Rory and Mal engage in a spirited debate about what constitutes a number one hit, using Drake's "First Person Shooter" as a case study.

• Rory expresses surprise over the song's chart success, stating, "I don't think it's one of those... I don't think this will be the one to pass Michael Jackson" ([06:20]).

• Mal counters, "I think it's a catchy record. It was a school record. I don't know if this will be the one, though" ([06:12]).

They explore the challenges artists face in achieving top chart positions, especially in genres like hip-hop, highlighting the complexity behind seemingly straightforward successes.

• Rory highlights the complexity of the situation, saying, "If she didn't sign the paperwork, then obviously she's not owing anything because it's not on paper" ([16:12]).

• Mal empathizes with Nicki's perspective, noting, "I can see how Nikki's brain could work that way... I think that's really where it's at" ([17:19]).

They debate the validity of Nicki’s claims, the potential impact on her career, and the broader implications for artist-label relationships in the music industry.

5. SeaWorld’s Incorporation of Hip-Hop Culture

Rory and Mal express concern over SeaWorld’s decision to incorporate hip-hop artists into their entertainment lineup, critiquing it as a superficial marketing strategy that overlooks animal welfare.

• Rory passionately argues, "They're using us, using our culture... Meanwhile, these animals are depressed, anxious" ([35:03]).

• Mal adds, "We can't support SeaWorld. Listen, you support SeaWorld" ([38:46]).

[Host 4]

Well, on July 4th, I believe it was on July 4th, Drake dropped a new record. Well, I guess like a mini movie. Like a film. I got a short, short film.

[Host 3]

Visualize Episode one. Yeah.

[Host 4]

Okay. I didn't know it was episodes. So, yeah, it was the visual for what did I Miss? Plus a snippet of another record that sounded pretty good. But what's. What's everyone's thoughts of what did I miss? Mall predicted this like in April. Or did you just. Were you just asking the question? What did you miss? And it was just a coincidence.

[Host 3]

It was a coincidence.

[Host 4]

Okay.

[Host 3]

It was a cool.

[Host 4]

I mean, I figured that's it.

[Host 3]

Yeah. Come on.

[Host 4]

Sometimes you wake up, be like, what did I miss?

[Host 3]

Exact. Everybody says it, right? Yeah.

[Host 4]

What's funny is I remember when you tweeted that and I started like looking through the comments of like wondering what you missed. I was like, wait, did I miss something? Did you know that sometimes when Mall puts the laughing emojis, then I gotta go find what he's laughing about? I really thought with the what did I miss? It was similar to laugh emojis. And I was like, I must have missed it too. Yeah, maybe we'll find out on the episode. But. But your thoughts on the record?

[Host 3]

I mean, I've, you know, great record, great song to come back with. Great sentiment. I think he addressed a lot of his feelings coming out of last year. Well, some of his feelings. Not a lot of them, but some of them, I'm assuming. Yeah, it's good, good music. I think that's what Drake is getting back to. Just make some good music. You know, last year we had obviously one of the biggest moments in our culture's history. And you know, him coming out of it, feeling the way he feels and looking back at things. I guess this is the song that he sat in the studio and is what he came up with. So this was the sentiment. What did I miss? And yeah, I like it. Good music.

[Host 4]

Yeah, I know. I think it's a cool record. And this is just going to be more like overthinking it for. Not just for the sake of conversation, but just I like to overthink records. Would it have been better if it was just more open ended and generic? Like, because I think the hook is incredible. I think everyone can relate to that. Like, I think it was really only the pop out line where I was like, either do it or don't. Like either. Go all the way back in and let's go round 19 on this entire thing or just make this record's already there. Like the hook is there. Everything's great about it. I just don't know if the pop out part was necessary because then it brought everyone back to talking about this fucking battle again instead of just a great record.

[Host 3]

News flash, Rory.

[Host 4]

It's never out of what Drake does.

[Host 3]

For the rest of his life.

[Host 4]

Okay, that's a fair point.

[Host 3]

They're gonna bring up that battle. Yeah, just get that out. This could have been a straight R B song. No matter what he does for the rest of his career, somebody is gonna find a line somewhere to attach it to the battle. Yeah, but the pop out line I thought was necessary. Like, you know, it was. He's reminiscing on everything that he sat back and watched.

[Host 4]

So was the. I saw the debate. Was that about Bron or J'? Mar? Or both?

[Host 3]

Listen, man, if you ask those two gentlemen, I think they both feel like it's about them. Right?

[Host 4]

Like, double entendre.

[Host 3]

Tyler may feel like it's about him, you know, like there's a few people that was there. Yeah, they feel like it was about them. So, you know, it's kind of like, if it applies, wear it. That's all.

[Host 4]

But, yeah, I mean, I think it's a catchy record. You know, I'd like. I like the beat switch. It was a school record.

[Host 3]

Yeah.

[Host 4]

Like, I. I don't really want to overthink it. Like, that was kind of just the only thought I had outside of this is catchy and this will probably work for the summer.

[Host 3]

Oh, yeah. I mean, it's definitely gonna work, but.

[Host 4]

Do you think this would be the one to past Michael Jackson? Because I. I like the record. I just don't think it's one of those.

[Host 3]

You don't think this is going to be number one?

[Host 4]

I don't know. Even for Drake, number one records are. Are not as easy as people think they are. Like, overall, it's for hip hop, sure, yeah, it'll be number one. But an overall number one record is a very, very difficult thing to do. Like, look at the last number one Drake head, first person shooter. Like, that's a legendary song. That's a classic record.

[Host 3]

It's.

[Host 4]

It's tough to get number ones. I don't know if this will be the one, though.

[Host 3]

I could be first person shooter. To me, I was shocked.

[Host 4]

It went number one exactly like, I was really shocked.

[Host 3]

I'm not shocked that this is gonna be a number one record. First person shooter to me, definitely. Still to this day, I can't Believe went number one. Wait, because that was, like, a rap record.

[Host 1]

Oh, that's why you didn't. Oh, yeah. I just wanted.

[Host 4]

You.

[Host 1]

Okay. I just wanted to clarify, because I was, like, genuinely confused. Like, that's a no.

[Host 4]

I'll take the classic record, but, like.

[Host 3]

No, no, no.

[Host 4]

It's just. It's such a hit record. Like.

[Host 3]

Yeah, but it's. That's, like rap. Like, you understand what I'm saying? That' really just two MCs rapping on that record, like, would have to be number one. Like, that. Like, I didn't think that that would be number one.

[Host 4]

Even, like, when Cole goes number one, it's. With Miguel. Like, it's never. It's tough to go number one with rap.

[Host 1]

Well, that was Cole's first number one, so he's never went number one before. But, I mean, I get that. But I also. He's also the reason the record went number one. It doesn't go number one without him.

[Host 3]

No, we don't.

[Host 1]

What are we. What are we doing?

[Host 3]

Damaris? You think you can prove that?

[Host 1]

No one can prove. You can't prove anything that you can't.

[Host 3]

He doesn't have the number one. He does not have any of the number one. That's how it's proven.

[Host 1]

Okay. I didn't say that it would go number one without Drake, but I also don't think it goes number one without Cole. I think them together, meshed together is what made that record so good. I don't think that's a wild statement.

[Host 3]

To say if somebody doesn't have any other number one for you to put that against. I think that is a very wild statement for you to say.

[Host 1]

For me to say that them together made the record is.

[Host 3]

No, no, no. It's not what you said. You said without Cold.

[Host 1]

It doesn't go number one. Because the best part of that song is Drake would say the best part of that song is, like, that. That was the most memorable part of the record when it dropped. Am I making this up?

[Host 4]

Like, I think it's, like, a hard thing to even prove. Debate. Yeah, Like. All right, so if Cole's not on it, is it a blank verse? No, it's not going to.

[Host 3]

Like, no, no, no, no. Her statement was, of course that record doesn't go number one.

[Host 1]

I personally don't think that that record.

[Host 3]

Doesn'T have a number one.

[Host 4]

He doesn't get his number one without Alicia Keys, but they both, like, delivered.

[Host 3]

All right, you missed what I'm saying. If an artist does not have a Number one record. How can you make a statement that if he wasn't on that record, it wouldn'.

[Host 4]

Well, everyone gets their first number one. Well, not everyone, but to have a number one record means you, you got a first one without proof that you could get one.

[Host 3]

You still don't answer my question.

[Host 4]

If Cole was to stand out, if.

[Host 3]

You don't have a number, if you don't have any number one records in your, in your catalog. Rory.

[Host 4]

Okay.

[Host 3]

And you have a song with me. I have probably 80 number one records.

[Host 4]

Okay.

[Host 3]

However many we know. Who's counting at this point, right? Is you would make the statement that, yo, if I wasn't on that song, it wouldn't went number one?

[Host 4]

No, I just think they both complement each other. I think there's been plenty of times we know that they both singer has done a hook that didn't have a number one record and it went number one. It's a great song because of their hook.

[Host 3]

It's a great song. We know that they both compliment each other. Well, I'm asking you the statement of saying if this person who doesn't have any number one songs, if he wasn't on this record, it wouldn't go number one, is that a fair statement?

[Host 4]

I said to both of you guys, I think it's not a fair statement on either side. It's a weird thing to even debate.

[Host 3]

Especially when you don't have any other number one record.

[Host 4]

Sure, exactly.

[Host 3]

That's what I'm saying. But back to you, Baby D. I'm sorry.

[Host 4]

Delivered.

[Host 1]

I lost my train of thought, child. Anyway, first. First Person Shooter was amazing. It was an amazing song. I was just wondering why you didn't think that it should have went number one. You said it was rappy rap. I don't think. I think the only person that was super, super rapping, like in a way that songs don't go number one when you rap like that is Cole. Drake didn't really get into a super, super rap bag on that song. He made it. Drake made it like a song. He didn't really go super wreck.

[Host 4]

Even the way he wrapped on that. I wouldn't say are similar to what Drake's number one records have been. It was a very hip hop record to me. That's why I was shocked. That's all.

[Host 1]

Okay, we can agree.

[Host 4]

I mean, I think it's great that a record like that can go number one, but a rapidly rap record like that, you're going to need Drake and J. Cole to make that go number one for sure. And in that sense, because, like, I don't know too many rappy rap records that have ever went number one. Is there any, like, rapity rap songs, maybe Lose yourself. Yeah. Okay. Also Eminem, I'm now cheap rap.

[Host 3]

He rapping, though.

[Host 4]

It's cheo.

[Host 3]

Rapity rap rap, but that's all.

[Host 1]

Yeah, I'm looking up rap songs that went number one on Billboard, but you guys can't keep going. Sorry.

[Host 4]

So Josh had asked in our Twitter, New Royal Twitter community what people were thinking of the new Drake record. Somebody said, I have grudges for from the sixth grade. So, yeah, I too, will never shut the up about someone I consider a friend doing me wrong immediately added to my workout playlist. Yeah, it's relatable. Great. B. But after a couple listens, he still don't realize we want more substance from him. Like, first.

[Host 3]

All right.

[Host 4]

Why? Every song doesn't have that substance. And by the way, that song does have substance on it. It's just like a catchy record. So you don't purposely dumb things down for melody. But what. Like, that's just. I'm just. Everyone's opinions are off to me today. That's all.

[Host 1]

Like, why I just want to throw out here that Mark. That Marky Mark had. Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch has a number one record as, I mean, as they shouldn't.

[Host 4]

And that's.

[Host 3]

That's.

[Host 4]

That's out there. That's rappy rap rap.

[Host 3]

Right.

[Host 4]

What else is on there? That would be surprising.

[Host 1]

Oh, that would be surprising. I don't think any Crossroads went number one. I don't think that that's surprising, though.

[Host 4]

And that. I mean, Bone Dogs are great rappers, but I would not call Crossroads a rapidy rap song.

[Host 1]

Yeah, Hypnotize obviously is on there, but I'm looking for things that are more super rapidly rapid. I'm actually.

[Host 4]

Does first person shooter even have a hook?

[Host 1]

No.

[Host 4]

Yeah, like that. That's shocking. Hypnotized. Even as big as rapping his ass off on that. You know why it's going number one for sure, that sample and the hook.

[Host 3]

But I think first person. Isn't it big as a. Big as the what Biggest. Isn't that the hook? Big as a Super Bowl?

[Host 4]

I love verse.

[Host 3]

I think that's. I think that could be the hook.

[Host 4]

Think so. Do you think they sent an offer out to Nikki? I know she's been talking about touring a lot lately and where that money is going.

[Host 3]

What's up with Nikki, man? What's going on? I love N.I. i know. That's my. That's my dog.

[Host 1]

You a bartender.

[Host 3]

That's my dog. That's my homie. I know. I love Nikki, but what's she doing, man? What she got going on, man? But my phone was blowing up. They're like, yo, your girl killing hov. I'm like, what happened?

[Host 4]

But she's done this before, just not. Not for three days straight.

[Host 3]

That's what I'm saying.

[Host 4]

But she's done this.

[Host 3]

No, she's.

[Host 4]

She's done rants for a day straight.

[Host 3]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. But this. This particular rant Nikki posted. Democrats attacked me over my cousin's balls.

[Host 1]

Yo, the way Ma looked at the.

[Host 3]

Computer, yo, I'm like, this will say bail. Okay? Democrats attacked me over my cousin's balls.

[Host 4]

Do you remember that?

[Host 3]

No, I don't remember that.

[Host 4]

Okay. So she had suggested her. I believe her cousin in Trinidad had taken the vaccine, I think it was. And then his balls shrunk. Was it swollen? They swollen.

[Host 3]

I think I remember that.

[Host 4]

He took a honey pack.

[Host 3]

Yeah. Okay. She said, remember? We remember. Let's see if they have any thoughts, remember, on that. Deseret pardon. This is in regards to Desiree Perez of Roc Nation being pardoned by President Trump. Let's see if they have any thoughts on Brother Billionaire. Is that Jay? Brother billionaire. Brother Billionaire is hilarious. Brother Billionaire never campaigning for Kamala, Kamala or Kamala.

[Host 1]

Kamala.

[Host 3]

Kamala. Even after Obama pleaded with the brothers. Isn't this the brother? The. The one brother who could have probably gotten a job done for y'?

[Host 1]

All?

[Host 3]

Welp, if the top brother in charge can leave y' all hanging without repercussions, then may everyone else leave you hanging as well. Hanging like my cousin's friend's balls.

[Host 4]

Okay, wait, I didn't even know it was her cousin's friend. Like, that's a wild thing with your platform to. To say. And that's your cousin's friend.

[Host 3]

Yeah. Okay, well, I mean, I don't know who that is. I don't know what. Nicki Minaj also.

[Host 1]

I'm sorry, Ma. She also brought up the alleged. The paternity lawsuit that's going on with Jay Z and that random boy who has been saying he's been Jay Z's son for the longest.

[Host 4]

The one that recreated the album covers.

[Host 3]

Yes.

[Host 1]

Yeah.

[Host 4]

I was on his side till he did that. I was like, man, go get your pops, man.

[Host 3]

Yeah, yeah.

[Host 4]

And then I saw that. I was like, never mind.

[Host 3]

Just want a relationship with dad. That's all. And then he Put those covers out. He was like, all right, it's a little weird now.

[Host 4]

I don't know. I mean, we know that there's been a weird relationship with Roc Nation and Nikki since she was one of the investors and owners of title. And I guess she didn't get the right payout. I don't know all the details, just what Nikki is told because Rock has not told their side. But Nikki says she wasn't paid what she should have been paid, 200 million. Okay. I mean, I know he sold title, so, yeah, I'm not saying she's wrong.

[Host 1]

But I think he only sold title for like, how much did he sell title for?

[Host 3]

Can we look that up?

[Host 1]

Yeah, I don't think it was even. I think she had 3% equity in title. I don't think that was worth 200 million. I don't know.

[Host 3]

Steve Jobs said, like, Steve Style said she never signed the paperwork.

[Host 4]

Okay, well, it was sold to Jack Dorsey and Square for $302 million in May of 2021. So, yeah, I don't know. But, I mean, if they didn't pay her anything, I'd feel away. But if she didn't sign the paperwork, then I don't know what to tell you, Nick.

[Host 3]

Yeah, at that point, paperwork wasn't signed. Not saying that Steve Stout's word is.

[Host 4]

Golden, but, yeah, we've seen it not be.

[Host 3]

Yeah, but if. If. If she didn't sign paperwork, then obviously she's not owing anything because it's not in paper. She didn't sign a contract. But even if she does, though, my thing is, if Nikki wants to talk to Jay, I think it's pretty easy for Nikki to get on the phone with Jay Z.

[Host 4]

Well, I think outside. Well, I don't at this point. No, I think earlier, before she's been.

[Host 3]

This point, I think it's quite some. It's going to take a little, you know, just like, yo, is she okay? What's going on? Like, you know, that type of thing. But Nicki Minaj, if she has some gripes with Jay, do the business or any or anything else, I don't think that this is the way to express it and go about it. I think she could easily reach out and get Jay Z on the phone, like, this is Nicki Minaj we're talking about.

[Host 4]

Well, all right, here. Here's where I actually will back Nikki a bit in her. Her point of view of what I think her point of view is it was proven, right, that there was really a conspiracy around the time of Cardi B signing to Atlantic that people were trying to get Nikki out of the paint with different female rappers. That was kind of proven, more or less.

[Host 3]

Yeah. People felt like Nikki needed competition.

[Host 4]

Yeah. And cool. I can even see that side of Atlantic. Like, all right, yeah, let's give her some comp. But I see how she could view that as everyone conspired to get me the fuck out of the paint and everyone went against me. I can see that. Then when Rock signed Megan and then they got in their little tiff and Meg was doing records with Cardi, I could see Nikki feeling away. Like, I have a relationship with hov. Why is Meg throwing shots at me? Why does this feel like now you guys are part of this entire Kaiser Atlantic? Which, again, we don't know what's true and what's not. I could see Nikki feeling away of having that long of a relationship with hov, and now you're funding somebody that is throwing shots at me. I think that's really where it's at. Not the title deal, to be honest. That. That's where I. I think she's upset about. And I don't know what's true, but if that's her perspective, even if she's wrong, if she's thinking that way, I'd be. I'd be mad at hov, too. Yeah.

[Host 3]

I mean, I'm not. You know, again, this is. Nikki obviously feels like, you know, there's some business that was done, that she's owed something cool. We're not in Nikki's business. We don't know exactly the details of the truth behind it. But again, it's just the approach. I think that if you have a real, you know, $200 million you think you're owed, I just don't think that posting on X or Instagram is the way to go about it.

[Host 1]

But that might be. That might be the last resort.

[Host 3]

That's not Nicki Minaj's last resort.

[Host 1]

What I mean is you saying, like, oh, she could. It's probably easy for her to get on the phone. She's probably done all of that. And N is probably still like, nah, I don't owe you this. Or, this is not. So this might be the last resort.

[Host 3]

Okay, so then have your lawyers reach out. I'm just saying this type of behavior seems erratic. It comes off erratic. People be like, oh, what's wrong with Nikki? You know, I've seen people trying to allude to, oh, she's high. She's this. She's. And I'm just like. Or Maybe she really feels like yo business is not handled like, and I want my money if it's 200 M's. Yeah, I need that. I need that ASAP. You know what I'm saying? So, again, I just think the approach is. It just comes off a little. It can be a little weird to people that don't really know what's going on. Like, you just seeing it, it looks like she's on a rant. It look like she's just, you know, going off about something that may. May or may not be true. But I'm more than certain that Nicki Minaj can get Jay Z on a phone call.

[Host 4]

I don't think at this point.

[Host 1]

No, I don't.

[Host 4]

I don't think. I don't think before this rant either, she could. Cause this is not the first time she's done it. She threw sh@dez on that record she had with 6ix9ine. Like, this has been going on for. For quite some time.

[Host 1]

She hates Desiree Perez.

[Host 3]

Okay?

[Host 4]

And I'm sure it feels like DEZ is behind the whole Meg the Stallion thing, because I. I'm sure Nikki is well aware of how that building probably runs where Jay is not day to day, every last thing. But DEZ is. Is the head of that company. So DEZ is that for sure. So I'm sure that's probably also why Nikki is going right at Desiree rather than just Jay Z. Because I mean, shit, even in the Meg thee Stallion doc like you see DEZ there, I can see how Nikki's brain could work that way.

[Host 3]

Oh, no, I get it.

[Host 4]

That DEZ is sitting right next to Megan to make sure that she throws shots at Nikki, even if that's not the case. I can just see Nikki feeling that way. Cause she's expressed that for 10 years now.

[Host 3]

Oh, no, I definitely could see Nikki's case and see why she feels the way. No, 100%. I'm just saying that the approach in trying to communicate comes off in communication. Trying to communicate and get to the bottom of whatever the issue is. I just think that this is the wrong approach. Now, Damaris, you could be right. She may have exhausted all back doors and avenues trying to get it. You know, we don't know. But I'm just saying, I don't think that this. Because now. Okay, what is this? Is this gonna solve it?

[Host 1]

No, no, of course not.

[Host 3]

So that's always my thing. It's like, this is not gonna solve it. So either way. I don't know, man. We have to wait and see if anything comes of this. Anything that she's saying is real or true.

[Host 1]

She also brought up Megan's, and we knew that this was gonna happen. Megan's lawsuit, they were not able to dismiss her former cameraman's lawsuit. Remember when he was complaining about watching them eat pussy in the backseat?

[Host 3]

Well, we understand why he was complaining about that, but go ahead.

[Host 1]

But Nicki was like, oh, what was that law again? Because remember when she dissed, allegedly dissed Nicki Minaj, it was like the Megan's Law bar. And it's like you bringing up sexual assault, but you have a sexual assault case on you now. So she brought that up as well. That was why Josh has Megan's name in there.

[Host 4]

Well, I mean, Twitter always tells the truth, and that's my source on this. They do say that Nikki is in debt. And because Twitter said it has to be true and that the entire Gag City tour went to whatever debt that she owes. And that's why she's crashing out about money that is owed to her because she is broke and needs money.

[Host 3]

How do people just come up with.

[Host 4]

No, Twitter said it. So it's. They brought up this Tennessee bank or something that she. That listen.

[Host 1]

Oh, you were deep in Stanley.

[Host 4]

No, I was scrolling. This was just right in front of my face. Like, that's what people were saying. But who the. I don't know. Maybe Nikki is in debt. I would say. I doubt it, but I know nothing about that woman's life.

[Host 3]

Yeah, well, yeah, I'm on the side of doubt. I doubt that Nicki Minaj is broke too, but I don't know.

[Host 4]

What do you think she spent it on?

[Host 3]

Her money? Yeah, I don't know.

[Host 4]

How would you blow through 200 mil?

[Host 3]

Oh, that's tough. Belong to 200 million? I mean, we don't know. Maybe properties, maybe businesses. You invest. Made some bad investments, business wise.

[Host 4]

Yeah, that's easy.

[Host 3]

Travel. If you fly in private all the time, that starts to add up.

[Host 4]

Scott Store said he ran through a hundred mil just on partying.

[Host 3]

I don't believe that.

[Host 4]

I do.

[Host 1]

I do.

[Host 3]

You spend $100 million partying, you're dead. You don't live.

[Host 4]

Some people have a high tolerance.

[Host 3]

Nah, that happens below.

[Host 1]

Because you're not spending 100. 100 million on just alcohol and drugs. Like, it's the experience.

[Host 4]

Yeah, he was saying the whores.

[Host 3]

I think if you spend $100 million partying, I think physically we'll see that. And you'll probably be like, on your.

[Host 4]

Last leg if you're buy. All right, you're buying $10 million mansions every day. You're throwing yacht parties where just the gas is 50k to go around the harbor and back. Like, I can see Scott Storch on cocaine in a year running through all that.

[Host 3]

I don't.

[Host 4]

You're trying to keep up with Paris Hilton, all the people he was fucking with.

[Host 3]

Like, I think that's just. I think that's cars. And I think people just land on.

[Host 1]

100 million because it's a sexy number.

[Host 3]

It really be like, nigga, you spent 400,000.

[Host 4]

Nah, nah.

[Host 3]

$100 million partying. I'm not rolling with that. I never believe that anybody could spend $100 million doing coke.

[Host 4]

You should watch the Scott Storch interview.

[Host 3]

You drink two bottles of champagne. That headache the next morning is going to feel like you got beat with a baseball bat.

[Host 4]

He's not saying that he spent $100 million on himself partying. It was just like everybody. He was throwing insane parties, yachts, he was buying everyone cars. Like, you could run through that shit. I don't believe any girl that walk in, yo, here's a Lamborghini.

[Host 3]

I don't believe it. I don't believe it.

[Host 4]

I mean, I wish I would have been there.

[Host 3]

100 million, that's just. I think that number is just maybe like 20 million. You know when they be like, yo, it was like 400 people in there.

[Host 1]

And it was 150.

[Host 3]

It was really like 112. You know what I'm saying? It's like beforehand, it sounds like, damn, that word. That's what's up. It's really 112 in there, though. That's what I'm saying. 100 million just seemed.

[Host 4]

May have been 50. Hold on, let me Scott's story.

[Host 3]

Even 50 million is crazy to spend that party. Like, that's insane. Like, you. There's gonna be documentaries. Somebody's gonna be talking about they was violated. Yo, $50 million partying.

[Host 4]

Oh, no. And I quote, I felt like an animal. Scott Storch confesses coke benders, depression, and $100 million spending spree. But you have to understand how much money Scott had at that time.

[Host 3]

No, no, listen, like, I'm very aware Scott Storch was filthy Richard.

[Host 4]

Like, the radio was Scott Storch.

[Host 3]

I just don't think he blew $100 million partying. He may have blew through $100 million, but not partying.

[Host 1]

But if you're partying 24 7, then you did indeed blow through $100 million partying.

[Host 4]

Like, I bought this house in LA just to party. That's running through it part.

[Host 1]

Or I got drunk, or I was fucked up on coke and I was like, yo, I'm about to go buy matching Ferraris. Like, technically you just bought matching Ferraris. But it's the result of partying.

[Host 3]

No, it can add up quick. I done seen people spend. Cause I've seen people spend 5 million like, partying, and I'm like, that's insane. So you going crazy times that by 20. Like, that's what I'm saying. It's just not 100. It's just not. It's like, yo, dawg, I mean, how.

[Host 4]

Much you wasn't with Paris Kim Lil Kim. You wasn't with all the Kim Kim, right?

[Host 3]

You're absolutely right.

[Host 1]

What is the most you ever spent party at all? I'm actually interested like the most.

[Host 4]

You.

[Host 1]

When you was like, you went home and you was like, damn, I blew up back partying. Yeah.

[Host 4]

Like in the night.

[Host 3]

I never really.

[Host 1]

Or like a maybe let's say a weekend.

[Host 3]

But I never really was a party, like party, party head like that. But the most I probably spent on, you know, table bottle service in a weekend hotel, shopping.

[Host 4]

Oh, we're adding all that up in there too.

[Host 1]

That's.

[Host 4]

That's what that was about.

[Host 3]

Like, like at a club, like dinner.

[Host 4]

I was gonna say, like two grand.

[Host 3]

Is the most I ever have in the club. Two grand is the most you spent in a club?

[Host 4]

Probably.

[Host 3]

That's crazy. Two grand. My outfit was two grand one night.

[Host 1]

Hey, step on them hoes, man.

[Host 3]

That ain't hard to do, though. $2,000 outfit is not hard to do.

[Host 4]

Some jeans is $800, but I'm gonna we three years.

[Host 3]

Yeah, yeah. It's not. It's not hard to do, but probably in a weekend of like just out of town partying, I probably ran up close to like maybe 20, 30,000. Yeah.

[Host 4]

Where was I? Yeah, no invite.

[Host 3]

I probably ran up close to 20,000.

[Host 4]

Was that London?

[Host 3]

Hell no. Out spending 20,000 party in London, though. That's the weekend. That's like Friday to Monday.

[Host 4]

All right, can you break down the weekend of like, was it one, was it worth it? Two, what were the events?

[Host 3]

It definitely was not worth it.

[Host 4]

Of course.

[Host 3]

Going to a. Going to.

[Host 4]

Like, can you take me Friday to Sunday night right now?

[Host 3]

You go to a club Friday, Saturday, Sunday. That's half of that right there. If you're getting bottle service. It's not hard to do. Like, it's not. It's really not that hard to do. I agree it's stupid to do it, but it's not hard to do.

[Host 1]

Did you get some pussy at least?

[Host 3]

Damage? I've. I've spent. I've spent no money and got. Beach said.

[Host 1]

That was the other half.

[Host 3]

Like, I've spent no money, of course, like. But that's, you know, it's just stupid, though. Like, once you do that and you, like, die. That wasn't. What was that for? To stand on the couch? I didn't even. I don't. I never was a drinker like that, so I didn't drink much of the alcohol. The dinner is. Okay, cool. But it was like, you 800 dinner, like, 700. This, like, food wasn't that great. This is what I'm talking about. When you come down off that moment and you just start looking back, you like, that was stupid. But, I mean, it's an experience to say you did it.

[Host 4]

What's funny is.

[Host 3]

Will never happen again, though.

[Host 4]

All the nights that I have, like, splurged at the club or, like, bought a table or, like, you know, did the dinner thing and all that, I never got pussy. Cause I was trying to see my investment through. Like, we're staying in this club till 4am Yo. Like, I'm not spending a while. I'm not spending all this for 30 minutes.

[Host 3]

Yo. Make people stay in the club. Cause you paid for the section. Crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where you going?

[Host 4]

This DJ is good.

[Host 3]

You got to pee. You pee right here. You gonna go to the bathroom.

[Host 4]

Like, there was never time to, like, then go get, like. All right, we'll just be at the club for 45 minutes, have fun, and then dip, like. Nah. But we stayed.

[Host 3]

Yeah. No. Yeah. That's just. I don't. It's not worth it.

[Host 1]

Well, y' all not gonna ask me.

[Host 3]

How much you spent?

[Host 4]

I know you went crazy.

[Host 3]

You don't spend no money, Baby D. You'll run up a car, though.

[Host 1]

Oh, like, it has to be your money.

[Host 3]

I think my money, it has to be. Yes, Baby D. It has to be.

[Host 1]

Money that I, like, worked for.

[Host 3]

Yes.

[Host 1]

Probably, like, two bands.

[Host 4]

I mean, is it as crazy a skeptic thinking UK rappers could be an American rapper in a battle?

[Host 1]

Oh, God. Sorry.

[Host 3]

Skeptical. What's up with you, bro? What's going on, bruv?

[Host 4]

Bruv. Bruv is looney. Bruv is a looney.

[Host 3]

So. So skepta has a. He's.

[Host 4]

He's.

[Host 3]

He's into it with Rocky right now, right? Is that.

[Host 4]

Is that like official, like for real.

[Host 3]

That's what he said. He was like after he finished making this, this record dissing rocket, he gonna give joining like a bar in that record. And so I'm just like, oh, so is he talking about ASAP Rock? Is it another Rocky out there that I'm not aware of? I can only think he's assume he's talking about ASAP Rocky at this point. Right. It's only Rocky. I think Skeptic would be.

[Host 4]

Yeah.

[Host 3]

Making a diss record. So unless it's some dope ass artists from the UK named Rocky that's, you know, making noise out there right now. But I think I would have heard of him. I mean.

[Host 4]

Okay, well if it is ASAP Rocky he's talking about, he may have a point. I thought that was an insane statement. But if he saw my ASAP Rocky, I think Skeptic would give Rocky a run. Rocky is. It makes great music, but I don't even think Rocky would say he's like the most lyrical. Yeah, no, like even, even his response to Drake was like, dude, why would you even. You just gave him all the ammo to reply. No, no, this is the worst thought out bar I've ever heard.

[Host 3]

Let's be clear. Like, I know a lot of people are not onto the UK rap scene and don't know, but like they get into that battle mode.

[Host 4]

Oh yeah.

[Host 3]

And Skepta is, you know, he's been at this for a while, so.

[Host 4]

Oh shit. How I heard about a lot of the early UK crime stuff was. Cause they was all beefing.

[Host 3]

Exactly. Yeah.

[Host 4]

It was diss records that, that you heard. They, they do do. I'm not saying in my American arrogant way that we would clean them up, but I mean, because it goes without saying we would clean them up. But I'm not, I'm not. But I'm not taking away of how talented they are, especially when it does come to the battle. But if we send our best and you send your best. I don't know, man.

[Host 1]

He had some other like, some other people lined up as far as Gets versus Eminem, Chip versus Kendrick Lamar, Dave versus Lil Wayne and Young.

[Host 4]

Cleaning Wayne up right now.

[Host 1]

Okay. And Young's Teflon versus Meek Mill are a few of the head to heads that he floated.

[Host 3]

Yeah, you can't do that. But why?

[Host 4]

Yeah, why we got other niggas, Scat.

[Host 3]

Like, what's up with you, bro? It's other niggas that can rap. Like, what he doing?

[Host 4]

Why you just threw Meek in the.

[Host 1]

Mix like that Meek is minding his business.

[Host 3]

Yeah, like Meek ain't Meek. Ain't even say nothing to nobody.

[Host 1]

Like I think they said Blade Brown versus Pusha T, Queenie versus Megan Thee Stallion, Central C with Jack Harlow.

[Host 3]

And I ain't gonna lie, Cinch might rap Jack up though. Cinch might rap Jack all I with.

[Host 4]

Central C. But I think you, he might. You underrated. Nah, I'm taking Jack in that he might listen.

[Host 3]

I love Churchill Downs too, Rory, but he might pack.

[Host 4]

Jack got packed up on that song though.

[Host 3]

I mean. Yeah, but that's one of his better, better verses though.

[Host 4]

I mean. Pause Jackman. He was rapping, rapping on that.

[Host 3]

Central Cinch might get him though. That matchup. That's the matchup that we might have to sit back and analyze a little deeper. Hmm.

[Host 4]

I don't. I think Central cuz remember Cinch is.

[Host 3]

That he's UK drill.

[Host 4]

Yeah.

[Host 3]

So that whole that energy, that's already aggressive energy that he lives in, I just feel like he invented the Nike tech.

[Host 4]

That is true.

[Host 3]

So he's war ready.

[Host 4]

I just feel like as whites we need to stick together. We're better together. White on my crime.

[Host 3]

I love white on white crime. Need it, need it in my life.

[Host 4]

Meanwhile, I was fine with all the other matchups. Hell yeah.

[Host 1]

Joyner said he wants smoke with Skeptic. So.

[Host 4]

Skeptic says joining Lucas isn't big enough. I mean we already know. I don't know. Joyner might win because he might rap from skeptics perspective and dis himself. He might battle like. He might battle damn. And like put up.

[Host 3]

Joyner could rap though.

[Host 1]

Yeah, Joyner can rap.

[Host 3]

Joyner could rap.

[Host 4]

He's.

[Host 3]

He's battle tested. He could rap.

[Host 4]

I vocal skeptics, I'm taking Joyner in that battle.

[Host 3]

But skeptics battle tested too. And he can rap. So I mean listen man, if it's all for sport it, let's see it. That's where I'm at now, man. If rappers feel. Because we complain for years worry about rappers not rapping.

[Host 4]

Oh yeah.

[Host 3]

Rappers started acting, rappers started modeling, rappers started fucking trying to play sports. All kind of shit. Anything but rapping. Now that rappers want to rap, I'm happy. Fuck it. Let them rap rap. Join a Fuck it. Drop the record Joiner. Don't wait for skip. Drop the fucking record. I know you got it recorded. Drop the record. Fuck you. Let's start. It started off, set it off.

[Host 4]

Did you want to reply? Because he's always trying to.

[Host 3]

He need to reply to the Record tonight. Drop it. Release the fucking record. That's how you get a rapper to respond. Don't. You gotta wait for no IG Post and go live and it. Nah, I'm on your top. Here's the record. Drop it on YouTube, wherever. Let's get into it. Let's see what y' all could do.

[Host 4]

Did. Did he put gigs up against anyone in a hypothetical?

[Host 1]

I didn't see gigs, no.

[Host 3]

Are they cool? Skeptic. Yeah, I can only assume they are.

[Host 4]

Okay.

[Host 3]

I don't. I don't. I don't think they have. I don't mean. I don't know. I haven't, you know, really gotten into that, but I cannot.

[Host 1]

I believe they are, but I don't now. Let me go back. Skepta named a few of these, but a lot of these were, like, fans. Yeah, I just wanted to.

[Host 4]

I mean, I wouldn't want to battle gigs outside of him being a great rapper. I just. I think he might take that too far.

[Host 1]

Gigs is so sweet. I would put that on.

[Host 4]

Of course he is. Those be. Those be the ones. Maris. People in the world.

[Host 3]

Yeah.

[Host 4]

Say the wrong thing.

[Host 3]

A lot of machete the size of that tripod right there with that amazing.

[Host 4]

Smile that he has with just a machete like this.

[Host 3]

Shout out to Gigs, man.

[Host 4]

Speaking of that, what is going on at SeaWorld? I know we talked about the Yin Yang Twins. I didn't know people were doing residencies. I saw Soulja Boy walk out.

[Host 3]

Once again, they're using hip hop culture as a means to keep animals in prison.

[Host 4]

Yep.

[Host 3]

Do with that what you will.

[Host 1]

So what we're going to do about it, like, as a family. Like what?

[Host 4]

Oh, wait, this is the whole. I didn't see a schedule. Okay. Soldier boy and Bow Wow. Wait, did they do Marco Polo at SeaWorld?

[Host 1]

Oh, my God, that would be fire.

[Host 4]

Nah, that's. That's worth the price. That's worth some of the whales.

[Host 1]

It's in two days.

[Host 3]

Who does SeaWorld high over there? Like, who's the new head of Head of Talent?

[Host 4]

Steve Stout.

[Host 3]

Somebody.

[Host 1]

Somebody who got fired.

[Host 4]

Vibe.

[Host 3]

Steve Stout. Yo, Ste. World High is Steve St.

[Host 4]

What's Steve St? The company again. Kaz and Carl work there. Translate. That's definitely a translation thing right there.

[Host 3]

Oh, my God. That is hilarious.

[Host 1]

Go back to the schedule.

[Host 3]

Yeah, Somebody, somebody. They hired somebody over there. New head of entertainment because they got Waka flock on the 26th. I label May Fat Joe Joey crack.

[Host 4]

Which my volume is not flying us out to cover that.

[Host 3]

Crack. God. R. I. What's his name? Crack God, Rakim, Allah. That's what Fat Joe said they used to call him growing up.

[Host 4]

Oh, okay. Fat Joe was Muslim.

[Host 3]

He said that's what they called him in the Bronx.

[Host 4]

Okay.

[Host 3]

He was Crack God, Rakim, Allah. Waka flock on the 26th. I love the 90s tours. Making a stop this week. Color Me Bad, Color Me Bad. Rod Bass, tretch and young MC. One of Damaris. Top five female MCs of all time. Trina.

[Host 4]

Baddest bitch in the land.

[Host 3]

Trina gotta be there. August 9th. Genuine. You know he gonna give us another viral moment. August 16th. Wait for it. Rory.

[Host 4]

No. First of all, he's gonna perform so anxious. And the whales are gonna be like.

[Host 3]

Yeah, yeah, I've been anxious.

[Host 4]

You see my fin fall over. I'm extremely anxious.

[Host 3]

I've been in this tank for 20 years. And then the Turnt Up Tour. Petey Paolo, Paul Wall, J. Quan, and this is Legend P. Just Jay Z, Bubba Sparks. Nah, I'm not.

[Host 1]

This a lineup. This better than any festival I've seen in the past couple years.

[Host 4]

I am so anti Sea World. And their marketing is working.

[Host 3]

This is what I'm saying. But it's.

[Host 4]

What?

[Host 3]

Because they're using us, using our culture, because we make everything cool. Meanwhile, these animals are depressed, anxious, trying to commit suicide, stare at a wall for hours. And on a day like, nah, man, we ain't supposed to be supporting. See, we've seen it. We saw the documentary. We just saw the documentary a few years ago. We don't support SeaWorld. Now. Here they come for hiring a new head of entertainment, and they bring in our fucking legends there. And we going in there to shake ass now while the fucking orcas are fucking ready to commit suicide.

[Host 4]

That's like if they put Soulja Boy and bow out in front of mdc. Specifically in front of the criminals that were wrongfully accused of everything.

[Host 3]

Right?

[Host 4]

But we're just going to, like, in Chow. Soulja Boy will be there.

[Host 3]

This is crazy, man. I mean, shout out to, you know, Waka Flock and all these guys, they get in the bag. But we can't support C. We don't support C World. Listen, you support C World.

[Host 1]

I don't support C World. But the Turnt Up Tour with Petey Pablo, Paul Wall j' Quan and Bubba Sparks.

[Host 3]

We support the Turnt Up Tour. We want to turn up, but not at C World. We don't support C World, man.

[Host 4]

Hold on. I also have to know, like, all right, so I saw the Yin Yang Twins won and the Whales are like, that's the whale tank. Are the whales, like, jumping? Are they around during the performance? And have they tested every song from this entire set list? Not to be a nerd, but whales are, like, very much with tones. That's how they speak. You've heard all the whale talk. What happens when Waka going, bow, bow, bow, has a whale just grab somebody's leg? We don't know what this music does to whales.

[Host 3]

Yeah, I don't like it. Something about it doesn't feel right. What if the whale jumps over Fat Joe like it did in Free Willy? Yo, if Fat Joe get that off, he the illest ever, and he leans.

[Host 4]

Back while he does it.

[Host 3]

Oh, my God, are you kidding?

[Host 4]

He lean right just like that.

[Host 1]

That's fire choreographed that.

[Host 3]

Yeah, they do that. Now they get.

[Host 4]

That would go up there with the photo of Trump holding his ear after the assassination. If Fat Joe leans back with a.

[Host 3]

Whale going over Fat Joe get that off, dog. Listen, man, he the illest nigga ever, man. But we can't. We still can't support this, man.

[Host 4]

Just got to know, did they play any music for the whales before this?

[Host 1]

No, Rory, they did not.

[Host 3]

Yeah, they play that one little stupid song where they make the whale wave. You know that song that they press and they throw them a piece of heron.

[Host 1]

I never. I've never been to SeaWorld, so I don't know.

[Host 3]

You should never go to SeaWorld.

[Host 4]

Okay?

[Host 3]

Should never support.

[Host 1]

You're very anti SeaWorld. Like, it's a lot of that's, like.

[Host 3]

Bad for Animals are in captivity. They're depressed. You haven't seen. She. She didn't see the dog.

[Host 1]

You don't even be believing in depression when me and Rory tell you we're suicidal. But you give a. About them whales.

[Host 3]

Yeah, because the whales are whales. They're not supposed to be there. They're not supposed to be in that tank. There's so much.

[Host 4]

I'm white. I'm not supposed to be on this planet.

[Host 3]

Well, yeah, you're not supposed to be. I'm a black woman.

[Host 1]

I'm not supposed to be at work.

[Host 4]

Hold on, Master at work audio listeners. He's.

[Host 3]

Did I get him?

[Host 4]

No, wait, that was your strategy?

[Host 1]

Yeah, baby.

[Host 4]

Speaking of Petey Pablo, he just whipped his shirt like a helicopter and tried to.

[Host 3]

That's how you got to do it. I thought I got him. I scared him.

[Host 1]

Just describing to the listeners how moss trying to kill a fly is just.

[Host 3]

Like, I scared him. No, I ain't get him, but I scared him. He knows.

[Host 4]

He knows North Carolina, born and raised up.

[Host 3]

Yeah, he knows big business over here. Yeah, but don't shout out SeaWorld. Yeah, fuck SeaWorld, man. But I mean, once again, they're using us to make shit cool. Even if it means making animals being held in captivity cool.

[Host 4]

I think that's going to backfire on them. I don't know if we'll even get to. I love the 90s. I think something's gonna go wrong.

[Host 3]

Like what? One of the trainers are going to get dragged to the bottom of the tank and held there until they stopped breathing.

[Host 4]

Well, actually, after that happened, they just moved that whale to another seaweed.

[Host 3]

They were like, yo, we got to move. Put him in isolation.

[Host 4]

No, not isolation. He's just going to perform where people didn't see that.

[Host 3]

They don't know what he did.

[Host 4]

Very Catholic priest.

[Host 3]

Like, yeah, they don't know what he perished. They don't know. They don't know. He just killed somebody in San Diego. Yeah, man. I don't know, man. This is. This is us, you know, they're. They're using our culture once again for stupid. But whatever, man, get it back. Do we have another voicemail?

[Host 1]

Josh just came in. Okay.

[Caller]

Hey, guys. I was just calling in with some relationship question. I met a guy. We were talking for a few weeks. We saw each other a couple of times, but it was hard to really kind of make a date. We finally had a date.

[Host 3]

We.

[Caller]

And we hooked up. And the next day, I thought because he was so sweet and so, like, letting me know he had a good time talking to me and things like that, that I would just, like, match his energy to let him know that I had a fun time seeing him and being with him. And he wrote me back kind of like, oh, yeah, it was fun. And suddenly I felt like I could feel this shift. And so I'm kind of wondering, like, is that a form of game to, like. I know, I know, like, sweet talking and stuff is that. But to kind of lay it on thick, to make someone feel so comfortable that they can, like, speak their mind. And now I'm kind of wondering, like, did I just get played? Like, he got what he wanted and, you know, everything went just to get me there. And, like, if, like, that's what guys do, because I definitely feel like. I just, like. I feel so thrown off by, like, post hookup, what's going on. But anything you guys can say, thank you.

[Host 3]

If you talked anything like that, then I would have disappeared, too, after I. And you what, man? We all thinking It. All right. It. I'm gonna just stop saying. All right, go ahead.

[Host 4]

No, no, I was thinking, poor baby. How old is this woman?

[Host 3]

Oh, no, that's a grown woman.

[Host 4]

Did she lose her virginity with that hookup?

[Host 3]

No, she probably was talking.

[Host 4]

Feel like at a early age, women learned that there could be times when a guy acts like the nicest person that he wants to, like, really date you, and then you finally let him be, and then you don't hear from him.

[Host 3]

Yeah.

[Host 4]

Like, how many movies have we seen?

[Host 1]

If A asks you at dinner, yo, what type of man you like, don't tell him. That will morph, like the mask into whoever the. You say.

[Host 4]

Yeah.

[Host 3]

Oh, I've seen that plenty. I've gone right to the bathroom, washed my face, came back a whole new. Every time, read a couple articles in the bathroom, act like I know. We talk, hold the conversation like, no, the Dems are out of control. Rory. I'll get into that.

[Host 4]

Then she go to your IG page like it's a completely different guy.

[Host 3]

Yeah, man, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, man. Listen, it's called game, Damaris is what it's called. Run game. Y' all run game, too. Y' all act like y' all like a T. Y' all get that Chanel bag.

[Host 1]

No. Why would you act like you like them until you get the Chanel bag? You're gonna want another one, Mom. Use your common sense.

[Host 3]

Nah, but he ain't gonna get you another one. He ain't got it like that. That one sent him back a year and a half. No. Hey, hey, hey, Baby D. That one set him back like a. He's gonna be eating cereal for about three months.

[Host 4]

And why am I buying a snow bag if I already beat?

[Host 3]

Yeah. Yeah, if I beat already. Yeah.

[Host 4]

So I'm not buying you a Chanel bag.

[Host 3]

Yeah, if I did, did or did get the out of here. But back to this young lady. Yes, it sounds like he got what he wanted. Don't beat yourself up too much about it. Like, it. It happens. It is what it is, you know, just brush yourself off and get back in the game, man. That's all.

[Host 1]

Yeah, that really is what you got to do. Like, I. It'll be all right. There will be another.

[Host 3]

Now, what you do is the next time. The next date you go on, you say, hey, listen, the last time I did this, I gave him some, and he disappeared.

[Host 1]

Don't do that.

[Host 3]

Don't do that. I do that. Don't do that. You let him put it out there. That's the problem. Nobody want to be real no more. It's 2025, baby. Everybody shut the up and be real. If you ain't being real, shut the up. Go back into the dating pool and let them know, hey, the last I gave some, he started acting weird after he do not do that. And he disappeared. And then the next one of you I give some to if you disappear, I'm calling rape.

[Host 4]

Oh, my.

[Host 3]

Yeah. Scare these baby D scam and thinking that the cops gonna show up, act right when they think the police coming.

[Host 4]

Somebody said that we wouldn't make it to the advertisement. Yeah, man, I think I would call rape.

[Host 3]

Yeah. Nah, but she. I mean, it. Could there be a reason he disappeared?

[Host 1]

Ma, I just.

[Host 3]

I'm just asking.

[Host 1]

You don't took seven ways.

[Host 3]

I'm just. Because we. We don't. We don't have enough info.

[Host 4]

Yes, we do. This. Let's not overthink this. You got got. The game is the game.

[Host 3]

The game is like, why. But why did he just. Because she said he was cool.

[Host 4]

He probably just wanted to beat.

[Host 1]

Because he probably just wanted to beat that. You know how do beat sometimes think they want more. They beat and they be like, yeah, I really just wanted to beat, like.

[Host 3]

And they lose, and then sometimes you want to beat. You beat and you be like, damn, I think I love this bitch.

[Host 4]

Yeah.

[Host 1]

Yeah. Sometimes that is. How often has that happened to you?

[Host 3]

A few times.

[Host 1]

Yeah. Out of all the 3 million times.

[Host 4]

You done stuck, your bestie said, I think I love this bitch.

[Host 3]

A week later, you're right.

[Host 3]

She's this been me and this bitch watching First 48 together. All kind of shit. Like, you still here. I planned to hit, and then that was it. Like, you and you cool. You all right. Look at you.

Yeah, that's the year. That's the year, baby. The four holidays of the year. That's the year. We got Memorial Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas.

[Host 4]

But. And Valentine's Day.

[Host 3]

[Host 4]

Either leave before or you start after.

[Host 3]

Yeah, Christmas, get the gifts, you go into the new year.

[Host 1]

Why are you so against Valentine's Day? Like, what is it?

[Host 4]

Because it's another chore for me. Chocolate.

[Host 3]

That y' all want to go out. First of all, I live in New York City. You know how hard it is to get a reservation in New York City?

[Host 1]

Not if you make it in January. You've been fucking her since September.

[Host 3]

I don't know what I want to eat in February and January, baby D. You want me to make a reservation for February? January 1st.

[Host 1]

No, I didn't say January 1st. You could make it January 25th.

[Host 3]

Nah, that shit. Two weeks, you got New York City fucked up.

[Host 1]

Yeah, I know.

[Host 3]

N come to New York for Valentine's Day.

[Host 1]

Yeah, I know. I don't know why they do.

[Host 4]

And why would you want to go out on the night that everybody's going out?

[Host 3]

Like, you can't say that, because then that means you don't want to be seen with them on the day that everybody's out with their love.

[Host 4]

I don't want to sit in traffic.

[Host 3]

I don't want to wait.

[Host 4]

I don't wanna.

[Host 3]

You're using logic. You got to use love. But it doesn't have you sitting in the Lincoln Tunnel on Valentine. No.

[Host 1]

Y' all keep bringing up. Y' all keep bringing up restaurants. There's so much other and things that you can do for somebody that you care about.

[Host 3]

Now, y' all can't ig that.

[Host 4]

Yeah, that's really.

[Host 3]

Y' all want to go to the same restaurant. All these they go to.

[Host 1]

I actually never want to go to a restaurant on Valentine's Day. Do not take me to a restaurant Valentine's Day. I have to do, like, well, you.

[Host 3]

Want to go on Valentine's Day? Do something you're gonna want to eat.

[Host 1]

Baby D. But you can do, like, for example, for Valentine's Day, I had somebody we ordered really expensive food in, but you got me really nice gifts, and we spent the whole day together. Like, I don't feel like you're hiding me because we didn't go out. We have common sense.

[Host 3]

But, y'. All.

[Host 4]

What did you do for him?

[Host 1]

You said, what?

[Host 4]

What'd you do for him?

[Host 1]

I got him a gift too.

[Host 3]

Okay.

[Host 1]

What about me? What about me? Sorry.

[Host 4]

I'm sorry.

[Host 3]

Yes. You see, you feel good now, right? You felt the serotonin? Did you feel the release? Did you feel it hit your brain? Did you feel it, Baby D? Yes.

[Host 4]

She's saying that though. But I know what the gift was because women think is a gift.

[Host 1]

It was not. It was not. It was not. It was an actual gift. I spent money on. I spent over 300 on it.

[Host 4]

You just got expensive wax.

[Host 3]

She bought that roll with his name on it.

[Host 4]

First of all, 100%.

[Host 3]

Why is that a Women go to. I know my name. I don't need to know that. This is my robe in my house. This is my house. Everything in here is mine. Don't put my name on my robe.

[Host 4]

I still have in a last relationship. I got two rows, my name on it. They sat. They are still collecting dust in the house. Like, I. I'm not wearing.

[Host 3]

I got a nice robe with my name on it, and I've never worn one.

[Host 4]

I'm not a robe person.

[Host 3]

It's like a. It's actually a really nice robe, but I feel like I would have to be. I can't be in my house with that robe. Like, that's like a role where I gotta be on vacation. Cause it's like so flamboyant. Like, if you was to come to the crib and I had that robe on, Baby D, you be like, what the fuck he got going?

[Host 4]

Dressed like Nino Brown. Yeah.

[Host 3]

Like, it's like a flamboyant. It's dope, but it's like, I gotta be like, on vacation. Really? Like in my. In my bag. Like, no, I'm being extra. Like, I gotta know that I'm being extra. I can't be at the home, at the crib, just chilling with that on.

[Host 4]

Bringing a robe on vacation to me is kinda sick too. That's what I'm wasting a lot of suitcase space for a fucking robe.

[Host 3]

So that's why it's like I never wore it. But it's, you know, it's. It's nice though. It's a really nice robe.
