for you. I'm trying to talk to you. You ignoring me. Take my badge off my side. Google me. That's some arrogant shit, too. No, it's not. I like it. You clearly missing some information. Fam,

Google my name and let me the fuck go. Sit him in the car With his glasses on His scully on And a mask In the back of the car Nigga looked like He was fucking Hyperventilating back there Bitch when they opened the door

I'm sure he was And detained his staff His nanny Everybody Detained everybody If he was a bank robber Would he have waited In there that long?

Would he have gave him his ID? If he was a bank robber He wouldn't have asked For 12 grand. Right. I mean, I heard some stories. No, I heard some stories. Jokers get away with it.

They just be like, yeah, I robbed like 50 banks. I'm like, damn, how much would you give for that? I mean, sometimes seven, four, 400. Yeah, that's true. Seven, 75. But the cops need to be reprimanded. That's because that's probably just what they could get in the time that they asked for that. Like, that was the feeling? It's not threatening. It's a certain amount of just what they could get in the time that they asked for that. Like, that was the ceiling?

It's not threatening. It's a certain amount of money that they keep in the drawer, right? Yeah, yeah. And when you go ask for $2,500, a nigga not going to do no research. You go ask for $10,000, $12,000, $15,000, now manager approval,

shit like that might have to take place. When I was real broke and I used to go in there and try to get a big withdrawal like $10,000, it used to be like when three cop cars come.

They pull a hole. They put a manager. His boss come out. Because they got to report that. Anything over. Nine, nine, nine, nine. They got to report it. Check your balances on that shit.

I don't even like the way I act when I got. If I got like 10 grand on me, that's why I'd never carry money. Hold on. I want to hear this. What happened? Go ahead. It's probably only been a couple times where I had like 10 gram I don't like I how you like I don't know it's just like like I want to go to

strip club you like me you wanna buy something yeah when I get a bunch of cash on me in my character I'm not like a cash guy. Me neither. I am. No, I mean. I was a car guy. Now I'm like a DoorDash app guy. I don't want to see it. I don't mess with cash, bro. I get cash. I treat it like it's going to expire. Yeah.

You gave up the car? Hmm? Oh, car, did you say? Yeah, I said car. Oh, got it. Got it. Yeah. But in the wake of George Floyd, that shit was just the other day, yo.

That shit happened over a counterfeit $20 bill, allegedly. Right. This could have went really wrong had he made different moves. He saw the gun and immediately froze up. Fam, if he would have made some other moves, this goes extremely, extremely, extremely wrong for a black young Greek. Yeah. They had to do their job in their defense, but it was the way that they did it. They could have took him in the manager office and said, yo, let me see your ID. Match your signatures up. They had to do their job in their defense, but it was the way that they did it. They could have took him in the manager office and said, yo, let me see your ID, match your

signatures up, blah, blah, blah, blah. They had to walk him outside. Once they got him handcuffed, you could talk to him right then and there. You ain't got to move him nowhere. Right there. Ultimately, fire the lady. That's what happened. And the manager.

The cop, too. All of them. Everybody handled this. All of them. Everybody handled this. He gave the ID. I don't even know. I'm lost.

The cops waited to get outside and said, yo, you got ID on you? He said, yo, I have everything on me. How long was this ordeal? I don't know. Because this is taxpayer money being worked that is punished. This is bad. How much it cost for those vehicles right there? Some crime being done right now.

Oh, Ryan Coogler is good. I'm super sorry he had to experience this, especially at a bank. I'm super sorry that y'all continue to bank at Bank of America even after that doc came out that showed y'all what they was doing with the accounts and what the workers was doing. It's nasty. I already see that, doc. What happened? Bank of America, too?

It was a Wells Fargo doc. Bank of America, too? Well, they do this shit. Bank of America is nasty. All right, see that, Doc. What happened? Bank of America, too? Oh, it was a Wells Fargo doc. Bank of America, too. What'd they do to shit? Bank of America's nasty. You said, what did they do? Yeah. They were incentivizing their workers to- Open up multiple accounts for every person.

Yeah. Oh. Just mad accounts. And they held them to a quarter. I don't know if Joe's talking about Bank of America, but the one I know, Wells Fargo. So they would make you open a certain amount of accounts every month. You would risk losing your job. Wow.

So a lady broke it down like, yo, in this town, we only got 12,000 people in the whole town. How the fuck we going to keep opening up? We got 35,000 accounts. 10 accounts a month. What are they doing with the additional accounts? Transferring money over? So they will open up a money market account,

a checking account, another checking account, a savings account, a this account. Motherfuckers was calling their family members like, yo, I need you to use it. Because the bank gets a credit.

The bank gets credit for when these accounts open. You take these, and you take these numbers to your fucking board and it looks like business is booming. And now it looks like

y'all cracking up and the stock price going up. Mm-hmm. That's crazy. There was a, speaking of stock, and the bank, to your fucking board and it looks like business is booming. And the stock price going up. That's crazy. There was a, speaking of stock shit, in the bank jigs, there was a Jon Stewart episode about the stock market.

They were saying how a savings account has become so valueless on purpose to drive more people to go invest in stocks and essentially gamble with their money.

I'll send you the episode. You'll probably be interested. That makes sense. Because you're not making no money putting your money up there. Savings accounts used to be actually pay interest.

2, 3%. Now you getting.005%, some dumb shit. So it don't even behoove you to put your money in a savings account no more because you ain't making no interest on it.

Listen, I don't care about any of that. Like the real bank scam was HSBC. Like all of this little Wells Fargo, Bank of America shit. Come on. What that doc said?

Tell us. What HSBC? Yeah. They had all the biggest criminals in the world. Who was HSBC? Beneficial Household Merge right?

Yeah that's HSBC. They had the real scam. They was in bed with them niggas. And yes I saw that on the doc. We know. We yes, I saw that on the doc. Oh, we know. We know.

We know it was a doc. It's fine. Yo, y'all keeping up with Tommy and Power? It's over, right? Oh, yeah. It's over, right? I'm still watching. Y'all still on it?

Yeah, of course. I'm watching for Gloria, to be honest with you. That's it. This nigga. I'm just, you want me to lie? That's it. I don't know nothing about Gloria. It's the bartender.

The one that owned the bar. The fine one. Oh, the one that Tommy beat? Yeah. And then the boyfriend knows that Tommy beat. Yeah. And Tommy did the honorable thing and let her go. Like, yo, I can't let this get in front of the money.

I'm out. Also, have y'all been watching Bel-Air? Hell yeah. I'm caught up. I'm not caught up, but I will be caught up. I just say, I just think this show needs more light. We love to rush to the bullshit. We, as in you.

Myself included. Myself included. I'm trying to be better, man. Oh, get out of here. Yeah. It's all about growth, man. We're a work in progress. Oh, my God. I got all the little one lines about growth, man. We're a work in progress. Oh, my God.

I got all the little one lines. I read them all. I'm sharing my truth. When Joe starts sharing his truth, yo. I've been trying to keep that from happening for a long time. This is going to be up for you nasty, suck-ass niggas, yo. You good? That's my truth.

Yo, you niggas are suckers. But no, man. With Bel Air, this show is really tackling everything that's going on while keeping a black family like looking in a positive light. And I just don't see enough emphasis being put. They probably need to move that to off of Peacock. I know they want to keep it on Peacock to get people to subscribe there, but it should be on NBC proper. Yeah, they can't.

Why? You got to put some more respect on Peacock too. No, I love Peacock. I'm just saying that I'm not sure a lot of people are rushing to it because it's new. I don't think a lot of people know because I don't even agree with that

it has to be moved off Peacock. Now that I think about it because people rush to Netflix when enough people are talking about a show. It has to be moved off Peacock. Now that I think about it, because people rush to Netflix when enough people are talking about a show. People rush to Hulu. People rush into these apps if enough people are talking about it. True, but most of those apps and brands

have been established. Peacock is brand new. We watch Godfather Harlem on Epic. That's true. That's true. But I don't know if enough people talk about that either. There's been a lot of talk about Godfather of Harlem.

And when S.T.A.R.S. wasn't S.T.A.R.S., niggas ran to power and subscribed to power. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, power did that. So I like the way that they show the strong black male in this household too. Yeah, it's a great show. This shit is dope. This is tackling things that, even the current episode with hillary being tricked into doing some sexual shit and realizing oh shit it worked and now wait a minute i might like that like there are girls

that's going through that like it's just it's so much real shit that's happening i just think more people y'all i'm a bel-air fucking advertisement at this point i want to tell everybody to watch the show it's a good show it It's dope. Very good show. That's kind of all I had about it. I wish more people got behind it. And Peacock is a dope act. I like how they put the Rotten Tomatoes ratings

right there so you can kind of tell if something's good or not. At least you have some frame of reference. Peacock, y'all ain't gonna cut the check, man. That's facts.

Y'all too dope for me to free ads at this point. That's why I'm silent. Even the interface is hard, yo. What happened with just silent. Even the interface is hard, yo. Even the interface is hard. Some of them other ones, you got all the content there, but the interface sucks. Peacock, I go in right now.

You want to continue watching? Cut the check. Yeah. No more advertisement, man. But yeah, go watch Bel Air. I've only said every week that I'm a huge fan of Peacock, and that's not because I'm trying to get them to cut the check, but they just do a good job.

They do. Yeah, they do. And you can, where else can you watch American Greed 15 seasons in a row? And 30 million subscribers. It ain't a people problem.

They getting them over there fast. They ain't been around and it ain't been two years. No, it hasn't. Has it been a year? It's probably been about a year. Maybe about a year. I watched the Summer Olympics there. That's when I subscribed. I want to see, yeah. You watched the it been a year? It's probably been about a year. Maybe about a year. I think I watched the Summer Olympics there.

That's when I subscribed. I want to see, yeah. You watched the Olympics? Last year, yeah. Peacock had the Olympics. To watch basketball, yeah. Good point. Okay.

You watched the fucking Apple Genius Bar debuts, right? Yeah. And we can't watch the USA basketball team play? Hey, speaking of basketball, you was waiting on that Philly Nets game. Yeah. Yeah, what happened? Who won? I think they said the Nets won.

Oh, you think? No, the Nets won. They didn't win. They didn't win. When I looked at it, it was like a 20, 30-point game, so I was like maybe, you know. React. Give us your opinion. They ended that way, too.

Rocket launcher and that bitch. Him and Kyrie. Yo, put another dollar in the jar, man. Yo, I'm going to put two in there. Yeah. I think you owe one, too. Kyrie was treating y'all like bitches. I'm good.

Yeah, I paid a fine. Word. I never seen Kyle play defense like that. He went in with a mission. I know. And with James Harden went in with? The lights on him. A hangover.

Oh, yeah. Something like that. He saw all his friends right there in the front row and he couldn't wait to get to the club. Once Lil Baby and Travis Scott was at the game,

James Harden was out of here. Yeah. I should have bet on this game. Yeah, he has. If Lil Baby is around, James Harden ain't playing no fucking basketball. Lil Baby, Meek,

and Travis Scott there, we going to the club. We outside. Nigga was checking his texts on the bench. No, this was... I ain't worried, though. I mean, that was an ass whooping.

Let's be clear. I'm really... I'm not worried. You should be worried. You can sit here and play all that tough shit. I'm not playing tough guy shit. As a Philly fan, you're not worried? No.

If this was a little bit later on, yeah. I'm not worried right now. I'm not. Are you going to tell us why you're not worried? No. Can you give a take? I'm just not worried because it's one fucking game. They've been playing great.

This was one game. We got to see this. We got to see when we get to the playoffs, let's see what happens. It's not the game that should have you worried. It's Kevin Durant's attitude and post-game interviews. All of that. Everything Kevin Durant is saying is saying, you should be worried.

He's saying, oh, no, we mopped them up. They can't run. He's saying, yo, they're not fast. Oh, we figured if we blow them out, then it would be tough for them to boo at Ben Simmons. So that's what we did. That's what he did. Yeah, but he could do that in a seven-game series. I got to see that. My nigga, I have to see that. So that's what we did That's what he did Fucking It worked

But he could do that In a seven game series I gotta see that My nigga I have to see that You've seen that I have not seen that Against this team

In a seven game series It's not an ordinary Regular season game Both of these niggas Was worked up They made the Biggest midseason trade They've been talking shit

Against each other In practice Niggas know about that And the Nets came in there harder. No, everybody came to play. Everybody came to play. Yeah, good pause. You're right. Yo. No, everybody didn't come to play.

Yes, they did. Nigga, you think James Harden really came to play? You motherfucking right. I don't think so. He came to play, but it got neutralized. Nigga, he came to play. I watched the game. He wasn't just out there lollygagging. That nigga was going hard to the paint and was getting that shit

shut down. Getting his pockets picked, all that. Listen, the Sixers lost. My James Harden jersey is on the way. It'll be here Friday. I'll be wearing it.

Which team? Like, yo, they was pushing each other. Them niggas was playing hard yo That's all I got I'll see y'all in the playoffs Maybe Maybe

If they win the play-in game I'll see them in the playoffs I feel like there's more questions I should be asking Royce But I don't wanna I don't wanna ask Royce anything Why not? Uh oh see he done sat up

See I'm back Nigga ain't have his mic or nothing worse than anything. Why not? Uh-oh, see, he done sat up and gone, see? I'm back. Nigga ain't have his mic or nothing. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. It just feels like there's something I should ask, but I don't know. I don't know. Maybe that's just it. Maybe this...

Well, what does this do to our relationship? What the hell are we supposed to do now? Just be friends? We just become best friends. I feel like we should go do some karate in the garage. So no party.

All right, I'll try to have a little bit of fun. Let's have fun, man. So no party. Niggas asked you that already. You don't like to play. I like to play.

What you talking about? Like rapping? Yeah, I thought about it I did I thought I did I thought maybe That they would

Rile me up They didn't get me Riled up enough Yeah but I can't I can't do that If I ain't do that With Lupe Shit

Why not Totally different Why not Shit I could I could have said Why you would do this Yeah I get the opposite

What you saying Like this is worse It's personal Yeah it's personal Lupe wasn't personal Lupe ain't affect you yo You sitting in here Just now

Nigga you was hot Running Yeah Running a fever I wouldn't I wouldn't I just talk like that When I'm

Passionate Yeah I mean It pissed me off It pissed me off a little bit A little bit I'm not as mad as y'all appear to be. And as you sounded. I just remember what Angry Royce over a beat did.

And I saw you not the happiest. So, yeah, I would think this would push you a little bit. When a rapper's allowed to grow up some, I know, dumb question from me. When are y'all allowed to expect something different? No, we can still expect it. It's just if you don't get it because you've grown, then, oh, okay. But niggas are always going to expect what they know you to do. I'm not having fun with this because as a retired rapper, you got to just shut up because you're retired.

And if you know you're not getting out of bed, you know you're not getting out of bed. Shit, that's crook beef with me in the first place. So I ain't going to say nothing, but God damn it, I used to live for these moments. Sure did. I miss that joke. You ain't in shape, Neville. Shit.

Yeah. Yeah. That's a... Yeah. Take a little minute to get... I hear you. That's a farce. I hear you.

You got to get back out there Shoot a whole in around I don't I don't think Royce I just need something to say And I have it I mean No I know you got a lot to say

I have it now I found it I mean it's been a minute You know what I mean But it's like It's not like you gotta get in shape It's like riding a bike Yeah but you gotta get on

And take them first You gotta You gotta catch the beat And all that Yeah That's what the studio's for, though. Okay. I don't know this sport.

Yeah, that shit. Ain't got to come out if it's trash. Yo, I don't think I ever dissed a rapper for money either. That's never happened. And I've been in all the beefs. Battle. Let's say. I never put one on my album.

What did you say? When he battled. But that's what I'm saying I ain't talking about that yeah like I never tried to diss somebody and put it on the album

or use it in the rollout or I was mad when that Drake shit was going on stepping on my rollout I was mad I should have separated

part of that though is because you ain't wait I don't wait like even if I don't wait even if it would have made

more sense to put it on the album he can't hold the record I don't wait like even if i don't would have made more sense to put it on the album yeah he can't hold the record wait oh wait you said some shit and it's a pin right there hey pass me a pen and a notebook we be in the car on the way back from the studio he playing a record as soon as he get home he's going out yeah you can't wait all right let's go go on the album bro no no no no rapping is fun yo that's fun it's fun you wouldn't know because you never wrote a verse it's not my because you never wrote a verse. It's not my thing. You never wrote a verse.

No, it's just going to write a verse, though. But imagine if one of your homies did some flagrant, super foul shit, and you just was able to write over a hard beat what you think about that. I wouldn't do it. Shit. I know I wouldn't. What if your girl your girl broke up with you definitely not doing it foul hell no nigga oh y'all would have never did my

whole career i've tried to keep you from putting out ols remember because you a loser yo no it's not it's not a loser it's just i don't be thinking certain shit is meant to be aired i don't believe in airing out dirty laundry but But that's classic, though. It is a classic in hindsight. Yeah, so you proved to be wrong. No, I still stand in that I don't think it should have went out. Yeah, I know. That's how you feel.

But what I'm saying is. I'm looking at it not from a fan's point of view, though. I'm just looking at it as my man's. I don't want to see you out here airing out your personal shit like that to people that it has nothing to do with even though that's been your thing that's your outlet i have never wanted ols to come out he knows that but what i mean what i'm saying is what's what's what's the point i spent eight hours making an instrumental out of a song that did not have an instrumental for you to step on that shit like why not why not? What's the goal when you do that? When you just...

What do you do? Because I noticed that in the realm of art, like, we elevate, and then when we get to a certain level, like, the aim is always to make that person appear to be perfect. Like, you know, like, we can't make mistakes. Like, the world don't like perfect.

None of us like perfect. We prefer flaws. We don't want our women to be absolutely perfect we like the imperfections that's what we like indeed so like when we you know like huge huge celebrities you know like it's taboo for them to even have a fucking booger in their nose you know i mean like they human beings just like everybody else sometimes we make wrong decisions you know what i mean but he made a career off of expressing himself exactly how he They human beings just like everybody else. Sometimes we make wrong decisions. You know what I mean? But he made a career off of expressing himself exactly how he feels.

And it takes strength to do that. That's not an easy thing to do to be transparent. I've always said, personal shit aside, that to me, Joe was the realest rapper ever because most rappers give you the good. Some of them will give you the bad. This nigga's going to give you whatever it is today. The good, the bad, the ugly, the hideous,

the oh my God, I can't believe you said that. And I got to be the realest because even when it wasn't no bad, I went and created the bad. The realest or the nuttiest? Yeah, that's...

I'm joking. I'm joking. I'm kidding. Or you're just going to take some good shit And make it bad I felt like you was Doing that for a minute He was

Cause it was like You ain't had nothing To write about He was yo This nigga said yo If my household Is going too harmonious I gotta create

I gotta go break Yeah I lived with the nigga I've seen it Well how else You gonna find something To write about I don't think you should

Air that out publicly. Yeah, because there's some other things that you won't allow to be aired publicly. Who, me? Look, see how you could just say that and make me nervous? I don't know what you're talking about. I know, but that's why it's a great line. Some people, some artists can be so transparent and it comes from such a pure place even when it's toxic

that you accept it because of the way that it resonates like DMX. DMX just told you a painful truth. He talked about horrible things.

That's true. And we loved him for it. I don't want to hear him pretending like shit is all good. Some artists are really good at inviting you to an imaginary party

so you can escape how fucked up the world is. So we got to have that wild card that just kind of like holds the mirror up to the people and forces them

to look at the truth. That's what he did. I agree with that. It was just things in that record where I was like, dude, this shit. Well, he messy.

He messy. Yeah, that's all I'm saying. The music is going to be messy because he messy. That's all. I think that's how you stay relevant too messy. He messy. Yeah, that's all I'm saying. The music is going to be messy because he messy. That's all. I think that's how you stay relevant too. By being messy?

No, because you was relatable. Like, you the only one of the only niggas that had fans become your real friends or have fans in your crib

or you talk to them and respond to them online even before any of the new social media shit. You know what I'm saying? I enjoy being personable sometimes.

It makes you relatable. So if I'm going through some heartbreak or I'm thinking about offing myself or whatever the case may be, other people have been in that space. And so it makes it relatable to fans. Fair enough. I'll never forget.

It was a Boston show. I don't know what show it was, but he was doing a meet and greet. And what's Toad's Place was Boston? That's the name of the club? Connecticut. Connecticut. No, no.

Toad's Place, Connecticut. Middle East was Boston. Middle East. That's what it was. And we in the back. It might have been 15, 12, 15 fans back there. And the way most meet and greets is the artist sitting at a table. You walk up, dab, picture, whatever, and keep it pushing.

He had all the fans coming to back, and we literally just sitting around the table while he's smoking and talking. Yep. So, yeah, we don't know none of these niggas. So, niggas is on defense. Just somebody standing over here, somebody standing over here, just watching. And one dude walked in. I don't know if you remember this. A dude walked in kind of

late but he looked like he just came out the hospital like i remember that remember we were shaking real weird looking and yeah yeah yeah yeah he was there so we was sitting there like yo what's up with this nigga yo so everybody making eye contact like yo watch this nigga if he he ain't right jo Joe peeped it said yo everybody relax and said look at you fucking idiots

ready to jump somebody fresh out of a hospital and walked over to the dude and gave him a hug and the dude started crying

and that was the I was like alright I don't understand what the fuck is going on anymore your relationship with your fans is something

I've never seen before the power of the hug on Crook I'm gonna hug him you gonna of the hug on Crook. I'm going to hug him. You going to fuck her out of your swung on? I'm going to go uppercut, left hook the shit out of your ass. And Crook going to be like, get off me, nigga. No, Crook wouldn't do that to me. No, I'm just playing.

I'm just playing. Remember the last time you said that? Nigga punching right in my face. What? Yeah, why would I even say that in that moment? I don't know. Hey, leave him alone. He ain't going to do nothing.

That nigga said, what? That nigga beep, beep, beep. Yeah, man, the power of a good hug. Yo, and back to just being messy in the music and using real life situations as a muse. Thank God I don't do that anymore because you can't even do that no more. The shit that the women are beefing about now, i can't make that shit sound cool in no song these women are beefing

about the nastiest smallest shit i'm gonna put that in the verse do you trip it over instagram likes yeah why you followed her back yeah no yeah it's cool um it's lucky day day oh lord oh my god and this is an interlude i wish y'all stopped doing it Please point my heart I wanna get in your motions All my motions It's like an ass Get into me All the emotions Dancing me with your motion

really weren't well behaved at the pool party. But we go to the front and he was just, him and his team was just talking about the frustrations of trying to get hot while you're on a label. Or just trying to get label support. Especially when you don't do that bullshit.

See, that's the part people don't be knowing. Yeah. You trying to be real. You trying to be authentic. They just make great music. And they want you to do this shit to get hot. Right. Yeah.

But the thing is, when you don't have the label support like you have to be your best self every time out the gate like almost better than your best self and then when they come cool but for now no your own label is looking at you ready to say all right you're gonna give us something so we could for him to do that for years hold up it go all right keep us in your prayers Lord knows we need to be there keep some other people in your prayers too until next time I bid you adieu farewell adios arrivederci hasta la vista so long goodbye G.
