Key Points:

• Economic Pros: Creation of jobs and business opportunities within communities.

Duration: 45:00 - 58:00

Key Points:

• Evolution of Rap Battles: From being a pure expression of lyrical skill to being influenced by social media presence and public perception.

[Guest 3]

Necessary vgw group void where prohibited by law 21/ terms and conditions apply the volume congrats to NAS for the world Casino Resort Putting out the commercial, but the amount of people were like, that's how you respond to Jim. Look what Nas did. You think Nas saw Jim Jones say that and then was like, you know what? I'll go get a casino. And does someone have a camera? Yeah, I'll do a voiceover today.

[Host]

People are, you know, people are a little slow.

[Guest 1]

I mean, the timing of it couldn't have been any better, though. I will say that.

[Guest 3]

Oh, no, it. It definitely timed up great.

[Guest 1]

The timing couldn't have been any. Any better. Like, you know, you want to talk about going viral? I mean, Nas brought a casino to Queens. He's part of the ownership that bought a casino to Queens.

[Guest 3]

I believe this is in Albany. Oh, what? There is. There's already a casino in Queens. Okay. Because I did see in the commercial, they put up Albany as well. So I was. And I thought it was just branding with the queens to forever whatever the it was.

[Host]

But he's receiving a little bit of.

[Guest 3]

Backlash, of course, you know, team all day. But I'm kind of with some of the backlash not at Nas for investing in a casino. Gambling is the most lucrative thing right now. It's legal. Like, as a business investor. Yes. It makes sense to do casinos, gambling websites. You even see Drake, who's a billionaire steak hove's trying to bring Caesars to New York. Like, I get it, but the way they frame these trailers is worse than we did with Palooza of like, wait, this is just a party. I was just talking like he was changing the world, dog. It's gambling.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, but I mean, you know, it's. It's. It's.

[Guest 3]

It is gambling to the world, dog, is blackjack.

[Guest 1]

No, you're right.

[Guest 3]

You acting like he just created subsidized housing in Fort Rockaway. No, it's a casino.

[Guest 1]

No, you're right. But, I mean, you know, these commercials are nuts, but coming from where Nas comes from, they didn't. They never would expect to be able to even sit in the board and have anything to do with opening.

[Guest 3]

No, I get that, but I totally understood, especially the people that don't hold Nas to the regard that we do or, you know, view Nas the way he's been part of our lives for so long. Just saw that commercial of, like. Wait, this voiceover is about a casino? What?

[Host]

Well, the backlash. The backlash.

[Guest 3]

Are you bragging about raising a crime rate in a neighborhood?

[Host]

Yeah, the backlash I've been seeing is why. Why are Nas and Jay Z so willing and able to invest money into things that are absolutely terrible? For their community, Such as gambling, such as alcohol, which is it terrible for the community.

[Guest 1]

A lot of niggas in the community gonna be working. It.

[Host]

Is. Gambling and alcohol are terrible for our.

[Guest 1]

Popeyes is terrible for the community.

[Host]

I'm sorry.

[Guest 1]

Popeyes is terrible for the community Yesterday.

[Host]

Okay, so one doesn't, like, negate the other. Like, I get completely what you're trying.

[Guest 1]

To say, something terrible for the community. But on the flip side of it, you know how many jobs a casino is going to open up for people that live in our communities? You know how many people are going to be able to work at this casino and have a job? So I get it. I get what you're saying. Like, people going there gambling, people going to gamble anyway. You can gamble. I could bet right now that the Yankees won't score six runs tonight on my phone. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, that's not Jay Z's fault. That's not Nas's fault. Like, people gonna gamble no matter what. Gambling has been around forever, and it's gonna be around forever.

[Host]

Yes, but there's also. Go ahead, Rory.

[Guest 1]

Statistically, the Barclays, they thought the Barclays was a terrible idea. When Jay got behind it. It was a terrible idea.

[Host]

Look at Rory's like, it is.

[Guest 3]

It still is displaced. The whole community. Like, it changed.

[Guest 1]

Yes, it did.

[Guest 3]

It was fucking awful.

[Guest 1]

It did. But how many people from Brooklyn thank.

[Guest 3]

God we have an Applebee's on Flatbush?

[Guest 1]

I'm just saying, how many people work at Barclays?

[Host]

Well, that Applebe has been there.

[Guest 3]

Yeah, but.

[Host]

But yes, there's plenty of jobs. Yes, but it also displaced hundreds of people who had lived there for, like, their whole entire lives, and it pushed.

[Guest 3]

The price up of that entire neighborhood.

[Host]

Yeah, like.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Guest 3]

I mean, there's no control. When their landlords were getting offers to just sell, they.

[Guest 1]

It's always going to be a landlord.

[Guest 3]

Come in, they raise the rent to crazy. Like, I've been living here for 20 years.

[Guest 1]

Listen, when change happens, that's exactly what happens. Things change. So I get it. You're right. I'm not saying y' all are wrong, but you can't just look at. Oh, people got displaced. Oh, how many people gonna be gambling and losing their money? True. They're gonna gamble. If that means the lady that live in your building in the hood gotta get on the bus to go to Atlantic City to gamble versus get on a train to go right to Midtown to gamble. Ms. Barbara gonna gamble is all, is what I'm saying. She gonna spend that motherfucking Social Security money. She gonna try to flip it on the, on the, on blackjack. Whether she gotta go to Atlantic City or, or go to Times Square, people going to gamble.

[Guest 3]

All right? I mean, statistically, no matter what, when a casino enters a city neighborhood, the crime rate statistically goes up. That happens no matter what.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, cuz I'm broke now and I got to get it.

[Guest 3]

That's going to be regardless, which, I mean, I don't know. Times Square being an option right now. Hell's Kitchen, Times Square for the Caesar's palace one that Jay Z and them are trying to bring amongst a bunch of Saudi billionaires. I'm sure they do have regulations. And I only know this because it directly affected my family. Because you know, in Hell's Kitchen, that community, like they meet with them and have certain things they have to meet to make sure that they're not displacing a neighborhood. Now there are regulations now which I do appreciate. And the things you have to do in the community to even bid to do a casino now, like they're trying to make it a little bit. Yeah, because we've seen what the fuck it's done to neighborhoods and cities. But you gotta understand the crime. Like imagine you just have your neighborhood in a casino lands there. Now it's you live in a tourist attraction which was once your neighborhood. Like the crime part, like now that come on walking outside to a casino.

[Guest 1]

I, listen, I get it. But if we gonna do that, we gotta say the same thing about them opening up a Starbucks on every corner.

[Guest 3]

I don't disagree.

[Guest 1]

Sugar's killing niggas. Like how Ray J said asses are being taken at rates that nobody has ever seen. Like the connection. I'm just, I'm just saying Sugar. Sugar is killing me.

[Guest 3]

Where Ray J got that statistic?

[Guest 1]

Listen, man, I don't know what Ray J know. He just know asses are being to.

[Guest 3]

Ray J census on things.

[Guest 1]

I'm just saying, man, if we gonna say that about a casino, we gotta say it about Starbucks, we gotta say it about Popeyes, we gotta say it about McDonald's, we gotta say it about all of this shit that's giving niggas high blood pressure, heart disease, fucking strokes, it's the same shit. Pick your PO again.

[Guest 3]

This is going to sound like a fucking ad for ROC Nation. I promise you, is the most unbiased thing ever. I do think it's important when people like Jay Z do bid for that. Because I do, despite what most people think I Do think Jay Z cares about the community? That if he is going to do a capitalistic move. We know him to be a capitalist, a great businessman. He's also going to make sure that the neighborhood's not completely fucked. And I've seen that firsthand just off the bids with this entire thing with Hell's Kitchen. Nas, I think, is one of those people, too, that does care. Yeah, of course they're capitalist.

[Guest 1]

I. I'm. I'm on the side of people like that about their community.

[Guest 3]

I prefer people like that instead of just all the CEOs that they showed in that NAS trailer. Like, all right, maybe somebody that cares about the community is in that boardroom.

[Guest 1]

One of us in the boardroom, man.

[Guest 3]

Because it's going to go up. Regard.

[Guest 1]

Regardless.

[Guest 3]

Didn't need Nas.

[Guest 1]

That's my point. That's my point where they don't need Nas. They don't need Jay, they don't need none of these dudes. It's gonna go up if they wanted to or not. It's gonna happen if they wanted to. What I'm saying is, okay, get Jay in there. Let him kind of like, yo, listen. No, but we can't do that because the community, we can't knock this down. This is a staple in the community. Do this like, so just have, have somebody that represents us and looks like us in those rooms and to close.

[Guest 3]

Right before we get to voicemails. I think they're. They're targeting the wrong guys, though. Like, I think they need someone like whack 100 in those, those rooms. Because if you remember the casino that's already in Queens, they opened a Wet Willys. And on Piru that was shut down that day. It went viral on World Star, actually.

[Guest 1]

Oh, yeah, That's a fact.

[Guest 3]

So I get with. With Nas and Jay, but now you need to. You need to get some gang members in there to calm down, because they'll. They'll shut this queen's casino down in two seconds. Yeah, you know, there's history of it.

[Guest 1]

You know, Whack got somebody text messages on the board like, he. What he doing? I got his text messages from 2003. He don't even like, y'. All. Yeah, Whack gonna keep a text message from a. A flip phone from 03 for sure. He got him.

[Guest 3]

Listen, Nas is Nas, but if you don't think that the snows on. God. Brewer won't shut down this casino in two seconds.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Guest 3]

Sorry.

[Guest 1]

I'm mad at it, man.

[Guest 3]

You're commercial.

[Guest 1]

This is, this is Going. I know there's one in Albany, but is this going up in Queens? Okay.

[Guest 3]

Where? Next to the one that's already there.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, it's like. To build around it like a stadium.

[Guest 3]

Okay. To build. Okay. By Aqueduct. Because aren't they shutting down? Listen, too local.

[Guest 1]

That'd be. That'd be fire. If Nas get like a residency there.

[Guest 3]

Oh, you know it's coming.

[Guest 1]

Keep doing residencies in Vegas. Get a residency right there in Queens. That. See shit like that is what I'm like. Okay. I can kind of see if it's going to be a. Like a stadium there. Like. Okay. I could see that type of coming out of it. Like, it's always a play, man. Yeah.

[Guest 3]

No. As if the Belt Parkway is not already a parking lot. Listen, let's add. Let's add some more casinos there.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, let's do it.

[Guest 3]

But you know, I think Jay Z should do a residency for the Super Bowl.

[Guest 1]

A residency for the Super Bowl.

[Guest 3]

Ten half times in a row.

[Guest 1]

That's crazy. That's the same.

[Guest 3]

Same set.

[Host]

I'm gonna be parked every time.

[Guest 1]

That's crazy. Oh, my God, a casino.

[Guest 3]

And there's already not enough parking for City Fields.

[Guest 1]

Jesus.

[Guest 3]

Oh, yeah. I did see the Coney island one too.

[Guest 1]

Oh, man. The homies shooting. But they're gonna be at that crap table all. Jesus Christ. It man. Damaris. They gonna smoke weed. They had to legalize it as they had to. You know what I'm saying? They had to make it to where you don't get arrested. They gonna smoke it no matter what. Gonna shoot dice, Damaris.

[Host]

Yeah, but there's a such thing as making things too accessible. Too accessible. Yes. Yes. Things are too accessible.

[Guest 1]

Been too accessible.

[Host]

Gambling has not been too accessible in New York City. They are making it so accessible.

[Guest 1]

Damaris, do you know what the hood is going through on Fanduel right now?

[Host]

I do.

[Guest 1]

Do you know. Do you know what these little uptown is? Gambling. Every week on Fanduel, you're more likely.

[Host]

To buy liquor if. Even if you're an alcoholic, you're more likely to buy liquor if there's one on your corner. Which is why people complain about the.

[Guest 3]

Mary put that in effect in the 60s.

[Guest 1]

But the. What I'm saying is I remember when.

[Guest 3]

Would cross the bridge to Jersey. Yeah.

[Guest 1]

Just to put a. A ticket in on their phone. Literally cross the bridge, connect to the towers over there so they can put in a ticket on Fanduel and come right back uptown to Harlem, you know?

[Guest 3]

You know the Poppy bus. They going gamble.

[Guest 1]

No matter what you do.

[Guest 3]

Sunday was just full of everybody from uptown on the poppy bus going across the GW just to put a ticket.

[Guest 1]

In and come right back across.

[Host]

Can you imagine how many people actually had never even gambled. Gambled before? But the moment they it became legal in New Son was like, oh, let me try it. And you don't. Sometimes you don't know that you have a problem or that you can become addicted to something until you try it for the first time. And some people won't try things for the first time because it isn't accessible to them. Just like if somebody might not have tried crack, but if somebody offers them crack because it's, oh, we just ordered a. Opened a crack store on the corner here, try crack. Now you're addicted to crack when you would have never tried crack before because it wasn't accessible to you. So of course the hard did that.

[Guest 1]

We saw Bill Russell kill him at the end of the movie. So it is what it is.

[Guest 3]

And he made a lot of good points though, that there were no Uzis made in Arlen. Yeah, no one in there owned a poppy field.

[Guest 1]

See, we didn't land on Plymouth Rock Damaris. Plymouth Rock landed on us. See what I'm saying? Either way, gonna gamble, gonna drink and gonna drink sugar. They gonna do either. Either way, it don't matter what you do. They gonna, they're gonna find it, travel for, for food. They don't care your over here, they got this word, I'm going over there. It don't matter if you put it on my block. It's just like, all right now, I ain't got to travel that far, but they going to get it. It don't matter.

[Guest 3]

And it's. I mean, once the government saw how much we was making, it wasn't the concern for the citizens. It was, how do we get in on this? Oh, let's legalize it and take everything over.

[Guest 1]

Let's tax it.

[Guest 3]

Gambling. Oh, shit. This is what y' all making. Let's tax say less.

[Guest 1]

Fanduel was like, no, you ain't got to come to Jersey no more. It's available everywhere.

[Guest 3]

I'm. I'm going to get on one of like my dad rant so we can get to voicemails. But the fact that loan sharking is illegal should tell you everything. The United States government.

[Guest 1]

There you go. That's a great point. That's a great.

[Guest 3]

Why is it illegal for me to lend somebody money at a certain price point the same way you do with credit cards in Your bank. Why is that illegal? I'm not saying harm like I'm not.

[Guest 1]

Going to hurt the government's not.

[Guest 3]

Why am I not? Why do I have to go to jail because I lent somebody money on a point system the same way you do when you force credit cards down my fucking throat?

[Host]

No worrying now.

[Guest 1]

So the other day on, on Twitter, somebody said it ain't a nigga on this earth that can rap with Jid. Not one. And Nick Grant music, Nick Grant music.

[Guest 3]

Retweeted that you said it's old government name.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, yeah, he retweeted that with five baseball caps.

[Nick Grant]

I should have put 10.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. So let's talk about it. So why did you, why did you respond with Cat?

[Nick Grant]

Because it was captain.

[Guest 1]

Is it because you don't feel like Jid is. Well, first of all, does it feel.

[Nick Grant]

Like I think he dope. I think he dope. I think, you know, got his people that like him. I just think I'm better.

[Guest 3]

You supposed to feel that way?

[Nick Grant]

No, I just think I'm better.

[Guest 1]

Okay, hold on.

[Nick Grant]

Let me ask you.

[Guest 1]

Do you feel that way?

[Guest 3]

Yeah.

[Nick Grant]

Okay.

[Guest 3]

I love Jit.

[Nick Grant]

Not cause you my man though, but do you know.

[Guest 3]

No, no, not cause of that. No. Jit, I think is a high level lyricist. But yeah, I would take, I would take you versus Jid in, in a battle for sure.

[Nick Grant]

Okay.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. Not because Nick my man, but I, I, I with J. I with J.D.

[Guest 3]

But again, I mean, man, that's your man.

[Guest 1]

No, I mean I with J, though. I with, I like him. I, I think he could rap. He definitely, he definitely one of the.

[Guest 3]

Ones that I listen the. All this Kumbaya. No, I'm on J side. What's up? Yeah. All this Kumbaya. No, no. And I'm gonna actually tell like actual facts. If you've looked at from the now, I'm not sure if there are people that can rap with Jid. The way Jid has showed up in the last five to six years. When it's come to making music, when it's come to guest verses, anytime Jid shows up, everybody stops what they doing. Why do you think you could take Jid?

[Nick Grant]

I'm just better.

[Guest 3]

[Guest 3]

I'm not part of Dreamville.

[Guest 1]

No, no, no. But this is like we said earlier, I like where we at in rap, where if a rapper.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, just competitive.

[Guest 1]

The rapper feels like, y' all better than homie. And then you get in the booth and lay it down. I'm with that. Like we just saw with Joey versus everybody on the West Coast. Everybody start putting out their records the next day. I like that type of shit. Right now with Pusha, you know, just talking about his discrepancies with Travis.

[Nick Grant]

Right, right.

[Guest 1]

I'm just glad N S ain't on IG Live talking and all. Like, I don't want that. If you as a rapper got a problem with another rapper, or if you just feel like another rapper or the rapper is not as dope as you. Yeah. Prove it. Get in the booth. Let's hear some bars. I'm for that. I'm always for the rap.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah. That's what I'm. You know, it's hard for me to, like, do this. Cause people feel like, ah, that n a hating.

[Guest 1]

Oh, they always gonna go say that.

[Nick Grant]

They always gonna say that.

[Guest 3]

Trying to be all right. The objective fan.

[Nick Grant]

But I'm just like, it's sport, nigga. Like any nigga on the court. I'm like, hey, let's hoot. Show me that you better than me. Show me why this motherfucker's so dope. Cause I might not. I might not see it. Or I might be like, oh, he cold. Or, you know, I want to try my. My hand at, you know, shooting a couple shots.

[Guest 3]

Yeah. Why I pick you over Jid is I've been a Jit fan for a long time, but it's always been off music. He raps really well and makes really good songs and knows how to blend into a song while rapping really well, which is probably the hardest thing to do on fucking Earth.

[Guest 1]

Right?

[Guest 3]

I've seen you do that. Plus, I've been a fan of just your freestyle. Destroy everything.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah.

[Guest 3]

For a decade. Jit has done that before, but probably not the same clip as you. But I've also never seen either of you in a battle.

[Nick Grant]

That's what I'm.

[Guest 3]

That's. So now I'm sitting here, like, I don't even know who I would pick, because I've never seen either. Y' all go, better put your money on.

[Nick Grant]

I'm telling you. Lose your money. Because you. You've never seen it publicly.

[Guest 3]

No, I have seen my money get lost publicly.

[Guest 1]

Okay. Yeah, Yeah.

[Guest 3]

I make a bet with E. Or somebody buy somebody. Yeah. I make a bet. Barry, my guy, that's his manager Barry.

[Guest 1]

We could do a bet on Jid and Nick.

[Guest 3]

Yeah. And by the way, I love the Jid and Offset record that's out right now. I'm excited that Jid is about to do this. But, Lissafe, if Jit want to get in the ring the way.

[Nick Grant]

Give me a line real quick.

[Guest 3]

See, I don't like. I don't like that. I don't like that.

[Guest 1]

What? Give me a line. Spit a line from Jit.

[Guest 3]

Don't do that. See, I don't like that.

[Guest 1]

To me. But that's Nick's favorite thing.

[Guest 3]

I don't like that.

[Guest 1]

I'll be talking with this about some niggas. I'm like, yeah, he out here like, yo, give me a line. Let me hear something.

[Guest 3]

You know what's funny? The strategy I use in arguments. I hate when people do it to me.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Guest 3]

Because I say that, of course, knowing like, no, no, don't. See, that's unfair.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, give me any line.

[Guest 3]

He said, I records albums.

[Nick Grant]

Like, give me a. Give me a line. Give me, like, some phenomenal line that. That a said.

[Guest 3]

Do we have voicemails?

[Nick Grant]

All right.

[Guest 1]

All right.

[Nick Grant]

This will tell me what I need to know. Give me some crazy shit that I've said. Either one of y'.

[Guest 1]

All.

[Guest 3]

Voicemail, see?

[Guest 1]

Yeah. Nah, let's keep it. I got a bunch of Nick lines just off this last album. I took it personal. I was listening to it earlier today. You said the line with your dad. My dad fell sick at 40. Maryland, 2000s. Something adding up.

[Nick Grant]

Niggas can't fuck with me.

[Guest 1]

Boy, that was hard. That was hard.

[Nick Grant]

Nah, that was hard.

[Guest 1]

That was hard. I'm not gonna lie. That was a hard borrower.

[Nick Grant]

I appreciate it. Nah, that nigga dope, man. He dope.

[Guest 3]

I know. He just.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, I'm just talking for not.

[Guest 1]

But if you. If you wanna.

[Nick Grant]

I'm not just talking shit. Cause I'm always prepared for whatever. But, nah, he dope. I'm not taking nothing away from him.

[Guest 1]

Is there. Is there any. What does Nick Grant's list of MCs that gotta. That you wanna see, like, I wanna get on the court with him. I gotta see if he's really as good as they say he is.

[Nick Grant]

Yo, I'm a Kendrick fan, bro. I like, you know, when he was talking to me like that, you know, I have the utmost respect for him. But I also. I want to. I don't. I don't want to rap beef with the nigga. I'm just like, let's go back and forth let's go back and forth on the verse.

[Guest 3]

What do you think would be more valuable? Let's say Jid, for example, since we just, you know, joking around with that. Would y' all want to get on a record together?

[Nick Grant]

We did that already.

[Guest 3]

I know, but I'm saying with this type of scenario.

[Guest 1]

But he never put it out. Did it come out? No, See, I don't like that.

[Guest 3]

It's not fair.

[Guest 1]

Why?

[Guest 3]

How to be objective? You Jid some. I mean, with labels. What's going on with his rollout?

[Guest 1]

I'm not saying it's Jizz fault. I'm just saying if. If. If two dope rappers, two dope mcs have a record together and it don't come out. I don't like that it didn't come out.

[Guest 3]

I'm not saying I agree.

[Guest 1]

I'm saying Jit stopped it from coming out.

[Guest 3]

Yeah, but you never know how that. That may not be like a thing Jit did is all I'm saying.

[Guest 1]

I'm not saying he did. I'm just saying I don't like the fact that we haven't heard that. That.

[Guest 3]

Okay, that's the.

[Guest 1]

That. No, I'm nerdy. That's what I'm saying.

[Guest 3]

I don't like that.

[Nick Grant]

I ain't heard it since we did it.

[Guest 3]

Oh, you didn't get a bounce? Oh, yeah, no, I feel the way the song.

[Nick Grant]

The song wasn't even finished.

[Guest 3]

Yeah, I mean, I get that.

[Nick Grant]

But I mean, I mean, he said he was gonna do. Finish it later.

[Guest 3]

Okay.

[Guest 1]

And we never got it.

[Nick Grant]

We never got it.

[Guest 1]

Okay, well, I don't like that. See, I don't like that.

[Guest 3]

Well, Jid notoriously takes his time with everything cool. That's like a very known cool thing. Cool behind the scenes, like, Jit takes his time.

[Guest 1]

I respect that. So I'm just saying, hip hop consumer. And if you say, yo, I'm with you.

[Guest 3]

Finish my question. All right, What? What? Joey and Daylight Ray and all them, you. Would you rather do that or would you rather just get on one record together and see who could.

[Nick Grant]

I want to do that. I want to do what they was doing.

[Guest 3]

Okay.

[DJ Wells]

All right.

[Nick Grant]

I wanna do what they was doing with him. I wanna do what they was doing.

[Guest 3]

What do y' all think is more valuable at this point? Monetarily?

[Nick Grant]

I think. I think what they was doing was. Was better monetarily. Opportunity wise, like. And it's people that's never heard of Rayvon Facts.

[Guest 3]

And I'm not saying he didn't get that RCA deal because of that whole thing. But it definitely helped.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, no, for sure. All that. And he's super smart for, like, engaging in that.

[Guest 1]

Um.

[Nick Grant]

But yeah, like, I think. I think that helped. I think that created, like, oh, this is a new face. This is a new. I think it even helped Daylight.

[Guest 1]

Mm.

[Nick Grant]

You know what I'm saying?

[Guest 3]

This is gonna hurt me to say it. Cause I'm here to be objective. I think the only person that lost some allure in that entire thing was Daylight.

[Nick Grant]

No, he definitely lost. He lost for sure. But as far as, like, we had.

[Guest 3]

Daylight, Alien, you're up here. That was the first time that's how I felt like, Daylight was human.

[Nick Grant]

I think it translates different on beats.

[Guest 3]

But I've heard Daylight rap. We said before the whole thing popped off, I always felt Surf and Daylight were the two best battle rappers on beats. Like, I've heard Daylight smoke some shit.

[Nick Grant]

Nah, for sure.

[Guest 3]

I was shocked that it went that way.

[Nick Grant]

I wasn't okay. I think it's just. I think when you battling, it's just not cerebral. I just think it's like, all style and, you know, I think a nigga on the corner cracking jokes has more experience in a battle than somebody who's super cerebral.

[Guest 3]

Why do you think it's different now with 50 doing how to rob in. What was that? 99, 2000 to now, if you just wanted to. Actually, tonight, if you just went to studio and dish Jid with no real issue at all, just for the sport of it, you'd be looked at as a clout chaser for sure. What happened in rap where that was the case? Cause everyone used to just shoot at each other with no reason to shoot at each other.

[Nick Grant]

Everybody want a participation trophy. You know what I'm saying? Everybody just wanna, you know, when did that stop? That's the only reason.

[Guest 3]

Why can't you just shoot at people?

[Nick Grant]

Well, I've been holding back from a lot of people. Cause I'm like, I don't wanna be looked at as that guy. I still gotta, like.

[Guest 3]

They'd be like, yo, he's single out with Austin.

[Nick Grant]

You know what I'm saying? Like, and I'm not gonna let this person, you know, highlight what I'm doing. You know what I'm saying? It just gotta make sense. It gotta make sense. And that's not just him. That's anybody.

[Guest 3]

I mean, even with everything now, we get so much information, I don't think it'd be weird if two rappers agreed. Cause we know what the Joey thing was behind the scenes for the most part. Everyone knew what type of time it was. It's not gonna get violent. Like, we really just doing this for sport.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah.

[Guest 3]

Why couldn't you and Jid again, for example, tell the world, like, yeah, no, we cool. We just decided today we just want to rap against each other. Like, why can't that happen? Why would the public look at that weird, like, yo, y' all doing weird shit? Nah, we just both think we could rap. And we decided today that we was gonna rap.

[Guest 1]

Well, because now it's. It's, you know, the beef or battle is looked at like a rollout or like a.

[Guest 3]

A clout. Where have y' all been?

[Guest 1]

No, no, no, listen. I told you, if we go back to the first hip hop record, it might be a diss record.

[Guest 3]

Did you guys just show up here?

[Guest 1]

The first hip hop record. The MC might be dissing somebody on that, she might be dissing another MC on it.

[Nick Grant]

So that's.

[Guest 1]

That's the way. That's the foundation of this thing.

[Nick Grant]

That's what it is.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Guest 3]

What's wrong with that?

[Guest 1]

No, there's nothing wrong.

[Nick Grant]

It's just this new generation of insecurities.

[Guest 1]

Insecurities.

[Nick Grant]

You know what I'm saying? Like, people, like, the ego was like, it's different now. It's before social media. It's not constantly in your face if a nigga win. You know what I'm saying? They posting that for hours. You can't even do the thing that you addicted to. You can't even look at this shit. Like, I'm caught up. Like, this is how they viewing me. And you think it's the end of the world just as a rapper, you think it's the end of the world when you lose. You know what I'm saying? And then you got somebody telling you every second that you lost.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, it's tough. Yeah.

[Guest 3]

I mean, but I've only seen that happen twice in my entire life. Drake and Kendrick, ja ruling 50 Cent. And by the way, all four of those people are doing completely fine.

[Guest 1]

And guess what? All four of those.

[Nick Grant]

But in the moment, it ain't cool.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, I get it.

[Guest 3]

I'm just saying everybody's fine.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, man, it depends on what you fight for.

[Guest 3]

I mean, the John 50 shit is. I'm just talking about the rap shit.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Nick Grant]

Nah, for sure, 100%. I'm with you.

[Guest 3]

Ja is doing fine. If you knew what Ja got for a fee to do a show, yeah. You'd be like, wait, he got killed.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, right? He lost. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

[Guest 3]

His career was over.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, that's hilarious. Yeah, but, nah.

[Guest 3]

And you see, I mean, shit, I thought Ray lost that to Joey Badass again. I think Ray put his hours in the RCA deal tde relationship. I don't think it's just the battle, but look what came out of it. Ray ain't fucking lose.

[Nick Grant]

Right, right. Right now. For sure. For sure.

[Guest 3]

And even with Jid, like, again, we're just using this as an example. He putting his single out with an offset. Let's say he lost. Jid wouldn't fucking lose.

[Guest 1]

He's Jid.

[Guest 3]

He makes great music. I think that would just bring more hype around what was going on. No one is doubting Jid's penny. No, like, I'm not talking about Nick versus. I'm not even gonna say a rapper, but like, that, you know, somebody that could rap. You're not gonna lose.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, no, I think it's. It's a lot. It depends on how you're looking at it.

[Guest 3]

You gonna lose, but you're not gonna lose.

[Nick Grant]

I'm kicking ass.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. As an mc, you know, like, if he got me, and I bet he kicked my ass. But you're saying.

[Nick Grant]

And that hurts. That's a whole nother thing. Like, as artists that people at least me, like, yeah, I had a homeboy, man, when I was growing up. This motherfucker used to kick my ass, like, every day. Come on, let's battle. Let's battle. Let's battle. I think the last time we battled, like, we would always go back and forth, but he was, like, ready every day. I'm like, man, we gotta battle again today. He kept me on my shit.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Nick Grant]

Last time we battled, I got him, but he was the guy that made me, like, super sharp, like, young. And I just think, man, we lost that, man. That's why I be telling you it's just rap, bro.

[Guest 3]

Well, can I, can I See how deep the lyricism. Rabbit hole goes down. I came up with a segment while you guys were on your way.

[Nick Grant]

Hey, man, don't make me feel like I don't know.

[Guest 1]

No, it's gonna be great.

[Guest 3]

Me, Me and Peach were kicking it, trying to. Trying to think of a segment. I'm. I'm not gonna say that Chad. GBT helped us out, but maybe they did. So we came up with this idea of bars versus Yelp.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, Bars versus Yelp.

[Guest 3]

Can you decide if this is a rap bar or if this is a Yelp review is how our segment is going to go here.

[Nick Grant]

Okay, I might get all of these.

[Guest 1]

Wrong because this is going to be funny, though. Because if I feel like a bar is a. Is a Yelp review, that's fucking hilarious.

[Guest 3]

So in our first segment of bars versus Yelp featuring Nick Grant, we're gonna start at number one. You guys can look at the screen. I paid $80 for brunch and still left hungry.

[Guest 1]

I hope a rapper say that.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I hope so.

[Guest 3]

You guys are gonna get yourself in some beef.

[Guest 1]

Yo, yo, look, look, look, look. You gonna tell us the answers here. That's why I said I hope you.

[Nick Grant]

Gotta tell us the rapper, though.

[Guest 3]

You guys have to guess. Is this a rapper or Yelp review?

[Nick Grant]

No, I'm saying after. If it's. If we wrong and the rapper said it.

[Guest 1]

Oh.

[Guest 3]

I'm going to tell you guys.

[Nick Grant]

Okay, okay, okay.

[Guest 3]

I'm going to tell you the city and star review. No, we didn't make any of this up. These are real Yelp reviews and real rap.

[Guest 1]

I'm going to say. I'm going to say Yelp. I'm going to say I paid 80 for brunch and still left hungry. I'm going to say that's Yelp.

[Guest 3]

That is a bar. Larry. June Breakfast in Monaco.

[Guest 1]

Larry said that Lifestyle rap.

[Nick Grant]

I get it, I get it. I get it. I with him, though.

[Guest 1]

I with Larry. I should have known that.

[Nick Grant]

I with him.

[Guest 3]

The wings were mid, but the eye contact was rare.

[Guest 1]

Now that better not be. Yo, they better not be talking like that. I'm gonna say that's a bar.

[Nick Grant]

Wings were mid.

[Guest 1]

The wings were mid, but the eye contact was.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, that might be a bar.

[Guest 1]

They run like a bar. That sounds like.

[Guest 3]

It sounds like a setup to something else. Yeah, you are wrong. That is a real four star review to a dive bar in Philadelphia, Pennsylv.

[Guest 1]

What?

[Guest 3]

The only reason I'm not putting the restaurants is because we did that last time. Yeah. So I'm I'm. I'm. These are real, I promise. I'm just gonna put the rest were mid. But the eye contact was rare.

[Guest 1]

Whoever said that need to be a rapper.

[Nick Grant]

Whoever said that's what I'm saying.

[Guest 1]

He got some shit to get off with that. Yeah, I. With that. The wings were made, but the eye contact was red.

[Guest 3]

All right, number three.

[Guest 1]

That's hard.

[Guest 3]

The lobster was unseasoned, but the breakup was well done.

[Guest 1]

The lobster was under seasoned. But the breakup was well, fam. If this is a Yelp review, there's some niggas out here that's dope spitting, right? The lobster was under seasoned for that album. Breakup was well done.

[Nick Grant]

Hey, that might be. Yeah, that's. I'm going. Yo, I'm going.

[Guest 3]

Bar Nick is in fact correct. This is three star review on a very famous seafood spot in Miami.

[Nick Grant]

You know, I got it, though. Cause it sound like the last thing.

[Guest 1]

It's the same nigga. He go. The lobster with was under season, but the breakup was.

[Nick Grant]

Well, sound like the last.

[Guest 3]

All right, next one. The bill came, and so did the silence.

[Guest 1]

The bill came and so did the silence. That's a bar.

[Nick Grant]

Oh, yeah, that's a bar.

[Guest 1]

The bill came with that silence. That's a bar.

[Guest 3]

That's our guy. Idk. Crying church.

[Nick Grant]

Okay, okay.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Nick Grant]

Cause I. Yeah, I heard a Say something like that. Like, yeah, get on the phone with a bill coming.

[Guest 1]

That's a bar. That's a bar.

[Guest 3]

Next one. The burger fell apart in my hands just like the last relationship.

[Guest 1]

It's the same.

[Guest 3]

Yeah, this was a two star review in Portland, Oregon.

[Guest 1]

The burger fell apart in my hands just like my last relationship.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, that's yo. Yeah, that's yo. Cause a better not be rapping about.

[Guest 1]

That's a fact. Yeah, no, that's yo. That's definitely yo.

[Guest 3]

We gonna stay on theme with this next one. She talked over the waiter, then over my heart.

[Guest 1]

That's a bar. That's a bar. That's a bar. That don't even. Who you see. Who are you talking?

[Guest 3]

We already saw, though, at Yelp reviews, they be leaving, like, real dangers.

[Guest 1]

This is a bar.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah. Cause this ain't even about the restaurant.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, this is about a real relationship. Yeah, this is a bar.

[Guest 3]

That's Mick Jenkins Martyrs.

[Nick Grant]

Okay.

[Guest 1]

Absolutely. That's a bar.

[Guest 3]

The table next to us got their food faster, and their relationship seemed healthier.

[Nick Grant]

Oh, that's you.

[Guest 1]

That's yo.

[Guest 3]

Oh, I thought that was a hard bar.

[Guest 1]

It could be a bar.

[Guest 3]

That's a brunch. Spot in the Lower east side.

[Guest 1]

Are you saving these restaurants? Because we gotta go. Yeah, we gotta go to these spots. This is crazy. You gotta go to these spots, Josh.

[Guest 3]

Next one. I got a room at the top. The view was mid. The steak was cold, and the waiter had an attitude.

[Guest 1]

That's yo. I got a room at the top. The view mid, the steak was cold. And the way they had an ad. So I'm gonna say that's Yelp, yo.

[Guest 3]

That's Freddie Gibbs real.

[Guest 1]

What? I got a room at the top. The viewers did. Wait, I had an accident.

[Guest 3]

I had to, like, take out bars so you guys couldn't realize everything rhymed. So. Yeah, you can't see the scheme. Okay, but yeah, no, that's.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, that's what I'm like.

[Nick Grant]

That don't even rhyme like that.

[Guest 3]

No, it does rhyme when you.

[Guest 1]

All right, I want to know what Freddy said right after that.

[Guest 3]

Yeah, we can pull up the real lyrics.

[Guest 1]

See, I want to know what Freddie said right after that.

[Guest 3]

All right, next one. Too much pepper on the shrimp, not enough so on the gumbo.

[Nick Grant]

Oh, that's yo.

[Guest 1]

Too much pepper on the shrimp, not enough soul in the gumbo. Damn. I want to say that's a bar. Too much pepper on the shrimp, not enough soul in the gumbo. That's yo. I'm gonna say, yo, if you thought.

[Guest 3]

It was a bar, who'd you think it would be?

[Guest 1]

Too much pepper on the shrimp, not enough gumbo. That might be two chains.

[Guest 3]

That'd be a great guess. This is, in fact, not a Yelp review. This is a bar. This is Big Crip, my sub, part two.

[Guest 1]

Oh, shit.

[Guest 3]

That's a Big Crip bar all day.

[Guest 1]

Shit. See, I was gonna. I thought that sounded like a two chains bar. Too much pepper on the shrimp, not enough solar in the gumbo.

[Guest 3]

And the inflection. Too much. Yeah, he was.

[Nick Grant]

Too much pepper on the shrimp.

[Guest 3]

On the shrimp.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Guest 3]

Not enough in the gumbo. All right, next one, the chicken pink, but I ain't complain. She cooked it with love. I took it with the paint.

[Nick Grant]

Oh, that's a bar.

[Guest 3]

Or this is to throw y' all off.

[Nick Grant]

Nah, that's a bar.

[Guest 1]

All right, see, but, Rory, that's. See, now, hold on. That's why this is whack good. Because if you adding sauce to it and it's a Yelp review and you making it feel like a bar, that's fucked up.

[Guest 3]

We didn't set the rules for this. This is our first time doing this segment.

[Guest 1]

The Chicken Pink is funny, though. The chicken Pink. But I ain't.

[Guest 3]

You've been there before, and I'm trying.

[Guest 1]

To hear it, like, in a rapper's voice. The chicken Pink. But I ain't complaining. I said, yo, I took it with pain. Let me know what you say. Bar.

No, no, no. I didn't edit anything. I just. I took out, like, the schem. Memes on certain. Yeah, but no, I mean that. I would write that in a heartbeat. You've never felt that way?

[Nick Grant]

No, for sure.

[Guest 3]

But at the same time, you realize people on Yelp now are, like, doing this type of right. They're putting reviews, like, in bar form.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, that's crazy.

[Guest 3]

All right, next one. The room smelled like broken dreams and champagne.

[Nick Grant]

Oh, that's a. That's a bar.

[Guest 1]

The room smelled like broke.

[Guest 3]

I have been to restaurants.

[Nick Grant]

Hold on, let me take that back.

[Guest 1]

Nah. Cause this could be a hotel review.

[Nick Grant]

That could be a club review, too.

[Guest 1]

The room smelled like. No, it's the room. So that's like a hotel room.

[Nick Grant]

Smelled like broken dreams that sell wings.

[Guest 3]

Private room at a restaurant.

[Guest 1]

Okay. The room smelled like broken dreams of champagne. I'm gonna say that's a bar.

[Nick Grant]

I'm gonna say that's a Yelp review.

[Guest 3]

Mo is correct. That's Freddie Gibbs. Scottie Bing.

[Guest 1]

There you go. The room smelled like broken dreams of champagne.

[Guest 3]

All right, the next one is a little easy, but it's for fun. Ordered surf and turf with a tech in my lap.

[Guest 1]

That better be a bar. If not, they coming to. Might be serving turf with a tech in my lap.

[Nick Grant]

That might Be the hardest one.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Nick Grant]

I don't know which one. That's a bar though.

[Guest 3]

That is in fact a Yelp review left by Conway the machine.

[Guest 1]

Get the out of here.

[Guest 3]

N. It's Conway's first three.

[Guest 3]

No, but it's funny, the Yelp reviews that I left off, this is a lot of men bragging about what they did for their bitches in the restaurant. Yeah, yeah.

[Nick Grant]

That's crazy.

[Guest 3]

Like all the shit I was like, it wouldn't even be fun. Cause it sounds like straight up bars. That shit sound like hov lines in some of these Yelp reviews.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. Nah, I need these in a book though. For the coffee table though, though.

[Guest 3]

All right, next one. Josh. I ordered two plates more for the duck fat than the taste.

[Guest 1]

I ordered two plates.

[Guest 3]

Just cuz it rhyme don't mean.

[Guest 1]

[Nick Grant]

It could be anything.

[Guest 1]

Just cuz you don't understand him. Don't mean that he nice.

[Guest 3]

[Guest 1]

I order two plates more for the duck fat than the taste. I'm gonna say that's a bar, man.

[Guest 3]

That's Rick Ross triple platinum.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, that. Order the group and tell the chef I'm serious.

[Guest 3]

All right, we. We get into to the last five now. I feel like we. We should do head to head pause.

[Guest 1]

Okay.

[Guest 3]

Because you guys have Nick smoked you in the first half, but you've definitely redeemed yourself.

[Guest 1]

All right.

[Guest 3]

Oh, and it's easy for from all now. I ate some well done seared scallops that were to die for.

[Guest 1]

That's. That's Drake, right?

[Guest 3]

100. Yeah. I knew that was the easiest one.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, yeah, I won.

[Guest 3]

That don't count. Yeah.

[Guest 1]

Scallops. Anytime you hear said scallops. That's great.

[Guest 3]

That Were to die for.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. Drake is the only thing rap about seared scallops. Another rapper ain't. Get that off.

[Guest 3]

All right, next one. Josh, the chicken was dry, but not as dry as her personality.

[Guest 1]

That's yo. That's definitely yo.

[Guest 3]

Yeah. You couldn't put a bar together that would sound that good?

[Guest 1]

No, but I could tell that that was Yelp, though.

[Guest 3]

Oh, damn. I feel bad now. I thought that would be one that would stump y'.

[Guest 1]

All.

[Guest 3]

Nah, that is a real three star review from a Harlem soul food restaurant that we both know.

[Guest 1]

Amy Ruse. Gotta be. No.

[Guest 3]

What?

[Guest 1]

Not Melba's Melbas?

[Guest 3]

No, you guessed it correctly the first time.

[Guest 1]

Oh, okay.

[Guest 3]

The vibe was off, but the lighting was amazing.

[Guest 1]

That's yo.

[Nick Grant]

Yo.

[Guest 1]

That's yo.

[Guest 3]

That's Tyler, the creator best interest.

[Nick Grant]

Oh, right. Rapping about the lighting.

[Guest 1]

The lighting was amazing. Okay.

[Guest 3]

Flux lights. Oh. All that for salad in a salad ride home.

[Guest 1]

All that for salad and a silent.

[Guest 3]

Ride home by the way, I feel like this would. If ma rap, this would be his bar.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, for sure. All that for a salad and a silent ride home. Nah, that's a. I'm gonna say this is Yelp.

[Nick Grant]

That's some life experience shit. Facts was in the car. Quiety paid for the meal.

[Guest 1]

Give me some coffee.

[Guest 3]

You taking a bar?

[Nick Grant]

That's a bar.

[Guest 3]

Okay. This is from a West Hollywood spy that only sells lunch. Why this review was so funny to me was he spent a whole silent ride home with the sun out. Like, I've had bad dinner dates where like, shit ain't go well. Like. Like, yo, I drop you off in the Uber, two stops type thing. Yeah, dog, you.

[Guest 1]

It's 2pm we was coming from Earth Cafe.

[Guest 3]

Yo, for Earth Cafe, it's just like Earth Cafe. I'm still like, yo, you left a review in the Uber with a silent chick when the sun was out. All right, we get. We get into the bottom here. I don't even like oysters. But she wanted the experience.

[Guest 1]

That's a bar.

[Nick Grant]

Hold on, hold on.

[Guest 1]

That's a bar. That's a bar. That's definitely a bar.

[Nick Grant]

Follow this.

[Guest 1]

I don't even like oysters. Yeah, that's a bar.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah, that's a bar.

[Guest 3]

This is a one star.

[Guest 1]

Oh, my Yelp review.

[Guest 3]

And there was an explanation. He got dumped mid appetizer while she was eating the oysters.

[Guest 1]

Oh, that's crazy.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah. Damn. Wow.

[Guest 3]

Last one we close out.

[Nick Grant]

Should have got the lobster.

[Guest 1]

Should have ordered the lobster.

[Guest 3]

The cook got my order wrong, but the blunt made it that's a bar, bro.

[Guest 1]

That's a bar.

[Guest 3]

And you know who that's from? You already guessed who it was.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, that's gun.

[Guest 3]

Nah, that's not. That's currency.

[Guest 1]

Oh, that's. Oh, the cook got my order wrong. But the blunt. Yeah, but the blunt made it better. That's definitely currency. Shout out to Spitter, man. All right. That was cool, man. I like that. I like that.

[Guest 3]

Yeah, we. We did a little too much, but.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. No, I like it, though.

[Guest 3]

Yeah. I think there's a new segment we can start to add.

[Guest 1]

It's cool. It's cool that we got a lot of them.

[Nick Grant]

I lost the last one. Yeah, he me up with that one.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, the cook got my order on, but the blunt made it better. All right.

[Guest 3]

Speaking of true Americans, true men in America, Nelly tried to tell his girl, I don't change diapers. I'm a man. I'm a true American. That's. That's a woman's job. Get back in the kitchen and change them diapers. Nelly's leading the way for American men.

[Guest 1]

Don't change the diapers in the kitchen.

[Guest 3]

I wouldn't even know because I don't even go in the kitchen. I don't even know what goes on in there. Is that what y' all do?

[Host]

Is that what y' all do?

[Guest 3]

I would never even step foot in the kitchen mall. Did you see this, my man?

[Guest 1]

I saw the clip.

[Host]

How do you feel? Well, for people who haven't seen the clip, it's basically Nelly and Ashanti on their new show. Nelly is saying that he's not changing diapers. Like, once the baby is old enough to walk, talk, and go to the bathroom, then he's gonna hang with him and the gu guys. But until then, it's basically an Ashanti. Ashanti was complaining that he sleeps through the baby waking up at night, and she's getting him up. And the Internet is currently in an uproar. They're saying, this is why you don't spin the block. Because look how act Mall.

[Guest 1]

The Internet is doing exactly what Nelly and Ashanti wanted them to do. If people think that Nelly does not take care of his baby, doesn't change diapers, it's like, what are we talking about? Like, he's. He's. That's just him talking. I don't think any of that is real. This. It's a show.

[Guest 3]

I'm jealous that he got that off.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. I mean, you know, but I get it. You think Nelly doesn't take. Change diapers.

[Host]

I believe That a lot of reality TV is scripted. I don't think that that's scripted. He's not the only person to have said that. He's not the only man to have ever said that or felt that way.

[Guest 1]

No, I understand that. But I'm saying, do you think, Nelly, as many kids as he has, you don't think he's ever changed the diaper?

[Host]

I'm not saying I don't think he's ever changed a diaper. What I do. I. I believe in. What him and Shanti are saying is that he let's her get up in the middle of the night and that he ain't really changing. Like, he's not the primary parent. I fully believe that Ashanti is the primary parent right now.

[Guest 1]

Okay.

[Host]

I'm just going off.

[Guest 3]

Well, I mean, with newborns in general, the woman is that. But you can still change a diaper and put her back to sleep. But I found out last Christmas, my mom and dad. My mom said my dad never changed one fucking diaper. And I looked at him, I was like, how you got that off?

[Guest 1]

Your dad was a different type of man. That was a real American right there. That was a real American man.

[Guest 3]

And I think it's. It's great that our generation has, like, a real relationship with our kids and. And men should be also doing that, care providers and all that. But I'm jealous, man. I looked at my dad.

[Guest 1]

How the.

[Guest 3]

You did that? Yeah, what you say?

[Guest 1]

He ain't give you that gym. He ain't give you that gym right there.

[Guest 3]

How do I. How do I. Amara has in my face before. Like, I remember there was a time when you could just not change your child's diaper.

[Guest 1]

Didn't even see the diapers. Yeah.

[Guest 3]

Yo, that generation, they. They had it. They ruined the economy, but, boy, did they have households figured out. They figured out we can't buy a house anymore.

[Guest 1]

The home was figured out.

[Guest 3]

Listen, man, them. Them boomers, they figured it out.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Guest 3]

But no, that's just some sick to get off on tv.

[Guest 1]

But, baby, do you seem a little bothered by that?

[Host]

Why would I. Hold on, baby. I ain't bothered.

[Guest 1]

No, not you. But like, per. But you. Like. Like when you hear men say, like, yeah, I do.

[Host]

I do. Because I. Because what's happening is it's trying to be folded into, like. Like the housewife role. Like, that's. That. They're folding that into the housewife role. It's like. No, like, housewife is like, cooking and cleaning, like, taking care of the kids. Like, that's. We splitting that baby. Like, that's.

[Guest 3]

You are the main provider financially. But I know how much those gyro and Ashanti tickets cost. She ain't a housewife.

[Host]

Like, yeah, yeah.

[Guest 3]

Even if she was, she's. She's bringing home bread. Bread.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Host]

Even if. Even if she wasn't bringing home bread. Okay, yes, the house is clean. Like, all of that that comes with being a housewife. But these is your kids. Like, what? I will speak. To be fair, we've had this conversation where if one person is working in the household and the other isn't, we should probably let the person who's working get the sleep. That, yeah, makes sense. But you can help. You can. You can change your diaper. You can change your child's diaper.

[Guest 3]

And even, like, when Kia would say the same thing, like, you got to work in the morning, like, you can't sleep. Like when Amara was crying or anything like that, of like, hey, it's your turn, your turn type thing. Even when Key was like, go rest. Like, you're not really catching Z's when your baby is crying. Like, just go.

[Guest 1]

Like, your mind.

[Guest 3]

Like, nobody just be knocked out. Like, at that time.

[Guest 1]

So you just didn't get up out the bed.

[Guest 3]

That's where I'm thinking it's more performative of that entire scene. But I don't know. I. I was having this conversation with Kaz right when Amara was born, because, I mean, Cass has two daughters now, but at that time, he only had one. I was terrified of changing a diaper. Not because of, like, but like, I just, you know, only child. I didn't change, like, my siblings diapers or anything. That's the easiest on earth. I was laughing with Kaz on day two. I was like, this is the hype.

[Nick Grant]

Yeah.

[Guest 3]

Changes the diaper is the easiest. Even when Amar is kicking me in the face. It's really not that hard.

[Guest 1]

No. Yeah, it's not. That's why I think that Sean. I mean, Nelly was just.

[Host]

Just talking, putting that on Shine, Paul.

[Guest 1]

No, I was saying Ashanti. Ashanti, Yeah. I think Nelly was just talking. I think that he just said that for the cameras. Like, you know, to sound like, I ain't doing that. I ain't. I'm not changing no diapers. Like, I think. I don't. I don't know Nelly personally, but I'm guessing that was just for. For the camera then.

[Host]

I've seen some rumor on Twitter. This is, like, really messy. I see some rumor on Twitter where they're like, yeah, that's the reason why they broke up, because he owed Ashanti a million dollars and never gave it to her. And she went back to him, and.

[Guest 3]

I was like, whoa, hold on.

[Host]

Now. Changing diapers is one thing. Borrowing a million dollars from me and not giving it back is absolutely crazy.

[Guest 1]

They're saying Nelly borrowed a million dollars.

[Host]

Back in the day there. Said that's the rumor of why they broke up. I won't confirm or deny that. It was on media takeout Out.

[Guest 1]

All right, don't bring no media takeout in here, please, man.

[Host]

Hold on. It was a lot of media takeout in World Star Hip Hop. That was real.

[Guest 3]

We were talking about World Star Hip Hop in the other episode we forgot to bring up. At one point, Media takeout was the TMZ of everything.

[Host]

Thank you.

[Guest 1]

Oh, yeah.

[Guest 3]

They broke the Chris and Rihanna feel. Like, at one point, that was a source you trusted.

[Host]

So back in the day, remember the.

[Guest 3]

Main page, the big one?

[Host]

Yeah.

[Guest 1]

He was like, yeah, try not to end up on media takeup.

[Guest 3]

Okay, but. But, like, over time.

[Host]

Yeah, over time.

[Guest 3]

Or did Nelly straight up? Cuz, first of all, they said it.

[Host]

Was over 500,000 if Nelly. All right, so we rounded to a million.

[Guest 3]

Which. Which? Camera. Camera two, Nelly. I apologize. I was not familiar with your game.

[Nick Grant]

Stop.

[Guest 3]

Not only did you ask for a million dollars from your girl at the time, you then didn't pay it back. Then you broke up with her, took a break, went and did your thing, had some kids, got her right back, didn't pay. He didn't even pay the vig. And then told her, go change that diaper. Nelly might be the illest of all.

[Guest 1]

Time if that's true, if all of that adds up. Yeah.

[Guest 3]

Imagine telling somebody that you owe a million dollars to. To go change that diaper.

[Guest 1]

I mean, you the goat. Ashanti might, you know, she love him. Listen, that's. That's her husband. It's a man.

[Guest 3]

I've never loved somebody that much.

[Host]

If I let you spin the block. If I let you spin the block and get me pregnant, you changing every diaper. That's. We putting that in the like, spin the block, like, agreement in order to come back and revisit this. That was once dead to you like a graveyard, you have to change the diapers. We're putting that in the contract.

[Guest 3]

Before he beats again.

[Host]

Yeah, before you beat. Just in case I get pregnant. But at that point, if you spinning trap them. If you spinning the block at that age, you know, we about to have a baby at that age, you spinning a block.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. It's like, what we doing?

[Host]

What we doing? Come on, man.

[Guest 1]

Come on, man. We like it. This is what it is at this point. It's us.

[Host]

It's us.

[Guest 1]

Like, we. We too old for this. Like, we ain't got another one of these left in us. Like, in a minute. If we. If we keep playing this game, we gonna find ourselves by ourselves. Like. Like, we too old to be out here trying to. Just real talk.

[Guest 3]

You don't think it's funny to have a pregnancy pack and you already got kids?

[Guest 1]

Absolutely.

[Guest 3]

That's insane.

[Guest 1]

Absolutely. Absolutely.

[Guest 3]

We've talked about the pregnancy pack. Like, I've had that back in the day with girls of like, yo, if we ever get to, like, 35 or whatever and we both single like it.

[Guest 1]

Let'S just do it.

[Guest 3]

But having a bunch of kids and then spinning the block for a pregnancy pack?

[Host]

Yeah.

[Guest 3]

You got a pack already? Yeah.

[Host]

I ain't had the one I wanted, though.

[Guest 1]

They.

[Host]

They want the one I wanted. Like, when you have a. Like when have a baby and you congratulate them, they be like, thank you. It was supposed to be ours.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. Get that off.

[Host]

Get that off. I know Rory got that off at least once.

[Guest 1]

He definitely did. He definitely did.

[Guest 3]

I would a thousand percent take the allegations of me pissing on women before I allow y' all to make this true.

[Guest 1]

What, that you. That you never told a girl that?

[Guest 3]

That.

[Guest 1]

That should be our kid?

[Guest 3]

No.

[Guest 1]

All right.

[Host]

I ain't rolling.

[Guest 1]

All right, man. It's the Fourth of July. We ain't got to lie. It's the Fourth of July, but you ain't got to lie.

[Guest 3]

We the people was a lie. You lying.

[Host]

It's the 4th of July.

[Guest 3]

Every man is created equally. Whatever the. They was lying in the whole thing.

[Host]

Like, you.

[Guest 1]

Like you just like you.

[Guest 3]

So you. So y. Like, y' all really think that I saw a girl have a baby and I replied with. With. That should have been ours.

[Host]

Nah, I really saw.

[Guest 1]

No, no. This is what Rory does. He paints a very specific thing. I'm not saying that's how you said it, but you've definitely had a girl that you liked or you was in love with, and y' all broke up, and she went and had a baby, and somewhere around the line, the only.

[Guest 3]

Girl I've loved that has had a baby is Kia. All my exes don't have, like, exes that I was in love with do not have.

[Host]

That's not what I'm saying.

[Guest 3]

There's bitches I That I was like. Like, damn, she pregnant now. But, like, that's not what I'm saying now. I can't beat.

[Guest 1]

Okay.

[Host]

I'm saying A done slid in your DMs and said all congratulations. I meant to tell you congratulations on the baby, and you said, thank you. We were supposed to have one.

[Guest 3]

All right.

[Guest 1]

Oh, okay.

[Guest 3]

Okay, okay. That was okay.

[Guest 1]

Baby D just did something.

[Guest 3]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Guest 1]

100%. You did that. I don't want to hear that.

[Guest 3]

Do. I thought the first one was egregious. That's the nastiest thing I've ever heard in my life.

[Guest 1]

You one of the nastiest.

[Guest 3]

You said it.

[Guest 1]

While I.

[Host]

Not within the first year of her life, but once you got more comfortable being a dad, round year, too, I. I wouldn't be surprised if you got it off. That's all I'm saying.

[Guest 3]

So you think I would look at my child, who I love, and go, nah, it should be. You should be a different kid.

[Host]

See what he doing right now?

[Guest 1]

Don't change it. Don't change it.

[Guest 3]

Every man of every color is equal.

[Guest 1]

Should have been hers. Saying that the child that you had should have been with her. Not. No, specifically, Amara should be with her.

[Host]

Yeah, like, we should have had a child.

[Guest 1]

We should have had a child.

[Host]

You were supposed to be my first baby mother. Like, nobody sitting up there saying, oh, my God, I regret. I regret having a baby with ke.

[Guest 1]

No, don't put that on us.

[Host]

We ain't say that. We ain't say that.

[Guest 3]

Y' all think I was running around saying, yes, we do. I hope he was my first. Like, you think my goals was my first baby mother.

[Guest 1]

We never said that.

[Guest 3]

That's what she just said.

[Guest 1]

Okay, listen to what I'm saying. You definitely have had someone you have dated before respond to a post or something about your child, a picture of Amara. Whatever. Whatever conversation goes on, and you've definitely insinuated that. Damn, I thought that would have been us.

[Guest 3]

No, not even, like, a tiny bit. And on top of the only place. The only place that I have posted Amara outside of her. Her playing on her DJ thing, which you can't even see her face is in my close friends. Now, let me stop. I am not suggesting that there's not women in my close friends that I have not slept with.

[Guest 1]

Oh, I'm about to say I'm here.

[Guest 3]

To tell the truth, but not. Not one of them has ever replied on some type of like. Of that should have been our like. Come on. 1. There'd be that would never even happen.

[Guest 1]

I don't believe that.

[Host]

No, let him listen. I ain't gonna fight him.

[Guest 1]

[Host]

He said what?

[Guest 1]

He said.

[Host]

Stop kicking me. He said what?

[Guest 1]

He said, I don't want to fight. That's the thing with me, baby. I like to fight. I'm fighting now. You lying. You lying. You look at me in my eyes and you lying.

[Guest 3]

The only girl I could think of that would have the audacity to say that doesn't want kids. There's one girl I could think that would say some like that because I know her personality.

[Guest 1]

Keep taking us to a dead end, yo. Lying reverse out of the dead end.

[Host]

I ain't even. I ain't even.

[Guest 1]

I ain't.

[Host]

Okay, you. Have you told a girl yet that you. That Amar need a sister yet?

[Guest 3]

No, but I will get that off one day.

[Guest 1]

M. He trying to give us a little bone right there. He like, nah, but I will get that. You got it off already, man.

[Host]

Everything was fun before.

[Guest 1]

I'm not. I'm not.

[Guest 3]

It was fun before.

[Guest 1]

I'm just saying. Baby D went crazy. She. She. I had nothing to do with that. That wasn't my energy. That's not what I was.

[Guest 3]

You can talk about my child. You talk about my child's life, you can talk about mothers, all that, but throwing five inches on me is crazy.

[Guest 1]

I wasn't knowing that energy. Like, look, look, go ahead.

[Host]

I'm not saying that you was all the way in.

[Guest 3]

No, no, no, no. You was just.

[Host]

You was just five, then it was a couple inches left. My do. My guy. I wasn't.

Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.

[Guest 1]

Now.

[Guest 3]

I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills. But it turns out that's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a [e-mail] Switch upfront payment.

[Guest 2]

Of $45 for 3 month plan equivalent to 15 per month required New customer offer for first 3 months only Speed slow after 35 gigabytes of networks Busy taxes and fees extra See mint mobile.com.
