Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Origins & Evolution in Podcasting

(05:12–13:57)

• Meeting & Friendship:
  • Jameela & Mecca met as college roommates at Hampton University in 2014, bonding over holidays and shared experiences as out-of-towners.
• Starting Unhinged & Immoral:
  • Their podcast arose after numerous TikTok Lives revealed their natural chemistry and unique perspectives (notably after a viral Shannon Sharpe discussion).
  • The name "Unhinged & Immoral" stems from their bold personalities and PR/journalism backgrounds, where "sometimes it gets a little unethical in our space" (06:35 — Jameela).
• Recognition & Representation:
  • Lex and Drea offer flowers for breaking out as women in a male-dominated medium:

    "It's hard to go from just being on social media and then doing stuff in real life. People are interesting on the internet, but they not interesting in real life." (04:39 — Lex P)

2. Navigating Social Media: Trolls, Cancel Culture & Authenticity

(06:45–15:51, 36:31–46:21)

• Dealing with Online Hate:
  • Jameela reflects on her urge to defend herself:

    "I just felt like, oh my gosh, I'm being so misunderstood. The life of a Gemini." (07:49 — Jameela)

  • Both learned responding sometimes feeds more negativity, and now mostly ignore or joke about it.
• Internet Personas vs. Real Life:
  • Lex: "It's weird when you meet people in person and they're nothing like their online persona." (43:45)
  • The group discusses the importance of maintaining personality authenticity across platforms.
• Cancel Culture & Going Mainstream:
  • The higher your profile, the more you're scrutinized ("It's gonna get worse the more mainstream y'all get." 11:48 — Lex).

3. Individual Dreams & Side Hustles

(14:34–17:01)

• Jameela: Film, production (Ring a Bell Productions), music management.
• Mecca: Media personality, acting (especially on Tubi!), and talk show ambitions.
  • "I want to be like a Tubi celebrity." (16:16 — Mecca)
  • Both highlight getting real opportunities from connections like KevOnStage.

4. Favorite Segment: Poor Decisions

(18:16–27:49)

• Lex: Attempting to assemble furniture alone—“Just pay the $70 for assembly.” (19:14)
• Mecca: Her dog’s flea outbreak and a failed home grooming session—“My baby looks a mess.” (20:26)
• Jameela: Oversharing is her Achilles heel; reflects on accidentally spilling people’s business.
  • “You ever spill somebody's business and you didn't mean to?” (25:18 — Jameela)
• Night Out Tales:
  • Hitting Magic City with Ken the Man, suffering through hungover work calls, and indulging in strip club food.

5. Stripping, Attire, and In-the-Club Food

(28:21–32:14)

• The hosts and guests compare Atlanta and Houston strip clubs—debating acrobatics, food, and the power of a good burger.

6. Honesty vs. Meanness Online

(35:31–39:50)

• Where’s the Line?

  • Intent matters—“You can be honest without being an asshole… what’s the purpose of you saying this anyway?” (35:31 — Lex)
  • "There's a difference between mean aunties and nasty aunties." (36:28 — Mecca)

• On Criticism:

  • The people giving online style advice usually "look a mess", as Mecca's brother says:

    “We've been telling this bitch she can't dress. I done went to y' all pages, and y' all look a goddamn mess.” (38:03 — Mecca)

7. Would You Rather: Creator Edition

(47:54–55:12)

• Viral for a hot take vs. a wardrobe malfunction? Hot take, hands down—malfunctions are “here and gone.”
• Accidentally post a thirst trap to close friends or family group chat? Close friends!
• Hilarious nude mishaps—iCloud leaks, siblings catching messages, and high school horniness nostalgia.

8. Nostalgia, Black Culture, and Growing Up

(55:27–65:20)

• Laugh-out-loud reminiscing about horny teen years, imaginary crush scenarios, and classic Black sitcoms.
• The years of Black Planet, aim, BBM, and Sidekicks—the digital evolution of their generation.

9. Are We Really That Freaky or Is It Just the Internet?

(73:28–82:12)

• Sometimes people oversell their freakiness for attention—“It’s like a competition… Throat Goat, Shea, we all got a coochie, baby!” (81:56 — Jameela)

• A listener asks if she should rekindle a friendship after her best friend slept with her ex.

But everybody, especially in the TikTok world, know who these girls are. Okay? Some certified yappers. Okay. Some journalism queens, okay? They are running the TikTok streets. Okay? Anytime you want some news, you better be on they pages. We have Jamila and Mecca from the.

[Jameela]

Unhinged and Tomorrow podcast.

[Lex P]

What's up, y'?

[Jameela]

All? Hey.

[Lex P]

Hey, y'.

[Jameela]

All. How y' all doing? Good.

[Mecca]

Excited.

[Lex P]

First of all, let me say this. Let me just say, like, congratulations on, like, everything that's been going on with y', all, because I am a watcher, right? Like, I love to see what other women in this space are doing, so. Because I feel like it's not enough of us in this space, Everybody be like, take the mics away.

[Jameela]

It ain't enough of us.

[Lex P]

It's not enough of us. So I really, like, I love seeing, like, y' all were at the Essence Festival doing the panel, like, all that good stuff. So I just want to give y' all yalls flowers and tell y' all y' all are doing yalls things.

[Jameela]

Thank you.

[Lex P]

Because one thing I will say that me and Dre can attest to, it's hard to, like, go from just being on social media and then, like, doing stuff in real life. Cause a lot of people, a lot of times we don't talk about it much, but it's like, people will be interesting on the Internet, but they not interested in real life.

[Mecca]

That's a fake.

[Lex P]

You know what I'm saying?

[Jameela]

I do.

[Lex P]

It's very hard to, like, make that transition. Like, we were just talking about before the camera started, like, that transition to, like, mainstream stuff and, like.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

You know what I'm saying? So we gonna take it back and start from the beginning. Now, where did y' all meet?

[Mecca]

We were roommates in college at Hampton University. So we met, like, freshman year, 2014.

[Jameela]

A while ago.

[Mecca]

Yes.

[Lex P]

Yeah. What year we met?

[Jameela]

We met in 2015. Yeah.

[Lex P]

Okay.

[Mecca]

So we've been friends for a little second. I used to go home with her family because she's from out here or lived out here.

[Lex P]

Okay.

[Mecca]

And being all the way from California, them ticket prices, my mom was like, you might have to stay. So it was easier to, like, drive with her to Atlanta or go to, like, Mobile, Alabama, with her dad's people for, like, them short holidays. Like, not Christmas, but, like, Thanksgiving giving, like, the little spre and stuff.

[Jameela]

Yeah. Okay. So how did y' all come up with the name for the podcast? Cuz I feel like y' all have such a good name for y'. All. Podcast Unhinged. Yeah, so we actually had a couple of different names before we were trying to figure that out. And then we were, like, going to different podcasts. Like, let's see if this is a name up. That's a name up. That's a name. And so we were like, okay, well, let's just really think, like, who are we? And I was like, we're very unhinged. But there's actually a podcast, like, the Unhinged podcast. What else are we. So we were actually thinking about how we talk a lot about our PR background, like, studying journalism. And I was like, you know, one thing I always learn from our professors is sometimes it gets a little unethical in our space. Sometimes it is a bit immoral.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

But it will get you out. And so we just kind of meshed that, too, because we knew we wanted to, like, hit on the PR aspect of things. And so, yeah, that's pretty much how we came up with it, I think a lot.

[Lex P]

I see a lot of similarities with, like, poor minds and y' all as well, because, baby, they be dragging y' all on the tick tock street down now. See, we get dragged.

[Jameela]

We get dragged on Twitter. We're like, they.

[Lex P]

Oh, they hate us on Twitter.

[Mecca]

You know what's crazy? I was. I called my best friend. We used to listen to y' all in college when y' all had the Stella Rose and y' all was talking about big ballers. I was like, that's a throwback. Like, that's. We literally started calling boys who we thought had money because in college, they didn't have money that we thought we did.

[Jameela]

Bdb.

[Lex P]

Bdb. Yes. But, yeah, I wanted to talk about that too, because one thing about me and Draya, like, when scandal happens or something, and we just be like, all right, we gonna log off for a few days. We just gonna let it blow over. Cause something else gonna happen, and we just don't really address it. But y' all be like, oh, hey, I got something to say, like, every time something goes on. But, I mean, is it more so of like, you feel like you have to defend yourself, or is it more so of, like, I'm getting paid, I might as well talk about it. You know what I'm saying?

[Jameela]

I was gonna say, for me, it was a lot of defending, because it's like, wait, no, it's not who I am. I swear to God, I'm not that person. I just felt like, oh, my gosh, I'm being so misunderstood. The life of a Gemini. My God. And I just felt like, no, I need to double down and explain where I'm coming from. Because I think also there was this point in time where people started to take me seriously, and that was never the goal. I don't ever want you to do that. I'm not a serious person. So I was like, okay, we're getting besides ourselves. So, yeah, that was that. And then I realized, okay, me doing that is kind of giving y' all more attention, giving y' all more heat, giving y' all more followers.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

My God, on today, that won't happen again. Right? So now I just shut the hell up.

[Lex P]

Yeah, I think that's smart, too, because I seen somebody. I can't remember, it was they made a video about one of y', all, and they were just like, she blocked me, and she was just basking in the glory. That was. It was the weirdest video.

[Jameela]

And started selling T shirts. Yeah. Yeah, that's the one.

[Lex P]

I said, hold on.

[Jameela]

And sometimes that's all people want. They be wanting that moment so bad. Like, it makes them feel good about themselves that, oh, I got a response from her, and that's really all they be wanting. Sometimes we be over here mad at somebody heavier.

[Mecca]

Part of troll Twitter.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

So I already know that archetype in the head. Like, ooh, this is the list of celebrities who have blocked me.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

So. And when I made my TikTok, I used to be on there beefing with Hebrew Israelites.

[Lex P]

So I kind of, oh, you, girl.

[Mecca]

I've had an arch Nemesis on TikTok for, like, since the beginning of my TikTok.

[Jameela]

Why specifically them? I, too, have beef with them. They dox me. I said, I'll never talk about you again.

[Lex P]

My bad.

[Mecca]

I didn't care. I just. I just be feeling like they be talking too crazy. A lot of time, it's dipped in misogyny, and it's just like. But you all are black people's gift.

[Jameela]

Original, man. All right.

[Lex P]

Yeah. But I just feel like when I saw that video specifically, I was like, this is actually kind of. It's kind of scary a little bit.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

And crazy to see somebody just, like, forcing themselves to laugh. Like, you know, you probably had to hit record. Like, hold on, let me do that again.

[Jameela]

And I was like.

[Lex P]

It was unhinged.

[Jameela]

A little immoral, though.

[Lex P]

Yeah. So I feel like, how do y' all deal with that, though? Is it, like. Do y' all come up, like, with a game plan? Like, okay, this is what's going on. Because we have to address this. Cause sometimes one time, things got so bad with us, we had to come up with a game plan. We was like, okay, what are we gonna do, girl?

[Jameela]

We had to get on TikTok.

[Lex P]

Yes. It was like. It was. Cause it got too out of hand. Do y' all ever, like, call each other and be like, okay, girl, this is what we're gonna do.

[Mecca]

We've been better. I was gonna say that. Yeah.

[Jameela]

Where we have to be like, all right, all right. We can play this a couple of ways.

[Lex P]

Okay.

[Jameela]

But most of itty bitty stuff, we just kind of.

[Mecca]

We be in separate tips, though. It'd be stuff where it's like, I said this. They're mad at me. She's not involved. Or, like, vice versa. So only when it gets too big, where it's like, they're mentioning us as a unit.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

And it's like, okay, we'll respond as a unit. But a lot of time it's like, this is an independent thought, and we're both kind of the same way. I think about what I say before I say it. So if I said it, I mean, that's what I mean. So you just don't have to be mad. Or we can address it.

[Jameela]

Don't have a. Y' all don't really do that either. I'm not really that apologetic about things that I say. If I said that, I'm standing on you. Yeah.

[Lex P]

I'm more of like, I'm. I'm gonna explain myself.

[Jameela]

Why? Didn't mean like that exactly. Like, a little Extra. But I'm not about to sit here and say I jam apologize for the thing. No.

[Mecca]

But there's also a sect of Tik tok that will purposely, like, misconstrue what you say. But then it'd be like, now, you know, I mean that. Exactly. And I feel like with us having been in so much controversy, especially in the last year, you can see how we have like, at the top, dealt with it. But then also, like, now we turn it more so into jokes. Now we brought other people in. Like, my brother is my anger translator. So he'll be on there cussing because it's like, well, y' all know I'm not gonna cuss no one out, but he will, right? So we kind of have that going on too.

[Lex P]

And I think if I'm being honest, it's gonna get worse the more mainstream y' all get.

[Mecca]

T.S. madison told us that.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

I mean, cancel culture is such a big thing. Like, people wanna cancel you for every little thing. So they always looking for that thing to cancel you for when you make.

[Lex P]

It from online to like, more mainstream TV type stuff. They hate that. Cuz they. A lot of people are like, why them and not me? So it's like a lot of people who supported, they, like, oh, I used to love them, but now that they're doing like this and they're doing like that, it's. It's really weird.

[Jameela]

It's cool when you on the timeline.

[Lex P]

Yeah, it's cool when you on the.

[Jameela]

Start doing things bigger than that. It's like a lot of unwarranted hate. Yeah.

[Lex P]

I told you to stay broke, bitch.

[Jameela]

Right, Joanne, you get some money. Ad.

[Lex P]

Ad money. Essence Fish, bitch. I wish you would.

[Jameela]

The audacity.

[Lex P]

How dare you. Okay, but I want to talk about too. Like, how did y' all start the podcast? Like, was that like a conversation that was like, this is what we're gonna do, or did it kind of just happen?

[Jameela]

You know, we had went live a couple of times together. It was like a point in time where people were just starting to realize that we knew each other in real life. Like, oh, ok, you guys mean like in real life? We were like, yeah, like.

[Mecca]

Because we would. We would say stories.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

And I would say Jameela, but Jameela. Okay. And she would say Mecca, but. Mecca. And then there was a point where they realized, like, oh, this is the Jameela. Because we had our. We have our platform separately from each other. So then I think once people really realized that we were talking about each Other then we started going live together and those lives were doing numbers.

[Jameela]

So we were like. We had a very specific live where we was talking about Shannon Sharpe the day made that grown up on that.

[Lex P]

Michelle beating them that live pink cheeks up.

[Mecca]

I think at the max. They had like 9,000 people in it.

[Jameela]

Yeah. It was like.

[Mecca]

And we were like.

[Jameela]

And everybody was like, start a podcast. Start a podcast. Literally, we're like, let's do it.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

And once that happened, we just said it. And honestly, that I don't even remember what month that was, but I know one Music Fest was in October. The podcast was started in November. So it was very. It was a very quick turnaround because we ended up. Our producer ended up reaching out to us and was like, I can do this for you. We was like, well, great. Cuz we didn't want to do it on our own. So this.

[Mecca]

I don't know how to edit and stuff.

[Lex P]

Yeah, I mean, we used to edit.

[Jameela]

Well, Lex used to edit the videos in the beginning.

[Lex P]

If you go look at those videos.

[Mecca]

YouTube videos, when y' all was, I'm telling you, child, we used to be in my apartment, in our apartment, like watching it on the big screen and just like talking our own, watching y'.

[Lex P]

All.

[Mecca]

So that's why I was like, this is really cool to see how far y' all have come too, as like a longtime viewer. It's like I used to be at the table in the apartment.

[Jameela]

Girl, it's a crooked camera. That camera used to be crooked in a motherfucker. We didn't care.

[Lex P]

My wigs was already high. I was sitting up even higher because the camera was length.

[Jameela]

Very much homemade.

[Lex P]

So talk about yourselves though, individually, because I know you said a lot of times they group y' all in together and we deal with that a lot as well. So individually, what do y' all want to do outside of, you know, the podcast that y' all have together?

[Mecca]

Well, you should start first.

[Jameela]

Well, so I actually got my degree in film. That's what I really want to do. I have a production company, Ring a Bell Productions. Trademarked. Yes. So I am a director boot. Like, that's what I want to do. I want to create the images and the stories. I'm also into music management. Now I have artists, Audi that I'm managing and pushing her through the streets. So stay on the lookout for her. All things media. Like, I love the entertainment space. I want to really, like, touch on every component. Like, that's really like my love. Like, I love creating, acting, singing, dancing.

[Lex P]

Okay.

[Mecca]

Tubi has their own celebrities. My favorite Tubi celebrity is Bianca Williams, and she's like. She always has, like, blonde hair. She real thick.

[Lex P]

I sounded like a girl. Crystal.

[Mecca]

Her, too. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Lex P]

So.

[Jameela]

And a couple from the couple that live in Detroit.

[Mecca]

Yeah. Detroit has all the good TV movies they do. You gonna die at the end of that movie.

[Lex P]

We might have to go to Detroit.

[Mecca]

No, literally, you will die at the end of that movie.

[Jameela]

But it'll be a good movie.

[Mecca]

The plot's always there. Yes, but I want to do more like that. And it's been cool because Kev on stage has been, like, giving us opportunities to, like, really explore, like, our acting chops and, like, what we want to do. So things are going real well. And also interviewing, like, other celebrities or, like, people influencers, just interviewing in general. Like, we're getting that. Those opportunities now with our podcast. So everything I want to do is kind of, like, happening. So I.

[Jameela]

That's dope.

[Lex P]

I love that, cuz. We just. We saw that y' all were in la. Y' all shot with Kev on stage the day before we came today, ever. So shout out to Kev on stage.

[Jameela]

He is always creating opportunity.

[Mecca]

On Yesterday, and we were talking about that, and that's literally what he was talking about, how he feels like his superpower and his talent is, like, bringing people together and helping them discover their talent. Like, he's really good at that.

[Lex P]

Yeah, he really. We had a ball.

[Mecca]

We didn't Even feel like work.

[Lex P]

Oh, my God.

[Jameela]

It was so fun. And I feel like it was impromptu. It was improv, so, like, we didn't have to, you know, learn any l. We did Churchy. A few years ago. We had to study them lines. It was only three.

[Lex P]

It was only three words, and I still messed it up.

[Jameela]

I kept saying.

[Lex P]

I was like, damn, what was I supposed to. To say?

[Jameela]

Hold on, y'. All.

[Lex P]

Hold on, y'.

[Jameela]

All.

[Mecca]

I was so scared of breaking character. But then once I saw every. Like, he was breaking it, like, made it so easy. Because at first I went there, like, okay, we're gonna be serious. I want. I want to really kill this. Like, when he started cracking up, I said, oh, my God.

[Jameela]

And that was genuinely my goal. I was like, I'm gonna make this break here. Yeah, say some.

[Lex P]

It took us a while, cuz all of us kept like, if he wasn't laughing, Malik was laughing. I was laughing at Drea. It was like, I'm so ready to see it.

[Mecca]

I am too. Cuz we had such, like. I can't stress enough how much fun we had. I didn't. It did not feel like six hours.

[Jameela]

It was a good time.

[Lex P]

Okay, so this episode is sponsored by our good friends at Taylor Port. Okay. And we're going to talk about a poor decision that we made this week. This segment is called Poor Decisions, cuz that's what we do sometimes.

[Jameela]

Okay, absolutely.

[Lex P]

I'll go first. I'll go first with my poor decision. I made this this week. So y' all know, I just purchased a home, and I'm like, you know, decorating and putting a lot of things together. Guys, I had ordered this dining room table, and I thought it was gonna come in, like, a few pieces, and I could just, you know, put it together. When I tell you it had, like, 150 screws, oh, my God. It had about maybe 30 or 40 hinges. It had so many nails, child. I said, you know what? This was my poor decision. Thinking I can put furniture together. It's halfway done, but I'm gonna. I have to go home after. You know, we finish today and finish it. But honestly, guys, when y' all are shopping online for furniture, just go ahead and add that assembly.

[Jameela]

Oh, yeah, just pay the $70. We gonna do that anyway. Yeah.

[Lex P]

I was like, you know what? I got this. I can do it.

[Jameela]

Absolutely not.

[Lex P]

Yeah, that was my poor decision.

[Jameela]

You know, I love a handyman.

[Lex P]

Yeah, we're doing the handy people from now on. What about y'?

[Jameela]

All?

[Lex P]

What's y'? All Poor decision.

[Mecca]

Well, my dog Flex had fleas. And so I don't know where he got them from either, because I'm clean.

[Jameela]

But you didn't get the flavor.

[Lex P]

Now we know Mecca doesn't have fleas, right?

[Mecca]

Well, you know, and I. I thought. And I. He probably got it from outside because he was running around. And it started out he had a little scratch right here. So I assumed when he was running through the sticks and stuff, he had scratched himself. Woke up the next day, he had tore his entire chest up. So I was like. I said, oh, my God. So I'm like, oh, this is.

[Jameela]

Please. And they get to jump.

[Mecca]

So then I was already stressed. I said, I can't put my. He's like a little Shih Tzu. And he's less than a year old. So I'm like, I wanted to be real black. You gotta go in the garage.

[Lex P]

Cause I don't want.

[Mecca]

That's crazy. And it's hot in the summertime in Houston. Like, I can't put him in the garage. But I had to, like, sequester him in like, a corner of the house and like, double fence his stuff. Cause I was like, I can't have that all around the house. But I shaved him myself.

[Jameela]

Oh. Oh, I know. He look a mess.

[Mecca]

My baby looks a mess.

[Lex P]

He's bald right now.

[Mecca]

He is bald and chopped. And he got a little head. That his hair really make him look cute. He looks so crazy.

[Lex P]

But you had to do what you.

[Jameela]

Had to do as a mother.

[Lex P]

Now you gotta send us a picture so we can put on the screen.

[Jameela]

Yes, please.

[Lex P]

We need that.

[Jameela]

We need that.

[Mecca]

Because he looked crazy. I didn't realize his head was so tiny.

[Jameela]

Oh, my God.

[Lex P]

But it didn't help with the fleas.

[Mecca]

It helped. I got him. Someone is at the front line. He took it for every day. And now his hair has been growing out, so he's still red, like where the scab fell off. But now he just look red and a mess.

[Lex P]

Oh, Lord.

[Mecca]

He's all right, though.

[Lex P]

Flex. Chad.

[Jameela]

Damn.

[Mecca]

I named him after Flex. Alexander FLEDAP. And my TikTok followers told him. And I have a video of him on Live being like, well, send me her page.

[Jameela]

She named the dog after, you know, I remember seeing her.

[Lex P]

I'm still a little upset at Flex.

[Jameela]

Michael Jackson movie.

[Lex P]

Cause why did you do that?

[Jameela]

Because you know how I get by Michael. Why did he take that role?

[Mecca]

That was right after Michael died. Everyone was on edge. You have to. Michael Jackson did Stop the World.

[Jameela]

It wasn't all right. It was like, maybe producer should have joined him.

[Mecca]

It went up with some bullshit, you know, Everyone was on edge. We didn't know what was going on.

[Jameela]

I can't lie though. I was thoroughly entertained. Mind you, when I cried, he was playing Michael. I was like, well, hold on. Which Michael? Oh, the every Michael. You're playing every role of Michael. He was. How that's gonna work? I said, oh, powdered donut. Fuck no.

[Lex P]

I knew he thought, this is my Oscar.

[Mecca]

He looked like the mime in church.

[Jameela]

It was terrible. And what stick out in my mind is when his hair caught on fire. That scene was probably the best scene. It was just a mess. A good Kubi mess. That's what I'm like. People don't appreciate a B list black film.

[Lex P]

They don't know. Like, I appreciate, like, what's a role that y' all can think of that's like hilarious as. But they were like so serious because they thought they were probably gonna get an Oscar for this.

[Mecca]

I mean, Monique did get an Oscar.

[Jameela]

I was gonna say Precious, but it was actually really good. But I laughed. But Precious was good. It was good, but it was like, oh, she's so, like. She came out horrible. But I was like, I was so thoroughly enjoyed. And when I watch Precious today, unfortunately, I do laugh. It's just so hysterical to me. Like, damn, it's just sad. It's a sad ass movie. Watching it make me want to cry.

[Lex P]

But when the movie came out, it wasn't fun. We were both.

[Jameela]

It was the second time for me. That first time I was serious.

[Mecca]

I was serious. I remember a white woman turned around and told me, that's not funny. When she. But I was a kid. Because when she threw that shit down the stage, like, you can't take no child to see that. I said, what?

[Jameela]

And she said, this is not funny. Hey, girl, turn around.

[Lex P]

See? Mind your business.

[Jameela]

Turn around.

[Lex P]

Something wrong? I hate to say this because I love this movie, but I think that's how Michael B. Jordan was in the Black Panther. Like, it's not funny. It's a good role. But I think he was like, this is the one.

[Jameela]

I think it was a twist for me.

[Mecca]

I was going to say the lean over dreads.

[Jameela]

The brand of.

[Mecca]

Something about that. Who does the side dreads is a very. They're usually not pro black.

[Lex P]

Yeah. And they have the dangly earrings across.

[Mecca]

They usually date, like white women or.

[Jameela]

Like something like a very.

[Mecca]

That brand of men who have that hairstyle is not. He shouldn't have put that hairstyle on.

[Jameela]

Y', all, I thought that was created for that role. I have never in my life. Oh, I've seen it in real life. I'm thinking of a specific person. He's a church drummer, too, and I hate it. Horrible person. Yes. Any with the dangly ear?

[Mecca]

Why you got that?

[Jameela]

A menace? Yeah. I don't like the fade in the dread. No, I don't like that. Throw them back. Yeah, that taper is going far back.

[Mecca]

It's starting to look like it's proceeding.

[Jameela]

Yo, earring dangling. You can't do nothing but be my home girl. What about a hoop? I like a hoop, though.

[Lex P]

You don't like them hoops?

[Mecca]

I feel like a mj. The hoop is like. It's like a.

[Jameela]

It come with a certain femininity. It can't be big.

[Mecca]

It can't be big. Got to be a little hoop.

[Lex P]

A little. I just take a little stud.

[Jameela]

I look like a diamond.

[Lex P]

It's got to be a real diamond.

[Jameela]

I like the cuz. It give. 1995.

[Lex P]

Okay.

[Jameela]

You know what I mean? Back then, you know, Jalen hurts a good 90s, you know what I'm saying? Respect to the wife, but need that, you know what I mean?

[Mecca]

In a kango.

[Lex P]

That's a black thing right there.

[Jameela]

That he is. That he is.

[Lex P]

Shout out to Jalen Hurts and his beautiful wife and he 1911.

[Mecca]

And, you know, they good at what they do.

[Jameela]

They are, I fear. So what was your bad decision for the week? My bad decision for the week?

[Lex P]

Your poor decision.

[Jameela]

My poor decision. You know, honestly, this was a good week for me. I didn't make any poor decisions this week, but I do make poor decisions in life because I'm. I just kind of, like, don't really think too. Too much about my decisions. I kind of just do it and then be like, oh, I shouldn't have done that. Probably shouldn't have did that.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

Yes. I probably should just kind of stay a little bit more quiet. I. I have a habit of just talking too much. You ever spill somebody's business and you didn't mean to?

[Lex P]

Not somebody else's. My own.

[Jameela]

Oh, okay, everybody. I thought we knew it.

[Lex P]

I thought we knew that you had 14 abortions.

[Jameela]

You know what I'm saying? Like, no, I thought every.

[Mecca]

I thought they was mad at Olandria on Love island for doing. I said, I do that all the time.

[Jameela]

Mad at Alandria for doing that, but she's a Gemini. It's.

[Mecca]

It's.

[Jameela]

It's. It's in our DNA. It's an accident.

[Mecca]

She ain't mean to say the lady had a baby. She. I thought everybody knew.

[Lex P]

I mean, come on now. And then when she said, what was it? When she spilled the tea about it.

[Jameela]

She was like, so you don't mind telling the class?

[Lex P]

Yes. I said, oh, well, Hooda. And what's now that kissing?

[Jameela]

Now, that was intentional. I said that. That was intentional, my HBCU sister.

[Mecca]

But the other times.

[Jameela]

Oh, yeah. I can't be satisfied.

[Mecca]

She was just talking.

[Jameela]

Yes. I spill. I spill my own beans. I don't spill everybody's beans all the time. But sometimes I'm like, damn, I did. You know that? Hold on. And I just keep talking like, hold on. Let me re. Retract. Let me just wind it back.

[Lex P]

Now, see, I do like getting tea. So when sometimes people are telling me, tea, yeah. I'll be acting like I already knew it. So they'll keep going.

[Mecca]

Oh, yes, yes.

[Jameela]

Oh, absolutely.

[Mecca]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

Oh, yeah, girl.

[Jameela]

Right?

[Mecca]

That's. That's. That's an art to getting tea. You gotta be like, oh, yes. And that. Oh, I knew he was like that.

[Jameela]

And my besties, no water Tea. I'm gonna call them every time. I ain't gonna tell nobody. That's who I. And I can't wait. I don't know. And they don't even care. Let me tell you something. They care.

[Mecca]

Guess who I deceive.

[Lex P]

Why do we all say that? Dre? Who am I Tell Drea, right? She don't care about that.

[Jameela]

I get off the phone, girl.

[Mecca]

And it don't matter if I know them or not.

[Lex P]

Every time. Every time. All right, Todd, what are we drinking today? What are mecca.

[Jameela]

I'm doing? My poor decision.

[Lex P]

Oh, what's your poor decision?

[Jameela]

My bad. I don't know.

[Lex P]

That's why I done pulled up too much.

[Jameela]

You did.

[Mecca]

You see, I finished.

[Lex P]

Mine ain't done.

[Jameela]

So I went to Magic City. So we went out the other night, shout out to Ken the man. That's our friend.

[Mecca]

We were just with kids.

[Jameela]

With her? Yes. And Frankie. Frankie. That's my name. I love Frankie. So, yeah, so we went out the other night, we went to Ken show. And then after the show, everybody wanted to go to Magic City. And I should have took my ass home because yesterday we had so many calls. We had so many meetings all day, and I was so hungover. So, yeah, that was my bad decision. I should have took my ass home and been a responsible adult.

[Lex P]

But you made the first meeting. I didn't even go to the first Meeting.

[Jameela]

I did make the first meeting, child.

[Mecca]

I've done that a couple of times on the podcast. Because we have, you know, never leave Houston on a Sunday, right. I don't really be out on Friday or Saturday, but on Sunday after church I will go outside. Then Monday we record on Mondays. It's times where I feel like our followers know when I'm. Because I be. Hello. Yeah, Mecca be in a.

[Jameela]

Sorry.

[Lex P]

And speaking of Magic City, that burger, it was good.

[Mecca]

The best food at the strip club.

[Jameela]

And I've never been to Magic.

[Lex P]

That. Listen, if y' all go to Magic City, please get the cheeseburger.

[Jameela]

And I love a burger.

[Lex P]

And the fries was so good.

[Jameela]

I wanted to have a potato.

[Lex P]

I was in bed, I got on tickets tock and I was saying.

[Jameela]

That'S.

[Lex P]

A black man that made that burger. He was on the grill, baby. With them open toed sandals, he might have a felony.

[Jameela]

Hey.

[Lex P]

Or two. Yes, he knows something.

[Jameela]

He knows with a good pickle. And funny thing is I didn't even know that they really had burgers. I really just said that because I was trying to force her to come. Cause she was trying to go home. So I was like, yeah girl, you can get a burger. They got burgers and beans.

[Lex P]

You don't want to reel me in.

[Mecca]

And that's how you going to get, get me. Cuz if there's food at the club and good food at the club, cuz that's the one thing I will give Houston.

[Jameela]

The food at the club be good.

[Mecca]

So that it, it's like, you know what? I will come. I, I can get something to eat and go home. Yeah, you, you going to get up. But you will eat a good meal.

[Lex P]

Now I did get lit, but once my burger came out, I called that Uber.

[Jameela]

I said I need to enjoy this.

[Mecca]

Yeah baby.

[Lex P]

I was probably to be alone in.

[Jameela]

My room tearing that burger, tearing it off. I need to go to an Atlanta strip club. Cuz my strip club. Except experience, I fear. I said, well sisters, did y' all want to be here and dancing? I'm not entertained. They wasn't even there properly. I could have clapped.

[Lex P]

You gotta go to Magic City on a Monday because it's still popping.

[Mecca]

Okay. I, I appreciate the acrobatics of stripping. You know, like the girls who are real athletes. So you have to be athletic to do some of that. You do jiggling. I could, I could jiggle. Yeah.

[Jameela]

That's the Atlanta thing though. They Be doing the acrobatics out here in Houston. They just be doing the little one league.

[Mecca]

I went to be live before. I think it's close. Closed up now, but they was in there just jiggling. Yeah, it's gone.

[Jameela]

You know, I'm from Houston, girl. Oh, really? What part?

[Mecca]

I used to live over there on Briar Forest in the trenches at the Abbey.

[Jameela]

Yes, girl. Born and raised.

[Mecca]

Yes, I know. That's right.

[Lex P]

But I feel like stripping now is like. It's getting good again.

[Jameela]

Okay.

[Lex P]

For a while, like, the money was dried up. The girls weren't really trying. They started doing only fans and going online. But now it's like, people want to be outside. Outside again.

[Mecca]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

I think I went on a bad day because the girls in New York at the strip club and it was the club that Cardi B used to strip at, so I was excited. Yeah, they was in there like, yeah.

[Lex P]

No, I said, but enjoy it, baby.

[Jameela]

I want to see you do something.

[Lex P]

She was mad that she was at.

[Jameela]

Work, and I was just like this. Well, give me something now.

[Lex P]

Hold on.

[Jameela]

A little change.

[Lex P]

Something else.

[Jameela]

You throwing this? What I came for?

[Mecca]

I went to Tootsies in Atlanta and did see. And this was right around the time Miami said, cuban girls at tootsies or some. On the song or Spanish. So I was like, we wanted to go there for Elantra's birthday. My homegirl. We did see a Spanish woman at Tootsies put something in her. Her vagina and light it on fire. I was so scared. She's gonna get burned.

[Lex P]

I like that.

[Mecca]

I was so scared I wouldn't get burned because she about as far as the camera. Oh, I saw a lifting shot at Coochie. It shot. And I said, you gots to give her money.

[Jameela]

She does them kids.

[Mecca]

You got to give that. L. That was an actual.

[Jameela]

That would have scared me, but I would have been. You know what I'm saying?

[Mecca]

But I was concerned when I saw. When I saw her lighting shit up, I was a little concerned, but I.

[Jameela]

Feel like that's what you need to. You should risk your life for this money.

[Lex P]

Risk your life.

[Jameela]

Well, you already butt off naked. I want to see something.

[Lex P]

Do y' all remember back in the day when Tip drill was doing a thing and she fell and hit her head and she got really, really hurt.

[Jameela]

She wasn't.

[Mecca]

Her neck broke off. That I saw, because when her and.

[Jameela]

Jocelyn got going back and forth one.

[Mecca]

Time, she brought it up, you know Jocelyn.

[Jameela]

Okay, you broke neck. Yes, exactly. I thought you don't need to go back to the check. You don't need to buy that guy. You can't fell out the pub. Literally.

[Mecca]

I think that was the argument.

[Jameela]

Yes. Look, I remember over here talking about the video.

[Lex P]

What?

[Jameela]

The tip drill video?

[Lex P]

Oh, no, that too, cuz.

[Jameela]

That too. Y' all was up in there like I had my hand on the back just in case.

[Lex P]

What was it a show called Bet.

[Jameela]

Uncut, Uncut, Uncut Bet, Uncut.

[Lex P]

Nelly changed the game. But you know what's so crazy? Because that video Tip drill, it was like a big deal. It was like on cnn. Such a big deal. But now if you watch it, it's.

[Jameela]

So like, it's not as bad as. It's really not. I'm not that bad. It was just a little ass cracking swiping.

[Lex P]

But I way social media is now and what we see, see, just like you said, scrolling Twitter. Like somebody said something like because a new law passed in Georgia and it's like you can't look at certain porn websites.

[Jameela]

Yeah, I don't care.

[Lex P]

It's on Twitter.

[Mecca]

Oh, texting like that.

[Jameela]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mecca]

You can't get no porn.

[Lex P]

And they're like, I don't care. It's on Twitter anyway. And I'm like, pornhub is blocked in Georgia.

[Jameela]

I heard. How you know? How you know is it? I feel like you a grown lady. I got a roll. Pull it up right now. Let's, you know, have a thing or two. I don't think sometimes you don't feel like calling, right?

[Mecca]

You already gotta go on that drawer on the nightstand.

[Jameela]

Gotta get on there.

[Lex P]

Speaking of nightstand, when I tell you when I had to package, y' all know I just moved. I had to hurry up and clean out that drawer.

[Jameela]

Uh huh. Before they come, I stuffed it in.

[Lex P]

A little Louis Vuitton shoe bag.

[Mecca]

I know y' all never see a thing.

[Jameela]

You should have just taped it up.

[Lex P]

No, I just. I wanted it with me. Cause I didn't want it to get lost.

[Jameela]

You needed it to merge time. I need it. I need to know where it's at. That's the first box I'mma pack.

[Mecca]

Cause you know, I need to know.

[Lex P]

Where my.

[Jameela]

Stressful day.

[Mecca]

Oh, I'm stressed.

[Lex P]

I need to know where my things are.

[Jameela]

Okay, so ta, what are we drinking this week? This name is perfect because I already see where this conversation is going. This one is called Unhinged and Immoral. I'm coming off a weekend in Turk.

[Lex P]

So that's exactly what I was doing this weekend.

[Jameela]

Child, you had A bargain.

[Lex P]

I had a bar.

[Jameela]

It was so good, I didn't even.

[Lex P]

Put it on Instagram. I know. I said, my girl ain't posting. I know. That's right.

[Jameela]

Okay, so everyone has a different spirit of choice, literally. We got some whiskey. We have some tequila. We have some vodka in this. We have some grapefruit juice, a little bit of lemon juice, and then we use a hot honey syrup, so you're probably getting a little bit of that spice on the back end. And then we garnished it. Then we garnished it with a lime wheel. So this is the unhinged changed and the immoral. Cheers, y'. All.

[Mecca]

Cheers. I don't have nothing to cheers.

[Jameela]

You want another one?

[Mecca]

Can I get another one?

[Lex P]

Absolutely.

[Jameela]

You want a shot, too?

[Lex P]

Call it up. You want a shot, too?

[Mecca]

Well, now, you don't got me drinking. I'll take the shot.

[Lex P]

Come on, now.

[Jameela]

No, not for you. No, she said she can't do the shot. She need a little juice in her drink. No, no, no.

[Lex P]

And y' all know our drink of the week. Me, Andrea. We got a little something different because it's sponsored by Taylor. All right, y', all, this one right here is for the baddies who like a little kick.

[Jameela]

It's giving trap and tonic.

[Lex P]

Bold, bright, and unapologetically fun. Just like us.

[Jameela]

We mixing Taylor port with some fresh lime tonic water.

[Lex P]

And you already know we had to hit the rim with cayenne or a little tahin for that spicy ATL twist.

[Jameela]

It's cute, it's bold, and, baby, it's got a little bite.

[Lex P]

Just how we like it. It Cheers, period.

[Jameela]

Cheers.

[Lex P]

Shout out to the people at Taylor Port. Love y' all down. All right. Okay.

[Jameela]

All right, so now it's time to get into topic number one. So for topic number one, we wanted to talk to y' all about what is the line between being honest online or just maybe even in general being honest and being an. It's a thin line, I tell you that. But I think that it's all about intention. I feel like intention leads everything because you can be honest without being a. Yeah, you didn't have to tell me I was ugly without. You know what I'm saying? You could say it. Maybe let's twist it a little bit different. Like, tell me to, you know, give me some constructive criticism. And I think it's all about the intention and what your goal is, like, because also, everything don't need to be said. Like, even if you feel like that outfit is ugly, if you feel like I don't look the best today. Did I ask right? I didn't ask. So maybe you don't need to say that. Exactly. So it's like think about the intention. What's the purpose of you saying this anyway? And then go from there. And I feel like you be straight. Okay. What you think?

[Mecca]

Well, I, I have a little bit thicker skin because I have mean aunties. And I feel like there's a difference between mean aunties and nasty aunties. And like when I say mean, I just feel like they not so friendly. They're very blunt. They're very like, this is this or so I had my auntie say I had done this little updo on TikTok and it was like Pamela Anderson inspired. You know what I'm talking about?

[Lex P]

Okay. The little messy.

[Mecca]

Little messy. And she was in my comments talking about your hair look drunk. Now mind you, I just.

[Lex P]

She ate you up.

[Jameela]

I feel she ate me up because.

[Mecca]

It'S like the hair did look drunk. But I feel like that kind of describes the type of vibe of like her in terms of being straightforward. If you're very sensitive, you would take it away. So I feel like some of the stuff I don't be taking to heart immediately, but I can tell when like you're purposely trying to be nasty. And I think when you start digging at people's like character.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

And not just like what they put on the flow. Now you being, well, now you know you being nasty.

[Jameela]

Yeah. Cuz I think a lot of the time people use like being real as an excuse to be mean. Like, well, I'm just being real, girl.

[Mecca]

I'm just feeling smart. I'm just giving constructive criticism.

[Jameela]

But who asked your ass? What have you constructed? I don't believe you're a liar.

[Lex P]

It be the main people like that'll say stuff about like the way maybe we dress or do our makeup or do our hair. Then I go to your page and.

[Jameela]

I'm like, just a damn mess.

[Mecca]

Isn't that what my brother was saying during my moment?

[Jameela]

And it said shut up.

[Mecca]

He was on there. So the thing is I've always, I've always dressed like. I've always gone through my phases. I had a stud phase. I had an all black face.

[Lex P]

Yes. I saw those pictures.

[Mecca]

I just always been doing what I want to do. Again, I come from a very blunt, mean family. So you saying I can't dress ain't never really make me feel no type of way. So my brother came on and was like, we've been telling this Bitch, she can't dress. I done went to y' all pages, and y' all look a goddamn mess. Like, so he going off on them, and it's like, you go on their pages and you're like, you know, I got this from City Trends, because this is City Trends outfit.

[Lex P]

We was both there.

[Mecca]

We was both there.

[Jameela]

I know.

[Mecca]

That was in my car, too. I know it. And that's why you know when you can call it out. So it's like people be faking the funk on, like, wanting to call you out, but they sitting there in the same shit.

[Jameela]

So that's how I feel, too.

[Lex P]

Like, I feel like every time it's somebody that's talking about, like, my hair, the way I look, the way I.

[Mecca]

Wigs be a mess.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

Why do you think that you have the credentials to critique me?

[Jameela]

Hello. Don't be in the mouth.

[Lex P]

I never said I'm a hair guru. I never said I was a fashionista. I never said that. I just do what I feel good in and what works for me. I'm not here to be. You know what I'm saying? Naomi Campbell. I'm here to make y' all laugh and entertain y' all and talk about shit.

[Mecca]

And then I also think the way that we present stuff, we always. Every video is going to have a comedic element to it. Yeah, for sure. So when people take things, like, even the video that prompted the Mecca Kane dress.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

It was clearly silly. It was. And I made sure to say, am I judging y'?

[Lex P]

All?

[Mecca]

Like, I'm the fashion police. Yes. Do I even have an outfit?

[Lex P]

No.

[Mecca]

I thought we was all gonna get the key.

[Lex P]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mecca]

We didn't all get the key.

[Lex P]

Get the key.

[Mecca]

Like I was saying, I don't have an outfit. I'm just, you know, doing what everybody does. Looking at the outfits, being like, oh, that's cute. That's not.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

And it gets. I feel like people. They don't see us as people at a certain point.

[Jameela]

Yeah. They don't.

[Mecca]

They don't see you as a human being with feelings and all this type of stuff. So that's why I don't take things to heart anymore.

[Jameela]

And for me, if you. If you gonna try to read me, it better be funny. It better be good. Cuz if it's funny. Cause I'm about to. On that one. I will. I will always laugh at a good little joke. But if it's not funny, I'm on your ass. You better be bad.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

And they usually aren't out there nine times. Out of 10, nine and a half times. Yeah. They not.

[Lex P]

They're not. Somebody said, I was on Facebook the other day because y' all know I'm a Facebooker now.

[Mecca]

Same. I'm trying to be more into Facebook.

[Lex P]

Facebook got that.

[Mecca]

Check the thing. Yes. I'd be on there to watch fights.

[Lex P]

Excuse me.

[Mecca]

I was.

[Jameela]

Now, see, we ain't said nothing about that.

[Lex P]

Now, see, we talk about getting to the bag. You talking about. Well, I like to see them.

[Mecca]

You know, I'm from Sacramento. At the end of the day, we like them baby mamas be fighting over one.

[Lex P]

Oh, my God.

[Mecca]

Live. And I'll be.

[Lex P]

That's how my best friend is with Birmingham B. Lynn. She be on her personal page.

[Mecca]

Yes. Yes.

[Lex P]

Why she be, like, on live, girl? She will have her headphones in.

[Jameela]

I'm crying, listening.

[Lex P]

And be like, get them. Yes.

[Jameela]

Why they be fighting, like.

[Lex P]

Or if they be on live, going off about something. She would put her headphones in. Like, she packed literally, like, half of my apartment because she put them headphones on and she was listening to somebody live. She was like, I know that's real, girl. I said, what is going on? But Facebook is messy. But that check.

[Mecca]

Yeah, just post about that check yesterday.

[Jameela]

Roll it up. K told us a long time ago, like, Facebook definitely got the coin.

[Mecca]

Facebook, make a valley. I made a page after Kev said, make a pay.

[Lex P]

Yes, the money is on there. But somebody said I was on there and I had made a video and I was just, like, talking. They said, lex, you need to smile. You look meaner than a junkyard dog.

[Jameela]

I said, you accepted that?

[Lex P]

You.

[Jameela]

You know what a junkyard dog look like?

[Lex P]

I was crying, like, stuff like that.

[Jameela]

Yeah. Like, it's funny.

[Lex P]

Like, I was like, okay, I'll take that. But it's like, when people just get mean and nasty, I'm like, you're just trying to have a moment. What are we doing here?

[Jameela]

You know, sometimes we do be seeing comments where we be like, okay, yeah, that was funny. You got us. But, like, I think some people's soul mission is to get online and spew negativity and be rude and be nasty and, like, make other people feel. Or try to make other people feel bad about themselves because they're miserable and, like, we ain't dealing with it.

[Lex P]

I always said if I can go to your Timeline and I can name 10 things you hate, but I can't name 10 things you love, you probably need to do some reevaluation on what you're focusing on. You know what I'm saying, like, I can name two artists you don't like.

[Jameela]

Cause that's all you do.

[Lex P]

Two content creators you don't like. I can name drinks you don't like, food you don't like. But I can't say nothing that you.

[Jameela]

Do and say your name at this point. Hey. Oh, baby, I'll be having an Abby.

[Mecca]

Sorry.

[Lex P]

You know what I'm saying? You don't be having an Abby.

[Mecca]

No, I said the trolls.

[Lex P]

Oh, they'll. It'd just be a blank pack. It just be blank. It just be blank. Pay me on Private. That's what gets me.

[Jameela]

Yeah, open that. Post that picture.

[Mecca]

I don't jump.

[Lex P]

You see, it was some girl that had commented on some. She was like, this is probably the stupidest podcast I've ever seen. These dumb hoes. And she was just going in. I went to her page and she had a podcast.

[Jameela]

Oh, of course she did. But it usually be that way. Like they're usually trying to get into the entertainment or media space when they criticizing you. Right. If you.

[Lex P]

If you were nice, I could have a nice lady this weak ass topics. I could have helped you out, bitch.

[Jameela]

Hello.

[Mecca]

Something interesting.

[Lex P]

You know what I'm saying?

[Mecca]

And don't be having no personality, because that's just stale. You know what? The compliment that Jamila and I get a lot and I can already tell from talking to y' all well before the camera started rolling, is that. Oh, you really act like that.

[Lex P]

Oh, yeah.

[Jameela]

Oh, yeah. We really the same.

[Mecca]

I was gonna say from. Even from people. Like, you know, when you see people you've grown up with or went to college, I be telling people, you really act like that. You've always been like that. And you know, the idea that people have a personality online, which I don't think there's anything wrong with like a Persona, but it should. You need to be able to maintain it across all platforms.

[Lex P]

Absolutely.

[Jameela]

I think for me, it's weird when you meet people in person and they're nothing like their online Persona. Like, it's a little scary. Like, because I've met people where like online, they have so much to say. They so rah rah, rah with the sheets and then you meet them in person and they so quiet and reserved and it's like, wow. So you really just sit around like curating content all day.

[Lex P]

Or they'll be copying off of somebody. They. You reposted something. That was like. The best thing about somebody copying off of you is they can't make a move until you Do.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

So it's like, they'll not be doing anything, cuz you ain't posted nothing yet. I agree. You know what I'm saying?

[Mecca]

Y.

[Jameela]

So do y' all ever, like, with all of the criticism and backlash that I think we all get online, does that ever make y', all, like, shy away from giving your opinion on certain topics? I feel like y' all both gonna say no, but I had to ask.

[Mecca]

Well, okay, now that we're at the point where we're. We have a little bit of legitimacy, because this past year, we did south by Southwest, we've done essence, we did the Urban League. We're actually on things like Poor minds now. So I actually do have to be aware that I might run. I might run this legit.

[Jameela]

Oh, y' all like that.

[Mecca]

Y' all been legit. So it's like, now I'm more aware of. Let me watch what I say, because I might fuck around and meet this person. I might. Whatever, whatever. But if it's something that I really believe, you know, ethics wise, I'll speak on it. And always, if they come up to me and say, why you say that? Well, I said it because that's how I felt. But I don't just be, you know, five years ago when I never thought that this was going to go this way. Talking out my ass. I'm like, I'm not going to meet you.

[Lex P]

Like, I'm so glad my old Twitter got deleted.

[Mecca]

Same Even took my old Twitter.

[Jameela]

I said, that was good. That was. I don't really like, like, shy away from things. I've always been very, like, I know. I know what this is gonna do. Let me think about who this is going to impact. I've always been very, like, cognizant of that. I think more so. It's like, let me really think about the purpose. I'm saying this in. Like, how does it relate to my brand? How does it relate to anything? Like, am I adding anything of value? That's really more so. But it's not because of the people, right? Because of me. And, like, what I want to give out to the world, like, some topics I just don't touch because it's like, I don't have nothing. I don't have nothing nice to say. Like, I've had so many people be like, oh, I want you to talk about this and talk about that. No, you don't.

[Lex P]

Right?

[Jameela]

You ain't gonna like nothing I got to say about this. So I'm gonna just keep it to myself in that Group chat. Yeah, it gets real wicked in the group chat.

[Mecca]

In the group chat for as much shit as, like, our friend group the Super 5 got, I'm really thankful for.

[Lex P]

I remember that too.

[Mecca]

Yeah, I'm really thankful for them because it has become such an outlet where we can. I don't have to say anything crazy online because it's a group of creators. In this group chat, I'd be like, y' all see that I don't have nothing nice to say. Exactly. I'm putting everything in the chat. And y' all get why. I'm not saying I have to explain, like, what's going on, but who is.

[Jameela]

In the Super 5?

[Lex P]

Because I was getting confused at first.

[Mecca]

It's always been seven.

[Jameela]

You tell me.

[Mecca]

We never knew who exactly.

[Lex P]

That's because every time I would see a video, because Auntie, like, I am not. I'm on TikTok. But I'm like, not. I don't be knowing who everybody is.

[Jameela]

I think that was, like. The funny part about it is when that whole name was, like, started, nobody ever confirmed, like, the girl who said it, she never, like, listened for five. And people were in the comments just throwing their own daggers. Like, I think it's this person. This person. So it's like, if you gonna add me in there, I'm gonna just take it and run with it and laugh. Cause it's like, okay. I guess I am like Ms. Super 5. But I mean.

[Mecca]

And even the graphic we created, it was like 70 people on the graphic. Yeah. That was also always a part of the joke. It was always so much more than five people.

[Lex P]

Okay. Cause I was like, who the hell?

[Mecca]

We don't know. The Super 5 is who you want the Super 5 to be honest.

[Lex P]

Okay, that makes sense now.

[Jameela]

Cause I was like, pick your members.

[Mecca]

Pick your members.

[Lex P]

I can't find a Super 5. I was just a scrolling.

[Jameela]

I'm searching. And he's like, we didn't create that. So it's like you did. You know what I'm saying? Right. The Internet created this idea. So it's like, I don't know. Whoever you want it to be, baby. If you want me to be the Super 5 today, I will. As long as the check clears.

[Lex P]

I know that's right. See, I like that little TikTok check, too. I get to talk. And I started yapping, too.

[Jameela]

Yeah, I be on TikTok. I be trying to get on TikTok a little bit more now, girl. I know, girl.

[Mecca]

I be trying.

[Jameela]

I be trying to do my little one too. So now we gonna get into topic number two, which is really not a topic. It's more of a game. So we're gonna play Would you rather Creator edition. Okay, so we gonna ask y' all some questions and see what y' all think. So would you rather go viral for a hot take or a wardrobe malfunction? A hot take.

[Mecca]

I was on the hot take. We go viral for hot takes all the time. And that could be good or bad.

[Jameela]

Okay. Yeah.

[Mecca]

A wardrobe malfunction can never be flipped as good, I feel like.

[Jameela]

And it. It'll die soon. It's like, who cares?

[Mecca]

After a while, I feel like my titty falling out. Well, now you just have seen the pink.

[Lex P]

Yeah, yeah. My titty always is out. Like, yeah, always.

[Jameela]

I was gonna say you always have wardrobe. I'm sorry.

[Lex P]

I mean, I just like a real titty.

[Jameela]

I'm a lady. They'd be out every time. They're like, is that your areola or shadow, baby? Probably Ariela. I'm not gonna lie. After I breastfed, I don't care.

[Lex P]

Who cares?

[Jameela]

It might. You might see a little bit of.

[Mecca]

Nip, shout out to the people who always DM us like, yo. I'm like, baby, hey, baby, I don't.

[Jameela]

Know if you know this, but that nipple out, and I'm okay. It's all right. We all got wounds at this point, baby.

[Lex P]

I ain't taking it down.

[Jameela]

I don't know.

[Lex P]

I just feel like there was one video, one poor mind's episode, and, like, my nipple was out. And I mean, it was so many people like, oh, my God, Lex. Oh, my God. I'm like, y', all, it's a nipple.

[Mecca]

Does y' all never see a nipple?

[Lex P]

Like, it's a nipple. Like, I understand. Thank you.

[Jameela]

But to me, it's like if I.

[Lex P]

Have a little nipsey slip, it's just never been that serious. I don't know. It's because I used to work in a strip club, so I see naked bodies all the time. I'm just like, it's a body.

[Mecca]

It's okay.

[Jameela]

It's literally from me. Breast me. Like, I've always been very kind of like, don't look at me. Yeah, don't look at me. I'm modest, I'm shy. But something about being pregnant and everybody looking at your open puss.

[Lex P]

Yeah, it changes.

[Jameela]

It's like, you know what? Maybe this nipple being out right now ain't that big of a deal. I used to breastfeed in public. Past that hungry titty halfway Out. I don't care. I really didn't give a damn. I was breastfeeding everywhere.

[Lex P]

You gotta do what you gotta do.

[Jameela]

I did not care.

[Lex P]

And I done busted that pussy open a few times. I never had a baby. It ain't no big deal to me. It ain't no big deal.

[Mecca]

Off the Taylor port.

[Jameela]

You know what I'm saying? That teleport gonna have you teleporting.

[Lex P]

Okay. Would you rather accidentally post a thirst trap to your family group chat or on ig. Close friends.

[Mecca]

Close friends. I was gonna say. Yeah.

[Jameela]

Is it a nude? Because let's.

[Mecca]

Let's clarify.

[Lex P]

Yeah, I mean, a thirst trap. I would say. Yeah, let's say a news.

[Jameela]

Okay. Oh, now that changes.

[Mecca]

Close friends.

[Jameela]

Close friends still.

[Lex P]

Yes, close friends still. Because it's literally my room.

[Mecca]

You want to hear something funny, though? When we was in college, I was with this dude, and I had my icloud on my phone attached to my iPad at home. I left my iPad at home in California with mama and my brother. So this boy sent me a video of him and like, oh, this Listen, this is back. We were just coming off of grinds on me. He was like in some tight ass ithaca type boxers on. On hard grinding on the sink. Sent that shit to me. All of a sudden, my mama started calling me. So I'm not thinking anything of it because I haven't put two and two together. I've answered the phone. It's my mom and my brother. Now, mind you, my mom's a church lady, so. And my brother's in the background.

[Jameela]

And.

[Mecca]

She'S like, in the front. They're in the car. They haven't even gone in the house. I don't even know why they had the iPad in the car with them. But she's like, mecca, who is this young man? What is going on? Is there anything you need to tell me? And I'm like, what are you talking about? They're doing, like, that grinding in the bathroom. I'm like, how y' all see that? He like, nigga, your iclouds connect to the phone. And so I was just like, yeah, I didn't think that was cute.

[Jameela]

She like, I would hope not.

[Lex P]

But did you think he was cute for real?

[Mecca]

No, I didn't. I didn't. Because I was like, I only like a certain brand of dick pic. I do like a nut video from time to time.

[Jameela]

Me too.

[Lex P]

Exactly.

[Mecca]

I'm a grown lady.

[Jameela]

We the same tribe. I love a nut video.

[Mecca]

But I feel like when you're doing too Much. Trying to. To position the member. Now we're doing too much.

[Jameela]

Now you're choreographing a number.

[Mecca]

Let's just, like, when you're laying it on the sink. Don't like that.

[Lex P]

Okay. I don't like to see their feet and.

[Jameela]

Why are you dancing all that? I don't like it. Then just stand still. Yeah.

[Mecca]

You know, or let it slang.

[Jameela]

Strokey. Jelani clocked my nudes one time, and it was so stupid. It wasn't even a full nude. This was. I was literally in high school. Shouldn't have even been doing it. I didn't know there was a feature for, like, your iPhone to connect, like, multiple numbers.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

First of all, Jelani is slick as my little brother. He had that for a couple of weeks and was reading messages. Didn't say until I posted up in my pants. So I'm in the. In the mirror, just with painting, mind you. Panties was big.

[Lex P]

Yeah. I ain't got no thong.

[Jameela]

I ain't had no thumb back then. Yeah.

[Mecca]

Period.

[Jameela]

It's gonna fuck them up, though. And so I kind of wrote the panties to the side a little bit to make it look like a little. A little baby panties. And I. You know, it did. I didn't have titties back then, so I. You know, you had to hit. Oh, yeah. You had to do the. I mean, the pose was acrobatic. I don't even think that responded. But I did send that picture. Next thing I know, Jelani comes in. I think there's a problem. I'm like, what happened? I don't know what I did, but you. You've been reading my messages for two weeks.

[Lex P]

He said. He took it.

[Jameela]

I said, oh, give me that goddamn phone. Figure this out.

[Mecca]

He said, okay.

[Jameela]

I. I did too much. I was so embarrassed, but I was like, oh, my God. Like, that's when I was real thirsty for the boys. Oh, baby. I wanted every last one of them in high school.

[Lex P]

A good nude.

[Jameela]

I love a good nude.

[Mecca]

When you wasn't.

[Jameela]

You know how.

[Mecca]

When you were in high school, and it was just like you were overly horny. I remember one time I walked in on my brother jacking off, and it was like, oh, my God.

[Jameela]

Oh, my God.

[Lex P]

It was so disturbing.

[Jameela]

I was.

[Mecca]

And the part that has disturbed me to this day. Day, when I walked in, he didn't stop. He said, ah, go away.

[Lex P]

You supposed to put both in.

[Jameela]

You supposed to be like this. Hold on.

[Mecca]

The fact that you kept it going crazy.

[Jameela]

Cause now we both gotta die. Wait.

[Lex P]

Got to see it. He said.

[Jameela]

I was almost there. You. You better close that down immediately. Now horny needs. I scarred you.

[Mecca]

No, I like to this day, I be.

[Jameela]

You know how you randomly have a flashback?

[Lex P]

Oh, my God.

[Mecca]

I like. And I just like, you're so crazy for.

[Jameela]

Like, why would you keep going? Oh, my God.

[Mecca]

Like, he said, what y' all got to say? Well, had to get it done. It was almost there.

[Jameela]

I mean, horniness in high school was on a different level. I remember when I discovered the tub Fy. I wish I could get that virginity back. Sometimes I feel like that virginity coochie don't it. It beat it differently. Like the thump used to get in that pants. Virginity. I'm like, wait a minute. You can never just stand there and feel good.

[Lex P]

You know what I mean?

[Jameela]

I was just standing there like, yeah, what everybody? Yes.

[Lex P]

You cross your legs a certain way.

[Jameela]

Girl be sitting there squeezing. Wait a minute, child.

[Lex P]

That little squeeze.

[Mecca]

I was at church three times, so I would wait for new boys to come.

[Jameela]

I'm telling you, that boy, it was different. Now you got to do a little twist and combo in front. Just give me that virginity back.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

I don't even wanna be touched no more. I used to just stand there and stare like I used to. I told Kev on stage, you know, I used to make love to the wall back in my day.

[Lex P]

Love to the wall.

[Jameela]

You know, this is before I had a man. I was just fantasizing. So I just. You create characters on the wall. I be like, this is Chris Brown and I'm giving him the business on that wall. I was making out with my wall.

[Lex P]

Just, you know, on the wall.

[Jameela]

And I would hug myself and grab that ass in the back and just.

[Lex P]

And you a cuppet. You a cuppet.

[Jameela]

And I just. I had several men's in high school. From that alone, I had several men's. I was anybody I wanted.

[Lex P]

Well, you know, now they do the AI thing.

[Jameela]

I didn't need in the way. I didn't need that in high school.

[Mecca]

Had imagination.

[Jameela]

My imagination was amazing. I have.

[Mecca]

What is that?

[Jameela]

What?

[Mecca]

It's a name for it when you can think of, like, the scenarios and you see the pictures in your head.

[Lex P]

Oh, no, I do that.

[Jameela]

What is that called? Spatial synesthesia, I believe. Yeah.

[Mecca]

I was. My man was Little fizz Usher. And I used to be like, okay, I'm going to. To sleep.

[Lex P]

Yes, you have a imagination. Like, I used to always do that. I used to have, like, this imagination. I used to make this story over, like, Nelly like riding through my neighborhood and his tour bus broke down. He had to like come to my house and like, oh, I'm going to wait here for my bus to get fixed. And we would just make sweet love all night long.

[Jameela]

And you would just picture it in your head every day.

[Mecca]

Nelly was fine back in the day.

[Jameela]

Nelly was Nelly fine.

[Mecca]

I know it's fine now.

[Lex P]

Almost. My gosh. I used to be obsessed with Nelly.

[Mecca]

But being obsessed with Nelly made sense. Like sometimes people say who they was obsessed with be like, I don't see it.

[Lex P]

I'm like, who Professor Ogilvy?

[Mecca]

Yes.

[Jameela]

Who the obsessed with Professor Ogilvie. I've never heard somebody say that. It must have been you who said you. Who? Who said that?

[Lex P]

Who said that?

[Jameela]

Nikki Parker, please.

[Mecca]

It needs to be some Alize in this cup.

[Jameela]

He used to actually always piss me off. Cuz I'm like, you're really not even at se for Nikki.

[Lex P]

I mean, he used to be doing her bad.

[Jameela]

I love that episode where she goes, but Nikki Parker don't love you. I said yes finally.

[Lex P]

Only for her to marry him on the a series finale.

[Jameela]

She did. But the that she married before him. He was the one that was real fine. He was. He was Professor Og.

[Lex P]

He had his hair.

[Jameela]

Them damn twisties. I hated them. 2000 twisties.

[Mecca]

They were like caterpillars. Yes.

[Jameela]

That's. Why do you have parts?

[Mecca]

I didn't like those.

[Jameela]

They used to roll it with their combs.

[Mecca]

I remember, you know when TikTok be trying to make you seem problematic, I said one time, I can't commit to a man who wants to do starter locks. Cause it's just too much commitment. And they were like, this is texturous.

[Jameela]

Texturous.

[Mecca]

Cause I said, I prefer low cut season with the deep waves. And I said, well, hold on. First of all, I have taco roots myself. This is a wig. But secondly, people with lighter textured hair.

[Jameela]

Can'T they waves be thick, it be zoop.

[Mecca]

And then just two waves. You have to have a four texture to have a good wave.

[Lex P]

Yeah, you gotta. I hate when like looser texture and they take off.

[Jameela]

Take it off, take it off.

[Mecca]

You just wasted everybody's time.

[Lex P]

You just wasted everybody's time.

[Mecca]

And when y' all get locks, it look a mess.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

Some styles are meant for black people.

[Jameela]

Them Puerto Rican boys just need ponytails, please. They do. They need a little slick back pony are. You know when they be shaving the sides? Yes.

[Mecca]

Little wet and wavy like you out the shower. That's what You. That's where you live.

[Lex P]

Because y' all remember that trend, and it was just like the black girlfriend effects. And it was like a white man. All of a sudden, they got a bus because they got like, come on, Daniel.

[Jameela]

I said, okay.

[Lex P]

You don't need a fade.

[Mecca]

I feel like you got with Alandria.

[Jameela]

I don't know, though. Cause I like a white man with a buzz cut. Do you? That old school.

[Mecca]

Just.

[Jameela]

I like that.

[Lex P]

I think that I meant to say, like, a fade, though. Like that man that. That Tamar used to date, he has a fade.

[Mecca]

Like Travis Kelsey when he was dating Kayla.

[Jameela]

Yeah, okay.

[Mecca]

Like that.

[Jameela]

See? Yeah. I feel like that's where they call.

[Mecca]

Trey and, like, him.

[Jameela]

They'll trick you because you think. You think that's wigga. Soon as he grow that hair out, he's back to a Caucasian man looking like he got a pickup truck.

[Mecca]

Oh, my God.

[Jameela]

See how they got you? Yeah. And they gonna age differently.

[Lex P]

And don't let me shave that beard.

[Jameela]

It's over if they shave that beard immediately. Police. That is not. That is not the white man I fell in love with. I'll be damned if he shade that beard with me. Oh, now we. You know, that's what I'm saying.

[Lex P]

I need to see, like, you know how men be like. I need to see you without the makeup. That's fine. I need to see you without that beard.

[Jameela]

Yes.

[Mecca]

Be looking a bit different.

[Lex P]

Yes, A lot different.

[Jameela]

A lot different without the beard.

[Mecca]

I don't even like to. I used to be into, like, the whole beard, but it just. No, let me just see what you look like.

[Jameela]

I need a little something small. I like a. I love the. I mean, it's cool. Yes.

[Lex P]

But I'm more so into, like, a clean cut. Just a little.

[Mecca]

Yeah. I think I like a clean Flavor Saver right there. Yeah, a Flavor Saver's crazy.

[Jameela]

Yeah, but see, the whole beard be a flavor Saver. It can't be for some flavor. I need that beard to be exactly.

[Lex P]

You can't see what they face look like for real.

[Jameela]

But you gotta. But that's why you gotta know. Look at the pictures.

[Mecca]

Y' all don't ask for baby pictures, right? I be like, can't see pre nigga.

[Jameela]

Let me show you.

[Mecca]

[Jameela]

I had a gap and a gap.

[Mecca]

I had that too.

[Lex P]

Yeah, I had a cat. But underbody's crazy body is a little.

[Mecca]

Crazy like that in the pictures. My mom used to think I was doing it on purpose. It's like your bottom lip look big. Stop smiling like that. I'm not doing it on purpose, please.

[Jameela]

Oh, middle school was a time we used to be thinking we were so cute and grown.

[Mecca]

That was when Lil Wayne dropped lollipop. I thought I was so grown.

[Jameela]

That's when we used to be in the teen parties. Yeah.

[Mecca]

I was in college.

[Jameela]

Thank you. That's when take you down came out. I never. What year Lollipop.

[Lex P]

Props.

[Jameela]

Cause I was definitely. Oh, yeah, I was in college.

[Lex P]

Yeah, you were still in college?

[Jameela]

No, I was in.

[Lex P]

I mean in. In high school.

[Jameela]

I was in college.

[Lex P]

Cause I graduated. I was seven.

[Mecca]

So I was definitely from high school or college.

[Lex P]

From high school. I graduated 2008.

[Mecca]

You was in high school and college. A really good time, though.

[Lex P]

Oh, the whole time.

[Jameela]

You wasn't at a good time.

[Mecca]

We wanted to be grown up.

[Jameela]

In my white teeth.

[Lex P]

Yeah. I was having a time in the club.

[Mecca]

And you went to a. You went to high school.

[Lex P]

I went to a white school.

[Mecca]

But you were still at the parties.

[Lex P]

You know, it was like. Okay. So my, like last year of high school, that's when I started making like black friends and I started getting more.

[Jameela]

They was listening to Daughtry.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

Like I was listening to Dr. Lavigne. I love his.

[Lex P]

I was gonna say.

[Mecca]

What was that one, Elliot? Yeah. I mean, baby, I will wait say for you.

[Jameela]

Yes.

[Mecca]

American Idol used to have his.

[Jameela]

Yes. That little curl. Yes.

[Mecca]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

So like my high school, like my senior year, that's when I started, you know, getting a little flavor. Started a little boosie.

[Mecca]

Okay.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

Don't get me. Don't get it started. That's when I started getting a little, you know. But all the years before that, I was definitely like on my quite.

[Mecca]

She was like jazz.

[Jameela]

I was gonna say my sister had a white phase.

[Lex P]

Oh, it wasn't a phase. It was a lifestyle.

[Jameela]

I had to get her up outta there though. I was like, I'm disturbed. An eyebrow piercing bitch. Enough.

[Lex P]

I think it's for me though. It was just how I was raised. Cause I'm still friends with all My friends from high school till this day.

[Jameela]

You know what I'm saying?

[Lex P]

Like, we still talk all the time. It was just. That's what my life was. You know what I'm saying? It wasn't like I moved there and I was trying to fit in. These are the people I literally grew up. What I mean, so it was never like, awkward or weird. Now, as an adult, looking back, like, when I have children, I'm definitely going to make sure they're in a more mixed environment where it's not just heavy on one side.

[Jameela]

Where you from? Huh?

[Mecca]

Where you from?

[Lex P]

Orange, Texas. Yeah, see, she was in Beaumont. My Beaumont Queen.

[Jameela]

Yes. But, you know, Beaumont is very the go.

[Lex P]

Oh, yeah. Where you graduated from in high school?

[Jameela]

I went to high school in Georgia.

[Lex P]

Oh, okay.

[Jameela]

But my sister went to Ozan.

[Lex P]

Oh. Oh. See, Ozan. Yeah, they was very good at volleyball, too. Yeah, girls could jump.

[Jameela]

Yes.

[Lex P]

But, yes, I was in. Was like, a predominantly black school. Westbrook was more of, like, the mixed school. Central was black.

[Jameela]

Black as hell. You know, they combined them to the Central and Ozan. They did Beaumont United.

[Lex P]

Oh, it's.

[Jameela]

What the hell is this? Beaumont being MC is what it is. I said, all.

[Lex P]

All right, now, I did not know that they did that.

[Jameela]

Yes.

[Lex P]

That's insane.

[Jameela]

That's honestly probably one of the only things that have changed because, like, every time I go to Bama, I'm like, this looks the exact same as when I lived here.

[Lex P]

Now, Lamar.

[Jameela]

I used to love Lamar College. We used to go down there for the party.

[Lex P]

The Kappas at Lamar in Beaumont were like, tea. Like, if you had a Kappa during the time I was in college that went to Lamar in Beaumont, like, you were that girl. Like, oh, my God. You dating him and him. I was like, I remember my friend was dating a Kappa, and I just like. And he had money, too.

[Mecca]

Oh, I know that's right.

[Lex P]

I said, oh, you got you a good one. Girl comes now.

[Mecca]

You know, Kappa came up to me last night. Cause when I was in my early 20s, that was one of my first viral videos where I was like, I don't send happy birthday texts. I don't send Thanksgiving, but I will wish you happy founders day on J5.

[Lex P]

I'm weak.

[Mecca]

Mind you, that video has to be, like, 4 or 5 years old. They won't let it die. To the point where I re put it out last year because they kept uploading it, and it was, like, so pixelated. It was, like, bad. Like, that's how old it is. It's like, let Me just go ahead, since y' all ain't gonna give y'.

[Jameela]

All.

[Lex P]

You shot on a flip phone.

[Mecca]

It was on an old iPhone. I'm two phones away from that phone that I shot it on. I went through two phones.

[Jameela]

BlackBerry. Pearl.

[Lex P]

Pearl.

[Jameela]

Let it go. That is such a thr. Like, I haven't heard those words. And back in the day, if you was not a B, if you didn't have BBM messenger, you was not that. I know that my parents felt like that was just too. That damn grown. I said, damn, I had me that razor, though.

[Mecca]

I had a right hat.

[Jameela]

[Mecca]

I was too young. My mom said I'm not paying.

[Jameela]

I was very trendy. Yeah, they don't let us get phones till late. Anyways. They was like, yeah, it's gonna be the one that we can look at. I don't like all that flipping twisting, you know, that's all the kids. And I'm like, well, I want what the girls have. No Kia bricks.

[Mecca]

You remember when it was cool to, like, wear your phone on the lanyard?

[Lex P]

See, I. I was too old.

[Jameela]

I remember that.

[Mecca]

You wanted your phone on the lanyard. We had. I know y' all have Cascade out here, but in California, Sacramento, we had Cascade skate, which was like, we want to be roll bounce or want to.

[Lex P]

Be like, okay, what's it.

[Mecca]

Was it atl. When I say you had your phone on your neck with that light up pacifier.

[Jameela]

Oh, I love me a pacifier.

[Mecca]

I couldn't wait to get grown. My cousin had that belt that had her aim name going across.

[Jameela]

Yes. My sister had one. It said. It said little jj, right? But we both got Jay, so I could to steal it and just wear it. Like we both Js.

I remember when I college, my email was they envy Mecca. And my college professor shout out to Professor Butler said, baby, you need to change this. Change it first and last name. I think that's the first sign of.

[Lex P]

It has to be your real name. Cause Ghetto Fabulous 422.

This year, it was early 2010, so we all dressed like we did in high school. I had the double cami. Had me a little vest, little infinity scar.

So let me tell you, when I was in college, I tried to date a 6, 9 boy. And in business, that was stupid. I said we need to leave these tall. These really tall men to the really tall girls.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

Trying to contort and get yourself in position in bed. I said, this is ridiculous because now you hunched over, you finna catch a cramp. I can't even reach up that.

[Lex P]

Now I will say seeing a tall man like hunched over, like, it's ugly.

[Mecca]

Now I'm on soft.

[Lex P]

It's so cringe.

[Jameela]

It's crazy. I typically don't really like to talk to anybody above like 6 too.

[Jameela]

I like a little six too. I think that's a good height.

[Lex P]

Like six two is tall. But it's not like when I. I'm talking about like six, five and up.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

Got to leave that for the. The. The Stallions of the world.

Yeah. I ain't gonna get the next one. 65 Too Tall for me.

[Lex P]

[Lex P]

Yeah. I'm always gonna wear a platform heel. So when I put on my six inch heels, I'm definitely like, you know, I'm six one. Give it to me.

[Jameela]

Y' all don't know what to do with all that. That.

[Lex P]

You know what I'm saying?

[Mecca]

All right, now, okay, so for the bed today, we're gonna talk about. Are we really that freaky, or are we just, like, following trends? Because nowadays, like, sex talk on the Internet is just, like, very free. Like, everybody talks about sex, and it used to be, like, a taboo thing. You know what I'm saying? But do we feel now like people are being performative? Yes, but let me tell you why. So there was a video, and I don't mean to bring it up, because she has changed her lifestyle, but there's a video a long time ago that came out of Blac Chyna, you know, giving fellatio. And when I tell y' all the headhunters came out, like, that's it.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

Cause I. I remember that. What I did.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

It was like the headhunters came out.

[Jameela]

Because when I do.

[Lex P]

Because when I give head.

[Jameela]

Okay, Ms. Dick. Yes. All right.

[Lex P]

We know you mean that.

[Jameela]

Yeah. Remember that lady who was doing, like, the head tutorial? Maybe I was watching that in high.

[Lex P]

School at the table.

[Jameela]

Yes. Watch that first.

[Lex P]

I'm okay with that. Cause you're teaching.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

You making money.

[Jameela]

That's a job.

[Lex P]

I'm talking about the girls that just be like, my pussy is so good.

[Jameela]

It's the wettest. I don't know.

[Lex P]

When I get up off of a leather couch. You can't sit behind a puddle's there.

[Jameela]

Yes.

[Lex P]

It's like, okay, girl with co. Y'.

[Jameela]

All remember that song by Plies?

[Lex P]

What Pretty. Is that what.

[Mecca]

I love?

[Jameela]

Why is this just.

[Lex P]

No.

[Jameela]

Why was we listening to that in elementary?

[Lex P]

How the song song came on. She got a pretty little pussy.

[Jameela]

Let me tell you exactly what we're gonna talk about right now get to.

[Lex P]

Was the way the track came on.

[Jameela]

Why would you kick it off like that?

[Mecca]

Let's get the subject out the way. Ryan gonna bury the lead with this one, child.

[Jameela]

No need to wonder what we about to talk about.

[Lex P]

She got a pretty lip. That is funny as fuck.

[Jameela]

I never realized.

[Lex P]

I just thought about how the track came on. But no, I do think that now, like, when people talk about sex is very performative. Like, I think it's okay to have sex discussions and be open with it. But, like, why are you telling us how good? Like, especially with men, too. How good you eat pussy or.

[Jameela]

Cause I don't believe you. You know what I'm saying?

[Lex P]

Or how good your stroke was. We talking about sh. There was an episode where we talked about how, like, women, like, a high percentage of women don't have orgasms. During sex. It was so many men in the comments and like that number.

[Mecca]

Because every time be lying.

[Jameela]

Little do you know they be lying. They swear they can. You. You would have no idea, man.

[Lex P]

I'm telling you, you would never know. But I think it's just like everybody just thinks that their sex is great.

[Jameela]

Yeah, they do.

[Lex P]

And I also think that like sex can be great with one person and it may be horrible with the next. So I truly think that people are not as freaky. Some people really are freaky now for sure.

[Mecca]

Oh yes, now.

[Jameela]

And those type of people kind of scare me. Like wait a minute now is it. I don't think. I've never heard of that. Yeah, I don't think I want to do that.

[Mecca]

I think when you start getting into like the Kinks, that's when you realize I like to call myself like an old school freak. Like you know back when Adina Howard, like it was scandalous to suck dick. Like no, I'm gonna do some in the bed but I'm not gonna all.

[Jameela]

The, all the things.

[Mecca]

Like too much for me.

[Lex P]

It gets too much. But I also feel like what is your end goal with this? Like when we see like a Ms. B. Nasty or Janiece, I'm like, I understand that, right? Get your bread. And that's your job. Performing, you're doing that. But if you're just like before you go to work for your nine to five in the car, why are you doing this?

[Jameela]

Why are you mailing poo? Yes, they be doing that too.

[Lex P]

But I'm just.

[Jameela]

They be selling it.

[Lex P]

I just feel like.

[Jameela]

But even just talking about it. How do you.

[Mecca]

How do you preserve the doo doo?

[Jameela]

I don't know. You know, I don't know. I don't know if they use ice packs.

[Lex P]

Ooh, ice pack.

[Jameela]

I use hot ice.

[Lex P]

Hot ice.

[Mecca]

You can dehydrate it.

[Jameela]

I don't think they dehydrated. I think they want it to still be juicy.

[Mecca]

Oh my God.

[Lex P]

But my God, no pun intended.

[Mecca]

What Domini say my God on today.

[Jameela]

I think they still like women juicy like the poop fiends like that how.

[Lex P]

You know what they like?

[Jameela]

Girl, I'm telling you. Because people don't wrote us. Remember that man was writing me asking me for poop. And then he told me how to leave the sample. He told me how he wanted and see people like that need to be put down in.

[Lex P]

In jail.

[Jameela]

And we blocked him immediately from ex jail.

[Lex P]

But I bar now. I don't know how he got it. Poop shitty bag. I'm not talking about.

[Jameela]

I'm gonna use it.

[Lex P]

I'm talking about though, the. The men and the women who just get like on Twitter, on TikTok. Like there was this video that I saw on TikTok and this man was playing this song in the background. He just started like flicking his tongue really, really fast.

[Jameela]

I've seen those. And I'm like, what are you doing? What is that's only attracted to 50 year old ladies who don't get dick.

[Lex P]

Are you okay? But even so too, it'll be like a man. Like there's this guy, he's like a nurse or a doctor. I don't know what he. He is, but he's just always like in his scrubs and he's just like, e.

[Mecca]

I'm not at that age.

[Lex P]

And the comments though, so beautiful.

[Jameela]

The comments be like, I be like, sisters enough. I just cannot.

[Lex P]

I be so shocked.

[Jameela]

A grip.

[Lex P]

Get a grip. Like, you cannot be.

[Jameela]

Embarrass me in the comments. Like, y' all just. Y' all criminal. Yeah. Some stuff just don't even turn me on. Like that wouldn't turn me on if I seen a man doing that.

[Mecca]

I feel like I'm more turned on by like, sexual attention.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

So Internet could never turn me on.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

I have to.

[Jameela]

You have. I have to be interpersonal and not like overly. Because I've said this before too. Like, if you're talking to a guy and they like immediately bring up something sex related, like out of context. It's like, hey, yeah, what happened to hey, how are you?

[Lex P]

How's your day?

[Jameela]

You know what I'm saying? Like, it we go now, we gonna get there. Don't get. Don't. You ain't even got to do too much playing. Not to say I'm easy, but, you know, well, I'm not hard. So it's like you ain't even got me. You know what I'm saying? Like, we could just be cool and like, if the chemistry is there, is going to get there. Like you automatically bringing up sex and being like, oh, d. Sexual. It's like you're a sexual deviant. Yeah. And you're scaring me.

[Mecca]

Yeah, you're scaring the host.

[Jameela]

And you do this all the time. You do this to everybody. It's not exclusive to me.

[Lex P]

So we were talking about like stuff getting posted on Twitter and like how Twitter is like a porn site. Do y' all feel like that's like desensitized? Sensitized us though.

[Mecca]

I know a Little as me.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

Because honestly, I think that, I mean, not on no freaky, but like, I am mutuals on Twitter, specifically with a lot of porn stars, because something I found is they don't put that content on Tick Tock. But porn stars be funny, as in real life, hilarious.

[Jameela]

And Janice, so funny. Hilarious, so funny. I love her and her boobs are nice.

[Mecca]

And they're nice.

[Lex P]

Always called Janine, go help that bitch take care of them kids.

[Jameela]

You know, so it's hilarious.

[Mecca]

When they follow me on a certain platform, I follow back because, like, I'm already familiar with your content and I already know you do this, so it's like, whatever. But like, like I said with Be nasty and Raheem. Okay, well, yeah, you go just go.

[Jameela]

Ahead and see that poll roll out. You know, uphold it.

[Mecca]

You know, it is what it is.

[Lex P]

And it's so crazy. Cause even with Janiece, like, I was a little bit familiar with her content, but not like that. So when she came on the show, I was like, oh, my gosh, this bit just so cool. I love her down. So of course I started following her and I was like, oh, wait a damn.

[Jameela]

I didn't know you got down like that following her for that reason. And then I found out she was funny. You be having some bookmarks. I'll be having a few books.

[Lex P]

Yes.

[Mecca]

She just said you can't get Pong Hub in Georgia.

[Jameela]

You can't. So I heard.

[Lex P]

So you heard.

[Mecca]

Yes, I can confirm and take Texas. You can't get it confirmed.

[Lex P]

Confirmed. But yeah, I just feel like, honestly, unless that is your job or, you know, we're talking about, like, you know, if you have a podcast and we're talking about a sex topic.

[Jameela]

Right?

[Lex P]

We're just, you know. But I don't. I think being on the Internet and being like, oh, I can do this.

[Jameela]

I can. I'm the best dick sucker you ever seen.

[Lex P]

Let's relax on that.

[Jameela]

Okay, girl.

[Lex P]

Let's just. Let's just chill a little bit, you know? Ms. Good Throat.

[Jameela]

It's like a competition. And I be so confused because it's like, throat. Go, Shay. We all got a coochie, baby. Yeah, like, we do. We got it. We got it on the student now. And it's like, what do you want me to do to disprove you? Put my pussy on the Internet too. I can't do that for you.

[Lex P]

Go ball for ball.

[Jameela]

Yeah. Call up the new day. Yeah, like wrestling out Yelp reviews. Come on.

[Lex P]

Oh, my gosh. Y' all know they used to have something called Dick Yelp.

[Jameela]

They did?

[Lex P]

Yeah. And the girls would write in about.

[Jameela]

Oh, I need to read that. I know. It's real good.

[Lex P]

This girl. I know her name. Shout out to Kiana started. It was called Dick Yop. Girls used to write in about the men that they were having sex with. It was.

[Mecca]

That could have served well at one point.

[Jameela]

Really interesting.

[Lex P]

All right, we going to move on.

[Jameela]

So now it's time to get into the box. Hey, the bow, bow, bow, bow, bow, bow.

[Lex P]

We love a little theme song.

[Jameela]

That's how you know we millennials. That bow, bow, bow, bow.

[Mecca]

Metro booming just gave y' all some hits. Oh, my God.

[Lex P]

[Jameela]

I was just talking about it. Yes. Y'.

[Lex P]

All.

[Jameela]

I love this Metro. It's that teleport. This Metro Boomin futuristic summer album. It's so good. Like, I feel like it's so nostalgic. I was literally just listening to it on the way here.

[Mecca]

I have so many say that this is. They said this album is for if you were not only cranking that Soulja Boy, but cranking that Yank. Yeah, crank like all the Crank dads.

[Jameela]

Now shoot out the crank.

[Lex P]

Hey, now shoot out. Hey.

[Mecca]

Like that. Like if you was on YouTube learning every dance.

[Jameela]

If you was hitting the Quan.

[Lex P]

Yeah, the quan was the time. And y' all know he's that. He's a little strange now.

[Jameela]

The boy. Yeah, the boy who made. I said, is he all right? Does he need money?

[Lex P]

No, he's very.

[Jameela]

Yeah, something's wrong. Oh, baby, maybe he can turn around.

[Lex P]

You know we going to throw our prayers up.

[Jameela]

Fallen soldier.

[Lex P]

Okay, so what's your favorite? Because I haven't listened to it yet.

[Jameela]

So take me through there is a good song. I screenshotted my face waves. Drip Barbecue.

[Lex P]

Who is Drip Barbecue?

[Jameela]

That's the name of the song.

[Lex P]

Oh, Oh, I thought that was the name of the rap.

[Jameela]

No, it's like Waka Flaka, Metro booming, and some more. Yeah.

[Lex P]

You know, I don't do the. I don't.

[Jameela]

Listen, he had everybody on there from, like, that era. Even though you think he Native American, he. You know what I'm saying? You know, Walker say he ain't African American. He said, I'm the Native American. Shut your black ass up. He do be saying he Native American, you know, Little lie. I said, all right, me too. Me too.

[Lex P]

Okay, okay.

[Jameela]

But yes, girl, they got everybody on there. Waka Rosco Dash girl is good. Quo too.

[Mecca]

That's why I don't know if you seen on.

[Jameela]

They just want to have Jen Z.

[Mecca]

And Z was at first saying this don't sound like they were making little.

[Lex P]

Okay.

[Mecca]

And then it created divide. The millennials were like, cuz it's not for you.

[Jameela]

It's not for you.

[Lex P]

This was.

[Mecca]

It's what we were just talking about.

[Jameela]

The little JJ on the bell. Exactly. I'm not gonna lie.

[Lex P]

I think our generation is like the best generation of people.

[Jameela]

Yes.

[Lex P]

Like, we had the balance of social media and life before social media. Like we was outside.

[Jameela]

Yes. We say that all the time period. Like, we got to get experience both. And it's just like we. We just got so much good stuff. Like, I love our time period. Like, it's the best.

[Lex P]

It's really good.

[Jameela]

Cuz I feel like we take time.

[Lex P]

We know how to take advantage of the Internet and still make our money online, but we still know we got to touch grass.

[Mecca]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

We know how to take a break.

[Mecca]

Yeah. Truly. If. Remember when Tyler Crater tweeted, you can't cyber bully me. I'm going to turn my phone off. Like, that's true. I feel like that encapsulates our generation because again, when you talking about. About getting to the neck on Internet, I'm like, oh, I'm turning my phone off.

[Jameela]

Yeah, I'm not watching this beat.

[Lex P]

I'll see y' all tomorrow.

[Mecca]

You know, and even we when we were in college, like, from what we 2014, 2018, it's still not how it is now. We had Snapchat. Yeah. They were like, don't.

[Jameela]

Don't be seen. There's so much. There's so much from my college years that I couldn't even show you because it was never documented.

[Mecca]

It was never.

[Jameela]

I know it exists only now in my memory.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

You are the vision visuals.

[Lex P]

No.

[Jameela]

Like, yeah.

[Lex P]

To be literally what y' all been listening to. What y' all bop of the week, baby.

[Jameela]

I've been listening to K1. Her little fine stood ass. That album is so nails. It's. What is it? Album. So the. I forgot what the album is called.

[Lex P]

Her name is K1.

[Jameela]

K1. It's KW.

[Lex P]

Okay.

[Jameela]

Yeah. She's a biracial Nigerian from London studio. A lot of red people talking about her. Yes. But that's not. I need a good time for that reason. Exactly. But it's a really good album. She got K? Lani on there. Flow. It's. It's a real good album. Okay.

[Lex P]

I'm gonna check it out. Because you're, like, the fourth or fifth person that I've seen.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

And I keep seeing it on my timeline, but I'm like, I haven't really checked it out.

[Jameela]

It's good. It's a good record.

[Lex P]

All right. I like that. And I'm loving Kaylani's.

[Mecca]

I was just gonna say, she gonna get a Grammy off that.

[Lex P]

Folded. Folded too good. She gonna get the Grammy this time around.

[Mecca]

She gonna get it.

[Lex P]

Kaylani, come sit on the couch. We gotta talk.

[Jameela]

Come on. Kehlani, with them tattoos.

[Lex P]

She got to. She got to.

[Mecca]

I have a couple. Kehlani. I was definitely gonna say folded. I like the new Sweetie song. Both of them. That was cute.

[Lex P]

I like that.

[Mecca]

And then one thing about it, when Drake put on that bad Jamaican accent, I ain't know.

[Lex P]

When he walk wands.

[Mecca]

When he walk, all the girls on.

[Jameela]

The DJ booth come forward. Yeah.

[Lex P]

I can't be mad at it.

[Jameela]

And it's bad, but we love it, so.

[Mecca]

And it's just the fact that it's like, that's a bad accent. But when I hear it, I said, this is a hit. I know it's gonna be a hit when I'm.

[Lex P]

Have we got a Nigerian Drake yet?

[Jameela]

No. Did he not hit a little Afro beat? He didn't hit that.

[Mecca]

I haven't heard of Afro.

[Jameela]

I don't think I know the song.

[Lex P]

With his kid, but he didn't get.

[Mecca]

That Chris Brown be doing more of the Afrobeat.

[Lex P]

What didn't I do?

[Jameela]

But you. Yeah. Chris is going every reason nothing with DeVito.

[Mecca]

I feel like he.

[Lex P]

Well, he did the song with Whiz Kid, but he didn't hit the accent.

[Mecca]

He doesn't do the accent.

[Lex P]

We need that accent.

[Mecca]

I actually, quite recently, because I had made a video on Tik Tok, like, saying what I said when Drake hit that bad Jamaican accent, and the Canadians were like, that's just the Toronto accent. And the Jamaicans were laughing. So I was like, are y' all admitting that the Canadian accent or the Toronto accent is just a bad Jamaican accent?

[Jameela]

Basically.

[Lex P]

I mean. Cause, you know, Baltimore niggas sound like they British.

[Mecca]

No.

[Jameela]

I used to live in Baltimore. Ghetto. Ghetto.

[Mecca]

I was on a motherfucking YouTube. Had my little nephew trying to find the blues Clues.

[Jameela]

Yes.

[Mecca]

You know, that's a throwback Only lady who ever ate Nicki up.

[Jameela]

That's the only person who ever ate.

[Mecca]

In the dark in Baltimore, Maryland, in.

[Jameela]

The quote with the bag with that coat, she.

[Lex P]

Oh, she was like, yeah, that was it, the motherfucker.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

I said, is she British?

[Jameela]

I ain't seen her since. I ain't gonna lie.

[Lex P]

But nobody has.

[Mecca]

Please, if you're out there, please.

[Jameela]

Are you okay? Are you okay? I don't know if I feel like that sound British, though.

[Lex P]

It does sound British.

[Mecca]

Excuse me.

[Lex P]

It do.

[Jameela]

It is, dummy.

[Lex P]

Yeah. Dumb. Yes, it sounds a little British. It definitely gives, like, in certain times when. Like, when Irish people say certain things, sometimes it gives a little Jamaican.

[Jameela]

Jamaican. I'm like, what the hell going on? But that's where it came from. And that's what they said. I was like, man, his history is crazy. Jamaican dialect actually, like, originated from an Irish accent.

[Mecca]

Yes, that's what I'm saying. During the pandemic, I was on somebody page and it was a dialect page, and the lady literally started in and then went down to the Cajun, and she did what I just, like, she did. And she was reading the history of Hawaii, everyone's accent. I was like, this is so interesting.

[Jameela]

It really is.

[Mecca]

Because history. I'm from Northern California. During the 1940s, you had the great migration of black people from, like, the Deep South. So you have a lot of Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana. And if you hear, like, E40 talk.

[Jameela]

How we talk out here, that's Southern and.

[Mecca]

But it's California now. But you can. When you know the history, you're like, oh, but I do hear that Southern drawing. So shake them. I ain't got none.

[Jameela]

But you know what I always say to me, people from California and people from Detroit, Michigan sound.

[Mecca]

I love Saada, baby. I love Saada. The same reason. Because Detroit and that industrial boom.

[Jameela]

Yeah, Midwest, yeah.

[Mecca]

Same reason.

[Jameela]

But that's what they say. Southern people, we have, like, a drawn out British accent, too. I just don't really hear it. I just feel like it's real country. I don't know, but they say that's what comes from country.

[Lex P]

Yeah, that's how great. They love Dre's voice because she, like, draws out her words.

[Jameela]

They do, yes. Southern bell.

[Mecca]

Even though Texas is not the South. That's what they like to say.

[Jameela]

They do. I be trying to figure out how to have that. But what the fuck is more Southern than Terry?

[Mecca]

I just want to say at the California, you ain't never been listening.

[Jameela]

You ain't living a 409 girl, that country ass. That is a country ass state right there. It's very, very country. I'm like, what is more country than Mexico? Okay, maybe El Paso. I don't know about no El Paso. Maybe it ain't country over there, but it's way up Northeast. That's what I'm saying. Southeast Texas is country country.

[Lex P]

But I feel like the whole Texas is country. But honestly, like. But we got green pastures, Alabama and stuff. Because, like, like I said, my best friend's from Birmingham, but it's like, she is country, but I'm like, we. We real.

[Mecca]

I would say it's every country. The one thing I can appreciate, especially not being from the south originally, is when I go to Southern states, I'm able to really, really appreciate, like, all of y' all are Southern. But there is a different twist playing on.

[Lex P]

Oh, yeah.

[Mecca]

You know, it's not the same. I'm to the point where I can tell you from Atlanta, I could tell you from Houston, I can tell you from Alabama, Memphis. Like, seeing it don't be given the same.

[Jameela]

Yes, I know. And to me, it be the food. Oh, yeah. The food in Texas is superior. The food here, it's okay. And that's the one thing I wouldn't move back to Texas, but that's the one thing I do miss. I miss that bad. Being on the water, being able to get seafood like that. Like, baby, the way I crave crawfish.

[Lex P]

That crawfish gonna hit you different.

[Jameela]

I need it. Are you gonna boot to Atlanta?

[Mecca]

I'm actually. So this week, while I'm out here, I'll be splitting time.

[Lex P]

Okay.

[Mecca]

So I'm gonna give you all my business. My mom is gonna move into my crib in Houston because I just like Houston. That city has shown me so much love, and I've grown so much there.

[Lex P]

Yes.

[Mecca]

That it's like, I don't want to give up my place. Cost of living is immaculate.

[Jameela]

It is.

[Mecca]

So it's like, if goes left, I can always come back here. But I will be splitting time. But I'm gonna have me a little spot in la.

[Lex P]

Yeah, you definitely need to be out.

[Mecca]

I'm gonna be like. I'm gonna be like, oh, I need a break.

[Jameela]

I already set that mug.

[Lex P]

Cause I'm like, why are you. I mean, because. Because Houston is fun.

[Jameela]

You know what I'm saying? I'm talking about career wise.

[Mecca]

Career wise. No, and that was the thing. It was funny because right now when I come, I just sleep on Jamila's couch. There was A point like at the beginning of this year, because I've been in Atlanta once a month this whole year. So I was like, oh, I'm gonna have to get a place out here. And then, like, a week later, she called me. She like, so how would you feel about moving to Atlanta?

[Jameela]

I love to, like, check people's symptoms. So how do you feel about this?

[Mecca]

But you know what's crazy when it comes to, like, manifestation and where you're supposed to be. Spelman was my first choice. I got into Spelman, Howard Hampton. I went to HBCU Fair. So I got into most of the college colleges there. Spelman didn't have my major, though, because Spelman's majors are very basic, or at least at the time it was. I knew I wanted to do communications. They didn't necessarily have that. They had told me I could create a major, like, take classes at Morehouse and Marie Spelman. And my momma was like, you're not gonna do that. So I always wanted to move up to Atlanta my whole life. And then during the pandemic, when I was leaving Baltimore, I called Jamila's sister and I were really. We're still close. We were close at the time, and we were talking every day. And I was like, I think I'm moved to Atlanta. And she was like, because Jameela's sister live in Houston. She was like, come to Houston. It's more your vibe Atlanta. You're gonna be on the outskirts if you move to Atlanta. So I visited jazz in Houston, and that's why I was like, oh, yeah, I'm gonna stay here. So then now it's like, I have to move to Atlanta. I'm like, over the past 10 years, I've tried to come to Atlanta like, two or three times. So I'm like, okay.

[Jameela]

Period.

[Lex P]

I was trying to convince all my creative friends. I feel like for black people, if you're not in Atlanta.

[Mecca]

Yeah, everyone thinks it's la. I think, like, when Jay said it, I was like, no, it'.

[Jameela]

It's like the black la. For sure it is. There's so many opportunities out here.

[Lex P]

Yeah. Well, my Bop of the Week, and we gonna wrap this up. My Bop of the Week, y'.

[Jameela]

All.

[Lex P]

They be making fun of this song on TikTok, and it's crazy. Cause I was listening to it before it blew up. Is. I think her name is Jessie Murphy. She has a song called Blue Strips. So she's like a country singer.

[Jameela]

Okay.

[Mecca]

And is she from Georgia?

[Lex P]

I don't know where she's From.

[Mecca]

They don't know what she's saying.

[Lex P]

It says on boy, man, boy, man, boy, man.

[Mecca]

That's not the song.

[Lex P]

Okay, well, anyways, she kind of has, like, the Amy Winehouse hair. She's super young, but she's just, like. She made a country song that sampled Gucci Mane lemonade. So she's kind of like a country girl, but she got a little. You know, she got a little season. And they be, like, making fun of. They be like, this is not country music. Why do y' all think y' all can regulate what country music is? First? First of all, because they feel like if it's not. Oh, I'm like, it don't got to be like that. Country is so. I love country music because it can be a lot of things. Just like how rap and hip hop is. It can be a lot of things. You got the woke hip hop, you got the twerking hip hop. It's so many things. And I think country music is the same thing. And they'd be giving her a hard time, but the girl is good. Yeah, she's got some talent.

[Mecca]

Been mixing rock elements for the last 30 years. I feel like it's just. Just, you know, racist.

[Lex P]

And, you know.

[Mecca]

You know, they changed that whole category at the. At the Grammys behind Beyonce. Beyonce, the last person to get a solid country music album.

[Jameela]

But the crazy thing is. Oh, well, I mean, she still won.

[Lex P]

Best selling country tour ever of all time.

[Jameela]

And that's my mama.

[Lex P]

Come on.

[Jameela]

Don't play with my mother. Hello.

[Lex P]

You know what I'm saying? So, yeah.

[Jameela]

Houston legend Jessie Murphy.

[Lex P]

Blue strips. It's a bop.

[Mecca]

Blue strips.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

Cause she's, like, talking about some of the blue strips in the club. Like, it's a cute song. It's like, if you're in that era, like, you just got out of a bad breakup, you like, boy, I ain't mad at you. Like, I got my money up. I'm in the club having a good time. I'm a bad bitch. That's the kind of vibe, like, when you're getting ready to go out, this is the song you gotta listen to. That's okay. You know what I'm saying?

[Jameela]

I'm gonna have to download that for my playlist. I want what you got, Dre.

[Lex P]

What we up next? I already did my. No, I'm in segment.

[Jameela]

Okay, now it's time to get into our favorite segment of the show, which is pour your heart out. You know, if you have any questions, you can always send them to ask for minds gmail.com. that's a S K P O U R M I N D sgmail.com. let's get into the question. I know y' all give good advice.

[Mecca]

Yeah, I love an advice segment. Come on. Me too.

[Jameela]

Hey, Dre and Lex. Love the podcast and watching y' all level up. Five years ago, I ended a nearly 10 year friendship after my best friend slept with my ex. He was my high school college boyfriend and the guy I lost my virginity to. We broke up because he was living a lifestyle I didn't want any part of and I was ready to move on. My best friend knew all of this, and although I had no feelings for him anymore, I told her I wasn't comfortable with them being friends. She ignored that. Claimed they trauma bonded during COVID and eventually admitted he gave her attention no one else had. She accused me of still being in love with him, but really, I just felt betrayed. If she had been honest from the start, I might have respected it, even if I didn't like it. I never thought a friendship breakup would hurt more than a romantic one, but it does. I miss her, and she's still with him. And I don't know if I can ever trust her again. What should I do? My God on today.

[Lex P]

My God today.

[Jameela]

Accuse you of still being in love? That was my ex. Who cares if I am or not? You should be off limit.

[Mecca]

You know what I mean? I don't like who don't operate off principle. It's too many.

[Jameela]

It's too many.

[Mecca]

Goddamn.

[Jameela]

It really is. I agree.

[Mecca]

What are we talking about?

[Jameela]

Many in the world? Why you gotta go date my old.

[Mecca]

Nigga, see if they're from. Because, like, stuff like that really flies a lot more often in small towns where it's less people. Cause a city like Atlanta, that happened, bitch, I might fight you.

[Jameela]

Like, you actively tried to get that.

[Mecca]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

I don't know. And then it's like, now I got to be around both of y' all canoodling and canoodling in front of me.

[Lex P]

It's just weird. I had a. I went through a situation like that where I was like, dating a guy, like, for months, and, you know, we fell off and like one of my. And we. I hate. I hate to talk about it, because it's not anything. Cause we, like, he done moved off, he done got married and things, but it's like. And then my friend, like, my close friend. Not like a distance. It was my. Started dating him. And the way it was brought to me, it wasn't from her, it was from somebody else. And then on top of that, only for them to start fucking around. And then him to try to come back to me and talking shit about her. Like, I don't know why I did this. And it just got really weird.

[Jameela]

That's why I say it just gets weird.

[Lex P]

And I shut it down immediately. And I'm messy and I let her know because I don't move like that. But I just feel like I. Y' all said it's just too many men. Men suck in general. So if it didn't work out with.

[Jameela]

Me, why would you. Why do you think that he the better?

[Mecca]

Think your pussy's better? Yeah.

[Jameela]

They don't act like that with me.

[Lex P]

I don't know.

[Jameela]

Cause when I'm with him, it ain't never like that. He ain't never had no complaint with me.

[Lex P]

Oh, yeah.

[Jameela]

Motherfucking wait, right?

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

It's tough.

[Lex P]

It's coming. I always tell people this. Your turn is on the way.

[Mecca]

It's all your turn on the way.

[Lex P]

If you see a man treating a woman, whether it's his sister, his mother, his baby mama, his ex wife, his.

[Jameela]

Ex girlfriend, whatever, don't worry about it.

[Lex P]

Your turn is on the way.

[Mecca]

I don't think people easily change. I do think people change can if they actively want to.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

But a lot of times to your point, Lex, if you see him dogging this bitch out.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

What makes you think you're not next? I'm talking local Sacramento Facebook things. But you complaining about your baby father on Facebook when he got two other baby mamas before you who used to do the same thing. And you thought your shit was gonna be different. That's stupid.

[Jameela]

Because why? He couldn't work it out with neither one of them. Exactly.

[Mecca]

I don't feel bad for you.

[Jameela]

Yeah. And then it's like. I understand grieving that friendship though. And that that is hard to grieve in a friendship losing a good long time friend. But if A is weird, A is weird. And if at the time, I don't care how long you've been. Because I. I've lost a long time friend too. But I ain't gonna get it back. I mourned it for that little moment. It's like I. I miss. And I'm sad that this had to end.

[Lex P]

Right.

[Jameela]

Because there were good times.

[Mecca]

Times.

[Jameela]

But the good times are no longer rolling.

[Lex P]

Hey.

[Jameela]

And I feel like you should mourn a good friendship. Yes. Is this considered a good friendship though? Because she went and slept with your ex after you told her how you felt about it. She still proceeded to do what she wanted to do. And I don't know. Like, I just feel like people like that. I get it. Human nature. We have a tendency to, like, remember the good times.

[Mecca]

Yeah.

[Jameela]

And we romanticize that. Like, oh, this is my best friend. This was such a good time. Like, we used to have. Have such great and fun memories together. But sometimes you gotta, like, live in the reality of what is. Yeah. And she's not a good person if that's how ended up transpiring. So I feel like you need to find peace in just being able to let that situation go. Because she not really a good person. That's not somebody you want in your life. Your ex, neither. Exactly. Neither one of them. Because people put it on the woman.

[Mecca]

But, like, he doesn't know what they doing. They know exactly what they're doing.

[Jameela]

Yeah. He was plotting and she was plotting before. Exactly. Yeah.

[Mecca]

I said it because he did it. She might have did it because she didn't care about your feelings, but he did it because he wanted to get up under your skin.

[Jameela]

Yeah. He wanted some get back. Yeah.

[Mecca]

I feel like, obviously, the thing is, obviously, because it's your friend, you're more focused on the girl. And you're like, you're supposed to be my homegirl. But the nick is be just as nefarious as the woman in this situation.

[Jameela]

They do, if not, if not more.

[Mecca]

Because they're doing it because they know. Oh, I know.

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

They like to get under yourself.

[Mecca]

Evil men are leave you in the desert without water.

[Jameela]

And I be looking at the worst. Because we was intimate, we was hunching, we shared fluids.

[Mecca]

Now you done had up all of us.

[Lex P]

Y' all remember that Spice Girl song, when two become one, two became one. And look what you doing to me. Look what you've done to me.

[Jameela]

Disgusting. I can't. I can't go back, be trusted, do we.

[Lex P]

We got it bottled up, right? We got it bottled up. So now we're moving on to our next segment.

[Mecca]

Y' all got segments.

[Lex P]

I love this.

[Mecca]

Boom, boom, boom.

[Lex P]

We have a lot of segments because this is the Taylor Port episode.

[Mecca]

So, y', all, I'm feeling the liquor. Shout out to Taylor Port.

[Lex P]

Taylor Port. Y' all did yalls big one. We love y'. All. Shout out to Taylor. The Bottled up segment is basically, you know, where people leave us voicemails. Oh. They like to get things off of their chest. You know, it's just a little venting session. I feel like every time like we need to vent. Sometimes you need somebody just to hear you out. Okay, so we got a good bottle up of the week. I hope Shay, go ahead and play that shit.

[Mecca]

Hey, y'. All.

[Jameela]

So I am a senior from Clark Atlanta and I am taking my final course at Bernal. When I tell y' all it is the most stressful thing ever. Like, everything is going good, but it's just my housing. When I tell you this cake face, bad built, puma looking ass hoe got me up. She done sat over here, added 15k charges on my. Talked about some. Oh, you gotta clean for. For cleaning and all this and that. You told me my apartment ass is why the as am I paying an extra 15k. Who the is this? Because I'm not paying to fly another out when I literally use my money from Rio de Janeiro to pay my rent and they done pocketed half the money. And that's how I'm in the middle of this eviction. Then they gonna wait to the end of the lease and try to kick me out. And I said, no, if we need eviction and the judge granted it, where's the marshals? I'm not volunteering to get myself evicted.

[Lex P]

Babes. I agree with her.

[Jameela]

She ain't wrong.

[Mecca]

So just let me make sure I'm following this. She was paying her roommate her half of the rent and the roommate wasn't paying it. That's what it sound like. Cause it's 15k.

[Lex P]

Yeah.

[Mecca]

So she was being scammed, essentially, and they tried to kick her.

[Jameela]

Okay, you definitely have a case. You have a case because if you.

[Lex P]

Have receipts of you sending her this money on time every month and now you getting evicted, and that'll be on y'.

[Jameela]

All.

[Lex P]

If you were on the lease as well, that's gonna be on your.

[Jameela]

Your rental history.

[Lex P]

Your rental history. And when I tell you I have never been evicted, thank God. But I know people who have been evicted. And it's so hard.

[Mecca]

But I had a ding on my rental history. Cause when I moved out of my apartment in Hampton, I didn't know it. One of the blinds was broken. These motherfuckers. Fuck the Merrimack in Hampton, Virginia. Fuck y'. All. Why would you send the bill to the apartment I just moved out of?

[Jameela]

Wow.

[Mecca]

So then they put it on my rental history. So when I'm calling around, I'm like, this don't make any sense. They sent it. That's how. That's actually how I got it taken off. Because it was like, y' all sent us the Apartment I just moved out of. How was I ever to get it right? And why would I fuck my rental history up over $300 bill? My mom would have given me that.

[Lex P]

Yeah, stupid apartments are really, really crazy. But I also don't believe in. I don't care if it's $50, it's the principal. Because imagine if everybody in that apartment building, they trying to get over on them and charge them $50. I make sure I prove a point. And whenever I move out of apartments, I make sure everything's straight, everything is right. Because I'm getting my deposit back.

[Jameela]

And one thing about me, I ain't never got no deposit back. Me either. Cause one thing about it, they always gonna find a reason or not.

[Lex P]

Oh, but that's why I go in there like, they be like, oh, we can do the walk through by themselves. I said, no, I'll be there. I'll be. Cause my deposit for the apartment.

[Jameela]

Well, your deposit for your last apartment was crazy.

[Lex P]

My deposit was almost like. I wanna say almost $6,000.

[Jameela]

Oh, I need that back.

[Mecca]

God damn.

[Jameela]

I need it, need that, all of it.

[Lex P]

Then I lost my pool band. They said, oh, it's $200. I think almost a went through all them goddamn boxes. I said be Lynn, roll your sleeves up. I'm finding that, man.

[Jameela]

Hell no.

[Lex P]

Oh, I need all my money back.

[Jameela]

God.

[Lex P]

Oh yeah, yeah.

[Mecca]

I do the walk with myself and then I have a friend who's really meticulous and I'll be doing like taking pictures.

[Lex P]

Oh yeah.

[Mecca]

This was up when I got here. That was up when I got here. So y' all ain't gonna say I'll be getting deposits back?

[Jameela]

Yeah, you gotta take pictures.

[Lex P]

And the apartment I live in, I was the first person to move in there because I was literally the first person to move into the apartment.

[Mecca]

Wow.

[Lex P]

So everything was fresh and new. But I made sure, like the only thing they'll probably say is. Cuz like I hung my big TV stand up, you know, in my room and there was like some holes in.

[Mecca]

The wall, but you could feel that. Some putty.

[Lex P]

Yeah. So that's why I'm like, I'm. Oh, I'm getting that money back.

[Jameela]

Why I'm not leaving $6,000, my deposit, like 5. That's. I was like, I.

[Mecca]

Baby, I was.

[Jameela]

My credit wasn't great and then.

[Lex P]

But I had the income. When I sent them the bank statements.

[Jameela]

They said, don't worry about it, baby.

[Mecca]

We can make a got to worry about.

[Lex P]

Come on. But at that time, my credit Wasn't as good, so I had to pay. Pay, like, first and last month.

[Jameela]

Okay. Yeah, that'll do.

[Lex P]

Like that?

[Jameela]

Yeah.

[Lex P]

God damn it. But, you know, I had a time. That was a beautiful, lovely apartment, you know, but, yeah, girl, we get the yapping, right?

[Jameela]

Yeah, sorry, Girl, you fig it out.

[Lex P]

You look at God speed.

[Mecca]

I was say, you got.

[Jameela]

You got.

[Mecca]

You a college student, like you said at Clark. You can definitely take that to court and be like, I don't even got like that to even give it to you. I agree. Already gave it to her.

[Lex P]

Come on, now. She got it. Just get it off your record. Make sure it doesn't go on your record.

[Mecca]

And one thing about it, when folks realize you don't got it, what can you give me? Yeah, okay. Now we can talk.

[Jameela]

Yeah, now we can negotiate somewhere.

[Mecca]

I love negotiating with a bill collector.

[Jameela]

Me too, y'. All.

[Lex P]

I got into it with a. I. I thought I was getting sued, but I was trying. They were trying to scam me.

[Jameela]

That's the new thing. I already know exactly. It's a new thing.

[Lex P]

He called me, and they were like, you took out a loan in 2017. It was a payday loan, mind you. I don't take out loans, like, ever. Like, no payday loan. If I need $500, I'mma ask Draya, girl. Especially back then, I promise you. I just had too many people around me who had money. So in 2017, I know exactly where I was and what was going on in my life. So they were trying to say I took out a payday loan. I said, well, I know that's false. And so he starts, like, just giving me all this information. Cause that's what they do. They start talking a lot, saying all these big words. I said, hey, sir, hold on. I said, who did I get this loan from? So I can write down. He said, well, I've already told you six times.

[Jameela]

I said, that's not the click and click click. He was getting mad. He was getting mad. That's how I knew.

[Lex P]

And I said, well, hold on. I said, I do have a lawyer. So I said, I'm. He said, well, now you saying you got a lawyer. Now I know you not gonna pay.

[Jameela]

It, and now I know you're scamming.

[Lex P]

Yeah. And he was like, it's 900. I said, oh, I know for sure if I. He said, because it accumulated fees. And I was like, oh, I know. If it was less than $1,000, I definitely would have asked Dre or my sister for that. So I was like, I know y' all lying now. So we. I'm on the phone hard down, arguing. Cause I'm bored at this point. I need a little distraction. I'm ready. That's why I'm like, we going back and forth. He said, well, you know, since you want to get your lawyers involved, you don't plan on paying it back. I'm going to expedite this. And he hung up in my face. How dare you hang up in the queen's side.

[Jameela]

Not. You wanted to call back, right?

[Lex P]

I said, Cause you know, we like to call Josh.

[Jameela]

We love to call our lawyer about anything.

[Lex P]

Shout out to Josh. We love to call him for anything. But I was like, it's so crazy. Cause imagine if it was like an old. I always think about older my aunties older guys.

[Mecca]

I was gonna say my mom has felt for that. And I was like, yes.

[Lex P]

It really makes me so mad that movie, the Beekeeper.

[Jameela]

Have y' all seen that movie? Yeah, with Phylicia Rashad and Jason Stam.

[Lex P]

You know I love me some Jason Statham.

[Jameela]

It was sad cuz they scammed her out of all her money. I don't want to tell y' all what happened. I know because the in case y' all want to watch it, it do sound good though. It is good. But they scammed the older lady out of all her money.

[Mecca]

You got scammed before I got scammed. I didn't get the money back, but I paid a spooky lady to put a spell on them.

[Lex P]
