Seven minutes, you said?
Wait, how many minutes?
Just try not to curse.
This is a family show.

Well, we lose a lot of money.
The real rule is you shouldn't curse the first three to five minutes in the beginning and the end.
We're at 448.
Come on, let's get back to what we was talking about.
Because what we was just talking about, that was all.
You just said Big Mel and me and Flip knew what that meant.
For you.
What do it mean?
I promise y'all don't know what it means.
And I'm not on BS today.
That's not true.
You just checked me out.

What did we do?
Oh, yeah.
You will get to, but do this first.
You called me.
Mel Me.
Big Mel.
Big Mel.
But y'all don't know what I'm going to say.
I thought you was going to go there.
I'm not going to say it.
What I got in my mind is flagrant.
I ain't say that.
Big man, what up, Mel?
I'm chilling.

So wait, I never, I don't look nice.

Damn.

You look nice.
Oh, yeah, but you've been on the run with your little internet stuff.
Now I remember what's going on.

Five minutes back.

All right, forget it.
Leave me alone.
A Wonder Woman banger.
Anywho.
Okay, ma'am.
You don't want your headphones or you make mess up your phone.
Audience, thank God Flip is here with us today.
Flip almost died this week.
What happened to Flip?
You want to tell us the story?
Or are we good ways?
Flip almost wasn't here with us, y'all.
Are you crazy?
That's not what happened.
You know what I'm saying?
You about fire die?
Oh, you choking?
No.
Oh, like you.
Oh.
Yo, when I left here, you know, I hopped on my spaces.
You hopped on my space?
No, my spaces.
Okay.
My flip the network spaces.
I don't even want you.
I want to go.
I want to go.
Let me do it.
Let me tell them.
Yeah.
But say it right, though.
Y'all know how hard we worked the other day, right?
We did.
Yes.
That was the hardest.
I worked.
That was crazy.
I tried to not work that hard.
You tried to get us out of that last one.
You did.
You did.
You did.
That was a crazy day of work, but the gig is a gig.
Yeah.
Got it done.
I'll suffer the consequences later or reap the rewards.
All the guests were great, though.
That was what made it.
But that was a long day.
That doesn't typically happen.
11 to 11.
Yeah.
Like,
but damn, man, when I left, I'm like, man,
the fans are really going to enjoy these as they pop up.
So I got in bed, I called my girl.
Oh, man, baby, long day today.
Tired.
Oh, my God.
This guest says, yada, yada, yada.
By the time I got three minutes into the story, the JBP community said,
breaking news, the podcast had Acehood, Tihana Taylor,
JID,
and
offset.
Nah, you ain't do that, dog.
What?
I did.
Why?
10 minutes later.
20, 20 minutes later.
So 20 minutes later.
I had to get the crust out my eyes.
Look again.
I thought it was AI.
Then it said AI.
And then it was a real, let's just say, breaking news.
They started adding people, all this duck shit I hate.
So I sent it to Flip
and said, You think this was wise?
Are you crazy?
Honestly.
That was the different text.
The next text said, honestly.
I didn't see it because I was on Spaces still.
So thank God he's here.
Then he called me.
Listen, yo, it's a simple mistake.
I don't clout Chase, simple mistake.
I was hopped on Spaces, leaving the building.
T came downstairs and was talking to me.
Yo, hey, hold on.
Boom.
Had the conversation outside.
And then I was just excited.
Like, yo, Tay, we had a long day.
I thought I was talking to my peoples only, but I was out of line.
No, you happened again.
Don't say shit like that.
No, you did.
But that's how I did.
Oh, yep, your people.
Why would you do that?
But what I'm saying is that you know me.
I try to, I don't know.
You know, the funniest part about it?
I don't want to sound crazy.
I beat in flip spaces in the ANOMS.
Yeah.
Just recently, me and my girl heard him say,
Yeah, y'all, man, I got some amazing stuff planned for this camping trip, but I'm not going to share right this second.
I'm not going to share it right this second for y'all.
I'm going to keep it.
I'm going to keep it a surprise.
I'm going to smack the shit out of him.
But now you're right.
You got me.
You checked me.
I got checked.
But
I was with this.
Wait, hold on.
Even though I was wrong, I felt the way how this nigga checked me.
Something is wrong with me.
I'm like, why this nigga calling me like that?
Who do you think you are?
You know, I'm not no nigga that's going to chase.
A lot of times I try to keep it separate.
So you should know it had to be an honest mistake.
It wasn't like, yo, hey, it was just a mistake.
It flowed into that.
And I was excited.
Like, yo, the nigga working hard.
I just met some nigga, the J.I.D.
nigga.
That's what I'm saying.
Because they heard Tiana in the background, and I muted it.
So, that's what that's, it just happened like that.
But I next time, see, in my 30s, honest mistake.
Hey, man, go ahead, that's people.
Yeah, 40s,
45 and up.
You're right, you got it.
Getting to the end of the road, honest mistake, nigga.
Song,
say less.
What's that mean?
I'm gonna do better.
Honest mistake.
I'm gonna do better.
Don't call my phone like that.
Stop looking.
Prepare better.
So we're not making honest, honest, but thank you.
You know what you mean?
Say that to me.
Pardon me.
Yeah.

Feeling great.
Listen to the weekend.
Me and Ice were out being birds last night.
Hey,
Anamani.
Let me know.
And Amani.
That's right.
Well, I mean, he'd be a...
He just be a bird.
Shout out to E.
What y'all did?
We went to the clip show.
We went to the clip show at T5,
which was great, by the way.
We'll get to the concert review.
And then we went to the afterspot for a couple drinks.
Go home after that was the plan.
But then we found out that they're doing a little
y'all don't normally strike me as the Aftes crew.
I know, right?
Yeah, no, all right.
And then they said the Clips are doing a secret special event at another spot.
So we went there.
Cook off!
Meat packing.
All right.
Boy,
hey, it's all right.
If you end up in the meat packing district, to those that don't know.
A time is being off.
A time is being had.
A time is being had.
Cook off.
If you're in the meat packing.
Yeah.
But the clip show was fire.
We got to hit that little gas station right there.
I guess some condoms back in the day.
That little gas station.
And the ninth and ten.
He's got what?
One.
He says, what?
Ketchup?
One 14th.
I'm not talking about y'all.
Talking about back in the day when Lotus and all that was rocking.
It ain't but three gas stations in New York.
So that little 14th in the West Side Highway on a late night, four in the morning, back when niggas wore condoms.
Sheesh, that shit was clutch.
You might die, but what choice you got?
All right, back to y'all.
Yeah, so we went and saw the clip show.
It was great.
It was short and sweet.
It was very punctual.
Ice was there for Earth Gang that opened up.
He said they were great.
I'm mad.
I missed it.
Earthgang was fire.
I wasn't familiar.
They rocked a crowd.
Had me wanting to get myself more familiar with their music.
You should.
You should.
I am.
You'll like it.
You'll like it.
Yeah.
They're fire.
They were absolutely fire.
Very surprised.
The clips came out.
They did most of the album and they did, you know, their slaps outside of that.
They did
10 out of the 14 songs on a new album and then sprinkled in some clips hits.
Um, it was dope to me, excuse me, because
no push of T solo records.
They strictly kept it a clip show, which I thought was dope.
You know, I mean, I'm not taking the spotlight off of us as a group, you're getting all clips and the fans in there, bro.
They packed that place out.
That shit was packed.
Three levels, it was packed.
Packed.
We couldn't move through there.
We couldn't get out for like 40 minutes, maybe, or something like that.
Yeah.
Just the line getting out.
It was crazy.
Crazy.
Pandemonium.
I would have liked the show to be a little bit longer, but I'm also not mad at being short and concise.
If we hadn't been birds, it would have been nice to have been home
a nice time on a Thursday, but cook off.
How long was the secret performance at me packing?
We did about five, six records.
Something like that.
Okay.
Yeah.
Nice.
Also packed up there.
Also, yeah.
Jam-packed again.
I'm shocked that they had it there.
That's fire.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because that crowd ain't typically the.
Oh, Clay.
They do some hip-hop shit up there.
They do.
From time to time.
I've been to a bunch of.
Oh, no, they do.
And
they do their summertime concert series, the pop-ups.
You never know who's coming.
And it'd be a lot of rappers, hip-hop DJs.
They do that up there.
Yeah.
They do that up there.
It's fire.
Yeah.
It was a great time, though.
That was one of the best concert reviews I've ever heard.
Seriously.
No, serious.
Can't help it.
Can't help it.
Honestly.
I thought you were going to go.
Y'all don't agree.
When did you go?
I was going to go.
I was going to go.
But
in preparation for the workday the next day,
people in my life aren't punctual.
So somebody was supposed to meet me at 6.30, which turned into 7.45.
And then I had to meet with them at 6.
What the hell?
Yo, that shit man?
Yeah, nigga.
What is that?
Frying chicken.
Oh, you dope.
It sounds like chicken frying.
Call me my name.
That wasn't intentional.
The way you was talking, it did that, bro.
Well, this is a good question.
It is a good question.
It's fitting.
It's fitting.
Anyway, after that, I ran late.
I ran late, so I wouldn't have made it.
Then I wasn't in the mood.
And then I looked at their stories and saw what was happening and was thanking God, it's Green Earth, that I didn't make it.
T5 is a bad layout for a concert that's that packed.
Yeah.
Even with the little VIP balcony, it didn't matter.
If I come to a show, I realize it.
If I'm coming to a show, I need to damn near be on your rider.
I would like to see it.
Yeah.
Here's the thing.
Yeah.
Like, even though, like, most places that have the projector shit, like, we had a TV, like Metals and shit.
Like, this shit was...
Oh, shit.
A little bullshit.
I don't know.
This shit was a 26-inch Zenith.
If I come out to the show, I I want the ability to walk backstage and grab a little some Minute Maid or some shit.
I don't want to just be out here with niggas.
Facts.
Like, at some point when it's time for a break, I want to be able to go in one of these other rooms.
And for the most part, it'd be like that.
Yeah.
They couldn't get out for 40 minutes.
I might be exaggerating, but.
It was a long time.
22 minutes.
He would have been in that motherfucker pulling his hair out.
I wouldn't have been in that motherfucker.
I wouldn't have.
That wouldn't have.
He would have done some ignorance.
No, yeah, in and out.
Well, we tried to be on some James Bond Bond shit and get out, but then someone was pussy and didn't.
I'll refrain from who.
They fucked it up.
They fucked it up.
You two are here, the only other name that's been in this show.
Listen, there's lots of people around.
We had a great time at the show.
Shout out to the clips.
Who else was there?
Y'all see anybody?
Come on, give me the feeling in the room.
Give me the vibe.
What type of girls was in there?
Yeah, come on.
Give me something.
Who he saw, Parks?
He saw your man Merrow.
He didn't really like Merrill.
Hey, I mean, Big Merrow.
He didn't like that whole bunny shit you was was talking.
What'd he say?
He said, No, I got my shit back.
I don't know.
It was loud there.
I couldn't hear all the shit he was talking, but he made it a point.
I've never spoken to Merrill in my life.
He made it a point to pull me aside and said, I was laughing with y'all until y'all started saying that shit.
And then he didn't like that shit.
I don't know what part he was mad at.
He could have texted me and told me.
Well, that's what he kept telling me.
He was like, Yo, ain't no, why is it ain't no beef?
I don't have no beef with y'all.
Marrow, no, I love it.
He was like, we got each other numbers.
Like, I ain't got no beef.
Yeah, but to make it sound like that.
And he was like,
make it sound like that.
It ain't no beef.
That's my man.
But any of my mans that sit on these cameras, make it sound like what it is.
And he was like, right, when it's time to big Joe up, I don't want to hear nothing about Joe got punched in the face in 09.
Like, that ain't my type of big up.
I don't understand.
And also, you should be able to fact-check your homie.
You have not done this independently.
That ain't no beef to what you know.
You want them niggas.
And I love Merrill.
Merrill gave me the hat hookup when when Carmelo was playing.
Yeah, so shout out to Merrill.
But he said he was like, yo, I was bigging Joe up.
Nah, it needs to sound like that.
It needs to sound like that.
It didn't sound like that to everyone.
That's all I'm saying.
Make it sound like a big up to all ears listening.
It should be no confusion, is all I'm saying.
Don't trick me with none of that shit.
I'm bigging him up.
But he got punched in the face in 09, and I did the same shit he did back in the day.
Like, nigga, what?
That's like the Tyler Perry big big up that I asked
Kev on stage about.
Hey, how do you feel about Tyler Perry saying, yeah, what Ryan is doing is great.
I taught him everything he knows, and I did that 30 years ago.
Wait, that ain't the time right now for that.
Nigga.
I will say their visuals too at the show were fire.
They had like
big projectors with just random fucking 90s shit.
No.
Oh, yeah, this review's heating up, man.
Birds don't sing
live while pushing is rapping the verse.
It's just nothing but pictures of their mom on the screen.
Yeah.
And then when they flip that was pictures of pops, and then them, like,
you think you're ready?
That one hit you.
Even if you have your parents still, it hit you.
So it hit you.
It hit everybody in there.
Yeah.
But did it hit you?
But it hit everybody in there.
I'm just forgotten there.
But it hit everybody, though.
Why is it so difficult
to say that it hit me?
No, it hit everybody.
Why he can't say that?
You all noticed that?
I said it hit everybody.
Not one point did he say it hit me.
I said it hit everybody.
It did hit everybody, but what about you?
How did it make you sad?
How did it hit you, though?
Every sad.
Because you tweet at me.
It's so good to say you were sad.
Got you.
I'll tell you, the song makes you sad.
Like, it makes you sad.
But seeing that that way, it's like, damn.
Damn.
It was a great show.
Did they perform just this album or?
They did.
They did hits.
They did Goddamn and Grindin and
Mr.
Me Too.
Yo, don't.
I'm going to bring my glasses.
I'm going to start leaving my glasses.
Don't look at me and laugh.
You're going to curse me, yo.
Y'all stop talking over, Mel.
Mel.
I just asked the question.
That was actually tight now.
Look.
I know.
Wait, I wasn't.
I shouldn't be asked, and it was being answered until you knocked me and started fucking hoping.
Go ahead.
No, they did 10 out of 14 songs on the new album.
He said, All right, sorry.
Yo, thank y'all for your review.
Yo, yo, yo.
Make some noise.
Yo, he's having a good time.
We had a blast.
We had a blast.
We had a blast.
Weekends at Birdie's?
We had a blast.
I'm sorry, I'm coming here jumping around and yelling like, oh,
sorry, I don't do that.
Oh,
he shot it up.
It's not a shot.
It's not a shot.
Okay, I'm sorry, bro.
Everybody's there on.
No,
you took it that way.
That's on you.
But I wasn't shooting.
Okay.
I don't shoot.
I don't even bring my gun.
My gun in the car.
I love you, yo.
Well, thank you, God.
Shout to this.
What's up, man?
Today, sir.
What's up with you?
How are you?
I couldn't be better.
It's great.
I couldn't be better.
Glad for the weekend.
Cool.
I don't have too many weekend plans.
I'm getting ready for a family reunion next week.
Lay low.
Yeah.
Where is it?
Oh, shit.
And then Chris Brown.
What's that next week?
Chris Brown, Chris Breezy on Wednesday.
Met Life.
Let's go.
Happy, belated Munchie.
Happy birthday, Munchie.
Big Bunch.
Yeah, we're going to MetLife.
Yes, sir.
Yep.
And I like Walking Backstage at those, because he be having all the dances.
That little bald head, little thick dancer that's on the cup, they off.
MetLife.
In there.
In there, like Swimwear.
My baby coming.
Let's go, babe.
He got a nice three or four.
I'm excited about it, Chris Brown.
He has great music, too.
At Met Life.
I know.
You want to go?
You in there?
To the show?
Yeah.
Nah, I don't know.
Really?
Yeah, it's your family, man.
We're going to avoid his cousin at all costs.
We want to introduce you to your cousin.
We wouldn't introduce you to your cousin.
At least get a nigga a hug.
I don't want you, yo.
At least get a nigga a hug.
That's your family.
You're too proud, nigga.
They too proud to be at the business.
What does pride have to do with not going to a show?
Because you don't want to go backstage and meet your family.
I went to Chris Brown's show last year.
Did you go backstage?
No.
This guy is crazy.
What's wrong with your man?
We're saying we could bring you backstage.
I'm cool.
All right.
Oh, he was on the uncle's side?
Nah, that's a different side.
Oh, yo, you stupid.
Okay, so where would y'all like to begin today?
What is of most importance
up there?
A lot of new music came out.
We'll get to it.
It did.
New Gunner, new JID, new everybody.
It's mad new music.
We'll get to all of it at some point, I'm sure.
But we can start with BET suspending the Soul Train Awards and the BET Hip Hop Awards.
They gave a reason.
Well, I got an article from USA today.
BET has
reportedly suspended Soul Train and Hip-Hop Awards.
And they said, so for BET Linear, we have suspended
Soul Train and hip-hop awards.
Says the CEO, according to the outlet, he says, we have a team that's actively thinking about where these award shows might best live as the media climate continues to evolve.
They aren't gone, but I don't know.
All that sounds like is we're not spending money putting this shit on TV no more.
It ain't profitable.
Yeah, we're losing money.
So we're going to find a streaming app.
We do it on our stream, on our BET Plus app or something like that.
And still got to put the people in the seats and all that other shit to make the award show happen.
War loses its luster.
luster yeah well that one the covet one was fired that didn't have no nobody in no seats i don't think they will go that route again but but it was covet yeah you know what i'm saying so it was justifiable because it was covet and you were able to retain viewer viewership because everybody was home that's true that's true so that's why you know it was good during covet man once stopped rapping and freestyling for real
Because the Cypress was a big part of the BET hip-hop awards.
So now if we don't got the Cypress, we don't really care about the awards.
And that's where your viewership dropped at.
I think that's valid.
But they stopped the Soul Train Awards too.
So it wasn't a rap cycle award.
I'm just saying for the hip-hop cycle.
No, I'm just saying.
I just think that the shit ain't profitable no more, and they might not be able to get all the sponsorship and all of that shit.
1,000%.
I think that's what I'm saying.
And all that ties.
And the CEI is a direct result of that shit.
Yeah, all that ties into viewership.
Just what attracted you to the hip-hop awards was that.
And there could have been something that was attracting folk to the Soul Train Awards.
Either way, people are not watching.
I mean, you can tell the ratings have been on the wall just by the way that they've been advertising for the past however many years, with every single segment being a Doritos or Dove or whatever, that shows that the show itself was not particularly profitable.
Yo, let me ask you, Doritos and Dove?
Yes, they had like every
ad break,
everything was presented by, every award was presented by an advertiser.
You don't really see that at award shows, particularly, and certainly not even them historically until the last couple of years.
So that says in itself that this maybe isn't the most profitable thing in the world.
Let me ask you,
do you think that, because the Soul Train Awards, BET Awards, again, they're geared toward us,
right?
So
is it a possibility or tie-in because they can't get the premium A1X to come to the awards, period, as opposed to going to the Grammys?
Like if Beyonce coming to the Grammys or if...
Meg is coming to the Grammys and Lady Gaga coming to the Grammys.
They market that.
So because you're not necessarily going to have that, those people sitting in the front rows, they can't get the bread.
You know what I mean?
From the sponsors, from the majors, to even carry on an award show.
Yeah, that's probably part of it.
Do people get paid for these performances?
No.
I don't know.
No?
No, they don't.
I was just wondering.
Because I'm like, that could also tie in.
But if that's.
I think it plays a part.
What?
Because they can't get Beyonce.
They can't get.
I think all of it plays a part.
You know what I'm saying?
Like,
everything being said, everything that Joe was saying plays a part in it, right?
This is new ownership.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
This is very important.
This is Viacom.
And
it's a different game now.
It's not Bob Lee.
So new ownership come in and do what new ownership does, which is
remove the people that care.
And that part has been evident since they took Prem off the Cyphers ages ago.
Nobody that cares
would take preem off the cyphers.
But real quick with that, again,
I think it was Yachty or somebody on the radio when they was asking about a premi beat.
The newer rappers ain't rocking with that.
I absolutely hate when you do that.
Fam, if the cyphers, we talking about just the cyphers,
and they not really rapping like that.
At the cyphers, you're not getting a rap like they tried the father and son thing a couple years ago.
It ain't enough
that they could market that people really care about to put in the cyphers with the the the the the popular the the hot rappers at the moment i so i'm just talking about the fabric of a hip-hop award show no i'm with you i'm just
it wasn't a prem beat it was yeah it was just it's just a break beat yeah they can't rap over break beats though i'm only talking about prem standing there go ahead that's all i'm talking about
and i will say that there there are plenty of people that can rap.
They just, for whatever reason, have stopped making that look away.
It's probably partially because Preem not being there.
Well, Preem not being there says we losing money.
We don't got the money.
We don't have the money to pay him.
But then they did that shit where now, to ISIS' point, they start putting these new niggas on the internet.
They start splitting it up.
Hey, we're going to have some of y'all on TV.
And we're going to have some of y'all on YouTube.
That lets you know that this wasn't going well.
Fat Joe hosting the last nine years in a row let you know that this wasn't.
There were signs all over the place that this wasn't going well.
I don't know about them saying, them saying we're taking this off BT linear.
So where you putting this?
That says to me that if it come back, you putting this on app.
Yep.
Yeah.
So you don't trust us for television because you can't make money off it,
but you trust us for the app where you make money off.
Yeah, but we don't have to spend as much money to put a product app only versus spending all the money to make it TV ready and all of that other stuff.
None of the people that were coming to the award show care about the business of an award show.
Oh, no.
We coming because this music, this awards, we're musicians.
You're highlighting us.
It's visibility.
Maybe this will help with our albums up.
Nobody cares about the business side.
Except for the new owners that bought this business.
I know so though those people need to go hire some people, some advisors, some consultants, and some people that actually know how to turn around their failing ideology and get it done.
That has nothing to do with me, us, the rappers, the singers, the labels.
It don't.
That's on them.
What if in order to turn it around you have to spend more money?
But what if spending more money you'll be going?
In order to turn it around, you got to cut the record labels in.
Yeah.
In order to turn it around, you got to cut the record labels in.
The Grammys ain't going nowhere whether it's a dollar or not.
That's true.
So if you're not willing to do some of these things via comm or whoever is in charge over there, then what are we talking about?
We coming from the love and the creative side.
But I also think that...
If they're not on that, go ahead.
I was going to say, I think that another factor here is the consideration of the prestigiousness of the award, like the perception.
Like, I'm thinking Soul Train.
I'm like, I cannot remember the last time I was invested in watching a Soul Train music award.
Tell me if that's it.
Honestly.
And it's a significant.
They've been good.
Yeah.
No, I mean...
They have been good.
I'm not saying that they have
winning a Soul Train award.
But you said the Grammys.
The Grammys is never going to lose the luster.
It's seen as like the top of the food chain in terms of awards to be, you know, won when you are a musician.
But when you think about a Soul Train music award, like, what's...
it's it's lost its luster.
Whose fault is that though?
A myriad of different factors.
But
I think that this is just the arrival poet.
I think it's the artist's fault.
I think the artists don't value it.
Don't value it, yeah.
I remember Michael Jackson at the American Music Awards with the with the trophy stacked up, him and Webster.
People thought that shit was something.
Niggas valued those awards.
Those awards, Timel's point, don't carry the same, uh, nigga, I got 20 American Music Awards.
They'd be like,
so how many Grammars you got?
All right, if the value on your house just starts depreciating, then that's your job.
Whose job is it to fix your house?
You got to fix it.
You got to find a way to fix it.
It's nobody's job, but there's to fix this.
And it's not just happening here, right?
I thought about this the other day.
More conversation is flowing around,
is it important to win an NBA title or not.
You hear more and more players saying
today, more than I've ever heard saying, I'm choosing the money.
I'm choosing the money.
I'm choosing the money.
I'm choosing the money.
You hear more players that didn't win a ring
regarded by the up-and-coming generation as them dudes, whether you got a ring or not.
The perception is changing on that.
The playoffs and the finals and all of them, the TV schedule is so different than it was for us growing up.
Facts.
Like, it's nuts.
So if the NBA is putting more emphasis on
ad dollars dollars and where we can put this, and rightfully so.
Maybe they should.
Yeah.
What comes with that is we're not going to view that thing you wanted us to view, which is the trophy the same as before.
Like, don't you be concerned about the money and then trick us to not
being concerned about it.
And that's what a lot of
Jay-Z says, I don't know the line.
I'm trying to remember the line, but he'd be like, yo, we don't give a fuck about your awards.
Like, your Grammys, y'all tricked us, making us think that this was the pinnacle.
Why y'all robbing us?
Below, like, yo, but you got six Grammys, you might be broke, but you got some Grammy.
You know what I'm saying?
It don't have the same oomph to your NBA point.
Your NBA point is great.
When niggas cared about championships, the money wasn't the same.
Now you like, yo, dog, you want a ring and you make three mil?
Cool.
A ring or 50 mil.
Fuck that ring.
Give me my 50 mil.
It's a different, you know what I'm saying?
But still, their job as the people who contrived this layout to lead to a trophy.
True.
It's those people's jobs to bring more money to the sport.
And when you bring it, now the players could give a fuck about the trophy.
I have an issue with that, though.
I feel like it's devaluing the premise of the game.
Like when I hear players that haven't won trophies or haven't won the NBA title saying that and just making it about money, it's sending a bad message.
The incentive has changed.
I think and be good has changed.
I think that, like, and it's players that I remember being young, how important the NBA championship was.
I mean, I remember when Joe came up here and said that, yo, they're not even putting the NBA Finals or Championship on the floor.
And I feel like some of the players also are sending a bad message.
So I think that they need to get back to either finding hungry players.
There's no disrespect to some of these niggas.
I don't know.
I don't really watch sports, but a lot of it sounds crazy coming from the vets that didn't win any championships.
It shouldn't be that.
You know what happened?
And honestly, oh, go ahead.
You know what happened?
And it ain't just sports.
It's music.
It's everything.
People, like years ago, went in with the intention of being the best.
Yeah.
Now I don't really care about being the best.
I want to win.
I want to make this money and change my lineage and
pivot off into other things.
Like now, so what if we're not the best?
The incentive.
I want to be the richest.
Yeah, the incentive has changed.
So when it's like, when you're worried about your own contract, you're only worried about yourself.
It's like it's less team, more individual.
So there's less emphasis on just on winning as a collective.
And no, I got the max contract.
I won.
Let's bring it back to music and the awards.
But going back to music and the awards, Grammys.
And also, Grammys has stayed
under the control of the same entity.
You know what I'm saying?
Whereas BET Awards and hip-hop and the Soul Train Awards, that has shifted hands, you know, in terms of who has held on to it.
So in terms of like intentions of the awards being created when they were and now who has it they don't have the same intention well the Grammys are music people doing music awards
yeah
that part like
let's have the people that make know the steakhouse make the steak let's have judge the steak yeah but BET Grammys know how to do music network what'd you say BET is considered a music network is it not so well not for the past now 30 years
so that might play a role in all of this is that they have shifted shifted intention.
They've shifted directive.
They've shifted away from, and therefore it diluted the product.
You know?
I got it.
That makes sense.
Yeah.
It will make for one less fun night on Twitter a year.
That's for two less fun nights on Twitter a year.
Hopefully they fix it.
Yeah.
Hopefully they fix it.
Agreed.
I mean, for it to get fixed, maybe something, a larger picture needs to be addressed.
I don't even know if the music business breeds enough successful musicians for award shows to have the same oomph that they have, right?
Unless you, the Grammys now have a whole block dedicated to the new act.
Yeah.
They're taking the best of the best.
They're looking at all of them.
And they're taking the five, six, or seven.
They increased it this year.
Yeah.
And they increased the performance time on them.
Homeboy with the blue, baby blue suit, I forgot his name, but the Freddie Mercury looking.
Yeah, the Freddie Mercury looking dude.
That whole block.
It was maybe the highlight of the show.
It was the best part of the show.
As far as the best part.
You kind of have to
keep it, you have to give it.
You have to pour into these new acts.
That's a fact.
If all of the big acts, it ain't but nine of y'all, it ain't but nine big acts.
If we're including the white people, the island side of Def Jam 2, then it's 19 big acts.
I was going to say that too.
Other than that, the Grammys encompasses all the demos.
The Grammys Grammys encompasses white, country,
rock,
jazz, all the shit.
The rap at one point, see, and that's some new shit today, too, where it's today's view of rap, which the landscape is the landscape.
Rap has typically had enough superstars to go in any room of superstars.
No, I was talking about the Grammys is going to stay popping because all of the genres have.
But we don't need Chappelle Roan to stay popping is what I'm saying.
But then what, but this is what we don't.
We don't need Taylor Swift.
But what happens is, and this is traditionally, once that white man allows you at his table, which is the Grammys, you say, fuck the black people table, which traditionally was the Soul Train Awards.
And now that we are being accepted in hip-hop to the Grammys, where they didn't fuck with us before,
now that we're getting a chance to go to the Grammy table, we saying, fuck all the black outlets.
It's like once the white Leno and them allow you to come on their show, you're not going to come to the Joe Button podcast, possibly, because I feel like I've extended past that.
Grave mistake.
I'm not disagreeing with you.
I'm just saying, but that could be taken the same grave mistake when that happens.
You know what I'm saying?
We talk about that all the time.
How some of these bigger acts don't go sit with the
hip-hop acts or the black outlets.
Same shit.
For sure.
Good luck, niggas.
That's what I got for you.
For real.
I was barely watching them.
I wasn't going.
Like, I ain't going to sit here in front.
Like, I've been glued to the TV.
They lost my viewership.
And
that's their real problem right there.
It's a bunch of that.
Fix it.
Yeah.
Fix it.
Yeah.
Y'all, they ain't going to call you the host, your host?
They should have.
I'm asking them.
They should have.
They should have.
We passed that now.
And they should have hired someone to.
We passed that now.
There are dope.
There's the jids of the world that maybe would stay away from that because I think he mentioned not being recognized up here.
Was that him
recently?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, these are the people that you should be platforming.
That's true.
Like, he has a fan base.
That's true.
He's not nobody.
But, to your point,
Kai not knowing Wale was a microcosm of what's going on out there.
Right.
Put music people with music stuff.
That part.
Everything else should be an additive.
White people, y'all own some shit.
You want to get into black space.
Go find people that know what the fuck is going on.
Yeah, that's right.
That's it.
That's it.
That's really it.
And how to do it.
Long and short of it.
What else?
What else?
What else we got?
What else we got?
Speaking of knowing what's going on in spaces.
Yeah.
Instagram is trying to set y'all up.
Yep, for sure.
I didn't know what was going on the other day.
Well, yes, I did.
They doing what, Snapchat?
Yeah, Snapchat did that a decade ago.
Yeah.
instagram is what are they doing they added a new feature called maps where you can put your location so all of your friends and family and whatnot can see where you are in real time this sounds like a the worst fucking idea ever like hi come kill me hi come kill me no hi come catch me cheating
that's what everybody was talking about yo yo yo chill yo that's Yo, that's a shame.
We go right to cheating and bullshit.
Fuck killing people.
Well, Instagram, I think, explained it as like a safety measure
so people could know where you were in the event that something happens.
Yeah, no.
That was bullshit.
That was super bullshit.
That was Supreme Bullshit.
They also responded to some of the heat by saying, hey, this feature is something you have to cut on.
It is not just on by default in your phones.
We're not doing that.
Yeah, for sure.
But I could see how when I opened up my Instagram, it would be easy for someone to just hit continue, continue, okay, okay, okay, whatever.
Just trying to get to their pictures and get their fucking dopamine fix and accidentally turning it on, where it could be dangerous.
I think it's a horrible idea.
It was easy to turn on?
I mean, it wasn't easy, but it's a splash screen.
It pops up as soon as you open Instagram.
You just hit the button and it's like I opt in.
And now it's on.
While we're on this subject, I do want to tell everybody out there, go into your phone, camera settings.
And make sure that your camera doesn't have access to your location because a lot of people don't know.
When you take a picture,
the metadata attached attached to that picture shows where you were when you took the picture.
So, a lot of folks don't realize you take a picture and send it to somebody, they can swipe up and see right where you were when you took the picture.
That's important.
Oh, that's gangsta.
That's important.
And for some of y'all out there, no one's coming.
Like, I know, I know.
No help, or no one's coming to you.
No one's coming to do nothing to you, nigga.
Nobody gives you a new one.
No one, not not a soul.
That's like the news.
This sounds alarming right now.
It's like with
anything else.
Or y'all don't need to be on air.
You can't do nothing.
Hey, you're going to unlock your window,
key under the mat, put the key on top of the little
boulding door to the ledge.
Leave the door unlocked, nigga.
Why the cooking heard that shit trash?
Yeah.
I can definitely see how it would be super creepy for women, though.
A thousand percent.
Hell yeah.
We joking, but no.
Women, celebrities, like
ODOD.
Regular, the girl with 30 followers gets stalked by some weirdo.
It don't take fame or
litness to.
Hopefully, she's sharing her location with her good friend.
What the fuck are we talking about?
Niggas will fall for anything.
Around the world.
Wrapping around convenience or safety.
Yo, bitch, this are the greatest.
Yo, you stupid.
Don't worry.
Natalie has my location.
I'm sharing it.
Girl, I'll be there.
Natalie gets there.
Four hours later.
Natalie asleep.
Or Natalie getting folded.
Natalie gonna get slept when she walks through you too.
What are you talking about?
Share with my location.
Natalie.
That's the thing though, man.
A lot of these, I had to tell my kids that shit.
They had like 30, like 15 of their friends had their location.
They almost lost my mind in that house.
Take all that shit off.
Y'all crazy.
What the fuck they need to know where you at for?
And who y'all niggas hiding from?
And why y'all sharing it?
I didn't like that shit.
What did they say?
What's the response to all that shit?
That's the thing.
No, that's what they do.
Yeah, that's what they do.
Lex done.
Lex done got 500 new Roblox friends.

It's not about that, but nobody wants to.
You got a credit card.
You're tracked.
They got some.
No, no, they got you.
They know what you're doing.
You fired off.
I had a kid.
I know you wanted to get a bad thing.
Your car got bad chips in it.
They know you, yo.
It's chips in your clothes.
There's no chips in your clothes.
I forgot y'all, yo.
I'm going to be difficult.
You and Ish.
I'm going to be difficult.
Do you and Ish think y'all are eluding?
What y'all think?
Yo, you unlock your phone with your fingerprint.
Guess what they got?
And you've been arrested.
They've been in the jail, but I've been at those.
Who you talking about?
You don't want to just stand there and get your y'all been arrested like recently.
Like, does that make it sound like it was far away?
No, I'm saying they've been had the print.
No, but digital prints for your shit, though.
Like a few months ago.
The digital order motherfucking
don't matter.
Updated mug shot.
Yeah, you know what you look like now.
Yeah.
I ain't taking no mug shot in a long time.
Me neither.
Fuck you talking about, nigga.
They ain't mug shot me.
They didn't.
Face card.
True.
Yeah, exactly.
That is true.
Your passport.
Yo, what's wrong with your face?
Yo, dog, don't know why it was no problem.
Sounded nervous when you called out one of them days.
You think because he don't share it.
You think because he don't tell.
Yo,
one of those days you called out, it sounded shaky.
It sounded like someone else might be watching you supposed to be.
It sounded like something might have been going on that you wanted to keep to yourself, is all I'm saying.
That's all.
And you didn't come in.
Yo, niggas gonna stop calling out with that one.
I might make it for the Patreon.
Nah, I'd be like, yo, let me know if you want me to come to the Patreon.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
I want you to come
for the whole day.
He didn't say,
yo, bro, I don't talk to Joe.
I talk to HR.
Oh, shit.
Let me know.
All right, we'll let you know.
I'd be like, all right, cool.
All right.
We want you to come in.
Thank you for telling me, HR.
You the H and the R.
We got it, buddy.
Got you.
There you go.
Stop.
Weren't you arrested recently?
Yo, she's not letting that go.
Get him, mail.
I'm just.
Yeah, get him.
I'm just asking.
He was.
Came over, gave us his shoelaces and his phone.
He was looking all sad in the face.
Look, now you want to play tough and cool out yo.
Hold it, hold it.
Look, now you're Randy Savage.
But that day, it's like, yo, come in real quick.
Yo, can I take this with me?
That's what I was doing.
Can I take this?
That's what I did.
Here, yo.
Here, yo.
Make a call.
Can I make a call?
Yo, that's you.
Humble pie.
That's you.
Humble pie.
Yo, speaking of humble pie,
I want to revisit our will I am conversation because I let Parks talk me off the ledge with that bullshit he was talking about.
And because I be trying to sound humble and open-minded, I just went with it but now let's hear it now let's hear it will i am don't get to say that
that he likes black thought better than jay-c no that black thought is one trillion times better than jay-z will i am is not the mc that could say that and no mc that mc's at the level we talking about would say that
Just the comment by itself say that this person shouldn't be saying it.
And when I saw saw Jadakus talking about it, and I loved what he had to say, which was, me too.
Dog, this is just division for no reason
for two names that nobody is even thinking.
Nobody's here with this.
It's only him, Will I am, who nobody is looking at like that or for that.
He's right.
Shut the fuck up on some things, Will I am.
A trillion?
No.
No, I don't care how the old shit sound before Shorty joined the group before the hits came.
You can't say that.
He can't say that.
I think he can say that.
No, he can't say that.
Who can't offer their opinion on fucking art?
That's more than your opinion on art.
There is no person on this earth that is a trillion times better than the person we're talking about
in one particular slider in hip-hop.
That's true.
That don't exist.
It may have been a little hyperbole.
You're right.
And then when I watched it back, you saying that to Sway.
Right.
Mr.
Hip Hop Car.
You heard what Sway said.
Explain your logic.
Show your back.
Show your ass.
Show your work.
Show your work.
How'd you get this answer?
That's it.
How the fuck?
Nobody.
That's all it needed to be saying.
Because nobody would say that.
That's true.
He don't get to say that.
Nobody would say that.
William don't get to say that.
Michael Jordan is a trillion times better than Kobe Bryant or LeBron.
Like, nobody said that.
Nobody would say that.
They're not going to say that.
Like,
just the premise of this conversation is handled with the participants you handle with more respect than to say
a trillion.
That is true.
A trillion.
All you're saying is that's my preference.
Say, I think Black Thought is better than Jay-Z, and this is why.
And that's it.
And
nobody says nothing.
That's your opinion.
You could say it.
A trillion.
You're trying to do a little more, Mr.
Techie Tech, Mr.
Tech Man.
That may be true.
I don't know.
He's putting some sauce, man.
You know what you're doing?
Yeah, I'll let Paul stay off the ledge.
Don't talk me off, no led.
When I'm on the ledge, I calculated before I walked up to this motherfucker.
Hell no, Will I go ahead, man.
What was the context?
Why did he just volunteer that information?
He was on Sway.
I know, but what's the interview?
Sway ask him, like, do you think so-and-so is better than so-and-so?
Like, just seems like a random thing to just kind of pull out of here.
I think you may have asked him what his favorite mcs were or something is mount rushmore i think that's what it was because it was around the whole mount rushmore fucking phase which is still going somehow still yeah and his thing was i'm different right these are the names you normally hear but mine is this and this is
niggas are
you got it
like i respect i like i like will i am but he got carried away It's okay to say when somebody we like got carried, you got carried away
in front of Sway, which you shouldn't.
Like, Sway ain't even the person to get carried away in front of him.
I'm surprised that Sway didn't offer more pushback.
Sometimes I don't think he needed to go.
Sometimes
let him go on the ledge.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, you think that?
Oh, hi.
What's your lady?
This clip is going to go viral.
Maybe it did.
Maybe it did.
What are we talking about?
It's been perturbing Joe for weeks.
I didn't sleep right at night knowing that you talked me out of that because Will I am used to rap.
So?
You still can't say that.
Who can say that?
Nobody.
No one would and should say that is the point.
Okay.
Nobody would.
Who would?
Let's think of somebody.
Think of all of the there's not one receiver living that is a trillion times better than Jerry Rice.
I don't give a fuck who you go get.
True.
Terrell Owens is in the conversation.
Randy Moss is in the conversation.
They're not way better than Jerry Ross.
So we just stuck on the word.
A trillion.
A trillion.
Yeah.
Or just way, like, it's just nobody out here that's doing it.
He emphasized that.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, way, way, way better than him.
You can't do that in music.
And we don't do that in basketball.
The only time that's acceptable for me maybe is in baseball.
Like if somebody wanted,
I've heard Gary Sheffield and the best of them say Barry Bonds was different.
Yeah, they don't.
And they still don't say a trillion.
They just say he's not in nothing.
He's better than everybody any day, no matter what he's wearing, no matter what.
He's take him out of this.
He's gonna leave it his own.
That's what they say.
He could wake up.
That's acceptable to me.
If you hear people today talking about Otani, no, but know who's saying it.
Like that.
Know who's saying it?
Them.
Gary Sheffield.
Yeah.
It ain't just Gary Sheffield.
No, I'm saying to your original point.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like when the NBA niggas talk about Kobe Bryant that played basketball.
Yeah, Will I am is not Gary Sheffield.
I ain't gonna be this way.
But you can say you can understand because she did say
that Black thought is better than Jay.
You can respect and understand this.
I don't have to respect that.
Everybody could say what they want to say, but when you start hearing from credible people in front of credible people at a credible location trying to have an esteemed like real hip-hop talk, it's important that we, it's important we have it.
You can't, he can't say that to who he said it to, where he said it.
If he home somewhere, say, what the fuck you want to go?
He shouldn't say that nowhere where niggas like me can hear it, where niggas like Jadakiss can hear it, where rappers can, where Nas is listening to this.
They turned that on in the mass appeal office and probably had a stink face.
Like, what, no, Will.
No.
No.
Even there,
no.
They will not let him say that about Jay-Z.
Now, I'm talking, I'm glazing.
Anyway,
it's time for my favorite part of the show,

All right, I'm sure some of you out there are asking, what is PrizePicks?

All right.
They continue to throw dildos on the floor at WNBA basketball games.
This time I think it was a purple dildo.
Oh, they switched it up.
Purple and green.
That's a good thing.
I mean, I mean, Joker colors.
Or maybe I just saw two different dildos.
Maybe they threw a green one and a purple one.
I don't know.
It's multiple colors.
It is multiple colors.
It is multiple colors.
Yep.
Well, you know.
She's got the dildo tracker on the phone.
I was about to be like, yo, fam, is that normal?
No, the fucking nigga.
Like, neon.
No, I mean, like, neon colors and shit.
Hey.
That's invasive.
Yeah, nigga.
You can't ask Mel.
I didn't say anything.
I'm telling her how dildo is.
I didn't tell her her shit is.
I didn't say anything about hers.
You can tell Mel don't look cool, masturbated, too.
Yup.
On some old white lady shit.
Yeah.
Yo, on some old white lady shit, you just know that she don't look cool at all doing that.
Oh, my God.
And my cousin's, the least swaggy.
My cousin said.
And the.
Yo, who's running that shit?
Leave me alone.
All right, but
leave me alone.
All right, all right, I'm done.
Leave me alone.
Anyways,
multiple colors.
What thoughts do we have about this?
The WNBA responded by saying they will no longer allow
those at the show.
Yeah, okay.
No,
they will no longer allow patrons to bring bags inside the arenas.
That ain't who won't tell them.
The niggas be boofing it, man.
Niggas go to the bathroom, pull it right out of there.
Niggas do that.
But I don't understand what is why are they throwing the dildos?
Yo, can the NBA owner walk over there and just like lend his brain to the problem?
You can tell it's just girls trying to figure it out.
No more bags.
No,
that ain't going to stop.
I think that they should be charged with sex crimes for this shit.
For what?
Somebody got arrested.
They arrested somebody.
But what would they arrest him for?
Like some
mischief, public mischief?
That could definitely be the charge.
Yeah.
to be more severe than that.
Yeah, that's the issue.
They didn't get the right person anyway, so it don't need to be more severe than that.
They was just pressured to activate.
Were they dusted for Prince?
Yo, that's funny, son.
I see two clean ass.
I think they've been arrested.
Get your juice off.
Yeah, but this is a group, buddy.
Oh, man.
You can lock two people up all you want.
That's just going to make them throw more dildos on you.
They booked them for suspicion of disorderly conduct, assault, and public display of explicit sexual material.
Bro, you said it's a group.
You chopped the head off.
I'm saying it's a drink.
Do they ISIS niggas?
They can throw a dildos.
Is they Al-Qaeda?
That's what you say.
That's what you say.
It's a sleeper cell.
Listen, Kev from Barstool said that he had got an email from a group.
Claiming to be responsible for throwing the dildos.
They were anonymous.
And they said, yo.
Dildo's anonymous.
DA.
And they encrypted emails.
And they were like,
if you don't believe us, pay attention to the games.
There will be more dildos.
See, you down.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You did that really well.
Dogs.
That is hilarious.
I think it's a group.
I think that.
The cryptocurrency group.
Cryptocurrency meme coin creators say they are responsible for the sex toys being thrown at multiple NBAs.
Someone has to do the voice.
And they are planning more pranks.
I need them to step out and watch.
Hey, Erickson,
keep your eyes peeled.
With that coin hit the market, that shit going to take off.
And I'm going to be right there.
Oh, that's genius.
I'll see what they do.
Wait, you're going to buy the dildo coin?
You fucking ain't right.
Yeah, look how fast.
It's turned cold on some money shit.
He was just there.
You think this is an organized?
I'm right there.
Sleeper cell, nigga.
Sleep a cell.
Once Mel Reddit, you fucking ain't right.
I get it.
You don't buy your mother.
Are you smiling?
What's going on on the camera?
I'm trying to figure out what the motivation is.
There's no pictures of dildos.
No bottom of it.
I'm just trying to figure out what the motivation is.
So the spokeswoman for the crypto, spokesperson for this crypto group said that this was, their intention was,
blah, blah, blah.
He said a group of crypto enthusiasts and traders launched Green Dildo Coin.
Oh, shit.
They get rid of that.
The meme coin intended to be lighthearted and perceived as a joke in late July to protest what they described as a toxic environment in the crypto world.
According to the group, many smaller players in the space are struggling to keep up with the influx of influencers and scammers.
So as a form of protest, the meme coin was created and the faction began infiltrating WNBA arenas with color-coordinated sex toys to coincide with the launch.
This is a hell of a marketing scheme.
It is.
Yeah.
And it's working.
I don't know if it is.
Well, it's in USA today.
We're talking about.
Yes, it's working.
It's working.
Exactly.
It's working.
It's working.
Oh, my bad.
It's definitely working.
It's working.
Sydney Sweeney jeans worked.
It all works.
All of it is working.
It's working here, too.
Fuck you talking about.
That shit is going up.
Think I'm joking.
Think I'm joking.
Yes.
You such a bitch.
You call me what you want.
Hey.
Throw
lime cream next time.
Big one.
Fuck you talk about, nigga.
Think I will have some shit.
I saw one of them online sport book joints had, you could bet on what color you thought the next one was going to be.
All of that is, is going to make the coin keep going up and up and up.
That's it.
Do you think they'll throw it at the NFL games?
Or the NBA games?
No.
No.
No.
Get your ass whooped for that, right?
Yes.
Well, apparently, sex toys have been thrown at sporting events in the past.
Probably the most well-known incident was at the New England Patriots versus the Bills game in 2018.
Do you guys remember anything like that?
I don't.
Yes.
You do?
I do.
What did they throw out there?
I remember them throwing something on the field during that game.
And
was Aaron Hernettis playing?
Yo.
And this has happened at a baseball game before.
I'm not saying it's never happened, but
do I think it's going to happen at this frequency, at this clip?
No.
Nah.
And it'll be stiff, stiff,
harsh consequences.
Harsh.
Yeah.
Because the dude next to you might snitch.
Yo, family.
Security come over there like it was one of y'all.
Y'all both get up.
No.
He might be pulling the Joe button and buying the whole row, though.
That meme coin money.
I just want to see the pitch.
I want to see the actual lineup.
I want to see how the dildo is being lowered.
Maybe they got a little t-shirt holding it like that.
Because you got to do it on a low.
You surround it.
There's people here.
You got to hit them with a...
And you got to hold it by the paws, nigga.
What?
You got to.
By the balls?
By the paws.
Do the dildos have balls or something?
No, you know.
All right, so no.
He's right.
No, he's saying the shaft.
Nigga, you got to hold them by the.
He's saying you got to.
He says shaft here.
It's a safe space.
By the pickle part.
Yeah.
The pickle part.
Because if you toss it by the ball,
you're not getting it where you want.
The dildos do not have balls.
The dildo got balls?
No, they do not.
Yes, it did.
I've seen some balls on some dildos.
Wait, what's that?
She used the other shit with the plug-in.
She used the plug.
Hey, Mel.
You want some white?
You want some cheap shit with the dildo?
Just balls.
The balls are extra.
Get a pair of balls, Mel.
You want some cheap shit?
God.
Yo, you're great.
Yo, you want some cheap shit with a dildo?
Listen, I have one, but I just keep going back to Old Faithful.
You know, the Hitachi.
Hitachi.
That's my favorite shit.
But yeah.
I forgot some of those headballs.
Can't throw them out.
Balls are kind of useless.
Yeah.
Well,
I hope the ladies of the WNBA get a grip.
I mean, get this under control.
Get this under control.
You think that's the problem?
It's just falling?
I don't think they react to it well either, which means that this is going to continue.
That's diagnosed.
That's definitely what it...
It's disrespectful, my name.
It is.
It's the next level up from a dick pic.
Yeah.
Huh?
Yeah.
That's how you don't think that's disrespectful
yo man which is it is
you're a monster yo you're a core i said i'm saying it is i know you're a corey i think someone could flip that and make it into a profitable thing get it get a dildo sponsorship me i like
i i like funny disrespect versus like the real nasty rude disrespect like
how would you throw the dildo I wouldn't throw the dildo because this is rude and disrespectful.
It is.
All right.
But if you were to say that.
But
if you were a rude, disrespectful person and was about to throw a dildo, how how you throwing it?
I would be trying to Steph Curry that shit to center court.
I ain't gonna fuck.
And they could come arrest me.
I'll make a spectacle.
I'll spit in the camera like Pac.
If I get dildo arrested, nigga, I'm going out like a thug.
See, I've tried to find one with the suction cup and try to plant that motherfucker in the back.
You can definitely go to jail.
Well, you just got.
And they stopped it on the news, too.
And I got to lie about Y Man.
Yeah, you can't.
If I go to, I can't, not telling nobody.
No, by the time we get, I thought of my story.
No, they're going to tell.
I thought of my story in the van.
I thought of mine on the way over, bro.
They're going to tell.
Oh, my lord.
See y'all going to be like, yo, we picked this dumbass nigga up right here.
Yeah.
Fucking slinging dildos at the garden.
Oh, yeah.
He'll whip your ass around.
You're like dildos, huh?
Yo.
Good luck to the ladies.
I do hope y'all get that under control.
Just not immediately.
Because it's still a funny.
It's still funnel.
It's still funnel.
And let this coin go up a little bit.
Precious sake.
And buy something.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What else?
Would somebody like to tell me why Shakari Richardson is pushing and shoving all over that man in an airport?
Ice.
Mel.
I don't know what happened.
Ice.
I don't know what happened either.
I saw her pushing him and she got her ass locked up.
That's what I know.
Because they leaked the video of her pushing him.
Oh, yeah.
The video came afterwards.
Yeah, they leaked.
I know.
That's what I know.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was just the story broke first.
Was she was pushing him.
He kept trying to walk away.
She kept bumping into him, bumping into him, pushed him up against one of the columns in the airport.
And then they reviewed the tape and then went and locked her up.
Did she know this person?
Yeah, it was her daughter.
It was her dude.
That's her dude.
Oh, gosh, she's a dad.
That's her dude.
And her dude didn't want her arrested.
He said,
I'm not pressing charges.
That's my baby.
Yada, yada, yada.
Real adult way to respond, considering there's so many places to stuff her little ass inside of an airport in the event that she got to pushing you like that.
I think he's an athlete as well, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hit Spring.
Yeah.
He can't do that.
I know he can't.
Put her little ass right in the carry-on.
He can't do nothing.
In the overhead.
Exactly what he did.
Your word is bar.
He did exactly what he did.
Put your little ass right in the overhead.
Okay.
In the medicine cabinet.
You made one move.
I put a whole story change.
You know, that little vehicle that drives the elderly people to their gate.
If it has a trunk,
is it a trunk?
They drive me.
The elderly.
And y'all.
Oh, okay.
There you go.
You are the elderly.
Oh, shit.
Two shots.
Hey, tell you, and I ain't far from the elderly.
You crazy?
You think I ain't got 20 for Mary?
Yep.
Crazy.
Get you right there.
Just be ashamed of yourself.

Wheelchair.
That's my first class.
Yeah, that shit works.
But what is your disability?
I need the wheelchairs.
My disability is I don't want to wait.
They don't know if he got a bad toe, nothing.
Oh, yeah, I always go to the ankle.
Yeah.
I get a little limp going.
Yo, I got an ankle surgery.
How long was the last time you did that?
The last flight I took.
Oh, you do that?
No, not that.
Every
man.
I got a flight in a couple weeks.
I'm going to do that.
Oh, you're a sicko.
Maybe not.
No, this is a good thing.
I don't know that.
Ask someone who

This guy is a nutcase.
Pam.
Count him by pockets.
That's right.
So I count my pockets, man.
We different on first class.
Can't count on my pockets.
Or a three-hour flight.
I'm cool.
You got it.
Yo, why do people say that?
What?
Three hours is a long time to be in the air.
Let me explain something to you.
I'm drunk going on the plane.
I'm asleep before we take off.
So
you know none of that.
So wait.
So you're in a wheelchair.
Drunk is what you're saying.
With no disability.
I've been freaking drunk.
I have flexibility.
Never needed the wheelchair.
That is funny, yo.
Okay.
You know what?
That's hilarious.
What you want, baby?
You got it.
Get it on how you live it.
Say what you want.
No, one of my people was like, yo, the flight only an hour and a half, two hours.
All right, cool.
Hours different.
I told you, I ain't like Ice airport swag when he came and forgot his shit in the car and had to run back.
Ice is rush.
Ice.
It's a certain airport swag you got to have, like to go through the airport comfortably.
I just had too much shit that day and was rushing.
I try not to rush for that reason.
Boy, when you took that trip, boy, Miss in Peace was cussing you out and I was instigated too.
Girl, can you believe?
Can you believe it?
I know he was.
I know he was.
I know he was.
He's such a bird,
asshole.
Could you believe he did that?
How do you tolerate that?
Hey, he's been at it all boy.
All boy.
At work.
Whatever he did, girl.
I told you, son.
This guy is crazy.
That's why niggas don't leave their their girls around.
I know, it's true.
It's true.
Wait, so what do you do with Miss in Peace when you hear the wheelchair?
She's in a wheelchair.
Oh, you got cookie tracks down with you.
The last time we came back from Miami, she was in a wheelchair.
Yo, babe, get this.
Come on, I got you.
Anybody with disabilities right here, pre-board.
Take a fight with my mom.
Yo, mom, mom, pull, show them the surgery scars right here.
We got to get.
Missing peace

Okay.
She don't look disabled.

So, disability got a look now?
It's your fault.
Oh, shit.
Oh, shit.

Careful.
Yeah.
It's your fault.
It's my fault that Ice is King Koon tough.
It's my fault.
Yeah, it's your fault.
You got it, big dog.
Shakari, stop hitting me.
Keep your head.
Keep your hands.
Stop pushing men.
When I watched it, the one time when she pushed him up against the pole.
He got upset.
I thought he he was going to bounce off with the answer to him for the restraints.
I thought he was going to bounce off.
It looked like she pushed him hard on the pole.
Because first she was just hitting him with them.
But then that last one.
I am not big in your wife.
Fam.
What up?
One slide.
You see niggas losing all the sales.
You're bugging.
You're absolutely bugging, Joe.
You're not big in them.
We're taking this pod shit too.
Too damn far.
Hold up.
Hey.
All right.
Y'all big him up, but don't speak for me.
Shut the fuck up when it comes to.
I ain't nobody speaking for you.
I'm not going to big him up for having the restraint.
You look over and see the girl is three feet and you love her and she lives with you.
She'll be acting stupid.
You know how this is going to go.
If you just mush something, you like
it.
You know it.
Well, it ain't hard.
It ain't hard.
It's like, hey, you better knock it off.
But she don't knock it off.
They keep going.
Hey, hey, listen.
You better stop it.
The restraint.
You sit there and laugh.
Oh, God.
Yeah, he wasn't laughing.
Bro, we in a public space.
That's the only reason he wasn't laughing
is because they was by gate 89.
That is the only reason he was not laughing.
That's when you're supposed to laugh.
Like, girl, you know, we right here in his head.
Yo, dog.
Shakari would have been in the Burger King bathroom.
In the fry box.
She would have been
in the shake shack fries bag.
And you know what?
What?
Get your little self over here.
What?
You want to wild out.
And guess what happened there?
That's why I salute you.
In the fry bag.
Oh, my God.
Wait till I tell the police what ice and this girl is doing to me.
If you think I'm not telling somebody.

I ain't know that.
You know what?
You see me in the wheelchair, just salute me.

That shit was dope.
When I had to boot?
Well, sure.
That's a valid reason.
I'm driving.
I was getting money down there.
I thought I was an F1.
It's crazy.
No,

The double wheelchairs?
Yes.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
One of us is in a wheelchair.
One sits in the wheelchair.
You're pushing her.
You're saying her life.
Okay, what would you, gentlemen?
All right, we got.

Nobody asked.
Tell us about it.
Well, tell us about it.

Everybody bypassed it.
I was at the Sex in the City conference.

Just single word.
I was like, all right.
You did Mark, who was on vacation with his wife?
I sure the fuck did.
Yes, I did, because he is a journalist and I respect his opinion and he is my friend.
And so I asked him, quick question, do you mind?
I don't mean to disturb you.
Okay, got the answer.
So it didn't like that.
You do find red.
Somebody else told me about a text that you said.
You do just find reasons to text people.
Well, I mean, if I'm asking a question that I need an answer to, closed mouths don't get fed.
On the button.
That's a fact.
Yeah.
So, you know, I needed to know, should I, should I, should I make this investment?
And I did.
Okay, did you feel uh did you speak?
No, I
was not invited to the conference to speak or whatever else.
What the fuck?
Do you still have a thing that was worth it?
Absolutely.
You did networking and everything?
I did a lot of networking.
It was my first time going.
I met a lot of people.
It was in Cleveland, right?
Yes.
What?
Go away.
Talking to the mic, motherfucker.
Talking to the mic.
No, you went there with your face car.
Hey, that is Melissa Florida.
You went there and said it was the crowd.
You went all the way to the cliff.
Have you ever been to a conference before?
Okay, so you know you walk around a lot.
Did you, bad?
You know, there's like a lot of panels and shit like that.
Melissa Ford.
I know that.
And I got recognized.
Everyone knew who I was.
A lot of pod fans.
Shout out to the pod.
I thought you was going there to talk to me.
A lot of patronies.
Okay, wait, wait, let me just say this.
Yes.
You used that as a reply to his Harvard invite.
And I thought you was going to to body it.
Yo, I'm on her, I'm on a, I'm going there to speak.
You went there, that's different.
You went there to walk around?
No, that's different.
He was invited to
Harvard to speak, a keynote speaker.
This is a conference.
How did I get it?
He threw you into this shit.
This was a conference where multiple panels are happening.
There's a job fair happening.
There's events that happen.
Did you go to the job fair?
I did.
I'm about to move my shit.
I'm about to get fired.
Who's hiding this?
Is this E-bro?
Well, I mean, you know.
The acronym that they use is also need a better job.
So,
shit, whoa!
Damn, you throw shots at Joe.
I'm not throwing shots at Joe.
I'm talking about the shit that I learned well.
When she looks over, she notices a friend of hers flew in from London
to watch her finish.
The friend flew in for like 24 hours.
And she sees the friend, and she immediately starts bawling.
She's like crying and running.
And you can tell she's like overjoyed that her friend would do such a thing.
I think sometimes when men are questioning why women are choosing to be single,
what did men do again?
How are we involved in people running?
And a friend going to support a friend.
What did men do again?
How are we?
How is it
how did we get into this conversation for a friend in London to go and support the other one that is running London?
What did men do again?
How how?
How did we get into this situation?
How did we get into this?
How?
How?
What did we do?
Is this obsession or you had a bad father in your life?
Because I don't understand.
Your bad choices.
Some of you women go and choose bad men.
Some of you are being raised by bad fathers.
Anywho's
so,
what's the correlation between that and me?
Saying that, how did he get involved in the conversation?
Thank you, Flip.
You did it.
Thank you.
Go ahead.
Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.
Anyways, it was a great conference.
I met several people that I am, you know,
keeping in touch with idols.
Oh, idols.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, really?
Like who?
In In the generalist space?
Yes.
I'm going to ban reviews.
I'll tell you what.
Go ahead, though.
Go ahead.
All right.
Tell me how you would like a review to be done.
Good question.
Who are the idols?
You forgot.
No,
it's not that.
I forgot.
I bury the lead, right?
Because I like to drag shit out.
Is that what you're trying to say?
Oh, my God, yo.
Oh, this shit you're talking about.
So who's the idols?
Stephanie Elam and Michaela Pereira.
Who the fuck?
Okay.
Markdown.
Let's get to it.
Just because you guys don't know, that doesn't mean anything.
Oh, thank you for that.
Shout out to Stephen.
They're my own personal idols.
They're my own personal idols.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
That's it for my review.
It was fun.
Had a great time.
I'm here.
Audience just know.
I hope y'all enjoyed that review.
That will be the last thing.
That's review.
Oh, speaking of reviews.
All right, they got me ice.
They got me ice.
They got me ice.
We're going.
We're going.
We're going.
Wait, what?
Movies.
Weapons.
Movies.
Weapons.
Weapons.
I'm going.
They got it.
I don't usually fall for marketing like that.
Usually, actually, over-marketing turns me off.
I'm like, I see what y'all trying to do.
What I read, every review I've seen,
like even the in-depth reviews, not just the, oh, this is a great heart.
You know, not those surface ones.
Everything I've seen has me saying, all right,
I have to go see this movie then.
The concept seems super far and unique, but horror.
Damn, it's the first thing that popped up when I opened the little ticket app.
I'm good.
Yo, and you don't do horror movies?
Hell no.
I was not shorty in it.
I'm sold.
You scared?
Damn, these reviews are arc.
Who's Shorty?
From Fargo.
Or
Ozarks.
Why don't you do horror movies?
It's not my bag.
They scare you?
You can't sleep.
It's not my back.
Julia Garter.
Because you won't go to one?
Yeah.
Just because it's horror.
Yeah.
You don't feel like that shit is a little deeper than that.
But if your girl is there,
you don't feel like jumping.
You could hold her hand.
You could jump in her.
Yeah, she'll keep you safe.
She'll hold you, nigga.
You scared of horror movies, bro.
You close your eyes.
Everything with this guy is so cool, nigga.
So why you scared?
I'm not scared.
What are you talking about?
Who does it?
Do you think he's a devil?
It's okay.
Bro,
murdering killer from your neighborhood.
But the horror movie is frightening.
Yeah, it's different.
He said,
like,
devilish worship.
Oh, you a conspiracy bag.
I got it.
Every crib.
Chucky?
Nah, that's bullshit.
That ain't horror.
Chucky in them ain't horror.
When you start playing with the supernatural shit, I don't fuck with none of that.
Yo, you got a lot of shit.
So, no lotion.
No supernatural.
No lotion.
You make homemade applesauce in the crib.
Homemade applesauce.
I don't fucking want to make that.
No lotion.
No horror flicks.
It's crazy.
What else?
What else?
Fuck with that.
Anyway, I think I'm going to see this movie.
I'm going to see.
I'm going to see.
I think I'm going to see this movie.
When the reviews started looking good online, I did go check the eye pick.
It's mad showtimes.
That's normally a good sign.
And all of them weekend shows were sold to fucking.
They sold out, yes.
No, they're not.
You just checked?
I just bought two tickets for Sunday.
For who?
Myself and whoever she wants.
You buy the tickets for niggas?
Oh, shit, that he got you.
Let's go, man.
I don't buy two tickets.
I know you buy the whole row.
So, Monday, a girl met him.
Got it.
Got it.
Make sure you text him, let him know.
I'm going with a girlfriend.
Sam, if you was going with a dude, what's your name?
What's wrong with that?
I like it.
I can't buy a nigga ticket on this.
Once you pass 45.
But when Joy is a girlfriend, it seems like it ain't lit out there for you.
Once you pass 45, sometimes you gotta pay.
You know what I'm saying?
You gotta buy friends.
Hey, you wanna go to the movies?
Girl, did you ask me what I'm doing on Sunday?
Stupid.
Yo, you just bought a ticket.
You didn't text nobody to ask if they wanted to see it.
You would know because you were always looking down on my phone, creeping and shit.
I love you, bro.
I'm going to see you.
I'm going to check this out.
Weapons.
Nigga, if you're going to be able to do it.

Denzel Washington and Spikely.
I'm sorry.
Did you see them trying to cut down coming attractions?
You've been doing that to that nigga all day.
Early, he let you slide.
That nigga looked at me.
I was like, this is my bed.
It's okay.
I saw you do it.
There's a coming attraction

That's fine.
But any of them horror-type flicks is going to show you that it's a really good.
I wish I was.
It's called The Long Walk.
Thank you.
It says a group of teenage boys compete in an annual contest known as the Long Walk, where they must maintain a certain walking speed or get shot.
And it is a horror flick.
It's a horror flick.
It comes out September 12th.
Nelson, I met my idols.
Stephanie Aguiro.
And Marlene Panero.
Panera.
This girl, yo.
Listen, Jason Lee.
Jason Lee is under investigation allegedly for stealing over $50,000 in city funds to cover a wild and out event.
So he took some city funds.
Oh, wait, he's in because he's an elected official.
Yeah, he's an elected official somewhere.
I forgot about that.
Hold up.
I'm going to find my own girlfriend.
Stockton.
Stockton, California that's where he's from okay and I think that he became
he became like a city councilman okay yeah that's dope and we start tonight with breaking news late today the interim city manager in Stockton announced an investigation it's all about the use of fifty thousand dollars in the city's risk mitigation fund the money was used in connection to a recent wild and out event allegedly without the city manager's approval or knowledge the city is now investigating exactly how that money was authorized and who was involved So stay with ABC10 for updates.
ABC10, you ain't helped with shit just now.
Up to the end of the day, Venice Health Arena, $50,000.
It was all in order to avoid canceling a show the vice mayor performed in.
ABC10's Gabriel Forrest has the latest from Stockton.
That's right.
We got those emails late this afternoon painting a picture of the latest controversy to grip Stockton City Hall.
Those emails are between staff members here at City Hall and officials with the organization that operates the Adventist Health Arena just about a block away.
In the emails, arena officials warned city staff members that the promoters of the comedy show Wild and Out were considering canceling their May event due to low ticket sales.
This was just a day before the show was set to happen at the arena.
The promoter asked the arena for $150,000 in support to keep the show going on, but the arena could only find $100,000.
An arena official then asked City Hall for the extra $50,000 saying that a cancellation could deter future arena events and that it could hurt the city's economy with at least 10 other events already having been canceled this year.
The city's economic development director found the money in the city's risk mitigation fund and offered it up.
The particular event at the arena involved the vice mayor Jason Lee who said he helped bring it to Stockton.
Some of this controversy was brought up
to Jason Lee.
Meeting tonight here at City Hall.
Take a listen.
This really whole week has been about a political witch hunt to prove somehow that the vice mayor conspired with city staff to go in the bank accounts to give $50,000 to a brand that lost $170,000 on top of the $50,000 in an approved fund that they have used in the past.
Jason Lee.
Now let me tell you something, Jason Lee.
This is why I don't fuck with you.
But we squashed our shit, but this is why I don't fuck with you.
I've been on Hollywood Unlocked ever since the story is broken.
I ain't seen a beep.
I'm just waiting for you to post your shit.
You want him to unlock his own shit?
Yeah,
unlock that shit.
You can't take the money from the risk and litigation fund and give it to Wildin' Out so they could do a May event in the town.
And then he went to City Hall and doubled down.
Jason Lee.
Man, what do you think about this?
As someone who used to work with him and has
a close understanding, like inside sort of like a source for this.
Like as someone that has inside knowledge of his inner workings and the business infrastructure over there at Hollywood, how do you feel about this?
What do you think, Mel?
As someone that's worked closely with Jason Lee for
10 years, well, four, which is 10.
How do you feel about this?
Mel, it looked like the lights just got cut on.
What's up?
How do you ask that question?
Mel, are you a rape girl?
I am.
I am.
I don't even know how to respond because I'm just.
You just came from the black journalists of Canada and Cleveland conference with Rebecca.
Maria Sharaba.
What the fuck is going on in here?
I just heard it for the first time, so I'm like processing what they just said, and I'm just like, I don't know how to respond.
He's not going to get at you if you comment.
That's what you're concerned.
We will fry him up.
I'm not concerned about that.
I just don't know.
I'm just processing what I'm saying.
I'm $150,000 ain't paid while and out
so they won't cancel the show in Stockton.
From the risk and litigation for the money.
What do you feel about that?
Risk and litigation sound like the last place you should take.
These tickets need this.
It's risky.
For a while and out.
For a while and out.
That's some sick old shit, but I'm here for it, Jason.
I'm here for it.
But she's still stunting.
No, I mean, don't worry about it.
It's fine.
I get the why he did it, but you still can't do it.
Why he did it.
Again.
Wilding out is a hit.
No, but okay, if it wasn't, obviously it wasn't a hit there.
If the show was threatened to be canceled due to low ticket sales, and we've already had other shows canceled.
But look, if we've already had other shows canceled.
You haven't met Big Face.
Let me tell you the trick.
This is a trick, Freeze.
The promoter said that the ticket sales was low.
The promoter called and said, yo, I need an extra buck 50 to run this.
If we've already had shows canceled here,
now when you get, if you, if Ish is getting ready to do a tour and your booking agent, yo, yo, Stockton, they don't show up, we're gonna skip Stockton because
cease and desist ish tour.
Do a tour.
You can't do it tour.
Cease and desist.
I'll fucking
Joe show up, too.
That's the funny shit.
Hey, I'll cease and desist the shit out of that.
That is, niggas.
Go up there with tonight's conversation, niggas.
Try to get a little something from something.
Hey, go up there.
Because you know it's going to be some relationship shit.
Mandy, I'll bring a bow and arrow for Mandy.
Hey, I'll bring a special little BB gun or some shit.
Go up here and say something.
Go try to get a little chin to watch it.
It's from the jump.
What's the shit we have?
Airsoft shit.
And this is, welcome to the stage.
It's from the jump.
Yeah, great time to throw a green joke off there.
So stupid.
Yeah, you're an idiot, bro.
She still ain't telling us what she wants.
Mel.
She ain't gonna say anything.
I love Mel.
I was making, I was networking.
That's what I was doing.
I was networking.
You just walking around.
Yes, I was.
I was walking around.
Holy shit.
I was walking around and I was meeting and greeting people.
Sure.
Yes, I was.
Took a lot of pictures.
Yes, I did.
What is this?
850 episode?
The 850.
I'm going to to watch this again.
Don't you worry.
You know, I jinxed it too.
I said,
800s has been killing 700.
Oh, yeah.
Watch this.
We got Cleveland journalism and Vegas tourism for you.
Let's see, let's see, let's see.
All right, Jason Lee, we got.
Oh, all right.
Let's do it.
Let's do it.
We was talking about dusty New York niggas.
Or dusty.
Or niggas that look dusty in New York.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was that.
It was that.
It was that.
Yo, you niggas is looking dusty and you're not saying that.
I wish I could tell you.
I wish I could call you out by name, but some of y'all I love.
Well, shouldn't you be able to call out the people that you love when they look dusty?
No.
Call out?
Publicly?
No, publicly, that's not true.
I can talk to you.
That's how you treat people you love.
That's why your friends.
That's not why your friends be getting out of there.
You can't do that to people that you love.
So we started by talking about niggas that look dusty and don't know that they look dusty.
Yeah.
And then I tried to progress the talk by saying
if you're if if you if you was dogging your lady out
and your lady leaves you and go and actually finds a good man that she's happy with your sauce points get deleted.
You you minus a thousand sauce points.
You kind of automatically dusty.
So if she got to go get with a bum nigga, then you stay at your swag level.
Yeah.
But if she upgrade,
if she go get happy with someone that is actually better than you and doing better than you and looking to improve, your dust meter, your dust rating
has gone up to like
3,000 now.
Yes.
Stop me when I'm saying something wrong.
I'm saying something wrong.
You're not saying nothing wrong.
You look real crazy in the public.
You will look nuts in the public.
Because you really look like it was that that motherfucker the whole time.
We got to define what dusty mean.
I thought y'all was talking about life.
Let's do it.
Like clothing.
No, I was talking about clothes.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
We was talking about the thing.
The nigga that we was talking about looked dusty.
Dusty is an aura.
Yes.
Yeah.
It could be both, but yeah, I agree with you.
I agree with y'all too.
This is your clothes.
It's when niggas don't put the hair lotion in their braids.
When niggas don't use
beard butter.
You can just tell when niggas got the fucking bullshit lotion, the scentless, scentless CBS, nasty, dusty shit.
You can tell.
Yo, this is not an elitist conversation either.
Good lotion is $6 instead of four.
It's not in the leaders.
Okay, well then that's dusty as an appearance, but what's dusty aura?
Niggas could walk in with the most expensive of clothing and look dusty.
Is dusty aura desperate?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It's not desperate.
Like, looking like a drink,
they drunk.
They put that shit on.
They're dusty, yo.
Yo, if you're outside every day at 47, 48,
you do have a little bit of that sewer juice look on you.
Desperate.
That's not desperate.
It's not desperate, though, because you might not be surprised.
I'm thirsty.
Man, what's up with you?
I don't think it's...
No, we're not trying to say that.
Why are you saying that?
It's neither of those things because you're not necessarily looking forward to it.
It's because Because you specified an age.
You said if you out here 47, 48, da, da, da, da, that's why I chalked it out.
That's why I'm drawing the comparison: like thirsty, desperate, dusty.
No, but you, I'm not trying to say that.
I'm just trying to say these things have a different look to them at our age.
They do.
Okay.
Okay.
You don't have to be searching for something.
I don't know why you at say less eight days a week.
I don't know.
Right.
You might be having a good time.
All of that shit
could be fun for you.
The look of it.
That's crazy.
It's dusty.
It's dusty.
It's crazy.
It's dusty.
Yeah.
It is.
What else is dusty?
Some of you niggas' fucking security be dusty looking.
It look like, it do look a mess.
Nigga be with the baggy black shirts.
The faded shit, too.
It don't get Chris Black no more.
Them young niggas got the security, boy.
And we're talking about niggas, but
now that we we made it like an age-appropriate conversation, there's a 48, 49 dusty look for the women, too.
No, nigga.
It's an age thing.
It's a 42 and up
dusty look for the women.
Yeah, you should just be living a certain way.
All that shit, Corey, be drinking.
What's the soy shots?
What's the green?
What's the little green, healthy shots?
Wheatgrass, weedgrass.
Wheatgrass.
Wheatgrass.
What's some more of that little healthy shot?
No.
Turmeric.
Just regular water, turmeric, hey, water, drink.
My folks don't drink no water.
They'll be out too much.
Do you think it's that niggas just have a midlife crisis, Joe?
Like, niggas have nothing else to do.
Meaning, like, I feel like a lot of times I was just telling POTUS that niggas is stuck on what they used to do.
Yes.
They don't advance or they're not trying to work to get into a new realm.
I'm with that.
I couldn't agree with you.
I think time, yep.
And I think niggas be stuck.
It's time and habits.
Time is hauling ass.
And
I can speak for the men.
Yo, dog, you've been ducking relationships, you've been ducking settling down because you were selfish and you was out here doing your one-two thing.
Now you look crazy at 47 standing on them couches.
See, and you look insane, my nigga, standing on them couches at 48.
And you feel like if I'm not visible like this, the love I got is going to leave.
Bro, who the fuck wants to be?
No, you in the house and you ain't got nothing to do.
No, I'm talking about you.
All your shit got you.
So now you don't got nobody to just come over and chill and watch a movie.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, yo, you lonely.
Niggas be outside every single day.
I think trying to appear young and lit when you're not young is setting yourself up first.
Yeah, but why don't them niggas?
It's talking about y'all that's not in relationships.
I don't even think y'all situation ship correctly.
I think there's a way to even do that.
Fly and age appropriate.
Where, hey, this is who you're into.
This is where you invest in.
This is picking you up, helping you, holding you accountable, keeping you in on a snowy night, making you some chili.
Y'all just didn't take it.
She doesn't
proud.
She made a face.
She didn't agree.
No, I'm just saying, doesn't this like kind of fly in the face of everything that you say when you talk about like the younger chicks are looking and want the older dudes?
Yeah.
But you're talking about these older dudes being at home lonely because they still have Peter Pan syndrome.
Yes.
How do the two things
go together?
I don't understand.
I don't understand either.
I don't understand how the two things go together.
Help me out.
You're saying that like 47, 48, you didn't progress in age, you didn't settle down, you're still out here, da-da-da-da.
But then when we're having conversations about like how women after a certain age are, you know, kind of left alone, but men don't seem to have the same problem, that the younger chicks are going for the older guys,
it just doesn't make, it doesn't line up.
That could be part of it, though, is where
just because a younger chick might want to fuck with an older dude, that don't mean the older dude wants to settle down.
A lot of these dudes don't want to settle down.
They've been running running around sawing their shit.
That's what I picked up from what he was saying.
For mad long, and now you feel stupid at 50 outside every day.
And I know a bunch of them.
Yeah.
That'd be outside.
Just dating young girls, just didn't settle down with anybody, right?
That's what I thought he was saying.
Yeah, like you had options.
It's a lot of women that was dissing niggas in their 20s, dissing these niggas in their 30s.
You got to about 39.
And outside ain't the same.
You look crazy being outside every night, even as a woman at 41 and 42 years old.
But you look crazy in fucking blue on the Hudson every single night.
I want to add on to this point because what you said, I agree with what you're saying, but it could be taken wrong.
We not talking,
it's nothing wrong with being single, being single and putting yourself first.
Right?
That's what Jayla just said.
If you put your, I don't,
damn, Jayla.
Every time I dance, come up.
That's what she just said.
If you putting yourself first and prioritizing your time and dating with intention and using the good lotion scrubbing your feet right fucking getting massages and shit treating your body the way it's supposed to be treated hey we ain't talking to you we ain't talking to you we're talking about the people that's just failing all over the place so the whole picture look dusty but even that's i think a couple even that's a crockery i think a couple i think a couple of these niggas are trying to keep up appearances they feel like i gotta let i have to still look lit even if it ain't really lit And the only way to really do that is to be outside and show y'all every day.
And that's my problem.
That's sending the wrong message because none of them niggas is lit.
To being say less, not lit.
None of you niggas is lit.
Y'all not lit at all looking like that.
It looks a hot,
it looks deodorantless.
That's how it looks.
At rusty breath.
It looks like it ain't a dove, a dove in sight.
At what age?
It looks like when doves cry.
At what age?
You admitting Prince was looking a little...
No.
At what age should they stop doing that?
Oh, women or men should stop going to the spots every night, going to restaurants every night.
I'm saying all this shit.
I have the exact opposite stance when me and my girl fight about this.
She be trying to say, you dusty, nigga.
Look at you outside.
I'm like, girl, shut up.
But yeah, you need somebody to let you know when you're looking dusty.
It ain't cool.
Seriously.
You said, what's the age?
What's the age, man?
Tell me.
It's about the spots, too.
Like, you could be outside every night, but go to some fucking regular
classy vibe you should.
A lot of these niggas feel like they can't be regular
if you outside every day you ain't taking care of yourself you're not in the gym you're not drinking green tea dog if you drinking liquor every day period and not at the doctor two and three shots a day liquor every day
i'm just giving an example damn yellow you're doing pretty good if you're doing that liver not even really getting a chance to and niggas don't drink no water nope nor do they stop at two or three yeah no it's a group of y'all from i was thinking about this right when i was looking at these dusty niggas
i was like
what are the pivotal ages
for
men, right, in their life?
And what I came up with was
your decisions from 18 to 25.
Yep.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what the whole wrestler
are going to mold life.
You get a little low.
And I want to say again
somewhere between
35 and 34 and 40.
No, you got to go to 30 to 30.
26, 26 to whatever is important.
30 to 35, you should be making some real fucking.
Like 26 to 33?
See, to me, 30 to 35, you could fail a little bit.
If you entered your 30s, not having it together, you could take them first five years.
But 35 to 40, 41,
those two stages to me are going to pretty much set up what your life looks like.
And see, I feel like if that, that earlier, that, what you said, 18 to 25?
Yes.
If that foundation is fucked up, you kind of on the wrong path already.
You can correct me.
It's hard to correct, though.
I don't know.
I don't agree.
I feel like you fuck around 18 to 25, 26, 27, even.
But you learn.
But then 28, 29 comes along, you're like, oh, shit, here comes 30.
And that seems to be a time where people are like, whoa.
I think Joe discredited the 30 to 35.
I think the 30 to 35 is second base.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think that's what we're supposed to be buckling down.
I think you're supposed to start getting a plan in action that you're going to try and execute at early 40.
Ish, when does it hit these niggas, though?
When does it ever hit it to go in the house?
Go in the house.
I think they hit them at.
I think it's hard to get it.
I think it hit them already.
No, I think it's hitting them at 40.
And they ignored it.
Yep.
And they fucking hit it.
They don't know how to fix it.
Because I don't know life without it.
I don't know the other side of that, and it scares the shit out of me.
So I got to do this.
We sound like judging motherfuckers right now.
It's not about it.
I am judging each other.
I'm not judging nobody.
That's just real shit.
I'm trying to tell them the the truth.
You niggas need to go to restoration hardware, Bob's furniture, somewhere.
Restoration hardware.
No, they can't.
Go buy a love seat.
Go buy something to make you want to sit your hot, dusty ass down in your house.
Nigga, watch Wheel of Fortune, the soaps.
Find you a good something to bend.
Man, just get a hobby.
Why are you outside?
I say all the time, just get a hobby.
These niggas smell like mosquito bites and off.
Yeah,
Centronella.
Yeah.
You niggas is in the club smelling like Centronella
and looking the opposite of skin so soft.
You are an idiot, bro.
There's got to be a moment in which it hits you.
You know, like you look around the club and you're like, all right, I shouldn't be here anymore.
There's got to be a moment.
And I remember when that moment was for me.
Oh, but that X.
Shout out to you.
I remember when that moment was for me.
No, I do not be in the spots.
I do not be in the spots.
That's the point is I am not in the spots.
I've been in the spots for a long time.
But I think I was like turning 37 or something like that.
And I was in greenhouse and I was high as shit.
And it was my birthday.
And I'm, you know.
We was there, dude.
I was there.
I mean, yeah.
But it was just, it was the moment for me where I was just like, I was just kind of looking around at the crowd.
I was just like, I got to get the shit ain't for me.
This ain't for me no more.
It just ain't for me.
You know?
But then when that Waka and Roscoe came on i got out of that mold we got guy wanna verse came on all right it ain't for me with my foil yeah yeah yeah but no it's a it's a point that hits you when you look around and start looking at bitches jeans and they got the little gray in the white part yeah look like they had them on for a week
then a couple of the taz angels come in i'm out of here i remember
it's still around you start running into people they still around all the time and they don't even necessarily they just be out too
that should kind of start to see you And that was the thing, too.
That's the thing, too.
I was seeing.
That's New York.
No, that's being too mixy in the night life.
When you start knowing people, like,
you shouldn't really know them.
Yeah.
They're not in your life for real.
Yeah, from like 15 years ago in the club, I was like, nope, I can't be that.
If that's what he looks like, and I'm judging him, I got to get the fuck out of here.
Dog, today, I leave a spot when people are too happy to see me.
Yeah, me too.
I leave a spot today when niggas are smiling.
Two minutes at you.
Let me tell you where we go.
No, I don't.
I'm out of here.
That just let me know that I don't be outside.
Like when people see me, like I went to something in my hood a couple weeks ago, and it was 5,000 people there.
But won't go to a horror flick.
This sounds like a horror flick.
5,000 people in the hood.
It was an RB.
If it don't stop walking, what happens?
You're an asshole, though.
No, it was an RB house music shit in my hood.
And I went there and it was just people that I didn't see in mad long, even the niggas that's in my age group.
And I felt good seeing them because I don't be outside like that.
That's different.
So, Joe, like the differences between the two of that.
That's the difference between the two.
That's two different people.
Because something like that, Ish would just
be the exact politician right here.
You
would fucking die.
My social battery is drained.
You would never even go.
Because I don't know.
Because I don't, yeah, I don't be outside like that.
So your social battery is like a deep
shit.
The big one.
The rectangle.
What's the biggest?
He had the non-volume.
What's the rectangle?
Not the big lanes.
Yeah, yeah.
With the spring on it.
With non-shorty.
Told me you was a triple-A.
Oh,
man.
But I was wrong for kissing on this bitch.
Oh, but I was wrong.
I got me some of that sugar, nigga.
The brown sugar.
Oh, man.
Nah, but these niggas do.
And the chicks.
Anyway, sorry, audience, that we went to
the diatribe.
We'd be very judgy up here.
I'm judging people in their 40s.
Judging people is one of the funnest past times, really.
I don't be with it.
But I just observe.
I don't judge.
I'm not judging, but I can see it.
You judging.
You explain how these niggas is.
A nigga with the wheelchair with no disability in the airport.
You can't judge.
Shit.
You can't judge.
I'm judging everybody waiting online.
All right.
All right.
New music.
New music.
New music.
Let's do it.
Let's do it.
There's a lot that came up today.
Where y'all want to start, man?
The good, the bad.
What are we doing?
God does like ugly.
Jiz's shit.
Jid's shit is hard.
Jid's shit is hard.
Well, we talked about it.
Check Patronies.
Subscribe if you're not there yet.
I love Jid's album.
To me, it's a album of the year contender.
Yep.
I'm not saying I'm putting it above anything yet, but
it's in that mix.
It's in that mix.
I came in here and said I had high expectations for this album.
And if this album met those expectations, it was time for a conversation.
I do believe it's time to start putting his name in them conversations.
And this album is, I'm with you, a definite album of the year contender.
Like straight through.
This is a fire, fire, fire album.
And it ain't just because we talked to him like...
Yeah, it was fired before.
I didn't
final word with you.
Exactly.
This is just a great album rapping.
I like that he got records where I slow it down a little bit.
I'm not.
I'm a great technical rapper, rappity-rap, lyrical miracle, but I'm also doing this over here.
here.
There's some shit over there for the hoes, but let's just say it like it is.
Yeah, he's got a Thai record that's fire, he's got a Jesse Reyes record that's fire, and then he's got a bunch of records where he's rapping his ass off.
Yeah,
and it is great.
Go check out our interview.
What y'all want me to play?
Um,
you could play because I'm trying to think of what we played on the show, which doesn't matter.
Um, that was the intro.
We played the intro, we played the intro, we played community that featured clips.
Uh, you could play VCRs, VCRs is that shit.
That Vince verse is unbelievable.
From Rosewood, all around the world.
Brought to you by the same niggas that gave us a spree.
Reminiscent of the deaths of Oscarville.
Vengeance.
From the ashes of Tulsa, we present to you a colossal
look.
You want a piece of that American pie?
Probably humble you.
Want that nice crib in the hills?
Real comfortable.
You're Juliet.
I'll be Robert Yo Montague.
My mama said me fooling around with you is irresponsible.
I don't have power and money, dude.
Try to monopolize you like the man with the monocle on his eye.
When I pass, go, give me $200 and shoot the fives.
I'm from the six, no devil shit.
Prince of Egypt told me looking like through heaven's eyes.
Seeing evil shit was regular, we recognize.
Tarashi and Common couldn't get the guy to testify.
They wear wives and camouflages espionage.
Hopping to the rise, a hell cat with a vessel.
A guy cops probably stop me anytime.
They feel jeopardized.
Pull me to the side.
I go IG live.
If I feel in danger, I'ma up.
Let's go, Jim.
Hold me down, dog.
Have my back and just protect my spine.
And if they at your neck, just know it's record time.
Only one shot can cause a second line.
One, two, three niggas riding through the city with their scrap on.
That shit is fire.
It's fire.
Vince versus
get the Vince verse.
I didn't want to cover that right here, but yeah, it is.
It is what it is.
The album is really, really great.
Again, our interview with him, he was amazing.
Go check that out.
But there's a lot of new music, too.
I mean, we got a Tiller album.
Okay.
We did get the new, the first of two Bryson Tiller albums.
This one is Devices, which is actually the second disc from how it's laid out.
I don't understand.
We got a rap Tiller album.
Yes.
That's the best way to put it.
Not for me.
Not for me.
Respectfully, friend of the show.
Not for me.
I knew the, I saw, and i try not to judge this way i saw the track list and the feature list and features and i was just no not i just said okay this maybe he may be doing something different than what i'm expecting or than what i love bryson tiller to do right
And I ain't mad at him about it.
He came up here and said, listen, I'm a rapper.
I'm an MC.
I love this shit.
I can't see life without doing it.
All that shit you want in MC.
So cool.
I want him to feel whole, pause.
R ⁇ B is my bag.
Yeah, and I mean, I'm not even mad at the art.
He can rap.
Yes.
I would just like to, if he's going to do the rap album, I would like it to be a little more rappy.
It felt like a weird in-between place that didn't execute for me personally.
But there are maybe some people that love it.
Listen, I met you by delivering arguably the most impactful album of last decade.
It's up there.
Kind of invented a sub-genre.
It'd be tough to figure out an album that had a bigger impact last decade than that one.
At least from black people.
I don't know about no white albums.
I didn't think they ain't really got the most right now.
It's been a rough conversation.
That's a good one.
I'm trying to think.
Trap 12.
Trap Zole 2014.
Trap 12.
Was that 2014?
I don't remember.
Somewhere there.
It might have been 12.
Anyway.
But anyway, you don't matter.
Listen, I'm waiting for the next joint.
I know he's going to go crazy.
Even though I'm not mad at him and Ross.
I like that record a little bit.
I'm not mad at the him and Ross record.
I'm not mad at the him Palazzo and T-Payne record.
Oh, yeah.
I'm not mad at that record.
I like that one.
That's my one that I those are my two records on there.
Exactly.
Everything else, I'm going to wait for disc one
of this project.
But shout out to Bryson Tiller, friends of the show.
And we'll be seeing him because he's on a crystal.
You're goddamn right.
So we'll be seeing him right now.
And if he gets up there rapping, I'm bringing my bow and arrow.
I'm bringing my BB gun.
We got Prima Rock Marciano, EP slash mini album.
I don't know how they're classifying it, but I love it a lot.
If you're a fan of them gentlemen, they delivered exactly what you're looking for.
Um, that juicy J tape is hard, bro.
My sleepers from the juicy J tape.
Oh, we don't have sleepers.
Yeah, oh, if we don't have sleepers, I'm playing this record right now.
If we don't have sleepers, I'm playing this record right this second.
Nobody really safe is my shit on there.
There's a there's a lot of really good records on there.
Hold up, moo, doo, doo, doo, doo.
And y'all told me to.
I'm so mad.
I didn't.
Oh, I still didn't listen to it yet.
This is so sick.
This is so sick.
Uh-huh.
Shout it thick as gumbo.
Ass sitting on jumbo.
Head of some pussy.
Bitch, I want that combo.
Before I put my dick in, strapped up like Rambo.
Been that shit over, girl.
I can see your camo.
I'm friendly, screaming Lesco.
Pussy like it's Metro.
I was outside with this sword in the car.
I went on the road, I was like,
hands on the head, call it Lemon Bar, yo.
Pussy, but tonight.
I'ma treat it right.
I promise not to bite.
I'ma beat it up, baby, fuck being polite.
Beefing with that pussy, so you know it's on side.
Get the work, she gon' suck it till she broke.
Know she got the head, she got a counterfeit first.
Your nigga won't be smoke with me, I know why he mad.
Bitches with two baby daddies at the S cat.
King of the jungle, let your pussy come and tag me.
Club it with the cutter type of spice.
All that ass bustin' out your pants like it's finna pop.
She gon' suck a nigga out his socks.
On a movie drop, shout it dick is gone.
Dog, this is Juicy Jet.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what I was thinking about when I was listening to this album?
Is
they never put him in the conversation of best producer MCs ever, and he is.
He's in that conversation.
He should be in there.
He's in the top five at least.
No argument from me.
Maybe we're gonna be talking about impacting.
Oh, let's go with.
Let's go, Wiz.
Let's miss together.
Let's go, Wiz.
Like a nigga in the stands, I be throwing bands out.
My wiz came up here this year.
Let the person that she came with told me I'm her man now.
Went to Google for my name and band out.
Shit, random every niggas planned out.
And they almost ran out.
I want some dick shit.
Sorry, niggas dumbo.
Ass in the dome.
That shit is fire.
That record is so hard.
That tape is super fire.
Head on the swivel.
It's out now.
Tape is fire.
Through and through.
We also got a new Mozzie album, Intrusive Thoughts 2.
Mozzie fans, you already know what to expect.
This is that.
It's this exact same shit that Mozzie gives us, which I tell y'all all the time, I don't always be wanting people to step out their bag when it works.
Right.
Like some people, okay, cool.
Get you, you're doing the same thing.
Mozzie is gutter, street,
hard wraps over great production.
Um, we were doing sleepers, I had to sleep off of this.
Shit, I played one last pod, but I'll save it.
You know, I don't like deluxes, but we got a deluxe of Life is Beautiful, Alchemist, two Chains, and June.
How many, how many new joints?
Uh, two or three.
Uh,
this
okay, I guess they want them first from the sensei.
Most of these niggas like ointment, been gay.
I'm sold.
James might be my favorite rapper.
If I ain't handle my business, I'll be backpelling.
If I ain't open up a business, I'll be backpelling.
Crackpelling, blackfelling, pack selling, crowd shooter.
Bucket seven, I'm screaming hallelujah.
Pat Deruga, ruger way before I was a product.
The only kid that the trail recruited.
It's all the posts that move me early, and I must salute it.
I gun salute it.
No niggas that then drive by and buster you with.
A thin line between flu dial and prostitutin'.
I fuck her with my tula.
I get a lot of money.
Rappers keep making that point.
Yeah.
A proper piece, multiple
PCs.
On this truck, you heard me talk, multiple PCs.
You hear me?
Change, man.
I like what, because he sounds like he's just having a conversation with Chains.
He's gone.
He ain't even rapping.
He just be talking to you.
He was gone.
I love it.
I feel it.
We had all these niggas up here.
That's what I'm saying.
Oh, yeah.
We had Change up here, too.
We did.
I love that we had these guys up here and they out there showing their ass paws.
I love that.
Absolutely love that.
This is a fire year for raps.
The summer has still
a lot of shit to drop.
Finally.
Finally.
It was a slow first half of the year, but this last couple months has been heat.
Thank God.
Not the song I was looking for.
One of these, oh, oh, this is it.
Oh, yeah.
This gunner?
Yeah.
I ain't listening to Gunnar.
25 tracks.
I said
I gotta wait.
No.
Is that what it is?
It's one.
Yeah.
I copped it, but I ain't listening to it.
yet.
Oh, yeah.
Yes, sir.
Stones in the chain.
I gotta play this in the morning.
Yes, I heard it.
Rumors amazed.
This is pain.
Buying my game off that gunner.
I took my tail at the turtle villa.
I took your bitch in the Dion Medilla.
I used to to back him up and back him silly.
She wanna bust out and skit him.
Ayy.
Dog out the killer.
Hey.
Can't create your boy in Silla.
Yo, none of y'all niggas beefing with this boy can fuck with him right now.
I don't know who's beefing with him.
You so stupid.
I don't know.
No, no, no.
They should just leave him alone.
None of y'all that have a gripe with him
can do nothing with him at this particular moment.
Yo,
saying ever.
Hold on now.
And I'm going to say, hold on.
Okay, because I might, I don't know what you're saying.
Sorry, no, go ahead.
You were right, too.
You called it as far as thug and gunner relationship.
You said all that is smoke and mirrors, but when it came to business, when he brought him out on stage and stuff, you called that whole thing when a lot of people was like, Yo, Thug ain't gonna mess with him and none of that.
I just wanted to acknowledge, I saw that the other day.
I'm sorry, Freeze.
No, no, you good.
You said they can't mess with him now.
They haven't been able to mess with him since he came home, pretty much.
Yeah, it's been
on a run
for a couple years now.
It's almost like y'all needed
you could drop that almost like
we're gonna tell the truth.
Yo, this shit is so hard in the car, though.
I think that goes right into this.
Oh,
nah,
Smooth gummy don't be missing.
This album is what the Bieber album was to y'all.
Come on, man.
Cabinet and stop.
I'm with self-seedable range, follow like a track hot.
I wanna do dress at this cut from a hole in the clock.
I never get petty.
I ain't petty.
I'm a real boss.
They count big fatty, you can tell where a nigga walk.
Look at the way you keep stepping there, pen.
Hear me really talk.
Kind of be limited at all times.
Early morning when I get a call.
I took that nigga.
Listen, man.
Man, y'all gotta be aware of it.
Cause by the minute, it ain't hard to see who win it.
It ain't hard to see who win it.
Look, I stopped my gutch.
Can't take her image.
Catch me ever planning.
I don't get offended.
I don't get a feeling.
Listen, a lot of songs on this Gunner Project.
If you haven't made your way through the entire album, it just came out.
I totally understand.
There's heat on here.
A lot of heat on here.
I also understand if you're saying that some of the songs early on, maybe one through three, one through four,
have the same kind of vibe.
That's a turn off for some people.
For me, it is not.
If you are really, really, really good at your vibe, then by
all games,
produce.
Albums sometimes should have the same vibe.
I'm not mad at that.
I'm not necessarily with the mixtape album shit that we get.
Yeah, all over the place.
Just not cohesive.
Something for everyone.
I mean, it's dope when it's executed, but I'm also okay with it being, hey, I bought Gunner and he gave me Gunner.
Hey, I bought Alchemist and Gibbs, and they gave me Alchemist and Gibb.
Like, I'm okay with that.
That's what I was saying about Mozzie album.
That right there.
Yeah.
Like, I got it.
exactly what i wanted to get from you right we talked about bryson and
i'll pay that one we talked about bryson and it was like all right this is not what we
wanted from you somebody might like it but that's what i mean exactly right what i give gunner credit for is you clearly are at odds with the label.
Everybody knows this is the last album on said label, and you still handed in 25 quality records.
Unheard of.
Mike can't not make quality.
Unheard of to me.
Right?
He might have tried to give him a bad album and it didn't work.
That's never good anyway.
Yeah, yeah.
And you don't want to step on your own brand.
Yeah, you don't want to put up bad tape.
We used to.
Yeah.
We used to.
Because we just wanted to get out the deal and this is fucked up and our fans will understand when we come back with the next project.
They 86 that way of thinking and they were correct.
You should not do that to them.
Gunner,
great project.
And the other thing I like about him, I ain't really heard a peep from Gunner
about nothing.
Yeah, he loves you.
He ain't talking.
I'm putting out heat.
I'm doing my tours, my shows, and then I'm going.
And all them niggas can't fuck with me, and it's quiet.
It's quiet.
You let the work do the talking.
That's my point.
Just let the work do the talking, dog.
Gunner is doing some like Atlanta Kendra type shit.
He is.
I forgot how silent he's been.
He's at the work.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
He's been chilling.
Mad low-key.
Bro, it's been about two and a half, maybe three.
Almost three years.
He's almost three years now.
Yeah.
Three albums.
Not a peep.
Came out, got out that contract, went right to work, working out, looking great,
traveling, moving like he's supposed to.
That's how you keep your head above.
Not looking dusty.
Not looking dusty.
We probably better off telling you who not looking dusty.
Most of the field is looking dusty.
Gunner don't look dusty.
No.
No.
He looked like that.
Good exfoliation.
What else?
What else?
What else came out?
This guy's a girl, yo.
Oh, Mel.
Why are you keeping looking at my phone?
Why do you do that?
I'm sorry.
You can't even help yourself.
You're right.
I can't.
I'm sorry.
And you talk about me when I'm in the middle of the day.
And you do.
Yes.
It's this joint feeling.
You look at this whole thing over here.
You look at my phone.
I look at his.
Your joint feeling.
You get a lot of shit on that book, man.
more than fresh.
Tip over the best.
Saw girls, saw girl, India Sean.
Lucky day.
Cause you candy boulevard.
This is about.
If we were doing sleepers, I planned.
Till we begin to be losing your mind.
Sweet baby.
Wait a minute.
Things that we could do.
Won't be long until we get to it.
cut it
for the fall.
Cotton Candy Boulevard and you're phone and on DSPs right now.
I can't cut it off before lucky day comes on.
I can't.
Ego.
So far, when you get like
the moon.
God damn, lucky day, nigga.
You don't bring your ass on
the ball.
God damn it.
Not but nothing, this feeling's too strong.
And we can't beat it.
Forbidden if this moment could ever be wrong.
Right won't sway my
You get the point.
It's heat.
That's how it's buy it.
That's how it's done.
Buy it.
It's out there.
In your phone, and on DSPs, India Sean, Lucky Day, Cotton Candy Boulevard.
Mel just sent me something about is this out?
Mm-hmm.
You want me to play it?
I mean, it's new music.
I didn't vet.
I don't just play shit on air without
that ain't enough.
That's enough for you.
See, I bet more than you.
I I need more than that.
Don't be afraid.
You just have the male co-sign the play on the Mel.
Answer the question.
No, wait, hold on.
It literally is a question.
Is there an artist that is so dope to you that they get an automatic?
I got a whole list of this way.
Dope to you may be different from dope to me.
For me.
Leon,
I can see Leon Thomas's name and I'm gonna I know I'm gonna love what I'm listening to because I love the sound of his voice.
You know what I'm saying?
Or, like, or you could have because you are, you was on that stage.
Because you are RB head.
Yeah.
No, not necessarily.
There's nothing.
A highly functional RB listener.
Ish, what are they trying to say?
Yo,
you are
a highly functioning
RB head.
Nah, for real.
That's funny.
That was crazy.
But to answer your question, Mel, there's people that I will purchase just off the strength of their name, but in terms of playing on air on a broadcast without me hearing it, nah.
Okay.
Maybe whole.
Yeah.
That's it.
It stops it.
Oh, it stops it.
Not Black Thought, too?
Oh, shit.
No, I would bet the Black Thought record, but shout out to Black Thought.
I got to tell the Black Thought.
There's a couple that I heard.
It was playing.
You'll play Kendrick.
You'll play.
Not without.
I'm not going straight on to.
Kendrick without.
We were crazy.
Oh, you're bugging.
I'm about to get during the beef time.
Okay.
Any of that we playing, but even that, some of that we listened out there.
On air without putting an ear to it, just putting them in the middle.
I'm not doing that.
Let's see what Mel wants to hear.
See?
Butterfly.
And this is.
This is well in her bag right here with this.
High as hell.
Space.
for the day.
Hold on now.
Hold on now.
Okay, Mel.
Okay, fucking Mel
Mel trying to go laundry, man.
That's so bad.
Spin cycle.
Washing.
You got it directly from the source, huh?
Via text.
I saw that.
I read your whole conversation.
Oh, somebody texted us right too, huh?
Him.
No, he did not.
Yo, that wasn't bad.
But that's what Mel be doing.
Mel just needs to stop texting.
Hey, I'm on the show right now.
Send it to me.
I'm going to get a plan.
That is not what happened.
We're in the midst of the news.
You are such a RB songstress, yo.
A highly functional song.
You are such a brilliant
songstress.
This RV has a left on.
Anyways,
that does sound like he does.
I'm going to get it some purchase.
That was nice, Mel.
Shout out out to him.
I'm gonna get this a purchase.
Let's see.
We went over weapons.
We went over Jason Lee stealing from the risk and litigation fund.
So wild and out still happening.
Let's see.
We got nothing on there, bro.
We went over music.
We did Shakari.
We went over dildo's.
Albie Shore's new book, Mark, put that there.
He's not here to tell us about it because he's sending morbid texts from vacation.
Is Vegas dying?
I don't know, Joe.
Is it?
Who gives a fuck?
fuck?
Who cares?
We're going to move on, man.
Anybody see Cam and
Cam reply to Gilly, and Gilly replied to Cam, and Cam replied to Gilly,
and Gilly replied to Cam.
I think it's over now because Sierra, we got to have a talk about Sierra.
Because Sierra
pointed out that Gilly was in the move, bitch, get out the way video, and he was dwerking.
Y'all didn't see the clip?
I didn't see it.
That wasn't him in the video, though, right, Joe?
I don't have confirmation on that.
I hope it wasn't.
But it may have been.
He didn't deny it.
Wait, that was really.
I saw the clip.
That was really.
No, that wasn't killed.
Let's find the clip.
We don't need to find no clip.
Look at it on y'all time.
Because what is it going to do?
It ain't going to help y'all look less stupid in the face.
I got your sitting here listening to you.
We don't know.
We don't know.
That's hilarious.
Cam treated it like it was him.
Right.
And
put a book into that, but I think Gilly has responded.
Gilly, I love you, so I'm not talking about that Sierra shit.
But Sierra, I think Sierra has like an emasculation camp.
Keep going.
Didn't from the gym shit?
Jim, and now this is just waiting on strike three.
But it seemed like she's just visiting
our niggas, our Marmacho niggas, and just throwing some
girly wrench in this shit.
Like, yo, if I ever dwerked, don't remind me of it.
If I ever did it in a ludicrous video, I don't think it's your place to say, or that ain't something, that's like the Merrow compliment.
Oh my God, remember when you was in that band?
I love that video you did when you was dwerking and the Sierra shit that nobody in the world remembers, but I do.
I do.
So now everybody runs to the clip.
Sierra is on bullshit.
You know what I think?
And I think that that's New York Sierra.
Since this nigga came to the Giants, Sierra, this wasn't Atlanta, sweet, kind, and pure.
Sierra is on bullshit right now.
And nobody knows it but me.
I think she got a too comfortable thing.
I don't know.
Like, she just gets, because she's so, everybody loves Sierra.
You know, she don't really get much hate or nothing.
And when she come around, it just be, I'm so cool and comfortable.
I could just get off some shit that I probably shouldn't even say.
Because ain't nobody
said nothing to her about it yet.
Even when we did the gym shit, that shit was foul.
Yeah, Jim didn't think so, though.
But that's my point.
No, Jim was classy.
He was classy.
No, no, but I spoke to Matt about it.
He said that he thought that he didn't know why people were giving Sierra a hard time.
He said, if anybody's gonna tell him about getting married, why wouldn't it be her?
She's married.
She's in her relationship.
And, you know,
got it.
Yeah, I dropped the footage.
Well, in the event.
Did you?
Well, let's see if he has that response if a dude does that to him.
A dude that's been married for a long time.
Yeah.
Slight with a Kirk Frank.
If Jonathan Majors crash his interview, say, yo, why are you not married, homeboy?
You don't think.
Maybe not.
I think you should be married, nigga.
Let's see if he's like, yo, Jonathan Majors is a good dude.
Marriage has been on my mind.
Let's see.
These niggas is full of shit.
Jim, you full of shit.
I'm done with these niggas.
He said that.
Jim is full of shit.
All right, cool.
Hey, marriage.
Go Sierra.
The Dwerk shit is foul.
What is dwork?
Use your...
I mean, just.
All right, Imani.
You're very well read.
Take two words, put them together.
I'm curious to hear what the dwork soundtrack is about to be.
It's your time to shine again.
Now, this did get you two in trouble the last time we dropped it.
But
nigga won't even hit the dwarf for you no more.
You really ruined it.
You blew it.
I don't know what you did.
Like a flat.
We can't never talk.
I don't know what you did.
Nigga won't even word.
Nigga won't look a direction.
Shit.
Yeah, they be in the bathroom.
He gonna hop away.
Man, what?
What?
I'm drooling on you.
That nigga don't go to the elevator with her, nigga.
No, for real.
He's just looking at his phone.
I'll wait for the second elevator.
Oh, my God.
Mel.
Do we not have a part of the show?
Yes.
I saw you looking at this show.
What did you do?
Can we read parts?
Hey, guys, my name is Melissa Fruit.
I have figured out what dwerking is.
Go ahead.
Let me tell you what I did.
I want your opinion, guys.
Especially parts.
So, that works.
See, and
that would take this episode out of you.
You know what, you guys?
I need your opinion on something.
She would never do it, though.
Am I the drama?
Oh, shit.
Oh, shit.
Here's the scenario.
Oh, we be going.
We be going.
Melissa Ford.
Does she want to come in here with the Cleveland Canadian black journalist shit that she didn't speak at, that she's just walking around?
I'll be speaking next year.
So you.
Mel, that award show, that journalist convention will be defunct next year.
It will snow.
Yo, dog.
Yo, boy.
Yo, I thought you were going to get a shit.
Cleveland Climbins.
That's how they got you.
Yo, next year we're going to get it.
We're going to fight you.
That's how they got you with the Gracies.
What the Gracie?
Hater.
You said you're going to win one next year.
You said you win one Gracie.
No, I did the Gracies fly.
But you did say you're winning one next year.
I said a couple of things.
But why?
A few awards.
But why would a nigga not dwerk for someone?
Like you?
Like, can you think of it?
I'm not even going to ask you.
When's the last time y'all dwerked for for your girls?
Oh, in Turks?
In Turks, when we were trying to figure out what dworking was?
So she showed me first, and then I did it, but I was doing it with my eyes.
No, but I could see.
So she was like, nigga, I can, I can see.
Can I get some dick moving?
I'm like, nigga, must she is sleep as hell.
Was moving, mom.
What's moving?
Oh.
You making jokes about my relationship?
Oh, you made jokes about me dworking in my relationship?
Nah, man.
I'm playing with a lot of these sides.
He tried to fry me up with that Patreon, though.
Y'all thought about that at home.
That nigga, y'all, I wasn't.
He thought about that at home, man.
It wasn't even smoke.
I wasn't even, I was just making a joke.
He said, nigga, I'm ready right now.
Nigga, I'm ready right now.
I've been thinking about you.
I'll fry you up right now.
Yo.
He's like shit to the max.
He's like zero to a hundred.
He's taking it to the max.
He is the walking embodiment of zero to 100.
He is.
Mel, why would someone like you are a sex symbol?
Why would a nigga?
You used to be a sex symbol.
You just a symbol.
You cool.
Why am I with somebody?
I'm just a symbol.
I cannot figure it out.
I don't know.
Come on, Mel.
Just give us something juicy.
Why would a man your imaginations run wild enough
to do that?
And my cousin.
Leave me alone.
Leave me alone.
I thought you cancer this.
Leave me alone.
Yo, which cousin?
Leave me alone.
You still got cancer?
Yo, which cousin?
Hey, guys.
This is me, Melissa Ford.
Shout out to
the Bronson podcast.
Listen.
She be on Cameo Lip.
We do have a part of the show.
We do have a part of the show.
What's up, bro?
Help some people out.
Let's go.
What the hell?
Yo, Flip, Change your ring.
That was me.
I was about to say that.
That was not that.
That was nice.
Y'all have very interesting ringtone.
That wasn't a ringtone.
It was.
All right, this is from somebody named Whittle J.
Whittle J89.
What's up, Bill?
What's up, Whittle?
Whittle J says, hello, JBP.
My sister is 38 and has always wanted children, but she's never had a healthy relationship.
Her current boyfriend is a drug addict and a thief.
Oh, okay.
This girl's white.
Whoever this is, this is white.
While she doesn't use drugs herself,
she's epileptic and gets tested at work.
I can see how much this man is draining her.
She's lost weight, and though she seems to be in better spirits some days,
she used to be harsh and mean all the time.
I fear she's just trying to hold it together while settling for someone who adds nothing to her life simply because she wants love, stability, or family.
It seems like she's settling because she's afraid of being alone or running out of time.
I'm two years.
I'm two years younger than my sister, and we haven't spoken in over three years due to a personal fallout.
I'm really worried about her, but I don't know how to reinitiate contact.
I don't want to come off as judgmental, but I also don't want to stay silent while she's stuck in something that could be damaging.
Has anyone been in a similar position, trying to reconnect with a sibling you cut off, especially out of concern for their safety and well-being?
How do you reach out without reopening old wounds or making things worse?
Wow.
Yes, I have.
I've been in a situation with a sibling that I cut off.
I came and told y'all that we recently reconnected.
You can't do it without
opening those old wounds, though.
That's the first step towards the reconnection, though.
Like, y'all going to have to get that out the way.
There's no way around.
It's like a dressed elephant in a room type shit.
With enough time has passed, hopefully y'all could be in cooler places and y'all can talk.
And once you get that past, y'all can rebuild y'all relationship.
You about to cry?
You good?
No, I'm not about to cry.
He started stumbling at this.
I'm perfectly fine.
All right, but did your voice get shaky?
No, I'm being sincere as I'm speaking to the niggas.
That's just
your voice get shaky.
It's a little shaky, bro.
It's not.
It's not shaky.
It's nothing wrong if you wanted to tear up, Freeze.
Nigga, you didn't want to acknowledge that.
You cried at birds don't say.
I didn't cry at birds don't sing.
Did barks cry?
No, nobody cries at the bar.
But I was crying at the bar.
That's some white shit.
Crying at the bar.
Yeah, that's absolutely white therapy.
That's lemon drop.
I don't have no advice for you.
I think you should mind your fucking business.
And if you was my sibling and I was running around happy with my drug-added significant other, then yeah, I cut you off for a reason.
Every time you popped up, you was on some positive bullshit.
He cut her off.
He could, yeah.
By the letter, By that, he cut her off.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
And now he's seeing her and he wants to reconnect.
No, no, don't reconnect.
Stick to
whatever you was on.
Whatever you was on, we still on that.
Don't come back, Jay Whittle.
Where is your girl?
Don't listen to him, though.
Don't listen to him.
Don't talk to your sister, though.
Yo,
your sister's not answering the phone.
Tomorrow is a promise.
Yo, normalize identifying the family members that you never want to speak to again ish did
that's not a good joke i don't mark did i don't like that statement especially a nigga that's about to mel did mail cut niggas off hourly
and we don't care never say nothing about it but some of them approached me oh
never
some of them step to me outside and i don't be knowing the teeth because she don't tell us when they cut off
you gotta stop jamming niggas up like a lot of shit you gotta eat somebody they stepped to you too they told me i was like i thought y'all was still cool.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Smell don't play.
We're talking about okay.
See, you always do that when we yeah, I know that because you guys could
tell me on the balcony.
But we can't do that.
You know what?
It's it's like the songs that you don't want to play until you vet them.
I gotta vet what the fuck comes out of y'all's mouth.
See why I need to vet?
I went and played this song you sent me.
It's a rap song.
Anyways.
It's a rap song with Lucky Day crooning in the back.
See why I don't let these niggas text me music?
No, not.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh my god.
Anyway, Jay Whittle, mind your fucking business is my advice to you.
Nigga, you ain't minding your business.
You about to go to family fucking reunion, nigga.
You care about family.
You ain't gonna mind your business.
Oh, no, I don't have any family I don't speak to.
You don't have any family members?
Is there any family I speak to?
I don't have any family members that I don't speak to.
Yeah, but if it was like that.
My crazy cousins I speak to, my crazy aunts and uncles, my drug addict family members I speak to.
Imani knows something good.
I don't have any family members I don't speak to.
you were talking to, Addie, brother.
That was a moment when he did that bullshit, but he apologized.
He apologized.
That's the same thing.
Yeah, this might be the same kind of situation.
Huh?
But I was ready to ride balls to the wall.
And not talk to your brother Bamboo.
I'm ready to not talk to niggas for the rest of my life.
With your balls to the wall.
It's a saying.
That's a weird way to ride.
Yeah.
I got that lime green thing on the wall.
Shit with a selection cover.
I don't agree with niggas like y'all.
All of y'all.
y'all.
That don't talk to family, that don't want to, man.
Come on.
Tomorrow, how does it promise?
I don't.
I'm not going to be able to do that.
If your sister's happy with her drug addict boyfriend, then mind your business, nigga.
But that's the thing is, he's really
dangerous.
He's not happy.
Shut up.
What is your advice then?
Is that I won't speak to my uncle or give him the car?
Ever.
Car, go.
See?
So you should.
So what advice do you lie, Bella?
You more open your old wounds.
Sam,
if your sister is going down a dangerous path, you should definitely address it and speak to it.
Whether she listens to you or not, you can at least say, yo, I made a gallon of...
But they don't talk.
Oh, no.
So he's trying, his question is, how do I reinitiate it?
Suboenax her.
Sepoena her.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
What are y'all talking about?
Text her.
No.
Bump in door at the grocery store.
Pop up over the house.
When she at work, though, let drug addict dude answer the door.
Talk to him like you talked in this little email.
That's a good point.
That's That's a good point.
Let me see how thorough you are.
Which drugs?
I was about to say, depending on the drug, that can work out for you.
Hey, tell it the old boy.
Stop writing fucking
John's.
You can't tell.
No, no, you can't do it.
No, crackhead, leave that nigga alone.
Crackhead nigga.
Slide the shit out of you.
But if you got a nigga, you got that fink.
Slide them.
If you really love your sister, shoot him, nigga.
All right.
Wait, he alive?
He was doing your sister wrong.
He breathing.
Lucky, I ain't got no sister.
Oh, my sister's 11.
Can you really watch your family go down a dog hole with the guys of minding your business?
My family is the dog hole.
What the fuck are you talking about?
Niggas get on these bonds and act like they have healthy families, and y'all don't.
No, we don't have to do that.
None of y'all.
No, stop trying to sound like that.
Y'all families is black holes.
Oh, you said your family's a black hole.
Not mine.
That's why you can go to Portugal.
You can go everywhere but Virginia.
Get your ass.
Take your ass to Virginia.
Come to this Chris Brown show, nigga.
It's in Virginia.
You coming to Chris Brown show.
You in Portugal.

Bring the camera.
Reclaiming you back.
We're going to introduce you to your cousin.

Because you'd be doing that, reuniting people with their family.
Yeah.
Bring to see my man.
He better go home than see.
Nah.
See what?
Hey.
Did you know that?
Hey, speaking of reuniting, you better go.
Hello.
You talking about me?
Oh, no.
Wait, who the fuck?
What the fuck about you, dude?
Oh, shit, I'm reunited.
Watch your fucking motherfucker.
Thank God.
I got you.
She be listening and she be checking me on shit.
That'll be highlighting shit that don't need to be highlighted.
It'd be wrong.
That is fucked up.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
What'd you just say?
He be highlighting shit that does not need to be highlighted.
He does not.
Wait, wait, say that one more time.
I can repeat.
If you he highlights shit that does not need to be highlighted.
The other day I was driving down from the camper trip.
My wife called me, Bring.
Yo, why JR not with you in the van?
Why are you in the van?
Yeah.
No, nobody was in me in the tent.
I was in the RV.
Just me and JR.
No,
I wouldn't do that in front of JR, but she's being
meaning that I would never do something like that either.
But especially with JR, I wouldn't play like that.
You slept in the RV with who?
By myself.
And she accepted that answer.
She trusts me, yes.
JR is there.
He was on the R.
She said you slept in the RV by yourself.
I did.
Where was JR?
He was in the camp.
In the tent.
He wanted to be in the tent.
He was filming.
It wasn't no nice, cute bears in the tent.
No, listen.
I was so far away from people.
The only way you can get to me is by driving.
Huh?
So what I'm saying is that JR had assumed that.

That's just Joe being Joe.
Now.
Oh, that line's not working.
No seven.
