Knicks Fever & New York Pride

00:00 – 42:51, 67:03–43:00, 147:18–171:00

Key Points

• Euphoria Over Knicks’ Dominance: The episode opens with comedic jabs about unpaid rent and quickly transitions into a triumphant celebration of the New York Knicks’ return to the NBA Finals after 27 years.
  • "When the Knicks win, man, everything is better about the day. Better vibes, better mood, crime is down. The sun shines brighter." — Joe (25:11)
• Comparisons & Historic Context: The crew likens the current Knicks run to NYC sports icons like the late '90s Yankees and '86 Giants.
  • Past Knicks heartbreaks (Hibbert's block on Melo, miserable trades, and suffering through draft flops) are cataloged for comic therapy.
• Culture Shift & Organizational Praise:
  • Joe details the front office’s turnaround, praising Leon Rose & Worldwide Wes for changing the team’s image, along with shrewd trades, medical staff, and cap management.
• Knicks as Underdogs:
  • Discussion of the Knicks’ “stress-free” finals journey, with many noting it’s the best Knicks squad they’ve seen, not just in ability, but in visible chemistry.
  • "For all the heartache and pain, no Knicks fan out there would ever imagine that our next road to the finals would be this stress free." — Joe (37:13)
• Predictions & Bets:
  • Heated (but always playful) banter over who the Knicks might face: OKC or the Spurs, with side bets being thrown around.
• NYC Takeover & Hater Clashes:
  • The crew riffs on New York fan presence in opposing arenas and the hate/jealousy from other fanbases.
  • Joe breaks out actual Knicks-branded brooms to symbolize the team’s sweeps, inciting laughter and more trash talk.

Notable Quotes

• "I'm not scared of the Thunder or the Spurs. To even have a chance to win it, you gotta be in the dance. My team is there. It's been a long time. Knicks fans are pleased, but we're not satisfied. Job not done." — Joe (41:25)
• "It was a blackout!" — Crew on what would happen if the Knicks win the Finals (13:16)
• "[New York Knicks are] the only team in history to close out three different teams by 30 or more. Belt to absolute ass, but we'll get to it." — Joe (19:11)

Ray J’s Viral Boxing Fiasco & #ContentCulture

43:07 – 55:27

Key Points

• Ray J Knocked Out: The crew discusses Ray J’s defeat in a viral MMA match versus online comedian Super Hot Fire on Aiden Ross’s livestream, with skepticism about the fight’s legitimacy and comments on Ray J’s ongoing string of odd, “clout-chasing” public stunts.
• Content & Clout Chasing:
  • Deeper point raised: Content culture now often rewards outrageousness and humiliation, less “looking like the man” and more simply “being seen.”
  • The panel debates whether Ray J is acting out of financial desperation, business decline, or just trolling for attention.
  • "Ray J, to me, is a media legend… But there’s no world in my mind that Ray J and all his accolades… should be in that ring doing that." — Joe (52:05)

Notable Quotes

• "You gotta know that there's a chance for you to get slept. Content is going in a different direction now…" — Flip (48:17)
• "It does feel like a bit or like a character thing. But I think it might have went different than he thought it was." — Mark (46:41)

---

Kevin Hart, Comedy, Black Excellence, & Industry Critique

79:00 – 107:00

Kevin Hart Responds to Roast Criticism

• The George Floyd Joke Backlash:
  • Kevin Hart recently addressed critiques from Tony Hinchcliffe’s controversial George Floyd joke at his roast.
  • The crew sharply debates whether Hart’s defense—“Roasts are supposed to be edgy… Not everyone watching gets the context but that’s the art form”—is a fair position or gaslighting the audience.
  • Mark and Joe are especially critical about the absence of black writers on Hart's team:
    "If you're confused about what would be appropriate and what wouldn't be appropriate, just ask a Black person. But that's tough to do when there's no Black person in the room." — Joe (87:37)
• Hartbeat Company Shakeup:
  • The team addresses press coverage of layoffs and alleged shifts in company focus at Kevin Hart's Heartbeat Productions, seeing it as both business and a microcosm of how Black-owned companies are often attacked or held to different standards.
  • They acknowledge that macro goals can breed detachment from the community but caution against ignoring core values.

Quotes

• "If anybody's supposed to understand that, it's you. But Kevin Hart sound like… he just got entirely too much money…You gotta play certain games when you are at that level." — Joe (85:31)
• "When Black people get in positions of power [and] start acting like their white counterparts that didn't know our struggle…I think that's a worse thing." — Ish (101:21)
• "Don't hold the most vulnerable people to a different standard. Don't hold the Black executive, the woman executive…only. Hold them all to the same standard, but yeah, I want more. I expect Black people to do more for Black people." — Mark (103:02)

Dr. Cheyenne Bryant, Credentials, and Pretty Privilege

108:01 – 134:43

Key Points

• Credentials Debate:
  • Ongoing internet debate about Dr. Cheyenne Bryant’s qualifications as a therapist is riffed on relentlessly.
  • The crew jokes at length that, regardless of her bona fides, pretty privilege “trumps all”—leading to a tongue-in-cheek conclusion she can claim whatever degree she wants so long as she looks good.
  • Mark provides the “serious” counterpoint: harm occurs when the community places trust in unverified professionals, especially given Black Americans’ fraught relationship with the medical and counseling establishment.
  • Several clips and examples (including a viral argument with Toure) are dissected for what they reveal about online culture, credentialism, and gendered jabs.

Notable Quotes

• "Great looking women are allowed to lie. That been since the beginning of time. That ain't a Joe Budden Podcast thing." — Joe (109:14)
• "If she does not have a therapy license, she shouldn't be doing therapy. She shouldn't be calling herself a therapist. If she doesn't have a doctorate, she shouldn't be pretending she has." — Mark (111:36)

---

Hip Hop & Music — Versus, Hit Records, Disses

140:01 – 146:16

Key Points

• Jim Jones vs. Cam’ron VERZUZ?:
  • Jim challenges Cam to a VERZUZ, believing his catalog could match up to Cam’s.
  • Crew debates which of the two would win—most agree Cam’s classic singles put him ahead overall.
• Young Miami’s “Scamming Ass” Record:
  • The crew confesses they were wrong, the record is a hit, especially among women.
  • Joe jokes: "You can tell when Puff Daddy is ghostwriting from prison." (137:56)
• DJ Edits & Black Twitter:
  • Brief segue into DJs making “edited” versions of diss tracks for the radio; consensus is that a diss track is still a diss, no matter what’s muted.

What are you trying to say, Coltrane?

[A]

I'm just trying to help people. Yeah.

[B]

Appreciate it.

[A]

I'm just want to help people.

[B]

Somebody out there trying to help them.

[A]

Yeah.

[F]

How y' all feel, man?

[A]

Great.

[B]

What's up?

[A]

Great.

[C]

Amazing. The city excited.

[F]

6 1. It feels good to be alive.

[B]

Feel good to be here during this time where.

[G]

Right.

[B]

The city is.

[F]

You're gonna turn up.

[G]

Yo, I ain't go to Cleveland and do what?

[D]

I was shocked mad. People went out there.

[G]

They was telling people. No. Like, Fat Joe was saying. Like, they was. They. They wouldn't even want to sell them seats.

[B]

They wasn't giving floor seats.

[F]

Yeah.

[E]

Really?

[G]

Yeah. Not to New Yorkers.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Spike Lee wasn't on the floor. Good for them on the floor. They was like, you're not getting on the floor.

[A]

No matter.

[B]

Did you see how many Knick fans was out there? He said 40% of the time, tickets was New York, New Jersey residents.

[D]

That's fire.

[B]

It was travel. I think that's dope. They took that over. I'm watching.

[G]

I'm watching.

[F]

Look.

[B]

I'm watching where the game is clearly over, like, because it Was a blowout, hit a three pointer and it sound like if you didn't know no better, you just looking at this, y', all

[D]

third string point guard. When he shot a three, the whole

[B]

stadium place went up.

[A]

Well, he shot a few threes. He actually made more field goals than James Harden.

[B]

Oh, I know because I had James Harden on my. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know.

[G]

Look, I respect, I respect the New York fan base for showing up everywhere they go. You can't hate on that. Like I respect that if I show up, if my team was there, I'd want them to do the same thing. I love that. I also love that Cleveland is saying like no court size seats for prominent New Yorkers. I respect that too.

[A]

I don't want to hear nothing else about what Cleveland has to say about anything. At least for another 10 minutes. Today's not the day for what Cleveland thought about things. Cleveland thinks that they're winning the city series analytically.

[G]

Harden said that after the game. He said, I still think we're the better team.

[A]

Yeah, I know.

[G]

I hate when people say that. He said that. Yeah, he said in his pro conference, he said, I still think we're the better team. I, I know what he's thinking. But you. I don't. Yeah, I think every competitor feels that way. I'm just saying don't say he can't feel compete.

[B]

Are we talking about.

[D]

Bro, they tight right now that he got a, a option cuz he got

[G]

to play an option.

[D]

They mad right now.

[G]

Oh yeah, I'm sure. Sure I'm sure. I have to.

[A]

I have to. Sorry to break up this loser fest that you guys are at.

[B]

Has to be.

[A]

Y' all are not Nick fans. I have to just shout out the organization. I do, I do. The fans traveling is great. Good to see the New York fans have more money than some of the fans of you other fan base. Some of you other teams. That's a real good point. Cause the Knick fans are moving around, taking over bill buildings. Who knows if that'll happen in Oklahoma City or in San Antonio. But Texas is big and the Thunder man, let's, let's see. You got to get there first. Got to get there first. But the organization, right. Leon Rose, Worldwide west, the repair job that they had to do just from an image standpoint amongst players in the league for a lot of years the Knicks were hated.

[B]

Wouldn't go there.

[A]

Players would talk down on them. We watched Kyrie and Durant purposely go to the nets. We watched Lebron on everything we did like yeah, the, the, the, their rapport with their colleagues and peers was just really, really, really down. Really bad. Teams wouldn't trade with them. And if you did trade with them, it had to be an absolute flag. So to bring Leon Rose and Worldwide west in there, Alan Houston again, the Jalen Brunson trade, that I won't pull up all the clips of what y' all really said when that trade went down. But y' all out there, you know what you said for your star player to, to buy into culture, for the Knicks to have a culture, for the star player to say, you know what, y' all keep that 113 million. I'm gonna just sign and, and do what I doing. Yeah, it's big, it's big. Ballsy move to fire Tibbs, but they did it. Mike Brown, hats off to you for the job you're doing. Playing the bench, for getting him a bench. He's playing a bench, establishing the bench, being able to change mid game in real time with what you're doing. Like I can't say enough positive things about the Knicks. They went out and got an award winning doctor team. All of the doctors and the physicians and the health player, health people, they went and got, got them, they won an award whatever year that was for being the best. They just did a lot in the background. The capologist dude that they brought in, who has them. You know, Cleveland was the most expensive team in the league. Second apron team, the Knicks, for all of these players and contracts, they are first apron team. They, they, they worked wonders with that cap and what they were able to do. So much so that they call it a Knicks loophole with the other teams trying to do. Like the Knicks did some things that, you know, if you're just a fan watching, you're not going to really understand. But if you're a real fan, a lot of work was done behind the scenes before the talent showed up on the court.

[E]

All of those trades.

[A]

We traded Josh Hart for a chopped cheese in Cam Reddish. Cam Reddish wasn't getting no burn and we traded for Josh Hart. That Anobe trademark. Oh, come on, man. The fucking Donovan Mitchell trade that we don't do. That gives us the assets to go get Bridges and all the rest of these guys.

[E]

The Julius trade, you gotta tip your

[A]

hat to Karl Anthony Towns. Come on, man, I could be here all day with this. But the Knicks, the Knicks, for all of the years of pain and heartache and agony, I. E. The Roy Hibbert block on Melo and whatever game that was against fucking Indiana. Oh my God, the heartache. Damn, what was I about to say?

[E]

Oh, for all the heartache and pain, no Knicks fan out there would ever

[A]

imagine that our next road to the finals would be this stress free.

[E]

That's just the part that I keep

[A]

bugging out about as a Knick fan. This has been a stress free, except

[G]

for that one moment. Y' all are grinded out when y' all down.

[A]

When they were down Atlanta 2 to 1 to Atlanta.

[G]

And people talking about will Mike Brown, you know, keep his job, blow up

[A]

the team, trade for Greek freak.

[E]

All of that.

[A]

Yeah, since then on this 11 game win streak that. Listen, historic, historic shit that they doing.

[G]

The other thing I like about the Knicks, I hate the Knicks. But the one thing I like about this story is the Villanova piece of it too. Watching three guys who played together in college come. I wish White Dante could be there too. But like, to see the three guys who played together in college play in the NBA finals together is almost impossible to imagine. The odds of that are so low. And the three good guys, they're fun to watch. They're fun in the press conferences. They play great basketball together.

[A]

They look poised.

[C]

Yeah, they look a team is my biggest thing. They are so in sync with each other on offense and defense.

[B]

All the way down too.

[C]

Yeah, all the way down.

[B]

All the way down.

[A]

The bench.

[G]

Personalities, their personality, yeah, they look connected.

[A]

They look like job not finished. To go out on the road, people keep talking about the competition they played. But to close out an NBA team on the road Multiple times by 30 or more is no small feat. Facts. It's no small feat. They look like they like each other. They look like they not pleased.

[D]

That was important.

[A]

They look like guys that did not want to hang up their NBA cup banner, whatever that mid season tournament is. And we had that whole talk. Should they hang it up? Should they not hang it up?

[C]

Yeah, you got to hang it now.

[A]

But in hind, no, in hindsight, yeah, these guys, these are the guys that didn't want to hang that baby.

[G]

And I respect that.

[A]

And this is the best Knicks team that a lot of us have seen in, in our lifetimes. That's no disrespect to Pat Y, Charles Oakley, Anthony Mason, Charles Smith, Derek Harper, Charlie Ward, Hubert Davis, Ronaldo Black, all of the guys, there's no disrespect to y'. All. Larry Johnson, Chris Chows, Alan Houston. They just look like they all, you

[B]

know what I'm saying? Like, you don't usually see that where it looks like the entire. From the front office all the way down, everybody bought into it.

[A]

They all bought.

[B]

Believe I. I hit. I hit you. I was like, yo, y' all got it.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

I don't think they. I don't think the Knicks believe that. There's nothing that can stop them right now.

[G]

And I. I love that feeling. And I want y' all to hold on to that so that when the season ends, wherever y' all watch the other team win, whether it's the spurs or. Or the okc, that you can pat yourselves on the back and say, we did our best and we. We did something special. This is. It's like Rocky one.

[B]

That's a different type of hate right there. No, especially when. When, like, they swept our team.

[G]

Are we talking about.

[B]

I see that.

[G]

They go dog walk y'.

[A]

All.

[G]

City gonna beat the dog out of.

[B]

I don't think so.

[C]

I honestly don't think so.

[B]

I don't think so.

[C]

I think the spurs make it tough. I think OKC is not going to stand a chance against the Knicks.

[A]

I think the world is going. Rude awakening.

[B]

I'm.

[A]

I'm.

[C]

I'm maybe healthy okc, but they're not healthy.

[G]

He's not going to be hunting.

[B]

But just the will and might. I think them niggas really believe, like, yo, we cannot be.

[D]

No, they believe it.

[E]

And I'll take it further than that stupid ass dodos out there. Why would y' all want this group

[A]

of Knicks to feel like they the underdog and read all that shit that y' all saying?

[E]

I think they operate better from the underdog

[A]

standpoint.

[G]

I think so, too. I think they are going to. They're like, Rocky. And I think this is their Rocky moment.

[A]

I think somebody getting pummeled in game one. I don't give a fuck which one of them niggas went over there. Somebody getting pummeled on. And don't say, I didn't tell you.

[F]

Okay.

[D]

Or the Knicks.

[A]

Don't say, I didn't tell somebody. No, the Knicks going to pummel on one.

[B]

I think the Knicks going to jump on.

[A]

Absolutely.

[C]

I think that's true. Because I also think that series about to go to seven, so they're going to come in on tired legs and the Knicks are going to be well rested.

[G]

That's true. That. That's proven. Like you saw when. When the Sixers went seven against Boston. They got Molly whopped in game one against the Knicks the next round. It happens. But sometimes we've seen, historically, teams get too much rest.

[A]

Don't say the same Sixers and Celtics again. We having a championship level conversation.

[G]

I'm saying y' all beat us.

[A]

Yeah.

[G]

So I'm saying to repeat it, but sometimes when you sit out seven, the NBA Finals next Wednesday, right? So you talking about nine days of rest or eight? Nine days of rest. That could be too much. Sometimes you get out of sync.

[A]

I'm not scared of the Thunder or the Spurs. To even have a chance to win it, you gotta be in the dance. My team is there. It's been a long time. Knicks fans are pleased, but we're not satisfied. Job not. Job not done.

[B]

Job not done.

[A]

Job not done. Ain't nobody celebrating too much right now.

[G]

I can't wait to take your money.

[A]

Oh, I'm taking. I'm taking all the bets.

[C]

What's the bet?

[G]

First I got to see who's in the finals.

[A]

Why? The theory out there is the Knicks can't beat either one of them.

[B]

Why?

[A]

We got one?

[C]

You're talking a lot of shit for a guy who's got to wait and see some shit.

[G]

That's not my theory. My theory is that I think OKC is a tougher matchup for them. I think the spurs can beat okc. I do. But I think if I'm the Knicks, I'd rather see the Spurs. The spurs haven't been there before. I think Wemby's conditioning is bad. I think he's. I agree with that. I think there's a few X factors with the spurs that could play in the Knicks favor. I'm not so sure about okc, so I'm a bet either way.

[B]

I'm just saying what's your.

[G]

How much is going.

[B]

What's your bet if it's OKC and what's your bet if it's the Spurs?

[G]

I need to see the series cuz I made a bet with him before and then the next hour and B broke his neck. You know what I mean?

[B]

Like, Jaylen Williams is a pivotal part

[D]

to that OKC thing.

[A]

He is.

[D]

And now both of them are hurt. Jalen Williams and Mitchell are hurt. That matters.

[A]

Yeah.

[G]

All these things. Things matter.

[D]

That matters.

[G]

But I still think Knicks can lose and I hope they do.

[E]

Great.

[A]

Thank you for that. Thank you for that. You share that on. On your platform. I got nothing for everybody. Go Nicks, man.

[E]

What else? What we got?

[B]

What we got?

[E]

What we got? We'll get back to the Knicks later, man. I mean, we.

[C]

In New York, I got text. My mom and my sister are in town and they text me at like 11:30, like, yo, where you at? We're outside, come find. I'm like, I'm asleep already.

[E]

Chopped cheeses for everybody, man. All around the board.

[C]

It's going to be fun outside in New York for the next two weeks.

[E]

By your neighbor. Go ahead, get your neighbor a shot or something, man. Go ahead. It's good vibes, good energy in New

[G]

York City since we an athletic tip and we talking about losing or winning. Did y' all see Ray J this weekend?

[B]

Oh, yeah, yeah, unfortunately.

[G]

I didn't know there was a Aiden Ross stream coming. I don't follow Aiden Ross. I just woke up the next day and my timeline was filled with like pictures of, of like Ray J getting knocked out. Yeah. And Michael Beasley getting choked out. It was like Those are the two things on my timeline at 6am but we gotta start with Ray J. I

[D]

thought it was AI at first.

[A]

AI be him up. Yo, I thought it was AI be tearing is up in the house. Oh man. Crazy.

[B]

AJ Ray J for. What's his name? Super Hot Fire.

[F]

Super Hot Fire, yes.

[A]

But where, where is he from? I'm not familiar.

[D]

I don't know.

[B]

Who is he from?

[F]

I don't know.

[G]

He's an online person, comedian, personality. I don't know where he's from, but I mean that's his.

[B]

That's, that's what he.

[G]

Okay, that's what he's known for.

[A]

Okay.

[G]

That's what he's known for. And I wasn't super familiar with him. Ray J clearly wasn't neither his left nor his right. And, and so they did this fight. I saw the, the pregame. I just didn't know what he was training for. I saw him with Rampage Jackson training and stuff. I thought it was just a spoof because of the way he was hitting the bag and because of.

[C]

Because six months ago he said he was about to die in two weeks.

[G]

Yes. He was bleeding from his eyes and his organs was going to fail. I was a little confused that he'd be taking on a prize fight, MMA fight.

[D]

He was hitting the bag with Rampage.

[A]

Yeah, well, I mean, this don't disprove that he is about to die.

[E]

If you about, if you're about to die, you can have a bucket list. Ah, I want to do all that.

[B]

What doctor going to clear that if you up like that? The way he made it, ain't no doctor clear hearing that let you get in the ring.

[F]

I mean, he had two weeks prep. He said, you know, it was last minute for him. I'm super Hot Fire from California.

[A]

Oh, good.

[F]

Rancho Cucamongo, whatever that is. And you know, it looked crazy in my mind when I saw Ray J get knocked out. I'm like, yo, they must have paid them. No, Like, I see Lance Stevenson and other homie in the ring, bz. Then I see. I'm like, damn, you know, they paying the bag.

[A]

Ray J must have never.

[F]

No, no, no. I thought about that. But no, they try to pay me, a fat boy to fight each other. Not them, but a company.

[B]

Watched you, boy.

[D]

Maybe Big Jersey.

[A]

Ray J must be never trying to speak to Brandi again.

[E]

Keep doing.

[A]

That's like, I don't understand where he's going with this. And that's my man. That's one of the all time greats and legends and media mavens. He's a. He's a. Ray J is great. So. So to watch him. I mean, now I got to put under the lens. Him saying, I'm about to die and being alive.

[G]

Yeah.

[A]

Cause got calendars, dog. And iPhones with calendars.

[G]

Yeah.

[C]

Him threatening people's butts.

[E]

Yeah.

[C]

Like a little bit less.

[A]

Him swinging on the Zeus owner outside or wherever. That was like, he just got. He just got a run of questionable decisions that to me, no, no longer look like he's in control of it or like it's by design anymore. And that worries me.

[C]

Oh, it might still be by design.

[F]

Yeah. Even if it's a cont.

[B]

He.

[A]

Oh, then he. He got rid of an architect. Whoever's doing this, this is a. This is a 8 year old drawing this play up.

[B]

He looks a mess.

[G]

You need a Mike Brown.

[B]

He looks a mess.

[E]

He looks so bad.

[A]

I almost called Billy the other day.

[B]

That's how bad he look.

[E]

He looks so bad.

[A]

I almost called Billy like, yo, keep it real with me. Like, what's happening over there?

[E]

Is he good?

[G]

Yeah.

[A]

Like, do I need to be concerned?

[G]

I will say this when you look at the lead up to it, because I went back and watched it and I watched his little training videos. I mean, he is playing into it, so it does feel like a bit or like a character thing. But I think it might have went different than he thought it was. Did y' all see the post. The post fight interview?

[B]

It definitely went different. The way he thought he was hot. He was like, yo, yo, yo, this ain't. He basically was saying, this ain't what we agreed upon. What the fuck is he. You doing? Cuz in the first and in the first round, dude ain't swing.

[G]

Dude didn't Swing. And Ray J was doing his little kicks and his little. And it looked like. Not that Ray was in control, but it looked like it wasn't going to be an intense fight.

[B]

Like, we have an understanding here. We go in here and just around and collect that. Whatever.

[G]

I guess the cash app ain't come through.

[B]

Might have put something. Might have put something on the fight.

[A]

I don't buy none of that. This wasn't the plan. Even if he's right, even if that wasn't the plan, when you jump into these things, you have to factor in. You may get knocked out when the camera is on or when we are in go mode, that somebody might change the plan in real time.

[G]

Yeah.

[C]

Adrenaline kick in, boy. Might be a little something different.

[E]

A million years ago, when all hip

[A]

hop tried to get me and Mr. Fab and Royce, the five nine to go battle, and they said, it's not a real battle. It's all just like a friendly competition. Nobody's really trying to win or lose or kill each other. Each other.

[E]

I was like, yeah, gotcha.

[A]

But sure.

[E]

And I hung up.

[A]

And I was like, everybody's gonna try to kill each other in that shit. We're gonna try to diss the other person. And the one person that is gonna be unprepared is the guy that's saying,

[B]

all right, we're not going.

[A]

This is not what we agreed to. Fans don't give a fuck about what you agreed to back there.

[E]

You gotta know that there's a chance for you to get slept.

[F]

I feel like content is going into a different direction and continuing, continues to evolve. And I feel like people like Ray J, who was in the beginning of this whole content thing, he's trying to just keep up with the Joneses, and he's trying, you know, the whole streaming thing and thing that's happening in real life and all these things, and you're able to get a bag. Aiden Ross and a lot of these guys are able to pay big money. You saw Dana White there. Like, they're able to pay big money for you to go out there. You could look at it as humiliation, but I don't think the younger audience look at that as humiliating. I think you look at it as content.

[C]

I feel like content now looking like the man is not as important as

[A]

it has to be.

[C]

Like, as long as you're looking.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

You know what I'm saying?

[C]

As long as you're being seen. And this is about to go viral, which it is. We're here talking about it.

[B]

The only Thing that stand out to me was the fact that Ray J yelled that dude and was like, yo, we lost a lot of money.

[G]

That stuck with me, too.

[B]

That to me, says, I had something on this going the distance.

[G]

Right.

[B]

You get what I'm saying? I put something down for this to go the distance, you know, knew it. You might have said you was putting something down, too, because he said, we lost a lot of money.

[G]

Right?

[B]

So it was like, yo, all right. I put. We going, listen, what we going to do?

[G]

That's a lot to say on a live interview.

[B]

If I put a lot down and had a lot riding on it. And you it up. You damn right.

[G]

Or is that.

[A]

I seen him ask Chris Brown, yo, I see you out here supporting your man. Did you place a bet on him? Chris Brown was like, no, why would. Why would I do that? He can't fight a leg, right?

[G]

That's my.

[A]

That's my friend in real life.

[E]

I know that.

[A]

I know he can't fight.

[E]

Why would I do that?

[G]

You see him laughing hysterically at the end.

[A]

Yeah, yeah.

[G]

I. I was like, ray J is a showman. So either he lost a lot of money or he's very quick on his feet.

[C]

Yes.

[G]

And had that as the excuse for why he got.

[A]

There's no world that Ray J should be in the Aiden Ross boxing league, league, ring, doing anything for any type of money.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

So you say in my brain, Ray J is royalty, and he's from a family of music royalty.

[F]

Is the industry treating him like royalty? That's one. You could be royalty all you want, but if it's not adding up anymore, you have to go and adjust.

[A]

Well, when you say. I don't know how to compute that.

[G]

When you say industry music.

[A]

Let me talk, let me talk. When you say the industry, is the industry treating you a certain way? I think of the people in the music industry, and all of those people treat Ray J with reverence and respect. There's no room that he goes into, and he's made to be the clown.

[B]

Yeah, but when he.

[A]

That don't exist.

[B]

But when he makes music, are they treating him like royalty? For example, Brandi, go make music. Brandi features on something, whatever. It's heralded. Everybody knows what she does. She's treated like a princess. When Ray J does the same thing, is it treated that way by his peers in the industry? I think the answer is no.

[C]

But he's not. Brandy, Respectfully, I'm just.

[B]

I'm speaking to music royalty. He said music royalty. I'm speaking to how we treat music royalty.

[C]

Royalty implies family. Like, if you were the brother of a prince, you're royalty.

[G]

So is he like. No, not. Is he like a. Like a Latoya Jackson or something? Like, we consider Toy Jackson.

[E]

Are y' all playing on Ray J Nixon? Ray J has way more hit hits than Latoya Jackson.

[G]

But then Jermaine Jackson. My point.

[E]

My point isn't Ray J has more hits than Jermaine Jackson.

[G]

I'm not sure that's true.

[F]

But it does.

[G]

I'm not sure that's true. We'd have to look that up, but.

[A]

All right, go ahead.

[G]

But my point is, Jermaine, you gonna

[F]

give up like that?

[G]

No, I mean, because we would have

[A]

to look it up. Jermaine Jackson does have a lot of

[G]

hits, is what I'm saying.

[A]

But I think Ray J. Ray J got a few.

[G]

But my point is bigger, is just to say Ray J, to me, is a media legend. He's a. He's a legend in our culture from what he's done on all these platforms. Platforms. Music legend. If he's a music legend, it is by extension of. Of Brandy.

[A]

Awesome. I'm saying there's no world in my mind that Ray J and all his accolades and his family's accolades should be in that ring doing that.

[G]

I agree with you, but it's the bad part. But I think that's his real quick. I'm sorry. I think that's his thing. That's his thing. I think he actually likes doing that.

[A]

Oh, I. I couldn't disagree more with that.

[G]

So why do you think he's doing? You think it's money?

[A]

That's what it looks like more.

[D]

Yeah, but think about this.

[A]

That is what it looks like.

[D]

Even. Even as far as cachet and how.

[E]

You', nigga, where's the scooty bike?

[D]

This is my point. Even as far as cache and how you're perceived, you could start out on a tier of 10, and based on the shit that you start doing consecutively over a number of years, people could start looking at you like a goof. So if you start giving the world that I'm plaything, I'm this, I'm that, and I'm this, and I'm that, niggas start having less and less respect for you. People respect you how you respect yourself.

[A]

I understand.

[B]

Do you think the industry takes Ray J Secret serious?

[A]

Yes, is what I'm saying. I don't want us to keep speaking past each other. I get what y' all are saying. His antics have made fans view him a certain way. I totally get that. The fucking group he started with, the R B, him singing one wishing versus he's had a few clown moments in a row. I'm saying that people in the music industry respect him. Not fans, not the Internet people. People that run the music business in all different sectors. Actors respect Ray J. I'm not making that up.

[E]

I'm not saying that he's the biggest star or any of that.

[B]

And my response to that is, does it show when he does music, he does music. Does it show that these people in the industry respect him and fuck with him? Is it being pushed? Is he being celebrated? Is he being highlighted? Does it show that these people who run, who work in the industry fuck with him musically?

[A]

No, but I don't think that those correlate. No, it doesn't, but.

[B]

But that would explain why I end up doing other things. Now. That's what I'm saying, that that would be the reason why I take this antique based route. Because when I drop music, it's not being looked at a certain way.

[A]

I hate that. That's a Crutch. There are 10 billion other things for musicians who no longer are coveted in their music to do before they turn into clown. That's not said enough on these podcasts,

[E]

especially Black Clown is about.

[A]

There's a billion career choices that you could take.

[G]

Do you think he wants to do music?

[A]

If he's doing music, then I think he wants to do music. But Ray J. I've always known Ray J to be like a businessman.

[G]

That's what I'm saying. I don't think music is even what he wants to be doing. Just in my limited interactions with him, I think he wants to be a mogul.

[B]

I don't think.

[A]

Yeah, so whatever he was doing with the TV network or his slate of shows, I don't know why that's not doing enough to keep him out of a ring. Like I said, Scooty bike, the sunglasses, whatever he was doing on.

[E]

For any of him in a boxing

[A]

ring to be acceptable. This is not like when Sticky did it. Like when Stick. When Sticky did it. It's like, all right, MTV could call on you into doing something.

[B]

Did any of those things work, Joe?

[D]

You could have seven.

[E]

Well, I don't know.

[D]

That's all I was going to say.

[G]

But I don't know.

[D]

You got 15,000 ventures that don't mean that those ventures are profitable. Especially if your lifestyle is such that those things are paying for your elaborate lifestyle.

[C]

In fairness, I Mean, I feel like he didn't even stick to, like, the podcasting or streaming or whatever he was doing. Like, when he first started doing it, it was kind of lit. And then. I haven't seen anything in a long time.

[A]

I love Ray J, and I want better for him. If he's in a dark place mentally or if his health is not right, then all jokes aside, I want him to be well. I care about him and his fucking family. So there.

[G]

Okay, just if. If.

[E]

If he is well and this is

[A]

all by design and he's doing exactly what he wants to do, then at least learn how to fight.

[C]

I feel like let's at least say

[B]

that that's my thing.

[A]

If.

[D]

Let's say me and you. Me and Parks was going in there and we saying we gonna bullshit.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Once Parks start punching you in the

[D]

face, punching me in my face, and he not taking off them punches, it's a different.

[B]

It's a different time.

[D]

We on. Parks is trying to knock me the fuck out. We on go time. I'm not gonna say like, yo, but what.

[C]

Or you just might not know. I can hit as hard as I can hit.

[E]

And also.

[B]

Right.

[A]

I've never been knocked out. But as someone watching knockouts, I think

[E]

it's probably a better idea to fall fast. Cause the slow motion stuck in midair

[C]

without slow motion drooling.

[E]

And you like. And we could see the knots on the head and yo, just hit the ground.

[G]

Episode from Martin.

[E]

Yeah, it was bad. I don't want to see Ray J stuck in midair, leaned over that Ray

[B]

J looked at him like, hit me.

[G]

It was bad. It was. I felt bad for him, honestly.

[F]

Me too.

[E]

You had to feel bad before he even fell, cuz you. You could predict that. That that punch was coming. Yeah, he kept setting him up with

[G]

the boom, boom, boom.

[E]

And Ray J just wouldn't guard it right.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

What you want me to do?

[A]

Your face is right by my fist.

[G]

Yeah.

[B]

Smiling. Oh, man.

[G]

It was bad.

[A]

I want better for Ray J. Homeboy

[B]

moved out the way and everything. He really could have kept boo bopping him.

[D]

He just moved and let him fall.

[G]

Yeah, it was. It was. It was bad. The Michael Beasley, Lance Stevenson one was short, and that was, like, more interesting and less embarrassing. I think if you get tapped out on a choke, you know, you don't look bad. Yeah, it just look like you don't want to get choked.

[B]

I don't want to go to sleep. No, you got choked, right?

[G]

Got choked.

[B]

I don't want to go to Sleep.

[G]

Yeah.

[A]

So you see that in that fight? I didn't see there was a loser. Did somebody lose that fight?

[G]

Oh, Michael Beasley lost.

[C]

He tapped out.

[E]

Oh, yeah. No, I didn't.

[A]

I didn't see who lost. Because both of them still will shoot you, right?

[G]

Oh, for sure.

[E]

And they was laughing at whatever happened during their little hand to hand combat thingamajiggy they was doing. Neither one of them really cared about it.

[B]

They ain't give a fuck about that. I'm not doing this outside anyway.

[E]

Beasley has been breeding cane corsos for the past 20 years. Them niggas got weapon collections. They don't care about this little fisticuff.

[G]

Yeah, they look like two people whose friends that collected a check.

[E]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[G]

I was like, I understand that.

[B]

I think they coming off of their 1V1.

[A]

Yeah.

[G]

And they like, we're gonna do a third thing next one. I was like, that's how you end it. You know what I mean? Michael turned his back real fast to him, which was a really, really, really bad, unfortunately. Yeah, Just never do that. But other than that, they look like they can fight. They could fight standing up, they just didn't. Couldn't grapple, and that's fine. It's an MMA thing. I just want to see more people do it. Like after like six months of training. Like, to me, that would be more entertaining.

[C]

That's an interesting choice to do MMA right, Instead of like boxing, instead of just boxing.

[G]

Right.

[B]

I was like, can't box. So they be thinking with the mma, at least I could kick you.

[E]

Do any of y' all know how good yalls grapple game is?

[G]

No, no, mine is pretty good.

[A]

Nobody's ever had to function from the ground. Come on. All right.

[C]

It's been a long time.

[A]

All right, Superman.

[B]

I know they're saying it's been a long.

[G]

All fights go to 32nd.

[E]

It was just me.

[G]

I think my gravel game is above average, but.

[B]

Well, you train.

[C]

Yeah, word.

[G]

That's what I'm saying. I'm training. That's what I'm saying. So I like my chances, but you

[A]

know, I got them niggas.

[G]

When we go to the ground, I'm trying to take somebody to the ground.

[A]

As a matter of fact, I got. We go to the ground. Oh, boy. I got you, buddy.

[G]

You'd be surprised.

[A]

No, I'm talking from experience, not guessing.

[G]

No, no, I'm talking about in one of these rings. I think in real life.

[A]

I'm not talking about in a ring.

[G]

Oh, yeah. Streets.

[E]

I ain't trying to fight nobody that really do that shit. Are you crazy? No, I'm talking about niggas equal hands as me.

[G]

I'm with you.

[E]

Joe about to go grapple the.

[B]

With the cauliflower ear.

[D]

What you say was letting you grapple and all that in the street.

[A]

Fights go to the ground in the streets.

[G]

They put him on his wallet. He have a choice.

[A]

Fights go to the ground in the streets. You probably wouldn't know cuz it's a gunshot victim. They rushed you to the hospital.

[G]

Oh, by the time fight with the E.R.

[E]

this fight was with his life. You skipped the ground portion of the. Of the tussle.

[B]

Hold on, hold on.

[A]

He walked right into that one.

[E]

Come on, man.

[C]

Oh, man.

[A]

I'm here all day.

[E]

I got DVDs for sale outside. Anyway.

[A]

Yeah, fights go to the ground, man. God damn it.

[G]

You got to do how. How much money would it take y' all to get out there and do that with one of our peers? I know you're going to say nothing.

[A]

Yeah, I'm never going to to do that flip.

[G]

If. If somebody say you and what's my man that does what you do. But like on a slightly bigger scale.

[A]

Drew.

[G]

Drew? Yeah.

[A]

Drew ain't doing that.

[G]

How much would for a million, would you do it?

[F]

No.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

He only going to get 50,000,

[F]

You know. Give him 50.

[D]

Huh?

[A]

You think you give him 50. All right, that's cool.

[G]

He thought it was a good look, you know.

[E]

Look at these, look at these, look at these groupies.

[F]

Look at these groupies. Yeah. Call out to him. Call out to him. Listen, at the end of the day,

[G]

how much would it cost?

[F]

I'm not. I'm not doing a fight. Ray J offered me to fight Fat Boy. I told you I'm not doing it.

[G]

Yeah, I told you just wasn't enough.

[D]

You said Ray J offered you to fight Fat Boy.

[F]

Yes.

[G]

How much did he offer you?

[F]

But Ray J just took a 250,000.

[A]

So y' all friends. Why y' all ain't just draw up

[F]

a play like all our friends Fat was doing? But you know, I mean, I'm not not. I don't.

[G]

You would do that for me? I'm tell you right now, if a podcast million dollars. I'll do it was before you could beat the dog.

[B]

A mil is the long.

[F]

It was before I got here.

[G]

That's my. That's my baseline.

[B]

You're not going nothing less than the middle.

[G]

It would depend on who it was.

[F]

It would depend on who it was, cuz.

[G]

At some point, somebody going, oh, boy. That's what I'm saying. A million dollars away from me. Get.

[E]

Let's take three options for mma.

[B]

Let me. I'm trying to think of somebody black from.

[A]

Who's that other doctor they be trying to put against him? The other doctor do. Boyce Watkins. Oh, is it Boyce?

[G]

I was just texting Boyce. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[A]

You always just texted y'. All.

[G]

You literally just text me five minutes ago.

[A]

Yeah, but we talking about violence, nigga. I don't care about your text threat, Boyce.

[G]

I would do for 50.

[E]

Umar.

[B]

Roland Umar the one and Roland Umar the one.

[F]

Umar's bigger than him, though. Wouldn't be like, the weight is different.

[G]

Yeah, we different classes.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[F]

That wouldn't be fair.

[A]

I heard you being shady. I catch a shady.

[G]

What was the shade?

[C]

There's some shade in the.

[E]

Dude.

[F]

We heard a different weight.

[E]

That was the shade.

[G]

I mean, I see how it could

[E]

have been a different weight class.

[G]

I'm not above that. I just wasn't thinking, brother.

[E]

Mark, I've been letting you slide a

[G]

light N. We are from Philly.

[A]

We are.

[F]

I checked your man on the couch in oatmeal. I checked your cream man on the couch. Don't let me come for you.

[E]

What up, man?

[G]

No, but I would detect you. Would you do it?

[E]

Yeah, of course.

[G]

That's what I'm saying. People act like they wouldn't do shit for me. I believe you.

[A]

Joke.

[G]

Only because you got.

[E]

He broke his leg for free.

[B]

You're right.

[A]

Word.

[G]

That's a solid point.

[F]

How would you do it for his 75,000?

[D]

Do 100.

[G]

That's disrespectful.

[F]

No, I'm just saying.

[G]

But if you could do it for 250, why you think he would do it for 75?

[F]

I was just coming here. I'm not doing it for 250. Would have killed me up here, yo, you.

[G]

I feel like a million. Even if you lose, everybody would be like, yo, he got a million dollars for this.

[F]

But it got to be a way you lose some of these niggas going in there to embarrass you.

[D]

Because, hey, yo, a nigga could put me to sleep for a million dollars dollars.

[B]

I'm cool.

[F]

Yeah, take your butt right, you freak.

[A]

That's where you took that.

[F]

[C]

Also, they'll be wearing boxing gloves. Like it's not the easiest thing to do.

[A]

That took it to 10 that was a little crazy.

[G]

That was strange.

[B]

That was a little crazy.

[G]

A million. Everybody can justify it.

[F]

Not everybody. Nigga, you can.

[C]

A million, it's pretty justifiable.

[D]

You can't justify getting a million dollars.

[F]

I can, I can, but it deter it. A lot of things play into that.

[E]

What.

[D]

What plays into it?

[B]

Which account is the million going into?

[F]

How am I going to lose? Are we. Is it real? Let's see how much time I need. But then I need a lot of time.

[G]

If it's real, you could train for. For say, six weeks.

[F]

I need more than that.

[D]

Six weeks ain't long.

[A]

I seen you eat.

[B]

I seen you jump off a balcony

[D]

into a table of.

[F]

When I was younger.

[A]

Not.

[E]

Not now.

[F]

When I was young.

[E]

You ain't make a million dollars doing it.

[A]

[E]

First of all, couple weeks, he was running that store that make the famous

[B]

[G]

Oh, like I got it.

[E]

It was your money.

[F]

[C]

It does kind of matter.

[A]

They trying to press you about it. I'm satisfied they trying to press you.

[F]

Oh, yeah, they can't.

They didn't answer your question.

But come on, man. Them ain't. Come on, man.

I can't believe I said I still

[A]

think we the better team. Yeah, he really said that. Blame Harden. Blames Harden. Can't call him James no more. Yeah. Lame Harden.

[G]

I still say not to make a basketball convo, but Draymond Green said something last week that I thought was really interesting, and I agree with him a thousand percent. And he was basically like, james Harden's job isn't to stop Jalen Brunson.

[B]

True.

[G]

And he said, like, we would never do that to Steph. We would never put Steph on an island. Not saying Steph couldn't stop his man, but that's not his job. That's not what he get paid to do. And there's a bunch of people out there whose job it is to do that.

[B]

I agree.

[G]

And I think there was a little. Oh, my fucking God.

[A]

I was like, where did you find

[E]

you did spray painting?

[D]

Yo, I ain't gonna lie. That's fire.

[G]

For those of you, that's fire. Yo. Those of you on Spotify or other audio platforms, Joe Button just came out with a New York Knicks broom. Yeah.

[F]

Don't speak about me.

[C]

Yeah, the paid job is questionable, but, yeah, the sentiment's right.

[G]

That is hilarious. Hey, yo, come on, man.

[E]

He believe. Hey, yo, brought.

[F]

He believe. He believe in that with you.

[B]

Y. I'll sweep you with this, right?

[D]

Wrong with you, yo.

[A]

Oh, y' all keep talking.

[E]

Don't mind me.

[F]

So sleep your fe. You believing in the marriage year, right?

[A]

Looking at that, yeah. Don't go ahead.

[G]

Just get out the way.

[B]

You can smell the sweat. Spray paint on that.

[G]

You really can't. Damn you really can't.

[A]

Stupid ass nigga.

[B]

Why he going back in there?

[G]

What else do you have out there?

[B]

Why am I holding it, fam?

[A]

What?

[G]

Oh, he got two. Wow. Parks. Remember last week when I said there

[C]

was a couple sweeps?

[G]

Remember when I said New York, New York fans would most obnoxious, and you said, no, they weren't? You still hold on to that?

[C]

Yeah, I still hold on to that.

[G]

You think a Philadelphian would do this? You think a Bostonian would do this?

[A]

Yes.

[C]

You've been. You've been over there hating for this whole episode.

[G]

That's different. I'm hating as a Knicks hater, not as a Philadelphia.

[B]

This is absolutely crazy, son. Sit down, man.

[F]

I got nothing to say.

[G]

I got plenty to say. But I'm.

[A]

I'm hold my piece for you Sixer fans. Broom for you Cavalier fans out there. Man. It's trash. Clean sweeps. Horrible clean sweeps.

[D]

Back to the nonsense, Draymond.

[A]

What y' all saying again?

[D]

Draymond said that it ain't Harden's job to stop Brunson. I agree.

[G]

Yeah.

[D]

Harden has never been a quality defender. However, what he gave up on the defensive side of the ball, he would more than make up for in the offensive. Offensive side of the.

[A]

You guys. Respectfully, no, no. You know I love y', all, and I want to hear from y' all on some of these other topics. You're right. On this topic right here, Big dog.

[C]

It's over.

[G]

How about this topic?

[A]

Sorry, y'.

[E]

All.

[G]

Since we talking basketball during the game, and I've been liking the coverage, you know, T. Mac, Vince Carter, Carmelo Anthony. Great coverage.

[A]

Yeah.

[G]

So some of the fans on social media have been upset at the wardrobe choices. Specifically, they think that Carmelo is too casual. They don't like the tracksuits. They don't like the sweatsuits. They think that that isn't professional. As an NBA analyst, he should be wearing suits. I disagree. I actually like what Melo's doing, but I know some people are very traditional about that. When I saw you on ESPN years ago even. Cause you had your Twitter background, you wore a suit, and you're a rat mark.

[A]

I see your shade.

[G]

There's no shade coming. I swear there's not.

[A]

I'm telling you, I could sense your shade. I sent you a shade.

[D]

What's the shade?

[G]

I don't even get this one.

[A]

My little egghead. And that little lavender little number I had. Whatever the I wore up there, I

[G]

didn't even remember what.

[A]

It was crazy up there with my little pink Tie. I know, I know your shade. I tried it.

[B]

I swung.

[G]

Brian Howard, big swing.

[A]

I gave it a swing.

[C]

You've had worse swings.

[A]

Listen, I was smart enough. Enough to at least have the idea of what it should look like. It just didn't connect. It just didn't connect.

[E]

Carmelo do be up there casual. It be a fly.

[A]

Casual.

[G]

Yeah.

[A]

I think Carmelo Anthony, for me, is one of the best dressed men I know in terms of that. That he be doing like the sports retired. Casual but fly.

[E]

It's just about.

[A]

It's just about how it be looking now next to Tracy McGrady and Vince Carter. Sometimes Vince dressed like he went to college in North Carolina. Tracy McGrady dressed like his eye got. Like he got the biggie eye sometimes, like he gonna put them motherfuckin patent leather Pradas on with whatever color suit he got on. So everybody looks great individually, but as a collective, when you look at it all together, and that's on a producer just to say something. But yeah, I can see how they see Melo and be like, like, all right, this is.

[E]

Sometimes I see him be like, all

[A]

right, this looks super casual for what

[B]

we doing right now. Let me ask, is he great at the commentary?

[G]

I think he's really, really good.

[A]

That whole team is good.

[G]

It's a great team and they're great together.

[A]

That team is good.

[B]

So why does it matter?

[C]

It matters a little bit.

[B]

I'm just asking.

[C]

Image matters a little bit.

[D]

It matters. It definitely matters. You don't see commentators, traditionally, commentators, dictators are suited and tied up.

[B]

We're not in traditional times, though. It's never changed.

[C]

So I don't think it's been that

[G]

bad, but it was trending this week a lot more. And I don't know if it's because the stage is bigger.

[D]

When in Rome, bro, you gotta do what Romans do. And if that again, I. I think

[B]

that's up to the producers of the show.

[D]

But when everybody in here is coming suited and tied up and you come in in a sweatsuit, you will stand out. And when you stand out, it opens

[B]

the door for public criticism. Well, some niggas are okay with some standing out, though. Yeah, comfortable, I guess. So if he's comfortable with that, I don't. He don't give a that y' all talking about it. Are the producers okay with it? Am I doing good at my job? Are the numbers where they need to be?

[G]

We'll find out next season.

[D]

I disagree.

[F]

How would you feel about if somebody did a spoken in Front of a sermon or whatever, in just casual way,

[D]

how would you feel A sermon in. In the church.

[F]

Church or somebody gave a speech.

[D]

I don't care about that.

[F]

If somebody gave a speech in cash, casual wear.

[D]

I think that if you go somewhere where the dress and the attire call for a certain thing, then I think you follow that thing.

[F]

Got it.

[G]

Agreed, I think.

[A]

Do you think that tenants should be able to dress casually if they haven't paid? Like, if they haven't pay rent, they

[G]

better just casually pull up some slacks. I don't see nothing nice if you ain't paid. Can they.

[B]

Can they go cop new?

[A]

They can do whatever. Can tenants that didn't pay yet. We're business. Business attire.

[F]

Yeah.

[D]

Hopefully they handling some business going on, some energy.

[B]

Like you go. You go by the crib and it's a big ass. That's all I want. I'm gonna ask him how you feel. Then you go by the crib and it's a big ass 85 inch TV box outside. But you ain't got paid yet.

[A]

Yo, if I pay you rent, don't drive by the house, dog.

[F]

No, he checked the cameras.

[A]

Don't drive by the house.

[F]

He checked the cameras on his phone.

[E]

Like, if you the landlord and I

[A]

pay rent to you, there should be no time where I see you. You come over here and if you need to come.

[B]

But you ain't pay rent.

[E]

That's how we got here.

[A]

Don't matter.

[B]

And you two months behind.

[A]

Don't matter.

[G]

Don't come on this block, you're not gonna get it.

[A]

Pulling up.

[E]

What you on the block for?

[A]

To see what I'm doing.

[G]

Yeah, I had a tenant I paid one time and they had. This is like the early arts and they had a big ass DirecTV dish on the front of the house that wasn't there the last time I was there, which was the last time. Cause I was collecting rent in person back then.

[A]

And that just look odd in Philly, right?

[E]

Yeah, all the above.

[D]

Row houses, nigga.

[G]

It's row houses. You ain't got no choice. It ain't really no roof to do, but like, she had to join. That made me want my money. It made me less sympathetic.

[D]

You know what. What happens with me some socialists.

[G]

That's why I got out the game. I was like. I was like, I can't be in this game and be who I want to be. Because it was hard to be sympathetic when people would be like, fuck you. You know what I mean? She was on section 8 and then she Got a raise at a job. And so the government stopped paying her portions. So I used to get like 90% from the government. Then I started getting like, we split it 50, 50, and she stopped giving her 50. And then it went up higher and the government was only giving me $50 and she was giving me like 550. You know what I mean? It was. It was stressing me and I felt bad for being stressed.

[D]

I. I feel sorry for, especially for single mothers, but like that be married. I have zero, zero empathy for you Say more like two incomes here. Like, but Mary don't necessarily got Benzes and don't be paying a rent.

[A]

This nigga is parking lot watching. This nigga's watching the driveway way.

[E]

You gotta hide.

[A]

You gotta hide the car.

[D]

Like, just in regular.

[B]

Yo, dog, people.

[D]

You know what happens. Like, people don't prioritize accordingly. And especially if you young and black. It's this.

[B]

It's this.

[D]

Not young.

[B]

It's.

[D]

It's a. It's a mantra that landlords are rich.

[B]

That.

[D]

That's just this big thing that landlords be rich.

[E]

Huh?

[A]

He's spilling his heart out.

[D]

No, no. And then see the pie and they start thinking that you real rich. Not knowing we on welfare.

[B]

Fair salary up this.

[D]

And so they started thinking like, yo, he got it. He don't need.

[B]

He got it. You got it.

[A]

Well, welfare is normally for the people that need. Anybody has the option to leave and abandon this. If it's not serving them or what they want, everybody can definitely leave.

[G]

I believe in welfare

[E]

when you want. We love. We love welfare.

[G]

I'm from welfare.

[A]

Kevin Hart's business needs our attention. Kevin Hart was on the Breakfast Club, and he is replying to some of the criticism that his roast received, mainly Tony Hinchcliffe on the George Floyd comments. Like to hear it? Here it go.

[H]

It wasn't a tasteful joke to our culture, to our audience, but our audience that's watching the roast. If you're watching the roast, you get why they're doing it. I hate to say this, but I'm going to, because we're being honest. People are talking about that joke. Talk about the set. Tony Hinchcliffe arguably had the best set or one of the best sets between Tony and Cheryl. And I would say, Naim, like, what. What is it that you expect me. You want me to take a live production and stand up, up and. And fight Tony or have a reaction like, Tony told a joke, we didn't like it. Okay, hey, man, that joke. We move on. I don't understand why we stand on the hill and it becomes like this. This big thing. It wasn't a tasteful joke.

[E]

No joke on him.

[D]

I think he said.

[A]

And that was just a clip of it.

[D]

Yeah, he's right in. That is we. We're in the middle of a live broadcast. It ain't nothing that I could do.

[A]

That's not true. That was one of the biggest lies he told. That's not true at all.

[D]

No, I just.

[B]

Mark explained because I asked him, like, what else could he do?

[F]

And when you was just like, Benjamin.

[B]

Yeah, I get it. You want me over with that.

[D]

Secondly, well, there were other jokes taken

[A]

out of it, which says that someone somewhere along in the process, had the ability to remove joke jokes from. From this. So we can't just die on the. It was live. There was nothing we could do. That's not true. There's a tape delay when it's live for instances like that. When somebody say something too stupid and you need to pull it. The fucking Baptist was live.

[D]

No, I'm talking about. Not that part. I'm saying that. Yo, he said the joke. He said the joke. I can't do whatever because it's Kevin Hart's roast. I don't think him making.

[G]

Issue.

[D]

I think it would have been worse. But you still can't say.

[A]

You think what would have been worse?

[D]

If Kevin Hart would have shown that he was offended, it would have went way less.

[A]

What about if he would have shown he was offended prior to the airing of this? Like when it came across someone's desk.

[D]

I don't know if. I don't know if they.

[B]

He read everything I was gonna say. Is it. Is there a world where nobody saw that joke?

[F]

Yeah.

[B]

Could I say that? Because.

[A]

Were these people unfamiliar with Tony Hinchcliffe?

[B]

No, I'm talking about that joke. I'm only speaking to that specific joke.

[A]

Tony Hinchcliffe has made that George Floyd joke at at least his. I want to say, his last five appearances. He's been thirsty to get that George Floyd joke off at all of these functions. Yeah. This is not a new thing with Tony Inchcliffe or this joke or this joke.

[D]

I didn't know about the joke, but I disagree with him in the fact that. That his set was just a great set. I didn't think it was.

[B]

It was cool.

[C]

No, his sound was decently funny until it went too far.

[D]

It was cool.

[B]

It was cool. Joke was very, very funny.

[A]

I disagree with him saying that. Yeah, I thought Tony was. Tony's set was arguably one of the best sets. However, the George Floyd joke put a greater stench in. In me than whatever I had in me from you doing good up there. One. I told you. I totally disagree. When Kev says everybody watching the roast understands what a roast is, and they're watching. That's not true.

[D]

No, it's not true.

[B]

That was very evident.

[D]

I was gonna get into that point, like, yo, yeah, it offended our culture. And then everybody watching. That's bullshit. Cause it's white people. It's people that just have a little bit of tact and a little bit of class could see that that joke was.

[A]

I mean, we just heard Chelsea Handler say that she was offended and uncomfortable by it.

[B]

It ain't even just that joke. I. I saw people offended at some of the shit that was said to Cheryl. I saw people offended at the Pete Davidson dad jokes. Like, everybody did not understand what a roast is.

[G]

And I think context does matter. I remember, like, Pete Davidson don't know. His dad died in 9 11. So, you know, he was in the building with a plane's crash. I remember one time, I watched every roast, every celebrity roast, and there was one time where they were roasting Kevin. Someone else was getting roasted. But when Pete was doing his crowd work, he went to Kevin and said, soul playing is the worst thing that's ever. Ever happened to me. Involving an airplane. Like, right. It's like, so if he's willing to make that joke on himself, then that kind of opens. Opens it up.

[B]

Yeah, but everybody don't know that.

[G]

No, I'm with you. I'm with you.

[C]

People will get.

[B]

Yo. Michael J. Fox made Parkinson's jokes on his own. Yeah, I make a Michael J. Fox Parkinson's joke, and they was coming for my head. People don't even know that he plays it. That's what I'm saying. Like, it's times that people don't know the full dynamic of.

[G]

I get that.

[B]

And they just get offended for the person, and that's the person.

[E]

Cool.

[G]

But this is where it gets tricky for me. I think if it's a roast and there's rules to a roast in a genre, I can't. I'm not responsible for the crowd not knowing the genre, but I do think that there are boundaries even within jokes. Like, for example, I'm not against racial jokes. I remember Jeff Ross one time said to Shaq, like, hey, during the Shaq ros, your knuckles are scraped. Did you walk here? Like, that's clearly an ape joke. Then some racial jokes. But I think that's right at the

[B]

line, George Floyd, somebody else will be on some dice.

[A]

Funny.

[G]

It's a funny joke.

[B]

It is funny.

[G]

Yeah. He told Shaq, watching you shoot free throws is like watching. Right. Some people might say that's past the line because you're talking about mentally disabled people. Other people might say that's funny.

[A]

I think people inside the comedy world and outside appreciate a really great racist joke.

[G]

Yeah.

[H]

Yes.

[A]

However, if you miss or it don't connect the way that you thought it would, then, yeah, you're gonna have to deal with some people being offended over the shit that you said.

[G]

Right.

[D]

And when you start talking about somebody that lost their life and all the civil unrest and all of those things that transpire after that, it's just a bad, tasteless joke.

[A]

But again, I'm not talking about Tony right now because Tony is white and can think whatever he wants. He come from that Roganite sphere that. I agree with Chelsea and what she said. I have no conversation for him or the likes of people that think like him. My conversation is back to Kevin. Kevin Hart. This is a black man. This is black excellence. One of the biggest comedians that we have. And for him to. It ain't so much about the joke and who was offended and who wasn't, but for Kevin Hart to gaslight people because that's what he's doing for. For him to say, oh, I don't understand why people are offended. It was just a joke. It's overblown. He had one of the best sets.

[E]

The people that are offended don't give

[A]

a fuck that he had one of the best sets, Kevin. And if anybody's supposed to understand that, it's you. But Kevin Hart sound like a. Some of those accusations of being cooned out may or may not be true sometimes, depending on what room he is. 2. He sound like he just got entirely too much money to even think about. He just sound like a nigga that's too rich and too up and too wealthy. And you gotta play certain games when you are at that level that the

[B]

higher up you go, the more disconnected you are, and the more you start

[D]

playing the game up there, thinking on the macro.

[B]

That's what I think.

[G]

He's missing the point, too. I mean, like, I agree with everything else.

[B]

I mean, that happens.

[G]

If that joke were the outlier, I don't think we'd be having this conversation. Most people who are upset about that joke are upset because they see that joke as an extreme symptom of the bigger issue throughout the whole thing, which was a Bunch of white writers getting racism off through jokes throughout the entire.

[D]

Entire.

[G]

The entire show.

[A]

See, and that's the part about Kevin Hart that I would love to be able to champion. We. We saw Homie from. I think Michael. Michael Che from Saturday Night Live.

[B]

He post. He posted.

[A]

Yeah, Shout out to him. He posted the picture of the writers. Yeah. So the Kevin Hart that I'd like to imagine, it's your roast. You could put a black. You could put a black writer in there, right? I mean, I say all the time, all white.

[G]

Yes.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, they were.

[G]

That's what I'm saying. It's like, that's a lot of them. Racist jokes don't hit different when you realize there's a bunch of white men in the background getting a racism wrong.

[B]

Especially when he just went on to say, hey, that roast was produced by my company.

[G]

Right.

[A]

Well, everything that he does. And we'll get into that clip in a minute. Is produced by his company, because that's just the way that the business goes now.

[B]

No, I'm just saying it's different. I have. My company has nothing to do with. I just show up totally different on that side. But I'm like, your company is the producer of this, so you got a little bit of input into at least the writing room, Right? Yeah, I'm with y'.

[G]

All.

[A]

I say all the time that, you know what? Cause black people always rush to throw the racism card out. And sometimes it don't be racism. Sometimes a white person just really don't know or is totally tone deaf. And I say all the time that just asking a black person would save so much if. If you confused, like.

[E]

Like, if you're confused about what would

[A]

be appropriate and what wouldn't be appropriate,

[E]

just ask a black person.

[A]

But that's tough to do when there's no black person in the room. And that's tougher. A tougher pill to swallow when we talking about one of ours. But to ISIS point, if Kev don't look at himself as one of ours, then I ain't about to keep looking him like that.

[F]

Why you think.

[A]

And he clearly don't, by the way that he sounds.

[F]

But I heard that we sound say up here that sometimes, you know, comedy has gotten soft, and we like the dark jokes. One, two. When Dave Chappelle was doing all the trans jokes and stuff like that, I heard some people not up here, but were making an excuse for him. Like, oh, yo, it's all right, man. Yo, come on. It's just jokes. So it's Always going to be something that somebody's offended by. We offended by this because it's George Floyd. And I totally agree with you. The joke is discussing Justin but listening to him.

[A]

Well, not just because it's George Floyd. That's a large part of it. But it's George Floyd from Tony Hinchcliffe

[E]

written at a Kevin Hart. But nobody knows by white writers.

[F]

Nobody initially knew it's the gun. Nobody initially knew that it was written by. Written by white writers.

[C]

That came out pretty immediately when Shay posted that. Within 24 hours.

[F]

Okay then.

[E]

But that's what we're saying. Even to the people that didn't know from what we were hearing and feeling,

[G]

it was safe to assume it felt like that.

[F]

I don't like the George Floyd joke, but I do hear people saying that, well, we like dark comedy. Comedy's getting soft. I heard that.

[B]

I heard the same thing. Flip. Cause I'm seeing people say, yo. Well, we don't like the George Floyd joke, but we love the Charlie Kirk jokes.

[D]

I didn't like that joke.

[B]

But I'm saying there are people saying, hey, what side are we on with this?

[A]

And we've argued some of this already, so we don't need to keep rehashing talking points. But it was important that he went on to Breakfast Club and addressed some of this. Here he is talking about the hit piece that went around about his company and getting rid of all these employees.

[G]

A story came out. I would even go so far as to say a hit piece. Okay. And the headline said inside, definitely a hit piece.

[A]

A thousand percent at Kevin Hart's media company.

[G]

Okay, so there's a report about layoffs and executive sh. Shake ups and internal chaos. When you see an article clip is

[E]

a little long, but I'm gonna let it rock.

[G]

What do you think?

[H]

It's dumb. It's dumb.

[G]

On the day of your roast, it's.

[H]

Well, yeah, because people are looking for clickbait. They're looking for clicks, man. So, okay, how can we take advantage of a narrative facts in Kevin Hart's business? Kevin Hart just did a big deal with Authentic Brands Group. They're doing a big deal with Authentic Brands Group. Kevin Dale Size, Heart, Heartbeat. Like the rest of the fucking entertainment business. Overhead expenses means you cut back. Why? Because you want to keep your margins a plus. Well, you want to keep them conservative. EBITDA is important. Making money in the business is important. A failing business is not. Well, making sure that my business operates efficiently is what I did. Also in the world of fucking content, it's forever to changing. So do I want to own all content now? No. Are we producing and developing as we were?

[B]

Yes.

[H]

You just saw Funny as on Netflix. Hit a great thing. The Rooster, the Rose. Kevin Hart's next movie, 72 Hours produced by Heartbeat. Like we just bought. We just bought Lee's Lee jeans. We just bought Neiman Marcus.

[E]

Like we.

[H]

We are now a part of an ecosystem that will compete with the likes of Bernard Arnott, who is Luxury Etc. Authentic Brands Group is doing the same thing. Oh, no. The. The business of authentic brands groups is not different Guess Jeans. Like we champion Reebok. Like there's that we have underneath this capsule that's growing. And you're gonna look up in five years and you're gonna see Shaq, Kevin and Beckman. Man, these motherfuckers have been moving like this for quite some time. They're moving and operating at a scale. Everybody can't understand that. You can't see that. You don't understand that. So what my goals are at this point, what I'm trying to do at this point is some shit that is ridiculously crazy to achieve. And if my focus is on D Dumb, well, how am I working hard?

[G]

So there is still a heartbeat because people are saying it's no longer a company.

[A]

It's all authentic.

[H]

Like, Kevin Hart will never do a movie, a project, and allow someone else to produce. For me, it has to come from the concepts.

[A]

Y' all get the drift, right?

[C]

Yeah.

[H]

I believe are great.

[A]

We don't need any more of this, right?

[H]

Heartbeat, I'm.

[C]

Bro, he's talking big.

[E]

He is.

[B]

He is.

[G]

I'll say this. And I. And just to the other point, I don't think. Kev, I don't think that Kevin Hart is not for black people. I think Kevin Hart loves black people. I think he's rooted in black people. I don't always agree with his choices. And I do think the higher you go up, the harder it is to see the people. And that's for all of us. So I try to give him some grace, even though I think that comedy roll shit was wrong when it comes to this business thing. It felt like a hit piece. We said that that day.

[A]

Yeah, for sure.

[G]

You know, one of your biggest moments, suddenly this outlet is deciding to put your company's business on blast. Some of it may be accurate, some of it may be inaccurate. We don't know. We'd have to do an investigation. But to put it out that day in and of itself is a problem. But. And I like What Kevin said there, the framing of it as he's cutting staff, he's doing this. The article, I read the whole article. They didn't put it in the context of the business ending industry. I ain't seen a company yet that isn't cutting right. With very few. I'm talking like large companies. Yeah. You know, I don't need 85 people to do this.

[C]

True.

[G]

And in the age of AI, in the age of. I mean, there's a million reasons why people are cutting back. And whether I agree with cutting back or not, from a philosophical perspective, Kevin Hart isn't doing anything different than any other company. And they made it seem as if he did. Now, there were some things in that article about how they delivered the news and about, you know, the zoom and not taking questions. That's HR stuff. Right. And every company has those problems too. So, again, I don't want to hold Kevin Hart to a different standard, that I'm holding all these other companies. And it felt like that article did. So I was glad.

[B]

Absolutely did. Even to the point about speaking to how news was delivered. I came in here and told y' all a couple weeks ago, Coinbase, the employees walked in one morning is like, yo, they all got an email. Hey, check this out. We firing majority. Y' all walked in and. And those who are affected will get another email in an hour, I think. So I'm just saying, like, the delivery is that shit is happening across the board standard. That shit is happening everywhere. It's just this shit felt personal. It felt like an attack.

[D]

I think it was Cisco. They laid off like 30,000 people, I think, and they sent them an email at 6 o' clock in the morning. Like via email. You just got bumped off. What I heard and Kevin Hart speaking is that there is a level. And anybody that I've ever heard speak, when they start to really climb that corporate ladder, there is a level of detachment that comes along with that. Everybody can't go, no, I'm just starting to look at shit in a macro sense, not a micro sense. And so if the roast was extremely, extremely profitable with regards to revenue, then the end is just justify the mean sometimes. And we look at that down here and be like, nah, that's. But they just look at it like, yo, dog, I'm just trying to do something as a black man in business that very, very few people have done. So all of that that you talking about is. Is white noise.

[C]

That seems like a little bit of a cop out in the grand scheme of thing when you're talking about buying Neiman Marcus and Lee's and Reebok and all these massive brands. How about valuable is the roast in that grand scheme to just be like, we can say whatever we want over here.

[B]

I mean, you never know what that revenue that could just be on some partnership. Like I said before, I. All I saw at that roast was Netflix spending big money. That's it. Even from the, the special guest who we can't announce because we didn't pay them to be on this panel. We paid them for 10 minutes or 15 minutes or whatever the case may be.

[D]

It was mega stars in the audience, the crowd.

[B]

Right. Everything I saw, saw was this was a ton of money spent. So if I'm partnered with them, we want this to be a success. With all this money spent and all this money, you might got a 2,300

[D]

million dollar deal with Netflix. So I'm just, I'm just throwing this out there as a guest. Right, sure. So maybe that roast didn't generate that, that one particular thing, but my Netflix partnership overall might have been an immense success. And I'm not going to shit on that over a couple jokes I don't agree with.

[A]

Back to, back to my point about Kev's framing of the poor taste Tony Hinchcliffe joke and Kev saying, hey, this was one of the greatest roasts ever. Like, why is everybody all defended and upset about it?

[B]

He was never giving so good.

[A]

Like, I hear that. And not to bring it back to the coon word, because I'm not saying that, it's just been said before, but I hear that, that and think, oh, this is, this is, this is a, a flag in somebody who puts their own agendas and interests before how other people feel about their means to get it. That's what it sounds like. This sounds like more gaslighting to me. To me. Let me talk, please, for.

[B]

I don't see it that way.

[A]

Well, I know you had your opportunity to explain how you see it. This sounds like. Because I read that article too, and some of what the article's point was, it wasn't just about you laying off and getting rid of all these people. That may have been the focus, but that wasn't the main point. The main point was whatever the original objective for Heartbeat Productions was to funnel new, new talent, shine light on new comedians and yada, yada, yada, they were saying somewhere along that objective changed and everything became centered around Kev. So if it wasn't about a project with Kev or where he was highlighted or A movie he was doing. Then the focus kind of just was lost and it wasn't important at the company.

[B]

See, I even disagree with that. I disagree with that. He just like he spoke to. He just had a hit show on Netflix, Funny af that did what? Bring up a bunch of comedians that niggas never heard of and try to give somebody a shot. And you follow along with this? Somebody won that. And the winner got our Netflix special that y' all probably wouldn't have gotten before. Like, I'm literally doing that.

[A]

That's the company. But that could still be exploitation. And again, we not.

[B]

You said it makes everything centered around Kevin. It wasn't. I'm a judge. My name is on it. It's my show.

[A]

Breeze, with all due respect, if. And we don't know, but if he were exploiting young comedians and going to get a big bag of money and putting a camera on y' all while he pocketed it's agenda, that benefits him. Yeah.

[D]

Like if that is his thing.

[A]

And I don't know none of that to be true, but this does sound like gaslighting to me. It does sound like there's more going on.

[B]

Let me just ask you to that point.

[A]

And that don't mean that everything happens he's saying isn't true.

[B]

What show don't do that then?

[A]

What show doesn't do what?

[B]

When discovering new talent, centering around somebody. Like, why are we calling it exploitive when Kevin Hart is doing it? We didn't call it exploitive for American Idol. Masked singer. I mean, not mask singer. Excuse me, but Dancing with the Star. Any of these shows.

[C]

Any of these talent shows.

[A]

We absolutely called it exploitative for American Idol and a lot of these other shows that.

[B]

Red stars.

[C]

Yes.

[A]

A lot of people put them in predatory contrast.

[C]

A lot of people have been on the show since spoken.

[A]

So yes.

[G]

I mean, that's part of the America's top Model investigation too.

[A]

Wait, I'm sorry for a minute, y'.

[G]

All.

[A]

I'm getting a call from a Celtics fan. Yeah, hello.

[C]

I'm just congratulating.

[G]

I'm just congratulating the true Nick fans today. That's all.

[A]

There we go. I appreciate that. G spin. See Real. A real dude right there.

[E]

I can't with the front fraudulent.

[C]

This new wave is just.

[F]

Is horrible.

[A]

Yeah. Some of them are bandwagoners, but y' all know the real ones. Y' all know the people that you

[B]

know the bandwagon gonna happen. Yep.

[D]

That's it.

[E]

I'll call you. I'll call.

[F]

I'M gonna call Fat Joe.

[E]

I'm gonna make.

[G]

I'm gonna make my rounds.

[C]

It's been a while, so congratulations.

[A]

Well, I appreciate that, G Spin, thank you very much for. For this humble call that you gave. Go, Nicks. Go, Nicks. You heard me.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

I can't go that far.

[G]

Thank you.

[E]

I'm happy, very happy that you guys are sellout.

[A]

Well, thank you, man.

[E]

Just. Just keep watching.

[A]

That's enough support. Just watch. Let's get these ratings up.

[E]

Bye, G. Spin.

[F]

I've done my piece.

[C]

Goodbye. Peace.

[B]

You can tell he want.

[G]

I love that tone.

[A]

He want make that call. I respect that call.

[E]

You got to respect. There's a couple other people that called.

[A]

Like, yo, I'm just calling the real Nick fans. I'm not calling the bandwagon. I know that have really been there. I'm calling y'.

[G]

All.

[A]

Congrats. Mark, I'm sorry, you were saying?

[G]

Yeah, I don't think anything. Except, what are we talking about? I really don't remember now.

[E]

Kevin Hart.

[G]

I was just saying all those shows are exploitative, and I do think that we have to call them all out. My thing is always just don't hold the most vulnerable people to a different standard. Don't hold the black executive, the woman executive, the first, the new money executive, whoever it is. Don't hold them to a different standard.

[B]

That's what I was trying to say.

[G]

And I'm with you. I do think we have called out these other talent shows, but I stand corrected.

[F]

No, no, no.

[G]

But beyond my points, I think some people are. It sounds like a different group of people get outraged when Kev does it. Let me ask you a question.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

Shouldn't we be held to a different standard? And it's not. This don't have nothing to do with Kevin Hart. I think that oftentimes, if you've never walked in somebody's shoes, you can't empathize with them, right? And so if you have walked in those people's shoes, I think you should be held to a different standard because you've been been there before. One of my analogies, y' all know I like them, is, yo, if you. If you got bullied before and then you learn martial arts and you become a bully, you worse than the motherfucker that was bullying you. So if you know how it feels for your mother to be laid off in a certain way without a level of dignity and respect, then I'm not gonna lay off somebody else. Like that word. You understand what I'm saying? If I was once in climbing up the ladder. And now that I attain a. A certain level of prominence and wealth, I start treating people how I didn't like to be treated back then. I think that that's a worse thing than when somebody else do it. So again, this is not Kevin Hartshot. But when black people get in positions of power, oftentimes for them to turn around and start acting like their white counterparts that didn't know our struggle or that didn't identify with us, I think it's worse. At least it's not a Kevin Hart thing. I just think that we should sometimes judge black people how they carry themselves.

[G]

Yes, judges.

[D]

Even when we don't judge the white counterparts.

[G]

So I would make a distinction, because I agree with 1000% with what you just said. I would make a distinction between a different standard and a different expectation. I expect more from Kevin or I expect more from the person who's been bullied and learns how to box or some shit because of what you just said. But I'm not gonna only go after the person. I'm gonna go after all the bullies. And I'm saying that there are some, some people who have only chosen to go after Kevin. Kevin. And that's the part. So hold them all to the same standard. But yeah, I want more. I expect black people to do more for black people.

[D]

Because I agree what he said, everything said about the business aspects of the company, it's just, yo, we climbing up a ladder. And when you focused on Magic Johnson once said, yo, I'm about to get mad at him because he won't take a meeting for a $2 million deal. And so they look at him like, yo, you was a point in time when you, you know what I mean? He's like, yo, dawg, the same two or three hours that I'm interviewing you for the two million dollar deal, I'm looking at a 200 million dollar deal. So those just conversations not worth my time anymore. So I think Kevin Hart is getting elevated. I think Kevin Hart is starting to get into that air up there where

[B]

I don't care about the joke.

[F]

Black people, black rich people that got up there in the corporate ladder, it's really rare that anyone gets there and don't focus on big picture stuff. Yeah, that's rare. I try to look it up, up to see. I mean, it's rare.

[B]

A lot of people lose track.

[F]

But then even if you look at certain things like you repeating yourself now,

[A]

all right, we got it. It's tough to see what's going on. You doing the right thing, Kev. You got some going on and I'mma be here when it break. They talking about.

[F]

So when you get up to that level, you going to focus on big picture things. You're not going to focus on things that may be.

[D]

You do it now.

[E]

Whatever, man.

[A]

To be seen.

[F]

And on top of that, I might. Excuse me. I mean like if you got your friends around, I think that that's something great. But you want a trajectory that's different. And I don't think that you're going to be focusing on my minute. Things that may be minute to you. I don't think so.

[D]

Because there's times that somebody you'll be like, man, I don't care about that little shit. I just got bigger fish to fry. I don't care about that little shit, Kev.

[A]

We keep an eye on it. We paying close. We among monitoring this situation. We love you. We wish the best for you.

[B]

You think it's something else.

[F]

I understand what he's saying.

[G]

Yeah.

[A]

I think that it's deeper than. Hey, I'm watching my overhead and I'm trying to scale. We got all that is true. I'm not arguing with nothing he said. I'm not arguing with nothing he said. I just think there's more to the story that he's really not letting on to.

[D]

Bro, you ain't.

[A]

And I think a lot of people it has something to do with whatever lifetime deal he signed.

[D]

You ain't just hear him say, yo, we don't have to own. He said that that was one of the. The little gems that I think he dropped or one of the subtleties that. Yo, dog, I don't necessarily have to own this if I'm producing it.

[A]

And cuz that article is accusing him of switching up since he signed whatever lifetime deal.

[D]

Yes, possible.

[A]

Yeah. And he might the way business normally functions over here. Something changed. Something changed when he got his lifetime deal. And now this seems to be like an afterthought and it's a surprise to everybody. Again, I have no idea. Kev, we love you, we rooting for you. But we are monitoring the situation. Sorry, buddy.

[G]

Speaking of keeping your eye on people, Stevie Wonder's been in the headlines for the last.

[B]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

Hey, Mark, you one of the best at this man. You are. People think we're not getting along with

[G]

you because I don't know why they think that.

[A]

I don't know either.

[G]

It's really.

[A]

I think elevation just be reaching for now.

[G]

He just makes up.

[A]

Yeah. For sure.

[G]

Yeah. Stevie Wonder made the news this other day. He was bodying people in that game.

[A]

What's the game?

[F]

The hand game.

[G]

The hand game where people try to touch you. You got to smack the hands first. And it wasn't just that he was winning because you could win. I mean, he plays the piano. He's an artist. He's a musical genius, but he was kind of. Actually, you could break it down better than I can.

[B]

Listen, man, he saw what he was doing. You want me to break it down? He saw you and he was playing. He rocked you niggas to sleep while he was playing, too. Got him. Got him and was talking shit.

[H]

Yeah.

[G]

See that? See that?

[A]

Yeah. Where's the shock? We've heard enough Stevie Wonder stories.

[E]

The jig is up.

[B]

I'm waiting to see him driving.

[G]

I thought this.

[E]

You heard that story? I need to see.

[B]

That's it. I want to see him on the highway.

[A]

Said he back down the driveway.

[G]

I'm not. I don't usually believe these guys stories because they used to be ridiculous, man. And I still think Stevie's blind.

[A]

Yeah, but there's a bunch of blind.

[G]

Blind, right?

[E]

Blind.

[A]

There's levels to blind. It's like a blind.

[G]

It's like straight Ish. In Hollywood.

[A]

It's a blind spectrum.

[E]

Stevie ain't just looking at pitch black forever.

[A]

No, that ain't. That ain't the blind that Stevie is.

[G]

At least get gray.

[A]

Yeah, he get some color.

[B]

He see something in there. Some movement, some. Some.

[D]

Some silhouettes.

[E]

He see something.

[A]

Maybe.

[G]

I don't care.

[A]

Maybe it's only fingers and cars that. That he can see, but he sees something.

[B]

He sees something. Y' all can't convince me otherwise. I don't care.

[A]

This thing is crazy, bro.

[B]

Sorry.

[F]

Shout out to Stevie Wonder.

[B]

He's doing that too. Easy. Got him? Yeah, got him. All right.

[C]

It's a timing thing, man. He's a musician.

[B]

I know, I know.

[G]

He's a pianist, too. I mean, specifically, like, he's very finger conscious.

[E]

Yo, listen. Speaking about people that could see,

[A]

that's me. And because I could see, I'm here to put the talk to bed on the Internet.

[E]

That lady's a doctor. Facts.

[B]

She is a doctor.

[E]

Sorry, y'.

[G]

All.

[B]

No, no, no, no, no.

[E]

Sorry, y'.

[F]

All.

[B]

And stop questioning me.

[E]

Hey, hey. Dr. Cheyenne Bryant. I know I'm phony. I waver from side to side.

[A]

Sometimes when too many of them educators

[E]

get on my timeline, I be thinking I need to be down with them.

[A]

And that that's never been My story. That's never been my story. Dr. Cheyenne Bryant got on her Internet. Sick of you motherfuckers.

[B]

Oh, no, she let you have it.

[E]

Sick of y' all just chatting shit and put on a bikini and record it.

[A]

Had the music on and that was all it needed to be said. I gained the understanding.

[B]

Oh, I got perspective.

[A]

I totally see where she's coming from. Stevie, see it.

[E]

That lady is a doctor. I'm not gonna deal with you educators out there that, uh. Oh, she didn't get in on the verdict. She lying in school, burned down. Guess what?

[A]

We don't care at all.

[E]

Pretty privileged trumps all them hundreds and

[A]

thousands of hours of schooling that y' all motherfuckers got. That's just the way to land. I don't make the rules.

[B]

Salute to the good doctor.

[G]

Yo, y' all are so easy.

[F]

This niggas is nuts, dog.

[E]

She is. That lady is whatever she says she is. For those that don't know, great looking lady.

[G]

She was on the Internet.

[E]

Great looking lady.

[B]

Great looking doctor.

[E]

Yo, why y' all act like we changing the rules now? Great looking women are allowed to lie. That been since the beginning of time. That ain't a Joe Button podcast thing. Fine.

[C]

Women lie, do what they want.

[F]

Yeah.

[E]

Yes.

[B]

And we love it.

[C]

Yeah. Yeah.

[E]

This lady ain't no different. She was up here. Was an absolute doll to work with. An absolute pleasure.

[A]

Except for that little Parks exchange. Yeah, we ain't with that park.

[E]

We ain't with that Parks exchange. I think you want it.

[G]

Other than the karmic exchange change on that one.

[E]

Other than that. That lady looks absolutely gorgeous. Go, Cheyenne. Good for you.

[A]

Them educated people. And juicy.

[G]

Yeah.

[B]

Salute, Dr. Bryant.

[G]

Salute, Coach Bryant.

[E]

Sorry, sorry. Sorry you real doctors. Is me sorry that you real doctors. Ugly as hell. Hello, Coach. Coach.

[A]

Coach Bryant.

[B]

That's Doc.

[G]

No, I. I'm. I'm actually exhausted from the whole Cheyenne Bryant conversation. I feel like.

[A]

Well, she put it to bed.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

You can wake up.

[B]

Ain't nothing else to talk about.

[E]

You can wake up now.

[G]

Ain't nothing to talk about.

[E]

Did you see the slides? I don't know if married people allowed to watch it.

[G]

I do my research on all the topics we do. She posted.

[A]

Did you see what she put in?

[B]

Close friends.

[A]

Are you in there?

[G]

No.

[A]

Look at me neither. Nigga, look.

[G]

That was a test. That was a test. If I was, I'm not no more.

[E]

But there's only one of us in that close friend.

[F]

Friends.

[E]

Oh, it's only one of us in

[A]

that close friend that got his nipples played with.

[E]

Flashing. That got his nipples and his butt

[A]

played with when she came up here.

[G]

On the serious tip. I, I, I have exhaustion from Cheyenne Bryant conversation online.

[F]

Yeah.

[G]

So your piece and I think it's too much. I'll say this so that people don't think I'm being unequivocal. Unequivocal. Do I think she's lying? Yes. I've always thought she was not telling the whole story again. I just didn't know which parts was lies because I've heard different things behind the scenes that I can't repeat because it.

[F]

Yeah, let him.

[G]

No, here's why it matters. I'm gonna tell you the only thing that matters.

[A]

You keep interrupting. Shut up, nigga. And you've been turned down this whole episode being trash. Yeah, nigga. What you would say, Martin, we holding you down.

[E]

You've been trash.

[A]

You've been trash this whole episode. Nigga.

[E]

Wake it up.

[A]

And you're going to Trinidad soon.

[F]

I am.

[A]

Snap it up. We need entertainment.

[F]

Nah, my energy is where it needs to be right now.

[A]

All right. I think it's mid.

[G]

What'd you say?

[A]

Mark?

[G]

I think two things are true at the same time. I think there's a whole lot of people who have a legitimate criticism of Cheyenne Bryant because of the dishonesty. If she does not have a therapy license, she shouldn't be doing therapy. She shouldn't be calling herself a therapist. If she doesn't have a doctor, she shouldn't be pretending she has.

[B]

That's a therapist.

[A]

I know the fuck you talking about.

[E]

That is a therapist. I'll book her and I'll pay more than.

[A]

The nigga's really depressed.

[G]

But there's somebody.

[C]

Oh, shit.

[G]

There's somebody out there. And all is there's somebody out there that may be going to a person for therapy. And if they don't actually have a license, I'd be very worried about what they're getting. And in our community where we are afraid, reasonably so, of the therapist, the psychologist, there's a lot of black mental health fear for legitimate reasons. Because of the history of this country, if somebody comes out and turns out to be fraudulent or turns out to not be who they say they are, and we're relying on their expertise for the advice, then that's date Drake Fair

[B]

and she not fraudulent.

[A]

And who will I.

[F]

That is a doctor who will Nobody.

[A]

Come on.

[G]

How do you know that? She said again. She said she's been doing therapy for 20 years.

[A]

Mark, you hating now.

[G]

Yeah, now you Hating? You think I want titties talking about I'm not. I'm not hating.

[A]

You said you sung a different tune in the kitchen. Now, she not your brand of vodka. But in the kitchen, you was down with us.

[G]

You quoting B dot now.

[A]

Yeah, now, she not your brand of vodka.

[G]

Didn't. And then the third point, which is the point that I think is in defense of her a little bit. Well, not in defense of her. In defense of the conversation is some of this shit ain't got nothing to do with her. Some people are just using this to flex their own shit. Like I'm seeing, like three weeks of, well, I got my real degree. Here's me on stage. Here's me with my degree. It seems like it's a. It's like a lot of elitism, a lot of classism, a lot of elitism, a lot of self aggrandizement. It's a lot of people patting themselves on the back and using this as an opportunity to flex. That feels like it ain't got shit to do with Shine Bryant. And that part's unfair. I'm done.

[A]

Chao, listen, man.

[E]

Brian. Yes.

[G]

Hey, no better way.

[E]

Hey, real quick, here you go helping our community. R. Kelly, wait a minute.

[G]

This thing couldn't get worse.

[E]

R. Kelly.

[G]

I ain't make it worse. I offered a responsible response.

[F]

You be playing the fence a lot with Cheyenne Bryant.

[G]

How am I playing the fence?

[F]

I be listening to you.

[B]

You.

[F]

I be looking to you for advice. You play offense.

[G]

I'm not playing offense.

[F]

Are we on? We not.

[B]

Yo, he answered.

[G]

I answered.

[F]

Yeah, he said.

[E]

He said.

[B]

He finally answered. No, he finally answered it directly. He said, do I think she's lying? Yes, I said that before.

[F]

It's still playing offense.

[G]

Y' all look too smart to not understand what I said. This sounds like somebody trying to explain to their girl why they had to take her.

[E]

You ain't said that specifically.

[B]

Redoing directed to you for a yes or a no. This wasn't one of those.

[E]

Read between the lines.

[B]

This wasn't that.

[G]

It wasn't a yes or no either.

[B]

But you just answered yes.

[G]

That was my point because I have more information now.

[E]

After we got. We had that information after we logged

[G]

off of this segment later that evening, people went on Reddit or what's it called, threads, and showed that you could log into the Argosy site and they showed their degrees. The next day, she did an interview on Washington in News. And when they asked her why those questions, she started talking about God and all that at that point, I did a whole video saying, you know what? At this point, I can't ride no more.

[B]

I'm just glad you finally answered.

[E]

That's all I wanted for you. Oh, he's saving for his.

[A]

Every time I keep think. Every time I keep thinking that you run out of mark shish kebabs, you make more like what you be putting mark on that skewer with this one topic.

[B]

Nah, it's not a topic.

[G]

Only with this one think everything is yes or no. I just. I don't. Because I also have information. And I told you this on the balcony after. And so part of what Freeze is doing, which is brilliant, which is a Joe move, is it's a great tactic.

[E]

He knows his breaking the fifth wall. He breaking the fifth wall. He knows that is some shit I'm

[G]

not going to say on air.

[E]

So he keep asking me that, cuz he knows I'm not going to get an answer. No, no, no, no, no. I ain't even letting you do that.

[B]

My stance was just before I breeze, right? Yes or no? Yes or no?

[E]

Yes.

[G]

All right, so you can't use that. See why I couldn't. You still asking it.

[E]

You better mute up. Yeah, you better mute up, boy. Yeah, yeah. You already know what time it is. You better not say out of you, boy. We know what side you on, boy. But that's why I with Ish, cuz. He ain't going to waver when it's

[A]

something he want late.

[F]

I mean,

[E]

when it's somebody he support, I mean, that's super support.

[A]

Boy, slip that wrong.

[E]

When it's somebody that he supports, he gonna stick on the side.

[A]

Now she is a doctor.

[E]

She put a book out.

[A]

We can't say nothing negative.

[E]

Yo, I didn't.

[B]

I didn't see the genius in it.

[E]

That boy, I can see why your

[A]

number is in the 20 thousands.

[E]

God damn, cuz, he's still able to. Yeah, he can still. When everybody abandoned you like, yo, I'm still here for you, yo, that's his bad.

[B]

I held you down. You know, I was gonna let. I could.

[E]

I could let that play with you down, Doc.

[A]

Only thing being his way is Amani. All right, anyway, moving right along. Moving right along. Yeah, yeah, what's up?

[E]

Anyway, what else is important, unimportant. What else needs our attention, right?

[G]

What?

[F]

I don't know.

[B]

DJ head went and announced that he had edited too hard for the the radio without the disses and said for all my conflicted DJs out here, meaning out there. On the west coast that wants to play this song. I did a version and I took out the disses.

[C]

The head edit pause sound like an ice move.

[B]

Yeah, but you don't put it back out like you do that for yourself. It's not an ice move. I do my edits and keep.

[A]

You distributed. You distributed some edits?

[B]

I distributed one.

[E]

I. I hate when you try to turn your back on black Twitter.

[A]

Yu.

[B]

Yo, we knew you back. I did do an edit before.

[E]

That was three years of beef.

[B]

No, I'm talking about that one. He still had beef over there.

[E]

All right.

[A]

You still a black Twitter dude and black threads. No, Wherever there's black, there's you. Unless it's Cinco de Mayo or St. Patrick's Day.

[G]

Wow.

[A]

Yeah. Or any appropriation day.

[B]

You supposed to be my wow. I put my head down.

[A]

Silent jokes from the newer couch.

[B]

That's cool.

[A]

Silent joke.

[B]

That was wild.

[F]

Nah, look who talking now.

[D]

What I peeped was head basically low key saying, that shit is a slap, but we just don't want to hear you dissing us, right? So I'mma reproduce the song so that all the other Cali DJs could play this slap.

[B]

Well, he walked it back, though. I was just joking. And they jumped on his ass. A slap is a slap.

[A]

They jumped on his ass about what? What he walk back.

[B]

He. He had. Not that he was just joking, so.

[A]

Because he did really put out the dj.

[B]

I know that, but he was like, I should have worded my jokes better. Like, he basically was saying, oh, the backlash. Let me address that by cleaning it up and saying, it's a joke. Even if you put it out, you still. The fact that you didn't stand off, stand behind it and ran and said, all right, it's a joke. You edit some. Edit it. My. Like I said, I've been doing it.

[C]

Yeah, it's not that serious. Plenty of radio DJ edits historically, but

[B]

that speaks to your records that speak to the record.

[A]

Speaking only for me, if anybody I know like or love plays a Joe Button diss record with the Joe Button disses edited, you're still a Joe Button dis record. Like, that didn't change nothing for me that you muted out Joe Button.

[E]

The essence of the song is rooted in Joe Button. Like, we had DJs ingrained in the chakras. So now my man vibing out to it.

[A]

But it's the clean version of Joe Button. I'm looking at my man like, what the are you doing?

[B]

No, hold up. Because when. When Finito. Was. Was doing what it was doing. And that. That is a classic record. The Jersey DJ New. We gotta cut that part out. You're not gonna let this nigga with a smash record come in here and say, I'm blowing New Jersey up in New Jersey. The crowd like, no DJs edited that. So I get what he was doing.

[A]

Yeah, but we was. It's just the announcement of it is

[B]

what where it didn't.

[A]

I don't like that example. Jersey DJs was still fine playing that record because we got the results back of the example that was laid. True. We used to said that everybody in New Jersey knew that Chief Keef was never returning to New Jersey.

[B]

Oh, no, no. Yeah.

[E]

It was very.

[A]

For. For people in the know in New Jersey.

[G]

Oh, no.

[C]

You seen.

[E]

I didn't have no problem listening to

[A]

that song knowing that Chief Keef wasn't coming back to New Jersey after saying that and that he knew it.

[B]

They tried to get him in Atlantic City for something like 10 years later. Nah, sorry. That's Jersey. Nope, nope. So I get it.

[E]

And that was still. Still.

[A]

Now that it's cleared up, that was one of the hardest dishes. No, still, that's one of the hardest disses ever. Even though Jersey learned them, that's still one of the hardest disses ever.

[E]

And I ain't gonna hold you in hindsight now when it come on in the club, boy, do I be jamming same. I jam that. We about to blow New Jersey up.

[C]

Man, you can just flip the media, you know what I mean?

[E]

Nah, I just think about Elizabeth, N.J. when he say that she like. Like by the airport, like all that stink. Warehouse sanitation smell all that. That look like where swamp man was born. Blow all that up.

[A]

That can go. That's just that.

[D]

I mean, that's Ice Hood.

[B]

You know, he kind of. I mean, if you really think about

[A]

it, Ice Hood was in the house, under the bed, tucked in, safe away from danger. Why you keep telling me about a hood?

[E]

What hood?

[A]

You mean the hood? Just blanket. You mean the hood is. Duvet was in his bedroom. What? What hood? Like pajamas. His pajamas had a hood.

[E]

Had a hood on him.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Hood being my hood more than you being yours.

[A]

Ice Hood. Well, they actually tried to kill me in mine, cuz I got busy. What they did to you and yours?

[B]

They tried to get me in mine too.

[A]

What they try to do though?

[B]

They tried to get me in mine.

[A]

That's cuz you tweeted something. They made you get naked and take your Jewelry off.

[B]

No, no, that's.

[A]

Cuz you tweeted something you should have tweeted. They made you get naked out there, right on the. On the machine, man. Have take your J off kindly. But they let him keep his drawers on. They let him keep his drawers on.

[E]

I remember that. They stripped him right down, right by Cinderella. He tweeted something he shouldn't have said. They caught him. He was tweeting it still when this before dropping low became a thing. He was in the strip club. Yo, I'm in here having a blast. They pulled up on him.

[A]

They said, yo, you, you, you. You officially.

[B]

Yo, you making matches.

[E]

I say, yes, I'm officially.

[F]

They said, come out of that.

[A]

Hey, they turned into who Run DMC made that song with Walk this Way.

[B]

This walk.

[E]

Yeah, they told him to walk. They told him to walk this way.

[A]

This nigga's a fool with y'.

[F]

It's cool, man. She happened to the best.

[F]

Got your shit back.

[A]

[C]

I'm sorry you went through that.

[B]

I'm not. I'm here.

[A]

Nigga, you got a new chain now. You'll never risk your life for it. Give it up.

[E]

Anytime they press me for J, I gave it up. I ain't in here playing tough.

[F]

Did they let you take it off like this?

[E]

They used to rob me in the day.

[B]

Took. Nobody took my chain.

[G]

What did they take?

[B]

A watch.

[A]

And his. And his wallet. And his dignity. And his dignity.

[E]

And his Game Boy. Give me that Game Boy took that whole J sport Freeze in it.

[F]

A Game Boy in the this pocket.

[E]

Arsenal was nowhere around. Not his brother or the guns, neither. Arsenals was dead.

[B]

Shouts a baby boy, man absolutely nuts.

[A]

Oh, I'm talking right now. Hey, at least they made Ice strip down. It was a box of breeze in the nighttime. They. They used to rob me.

[E]

Complain that daylight out.

[B]

The sun out, it's wilding.

[A]

It's all. Hey, man, happen to the best of us, man. If you would have got a chain, what you think would happen to you?

[F]

I had a shame.

[A]

I never seen you got. I see a picture of you with a chain.

[B]

Oh.

[F]

You get rid of two of them,

[A]

you post a lot of your old footage. But I never see no footage with a chain.

[F]

Oh, I'll show you.

[H]

All right.

[A]

I gotta see it.

[F]

My chains are still in my house. Still there.

[G]

That's a good way to keep them.

[F]

Yeah, I mean, one of them is fake, so I don't want to wear it no more. You still own it, huh?

[D]

You still own it?

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

Well, let's See, what else is important, what else is unimportant? Oh, we didn't even talk about that

[A]

old torre clip that's floating around about the good dog.

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[G]

Look back to our girl, coach Bryant.

[B]

Doctor. Doctor.

[E]

Ain't no coach Bryant.

[A]

Watch him out. Because you agree with us in the kitchen.

[G]

I still call it Dr. Bryant.

[B]

All right, so why you saying coach?

[A]

You said more in the kitchen too.

[B]

Yeah, you said a lot more.

[G]

What did I say?

[B]

Nothing.

[G]

Oh, about the video. Oh, the video was fire.

[A]

I Join us.

[E]

I hate when you draw your doctor

[A]

line and stay away from us. Join us.

[E]

The video was in.

[D]

She can perform surgery on you.

[B]

CPR coach, baby.

[F]

Yeah.

[A]

Coaches on cpr.

[B]

You know what I'm saying?

[G]

So he got up out of there. They piling on with her a little bit. This is the shit I'm talking about. Right. A video came out of her on the former show. I forget what it was called. I used to work on that show too.

[B]

I was on.

[G]

Basically, she and Terry worked. Worked on a show on. On Fox Soul and they released.

[A]

Re.

[G]

Released. An exchange between her nucleus of who

[E]

they are is discipline and boundaries. If gentle parenting creates gentle children, sign me up.

[G]

I definitely want to create more gentle adults, especially men.

[B]

Hold on.

[E]

Especially men. You are a very, very.

[A]

Hold on, guys.

[E]

Hold on, guys.

[H]

That's what we need in the world

[G]

is more gentle men who understand.

[E]

You're very gentle, and it comes at a thankful. That doesn't always work for people.

[A]

Let's just stop.

[G]

Let's just stop.

[E]

Let's just stop.

[G]

Let's just stop. Let's just stop and go back.

[A]

Tori wiggin out

[G]

because I'm wrapping the show and you're interrupting me.

[E]

First of all, we spent a whole meeting on this. First of all,

[G]

why would you let

[E]

me back the show? I'm ending the show. What is the point of interesting. Like, what is the point? Because you're acting very, very gentle.

[C]

That was a lot of noise.

[G]

She said very gentle and very feminine

[E]

off camera.

[F]

Cuz your phone locked.

[E]

Oh, well, tap into your gentleness and real quick.

[A]

Oh, here we go. All right. Yeah.

[E]

It's not how you professionally approach.

[A]

Here we go. Sorry, y'.

[H]

All.

[A]

I'm back.

[G]

You don't talk to me like that.

[E]

I'm not your wife. I'm not your wife.

[G]

Softy.

[E]

Don't talk. Talk to your wife like. Not me. Talk to your wife like that. Do not talk to me like professional. What? That is not how you.

[B]

Where she from?

[E]

That is not how you professionally approach me.

[A]

Don't that's not very doctor of you to say. Yo, talk to your wife like that.

[E]

I mean, check yourself.

[G]

You don't talk to me like that.

[B]

She had to stand her ground.

[G]

You feel like he was talking to me like that.

[A]

That's what she had to stand her ground.

[G]

That's what you do.

[E]

You better tap into your gentleness and real quick.

[A]

Is it still standing your ground?

[B]

I mean, the nigga came out. I'm looking for a nigga here now.

[A]

Y' all not about to defend this.

[E]

Are we ready?

[D]

Of course I am. You crazy.

[E]

I've been ready.

[B]

Did you see the video? Yeah, the other video.

[E]

Ariba prank together.

[B]

Yes. I'm gonna defend this.

[A]

Oh, got it.

[E]

You ready to already wrap this up? Yes.

[A]

As I was doing.

[E]

And then we'll speak off camera.

[B]

Here we go.

[A]

Then they allowed him to close. Defender, go ahead.

[D]

I think that. I think that you doing that live is whack. I'm not a fan of nobody doing that live.

[A]

Doing what live?

[D]

If we had a conversation behind closed doors and we had this going on, for you to bring that up live and try to embarrass me live, I think that is whack.

[G]

Bring what up live? That's the part I'm not, cuz.

[D]

He said, yo, dog, we just discussed this behind closed doors. You not letting me talk. You're not letting me. Me close up. And he kept cutting her off, cutting her off, cutting her off. If you did that live on air, I think that's unprofessional.

[A]

I don't know what clip you heard. That is not what just happened at all. So what you just said he said was in response to her interrupting him while he was closing the show.

[B]

True. So we talked about.

[A]

Don't talk about closing. We talked about the format of the show, and I'm closing it. Why are you interrupting me? Closing the show with calling me softy?

[B]

That was after his response to her initially interrupting him led to all of that.

[G]

Yes. So this might be helpful. So he was rapping. It's not live, by the way. Okay, so the show's not live. It's. It's pre taped.

[A]

Okay.

[G]

So context that matters when he's talking and trying to give his closing comment. Now, he is trying to get the last word. But you. But he's also driving the show his

[A]

job to give the last.

[E]

I agree.

[G]

And so when she interrupted him, that's why he said, let's stop. Let's just stop. Let's just stop. Let's just stop. He wasn't saying. He's saying, let's just stop the way we sell parks. Hold up for a second. He was saying this wasn't what the fans didn't see this part. He's saying, let's just stop. They only put it out for members only. Cause the ep, from what I've been told, I spoke to her this morning about it, was so embarrassed by it. So he was saying, stop the show. Let's rerecord this without you interrupting me. We just talked about this in the meeting. Don't interrupt me. So he wasn't trying to embarrass her in front of the audience. He was saying, yo, what the fuck are you doing? We already talked about.

[B]

I just talked about this.

[G]

Exactly.

[B]

She came in here and did it anyway. Like, all right, let's go back.

[G]

And then she started hitting him with them jabs. I will add for context. And again, this is what I was told from someone who worked on the show, not the ep, but someone else who worked on the show this morning. I'll tell you exactly what she said.

[F]

I respect my man ish.

[G]

That there were two episodes prior to that that you can look for yourselves and see where t' Ray had been taking jabs at her. And she didn't respond. So there was also a way that she felt like she'd been holding her peace and she'd had enough.

[E]

Got it.

[G]

So even if in that, I'm not saying it's true because I didn't see those other two episodes, but in that moment, it sounded like they had something brewing and that just exploded right there. But I do think from my perspective, in that moment, she was the one who was unprofessional to the extent that she just let him close the show.

[B]

I'm just lost as to cause you you me up when you tell me this is pre taped and not live. Yeah, even with all that, why does this go out if.

[A]

If in that point.

[B]

Exactly at that point, this ain't live. Let's cut it, let's fix it, whatever we gotta do. Let's get this right. Yeah, we had a little back and forth. Yo, we just talked about this. You don't have no why you interrupted me. We just had a meeting. So. All right, we have that. Cut that, come on, let's come back and we put out some clean thousand. According to myself, it seems like this is out for. For a reason. Cause I want people to see the hippies.

[G]

It's re released for a reason. But I will say, according to my sources, they both Wanted it put out right then, at the moment when this happened last year, that they both asked for it to be put out now, I think for the attention. I don't think Shy and Bryan would want to put out right now. I just resurfaced.

[A]

That's the point that I'm getting at. And again, I'm not gonna harp on this for too long. If they having a conversation about is it appropriate to beat your kid or not beat your kids. When is it ever appropriate for you to now attack somebody on their stance? Like all of that. You calling him a softy feminine talk to your wife like that. Not to me. Like she was trying to emasculate him, she was trying to degrade him, and she was trying to stay low, below the belt shit from somebody who is professional. And on a matter like, it's like, what are y' all even, really?

[B]

But I look at that.

[A]

Should you beat your kid or should you not beat your kid?

[B]

She did.

[A]

And then all he said in the closing was, hey, maybe we need gentle adults to raise gentle kids.

[G]

You have gentle parenting, you'll create gentle kids. I was thinking like.

[A]

And you know what she was trying to call him, and you know what she was trying to say. And we're not gonna say that part, of course, but you know what she was calling him, right?

[B]

She went right there. That's the go to.

[G]

But see, Joe, that goes. And Flip, that goes to the thing we were saying earlier when you were asking who, like, what kind of harm has happened in her care if you're not a therapist, let's just say hypothetically you're not a therapist and you about your licenses and you don't have the degree and you're doing. And you're giving bad advice, basically, that kind of. And you're managing someone's relationship and I'm giving relationship advice or parenting advice and stuff like that.

[B]

It could make shit worse.

[E]

Right?

[G]

And I'm trusting you because you got them degrees and them licenses and you say shit like that. That would scare me. Cause I don't think a licensed therapist would say that or should say that. I don't know if they would or not, but I don't think they should. So that would be another reason why this is bigger than just a beef between her and Ture. For me, that to me is more. I don't care about what happened with her and Ture. That's, that's, that's. I worked on that show and I didn't work with. I worked with her. I didn't work with Terra. He wasn't there yet. I think he was my understudy.

[A]

But I hate humble flex.

[G]

I tease the trick. T's my man. No, that was a humble.

[A]

That was me fucking with understudy.

[G]

That's my man. I love Terray. I'm just fucking with him.

[A]

But Little Man's king of fox soul.

[G]

That is not a good thing to be.

[E]

He the fox.

[G]

He the fox body and the Tom Joyner cruises. No, but I think it speaks to a bigger issue that's making people look at her sideways. And it's definitely a cash grab right now. I think anybody who has any Cheyenne Bryant story, any Cheyenne Bryant anecdote, anything, is gonna put it out and monetize it. It's like a Cheyenne Bryant industrial complex right now. When you go on YouTube, there's at least 5,000 videos. All of them got decent number of views on them.

[A]

Well, I'm on her side. Sorry. The game is the game. I didn't make the rules. Whatever she say is going on, she right. I agree with her. She right. Goddamn it. Pretty privilege. Fuck them degrees.

[B]

Fine privilege.

[G]

I hate y'.

[B]

All.

[G]

Y' all so basic.

[A]

Do we want to live in a world where. Where people are not rewarded for their pretty privilege?

[G]

I don't.

[A]

I don't.

[F]

Hell, no.

[A]

Look at this. I mean, I can leave my boy alone, man.

[F]

That's how some of them ain't pay their rent, right?

[A]

Cover up. Because you look.

[G]

You look good. You don't gotta pay.

[F]

You look good.

[B]

He don't play.

[A]

That boy gotta cover. Cover it up during the Cheyenne topic.

[E]

Look at my boy.

[F]

And he got the gray sweat.

[E]

Cover that shit up, boy. He like this, cuz he can't pretend to be cool no more if you

[A]

erect off this conversation. So cover. You doing it right, yo, anyway, it's

[B]

like four pies in a row, bro.

[E]

We move right along, man. Anyway, what else needs our attention? You.

[B]

You told me. You said, yo, I'm. I'm gonna need an ISO. Because we were all wrong about Karisha's record.

[F]

Oh, that scamming he's telling me.

[D]

Well, he told us that.

[F]

Doing numbers.

[A]

I don't know what you.

[F]

That's scamming.

[A]

I ain't gonna lie.

[F]

That doing crazy in the streets, boy.

[E]

All right. I ain't gonna lie to you. I ain't gonna lie to you, buddy. Freeze. Yo, this is not an ad.

[A]

Y' all know me and Karisha don't

[E]

even always see eye to O. This shit is hard. Ish. I ain't gonna lie stuffing that y' all. Sp.

[G]

In the streets. Watch your mouth.

[C]

How can you not like the song

[A]

as a scamming ass, you.

[E]

You all scam he like money.

[A]

I don't defend no scammers. Who do?

[B]

What scammer I defended, huh?

[D]

What scammer have I defended?

[F]

Yourself.

[B]

Yo, these corporations, if you scamming and

[D]

getting off on them, my question is, what scammer have I defended Them that

[B]

go up against the corporation.

[D]

That don't mean that they scammers. They ain't putting that on my name. I don't defend no scammers. Scammers are people out here stealing from.

[A]

So who the that you literally defended a whole booster network.

[D]

I defended a booster network because they

[B]

were stealing from the companies you hate.

[C]

Pablo Torres.

[D]

Pablo Torre.

[B]

No, seriously, back to the booster.

[A]

Listen. Now, granted, what I learned about myself, oh, I was out over the week, and I did hear Janice shut the up outside for y'. All DJs that are playing Janice to shut the up on any of the Drake songs while I'm at the club. Don't think that you need to come over to me and give a disclaimer apologizing.

[B]

And, yo, my bad. So, you know, I had.

[E]

It's a hard record.

[A]

The is hot.

[E]

Don't run from behind there and tell

[A]

me, yo, man, I didn't like this at first, but.

[E]

That's my man.

[A]

Man, shout out to superstar Boogie. That's my man. But I'm like, yo, dog, hot is hot.

[E]

You a dj, you doing your job.

[A]

Play the shit, nigga.

[E]

What I learned about myself was

[A]

I listen to songs. Yes, I listen to songs. Or songs have a different effect on me when I listen to them. The way that Rick Ross listens to his music during verses, right?

[E]

So Janice, shut the fuck up.

[A]

His hands all over me, rubbing my body in the places I like. You just hit different young Miami spitting that while it's on. I'm getting a massage everywhere, yo. Like, I'm not gonna lie to y'.

[G]

All.

[A]

And the songs sound different when it's his ass. And like this, it's a different listening experience. One, two. Boy, I can tell when Puff Daddy is ghost writing from prison,

[E]

yo, yo, Puff can't help but make a hit. He is in Fort Dick's board out his mind. The whole flow, cadence, the topic, all

[A]

of this, it's got Puff name written all over. I don't know who the he think he fooling with this.

[E]

Jy, turn me up. Puff, you not fooling nobody. Yo, this whole song Is a Puff love letter. Hey, wait a minute. Wait. And because I'm a musician, I'mma tell y' all exactly how I know that

[A]

Poff wrote this record. I'mma tell you.

[E]

You probably don't hear it. Here you go, right here.

[G]

Listen.

[A]

No, listen, listen.

[E]

Just finish. You hear how the.

[A]

Is clipped in the first half? Now let's do it. She didn't do that. She didn't do that. Puff did that. That was perfect. Kisha, that song is hard. That song is so hard that when

[E]

I went to go buy it, I

[A]

typed in and nothing popped up. You can tell I ain't bought no fucking Young Miami music. I ain't know what her damn rap name was. I'm in there typing her podcast.

[E]

Karisha, please spin that. Yo, city girl, spin that. I'm typing everything in the world but

[A]

what her name is Young Miami. That record is hard. Sorry. You're gonna hear it, Parks.

[G]

How you feel about it?

[C]

It's all right. I can see how it work. I'm not personally probably gonna turn up to it outside at a strip club. I probably.

[F]

All the girls are going crazy over there.

[A]

Sometimes you got to listen to the woman, y'.

[B]

All.

[A]

Sometimes it ain't about what you think and your dude had. Sometimes you just got to see the reaction and go with the vibe. Shout out to Kisha. Good record.

[F]

All right.

[E]

What else, what else, what else, what else? What else? Anything else in music.

[B]

Anything in music we got. Jim is apparently challenging Cam to a versus in music. What do we think?

[C]

Jim be bored?

[B]

I think he's serious.

[C]

You think so?

[B]

I think he's serious, cuz the way he said it, yo, let's end this once and for all. Me and you keep having back and forth, and Jim really believes that I got enough records to go with any.

[H]

He.

[B]

He believes that. I'm saying.

[C]

I think he.

[B]

Whether it be true or not, I think. But he believes on that stage, I can. I can embarrass anybody.

[C]

Ch has a lot of good records.

[F]

He does.

[B]

He does.

[C]

But I don't anybody embarrass anybody.

[A]

Seem like Jim trying to build hype for. For something. Yeah. Like, you know, Cam ain't probably doing this at all. You know, Cam didn't do this. He didn't want to do the dipset one. So, I mean, we know he not

[B]

doing this even in that the. The. The verses with the lock, like, he. He put the blame on him, and

[A]

it just seemed like typical versus. Yo go out this get him hyped. If they hype enough Then we see if something happened. I just don't see it.

[B]

I don't see it happening, but I. I do. I don't think this is Jim just throwing. I think Jim really wants that, though. That's what I'm saying.

[A]

I'm sure he does.

[B]

Really believe.

[A]

I'm sure.

[B]

I want him across from me on that stage. And I think from his side, this will make a lot of people put more respect on his catalog than they do.

[A]

Do you think that Jim could be Cameron versus

[B]

we take a dipset records off the table, then I'm guessing, right. I don't know that matters. If we taking the Dipset records off and it's your records that I'm not featured on and my records that you're not featured on. Yeah, I think Jim can. If that's what we stuck with now. If we start doing the records that they have with each other

[D]

now, we,

[B]

you know, it muddies the water a little bit. But if we just doing. Give me all of mine and all of yours. Yeah, I think Jim can get them.

[F]

So that means no features.

[G]

No.

[B]

No features. If I'm. If I'm featured on somebody's shit or you featured on some. I'm just talking about nothing with us together Nothing with us together.

[F]

I don't cow with my man

[E]

[D]

Let me talk to y'.

[G]

All.

[B]

Winter Springs remix.

[A]

That's the wrong version. You lucky boy. The Horse and Garage remix.

[E]

Good morning.

[B]

Oh, man, that's a strong one.

[A]

What y' all want to talk about?

[D]

That's a strong six or seven, right?

[G]

That's what I'm saying.

[B]

Because you ain't had nothing going up against him.

[C]

That's why.

[B]

That's all I'm telling you.

[F]

I really mean it.

[D]

I mean, you're making Ice mad right now.

[A]

I don't want to. I'm not doing this right now. I love Jim. Shout to Jim.

[B]

Shout out to Jim to go like that now.

[G]

But it ain't. It ain't going to be close.

[F]

Well, no, I don't think it's not.

[D]

Not be.

[G]

I don't think it's going to be close. Gym is a beast. I love Jim.

[B]

Can be close is all I'm saying.

[G]

The live performance aspect, all that matters. But if we just talking about songs, I don't.

[B]

I think about just songs and it absolutely can be close.

[G]

12 to 8. I'm saying 12 to 8. Stop and I'll leave versus talk alone. But I love Jim. Jim is a beast. Jim is a tough out for anybody. I think Cam.

[A]

Oh, you lucky. Come on.

[B]

He better not. You better leave that. You better play regular.

[D]

Hey, man, get a coat.

[B]

Get a car. Yeah, use that one.

[G]

And then welcome to New York. And then horse the carriage.

[E]

What are you talking about? I hear you again,

[C]

Strangers.

[E]

Whoa. Killer or the girl.

[A]

Yeah, Jim just Paul.

[B]

Yo, now, now, I want to say.

[E]

Don't disrespect Jim. I would never disagree. Jim got a bunch of records.

[A]

But the magnitude of what Cam's records were and are is just a different level of.

[G]

I don't think it's going to impact.

[A]

So I think Jim probably has more because his solo discography should be bigger than Cams now, if I'm not mistaken.

[C]

And they're good projects, but they don't have those.

[A]

Yeah, I ain't going to lie.

[B]

Boy, oh, boy. We going to do that over. I record over here.

[E]

What else is important? What else is unimportant? Let's see. Kisha record is hard. Kevin Hart. We did Jim K. We did what

[B]

Is this Pope apologizes.

[A]

Is that important? Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me.

[G]

So the, the current Pope apologized on behalf of the Church for slavery. I think that's a big deal. I think it's a big deal.

[B]

What the apology came with, that's part two.

[G]

I think you're right. I think it's part two. But part one, if you don't acknowledge culpability, you can't even make the case for money. You know, the US government walked out of the conference in Durban in South Africa a couple decades ago because they wouldn't apologize for slavery. The Church has previously, the previous Pope has apologized for the churches kind of role in slavery. But now they're being even more specific. They're like, look, we were involved in slavery and the Popes themselves helped sanction this stuff. They're making it very clear historically how integrately or intricately tied the Church has been to slavery around the world. And he's apologized for it and he's made it a religious argument. He's like, just in the eyes of God, we have failed. You know what I mean? And we seek your apology now. I'm with you. I need a budget attached to my apology. When you're talking about slavery, I ain't even got.

[B]

Got something, some change, like, like history, like put just them words ain't gonna do it.

[D]

I think, I think acknowledgment is a big step.

[G]

It's step one.

[D]

I think that's a really big step for. For especially as strong as the Vatican is and as the Catholic Church is, I think that's a really, really, really big step. I think we underestimate how strong the Vatican is worldwide.

[G]

Yeah, that Godfather 3 shit wasn't no joke in terms of representing how tied they are. Global power, global finance, all those things. It's a very real thing.

[F]

So you look at it as. This is a good step in the right direction. In the right direction.

[G]

Yeah, I do. I mean, I don't know how it ends, but I do know that this Pope, remember this Pope, first US Born Pope, very clear black roots, crayole roots. You know, he has a nickel in his quarter, you know what I'm saying? He has an investment in this argument. So I think that also matters. And I don't know if any other Pope could have or would have done it. So for me, again, it's a major step forward. Even if it doesn't go anywhere, it still establishes a precedent.

[B]

I agree.

[G]

And it creates a model and that's what I want to see I love when people acknowledge. We always talk about accountability up here.

[B]

I think that's acknowledge some of the

[D]

fucking accountability is a thing.

[G]

Yeah. And it just hasn't happened before. So I just think it's dope. I just think it's dope. I don't know what that means afterward, but that's it. Just wanted to roll that out. But there's some equally important news on the technological front that I think freeze is going to cover for us. Apparently the pet translator is.

[B]

Yeah. So I stumbled upon this the other day. Chinese company.

[D]

Now you can talk to humans.

[E]

Yes.

[G]

That's a funny.

[F]

You hit me in my head. I got a headache. So call me. I didn't hear you.

[G]

Now you can talk to humans.

[F]

Hard to talk to humans.

[A]

Now.

[B]

That was.

[F]

I got that down for I ain't going to laugh ahead.

[B]

I would never even.

[F]

Yeah, it's okay. It's jokes.

[B]

But no, there was a Chinese company said they. They've invented a pet Translator that is 95% accurate.

[F]

Oh. To talk to is dog. Yeah.

[B]

So yeah, now you can be able to talk to your dog.

[A]

I just want.

[D]

Yo, that's fire. All jokes aside, that's. You believe that if that is accurate, if it's 20%.

[F]

Come on, you got all the monies. I got enough.

[B]

Come on, dog.

[G]

Hey, man, I've seen. After you told me this, I went and looked up some apps and there's apparently a bunch of apps that are like cat translator, dog translator. And it says a combination of science and AI and to get your. Your cat's emotions and feelings and to help you understand. Which I'm like, how do you know if it's accurate or not?

[B]

How do you know the market?

[E]

And then you give them food and they're happy.

[G]

Exactly. I'm like, how complicated could my cat be?

[A]

These want to understand pets before they understand. Yeah, let's do a. Let's give them a translator so they know what we mean all the time.

[B]

You know how they feel about pets. You know what pets are on the scale versus us.

[D]

Oh.

[B]

Want to change some laws? Go kill some pets or especially dogs.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. I don't believe the pet. Pet translator at all. Me.

[B]

Not all at all.

[E]

It was just funny.

[B]

And I was like, I got to

[G]

bring it to my guys.

[F]

They had to do something proper for the pets. You know what I'm saying? Salute. I think that's great.

[G]

Would you give.

[A]

You got.

[B]

You got dog.

[F]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I'll download it and you talk to your.

[F]

Your ju where you been going rat

[E]

[G]

That's the guy that showers in the basement as soon as he comes in.

[F]

Oh, y got no animals, boy. I can't have animals. How your dog doing?

[F]

Okay.

You treat your household like a black household or a white household. When it comes to the dog, you

[F]

know what he do.

[A]

Well, you asking ish down.

[D]

I don't know what that mean.

[B]

You know, it's different rules for the

[F]

households where all my scamming ass niggas

[B]

at black households and dogs behave differently than white households and dogs.

[G]

Like.

[B]

Like black people don't let dog in the kitchen. You're not getting on the bed all. It's certain that black households don't tell

[A]

them about us for easy.

[D]

My dog can't get on the bed.

[G]

Do y' all do, like, the mouth kisses with the dog and all that?

[B]

Kiss the dog in the mouth?

[D]

That ain't white, but no. I mean, I don't do that nasty. I've seen you kiss your dog in the mouth white.

[A]

When he did it, I know it was still how I gave your talk.

[D]

Cause you said yeah. Tell him how.

[A]

Defend yourself without me, nigga.

[D]

Tell them how we do it. Free show.

[B]

You interest yourself.

[A]

Make yourself without inserting me.

[G]

All right, all right.

[B]

Never mind.

[E]

He don't ask boss to cut it out.

[A]

Yeah, yo, I'm glad you said that. That was hilarious. What do y' all think? What do y' all think? One of my favorite things to watch in these commercials is how they taking the dope popular hip hop song or crystal water song or whatever the popular song is and making it their own for the commercial. Yeah, these are interpolation. So I'm sure somebody's getting paid. But how much money do y' all think is in that field?

[C]

Oh, a lot, a lot. Especially from pharmaceutical companies. Yeah.

[B]

And that shit gonna get some.

[A]

I done heard Hip Hop Hooray they done took Nuck if you buck.

[C]

I didn't hear that one yet.

[D]

I didn't hear that one.

[B]

I heard Hip Hop Hooray one.

[F]

Yeah.

[E]

It was about Crystal Waters, the crazy shit.

[A]

CC Peniston are the artist getting paid. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well whoever owns it, whoever wrote song, whoever.

[F]

Yeah, y at my old ass aunt house. And you know those infomercials that sell.

[C]

Yes.

[F]

She fell for all that.

[E]

She was tight.

[F]

She showed me a closet. I said, you bought this?

[D]

That is a thing.

[F]

She said, none of that worked. She said the only thing that worked was the oven cleaner. She said none of that worked. The frying pan, none of that. I said, you bought that

[D]

watching qvc. What do you think? QVC and Home Shopping Network.

[A]

I get it.

[F]

But if it don't work, why would you say still buy more? That's the point.

[B]

It's quite a bad one here. They addicted to that, bro.

[A]

As a giant fan, to answer your question, I would have rather not seen Jackson dart indeed do what he did. I'm with people having their own political beliefs, but the second you introduce him and get this right right wing crowd to say go blue, boys in blue, go blue. Like it was extra. I also don't think the extra Abdul Carter needed to say anything publicly. That should have been handled behind closed doors from the rip. But part of a locker room is being able to bring together people from all walks of life. So everybody in there ain't gotta be aligned in your political views. But you do have to find a way to be a team and not cause dysfunction in the team. And even though the season hasn't started, if you are the quarterback, the most

[D]

important position, the position matters.

[A]

What you do in your own off time does affect the team. And with the new coach and just a new new players, now is not the time for that. Jackson. Darren, Are you an old lineman, second year player? Like why do we come on matter

[D]

if you being a quarterback? Because you are a leader of men. You know what I'm saying? And because you're a quarterback, you want to have your unit be as cohesive as possible. If you create any level of division or dissension in amongst the ranks, you're doing a bad job. So I think think that he. He's so young too. I'll give him a Little pass. But you got to read the room, bro. And you got to read the room.

[G]

The country. Yeah.

[B]

Well, I agree, a lot of Reading the Country is going to.

[D]

With him about to say, no, it don't matter. You said that doesn't matter. Yo, my locker room. My locker room is a mix. Not even a mix. I don't know what the. The Giants makeup is, but I'm sure a decent percentage of the Giants employee base case is black.

[B]

Now, I was just speaking to you saying, read the room, read the country. I'm like, yes, there is a side

[A]

of the liberal audience.

[B]

Right. There's a side of the country that's going to be good. We're glad he did that. Yeah.

[A]

The Giants.

[D]

Yes.

[G]

And in New York, New York City.

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

All of that.

[A]

This ain't San Fran and Nick Bosa. Yeah. This is New York City and Jackson Dart.

[G]

So just a question, though. What, what if he introduced Obama and he had a bunch of conservative old linemen from Buckeye State? The difference would we be saying, you lose in the locker room, don't do it.

[D]

It's a very big difference. Because when Obama was the president of the United States, Obama wasn't pushing division. Donald Trump is clearly pushing division. They're doing things that are mad divisive. In fact, black people dissed Obama for not doing enough for black people. So Obama wasn't pushing this divide.

[G]

I'm not comparing Obama and Trump. I'm just saying. No, no, I get your point. I agree with your point. I'm just pushing the conversation somewhere else and saying, what if you lose the locker room, but you're doing the right thing. Like if he were taking a principal position, but the locker room is racist. There's a lot of conservatives in locker rooms too, these days. You know what I mean? Especially. And there's a lot of secret Trump people. And I'm just saying I don't like to lose the locker room argument sometimes because you could be doing, doing something principled.

[D]

Yes and no. I think that again, that just goes back to reading the room. I think if you stand in your principle, I. E. Colin Kaepernick, would you

[G]

feel better about it if he lost a lot? And I'm not asking. I'm really asking.

[D]

No, no, no, I wouldn't. I wouldn't feel better. But I think depending on what you are siding with matters, it matters. Again, like, Colin Kaepernick was the quarterback. He decided to take a stance for a principle that I don't think anybody in there right mind could say, yo, he was bugging the out because of what he took a stance.

[B]

And it's the action too. Like, again, I'm introducing this dude. That's not the same as taking a stance.

[A]

Right?

[G]

I'm just saying if he introduced. If he'd introduced, like, Sharpton.

[A]

But it's not just he introduced him. You introduced him on the heels of him rewarding the January 6th people. You did it on the heels of him letting some of these people out of jail. You did it on the heels of certain legislation that he signed. You did it on the heels of.

[E]

While we at this.

[A]

Yo, listen, you know I don't root for nobody to die like I'm pro life. Everybody, whether we agree or whether we disagree.

[E]

But again, I said it before, I say it now. The team of assassins hired to take out Trump. Y' all need to be banned from assassin world. Y' all need to lose y' all assassin cards. Y' all are the worst planners of assassination that I've ever seen. Why are y' all still getting tasked with this in any of the movies or the TV shows I saw? When the killer team can't get it done, you lose your. Your book of business.

[B]

No.

[E]

How come they still keep getting another shot? Nigga, y' all ran up to the White House and just started bucking. That plan was gonna be ineffective the second you thought of it. See, this ain't watch no 24 at all.

[C]

Cause they're actors.

[G]

Yes, I must say, that's why I joined the Newark couch. That shit ain't real. I think everybody one of them assassins is designed to make Trump look like,

[E]

oh, it was actors when Alec Baldwin did it. I mean, an accident can happen is all I'm saying.

[G]

You want a rogue accident?

[E]

Jesus.

[A]

Yo, this guy's crazy. Anyway, sorry about that.

[D]

That ball and go.

[A]

I ain't letting that go. I know you a with that. And that lady husband had to bury her.

[G]

What? I'm sorry. I was on the show then. Did you think I it on purpose or something?

[A]

No.

[G]

Oh, okay.

[A]

No, okay.

[G]

I didn't know.

[A]

I also didn't think that you needed to do it on purpose to face some type of consequences.

[G]

Oh, okay. You just said you didn't like that the outcome. I'm with you.

[A]

Yeah. Yeah, okay. Yeah, for sure.

[G]

Gotcha. I just didn't know that I don't

[A]

have anything else that is burning a hole in my mind, heart, body, spirit and soul. How about you guys?

[G]

Please, please, just need 30 seconds. Please get your to do a rest in peace.

[C]

Oh, yeah, we Gotta do. Sonny Rollins.

[G]

To the great Sonny Rollins. One of the greatest jazz artists in American. In music history. One of the greatest artists in music history, indeed, you know, died at the age of 95. One of the greatest saxophonists of all time. If you know anything about music. Hopefully Imani can touch on it later. He's a music person, but like Sonny Rollins played with Bud Powell, played with Charlie Parker, played with Miles. Miles Davis played with Coltrane. Everybody, Everybody, everybody. He comes out of the bebop era. He's a child and really kind of modernized improvisation, jazz improvisation. So he has songs that like. I mean, there's so many. But that are standards now that are literal jazz standards now. There are just few artists who have mattered as much to a genre as Sonny Rollins did. And I wish that more people knew him. The Grammys gave him his lifetime achievement award a while back. But you talking about eight decades of.

[E]

Of.

[G]

Of musicianship and one of the greatest tenor saxophonists we've ever seen. So just rest in peace to. To. To him and. And hopefully his legacy will live on.

[A]

Work.

[G]

Thank you.

[F]

Rest in peace.

[A]
