well we can start at a lot of people went to Vegas. Yeah. Vegas was packed. A lot of people went. A lot of people went to Vegas. Real busy, active weekend out there. Full flight. And I got there on 420.

Got there on 420. So my bag comes off the little baggage claim thingamajiggy. And then I go to open it, get some shit out of my bag. And it's not my bag. Don't you know some white lady got the same fucking to me I got? Your name be on the to me. And the nigga just take this. She got her shit in plastic bags. Her shit I want to keep my shit she was a nigga

couldn't fit the La Perla yeah so anyway we get that right so now I'm just without bags and luggage. Oh, so your shit ain't coming. I'm at the airport. No, she took my shit. Oh. The white lady took my bag. Got it. And I got her bag.

But I'm still at the airport. Oh, she... Okay. So I go to the airport, you know, do all that. They like, all right, when she call? I'm like, when she call? Fuck you mean when she call? Yeah, email, fax, Twitter. But anyway, she called.

They brought my bag back. But that means that got to hit that mall. Yeah, let's go to the dispensary just in case someone in our entourage would like to indulge. For sure. It's 420, you know. like to indulge. Sure, sure. It's 420, you know. Mm-hmm.

So the driver dude take us, and the dispensary, I'm old school Vegas. So I know the little blue shit close to the hotel on the side block. So he say, where you want to go? Take me to the blue shit, nigga. He go, no, I'm playing at 13. I go, what, nigga? Just smack the shit out of you, nigga. He go, no, I'm Planet 13. I go, what, nigga? Just smack the shit out of you. Things done changed in Vegas.

Nigga, yo, take me to the little blue shit. Blue shit, yeah, yeah. I got you. Which one? The one close to the... He take us close to the shit. He pull up to Planet 13. Nigga, the blue shit is right there.

Wait. Nah. This fucking Capitalistic Fucking The way my brain See things now Is just It's ruined everything

And everything And everywhere I go The little blue shit The one level spot That everybody used to go to Is right there And Planet 13 And whoever owned this shit

Done set up Right down the block Clearly got a deal With delivery drivers From the airport To bring people to planet 13 that's right and apparently planet 13 is the largest fucking dispensary in the country and they're gonna set up over here and over here and over there and now sound like i'm doing an ad but i ain't i was just blown away that that's what they did it's like a department store that's kind of everywhere it's huge they do that shit like they get to set up with drivers, bring them here.

I'm like, Planet 13 ain't about to have that fire in there, man. Let me go see what's up, though. They had some shit in there, huh? Yeah, Inferno. And after you get on people, your little ID and stuff, and one by one, too. You can't go to the register in a group. It's like, it's a big, you got to be military. They group it's like it's a big you got to be military unless you like being a military player at 13 so then you go in there it's like mad different checkpoints then it's like

yeah we'll text you the register that you go to I'm like all right well so what we just look around means I do whatever you want in the meantime anyway somebody recognized me in there they come up to me yo me my lady whoever we with yo whatever you want to do let's look around let's i got you so i'll go to the register here go some little la nigga hey what's up you did you do you dab hey you dab you dab you want to dab we got this new shit for you to dab. Like, yo, dog. About to smack the shit. About to dab you. Yo, dog. Move. I'm here for whatever we here for.

Don't start dabbing me. But anyway, so I start asking questions about who owns this shit. I can't believe that they did that. That's the punchline of this. I can't believe that they set up this big ass money getting shit right down the block from. From mom and pop shop. I can't believe they built up the greenhouses on Monopoly in front of my yellows. Well, of course they do.

Welcome to Walmart. Behind my yellows. It's a fact. Welcome to Walmart. They do that shit here. They're going to do that shit over there. That's what I'm saying. That's what happened.

The big shit come in and shit on the bottom. They had some shit in Planet 13. Hey, I don't know what happened to all you rappers and your streams. I ain't seen none of that back. All y'all niggas that was ahead of the curve, y'all be just be talking in these songs, man. I seen Allen Iverson's shit up in there. There's some nigga shit up in there. You seen A.R. shit in there?

They got shit in there. What's her name's shit? Al Harrington. Al Harrington. Viola. Al Harrington. Viola? Yeah, that's it.

Baron Davis. Shout out to Trap, Annie and all of them. Yeah. But anyway, so we go to the fucking hotel, and I'm just chilling at that point. It was a good time. It was good to be out there. But my brain has me in when we are out there, when I'm out there for the Floyd and Zab fight, out there when I'm out there for the Floyd and Zab fight

whatever year that was with Web Nitty, Desert Storm Gab Union you was just a so it was a mind fuck for me it was a mind

fuck like a full circle kind of moment no it's just like with more understanding of things Like a full circle kind of moment? No, it's just like with more understanding of things. Older, more money. Today I understand what was happening back then when I didn't. Like I was young. These niggas saved up or had a lot of money for an entourage of 20 and 30 to have jewelry cars flown out rentals

celebrities security other things that needed to be trend like and they did this solely for the look of things and that was really important and a lot of that was on the strength with me right like this is my artist so we're gonna go out to the fight and that's tradition for us to go to the fight and put the jewelry on and the niggas right it's all of the major like popping even all-star weekend like you gotta it's like you have to be there if you're not there you ain't moving right no even if you did you gotta move right well i'm saying you're not even with that as a person that's moving if you're not here but even then that was the year i think that the wind had just opened so it was a big hoopla around oh shit he

opening what where he got that property over there that he about to build up to that was a big hoopla around, oh shit, he opening what, where, he got that property over there that he about to build up to, that was a big deal, so then I go upstairs to my suite and look out the window and see the big Trump building right across the street, and it's just different understanding of the things that are happening around us with the real estate that we exist on, that are happening around us with the real estate that we exist on. Super Bowl is coming to Vegas next year. F1, what's that? What's Formula One?

Formula One is coming out there, nigga. Vegas is a construction site right now. It's a fact. These people are setting up billion-dollar plays in front of us. Right in your face. Yep. The Athletics are moving out. The A's are moving out there. While we at the fight for the look.

Look at the look. Cool. That's deep. In 01, I was the guy following around the celebrities in the casino as an up and coming rapper. Oh, shit. They go Shaq right there. Go holler at that nigga. Try to get an after party.

Oh, shit. They go such and such. Oh, shit. Hey, I was just trying to get an after party. You know, it was that. Today, I was walking around being chased and followed. Up. And I had like a grace for these people because you know I remember that and this

shit is still popping out here all these years ladies like 20 years like the dope boys at the roulette it's just like a movie stop the place like paid and full like that's that's kind of what I'm saying. So it was like a mind fuck a little bit. A little bit for me. But we had a blast. But we had a blast. Seen a bunch of people out there. Oh, then the Usher concert. I had that shit on.

Yeah, nigga. Pause, nigga. Silence now. Come on. We don't know what you're having. No, silence. Y'. Come on. Tell us about your fake. Come on. No, no, no, no. No silence. Yeah. Y'all, that's hate.

That's hate. I had that shit on in there. That's the period. Why you keep stopping? What did you have on? You seen it, nigga. You seen it glistening. You seen it.

Don't play with me. I look good in there. But anyway, we go there. And man. glistening. You've seen it. Don't play with me. I look good in there. But anyway, we go there. And man. Again, another mind fuck. Another fucking

another just we go in and I told you I paid for these tickets. I didn't I did it through Justin through my booking agent but I paid so it's not the VIP back door we just out I'm just out here on a date night with my girl looking good so we get to our

seats it was about 40 minutes in that I realized, this is the best seat in the house. It looked it. It looked it. I tap my girl. I be thinking I'm bugging sometimes. I say, hey, it's the best seat in the house, ain't it? She probably thought I was trying to stun you. But I had a bigger,'m like okay that's odd

as a performer I know what this center stage not too low like right up a little bit eye level to the performer I know what that is and I know I got that shit on but anyway that's odd a little bit

so either he know I'm here or the nigga's looking at me but i'm i'm using all of the bandwidth in my brain to receive what's happening here because any it's an atlanta convention anybody who's anybody in atlanta is here except for bow wow anybody in Atlanta is here. Except for Bow Wow. I don't know what the comedy is. I can't help myself. I don't know. Because then the next day, I'm a little all over the place.

Forgive me. See, you allowed to do this. But then the next day, because I'm great at what I do. But then the next day, Bow Wow going to put up a post after Nelly and Ashanti performed out in Vegas somewhere. It was holding hands. True. The shit said, Nelly and Ashanti scene, holding hands. And I always laugh when I see that because it's like, nigga, they had a show.

That's the gentleman thing to do is hold her hand and that scene all in here Bow I'll say yo me and Big Mo ain't even on good terms right now, but uh, you should go ahead and marry that dog Think bad while and JD still not good from that little 106 debate. They was having a few months ago Now I really just want to get back in the game because I'm telling you, anybody who was in game was at that concert. It was just one nigga missing. Just one

man. He was busy that day. He might have been booked. He might have had to... Say that. No, say that. He's on the PJ. Listen, you think he's going to quit?

Stop, yo. Stop. I told y'all, don't hype me up this part. But listen, because this is where the mind fuck comes in for me, Paul. It's John T. Austin, Brian Michael Cox, Nelly, Division, Jermaine Dupri, The City Girls, P, Steve Stout, Exclusive Games, shout out to him, Julio Jones, L.A. Reid, you name it. But I just covered from 1979 to now, today, in music. All here to celebrate their child who ain't even, but you can't tell nobody else you ain't from Atlanta. That's JD, L.A. Reed, baby.

That's their pride and joy. They've protected him since 12. I was in high school and I bought Can You Get With It, the single. Think of you, the single. Little nigga in the video dancing around with the tank top. I was in high school and bought that. It's embedded in my fucking. So it's back to that barcode talk that I keep having,

which are all about music. When you handle it that way from Rip, ushers the LeBron of this shit. He's never been caught up out of music. Think of all our favorite R&B niggas. That's not true. Dog, when they tried to catch him up with that little scam that they say might not be his scam the niggas made records and went diamond then they put herpes on him it didn't slow him down a bit it didn't slow him down i know some people that the herp rumor slowed down i'm telling you that didn't slow him down. I'm not saying it slowed him down.

What else they said? Oh, his mama ain't like his girlfriend. You know how clean you got to be for this to be what the conversation is, is what I'm saying? It's LeBron going to the boys club. Saying, hey, I'm announcing the first time. It's the one hiccup. He's avoided a lot of shit with smash after smash. That's the way you do it. a just barcode after barcode and

now I'm doing a Vegas residency look like I'm positioning myself for the Super Bowl he said but it looks like it just makes sense it's out there yeah I have a residency that is two years going now yeah everybody every night is here the next night the Kardashians is there mm-hmm sort of anyway watching the show 45 minutes in it's a lot of this guy's a every night is here. The next night, the Kardashians is there. I saw that. Anyway, watching the show, 45 minutes in, it's a lot of,

this guy's a showman. This guy is a natural at what he does. Like, there are showmen and then there are people that just can do, can score from anywhere

on the field. So, it's skating, it's smoking, it's singing, it's dancing, it's singing, it's dancing, it's spinning, it's Vegas for 45 minutes. And I turned to Corey, I tapped this nigga, I said, hey, man, about to fuck this nigga up, man.

This nigga's scamming us, all right? This nigga better. But I'm stupid. Take a lot of energy to do this two nights in a row every fucking weekend until December right

and then midway through he just started going crazy just singing everything hit after hit going in the audience shouting this total command

of what I'm guessing it looks like a 7,000-seater oh is that big yeah I think it said six but yeah somewhere to me between five and seven I'm guessing but it looked like Madison Square's the show or a little bigger than that it's their theater right off the mgm so total command of everything moving in there but the part that y'all want to hear about at some point the nigga get off the stage and he's singing and he's singing uh there goes my baby that ain't really my favorite usher slap

i mean at this point i might have been a Instagram but I might have looked away for a minute but I look up and he's no longer on stage he's in front of you no he ain't in front of me but I don't know where he at

cause he's such an amazing performer he could be anywhere that nigga's like Spiderman he could have been coming from the but anyway I'm chilling

And then I just heard What's up Joe Oh shit This nigga's in front of me Oh shit this nigga's a magician So now what do you got to do We just talked about this And I believe in the power of words And how you will things to your fucking front door.

I told y'all God be play would be bad. So what do you do? Dap him up. What do you do? Dap him up. Dap him up. No Canadian woman. Oh shit, sorry.

Fuck. You aggressively dap him up. Let him know that your hand is a lot larger than his little tiny hand. I'm putting sauce on it, of course. But he was

just as polite as could be. Do your mind. All of that gentleman shit. Then he did some smooth criminal. He slid to the side and took her hand. All right now, girl. All right.

This is that moment where your discernment is this is on you. This could go either way. You picked Blue Pillar Rapist. Don't make me. don't make me

don't make me do it and my baby she put her little arms up did a little shimmy shimmy shake shake two step she kept it classy she did

very classy she did and then she looked like he was about to hit a little spin now but everybody broke it up everybody broke it up

she slid on down to the side, continued with his amazing performance. My heart slowed down a little bit for some reason. But you know what? You know what? That's funny. I'm putting sauce on the story. But even in that moment, like it's artist to artist. Like I know what you're doing and i trust you to do what

you're doing because of what you're doing look at what you're doing like this is here it's important to know everybody who's here that could be important to the show even if that's impromptu like freestyle in the moment like the niggas the niggas ill niggas ill. The niggas ill. He is. Usher. Shout out to Usher. No, he absolutely smoked that entire performance. Entire performance. So then B Cox was having an after party. R&B after party.

That shit was going to be lit. But of course, my feet was hurting. Shorty feet was hurting. Went on back to the room stayed in the yeah didn't even didn't even go

lame then the next night little baby in the PNM was having a big party at Dre's and shit that was supposed to be real good but

feet were still hurting feet was hurting you know well no that day was it a day party or no that was a night party after the fight. That was the party that everybody was, that was the one.

Yeah. But early in the day, me and my baby went to eat. She ordered some shit. She asked them, niggas, hey, does this have pork in it? They said, I don't think so. For some reason, that was an acceptable answer. And they sure enough brought her the veal and the all, you know, the shit

and the meatball. And then she was throwing up and then she didn't feel the greatest. Oh no. That oink. Stop right there. What? That's what that oink do. Told you. Well, this is just an important talk to have.

Are you in park? Where you going? I told you, niggas. You all right? Yeah, because I can get you some Pepto. I'll go get me a water. Some Alka-Seltzer. Text me if you need me.

I'm going to watch this fight now. Fight. Was that your intention to go to the fight? I was never going to the fight because I never thought that the fight was going to be about, I didn't respect a little YouTube boy like that. I'm mad at Corey because... Because Corey didn't tell you that it was going to be that shit?

No, because he said the bets was what? It was... The knockout was even money. Knockout was even money. You spend 500, you make 500. Why don't he call me and text me and sign it, went right downstairs and put something on it? Come on, man.

I felt like that was easy money. It was. Did any of y'all bet on the fight? Nope. I wish I would have. That was easy money. I wish I would have. But anyway, this is a real important discussion

for relationships to be had. Because what do you do when you're in Vegas and your girl is a little under the weather because you ate something she shouldn't have ate while the biggest party in the universe is happening with all your peers and your coworkers and the people that you want to show face with and the shoulders that you want to kind of rub with and network with for eight and nine figure deals to possibly come across you. What do you think we'll do? Nick, I'm going to the party. Facts. i'm going to the party text me if you need me i'll put on some rain music on youtube

24 hour one you're gonna put on some low five soothing sounds Oh, shit. Soothing sounds. White noise. Healing noises. Relax, and I'm out. Oh, man. I'm out. Are y'all partying? No.

Or y'all talking for real? I'm not going. Come on, talk to me. I'm not going. You're not going in? Nah, nigga. You're going to stay with her, man? Tell me how you do it.

Y'all going to say I'm partying, so I'm out. No, that's not true. I just think that you're smoother than me. So tell me how you get it Y'all gonna say I'm potting No that's not true I just think That you're smoother than me So tell me how you Tell me how you get it off In a moment I'm just staying with my girl Oh wait you said

You're staying with her I'm staying with her Oh alright so I'm not Talking about you I'm putting it on work Tell me how While your girl is in the bed Clutching her stomach

Throwing up over the toilet Cool now you You back in the bed Listen I'm nearby Hit me if you need anything But this is You know we trying to Set this next thing up I'm nearby. You can hit me if you need anything, but this is, you know, we're trying to set this next play up for work. I'm saying he's potty.

And you better hop in the shower while she's throwing up and try to get a hit. Baby, let's get in the shower. I'm going to get in there and rub your stomach, girl. Listen, listen. If she lays down. You got to put your cologne on before your girl threw up in the air, baby.

If she laid in there, you'd be like, I'm not potting. I disagree. The scientists say that. I vehemently disagree, baby. If you're listening. Look, I'm not potting because anybody with me know we trying to get to this bag.

You know that. So stop right there. You already have. And that's where i checked myself since we have an honest talk here i told her i believe that if i communicated these things to my partner she would have no problem she would be the one to say you go but i never did that because it's like a such an impromptu it's an impromptu and that's seriously and that's the thing about when niggas go out without women. You can be nimble. True. With women, you kind of have to be attentive to them and on their timing and their schedule.

That's true. My, oh shit, we got to run a CVS, we got to go to the store, oh shit, my last, my makeup, my hair, my shoes, I need to pair. I forgot. It's their time. It's their time. It's their time. And I'm out here for this. I'm out here for the date night. You're not a people person.

I'm you. You're not a people person. I'm going to stay home. Stay with my girl. Even though you went to the party, you was going to go there for 40 minutes and leave. Even more the reason I'm going to go to the party. Zaire was out there. I'll be right back.

He was texting me. Yo, dog. He's like, yo, my girl. I'm not texting you. Yo, do you know how you sound as a man when your man is like, yo, ah, ah, ah. Like, yo, my lady. So wait, what was Zaire's response to that when you said, no, my lady, she's feeling sick and I'm going to stay in? He said what any logical man would say.

Ah, nigga, you're blaming your girl. You bitch ass nigga, you're a queen. You're blaming your queen. I'm like, nah, don't do that. That's how it sounds. I get it. So he's like, yo, but there's traffic over here. The line is long, it's moving and shaking.

It's lit over here. So even if you leave in the next 20, I'm telling you, but we got to walk in together. Man, I know what time that is. So I go upstairs. I'm drawing a play out in my head. You contemplating? I'm trying to ice it.

My nigga Freeze say he wouldn't. If Freeze could do it. I go upstairs. She's in the bathroom. You can hear it, too. You can hear it. Wow. You can hear it. What? Pardon me, man. Let me get in the shower real quick.

Why you throwing up right now? I ain't shooting potting, yo. But I don't care. That part is potting, yeah. But I don't care. I'm still going to the party. I'm going. Because niggas think it, though.

That's why it's funny. You think it. You definitely think it. And you start wearing it. So once I've seen that, Damn, the benefit is. You. I'm going. Don't benefit from it as much. I think that it's mostly understanding.

I think. You get what I'm saying? What the hell? I don't think so. Joe ain't the biggest people person. Uh-huh. True. One.

You want to go stay in the corner. Sometimes you got to be a people person. Yeah. You know, depending on what the zeros look like. Sometimes you got to be a people person. And then number two, you up. So how do you tell your girl, like, I left you there. I ain't hold your hair.

She been sick all day, though. Did you hold her hair all day? Not all day. I need two hours. He said they ate dinner. I need two hours. Yo, let me tell y'all out there, boyfriends of the world, I don't think our girls care that we trying to get up.

They don't. At all. They don't kind of really. They want you to be up. But how you do that... It depends on what day. If we got a date weekend planned, fuck your upness.

If you already up, you can't tell your girl that you going somewhere to get up while she's sick already up, you can't tell your girl that you going somewhere to get up while she's sick. Yes, that's true. You can't even tell her like, yo, I'm going to get this money.

Nigga, you already got money. On a date weekend. That's where it gets true. One date. If it was just like a regular weekend or something like that, then you might go.

In a long distance relationship, that one little argument will last for the next. We'll carry this shit to September. True. I don't know. I think it ought to be an understanding beforehand.

I ain't playing. No, I'm Scorpio. If there's an understanding beforehand, like. No, I'm Scorpio. So about months in advance. Listen, if you get sick or fucked up, I'm still going. Oh my God, that's so premeditated. What the fuck?

But it's true because we have certain people have these conversations and relationships. I don't think people that's not in one can relate. Wow. Oh, shit. Oh, my God. Hold up. Wait. No, no, no.

What? What happened? Man, what? Yo. I'm sorry. No, I'm just saying. Shots fired. No, not you, man. I'm just saying. He let that shit off. No, I'm just saying. No, not you, man.

I'm just saying. He let that shit off. No, the truth is that my wife would be the one to say, no, you can go ahead, go. My wife would be there because we had the conversation down the line. She understands the grind. She see the, maybe because I guess it's different with a long distance relationship. That's PC though.

Even if your girl tells you, yo, go ahead, go. She don't really want you. She don't really want you. And you yo, go ahead, go. She don't really want you. And you say, go ahead, go. No, I'm good. I'm good. And you really be like, oh, alright, cool. Throw your shit on. Wait, can you, now you went. Let's say I'm playing it out with you. You went.

Let's go. Can you get on your story? Ah, ah. No, no, no. You can't have fun. You can't have fun. You cannot have fun. You, you can't have fun. I wanna prove. You can't have fun. You can't have fun. You cannot have fun. Bottles.

You're not allowed to have fun, girl. Get your weight off. You spent $9 million. Oh, it's going crazy. Javonte in here. We slap boxing. What you talking about? Yo, you play too much.

You play too much, Javonte. Yo, chill. Yeah. What, nigga? Yo, you smoked on me tonight. What the fuck is you talking about? Hey, hold up. What if you went out, bet, and come back up all the way?

Yo, your girl don't know how to do that. You are already up. True. Your girl don't care. Your girl don't know the difference between 20 million and 27 million, nigga. You already up. Oh, true. OK.

She curled up. Look, you up. She curled up. True. But what if you give her an M? Yo, look. Shut up. You all right. All right. Yeah, she curled up. True. But what if you give her an M? Yo, look, this is. Shut up. All right.

Yeah, I know. Exactly. You mute up for a second, buddy. I want to get back to that lineup that was at this Usher concert. Well, I didn't tell you the funniest part of Usher coming to serenade Sade. I can tell you the funniest part of Usher coming to serenade Sade. The whole time up to this point, there's this big, bald, doofy white dude in a cowboy hat next to me moving and shaking a tail feather. With two little, you know what I mean?

He had some bread. He was having a time of his life He was having the time of his life. He owes the catalog or some shit. Man, these guys are a little wild. And then I tapped Corey. I said, hey, you see the dude over there? We got to jump that nigga. And then Corey said, I think that looked

like a... I said, holy shit. You are fucking right. Who's that? That's Steve Ballman. Ballmer? Ballmer that owned the Clippers Microsoft. Hat low.

In there. Chilling. Date. Hello. Wait. Wait. You peon? You better find your fucking name.

I have never felt so insecure. Oh my god, yo. I got to stop talking that shit, yo, because it's niggas out there with that shit. Yeah. I just be potting. Yo. I just be talking to the little niggas under me.

I don't be talking to the owner of the fucking Clippers to come sit next to mine, man. Yo. Go ahead, yo. Nah, I'ma keep it a bug. So I told you. I did. Shorty could've been throwing up her guts. That nigga wanted a meeting.

Got a gun. You know, got a gun. Oh wait, so you switched up. He was on my side the whole time. Oh, wait. Look, hey, yo, man. He was on my side the whole time. You switched up. Hey, I'm not. Look. He was on my side the whole time. Hey, yo, my nigga, I'm not leaving my girl for little baby.

But I'm leaving my girl. Save the little baby. Hey, yo. Oh, snap. How you going to do it, though? Yeah, let me hear this. You heard of Microsoft before? Stop it.

All right. He wanted a top three. Yo, fuck what? I told my girl, I asked him if he wanted a drink or something. Yo, you thirsty? I was like, girl, move if you ain't going to do it. You're playing. Yo.

But he was in there so incognito. And that's where I got a good laugh at too, right? After the show, and I'm getting back to the music part of this. But after the show, all the blogs put to the music part of this but after the show all the blogs put up all the celebs were there

and they put up a picture of Carisha Lil Baby you dead smack in the middle of that picture

is L.A. Reid the man responsible for probably half of the R&B since whenever he came out. And nobody knew a thing. Like where the focus is today, that Steve dude was there,

and nobody knew a thing. Like, I want to do that. Did I say that? I want to do that. I don't want all of us to ship our cars and get our jewelry and be front row and spend $300,000, $350,000 on a night that we'll never forget. When we can have a life that we can, I don't want to do that. It felt good to be out there as this version of me. Got it.

It felt good to just be moving with intention. Like having somewhere to go and having your ducks in a row, no matter who you see. Fucking Kenya Barris. Oh, shit, what up? Ah, you good? Yeah, salute. Oh, shit, Steve Jackson, you here? Ah, Kenya Barris. Oh, shit, what up? Ah, you good? Yeah, salute. Oh, shit, Steve Jackson, you here?

B Marshall. Oh, shit, you working? Nah, I'm here to see Usher. He's like, no, you sound excited. All right, relax. Stop playing with me. I'm just saying to see, you know what I mean? You see them Best Fest, Vashon and them is over there.

You just see the mix while you're going to get coffee, while you're going to just stay out of the way of things. You're not looking to be seen. I was going to say that. Looking for the look, the visibility, all of that rapper, not rapper shit, but just wrong information that they feed us for us to funnel back in. I'm not winning on that.

It felt good to just experience the 180. Nice. That's dope. Back to the music side, though. Atlanta has, my New York bias is still here, but boy has Atlanta seemingly seemingly they have familyed a lot better than us yeah absolutely thousand times way but leaps and bounds

better than us right and back to the mind fuck here everybody in the industry knows that they read to be the guy that has cut a huge check to anybody that he fucks with and loves. And typically, those were Atlanta people. When Leroy Cohen leaves Def Jam for whatever he's about to go do, L.A. Reid comes into Def Jam to fix it, but outed from wherever he was at

because I spent a lot of money. That's a dope reason to kind of be outed. I'm saying this today with more understanding of things. Right? So Leo has to leave Def Jam because the feds come in and now he can no longer empower all of the biggest, baddest, most talented street execs from around the world to find the Jay-Z's, the Ja Rule's. Now we can't do those anymore here. We can't do Disturbing the Peace, Rockefeller, Murder, Inc., Rough Riders.

They housed a bunch of them. So when that stopped, they had to rebuild now. But L.A la comes and now nas gets polo to dawn beats polo to dawn was there la comes and there's a focus on just jeezy and atlanta and that which led me to well goddamn there's a whole lot tied to both leo cohen and la reed leeroy Cohen has basically been the New York New York hip-hop

mayor or finder street A&R since the 80s. Russell, he comes from the Russell tree. L.A. comes from the Babyface tree. Atlanta, they did it. They did it. Who wins that versus?

Shout out to Jonte Austin. He was the fresh to death in there. Freshest man in the world. He looked like one of the five Arby's. See, but look at that. All these niggas, they wrote these fucking songs. They was in the studio sleepless nights with this man. They found him as a little nothing nobody.

They built it. They all there to celebrate this man. And boy, what a little nothing nobody. They built it. They all there to celebrate this man. And boy, what a celebration he put on. That shit felt good. I was hating. I was hating. When Atlanta steps out like that, they look

invincible. They look strong. They move together. It's a difference. It's so many of them. It's a difference. It's so many of them. It's a clear difference, too. It's clear. Yeah. It's clear.

We don't look like that. At all. At all. At all. Not even close. Like, that shit is evident. You don't even got to be in the music business to see it. But I'm there looking at it from the smallest detail. You you know every time i've seen p and these niggas like for the last few years

i've always seen julio jones like even the smallest detail like that do you know what that means for the star receiver of the fucking team to show up every time we out he was invested no i don't know i don't know i thought i remember that part, but I could be wrong. I'm just talking about who he be. And when you see some six foot six star athlete, that's like LeBron popping out every time two changes. It's like something, it's different. It says something.

It says something when you see all these niggas that's upper eight, nine figure deals, and they all have situations to continue to give their people situations. It's a dope pipeline. All of the poppin' Atlanta rappers at some point got their own situation. It's a fact.

Jeezy, Future. I don't want to make it racy. T.I., P, Gucci. All of them. All of them got their own situation. All of them. How could you not be from up here and hate on some of that shit? That shit look good.

I'm going to end with that. That shit look good. I ain't going to lie to you. I'm not going to lie to you. Little baby there in some sweats. Yeah, I'm here. I'm on going to lie to you. Little baby there in some sweats. Yeah, I'm here. I'm one of the artists moving around. I'm here just because my family and...

But I work tomorrow. Tomorrow I'm going to have... I'm going to get on my shit. Like, that's... It's empowering. Felt good to be there for the right reasons with the right people doing the right things. Under the right circumstances.

Yeah. I'm hating. That's just how it looks the right circumstances. Yeah. I'm hating. That's just how funny I'm hating. We're all hating. So you watch the fight from your hotel room? Well, that's the other thing. Better understand our business work, boy. I'm rusty.

I thought if you was in Vegas that you could see the fight somewhere not now oh not now if this is a MGM production that we got licensing right then nobody within none of the feet you can't show this fight no way you can only see it on the big big big screen if you pay at MGM I as a famous nigga was not going to the big screen to pay to see this fight I was watching the playoff game oh shit in my bedroom Wow no I see it either I wasn't there for the fight the fight wasn't my interest somebody earlier in the day told me that if I wanted to go, that they had tickets for me.

So just out of curiosity, I'm like, all right, how much you want for it? Like 10K a pop. I'm cool. If I really wanted to go, I think I could have made a phone call and got there. But that's what I'm here for. That's interesting. Well, it's money wrapped up

in that though. So like, you're not going to know, like even people that have fight parties, unless, if they did it the legit way,

because some people, I saw, I know a couple spots that had the fire stick hooked up to the TV and was having a fight party. It's always going to be that. But the legit spots,

they got to charge you. Yeah. They have to yeah that's part of their deal with the company being able to broadcast cables yeah they gotta they have to charge for you to come and watch this fight and that's out here that's here yeah that's here and the big fights bring together so many different like all of the boxing world up and coming different heavy champion different just champions legends and legends are there right media has to cover this so they out there in

abundance just tourism it's amazing to see they building it they building that little in and out burger and now y'all gonna work y'all gonna work out there but y'all gonna get cracked when y'all come out here next to these uh shake shacks oh i'm standing by that but anyway they just setting up for the future it made me want to come back here and work your ass and delve a little more into setting up for the future right it took me back to Neil deGrasse's statement about how, you know, I told you about how all the aborted babies outnumber us by the million. So if we even hear, we defeat the odds because what is here anyway? Like I know I'm getting weird now but whatever this is I'm here to spice it up like we could be quiet when we die mmm like I can't we can't

play I couldn't I couldn't land back here and go to the strip club I told you that evolution is coming I couldn't do it. You get that feeling where you can't, I can't smoke that. I understand. Anyway. Growth. Yeah. How are you? We're good. Feeling pretty good.

Yeah. Feeling pretty good. Glad to have you back. Oh, wait, no. So, now Corey, fucking old ex-drug dealer head, felon head ass nigga. Holy shit. Hits now. Yo, Vegas for Super Bowl. All us get together for the booth. It's only about a buck, buck 20.

Everybody put in about 10, 20 grand or just put something in and we get the booth and it fit. How many people fit? 24. Like 20 people. So now the fantasy football niggas put that in my text too.

But I still behave like a broke nigga. So when I read shit like that, I just go in one ear and out the other. I'm like, oh, that nigga's going wild for a little bit. Like I be having to remember that we can do these things. So, I know we haven't done our guy trip. I'm down.

I'm down. But if y'all want to, now, what month is this? We got time to save, put away. Like, we could plan and really go out there. I wouldn't mind doing Arizona, too, not for nothing. Live once. What's in Arizona? The Super Bowl is here.

Vegas is next year. Oh, okay. I thought that Vegas was. Okay. Arizona is this year. Vegas is next year. Got it. For Vegas because Vegas is where the money will be different.

It's going to be different. I'm targeting to Vegas. Okay. But my question to y'all is, is everybody bringing their girl? Yes. This is an audio adventure. No, it's a group. We with the masses.

No. This is with the masses. What'd you say? No. Ice? No. No, you saying? No. Ice? No. No, you saying? Yeah, I'm saying no.

I mean, I would usually roll with the collective, but I don't think that'll fly. I don't know. I gotta say yeah. If your girl don't come, then I could be like, yo, yo, you can't be the only one, you know what I mean? If I was COE, I would call right now and try to do it, but I'm not going through this right now.

I'm not even playing. I don't think I can play. I ain't even playing with nobody. Unless a nobody girl could go, then yeah, I could get it off. Sure. You know what we could do? We could send our girls out there as a little, as a girl crew. I think that's smooth.

I think I did a good job. Y'all don't like that one? Nigga, you got an alternative? You think that's smooth. I think I did a good job. Y'all don't like that one? Nigga, you got an alternative? You think that flies? Yeah. Let me hear your option. Can I ask a question? It's better than, yo, me and the homies

is heading to Vegas for the Super Bowl. You stay here. No, what time does our flight leave? We live potting out there. This is work. All right. Well, my girl is the only one that came to sit there. Well, mine doesn't sit there.

Oh, you haven't done that in years. That horseshoe ain't going to fly. That ain't the one. Sorry to hear that. That's y'all. I'm going to get like y'all one day. It's not going to fly. I'm going to get like y'all one day.

I'm telling you right now. Y'all two fly for me. No, it's not going to fly. It's work. It would not fly at all. It's not flying fly. I'm gonna get like y'all. I'm telling you right now. Y'all too fly for me. No, it's not gonna fly. It's work. It would not fly at all. It's not flying. Holy shit. I just remembered something

that I won't perpetuate any further. Holy shit. But. Fuck, I can't wait to hear this shit. I just can't help this. He can't.

He can't. He really can't. Boy. Don't kick the cup, clumsy Clarence. Boy. Anyways. So,

would Mel be rolling with us or the ladies? With the ladies, ladies? No. No. I was about to say why that won't fly.

That's where it get a little tricky. It get a little tricky like that. I was about to say that. Why that won't fly. Oh, you see, that ain't gonna fly then when she do that.

Yeah. Wait, who do what? If Mel not going with the ladies. We asked out. If she ain't with us. But Mel could be doing her own thing. Nah, they got to see her.

She got to walk with them and do her own thing. She can't leave with us. Oh, y'all immature. Y'all make an H, man. Y'all make an E, man. How you make an H, man? I ain't make an H, man. I'm chilling.

Where you want to be at, Mel? With the crew. That ain't going to work. That ain't going to work. That's not going to work. We have to. What? I am telling you guys, along with the world. If we telling our girls they got to go do this.

My girl's going to come with me. Look. That's what I'm saying. That's why I said it ain't going to work. That shit, none of that flies. You said you're a girl, so go fuck her, Mel. Hey, Mel is with us? All right, forget it.

Forget it. Forget it. We tried. We tried. Yeah, fuck. This is crazy. One day. It ain't a black card in the world.

I'm gonna get you on Patreon. It ain't a black card in the world. I'm gonna get her on Patreon. The fight. The fight. The fight that I didn't see, but I'm up to date on. I know what happened. I watched it.

I watched it, too. It was a good fight. It was. Really good fight. I thought Tank was going to knock him out in the third round. Tank had me nervous in the beginning, but apparently he learned that from Floyd to start off slow. Yes, I always do. That's what you're doing.

Omba came out very aggressive. Yeah. Very aggressive. And That's what you're doing. Oboe came out very aggressive. Yeah. Very aggressive. And that's what got him knocked out. But Tank had that fight in the seventh round. He called it like a week or two before on camera. He did. Said he was going to get him in the seventh or eighth round. It was the seventh round. He did. With a tough body shot. At first, I didn't see it.

I was like, I just saw him take a knee. I was like, what's happening right now? The shot was that, well, from the angle I saw at first. At first, nobody saw it. Yeah, at first, nobody saw it. That's how quick it was. He sent that nigga's liver to Jupiter. He sent that shit to Elsa Gunn.

I'm watching all the idiots. Oh, he took a dive. Like, fam. No. He's going to get up. Give yourself a little love tap right there and you'll understand. That nigga body said, hey, fam, I understand that you want to tap right there and you'll understand. That nigga body said, hey fam, I understand that you want to continue,

but we're going to go sit down. You stop now. Yeah. No, Nick, you didn't hear me? All his organs were shifted. Hey, quick question to yourself. You like to cum? No, do you like to breathe?

Yeah, I was about to say, fuck that. You want to piss blood? Yeah, you like peeing normal? That shit's smooth, right? We got to appreciate the small things in life. Too many of those? Yeah. Bad for business.

You ever had, nigga, a stomach CTE? Oh, shit. Nigga, you the first comment, first case. That nigga sent his stomach to the poor YouTuber. Hey, buddy. You ain't on YouTube now, kid. That nigga bent down. He was fucked up.

He made you touch the earth. Yo, how you touch the planet? You hit a nigga in his side, and his nose start bleeding. Yeah. That's what happened. You make a motherfucker die breathing, and you breathing in you. You're saying something. You're saying something. Yo, nah.

Hey, Ryan Garcia, stop making complaints to somebody that was a leak in your camp. Nah, I think that's valid. I'm jacking that. Wait, he said what? What did the leak say? I'm jacking that. What did the leak do? The interview that I think is the same interview that you were referencing where he caught

the round he would knock him out in he says to the guy hey when you get a chance ask him about that that that punch that's that body blow and the guy's confused he's like wait what are you what you talking about you're like just ask him about it he'll know what you're talking about and the guy's like did this happen in a fight he was was like, nah, just ask him about it. And that was the end. So then you fast forward to how you ended him with the body blow. And now Ryan is saying that the guy in his camp let him know, let Gervonta know that in training and sparring, this was the spot.

Yeah, somebody not getting it. Because he was being hurt there. Like, apparently he had got put down like that a few weeks earlier. I mean, it's possible. A guy did a video and said he put him down. Nah, but you don't want somebody in your camp. That's crazy.

That is crazy for your camp to do it, but... Now, he also owned it in the next slide. He said, yo, a loss is a loss. I lost. I lost to the better fighter. But it's unfortunate that somebody close to me did that. And I get it. It's big business.

I'm telling y'all. I get that. Dog, if you have that information, not you, but somebody's selling that information. I'm not disagreeing, but you as a fighter, if you know that that's your weakness, work on your weakness. Well, that's facts.

Stop throwing haymakers, opening yourself up to get hit like that That's facts I'm with you I came in I'm like yo dog He swings mad While he opens his whole body up

When he swings Yeah he did They was showing like The real fight experts They was showing how When he be fighting He be opening his whole body up He caught take

While he got caught In the liver too He did He caught it To catch You gotta open yourself up To get caught Facts And that's what happened But even if like Like y'all said Y'all didn't see the fight While he got caught in the liver, too. He did. He caught him. When you keep going to catch, you got to open yourself up to get caught.

Facts. And that's what happened. But even like y'all said y'all didn't see the fight. And actually watching the fight from round one, like Park said, he went out super aggressive. Super. He did. And when you fighting somebody like Tank. That can hit hard. You kind of got to slow that down.

That's how he got dropped in the second so fast. It was like he came super aggressive, left himself open, lay down. Awesome, wild, overzealous shit. Put him on his ass. Go night-night. He got up. He got up. He fought well. He got hard. That boy

tank as a reader and reactionary in the moment assessor like Floyd, like y'all talk about. When he weaved and then weaved again and then tucked and got that smother and just a quick bang.

I know y'all have never been hit in any of the fights that y'all have had because y'all are all Conan. Who you talking about? I've been hit a lot. What? All of y'all are beautiful people with good skin

no scars blemishes nothing had to heal no marks I mean all of you y'all was good kids but listen

you ever got hit by somebody that's like fast fast think about the fastest nigga that ever caught you and think about what you said to yourself

in that moment oh shit I didn't see that nah nah real talk nigga that white light started talking to you did this nigga hit you to yourself in that moment. Oh, shit, I didn't see that. We'll talk. That white light starts talking to you. Did this nigga just hit me? I didn't even know what happened. You hit a ring in your ear. You on the floor.

That nigga smooth, man. Oh, you got dropped? Yeah, I got dropped before. Hell yeah. What? I tried to hit somebody with an axe. Huh? Where'd you get an axe?

From my house. It was in your pocket? What is happening? You got to fight. I fight. Yo, you tried to get hit with an axe and they my house. It was in your pocket? What is happening? I fight with Jamaicans. Yo, you tried to get hit in the back with an axe and they slipped it and dropped you? No.

They took the axe and smacked you. Wait, you lost with that. That strike warped for him. No, no, no. It's not. I'm explaining because you know you like to laugh. Yeah, give a cheer on that. So what I'm saying is that when they were taking the axe from me to give him a fair one, I turned and got hit.

Oh, so he sucker punched you. Yeah. It was like a sucker punch. Like, put your hands up. Yeah, no sucker punching. So it's like, yo, come on, TJ, get an axe. Because that's, it's like family shit. No, but that's called, I get what you're saying, but that has to be called something different.

Like, sucker punch while armed. No, but I gave, like, I gave the axe. I know, but I understand. He gave you the axe. Yeah, he I gave the axe. I know, but I understand. He gave you the axe. He gave me the axe. Now, say that with disrespect. I didn't get chased by a bunch of... Stop.

Stop. Yo, wait. Wait, wait, wait. Hold up, because he says that. The nigga went and did his little analytic search on me. At what point in life does the statute of limitations run out on the fight that you had? When it ain't funny no more.

When it ain't funny no more. Cause what you talking about? I was 16. Still funny? I don't like that. I don't like that. Cause you up now. They remember. No, they look forward more now that you up. Now they really want to know.

What if you run into them niggas and they probably gonna check? Yo, Flip. Hey, Flip, you wearing? I'm not gonna hold you. I don't want a problem with a soul, yo. Nah, that's a fact.

At all. Like, life is so kind of right now. I keep trying to extend it. True. Like, I keep really literally trying to enjoy every second of this thing like

i'd be forgetting i just had a long total court like i'm i'm the way that i move and like where i am they not indicative of each other true that's true has been telling you that for a while i mean we we it's jokes and pardon and stuff like that, but nobody wants to be attached to any type of violence or street bullshit. You want to move forward when you're in a great position. It's overrated.

That's not, that ain't it. And you ever notice that when you go back there, like when you get into that, how the person that you're going against try the hardest to bring you down or try to hurt you,

nigga, like it's not even the same. Nigga, just like that, everything can go. I be feeling yucky. Yeah, but like,

our aspirations have to change. True. For our aspirations to change, you know, we just need to be better armed with info

and just what we... We gotta unlearn a lot of the nigga shit. Yeah. That's really what it is. How easy it is for you. That nigga shit, like, niggas hold on to that

And really champion that like But just cause they don't know anything else That's what I'm saying But how easy If you know that And you in a position How easy it is for you to walk away How easy it is for you to say

Yo you know For who? For my fight? In general Today? Very easy Easy as shit What?

I was gonna say Can I Would you describe that as like being like a form of toxic masculinity no no none of that nigga shit is not a form of toxic masculinity it can be i mean they the two can live in the same space but it's not as a result of that because toxic masculinity you could take a person that don't have no urban street knowledge whatsoever and they can that's why I said a form of. They could be a toxic male.

You get what I'm saying? Like you could grow up in Beverly Hills and have toxic masculinity. The environments that we talking about is just shit that you learn. In your environment. You're supposed to do this. You're supposed to do that. You get what I'm saying? And again, women learn it.

You know what I mean? There's certain ways that you're supposed to do that. You get what I'm saying? And again, women learn it. You know what I mean? There's certain ways that you're supposed to carry yourself. It's just like an unwritten rule of how you're supposed to respond to certain stimulus. And we got to unlearn that. And Flip, the fight is not in walking away from a fight. Because that could be difficult to do. True. The fight is avoiding where the fight will be.

True. Avoiding. Got it. I tell Ice. Now, you can't Avoiding. Got it. I tell Einstein. Now, you can't control that, of course, but this is a game of probability.

The Monopoly game is the dice, right? It's probability. It's probability. They'll keep throwing them at you. If you're at the bar at 3 o'clock in the morning... No, the wrong bar.

Yeah. Most bars. You could be at the rightiest bar in the world and there's still a chance some bullshit's gonna happen at 3 o'clock in the morning. But the probability

of being at this bar versus this bar is way higher. This shit could happen at 9 o'clock at the morning but the probability of being at this bar versus this bar is way high this shit can happen at nine o'clock at this bar and that's true well all our grandmas got some type of phrase about nothing outside but listen ain't nothing open but some legs i don't want to get all serious and emotional but that's why the situation like when you hear about pat staying and stuff like that, you're like, nigga, wait, what? You know what I'm saying?

Like, when can you enjoy yourself without having to worry about your safety or your life? Pat. Can you tell me who that is? Pat Staley. He's a battle rapper. A battle rapper. Legendary.

Legendary battle rapper. Iconic. From Canada. Trailblazing battle rapper. One of the best to ever do it. Yeah. I sent this to you, right? No. Noblazing battle rapper. One of the best to ever do it myself. I sent this to you, right? No, this was recent.

He got stabbed outside a bar, I think. And they got that. When your associations change, your surroundings change. No, but that's not... Anything can happen. They just stabbed Bob Lee.

Yeah, but we talking about the probability. We could walk outside and get hit by lightning tomorrow. Anything can happen to anybody at any time. You know what I'm saying? Anything can happen, but when you... The probability. The probability. We could walk outside and get hit by lightning tomorrow. Anything can happen to anybody anytime. You know what I'm saying? Like, anything can happen,

but when you... The probability. The probability. Probability. Got it. You in Con France and you dancing around with a bunch of gazillionaires, the odds of you getting

boobopped on are way lower than you being in the middle of any urban area in America. You in Newark. Every once in a while, you drop a gem. Look at you with that West Indian knowledge. Prevention is better than the cure.

Look at you. Thank you. Gotcha. Oh, you was on that doctor Reddit, huh? What? On that doctor Reddit. Strike two coming. I missed you, yo.

No, you're at the Nick game don't do that you're at the Nick game and you're gonna apologize to us Game is you gotta pop apologize to us. That shit was lit. And you're going to apologize. And you're going to apologize. And he had good seats in the Knicks. How's your show, Knick game? You got to apologize.

I'm stopping it. And the Garden, the playoffs is special, yo. You get a couple hot dogs, it's the same as that Usher ticket. You know, he love candy and cotton candy

going to cost you. You see how he tried to avoid apologizing to the Knicks It's alright We gonna get to that What we on just now We still talking about the fight Is it my imagination or was there like A really short duration of time between Tank's Fight and like his last fight

It was like January 7th right Is that normal Yeah in the that, is that normal? Yeah, in the D.C., the D.C. shit. Is that normal? Like it's like three, four months. It depends on who you are. Don't they usually take like- Mike Tyson used to be fighting every two months.

I think the fight in D.C. was for me to warm up and prepare for this. They do warm up and shit, but yeah. Shout out to Tank. Got that money talks. Yeah. Money talks. You know, like it's just a wonderful story, man. Just a wonderful story looking at Tank and doing money talks. Yeah. Money talks. You know, like, it's just a wonderful story, man.

Just a wonderful story, looking at Tank and doing his thing. And, you know, people think that, you know, because he's not, may not be the best talk and stuff like that, but he shows his action. And he'll put you on your ass. Shout out to my man, Tank, for real. That man is valuable. Super valuable. That man is valuable.

He the biggest face in boxing right now. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, yo, man. They laughed at Oscar De La Hoya. Oscar, Oscar. Laughing at the nigga while he's walking out looking stupid. Oscar used to get in the mirror and hit his doggy, boy. He mad now. He go to the doggy to walk. Oscar got that money. My nigga Oscar used to go up in that other dresser. You remember that shit? No, he was wearing some. Sorry, right? All right, all right.

He had some of that shit on. He still had some sheer on. He did. Wait, still? What? He was wearing the leggings up top. Oh, he in his groove. Hold on, what are those?

Yes. He likes effeminate clothing. Come on, come on. We don't do this well. No. I know. And it's always don't do this well. Yeah. I know. He was like, wait, what you mean? Let the bus pass then, because I'm

going to jump on the bus with my man. I know, you always, but you don't have to do that. All right, so let it pass. Let's pass it. Oscar going with both drawers. Yeah. Oh. If he elaborate, I'm violating with him.

His swipe is flamboyant. Don't stop. Yo, Oscar. He likes a little chiffon. No, stop. Oh, shit. Sorry. Sorry.

Sorry. Sorry. Nigga, there's Power Ranger glasses on. You don't know how to act. We heard y'all. Only one of y'all niggas get a pass from me. Hey, if any of y'all, this ain't a hat. If any of y'all out this ain't a hat, if any of y'all out there

could find these shits, they flipping for like double and triple on the aftermarket and the internet say they sold out everywhere. So if you get your hands on something,

it's a quick flip. Quick flip. I'm going to put you on now. What's the name of it? You can tell us. The name of the glasses? Well, the real name is Low A,

but black people call it Lo. Yeah. No. It's a shame. Money shit. Black people, that's a whole E right before the W. E.

And after. Where do we get Lo from? It could be silent like LaSalle. We stupid as hell. We are so stupid. Movie theater, the hotel. It's Lo, nigga. Come on.

What else is important Nigga they got rid of Don Lennon Lemon And Lennon Yeah Oh shit Yo

They got rid of him Tucker Carlson Out of here I was looking up That whole shit We know They both surprised Like oh nigga

Fuck out of here You go on And I want to ask a question Cause I Fox Cause they said Tucker Was big at Fox, right? He was the biggest prime time. But he wasn't number one. But he was big.

No, he was number one. No, he wasn't number one. Fox, he was probably number one. Who was number one? They said another show called Fiverr or something, Five, something. Who said that? Reddit. Not Reddit.

Hell no. As far as ratings, he was number three. But who said this? Niggas? No, the news. Somebody in the news. I'm going to find it. I'm going to find it.

I forgot. I forgot. That's why I love podcasts. Don't touch me. Don't touch me. Now you're trying to play me. No, I wasn't. I wasn't.

I was going to say it. I was just going to say it. Put it on there. But listen, I'm going to ask a question. Go. The news. Put it on there. But listen, I want to ask a question. Go. Let me ask a question. Go ahead. Go ahead.

So Fox showed me that even if Tucker Carlson is big, that no one is bigger than the brand, right? So I want to ask, like, as far as team's concerned, would you say Jordan was bigger than the Bulls? You know what I'm saying? Bigger than the brand? Yeah, bigger than the brand. Was was bigger than the Bulls you know I'm saying bigger than the brand yeah bigger than the brand was Jordan bigger than the team because Fox I guess like at one point who was bigger than the team if niggas is getting rid of niggas and not caring well there's more to why Tucker Carlson was was released we know that we know that but it's still in my mind

it's like you can't compare the two yeah it, it's not comparable because, like, Tucker Carlson, his tweets, or, like, his texts came out, and he was calling Trump's lawyer, Sydney... I forget what her last name is. A fucking bitch. See you next Tuesday. Like, all these disparaging names, but then he was about to interview her.

That, in addition to all of the misinformation about the election and stuff like that and the you know Fox got hit for $787 million to the company that made the election machines. Yeah the election machines.

Dominions. Dominions. Tucker Carlson don't generate revenue. What? I'm pretty sure't generate revenue. What? I'm pretty sure he generates revenue. What are you talking about? Michael Jordan is a cash cow. How do you say Tucker Carlson was not generating revenue?

What are you talking about? We're about to do it. We're here. You did it. You did it, man. You a hater, son. You came in and was like, fuck you. For you to be bigger than the organization.

Advertisers. Wait, hold up. What'd you say, Ish? I want to hear what you're saying. Okay. For you to be bigger than the organization, the revenue stream has to be undeniable. So in Michael Jordan's case, Michael Jordan, take a Michael Jordan-less Bulls, a Michael Jordan-less Illinois. Fuck the Bulls.

The state of Illinois, Michael Jordan is generating revenue for. Illinois. Fuck the Bulls. The state of Illinois Michael Jordan is generating revenue for. Tucker Carlson is not generating the revenue to the point where Fox can not not have him be there. True. Their rhetoric is going to still be their rhetoric. They're going to change and put another anchorman

there that's going to start spewing the same exact shit and it's going to still not miss a beat. We've seen it because that's how they got rid of Bill O'Reilly. Exactly. Take Michael Jordan away from the Bulls. The state of Illinois's economy suffers. But didn't you just say that the two things aren't, you can't compare the two things? He did.

I did. I said that Tucker Carlson. He said why you can't compare them. That's what I'm telling you, why you can't compare them. Michael Jordan being bigger than the Bulls is based on revenue. Michael Jordan is a cash cow that the Bulls cannot do without. Tucker Carlson is somebody that Fox 5 is could not do without. Tucker Carlson is somebody that Fox 5 is going to do without.

We're going to see. True. And that's the comparison I made in my mind. Like, they were, when I was listening and doing my research, they were bigging up.

Yo, you going to let him talk to you like that? Yo, nigga, hold on. She's about to get the shit on. Yo, this guy, yo. They were bigging up Tucker Carlson

and saying how good he was and other media was saying that he's him or whatever. But I'm like, damn, Fox just got rid of him like he's nothing and they stand on it. But was there ever a point

where the person was bigger than the organization? Where we cannot get rid of him because we're going to, we'll put up with all the bullshit. And that's what I was thinking in my mind. Then I came to sports.

I said, I don't think Jordan. I think Jordan was bigger than the Bulls himself. I would agree. I don't know football, but they said Peyton Manning and Broncos and some shit like that I read. But doesn't that have an expiration date? Absolutely. Where you're no longer valuable. Where you're no longer filling the seats.

And we can't monetize you in the fashion that we once could. Then you become expendable. Right. Until then, you bigger than the organization. It's not a lot of them. Like, Michael Jordan is an outlier. It hasn't been that many people that you could place in the same realm as Michael Jordan. When you are bigger than the organization, it should happen.

They go the extra mile to either clean it up. True, true. They make sure that you say, like, hey, look, Jordan, prime example. People say that little... The gambling shit. Yeah, people say that little... They hit it for a long time.

They hit it. Hey, you got to take this suspension. Alcoholism. This is a rumor. We don't know for sure, but yo, you got to take this suspension, but we're going to say you retire, you go play ball,

come back in a couple years. Because we need you. We can't know for sure, but yo, you got to take the suspension, but we're going to say you retire, you go play ball, come back in a couple years. Because we need you. We can't tarnish your name because you're that valuable to us. Except Michael Jordan was coming to the games. All right, all right. You did it. Trump, Trump. Do you disagree with that, though?

I don't think Tucker Carlson was Michael Jordan anyway. No. Not at all. I wanted to ask Melissa, so you cool now? What do you think? I mean, they make, stop instigating. Yo, stop. They spanked your little boy.

No, she didn't. She didn't. Stop instigating, yo. She's about to say I'm a new one over there. And then Melissa always, I'm going to fuck y'all up. Don't do that. It's like when the King Corso is in. He's like, come here, little dude.

Cute little. Come here, little girl. I know you think you mean. You good. You stupid, yo. Melissa, pipe right down. How know you think you're mean, but you good. You're stupid, yo. Melissa, pipe right down. How much I got to do for you to pipe down?

I like that. Anyway, what's up? Do anybody feel bad for Don Lemon? Yo, y'all took drunk Don Lemon on New Year's Eve from me.

So we never kick his back in? Huh? We never kick him while he's down? Don Lemon on New Year's Eve from me. Wait, hold on. So we never kick his back in? Huh? We never kick him while he's down? No. You riding with him? Oh, wait. Then y'all let me clear off. So y'all do what y'all want.

But I have an important conversation that needs to be had. I'm with you. No, I just want to see where you're going with this. You see, because you. I'm going to laugh and joke along the way. But this is. Don Lemon on. This is.

Mon, you. They're changing. Yeah. I'm. And I don't want to they're changing I'm I don't know what to say wait I'm

watching got it I'm looking so you think they changed it because of what because he stood with black people

and like what do you think they're changing it for because he was too left changing what no like you said they're changing things

they removed him oh no y'all took drunk Don Lemon on New Year's Eve away from me if I'm being selfish and self-centeredness is at the core of my disease. Now, he might go somewhere where he can get drunker, though. Where? Don Lemon. Maybe E?

Don Lemon will not be short of job opportunities. Rick Ross has reached out. Tasha Kay has reached out. Different people are reaching out. But stop, because 17 years on the job, if there's one person here who thought that they had some type of stability and job security, it's Don Lemon.

True. I mean, Lennon. Lemon. Lemon. Whatever the fuck this nigga's name is. I don't watch none of that shit. I see him on New Year's Eve drunk

and when Twitter showed me what this nigga doing. When Ian's his next door. Yeah, yeah. When what? When Ian's his next door. Yeah, when Ian got this nigga fired. So I'm going out there

with all this bullshit. But anyway, 17 years somewhere. True. And y'all are, you can let me go. I have watched y'all send Don what, lemon.

Lemon. Is it lemon? Lemon, like the fruit. I have watched y'all send Don Lemon to every war in Iraq. They sent him to the riots up there where niggas was wild. He was like, Don Lemon here for CNN. I'm getting my shit off these wild.

He was getting mushed in the head. He was kicking that nigga in the knee, doing all types of shit. Y'all got rid of that that don i don't know what anyone's personal opinion of him is because i don't check them yeah true i'm only talking about job security and now the biggest companies and corporations in the world seeing what us on the ground level down here have seen for quite some time. I've been saying for 10 years, hey, some of them out there. All of these is. And yeah, now, if I make multi millions with you and you want to distance yourself from me because somebody said something, well, then you have that right.

But I have rights too. And just from Don Lemon's release, pull it up, I'll pull it up. You can tell that he's preparing for war. Just the manner in which... They went and got the same lawyer war. Just the manner in which. They went and got the same lawyer. Dog, the manner in which they fired him. Like, fam, y'all ain't bring me into office.

Y'all ain't even give me a cardboard box. Let me tell you something. If I work somewhere for 17 years, somebody better come look me in the eye and tell me I'm out of here and hold the door for me or some shit. Shit, that's what you think. Yeah, shit. Well, that's what you would like. You would like a conversation, a handshake, a hug, yo, good looking out.

Y'all ain't work corporate. Don't give a fuck. You think that CEO gonna give a fuck about lemon, lime, nigga? Don Lemon says, I was informed this morning by my agent that I had been terminated by CNN. I am stunned. After 17 years at CNN,

I would have thought that someone in management would have had the decency to tell me directly. At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I have loved at the network. It is clear that there are some larger issues at play. So you better learn how to understand this lawyer talk. The words.

With that said, I want to thank my colleagues and the many teams I have worked with for an incredible run. They are the most talented journalists in the business and I wish them all the best. Shortly after this, the Cuomo brother came out and said, hey, that's fucked up what they doing to my man. Y'all know that was his man. During the pandemic, Don and Chris had them rocking.

They did. They did. They held it down. So now he's speaking up. They let him go, too. And he said, I can't divulge too much because of some shit. So now we hear there was another report saying Disney would love to distance themselves from Jonathan Majors. But they fear potential backlash because what?

No, they fear being sued. Well, that's what I'm saying. That's the backlash. That's the backlash. Like, yeah. Companies now, now it ain't just we in the court of public opinion and we say some shit and I'm going to lose millions of dollars. What we just say happened to Michael Irvin.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. It's the... We are at that stalemate now where it's been long enough and it's at the top of the food chain now. And we're going to see how it plays out. And none of you are exempt.

Nobody's nobody is exempt. You could be somewhere that long and they could tell you, get your black ass out of here. No, no. Just leave your key card right there. No, no, no, no, no. It's deactivated anyway. Keep the key card. It don't work.

Stay home. Don't even get in your car. Security's got a box for you. You can just meet them by the elevator with all your belongings. Thank you for your service. elevator with all your belongings. Thank you for your service. I want to know why a lot of the times

I'm quick with the no to a deal. I say no. Nope. I look for a reason to say no. Man, come on, tell me what they said. What they said in that call. Come on, give it to me. They didn't say nothing else? That's all they got? Come on, give me

some reason to say no. But it ain't because we can't come to a deal some type of way. At some point, we could figure out how to do a deal. But the truth of the matter is, I don't ever want to be in that position where somebody could up or downroot my entire existence. And then I'm flat on my ass after 17 years of blood, sweat and tears at your company. Suck a frank. Who the fuck are y'all dealing with? Now, let's connect this. I say all the time up here that I don't do ads. I'm really dog whistling, saying I'm a man of the people and I'm going to say what the fuck I want to say. And I'm going to find the brands that align with that. I will not be a slave, right?

To advertisers. Hey, numbers are talking right now. Like, so these companies that are public companies ran by advertising dollars. You may have been a girl girl Boy Scout your whole life. But when that one story come, we have to do what the companies have to do, which is distance ourselves from you. So, yeah, that's why everybody around here is a liar. In case you were confused. around here is a liar in case you were confused.

Everybody around here is lying because everybody's doing the ad dollar thing. They let go of Tucker Carlson and Donald. On the same day. That's two monsters. Yeah. At the two

warring networks. So the news development is that they both hired the same lawyer his name is brian friedman and this guy is apparently like the go-to lawyer for all media personalities who have been ousted by networks so like he did megan kelly's exit deal um he's worked with like quentin tarantino he's worked with like a bunch of big celebs but like the fact that he's handling Chris Cuomo that's why Chris Cuomo can't really say much of anything other than I stand with Don Lemon

and same shit happened to me but you know not giving any details because they both have retained the same lawyer settlement huge huge they look at it and they'll pay it settlement huge huge huge

when they look at it they'll pay it of course they will you know what I'm saying it's settlement versus losing these ad dollars but what's crazy

is the reason why they're saying Don Lemon was ousted you know what I mean what was the reason I didn't even see a reason by the month ago we were talking about it

on the pod when he made those comments about a woman being in her prime about Nikki Nikki Haley, who was going for the Republican nomination and how he started talking about basically it was because she'd made a comment that anybody over a certain age running for president has to go for competency kind of hearings and that sort of thing, which there's nothing wrong with that considering who the hell's been in office the last two terms. And then he made the comment about her being a woman past her prime, etc., etc. So that was a lot of blowback. I think that he had to issue a public apology.

Maybe there was a minor suspension or something like that. But that was like a month, month and a half ago. But that's the only thing that I could find when I was doing digging. There's reports of a few interviews. There's a lot of shade. There digging reports of a few but no but since since since yeah they say it have him undivided yeah but since then they've said they've started to say the whole you know uh rhetoric of he was difficult to work with he dated interns and underlings unabashedly and just he was he was out of fight he was he was out of fun. He was drunk Don Lemon all the time.

57 years old, but you know. And this is at the same time that Elon Musk is doing his no censorship, no shadow ban, deaded all the advertisers to make y'all pay so that you can have free speech. True. There are advertisement fights happening

with the biggest people in the world right now. Where do you stand? Oh, you see where I stand. You either create change or be a slave to the structure. That's where I stand change gonna come we we have hinted around some things lightheartedly over the last few months it's 2023 we getting close to 2024 niggas is setting up for 2035 and 2040 now and I think we're gonna see the brand difference in 2020 2021 I was

like I wonder when we're gonna feel the difference from this last decade with all the take care big Sean shit to now and the tech craze and all of this and now yeah quick and I don't want to see happening past fast as shit I don't want to be fired it don't feel good let. Fast as shit. I don't want to be fired. It don't feel good. Let me tell you something. Being fired don't feel good. Complex let me go while I had a baby coming. Because I thought that shit was all cold.

Now that it's over, I ain't going to lie. Woo. When you got to go home and... Don't worry, baby. And you ain't got a clue. Figure it out. Can't find you?'t got a clue. Figure it out. He fires you? He fires you? He fires you?

He fires you? He fires you? He fires you? He fires you? He fires you? He fires you? Yeah, we're going to start talking about some real nigga shit. Yeah, when you ain't got a clue, but you just got to look like you're holding it down?

For your pregnant girl, because the stress and the hormones. He can't show it on your face, none of that. I ain't know he fires you. With a baby on the way. Not fire, but just not pick up the next term of the contract. So we both, we just finished contract and we were not negotiated.

So anyway, that's where I stand. You see it? Anywhere you look with me, I think you can see where I stand, where I have always stood since day one in this I just got there different the same shit happened with

um the ABC Amy and was the other dude's name to the two that were having the affair yeah exactly the pressure to get rid of them was all because of like the concept of like you know morality and whatnot advertisers didn't understand that one advertisers did not like the fact that they were flaunting their affair that they were both but that they were both married um and that they were flaunting their affair but the reason why i don't like that one is because they did turn, like, niggas wouldn't tune in after that. That's true. That's never watched.

Yeah. So now your ratings actually are up. And what these companies have showed us is, hey, as long as the rating's up, we'll tolerate the bullshit. Right. So that one I didn't get. Like, nigga, this is working in y'all favor.

Yeah. And y'all still fired them. They wanted to be the moral police. Man, they don't give a fuck About morals With a couple of dollars I know what I'm saying I agree

The morality clause Is always really weird Because it's always It's so Vague And the goalpost Can be moved at any time By whoever says

You know That's the Republican Party Amen and hallelujah That's what the show Right on Let's go Amen and hallelujah that's a show right on amen and huh fuck yeah those motherfuckers fuck yeah teach those mother cock fuckers a lesson

i was a little boy my mama told me she said son one day god gonna give you a big house up on the hill when you get up there you got to tell somebody else how house up on the hill. When you get up there, you got to tell somebody else how to get on the hill. But I've always kept that because there's room at the top. Yes, cause the top ain't crowded. If you go the extra mile, it's free. You can do donuts, you can flip your car over, ain't nobody gonna hit you.

It's room at the top, but we have an obligation as brothers to show each other how to get there. See, I ain't got to worry about you taking my market share because what's for me is for me. Why I'm worrying about it? That's what people get wrong. People think if they blow out your candle, it'll make their candle brighter. No, your candle's still a little flicker. Your punk. I don't know how you think. Instead of being blew my candle out, you think your candle fitting to be. That same flicker you've been having because you're trying to blow my candle out. you think your candle fitting to be burned? That same punk ass flicker you been having because you trying to blow my candle out.

That ain't how it work. You need more candles, man. And so my thing has always been to uplift, to teach people the way it's done. Show them how to do it.

So you're not concerned because there are a lot of people like, okay, I got a big house, but I don't want you in my neighborhood. You get a big house somewhere else.

And maybe as long as it's not as big as mine, you don't care. You can put a bigger house right next door to mine. What that to do with me i can't sleep in all these rooms i got now what i care if your house is bigger than my house what i care if you got more cars than me i like my car now you guys thousand percent yeah wallow is the highest paid black podcasters in the game. That's not what the list says. Don't bring that up.

Don't bring that stupid shit up. Don't worry about the list. Don't worry about the list. He sold our paperwork. Me neither. And we own everything. And we own everything. Be happy.

I'm just saying, you see where we walked away from. You see where we walked away from You see where we walked away from That was close That was close I heard that from a white person Before I heard that from Gilead Waller That same thing I heard me and an agent was talking

And they was telling me where y'all was walking away from Say what that number was No I ain't doing that But Gilead Waller Was doing very well They were telling me which I was walking away from. Wait, say what that number was. No, I ain't doing that. I ain't doing that. Oh, yeah. They don't even know. But Gileo Waller was doing very well. They doing okay. I'm playing with us.

Don't fucking play with us, nigga. And I love it, man. Sense a little bit of hate in that clip? Don't want my hat on. I don't want my look to, my fit to look on YouTube. Oh. God just always

won't. So I'm going gonna ask my cast now cause y'all know with me I have two you know how Kevin Gates got two phones I got two voices now

we could be mature about this or we could are you loading up you loading up this automatic shit all right so let me have a little fun with this okay what does this clip have to do with Joe button I don't know the list you tell us does this clip have anything to do with me? Am I just inserting myself in business that has nothing to do with me? Baby, these were four broadcasters just having a conversation that don't pertain to you.

You can't center yourself if it's not about you. So I don't want this to be one of those moments. Well, let me ask you a question. Yeah, you do it. Let me turn this down. Do you think it was about you? I mean, I got tagged in that shit about 10, 15 times yesterday. So I'm pretty sure that you're not the only one that might think that it's about you.

Which voice is talking to you the loudest? It's always the bad one. Yeah, it's always the bad one. It's always this one? Yeah. No, I think both can. I think we can do both. Black people are so multifaceted.

Like, we can be positive and something else. So, convince me that this is about me. I do feel half. I'm half and half. I think it's about you. nothing in this clip said that this was about me it was another clip that was talking about once niggas start to my ad dad who take ads and once a week twice a week once niggas start getting into that type of talk oh well I could I could personalize it yeah yeah you we said any company that don't take ads got to shut the fuck up in so many words.

Oh, and he said, and we only do once a week. He's going to shit off. Well, I think podcasters should be able to get their shit off. I think black businessmen in the whole need to be able to get their shit off. I think that I think it's bad that we in a space that we always got to be pit against each other. And I think that it's kind of bad that it took. And this is my personal opinion. It's not even for you.

I think it's bad that some other people instigated it. You know what I mean? A potential situation. I think that's corny to me. Like it was some instigating shit going on in that. And I think that's why. Who instigated what? Like they like, yo, that ain't what the list said. You know what I'm saying? Like that's instigating shit going on in that and I think that's what who instigated what? Like they like yo day and with the list said, okay, you know I'm saying like that's instigating shit now

I'm trying to give you a battery in your back to say fuck that list We doing XYZ fuck that you know what I'm saying? Like I don't like that Amongst among successful black people. I think that's corny and I think that's what? Flip how you want me to handle this man? It's put on his mature voice. How you want me to handle this, man? Ish put on his mature voice. How you want me to handle it? I want you to handle it the way we usually handle it, COE.

Only one nigga safe. COE, what we doing? Oh, so these are the two voices that be on your shoulder. That's it right there. Handle it how you feel, man. They said, fuck the list. How do you feel about that?

Break it down. I mean, you have, since I've been on this pod you have expressed as far you don't use ads we don't have to you don't have to use ads up here like

your self run ran however that is nigga I'm not here to articulate I'm here to hype my man to go in so I can come from behind pause

with the bazooka and blow up the whole shebang what are we doing you have talked about ad revenue that you don't, you ain't fucking with ads. So that part could have been at you because they could have felt the way

when you say, I don't fuck with ads, these niggas be fucking with ads, I know what they get, I know these niggas' contracts. You be going in when you're on your rents. You talking about

you know niggas' contracts and what they're making with ads and niggas be inflating numbers. I be talking that talk. You said niggas was inflating numbers at one point. No, I be talking that talk. I know they're real contracts. Streaming farms.

I think companies have hired third-party streaming farms. That's a fact. That's a fact. Streaming farms. Yeah, you think they just exist in music? Anything that can stream, there's a streaming farm for it. Yeah. I mean, okay, what is, I don't.

What a streaming farm is? You know. I mean, okay, what is, I don't. What a streaming farm is? You know what that is, right? Yes. So anything that's, nigga, you could be streaming a video somewhere. You could engage the streaming farm to boost your numbers up. And niggas are doing it.

Forum. So that's like the. Farm. Farm. Farm. Okay, that's like McDonald's. So that's like back in the days, the refresher app.

When you put it on the, you know what I'm talking about. The refresher app When you put it on You know what I'm talking about The refresher app to get the views It automatically refreshes Refreshes, refreshes, refreshes That's what niggas is doing But they're doing it differently Nah, they doing it where

It's called a farm because Farm because it's Fifteen phones Fifteen hundred phones In one room No, no, no Fifteen hundred phones in one room And it just keep playing

It's playing whatever it is That programming the play Running up the news So niggas buying views 1,500 phones in one room and to just keep playing. Just playing whatever it is that you're programmed to play. So you're little niggas buying views? Yeah, but I don't think that's too important here, right? I do. I think all of the top podcasters by now have figured out their business model and how they want to go about things. But I think off of our Don Lemon conversation that this is very important, right?

about things, but I think off of our Don Lemon conversation that this is very important, right? Because you asked me where I stand, and where I stand is create the change that you would like to see, or be stuck as a slave to the system, and for me, that system has always looked like, I think, I think your men, your men, I think the Charlamagne comes from that system. iHeart is that system. Radio, right, is that kind of dinosauric, just old white views that's fronting to have posts on culture to sell ads. Like, that's how I view that. But he brought that up. Like, that's how I view that.

But he brought that up. Like, I have nothing to say about this because he kind of introduced that while they were on this show. And I think he introduced that because he's a slimy little piece of shit. And he was trying to gear a conversation to go somewhere. And I don't think that Gillian Wallow took the bait. I think they big up themselves. I think they big up each other and they should be able to do that. But the important part that I want to focus on is that it's that little dinosauric, old age, never kind of got it out the nigga, that came in there and did that.

He did that. One person. The real conversation here that should be being had is, like I said, all of these black media people that are able to have these multimillion dollar conversations. That's a cause to celebrate. I don't want this short little fuck face to misconstrue that for the real niggas out here. That's cause for a toast in the air, like the, what was that, the 100 Hustler video where everybody come out?

That's cause for constant big big ups how do you not root for that like that's where it's confusing if you know wallow's story 20 years in came home and outworked 97 of y'all still is doing it how do you say look at that guy and say I don't want him to how do you look at him and say he don't deserve that it's weird my first apartment that I bought off stolen laptops from the Wiz we I had my baby mom's move in I decked DVD players, couches, everywhere. I was a synth from young. Right? You are who you are. But in that crib was where I first seen the major figures. Doom, doom, doom.

Doom, doom, doom. That video was out a lot. Major figures. Yeah, that's us. Gillian, them word up here. What's up? Some Philly niggas. They down there. They moving. They getting in.

Them niggas is talking. They coming. This is in the 90s. I was still. So how do you look at that and say that person don't deserve it? Everywhere Gilly go, his wife is. How do you watch it and say, how do you not clap for that why would Charlamagne going in and trying to be reductive oh shit what'd you say

reductive reductive I like that word it's so fitting for where I'm going these niggas always submitting me into the dick off. I'd be somewhere minding my business and y'all take my dick and throw it on the table and just throw it on the table. But you were like, I was using that. Can't say what you're talking about me.

But wait, everybody, am I missing? I get confused and I need help from my brothers and my friends. Everybody is on the clip celebrating. They celebrating walking away from $20 million. And I know how that feels. It should be celebrated. But am I missing something? Because the narrative didn't go this way when I walked away from $20 million.

Wait, you mean to tell me they walked away from 20 million dollars and gasp got an even better situation that's possible for black men nobody said that was possible for black men when it was happening to me I just want to highlight how some of these narratives change. But that's not where my anger comes from. First of all, let's all take a moment here to give a round of applause to Gillian Waller. We did it the first time, like you said. I want to do it every time.

No doubt. I want to never leave doubt. The same way Nori come in here and give it up for me, I do it over there. I want to never leave doubt the same way Nori come in here and give it up for me. I do it over there. I want to never leave doubt for anybody out there that watch us and try to, you know, emulate some of that shit. That it's all peace at the top, because like I said on Drink Champs, when everybody's up. It's not too much to fight about. But that's not where my anger comes from. That's not where my sadness comes from right now today. Oh my. All of these years, I've been looking at Charlamagne and I like Magneto and Professor X that just have some of the same views,

but different ways of getting their different ideologies. And I always thought that he was like that second tier right under me. I always thought that right after me was him because the optics made it look like that. But then him and Envy went up there looking doofy and goofy and they just sucked so much dick that I had they suck Charlemagne was looking up to Gillian Wallow and all it was like a light illuminating from them and he said day of the highest and it hit me and i got sad it killed a little piece of me to know holy shit charlemagne is saying that gillian wallow make more than him

oh you mean to tell... self. I said to myself... Self? Self. No way. Not with a late night show. Envy just told me about a podcast network.

You just had your podcast fest. You did like a festival of sorts, something, something a majigga you did. Up there in Atlanta on fight weekend. Didn't sound bright. Didn't hear much about it. But I saw you had just hilarious and you know i know how much i make for my part i just always assume it hit me like a ton of bricks i said charlamagne don't have 30 million dollars wait you not in the you didn't go home to get your big brother to come fight the fight for you because you didn't have enough money.

Wait, that's why we are celebrating and you are hating. Sometimes you give information about yourself without you knowing you did. So my question to Indy and Charlamagne is. Instead of telling me how much these two niggas make tell me about what y'all make I think I got both of you niggas beat by laps tie them up together

like the number 11 I think I got you even though I'm only paid about $21,000 a year. According to Earth. According to everything. Everything. 25 sometimes on a good year.

Yo, no, I'm serious. I didn't want Magneto to die. It's not a race anymore. He should have been bumped down a few more slots in the list if he not at the God. And he would have gotten away with it too. If it wasn't for those meddling fucking kids. Now to the other notion of highest paid podcasters. Well, how do you know?

Clearly, I think I've done a masterful job hiding the accounting. Y'all funny. Come on. Come on. Come on. I'm just saying, how do you know? Now, if you niggas are over there trying to come up with a new list of highest paid, count me in. I'm coming.

Whatever metric we're using to do this. I'm there. We can keep it a secret. We can not tell nobody. What? I'm there. We can keep it a secret. We can not tell nobody. What? I'm down for that. No, you're not. Shit.

All right. If we putting a new list together, y'all can't assume where people are on the list. If we put a new list together, I want to come. I'm coming. I'm at the top of that one too.

Do you think that people get offended like I said earlier? When you talk about you know how much niggas is making, that could ruffle feathers. That's a thing that you go, I know how much you niggas is making. You say that a lot. Well, I'm wrong because I thought that Charlamagne had 30

million dollars. Or 20 million dollars. He might not have no million dollars or 20 million dollars he might not have no e million dollars he might have no e might be i mean i don't want to be many million like many would you answer this question um and i know i don't want to take this to another down another whole pause but where that shit derived from with you and this nigga i don't i don't get it like it's like where does that issue the right the underlying issue derived from with you and him like if he's been on for a while and then you know i'm saying you've been doing what you're doing does the competitiveness come from compassion it's no competitive. Let me mute this PC shit,

y'all. No, no, where does it derive from? Check this out. As a podcaster, you niggas out there better watch how the conversation goes

when it look like it's shifting my way. I'm not ducking no smoke. No, you just duck smoke. Fuck all this PC shit. You just duck smoke. Fuck all this happy to be and shit y'all want me on.

You just duck smoke. I'm going to tell you why. You duck smoke because you don't want to answer, nigga. You don't want to answer where it derived from. What happened, nigga? Because if he was up before you and then you mad at him, did he not give you an opportunity? No, you're missing it. I'm just asking.

You're missing it. You my man. I'm standing with you, but I want to know. I'm confused. But the important thing here is what I've said, which is you got to just dead certain narratives before they take off. Whatever existed, whatever like hateful shit, who cares? Today, there is a small window for entrepreneurs and people sitting at home to create the change that they want to be. Got it.

Wild shit is happening in front of them. That's the focus. they want to be. Got it. While shit is happening in front of them. That's the focus. It's not him. We celebrating Gilly Wallow, me, Nori, you, you, you, you, you, math. We celebrate. There is no time for none of that other shit that niggas is on. Maybe back, maybe before. See, you got to understand.

Maybe before when, you know know that crab's in the bucket oh shit crab's not supposed to be in that bucket maybe it was a little bit of that where you fight because everybody's trying to get to the top and you fight

and hey fuck that nigga and opportunities and maybe some of that exists but today in 2023 everybody the cream should have risen there is no need

to hate anybody if you're not trying to tell if you're not trying to tell, if you're not trying to hand out the information or help, not just look like it, but really some life-changing generational wealth in best, best, sorry, type shit, then move. It's a distraction. I told y'all my plan is 50 years old. I got a plan. I don't have time. This is the highest pay. Well, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Y'all can't be talking to me because I'm not paid by nobody.

It's the other thing. It's just words. I know. Y'all are right. Highest paid by whoever be. I don't. You feel me? You figure it out?

I'm not. It's. Got it. Okay. So, yeah, I don't. I'm not sure that they was talking to me. I hope they wasn't talking to me. Now, we pour out some Hennessy for Charlamagne

because he ain't got no millions. Hold on for a second. Nigga told on himself. That is... Honestly, though, hey, show them they called me, man. You did all of the 10 years best morning show, all of the best viral moment

interview, Ray J. Feminine, and you, and they make more... Create the fucking change or you will be a slave to that infrastructure. It's just my very consistent point. That's crazy.

I think we had a full circle. Okay. I think we had a full circle. How we came in, we talked about how the Atlanta look is different. The Atlanta look is different because they all complement each other and they all be working as a unit. Yeah, they not doing this. The New York rap scene New York hip-hop scene we was always dog eat dog always competing always going at each other's necks um whether covertly or overtly and you see the difference between Atlanta scene and here yeah I don't want to say I no longer want

to contribute to the same exact we often We often talk about changing generational curses and cycles in our families. But the truth of the matter, after the Usher show and I'm looking at them and landing on the U.S. We could create the generational change just outward, too. We ain't got to participate in that shit. You want niggas that's 30, 40, 50, however many M's up the beef? Why? Because you broken back dark skin again? Don't be a colorist.

He the nigga that was bleaching up. Stop. You niggas, I'm not ducking no smoke. You niggas going to stop playing with me this year. I know that's y'all.

I'm sorry. All right. What are you watching me for? Highest paid. What are you watching me for highest paid what are you watching me for you motherfuckers stop trying to go viral yo stop saying shit

that might make me mad yo honestly y'all do y'all parts go ahead yo and congrats to the niggas that got it damn

Charlamagne I'm sad that hurt that means Charlamagne doing I'm sad. That hurt. That means Charlamagne doing worse than all of us. Act. Blag me. Math. Look at this.

Adam. Niggas, it's not. Let me stop throwing mud on niggas. Ego. Nah, let me stop throwing mud on niggas. Here it goes! Talk to him now. Pour a little Duce out for the little ball, nigga. Mic check, mic check. One, two, one, two, one, two, one, two. This is for my homies This is for my homies And I was outside for this

And I'll see you when I get there In that gangsta lane In that gangsta lane It's you I could get going that was me putting a little that was me being restrained that was me that was me that was me that was exercising see look growth look at that I'm trying to be somebody different I'm trying to change be the change that you want to see there you go I'm proud of you little fuck ass man play with me damn never right there just that quick anyway uh what else is happening in the world? We didn't talk anything about sports.

I was going to say. Ish, right this second. Go. Right to you. You were at the Knicks game. I was. Hell of a game. After all the horrible things that you've said about them, it's fine. I was there rooting for Cleveland, Aki.

Oh, shit. It's cool. But you were on New York parquet. I was. They asked you about your rooting interests. Oh, okay. It's cool. But you were on New York parquet. I was. They asked you about your rooting interests. Oh, okay. Talked about where you was. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You rooted against the Knicks? He been Cleveland? He's from Cleveland. You don't see he got a little Ohioan in him? What are we talking about? The Knicks-Cleveland series. I think that Cleveland is soft. I think they're talented.

We only needed to hear an apology from you. Yeah. We're not looking for your end game analysis. You failed us. You have failed us in that regard early on. And just that fast, it's 3-1. You know what's funny with everybody? New York won the first game.

Mm-hmm. All right? Yo, works bomb, motherfucker. You better take all that everybody? New York won the first game. Mm-hmm. Yo, where was Bone, motherfucker? You better take all that shit back. You don't know shit. Got smacked game two. New York got smacked game two. Smacked game two. You couldn't hear a mouse peeing on cotton in a church from nobody. Wow. Ish, what

are you talking about? That's really quiet. Ish, you weren't here. The away team needs to steal a game at home. I think most savvy sports fans know that. Joe, please keep your semantics over there. I'm talking about a game in which the Knicks lost by 20, and all of the fucking Knicks fans got quiet and got mute. But then what happened the next game?

So then the next game, when y'all win again, now niggas want to come back out again and start rah, rah, rah, rah, rah. What the hell? Because then the next game. Yeah, what happened to the next game? Like, what's the series? Hey, stop, because you came in here on your Cleveland shit, too. No, I said-

You came in here on your Cleveland shit, too. You acting like a Knicks fan. This is a long-winded apology. I don't give a fuck about these women on the team. I ain't coming on no Cleveland shit. You did. I'm a Sixer fan. I know, but you did.

You did. I said, that boy is going to take it personal. He did. What I'm saying is this. Knicks are winning. Cleveland is... Not doing very well. Soft as cotton. And that's that.

Brunson is out there showing his ass, going left. Every fucking play, he can go left. Nobody cut his left off yet. But they just bully balling him. They just bullying Cleveland. Cleveland, they just out-gritting him and out-toughing him. Translation, I'm sorry. I'm not looking for your opinion.

I'm not sorry based on what I picked. I picked Cleveland to win the series. I think you picked them to win the East. And you said five games or something like that, too. You said five. Five, I think. So you're not going to apologize to me? Yo, men, yo. Why don't I apologize to the Knicks?

Yo, men are great. For my pick? Well, no, no, no, not for your pick. What are we talking about? For how you scoffed at me when everything that I said came true. Cleveland, one of the highest scoring teams in the league all season, held to under 100 points three games in a row by what? The fourth best defensive team in the league since All-star break i said that you laughed at me i said that we would end up out rebounding both of them big

ass bigs you didn't say all that and you're not gonna do that again to me like you did with the giants in dallas during the middle of the season i promise i said this i promise i said all of this stuff okay you said that y'all was gonna win in five games i said that donovan mitchell is jalen Brunson's son. I said all of this stuff. I said our bench is deep. Our farm system for the future. Y'all got the player, and y'all are only one spot better than him. I said all of it.

I said I got the Knicks winning easy. I did. And we're up 3-1. You fucking right. I'm coming to Baskin. Now, listen. Enough about him, because this ain't about him. My team is up, not his.

No, his team's up. His team up, too. That's the funny shit. He there rooting for fucking Cleveland. His team is up. He's just a rooterer. He just run around rooting for shit. A rooterer.

Why are you just rooting for things? Is that why you got the colors? That's what you're doing over there? Oh, come on now. You didn't pick that one yet. What doing over there you should eat oh come on now come on now what's wrong with you anyway I have the Knicks losing tonight

and I have the Knicks closing out at home Friday night the Knicks have looked phenomenal Josh Hart what a fucking pick up yeah man disappointed that Jalen didn't win most improved sure enough The Knicks have looked phenomenal. Josh Hart, what a fucking pickup. Yeah, man.

Disappointed that Jalen didn't win most improved. He shouldn't have. Why shouldn't he have? Because he kicked ass last year. Y'all forget Dallas was in the Western Conference Finals last year. I don't have to argue. I'm just disappointed. No, I'm just saying. I'm just disappointed that he didn't get it.

Now, what I will say respectfully, respectfully, as a Knick fan, watching the last game, you could clearly see that Julius Randle was body language. Everything was out of it. It looked like he was taken away from the team. Before Thibodeau pulled him, I said, I'm going to get this. I'm going to fuck on the game.

Right? So they did. They sat him. And what does the veteran coach do? Sits him down. Sits him the fuck down. So he sits him and Julia skipped the post conference interview. Oh, I didn't know that. He skipped it.

Something is going on there. What I'm saying as Knicks fans, this coupled with the bad season that he had where him and the fans got it, and coupled with the Atlanta series gets him traded this summer. I can see it. That game, that post-conference, Jalen Brunson was raised by the coach. His dad works here. I grew up here.

The Knicks have clearly handed the keys to him. And rightfully so. He earned them. And he did earn them. But we can't do nothing if Julius Randle is not the Julius Randle he's been. And if he's tight with something that's going on, I don't know. And it's his playoff ball. Anything can happen. Miami is up 3-1 against uh the bucks against the bucks we would face them next i like

our chances better than if we had to face the bucks uh we we've won against boston we've won against philly and bead is a one fall down away from sitting down for the rest of the year it could be a wacky season is all I'm saying. Congratulations to the Knicks and Knicks fans. We're really close to our first series win in 10 years and our second series win in 20 years. And we was a Roy Hibbert block away.

We was a Roy Hibbert block away. So, that's that on that. I love seeing the Knicks in the playoffs. I don't like how the Knicks are marketed. What you mean? Too white. Nah, I think they're changing playoffs. I don't like how the Knicks are marketed. What do you mean? Too white. Nah, I think they're changing it. I don't see it.

I think they're changing it. Too white. Too many white people. The celebrity role is too many just Saturday night live people. I know that's going to sound like hate, but it's the direct opposite if you look at Brooklyn. Yes. Direct opposite. And that's marketing. It's done purposely.

I think that New York is New York. I think the money and the wealth in New York is predominantly white. You about to make my sports serious. No, no, no. I'm not. I'm just saying, like, when you go to the game, dog, the stadium is 90% white in the games.

And you talking about the front row at the New York, niggas can't afford them seats. No, I'm talking about Madison Square Garden, if you look in the games. And you talking about the front row at the New York. Niggas can't afford them seats. No, I'm talking about Madison Square Garden, if you look in the audience. I think it's coming back to the Mason, gritty, Oakley mantra that has been attached to the Knicks back when they was winning. You talking about a mantra and I'm talking about marketing. Yeah, same thing. No, it's not. I get what Joe's talking about.

The optic. I agree with you on the mantra, tough defense. Yeah, I think the grittiness is coming back. Like he said, the celeb world is Saturday Night Live, folks. They can't afford the tickets. No, they don't sell the ish. Oh, they don't? They don't sell the tickets.

I'm only talking about marketing. I'm telling you something that I know. Like, for example, I'll give you an example. Nets games. They have Mando performing at halftime. Shit like that. It's things that they're doing. You know performing at the Knicks game for halftime?

No, I don't. Fat Joe and Doug E. Fresh. Oh, I stand corrected. I didn't see that. I didn't know that. But see, we in a bubble. Y'all just said two totally different things. I know y'all said two rappers, but y'all said two totally different things.

True. One had Maino, who is Maino. And one had Fat Joe, who is a media and one had Fat Joe who is a media and brand advertising darling at the moment it's different what they're doing

but anyway come on talk to me about about y'all I love all the niggas on the Grizzlies individually but I hate them

niggas as a team I'm glad y'all stomping on the niggas I think I think the lights is a little bright for them. Yeah. I think...

John's banged up too. Nah, I think that the Steven, I mean, the Adams and Clark not being there is what fucked them up. Because I think now

AD don't got to bang. True. You know what I'm saying? He don't like contact. He don't like banging. He don't like being down low. So I think we... You know what I mean?

And he playing like shit. he's still playing like shit ad is not showing up he showed up one game he's playing like dog shit bro he's had some moments though yeah one and i think if steven that block shot was a moment one and three he stunk it up two and four he showed up oh no the other way around the other way around the other way around One and three, he stunk it up. Two and four, he showed up. Oh, no. The other way around.

The other way around. Two and four, he didn't show up. One and three, he showed up. Three, he showed his ass. But I just think he just soft. He just don't want to play down low. He want to shoot jumpers. He want to play a perimeter game.

You're the best. AD is probably the most talented nigga on the court. You have to show that. Can you praise your team for a little bit? No, I'll tell the truth little bit no i'll tell you yo i tell you there's a problem anything positive yeah i can tell them i can say that who has a seven seed are kicking ass to kicking ass i think the pickups that we made in the middle of the season are way way way underrated i think that um hachimori uh uh vanderbilt and um reeve's been there.

But those two pickups are amazing. You got to thank the lucky heavens for that little Larry Bird Jr. Barry Bird. Barry Bird. That boy's tough. That's it right there. Barry Bird. That boy's tough.

No, I think that those pickups have proved amazing. You got perimeter scoring. I ain't saying nothing to say to y'all, right? No, nothing. Nothing to say. Your Boston series goals, how many games? Well, Boston has to get there,

but assuming they do. NBA stays healthy. Six. Y'all beat them in six? Yeah, I'm still rolling with sixes. I think we can get it done this year.

I like this wacky NBA playoff where the lower seeds are up 3-1 against better, what are assumed to be better teams. I do like that. I like the parody. You got any thoughts on the playoffs? Anything? Takeaways? Nah.

Nah, it's been entertaining as hell. I think the Kings and Warriors series is my favorite, but the Knicks, I'm also just rooting for the Knicks. I've been entertained. I've been entertained. That's it, man. Flip, don't get fucked, man. I don't care about this shit.

I just like seeing. I like what this means for New York. Yeah, I like watching. Me too. I love going to games. I ain't going to hold you. Even if you're not invested, if the Knicks win, New York is lit. Oh, yeah, absolutely.

And New York is very prideful in the Knicks. Don't get me wrong. New York, we've seen the split. A lot of people went Brooklyn when they came here. Them Knicks fans been waiting for something to celebrate. It felt like the Michael Joy. This shit looks. And let's be real.

A lot of Nets fans will come over. Oh, of course. Also, I'm hearing a lot of the pundits now out there say something I thought that I said is a hot take recently. But I'm hearing it's picked up steam. My man agreed with you. Jalen Brunson. My man agreed with you. Jalen Brunson. My man agreed with you. Easily.

Best Nick point guard since Walt Frazier. I'm saying that. I've never seen Walt Frazier. Best Nick point guard I have seen in my life by a lot. In terms of basketball IQ, toughness, composure, just what he's done. It don't matter who it is. He's getting to it. composure, just what he's done. It don't matter who it is. He's getting to it.

I think that's what you mean. They double teamed him. They trapped him. Got the ball out his hand. He did that without their second best, without their leading scorer on the bench. He did that with no Julius Randle. Come on, man. With my college teammate.

You know how fly that is? Yo, give me one of my niggas from back way. Give me one of my back home niggas. I'm out of here. Same thing Aaron Rodgers just said. Hey, give me Lazar. Give me one of my back home niggas. And we out. Same thing we say in a fight. Give me one nigga that's going to go with me. And we out. Go with these niggas.

That feel good, man. Listen, that shit felt like the 90s. I'm not going to hold you. The stadium was on fire. It looked like the crowds. I'm not going to hold you. And while we... The stadium was on fire. It looked like the crowd was getting closer and closer to... The niggas from my block used to, you know, go get the Jordan Knicks tickets. White people be hugging you.

Hell damn. Look, high-fiving racism going away with sports and music. That shit felt like that, yo. That shit was on fire in the building. That shit was crazy. It was dope. Like, just the feeling. That shit was on fire in the building. That shit was crazy. It was dope. Like, just the feeling, that shit was dope.

And you were rooting against the Knicks. The energy. I'm not a Jets fan, but yeah, energy. Aaron Rodgers in New York is energy, dog. It is.

It is. It's energy. Next year, about to be nice. You worried at all? Nah, not really. Well, expound. A little bit.

A little bit. Expound. Don't be too tough. Go back a little bit. Yeah, yeah. Straighten the curls out, nigga. I mean, you have really. A little bit. A little bit. Expound. Don't be too tough. Straighten the curls out, nigga. You have to be a little bit concerned about him being in the division, obviously, but I think that the Jets have a lot to prove. They were a 7-10 team last year. The year before that, they maybe won, what, four or five games?

I think they're young and talented, but I need to see it over a couple years before I'm like... All the pundits, granted, are mostly New York media-based, and they're like, yo, this Jets team is one player away. We haven't seen that. Breathe all in on our last year. We might have seen a pig in it.

I hate y'all. Why? What was y'all record last year? Nine and eight. Nine and eight. Y'all got to see the Jets twice. It's a concern. Y'all got to see the Jets twice. Mm-hmm. It's a concern. Y'all got to see Buffalo twice.

Y'all got to see the Jets now twice with Aaron Rodgers. Who's him? They got to see us, too. It's different. It's not different. I got you. He's nervous. I'm not nervous.

You should be. Lazard, Wilson, Corey Davis, Brees Hall, and Nicole Hardman, and Aaron Rodgers. With a gunslinger? And with that defense? With a top three defense. I've spent the whole morning

trying to figure out who from the Jets I'm drafting his fantasy and where. Didn't you have Brees? Yeah. Because Aaron Rodgers is going to get them

to that goal line and Brees Hall is going to get it in. And Corey Davidson is just a big red zone target. But Wilson is going to get open. But Lazard is homie from back. Like, I'm confused.

Hardman is a speed center. And Hardman. Just catch the whatever. You know, man, when you got Pat Mahal, I don't care. Take whoever you want, nigga. I'm going to find somebody.

Forgive me the cat I'll throw the cat I'll throw the cat the pigeon hey Poe you free or something energy is back in New York

yes that's it that is true that's it and Green Bay didn't give up shit all that hoopla all that hoopla

for a first round swap yeah that was a little bit of a they didn't give up shit first round swap man we got 15 we had 13 we had 15 that was crazy and now you y'all get a second round this year second round next year that was like maybe a first round in 20 well they'll get a first because Aaron Rodgers and I get to keep all the players I

got nigga all right what else what else we got what else we got this important or unimportant you missed our snowfall finale conversation I know you wanted to add something to it yo dog I'm blowing away there you go I'm blowing away I have again I'll give it I cannot apologize to all of the snowfall people enough from how blown away I was by the finale as minimalist as minimalistic as it was like that was the art it was a lot of artsy they really tugged at my artsy my artsy strings but I did have an issue let's hear I did have an issue let's hear it I did have an issue because y'all y'all put me in artsy world so now I'm here

damn I wish I'd have saved the fucking shit that I seen but mom backstabbed you the muscle backstabbed you your girl backstabbed you. The muscle backstabbed you. Your girl backstabbed you. Your homeboy went found got backstabbed. Everybody backstabbed you. Right? This is where my beef comes in. Franklin got it done for everybody for years. And it was just an episode ago that I was still the man. I'm still

Franklin. That was very fast how they got me to him being his dad walking through the boys in the hood set to honor Well they gave you the little two years, three years later bullshit. It's too fast number one

and number two, which is my big one, I believe that the ending contradicts everything about Franklin and who he's been the entire time because everything about Franklin says that with absolutely nothing I'm gonna make my mind it's the shit that I say up here all the time I'm gonna make it happen so for me it was disappointing that at the end, when everybody got on their shit, that he was just left how he was left instead of being who you are.

He wasn't Franklin no more. I think it led to the narrative that it drove him crazy. Yeah. And I got to push back on two of the points. Veronique didn't leave him high and dry, and neither did Leon. Leon just gave you a half a mil

a couple days earlier that you did what you did with, right, to try and make it happen. And then Veronique tried to help you in a business manner,

like, yo, we could sell this, we could liquidate this and we could do this and make these moves with it. He started choking his pregnant chick. So I think she tucked tail and ran. Well, they did a great job in showing the escalation to that.

His madness. So I'm with you there. I'm just saying that, and they had to end it that way for the artistry. I'm just saying for me and who Franklin, just who his body has been this whole time, if they didn't have to end it that way for the Archers. I'm just saying for me and who Franklin, just who his body has been this whole time, if they didn't have to end this, I would have liked to see him dirty tank top, dirty pants.

Sitting down in the rain. Right back at it. With some papers on the floor. That's it. He been that nigga for too long for me. I didn't see him get out of, I didn't see him do it. So that was just,

but I loved it. I couldn't be happier to be wrong about how great this season has been. What somebody pointed out to me I didn't even catch it. The money he got

out the safe it was 12. It was the same price as the first brick he bought. Yeah there's a lot of Easter eggs. They tied a lot of shit.

A lot of Easter eggs. But the same thing happened with like did you watch Game of Thrones? Don't do it Mel. Mel did you watch Game of Thrones? Don't do it, Mel. Mel, Mel, Mel. What about Game of Thrones, Mel? We did.

I saw The Red Wedding. Not The Red Wedding. A lot of people had a really big problem with the way that they kind of... Ended that show. It was terrible. Not just ended it, but everybody just felt like

they took the easy way out with Daenerys and her descent into madness. And the whole Targaryen curse, blah, blah, blah. Everyone was just like, she has been very consistent about her desire for power, very calculated, et cetera, et cetera. And then all of a sudden she just goes off the fucking deep end. And a lot of people had a really big problem with it. But I think that with Franklin, there was signs that were leading up to, they were very, very subtle signs,

but they were leading up to show the descent into madness was extremely subtle, but it was just his need for control and his need for power and his desire for that money just became the only thing that he could see. And that's why he ended up. And I thought that the time jumps were like, I was like three months and then two years.

What the fuck? But it was necessary to kind of show that. And here's the thing with the spinoff. I feel like I'm mourning the character of Franklin the way that he is. I don't, I personally don't want to see him brought back in the spin-off. He probably won't be.

I don't either. I don't think he will be. I want to see Franklin, like Joe said, sitting on the floor with some dirty shit on, with some papers in front of him, putting it together. Because that's who he's been. He's been a brainiac mind kid,

child prodigy that turned... His teeth are rotten beyond repair. His mind... His mind is Swiss fucking cheese from two solid years of drinking. He's probably got cirrhosis of the fucking liver. Melissa Boyd,

you are misrepresenting alcoholics and drug users in the world. You are. What are you talking about? You talking about a whole two years of liquor? Nigga been drinking for 15 to 20 years and turned their life around. Fair, fair, fair, fair. Two whopping years of liquor? That's fair. Also, there are alcoholics

out there, functioning alcoholics that are some of the brightest people in the world. That's very fair. And drug addicts. That is very true. And drug addicts. Absolutely. So your life is not over when you go down that that that path i think that franklin being who franklin has just from the cinematic standpoint of where that took us i watched the comments where people were like brokenhearted and winded them and people just felt such a visceral reaction to franklin to go through that is almost like rising from the dead

and i kind of want the character to stay where it is almost like rising from the dead and that I kind of want the character to stay where it is I think they kept that shit as real as possible and a lot of times them niggas that fall off and become that they don't really pick back up they don't they walk around telling stories about yesteryear about when I used to be that nigga yeah that's true true yeah we got a million of them in the bank it's energy that you can do things with you don't just write checks for nothing. You don't just pass out this money because you know if you write this check, you're taking it out of your resource and you're not getting anything from it. What if I gave you an energy checkbook?

If you're going to use your life energy and you're going to write a check here, are you getting anything back from that energy you just spent? Can you change something? No? Then why the hell are you putting your energy into it? I put my energy into things that enhance my life or enhance the life of my community. That's where... Not what I was looking for, but... Who's that?

Yeah, I got some shit in my phone. You want something to say to me? What's up? You want something to say? Yeah, okay. So you text that to me. Damn, I'm looking for this shit that fucking oh man i can't find it i'll find it one day but anyway back to my point about franklin clip i was saying says you got to think it to manifest it like all of this shit is not you to get to it but first thing you got to

do is think it nothing nothing will exist until you think it right so with franklin and all that shit that you stated bad teeth drinking drugs dirty in the rat infested trap everything everybody left me i'm abandoned your brain is still your brain my grandma breast breast her soul was on on on her deathbed brain sharp as attack your brain is your brain i would have loved to see him to bounce back yeah but I know they got it I read a lot about what they thought what they determined in the writing writing room and they're talking about seasons before even before John passed away he had indicated where he wanted to see the character eventually end up so they thought about killing him off they thought about him getting away with all his money, but losing everybody and everything around him that actually mattered. They examined all of these possibilities.

And at the end of the day, this is the one that they all came to the conclusion that this was the best way to end the series and the character after everything that we'd, after everything we'd seen. So a lot of people were like, oh, this was a disrespect to John Singleton's memory. Apparently, he was on board with the way that this ended. So, I mean, to me, this was one of the best TV series I've ever seen in my entire life.

Damson Idris, the cast deserves all the awards, but I mean, he put his, this was a masterclass. He's incredible. He was incredible. Just in case, there are people that become drug addicts and come out of it and go back and get money. For sure.

Okay. Nikki Bones was one of them, a couple of niggas. A lot of niggas do it. I just want to make sure. It's not impossible. There's a lot more. But there's a flip side. Okay, I agree.

There are. It's still realistic. It's not unrealistic, I agree. They are. It's still realistic. It's not unrealistic, I think. But again, to me, I would be happy to hear the second movie. All righty. Anybody want to talk about Succession? I want to talk about Designer. Oh, okay.

Succession's last episode is fire. Boom, that's it. Okay, so on to the next. Yep. Oh, no, y'all can break that fire. Boom. That's it. Okay, so on to the next. Yep. Oh, no. Y'all can break that down. Did you get a chance to see it? No. I'm not watching none of this season of Succession right now. Oh, you want to binge? Okay. All right. Yeah. Good idea. But y'all can talk about it. I don't care if y'all talk about it.

Yeah. So you watch it? Oh, yes. Absolutely. You watch it, Mars? Absolutely. Okay. All right. Now, Succession was fire. This episode was so dope because Roman, who's usually the one that just kind of like wants to get along to get along and doesn't really have like a strong opinion on anything. He put that Russian or it's the Swedish dude in his place. Like that shit was amazing. He did.

I think Shiv is setting up to secretly kind of take over. I think she's more Logan than all of them are. She is more Logan, and her brothers keep undermining her. That's the crazy part. While they're planning this whole thing of let's blow up the fucking deal and this, that, the other, she's in there smoothing things over like a woman can. She's not offering up the box, but she might be acting like it's...

She's leaning a little bit. She's leaning in a little bit. woman can you know she's not offering up the box but she might be like acting like it's she's leaning in a little bit you know she's doing what she's got to do in order to salvage you know the deal so far it sounds like they're sticking to real life that's what it sounds like that's what happened in real life i don't want to spoil what happened in real life for you for you but with the murdochs yeah yeah because at the end's kind of, I'm wondering how they're going to end this show with what happened in real life.

That's all. Yeah. But, yeah, at some point in real life, the daughter was clearly the one. The chosen one. And the six other niggas

was just... Got a bunch of doofy shit. Get out of here. And it was that fatal understanding for them. They got to make every decision with each other and shit was that fatal understanding for them they gotta make every decision with each other and shit and she's just

kind of freelancing by herself and making smarter decisions from what it seems like yeah by herself yeah gotcha and I do have to say

that they went to they went to Norway yeah oh my god bucket list I've been to Norway it didn't look like that I didn't go to that Norway

what you wasn't a billionaire you went to Norway yeah I didn't go to that Norway. You wasn't a billionaire in Norway. He's in West Norway. I was in Newark, Norway. Hey, hey. He was in West Norway. That's what he said.

All right. So the plot thickens on designer. We talked about that while you were away. Not the only thing that thickened. Oh, shit. Oh, man. Yeah. So designer.

So there's more information? Well, so he was apparently arrested for what we said was exposing himself on a plane, but it's come out. Pause. We got it, buddy. You don't have to do that. He did that last episode. Why?

He was firing the rocket off? He was flying the rocket off. Yep. Yep. Sorry. Nigga, you want to talk about you doing a laugh and a nigga was jerking off on a plane. He dropped Vaseline on the floor. He dropped Vaseline on the floor? Yep, yep. Sorry. Nigga, you want to talk about laughing? Nigga was jerking off on a plane. He dropped Vaseline on the floor.

He dropped Vaseline on the floor? Yeah. He dropped a little jar of Vaseline. That's what basically exposed him. Dun, dun, dun. That was it. That and his penis being out. Apparently he told the authorities that he didn't really get much coochie in Japan.

Wait. What did you just do? I said that's what exposed him. And he was quote unquote brick hard when he got on the plane. So he had to do what he had to do. He had to release. Yeah, the designer

should have went to the bathroom. Yeah, go in the bathroom. But then you said, da-dum-dum. Da-dum-dum. Yeah, you so Canadian, yo. She is so fucking Canadian. Designer.

Wrong airline. Delta, you can't do that on Delta now spirit probably would like a go fuck ahead we don't get it yeah there's a few of them that you could get your shit off maybe even JetBlue maybe no no no no no no no no they got mint you will be arrested on that JetBlue yeah that mint cabinet's cute what I learned now them flight people be, they're profiling you when you get on the plane

Today, my girl is a geek so she just is into all the apps and shit. So now she be making me, well, she's gotten me into opening the United app and checking to see what type of plane it is. Oh, I do the same thing. Okay, but I don't because I'm a real nigga. Oh, no, no, no, no.

I want to know what kind of plane that we're on because I want to know the seating, like how big the plane is.

You'll be able to watch them from your phone. Now you might need Wi-Fi to do that. Unfortunately, we don't have Wi-Fi on the plane. We will be unable to provide that. Depending on how high up we are, it might change about six hours in, but we'll see. Now, if you go to the bathroom, you can flush. There's water to flush, but the sink, there is no running water right now. So, please, if you go to the bathroom.

Take a wipe. So, now, guess who's cast to scream something out right now? Your girl. Joe Budden. Take a wipe. So now, guess who's cast to scream something out right now? Your girl. Joe Budden. No, Joe. And I said, hey, does this shit

I was like, thank God. That's all we need. As long as we can get home, it's the little things today, man. Like TV and all that shit, who cares? But if we can get home safe to our family, and then he was cool. He was going to hit that button. The white lady behind me was like, yeah, no, you're absolutely right about that. Like, as long as we can get that engine, like, fuck that TV, man.

Like, real nice moment up there in first class. You bitched up. But I'm just letting you know. The U.S. Air Marshal was in the next aisle just kind of like this. Did you hear all the beautiful things I said about my Vegas trip? All of that to get on the plane and get arrested. And it would have made the headlines. That's funny.

Well, and I've been arrested on the plane before, so. Wait. Hold on, what? When? For man headlines. That's funny. Well, and I've been arrested on blame before, so. Wait. Hold on, what? When? For what? For a man time. Pick a time. I was there for a couple of shits. Pick a time.

I've got that one before. Just. Because you were smoking somewhere having a problem with a passenger and they report you as problematic once they pick up the phone

and report you to the landing that you're problematic cops just gotta come so now cops come sheriffs whoever it is at the

police at the airport they coming in they waiting for you they try to figure it out same as that Odell shit and sometimes they not so friendly

He's Odell. I was nobody Why was Joe nobody they take come on nigga? Come on us That's it, but I let you go They don't fail keep set the factor that in when we lay somewhere Joe's gonna be an extra 20 minutes Can I take him somewhere? Yeah? Yeah. Yeah. What no no I did spend a night in the jail in Toronto when we landed. What night? Yeah, me and Crystal got locked up.

John and Crystal. Well, at least it was Toronto. Anyway, life is so, it's a blessing. Thank God for every day that you have above this earth. If there's breath in your lungs, then, you know what I mean? All that good shit. Now. To be Joe, then, you know what I mean? All that good shit. Now. To be Joe, then you got to be Joe now.

Basically. See, that's where they go wrong. That's a good one. They don't want to be Joe then. It was rough. All right, what else? What else? What else?

What else is important, unimportant? You want to talk about Pross? About what? Pross. Pross. Pross. Oh. He copped to being an FBI informant. That's not what I thought.

No one saw what I did there. And I asked today on Twitter. You gave the score a whole new meaning. I asked on Twitter. There's one nigga keeping the score. I asked on Twitter today, is he a snitch or an informant? People would say, flip what? Is he considered a snitch or is he just an informant?

And people were cursing me out. Why? Because they said, that's stupid. They said it's the same thing, but to me it's not. Elaborate. You the street nigga.

Well, I'm not a street nigga. No, I'm not. I'm just saying like, when I think of snitches, I think of person, you know, person that you did crime with that you end up telling on,

correct? And forming a snitch is the same thing, but I'm saying it applies to that situation. Does he get the proper title of being an informant because he was, who did he snitch on? What, the Chinese? You know what I'm saying? So does he get the, are we going to consider him a rat? Or are we going to just say, man, no, no, you just an informant. Like a spy, not a snitch.

You know, you were working with the police It's like a spy. You were working with the police to take down the Chinese. We got beef with them niggas anyway. That's how I looked at it. But then they said that he was informing with

the FBI for about 20 years. Like 20 years ago or some shit like that. So then you got to think of who did he take down? He was getting money with the Chinese.

Not 20 years ago. I'm just saying. I don't know. That's what the whole shit is about. Know that? If I'm getting money with you

in any capacity and you tell on me, you are a rat bastard. This is what I'm saying, though. They say he's been working with the FBI years ago. That Chinese shit just happened. 2012.

So was it, he was working with the FBI and was like planted in the Chinese shit? I think that's what I'm trying to figure out. I don't know. I was reading this story. I thought this shit was all based on the Chinese shit. I got a little, I'm trying to figure out. I don't know. I was reading this story like,

I thought this shit was all based on the Chinese shit. I got a little, I got a little blurb right here. Hold on. Federal prosecutors have accused the Jersey recording artists of getting millions from assisting, sorry,

I did not, I'm just reading it verbatim. I am so sorry. Getting millions from assisting Lo, who's the Asian financier, in running a foreign influence campaign against the United States government while Barack Obama and Donald Trump were in office. Michael or Michelle, whatever his last name is, is accused of channeling money from Lo to Obama's 2012 re-election campaign. He is also accused of lobbying the trump administration to drop an investigation into low and extradite uh dissident chinese billionaire guo wang we whatever the hell um yeah i did my

best um michael admitted to prosecutors last week that he voluntarily met with fbi agents to assist with china's attempt to deport wang we um and he told this he told the courtroom he was a celebrity surrogate for Lo admitting the financier compensated him $20 million in 2012 to help him get a photo with Obama. Blah, blah, blah.

I don't know. It doesn't really seem like some big espionage shit. It's above our pay grade. It's way above our pay grade. I see a nigga from Jersey who had the biggest gaffle game in the world.

He got paused. He gaffled his way through it, nigga. That's what he did. That's what it sounds like. That's what it sounds like. And I'm Haitian. I can get you the picture with the nigga, but it's going to cost you. I'm Haitian Jamaican. A typical zo move. You gassed the whole shit, nigga. You got caught. You got caught. We got him.

I do have a part of the show here for Melissa, but I think I'm going to skip it. Why? Damn, why? For Mel, this is from, who is this from? Simba. This is from YD.

That nigga Ronaldo. YD says, for Mel, apologies if more information has been revealed. Apologies if more information has been revealed, but I want to know her stance on Trey Songz. You seem very cautious to demonize Jonathan Majors, who has been accused of multiple counts of violence. Does Trey deserve the same grace?

Again, I could be ignorant. Yeah, I was going to ignore that because life is just so beautiful for me right now. Beautiful roses. Go to the next one. Yeah. Oh.

The next one says, oh, brother. I was giving him two. Why? Can I spit? Well, because I want to kind of rap. That's fine. Got it. Can I spit?

Not a dating topic for once. I'm from Norfolk, Virginia, but I live in the Atlanta area. I grew up on northern rap, listening like D-Block, Fabulous, Cassidy, and even Joe Budden. What do you mean even? Nigga, watch your fucking mouth. I started playing with the rap thing here and there around 18, 19 years old. About 22 years old, a friend put me on to a cell phone, recorded raps I could put on YouTube and studios I could put on CD. Then I made a a bunch of music made the mistake to expose and put out everything and a lot of it in retrospect was trash So I tainted my audience family and friends since losing half of my small audience

I've gotten better better at rap better at keeping Keeping to throw away raps to keeping the throwaway raps to myself. Before you say it, Atlanta has plenty of opportunities. I've done one or two open mics. The problem is my northern flow doesn't work with this demographic. I got bars. I know I got at least one that all of y'all would like. I imagine all of y'all having a different favorite. In my Twitter bio, Instagram is a link to my unmonetized music playlist.

Only one third is studio quality. But some of the harder raps were phone recorded. J.B.P., can I spit? Should I invest in my hobby seriously? Well, the first answer to your question is no, you can't spit for me. Maybe you can spit for them.

Catch these niggas somewhere around. And two, if you believe in your hobby, then you should invest in it. I'm going to tell them. Send it to me. I want to hear it. My email address is I'm never going to listen

I'm concerned with niggas havin' fake in common Though I'm leadin', I don't really know the path But the future can't be worse if you really know my past Beg to be understood anytime I show the wrath But how could I expect third parties to know the half-life? Hey! Keep us in your prayers you little slimy snake face fucks fuckity fucks Niggas can't even afford your fucking dermatologist anymore

Keep my fucking name away from your short little tongue, buddy. The list is synonymous with your name. Short man tongue. You an ill nigga. Watch this. They got to chill out. They shouldn't talk about no. The list is over.

Between your gunshots, you can't even hit a rap. Last night I had an epiphany That wrote it in my rhyme book and calligraphy I see so many people looking for validity That's the wrong search if what's lost is dignity I certainly have grown since mouse Chrome under the couch But I'll stomp his face to make it known what I'm about

If he own what he spout Put my nikes on his cheek Knife foaming at the mouth Get it? Reminded when I vent Nigga, God designed it, it's in the print Two memos for the spineless, one's repent Second jewel, even my kindness is a strength

Nickel No beef, no malice I got no vendetta for y'all I mean, I only want better for myself Sometimes I even want better for y'all, I got no vendetta for y'all I mean, I only want better for myself Sometimes I even want better for y'all I swear, there's no love in hip-hop Irony, not even on love in hip-hop Spacious closets, Persian rugs

Make sure I'm dressed at my best for the jerks to judge Had a talk with my ex, I knew for certain I was bugged So I let the door slam, feeling worse than I was She said all I ever made her feel Was hurt and disgust Which in turn hurt Cause that was my version of love I can't

Clear yet a unique bed of resolution It seems the chances we agree are forever ruined We talking about how I'm talking about execution We talking about now I'm talking about evolution But better days gotta come I'm a good amount of bad

Right amount of so wrong And Heidi Klum left sealed Which only grew with my point of chicken I'm a good amount of bad, right amount of so wrong And Heidi Klum left sealed Which only do my point of shaking I only be ugly for so long Slaughterhouse founder, Candorilla captain Ain't enough niggas praying I fail for it to happen Cause on both sides of the coin You get fed shells

In unison, hollowheads from Redtail Oh my fucking goodness, yo, stop Yo, y'all have been awesome. Y'all have been everything I imagined. This has been swell. Can you cut that off, yo? Because I just want to say goodbye because I ain't talking no more. This nigga's going crazy on here.

I see why they left him alone. He was depressed, angry, had time, broke, had resentments, bitterness building up with some skill. That nigga is a ticking time bomb. That nigga was unhealthy, un-Rivera, un-everything. I don't want to see a weapon to keep me from what I'm destined for. I'm seated as a blessing. on Rivera and my do swear to keep me happily from home so I do the legwork they carry the arms jacket shorty I had over Saturday she go hard the dog no change but see I'm getting it Even when the car's in park nickel The hood is on some bullshit So it ain't weird to see I'm aiming at the pulpit

Fates are empty collection, place, spirit, and ruins We're used to a different type of community When guns take the place of the quiet type, the pastor If he's scared, can't believe what he say about the life after The stained glass is bulletproof Sometimes a liar's mouth can be full of truth I done heard gospel from a sinner Told me to seize my pride if that's dinner

Said it's no human that walks without sin So we should proudly call the gates, make sure we allowed in Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey Y'all hold it down, man Whatever metric y'all want the measurement to be in, man Innovation, trailblazing Every door was locked, it's cool Whatever metric y'all want the measurement to be in, man. Innovation. Trailblazing. Every door was locked.

It's cool. Got the jailbreaking. It won't come to the poker game, but there's frail stakes in. That's all I'm telling you. Yo, Ice. 2025, 2026, man. 2025. No, I'm not.
