But I'm giving your props on your troll game recently and how you've been clapping back at fans. I want you to like talk about that real quick because we're in the midst of like, we just stuck up for a friend recently and we're starting to get trolls.

I got a bunch in and most of them I usually like only pick the ones I enjoy. But I remember this feature coming through and I told my engineer, I said this shit bad, but I'mma do it because I feel like, you know, I feel like niggas who saying shit like this don't usually get a feature back from artists of this caliber. And I'mma do it cause I was feeling good, you feel me? And I think it was only for like 500. Like I don't need $500, you feel me? And the song was like, not it, right? And I sent it back and he was like, man, this verse off topic, this ain't it, yada yada. So we refunded him. It was like, all right, well whatever. You don't have to have It. And then he went on a whole rant and been posting about me for months. And the other day, I never even seen it or responded, but my cousin sent it to me and was like, what's up with this nigga? So I was like, man, let me just go. And I confident, like, bro, this ain't even. It's not that deep. Like, I didn't have to do it. It was really. And he's been on a social media run from me since. And that was probably my last trolling. But every now and then, I troll lil shit in the comments too. Like, you know, I like asking niggas, is everything okay at home?

And I'm like, nah, I ain't even got a lighter. And I was finna give him some chicken, you know? Cause I ain't even got it. I was gonna give him a dub.

Nah, that's crazy. So what's next? Can you give us some insight?

[D]

I know you be, man, I'm really building, like, Disneyland. I feel like last time we met, I was talking about everything I was building, and it started coming to fruition. And that's where we at now. We renovated the Backyard. And now look, it's fucking insane. So I've been doing these pop up shows and they've been selling out in 24 hours. So I'm really building on that energy. I'm trying my best to like build home to a point where I never have to leave. Like, I want n to come to the V and feel like la. Like, man, I got the opportunity to make it and change my life here too. Like, we got the same infrastructure. So that's what I'm working on.

[B]

That's crazy. I would never. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not doing that for my hometown. That's raps.

[E]

Why?

[B]

That's raps. Hey, them niggas.

[C]

Every other time you shout out Pontiac.

[B]

Michigan, every time people be trying to down.

[C]

But no, you know why? Because you're like 20 places. Cuz. You say you're from Pontiac, you say you from Nebraska, you say you from South Carolina, you gotta claim one.

[D]

Okay, that makes sense.

[B]

No, but the thing is, I the re my recent beef with Pontiac, them niggas came out with like, like top entertainers from Pontiac. And obviously like Pontiac DDG was on the list. And then like by the time it got to like three or four, I'm like, okay, you can throw me on there. At some point it was a.

[D]

They clicked on.

[B]

But this about a thousand listeners on SoundCloud. I was like, y' all got me up.

[D]

You was under him?

[B]

I was under the I like six, under a. I'm like, bro, who is this?

[E]

Bro?

[C]

That's hate.

[B]

They're like, he did a record with Sada Baby. I'm like, man, all that give a what he did.

[C]

He probably still lived there though. You left, they scared you out.

[B]

Yeah, he probably still live. You never left his room. Same room from high school. That suck, bro.

[C]

All you want. You're not even good.

[B]

I clicked on that nigga.

[C]

What was the battle rap question you had?

[B]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so this, this is. This is what I came up in the car because I think this would be. This would be funny. Not that you gotta say any bars right now, but what would be your battle rap style? Like, what would be your approach? Cause I don't know if y' all watch battle rap. Anybody here watch?

[D]

I used to battle rap.

[B]

You used to battle rap?

[D]

I got videos on YouTube. Me in high school.

[B]

Oh, for real?

[D]

Battle rapping.

[B]

But what would be your style right now? Cause you know, like, you got Arsenal the rebel who kind of like disrespectful and be like, o oh, I'm a pissing your son cereal type shit. Like, he say shit like that. Then you got like, roan and like, some of the white battle rap.

[D]

I would probably be the funny truth telling niggas, like, you hear battle rapping. Me and you don't take care of your kids. We shouldn't be battle rapping. You know, it's like, you have bigger. You got custody battles that you need to be doing. You know, it's like, I would be the funny truth nigga. Cause I'm not coming up here. I hate when I watch battle rap, and I used to love it in high school, but now every time I watch battle rap and I hear niggas rapping hella gun bars and bitch, I be like, you're lying. You're lying. You're lying.

[C]

I was just having this conversation with Pat before, too. I was like, I think the guns keep getting bigger, but the N is getting smaller. And they hold the guns like this.

[D]

It's Yosemite Sam, nigga.

[B]

To be like Two Pistols. Like, no, you know, it's no way.

[D]

You're not breaking.

[B]

You're not breaking a house with two Pistols in your head.

[D]

How are you gonna grab anything? I've never seen a. It just be like, bro, yeah, in high school, that was cool. But now when I watch shit, I just be like, this ain't it. Yeah, I'm.

[B]

I'm rapping about credit score.

[D]

I fuck with Loaded Lux, though. Cause that nigga talk, he. He'll life you down.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

He'll life you down.

[B]

Yeah. Loaded Lux. I'm snuffing him in the second round. Like, by the time he get on me about, like, you feeling away, you grew up. Cause you ain't had a relationship with your father. Like, nigga, watch your mouth. I ain't get that last bar. But the crowd going crazy on him. He's gonna watch that.

[C]

I think my angle probably be, like, showing how nice the person actually is in a sense of, like, he's not that tough. Like, you literally text me if I got home safe last night type shit, you know?

[E]

Right.

[C]

You're a really nice guy.

[B]

He's a good dude, man.

[D]

Hilar.

[B]

Yeah, 3.8 in high school. I got the diploma right here.

[C]

Imagine that being an insult, though. Like, people really get hurt about that. Yeah.

[D]

Being a good school. You could have be a smart.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Or a kind.

[B]

Sometimes I get. I get a 87 on purpose just to let my homies feel good. Like, yeah, we all up on the test.

[D]

My dad, this none of us.

[B]

You hide your paper. What, you get 60? Show us your paper. Hell, no. No, for real. So I've been seeing you been doing a lot of collabs. My favorite collab, the juvie collab is crazy. I feel like. Not to say you rejuvenated his career, but I feel like you put him in front of an audience that I wouldn't say forgot about him, but I.

[C]

Didn'T know he did.

[D]

He just brought that nostalgia back. Like, it reminded N. Like, n he one of them niggas. And this what we do. And it's only like, we really. We do social media in a way that the OGs wasn't using it. So it's not like n forgot. It's just they wasn't present enough for N to have that recollection. And that shit is dope to me. That's all I wanted to do. Like, the juvie moment, the Mike Jones moment. Bun B. Twister. Twister had a moment. Like, we had a clip that went. And it's like, everybody know Twister can rap, but until you see it live in a way that's like, damn, this is this the shit I grew up on.

[C]

That's a live instrument part of it, too. I think it really makes people, like, listen to what people actually saying in a sense. Sometimes, like, beats can kind of be overpowering and stuff like that. But, like, with the juvie thing, that was. It was dope because it was like the live music behind it. Yeah.

[B]

I think sometimes, like, obviously when you hear juvie rapping, if you hear it in passing and you don't pay attention, it kind of sound like he not saying nothing.

[D]

But when you hear, like, don't think about the words.

[B]

Yeah, the live man, you be like, what this shit? This N a pop.

[D]

That nigga be talking, but he actually be talking.

[B]

And then you understand, like, okay. He had to be that talented to make it where he came from.

[D]

It's funny because what you said make hella sense. Cause like, a lot of them juvie songs, like, I know front to back. Cause I used to hear them. But when I was editing and I had to add captions, I was like.

[B]

Damn, this nigga going on the same subject. Like, not. He just not everywhere with it. He talking about the same shit. He going flowing like, okay, that makes sense. This whole thing makes sense. Like, that's what's tough about things. So who? Who else? The Sada, baby.

[D]

The Sada moment was crazy.

[B]

That moment so crazy to me.

[D]

Mike Jones was crazy. Juvie bumby twister life. Jennings, Webby. We did one with Webby with the live band to 6:12.

[C]

Yeah. Yeah.

[D]

Oh, my God.

[B]

What? So do you feel like. I honestly feel like after people work with you, then I see that they social media pick up and I feel like, are you dropping game to them as you're doing it? Like, I do it this way. Cause obviously you do that with us. You're dropping game to them and you see it.

[D]

As many as we can, you know, the ones that we really have in our realm. Like, I try to only work with people that I get to like, really talk. Like, me and Mike Jones was in. It was a dope ass moment. Cause we was in like a bedroom in my mama crib with my mom and smoking and shit and really just chopping games. Same with juvie. Same with life. Like we get the chop before we go do our thing on stage. Because I'm also. I put them all in a new situation. Most of them never perform with the live band in that capacity. You know, like juvie start doing it from the tiny desk, but not in the way that we do it with the choir and everything and. And no set. Like, he don't be knowing what I'mma throw to him. We just go back and forth. So it really put them in, like, it remind them of like hip hop. Like a lot of them. You could see that. That feeling come back to him and that love and that passion.

[B]

Oh, yeah, Good company. Turn tiny desk up, bruh.

[D]

You hear me?

[B]

Turn that up.

[C]

Did a whole splash to go crazy.

[B]

Everybody was going crazy, man. That's dope. That's dope. That's dope.

[C]

You know something I just found out yesterday was you can now use AI to polish your messages and in on ig And I think, what do you mean? So you can type your message and then you can click the little pencil button and it can like rewrite it for you and polish it up in grammatical errors. And I think that shouldn't be because this happened. One of my friends said that their wife or their wife was arguing with the. The husband, right? And she felt like they were using AI to like polish what he was saying. He was using like words. Like words were being used like surmise and like that. Like, I never heard him say that. So I think dude's gonna try to start like sliding in girls DMS and using AI to kind of polish their. Their grammar and stuff like that.

[B]

Hey, man, game is game. The thing is like, you know, you know, a lot of can't spell.

[D]

Okay, that's what I tell Spell it. Yeah, you gotta sometimes you gotta put it in.

[E]

Spell it.

[B]

Yes.

[C]

It's the quickest comeback and the easiest one.

[D]

It shut the whole convo down.

[B]

You already got autocorrect so I feel like we've already been on that thing of of people enhancing their intelligence by using something else. But honestly, I know I got my little chat GBT and I can tell when somebody use it. We talked about them long ass dashes that people have that they don't type with using these big ass words. If somebody respond to me in chat gbt, I mean like they don't respect you. Yeah, you think I'm a you sent the computer my way. I got you bro. And I'm playing Yo, let's take a quick break from the podcast to thank today's sponsor. Earnest Life doesn't happen bi weekly, so why should Payday, the money you've earned should be in your hands.

I don't know what podcast it was, but I didn't like that the podcast put out the Kevin McCall clip.

[D]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Back on Fig, he went on, back on Fig.

[B]

Back on Fig. I don't know if I.

[D]

Why not?

[B]

Because I felt like. I felt like that's something that you hold for a little bit and let him come back and just be like, maybe I don't want to put that out because we in such like a day and age where I feel like you got to protect people, especially as vulnerable. I'm not going to lie. If a rapper got on here and we was interviewing a rapper and he started talking about somebody major because we already got in trouble for that with the T Pain stuff. So learning our lessons. That's why I'm saying this. And what happened, T Pain said something about Drake. You know, he was, he was sipping, you know, drinking and stuff. We was having a good ass time. And then he was like, he don't want to be in a Drake position where people trying to tell him to retire. He want, he want to go before that or he want to make his own and not worry about what the fans think and then have people judge him like that. And I think he got taken out of context and people was like, on T Pain and it was like, oh.

[D]

We live in an interesting point of society today. Like n almost look to do that. Like no matter what you say and how you say it, they're looking to like take it wrong.

[B]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

[D]

It Ain't nothing you could do about it. Like, there's no the Kevin McCall shit. Different, though. Yeah. If I'm like. If I'm going through some shit and I break down crying on a set, maybe hold that clip.

[B]

Yeah. Like, yeah, let a nigga wipe his tears first. Like, hold on. Y' all don't even put that shit out. I was tweaking like a was in the edit room. Like, we got one Zoom. I ain't never seen the EBT card that clear. They could tap the focus right there. Hold that EBT up one more time, Chris. I didn't even know Chris Brown was gonna respond to that. That's what even make did he respond. Young thug responded to him. Young thug reached out.

[D]

What Chris Brown say?

[B]

Chris Brown said, I have to check his story because, you know, trolls. Be honest. I have to go to, you know, the page. He said, remember this. You can't walk across a burnt bridge. And you know what's funnier than a troll? A broke one.

[C]

But we also don't know what the.

[D]

Relationship walk across a burned bridge.

[B]

We don't know what Kevin McCall said to him.

[D]

Yeah, and that's the thing. You don't know the context of the story in any of that. And, you know, in the music business, it's tricky. But, yeah, when you don't know context, it be tough. Because when you see niggas who take care of a thousand people, and there's one nigga like, but you fucked me over and didn't get me, right? It's like, you have to know context. Cause it's like, damn, everybody else got good. And it's always gonna be that. It's not to say that he's wrong or right. Well, you know, either one could be in the wrong. But without context, it's like, that's why them conversations ain't for us to be in. It's like, that's they shit.

[B]

That's what I was saying. By, like, putting out the clip, you put Chris Brown in a bad position.

[C]

Well, Chris Brown didn't have to respond.

[B]

He technically did, because it make it. Cause if Kevin McCall is saying something, let's say they actually had.

[D]

Cause they like, you got this nigga wrote one of your biggest songs, and you got him on ebt. It make you feel like you gotta say something.

[B]

You know, the first thing people in America do, they, like, find out your gross revenue. And then they be like, you can't help your mans out. Like, people think people don't know. Like, okay, let's say I say, I made a million dollars a year, and my sister went online and be like, yeah, my brother ain't giving me 50,000. People look at a million dollars a year and 50,000, like, damn, you can't get your sister. This is the equivalent to me giving my sister a thousand. I would've given my sister a thousand. And they don't realize, like, people be having their money tied up into other things.

[D]

Exactly. And it's like, bro, we all got the same opportunity to make something of our life. You feel me? Like, that ain't your job or your role to have to do that for another adult who had the same nigga. Deuces came out when I was in high school. It's like, bro, you had all this time to make something else in lieu of your journey. Like, that can't be his fault. You feel me?

[B]

Nah, it's never his fault. That's what I be trying to tell my cousin. My cousin be wanting me to put him on the pot as a third host, and I be like, trying to give him. Gang. I be sending him, like, podcast equipment. Like, yeah, buy this if you want to start. I would start doing stuff like this. He's like, nah, bro, I need to come to Milwaukee and sit down with y' all and be on third host. So I'd just be like, bro, just put the fries in the bag.

[D]

And you know what's crazy is, like, you really. You can't give a nigga a position they didn't earn. Like, I learned. I've had to learn that throughout my journey, because they'll never. Something will always go wrong. You feel me? It's like winning the lotto for a million dollars. It's like, you didn't work to earn that paper, and most of the time, people gonna lose it because you don't have what it take. You didn't have what it took to get it, so you definitely don't have what it take to keep it.

[B]

That's our rule. Yeah, my rule is when my sisters ask me about the whole thing, and it better be before, not no two days before. Because if I give you this money for this certain bill, you gonna. This might as well be my bill now, because why am I. It's due on the 29th. I'm paying it on the 29th. You need to be asking me money to get ahead. So when my sister come to me with a plan like, I need 500 to get ahead of this, I'd be like, okay, here, go. Yeah, but 300 for a bill due Tomorrow.

[D]

God damn.

[B]

Where that that be sleeping there at? That's when you start checking the okay. You broke up with him last week. What about him, though? He had no money. Why he in the crib? What are you doing?

[C]

Especially in the music industry, are there, like, have you seen people burn bridges with you and try to, like, circle back in a sense? And what are you, like, the person, like, if a bridge is burnt with you, like, you don't go back to that situation.

[D]

Yeah, and I've been the one to burn bridges as well, you know, like, early in my journey, I've tarnished a lot of relationships because I was, like, hyper emotional. Like, if I felt away or disrespected from something somebody did, I spoke on it and I spoke how I felt. Even if, like, I didn't mature to the point to realize that things wasn't personal. So I took them personal. And that burns the bridge and you can't go across. But for a nigga like me, I went and got a boat. You hear me? So it wasn't no problem. N learned how to swim and got his own boat. Yeah, that shit happened. And with me, I'm like, I'm hyper empathetic. So generally, like, if a nigga burned the bridge with me, I know that it's like, you going through your own shit. This ain't got shit to do with me. Like, you gotta go to the extreme for me to be like, nah, I can't fuck with you at all. Like, I already know. I know how shit be. And I know how niggas get when they broke, too. Like, that shit as a man. Especially like, nigga, when you down, everybody an enemy. Nigga, you feel me? When you down, everybody an enemy to you.

[C]

I think the more broke you are, sometimes the more your ego kind of goes up too. Especially if you have, like, a perception.

[D]

That you don't feel like yourself, you know? And it takes a lot of discipline to, like, go broke and keep it all together until you come back up. A lot of people go broke and it break them completely. They end up broken.

[B]

Yeah. And they broke forever. And it's like, yeah, my ego. My ego would be fucked up. Cause, like, when I was broke, if somebody tried to buy me a shot, boy, that shit pissed me off so bad. Oh, you think you miss her money, huh?

[D]

Not Mr. Money in there. Thirsty.

[C]

Yeah, some people say it's, like, hard to. Some people say it's hard to, like, work with friends and stuff like that. Do you feel like it's hard to work with Friends and family.

[D]

I think it can be. I think. I think it's the hardest and the easiest thing to do, depending on who the friend is and how the relationship is. I've built my business with a lot of my homies, but I've also tarnished a lot of business with homies as well, you know? So it really depends on, like, where y' all at as homies in a relationship and what they want. I think the difficulty comes when, like, you want your friends to be involved, and they never really wanted that for themselves, you know? Like, when I started, I had a lot of homies with me, and this was my dream, that they were like, oh, that's cool. I'm willing to help you. But it wasn't something that they was willing to wake up every day and dedicate their life and do everything it took to make it happen, even in a spare time. Like, I don't have spare money and time. You feel me? Like, all the extra money I get, I invest in this shit. Extra money other niggas get, they go, you know, do, like, what they want to do. So it's different when you're like, this is everything I want. And then you got a homie who's like, nah, that's cool, but I don't really want that. But when you get homies, that's like, no, this is all I want too. And I'm dedicating my energy and life to it. It works.

[C]

Yeah. Cause we talk about this a lot when we see podcasts break up sometimes. And I'd be like, I don't think they were really friends to begin with. So it makes more sense.

[D]

Sometimes you are friends. It's just like, you gotta think some of your homies you meet at different points in your life when different things matter to you. You know, it's like we used to go to the club and hang. So it's different when it's like, no, I'm trying to build a billion dollar company. You're not. We used to get high in the car and chill. Now I'm trying to build a billion dollar company. Sometimes that alignment don't stick, you know? Cause niggas are still on that fade. They not even into what you into.

[C]

And I think, too, as you get popular too, with groups, sometimes I think people let the audience split them apart as well. It was at the beginning of the pod, too. Like, there was people like, oh, Pat's way funnier than Mike. And I comment, like, yeah, duh. That's why we. That's why this works.

[D]

And that's the thing. Like, you gotta. You gotta be so tight in what you do that that don't bother you or interfere with what you do. Like, I'm a nigga. I got, like, my little homie Mally. I got a lot of really dope people around me, and I'm not ashamed to pass the mic and be like, I know that nigga can sing better than me. I'm gonna let him do his thing and get off. That don't make me j. It ain't nothing a nigga could say to make me feel on how I feel about them. But some people, like I say, when you get low in your ego, you get persuaded by the noise. And it's hard, especially as an artist or like any nigga with a craft. Like, when you see certain comments, you believe part of you believe it. And you gotta correct yourself and be like, nigga, you on the couch. I'm in the game.

[B]

That's the key right there. I always got beef with the person that said it. No, let's compare me and your life.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

I see three kids and no mom, niggas, a single dad. To me, life is hard. But no, I fuck with the message that you be giving. Have you ever thought about live shows as far as touring with other artists and getting other artists? Either you're collabing with them or is that tougher because you're independent and they usually are working with a label?

[D]

What you mean?

[B]

Like, so, like. So, like your backyard shows, right? You mainly do them by yourself and you feature artists?

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Have you ever thought about going on tour with artists that's, like, obviously got his name.

[C]

Just as we have to go to a chance.

[D]

Yeah, we just finished with Chance. We did with T Pain last year. And even those, like, I prefer Torn in my own capacity just because sometimes it's really conflicting for me performing for, like, someone else's audience because different energies is curated and we kill every show. Like, we leave every show with fans and people. Like, man, we fuck with that shit. But I'm so used to. I have a bar for, like, just my community and my shows that I really enjoy more. Just building and cultivating that and letting that get bigger. Cause even the process of people coming into the venue and what they feel and experience at a La Russell show is completely different. Like, we don't have n overly drunk and shit.

[B]

Like.

[D]

Like, it's really like a family. And when new people come in, they get embraced by the community. So that experience really set a bar for me. To where I really do enjoy touring, like in my, in the way that I do. But I also like, like I love being on the Chance tour and being able to see him and holla and add that energy to the atmosphere and build it up. And like we did a show together in Frisco and everything just felt good. Cause we was able to really build that energy and space to where like he had one of his favorite sets and he felt that too, you know. So I like being able to contribute, but I do enjoy being like dolo more.

[B]

Yeah, you got the cheat code. Cause we went to a live show and it was somebody showing us where the food was, where the drinks was. And I was like, oh, this dope. You know, Russell, he got everybody in here working and then the person turned around and started watching the show. I said, wait, this nigga don't work here. Yeah, this is where everything at. But it's just like it's the community. You don't know, you don't know who rapping, you don't know who having fun, you don't know who who in the crowd about to grab a mic. Like, it's just so dope.

[C]

Like everybody's really like intermingled too. Like usually like you see events like that, you just see like all the musicians and the talent in like one little circle and stuff like that.

[B]

They be in a tent and shit, bro.

[D]

The coolest shit. We had a pop up show recently and after the show like I had went out in the front and it's so dope because everybody just in the front talking to each other like in a. Like usually like when we go to live shows, when we leave, we leaving. We don't know these niggas. So it's like, you know, we just leave. But at my shows, you'll see n in the front chopping it up, smoking together. Some people who just met that day, who like, we cool now, you know, and some of these families, they kids play together now and they. Bro, I went to my mama house one night and all the kids that be at the shows and shit was having a sleepover at my mama crib, just playing with it. And it was like the most beautiful shit in the world to me. Because that's the kind of community we built. Like they, it's one, you know, it's like, bro, we all fuck with each other, we all enjoy the same thing. And you don't get that with shows. Like usually when you go to a show, it ain't no community. Like you might not even talk to the nigga right next to you. You feel me?

[B]

No, you got. You know what you gotta do for me? You gotta make a mosh pit song or turn that backyard show up. I'm gonna get my ass.

[D]

It's just you looking at you like this ain't got no etiquette.

[B]

We got some listener callers cooking up. We got a couple questions and about to rock out with it.

[E]

My hot take is that the NBA needs to be a little bit more Reese's again.

[B]

Yeah, speak. Yeah, speak up a little bit.

[E]

Hold on. I'm at work.

[D]

I'm about still that nigga whispering. That master walking across the field right now that in a bush. He said, the NBA need to be more racist again.

[B]

They just ducked in the corn stalk. Hold on real quick. Hold on, hold on, hold on.

[E]

I had to step outside real quick.

[D]

Loud.

[C]

Repeat your statement with. With. With more confidence.

[E]

Okay. I feel like the NBA need to be a little bit more racist again. That's how I feel.

[C]

In what.

[E]

In what direction, man, Stop playing. I don't know.

[D]

I feel like, what race are you?

[B]

Yeah, that's a good question.

[E]

I'm black.

[D]

Okay, okay.

[E]

There we go. That's what I'm trying to get.

[B]

Knew that already.

[E]

No, no, no, I'm black. I just felt like when he had David stir. That was stirring on Adam Silver. Should I be like, bro, get away with too much?

[B]

No, he's saying he let your black parents get away with too much.

[D]

What you feel like getting away with, man?

[E]

Remember when Gilbert Arenas had that gun one time? David Stern got him the out the league. But you got. But what's it called with Adam Silver? John Moran brought this twice. And they're like, all right, now we gotta do something. Like it be. That. Be getting away with. I'm like, bro, I just feel like when came to. To the games dressed up with suits and this came to take care of business. But now they could just be chilling.

[B]

Your great, great granddaddy was a slave catcher. This the one they said, you know where he went? Go get him and bring him back. You want David Stern back? I ain't never heard this before. Whoever said this.

[E]

Last time you watch. When was the last time you watched a basketball game and you was like, man, this fire. Be honest.

[D]

You know what?

[C]

Houston versus.

[D]

I agree with this.

[B]

Okay?

[D]

And I have to agree because, yeah, it's different now. You feel me? Like. Like the caliber of that used to how serious it was. We went to All Star Weekend, and.

[C]

Bro, be quiet.

[D]

I don't know what the happened. Sound like that getting strangled like a.

[C]

I thought it was just like, me tweaking for a second. This nigga is still like.

[B]

Shut the up.

[C]

You got it?

[E]

I got it.

[D]

Back to work.

[C]

Oh, man.

[B]

Remember what you said.

[D]

No, I went. We went to NBA All Star Weekend, right? And the All Star game and the energy and the culture of it is just, like, not the same. You could tell niggas ain't enjoying that shit no more. And it's because all the. All the life left and the niggas who was really dolls, who like, nigga, I do this, and I'm on this court to hurt. That's why I love Anthony Edwards, bro. He's.

[C]

He.

[D]

He just feel like he's still trying to hurt every time he goes to the court.

[C]

Yeah, I know what you mean.

[B]

Like, that competitive spirit. Like, oh, y' all energy different. Y' all not going clubbing together after type. Yeah, yeah.

[C]

And for you, how does this affect your life? No, no, like. Like your everyday life.

[E]

That.

[C]

This is a hot take for.

[A]

[A]

Okay, so, man, men standing on bars and platforms.

[C]

What you got against that?

[A]

I'm. I just don't understand it. Honestly, it looks weird. It's giving very much. Like, pick Misha or Go Go dancer.

[B]

You talking about, like, at a club or just anywhere?

[A]

Yeah, yeah, at a club. And I'm not talking about, like, if you got a section. Yeah, obviously guys get sections. I'm talking about, like, you being general population standing on a bar or, like, trying to stand in people's sections. As a man, you know, it doesn't look. It doesn't look good.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Do you know what I'm talking about? I know. I'm pretty sure you guys have been seeing this a lot on TikTok.

[B]

Like, dudes getting up on, like, bars and couches, dancing in a section. So you said no man should get up on any furniture and dance.

[D]

Nah, she said in general. Like, if we all live in a general section, and you say, I'm finna stand on this bar right here, we gonna all look at you like, nigga, get down.

[B]

Get down, bro. Okay, ok.

[C]

Trying to be the life of the party. Too much. But what is this? Having fun.

[B]

Wait, wait. When is the last time you got on the bar or platform?

[A]

Last weekend.

[B]

Okay, okay. There we go. The problem, they taking your shot.

[A]

You're supposed to get, like, the women should be up there, you know? Like, I just feel like it's funny talking about it. And, like, he was saying that, like, women have made it that way. So like, before, men used to go to the club and approach women. Women. And they used to get told, like, ill, you know, or, like, whatever. So now men will go to the club, keep their money, and just interact with women. That will give them the mutual, like, response.

[B]

Sounds like a good assour. Like, oh, man, just keep their money and only talk to people that are interested in them. They don't come to us so we can re.

[A]

And I'm like. I'm confused because, like, I'm a little bit older than him, so I. When I was clubbing, it was, like, 2013 when I started.

[D]

So, like, she said, then him. So this is specific.

[B]

Oh, is she talking about somebody?

[D]

Yeah, this is specific.

[A]

Not specific. No, no, no, no. Not specific. We're talking about it.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

And, like, that was my man's look on it, you know, he was just saying will.

[E]

Like, has he ever.

[B]

Because has he ever been on some platform dancing?

[A]

Well, like, when he gets sections. Yeah, but, like, he's not up on the. You know, on the couch, like, with.

[B]

And if.

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

And if he do. And if he do, what you gonna do?

[A]

He better have a bunch of around and not.

[B]

Got a swinger on the phone.
