Enjoy the show.

That was crazy.

That was crazy.

I'm going to be hating today.

Yeah, that's why I hate it.

That was kind of crazy.

Me saying that you don't have the greatest freestyle ever.

No, what you said was I'll

say if I know what I'm talking about.

He's a motor.

I'm somebody.

The mic.

Oh, yeah.

Are you going to go?

I can see it.

No.

No, no.

What I told you.

We're actually late.

Yeah, the facts.

We're late.

We're late.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning, everybody.

Welcome back.

Hey, hey.

I'm so happy to be here.

Now, back to the hater.

Ms.

the hater.

Not a hater.

Joe was hate, though.

Joe is a great rapper.

I got to tell you something.

I've always appreciated Joe's talent.

Okay.

I just don't think he has the greatest freestyle ever.

I think that was filmed once a bad thing.

I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

There's nothing wrong with that.

But

it was the dismissive nature.

Yeah, without even knowing the freestyle.

Well, somebody else was saying, hey, I think this Joe Button freestyle is the greatest freestyle.

That's exactly.

And they're entitled to say that.

And once somebody says that.

No, no, no.

A lot of people don't know that they fucking some shit up.

But I'm not talking about Mark.

I don't know.

But people don't be knowing when they're saying some shit they ain't supposed to say.

Yeah.

That's true.

But some opinions, like, I would be like, that disqualifies you from the conversation.

But at least if you're familiar with what they're talking about, because again,

it could possibly be that.

What is the greatest freestyle?

Black thought on flex.

Now, to some people,

black thought on the flex.

Yep.

And

I die on that hill.

And I'm not mad at that.

Was that 2019?

That was recent.

2050.

All right, 50 anniversary.

What was the greatest freestyle ever before that?

Because that's new.

Rockefeller Invades Hot 97.

That's a good joke.

You might have it there.

He's only 16.

That joint?

You said free.

Even with all that still being on the album, so we all knew it was written, you still consider it that?

There's a couple.

Because remember,

when they came through Hot 97 that day, they cursed everything.

It was a few of them.

But I can tell you this: whatever it is, is from Philly.

I know, we know.

That's the real point.

Led by a New York nigga.

Yeah, led by City on Terry Gross.

They smoked New York so bad that they gave me the rappers that they led by a New York nigga.

You know what I'm saying?

The New York nigga opened the door and, you know,

grab him by the hand and say, come on,

show you how to get there.

Yes.

Because remember, Memphis Bleak brought his own rapper, he kept trying to make him go against them, and they was smoking him.

No, this was embarrassing.

Some streets you had behind that.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Have y'all heard the whole Grammy family freestyle?

I'm just curious.

The what?

Grammy Family Freestyle.

Jay-Z.

I don't know about that name.

I'm sure I heard it.

I think I heard everything.

Let's continue this conversation on

the Broad Street Daily Journal.

Whatever.

What's the Philly?

It's called the Daily Journal.

What's your Philly

Journal?

Bean Pies Daily.

That's a great name, though.

The Broad Street Journal.

Yeah, I didn't know the name.

Bean Pies.

Don't buy into this.

I don't want y'all to.

They're going to try to belittle us.

No.

No, no, no.

I'm not dropping.

I just don't.

They're from Jersey.

I just dropped it right

now.

Philly is Jersey.

What are you talking about?

Come on.

They told me that Camden was East Philly.

It is.

I say that all the time.

I didn't know until y'all told me.

Camden kind of.

Yeah, they can have Camden.

They used to call it Dirty Jersey.

No, it's not Jersey at all.

It's East Philly.

I don't want, because there's two of y'all from Philly, I don't want y'all to develop a connection.

Two of us.

You know, Philly people are going to, you know what I mean?

Philly people stick together.

And we're not going to say

it's anything

rude or ghetto, but if a fight breaks out, me and him back to back.

We got about a half dozen texts like, oh, it's a Philly pod now.

I'm glad they know.

Maybe four or five.

You clearly ain't talking about it.

I'm talking me.

I'm saying me.

Oh,

you ain't seen his MRI results.

We're talking about fighting.

That nigga shoulder bad, knee is bad.

Last week on the part, he was just sitting there and started charging.

Nigga, pulled a hamstring sitting.

He got a knee.

I pulled a number last episode.

I just didn't say nothing.

I just cried inside.

I did not get me two weeks in a row.

That was the craziest shit I've ever seen in my life.

You pulled a hamstring and yelled?

What?

He didn't yell in here.

I didn't yell.

He had a Charlie Horse from sitting.

He yelled.

I think we got some music to play.

We got some things to play.

No,

I ever ever heard Charlie Horse.

Yeah, because that's the thing about the Philly.

Like, yeah, Philly has infiltrated the Joe Button podcast.

That's true.

But the Philly, like, sports thing is going to.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

Hoopers.

Philly.

Hoopers.

Six and fifth.

Philly.

Six and five.

I can't talk shit about the Eagles.

The Eagles could win the Super Bowl.

The Phillies could win the World Series.

So we're doing all right.

We're doing great.

We're doing great.

Better than the New York teams.

For sure.

Yeah, especially if that investigation I keep calling for.

You're not alone in Kawhi.

Oh, please.

Shut up.

How y'all feeling?

Y'all looking good?

Feeling good.

Good.

Feeling good.

Feeling good.

It feels like a Friday.

It does.

It is a Friday.

Turns out.

Oh, well.

Well, I'll draw you back in about five hours.

Oh, yeah.

That's how you fill it in.

Oh, yeah.

That shit starts sitting there.

Y'all do look chipper and happy.

I'm in my head like, I'm getting

all the work in today.

We'd be out of here like 11.

Oh, shit.

Oh, it's mad topics.

I want to hear from y'all about all of this bullshit.

Look, y'all made plans for the night?

Not me.

Mona brought a homegirl here.

She's smelling good.

Juice in the building.

She's smelling good and shit.

Oh, they thought they was going to slide somewhere after the hour.

They ain't got nowhere to be.

The after hours.

You're mad as shit around seven.

I'm telling you now.

I hope you ain't hitting nobody talking about I'm in your city.

You're going to be mad at four.

No.

Four, you're going to be tired.

Seven, you're going to be mad.

Okay.

Around eight, you're going to start looking at me.

I'm going to start looking at parks.

That's when the cussing starts.

Under your breath.

Just keep it under your breath because that's just ex-Joe Wall.

That's true.

Oh, it makes it.

It makes it worse.

If you look like you want to go,

oh, my God.

He's going to find a topic.

You just make it crickets.

What's up with that?

You know, you just start talking about that shit for 20 minutes.

We work at Amazon.

Did basically.

But no, no, really, because Amazon, they get breaks.

Oh, yeah, we don't get breaks.

All right.

Enough of beating up the one place.

No, let me leave it up.

Go ahead.

Nah, nah, because y'all going to make that shit worse.

Y'all not making it worse for everybody.

We had breakfast together.

I was outside minding my business on a business meeting.

You brought Juicy to press me.

Hey, yo, nigga, what's up?

Yeah, you tried to violate me, too.

I thought about that.

Like, nigga, they want to share.

You didn't want to share, son.

You stopped my plate.

I never outgrew that from like second grade.

Like, I be stingy with food sometimes.

Yo, you can't do that.

You share with me.

You give, you know you don't.

You very giving.

And not share my food.

Shout out to the first and last time listeners out there.

Oh my god.

Yeah, yeah.

Probably.

That one felt good coming off the

I don't got to look at the rim.

Yeah.

I can turn my back to the basket for this one.

Take it right now.

Let's go.

Plenty of good nights with that person.

That's back when you still outside.

Who was that?

Before you close that, where's mine?

You don't have one yet.

It's your second day at work.

Whatever.

Whatever.

Last week, this nigga said,

you want to do a song?

You want to do a little song with it?

I said, yeah, I want this song's favorite song in the world.

He said, all right, you got on the camera.

He said, she thought I had a song, cut up, but I don't.

Fuck her.

We got to Mona.

I did do that.

I did do that.

That was bullshit.

That was bullshit.

We got a shout out for and flip and Mona.

And Mona, Mona, mona.

There we go.

I don't like the energy on it.

You know what it is?

I was thinking about this.

You're the only person with two syllables in your name up here?

Because it's like Joe, Parks, Ish, Ice, Flip, Mark, Mel.

Look what a PhD tone.

It's too smart.

God damn.

What the fuck?

It was one of my waves.

It was one of my waves.

You're damn

good.

Because I was thinking about how hard, but a little bit harder to do the thing.

I was look how dumb Mark thinks we are.

I was locked in

one day and I was thinking about this.

We could do Mo.

That might work.

I think that sounds better.

He calls me Big Mona, though.

And I like it.

Well, that's because when we met.

I put it with my presence.

Not a little dash.

Not a minute.

I was laughing at me.

Hey, Big Juicy.

How the fuck he thought she thought she was exempt juicy?

She thought she was exempt.

When we met, she was.

But

her presence looms large.

Her presence looms.

Mark Lamont Hiller's in the building.

Next to him, Big Freeze is here.

Big Parks is here.

Poe is here.

Corey is here.

Ericsson is here.

Happy to see y'all.

Happy to be here, bro.

Happy to be sitting here to be here.

Good, good, good, good.

Ready for a long day of work.

All right, first up.

And shout out to our people, our comrades in spirit who are not here.

We got, I'm sitting in

Ish's scene at Shrum.

And Mel's not here as well.

So the shout out to both of them.

Sending them both love.

Yes.

Yes.

See?

That's the problem.

That's the problem.

You make it weird.

This is why we can't get nowhere.

No, this is why we can't get.

No, it's just the listening.

You get nowhere to people, man.

Y'all were looking for some shade, and it's nothing.

It's just like.

I'm down with you.

Yeah, it's just like

both of them.

Y'all get quiet.

Too many words.

The less words, the better.

Shout out to them, man.

Got to get something off my chest, though, since we're talking.

Do you mind?

I don't mind.

I don't mind at all.

So yesterday,

two days ago, the Ian and Mark show came out.

And did y'all see it?

Yeah, I know y'all.

You got a nice little gym in the basement.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's a nice house.

It's not.

That's not the real house.

Oh, shit.

Well, the prop house was a big prop house.

The prop house is great, dope.

I wish that was my house.

It's not, though.

It was my basement.

You probably been to my house.

It's not mine.

It's not my house.

But anyway, that's not the point.

Point is, we put out this episode, which I think is one of our better episodes.

I think it was pretty funny.

If y'all didn't watch it, watch it.

And then people keep hitting me up thinking that the episode is some deep

attack on the co-workers up here.

No, that's what I thought.

Just because you're a piece of shit.

You're the executive producer, by the way.

Oh, fuck.

You got me.

So, it is like, just to be clear, at no point whenever we make these shows are we sitting around thinking about anybody else.

Specifically, if you don't watch the episode, the episode plays on the idea that I'm scamming Joe and Ian.

Got it.

I saw that part.

And that I'm faking workplace injuries in order to be off of work.

Mute up.

Oh, no, no, no, dad.

We got him.

Right?

Not that me slipping.

No,

no, honestly.

I should have saw that.

Oh, you're the hospital.

I should have knew it.

You know why you

know?

You should have been right at the door to meet you in the hospital.

audience that is unaware.

I don't think this is going the way you wanted it.

At all.

This is not going to be a good thing.

I should have said this before Flip got here.

The point is.

The point is

that wasn't what the intent was.

First of all, the episode was shot a long time ago.

Weeks ago.

It was written six weeks ago.

The photo of me in the hospital.

It's old shit, yeah.

It was from four years ago.

The photo of me in the hospital was from four years ago.

I didn't make a hospital photo

to mock anybody.

This is all very believable.

I'm not going to have one on dancing.

Yeah,

it's been on my Instagram for four years.

It's still there, right?

I love when him and Imani do this.

Yeah, words.

So, no, no, but you know, so I'm just saying, just so you know, the episode, which y'all should check out on Patreon on Joe Button Network, is dope, but it is not a shot at anybody.

It's all of it.

I would never do that.

Did you get blocked?

No.

Do you get a text?

No.

We good then, nigga.

No, but I want, I don't want the fact.

I'm getting response, enough of a response from the fans that I want them to tone down.

Got it.

Clear it up then.

I care.

You know what?

I care about the fans.

We all do.

I know.

I know you be on bullshit.

Clean up, clean up, everybody, everywhere.

All right, Mario.

You know that.

You got it.

Are you done?

This definitely didn't go according to plan.

It was immediately regrettable.

Awesome.

You just let me get away with that shit.

A.

I'm just trying to be honest.

I can't believe you're trying to make fun of my.

sitting next to that motherfucker.

He's dead.

Sitting next to that.

Your button is red.

But at least I'm not going to be able to do this.

Yo, button is red.

When you're going to hold motherfuckers accountable, this nigga is red.

I can't believe it.

I know he turned that color.

Well, see, y'all are part of the problem.

He's cracking the fuck up.

You were the only one I was with.

And you left me.

You fell.

Yo.

Please stop.

He became toxic.

Yo.

niggas became a music.

Oh, my God.

All right.

All right.

I love the story.

Okay.

Order in the court.

So, please.

That's when niggas respond.

Okay.

Enough.

Let's work out this Young Thug album.

That's always our transition, apparently, yes.

So, young thug.

Yo, I ain't gonna lie.

Hey, Golden Globes, we got the best transitions in the game.

By far.

They can't fuck with us.

So,

young thug.

Young thug.

Listen, it's a fucking.

Yeah, you go always tell when she call one of these niggas.

Hey, I'm gonna do it.

I want to make an announcement.

Stop it.

And they always do it right at the top.

Yo, yo, before all of this important shit that pays the bills.

Hey, I didn't get no call.

I just,

it came up naturally.

That's what I'm saying.

When I said Ish and Mel weren't here, that's all.

It just made me think.

I I want people to think.

No, facts.

This all felt super organic.

You're right.

Yes.

I'm done.

I'm done.

Thank you.

Thank you, buddy.

Thank you, man.

Organic Man of the Year award.

It's over, boo.

So, the Young Thug album.

So, Young Thugs album.

Highly anticipated.

This might be the first shit I put in the trash in a long time.

Oh, my God.

Yeah, I ain't going to lie.

Because I bought it.

I bought it because Cardi went absolutely crazy.

And

Can we start with how to pronounce it?

Can we start with the cover?

Yeah.

Or that.

The cover was what got me.

But he's known for doing wild shit with his car.

I was so thrown off.

The first person I saw post it was someone I know from overseas, like in Germany.

And I felt like

something was wrong here.

I felt like this was bad.

Oh, got it.

But then it was real.

A lot of people right now are mad at one of the songs where he's saying the N-word with the ER.

The very first

record.

There's a lot of backlash he's getting right now.

People are mad.

They're trying to boycott it.

Well, I saw it on Twitter.

What's the idea?

He was just on the record saying the N-word with the hard ER.

I don't want to say it on here, but you know.

The way he was saying it, the way he was saying it.

You look at the cover, cover, he's white.

Then the first song you hear, you hear...

You know what I'm saying?

I'm sorry, I'm slow.

Looking at the cover, I didn't think he was supposed to be.

He's supposed to be bleached, right?

Well, his eyes are blue, too.

Oh,

it's not just bleached.

It's not bleached.

I'm not sure what was scored on there.

Spice did that some years ago.

It's Thug doing what Thug does with his album cover.

Some shit to get niggas talking about it.

This ain't new.

This worked.

This is not new.

It did work.

It did work.

Since the purple dress.

Not just other cover.

The Barter Six, butt naked, standing there.

Like, he's been doing that.

He's about to go in, Joe.

I ain't nothing.

I'm not laughing.

I ain't about to go get it.

I don't fuck with it, but if I know what you're doing,

I know how to not fall for that.

That's what I was talking.

I saw, I said, all right, I know what you're doing.

So go ahead.

Just a lot of words for white face.

It's just a lot of words.

You don't even need that many words.

Did it hit you as white face when you first saw it?

Like, when you made me?

When I saw that, he made his eyes blue.

Then I'm like, because at first I just like, oh, you're on some nut shit.

But once you make the eyes blue, that means that, oh, you

dead ass.

Dead ass, you want it to be.

The eyes blew mean you dead ass.

Someone called me.

So then I heard how he, I'm like, all right, I can't wait to see how he makes this connect because it's art.

So I turn the album on and I see what he tried to do in track one.

I'll play it if I can remember the name.

Ninja.

Yeah, I'll play it.

I see what he tried to do, but I don't think

it resonated well?

Connected.

Yeah, I don't think it did at all.

So let's see.

This

is I'm not playing all of this.

You can just go to the end.

You see the shadow in the back of the room.

He's the one.

Yeah.

Here's Jadash.

Yeah.

Despite it, man, you nigga look up to us.

That's a fact.

Everything we do.

But everything we do is a translation.

Roll me up so stanky, fucking danky.

Yeah.

They follow us cause it ain't named we can't get.

Yeah.

Big but gates on the ship, I sank it.

Yeah.

Every time they played, we spanking them, yeah.

Want a woman song?

And she can't get a hold of you, she called me, yeah.

Only one left in Gucci socks in your sheets, yeah.

Talking calls, I got every animal in my fleet, yeah.

I chop out the beat,

I chop down the tree,

yeah, I'm kidding.

I'm sorry, yeah, I'm sorry.

I was back, I was looking for this at midnight.

I smoked me a little doobie to get in the get in the mood, and then by 12:30, it still wasn't out, out.

So I went to bed.

Yeah, I gave up.

What makes that bad is I got to listen to this first thing in the morning.

This is not first thing in the morning review time music for me.

No.

But this is the song where the ER thing came at the end.

It's at the end of the end, yeah.

But he's trying to do like a, like a little, like a white boy type of voice, right?

Is that what he's trying to do?

That's what it sounded like.

And then again, with the white cover, like, I don't know what you're doing.

Art is meant to be interpreted or whatever.

I don't know your angle.

I don't know what you went to do.

Up until that point, the song was all right.

Yeah.

Like, it sounded like like thug it sounded like some club thug music it wasn't it wasn't it wasn't terrible it wasn't oh this is the best in the world it was all right until you went that route now i don't know what your bowl was so i was like all right my nigga whatever you want you you you got it fair does does the album get better there's some joints here

for sure i like a couple of joints i like the ti record a lot i like uh

uh one of the mariah records was dope the little baby record was pretty dope to me um the luchi record was dope to me yeah the luchi one uh i like that there were some other ones some solo records i liked i don't remember what the solos yeah i don't remember the luchi song is so much bigger than just the song like that's a big deal right and there's two there's two of them because luchi also dropped his album and thug is on there as well i wonder who has the better song they did one of those type of swaps but luchi's isn't out yet right they're both out no yeah

i got you that was hot yeah that's what's up though that they collabed And production-wise, this is what I'm thinking.

Sometimes when these records come out, it sounds like one long-ass song to me.

No, it's a bunch different.

It's

which would be another issue i had with the album is it was a little bit all over the place in terms of vibes like it wasn't really like it didn't flow good to me naturally at all which was an issue with his last album then metro re-sequenced it and it was much better maybe someone needs to do that with this sequencing is so important with your album dog a lot of people don't get it it is they be busy putting this art uh this feature up here and you know what i'm saying what's going to get people to listen earlier yo the way your album flow is is i wonder was this planned or was this rush?

Because that interview went so big.

Like, I wonder did he just try to while his name was still around?

Did he try to rush and do it and finish it?

Or was it planned for it to drop right now?

Because that big bank interview went crazy.

It did.

I could see them try to capitalize on that.

But he's been announcing this album, court-sided to.

Yeah, they've been teasing the album for a long time.

For a minute.

Well, what the hell does that do?

A tease.

Who the hell is Atlantic spending some money on?

Come on, let's talk.

What these niggas spend money on?

For this album, you mean?

Yeah.

Carter feature.

Yeah, yeah.

They ain't spend no money in terms of promotion.

Travis features.

Some of these features probably cost a couple bucks.

Okay.

But I see what your boy is.

Marketing-wise.

And

that's a different budget, too, the feature budget.

Oh, you're right.

Oh, yeah.

I'm just talking about what they spent for, again, one of

the more popular artists to let people know that this was coming out.

The only thing I saw was a couple, I want to say maybe a month, month or two ago, he started sending spiders to

like media folk.

Spiders?

Because, you know, young thugs.

Like those packages.

It was like the little package.

It was real cool.

With the album title in there, and

that's all I saw.

That's the only thing I saw.

That doesn't sound like a very expensive markdown budget.

Back to y'all's cohesive point, right?

When I heard Whoop Dee Doo,

I thought that he that's when I thought that he rushed this.

Because I didn't feel like whoop-dee-doo

maybe was in there originally might not even existed

Like I don't believe that you and you know what hey check this out even if I'm wrong You know that means that you purposely turned whoop-dee-doo into some shit about tricking Yeah, and no way you did you took whoop-dee-doo from the interview and turned it into something about tricking

it into what you want

Yeah, which again but why not fuck it I would have had t-shirts already

man hit the Instagram producer that made the whoop-de-doo track that went viral already

the system put some bars on there and call it a day.

But this whoop-de-doo, I don't want to speak too soon because this shit might work.

Yeah.

But still, you just, you know, not saying, this just ain't it, even if it works.

I wonder what they want.

I feel like I would like this song more if he wasn't saying whoop-de-doo.

Yeah.

If it came out with whatever he was saying originally, because they just took that out and added Whipty-Doo.

Yeah,

you know what I mean?

That's what it sounded like.

They were saying some other slick shit.

You know what I mean?

And he just switched it out.

I do like, I do like on the news

records on here.

Press the hitches, we went through it like a mat truck.

Bitch, I'm the freshest at the gala, nigga, what?

She ate them up.

I fled it, my wrist, rainbow rolled it like a punch.

Tonight, we stepped on them, niggas tiny mask.

Do you know how I feel to see your face on the news?

Do you know how it feel to see your face on the news?

Do you know how I feel to see your face on the news?

I thought so, man.

That was the hook.

That was the chorus.

Yeah.

Look at y'all.

I'm a big Doug fan.

I'm underwhelmed so far.

I didn't get a chance to listen because I was traveling late, but I'm underwhelmed so far from what y'all played.

Well, do you answer them?

Do you know how I feel to see your face on the news?

Yes, well, you do.

You kind of radical.

Oh, yeah, duh.

Okay.

See you now.

I want to get the cardio cardio on this.

I do.

She calling me niggas on the news.

Do you know how I feel to see your swing?

There it goes.

There it go.

There it goes.

We fuck with tens.

Who is that, bitch?

It's just me and my friend.

Dark skin, light-skinned, bitch, we still twins.

Who's a bitch and sweaty?

Got it, winning since when?

Face extra large, seven big bodies ain't no seven balls got more diamonds than a deck of cars this nigga texting me he wants some extra

bust down say he wants a Ren, but he keeps scrub smiling

now.

I told you keep it low and you for cash, bitches.

I told you keep it low and you for op bitches.

What's the best I've heard of?

Once she begins to just describe her side of things, it does tug on the heartstrings.

Like, I told you to keep it low, and you fuck trash bitches.

I told you to keep it low, you started fucking the op bitches.

Crazy.

Like, niggas do be fucking the wrong chicks sometimes.

Like, sometimes your girl is all right with you being outside, and you're gonna go fuck the three, four shit.

Yeah, you could have kept it cute.

But how the fuck you laughing when I heard you getting beat on?

How to pay a nigga wait every trip y'all be on?

See,

she eating on this.

Gloves is off.

That's aggressive.

That's why you gloves is off.

Girls don't know how to play fight.

We ain't playing.

Well, where was he playing at?

No, no, I'm talking about this part that she had now.

Which is she's moved on from him.

Yeah.

She's now talking to somebody else that I ain't saying because they playing too dirty for me.

But god damn.

He deserves it.

Hey, you know what?

Fuck it, man.

That beef is never going to end.

He deserves it.

No, I don't think so.

Cardi and Nikki's never going to end.

No, no, she might as well be fucking Drake and Kendrick now, right?

Yeah.

You know what would have helped them if they just fist for it.

Well, they're trying.

One of them tried.

They're trying.

I'm saying just meet up and just fight.

You bring your dad.

We don't condone that.

They need to fight.

No, they don't.

They need to get that shit on.

And get that shit off their chest.

Men do it all the time.

Front men to go around.

Okay, we're tired of arguing.

Come on.

Go around back.

Nobody see.

If y'all was fussing right now, two of y'all go around the back, get that shit on, come back, a little sweaty, lip a little bloody.

But we passed it.

Now we talking about basketball.

Women ain't gonna do that.

And they not.

And do you think?

Them two not.

But I feel like

it was only one wider.

If they went around the corner and fought,

what you think is going to happen next time one of them get in the booth?

Right.

That's the whole point of the fitness.

Which I beat you up.

We leaving it behind the target parking lot dumpster.

That's what we leaving it at.

You don't move like that.

It don't work that way.

Yeah, that's old school.

i know you're talking about i know what you mean but that ain't gonna happen no no yeah that's old school yeah at the risk of sounding like a core

like the women don't know how to just keep it to the hands

they use calls and

these

will clap you out yeah that's true yeah i don't know how many women know how to lose a fight today

if you were cardio

they don't like losing arguments you know what i mean

like if y'all were one of them could you piece it up and start over?

If you were Cardi, could you piece it up with Nick?

If you were Nikki, could you piece it up with Cardi?

Because I feel like if I was Cardi and a lot of things that come out are true, I probably would want to hold that too.

Because it's like you, you didn't fuck me before you even knew me.

Like, that kind of lost the plot.

I don't even remember what this is all about.

With the beef, yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, I thought it was, and I don't bite my head off because, you know, but I thought it was just the whole idea of Nikki wasn't, she was real standoffish to the people that were coming, the new girls.

Like, that's how they try to pitch it to people.

But when people post proof of her being, like, you know, mean girlish or whatever, then what?

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

So, I don't think no line has been crossed where there's no coming back from, really.

Not about the other.

Not that I know of, anyway.

Somebody happened.

Jeezy Gucci made up

Lucci and Doug.

Anything can happen.

Here come the fans of music still rooting for friendships.

Friendships are important.

Dog.

None of these people give a fuck about each other.

Nobody is calling the other one to go bowling on a Sunday night.

It's not happening.

But you know what?

A problem, like,

I'm with you.

We don't have to be cool.

But I could also,

like, I ain't got to shoot at you no more.

You ain't got to shoot at me no more because it ain't even really us.

It's the people that fuck with me might run into the people that fuck with you.

And now something happened where

that's the history of hip-hop.

That's all.

It ain't nothing.

That's not the two that's really in it.

It's, I got 100 niggas that fuck with me, and you got 100 niggas that fuck with you, and three of them happen to run into the other five in the club.

Well, one.

Now somebody ain't going home.

Well, one,

we should get back to our young thugs.

We should.

Oh, okay.

Two,

I think that

they both got too much money.

And one of them fan bases are crazy.

They both got too much money.

One of them have a very dedicated.

cult-like fan base.

And the fans are a big part of the reason why this shit goes.

goes.

You know what I mean?

They call parole officers and shit.

The barbs don't fuck around.

Listen, and for me, they ain't been beefing long enough for us to be at that part of it.

We on year 39 of John 50.

On the guy's side, we got a few beefs that are ongoing still.

I think we seen that Gucci and Jeezy shit, and we just thought

all Glocks Down was happening nationwide.

You said who and who?

Jeezy and Gucci.

When they squashed it doing the versus, I felt

Gucci was so shady and nice.

Was it the most tense

deep squash I've ever seen?

That's just, yeah, they didn't do that well because they didn't even come off like it was even close to real Gucci.

I thought I was going to get shot in my bedroom.

Right.

Watching that shit.

I was a little nervous.

Gucci gave I hit another one of your friends.

Right.

Another one could get it if you run up here too quick, motherfucker.

All right, play the song.

That's exactly how it went.

That's exactly how he acted.

I wish this nigga would.

You know that look too good, right?

Play the song.

He's a bitch.

I'm a real street nigga.

Play the song.

Like, damn, Gooch.

Gooch came off real querious, shady, petty.

Nah, they.

I mean, but it's a little bit of a bad thing.

We're going to get back to Throst.

It was his life, though.

In that, we're going to get back to Thor real quick.

In that, what you're speaking to, they spoke before it happened, and he said, yo, this is what I'm going to do.

Oh.

They spoke.

It was an understanding.

It was an understanding.

Like, yo, I'm going to do this.

Yo, get your shit off, dog.

Oh, I wouldn't agree.

I wouldn't agree.

Yeah, and GC looked like mortified a little bit.

Because it still went further than he thought.

Yeah,

he can't say everything he's going to do.

He's like, everything.

He can't say everything he's going to do.

All right.

But I do need to let you know.

Let's get back to it.

I need to let you know

which hives we all are in.

Oh, yeah, I do need to know that.

That's true.

It's important.

Because I let you get the Nikki shit off.

I'm kind of.

You're a barb, right?

I'm in that hive a little bit.

Right in with them, but I'm in the bar de hive too.

I wrap all the girls until I think.

I'm in the bari hive in a barb, pick.

See, I disagree with that.

It's impossible.

I disagree with that.

You can be a Nick.

I'm a fan of Nikki, but I'm not a Barb.

You can't be a Barb and like anybody else.

You got to only like her.

Like, that's how they get down.

No, I disagree with that.

I mean, you're a bitch.

They probably let you.

But anyway,

Ice is in the Jeezy Hive.

Big title.

For sure.

President.

Are you the president of the high?

For sure.

For sure.

For sure.

No.

Oh.

All right.

Parks is in the diggable planets high.

For sure.

You, Okay.

So you're.

Solid.

He's in the J-Elect.

Oh, for sure.

Which is the same as the Diggable Planet Time.

No, it's not.

They know what it is.

No, he's in a different hive.

No, it's not.

Y'all people did J-Elect.

No, I'm also elected.

Joe.

We in both the highs.

Shout out to the C knowledge.

Shout out to

C knowledge.

Everybody in that high got a regular

knowledge last name or to God.

A lot of y'all got the last name of God.

That's what I'm saying.

If I diggable planet, it's C knowledge.

Who from Philly is a five percenter, just like Jay Lee.

There we go.

Yeah, it all connects.

Are there any other five percenters in the room?

No.

No.

No.

And I'm not a five percenter.

Touche.

You stopped?

No, just because I know that the original man is the Asiatic black man, making the owner of the five percent guy in the universe, don't mean that I'm a five percenter.

that's true.

That's true.

What to get on me the case for myself?

Flip, what hybrid were you in?

Queens High.

Queens High.

Queens High.

LL Cool J.

No, 50.

Probably 50.

50, Nikki.

I think just 50.

Yeah, it's 50.

Okay.

She didn't remember you on that.

Yeah, so I wasn't going to do it.

I didn't get it.

I dropped out.

I dropped out.

You told your paperwork again?

I had to.

Wow.

She said, what's your name again?

Queens Flop?

What?

Oh, man.

All right, so we don't have anything else on Young Though.

I have a question real quick, Joe.

I'm in the thug house.

Seeing that you talked about the sequence of the album, right?

Do you think that the featured guests care about the number that they are on the album?

You know, back in the days of the mixtapes, people would get mad that they weren't this high on the album, or they were on the A side, or they weren't like number one, or number two, or number three.

Do you think that artists care about that now?

Like features?

I don't think so.

No.

Because remember, that was a big thing when I was younger.

I remember that.

Yeah, I don't think that's happening.

Okay.

Now.

Maybe to some degree.

I don't think anybody wants to be on track 25, but.

So you okay.

But I don't know if there's like a fight for it in the same way.

It depends on whose track you're featuring on.

I think with someone like Young Thug, they, you know.

Lil Baby sounded good in this album, too.

He did, actually, yeah.

He did.

Lil Baby sounds good.

He did.

I know the streets be trying to say some other shit, but you still sound good to me.

No, the streets are right.

He sounded good here.

Damn, freeze.

What?

Freeze.

Come on, man.

God damn, freeze.

It It starts all sounding the same.

It's to the point where the streets, same streets he's talking about, is speaking that he's possibly talking about retiring.

It's looking like that.

I would love for him not to and get back to what we know he can do, but he ain't there right now.

Okay, freeze.

That's all.

How does this album do in terms of numbers?

What do you expect from a young Doug project at this point?

It's going to do well.

I think Buck 50 plus.

Oh.

Just because of the anticipation.

I don't know if second week is going to be as good, just because I don't think that it's executed as well as he probably should should have, but I think it's going to still do well just off the anticipation.

I just had so much high hopes because he dropped from jail and the one from jail was like,

I don't have double hopes for the numbers.

I don't have him doing 100.

Really?

I thought a buck 20 might be pushing it.

Even though he's fresh out?

I don't think as many people care that.

You know what?

I'm sure that.

I don't know.

I think thunder.

I think

that the consumer cares about that like the internet would lead you to believe.

That's what I'm saying.

And there's been nothing to make them care about that.

There's been no single.

There's been nothing that he's been doing to say a lot of people didn't even know this album was dropping.

Yeah.

I didn't.

And then it was supposed to drop last week.

Then he said, I'm moving it because of Cardi.

Letting the women have their thing first, and you drop the same dish Doja Cap.

The last one did 89.

So, yeah, you guys went for it.

The last one is going from jail, right?

With the courthouse.

Yeah.

Business is business.

That shit he said about Cardi was the first thing that let me know.

Oh, all right.

Yeah, I hear you big.

right i'm glad you hear that what a gentleman i look at the ladies i let her get a 200 off i didn't even get that because you moved to dojo's week who puts up numbers but she did a it's a pop album for doja though right super super pop it's like bro let me ask you a question ice do do you think that he has the kind of fan base that no matter what he put out they're gonna support they're gonna buy it because i that's why i feel like the thug fans we don't care we just it's it's him

i don't I think that he has a

hive.

That's what you're saying.

I don't think they're going to buy enough to push him up to the numbers that everybody's talking about.

I mean, it'll be listened to.

It'll be streamed.

I don't know Thug fans to spend money.

I don't know of a tour that Thug has ever headlined nationwide.

I don't know of

Murt.

I know he has the Spider line, but I don't see it like that

outside of influencers which have been given a couple pieces.

When you say that, you're saying like the clothes?

Yeah.

That's the Spider Love Hoodie.

The numbers in the ghetto.

Everybody got the Spider Hoodie.

They get the real ones or they get the ones from the

man over there.

Now, that part I wouldn't know, but they were really, really like

people like them.

Like, they're everywhere.

But you're right.

They could be paid in.

I ain't seen nothing that shows me he moves the needle like that.

I think Atlantic is just pushing niggas off the diving board and not really giving up.

Whatever happened,

Geronimo, nigga.

Let's see who does.

Let's see what we got over there.

I think that's with all of them over there.

I have nothing to back that just but my knowledge of record labels.

They ain't about to support shit.

I think it's Atlantic.

I think it's 300.

Whatever they're going through.

Somebody's missing from these Young Thug sessions.

What is this under?

Somebody's not there that used to be there.

You could be the biggest Young Thug fan in the world.

This music don't sound like what you're accustomed to.

It don't.

It don't.

It don't like that.

And we got to grade him on a curve because he depressed.

He depressed.

Or he just happy to get his friends back.

He just happy that fucking 21 is texting again.

And he like, we can't, we can't, we can't even really judge the music because he done been through so much.

So it's like,

this is just all around the board, just off.

But hey, Atlantic, I mean, Atlantic and Atlanta will love it.

Yeah, I'm about to say, the Thug fans I know, they're fucking with the album.

So

if y'all are happy with it, then that's.

And y'all told me when I said that, hey, maybe some of that gunner sauce could be used over there while we standing on our He's a Rat morals.

It's heat on them gunner albums.

Mm-hmm.

That's all I'm saying.

I know he's a rat.

Y'all don't want to talk to him.

He did the Alfred plea.

Hey, I would put the Alfred plea to the side for a second and at least get a packet, a pack from him.

I would.

I would.

When he says on a Big Bang album, I don't got my twin with me, I don't got nobody in the studio.

I thought he was talking about Gunner for real.

I thought he was too.

Okay, I'll make it short.

Who else was he talking about?

I don't know.

Shit.

I think he was talking about Gunner because he then went into how, and I lost this person not because they died.

Right.

The same thing Cardi said on that verse on this song.

She smoked that shit.

She ate that.

I'm clip riding now.

No, Gunnar first album, first out of jail, masterpiece.

It was so good.

It's so fucking good.

Like, rat schmat, he ain't telling on me.

It's 2025.

That's what it's about.

He ain't tell on me.

Let's be real.

He ain't telling me it's crazy.

I don't want to go off on a tangent, but like,

back in the day, I'm talking about our grandparents, you know, running around the streets.

Motherfucker might kill you for telling on them, right?

Us as kids, you get beat up, or at least motherfucker don't want to take a picture with you.

They don't want to be seen with you.

It's taboo.

Now, a nigga getting a picture, he just put somebody in the middle of them.

The rat be here, it'd be two niggas and the other nigga.

And that same person, I don't deal with rats.

It's bullshit.

People fuck with rats, especially if a rat got some money.

You good.

You safe in the hood, wherever.

And the people at home, because I said that somewhere else, people was fake mad.

Y'all could be fake mad all you want.

Look around.

These rats are all mixed the fuck in.

Every time I even had this conversation with somebody, and they, I don't fuck with rats.

I literally say, no, you fuck with boo-boo, Mookie, you know, like, everybody does it now.

It's just not as table as it used to be.

And everybody's so money hungry if a motherfucker buy you a pair of sneaks.

You know what I mean?

Nigga call another nigga twin.

You know?

Big bro.

Big bro on all that.

That's the fact we've been having up here a little bit because some of us have been like.

If you don't fuck with rats, you can't make music with them.

You shouldn't be even having them on your record label.

Or if you do keep a distance, other people are like, yo, this is a business.

No.

You know what I mean?

I'm on the side of, you know what I mean?

I don't want nothing to do with the person.

Right, because writing is a character flaw.

Ratting is bigger than telling.

The fact that you can have this relationship with a person and everything is good, but once the police come in that you'll turn on them, that's something wrong with you internally.

The ratting is just showing it.

So if the hottest artist in the world is a rat,

and they offer you a feature.

If you live by that code, fuck no.

You live by that code.

You also do.

Me?

Yeah.

No, I'm not in the streets.

Okay.

I'm not in the streets.

So if the world's biggest comedian was a rat and said, open for me, you'd be good with it.

You motherfucking right.

But how do you live by that code and be a rapper?

And that's the thing.

Maybe you can't.

That's the employment.

And that's the thing.

You got to figure out a way.

They have to figure out a point where they turn away from that shit.

You know what I mean?

You have to make a choice as a man or as a woman.

Okay, I'm not about this life anymore.

If you're rapping and you still in the streets, then you're going to still hold that code.

The reason why that code is not so prevalent to me, because years ago when I started this, I decided I don't want to be in the street no more.

So the code kind of gets, it gets blurred.

It don't even look as important as it is to you when you live a different lifestyle.

But at the end of the day, all y'all niggas niggas at home talking about y'all don't fuck with rats.

Yes, you do.

Look around.

Look at your leg.

Look in your iCloud from this past year.

See how many pictures you took with niggas that told him somebody, please stop playing around.

Everybody knows rats.

It's just, we're just in a different day and time.

You know what I mean?

Yo, what's the name?

I saw.

I think this is not official confirmation, but Nicki Minaj tweeted a picture of a CD.

And the date is 327-26.

Yeah.

327-26.

People saying that's a new album release.

Interesting timing to release it now.

But also, what do y'all think?

first of all do we care?

Are you

care?

Of course we care.

No, not about the new album, about that tweet.

Like, do you trust?

I guess what I'm asking is really, do you trust that mess?

Do you believe it?

It's really weird to announce a release date six months ahead of time.

And right after your fucking sworn enemy drops.

Like, why?

Yeah.

That's why people look at her like that, though, because she do shit like that.

Okay, you're going to try to get me out of my

bag.

I'm potting, Joe.

I'm potting, babe.

Talk to me.

That's right.

I'm potting.

And I'm in the mic, fuckers.

You hear me?

No, we're here.

Man, clear.

I'm in the mic.

Man, clear.

What do you think about that, Joseph?

About what?

What she just said.

What did you say?

I need you to take a stand.

Don't play both sides.

Don't just get by.

Don't be a miach.

What do you think?

She said that's why people don't fuck with Nikki Minaj

because she does shit like that.

And my question to you, Joe Button, is: what do you think about that?

People that have that take, it's understandably so.

I can see how they got there.

You can see how

How they got there.

See, huh?

The Madden is learning too quickly.

She has to become a kid.

Hey, you know what?

Yeah,

I'm announcing my album right in the middle of whatever that bitch doing.

The fuck are y'all talking?

Hold up for a second now.

Yeah, my mortal enemy, it looked like she's succeeding.

It looked like people paying attention to what she got going on.

Hold up, March.

Hey, I'm calling my engineer.

Hey, mix it.

Is it mixed?

Have it mixed by March.

And I'm going to

Twitter and I'm letting you know, hey, me who just sold out all these arenas

internationally and domestically, me who's still numeron around here in her brain.

In our brain.

She is.

In her brain.

No, she is.

She is.

She is.

It ain't just in her brain.

And you know what?

She ain't been dethroned.

I hate that about you.

I just put numbers on the board.

My last album to prove my point.

Yes, I'm tweeting that my album is dropping.

Sometimes these podcasters put out their opinions of things, and I want to go to Twitter and put the date, my next podcast is dropping.

But I don't, because I'm mature.

I feel like, and it's a Nikki defense, like, I can only

try to put myself in that place to how she feels because to me, she wanted a hottest ever, and they always put her in a girl group.

It's always like, oh, she, she better than this girl.

But it's like, she wanted the hottest ever.

She already put that down.

She's a legend.

And it's not no, it shouldn't be a girl thing.

And I know that probably, you know, annoys her, but you doing shit like that.

It's like, uh, why are we doing that?

And you know why I like it too?

Fuck it now.

Fuck it.

We out here.

Fuck it.

We out on the street naked again.

You know why?

Why did you say we?

I don't know what the fuck he said.

We went to the house.

We parked the ice.

They said nothing.

Flip ain't said,

put me involved in that.

It's that couch.

This is why I like it too.

Cardi just told

JT and B and them, hey, I'm going to handle y'all on my project when I get ready to.

Not when y'all are ready for me to.

And that's what she did.

So now Cardi comes out, and maybe

this is Nikki.

No, maybe.

Maybe.

So Nikki says,

I'll see you in the morning.

I'm going to deal with you on my album, and I fully expect that to happen.

But I don't think it'll be fireworks.

I don't think we're going to get fireworks from them, too.

I think we're going to just keep getting past and aggressive.

Just, I don't fuck with you.

I don't fuck with you.

And that's okay in music, too, that part, right?

I love that.

Don't keep wanting anybody to be friends.

Everybody hates each other.

I've been saying it for as long as this podcast has existed.

I don't fuck with you.

I don't like you.

No, you can't come to Thanksgiving.

Hates each other, though?

No.

A lot of these niggas hate each other.

Actually, hate.

Yeah.

It ain't just a dislike.

It's, I hate this.

I hate it.

And it'd just be like, I'm just waiting for them to just give me that.

I hate you, but I don't want to jump first.

It'd be a lot of that.

This is my question.

Why doesn't everybody respond to the diss when they hear that a person like that disses them?

Cardi B, this is one album.

Why doesn't everybody drop a 16 and say something bad?

No, I'm with my 1990s.

If y'all lucky I can't rap, I would have dropped this is for all the podcasters.

Now, look, to answer your question, though, they'll drop like, just like Cardi did.

i heard the y'all was saying okay i'm gonna drop when it works for me to drop this is still a business yeah making makes sense i'm not giving out no free vert like i'm gonna drop the diss over here kind of snow nobody did it well though yeah again

way to go young thugs congrats on your album congrats thugs

we love you so much niggas have talked about everything

but we got like one or two songs we talked about and then get an antidepressant don't be embarrassed to take an antidepressant i am gonna listen to it again at night i feel like this is much better nighttime music than morning music and maybe I'll feel a little differently, but probably not.

It's cool.

It's my roots.

I've gotten too much lyrical miracle this year for me to be able to go back to whatever you're doing on here.

See, I like that as the balance for me.

I usually do.

But

I couldn't hear it this early in the morning, though.

I like it when it's good.

I don't think this is him just at his best.

It don't sound like Doug.

Doug at his best.

This just sounds like he's going through something.

So again, you got to grade it on the curve because you know what he's going through.

Yeah.

Fair enough.

enough.

Is there anything else in music that needs our attention?

I mean, we got a Doja Cat album.

It's a pop Doja Cat album.

I skimmed through it.

It's a pop album.

It feels like a Sabrina Carpenter album with Doja Cat.

And it is

written by Jack Antonoff, who does Sabrina Carpenter and Taylor Swift and all the pop stars.

So I don't know how that guy ever sleeps.

He does a lot of fucking huge music.

Salute.

He did the Kendrick album.

Like, he does everything major.

It's not bad.

There's a scissor feature on on it, too.

It's a lot of 80s pop kind of vibes.

Yes.

If you're into pop music, you're going to like it.

Yes.

You are.

It's a solid album, but if you're in for something else, don't manage your expectations.

You're going to be disappointed.

Yeah.

Mariah dropped an album that kind of sounds like listening to

the audio equivalent of watching Peyton Manning on the Broncos.

Parks, I need something else.

What's that?

Oh, you don't get the football reference.

Her voice voice doesn't have the same power that it used to have.

No.

Play that.

Let me get that.

You're a damn lie.

Serious?

You're a goddamn lie.

I love Mariah Carey.

This is, I mean,

I think this is a record that might express.

I like the production, the songwriting, all that stuff.

I don't think it was great for her.

pretend so I didn't know for sure.

She almost sounds different.

Guess you're probably scared.

I'll let you go.

Okay.

Like, this is one in her prime, she would have absolutely smoked.

This don't sound like Mariah Carey, though, to me.

Yeah, right.

At all.

And what's crazy is it's not bad.

It's just like that.

Let it play at that volume.

Let it play at that volume.

Okay, gotcha.

Let it play at that volume for me.

My wheels is turning right now.

Me at a hook on this one.

I think I could be of some service.

I hate that.

Okay, here we go.

Turn it down a little bit, but I still want to be able to hear the beat.

See, I think that this song is fire.

It's just a writing issue.

Like, what I'm hearing, if I were Mariah Carey, it would go a little something like this.

Tell me if this fixes things for the fans.

Turn it up a little bit.

I wrote the Christmas song.

So fucking I own the Christmas song.

I think you motherfuckers forgot.

They call it come true, nigga.

On the Christmas song.

And it's almost that time.

It's almost that time.

Holy shit, it's October.

Check your bullshit out while you want.

You're right, you're right.

Does that fix it though?

That puts it in the back of the bottom.

Macy's parade.

Halloween parade.

They started the Halloween parade.

Guess how the next song would start?

For sure.

For sure.

Yo, Parker, they know who to not let own the Christmas song, boy.

Parks and stuff.

I would get a chance.

She just sounds really different.

She does.

Yeah.

Like, I just want to say that.

Nigga, make my wish come true, nigga.

All I want from the shit.

The opening song, she's singing like, I'm a bad bitch and shit like that, which, like,

Christmas song.

She sung the lyrics, I'm a bad bitch.

Yeah, something there.

I cannot imagine her singing bitch.

She singing.

Mariah has such a beautiful tone, uh, historically.

And on what you just played, it just sounds different because they brought it down.

Also, she's singing an active low.

Yeah, she sounds like an out.

Yeah, it's not as strong.

Oh, man.

But she's still a great singer.

How long do y'all want people to be able to sing?

That's a good question.

We just talked about Stevie the other day.

Like,

don't bring that nigga up.

That nigga is like.

The Stevie performance was like.

Yo, the Stevie disrespect, man.

I think he couldn't see the lyrics.

Stevie didn't know the words, man.

No, he couldn't see the lyrics.

That's like when I'm telling somebody the song, I'm like, yo, you know,

I have a strong hate for people that put the camera in their face and they rap a song and they don't know the lyrics.

I have a real hate for those kind of people.

You laughing, they tearing your ass up, too.

I hate a motherfucker that don't know the words to a song.

And then you'll do this, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Just mumble it.

Oh, my God.

It's so

wait.

My name is an ugly voice, motherfucker.

Listen to you.

Wait, leave her alone.

Leave her alone.

What?

Who?

My voice?

Leave her alone.

Mona could be like...

My voice is so beautiful.

It's so bad.

Who's the deep voice nigga for the tattoo?

My voice is so nice.

Now we talk more about it.

What song do you guys vote now?

What song do we vote now?

You get a hard time, motherfucker.

I think that's a song from Queens because he didn't know it.

I used to glid shit and come right back.

I used to be like, hold up, y'all.

Roll it up.

First of all,

it brings a lot of traumatic things back to me because I had a bad experience, Parks.

Do you want to hear it?

They would call my house and they would say, they would say, hello, is Wanda available today?

And I would say, no, my mom's not here.

And they would go, oh, is this her son?

Oh, shit.

And it used to hurt me.

I would yell back sometimes.

No, bitch, it's her daughter.

And that helped.

You feel me?

And that helped.

But at this point, at this big old age, I like my raspy voice.

I have a great rap voice.

If this nigga write me raps, we going number one.

Go like this.

If you write my raps, I get a BBL.

We can make some money.

What's up?

Or a halls.

Or a halls.

Easier solution.

Yeah.

Let's try the first step.

Or a hall.

I like my voice, nigga.

I like my voice.

It's going to be a long time.

Marsh Simpson.

You ever do both?

That's why I say, you sound like Patty yourself.

I sound like Marsh Simpson a little bit.

Yeah.

But it's deep, it's raspy.

It's like

somebody.

Anybody send a voice note.

I sent a voice note.

Excuse me to all the married people.

Come over here and get this pussy.

I will come.

That make you tingle.

I will come get a deep look.

Come on.

Voice deep in all.

All right.

Let me come get the deep voice, bitch, pussy.

That deep voice bitch.

I don't know what she would be in the forest.

That's that, though.

The only time it back for, I'll tell that story.

Yeah, you tell us later.

We have a very now's all time for something up.

Time to pay some bills.

What's the shit?

That pussy voice bill fucked him up.

You see?

Damn.

It's time for something.

Fix that fucking ad right now.

What are we about to do?

Fix that ad.

I'm still something.

Hold on.

This is my guy here.

Did you guys see the Ace Bailey news while we're in sports?

Yeah.

This is such an unfortunate thing that issues in here because I know he had a lot to say about

this situation.

He had a lot of analysis when we first started talking about the NBA draft, but it seems that Ace Bailey has officially fired his agent.

Yeah.

My question

is why now?

And why not three months ago?

Like why do you do it now?

More knowledge.

You learn more.

That little video went viral.

Yeah.

Which one?

The one with dude

crushed the waves?

You know the one.

That's been out for months.

But again, for those that don't know, Ace Bailey, the criticism of Ace Bailey's team is that they lowered his, the allegation is that they lowered his draft stock by keeping him away from certain teams, by not working out for certain teams, by seeming like he was only going to play for East Coast teams, specifically D.C.

He didn't want to play for Philly.

And I think New York was a team that he did want to play for.

There were a few select teams he wanted to play for.

Also, Ace Bailey is a basketball player.

Yes, I'm sorry.

Yes.

He's a basketball player.

He went to Rutgers.

Yes,

I want to say he's the fifth pick in the NBA draft to the Utah Jazz.

And there was a lot of talk around him getting rid of his sports agent, who I want to say is from Jersey.

Jersey, he's from Jerry.

He's from Jersey, too, right?

He's from Jersey.

Yeah.

And Ish has some type of relation to him.

So we would have loved for him to be here to get the inside scoop on this, but he is not.

And because I know Ish, I will not give my real opinion on this one.

What do you guys think?

I'll give mine because I don't like to play both sides.

I think that this, I think a couple of things.

One, Ace Bailey might be the greatest kid ever.

I don't know anything about him.

Everything I've heard about him is that he's a good kid.

So this isn't about Ace Bailey.

This is about sometimes having the right people around you to make the right decisions at the right time.

And it looks like whatever his team did from draft day forward was just bad.

It put him in a bad position.

I think it's going to hurt his reputation in the short term.

Is it surmountable?

Yeah, but right now, his team put him in a bad position.

They may have done amazing things for him before he got drafted.

And I've heard great things about his team.

I've heard great things about how they support young players.

I'm not coming for the whole team or even his agent in particular.

But what I will say is they mishandled the situation very poorly.

And I've seen this multiple times.

Remember when Ricky Williams got drafted back in the day in the NFL?

Oh, yeah, that was bad.

And he signed with Master P?

Yeah, that contract.

Woohoo!

Oh, boy.

It was an incentive-based deal.

Yeah, entirely.

Entirely incentive-based deal.

All of it, yeah.

As if no other agent had considered that before.

There's a reason why you don't do all incentive-based deals.

And again, we've seen bad representation happen multiple times.

And this guy, as I understand it, is not a registered agent in the league, which also is a flag for some people.

So, you know, shout out to Ace Bailey for making a different decision.

And hopefully this decision allows him to correct course.

He's 19, so he has a whole future in front of him.

Oh, for sure.

He can have an amazing career.

But right now, this is a bad choice.

Joe, you're in the music business, obviously,

and you've had representation before.

Have you ever had those moments where the people that got you there couldn't get you any further and you had to say?

It's funny that you say that.

I was sitting here thinking, I have a little bit of empathy for Ace.

One,

however, good or not so good of a sports agent Omar Cooper was, once the word is out about you, then that's what it is.

Kind of.

It's kind of a perception becomes a reality type thing.

One, two, from Ace's POV, it's tough sometimes to know when somebody has taken you as far as they are going to take you.

Yeah.

Like, it's tough to be able to

reconcile that.

So to the people that say, I think it was you that just asked, why now?

Yeah.

Shit, maybe that's why, right?

Like he was seen just last week.

I mean, not last week, last month at Dykeman Court together.

There's pictures of them two.

So I mean, they clearly were still somewhat close.

But why now?

Yeah, I think.

Yeah, it takes a while to reconcile.

Like I said earlier, Mark Knowledge, you learn more.

You get more of an understanding.

And when you go different places, people probably, a lot of people have been talking about, wasn't it?

Omar Cool.

Omar.

You know, a lot of people have been sharing their opinions on him.

And I don't think Ace wanted to be looked at as that way based off of his representations.

That's a really good point that both y'all make.

Because again, Omar could be the greatest agent ever for all I know, but if the perception is that he's not,

that makes it harder to navigate.

Have you ever read to do that?

When you've had to cut bait?

Like, like, remember that?

I mean, it's hard.

I mean, I know similar people.

It's hard to make that decision, especially when you live by a certain code.

Yeah.

Right?

It's hard to, even with somebody.

When you live by loyalty,

that's where the loyalty people come in.

That's why I agree with you on that.

When you say, like, I was always against what you were saying, but now I understand as I progress, I understand when you be like, man, that loyalty, because loyalty, that loyalty phrase, that word,

it holds you back.

It's an invisible tie that attaches two people.

And no matter, if you go five steps, they're like two steps behind you.

And that loyalty should be in perpetuity.

And I don't want none of my contracts in perpetuity nowhere on earth.

I want to be able to wake up one day and assess differently without being strapped to what I thought the night before.

In music, what helps with this is for the artists that have a hard time.

What helps is you managers can manage for the next 80 years.

That's a good point.

The artist can't.

Right.

That's a great point.

So I would assume that some of that does exist in sports as well.

You can be a sports agent for the rest of your life.

I have this small window where I have to make the right decisions.

Yeah.

And that little thing.

That always made me feel better about firing me.

I had a question with that.

Say about what?

Fire.

Yeah, I had to fire my agent one time and I didn't want to because I felt like this is the person that got me my first TV job.

And so I got to stay with them forever.

And it's like, well, if I get cold enough, he's going to cut me.

He's not doing it because he loves me.

He's doing it because it's good business for him.

And so once it gets as far as they can go, let me ask you a question.

And you know what else happens to?

I'm sorry, Ice.

You know what else happens to?

As an artist and maybe sometimes as an athlete, like you only know

the relationship with your manager as it pertains to you.

You always stuck in that bubble because that's the line of communication, you and your manager.

Very rarely do you know what the rest of the managers in the business

think of your manager.

Yeah, until you get drafted to a team and now you got a bunch of people that are probably your age, your contemporaries that are like, yo, that's what's going on.

Yeah, I should go like that.

Same with lawyers, same with agents.

All of that shit rings true.

Yep, that's how I found out.

I'm going to ask y'all, because back to the loyalty part,

with

an artist that,

a manager, whatever that may have discovered you, took you to this point, or the first agent, like the question becomes, how much, how long do I got to repay this loyalty to you?

Right.

You get what I'm saying?

Like, all right, cool.

You rolled with me for 10 years.

However, many years.

And you made a lot of money.

And

at what point are we good where if I decide to leave, you don't feel away?

Yeah.

Like, I've repaid my debt to you also.

You can still be friends.

But some people take that.

Yeah.

See, that's why I don't do that, childhood for a trip.

Yeah, loyalty.

You can't let your

niggas just call it.

I just try to.

I hate when you do that.

And then I hear some shit about niggas calling you and you looking out for niggas.

Stop it, please.

They say don't let your loyalty become slavery, but that's really true.

Because you in a situation where you're being loyal and the person's being loyal to you, but if you look at the big scheme of it, you know why that person's being loyal to you.

You the ticket.

Why the fuck are you still that loyal to that person?

And I feel like if you do have a relationship, because my experience on it is like when you're in it, it's hard to see it.

You know what I mean?

So it's like everybody, like y'all said, before everybody around you can see it.

But when you say if not now, when it like why now?

And my thing is like, if not now, then when?

Because I'm either stick here or stuck in it or I'm going to make this decision and do it right now.

You know what I mean?

Real quick, what did LeBron do for his friend?

That's where I was about to go because the other thing about this is

a lot of times the people who are your childhood friends that become your managers if you're a rapper or an athlete,

the talent they've had and demonstrated is being your friend.

It is very rare that the people around you happen to also be talented in the thing that you need them to do.

LeBron is exceptional.

Jay-Z too, a ta-ta-yeah, exactly.

But Jay-Z also knew how to strategically place people

and to develop their talent.

That's what LeBron did.

That's what LeBron did, right?

study up under him and learn the game.

Right.

But Rich Paul is uniquely talented, and that's rare to have somebody who's that talented.

My man, what's his name?

Also in

Maverick, Maverick.

Maverick.

Maverick.

I see how you got there.

You were close.

Maverick Carter is also an incredibly talented person.

That's rare.

Usually your man's in them be your man's in them.

And when you're an athlete and you get drafted at 18, 19 years old, you're talking about teenagers.

How the fuck do I know that?

That's why I don't like using LeBron and any of them and Jay-Z.

I hate the LeBron.

Whoever the outliers may be.

Because they're so exceptional.

LeBron getting the max anyway.

What's the negotiation?

This is the worst advice there is that you could possibly give somebody.

Normal people.

Not

because when someone says exceptional, it's them a lot of times.

That's me.

What are you negotiating with LeBron?

Right, right.

Max Neal, please.

Right.

I see what you're saying.

Okay.

No, no, I'm not going to do that.

Those brothers did have to go read and learn and speak to people and make the mistakes and bump bump their head and shout out to them for that circle and what they did.

They are them niggas.

Sometimes you bump into a crew where, hey, everybody's got a little bit of that nigga in us.

Yes.

And it manifests.

We're going to help it manifest together.

That's not typical.

That's not typical.

No, that's the rarest of rare.

So in music, when it's time to get a lawyer, get a lawyer.

When it's time to get a driver, get someone who knows the streets, knows the traffic, knows vehicles,

has been doing the laws, the police, get somebody that knows how to do that.

Security.

Oh, that's what I'm saying.

Get someone who knows

that.

I was literally going to ask you that.

Like, in the thought of,

because I guess the thought of is like, I want to bring these people with me.

With me, it was always, I want to trust who's around me.

So why can't I just get this person to take a class and learn how to do this or get this person to, you know, like, and then I'll have a team that, but it doesn't, it never works out that way.

A lot of rarely.

They don't get that.

Security, like you said, that's the first one you get your niggas to do security.

A lot of times.

They don't get the class to do X, Y, and Z.

You be robbed in the corner while your security cousin is in the corner getting a number.

Like, they just don't.

And not even that.

All right, you hired your friend that you trust, and that person is getting you three grand when somebody that is qualified should be getting you 10 and 15.

They may be doing their best.

Again, they're just not good enough.

You out there slaving for

whatever you think this fee is.

You don't even know what to do.

You don't even know.

You said that's the worst advice to give somebody that they could get people to learn and all that around them.

Don't hire your friends in roles that don't suit them.

You're lost there.

Everybody's fired.

Unless they're exceptional.

Especially not out the gate.

If your friend went to law school, maybe that's the perfect person.

I ain't got no law school friends.

That's what I'm saying.

I'm with you.

But even with that a lot of times,

even that sometimes it's like, I don't even want to bring you in.

Look, you rock over there and I'm a rock over there.

I get that too.

I want my lawyer I'm hiring to know me as the person that's hiring this lawyer.

I don't need me and you to have gone to Capitol Grill together when we grew up.

I don't need you to have that.

I mean, that's fair.

I just learned something like that.

He grew up good, right?

Damn, I'm like Apple Bees.

Hold on.

I want somebody to be loyal to

Capitol Grill.

I'm sorry, Flippin'.

That was shocking.

These Jersey niggas, man, it's different.

It's like, God damn.

I want somebody to be loyal to the work instead of loyal to me.

That's what I started to learn.

If you're loyal to the worker, you know what you're doing,

you came here for a job.

Fuck the friendship because you're dedicated to do your best at the job that you know how to do.

You know what those are?

So I prefer.

You're professionals.

Yes.

That's what I look for.

That's the word.

That's what I'm looking for.

A lot of times.

Nigga, watch your fucking mind.

Go say it while I'm talking, nigga.

Say it while they're talking.

You know, he said looking, right?

That's what I am looking for.

Yeah, I heard about it.

Oh, yeah.

Anyway.

Yeah, so.

Y'all smoke that.

A lot of real good points on that.

Yeah, thank you.

A lot of really, really good points.

Good job, man.

And best of luck to

niggas try to switch up because who niggas said,

nigga, want to give compliments.

Camera on me, nigga, want to give compliments and shit right now.

Oh, good job, guys.

Don't try to, nigga, you was doing that before.

Nigga, don't stop the pod to give compliments, nigga.

I like it.

I wasn't actively doing a chem test before either.

Watch this.

I don't do it while I'm here, nigga.

Kim tests while I'm not here.

It's positive reports.

That's actually was the first recommendation.

Oh, shit.

If we do well, you can like.

I got vetoed though.

I got vetoed.

Don't worry.

I can't hear my new hire.

He's going.

Wait, hold up a minute moment.

Hey.

Yeah, be quiet.

Hey, are y'all cool?

Yeah, sure.

Let's hear the new higher.

I can't hear my brand spanking.

Come on, now.

Y'all know how this goes.

The other hire is coming around.

All of y'all is my favorite when y'all first come in.

Y'all, come on.

I don't like this game anymore.

Fuck this game.

We out flip.

We're riding.

Am I your favorite?

Yes, right now.

Oh, my God.

For sure.

To surf come home.

Oh, yeah, surf go home soon.

Yeah,

what?

You have a short run.

You say still surf go home soon.

That's it.

Fucking right.

Surf going to be my last.

That's not true.

That's not true.

Surf not a job soon to come home.

That's Ad Rob.

Immediately, that's what I had to tell them.

Hey, them little letters that you got to write to the judge.

I wrote it because, real nigga,

but the judge wanted to know what he was going to make too.

I had to do a few drafts.

Yeah, they first.

I had to.

Hold on, wait.

They might try to keep you to what you said in one of these papers down.

I started just

binding right.

They signed it down.

Oh, my God.

Shout out to Friday Way.

Frita Way.

Friday Wave.

What else needs our attention?

Well, speaking of, oh, it's a couple things.

Nas

had a very successful week this week.

Queens.

shout out to nas man queens is getting a casino 5.5 billion makeover let's go break it down i'm glad you know the story

you keep making that mistake

okay you did it again no the committee voted in favor of nas and the world resort casino 5.5 billion makeover and they threw they threw shots at jay-z in that yo jay we got accepted um it's great man Shout out to Nas.

I think it's great.

I think that.

What part of Queens, do you know?

Rockaway Boulevard, South Ozone area.

Gotcha.

Yeah, that's where the casino is now.

So they're going to try to make it like Las Vegas, right?

Like

it's a big expansion that they're doing.

And it's going to be...

They try to make it

the world's biggest casino.

That's what they're trying to do.

That's what they're trying to do.

The world's biggest casino in Queens?

Watch your fucking mouth, Mona.

You know what I mean?

No, not like the fucking shit.

Who the fuck want what?

It's just, I don't know.

I couldn't picture it.

But yeah, so how long they think that's going to take?

I can't picture the world's biggest casino in Queens.

There's no shade.

But first, it was the aqueduct, though.

It was a racetrack.

It was a horse racetrack.

I bought my first piece of jewelry at the Coliseum.

Shout out to Queens.

But why didn't just go to the first piece of Lil Crack?

Broad Street or somewhere where y'all.

Don't.

First of all, we go to Jewelers Row in Philadelphia.

Exactly.

The Real Diamonds.

It's Center City, man.

This is Center City downtown.

You said Joelers or Jewelers?

Jewelers Row.

Jewelers.

That's where we get

our jewels from.

Thank you.

You know, Jewels from Broad Street, man.

Come on.

Yeah, like.

Listen, I don't know.

Yeah, we don't know.

We from New York.

We go to Benny's.

I'm like Eric Adams.

We went to Benny's.

Niggas fuck some bitches from out there.

Hey, where's the big clock?

Was it 13 for Locus?

They're on his ass, too.

Oh, my God.

Was it 13th and Locus?

We met the girls.

Okay, we'll talk about it later.

We'll talk about it later.

Anyway, trick you up.

No, no, I was just curious.

The casino, is that, in terms of where it's located,

a better location in your mind than Times Square was for the other casino?

Because I just don't know the geography.

It's probably a lot easier to get past.

Which one?

It's probably easier to get past in Queens than Times Square.

Yes, yes.

There's going to be less fight over there.

And it's more convenient.

It's just more convenient for people.

And it's a great location.

I mean, a lot of people went there when it was the racetrack, when it was the aqueduct back in the day.

So, you know,

that's been going for a while, the racetrack.

The racetrack's been going, yeah.

The story here is the clip running around of

them shooting at Hove, which I understand, but I don't understand.

I understand because there's been the online theory that Hove has been stepping on Nas projects for years.

Right, right.

Theory?

You talk about it.

We don't know if Hove has been purposely doing that.

Okay.

That's why it's a theory.

Coincidence.

Yeah, circumstantial.

All right, there we go.

I don't understand, though, because Queens and Times Square are two totally different things.

Very different.

Agreed?

Majority of folk ain't get that far to realize it was in Queens.

They just saw Nas got the casino and Hove didn't get the casino.

Yeah, that's why it's a big deal.

That's why I hate it.

But I don't think that Nash.

That's the internet.

That's why the internet.

They made it seem like Nas got the casino in the spot that Hove was fighting.

Right.

That's how the headlines were reading on the internet.

It's totally different.

Well, why is this a big deal?

I think that

Hove wasn't, that Times Square Casino wasn't the only casino that was rejected that week in New York.

There were three other casinos.

Okay.

So people thought that, all right, you just can't get a casino nowhere in New York City.

So this Queen's theory proves that to be incorrect.

I mean, not theory, but what happened

proves that to be wrong.

So I guess that is a really big deal.

Shout out to Queens.

But like Flip said, they already had all that shit.

Queens already had all that shit.

Yeah, they did.

You know what I mean?

What's y'all?

Rodrula's roll here.

We all gamble at.

We got a casino.

It's a casino column Boulevard.

The damn left, right, center.

What he said was.

I just bought a dog.

I just bought that last week.

What they got is your Philly Casino.

What type of rugs y'all got?

He'll catch that later.

Okay.

I'll let it go.

I was just going to make sure people got it.

Yeah, sometimes you let them slide like the Willie Tyler and Lester on top.

Yeah, I got you that Willie Tyler and Lester thing last year.

Yeah, you just got to get it.

You don't catch Mark jabs till a day or two later.

Mark is good at that.

No, but he slips it in and he mask it with

me.

He got that same smile.

That little evil grin.

Let's flip finish.

He slips it in the mask with kindness.

You can see his little horns going.

Oh,

last week when we talked about saying pause, we never said pause again after that.

Yeah, I'm proud of y'all, man.

I'm done pausing.

Growth.

Good, bro.

Bam.

I'm proud of y'all.

It's too late.

I thought we were done.

I want to live my truth.

I'm proud.

What's your truth?

What's your truth?

What's your truth?

What's your truth, though?

I'm ready, man.

13th Street.

That's his truth.

Exactly.

They're playing around saying that.

Stop that.

What?

He don't be on 13 and Lotus.

The same shit.

Don't play with him.

Don't play with me like that neither.

He don't be on 43rd nigga, 43rd and 8th neither, nigga.

I don't know what that is.

Ice on the street down 13th Street.

It's little rainbow flags on the street sign that let you know this is gay dude and you welcome.

Okay.

Well, shout out to

Thursday even locusts.

All the girls just getting off now.

I see you.

You at work, nigga.

You don't see the narrow head.

You at work, nigga.

They got off.

It's night shit.

I see y'all.

Where were we?

I don't remember.

We talked about the casino.

We were talking about the casino.

All right.

Congrats, Nas.

Congrats, congrats, congrats.

So I see

in the news, the CEO of Live Nation, Michael Rapino.

Let's do it.

Let's do it.

Let's do it.

Made a very very surprising, not surprising, annoying statement to me, basically saying that

concerts are underpriced.

Yeah, I'm gonna pull the exact quote, but he basically said that concerts are not only underpriced, but have been for some time now.

He said they're not expensive enough, is the exact quote.

I believe I have the clip.

No, a rich person came out.

I'm saying motherfucker five and said something wasn't expensive enough.

Read the room, baby.

I see what you got this nigga.

He be body.

He though.

He searching it in real time.

Like, he got insane, but he, it's like he got his points in his mind.

Yeah, I do.

Nigga, I'll snuff you, nigga.

Don't try to body it now.

Looking at your phone.

I don't like that shit.

No, I just press.

We got a clip.

We got a clip.

Me, too.

I got this quirky thing I do.

I read before the show, figure out the stories.

Then we talk about it.

I already know what we're talking about.

Got you.

Okay.

Fuck you.

For you, music is a better business, though, than selling tickets for sports.

I assume.

100%.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, you know, I think music has been underappreciated.

You know, I always joke, sports, it's like a badge of honor to spend $70,000 for a Knicks court side.

They beat me up if we charge $800 for a Beyonce, right?

So it's a real,

it's a very under, we have a lot of runway left, right?

So when you read about the ticket prices going up, it's still average concert price is $72.

What could go to a Laker game for that?

And there's 80 of them or whatever the hell.

So the concert is

underpriced, has been for a long time.

What?

All right, there you have it.

There you go.

Well, he wasn't saying front row, he was just saying the ticket, the average ticket.

Some concerts you can't get on tickets for $70.

I think that the difference here is

what we are talking about, what most fans feel, is the ability to get tickets is hard because of the bots and the resellers.

Yes, yes, that's a big part.

The face value of the tickets really don't be that expensive, but buying them is fucking impossible because of the bots and the resellers.

So we have to pay two, three hundred, four hundred, five hundred dollars for sometimes mediocre seats.

Yes, that's a big part of it.

First, they're not over if the average person cannot afford to pay more for concerts than they are right now.

That's the first thing.

And to your point, the bots make that even more, so it becomes like an elitist thing.

Going to a live concert is no longer like an every man, every woman experience.

You have to be special to go to some of these concerts.

I mean, we all went to see Kendrick kind of together, and I mean, we all had hookups and all that to get seats, but the people even sitting at the top, a lot of people told me that they had to use second-hand dealers.

And they were spending $100, $200, $300 to see Kendrick and Sister to see Beyonce to sit in the nosebleeds.

To me, it's so tone-defined.

You pay $1,200 to see Beyonce.

I pay mine too.

It's too stubborn.

I did have a hookup, but I paid.

Yeah, but

you know, we were all sitting kind of in similar areas, and I spent thousands to sit.

And I wasn't...

I mean, I had good seats, but I wasn't the best seats.

You can't afford to do that.

And I think the average person should be able to get good seats, especially if they wait in line or the first one online at midnight.

And even then, like you said, the bots and all the second-hand deals are snatching it up.

That's the real issue.

The average person ain't even going to a show.

That's the real issue.

Like it'd be for real, for real.

Average person not fitting that into their budget, a show.

It just don't happen.

Unless you have some of the perks, like sometimes credit cards come with a perk where you get early releases or

certain apps or something like that.

But to me, again, the real issue is the resellers.

Because the actual concert tickets are, to his point, fairly reasonable.

Obviously, if you want to sit front row, it's going to be expensive as fuck.

But why wouldn't it be?

Right.

$72 average ticket is...

I'm not saying everyone can afford that, obviously, but

I think that's a lot of people can't.

But he's saying that.

But everybody can't get access to that $72.

You can't call it underpriced.

It's the word underpriced that's bothering me.

I agree.

72 is fine if we could get people access to the 72, but what is he talking about?

1040?

You're talking about doubling it?

I mean, he's trying to compare it to basketball.

That's where he lost me at.

Why?

Talking about because it's a badge of honor to pay 70 grand for the Knicks ticket.

So basically, you should be okay with, you're okay with paying a high price for a concert ticket.

And I just disagree with you.

It's a bad job of people in that lane to have court side.

Because not just that, you're paying y'all saying so much.

I can't figure out where everyone stands.

Hold on, let me just say that.

I think concert tickets are, in fact, underpriced.

If we're talking about actual just face value, okay.

I don't think so.

I darn it.

I think they're rightly priced.

Well, we knew you was going to say that.

Yeah.

I think it could be fucking cheaper.

And my asterisk is large.

Like, that's a very big ass.

That's

the issue.

I do.

I do.

My grandma went to see Michael Jackson for $8.

Yeah, but a slight loaf of bread was how much they

maybe a dollar.

I don't know.

I agree with him, but I mean, I've been saying this for years.

I don't think that they're underpriced.

You think they're underpriced dramatically?

Yes.

You said that last time.

I remember.

Do you think that you being an artist and the fact that a lot of y'all make your money on the road has anything to do with that?

Yes.

Well, no, because I would advance his idea.

I think that everything in music is underpriced.

I've been saying that music, period,

should be sold at a premium.

And it's not.

Yeah, they buried the value of music with the streaming.

Yeah, the streaming.

So I feel the same way about the live concert.

Anything music related is them stepping on our drugs.

I definitely agree with you.

That's why I'm not mad at his basketball analogy.

Because,

yeah, it's the same exact venue.

You have the barclays.

It's the garden.

For a premium premium act to hit one of these places, there shouldn't be that much space between the basketball number and the artist number.

Oh, I disagree with that.

I don't think that concert tickets should be $70,000 or whatever.

That's crazy.

I don't think that that's that crazy.

But if there's somebody somewhere willing to pay $70,000 to sit front row, I think that option should be available.

When it's Super Bowl time, they cart out some section that the star tenders could have carted out there and to sit there just for this game, they charge whatever the fuck they want to charge.

Why can't we do it in music?

Why, every time we talk about it in music, it's to be frowned upon.

My worry is that if you do that, I don't want to be on stage with the band.

I'm sitting with the nigga with the sacks.

Now, you should also 70 grand.

I'm rapping.

What?

Fuck, give me the mic.

Let me get this verse.

I'm featured.

Yeah, I don't like that because if you pay that, if you if you kick that forward, then what's the second row cost?

What's the third row cost?

And then by the time you get to the Neil's bleeds, those people will never know what the guy that paid $70,000 is being being offered or his experience.

Those people would not know.

I'm just saying that the option should exist in music.

Maybe not 70,000.

Maybe we going crazy.

But it should be higher than the,

I agree with him when it's $1,000 and $2,000.

You see people having an absolute heart attack.

But that'd be the...

Why?

One, that's not the whole venue.

Man, that $1,000 and $2,000 ticket is for the person that wants to pay and can pay the $1,000, $2,000 ticket because everything that comes with that ticket.

That person should be back there somewhere.

That's premium.

That's for them.

We should change that.

And he's not complaining.

But what I'm saying, that $1,000, $2,000 ticket, the person that pays for that is not complaining about that.

Right.

I'm worried about the nosebleeds.

I'm talking about the regular person, not that's looking for the premium experience.

I just want to go to the show.

I'm not talking about who's complaining and who's not.

I'm only talking about what that gentleman said.

And by what he's saying, them $1,000 niggas, y'all would have to move down to.

Sorry.

Yeah.

Sorry.

I just don't care about them.

I care about about the average ticket goal.

And that stadium, when you go to a stadium, and how many people were at that scissors show or did the scissors kindred show?

$25,000 to $50,000.

$40,000 more than that.

I forget.

Must have been about $4,000.

Let's say $40,000.

Okay, let's say $50,000.

$45,000 of $50,000 are not sitting in the elite seats.

Those are the people I'm worried about.

Those are the people who work every day that are saving up to go to two shows a year.

And I think if we double the price of the ticket, it fucks down.

That didn't go to one show a year.

Maybe.

You know what I'm saying?

Maybe.

And so that's what I worry about.

That's the only person I worry.

I agree with you.

Front row, charge through the roof.

If you couldn't trouble with our seats, the seats we sit in, that's fine.

I would love it, but I mean, that's just the price of the game.

But it's for the average person who only gets to go to one show.

That's what I'm worried about.

Imagine if it was both, the best of both worlds, where it was that premium seat where you can pay for that experience, but always the nose bees were affordable, affordable.

I could live with that.

That makes sense.

They could check the lives.

You also can't watch the show.

You got to watch it on the big screen because you can't see the nigga on stage at all, but still, you're in the building.

Do they have Wi-Fi?

Because that's, I don't go to a show if I can't.

You can go to the overflow room like in church where you, the whole shit.

I don't want to go if I can just sit close.

I don't want to go to a show if I can't see this nigga sweating.

I just don't.

And I was the type of person, if I had bad tickets, I'm just going to walk down there and keep acting like I'm in, I didn't know I was in the wrong seat.

When motherfuckers say, Can you move?

You know what I mean?

I'm going to just play that game.

If they don't got security mandated in the stands, we on that.

You know what you do?

Let me tell you what you do.

When you in the venue, and he really knows because he's a show.

Oh, for sure.

You just open one of your little apps, you see what tickets are still available that wasn't sold.

Do your seats now.

Now you're not in nobody's seat.

That's a great joint.

Nice.

You always find a way to get it.

Nice is a crackhead.

Yo, you always find a way to seat.

I ain't freeze.

That nigga froze.

You always find a way.

You always find a chicken to see.

I'm not y'all.

I'm still from the other side.

The other side.

What is the other side?

The side that y'all not on.

I'm still over there.

But how if we.

What does that mean?

He's still.

He said he's still hood.

He's still.

But how?

I ain't let go of all my ways, man.

I'm getting there.

Even with some success, even with more money in your pocket.

I don't do that shit now.

You know what I'm saying?

I'm just telling you that.

That's how we're at near no hood.

All right, all right.

We ain't got to come on.

That's a fact.

You live in a beautiful, beautiful.

It's fucking...

What are you talking about?

You got a following in your lobby, nigga.

I'm in no lobby.

Oh, see?

Look.

Well, anyway.

Yeah.

I think that the artists should be able to charge what they want for the ticket.

And if the fans don't show up, then that's on the

biggest problem still is always going to be the bots.

I have a question.

Just be able to get the fucking tickets is impossible.

But why?

When it's probably the big boys that own the secondary markets that are using the bots.

But no, they do.

Yeah.

It's like that's why they jacked the Rico.

But my problem with that is that the artists aren't getting that

chunk.

That I don't like.

I don't like the idea, though, that the artists can charge what they want.

I mean, that works for some artists.

I guess I'm saying is if you're Beyonce or you're Kendrick, where She could charge three times as much and fill the stadium.

That just means that so many of the fans that love you can't get access to it anymore.

I'm not saying don't get your get what you deserve.

I'm just saying there has to be a line somewhere because some of these artists literally could charge anything and still fill the stadium.

And I just don't want to see that again for the person who saves up to go to the show.

I just see how much joy people get when they get wear their Beyoncé outfits and they do all that shit.

This is how our fucking big stars end up fucking having to perform at Derwin's Bar Misfa.

That is how they end up taking these other gigs where Rihanna got to have all the equipment flown in to Africa to perform at this nigga's nigga's 18th birthday party or some shit.

We'd be like, how the hell is Rihanna doing out there?

We think about, oh, we paid, he paid Rihanna

$6 billion

for an hour.

Yep.

Like, those opportunities exist for the people that they exist for,

is all I'm saying.

Can they get rid of the bots?

Is it just like, why can't it just.

They don't want to get rid of the bots because they own the bots.

Yeah, they're making too much money.

That's crazy.

They make too much money.

And again, like you said, artists charge what they want, not to go in circles, artists charge what they want.

Now I got to break the the artists off of this.

But if we buy them all up and then resell them at 17 times or whatever times the price, we can keep the money.

We keep the money.

Yeah, I can certainly hypothetically see a world in which they're doing exactly what Joe is talking about and exactly what he's talking about anyway.

Yeah, maybe.

You know what I'm saying?

Speaking of artists making money.

I know, Wayola.

I know at some of them shows I go to.

I mean, we go tell the truth, Brain.

Let's tell the truth.

Just today.

Just today.

You can tell the truth.

Depends.

Tell my niggas telling money.

Juicy, right, Juicy?

Tell me.

Because if I'm gonna be the only one telling the truth, then I won't do it.

No, let's tell the truth.

I never want to be the only one to tell the truth.

And some of these shows that I go to,

the people y'all are talking about

are like near me.

A what?

Are they near them?

Who?

Some of these stink motherfuckers.

Oh, you done paid, you done paid a certain amount for your ticket.

You think they ushering you to some ill shit?

Here goes some stink motherfucker in a tank top,

wearing some beads and a Chris Brown tank top all dancing near you.

Right there.

He got his five stink home girl.

They talk about pardon me.

No, no, no.

How did you get here?

Talk about feeling like Deborah Cox.

I shouldn't be.

No, you shouldn't be nowhere

close.

Right by me.

Soon as my girl get up, here come one of your stink ass coming friends taking her seat.

Now I got to talk to her.

Move this bitch.

But it's cool.

We're supposed to just be fly with all concert goers.

Yeah, I know.

Just get security next time, Joe.

Stink man might got money too.

Get security.

I know.

Stink man got a bag.

Speaking of artists, I have been shocked

to hear that David, who has been allegedly accused of a lot of awful things,

his record sales are going through the roof right now.

People are buying his music like crazy.

Have y'all noticed this?

Have you seen the numbers?

I've seen the numbers.

I've seen the memes.

Like that?

Oh, it went crazy.

It's crazy.

I think it's in support of him because they sing he's not guilty.

Shit.

That nigga.

Hey, and I heard it on the line.

Yo, it's somebody else named David that could sing that cat of Tesla.

It is on the internet, but he is innocent.

He's a daddy.

Nah, there's a story going around that's trying to pin this on a different David that sings.

Yeah, they're trying to say he's a non-famous.

Yeah.

Hey, buddy.

I am so surprised that they have not picked you up yet.

Yo, I can't believe it.

I'm super shocked.

I can't make sense of it.

He's so guilty, they ain't got to pick him up.

They're watching him to see.

Will we come?

Right.

But they're watching him, though.

They try to see where he's going to see if they can pick up some more clues and get some more evidence to see if he can.

Or if he goes near any other bodies.

You know what I mean?

Like,

when you're that hot and dangerous uh and guilty uh apparently allegedly i don't know if he's guilty or not but he sure looks guilty he looks bad he looks guilty he looks really guilty he's broke the lease to his 20k a month home like with as his defense like he just

he's trying to get away like he's never seen a crew crime driver before and people are running out to listen to the music because i couldn't i can see why because people were saying he referenced certain things in the song and the curiosity and people now i gotta go hear it i am hoping that that's the reason i'm hoping it's not that they're supporting him.

I'm hoping it's that they want to listen to romantic homicide, for example, which is a terrible song to have when you kill your lover.

Yeah, I hope that ain't the only one.

It's a couple of them.

There's a few of them to where, and he's got interviews where he's talking about having multiple personalities.

One of them is evil, and it's a fantasy of his for the evil person to be committing murders and leaving clues and the same version of him trying to solve the murder.

He's a fantastic.

The breadcrumbs left in songs and interviews have people probably running this up.

Right.

Is the song any good?

Is the music any good?

Yeah, he makes good music.

Oh, okay.

You might need to be good.

I like his music.

Oh, so you're one of the streams.

I haven't listened to one note.

Oh, my God.

I haven't listened to one note.

Mark Lamont.

Yeah, Sue Me.

I listened to the music before he started killing people.

Who's y'all favorite murder artist?

Like artist murderer?

Gucci man.

Ice.

Freeze.

That's a good name.

Oh, my.

God.

When you ask the question, guys.

Fuck.

it.

There's no answer that we could give this guy.

Not get bleeped out.

Let's just move on.

No, I want to hear the answer.

I'm thinking, How many Park Whitney is your favorite artist murderer?

Supercat.

I don't even feel right saying it.

I'm not saying that.

I bump into that nigga in the street sometimes.

I was going to say Spado.

Oh.

Spado Carap.

Spado did time for that murder.

Spado.

Y'all loyal.

I know you're talking about it.

I'm so loyal when it comes to Philly, boy.

A major figure, Spado.

I know exactly.

We know what y'all.

I know you know.

Every time you're going to say it.

We know.

We know.

Don't worry about it.

New flag, new flag.

This nigga, for the listeners, this nigga just pat my wig.

He tried to straighten it.

He tried to straighten it if you wanted.

What's up with this nigga?

Hey, Flo.

That's the problem.

He tried to fix that.

All that other shit, cool.

That wig patent got to stop flat.

Like, that motherfucker could have slid off if it wasn't the right wig, Joe.

Cool out, baby.

Hey, yo, brush this shit.

Give her a brush.

Yo, fix that shit.

Yeah, let's get that shit right.

Let's get that shit right.

That shit fucked up in the back.

I fucked my girl's shit.

God damn, Joe.

You good.

You good.

Now niggas want to help people with their wigs.

This nigga is foul.

Now nigga want to help.

Nigga be right there.

Shit, I'm here, nigga.

Nigga, we all want to say that.

We can't say nothing because of work morale, nigga.

Oh, we can't say.

Let's not say because of work and ian watching and we gotta go we can't even keep it real with now you want to help money

fouls like he doing a lot of first of all first first of all i don't like that excuse me excuse me

and excuse me

if

you know i tried to help

you know i tried to help

you in a mean way though don't do that don't do that i always try to help don't even don't do me don't do me

did y'all hear mark this nigga Mark latched his way into a beverage.

No, Mark asked Juicy for her ginger ale.

Juicy looked at the nigga like, what?

You can't just drink somebody's ginger ale.

She thought it was mine.

Mark,

they found tickets on David's car, like more tickets.

And they was trying to figure out, they basically said that the tickets that they found, they think that the body was already in the car when they found the tickets.

And first, first and foremost, rest in peace to her.

And she loved her.

She said that young lady.

To her family.

We're not trying to, you know.

But I read today that they found tickets on the car and people was trying to put it together because apparently they think the tickets got left on the car after the body was there but then they start talking about why they didn't smell it but it was that early that they couldn't smell it but that's what i read today that there was more tickets because it was just sitting there so you know it probably got ticketed a lot because then it was impounded so i'm guessing when they took it to the impound she was already in there but it was already ticketed so people like yo why they in you but how would you know if you can't smell it this is going to make at some point the story when this story unfolds I don't even think the story of his guilt or innocence is going to be interesting.

It's going to be the backstory.

You know, all those other things.

There's so many elements we don't know yet that I think are going to be scary.

But again, oh my gosh, I keep saying this.

I'm a big David fan.

I love his music.

I've been listening to his music for about four years now.

But

listening to his lyrics after the whole allegation of him killing this little girl, you monetize the niggas.

It's sick, monetized niggas.

He's telling us exactly how he feels in this song.

And I just need y'all to listen to it real quick.

Hello.

I don't want to hear it.

Damn it.

I'm at your door.

Niggas sound good.

Oh, shit.

I just needed a friend.

Now I share a bed with you.

And I dumb

to succumb to the noise.

I'm not a little boy no more.

I made my stupid choices to

tell my mother that I'm sorry.

Tell my father just the same.

Bro.

Tell my sister that her brother might as well have gone insane.

Bro, this is...

Okay, hold on.

Is that a straight jacket he got on?

Is that a straight jacket?

Clearly, you could hear.

Hold on, real quick, bro.

In the back of my mind, she died.

And I didn't even cry, not a single tear.

I killed you.

So it's not like the thought of her is gone by itself was something that she did.

It was something that I decided to do.

And I killed her in the back of of my mind but it's really more of a figurative I killed you especially in the back of my mind I try to stress that in the back of my mind that's why I say it's all loud in the back of my mind yeah we know back in my mind I killed you so it's all in the mind because that's the the most secure place you can be is in your mind so if you can expel that thought from your mind then everything else will just come together if he really did this he was a sick puppy

and this is what I talk about a lot of times again I'm not

I'll just say this anybody who did this has severe mental health issues and I don't know if throwing him in a cage for the rest of his life is the answer to that either.

I don't know.

That's the answer.

He needs to be.

That's the only answer we have.

Yeah, don't start y'all.

No, no, no, no, no.

This is what I'm saying.

I'm saying that he needs to be clearly confined.

He needs secure confinement.

I'm just saying he needs some mental health support, too.

I'm saying that there's no way that he.

This isn't a sane mind, is all I'm saying.

Like, he needs to be maybe in a mental institution for the rest of his life.

If he is, in fact, guilty of him.

Yeah, I said, this is all contingent on him being guilty.

If he's not guilty, free him.

I'm curious at.

I'm curious at how much stuff his mother and them ignored.

You know what I mean?

Because a lot of times people be seeing, you know, even with him writing stuff that's so dark.

I'm just curious if somebody ever said, well, are you okay?

Like, you know, because if you're going to go that far, because that's the whole thing, the way he's talking in his last interview, he's talking about keeping it in his mind, but you couldn't keep it in your mind.

And you're done manifesting some of that shit, doing it in real life.

I know his people know.

You know, when your baby fucked up.

Do you believe that to be true for everyone that commits murder?

Not everyone that commits murder, but them freaky people like that.

Where you're hearing the way he's talking, the way he's moving,

feels psychopathic or maybe sociopathic.

I don't know.

Or multiple personalities.

Multiple personalities also.

It just seems to be a lot of things going on.

This is not like I just shot you on the street

over beef.

He should have had my mom, nigga.

I ripped a picture and they sent me to speak to somebody, nigga.

Like, are you ripping pictures in the house?

Well, what were the pictures of?

Like, that's family?

I don't know.

I ripped the picture.

My mother had to go talk to somebody as a kid.

That's a suck.

That's a suck.

Your moves in the picture.

That's like the most important part of the world.

That's family, right?

My mother, my brother.

I don't know.

But you're leaving out some key details.

He's purposely leaving out that he ripped his brother out of the dark.

Right, ripped the head off the picture.

Then he took the piece of picture of his brother and stabbed it with the picture.

No, no, no, no, no.

He bit the head off the door.

He's leaving some shit out.

I remember having to go talk to somebody about it.

They became concerned.

It's like, all right, come on.

How long did you see?

Talk to somebody?

I don't know.

It was like all the childhood or it was just no, no, no, no, no.

Still, and they never caught it.

That's why I went.

They never caught what?

Whatever's wrong.

Whatever the problem is.

The problem is gone.

Oh, okay.

Thank God.

Yeah, yeah.

Thank God.

I can't believe that they got this nigga Roman free.

They done picked me up for way less.

Oh, my God.

They done picked me off the street when I told them the child support was sent.

It has to be that.

I guarantee if he's taking the shit right now, they can hear it.

He couldn't go nowhere.

He was on the international tour, which they canceled.

Well, no, they canceled the national tour.

The international tour is still set.

I'm sure they're watching his passport.

I'm sure they follow him everywhere.

I guarantee you he can't go anywhere without surveillance.

When you come out his front door, it's a black car sitting there every day.

For sure.

I'm telling you, they're just trying to collect more more evidence to build a case.

That's all it is.

That's all it is.

Speaking about rest in peace.

I worked on that bit that you stepped on.

Oh, I apologize.

That's fine.

I worked on it for three days.

I want to hear the bitch.

Fuck that.

I hate stepping on the bitch.

Mona, the Mona's gone.

What'd you say, Mona?

No, it was me that was talking there.

Oh, you look like Mona.

Everybody in the middle.

You look like Mona.

You look like Mona.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

All you see is Mona.

That's it.

Speaking of rest in peace, I just want to say rest in peace to the 13-year-old that was shot in Queens, Cambria Heights, Sanjay Samuel.

You know what I'm saying?

He lost his life.

They say it's

gang violence.

I don't know what it is, but I drove past there the other day, and I just want to say rest in peace and condolences to his family.

You don't know what it is.

I don't know.

I'm not into gangs.

But I'm just saying, that's what they're saying.

They're saying it's gang violence.

400 episodes later now, you're not in the gangs.

Why are you doing that, man?

I was saying, rest in peace to a kid that lost his life.

I know, but, and that is horrible.

But as soon as they flashed his face on the news, they flashed home, boy, the dinner, little 14-year-old kid

with a gun in his hand.

In his hand, yes.

So, I mean, and he shot him in the head, this kid.

They got it on camera?

Yes, they do.

Damn.

They do got it on camera, yes.

So.

Little kids.

It's just when you hear the parents talk about the children,

it weighs different.

That's all.

For sure.

When I hear the mother talking about them, you know, it weighs different.

I don't know anybody that know them.

Go ahead.

Go ahead.

This woman rest in peace.

I know if you're about to hit outstanding, that's why I don't want to do it.

No, way to do you.

I'm queuing it it up, please.

I'm queuing it up.

Go ahead.

Since we're talking about rest in peace, of course, it's a really important moment to say rest in peace to Asada Shakur, one of the giants of the freedom struggle, the black freedom struggle here in the United States.

She passed away on Thursday of this week in Cuba.

For those that don't know, Asada Shakur

was a former Black Panther, a former member of the Black Liberation Army, who was one of many people due to the COINTEL program.

The COINTELPRO, government counterintelligence program was surveilled, was railroaded.

She was accused of a lot of things, murder,

bank robbery, kidnapping, et cetera.

She was acquitted three times.

Three cases got dropped, but she was also tried and convicted in absentia for the murder of

a New Jersey state trooper.

The medical evidence proved that she did not do it.

She actually was paralyzed in the arm that they said that she shot.

Anyway, she was arrested.

She was convicted.

She was placed in a, or she was placed in a prison.

She was the first woman to be placed in a men's prison in U.S.

history.

She was in middle sex prison.

She was also in Clinton Correctional.

And while there,

she

was tortured in so many ways.

Asada's a hero mine.

She's actually one of the people tattooed on me.

And

Asada stands as a figure of power and possibility for so many of us.

Asada in 1984 was liberated by the Black Liberation Army.

Now that she's passed, I feel a little bit more comfortable talking about what happened, but it's not my place to tell the whole story.

But people broke in,

freed her, including Seku Odinga, who passed away earlier this year, my brother, rest in peace to him.

They freed her out of the prison and she escaped to Cuba, where she received diplomatic immunity and has stayed in Cuba for the last four decades.

Shout out to the Cuban government for protecting her and keeping her safe, even though New Jersey attempted to bring her back many, many times.

starting with Tom Ridge forward.

They've had her on the FBI terrorist list for decades now.

She's the first woman to be on there.

But she stayed free.

She's been a giant in hip-hop.

If some of y'all listen to Rebel Without a Pause, when you hear Chuck D say that he supports Chesamart, he's talking about Joanne Chesemart, who is Asada Shakur.

When you hear a song for Asada on

Water for Chocolate, they're talking about Asada Shakur.

All the Black August events that we saw when Black August hip-hop went to Cuba that first time, that major trip, they visited Asada Shakur.

Asada Shakur was a friend of Effain Shakur.

Tupac.

You named that there, right?

Yeah, sort of.

And

they're all part of it.

That's a whole interesting conversation, too, that we could talk about maybe later.

But Tupac also referred to her as Auntie Asada.

Asada was a legend

and a mentor and a resource to so many of us, although she remained hidden in Cuba, especially in the later years.

She just stands tall and strong, and I'm grateful that she was able to live free

and die free.

So we say always hands off Asada, always free all political prisoners.

Always love to Asada.

So we want to send rest in peace as she returns to the ancestors.

yeah she's she's inspiring um because she has the quote where she says like we basically got to stick together all we have to lose is our chain like yeah it is our duty to fight for our freedom it is our duty to win we must love and support each other

we have nothing to lose but our chain but our chains embody that no no she really is like one and then the thing about because this year they started putting in more effort to trying to go get her they were trying to extradite her again so the thought that she just passed away peacefully is just, it just feels better.

You know what I mean?

There's nothing better than

allowing her to die, seeing her that she died free.

I wish she didn't die at 70, I wish she died at 108.

But I'm grateful to see that Asada is there.

And also, she wrote one of the most important books I think that anybody should read.

And we do our book club.

One of the books we should read is Asada.

For me, there's the autobiography of Malcolm X, and there's Asada.

Those are the two books that changed my life.

And I think anybody out there that is reading and trying to learn and understand anything about this world should read Asada's autobiography.

Thank you.

That was powerful.

That was great.

Yeah.

She's powerful.

That was powerful.

Good at that.

Now, if you diss anybody when they die, nigga, I'm going to be mad because you see how powerful that is.

Nigga had tears in his eyes.

Good, nigga.

Jimmy Fallon.

Mark was like this.

Mark, I got water.

I'm like, oh, he about to, he really wants potter of the year, nigga.

He about to cry.

He fucked me up.

He made me sad, nigga.

She's a big deal.

I started thinking about my dead people.

I'm like, oh, shit.

Fuck.

She is your team people, nigga.

She is.

Thank you.

Girl, you boom.

That's it right there.

You and it's part of the same family.

Y'all white.

Sorry.

You gonna just let him call me out of my race?

Both my parents black.

But we gotta.

Shout out to my black ass parents.

Yes.

Shout out.

Yeah.

Don't make me bring big wand up here.

Please don't.

Please don't.

I'm telling you.

I'll stand there.

I want you to get that motherfucking book and read it because that's crazy that you don't know that's your people.

That's your people.

No, that's my people.

She fought for you.

You'd be able to walk up there on the street of Queens, get you a sandwich, a croissant.

I understand.

You want to walk around, be free, and shit.

It's people like that.

It's a real freedom fighter right now.

I'm just saying, I just want to.

She let them motherfuckers take her down.

Fuck the police.

Oh,

okay.

Coming straight from the underground, nigga.

Hey, Ian,

it's over.

Take us out there, Emmy.

Let's try 2027.

Let's drive a circuit.

It's over.

You can't say that.

Them niggas, the police

let me go because of this podcast.

They let me go.

They was like shit serious.

It's like, come on, bro.

We need that serious.

That was like for real.

That's a big thing.

You gotta ask if other niggas is down for the cause, too.

Nah, fuck that.

We can't put a cause for you.

They just volunteer and don't say cause I'm not gonna lie.

Nah.

And let me tell you something else.

Not over.

No, fuck that.

Nah, that's why we all down for the cause.

Parks and Poe gonna go to the front door because, as the white guys, y'all gotta stand at the front line and take the bullets for us.

That's the part of the movie.

I got the door into the bullets.

You stand at the door and say, fuck the police.

We're going to yell it from behind you.

No, I'm going to say, excuse me, sir.

There's something going on here.

That's right.

Officer, sir.

You got to.

Okay.

I was on your titamata.

We all learned.

They learned.

We need a word.

We need.

We need something.

We all we got.

Fuck that.

You can't just.

We got to resist.

Mona.

Yo.

And Mark said, you know what, Mark is funny?

Mark said, wait, I don't know if you was about to play a song.

I also have a rest in peace that I want to get to quickly.

He bought it that shit.

And went and smoked it.

Yo, you smoked that, bro.

And rest in peace, you made me listen.

I'm going to get that book.

Dope.

Thank you, man.

Shit.

But you.

Oh, my.

You got to chill, girl.

Hey, yo, Dave, what's a nigga from Break Beach?

We understand that.

Oh, shit.

Did we get it?

We get it, nigga.

We get why.

We get why you.

We get it.

We get it.

Did she say something up there about y'all?

We're going to get a fucking tweet.

We down with her, but we get it now, nigga.

While we're on the subject of Freedom Fighters, I did see the new Leonardo DiCaprio movie.

Oh, shit.

Which if you don't know, is about,

I'm pretty sure it's about Freedom Fighters.

Okay, I was gonna say, that was DiCaprio?

Okay.

And Tiana Taylor.

Tiana Taylor.

I don't know about it.

And

the director is a dude that did There Will Be Blood and

a bunch of other shit.

I gotta get his name.

Carry on.

Yeah, he's fired, but I did go see this movie.

One Battle After Another.

One Battle After Another.

Three hours.

Paul Thomas Anderson.

What's his name?

Paul Thomas Anderson, the director.

Three-hour movie, or at least every bit of two hours and 45 minutes.

It was a good flick.

It was a good movie.

Walk out.

I did not walk out.

Did you fall asleep?

No.

No, I was awake for the whole three hours of this movie.

For me, a good rule of thumb is: anytime Leonardo DiCaprio is in a three-hour movie, it's probably going to be really good.

And it was really good.

I'd like for any of y'all to go see it.

I'm going to see it Monday.

Because I do have conspiracy theories

that pertain to Leonardo DiCaprio movies.

Like, I feel like they were trying to tell us something in this movie.

All right, well, save it because I'm going to go see it Monday.

Yeah, I'll go see it.

Something in this movie.

Three hours, though.

It's 245.

That's nothing good.

It's 245.

I could do.

I'm going to go see it.

Killers of the Flower Moon.

I heard this movie.

Killers of the Flower Moon was three and changed.

That was long.

That was amazing.

That was a great movie.

That was amazing.

Oppenheimer was long as well.

It was, yeah.

I was talking about strictly Leo movies.

But no, it wasn't all.

I heard that the chemistry between Tiana and Taylor, like the sexual chemistry, was like good.

Like, all those things were good.

Oh, well, when they started kissing and shit, that's not the first thing that came to my mind.

Like, their sexual chemistry.

But Tiana was great.

Tiana was great.

Actually, everybody in that movie was great.

It was All-Star Cast.

All-star cast.

So

check it out if you get a minute.

I started Black Rabbit.

I only did one episode, but I'm in.

Off one?

Off one.

I'm in.

in i'm in seems like a really good show all right have you finished yet you seem like you've probably been binging i'm not finished but once you once you get caught up a little bit you start to get annoyed at the decision making in that show i thought that was kind of the point it must be the point it would have to be the point they both seem like they don't make the greatest decisions off one episode yeah but they get really frustrating as it goes on i was frustrated with the robbery at the beginning yeah so i can see how that would be the case yeah and i think that might be the point but maybe i'm wrong i'm gonna keep watching though but it is a good show yeah and task is going crazy yes task is super duper fire um okay comedy in saudi arabia i'm gonna save it for the patreon now okay it it flows better now

yeah got it got it got it uh let's see let's see what else is important

unimportant uh

sylvia rone steps down oh wow that's major sylvia

steps down that was a big thing that i forgot to report on last time we were here let me just find the details really quickly.

I don't remember where her last position was.

She was at Sony, I want to say.

Okay,

let's see.

Here we go.

Trailblazing music executive Sylvia Roan, who became both the first woman and first black person to lead a major record company, is stepping down from her post as chairman and CEO of Epic Records.

Oh, wow.

Trailblazing music executive Sylvia Rohan, who became,

as I step away from this role that has defined so much of my journey, I am filled with pride in the extraordinary tapestry we've created together.

Roan wrote in a memo to her staff, thank you for trusting me with your brilliance.

Thank you for making every day feel like the first time music was invented.

Thanks to Rob Stringer for his trust and camaraderie.

Let's see, Sony Music Entertainment CEO Stringer said, today I want to take a moment to reflect on the extraordinary career of Sylvia Roan.

In an industry defined by his constant evolution, Sylvia has adapted and embraced change time and time again.

Her journey is more than just a list of accomplishments.

She is a trailblazing executive with a distinguished background and unwavering commitment to supporting artists.

Absolutely.

This is a big deal because all of the big dogs seem to be stepping aside or stepping down or

this is from Julie over there at Atlantic now, Sylvia, who if you're around my age, all of the 90s and 2000s acts, you're familiar with Sylvia, is a big deal.

It's a huge deal.

Is there a very clear new because she's in her 70s.

I think she's 72, 73.

Is there a new generation of black execs that are very clearly taking over, or is the landscape different now?

I wouldn't know.

I'm far removed.

I'm far removed.

That's a great question, though.

I'd love to know who they're putting in this leadership position that hasn't been announced yet.

I don't think it's a new

black.

I think it's a new wave of young wave.

Exists, but not sure, not African-American.

I don't think so.

I mean, mean, the music is kind of reflecting that.

Yeah.

Roan first partnered with Epic in 2012 on her imprint, Vested in Culture.

She was named president of the label in 2014, and in the wake of L.A.

Reed's exit, became chairman, CEO in 2019.

Oh, this is the note she wrote.

Yeah, she just thanked everybody.

Yeah.

Thanked everybody.

She was nicely stepping up.

What are the greats?

Yeah.

What are the greats of our generation?

Yeah, let me hit the round of the show.

Applause to Sylvia Roan.

Interested to see what she does next.

When the big dogs step away, I never really have them just going to ride off into retirement somewhere to never be seen or heard from again.

Although in the 70s, maybe, but who knows?

Who knows?

Not Stevie Wonder.

Shit.

All right, let's see what else is important.

What else is important, unimportant?

Moni, you want to talk about friendships?

I wanted to talk about mixing friends.

I wanted to talk about when do you make the decision to bring your your one friend group around the other friend group or do you ever do that?

Like, do you ever mix friends?

Super depends on the friends.

There's some friends that you're not really for everybody.

Okay.

And there's some friends where it's like, come on.

Y'all will get along.

Yeah.

Y'all will get along.

So do you assess it and see who will like it?

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

You kind of have to.

Yeah.

So do some friends just not get the invite when you have like a kickback or a party or a reception or whatever?

no no major events i think everyone is it's fine i'm talking about in a more intimate setting

like going to a club together going to a bar together going to eat together or something like that but you know the friends that you can't bring to them places anyway you know what i'm saying yeah yeah and it's like i'm not gonna bring you around my

cool friends that i might take to these

when i say cool you cool you know how to act if we go somewhere you know what i'm saying this motherfucker right here i can't bring you around here you might be trying to get in the same he might get too drunk exactly you know like or she this might be either way one of my closest homies but you just don't know how to act in certain situations you can just i can't take you there what if you introduce your friend to the other friend then they start hanging out without you

how do you take that i worry about that less i don't yeah that's happened to me before but i i wasn't the left out one so

i think that happens with women more yeah it definitely happens with us for sure just they care more yeah my best my best friend my best friend since i was like 18 and we had it was another one like i hung with her she hung with her we hung out together and realized that um it's really stupid now we look back on it but she would never roll up we'd be smoking weed she would never roll up we go to the gas and she never had a gas that was our first connection like she's cheap she's stingy but we ended up really like getting close and she just she just didn't come along you know what i mean so i've had it happen but it caused like drama but we girls so I think it's a growth thing.

Is it?

More of a drink.

So if you're two, if you meet, if you introduce your two guy friends and then they go watch the games without you and the one got the $70,000 court size seat and he doesn't bring you, you don't give a fuck.

Please.

Y'all love playing like y'all.

Don't get mad about stuff.

No, we get mad about stuff.

I wouldn't give a fuck about that.

I'm not, oh, why you didn't take me?

Why you take him?

Oh, wait, no, time.

I'm gonna get a little better.

When you and Set friend watch the game, y'all watch at the bar.

Your other friend, once you introduce them, now he's taking him.

Cut the TV on market-ish all at the game, smiling together, showing their teeth.

Man, fuck these niggas.

And they have better seats than you get, right?

Mm-hmm.

In Philly, though.

Oh, so if you play Monopoly, then other side of the ball,

like

Baltic or some shit.

Hell, Wow.

Mediterranean.

Flip, do you mix your friends?

I'm the friend

that they don't want to mix.

I thought about that, but I ain't going to say it because I didn't want you to take it to shade.

No, no.

They don't bring you to this.

But back in the day, now it doesn't matter.

But before, yes, I was a friend that they didn't want to bring around.

They wanted to keep me from their other friends.

You could come.

Is there a hydrant outside?

Say it again, I'm sorry.

Is there a hydrant outside to do what?

To wash me down?

No, that's racist.

No.

No.

I thought you were cool, nigga.

We should have rest in peace of that saddle, nigga.

No.

Watch your fucking mouth plan over here.

To tie you to the hydrant.

Oh, I'm a dog.

That's what's racist.

Because it's only a little less racist.

That's racist.

I got a question, Flip.

Yes.

You referred to yourself in the past almost like you made this big change.

Like, what did you, like, what happened?

That's a great question.

That's a good question.

I didn't make a big change.

The world changed for you.

Yeah.

I mean, well, and I talked about this in my anger management session yesterday, about how being up here.

Huh?

Shit, what?

It's in the video clip, right?

It didn't come out yet.

I said being up here, watch your fucking mouth, Mark, you're supposed to be supportive.

He's been a little bit more.

I've been supporting you.

I was supporting your management and your content.

I said being up.

Shut the fuck up, Mark.

Absolutely.

Totally perfect.

I said, being up here and dealing with people that has patience and believe in teamwork make you put a mirror in front of your face.

So when I would explode up here and act crazy and stop, da-da-da-da, them niggas like, all right, at some point, at first it worked, at some point they're like, all right, let them finish.

And everybody would just look at you like, yo, you look dumb.

You had to put a mirror and realize that you have to change and advance your way of thinking and not be so small-minded.

So, when I talk about me in the past, I'm really not on that.

And I've never been that privately, but I'm really not on that hype stuff or the stuff you've seen in Videtti.

Do you think you lash out for attention?

No, no, I lash out for a reason, but I'm saying that there's other ways to deal with the situation.

That's true.

Congratulations on your group.

I'm happy for you.

Does it feel more peaceful?

Do you feel better?

It's still some shit between me and this nigga.

There's still some shit in my mouth.

Flip think about it.

I got goosebumps.

This nigga can't be tight.

I was so confused about when you said anger management, then he said something.

So that's like a content thing.

No, I was thinking like you really went to see me.

No, I really went to anger management, but I decided to film him.

He brought my shit.

He's been doing a lot better since the anger management classes.

We'll see what October has in store.

Outstanding.

We'll see what the next month is.

You better not kick me out.

I did hit Ian the other day.

Like, how much flip making it?

Wait, what?

He is crazy.

What?

He said that shit back.

I said, you lying.

But anyway.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Stop.

Stop.

Why?

Why?

Why, Why, what?

I don't deserve to make what I'm making.

I think you deserve to make more than that.

Okay, so why did you ask that?

I didn't know.

I don't understand the correlation.

It is or is not.

Yo, tell me right now, nigga.

But I pull you outside Apple Beegan.

No, no, it's not.

No, no.

This nigga crazy.

Don't be lying to me.

I'm just feeding the narrative.

You did a good job at it?

See, Sika, shout out to Mona.

I'm going to give you some love, too.

You came in here, man.

You're a professional.

You dope.

You ain't trying to play into any navigators.

I think that's, I have a lot of respect for you.

Like, I start to like you more and more.

I told you you were.

Have you been reading the comments?

I'm a growing.

You love her.

Yeah.

She's a hit if you've been reading the comments.

I read the comments.

I don't know because they said I was on my phone too much.

I apologize about that.

I have attention to that.

I like that.

I watched it.

That was your first episode.

Some of these niggas.

I have a disorder.

Some of these niggas live in forever, but can't put the phone.

But do they have disorders?

Yes.

Well, yes.

That's the thing.

Oh, my God.

That's the thing.

They do have.

Oh, who, bro?

Who?

She's right.

Who are you talking about?

Who?

That would be a HIPAA violation.

One of the niggas they hear, you know, you come back and you hear that.

That potion.

Next episode, tight.

Simon sent me this.

And I care.

Nah.

You niggas talk about my hair.

Nigga, I'm gripping.

Yo.

Market that shit at the top of the show.

Yo, y'all.

I love you, bro.

Real quick, before we go any further, y'all, I made a mistake on the marketing.

I ain't make no mistake.

I'm listening.

I'm like, he did what I might do at the top of Patreon.

That ain't what I said.

I want to talk to the people.

He squinted his eyes.

Yo.

I know, man.

He got the eye squint down.

Did he do that?

Yo, you got to watch this nigga, yo.

That's the light-skinned nigga squint.

She must have caught that nigga in the car in the way.

Right at the top of the Prenton.

She couldn't have got to the gym.

It's another issue because that was six months ago that that was.

Yeah, she was.

Thank God.

I did it.

This It's just a misunderstanding.

And I will say off my phone, and I will keep my mouth on the mic for you guys.

Whoa, but we're not pausing.

We're off that part.

You're right, my bro.

My bad, my bad.

Um, let's see, let's see, let's see.

Shout out to Kendrick in New Mexico.

That was great.

Let me get the round of applause for him.

Huh?

No, Mexico, Mexico, City.

Mexico, Mexico.

Oh, we're not Mexico City.

I just lie.

New Mexico.

Mexico City.

That was a lie that I just did.

Shout out to New Mexico.

Wait,

he watched Tarzan.

Shout out to Flo de Mayo.

What else?

Puerto Rico.

Shout out to everybody, goddamn it.

Puerto Rico.

That's.

You're a jerk.

Shout out to Kendrick.

Wherever the fuck he's been.

We should follow up.

Did anybody watch the Jimmy Kimmel

comeback episode?

I did.

It seemed like everybody seemed to watch that shit.

Looking at the numbers.

But I would have

midnight or whatever it was.

Disney lost a billion dollars on this one.

That's crazy, yo.

What you mean?

When he wasn't coming back, oh, they had to hurry up and bring him back.

They lost a billion dollars.

A billion.

Oh, yeah.

They lost a billion dollars.

Oh, yeah.

The money talks.

You got to follow the money.

You shot your whole load?

Do your flip shit.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You know what I pause?

Some things you have to pause.

That was crazy.

Hey, I keep some load issues.

Pause, dude.

Come on, man.

Do you like that flip?

No.

I'm just laughing.

I better, because my girl will examine.

Why is it the flip?

Oh, my God.

Why is it watery?

Yo, yo, yeah.

Why is it watery?

Nigga, I left one off earlier, yo.

I left one off in the back room to give you that work.

Why are you asking about the texture of my shit?

Yo, yo, dick.

What type of shit is that?

These motherfuckers are psycho.

Mine is

tricking off.

Mine is a psycho.

Mine too.

You must have been drinking out of it.

We don't have to mind your fucking business.

Yes, first of all.

I'm looking at you.

Leading up.

Yo, that's probably the same shit.

You must not be into me no more.

Look at the cum.

Wait, I don't think they understand how cum works.

I don't think they understand how life works.

Schedule's packed.

Yeah, oh my God, yo.

Oh, shit.

I love you, baby.

Anyway.

Anywho.

Look at Mark.

What did you think of Jimmy Kim,

man?

He did great.

I thought it was a great episode.

I watched

his heartfelt apology.

Some people

only watched the apology and didn't watch the whole episode.

They just want to see the monologue, see how he carried it.

But I was glad to see the show do so well because I think it was a good

act of resilience.

You know what I mean?

For everybody to say, look, you're about to lose a bunch of money because of this free speech violation.

We're going to come back and stand for Jimmy Kimmel.

Whether we like the show, don't like the show, whether we're fans or not, we're going to watch this thing.

I thought that that part was dope.

His actual words,

I thought he was more generous than he needed to be.

Yeah.

I got the point he was trying to say, which was that I don't, I wasn't trying to attack this family.

I wasn't trying to be harmful to his kids and his wife.

I was making a political statement about this thing and not this other thing.

I got friends on both sides of the aisle.

That's where it kind of went off the rails a little bit for me.

I didn't like that part.

I wish he had just kept it

on the other part.

But overall, I thought it was a good, courageous comeback.

And if nothing else,

he was sincere.

I didn't.

He almost cried.

Yeah, he almost cried.

He choked up in tears and didn't seem like crocodile tears.

It seemed very sincere.

So I was glad to see it.

Yeah, for sure.

This is the first episode i've watched of his in a long time maybe ever i was gonna say i've seen some clips but i don't really turn on tv anyway i thought it was good it was safe but it had a little bit of bite to it the whole episode there's little little jabs i thought were solid so congratulations uh

should he have apologized

i think he had to i think he had to apologize to the family of charlie kirk just in case something was taken out of context i understand that part i don't i i don't think he apologized to like the president and and shit like that.

I don't think he should is a strong word.

I think he should have.

I'll say this: he was very careful with his words.

He said, If you interpreted me this way,

I am sorry for that because that wasn't my intention.

But they also,

if you're going to apologize, I thought that that was about as good as you could do it because he's basically like, I didn't say this shit, but if I communicated this poorly, then I apologize for how I communicated it.

Not for this.

At that level, you need some variation of that.

Yeah, you got to do it.

Yeah, just a choice.

But though, I think he did something that warranted a real apology?

Absolutely.

I agree with that.

Exactly.

I agree with that.

And I understand you having to do it for the sake of, you know, this is corporate.

This is bigger than just you saying something.

This is corporate shit we're talking now.

So you got to play the game.

But I don't think he did anything that warranted an apology.

And that's why I like the words that he used.

He didn't say, I did.

He didn't say that his sentiment or his beliefs were wrong, which is what some people do.

They cower and back up and say, I can't believe I said that.

That's not the true meaning.

No, he's like, I said this thing.

If it came up like I was saying this other thing, I wasn't.

And I apologize for how I, again, how I communicated that.

And you're right.

that's as good as you're going to get at that level because you got to do something.

You can't show up there and not say anything.

Yeah.

But it doesn't look like Nextstar or Sinclair stations are budging.

So that means it's still 30% of his market is gone.

They're going to be showing local news for the next year and a half or whenever his contract is up.

And I don't know what this means for his contract, but in a media landscape where they're already trying to get rid of late-night shows, Colbert's gone.

I mean, Fallon seems to be doing well.

He may be the last man standing.

But they don't really want to do this shit anymore, networks.

They don't want to invest invest in people anymore like that.

That's interesting to me.

It is.

It's interesting.

Yeah, because

I do see that there's a lot of people that still watch late night television.

So are they going to move it off of TV and just make it strictly

an app and do at the same time?

Like as far as who do you know that watches late night TV?

Older people.

And I think that's the issue is that the, you know, the coveted group on TV is still 25 to 54.

And so as the people who watch TV move further and further from that demo, they don't care if our grandparents

are.

Do you feel if they put a young, popular person

in the late night position?

Do you feel like

the viewers would tune in?

Yes.

No.

I'm not sure.

I think we watch it.

I think we watch it on five.

I don't know if we watch it on linear.

I just don't know if linear TV will ever.

I think linear TV is.

That's where the problem is.

I used to watch late night a lot, but then when the Trump first administration, all of it just became Trump jokes, and I don't like Trump either, but I was like fatigued.

I was fatigued.

I don't want to hear this shit.

The right late night show on the right app or cable network, I could see people tuning in for sure.

Yeah, linear television, maybe

the boat has passed.

And that's all I'm talking about.

You'll still see daily shows, you'll still see all those things because the stakes are lower.

I mean,

Jimmy Kimmel's contract was huge relative to what other people are making.

And the return is getting less and less as the advertisers move because, again, the demo that watches it

doesn't matter as much to advertisers anymore.

That's the tough spot for him.

So we'll see what happens, though.

I also think all these shows, these late night shows, they're very expensive, but I think they could be produced for much cheaper and released in a more profitable way via YouTube or Patreon or wherever you choose to do it.

That's right.

That's right.

But you do that.

Again, your older demo, they watch TV.

Right.

They're the ones who look for this.

You get what I'm saying?

So the older...

Grandma ain't got YouTube like that to go.

I think there will always be one at least on there or something there.

It's the thought that they're going to die off.

That's why they don't care about that demographic because they won't be here for so long.

And they don't buy the products that the advertisers want to sell.

Exactly.

Yeah, so.

That's the real issue.

They don't care if they die tomorrow or next year.

It's more that 25 to 54 is the ripe audience to buy car insurance, to buy, you know, these birth control, to do whatever the thing is they're selling, that's who they want.

That's why, at least on the news side of things, we don't even, when we talk about ratings, we don't care what your mass number.

The mass number is ego.

To say 3 million people watched my show last night, it don't mean shit.

if only 200 000 watched it in a demo that's more important i'd rather have somebody with half a million viewers and all in a demo than somebody with 10 million viewers and none in it and none in the demo okay yeah that doesn't matter so that makes sense yeah

i'd love to do a late night tv show trying to think of how much money i would need to do that weekly this is very expensive that's what you told me I don't think it has to be.

It's typically a monologue and some level of musical act, which sometimes has been historically, it's usually a band, but that first of all, is not necessarily terribly expensive.

It also could be a DJ or a guy playing the piano or something.

I like the thought of back in the day when it was like new talent.

So you might have a stand-up going for five minutes.

People broke stand-ups on those shows.

Or where it's almost like not a talent competition, but it's people that are that new that you kind of like judging them whether you like them or not.

I like the idea.

Carson was big for that.

Yeah.

I just think it should always be an option for the people that don't party for something.

You know what what I mean?

Because so it's almost like you're joining in on that party.

The person is dressed up.

The set looks like nice, you know?

Because everybody else in the street, you home, but you still feel like, you know, you did something.

A lot of got entertained, yeah.

Yeah.

The black QBC channel.

You remember the chat we had about late night television?

Mommy.

You just were saying it was expensive and that it would cost a whole lot to do that.

And I was telling you how like the goal would be if it would be like what you all were saying before, where your new artist goes there with the album or whatever.

You know what I mean?

Like, they would build it up like that.

Almost what those streamers are doing right now, where those labels are sending people.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

I think with the right team, it could be done.

With the right people, the right people involved, the right personalities.

I think Jesse Collins can get that done for the cheap with somebody just in terms of producing.

Like, if he wanted to wrap his head around that, there's a few more people I have in mind that could do something like that.

Issa, like, there's people people that could lend their brain to that, and it would be a success.

I think you body it, by the way.

Thank you.

Especially if you had a body helping with some of the political commentary jokes.

Oh,

girl, great.

Now you got to cut somebody else.

Just be the guy that's there.

Just make me the dead person correspondent.

Like Jeramo.

Or that.

You probably can't tell.

I keep trying to escape some of that radical shit that this guy's on.

He keeps bringing it to everybody.

You'll body it, though.

Flip could be on there with you.

Like, you know, they got the little small Latin.

Me and Mark would smoke that shit.

The little small Latin guy.

I think we would smoke.

Me, Mark, and Mona.

I think I'm about to.

Yeah, that's the team.

That's Spark.

And Flip.

And I straight through Flip.

What's the guy that the little Latin guy that used to be on the show with the guys?

I go on the competition side.

Guillermo.

Guillermo.

Guillermo.

I can see Flip being Joe's Guillermo.

Nah, I go on the other side.

I keep trying to escape him being Joe's.

What did you say, Guillermo?

Guillermo.

Yo, me too.

Me too, nigga.

Me too, nigga.

No, you ain't.

I told you, I asked the end to send it over.

I'm dumb.

Say what over.

He said what over.

He sent it over to you.

Yeah, send what over.

Wait, I was about to.

Damn.

I be thinking of jokes and then I forget them because y'all so funny.

Remember, we friends.

I'm friends with the other side, too.

I told you that.

What is the other side?

You'll see.

I talk to you.

Stop doing that.

Stop acting like you're kicking me off, man.

Stop acting like you're kicking me off.

Are they coming looking for you?

Come on, Queen's Flip, nigga.

I give an adrenaline risk.

Take some accountability in why they're saying that, too.

They're not saying it because of me.

Take some accountability, dude.

That's

that's a fact.

I mean, yeah, I bet I, but yo, you knew, but you knew.

You know, like, we're keeping this game together forever.

But, Joe, you know what?

This is the bitten world.

You know what, though?

Do you feel good about yourself, though, to let your man just go through something and to watch, you know, even though you said the shit, you took the shit out?

Because I like to repeat shit just in case it comes out later on.

You try to say it.

So I like to beat you to the punch.

But you should feel good about yourself for allowing me to go through what I was going through and fight right back out of it.

I do, because it was tough.

I do.

It was tough.

For real, physically?

It just so happens that in this line of work,

the right time to fire somebody is when they're going through a lot of turmoil in their personal life.

That's fucked up.

But you ain't, that's fucked up, Joe.

That's the right time to fire somebody.

That's what he said.

Normally.

Because to do this job great

would be to the detriment of everything else.

Hmm.

What?

Y'all.

So if in your

own life,

everything just starts going kapoot.

Kapoot?

Like, that would be wrong of me to now expect you to come in here and do the job to the best of your ability, which typically means the sound of fire.

Or give them leave so they can recover and do better for themselves.

Yeah.

That's why you don't tell nobody your business.

Give them leave.

Oh, you must have won him.

All right.

You got minutes on that for one more.

How many minutes?

Oh, you got a grandma playing.

Oh, my God.

Anyway, only stay new, though.

Let's see, let's see, let's see.

Let's see.

Is Zion Williams really on Ozimpic?

He's on something.

He's on something.

Y'all don't think this is just good eating and shit.

Stop the rules.

Have you ever been to New Orleans?

Fair.

And you see what happened to him?

It's good eating, but it's not.

Good eating for the athlete, I don't think.

This is the thing.

For those who don't know, Zion Williams, who plays for the New Orleans Pelicans, has put out a string of videos.

And also, people have seen him in his workouts, and he looks the healthiest and the most in shape that I've ever seen him look.

I'm talking about high school, college,

all of it.

And it does

prompt one to wonder if he is using some kind of supplement.

And this isn't just exercise and diet.

I don't know if it matters to y'all.

If it isn't, I think he could do that naturally.

Like, you would lose a lot of weight if everywhere you went, Mariah Mills was behind you, chasing you trying to fucking get some

dick hey I got a baby

Whatever she's saying a good job

never ending a long walk

Yeah, yeah, yeah, so yeah, I think he could do it naturally, but he does look good.

He does

look good.

It only took him seven years.

But if it is the zimp, like is that a problem?

Well, that was going to be my question for athletes.

I mean, I don't know the long-term effects of Ozimpics, so I don't know if it's good for athletes or not.

But that would be a problem for me if I were the owner of of the team or trainer on the team or coach on the team.

If he got on the zem for a little bit and jumped off and looks how he looks now and he maintains by working out, eating and all that shit, that's a problem.

I just say, yeah.

I'm saying, but why?

Why is it a problem?

Because if I were invested in him and I watched him not care about his weight and size for seven years,

I would be looking for, I put all these clauses in his contract that were based around his weight.

I would want to see him stabilize that without help.

Because if he gets the help, then we're now reliant on the help and my star number one pick and investment here is reliant on something.

And to Merck's point, we don't know what it may, health effects may have on you.

It's a known of the team.

Nobody cares about

it.

Yeah, you do if all of a sudden you can't.

If it's a three-year term, it depends on whether the long-term is 30 years or like next year.

Is this story a fall from grace?

Him, oh, he still has time.

Of course, he said no.

No, he's got time.

He said, So, did he come in starting?

Because I remember like he was the one picking the draft.

He was the one picking the draft.

I remember Jabari Parker.

When I met him, they said when he first played, when I interviewed him, they said that he was good.

And then you never heard anything about him after.

No, Jabari, Jabari, he got drafted and had some a lot of Milwaukee, a lot of leg injuries.

Okay, he's an injury-prone career.

So, with Zion now, like, did he come when he first came in, did he body it and then his personal shoes?

He's also had a lot of healthy.

He's had a lot of interesting things.

When he's on the court, he's an all-star.

Yes.

He is.

Got it.

When he's healthy and on the court playing, he's an all-star caliber player.

It's just rare that he is fully healthy.

Exactly.

And the problem with him is so much of his game is athleticism, like freakish athleticism.

And when you have that kind of weight issue, it affects your knees, it affects your back, it affects your feet.

So there's a lot of long-term concern about his ability to play at that level and in that style.

And if you have that weight issue and you're injured all the time, now you're home with Mariah Mills.

He's not.

He's home with me.

He don't mess with Mariah Mills.

Stop it, man.

It's Rose, man.

Rose close.

Rose, you got two children.

Yeah.

Oh, your homegirl.

Yeah, Rose.

Oh, okay.

That's who you live with.

I'm just saying.

But I know about the other show.

Oh, okay.

That'll stop him.

Come on, man.

My friend.

They live together.

She got lots of people.

She got lots of a bullet beats with somebody.

I should have said that the first time.

I would have tucked this issue away.

Anyway.

All right.

Metro.

Yeah, why we're on congratulations.

Congratulations.

Metro.

Metro found not guilty in the sexual assault rape case that he had.

I think you said in less than an hour, he was in court.

This was a criminal thing, right?

Or was it civil?

Is he found not liable or not guilty?

I think it's not liable.

It's civil.

Oh, so you're not liable.

Okay.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So, yes, congratulations to him for that one.

So I have a question.

It was never no criminal charges with this situation.

It was always just a civil thing okay well yeah congratulations to him and it brought up a question a lot of people are asking because you know what accusations do to a person and can do to a person's career and these things like

any type of recourse for the accuser when they found out there were no there wasn't enough evidence for any of this right you can make an accusation possibly ruin someone's career and nothing happens no consequences absolutely nothing happens afterwards i think just go on about your life like all right ice i think the fear for putting up something where it's like, because I used to say that all the time.

I would say, I have two sons.

So it's like, I will always, and most of my friends are males.

I would always say, like, if they have concrete proof that this person just pulled it out their ass, they should go to jail, right?

But the issue with that is, is that that could, like, push other victims for not telling.

And I think that's why that never gets any like gas on it.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Because the whole victim blaming thing, that's the issue.

So many sexual assaults and rapes never get solved, never get, you know what I mean?

It's so many situations.

Even if they're true.

That's what I wanted to say.

I don't want to assume anything about the details of this case.

I mean, what we know is that the jury found what the jury said, the juror said when he left, at least the jury, the juror that was interviewed, was that there wasn't enough evidence there.

It was just kind of a recollection with fuzzy dates and things like that.

Sometimes, and I'm not saying he's guilty or innocent.

I'm saying

I don't want to jump to the fact that because the jury said that they didn't have enough evidence to find him liable means that she was lying.

Right.

How much time

do you need for it to not be jumping when a man says, hey, I'm innocent.

I didn't do that.

I was clear of charges.

How much time?

Like, let me give you an example.

There was an accuser that accused Chris Brown of some shit

last year, year before last, or something like that.

Yeah.

And he had the receipts.

He was like

text messages and everything, which totally disproved that.

Yeah.

That's a better example than me.

But nothing happened to her either right yeah that's the point that people keep bringing up where it's like there are certain times where i'm not saying every time but there are certain times where it's like okay this is some some bullshit here right because i think there should be something because you all i know we don't want to discourage victims from coming forward but we should find a way to discourage false accusers from coming forward

it is a very thin line to determine who's the victim and who's a false accuser

but if you can be proven to be a false accuser there should be something to do.

I agree.

I think there should be accountability for anybody who lies on people.

People lie.

I just, again, I'm just,

I like that example much better because in this case, what I know of this case,

it wasn't like there was a smoking gun that proved that she was lying as much as it was, which I think is how the law should work, is it's your word against mine.

And no one should go to jail or in this case, in a civil case, be found liable just because it's my word against yours.

I do think that we need more evidence.

I agree.

But I don't want to assume that because the jury decided to believe him, and it's noteworthy that this is a lower standard, right?

It's just a preponderance of evidence, not reasonable, beyond all reasonable doubt, which is an even stronger argument for him.

But despite that, I don't want to frame it, and I know you're not doing this, I don't want to frame it as she was lying.

But in a case where the evidence is clear, I think there should be recourse.

If it's legal recourse, I think that's important, and also civil recourse.

Because if I have to get lawyers,

there's harm that comes to me through the accusation that will never be recovered.

Correct.

Even if I'm found found not guilty.

Because if he's found guilty, it's at the top of our story today.

If he's found guilty, it's at the top of our story.

Him being found not guilty goes to the bottom of the

news wires, right?

The problem is.

And the accusation still stays there.

And

the accusation stays there.

The problem is, a lot of times, in addition to the power imbalance, there's also money imbalance.

So the person who accuses, say, Chris Brown, what can I get from that person?

Exactly.

Chris Brown has far more to lose than could ever be recovered if he's exculpated.

And that's the challenge sometimes.

you can sue him all you want

she needs community service or something she go pick up some leaves like i had to go do

or pay his court costs but with what i've seen they sue him because they broke i've seen a documentary it's a documentary accusation let me be there's a documentary out right now where they follow um these girls that were charged like they got they accused some people if they weren't found guilty and they basically charged them with whatever in their little small town but when they looked back over it they were wrong so that's why they kind of tell the story like that but i think that that's the whole tugging pool because what other would be what would be the other reason why nothing happens to you especially when you talk about you can look at certain girls that have done that to more than one person or a person that is rich and is probably like chris brown where it's constantly happening you know what i mean like you would think but even when we watched the deposition of a cardi b and this girl's telling this cockamame ass story that any of us if we hear it don't sound right right but you still can get that far up just chasing the check you know what i mean so i don't know i think that's the only thing that holds it back but it's such a it's such a problem like that's such a big deal if you were getting that wrong and especially being black because they get it wrong so much in court with us it's like are we really pushing for some you know what i mean for any other laws or any you know what i mean when they get us wrong all the time like they never hear us you know we always go to jail don't speak of going to jail no i have his statement here i think the thing is important to read at least some of it

uh metro says i'm grateful and thankful to god that i can finally put all of this nonsense behind me based off of how i treat others and represent myself, never in a million years would I have thought I could be accused of such a disgusting and heinous act.

Today I took a victory in court, but in reality, there's a long list of losses I stacked up this year.

In this year, long process of clear, in this year-long process of clearing my name and reputation.

The very large amount of money and time wasted based off of someone else's greed, coupled with the incalculable amount of money and opportunities that did not make it to me, yeah,

or my team during this time.

Metro Booming is more than a stage name or

family-friendly brand, but a superhero in the eyes of many children and adults around the world.

I'm sure I don't have to put in any more words on how devastating these false claims may have been to many.

Lastly, the trauma my family and I have endured during this dark period can never be forgiven.

I legally adopted my youngest brother.

All right, well, I don't need all of that, all of that, but you get the point of what Metro is saying.

Like, congratulations to Metro.

You win, but what do you win?

Right.

Right.

No, you don't win.

You wouldn't, you wouldn't

less than you started at.

I lost time.

I lost money.

My reputation takes a hit no matter what the verdict said.

He just lost his mom.

Didn't he just lose his mom?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So that means his mom passed without seeing that he want that, you know what I mean?

He was

clear.

Yeah, clear.

That sucks.

Did this exist then?

This is that old?

She, when did she pass recently, right?

She hasn't been passing.

How mom's recently.

Yeah.

She hasn't been going for the past year or so.

That's the alright.

Oh, yeah.

The case is going on.

Yes, yes, yes, yes.

Longer than then.

Yeah.

Okay.

Yeah.

Got it.

All right.

Congratulations to Metro Booming.

Yeah, for sure.

Speaking of legal problems.

Oh, go ahead.

Same thing.

This is your man.

Your man Ray J said he's working with the feds to put a Rico on a Kardashians.

It sounds so funny.

That's why the ice take it.

What?

Let me read his this quote.

Yeah, please.

It said it's going to be bigger than

Puff.

The Diddy John?

Yeah.

You never know when he played.

Written up there somewhere.

It's right on top of Saudi Arabian comedy.

I'm going block.

Yo, what's that?

Yeah.

Why are we going to talk about that?

Why we can't talk about the Saudi Arabian comedy, Joe?

Why?

Why do you want to go on Patreon?

He's going to go on Patriarch.

No, but I wanted to hear.

What was the matter?

You believe on Patreon?

I can't wait to hear it.

You know what?

We can do it now.

Let's talk about Ray J.

Let's do the Ray J.

Give me the quote.

Okay.

You got a problem with zombies?

No.

Oh, no, we need to.

I do, but that's a different conversation.

Yo, can you, what's the safe word?

What's the word?

No, we need to.

Pop talks, nigga.

Pop talks.

Stop, ball.

The Federal Rico I'm about to drop on Chris and Kim is about to be crazy, Ray J said.

I'm talking about.

I'm on the news every day.

I'm going to say a lot of shit.

Anybody that's cool with Kim, they need to tell her now.

The feds is coming.

There's nothing I can do about it.

It's worse than Diddy.

Why do y'all do this?

Like,

why are we doing this right now?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Like, do y'all believe that Ray J believes this?

Yes, I believe.

If anybody believes that Ray J.

believes it.

I'll get out.

If anybody believe that Ray J believe it.

I think he believe it.

Do I think it's going to happen?

No, but I do think he believes.

He can do something.

I was shocked when he exposed the whole thing that she set the videos up.

Ever since then, I listened to him with a a different ear.

I used to think like whatever he says is bullshit, but when he exposed all that, it just made me look at him a little different.

Well, no, slow down.

I believe Ray J knows a lot of shit.

Yeah, me too.

That's a fact.

That's a distress.

I agree with what he does.

I think that is, that aside, I don't think Ray J believes that he is working with the feds to bring a Rico to this family that I still believe he loves.

Oh, you think he loves him still?

Hell yeah, he still loves him.

I don't think that.

I don't think that either.

I don't think that.

I think he he i do think he might i do think he might have talked to the feds if for him to say it he might have been like yo i got i know something yeah i think now if anything comes from it maybe not but but you think that based on what

that he talked to them i believe him that's what i basically believe what he's saying i think talking to the feds is such a broad and vague thing that he could have had one conversation with one person

about something what rico do you think exists in the kardashi do y'all know him so many so many y'all know i know him yeah a little bit

i don't know him like that's what i say ray jay Ray J is a showman.

Ray J puts on a great show.

He's a phenomenal entertainer.

He knows how to work the cameras.

He's learned reality TV.

He knows how to keep himself in the headlines.

During the D trial, the fact he was all over Chris Cuomo show and all that stuff suggests that.

But to your point, Joe, at some point, sometimes you start to sell this stuff so much that you start to believe your own shit.

So it wouldn't shock me if he's starting to believe the stories he's telling.

I don't have him there.

You don't have him there?

Okay.

Ray J is just a car salesman, man.

So you think he's just talking?

Scooter?

I feel like this just happened a few months ago where he did something crazy.

What

how sexy Red was pregnant or some shit?

He's been saying nut shit.

Saying like I slept with so-and-so when he was just on a plane sitting next to him asleep.

He's been saying nut shit for a few months now.

All right.

Well, you'll have to owe you Ray J an apology if this comes out and the Kardashians come crumbling down.

Oh my God.

I don't think that's going to happen.

Nah, I don't think that's happening.

I don't think that's.

What could happen to send the Kardashian Empire crumbling?

Oh, please.

What could happen?

What could we hear?

What could we hear that y'all think, oh, that'll do it?

I don't know.

I don't want to say

y'all.

I don't want to say

some shit.

I have answers to that, but I'm not saying I'm on air.

I know too much stuff.

Oh, look where he draws the line and what he's not saying anymore.

The Kardashian Empire.

That's crazy.

Some things are sacred.

Oh, my Lord.

All right.

All right.

Well, go, Ray Jay.

There we go.

There we go.

Get a lot of that.

All right, what else?

What else?

What else?

All right, we're doing comedians in Saudi Arabia on Patreon.

But let's start basking.

Go, Saudi.

Saudi Arabia, come on, man.

What is your issue?

Do you know the story?

I don't know the story, but I know that there's a lot of sports and things happening in Saudi Arabia.

Yes, invited.

WWE, UFC,

golf.

You've been invited to any of this?

Yes.

And would you go?

Should I not?

Am I fucking up your checker right now?

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Should I not go?

I was invited.

Since we're here, I'll just say

what the issue is.

There is an all-star comedy festival being headlined by a bunch of great comedians right now in Saudi Arabia.

I initially brought the story up to bring Mona into the conversation more as a stand-up.

I wanted to know her take.

But

it was announced in July.

It's the Riyadh Comedy Festival.

Kevin Hart, Aziz Ansari.

Sorry.

Kevin Hart, Aziz Ansari, Hannibal Burris, Bill Burr, Dave Chappelle, Louis C.K., Whitney Cummings, Pete Davidson.

I could go on.

I need to go on.

Jeff Ross.

There you go.

Chris.

There's a lot.

Chris Tucker, I was about to say, just so people don't guess wrong.

Chris Tucker?

Yeah, there's a lot of very...

There's a lot of major comedians going there.

There are also many major comedians who are very

upset about that.

Obviously, Mark Maron, who y'all know, y'all didn't see that.

Mark Marin will always be upset.

Shane Gillis, Zach Woods.

They've launched a kind of counter campaign saying, y'all are sellouts.

This is awful.

How could you do this?

What's awful about it?

Saudi Arabia is home to some of the worst human rights abuses in the world.

I mean, imagine if they were all going to South Africa in 1986.

Right.

And what would you say, right?

And so the question for me, I mean, you can walk off the land.

It's fine.

You know what I mean?

What topics do we not need to freedom fight against?

You against it.

I don't know.

That's what you want.

So that's why I wanted to tell the story.

So we can actually.

When do he take off his freedom fighter pajamas?

I haven't.

God damn it.

They don't come off, Joe.

Oh, clearly.

I'm like a Mormon.

Yes.

Keep my Jesus jammies on at all times.

But go ahead, Faye.

I do want to hear what you're saying.

So the question becomes, you know, what do you do when a place like Saudi Arabia, and I don't want to quite compare it to South Africa, I think that's too extreme, but I was just trying to make a comparison.

When Saudi Arabia has some of the worst human rights abuses in the world,

they going to the show?

It's sponsored by the Saudi Arabian government.

No, I'm talking about the people that's on bullshit.

Are they coming?

The government itself is the on bullshit.

Do they perform in the United States?

Yeah, but when they laughing, they're not going to want it to.

No, hold on.

Them same comedians, do they perform in the United States?

I don't know.

They do, but I don't think it's the same thing.

I don't think it's the same thing.

As fucked up as the U.S.

government is, I don't think it's the same thing.

I think

if a comedian were performing in Israel, if a comedian were performing in, say, Uganda, if a comedian were performing in, I mean, I can name a few other places where human rights abuses are rampant.

I think it's a fair question to say, what does it mean to go there?

What does it mean to support?

I think it's at least a question that we should ask.

And no state is perfect, no government is perfect.

So I don't think we have to wait for a perfect government to perform somewhere.

But if the people, if women can't attend the show, for example, right?

Okay.

I mean, we got to ask ourselves,

but this is why Connor didn't like what you had to say in the first topic about ticket prices costing a certain amount.

Say more.

Because these people, whoever brought these people out here, I'm assuming paid a bag just from the names that they're both.

Oh, no, no, no.

I'm assuming they paid

a billion.

Probably a billion dollars, yeah.

A hundred X.

What these people's normal bag is.

They did.

Back to my that option should exist point, right?

But if when you do that, then the very next thing we go to is going to be, who are the people that you're performing in front of?

Like, it's going to make it a real slippery slope.

I agree.

And all slopes are slippery in this way.

None of us have clean hands, right?

All of us workplaces do things that are complicated.

And that's why I'm not even necessarily saying,

what I'm saying is that we at least should raise the question when we make decisions about where we're going to work about what are the moral stakes attached to it.

And in the case of Saudi Arabia, it's not just the fucked up things happen in Saudi Arabia and we're going to Saudi Arabia.

It's that you're going, you're being asked to go by the Saudi Arabian government, effectively.

That's what I'm saying is different.

Oh, okay, okay.

Do you get what I'm saying?

Now, if you were just going over there to perform for 100 extra price, you wouldn't see a problem with that.

But the government doing it, it's like when Snoop went to dance for Trump.

That's what I'm trying to say.

That's what I'm trying to say.

Like an example you gave earlier where some guy, some African, rich African billionaire who tycoon is bringing, say, Rihanna, come perform for my son.

That's different.

You're asking people to have a lot of discipline, Mark.

You're asking people to turn out a lot of money.

You don't have a fucking

morals.

Yeah, when you get in this bag, like

your expectation of humans is high to me.

Um, I don't know if it's an expectation as much as it is an ask.

I expect people to do fucked up things, but the ask is that we don't.

And I hope that somewhere the tension between the ask and expectation, we can get a little bit of growth.

I was thinking about this yesterday, Kenny.

It's not necessarily a tough ask of humans, it's a tough ask of

successful people.

I don't want to put any dollar amount in people's pockets, but I don't think that Kevin Hart, for instance, is hard up for bread.

I think he could pass on certain gigs if he wanted to make a

political statement.

I just this morning was thinking about, but he's a, I think he's a bread hole.

So, what are our expectations for niggas that hold themselves out for the bread?

And I don't know that about Kevin Hart, but just as I was getting dressed, he popped up in the iPhone commercial, and I was like, nigga, you could say no to something.

Like, share something.

Like, he just in everything.

The chase, iPhone, all of the big wigs, he's in there.

Like, nigga, move.

I don't know.

I ain't mad at him for that.

Shout out to Kevin.

But I do have an issue with going to Saudi Arabia.

I'm not surprised.

This ain't a gotcha.

None of that bullshit.

Is there a number they could give you?

No.

No.

At all.

There's no number that I could go to perform in Saudi Arabia.

No.

So I respect it.

Mark, I have another question.

Do you think that Saudi Arabia is trying to, because Saudi Arabia now is doing a lot of things.

Wait, hold up, Clip, hold up, let's not let him do that that fast.

No, no, no, no.

I'm just respecting it and let him go.

Let's go there.

I respect it.

Let's at least throw some numbers out there.

Do him.

I believe it.

Yeah.

Word, I do.

Thank you, man.

I was going to write them on the board.

Throw the number out there.

I believe it.

You don't believe it.

I believe that he would turn

down from this Philly pride shit.

Fuck Philly.

All jokes aside, fuck Philly.

Fuck the whole Philly thing.

$100 million for an hour.

No.

No.

Don't start running them by.

You speak your wife?

There's other reasons why I wouldn't go to Saudi arabia as well so it's sort of well chuckle jay don't make it saudi arabia somewhere that makes a favor any rejection israel i've been i've been a a critic of israel i've called i've supported the boycott divan assistant sanctions movement for israel for years um there's obviously a lot going on right now there's no number israel could give me that i would go perform hell no i don't even fly when i when i used to travel isra i wouldn't even fly i wouldn't even use the airport i would spend an extra five hours or if not 20 hours depending on the day flying to another country so i don't have to use the airport like that's what i'm trying to say like it i have to have i have to have a moral consistency here i'm not perfect i make compromises all the time.

I fucking have an iPhone.

You could say, what about the kids in the Congo?

And you wouldn't be wrong.

That's what I'm saying.

I'm not saying I'm perfect,

but I do establish some standards.

You have some lines that's just, I'm not saying I'm in all be-all with everything, but with these, no.

And that's human.

I mean, it's like a conversation about the B-word.

Yes.

You taking that money literally invalidates everything you've been doing for your whole career and the shit you've been talking.

So that's what comes with that.

Now you look like you full of shit.

Right.

Exactly right.

And that's where of bag to me is fuck the money.

My name means something.

It has to mean something.

I don't want nobody.

No, hell no.

Now these comedians

haven't made that commitment.

So I don't hold them to the same standard that I hold myself.

But that's why our job as voices is either activists, podcasters, newscasters, whatever, is to make them aware so that then they have to make that same choice.

Because until they're made aware, I can't be mad at Kevin Hart or Animal Burns for not.

They might not know.

They might not even know.

And honestly, given all the sort of mystique and orientalism that goes on in this world where we start to sort of believe that the Middle East is the place to go.

Everybody wants to go to Dubai.

Everybody wants to go to Qatar.

Everybody wants to go to these places.

I get why people might not know it's a big deal.

They think it's an honor to perform in front of shakes and all that shit.

I get it.

And they're throwing money around like nothing.

Right.

But we got to make them know that.

Let me ask you a question.

What do you think Saudi Arabia's goal is?

You know, they sponsored the boxing event between Canelo and Crawford.

Like, the Prince was there.

Like, Saudi Arabia is taking a lot of sports and a lot of acts over there.

Entertainment.

All of that.

They want to wrestle in too.

So

what do you think their goal is?

Because there were a lot of wrestlers that wouldn't fly.

CM Punk, certain people, I mean, they end up going, but they wouldn't fly initially because of the human rights.

Yeah.

They also kill journalists.

Jamal Khashoggi was killed at the Saudi Arabian Embassy five years ago.

Rest in peace to him, my colleague.

I think the goal is...

Part of it is private wealth to diversify, so it's not just oil.

Part of it is normalizing and deodorizing what happens there.

Yes.

We kill a journalist, which should be an international human rights scare, but instead, Mohammed bin Salman, who's basically like the heir apparent to the king, he goes around the country on a public relations tour, looking like the smooth, slick prince is down with all the boxing and the wrestling.

So you cover it up by doing this.

South Africa used to bring people.

I remember when they brought, and I don't remember, I wasn't alive yet, but there was a time when they brought Aretha Franklin out to perform, right?

And people got mad at Aretha for kind of for crossing a Jim Crow line, basically.

Countries do this.

And let me be clear, the United States does it too.

I'm not saying the United States is exempt.

I'm just saying there are regimes that we should be mindful of especially when the people who are oppressed are calling to us and saying yeah stand with us right don't do this I have to hear that and respond to some degree

what does your job look like when you learn that these people don't some of these people don't give a fuck

um then I can make a choice about whether I choose to support them anymore because a lot of these people don't care about the issue but they care about how it looks I mean we could we we have been trying to tell people not to perform in Israel for over a decade 15 years with the BDS movement, right?

Over that time.

And no one says shit.

But now that everything's happening in Gaza, you can't look away.

And so now people are stopping because it's a bad look.

Saying I'm performing in Israel right now looks crazy.

Five years ago, it didn't.

So what we have to do is put a spotlight on the suffering so that we take the profit out of people's pain.

To add to that, I think that for the most part, they look at Americans like dumb, like we're dippy and we don't know shit.

So it's like automatic, what do we like?

We like food, we like sports.

So we're going to go to the most popping sports event because literally he just standing there.

I mean, it's like, who the fuck is that?

So now niggas googling, who is this Arab guy in the middle of the boxing ring?

They know what that does to people.

Next thing you know, it's cool.

The goddamn costumes go up during Halloween.

People want to dress like that.

They know what they're doing.

And we are perceived to be easily bored, just like they bought all them comics.

Gotcha.

Would you?

Same thing.

Would I go over there?

Honestly, if they called you right now and said, look, we got, I don't know what your rate is, but let's say it's 10 times your rate.

Let's say it's 100 times your your rate, which for some people it was.

Some people said they got 300, one guy said he told me he got, he told me it was off the record, he got 375 to perform.

I don't know, I don't know comedy rate.

375 what?

Million.

375,000 to perform, I think, 20 minutes.

You asking me, would I go for 375?

Yeah.

Let's cut to what do we got?

Nikki and Nelson.

Skoot passed.

Let's just skip past it.

Would it take?

What about for $100?

$100 bands, $1,000?

Yeah.

Me?

Yeah.

Never would I do that.

Nope.

So I'm smelling $250 as your cutoff.

At $250, you would.

No, I'm going to ask you the same 100, but when the camera off, and I want to get the answer then.

Let's talk later.

Gotcha.

Okay.

We'll be good with two, guys.

Oh, I can't pivot the new shit.

Yeah, now you pivot.

No, you can.

His pivoting days

are just about finished on this.

He's crazy.

On this broadcast.

Hey, audience, don't y'all worry.

I'm a new to this dog.

The first name that stood out to me

was having a dog was getting the union gonna handle this.

Chris Tucker don't do stand-up here.

Like, Chris Tucker ain't working, is he?

They

made him work.

They got that nigga out there.

They're paying a lot of money.

SQ couldn't even get him to do Friday 2 and Saudi.

Motor, they're paying a lot of money.

Call ID for that one.

So what?

Chris Tucker checked the call ID for that one.

No, back then, I think he was saying he didn't curse or something.

He was going a more Christian route.

Yeah.

Shout out to to Chris Tucker, my brother.

He's a good dude, man.

Shout out to him.

He's a real good dude.

Good spirit.

Like, I'm going to call him and be like, hey, literally, do you know what's going on at this?

He's not going to answer.

I think that's what should happen.

You should call these people first.

From home.

On your mobile.

From

home, your car.

Yeah, we don't want them to trace the odd people.

Where you spoke to Mel at?

In the car.

Mel Tourmade.

Wherever you have them talks, do the work first and then let's come.

I got to trick this topic board.

We're going to start adding the expound paragraph underneath.

You keep tricking us.

Comedy and Saudi Raphael.

I'm thinking we got good days.

That should sound

that way.

I'm about to do it much.

That's what I thought.

That's what I thought he was about to do.

That's why I was trying to do it after the Asada Shakur Freedom Fight.

No, listen.

No, do all of that with.

Do all that.

I'm like, oh, shit, that's a crazy lie.

And you do that shit.

Ease it in.

You know, you have me hype.

I'm like, oh, shit.

Yeah.

Kevin Hart.

Oh, my God.

Dave Chappelle.

I'm just fighting.

Yeah, you got to be fine.

Not to say these two.

You had by the Sphinx, nigga.

Wow.

What?

I shared my pain.

Yo, if I was in the cult, talk about a guy I would not want to be at the bar with.

This fucking guy.

They did tell me I was too serious in the club.

Yo,

you were too serious in the club.

But yo,

if you don't stand for something, you fall for anything.

I don't think it's wrong.

He stands for what he is.

Stand for it over there in your house

on night school.

You know who'll be on night school, my friends.

Oh, my God.

Anyway,

no, I swore Deaf Comedy Jam was coming to Saudi Arabia.

It might be.

That shit sounded lit.

It sounds like this.

It's actually.

They got four seasons out there.

They do.

They got four seasons.

All the fans are going to take seasons.

They got their own stuff.

You want niggas to not go to them.

Yeah, I ain't going to lie.

I got to email Ian right now.

Mark is done politicizing me.

Never.

And this podcast.

Jesus.

We're all better for it.

Yeah.

Take that shit to y'all little secret Apollo meetings at midnight that y'all may be doing, you and Fat Joe and them.

And don't talk to me.

Don't come up here and fucking do this with me and y'all let Fat Joe in the meeting.

This motherfucker.

I did not invite you to get a bad shit.

You got a lot of nerve.

Silly.

Hey, Fat Joe, check your ass out the floor.

Stop it.

All right, come on.

What else we got?

What else we got?

What else we got?

Holy shit.

We've done it.

We hit everything.

That's it.

No, you could go get out of here.

I'm not asking him.

I'm not asking him.

Is he rapping?

I got another topic.

Oh, yeah, we cool.

I think we did it.

We did it, dude.

We did it.

I think we did it.

Oh, my God.

We're doing it.

What's up, boy?

And I'm pissed.

This is the part where

you ordered some food.

OMG.

Listen, I don't know if y'all saw it, right?

But remember when I leaned up and was like, I'm hungry.

Girl, you was on Instacart.

Girl, I was in your business and your phone.

You was lit last episode.

I promise you.

I promise you.

That clip is everywhere.

And I fought all day not to say it again.

Because guess what, fellas?

I'm fucking hungry.

Here we are.

Well, how many meals did you eat a day?

You know what I was going to do?

Five small ones, protein pack.

Nigga, um, you know what I was going to do?

I was going to fry y'all chicken.

I was going to bring fried chicken, make on your cheese, and yams my first day, but I thought that was kissing ass.

And then, what am I talking?

I brought it to the next one.

Well, make it next time.

Niggas bringing in no motherfucking food.

Why?

Why?

They said that's not a good idea on my first day.

That was a great idea on your first day.

No, it's not.

Well, that's your third day.

You can cook.

Yeah, so do it on your third day.

You know why I really wanted to do it?

I just wanted to tell you I could do it.

Because I can't cook my ass off.

We don't believe you.

You got to prove it.

Who can co-sign your cooking skills?

Juice, can I cook?

That's a fair point.

Thank you.

And the bitch don't even eat chicken.

So Juicy has confirmed that Mona can cook.

Corey has expressed

skepticism that a light-skinned person can make good food.

Can you make mac and cheese?

Let's try this again.

I was bringing

it.

I wasn't going to do it.

I was gonna bring baked macaroni parks because you care I was gonna bring baked macaroni and cheese

fried chicken I cute cheese because it melts better with the cute I want you stick your fork in get pockets of cheese the shredded it just like smears together but I was gonna do baked macaroni and cheese um collard greens with turkey necks or garlic string beans with turkey neck because I don't eat pork and then

hams or sweet potatoes and fried chicken because my fried chicken is really good.

What you're saying is you let someone talk you out of it.

I did.

That was crazy.

Well, or how can we talk you back into that?

No, if y'all want, I'll do it.

No, we do want to.

It's no big deal.

All right, so next week, we're going next Friday.

I'll do it, yeah.

For sure, one.

Let's do it when you want to.

Get an Airbnb and do it out here.

We don't want you driving with that shit all the way down here.

Yo, and you know what?

No, I just know.

No.

I was going to bake that macaroni and cheese here because, like, it only takes like probably 50 minutes.

I was going to bake it here.

Do the chicken here, too.

Let me see it.

Let me work.

No, because I don't know know if y'all got all my stuff.

Okay, you got it.

Like, I had to bring every little thing that's too much work.

No, we're slip is right.

I'm good with you.

He's gonna match all that shit.

Sleep over here in Jersey.

He's right.

Don't be right.

Don't be hitting the road for three hours.

Like, my shit is nice and hot.

That shit be good.

All right,

we do have a part of the show.

Somebody needs our help.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Okay.

This person's name is, what's this nigga's name?

Sir.

Hey, sir.

It just says, sir.

All right, what's happening, sir?

All right, sir says,

Am I the asshole?

Probably love these.

Yeah, if you ask, I love these already.

So recently I told someone that I've been friends with for a long time and consider as a brother that I'm cool with not having a friendship right now.

Here's an example of the situation.

Say you have a girl that's you.

Oh, wait, that must be a typo.

Say you have a girl that you

is your go-to side chick when you was outside.

What What the fuck is this nigga saying?

Say you have a girl.

Used to be?

Oh, that maybe, yeah, that used to be your go-to side chick or when you was outside.

Okay, that makes more sense.

That works, that false.

How would you handle the situation if anyone from the JBP brought her to your party a couple of weeks ago, and that was the first time you found out that they were a thing?

The inspiration?

A friend slash brother of mine brought an on and off side piece to a function where he knew I would be at with my current girl, and I didn't know until I walked in.

Oh, that seems crazy.

Yeah, but he didn't.

He didn't know that the girl was.

He had to if he asking that way.

He had to.

Hypothetically, to help help form a question for the broadcast, am I the asshole for not wanting to be around my friend slash brother because of it?

Would Kino kick it with Amani if Amani brought Edith to your birthday party while Keno was with his new girl, not expecting Edith to be...

That's a little different, I think.

I love how they chose body and Kino, though.

Right.

They know to put Amani in any bullshit.

Which is not fair to Michael.

Who is in

the wrong?

That was so hard to read.

Also, Kino and Edith are a firmly established couple.

That's not a side piece.

That's not a...

I mean, it's a bad example.

But

the devil's always in the details with this one for me.

Like, it depends on if it's...

What did you know?

When did you know it?

And how tight are we?

You know what I'm saying?

Like, all those questions matter.

Like, you can't answer it without that stuff.

If it's the old work,

if your man's new that that was your old work,

that you're on and off old work, and he's bringing her around.

That's where it's how long ago, though.

Like, is it 10 years ago, old work, or is it like last year?

He didn't say old work to y'all.

He said your side piece, you're on and off, like, you're a good go-to.

Like, currently, like, you'll call her again.

Oh,

so you, oh, yeah, that's fucked up.

No, no, that's fucked up.

That's how you took it, right?

He said you're on and off side piece, somebody that you, like, your go-to.

That's the one exactly you is your go-to side piece.

So that's the girl you still call somebody.

That's the one that you call when

he's fucked up.

Oh, God.

Oh, Lord.

To answer your question, homie, you're not the asshole for not wanting to talk to him no more right now.

Nah, well, you're the asshole for being unfaithful to your partner.

Yes.

Agreed.

You're an asshole.

Just agree, except for what he asked.

Where'd you go to high school?

Who wrote this for you, your son?

And if you're being unfaithful to your partner, then that means you're abiding by the rules of the streets.

And if you're abiding by the rules of the streets and you with your girl at a function and your man unbeknownst to him walking with a joint that is your on and off piece, then you and your girl supposed to keep it pee.

You supposed to keep it pee.

But is it unbeknownst to me?

I'm assuming he knew.

I'm assuming the homie knew that that was his homie side piece.

I know that's your old.

You don't know.

You ain't did nothing wrong.

You got a girl now.

You're not fucking with her.

I'm fucking with her.

And now I bring her on.

A friend brother of mine brought my on and off side piece to the function where he knew I would be at with my girl.

And I didn't know until I walked in.

I was like,

I say it a long, long, long time ago.

Decades.

Long time ago, one of the pool parties.

He brought, he had one of my old some leftovers.

No, no.

On and off joint.

He didn't even know, though.

Wait, I brought something?

Yeah.

I told you, this was the first pool party.

I told you.

I was like, yo, that's.

You didn't know.

Their whole legend grows every palm.

But again,

I'm not mad at him.

He didn't even know that I was all that stop.

Yeah.

But see, Deuce said,

Dude said, he brought her where he knew I would be.

All right, listen, let's assume that he knew.

Let's assume that the dude knew.

That's fucked up.

There's no excusing that.

And I know you're going to be there with your joint.

Maybe him bringing her was his way to announce I'm taking her serious.

I like her.

Then we got to have a conversation before that.

If you my brother.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That ain't how I find out.

You call me like, yo, I'm bringing Shorty to the spot.

Me and her is getting serious.

I just want you to know that.

Because if you tell me that,

fuck out.

Nobody gives a fuck.

It's shady the other way.

Yeah, it is.

It's super shady the other way.

It's shady enough to end the friendship.

And that's why I say he knocked the asshole.

If you're my brother, they ain't going to end the friendship, but I got to figure out why you did that.

I think that the time span does matter too, though.

Because he said used to.

Yeah, but on and off.

Like she's on the shit.

We could be off right now.

How long?

What are the whole ass off?

And that's what I said.

If it's 10 years ago, five years ago, last week, that's all different.

If he's still going to have a hard dick and think about calling her, it don't matter how long ago.

Well, that might be a lot of fun.

No, that ain't the dude's standard.

That's his on and off.

When he's not with somebody, he's calling her.

And dude, know it.

I agree with what y'all are saying for the most part.

That's his go-to.

Depends on how long.

On the back, on the flip side of that, for me,

I don't want, I'm not judging my friends for how they handle me

when I'm handling myself wrong.

Right.

I don't think that's right.

That's an interesting point.

That's an interesting point.

Handling yourself wrong with me.

Because he had no business cheating in the beginning.

Yeah.

You wouldn't have to avoid it.

If you move a foul anyway, then, yeah.

It's still cold to move a foul.

You don't sound crazy.

That's just, it doesn't sound crazy.

I agree with Corey, and I can't believe I'm saying that.

I agree with Corey wholeheartedly on that.

That's the problem.

Yeah.

If you agree with Corey,

maybe.

But

let's say a person's moving foul.

That's true.

They shouldn't be moving foul.

And you don't have a duty to protect in a certain way, but you're still my man.

True.

And doing something to me.

But in how I'm calculating it, that's not really your man.

Then that's a different issue.

Well, that's what he's asking.

No, he's asking if he's the asshole.

He's saying that he's the asshole.

Is he the asshole for not fucking with him no more?

Clearly, he's not viewing him in the light of my brother, my brother, my brother.

Right, but I think he's wondering, excuse me, if he's asking if he's the asshole, or not, is my friend the asshole.

He's saying, like, I think he's, I think he's.

Am I wrong?

Yeah, he's saying, am I wrong for feeling the way I feel about how this dude is moving or is my friend moving right?

All right, it's too many words.

Yes or no?

I already said I think dude is fucked up.

I said, dude,

to answer your question directly, no, you are not the asshole for feeling the way and moving the way you're moving towards your man so you considered your brother.

No.

You got a lot of feelings for the on-off joint.

He does.

Niggas feel like

it's a lot of feelings.

Niggas cry tears for the awesome side.

And if you got that.

Niggas love they side bitches more than they main bitch.

Oh, I'm picking up.

Niggas be matching.

Niggas be madly in love with they side bitch and dislike the main bitch a little bit.

Oh, what is the conversation?

What's your role predominantly been?

It depends on what time part of my life we're talking about.

When I was a little younger, I was a side bitch, though.

That was how I think.

When's the last time you've been a side bitch?

It's been years.

I'm old.

I can't be quiet when that bitch call and all that.

I don't got time for that.

Shit.

I can't hold it down no more.

That bitch called me.

I'm gonna say, he's right.

Talk to the bitch.

Like, back in the day, I was told that's my brother.

What?

We just get money.

I would play that game.

Now, as old as I am, I would really he over here.

Come get him.

You made mom here.

She at the door.

Oh, shit.

Yeah, I'm too old today.

And that is always fun at the function when

you can play the game.

Figuring out how long it's going to take your girl to figure out who you fucked in here.

That's fun.

Hey.

He's crazy.

You don't know who's here, K.

You're right.

Hey, all my friends, plus one.

My joint.

This could be like a masquerade ball in a minute.

Oh, my God.

Oh, now it's just fine.

Fine.

You got it.

You got it.

That's just you.

I didn't say it was me.

You said me and you.

I'm talking about him.

Hey, that's way back in the day.

That did used to be fun back in the day.

Like my 30th birthday, we're going to bring some hoes in here and figure out how long it's going to take my girl to figure out who's who.

But she always figured out.

These girls.

Then it'll be a fight outside.

Now you're outside trying to break some shit up in a suit.

And now you're fighting on the way home.

You can't believe your girl punched that bitch in the face.

I don't remember that.

I can't believe she did that.

I tried to Google that bitch recently.

Anyway.

All right.

I think that we've delivered the news in America,

Israel,

Saudi Arabia, Gaza,

Cuba, South Africa, South Africa, Aruba, Jamaica.

Don't forget New Mexico.

New Mexico.

New Mexico, very important.

Yes.

I think we did it, man.

We did it.

We did it.

We did it.

We did it big.

For sure.

We did it big.

We did it.

I hate them.

I'm going to kick kick Mark's ass.

I got a drink for him.

That's the way he said this shit.

Yeah, no, I'm done with him.

Yo, Saudi Comedy, yo, just write Saudi comedy.

Don't write nothing else.

Yeah, nah, we need more or nah.

We need some details.

We need the more button.

We need some pictures for sure.

Okay.

We need some pictures.

Let's see.

Let's end this bad boy.

Get on the body.

Let's end this bad boy.

We are done here.

This is my shit.

This is my song, I ain't gonna lie.

And this is the song of most faithful black man.

This is my shit.

Hey.

Yeah, y'all want me to put that young dog shit on.

I don't care who this nigga told the world.

I'm supposed to give a fuck he ratted.

Hey.

Hey.

Oh shit, all right, Mona.

Put your little tongue in your mouth, girl.

That's my mood.

Put your little tongue in your mouth.

Alright, man.

Hopefully, y'all have enjoyed this show as much as we enjoyed delivering it to you.

Keep us in your prayers.

Lord knows we need to be there until next time.

We bid you a new farewell.

Adio, Cereba, Dirchie, Asta, La Vista, Au R Voir, so long.

Goodbye.

Or a simple head nod will suffice, man.

Who getting fucked?

Hey.

Remember, life is a series of moments and moments pass.

So let's make this one last

as if it's all we have.

I knock her down on my body.

Ego.

Last but certainly not least, the baddies are insecure.

The stagnant women want to travel when the closed-minded women want you to teach them things.

Grab you an Ibuprofran, you might need it.

What y'all doing this weekend, man?

Hey,

Big Mona.

Hey.

What y'all doing this weekend, man?

Anything, anything, anything?

Nothing.

I'm going to a 70s party tomorrow.

You're going to do the little tongue-out move there?

I'm doing studio 54 looks.

Yes, tongue out.

Oh, that means you're spending the night in the bathroom.

They ain't letting you leave there.

They let you leave there.

You just working, man.

Mark, you working?

I was doing that.

I've been chilling this weekend, trying to rest, recover a little.

I wasn't done talking to the new one.

Okay, get your shit off.

Get your shit off, champ.

You got that chill chill shit on me.

Yeah, uh, Flip is working.

Nah, we're chilling this weekend, man.

Chilling, chilling.

Hey, all right.

I'm already outside, man.

I'm back.

Parks, you always outside.

I'm not.

I've been fucking in the house for the last two weeks.

I'm sick.

I'm not sick no more.

Yeah, I'm better.

I'm back.

What's that?

What's my side?

Fuck that.

Oh, nah, I got a cocktail back.

Parks just made me fucking.

Nigga, so my girl left on a Wednesday.

She knows that's my night to go shake a tail feather.

I had big plans.

And the streets ain't seen me in a little while, too.

I was going to go out and have a blast.

Here go my fucking son at six o'clock.

Daddy, can we ride the scooters?

He's been asking me for weeks.

I try to be a good dad.

You know what, son?

Come on, let's go.

We're going to ride some scooters.

Okay.

My scooter's faster than yours.

So I tried to go slow.

Also, something on the handle was broke on mine.

I didn't find out until we went.

So I fell down, almost broke my foot, rolled over on the ground.

Did you,

nigga, my foot was fed.

My foot is mother.

You see me?

My shit's swollen still.

Big job.

You need to see a doctor or some shit.

Yeah, nigga.

She got a canko on it, motherfucker.

Did you put it up?

Like Big Mama.

I put it up.

I put ice on it.

Anyway,

you might gotta go to the Needles design.

I need to go get that shit looked at, babe.

What's wrong with that?

I don't need to get something broken there.

Can you move it?

I can move it now, but

there was a time when I was like, I could barely even walk in this motherfucker.

I say all that to say, tonight.

Got makeup moving.

Hey!

Wait a minute, hey.

Lil broke foot ain't holding me down.

My girl swear.

Never.

I want to go.

Hey,

you go ahead.

I gotta find something else.

Alright, we going.

Y'all hold it down, man.

Peace, love, health, wealth, and prosperity.

Until next time.

Oh, hold on.

Let Bernie Boy get this shit off.

Hey, I'm trying to freak some.

Finna see you, sweet one.

You a freak, zip demon.

And I'm just one more body.

I don't really mean nothing.

Yeah, see, young thug need a couple of the sexy slaps on his album, man.

The niggas that like the sexy slaps,

we went to Gunner's side.

I feel like Gunner's the best at making them songs that make you want to fuck because rap usually don't do that, but Gunnar knows how to do that.

Yes, the other one on this album is um Again, yes, this album is hard.

This album is hard.

All right, man, y'all hold it down till next time.

Stay safe.

I I thought somebody would care, man.
