You looking a little woozy.

[B]

Fun is for the week. This is Sparta.

[A]

See, I don't think that's right. Yo, they don't give up. I don't think that's right at all. Not for nothing.

[C]

That should make you feel better, too. If you had, like, a long night, I'm going.

[B]

Keep it a buck with you. You be. You be tight in there. But when you leave, you. He'd be like, yeah, go.

[A]

You was just late 10 minutes ago.

[B]

[D]

Well, that was good. Did y' all work out the situation? You know who did this thing? You're willing to provide that information.

[B]

In exchange, you will go in there.

[A]

And be like it was him.

[B]

Write your name on the back. You got your nails done so when you point, you can point.

[D]

Good for you, man.

[B]

[B]

He don't wanna go to that gym.

[A]

Yo, he can't tuck that horny.

[A]

He cannot tuck that horny.

[B]

It's not about. No. I don't fuck with no women in the gym, bro. But why you think y' all wouldn't be distracted? Ain't good to be there in the gym. No, I'm just saying. But people like, you know, me and Mark together, they come up to us.

[D]

[A]

Wait, what? Y'. All. Ain't you hear what they say? Yo, wait, what do you. Man? What do you mean, I'm too famous for the gym? When you and Mark are out together, they.

[B]

They come off.

[A]

They with us. What did he say?

[D]

[B]

Drug dealer chic.

[E]

I like a trapper. Hey, fellas.

[A]

What's good? It's good to see you.

[B]

Queen of the South.

[D]

I'm glad you're here.

[E]

Yeah, I missed you.

[D]

I miss you, too. I need your insight on a particular thing. Joe and I were talking all y' all inside. But I need a woman's perspective on this, too. Joe and I were talking on the way in, or before we started, rather. And we were talking, he was saying, like, he's a little bit pop right now, this time of year, and part of it is, you know, just end of the year holidays.

[B]

What popped mean?

[D]

Like, oh, bro, it could mean two things.

[E]

Like, it's tight.

[D]

I assumed he meant both, but the.

[A]

Smart guy will fight you.

[D]

Look, money get tight for people with money. I ain't got money like that, but I, I. I could imagine it would.

[A]

Be like that, but no, I'm popped. No, I'm popped. I don't have time for Ish's games right now. He don't believe nothing I say, but I'm popped.

[B]

What's popping?

[A]

Shout out to the people out there that are pop right now.

[B]

What's pop? What's poppin?

[A]

Popped me tight. Tight. Less than you're used to.

[B]

No.

[A]

Hey, money that you have to be responsible with.

[C]

There is a difference between popped and less than I'm used to.

[B]

I'm used to having, like, 85 mil in the count. You know what I mean?

[A]

When you got to borrow from yourself.

[E]

No, it's so many from another person. How many people that are pop for real? Because go. People go too hard for Christmas.

[B]

That is true.

[E]

Don't pay rent and mortgages January 1st.

[B]

Who you telling?

[E]

You hear the landlord? He's stressed. Like, that's.

[A]

That's why he was late.

[E]

Him.

[A]

Balconies.

[E]

And this nigga's not pop.

[D]

Not. Not even.

[E]

Nah.

[A]

Okay.

[E]

That's not pop.

[A]

What does pop mean? Pop is subjective.

[E]

Gas or breakfast. That's pop. Choices. That's pop.

[B]

We got to make choices.

[A]

All right, you guys.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

You just came. Big surprise. Here, here. I'm not talking about that one.

[B]

You just came here last week and said, y. I've been buying gold, silver.

[A]

Word.

[E]

He used the word pop.

[A]

No, I definitely bought, man gold and silver and sh. Buy gold and silver. Honestly, you know who can't buy gold and silver? That's pop.

[B]

That's pop. $4,000 an ounce.

[A]

They pop. I spend too much for Christmas taxes. It's. It's time it's time to sit down. It's time to sit down.

[D]

Same. So I felt the same exact way. And then the Amex bill came.

[A]

Amex?

[D]

Yes, I saw my Amex bill for the month.

[B]

That was you be wanting to them.

[A]

Up, I ain't going to lie.

[E]

And then your lady birthday right before Christmas.

[A]

But you still not pop bro talk about it. I don't feel bad for these Scorpios.

[D]

But it don't be just that the bill be high.

[A]

Oh, you had to spend a million dollars for Christmas.

[E]

Letting this talk.

[D]

You got to pay the whole bill. But the thing is when Amex send you the bill until it got your charges. And now I got another list of charges from the. The other card holder.

[B]

From the co. The authorized user. The authorized user.

[D]

Yeah, buddy.

[B]

Now just come with a conversation and.

[D]

That list get longer and longer. It used to be like, you know what I mean? 95% would be on my side. Then like a little bit on her.

[B]

Side, it kind of flipped a little bit.

[E]

I was thinking you scared of her, but then you openly talk so.

[D]

I ain't scared of nobody. She don't listen to the show.

[A]

Well, not on this. Not on this show. Look on they show shows over there.

[B]

When Debo come around.

[A]

That's funny you saying that though, Mark. Cuz I always, I always felt like I would save money doing that.

[B]

That's what I thought.

[A]

Giving her a call.

[B]

Why you think that? Crazy as hell. I would think it would be the exact opposite.

[C]

No, because instead of giving her money, you're letting her use the money.

[A]

Right?

[C]

That's the, that's the concept.

[A]

The same theory is going on. Or you, or. Or you can eat.

[B]

It ain't the same because you get confused, you get full.

[A]

They say when you go to a.

[D]

Physically you get full.

[A]

They say when you go to a all you can eat. How many times do you actually eat all you can eat?

[C]

Most people don't talk to ice.

[B]

Most people don't go crazy.

[A]

Most people do not. Because mentally it's all you can eat. It's there, I can have it. So you don't.

[D]

Okay, Yep.

[B]

Yeah, that don't apply to me. But I got you going to all you can. Physically you can get to a certain point when it's all I could shop, all I could swipe. You crazy.

[A]

Also, I think that if you just given money every time, like giving money every time your partner could lose touch with just how many times that's happening versus her having a card and swiping.

[B]

See, I think the exact opposite. If I'm giving money, you gotta budget it. Yeah, yeah. You know, you getting this, it's budgeted. They don't even see the bill. So now it's just swipe. It's like casino chips.

[A]

Nah, but you know what you spending. No, you don't.

[D]

You would think, you know what you buying.

[A]

I don't think that's much better than her sending me a picture of some. I go buy it. That happened three times in the month. Then there's the bills, then there's this. Then you don't know, you just, you just hitting me. No, you hear here. And you go. So you can see what you spend.

[B]

I don't think.

[A]

And that helps people too, when they look at what they're spending.

[D]

Yes.

[B]

Why are they looking at?

[D]

Well, because, see, you're going to put.

[A]

It in their face before they wake up, right? With a little red circle.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

What the fuck is this with the yellow highlighter?

[A]

Come on, you know how this goes.

[B]

No, just throw it in the bag.

[D]

That's why you give them that mx. They let them log in for themselves because it shows you how much you spent that month on your shit.

[A]

It does, yeah.

[B]

Are they paying the MX bill? No. Right. So why are they logging in to look at what was spent on the mx? Good point. I haven't even got like. I don't care a about that.

[E]

Well, I'm not even paying attention to the to. I think it depends on the woman though.

[D]

Well, how does it depend for you, Mona? What do you, how do you see that?

[E]

I ain't never been authorized user. I'm a real. I ain't even graced their area.

[D]

We know.

[A]

Neither.

[B]

She put his nickname on the car murder.

[E]

Yeah, but I'm not going to lie. I. I've probably been more frivolous with money I've been given by somebody because it's not my money, it's not your brand.

[D]

But if they gave you the card, would you be less frivolous, more the same?

[E]

I don't think it would make a difference. It's not my money, it's not my bill. It's not like, you know, you type your car and it text you so kind of remind you, you just did something, you know, you could see it. But if I'm sliding your car, I'm not getting a text, I don't see the bill. I don't give a fuck about that.

[B]

You know. You know when you make a more mindful of it, when that don't go through?

[E]

Right now that's different.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

That's crazy. It's a Amex. That's when.

[D]

Yeah, it's going to keep going.

[B]

It goes through.

[E]

It goes through. Yeah.

[B]

You talking about the amex, it goes through.

[D]

I mean, Amex got his limits too, for most of the cars.

[A]

50Amex throw so many people to bankruptcy. Yeah.

[B]

Really let them keep going.

[A]

Yeah, cuz, you. You went and swiped that whole month. You had a blast, and then the next month came and you was popped.

[E]

And Blazer, she make that the goal to pitch you the Blazer. I could get you a Amex in six months. The whole thing.

[A]

Oh, my God.

[E]

They treat it like a trophy now.

[A]

Yo, Big Jersey. Big Jersey. Big Jersey and Big Jersey news. Come on. You know what time it is?

[B]

Yes, sir.

[A]

You know what time?

[B]

Yes, sir.

[A]

We want to say welcome home. Home three years early. I don't really care why. I didn't do all investing.

[D]

I don't care.

[A]

He's home. Looks good. Looks like he was in the weight room doing some push ups. She poked up a little bit. What y' all laughing at?

[B]

Nothing is dummy right here. I ain't letting Mark take me down.

[D]

No, I'm not the bad influence, man. Look, shout out to Fetty, though. I'm glad he's home, man.

[B]

Hope he's.

[D]

Hope he's doing well.

[A]

Not big Philly.

[B]

Big Jersey.

[D]

Big Jersey. Salute to him.

[E]

Patterson brought them kids there at home for the holidays almost. That was cute.

[D]

Everybody seems happy except Masika.

[E]

That was so weird. Like, God damn.

[A]

Yeah, you gotta chill for a minute.

[E]

Your nigga was chill for an hour.

[A]

A hot 20 minutes.

[E]

And I think her tweet was something like, how you disappoint me that fast. Bitch, if you disappointed that fast, you already disappointed. Like, you already.

[D]

She clarified that, though.

[A]

She said she was speaking for her daughter.

[D]

Her daughter. The implication was that he didn't see the kid or didn't do something by the kid after he came home.

[A]

Yo, when are y' all going to stop that?

[E]

Say he has multiple children. Correct. By multiple women. Right. You can't see all them neglets at the same time.

[B]

Yo, bigger than that, fam. I just came home. Why do we have to post everything going on in our.

[D]

No, that's a fact, cuz.

[B]

I'm taking this moment to make it about me. That's why.

[E]

Mind you, she just went through a, like, a tragic incident. I would want you know, she just lost, like, her husband. Right? Her husband just passed away. Y' all don't know that.

[A]

Are you being Serious or you being shitty?

[E]

I'm dead serious. Her husband just.

[A]

Cause right after the husband passed, she was spotted with some other nigga partying. And then they was like yo, don't you think that's a little too fast?

[E]

Yes.

[A]

And then some time passed and then.

[E]

She posted and to me that's enough to not say shit when my baby dad come home. You know that's what I mean. Because of all of that I know.

[A]

You was being shady. You set me up.

[E]

That was a long time.

[D]

That was a good one.

[A]

Why do I notice? Oh, speaking of bird, have y' all seen the Delicious is posting with but we'll talk later.

[D]

No, no, I think I'm. Don't do that. All right. First of all.

[A]

And then say that's the home.

[B]

You can't. Don't do that.

[A]

That's funny style about you. That's what you see.

[D]

He broke. That's some.

[A]

That's some.

[D]

He broke it down though. He was on. On the money podcast. He breaks down the whole thing that happened between them. His money is still there. His money is still there. They just, you know, she was. She liked to be outside more than he did. Ah. Which is if you see.

[A]

If you see the new. Oh my God. My girl was on his page for 20 minutes.

[E]

It's like I want to see.

[A]

Oh, what's up man?

[C]

Shout out to Fetty Wap, man.

[A]

Oh yeah, Fetty Wap is here.

[D]

Delicious. Definitely.

[A]

I love you.

[D]

Love you Delicious.

[B]

That's the homie that Fetty big as hell.

[A]

If Cheyenne Bryant wrapped you up like that. Leave Delicious alone. Play, play in the proper dog park. Play, play, play in the dog park. If you bel up a minute. Hey. Play in the dog park. You belong in my. If Cheyenne Brian did that.

[B]

[B]

I don't understand what she did.

[A]

Anyways you be.

[B]

You be knocking on the kennel door.

[A]

[A]

Scratching on the door playing around, man. Yeah. Welcome home, Fetty. I'm happy, I'm happy. I'm sure all the jersey is happy. You look good. Can't wait to see what you have planned.

[C]

Same.

[A]

And if you do nothing, I'm totally cool with that too. Don't rush.

[C]

Yeah, don't rush.

[D]

I Prefer if you stay still for a minute like you was talking about with other artists. Just stay still for a minute. Be with your people, connect with your people and figure out what you want to do. Don't be in a rush to put out new.

[B]

It's hard to tell that to a. That just came. Yeah, I don't know.

[D]

I've just heard so much music lately.

[B]

That I've been writing for years. Concepts, all that been beating on the.

[E]

Table all them years.

[B]

Hopefully you get to the right people in the right crew.

[A]

Yeah, I hear y'.

[D]

All. We jump on that folder, I wouldn't.

[A]

See a studio no time soon.

[B]

That's me, that's me. That's me.

[E]

How long would you need?

[C]

You can hit the studio. Just don't be in a rush to push it out.

[D]

That's what I'm saying. Make all the art you want.

[E]

Got to go. Go to the studio.

[D]

You ain't go to the studio. Oh, I didn't realize that you did the BET freestyle till like last week. Okay, Did y' all see that?

[A]

Did y'. All.

[C]

No, never see it.

[D]

Years old.

[B]

You was in the stool.

[D]

No, she's on the BET Hip Hop Awards with a freestyle.

[E]

Listen. One year before. Cuz BET Awards is over. Now y' all know that, right? So the hip hop ones, oh, that's just hip hop. They did the cipher and instead of doing rappers, they like tried to make it funny. So they had like me, Kirk Franklin, Deborah Dan, all these people, right? Because remember, you might remember it, right?

[B]

It's an eclectic.

[A]

It's not coming back to me.

[E]

And I'm shocked. Cuz you're a big. Don't call me white girl supporter.

[A]

Yeah, I am.

[E]

No, fellas, we freestyle and they picked a beat for us. And if y' all remember, Meek went viral after cuz he was irritated with bet. He felt like. Like BET was making a mockery of his family. Y' all remember that part you did salt part y these. First of all, it was. Let me, let me talk to the artist in the room. The beat was hard to catch, Joey. Cuz I wrote that I might, you.

[D]

Know, you were close to it.

[E]

Rumor had. Shut up.

[D]

You was close.

[E]

Some people in the comments said I sound like Cassidy. Some people said I sound like Rumor Run dmc. But the essence of hip hop, Corey. I had it. And I was big as in a small booth.

[D]

You look good. You look good.

[E]

I thought you feel me?

[D]

She look good. It's just, you know, and. And the raps was good.

[E]

Listen.

[D]

And the beat Was good.

[E]

If you pull that up. Mind you, I'm 60. Bigger.

[A]

We're totally fine. We take Mona his word for it. Awesome experience.

[D]

It was dope, though.

[A]

YouTube. Check it out.

[E]

No, you don't even have to check it out.

[A]

Or don't check it out. Or don't. Or don't check it out.

[E]

It was. It was what it was when it was.

[A]

Yeah, we had a new day.

[E]

All trades, bro. I could do whatever.

[B]

No doubt.

[E]

I keep trying to get this to. You mean bad with me, but whatever.

[D]

Y'.

[E]

All.

[D]

Y' all mentioned Salt. I don't know if it's the right time, but, you know, Salt and Pepper just got beat down by UMG to the case.

[C]

They did.

[D]

Well, how would you describe it?

[C]

They were talking to a production deal. They're really technically getting beat down by Herbie Love Bug, if you want to be real.

[E]

Still.

[B]

I heard that, too. He.

[C]

The UMG deal is not with Salt and Pepper. It's with Herbie.

[E]

Damn.

[C]

So they're fighting to get their bastards back. But it's Herbie's masters.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

And. And UMG won. It was thrown out. It wasn't. They won. It was. It was thrown out. Very similar to the Drake situation, you know, where UMG is just looking real strong right now. And it makes me feel bad for artists. You know what I mean? Like.

[A]

But it's different.

[B]

Well, in that case, it's different because it's. What did UMG do wrong?

[C]

The UMG didn't do anything wrong, unfortunately.

[B]

If I sign, my deal is with you, and your deal is. And you signed the artist, and the artist beef can't be with me.

[A]

Correct.

[C]

Unfortunately. I want them to get their back. But it sounds like it's a Herbie Love Bug beef, not a UMG beef.

[E]

It's because of that they did to spend around the original one.

[C]

You've been in production deals.

[E]

So you.

[C]

You understand this, right? Like, this is.

[E]

You've been in the terrible deal. That's how you swung it.

[C]

It's not. No, it's not necessarily.

[A]

A production deal is not necessarily bad. I mean.

[D]

No, it isn't.

[A]

I didn't have the greatest experience with them. Most of the times when you hear horror stories like this, a production deal is attached. But a proper production deal could be. Could be amazing. Right? That's where. That's why it gets tricky, because production deal. They're providing. We're supposed to be providing all of these services, some of which is giving you a song. Right. Or finding the song. So if I'm doing that, then what percentage of all of these things am I entitled to? And most times that's agreed upon before the hit.

[C]

What's interesting is Herbie was there at the. The Rock and Roll hall of Fame induction. He was with them. So I don't know what's going on, but.

[A]

Yeah, but that could be front facing while we trying to negotiate in the background, maybe. And then that's the thing we said we having this talk in 2026. Herbie love bug in 1988. 89 is the man. Is the man, man. So, I mean, it's tough.

[B]

And part of the services you speak of could be getting you to the label. You might not have been able to.

[E]

Make the it to.

[B]

To the label without me.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

You can have a hit that falls on deaf ears.

[A]

I don't.

[B]

I take your hit and your record and provide ears and that'll blow it up the way people can hear it.

[A]

I don't think kids should be allowed to sign production.

[E]

Exactly.

[C]

Yeah, that's fair.

[A]

If you're under 21 years old. Really, Technically, I think it should be the same rental car age. If you're under 25 years old. You should not be able to just sign a production deal on your own.

[B]

You can't drive a car under 25. 5. But you can sign your life away at 18.

[A]

You're gonna sign up. You're gonna sign a piece of paper that's gonna jam you up for the next however many years.

[E]

That is crazy.

[A]

My heart goes out to anybody out there fighting a good fight, trying to get out a bad contract, trying to get their contracts together, trying to get their business in order. Salute. Salute. Salute.

[C]

It gets tricky too.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Your dog. Hundreds of million dollars might have been made on your back and you end up studio. Like that's. That's a real realization for a bunch of people. Like, that is crazy.

[A]

I get it. I get it. Listen, there is more music stuff that I want to get to, but we should probably address what's going on in Minneapolis or what happened in Minneapolis. We should get right to it. Let's not wait, right? Yeah.

[E]

It's a hard one to the freedom fighter section as well.

[D]

No, I mean, look, it's for everybody, man. You know, honestly, with my travel, I didn't follow the story as closely as I wanted to. Obviously. I know that a woman was killed by ICE agents a couple days ago during these ICE raids, which is still unclear why they were where they were. Why they were where they were. But it's very clear that this Woman was killed by an ICE agent. This woman was somebody who was actively trying to sort of coordinate efforts to resist ICE and to notify people about what was going on in the world, what was going on in Minneapolis. To me, it's just a bigger problem, which is these ICE raids are not only probably illegal, but definitely immoral and dangerous. And I'm frustrated to see it happening in Minnesota and anywhere in the world.

[E]

The propaganda that they put on television, the little songs they put in the background, the little montages they put together, it's just too, too aggressive. It's too much, like, emotion and, like, go get them them up type of vibe. I'm curious, what type of speech do they get before they go out? Like, go kill them. Shoot to kill or whatever. This is a woman. And I believe, from what I read, that he gave her a command. She didn't follow it at first, but then she starts to resist, and that's when he shoots her in the face. I also read that recently he was dragged by somebody, a protester or somebody, a couple blocks. So this nigga probably itches.

[D]

He's already turned up.

[E]

It's a bad. It's a. You know what I mean? It's a loose for a lose. Because if he's already in this little aggressive ass position, you know, I mean, they got license to kill. That's what it seems like to me as a black person. The police have license to kill. Why wouldn't ICE have license to kill?

[D]

Facts.

[E]

And he got dragged, right? He was dragged, Joey, By a civilian recently.

[D]

That's the job.

[E]

That is the job. But I'm just saying, that was popping the next person that played with.

[D]

No, you're 100, right?

[E]

It's a girl in her face, which.

[B]

Means that you don't have the proper mental fortitude to handle the job.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

You know what I'm saying? Like, if you can't handle yourself or if you treating this new situation based on the last situation, you might shouldn't be there.

[A]

And we're talking about Renee Nicole Good's execution in Minneapolis. An American citizen, mother of three. Yeah, Mother of three. A wife murdered in front of her wife who has the dog. Jesus, Mary and John Joseph.

[C]

Bro, it's all on camera. There's a lot of civilian footage.

[B]

Tons.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

All different angles. All of that stuff, it's crazy. What. What really is upsetting to me.

[A]

37 years old.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

They're claiming that she was weaponizing the car to try to hit the ICE agent. It didn't look like that to Me, she was pulling off. She was waving people past and pulling out slowly, bro.

[B]

She let three or four cars go by her before she even went to pull off.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

As she goes to pull off, they ran to her door from both sides. And this is the thing that people not understanding. Like, dog, y', all, the ICE people are masked. Yeah, I saw one last week. They were dragging a pregnant lady, a Hispanic lady. She was pregnant, bro. They were dragging her on her back across the street, and nobody could be held accountable because you can't even use the facial recognition or any of that to identify them.

[C]

Yeah, I don't think law enforcement should be able to use.

[B]

That is crazy, bro.

[E]

Yeah, there is it. It defeats the purpose for people to wear cameras if you're gonna come out and ski. It doesn't make any sense. It's just the energy of it is what makes me uncomfortable. This is America. That's what we do. Get together with signs of protest. When the white people can't protest, we in trouble. Yeah, okay. Like, they shooting white people in the face, we in trouble. I think a lot of people, I don't know if they don't think it, take it as a big deal because you born here, you got papers. But whenever they. With people, people from the bottom, the niggas are next. Yeah, like, we're next. They're going to fuck with us next. That's why it makes more sense when we all band together. But that's what she's doing, banding together, being American, standing up for people that, you know, it doesn't affect her standing. And you die for that. It's crazy.

[B]

They don't. They don't like any type of interference with. With anything ICE related. There was a. There was an app that went out that went around a couple months ago. It's called I ICE Block. And basically it was just live people reporting of ICE agents. So let's say we saw ICE agents outside or somewhere. You could go in the app and just. It'll notify anybody in the radius. Hey, there's ICE agents over here. They contacted Apple, Google, all of them. Hey, get this app down.

[D]

Shut that shit down.

[B]

They shut that down. And it's just. It's just civilians reporting. Like, they want them to move with blanketed immunity. Like, they could just do what the fuck they want to do. And, bro, it's not.

[E]

This shit like a movie.

[B]

I don't even. Yeah, it's like a movie.

[D]

It's like.

[A]

It really is.

[B]

A physician was there, like, yo, let me check her vitals no, no. He's like, yo, I'm a physician. He said, I don't care. Like, bro, it's no level of humanity there. And it's crazy. That's a targeted hit. That's just.

[D]

This is the end result to me.

[B]

Of some third world shit.

[D]

It is. And because, you know, when we start using that language of illegal alien, which is why we were so.

[B]

It dehumanizes the people.

[D]

That's exactly right.

[B]

And that's the goal.

[D]

And that was the goal. And so that's why people say, y' all being PC, y', all. Y' all being too soft, Y' all snowflakes. When you want people called undocumented versus, you know, illegals. Illegal alien. When you call people illegal alien, to your point, it dehumanizes them. And as Trump keeps ramping up the security state. And it's not just Trump that did this. I mean, it happened under Obama, you know, cuz, again, this isn't like a two year blip. It's way worse under Trump. But it's been like this for decades now, where you treat anybody who's not like you or not like us as a security threat. Not just somebody who. Who's not documented, but as an actual security threat. You don't have to treat them with the same rights and affordances as you do someone who's a citizen. So it's like, oh, well, yeah, fuck medical attention, right? Fuck. What do you call it? Due process, you know, fuck civil proceedings.

[B]

They're not entitled to the Internet. They're not entitled to, bro. And so my thing is, again, I've been arguing for the last couple days, even with a bunch of my Black friends, bro, 60 years ago, we were them. Yeah, 60 years ago, the public sentiment and emotional sentiment around shit that's going on, like, this was geared toward us. And we looked for people like, yo, dog, y' all don't see this going on. They sicken dogs on our mothers.

[D]

Yeah, they.

[B]

They couldn't water hoses on women outside. Y' all don't think nothing is wrong with this? And it's the same exact. We just doing it to people that are Hispanic.

[E]

We still getting up, though. Wait, that's. I'm not disagreeing because it almost sound like we good.

[B]

No, but publicly, back in the 60s, people were getting dogs attacked. I mean, getting attacked by dogs, dogs, water hoses, etc.

[A]

Etc.

[B]

And we look to those people like, yo, look, this is not right to my black friends. I'm look, talking to my friends like, fam, we Were them. How the. Are y' all supporting this?

[E]

The funniest part, like, the hypocrisy part is nobody's from here but us. Like, everybody. This is what this is about. That's why the ladies stand there with the torch, you know what I mean? This is the place for immigrants to. To come and make a dream happen. Everybody is here on some immigrant shit. Everybody except for. And Native Americans. And to be honest, Mark, I ain't never seen Native American pass a commercial. Never seen one in real life. My. If I see one in real life, I might run up, ask for a picture. I've never seen a Native American in my life. Not that I could recognize as Native American. I hope that's not racist, Parks.

[A]

You know, on the last part, we were talking about what he did in Venice, Venezuela, with Maduro. Yeah. Kidnapping the president and his wife. And we said a large part of that was just his behavior in general has been power tripping.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

And some people I did see, actually, some Americans I saw applauding that. Yeah, the kidnapping and yeah, we take the oil and yada, yada, yada. But the. The problem when you have somebody that's power tripping is it doesn't stop. Right. So here we have this incident now, which is more. Which is more power tripping, to Mona's point. And I ain't even. We can get technical about what we saw and all of that in two seconds. But what it feels like is that you are sending your Black Hawks team to blue neighborhoods, blue states that you've been beefing with to kill somebody.

[B]

That's what it feels like to instill fear in the people. So now that when y' all know what. Get out of the way down.

[A]

Big social experiment. Yeah, but I can't say that that's what it is.

[B]

It feels do is say that that's.

[A]

What it feels like. It's scary to think that. That these other powers and parties are in that much control of the design. To Mona's point, you don't send. You don't send those people in those uniforms to neighborhoods with that protective gear. Here with their face covered with the.

[B]

Bulletproof like, bro, they going in like.

[E]

A hit squad looking out the window today.

[A]

They're going in like exactly what. What they are. That was Renee's block that she was on. Yeah, yeah.

[B]

Her neighbor's yelling at the cops like, yo, you just shot my name.

[A]

I don't know. Have you ever been to Minneapolis?

[E]

No.

[A]

Minneapolis. Minneapolis is. Let me not say a blue. Forget the blue stuff. Minneapolis Is a vibe. Like the people. Like, you can get a dope coffee there. Nightlife is good there. It's a thriving sports scene there. People in the town will speak to you, speak to you. It's a vibe. So, I mean, it's blue, but to me, blue is kind of bot. If you say blue, you get the vibe of the people. If you've been to Minneapolis, it's a great place with great people, is what I'm saying, so people don't get shot. If the ICE agents are coming to the block, this is exactly the place where the neighbors and the people that live here are going to corral together to spread the message, to say, hey, y', all, ICE is coming to our hood.

[E]

Right?

[B]

Gotcha. That's.

[A]

That's. That's what I'm saying.

[B]

I've never been so.

[A]

I don't know. That word on the curb is that. That may have been some of what's going on, which is why those officers. Those officers was on from the rip. Don't tell me. You was on. Because she was trying to make a K turn in the street.

[B]

And, bro, she even. Let's say she was making the K turn. When you watch it in its entirety, like, if you. Because they got footage for, like, two minutes before any of this ever happens, she was patiently letting other cars go by her.

[D]

Right?

[B]

It wasn't like she was just trying to Brody. And she was letting people go by her, go by her, go by her. And then that happened. So it wasn't like she was just being irate or irrational in her driving practices.

[D]

That.

[A]

What?

[B]

It's a lie.

[D]

Here's the thing, man.

[A]

Sorry.

[E]

I'm sorry. The same way people get frustrated. That's the only thing that frustrated me. About your point earlier when you were saying. I understood what you were saying about the 60s and stuff, but for me, as a black person, it still feels almost as intense because I could just type on my computer and find a black person being murdered recently. Like, and I told you no, but.

[B]

I'm saying, so us as black people, we should be appalled by that. We shouldn't be supporting that.

[E]

Right?

[B]

You get what I'm saying? That was my point. I'm arguing with my black friends about this, yo.

[A]

We as people should be appalled by that. That gets lost in this too, yo. This is so inhumane. Yeah, right? And to listen to the regurgitated nonsense of Kristy Gnome and J.D.

[B]

Vance.

[A]

Like, you ever be on the phone. You ever be on the phone with, like, customer service or somebody, and you could Hear their programming like. Like you know that they can't do nothing. There's nothing they can do outside of their hands. They. They have been trained and programmed to do this. That's what Kristi Noem sound like. Not even 90 minutes after the event happened. Y' all done. Y' all done. Declared and determined. So much with. With no investigation.

[B]

When I was domestic terrorist.

[E]

Let me.

[D]

Let's say she is what I was.

[E]

Going to say though. But I was in the middle of saying it and I mentioned Ish's point the same way you watch people get shot and people say, well damn, why you didn't hit him in the leg? Vehicle's even bigger because there are four wheels that you. It's just options you can take. You go for a face that's. It's like. It sounds like trying to close the cash.

[B]

Yes, it sounds like a hit. That's what it sounds like.

[E]

The point about revenge just makes a lot of sense.

[D]

Well that's what I was gonna say. When you talk about domestic terrorists, let's say she is a domestic terrorist, right? She's not.

[C]

But even though still proof of it. Yeah.

[D]

No, no, but let's just say she is pretend Osam bin Laden was a terrorist, right? So what I'm saying is they've managed to find people, target people with precision equipment when they want to. They've managed to take Dylann Roof, who shot up a whole church to Burger King, get him captured without incident, take him to Burger King and bring them. I mean when they want to capture people. They do.

[C]

And when they want to kill people. Yes, they do.

[D]

They just captured a whole prep. They just went and got Nicolas Maduro and his wife from their country. Country. He's the president. Without hitting him. Because they wanted a perp walk. You couldn't, you couldn't bring this, this 37 year old white woman, right?

[A]

That wasn't a mission in a mommy minivan.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

So it's that. It's almost like their pet park walk, watch. Watch her lay here dead.

[D]

Yeah. I want everybody to know that's what a lynching is.

[E]

Stop playing. That's what a lynching is.

[B]

A message to the rest of y'. All.

[E]

We're right.

[D]

Lynchings are extrajudicial. Right? You go outside the boundaries of law, you kill somebody. And then they would leave them hanging there for hours so that you could see a message of what happens when you don't follow the program. Same shit happened to Mike Brown laying out there for four and a half hours in Ferguson. The Same thing we're seeing right now, bro.

[B]

This is different, bro. I'm not even gonna hold you. It is scary.

[E]

The Second amendment right to carry a gun.

[B]

And then. And then it's gonna get worse, and it's gonna just. No. And it's gonna justify it.

[D]

Yeah, man. So we're gonna.

[A]

We.

[D]

We stand anyway. We stand in solidarity. How has that affected you as someone who employs so many undocumented people?

[B]

I don't employ so many undocumented people.

[D]

Like, do you give them breaks to at least watch this stuff?

[A]

Yo, dawg, this guy.

[E]

Well, do y' all have a cold word? Because I.

[D]

La migra. La migra.

[E]

In my mind. In my mind, that happens that I already know what I'm gonna do. Like, I'm gonna just act out, like, run. Everybody put my foot out when they tripping. Yeah. Like, if I see them ring up, I'm yelling, I'm grabbing your baby.

[B]

Trying to help out.

[E]

I'm putting the kids in the car. Meet me on 10th Street, y'.

[B]

All.

[A]

But that's the other thing. I know you making this joke with. That's the other thing that really. All of this is bothersome. Yeah. To a different degree. But what really bothered me was, did y' all even get who y' all were coming here to get?

[C]

Good question. I don't know.

[B]

Right.

[D]

And that's.

[A]

Y' all came here with all of this gear, put on all of this scene in this town, and we didn't see any footage of y' all actually arresting or detaining who y' all came.

[C]

There to get, let alone information on the people that you went to get. Did you need to be army geared down, or is this a whole depot?

[A]

That's a tactic. That's not.

[B]

They got a new clip. I don't know if y' all saw it in New Jersey, in Burlington County. This is New Jersey, fam. We not in Minneapolis. They are going door to door. They knocking on somebody's door door. And they, like, talking through the ring. Nobody's home. And they like, yo, somebody's home. It's two cars in the driveway, sir. Nobody's home. Why are you wearing a mask, ma'?

[A]

Am?

[B]

I'm wearing a mask because it's cold outside. And they're talking to this lady through her ring, and they are beating on her window like, yo, somebody come outside. No, I'm not. And if I was home, I'm still not coming outside. And they were harassing this lady through the ring. Camera, the ICE agents. It's nuts, bro. They are damn near going point like certain areas of Newark. So when you start talking about the blue, bro, they got red states and blue states, but they're blue areas and red areas. If you know what the we saying, they going to the blue areas, targeting them.

[E]

Did y' all see the clip with the drones? They use drones to knock on the door. They, they don't even talk to the people. They didn't give the people a chance. They have drones, they come to the door, they knock at first, then they use the whatever. I guess the. It's a drone, but it's like the door kicker how they used to. They ram the door open, they drag a woman out there looking for her husband. She said he wasn't there. He really wasn't there. But she get. The neighbors are the ones who woke up. Y' all didn't see that. That is scary. Like they coming through. These niggas are not even coming close. And then, you know what really bothers me is how much does that cost? We using all that money on our side to play with fucking little fake helicopters.

[B]

They was giving them $50,000 signing bones bonuses, bro. They said in Texas the line for applicants was around the block because they was offering them fifty thousand dollar signing bonuses. So if you give them poor people, I ain't even gonna call them all poor, but some people that are financially. They're gonna do it. Yeah, bro, they're gonna do it. They're gonna do what they're gonna do.

[E]

And it's disgusting. The same way I feel about becoming a correctional officer, becoming a police officer. It just has to be these, those kind of things have to be in you. Your father did it. You feel a type of way. You can't. That's not a job you. You should get because you lost your job at Amazon and you pop from Christmas. It's just. That's not a good idea.

[B]

Yeah, but like he said, once they start incentivizing it, you know, they going, are going to go.

[E]

And then you know the hiring process. What you don't have to have a, you know, have a check or training. They don't. Bro, this all bad.

[B]

Scary.

[E]

It's like a bummer.

[B]

Cuz. God, it could be any of us.

[E]

Especially you, cuz you look Latin. You weren't see.

[A]

I agree that there were a million other things that this officer could have did. They found his identity? They found you. They was going to find his identity.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

And. And they have released it.

[B]

Did he have a record of or history?

[A]

I didn't look him up.

[E]

Remember, he got dragged 10 days ago.

[D]

But they even showed like a long, like, his record of violence. But they. They talked about what Mona was describing, which is like, just in the last week or so, he's been involved in this, and he's. It looked like almost like he was snapping based on what he was having been out there.

[A]

No, there's no angle of this video. There's no angle of this video where Trump, Vance and Kristi Gnomes version rings true.

[B]

Right?

[A]

I've seen this version. I've seen every version. Version. I've seen it slowed down. I've seen it from every angle. Every phone that was on that block. I've watched them all. I saw the video with the physician. I saw the video. I saw them all.

[B]

They got one over the gate that was from a frontal, so you could see the front of the car. Yeah, they had one that was like, over a fence. Like somebody had a camera out there over a gate. That one is really, really telling. Like, this is crazy, bro.

[A]

Where the gentleman's feet, where homeboy, the killer's feet were versus where the car was when he drew his weapon. I mean, listen, whatever. Whatever. Whatever you want to look at in this. In this video. Also, for these dudes to have on all of this gear, they should be trained enough to know how to make this capture without anybody getting. Getting. Getting hurt or murdered.

[C]

Unless the aim.

[D]

That's what pisses me, that car.

[A]

Even if what y' all was saying was true, which it wasn't, but let's pretend she was with the car pointed in your direction, trying to hit you. They shouldn't have. Nobody there that can't even get out the way of that damn Subaru doing that. Whatever kind of car that was out the way.

[B]

The lady was turning to the right, bro. He was already out the way.

[A]

No, the wheels were turned.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

And then he walks. And then he walks down to see the. See the accident and see the murder, and then he walks back the other way. And then Trump gets online to say, yeah, this guy is in the hospital now recovering, and he's lucky to be alive. It's like, yo, I wanted to come in and say some of y' all voted for this.

[B]

Yeah. Yep. Yes.

[C]

A lot of people.

[E]

Yes, bro, a lot of people.

[B]

And they doubling down. It's okay to be like, yo, I made a mistake, bro. It's okay. They doubling down. That's the. That's the. They doubling down.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Every person I know that voted for Trump, they are doubling down.

[D]

Yeah. I met one Yet.

[B]

I have not met one yet. To be like, yo, I ain't gonna lie. I was up financially. I thought he was gonna do better for the economy. I made a mistake. I have not met one yet.

[A]

Bro, that is like the Venezuela joint. At the last part, y' all were here where we tried to. We tried to move it back so it didn't suck the morale out of the room. And we eventually did it, and it was heavy. And I left and I listened to that. And then as soon as I left, all of this shit started happening. I started getting that heavy feeling again, like, in my heart and my soul. And it reminded me I had forgotten. It reminded me of how it felt pardoned when he was in office the first time.

[C]

Yeah, it was constantly.

[A]

Always something when he was in office the first time. And you had to come in here and sit on these microphones. Let me tell you, it didn't feel good. A lot. Word. It was real heavy. It was a angst. This same we doing now, counting the years to see when it's up and when we could hit the booth again to try to make a change. That was going on then.

[B]

Like, bro, it was.

[A]

It was tough.

[E]

I am curious. I'm sorry. We finished. You know, I really care about if you guys are finished before I speak. When you speak, you said, like, the people that are voting for him are double down. I don't know. For me, this was different. You know, we came up in a time where you didn't ask people who they voted for. It was taboo to talk about religion and politics. I don't give a fuck if you were just posting it, right? Oh, fuck that. I'm voting for Trump. Or that became low key kind of popular merch in the city. A lot of young guys. And YNS was wearing Make America Great again. Like, that was the cute thing to do, right? I stopped relationships for that. Like, I don't think it's funny. Yeah, Like, I think that that was enough for me, especially at the age I am. Like, we grown enough. Like, that shit ain't cool. It's not funny. It had real consequence. I just bumped into somebody in person that I kind of unfriended in real life, in social media. And he was shot, flabbergasted like, Mona, you can't be serious. I am dead serious. I don't think it's funny I said something to you because I remember my thing with people would be like, yo, yo, if you really believe in this, cool. But a lot of y' all are trolling like, Somebody's not looking at this thinking this is what's going on. You know what I mean? Or this is what you. You trolling. But you posting and then people is so much information and you could just repost it regardless if it makes sense, if it's true, where it comes from that the stakes was too high like that y'. All. I barely can listen to him speak, let alone talk to a. That voted for him is what I'm.

[A]

Trying to say to answer you out wasn't. You just went on with your But I was. I wasn't done at all.

[B]

This worse than the first time. It is like emotionally we're.

[E]

I'm so stressed out about it.

[C]

Well, it seems like he's got a vendetta too.

[E]

Don't. Yes. He seems angry. That came back with a vengeance.

[A]

Yeah. So there's no choice but to. Of course all the choice is connected. Of course this is connected to them cutting the Trump cutting the $10 billion in the blue states for child services and social services. And child services.

[D]

That's an important piece.

[B]

You know, I feel bad for town or lay down.

[A]

You know, I feel bad for. You know, I feel bad for. I feel bad for a lot of those Minneapolis police officers.

[B]

True.

[A]

Why see that in that. What?

[B]

Yeah. And politicians.

[A]

Politics is not my world. So maybe I don't know. But the police officers are of the town. In Minneapolis, the police officers spend every week and month probably knowing the names and families in the town. The police officers had absolutely nothing to do with ICE coming in their town and executing someone on an American on American soil. So now when the riots start and the protests start and which they are now, voices. People start to let their voice be heard. It's not enough for y' all ICE people. So now y' all are calling upon the Minneapolis police police to come stand with you, many of whom do not agree with how you feel what. What you did and stand with the sentiment of the town. That's why.

[D]

Oh, I see.

[B]

That's why I said the politicians too.

[A]

You putting. You putting. You putting. There's businesses out there now where they're showing all of these clips where the ICE agents is at a hotel or ICE agents is at a restaurant or ICE agents over here in the town.

[B]

Is like, nah, dog, we're not feeding you.

[A]

We not housing you. We not. None of that really.

[B]

Yeah. The hotel was like, yo, ICE agents. You. You're. We found out your ICE agents and y' all are not welcome here.

[D]

Good for them like you.

[B]

You're getting kicked out of this hotel. That's a great.

[A]

Also very rare to hear. Thank God. It was so refreshing to hear Governor Tim Waltz and and and and the mayor Jacob Frey. Am I saying his name right? Be so aligned in their messaging.

[B]

That's what I said.

[A]

Like Jacob Frey just kept it a bean like yo y' all niggas get the out.

[B]

Get the fuck out.

[A]

Tim Walt said it with. Tim Walt said it with a little more.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

With a little more the way it's supposed to be.

[B]

Polish on it. Yeah. Yeah.

[A]

But great to see a governor and mayor aligned that way and and say hey what. What you saw is now wrong. They already worked on their self defense claim they pumping that up. Hey and Jacob told us that before it even hit the net on my feed. He was like yo, they already self defended me to death. That's not that. This is not that. Your eyes didn't deceive you. What you witnessed was a murder and execution of a 37 year old man.

[B]

So imagine if you're. And again I don't. But just imagine if you're a Republican politician. Right. But you think that shit is fucking up. They getting their asses kicked like no my. I ain't with them neither bro. It's it we gonna see at the primaries.

[E]

Y' all have great hearts. I don't feel bad for the police or the politicians.

[D]

I don't either. But I understand the point they are being put them in a possible position. But. And National Guard is going to come in as well. It's gonna. It's going to be tough for them.

[A]

I know y' all are freedom fighters. I know people that are good people that are policemen.

[D]

Me too.

[A]

Me too.

[B]

Or even if you're a national guard, you're 20 something. You're. You're not. It's like almost when the police gotta protect the KKK when they. When they doing a march or they rally. Yo, it's your job. You got to protect them. So nobody could them up walking up the street. Even if you're a black police officer and they disrespecting you. You gotta protect these bastards as they walk through the seat streets of D.C. or Charlotte or any other major city. That is crazy bro.

[E]

You gotta protect the people that. That you protect everybody every day. That's the right thing.

[B]

Well I'm just reading they out there right now firing off tear gas and.

[A]

And.

[B]

And flashbangs and at the protesters out there.

[E]

The regular police are. Or isis.

[B]

I don't know. I don't know. I don't Know exactly who's doing about.

[E]

Feeling bad for the police because they got to deal with the ath. Because ice. Ice isn't going to be a part of that at all.

[A]

They're.

[E]

They leave. That's just.

[B]

They leave.

[E]

Like, that's a.

[B]

But I don't know.

[E]

You know, like, imagine that. Imagine if the police, the local police, just put their body in between that.

[A]

Well, then don't leave, because they were.

[B]

Sent there and it's. And it's a charge.

[A]

They were sent there.

[B]

The local police can't just go jump in front of isis.

[A]

They're not leaving. We so stuck on the action that I think people are missing the sentiment. They got the clip of the ICE agents kicking over the memorial.

[B]

Yeah, yeah. And then. And then walked up on the dude and was pushing the dude. This the crazy shit that white people do. They'll walk up to you and be like, get. Step back, step back. No, you walked over here to me telling me to step back.

[A]

Don't walk up on me.

[B]

And walked up on the dude and pushed the dude. It's a charge. If I did it to him, it's a charge.

[A]

You kicking over.

[B]

They kicked the memorial over, bro. How heartless is that? So you're not even saying, yo, we made a mistake, yo, this is a bad thing. They kicked the memorial.

[A]

No. Y' all looking to do that again? And know how I know that? Because I was around for the first time that Trump was.

[B]

Right.

[A]

Which is why some of y' all out there, that. That went in that booth and did that. Like, it leads me to believe that you want that.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

You got Elon Musk tweeting now. You see the Elon Musk tweet.

[D]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Solidarity.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

[A]

What?

[E]

That's the only way he said white solidarity.

[D]

He reposted someone saying it. But yeah, basically saying, white people have to stick together.

[E]

White solidarity stick together.

[A]

This is crazy. I don't know why we always ask him so shocked. Right?

[B]

Yeah, you're right.

[C]

I mean, he did do the Hail Hitler salute.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

Just said something like that. You don't have to be afraid of.

[B]

To be a white man anymore. You don't gotta apologize for being white.

[E]

Thing is a joke.

[D]

The tweet said, if white men become a minority, we will be slaughtered. Remember, if non whites openly hate white men while white men hold a collective majority, then they will be 10. I'm sorry. 1000 times more hostile and cruel when they are a majority over whites. White solidarity is the only way. And he Goes on. But that's the point.

[A]

See, when I hear that, I do take that as white guilt.

[B]

Not me.

[D]

I think it's white fear because they always scare.

[B]

Take that as white cruelty.

[E]

That's all it is.

[B]

People don't have a history of tormenting white people. My. No, white people have a history of torment.

[A]

White guilt.

[B]

No, because.

[A]

Because they know what they did. They're projecting and they feel like if we are ever outnumbered because of what we did, they're going to do that.

[D]

See, I. I think that's logical, but I think you're giving white people too much credit.

[B]

I think you're giving them.

[D]

I think it's more like the nigga that's robbing everybody who knows, like Omar from the Wire. At some point you might get robbed. Not cause you feel guilty. That's just the natural order of things. They worry that black people are gonna do the same shit to them that they did to black people. I don't even know if there's guilt attached to it. I think it's more like I wanna protect my interests, period. The whole.

[A]

And not all white people may be the wrong word.

[D]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

Guilt may be the wrong word.

[E]

That's like thinking all the way into it.

[C]

It's all intertwined, the guilt and the fear.

[D]

And some do feel guilt, but, you know, but a lot of it is just like, we're losing the country. The whole Trump discourse is we're losing the country. No more immigrants because we're losing the country. No more mixed marriages because we're.

[A]

No more abortions.

[D]

All these things are weird, right? We need white purity. And that's why all these policies are geared toward protecting white interest and everything else, expense.

[E]

And that's the thing. If, you know, for you not to be somebody, just fall for things. Anytime somebody is trying to teach you something, leading with be afraid of this. Most of the time, it's a liar.

[B]

It works. Most presidential campaigns are run on. On fear for sure. And they win. Yo, we are scared of these people. These are the people that we need to be afraid of. So vote this way. Most person be tough on them.

[D]

Yeah, like they're taking your jobs, they're taking your life, they're taking your identity, they're taking your money. All that.

[B]

Now they just out here like, yo, if you go against the grain, I'mma you up. Now it's on some mafia like, yo, I'mma you up. So yeah, that's what they on. Trump wants a mama punch you in your face if you step over that line, bro. A lot of. A lot of Republican politicians don't with him. He's instill fear in them. But, you know, you better. They are scared of him.

[D]

They hate him, but they get in line.

[E]

Yes.

[B]

Out of fear. All these companies, everything. Y' all know what time it is.

[E]

He's very vicious. He get. He. He's not. He'll just let it go. He remember every little thing, everybody. He's so addictive.

[D]

I know we gotta wrap this up, but the, the thing that I think is important. Important. And why I'm so glad we talk about this on this show is so that there's a living memory that this happened. Because, you know, there's a book by this guy Omar Al Akad who says one day Omar Al Aqad or Akkad, but he said one day everyone will have been against this. He was talking specifically about Gaza, but I think it's true for everything. All this fucked up shit. 20 years from now, the same people who are saying nothing are gonna pretend that they were against this. Just like you can't. You don't meet a lot of white people. Yeah, I was blocking the schools and letting black people.

[A]

You don't meet a lot of people.

[D]

Like everybody acts like they were against it at the time. That's why we need shows like this. That's why we need our voices loud like this. Because we need to remind the world that, yo, that's not how that shit went down.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

So I'm glad we did.

[B]

It's a good point.

[E]

And that is a good thing about everything being on camera. All them angles they got, it is new. So regardless if he gets off, he don't get in trouble. We all know what happened. It doesn't matter what. And that's why you know that the people that repeat it and push it around, because they, They're, They're, They're. What is it? Willfully ignorant. They don't want to see. They walk around like this, right? You see that from 50, 000 angles. And it's still somebody that's going to say, well, she shouldn't even have went there. Why was she there? She should have went in the house.

[A]

Scary times that we in Rest in peace. To Renee, Nicole. Good. Rest in peace. Praying. Praying for y' all in Minneapolis.

[E]

ICE or.

[D]

And the immigration zone.

[B]

Not you.

[D]

My name. No, no, no.

[C]

[B]

[E]

[D]

You just freeze now.

[C]

Yeah, he freeze.

[B]

Yeah, I'm freezing now. Ice.

[E]

Damn, that's deep word.

[A]

Get us some music real quick. There we go, man. Real quick. Real quick. Also, while I'm at it, rest in piece. Keith Porter. Keith Porter. Which is the black man that Ice killed on at the end of the year? Oh, I ain't in front of his door. They coming to your doorstep. Coming to your doorstep to do it to you on your block.

[B]

Think about you kill somebody in front, send a message. Yeah. Your parents get killed in front of you. It creates what we create in other countries.

[D]

Yes.

[A]

[B]

That's a good one.

[C]

[E]

[D]

How much weight have you lost?

[E]

Where the did you get that from? Ish. Is that Google boo? I need to know you gonna for.

[B]

[B]

It says about a quarter inch of visible length per every 30 to 35 pounds lost.

[E]

[B]

About a quarter of an inch of visible length per every 30 to 35.

[D]

How much weight have you lost?

[E]

God damn.

[A]

Oh, I haven't been on scale.

[D]

You look about £20.

[B]

You've been on a scale.

[D]

Get the.

[B]

So you got at least.

[D]

You got at least £20.

[A]

I ain't been on on the scale since it said 225. And I think I'm Less than that right now.

[E]

[A]

Yeah, you wondering. I was going to ask you.

[D]

He want to know bad inch makes your that different.

[E]

I was going to take one for the team.

[B]

You might add something to the list.

[E]

But they don't have a problem asking.

[A]

And then. And on that note, we will discuss new music. On that note, we will discuss. We will discuss brand new slaps that came out just the other night. And listen, surprise, surprise. Nobody that we thought was dropping on Thursday dropped on Thursday.

[C]

I didn't think anybody was dropping on Thursday.

[A]

[B]

Ain't nobody. I don't think neither one of them driving without no.

[A]

But again, January, February is for the Ari Linuxes and.

[B]

Nah, that's not true. Cole's been dropping in January.

[A]

Well, he's a cheat code. He shouldn't be doing that. He should leave the space for the.

[B]

I get why. Because they be like, yo, we know.

[A]

Cole should not be doing.

[B]

When Cole do his surprise drop, it's usually around the genuine.

[A]

He shouldn't do that. That's up.

[B]

[C]

That's a very big difference.

[B]

Hey, listen, I was wrong. I'm not y'.

[E]

All. It happens to the best of us, my brother.

[A]

It definitely was wrong before one year. Damn that Bruno Mars.

[C]

This should been have slap.

[D]

You liked it?

[C]

I liked it.

[B]

February, I'm still.

[E]

You stepped inside with a vibe I ain't never seen. Yes, you did.

[B]

Dancing on the Bahamas right now I you told.

[A]

Oh, here you go. Here you go. All right. Hey, hey.

[D]

Show me now, show me now, show me now?

[E]

Cause when I take it to the floor you gotta get down? You know what to do do.

[C]

I love this.

[B]

That is fun.

[A]

That is brand new Bruno Mars. That record is called I just might.

[B]

His voice sound a little funny, but.

[E]

I don't like it at all.

[B]

That's all I don't like.

[E]

I'm not a big Bruno.

[D]

First time I heard it, I was not liking it at all. I heard it from the. Hey, Mr. DJ. Forward hearing it just now from the top. I like that a lot more, actually. I actually like the song now.

[A]

I was.

[D]

I was prepared to hate and be the ISO isolated person hating n this. Fine.

[A]

So just that fast you switched up?

[D]

Well, I heard the whole song now.

[A]

Changed your mind now that some others in the room enjoyed it. Now you. You enjoy it?

[D]

No hearing the first half of the song. I like it now.

[A]

Cultish behavior guy. All right. So you. So you switch. All right.

[D]

Yeah, I'm good with that.

[E]

I don't like it.

[C]

We got a February 27th release date on the album.

[B]

What's the album called?

[C]

I'm a romantic.

[A]

Pay you back after this.

[B]

The.

[C]

The romantic.

[A]

The romantic.

[B]

We got a tour announcement.

[C]

Nine songs.

[B]

Yep. Short and concise.

[C]

Yep.

[D]

We are expecting a different song sound from this.

[C]

I mean, the video, it looks very 70s. That felt pretty 70s. So I feel like we might be getting 70s vibes from Bruno.

[A]

The conversation. The conversation. Some of the conversation with Bruno Mars is you heard one, you heard them all.

[B]

So nowadays, like, lately.

[D]

Yeah, well, that's. That's what I didn't like when I first heard the song before is that when you get to the chorus, it felt so familiar to me that it wasn't bad. It just sounded like every other Bruno Mars song I heard lately.

[B]

If it ain't broke, I get it. It was broken.

[D]

But sometimes you want something different.

[B]

When was it broken? That Anderson Pac.

[D]

The Anderson pack.

[B]

We talking about Bruno Mars, not Bruno and Anderson Paak. I want people to separate the two. So the people's last recollection of Bruno putting something out is with Anderson pack. And it was. Let me finish. It was a project that we was all waiting for, like everybody for a year, damn near a year and some changes. They were teasing it, teasing it, teasing it. And then when people got it, it was underwhelming, to be honest, outside of the records. So now if that's your last Bruno project and now you put this shit out that is mimicking 70s vibes, it's going to give people the same exact, like, emotional response. And I like that song. I didn't take that. I like that song.

[D]

That's how I felt again with the chorus when I heard the whole song. Now, it's more musically interesting than that. And it doesn't sound like it's the exact same place he was last album. And that's why I liked it more. And the vocals sound better to me, but I'm hoping all nine songs are consistent in terms of the 70s vibe, but are better than the Anderson Paak album.

[B]

I'm not even comparing this to the Anderson Paak album.

[D]

Again, I get why you're not.

[B]

I'm comparing Bruno to Bruno. So his last project, which was, I believe, nine songs, his last project, 24 Karat Movie Magic. Damn near classic album to me. It was amazing, amazing, amazing. And that was more. Was 80s vibes.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

So if you. If you can do that for an entire project, you've already shown me you can. You can give me a decade.

[A]

It's 24 Karat Magic is 10 years ago.

[C]

Close to it.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

What's the problem? Yeah, 10 years.

[B]

What's the problem?

[A]

2016.

[B]

So for the last decade, the only two projects that people are 24 Karat.

[A]

Magic and Silk Sonic. Let's not act oblivious as to why people are saying what they're saying about Mars.

[B]

And that's what I'm saying. I get that point. My point is, again, I don't hold Silsonic to him like y' all do.

[A]

Okay? So. All right, take that. Take that out. So 10 years ago go you. You did this. Correct. And now 10, with a different genre.

[B]

With a different decade.

[A]

That says you, to the casual listener, this sound some old familiar. Yeah, you. You back with a old band. You back with the old band outfits. You back with that sound. And I think the production be productioning. So I Don't really want to get to that again. Shout out. But. But what they choose to do to it and how they choose to present Bruno Mar. I'm not mad at somebody that says he comes off like a caricature of himself. Yeah, that's what it sounds like. When do we get like. And I'm not saying this because objectively I'm not saying it yet, but it's.

[D]

Starting to look like a bit.

[A]

But yeah, it looks like a bit. That's what they're saying.

[C]

I'm stepping into a character. I feel like he always steps into a character.

[E]

Yeah, from the beginning.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. But it's always a similar character. It's always. That's what the problem is.

[C]

It has been lately.

[A]

Lately.

[D]

Yeah, lately.

[C]

But we'll see, we'll see, we'll see.

[B]

And again, if the last character bit you did worked, I'm not mad at it. If you did it and the didn't work and it was trash. If 24 Karat Magic album was trash and you came back and tried to do this again, I'm like, yo, my, what we doing? It didn't work the first time you.

[A]

Did him some type of Bruno Mars pass. Yeah, you're giving him a brutal Mars.

[B]

It's not. If you do the same thing. You can't. Y' all understand this is Jim and pop rock album.

[A]

You can't.

[B]

I do. That's like artists that rappers that'll do a joint project with this person over here. I'm not taking that the same way. I'm taking your solo discography. That's a one off.

[A]

I don't think any artist should take 10 years in between projects and it sound the same.

[E]

That's crazy.

[D]

Yes, that's.

[E]

It's crazy.

[C]

But this doesn't sound like 8024 karat to me.

[B]

No, it don't.

[E]

But it's.

[B]

But I get what people are saying. You're still using an older style.

[D]

Also, when I first heard it, I saw the video with it and when you listen to it with the video.

[C]

Yeah, it really starts to feel. I didn't see the video.

[D]

I didn't see the video.

[A]

Oh, the video looks like Silk Sonic without Anderson.

[D]

And that's what I was hating. That's what I said. I heard that little part, the Mr. DJ part and I watched that video. I was like, oh, this is the same. It looked, it felt like an outtake from the last album.

[E]

Got it. For people that are not fans, it always sounds good and it looks good, but it's just like it's the same thing.

[A]

But if you're just talking about a good song.

[C]

I put the shit on the car was in a good mood. It was.

[A]

This is a good song. And it's going to feel good when this on. And it's. And it's gonna work. It's gonna be played in this elevator of the Satai. It's gonna be. You're gonna hear it. He announced the tour right after stadium tour. So they have a projection what this is about to look like the band is gonna kill it. Like it's gonna be all of the things. Yeah, we all gonna be.

[B]

Ice will be at that stadium.

[D]

Before.

[A]

I said he is.

[D]

What happened? Tell us. Break it down.

[B]

He's about to start his trial.

[D]

This good Joe's a piece of is what happened.

[A]

I'm not even in this. I'm not even. Man. I'm reading. Go ahead.

[D]

It's not about you. It's.

[A]

All right.

[B]

I'm lost.

[A]

Yo, yo, I'm lost too.

[B]

We.

[A]

Me and Mark are doing that thing where black people just look at each other and start laughing. I don't know what the is going on.

[E]

I wanted to say has a. Oh, God.

[D]

Look what you did now.

[A]

See what happened now she's talking again. Look now. Now she's back the to.

[E]

Do you know how bad we need if I worked at the mall? Like how many I need any pretzels? I would like up like Bro at the mall. Listen, let me get into it real quick. Bro at the mall.

[A]

You could just walk around the jo.

[E]

And get little pieces of sausage and general toast.

[A]

You hear me?

[E]

I'm not saying. I'm saying if I work at the mall, I'm going the game.

[D]

I'mma eat a cinnamon or two too. She did say General.

[E]

General toso. I hate these.

[A]

That's his name.

[E]

Now is racist.

[B]

That's his name. Little toso. General. So okay. He was only a lieutenant bro.

[E]

The point I was making is I would have a really hard time maintaining my figure if I work that close to a food court. You know what I mean?

[C]

It's tricky.

[E]

Come on.

[A]

And if you didn't. Right.

[E]

Dubai Chocolate. Come on.

[A]

I haven't had that.

[C]

I heard that's good.

[B]

Oh, it's so good. Bar Sa. Oh, God. Saros.

[A]

Let's talk about how good pizza can be right now.

[E]

No, Dubai Chocolate is what me and Parks was talking about. I've recently really enjoy it with the pistachio. Cream. It's delightful.

[C]

Delightful to die for.

[E]

You know, at the mall you get all those kind of silly little desserts.

[C]

And this is true.

[A]

I'm gonna send you to work at the mall.

[D]

I love them all.

[A]

Fellas.

[E]

Go ahead. Come on, let's get out of here.

[A]

What was we saying?

[D]

So, LA Reid, his trial began. Issue was breaking it down.

[A]

It did not begin.

[B]

It's about.

[D]

I don't know, I'm just trying to change the subject from General Oso and.

[B]

White chocolate and pistachio cream.

[A]

Go ahead, intro, Intro topic. What is he?

[C]

What's he.

[B]

What's he on?

[D]

Trouble just to see what that would look like. That's what I want to do.

[A]

Hey, Bo.

[B]

Yeah, Mute up for a minute.

[C]

I was asking.

[B]

Yeah, now I'm cool.

[A]

We out our minds for you to intro a topic.

[B]

Yeah. So that you niggas could critique it and make jokes. You ain't right.

[A]

I don't know about what Mark is doing. I'm backing you up. I'm not.

[B]

You wasn't backing me up. You said. Yeah, I want to see that too.

[A]

He cursed me the out.

[B]

You skinny now.

[E]

You going to be treated differently. You got to watch.

[A]

That is what it is. You think I'm going to introduce a topic? You are wrong. No, cuz, I don't have all the facts.

[D]

I don't either. That's why I didn't want to introduce you.

[B]

I don't got him either.

[A]

All right, but what's he on trial for?

[B]

Essay.

[A]

No. Next month, LA Reid is going to court to face his. To. To face his accusations from. From Shorty, who's like the. The LeBron of this. The one who did.

[B]

She was his vice president.

[A]

The one.

[E]

The.

[A]

This is the same one that did Russell. Oh, I forgot her name.

[E]

What's her name?

[A]

Yeah, I think it starts with a D. It does. So LA Reid will go to court for that. I don't have any more information on it other than John Legend is said to be testifying. And I don't like when they do that. Like, don't put John Legend's name in the report. Let's hear what he's testifying about. Because now y' all make Drew Dixon. Drew. Drew Dixon? Yeah, Drew Dixon. So she's going to call. He's going to court to face that the John Legend should make it seem like something is funny when we have no idea what he's going up there to testify about.

[B]

So that's how you play the media games. Put John Legend name in it and make it almost seem like validity is there.

[A]

Right.

[B]

Even. I'm not saying there is no validity. I'm just saying maybe.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Like, because they said that LA Black balled her.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And they said that that was one of the factors in signing, I think John Legend or something like, to that effect.

[E]

Oh, okay.

[D]

She was a big A. And I know Drew very well. She's. She's a friend. I. I've heard the story before and.

[A]

You always friends.

[D]

Objective on this, but.

[A]

He'S always friends with the victim.

[E]

It's starting to get a little weird.

[A]

You know, mad victims. Yeah.

[D]

Well, I met her through her advocacy. The HBO movie came out. We became friends after the HBO movie. Yeah. But I don't know. I just don't know details about the LA Reid case. I knew more about the Russell Simmons stuff. That's why I'm saying I don't know enough about this.

[B]

To that shoulders is big boy who Mark.

[D]

I'm here. I'm here to support. We know, to support anybody who needs support. But shout out. Shout out to Drew for being courageous enough to tell her story. I don't know what's gonna happen. This is a civil trial trial. Correct. So that was important to know because when people hear he's on trial, people might think he's facing criminal consequences. This is all civil. She was blackballed from the industry, according to her, and I believe her. I can't wait to hear the details. I can't wait to see all the facts come out so that justice can be done. Whatever that looks like.

[A]

Same. Same. While we're in this area, you want to talk about Rashid Rice's ex and those pictures and those allegations. Rashid Rice's ex and child's mom.

[B]

Right.

[A]

Because that's the part I was confused about in reading what the ex had to say. Like, a lot of it sounded like they could also share a child together, but it wasn't confirmed. Or maybe. Or maybe Rasheed Rice has just been there for her kids. I don't know. But either way, she's alleging there was a lot of domestic violence and she posted pictures. Kansas City Chiefs said that they are aware of. Of the situation, which doesn't mean much because when does the NFL ever give a about domestic violence?

[E]

They don't.

[C]

Rarely. Really.

[B]

No, they do once there's some video evidence. And when they have to. Yeah, that's. That's when they care.

[C]

But even then, they don't care that much.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, they don't care unless it gives the league a black eye. Gives the Team a black and even.

[C]

Then they care for four games.

[E]

I think the worst DV I've ever seen on video comes from a football player.

[C]

Yeah.

[E]

The one that comes to mind is the elevator.

[C]

But then there was the jets player too.

[A]

Oh, that's not the worst you've ever seen from NFL player at all?

[B]

Oh, man, not at all.

[E]

That's wrong.

[B]

Not even close, actually.

[E]

Really?

[B]

Yeah. No. So he basically went to trial for the 2024 car crash.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

He got 30 days jail time, five years deferred probation. He had to pay restitution of 115,000 to the victim victims. And if he successfully completes his probation, it could be up in 2026.

[A]

Allegedly.

[E]

What? That's sweet. As.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I wonder if the new charges.

[A]

This is. This is the quote from the young lady. Domestic awareness warning. I'm so tired of keeping quiet. I'm so tired of protecting his image. I've been through too much in a span of eight years and I've had enough. I've dealt with abuse for years. Me and this man decided to break up a couple months ago. And since then it's been nothing but hell. He's very controlling. There's been times he's came to my new home, broken my door. There's been times when he would put his hands on me while I was pregnant. Even had the audacity to lock me outside all night in 10 degree weather because he got caught cheating. He's cut up all my shoes and clothes, leaving me with nothing because he's got caught up. And there's multiple instances of cheating. But besides that, I'm just tired of him not doing right by my boys. See, that's the part. It's not fair. He doesn't. He doesn't call them. He rather be laid up with hoes. He literally left us in Kansas and I had to beg him to send money so that I could drive to Texas with my friends and all of our stuff. We have an agreement. Because of everything he's put me through and he still doesn't follow it. He's now trying to remove me and my kids from for no apparent reason. I've known this man for years. He tries to put on this Persona like he's dad of the year. He does the bare minimum and I have to beg for that. I protected his image for too long and I'm done doing that. It's time to protect my peace, protect my children, and stand up for myself. End quote.

[E]

I don't know if you know, but the most dangerous point of a relationship that has violence in it is when you try to leave. Yeah, that's the most dangerous part if you know things that she's saying is true. For me it's hard, it's hard not to believe stuff. When they back it up with pictures. I know that some people get it. I feel like some people don't like when they include things like oh he's putting us out the house or whatever. People like to minimal min. Minimalize stuff. Like it's just about money or like the almost like paint this picture that women are just money hungry or whatever. But I think it's because people don't understand how abuse works with money. Financially.

[B]

Financially it's a control thing. And so my point is thoughts and prayers to the young lady and their family. I think sooner or later, and I don't want. I'm not victim blaming at all. I just think that sooner or later we have to start being cognizant that when you give up financial control to a man, it's a form of abuse like they can control. She said, yo, I ain't even have money to drive from Kansas City to Texas to go with my peoples. Which means you are giving somebody the ability to literally control your life and you got to succumb to whatever the they put. They put you through.

[E]

But they have children.

[C]

I don't believe so.

[E]

Huh.

[C]

They have children.

[B]

I don't know cuz she, she never specifies their boys.

[D]

She like our boy. So I think it's her kids. He's has some kind of.

[E]

Those are his children.

[D]

I don't know anymore than what he just read, but the way it sounded. She always like he's not, not doing right by my boys or he's, you know, he's in community my kids as opposed to his kids. Which is usually what you would say.

[B]

I'm looking at these pictures for the first time like. And I don't care.

[D]

Like it's indefensible.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I, I saw. It's up. Yeah, I didn't see them until literally I'm like, it's really up.

[D]

How does the lead. And this is where it gets tricky because I, I think we all believe her and we all. I don't think that's in question. I think the question is as a matter of policy, how does the league deal with something? Especially when it didn't just happen. Right? Like if you say something happened two months ago and you announce it to the league, hey, this person harmed me two months ago. Does the league step in and suspend and if so what's the timeframe where the league can step in for shit that happened before? Well, I think they should too. But I'm just saying as a matter of policy, you have to set a rule. You have to set a rule that makes sense for each case so you can have some consistency. And so I don't know how that. How that will play out.

[B]

If it was two months ago, three months ago, once this shit happened and we see you did it, you should still be able to be punished for.

[D]

Oh, I agree 100% but I think.

[A]

That'S gonna be the legal operate by the chart legal charges.

[B]

Yeah, right.

[D]

Yeah, right.

[A]

That's when they seem to jump in and do whatever they're supposed to do.

[B]

I think even with them it's a hypocritical thing because it'd be a case of by case basis.

[D]

Cause Ray Rice was on the elevator and it didn't matter if there was a case or not. You saw that.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

And like I said, it was bad for business.

[B]

That's when they motivated the league is business first.

[D]

But this is also bad for business because of the picture. So that's what I'm saying. The league needs to have a policy that's consistent. And I believe and Joe's right, the law is like the thing that makes it like incontrovertible. Right. You're charged, so we're using the law as our out. But at some point the league has to make a moral decision and, and.

[B]

Honestly I think if Kansas City was still in the playoffs, the league takes this. The league treats this differently right now.

[D]

Oh, that's interesting.

[C]

I don't know if that's true cuz I think we just saw with the Stefan Diggs and who's their defensive end that there's two charges against pictures players. They're not suspended or.

[B]

But again I'm talking about once there's nothing you can't defend like pictures, videos, right. We act like now it's like okay, we can't give you no. No wiggle room in this YouTube.

[A]

They don't be acting off.

[B]

They don't give a about that. And you could defend yourself against them.

[A]

Listen, I didn't mean for us to. To do all of this. I just wanted to say what was going on. Prayers to the young lady.

[B]

Prayers to the young lady and the children. You know what I'm saying? The children too. Like this is nuts.

[C]

A lot of with race.

[A]

Rashi raised a. It's a lot of great receiver but.

[B]

Yeah, I Was just reading from college.

[A]

Absolute.

[C]

It's a long list.

[D]

On a lighter sports note, it's just been announced that the Memphis Grizzlies are open to and trying fairly aggressively to trade John Moran by the All Star break.

[B]

Yeah, that's old.

[D]

Yeah, but before, it was like, a rumor. They've publicly confirmed it, which means they trying to pull the trigger.

[A]

N. They. They've been trying to trade. This they've been trying to get rid of.

[B]

They said he want to go to Brooklyn.

[A]

I know they just announced it. I saw it.

[B]

But I already want to go to Brooklyn.

[A]

I could care less about where John Moran wants to go. I'm off.

[B]

I'm past that at this point.

[D]

Be careful what you asked for. You saw what happened with homeboy Trey. He wanted out, and he ended up in Washington. Like, sometimes you think you go.

[A]

You think you want. I don't think that's that bad either way.

[B]

I think that's. He want Washington. I think that's great.

[D]

Nobody wants Washington.

[B]

That's not true.

[A]

That's not true.

[D]

You think so?

[B]

Yes.

[A]

John Wall won in Washington.

[B]

And Andre.

[D]

I'm sorry.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Fam and Trey. Washington got a young nucleus of players. They got a ton of salary money to spend. Like, they.

[A]

They're gonna have a. Well, if we're into the Knicks, we hope they don't have a top eight draft pick, but they're tanking. So they have a top eight draft pick. Listen, when they played the Knicks, I came here, and we're not doing sports. Jesus. But when they played the Knicks, I came in here and said, yo, I. I don't know about who those Wizards was, but there's a lot of young boys. That's nice, talented people on that team.

[D]

See, what I heard was. And I know we're not doing. I'm just saying I heard he wanted to go to a contender right now, and that's what I'm talking about. I heard he wanted to go to a contender. Now, I'm not dissing Washington. I'm just saying it seemed like he wanted to go somewhere where he could win right away. But if that's not true, then Washington's a great place.

[B]

Great city.

[A]

Great city.

[B]

If I'm him, I'm not mad.

[D]

Socially, he'll have a ball.

[A]

D.C. is fucking. D.C. is New York, Miami.

[B]

Nigga, I left Atlanta and went to.

[A]

D.C. d.C. Is New York, Miami. D.C. is. You get to call. You going to D.C. but from Atlanta.

[D]

That's what he was in Atlanta. It wasn't like he was in New Mexico.

[B]

It's a sidestep. Damn near. I ain't losing like, but again, I.

[D]

Heard he wanted to go to a playoff team. That's all I was saying.

[A]

And now we spent five minutes on two niggas I can give a fuck about. Anyway, we are off of John Morant and Trey Young.

[D]

What? Your other boy then who? Zion?

[A]

Oh, my Lord. Yo. Yes. Let's do it.

[B]

He's back.

[D]

Like he never left.

[A]

See, last week they had Zion name in some only fans model mess with some. Oh, no, he might maybe was hitting actresses or whoever he was hitting. It was the DMs they leaked. I didn't know if they were real or not cuz the Zion was saying in those dm, I just. I just put it in my. This has to be AI. This has to be fake. So I didn't talk about it.

[B]

You said about your homegirl and.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And now he's back. What is. What is he doing now? All I. Every time I see him, it's just with mid and all I ever see is him and Mid, which is weird. You've been in New Orleans your whole career.

[B]

Oh, Mid could be his fire.

[A]

Yeah, he's into mid.

[C]

Oh, the last one was Sydney Sweeney and it turned out to be fake.

[A]

I wasn't talking about that one.

[B]

No, no, no, no, no.

[A]

I wasn't talking about a Sydney Sweeney one. I'm done with her too. She's another one. I'm done with titties. Or not.

[C]

Fair enough.

[B]

They nice though.

[A]

Yeah, yeah.

[E]

You yelled about them titties for a goddamn.

[A]

But it was the dress. It was the push up. I was horny. I ain't seen my girl. Sometimes you sometimes don't really talk about sometimes you gather yourself and you come back to that late night follow with your normal eyes. Hell yeah.

[B]

Once you get the sh out with your.

[A]

With your unlusty eyes, you be like.

[B]

What the fuck off my face.

[A]

You don't get the fuck off my shit.

[E]

Clarity.

[A]

That's a real thing. Exactly what it is.

[B]

Yes, it's definitely a thing.

[A]

It is definitely clear clarity. Yeah.

[B]

Pulse. Horny.

[A]

What's Zion do now?

[D]

Apparently he's accused of yet another paternity situation. Dope chick, 69.

[C]

Oh, her.

[B]

See? See right there?

[D]

Yeah. She's an adult content creator. Creator?

[E]

No.

[D]

So she's an artist.

[C]

Oh, he's got a style.

[D]

She says that he could be the father of her child. She's requested. She's requested a DNA test.

[A]

And then there was the other clip of the girl video recording him. Recording him in. In what looked like his home or his space or. And talking in the video fireplace on. They was having a little nighting, a little up the.

[B]

Put something on the screen or whatever.

[A]

Yeah, he's just a doof.

[B]

Like, he don't even know that. That conversation sounds like you want to.

[A]

School him and help him. But she's. She's not hiding it. I'm taping you. I'm saying your name. I'm putting this out as.

[C]

You can't show him her. He doesn't watch porn.

[B]

I'm just.

[C]

That's like sneaking the bacon in a sandwich is wrong.

[D]

This isn't porn he's showing me.

[C]

Oh, okay.

[B]

Yeah, it ain't.

[D]

However.

[A]

However what I.

[D]

Well, let's do this.

[B]

Everybody's taste is different.

[D]

Yes.

[A]

Y' all do all that and then come back with everybody.

[B]

So for this young country, this might be his fire. It might be mid to you. You a from New York City. This might be his fire.

[D]

It's relatively mid. But I get what he sees. I get why he fucks with it. If that's his twist, I get why.

[E]

He would see that mid on a lonely, cold night.

[D]

But you should have had a lonely cold nights as a multi millionaire in New Orleans.

[A]

Well, there's nothing wrong with a little mid. Every man in the world has had a little mid we on his ass because all we've seen is mid.

[E]

Yeah, maybe that's his twist.

[A]

We never saw you step out with one fire night. You know how many road games there is in fucking the NBA?

[C]

Oh, over the country.

[B]

I'm sure he got fired up. The fire just shutting the up. I don't believe that or not. Oh, I'm finding the mid there in the mid there in the mid there in the mid there.

[A]

Mariah Mills was fired to him, which is why he got caught up. That was the fire.

[E]

M had better personality.

[A]

Better.

[B]

The fire that he's giving 40,000amonth is shutting the up.

[A]

Yo, then it was the girl that started posting the cash apps that he was sending.

[D]

She did this too. Dope chick just showed his. They only said for two grand.

[E]

Damn.

[A]

Do you think that men.

[B]

Look, listen to that.

[A]

Two grand.

[B]

Two grand. You talking about the fight for 40. No, two grand.

[A]

See?

[B]

Get it done.

[A]

Dude, you can't be talking to me.

[B]

No, not you.

[A]

I'm the king of 2500 will get you a good time. He just is shopping in the wrong places. He's at the wrong spots. If he was in New York but that's. You know what? I can't even say that that's not true. Cause I done been in starlet plenty of night. Where after the game.

[C]

Game?

[A]

These tall Doofy come in here with a 12 pack of Mid, bro. Like, it ain't like the old days no more.

[C]

Little BBL gets it done nowadays.

[D]

Yeah, true.

[A]

So what?

[B]

I ain't saying nothing.

[A]

It be bad, yo. And they don't know me, cuz. Pump it up was so long ago. So I just be sitting there like a non famous person looking at these like, yo, my God, yo, what are you doing? What are you doing? I know the whole bench. So. Nigga, you think you hiding? Cause you the 10th man off the bench? I know you. I see you.

[C]

You gotta figure out how to become like a mentee to these young.

[D]

That's what I was gonna ask y'.

[B]

All.

[D]

Like, especially Joe. And maybe.

[B]

Don't say y', all, nigga.

[A]

No, nigga, don't say y'.

[E]

All.

[D]

No, no, I'm serious. Like, Zion, this could be a moment of intervention. He needs an intervention. And we're not gonna fly to New.

[C]

Air's like a general manager, like. Like Joe to like.

[E]

Yeah, yeah, Mitch, the intervention about the midness or just the loose.

[B]

How you moving, bro?

[D]

What does he need to know? That's my question. What does Zion need to know? We do Fix my company. Fix my. How do we fix.

[C]

Fix your prostitute game.

[E]

Fix my trick game.

[A]

Boom.

[B]

See, that's where I'm. Fix my holes.

[A]

What?

[D]

That's the wrong approach.

[B]

Crazy.

[D]

Don't fix the holes. Fix Zion. This is like your area of expertise.

[A]

This is not my expertise at all.

[D]

No, I mean, you don't fall into his traps, so how can he be.

[A]

Yeah, but you could.

[D]

But that's what I'm saying. Give him the advice.

[B]

Give him the game.

[D]

Like you.

[B]

Yeah, I get what they say.

[A]

Oh, I can't.

[D]

I'm.

[A]

I'm happily in love. Seven years with my girl.

[B]

My almost eight.

[A]

Escort days are behind me. No, almost seven. I'm just getting ahead of it. My escort days are behind me. I don't know where you find them, what they cost. I don't know what type of services they offering. That was the thing, too, back when.

[B]

I was living wild.

[A]

Before I got with my girl and before my baby mom, before, like my last three relationships and I was doing the whole escort thing and seemed like a vibe and fun. After the strip club, then them start doing crack in the bed. It's like in the morning, you ain't slept. Y' all smell like all the drinks from Squeeze. How do you just happen to have some crack on you? And my bed is beautiful. My bed ain't the bed that makes that the crack bed. Oh, oh. I had something in my coat.

[B]

Hey, yo, yo.

[D]

When they smoke. I've had it happen to me before. When they smoke crack in your house. It's time you know you made a bad choice the night before.

[A]

And I'm saying I didn't say a crack. But it's coke and a lot of.

[D]

No, I meant crack.

[E]

What's happening?

[A]

It wasn't crack because you need. You need utensils to do crack.

[D]

Shorty was in my house and she said yo, do you mind if I bump real quick?

[E]

That's not crack. Yes, we are.

[D]

You thought she pulled out a crack pipe. It's going to crack. I'm with you.

[E]

But she called it a bump.

[D]

Yeah, that's what me up. So I thought she was about just have a line. Yeah, yeah.

[A]

It's too many. I'm sorry, Mark. It's too many of them escort ladies that do think it's erotic for during the threesome to pull out the coke and pour it on themselves.

[B]

No, the white boys be sniffing coke off ass.

[A]

Sniff it off. Had a girl sniff it off your dick like they think, they think this is like a thing.

[C]

I mean it is.

[A]

White boy.

[D]

Let's not be hasty.

[C]

Theoretically I could have been imagine where that could be a vibe hypothetically.

[E]

My God. Or throwing it up her.

[C]

I'm not going to partake but if she were to maybe, you know, whatever. Anyway, I don't want to go.

[A]

I was judging her cuz she, she like I said, she broke day like so you go from the strip, you.

[C]

Don'T sleep off that.

[A]

But I feel like if you about to do mad bumps of coke and stiff it off some, you should just took a nap first. Or have your morning face on your morning eyes. You look look like 12 midnight at 8am it's not a sexy look.

[C]

Waking wake and bump.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

They are probably accustomed to the man. That's their life with them. Yeah.

[A]

And then you think in the air to with your ego a little bit because you'd be like it's 8 in the morning. These ain't slept. I should be able to find a to sleep with that some cuddles. It's not a cokehead. She up.

[C]

She just squirming around.

[A]

Yeah, she just up naturally. Like get out of here. Then they fall asleep at noon in your bed.

[C]

Yeah, sleep till.

[B]

At 9:30. Got to go back to work.

[C]

Talk about breakfast.

[A]

It's dark out, yo. Them days is dark. I don't wish it upon any man out there. Well, now in your 40s, anyway. What else, what else, what else, what else? What else is important?

[D]

So Diddy. Donald Trump confirmed that Diddy did write a letter to him asking for a point pardon. And he said no. He said he won't even consider it.

[C]

Shocker and shocker.

[A]

Wait, what?

[B]

Which one is the shocker?

[C]

Shocker. I'm like, neither side of those are shockers.

[B]

I was.

[D]

I was a little shocked that he outed it like that.

[B]

Yeah, that's.

[D]

So that's not shock. That was the only part I cared about. It was like, of course, if you in jail, you going to ask Trump for a pardon, and if Trump ain't got nothing to get from you, he ain't pardoning you. But just matter of factly saying, yeah, he asked me for pardon.

[B]

I said I would never consider it.

[D]

Yeah, I've never considered it. Was like kind of addict.

[B]

The crazy shit is. I could see Trump saying that if Diddy ain't write the letter word.

[D]

That's a fact.

[B]

That's a good point.

[C]

It don't have to be true.

[B]

It gotta be true. I'm a safe. Another thing I could see Trump saying, I would never consider it. And six months later, giving him a pardon for sure.

[D]

All of that is possible, but it looks like he's gonna be in there.

[B]

For the long cannon, bro.

[D]

Yeah, look, he'll be in there for a long haul. And I feel respectful, responsible, not because I did anything wrong, but just because I was the one that mentioned the Donnie McClurkin story. Since we talked about the allegations and all the stuff which we don't need to rehash, Donnie has publicly made a statement saying it's not true, saying that he vehemently denies all allegations and that he's sort of disturbed that it's even being suggested that he could have done that. He gave a much longer, more eloquent statement. I'm not gonna read it, but I just want to. It's only fair to say that he's denied. I can't say that he was accused and not say that he denied it, especially given the email, him addressing it.

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[D]

So I just wanted to say that.

[A]

Is there a Donnie McClurkland version of Never would have made it. Cause you kept saying that last part.

[D]

I said it once. Cause someone else said it. It's not. He never would have Made his okay.

[A]

Thank God.

[D]

We Fall down.

[A]

Yeah. Don't do that to Marvin Sapp.

[D]

Yeah, Yeah. I love Marvin Sapp. That's my man.

[A]

Donnie McClurklan. Never would have made it if y' all skip your ass out of here.

[D]

He did. We Fall Down. Here's another one I really love, but.

[E]

It'S been a rumor stand. It's been rumors about that man forever. And in his profession, he's not really. He doesn't have the kind of job that you could just come out and say, I'm a homosexual.

[D]

It's tough.

[A]

What jobs can you do that if you work at the mall?

[B]

Yo, you want to go to the food court? My. They could have bought them all up all day. It's a bunch of jobs where you could be open, like, say, a podcast. Yeah, that's.

[A]

You're right. Oh, yeah. Podcast and being one of them.

[E]

Yeah, come on. I mean, it's. It's. It's gospel, but go. It's been rumors forever. There are some people that think that you can pray the gay away. You know what I mean?

[A]

Listen, Mark did all this. Freedom Fighter, the last part, if that's what y' all about to be. I don't have any.

[E]

Free to fight them. Free to fight them.

[A]

Free.

[E]

Nothing. But I don't. I don't need Donnie McClurgan to come out and say, that's not true. I already knew that. Was gonna say that. You know what I mean?

[D]

But you gotta. You got. We gotta get people.

[E]

You know what I mean? He's in a little bit of a pickle. Allegedly.

[D]

Another. Another story. That's.

[A]

Get it.

[D]

Another.

[A]

Enough of y', all, Philly. Enough of y' all for a second.

[E]

Oh, that's Tiana. That's my girl. It's my dog.

[A]

This is Tiana covering Cherish today. Of course, you figured that out by now.

[E]

She that up.

[A]

This is hard. Shout out to the band. Always the band. Always the band. The band. Hey, Tiana Taylor, if you're listening, I need this in my phone mp3 immediately. Immediately, immediately, immediately. If not sooner. Last week we were talking about. I'm. I'm. I'm reserving judgment because I've yet to see Marty supreme. But last week, we spoke about Timothee Chalamet winning the Critics Choice Award for Best Actor. And I said, like an objective dumbass, I gotta wait to see it. I gotta wait to see how that looks. Totally forgetting until I got home. That movie came out 45 minutes ago. Yeah, yeah, dog. Knock it the fuck off. Yo, what you mean? Knock it it off? Knock it off?

[B]

Why you saying that?

[A]

Nobody even seen this movie yet.

[B]

That's what they do at the end.

[A]

Nobody saw this movie. This movie came out 45 minutes at the end. I can't. I can't fight with y' all yet because I didn't see it. But with the way Michael B. Jordan and Sinners was treated this year for what they did, boy, he better have an epic. It better be Leo Titanic. It better be Leo, Titanic and Marty Sam supreme to get better with Leo.

[C]

In all one battle after another.

[A]

But look, I'mma wait to see what happens at the Golden Globes and at the Oscars and at the Oscars, but I'm prepared to riot behind Michael B. Jordan if he don't win Nothing for those three roles that he played in that movie. Three. Not two. Three.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

Yo, why did you say the 40, 45 minute stuff like it just came out? It's a new movie. But the critics get the I was getting ready version a long time ago. The people that's voting, they get them shits. Yeah, because we, we as, as a person who used used to do a lot of bootlegging, you look forward to screener season because when they send them screeners out, we get them. And it be that ain't even in the movies yet that hit the streets and screener copy under the bottom, for.

[A]

Me, that's the same as ice being for immigrants. It's like, okay, the screener saw it earlier. Okay, we can still hide, hide some racism behind here and fall behind that. That's what it looks like.

[B]

Oh, yeah, you could do that. No, I was just saying. I was addressing the 45 minutes. That's all I was saying.

[A]

I have to wait to see the Marty Supreme. But what Michael B. Jordan did in Centers was great. If he snubbed all the way around, it's crazy.

[B]

Golden Globes would be the one to tell me. Like I said, I've never heard of these Critics Choice Awards.

[D]

I agree. Golden Globes.

[B]

The best Golden Globes. If Marty supreme or Timothy Charlemagne clean up or something like that, that's going to tell me what's going to happen at the Oscars. They usually go 1 and 1.

[A]

Just know I'm waiting to see the movie before I spend the block on this Timothy Chalamet topic. I don't want to just spew shit out because I'm black and yes, I do. But you got to do that objectively. What else, what else, what else, what else, what else? Parts. Yo, I know we are done with sports, but the Miami Dolphins football head.

[C]

Coach Mike McDaniels got fired yesterday. I'm kind of torn on it because I think that he is a good coach. I do think that he may, it may be too early for him. I think that in the next three years, depending on where he ends up. He's already interviewing with Washington, Detroit. There's rumors of the Ravens. If he ends up as an OC with one of those three teams, he was will win a Super bowl in the next three years as an oc.

[D]

Wow.

[C]

Without a question.

[A]

Hell of a oc.

[C]

He's an incredibly talented football mind.

[B]

It was some firing going around.

[C]

Now I'm hoping that this is a horrible to Miami adjacent situation, which it may be.

[A]

It's rumored to be simmer down.

[C]

I know the giant we're going to.

[A]

Be, we're going to be scrapping over. I know you guys got ties.

[C]

The owner is friends with. He had his brother Michigan. He paid for that whole situation. Um, it's going to mean really bad football for me for the next probably two seasons at the very least though. So I'm not very excited about that. New general manager, new coach. Tua's almost certainly gone. If he's not, it's not great.

[A]

So.

[C]

Yeah, it's going to be a rough couple years.

[A]

Oh yeah. Hey Tua, head to your nearest liquor store. Grab some lower shelf shit, some Henny or whatever. You don't have to hurt your knees to bend down too much to grab. Walk outside and just pour it out for yourself. It's over, big dog. It's all pour it out for yourself. You in the locker room. Talk about a fresh new start. I always love when quarterbacks up all year and then getting at that last, last post, post game interview. Yeah, I'm looking forward to a fresh start. Fresh start after we stuck by your bum ass. I don't like what these quarterbacks do.

[B]

You gotta say that in the post.

[A]

Game of the oh, snap. I meant to ask y' all about this Russell Wilson. Oh boy. Russell Wilson, that's your man. This is some of the rat ratty I've ever seen. Where's the clip? I know I have it. Here it is.

[B]

Let's hear it, man.

[A]

Oh yeah. I'm not, I'm not blinking. I know I'm capable of. I think I showed that in Dallas and I want to be able to do that again, you know, and just be ready to rock and roll and be as healthy as possible and be ready to play ball. You Know I played that game.

[C]

You know, I tore my hamstring on.

[A]

Friday in practice, the last play of practice. And I had grade two. I couldn't tell anybody. I had to go play on it.

[C]

Just because I knew the circumstance I.

[A]

Had to play on it. And no matter what, I actually ended up going to the Dallas Mavericks facility training and you know, just, you know, kept it quiet.

[C]

Just try to get treatment on it and just knowing that I probably couldn't run from the goal line to the.

[A]

10 yard line if I wanted to, but. Yo, dog, you gotta be joking. You have got to be kidding. You rat bastard. That is the last game. This is the last game. There's no more football left.

[D]

I'm missing it. I don't follow.

[B]

That's nasty.

[A]

There's no more football left.

[B]

Cause injury's supposed to be closed.

[A]

Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson is.

[B]

They tucked it.

[A]

He probably won't be back with the Giants.

[D]

No, Right?

[A]

So he's in the Giants locker room saying, I was up since this game, this week. Way back then. I didn't tell anybody. I couldn't tell anybody. That's why my performance this year has looked like that. So another team can have the hope. And now the Giants on the investigation now. Yeah. And now the Giants under investigation because why are you not disclosing this? Why the would he do that? That is nasty.

[B]

Even him trying to say, I ain't tell nobody. Like your team, though. That's why you ain't.

[A]

That is whack you, Russell Wilson. You got all the relationships in the world. When you have your interviews with these teams, just let them know what was going on. To do that in an interview, that's the rat in the shit I ever seen.

[E]

Come on.

[D]

This has a different take.

[A]

How he the main one?

[B]

That always depends. I don't have a different take.

[A]

You be against these.

[B]

I'm to trying just cra. It's crazy to me how he wants a job somewhere, right? And he wants to disclose to the world, yo, I didn't perform a certain way because of X.

[A]

That's corny.

[B]

But you could do that in the interview with.

[A]

That's corny.

[B]

Let me finish.

[A]

My fault.

[B]

Cool. I think it's corny.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

But we sat here when somebody else was doing their job and had a job to do and they went and picked a nigga out that didn't fare.

[D]

No better for them.

[B]

Yeah, like, yo, my nigga, this his job. He wanted to feel like he gonna tell the teams, yo, come look. Because teams might not look at it.

[D]

That's a little different.

[A]

Very different.

[D]

Pablo's job is to report.

[A]

Very different. Russell Wilson's job is to play football, and he's looked bad at football for a few years. So for you to know that and know that other teams know that and try to put it on some injury from a Dallas game, that's some corny shit. Man up and just say, y' all didn't perform the way I was supposed to. I'll spend the off season getting right the next season. Now, coming here, like, say that. But to throw an organization under the bus.

[D]

This is what I will say in Russell's. I'll throw him a little bit of bell. And I agree with y'.

[E]

All.

[D]

That's corny. Most athletes at the end of their career don't accept that. The problem is them. He might really believe that. The problem is the injury.

[B]

He's showing some bright spots. So, yeah, he's gonna say, yo, they're the last to get the memo.

[D]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

[B]

LeBron is out there doing some wild shit. I think LeBron need to go look at the memo. So.

[D]

And LeBron's still playing at a reasonably high level, but I'm green, which I'm saying. And still he don't got the mill. I'm agreeing with you.

[B]

Like, you know what I'm saying, so. But my point is, yo, how. How we can't stand on how a get it is how a get it. That's totally different. I think it's all goofy.

[A]

How many big contracts has Russell Wilson signed? And I'm saying this in close.

[C]

I don't want to get on two.

[A]

I think it's selfish. It's greedy, it's classless. It's nasty.

[B]

It was just nasty.

[A]

You got your money, yo. You got your money. If you playing bad, if. If you can no longer play at that level, it don't matter. You got your money already.

[D]

He don't think that, though. I know. Yeah. I know.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

That ain't for us to say. He got his money. That might want more money.

[A]

True. But to do it this way, I.

[B]

Just think it's corn.

[D]

But you know what?

[A]

Joe think it's corny.

[D]

This is consistent with what his teammates say about him. The worst. If you.

[B]

I'm not. I'm not disagreeing with you. Let's be clear. I'm not disagreeing with. I think all of that is goofy. But I'm just saying we can't pick and choose when it's goofy. And pick and choose. When it's honorable.

[D]

If you believe the worst things about Russell Wilson, this is very consistent. Like all of his old teammates sort of say this is the. This is the. We did go to point. They say this is. We're talking about. He's selfish and he puts himself.

[B]

That's what this is. This is just selfishness.

[A]

That's it.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

I also seen something to say that Travis Kelsey has a charity. And the report came back that only 41 cent of every $$ raise goes to the mission. The other 59. 59 goes to his management group. I haven't vetted it. I don't know if it's true or not, but that's the word.

[D]

I mean, a lot of charities are like that.

[B]

Yeah, that's a lot. Some be giving like 10 and 15 cent. That is a skin off the dollar. Yeah, bro, we're giving an amount. We are donating some. Yo, we pay our staff out of this money. So aunt be the president of the nonprofit foundation and that money be getting swindled through. Bro, nonprofit is a big scam. A lot of them, not all of them don't know, but a lot.

[E]

But I'm not a scammer. But I am the. The leader of the light skinned Negro foundation that I started. I also am the leader of the stroke foundation that I started.

[D]

Stroke Foundation.

[E]

Yes. Knew.

[A]

That look like. Shut the.

[E]

I call you skinny. You look. Like he caught the joke. This just be shooting for nothing. He's skinny now. He hungry as he. You know how much.

[B]

Pick up your clothes.

[E]

Oh, my God. His little medium is folded.

[A]

What else? They need our takes on takes galore today.

[E]

What else they need till we die?

[A]

Hey, that's. That's my vibe. Let's go.

[D]

Do y'.

[A]

All.

[D]

Do y' all care that Dame and Charlamagne had another round of. Of beef?

[B]

They did.

[E]

The first one was so entertaining.

[A]

It was.

[D]

First was super entertaining.

[E]

Oh, that's the one. Because that's what he kept calling them gay face to face.

[D]

Yeah.

[E]

Oh, I love it.

[D]

And then Dame recently did another interview where. Where he basically said he sent more shots to Charlamagne. Basically charlamagne got his 2 and 3.

[A]

Said way too much. Yeah, he said way too much. He went on along and they. And they gave him the space to.

[B]

Where was the interview?

[A]

Kind of. Kind of hang himself. What was that?

[B]

The talk with the young ladies. It's a show that looks like.

[D]

It's like the View if they were like a public assistant.

[E]

He said it's the welfare view.

[B]

I mean, yeah.

[D]

Have you seen the show?

[B]

I saw it, but watch that episode. I'm not going to say it.

[D]

It's not about them. It's about the production. Watch, watch it. The move, the video don't move. They say welcome to Kiki and Kiki ain't even on camera.

[B]

D Anyway, I saw it, bro. No, D was up there saying some wild. So what he said he the only man.

[E]

So you already know, you know what I mean?

[B]

They was arguing with him. D D.

[E]

He was being a little aggressive, you know how. D male and it's like anytime they gave him push back, he was just shutting them down. Plus Dame got that funny little list cuz his teeth might fall out at any time. And Dame, I'm not trying to come at you my brother. It's just he always trying to catch the. For they fly out so he get the. You know what I mean? Cause you never know when them going fly out.

[D]

But, but the thing that got him in in the issue with Charlemagne was he said basically that any. That Charlemagne's $200 million deal was partly because he made Dame look bad. In the interview he said if you look at anybody who's got a big corporate. Anybody who comes at me, they got a big corporate deal. And he was kind of tying the two together. He's like Dame. He said Jay. He said, even though Jay don't talk like the people around him do, he said he named the third person, but he was just naming people. He's basically saying if you get a.

[B]

Big deal, it's because of Dame.

[D]

You kind of almost have to come in and attack Dame to get it. And that there's a connection between those two things.

[E]

The thing that's spooky is I think when people say stuff that's that self absorbed, I feel like you have to believe that. And that's when you get to think about like psychosis. You know what I mean? Like what the. Have you slept? Because why the would demand and the machine be like that easily triggered by your name?

[D]

Well, that's what Charlamagne said in his response. And he did like a dual donkey of the day. One was to Dame. And he basically said that. He said do you really think in corporate boardrooms people are sitting around plotting we're making these nine figure deals. You really think we're talking about how can we destroy Dame Dash for me? Cause I don't.

[B]

I like both of them become this.

[D]

I just want silence. You know what I'm saying? Like I think. No, I do. Like I feel bad when I see Dame on, like, cable, the equivalent of cable access tv, you know, going over past grievances, and I feel bad watching the back and forth between people who I respect. So Dame is such a legend, and he means so much to hip hop, and he means so much to our culture. I want to make sure the world remembers him as that.

[E]

No, it's too late. Dame need to go out.

[D]

That's my point.

[B]

It's not even like it's somebody doing it. He's not helping that. Yeah, I agree.

[E]

Yeah, it let him go all the way out. He need a podcast. He need a stream. He need to go all the way out and be catching them teeth every 10 minutes. This is what he want to do, and he enjoys it. You know, that's the thing about this whole access to everybody all day thing. You really get to see who the fuck lost it. Like, literally lost their minds, you know? And me, me, me personally, I love watching the meltdown on camera. You know what I mean? Like, you know what I've been noticing a lot all year? People going into religious psychosis online.

[D]

Yeah, there's a lot of that right now.

[E]

It's a popular comedian going through it right now. It was a popular. One of those went and did it.

[D]

What is that?

[B]

You know them fraternity.

[E]

Come on.

[A]

Kappas, whatever.

[E]

God. Y' all some old, you know, the dance crazes that was out also, y' all Jersey. Y' all don't know the Wu Tangers and the.

[A]

They don't dance it.

[E]

God. That should ask Skinny Minnie. Of course he would know who's the latest ballerina.

[B]

My. You start beating on your body and wanted to know what the. They was talking about.

[D]

I thought you doing some fraternity, too. I was confused.

[A]

You.

[E]

You too.

[D]

I really thought that I was.

[E]

I thought it was a shot either way. I've noticed that all year. People that. It starts out with like, oh, y' all need to get saved. And that's how you always know when it turned. Because it goes from advice to like, you going to hell. And, you know, and they always connected with themselves like they're the Messiah. You know what I mean?

[D]

Maybe I'm getting.

[A]

Getting old.

[D]

Or maybe I'm just a nicer person.

[E]

Than I was or a potter.

[D]

No, no, I'm saying that. But it's almost like anti. This is the anti potting shit that I'm about to say. It's like, I don't want to see the public meltdowns anymore. I hate that. I hate the idea that when there's a car crash, we all stop to watch it. I'm not saying I don't watch it, and I'm not saying I don't enjoy it. I just ultimately don't think it's healthy. And I think we encourage that behavior. And I wish we could stop. Like, I mean, Dave's not. I'm not saying Dame is having a mental breakdown. I'm just. Just saying, like, what he's doing looks like a car crash to me, and I don't want to see any more of it. And when I see, like, my favorite people melting down or people I don't even like melting down, I want the world to stop. It's just like when people were showing pictures of Delonte West. It's like, why do we want to show that? You know what I mean?

[A]

Yeah, it's a little true.

[D]

But my point is that is the extreme. It's a perverse culture that we love to see the spectacle and I don't want to see no more.

[B]

One has control.

[D]

It's different, though, but it's the same impulse. We don't make those distinctions. We just like watching the motherfucker crash out. And I hate that.

[A]

Delonte west doesn't seem in control of himself for sure. Yeah, Dame. Not only does he seem very in control of himself, but because of how he's always presented for years and years and years and years and years, not only does he go out looking for it, but fans are kind of looking to serve it to him. A few things about this one. One, When I get whatever illness God may have in store, because you get what you get, that's just life. I'm going to sit up. I'm going to sit up. When I get my little bit of mensia or whatever is in my future, I'm going to be with a nurse in a bed. My microphone days and speaking so freely is over. I would think that's also true. If my dentures will keep falling out my mouth, I'm not gonna keep rushing to the camera. One, two, go ahead.

[B]

Cause.

[A]

That first Breakfast Club Charlemagne Dame interview was so big, largely in part because Dame was sunning them and saying, your workers, your workers, your workers, your workers, your workers. If you know you did that when the worker gets 200 million, you gotta shut up for second. Right, Sorry. That's just. That's just the optics. I don't make the rules. If I made them, I probably would change them. But when the OP or your op is. Is having a high level of success, it's time to somewhat humble Yourself or.

[E]

Congratulations.

[B]

Two things. One, you said when you get. And I know it's just. This is just your take on it.

[A]

When you.

[B]

And you get whatever illness you got, you going to sit up. Some of these niggas are so addicted to the fame, the being the talk of shit that they can't sit up. They chase it. Yeah. But now it's like they not talking about me. I gotta get out there and I can't let it go. I don't even think it's that.

[A]

What you think?

[B]

I think that some of these niggas are financially fucked up. And how they generate revenue and income. Income is being in front of somebody's camera so they can push their product or whatever the fuck they got going on. Some of these niggas don't have enough money to go sit up and just sail off into the sunset.

[E]

You know what I. I'm curious if you do get to a certain level, like what Joe said is a perfect scenario where you get the nurse and you take the mic away. If you don't have a certain village around you and you didn't build support in the right way, who the takes the mic?

[B]

That's true.

[E]

If you're Lou.

[B]

I mean, that's true.

[E]

Anybody that has been close to dementia. Exactly. But that's the thing. Some playing bachelor to the very some who takes the mic.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Some be control freaks. And the people around them won't even correct them because they scared of them.

[E]

They don't keep.

[B]

They don't have a foundational team around them because the second that you speak out, you're gonna get fired. You know what I'm saying? So niggas sit back and see you being a train wreck. And because they scared they're losing their position or whatever money is being generated, they'll mums the word.

[E]

That's the worst fear with this shit that I get so successful where I can't trust people around me or telling me the right thing versus telling me what's gonna bring in the paper. Cause I started out saying wild things. But these are things that I think and how I feel. So if that's how to injure engine rolls and we getting all this money, but I'm starting to talk to the wall at night. Like.

[B]

Shut up and say, yeah, that wall was tripping, girl. Yeah. Because I look to. To your dame point every time I see him, I don't see him pushing no product. No, that's not true. The time that he's pushing America new every time he gets in an Argument he'll be like, and that's why you should come look at America New New. Because we have this, this, this and this on my channel.

[D]

Even the argument he had on on the the Homegirl TV network, he reposted on America News. It didn't get a lot of views on Afro tv, which is the actual channel. He reposted on his. So even when you think he's not pushing it, he's making these controversial statements and then monetizing.

[B]

And he clipping it up, putting it on his gram. Oh yeah, I'm playing the game today then.

[D]

It's just such a.

[A]

Well, Charlamagne says that he's done replying to Dame Dash fam.

[B]

If I got a 200 mil, I'm done replying to a lot of you. Honestly, my 200 mil is my reply.

[A]

Yeah. He says it's over. Dame, I love you, but it's over. It's over, man.

[B]

That's my reply right there. No, I just, I, I, I, I really, really, really respect and admire Dame. I just wish he found a positive way in which to be presented. Even when he goes on all these platforms, he just seems like angry as. And he'd be ready to argue. Even on a women platform, he was cutting them off. He wouldn't let him speak. Like it just, it doesn't present the best picture for him. Yeah, that might be what works for.

[E]

It's never becoming of a man that you be yelling at no women or being fussy, but he is very aggressive and he does come across angry. It's a certain amount of like coolness or joke you lose when you got your emotions all attached like that. You always want to play it like you cool. Like it don't really matter either way. Once niggas know you angry to the point where every time you on camera you angry, it's like nail you to bed. That's the whole thing. That's the whole thing is like looking like you don't give a fuck that that much.

[D]

Since we talking about hip hop and sort of regrets. I kind of regret seeing Cam and Jim in this space too. It's another one where I have admiration and respect for both of them. And they going back and forth on IG and it's funny at least some of it.

[B]

That not funny no more to me.

[D]

But it's getting serious and I'm a little worried. But like, the heat jokes were funny.

[B]

No, not if you're on the opposite side of the Heat joke.

[D]

That's fair.

[B]

You know what?

[D]

I'm Saying if it's actually cold in you.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, that. You know what I mean?

[D]

Right? That's fair. I mean, the back. I guess I'm saying it's the back and forth I'm cool with as long as everybody's involved with back and forth. But when, like, Jim responded with, like, pull up, you mean y' all whole crew soft. That was the movement past jokes. And that's the part I don't want.

[A]

To say to me, no, no, you can't do this. No, you can't. No, you can't steal second base and keep your foot on first. You niggas are clearly in touch with somebody. The owner, my investor, my somebody.

[B]

Y' all know something.

[A]

Y' all know too much of my business, and y' all are sharing it publicly. That's wrong.

[B]

I agree.

[A]

So when I reply with. With you is soft. That's not where the line gets crossed.

[B]

I agree.

[D]

I'm not saying Jim is in the wrong. I'm saying, as a fan, that's not entertaining to me anymore because now I'm worried things are going to happen. I'm not saying Jim is wrong. Cam is right. I'm saying.

[E]

But Jim was never but something.

[A]

There's potential for something to happen when somebody does something to somebody that has the potential to make them want to do something to him.

[D]

Yeah, I. I agree.

[A]

This fight don't start when I punch you. It start on why I'm punching you.

[D]

I'm not disagreeing with any of that. As a fan. I'm just saying I'm entertained when they're joking. Once he said that, I knew they weren't.

[B]

See, I don't. I ain't.

[A]

They ain't been joking.

[D]

Been joking.

[A]

They haven't been joking for years, man.

[D]

Somebody said, you hear somebody IG about the heat. You still clowning, though.

[B]

Yeah, but I'm clowning you not from a place of joking. Yeah, you clowning them at their expense with reality. This ain't jokey. Joke clown. Even though what I'm saying could be funny, but I'm talking to you like that because I really don't fuck with you. And I'm poking fun at you. Yeah. Saying I don't fuck with you.

[D]

I agree.

[B]

Even if I'm trying to make light of something here, make a joke out of it.

[A]

It's still.

[B]

Yeah, I don't fuck with this nigga.

[E]

It's this. Is this like somebody made a point about dipset beef and longer than they were out. Like their beef has been longer than the actual Group.

[A]

That sucks.

[E]

That sucks from a fan perspective, for sure. Right. But I just feel like. And, you know, I don't know, maybe, you know, picking sides or whatever, but I just feel like when you have something so new, like what Jimmy got, like, it just. It just. It's coming off like, a little. I don't know how to explain it. Like, it's this new thing, and it seems to be doing well. And then you got this alleged inside information that's telling real business amounts of money and all that. It's nothing funny, hear about none of this. I'm working on this. I can put this out. Feeling it. And y' all get an inside connect. We talking about. Talking about buying it. And like, come on, bro.

[D]

I hate all.

[E]

I burn that out first before I let buy it. I promise you. I promise you it'll be real warm on that block. Cause I'll be standing in front of that and be a bonfire from that.

[A]

Like. And it always ends up resulting in. And resulting in a better good for both. Both parties. Right? I think Cam is naturally funny. I think he has. He's one of the funniest. He's got too many classic moments being funny. He's funny. Anytime you can hear Cam being funny, it's an honor to hear that he's really, really funny. It's opportunist. Jim is going to take whatever opportunity comes from some viral. You see what he did? Yo, let me show y' all a tour of my walk, y'.

[E]

All Monopolize.

[A]

Walk y' all through. Give you a two tutorial on what's going on and how I'm building this. So, I mean, yeah, see what I.

[B]

Seen with Jim, and even he told us up here and stuff, like, everything is the algorithm with him. Like, I understand the game today ain't the same game from before. I know how to play it. So, yeah, I want y' all talking about me. I want y' all joking on me. I want all of that. That could be true. But then when it's a certain person, it might hit me a bit little, little different. You know what I mean? Or a certain thing.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

I don't even know if this is the. The thing. This here talking about me a certain way. Even if you just making the joke because of what we got is different. That ain't. Now I'm not thinking about the algorithm. I haven't seen Jim pull up, pop in other people's comments. He'll pull up. You saw like. Like, the way he was talking was. I'm not Playing algorithm, joke game. Like I missed that and I went right back to old gym real quick.

[D]

I get that.

[E]

But he definitely taking advantage of the viralness. That's why he did the tour.

[B]

That happened after the fact. I said after the fact, but in the moment while I'm responding. And he left multiple comments on that.

[D]

Like he's.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, I'm really mad right now because it's you.

[D]

Well, I'm still. I'm still hoping for all this to work out.

[B]

I mean, I hate seeing this Mace.

[D]

And Cam were able to reconcile after all those years. Anything is possible. There are very few beefs of hip hop I don't think are reconcilable. You know, I think Ja and 50 is probably the one that I know ain't.

[B]

Other than that, never happening.

[D]

Other than that, I feel like anything is possible. And I'm hoping they work this shit out.

[A]

Cause as Dip said, well, let me come in and burst your bubble. There's a few other ones that you're never seeing again.

[D]

Yeah, that's true. I'm just probably not as the best.

[A]

They can die. They can not. The humans can die. The situation can die. Hovind Dame is over. Facts.

[D]

Yeah, that's true.

[A]

I can name some more of you. Let me see who else is over.

[B]

I don't know. I think Hoven Yang might be over.

[D]

Oh, that's definitely over.

[B]

That's over. That's over? Yeah, that's over.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Over, over.

[A]

Like Jim and Cam might just be one of those that's over for good.

[B]

But he might be.

[D]

As a fan.

[B]

I just hate case as men, especially coming from where we come from. Just let that go, right? Like I remember records. Jimmy, I promise we gonna get you out of 5h. Like, when I hear those songs and then see them here today, it just hurt from a fan perspective, yo, like. Like was there even if you didn't. Wasn't physically around them just in the. In their come up. The way they was just riding for each other. You hear this, you heard the brotherhood in the music. You saw them together. So now just to see them at each other like this, it's like just feel nasty.

[E]

One thing I'll say, I feel like because Cam is an Aquarius, I feel like with Cam's disses, it's a little bit of love in it. Like he always kind of tells him to grow up. He always kind of tells him, I'm disappointed that you're not grown like me. And I. I feel like for you to say that to somebody to have expectations, you have to love them for that. That's the only thing I'll say I feel like Aquarius is we cut people off. You don't even exist. So the fact that he even revisits the conversation and wants to laugh about it, I think he loves him. I don't know. On the other end, like, Jimmy doesn't give that to me. Like he has any. Like, if he does, I can't read it. But with Cam, even when he diss him, he almost dis him. Like, you little brother.

[D]

He don't want to fight him.

[B]

I get the other side.

[A]

What you do.

[B]

Like, Jim's been on this show, and he refers to Cam as my heart. You know what I'm saying? Like, I've seen Jim talk about Cam. I think with a little bit more reverence. We seen Jim cry up on Flex about. You know what I'm saying? Little tfaxin the other way around.

[D]

I think they both love each other. That's the thing. I think they both love each other. And that's why. And sometimes when men beef, we end up here. Part of his ego, some of his reasons, some of his legitimate arguments. I don't know they business enough to get into it.

[A]

See, that's the big misconception with dead in somebody for the rest of your life. Is that that mean you don't love.

[E]

Him no more, right? Word, Joe. Word, Joe.

[D]

That's true.

[B]

Y' all can wish you well from over.

[A]

Yeah, I think there's plenty of people in most of these situations. I think the two people be loving each other, but too much has occurred. But see, Joe, too much is going on. I known you since childhood. I'm an adult. I'm growing grown now. These are my grown, big boy rules. I'm not saying for them. I'm just saying I'm thinking about hov and Dame. I'm just thinking about all this. Like, yeah, whatever that was back then, it ain't that now.

[D]

See, but with Hovind Dame, I get it, because it's dead. And at least on the hov side, he ain't mentioning it. Right? It's like, I love you from afar. We not cool no more. That's it. The fact that Dame and Cam keep engaging each other makes me feel like it's a little different. And maybe they want. I feel like they want to reconcile at some point. De, deep down, if you're.

[A]

If you're asking me what would alleviate some of that, and I'm not saying they'll never do this, but Everybody still reps Dipset no matter what.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

So we're not talking to each other, but Jim got on the Superfly Dipset leather Pele. That looks great. Cam do his reply. He got the Dipset fatigue. So it's like if we. If we're all gonna claim this for the rest the of the eternity, then the window will always be there for us to have these types of back, back and forth when Slaughterhouse is over. I was never saying that shit again.

[B]

I was just about to ask you.

[A]

Never saying that shit again.

[B]

Literally just about to ask you once.

[A]

Crook and Joel when made that. That album, me and Roy said, oh, it's dead for good. It's dead for good now. We ain't gonna keep coming back to a point of contention, which is what it becomes.

[B]

And I get that. Cause I mean, even in that y' all were hurt. It wasn't just I'm mad over there. Y', all, both of y' all were literally hurt that that happened. Like, that's sometimes just can't get past the pain.

[A]

Yeah. And I still love them. I check on their Instagram sometimes. But what was done, you did it all.

[E]

Right.

[B]

Like, I keep. I look at even in that I think about, you know, Young Thug and Gunner, like when we. You keep seeing what's happening with them or one mentioning the other. I'm not gonna say because they both know not mentioning each other. But sometimes, like y' all said, it just be something that so much has been done, we can't come back from it. But you stay over there. I love you, but I can never. We can't be this no more.

[A]

What do y' all think about Durk's mom coming out and speaking about the lack of support that's going on with Dirk now says the courtroom is getting smaller and smaller with less people showing up every time. And somebody mentioned this, this even before the mom came out. I think Dirk himself might have said something about the lack of post up. Yeah. Put a post up about the lack of support.

[E]

This ain't the first bit. That's how that go get. People come less come less. You go to jail. People list as long as a who.

[B]

Rent you might have paid in your baby mother DMs.

[E]

As the time go on, they stop calling your name for male. You stop getting visits. People don't come. And then you die. And then you're dead up upstate or dead in the feds. If you get a certain amount of time you did up that, you have a small village of people that look out for you, if you're blessed to have that, that's normal. The fact that this been to jail before, I'm surprised she's saying it, but maybe her saying it, but she thinks that it will grant more people to come out because he does have fans, you know.

[B]

And again, him. Him being in jail before, it wasn't as serious. Not. Not. I'm not gonna say this, but you get what I'm saying. Like, what he's looking at now is different. So to them, they look.

[E]

Caught a shooting before with the. With. With mine, right? It was pretty. Yeah.

[B]

I mean, but he was able to bond out.

[E]

Yeah. Fight it from the street.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

This is different, yo. Not just that. It.

[A]

It.

[B]

When you have your family and all of that coming to court consistently, those judges look at that. Yo, my little cousin, they told my little cousin, he like, dog, you have a courtroom full of people that means love you and care about you. That means you might come from a good, good household. When you just be in there dolo, them be looking at you like another gonna bite the dust and get the out of here. When your family in there weeping and crying and all that. Not that it plays on everybody's heartstrings the same way.

[E]

It's definitely something your lawyer. Yeah, but he is a famous rapper, so I feel like him going up in front of some old white judge, they already expected him to have fans in the building. They already expected.

[B]

Not fans, family and friends. Yo, when we went to court for Surf, the judge pointed that out. The judge was like, yo, I don't think I've seen this many people here. We was. It was. So the side that Surf was on, we had that all the way full, and there was people sitting on the other side. It was just like. The judge was like, yo, you have a lot of people. I can tell that you have a lot of real support. And it was all family, like, close folks. It wasn't fans popping up. He's right. They do. They do take note of that. You. You got a village. Like, people being there with both parents, people being able to. Children, all of that shit. Like, yo, dog, they might. I'm not saying I can't speak for them, but they might not want to take you away from your children and your family for the next whatever years when there's a possible minimum. That's all I'm saying.

[A]

Got it, Got it.

[B]

But you are. You are correct. Yeah, that, that right. It becomes out of sight, out of mind, honestly. And then I know that sounds like.

[A]

Up, but can I close the topic on this show for that. We did it. Y.

[B]

We did it.

[A]

Hey, yeah. Yeah. Black power. Come on. Just put a fist up in there.

[B]

This is up. We good.

[C]

We here.

[E]

Crazy.

[A]

Hey, and.

[B]

And since we were just talking about rappers in prison and stuff, Booy got some good news. He avoided prison because, I mean, listen, He. If you. For those of us who follow Boosie with Boosie. He was talking like he knew he was going to prison.

[E]

Seem scared.

[B]

Yeah, he was scared.

[E]

He was.

[A]

He was really scared.

[B]

Like, he knew today was the day and he was in. He ended up being sentenced to time serve, a $50,000 fine and 300 hours of community service. So Boosie bad. He was talking about his kids. 300 hours is a lot, but free. Okay, Sign me up. Mop the floors, pick up the trash with the little poker thing, all that shit.

[E]

She got a new baby. Baby, guys, Congratulations. Yeah, that girl just had a baby. He was leaving that baby real early. Yeah, that suck. I'm always.

[B]

Yeah, I'm happy to see somebody avoid. Exactly.

[A]

Nah, that's dope. What else we. What other Boosie Badass facts do we need? I'm serious.

[E]

I only got facts on one Southern rapper right now.

[A]

Round of applause for Booy Badass. Let's only get 300 hours of community service or whatever the. I used to say. I don't care. I didn't care anyway.

[B]

Don't start, yo, cuz. I started watching them shits, cuz. Dog.

[E]

[A]

Get who up with King sell water bottles.

[A]

[B]

[E]

And did I lie?

[B]

No, you did not.

[E]

Did I lie?

[B]

Nope.

[E]

I know. Good boy. King sell water bottles.

[A]

I never said nothing. All the more. Months ago, when somebody was trying to break in Boosie's house, so they hopped through the backyard, and he had the dogs there, and then the dogs chased him to the gate, and the guy hopped back over, and then Boosie posted the footage. Did anybody see that?

[E]

I seen it.

[C]

That would miss me.

[A]

Good.

[B]

I'm sure that was hilarious.

[A]

Yeah. No comment. Y' all didn't see it, so I can't. I can't tell you.

[C]

So let's make this one last as if it's all we have. And last sleep. Lastly, the baddies are insecure, the stagnant women want to travel. And the closed minded women want you to teach them things. Grab you with Tylenol. You just might need that. You never know. Got a lot of rain up here this weekend. What's y' all plans, really? Football.
