Tam Bam
Ain't nobody sent me since last week.
AJ Holiday
No money.
Tam Bam
How was your weekend?
AJ Holiday
I didn't do much this weekend, child. I. I got out the house a little bit on Saturday. Sunday, I ain't leave this bitch at all, okay? Trying to. Just doing some late spring cleaning. Getting rid of shit I haven't touched in a long time that I moved in this place and should have never moved in here.
Tam Bam
Okay?
AJ Holiday
Throwing away old drawers and clothes. Waiting on Victoria's Secret next to me. Annual sale, because that's the only time I buy panties to not wear them, okay? I hate undergarments. Be outside. No bra, long titties, okay? On the weekend. That's me. Actually, these titties is not long. I had to lift them up a little bit.
Tam Bam
But they, for their size, they sit up pretty good.
AJ Holiday
You know, you gotta do push ups, like wall push ups.
Tam Bam
I need to do them cause mine little and hang low.
AJ Holiday
So I do much this weekend, Child, not for real. Oh, hold on. Sorry. Let me. Can I add this right quick?
Tam Bam
Sure.
AJ Holiday
So I did. I went, like, did a little bit of shopping this weekend. And I went to Nike Outlet to return or exchange some sneakers I bought my mom for Mother's Day. And you know, y' all demons are really real. So I'm in Nike and these two guys is walking in at the same time. I was right. So now, you know, they already saying, like, little things as I'm walking in the door. I'm like, oh, God, here we go. So I'm in there like, a good 15 minutes, okay? Then finally one Moses ass over. When I tell y' all. This motherfucker would not. He refused to, like, go no matter what I said. What? He was like, I'm leaving. Like, I had to give him my number. I had to give him, like, my Google voice number in order to get him to leave. But it was 20 minutes later. Like, I couldn't even focus on you.
Tam Bam
Around the store for twice.
AJ Holiday
Yes. And when he finally got the fuck from by me, because I still don't be trying to be, like, real nasty to people. Think I think I'm mean. But, like, I really, like, wasn't trying to just be super nasty to him. But you really cannot entertain men at all if you're not interested. You can't even, like, give them a smidget of conversation at all that by the time I got to the register with my shit, bitch, it's one o' clock. I felt so depleted, my energy was so low. Like, that motherfucker, at least pay for.
Tam Bam
Your shit at that point. You know what?
AJ Holiday
Exactly. Now, that would have got my number, right? He was offering to carry my stuff around the store, but at no point did you say, I'mma meet you at the register. Now, see, that's how sprinkle, sprinkle, you get a bitch. But now you just straight robbed me of my energy.
Tam Bam
You wouldn't have gave me your number if he bought you that shit. You would have been like, thank you, God.
AJ Holiday
I would have still gave him that Google voice number for sure. The only problem with the Google voice.
Tam Bam
That'S your number stories.
AJ Holiday
But anyway, that was, like, part of my. And I had to, like, go to my dad's house because he's nearby, like, the outlets where I was at, to just sit down for a little bit afterwards, y' all.
Tam Bam
Well, speaking of following you, a y n followed me from the gym to your house. No, I didn't. I saw him following me. So when I was walking, I was already in my car leaving the gym. I seen him watching me in the gym, but I was just ignoring. He young as hell, right? So then I walked to my car. I'm driving out the parking lot. He's coming out the door, and he waving, and I just wave, you know, get up out of there. But then I see, like, the parking lot that the gym is in has potholes, so I can't, like, skirt, skirt too fast. Right as I'm going, I go down the street, and then I'm turning, and I see this white truck come flying down the street. So I'm like, there's great potential that. That's. That y. So I turn and I'm headed toward the house. And instead of turning on my street, something said, turn on this street right here. So I turn and the truck passes me. So I'm like, okay, well, maybe that wasn't him. Maybe I'm just being paranoid. So then I turn this yard and I turn around and to come back out. And when I'm coming back out, the white truck turns, makes the left right there and kind of blocks me in.
AJ Holiday
Ah, yeah.
Tam Bam
And then he was like, I'm sorry. I didn't want to look like I was following you. I'm not following you. I just really wanted to talk to you.
AJ Holiday
You Are following.
Tam Bam
Are following me.
AJ Holiday
Yo. Men are nuts.
Tam Bam
You follow me? He's like, I just really wanted to get your number. I was like, how old are you? He's like, I'm 25.

AJ Holiday
Yeah, but you had that abortion with you. Like, I had the abortion because I definitely could have a damn 25.
Tam Bam

I know you've been hanging out in New York all year, so you know the cut on your face, you know, let me knock on some wood. The cut like from the air to the mouth, like, like you knew when you saw me you should not be talking to me.
Tam Bam
Right.
AJ Holiday
Let's just know your hollow level. But you know, the nice looking men. Don't be hollering at me.
Tam Bam
I don't believe in knowing your hollow level. I think you should always holler outside of what you think you can get. Because you would be surprised.
AJ Holiday
No man with a man.
Tam Bam
And you'd be like, how the he got her?
AJ Holiday
Yeah. Because he probably looked like he got some money. He might be up looking, but he might look. He might look like money, though. This did not look like money.
Tam Bam
You can get. You never know what God has for in store for you.
AJ Holiday
Absolutely not. I did not send that demon to like still rob my energy. That's a whole stranger, let me tell you.
Tam Bam

I was jealous of everybody. I was watching everybody's story like, oh, they're having such a good time. I. I have not done nothing but work and work out. That's it for weeks now.

AJ Holiday
Child.
Tam Bam
So there was a cookout at a plantation over the weekend.
AJ Holiday
No, that was insurance fraud. Okay.
Tam Bam
So the largest antebellum plantation home in the United States has been destroyed in a home fire. I know y' all saw it because was celebrating and dancing. They was outside.
AJ Holiday
Fish fry.
Tam Bam
It was a fish fry in the front yard. It was pouring. Look out for the homies that went in there. It was a lot going on, and a lot of people were distraught about it, you know, like saying how sad it was and how they had their wedding there and how it was a beautiful place that. With a lot of great memories.
AJ Holiday
How did the fire start?
Tam Bam
Did you see? It doesn't. It doesn't say. I haven't seen any reports on.
AJ Holiday
So now this is a. This is a. Essentially an A venue now. Nobody actually lives in the home.
Tam Bam
No, it's a. It's a 53,000 square foot property and it is used for, like, events.
AJ Holiday
Yeah, we have places like that here, like Middleton Plantation. So. Yeah, like real historic plantations. Yeah. That's probably insurance fraud all day long. Okay. The economy about to get real bad before it gets better. And these people know how to scam. Okay.
Tam Bam
It says the fire started in a bedroom on the second floor of the home, but they don't know how it was started.
AJ Holiday
And nobody was there.
Tam Bam
Staff said they noticed smoke, so the ancestors did it. Probably they were sick of it. Burn it up. Burn it down. Imagine. Imagine people going to have their wedding at a concentration camp. You know, you wouldn't want to have a wedding there. This. That's a horror house for black.
AJ Holiday
In Charleston, we got a lot of plantations, right? So Boone Hall Plantation is in this area called Mount Pleasant. And people. There's always tours there. People get married there. And I remember there was like a headline because one of the tourists was upset that because of, like, a part of the tour was talking about slavery, and she just thought it was so excessive.
Chamberlain University
Bitch.
AJ Holiday
Like, this is weird. This. That's the main story.
Tam Bam
You came To a plantation house and.
AJ Holiday
Mad because they're talking about slavery at the plantation. The awe, the caw, the cautacity or cardassity, whatever.
Tam Bam
Yeah, you're offended.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. Imagine that.
Tam Bam
Yeah.
AJ Holiday
Anyway, all right, so 27 year old black woman found alive. This is the headline y' all. And I don't know what the y' all doing. That hair look a little like she.
Tam Bam
Look out there for three weeks. Her hair look right? It look good for what she been through.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. Walking dead cast member so 27 year old black woman found alive after surviving three weeks alone in the mountains, fighting off animals, hiking 11,000 foot peaks, enduring 13 snowstorms and staying alive on wild leaks and boiled snow. Okay, 27 year old, she's backpacking in California's Sierra desert. Excuse me, Sierra Nevada mountains. And she never returned. After falling from a cliff and injuring both legs, she lost her gear and survived three weeks alone. She braved 13 snowstorms, fought off the wild animals and lived on wild leaks and melted snow. Just when hope was fading, she found an unlocked cabin and was discovered eight hours later. She's now safe and recovering and living remainder of strength and survival. Whatever that means. I don't know.
Tam Bam
It reminds me of the movie Castaway with my favorite Tom Hanks.
AJ Holiday
I love that movie.
Tam Bam
Me too, me too. I love that movie.
AJ Holiday
Girl.
Tam Bam
Kudos to this black woman because why?
AJ Holiday

AJ Holiday
13 snowstorms.
Tam Bam

AJ Holiday
Yeah. And her name is Tiffany Slayton. I'm trying to figure out why the Tiffany. Why are you went out there by yourself?
Tam Bam
Why was you out there? That's why people shit.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. Like you know, and I always feel. I always feel like white people be doing like skydiving and like that because they be like trying to feel alive. So they do a lot of daredevil to get close to death.
Tam Bam
I adrenaline junkie is what it's called. And I know people like that. There are also our black.
AJ Holiday
I have a good close black men like motorcycles black. That's like daredevil.
Tam Bam
Like to jump off of and jump out of and skydive. And she love a roller coaster that go fast and she's just an adrenaline.
AJ Holiday
I don't like that stuff. Even with roller coasters, like you know how they do like those videos. You can see your picture afterwards. Like I'm always Looking like I'm seasoned. Like I'm having a seizure in them. In them pictures. Because I think you be, like, near death and don't realize it.
Tam Bam
First of all, I be sleep every time. Because as soon as we go, I pass out. It's a waste of money for me because I don't remember none of it.
AJ Holiday
Hold on. You pass out on a roller coaster.
Tam Bam
I faint. That's what I'm saying.
AJ Holiday
Like, you probably die.
Tam Bam
Yeah. I faint and it's over. How was it, everybody?
AJ Holiday
Why would you do that? Like, I stopped doing roller coasters. That don't make sense to me no more.
Tam Bam
Yeah, no, it don't make sense for me. So you ain't about to catch me Nap is crazy.
AJ Holiday
I'm not about to be hiking nowhere. Like, y' all tripping.
Tam Bam
It ain't for me.
AJ Holiday
Yeah, but shout out to you, Tiffany, Chad. I don't know what the blood clot.
Tam Bam
You got purpose, baby girl. Come on the show, Talk about what happened. We love to have you foolishness. And I'll give you a silk press before the episode. Cause baby Essene.
AJ Holiday
So obviously Boss Mandelo was like. He's been finessing us a little bit.
Tam Bam
I think he just been telling us and minding his business.
AJ Holiday
Cause this is like the second allegation, is it not?
Tam Bam
I don't know. I haven't heard about it.
AJ Holiday
Well, I don't wanna call it an allegation. So this is the second time, like, it's been in the headlines that Boss Mand. He made, like, trans women.
Tam Bam
Yeah.
AJ Holiday
Which is okay. You know, that's his business. But it's just funny that the name is Boss Man Dlo Downlo.
Tam Bam
But it's like, I'm telling y' all who I am. You have to listen. Right?
AJ Holiday
Yeah. Like, sneaky, sneaky. Yeah. I don't know.
Tam Bam
Listen. It's like my name being like, tam Bam gay when I'm drunk, and then I do some gay when I'm drunk. And everybody like, oh, she was gay.
AJ Holiday
No. Is that the same thing? You actually say gay? Like his name is Devonte or something. His real name. So the D makes sense. But the low. Where did that come from?
Tam Bam
Right from his extracurricular activity.
AJ Holiday
So, yeah, there's a trans woman basically trying to out him. And this is why. I don't like that. Like, why are you. Why do they use. Like, if you want men, they say it's our fault that men don't come out. And it's just not true. Because, like I said, there's a Lot of black women in particular that are down with bisexual men. Like, they are okay with that. I really feel like it's. Y' all homeboys. Y' all don't want them to know that you like trans women or gay or you're. You know, they don't consider themselves gay.
Tam Bam
If nobody, like, why would you do that to him? Like as a trans person?
AJ Holiday
Yeah, they're weaponizing it. They're weaponizing like being gay or men being attractive to men, being attracted to.
Tam Bam
Other men, you know, so that's up on that. Yeah.
AJ Holiday
And it's clearly like, you know, we.
Tam Bam
Don'T hear making jokes and it's not nice, you know.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. That is whack.
Tam Bam
Yeah, yeah. Music, download, delo, whatever. The keep making them hits. We gonna support it.
AJ Holiday
And he might blow up even more because. Right. You know how the industry get down. Talk about the Diddy trial later. We already know how they get down. So, you know, that's right up his. That's right up the alley with his. Right along with his peers. Right, boss? Mandela, be yourself. That's it.
Tam Bam
There it is. All right. Halle Bailey granted temporary physical and legal custody of son Halo after ex boyfriend DDG's alleged abuse. So I don't know. All right. According to court documents attained by People, the Little Mermaid star, 25, was granted sole legal and physical custody of her 16 month old son, Halo Saint, who whom she welcomed in December 2023 with ex boyfriend DDG. The angel singer requested soul custody of the after she alleged the 27 year old rapper DDG abused her physically and emotionally. The temporary restraining order, which orders the Twitch streamer to remain over 100 yards away from Bailey and Halo at all times, expires June 4, 2025. Bailey.
AJ Holiday
I think that's their court date too.
Tam Bam
Yeah. On their court hearing. Yep. Bailey also asked the judge to order her ex boyfriend not to be allowed visitation with her son. However, she requested that DDG be given supervised visits with a professional company once a week for six hours with Halo while Halo is in la. Additionally, Bailey is asking the court to prevent DDG from taking their son outside of the court. County of Los Angeles.
AJ Holiday
So apparently he had threatened her. Like, you know, basically taking the son and not ever bringing him back. Things like that.
Tam Bam
His hands on her too.
AJ Holiday
Yeah, there was one incident. She said that he slammed her head against the steering wheel of the car and chipped her tooth. And this was actually before the son was born. So, you know, you really can't trust a nigga who don't even use his real voice. Okay, let's be very clear. Okay. He's a chameleon. We all know who these people be. For real.
Tam Bam
Yeah. Because his voice is really deep, and he makes it very delicate.
AJ Holiday
Yeah.
Tam Bam
I like the deeper voice better, honestly.
AJ Holiday
But it would probably sound like Shine on an album, you know?
Tam Bam
You know, I liked how Shine sound.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. I don't know What's. What's up with these guys, man. You know, I just. I don't. I don't. I don't know. I don't know.
Tam Bam
It's scary.
AJ Holiday
Keep your hands to yourself, man. And you doing that to the Little Mermaid, like you beat up. You won't get beat up by the people. Why are you putting your hands on a Little Mermaid?
Tam Bam
Yeah, man. Come on.
AJ Holiday
You know, and it just. It just be making me feel like, do y' all even like women?
Tam Bam
For real?
AJ Holiday
It's like they get these bigger. They get these women who are, like, at the height of their careers and stuff like that, and then you're secretly, like, tearing them down in the background, you know? And this is all alleged, but she was granted, you know, custody of her child, so the evidence has to be there. Right. But that kind of leads us to our topic today. We want to talk a little bit about what's going on with Tory Lanez and what's going on with Diddy. The Diddy trial, y' all know, it started last week. Yeah, that got a little real. Right. So we just want to explore some of the details surrounding these two cases. Well, one of them is out of court, all right. Because Tory Lanez is in prison and he was just recently assaulted by another inmate. And since then, all these other things have come out about that case. So we'll get to that as soon as we get back from this break. The first two months of 2025 have been quite a year.

Tam Bam
I just want to say before we get into the thick of it, I used to tell men that I was a lady in public. In a freaking private. I lied. I've been lying to these niggas. I am not a freak. After reading some of this shit, they was freaking off. Oh, I ain't no freak. I've been having vanilla sex this whole time. It didn't.
AJ Holiday
Basic. Basic Betty.
Tam Bam
Basic Betty. Reggie.
AJ Holiday
Regular weed. Yeah, I'm not. I'm just not nasty enough. You know what I'm saying? I thought I was a freak.
Tam Bam
I ain't no freak. I'm regular as hell.
AJ Holiday
I never thought I was a freak. Anytime, anytime somebody would even suggest that, I'd be like, I'm just a grown woman. Like, I'm just an adult.
Tam Bam
PP in the mouth is crazy. What is happening.
AJ Holiday
Yeah, it's all just a bit much. It's all just a bit much.
Tam Bam
It's a lot.
AJ Holiday
And, you know, I think the whole. Most of the world, right? I know I got into an argument with one of my. I guess we. Starting with.
Tam Bam
Diddy.
AJ Holiday
I remember when the video with him stumping Cassie out in this hallway at this hotel came out, and one of my homeboys suggested that it might have been AI. I was like, now, come on, come on, man. He's actually stumping her on video. And you say it could possibly be AI. I know AI makes us question reality for real nowadays, but have some discernment, right? So when that happened, you know, the whole world was like, oh, my God, like, Diddy is such a fucking monster, right? And now since. Did he. When did he actually go to jail? Did he has been locked up. It seems like a year now, almost, right?
Tam Bam
Over a year.
AJ Holiday
No, because all of this kind of just transpired like last April, right? Like when. When they raided his home. And then the next couple months, then they finally picked him up. But anyway, he's been in jail for a while now, at least six months plus. Right. And now his trial has started. It started just last week. And what I don't understand is how Cassie wins a civil lawsuit against him, which it came out in court that it was a $20 million lawsuit. Right? So he paid her $20 million.
Tam Bam
I thought it was.
AJ Holiday
It came out during trial. Right. How can they. How can the. The state. I'm sorry, how can the federal government then still use her as a key witness in a criminal trial? Because I thought the whole thing with, you know, with her suing him in the civil lawsuit was because the statute of limitation had already passed for the, the essay situation. Right. So how can they then use her as a key witness in the criminal trial against him? Because he's being charged with. He actually has a RICO charge. He's being charged with racketeering. He has like two counts of trafficking by force, fraud and coercion, then sex trafficking also. I just. How can they use her after the fact as a key witness, you know what I'm saying? Because now he is being tried for the abuse.
Tam Bam
Get cut of that 20 million.
AJ Holiday
Well, because now he is being tried for the abuse of Cassie because that's going to be in the minds of the jury, right or wrong. So I think the, the first day, I kind of have been trying to follow along with what, with what's been going on with the case. I know, like the, the second day Cassie kind of took the stand and I think her husband, Alex Fine was also there. They did have him not come back, though, I think for some part of testimony, because he may be called as a witness at a later time. But some of the, like, explicit things that are coming out in this case, it almost makes you like, is, is, was, was Cassie complicit is what I'm trying to get at, I think.
Tam Bam
Yeah. So that's, I have mixed feelings about that because. Was she abused?
AJ Holiday
Yes, evidently she was abused and conditioned probably, yes.
Tam Bam
Abused by this man. Even her former best friend of nearly 20 years stopped being her friend because Diddy hit her and she wasn't going for it.
AJ Holiday
Oh, that's really some Ike Turner. Remember the home girl?
Tam Bam
He got a. Got to put his hands on people one time.
AJ Holiday
That's really a bad woman.
Tam Bam
And then she had her sign an NDA and she was paid $30,000. And then after that they were no longer friends. So, I mean, there's, there is evidence that she was a bit complicit in, in some of the behavior that was going on and some of the sexual acts she agreed to and supported. And maybe she didn't like all of it. Maybe it was because she just was trying to hold on to whatever fame and, you know, the advantages of dealing with someone with the power that Diddy had, you know, you're a young girl. You don't really. She didn't come from money, I don't think so. She didn't come from a whole lot. Not the kind of money he had. And this man that she clearly loved at some point, and he provides her access to fame and fortune and all these things. That she wouldn't have. But in turn, she has to take some physical abuse and mental abuse and sexual abuse, you know, for it. And a part of her, it sounds like she might have been complicit, you.
AJ Holiday
Know, and, you know, it just makes me think about, like, you know, all these different cases, the MeToo movement and stuff like that. You know, we really have to do, like, real life deep diving on a lot of things before we condemn people. I try not to condemn people. Who I do condemn is like, people who abuse children. I'm gonna condemn your ass all the time. Now, Cassie was 19 years old when she started dating Diddy. She was originally dating Ryan Leslie. Now, Ryan Leslie, she was 19, and Ryan Leslie was 29 at the time. So regardless, like, she's always been dealing with these older men. And, you know, as a young. As a young woman, you know, because we've been young, I started the episode off saying how I was pregnant at 15. Okay? Not proud or ashamed of it. Just it is what it is. And it was for an older guy, 19 years old now that's not 29. And we know that, you know, men don't even develop as fast as women oftentimes, but the responsible party is always going to be the older person. And it's. I mean, it's. It's unfortunate, guys, you know, you're a man, y' all want to be the lead. And then now you are also older. So no matter how this person looks, ass fat, whatever it is, Cassie has very. She looks a young girl. She looked like a young girl even then. Right. Very impressionable, you know, and I think a lot of times people take advantage of people who come from nothing oftentimes because they're willing to do anything to never go back there. Right, Right. So now you have access to this, to the limelight celebrity you fucking with. Diddy, one of the biggest moguls even, you know, when at that. That long ago. Diddy has been a mogul. Diddy has been Diddy for a very long time. Okay? He's been that nigga in the industry for a very long time. He has had money for a very.
Tam Bam
Long time, in power for a long time.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. So she seems like she was very much so complicit. She actually orchestrated some of these freak offs. You know, she was the one that sought out the male prostitutes via Craigslist. Could you bitch if I kicked your ass?
Tam Bam
Oh, my God.
AJ Holiday
You know, I'm sorry. I'm so stupid.
Tam Bam
Yo, that. Wow, that is really wild that you some stranger off of Craigslist.
AJ Holiday
I just. So I'm trying to figure out, like, what. I don't. I don't know, because I'm not somebody who's easily, like, programmable. I do be trying to physically figure out, like, the psychology of people and how these things actually happen and happen. But it is conditioning, you know what I'm saying? Like, somebody might start off with, like, choking you on the wall but kissing you passionately at the same time.
Tam Bam
I like that.
AJ Holiday
No, but it could escalate from there, right? That's just how it starts.
Tam Bam
But I like that.
AJ Holiday
You see, bitch, you gonna wake up one morning, like, how did I get here? Because you like.
Tam Bam
No, don't speak that over me. I rebuke that in the name of Jesus. Listen, I like that, but I got boundaries, you know? I just feel like maybe as a young girl, she just wasn't able to, like, understand how to create boundaries, especially sexual boundaries with this man. Ain't no way she, like, pee pee in her mouth. I can't believe that.
AJ Holiday
Yeah, and one of. One of the. One of the guys, his name is Daniel Phillips. He was a male dancer that he, you know, one of the guys who testified and who testified last week, who was hired by Cassie and Diddy on multiple occasions. And he said he made upwards, like, from between 700 and $3,800 per session. And if he didn't perform, he didn't get paid shit. So I guess, you know. And he even witnessed some of the abuse also. But still, like, continued on, you know, witness Diddy abuse Cassie, you know, in between sessions and shit like that. Like, that is. That's like, horrific. It's conditioning, you know. And then imagine, I seen this video recently where Whitney Williams, this is, I don't know how many years ago now, because, you know, she'd been on Diddy neck for a very long time. He even caused her to get fired once, you know, when she. She put out there that he actually preferred men, right? She was saying, like, I would be afraid fucking with Diddy. Like, this is a man who could just rent. Get his helicopter or private jet and land on the top of whatever building you're staying in. You know what I'm saying? He blew Kid Cudi's car up because Cassie was with Kid. With Kid Cudi. He suggested that. That Cassie, you know, did like, you know, music with Kid Cudi.
Tam Bam
Right. Has that been proven that he did?
AJ Holiday
No, absolutely. This is in the court documents. Absolutely. He blew his. Cudi actually came out and talked about it last year, but this has come come up last week in court. So, yes, he absolutely blew up. Well, he threatened to blow up kids, Cudi, Kid Cudi's car. And then the car blows up. Okay?
Tam Bam
It's what happened when Diddy was the joker for Halloween. He looked like he was being his true self.
AJ Holiday
He really, I mean, that's really what Halloween is about.
Tam Bam
Fun. Fun in that costume didn't look like an act.
AJ Holiday
Not at all.
Tam Bam
A little scary.
AJ Holiday
So, yeah, so did he. I. I don't know. I don't know that. I think Cassie had to testify or she would be an accomplice. You know, she might have ended up with these same charges if she didn't testify. So she might be cooperating with the US government to take Diddy. The first two months of 2025 have been quite a year.

Find out more@stateforum.com because if she didn't.
AJ Holiday
If she didn't, she'd probably have the same charges as he does now. She's the person that got trafficked. Her and then one other Jane Doe. So there's not like a whole. I don't think that they're calculating these, the men that they had come places paying, right there's, she's the victim. She, her and then one other Jane Doe are the sex people who were sex trafficked essentially because Diddy was. Diddy was paying men to have sex with her. That's weird, is it not?
Tam Bam
It is.
AJ Holiday
I feel like girl, why weren't you getting paid to have sex with these people? Why weren't why wasn't? I guess Diddy was paying her essentially because of her lifestyle. But obviously it wasn't enough because you didn't have enough resources at the end of the day to really get away from him. And Alex Fine was actually hired by.
Tam Bam
Diddy as her resources to get away from Diddy. You just said the motherfucker could drop on the top of building you in in a helicopter. The fuck what kind of resources you need all you got, you know?
AJ Holiday
Yeah. And I'm pretty sure it's a lot of nuance, you know what I'm saying? That's not going to probably come up in court to kind of even explain what her mental was at the time.
Tam Bam
I just be thinking about how God just be protecting me from stuff. I'm just so grateful because remember that party? I was at that time and the people I was with left with Diddy. We went, we all went to the after party, but then there was an after after party and I was invited to go to the after after party, but I said no. I declined. I declined. And I was like, damn, I still want to hang out. I hate that. I'm not a whore. That's what I remember feeling like. Dang, I wish I had that in me. But I don't. And now everybody's leaving me. Little do I know I could have been covered in baby oil.
AJ Holiday
I'm still like confused about the baby oil. Is it regular baby oil or is it infused with something else?
Tam Bam
Oh, I know, I don't know that part. But I did read that they would it once it the oil dried up. You would have to squirt back up and just be cleanly, completely shiny all the time.
AJ Holiday
I'm gonna tell you, and I probably shouldn't insert this with this conversation, but I do like that though. I like oiled up. I don't like what oiled up Sex. But yeah, it was said that Diddy liked to see her glistening, basically. So yeah, they used a lot of baby oil.
Tam Bam
I like the glisten too.
AJ Holiday
But you know, black people looking kind of ashy, especially men.
Tam Bam
Oh yeah.
AJ Holiday
And balls ashy like it just skin just look better shiny, you know.
Tam Bam
I agree. That was excessive though.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. So the US government, here's what they alleged. So this is the thing. What is charges says from at least 2008 through the present, Combs led a criminal enterprise that existed to facilitate his abuse and exploitation of women, to protect his reputation and to conceal his conduct. As part of that criminal enterprise, Combs among with other members and associates of this enterprise committed crimes including sex trafficking organizations, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice. Okay, so these are the things that Cassie could have possibly also be guilty of. Yeah, right. But she's the victim now, and she's testifying against Diddy and testifying to the things that he did to her and other people. I just feel like his defense. I mean, the defense. Right. I just feel like they have a better. His lawyers are like doing the damn thing. You know, I don't really think that the state is proven. The said RICO charge, the racketeering charge, they're not really proving it.
Tam Bam
Well, I don't think we've gotten that far. I think they're just trying to like paint him as. Yeah. Before they even get to that part, they're trying to, you know, make him very, very non credible, you know, just. And it. And it's working because everybody looking at him crazy and we have it. I want to hear the list of people who was at. I can't wait for that to come out. Because the select. Y' all quiet.
AJ Holiday
Oh, y' all cool.
Tam Bam
Quiet. It's an esoteric church mouse.
AJ Holiday
When they raided his house last year, when his boys was in there, they had a blueprint like printout of what his house looks like on the inside. And they went directly to the camera room. So y' all remember Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell? You know, Jeffrey Epstein allegedly hung himself in jail. Ghislaine Maxwell received like a 30 year sentence or something like that. I don't really believe she's actually doing that time. Because what the business that these people are actually in is blackmailing. Right. And it's alleged that the Kardashian about to say. Kardashians. The Kardashians are also in the same business. So imagine this is how you maintain power, right? You get people at these big elaborate parties and you get them in compromising situations and you get it on film. So they attacked the film room first. When the feds came to his house, they went directly there. Because I believe that the US government is probably trying to protect even bigger people that Bigotan Diddy, you know, if he was the facilitator of some of this activity in order to get, you know, dirt on people, so then he can use that as leverage to advance, you know, to get, you know, advance his. Whatever else he wants to do, like to make him untouchable, essentially. Because now you got lawyers. Because we know with sex trafficking and shit, it's judges that be going to prison. People in Law enforcement be going to prison. People who work for child protective services be going to prison. You know, so it's a real, like, ring, you know, it's a. It's big business. America, number one industry has always been human trafficking.
Tam Bam
We talk.
AJ Holiday
We black people. It started with slavery.
Tam Bam
And listen, selling is the oldest profession in the Bible. On earth.
AJ Holiday
On earth, period. And I. I just think, why can't I. First of all, whose business is that? But, I mean, cats. Yeah. Why can't sell coochie if I want to. It's only because they can't tax it that you can't.
Tam Bam
Well, why they can't tax it?
AJ Holiday
I think Utah and, like, Nevada, I think that might. Those might be the only places where you can legally. Or Arizona, legally.
Tam Bam
I don't want to sell mine.
AJ Holiday
Sell coochie, but I don't want to pay taxes on mine. If I do decide to tell it, though, like, imagine you got to do a damn W9 on your pussy. Like, this is mine. At least Trump is having it to where you got to pay for taxes on tips.
Tam Bam
Crazy.
AJ Holiday
Yeah.
Tam Bam
That's wild.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. I don't want. I don't think that's. That's not cool. But if men, like, if men got coochie envy, I believe, because if men could, like, really, like, sling d and get paid, well, I guess some of these guys, in this case, they were getting paid, right? But they wouldn't be as envious of how women. It's just like. It's a commodity. Coochie is a commodity.
Tam Bam
I know. To feel amazing. I know it got to feel so good. That's why y' all got to, like, y' all got to start treating your vaginas how it must feel. Because look at all this hoopla. Look at all this everything going on behind some Gucci, honestly.
AJ Holiday
Yeah, but what looks. What happened when you don't value it? Right. People just straight take advantage of it.
Tam Bam
Yeah.
AJ Holiday
You know what I'm saying? Like, oh, this, this. She goes. She go for everything, you know? So y' all want to be sexually free, sexually liberated.
Tam Bam
So beautiful. Cassie is a beautiful woman. She's beautiful young girl. There's no reason for. First of all, there's no reason for even the most unattractive, the most aesthetically unpleasing woman to let anybody pee in their mouth. Unless you're into that thing, you know, I'm not kink shaming. You know, I'm not. I'm not going to kink shame. But.
AJ Holiday
But that's a defense, right? So the Prosecutors are saying that Diddy was a sexual deviant and he was abusive, you know, to people, and he. He was forcing people and holding people captive and all this shit, right? But his. The defense is saying this was somebody's lifestyle. This was a couple's lifestyle. We pay people to play. That's the defense. And it's kind of looking like that, especially when you see the text messages from Cassie, you know, ready to freak off. I'm always, yeah, whenever you ready. You know what I'm saying? Even. Even where there's text messages where Diddy's like, are you feeling this today? You cool with this today? Or you want me to go. You want me to stop? Because I'm already putting in motion. And then there's other messages, like from her saying, I'll go to Dwayne Reed and get the baby oil.
Tam Bam
Like, yeah, but you don't know. She could have been texting, sending text, and crying at the same time.
AJ Holiday
I just don't see. And this is where we listen. We are women, and we know how vindictive, how manipulative, how treacherous some women could be, especially when they have an agenda. Like, you know, women are very cerebral. Like, men are simple supposedly, right? And they dick be controlling a lot of things, but women are very strategic, a lot of time with the things that they do. Right now, getting somebody at 19, I mean, we aren't the same people we were at 19. You could never get me to do that type. I still be trying to figure out the psychology, the holes I was in high school with how y' all was getting dreams around y' all at 16, 17 years. I'm confused about it. But we can't put shit past women. We can't. We can't.
Tam Bam
We can't put as much as we want. You know, I see posts where people, like, believe women. Y' all are sickening. You need to believe women. This person. You believe that this person isn't telling the truth. And this person. But women lie, too. Like, women are people, and people lie, you know, so you can't just trust someone that they're being honest solely based on their genitalia, you know, because they're born with a vagina. Now they're honest. No, that's not real. It's just not real life. Unfortunately, as much as I would want to believe every female victim, some of these bitches lying.
AJ Holiday
That's like the Blake Lively and the Justin Baldoni case that's been ongoing for the last couple months now. It started with Blake Lively saying how what's the guy. I just said his name. Valdoni. Justin Baldoni had sexually harassed her, basically on the set of his. A film. She was an actress in a film the whole time. Her husband, Ryan Reynolds, was literally trying to steal the film from Justin Baldoni. So they conspired. Put all this. Right now. They're about to call Taylor Swift. They trying to summons her to court right now to testify. Now she has already, like, because she was best friends with Blake Lively. But now they about to bring her to court because they all conspired, like, against Justin Baldoni. And it all started with Blake Lively just lying. Even a Washington Post ran with this lie, you know, so we just supposed to sit and believe all women. Sometimes there's a man behind the bullshit, or sometimes it's just women using what they got to get what they want.
Tam Bam
And sometimes believe they own lies.
AJ Holiday
That's the thing. You know, I seen a video where she was saying how she, you know, she would just steal. She would just take people. She was. She actually admitted to, like, taking over people's films. Like it was nothing. Like. Like it was just supposed to happen. Like, yeah, I would come on set and, you know, they think I would be there for one thing, and I'm there for this. What? Just these people, a lot of times, what is the word it's called, they're like, so. No affluenza, right. They're so rich, they have so much access and so much money that they just don't have a real sense of reality. Right. So they can't be responsible. Yeah.
Tam Bam
Like somebody got off for doing a crime.
AJ Holiday
Yeah, this guy, this young boy in Texas, right? And I don't. I don't remember what even happened with that case. I know he got off or he was on probation, and his mom, like, got him to Mexico. They didn't even want to do the probation. Like, that's just how much they think that they're above the law, you know? And my. The. My. My thing with. With Diddy and just. Just black men, period. Even when, like, we have a whole thing going on here in Charleston with these city councilmen, right? It's like black people get into position, and y' all don't want to knock all this shit over, right? And start anew. Y' all just want close proximity to whiteness. Y' all want to be able to do the shit that these white men do. The nasty things they have no business doing. That's what y' all want access to. So there's a Diddy. There's another Diddy waiting to do what Diddy did. Like, they are complicit with this shit that is.
Tam Bam
That sound like, you know, how we make up rhymes. There's another Diddy way to do their thing that Diddy did.
AJ Holiday
There's another diddy out there. Like, they. They just want their chance, their turn to be this evil, you know, Because I don't doubt that Diddy. It's just hard to have. It's not hard to have because I'm not an evil person. So no matter how much access and money I'll ever acquire, I can never be like these people. It's something just not human about them in the first place. They don't really even see themselves in other people. They think they're bigger than life. They think they're the gods. Right.
Tam Bam
You got to be a sociopath in a way to be able to do all that stuff and just not have no empathy and just be okay with, like, you beating on this little young girl all the time and hurting her. And you see you hurting her, but you just do it again. Like, you got to have, like a mental defect to be okay with that. And there's people out there that don't feel nothing. They can harm you and sleep peacefully at night. And that's scary that they walking amongst us.
AJ Holiday
Yeah.
Tam Bam
I can't. Like, the older I get, I can't even kill a bug without feeling empathy for it.
AJ Holiday
Yes.
Tam Bam
Like, my mama has like this thing in her house that catches flies and.
AJ Holiday
They get stuck to it or the sticky thing, and it was a fly.
Tam Bam
On, it stuck and it was like fighting, and I was like, oh, this is terrible. Let me get something and put it out as misery. So I went and bought some spray so I could just end it for him because he's. He's suffering. I can't even let a fly suffer. So I know I can't harm a person.
AJ Holiday
Yeah.
Tam Bam
And I don't even know is that mental illness that I'm thinking that deep?
AJ Holiday
No, absolutely not, man. Because you be. You start becoming like one with earth because everything got a part purpose, you know, that's a part of the reason why I don't eat meat. And I really be struggling with, like, trying to stop eating even seafood. Because first of all, some of this, some of the seafood just still not healthy for you either. You know what I'm saying? But I. I don't like harming things. I can't stand that they cutting down a lot of the oak trees and like this right now building stuff up and then what are animals gonna live at? Y' all gonna kill all the forest like what, y' all up the wetlands? Like we humans are real life parasites.
Tam Bam
I don't know. Because this tooth right here lets me believe I'm supposed to have meat.
AJ Holiday
No, we are herbivores. We have very flat tooth we got that's for protection in case we gotta bite somebody. But that shit is not that sharp. You are not a Tyrannosaurus rex. We have flat teeth like herbivores. We are not supposed to be just consuming all of this meat. I mean, depends. It depends on the human, right?
Tam Bam
Because this is for flats.
AJ Holiday
All flats. Shame. Yeah. Like, I don't, like, I, I can't. I can't harm a fly, for real. I really try my best. Whenever I. Whenever I kill somebody, it's like a reflex. I accidentally do it. You know what, it's a reflex when I actually kill something.
Tam Bam
Yeah.
AJ Holiday
You know, like I just around, oh. And hit it like, God damn, I didn't mean to do that. But I saw you at the corner of my eye, so it was a reflex. But I don't know, I feel like it's just like when black, when white people like kill black people do something to us. Real mean, you know, it's just because they're afraid of our potential. They're afraid that we might potentially bite them. That's why we kill stuff. You're just afraid that a spider might. Spiders don't want to fuck with you. They're not. They don't really want to bother you, you know. Now mosquitoes and gnats, they be trying to come for your eye. The very conscious of what. What they be doing. Yeah, so I'm killing their ass all day. But anyway, when we come back after this break, we want to just touch on the Tory Lanez and Meg thee stallion situation just a little. The first two months of 2025 have been quite a year.

AJ Holiday
The fuck up out of here. So y' all stay tuned. All right. And we're back. And you know, the Internet was set aflame for yet another situation.
Tam Bam
The Internet drained me this week.
AJ Holiday
Right? Ooh, yes.
Tam Bam
God almighty.
AJ Holiday
So, okay, so we talked last week about how Tory Lanez was assaulted in prison. He had some very life threatening stab wounds. You know, 14 times somebody stabbed him. And I, I saw one video that said the reason, the person said the reason why he did it was because Tory Lanez basically was staring at his wife too long on, on a meeting. Like a, you know, they had visitation. So I guess Tory Lanez was visiting somebody at the same time this man was visiting his wife. And allegedly Tory Lanez stared a little bit too long. The guy addressed it and then Tory Lanez was like, I'll fuck your wife type stuff. I don't know how true it is. It came from another Hispanic blogger online who said the guy was a nice guy, but who's serving life in prison.
Tam Bam
That nigga don't look nice at all.
AJ Holiday
He's spent life in prison and he has assaulted other people in prison. That is not a nice guy.
Tam Bam
They say he did, he did that.
AJ Holiday
All the things he did that.
Tam Bam
Yeah, I believe it. He look full up.
AJ Holiday
Hell no. He a whole problem.
Tam Bam
Yeah.
AJ Holiday
So it's unfortunate. So now, okay, now back when Tory Lanez was first going through, going through his court hearings and stuff like that, there was a lot of commentary online about how Kelsey, Meg Thee, Stallion's best friend, was actually the person who shot the gun. Right. And again, you know, Meg Thee Stallion wasn't directly shot. Right. It was. She had bullet fragments in her, in her feet, basically, like maybe ricocheting off of the concrete. But she was shot at. She's the only person in that situation who didn't have a gun. Right. So you got Tory Lanez, you got Kelsey, you got Meg Thee Stallion, and then you got the driver, the bodyguard. Those are the four. Now the driver, the bodyguard was Tory's driver and bodyguard. Okay. On that evening, what just Happened last week. You have an attorney who's representing Kelsey's driver slash bodyguard who was transporting her to and from the court hearings during the time that Tory Lanez was convicted. Right? And he's saying that he overheard her admitting to being the person that shot Meg Thee stallion or shot at or shot the gun, basically. Right? None of this shit is admissible in court. He was not there the night of the situation, so it's hearsay from him, Right, Suggesting that he overheard Kelsey admitting to being the shooter.
Tam Bam
But what I don't understand is why would Kelsey need immunity if she was a witness to her best friend being shot at?
AJ Holiday
I don't understand that part either. But she didn't have full immunity. She had use immunity. Because I actually looked that up a couple weeks ago. She had to use immunity, which she could still possibly face criminal charges if. If other evidence came up about something else. So it's not like she had full immunity. And she also got on the stand and just played the fifth to everything, right?
Tam Bam
So that, that. That's questionable. If me and you are out with some nigger, right, and some. Some pop off and the shoots a gun at me and it's a fragment in my foot. Why would AJ have immunity? It don't make sense. Why would AJ have immunity? That's the part that I don't get, you know, like, that's my friend, that's my home girl. Why does she need immunity in this situation? And that's what brings me some pause, like there's something in the water that ain't clean.
Chamberlain University
And.
AJ Holiday
Well, now he. He was charged with assault with the firearm, illegal possession of a firearm, and neglect to. And neglect discharge of a firearm. So he was charged. He got 10 years. Not even. Not even for actually like shooting at just you in California. You're not even a US Citizen, and you, you know, shooting a gun, right? So this is what he was charged with. I can't explain to you why she was given immunity at all. I can't explain it, right? But what I don't understand is that there is nothing, a lawyer, my mama, who I am going to always defend myself and my character. There's no way I'm gonna sit there and let a whole room of people lie on me. And this is. This is. Has this has actually happened to me in real life, you know what I'm saying? Like, I know how to state or the US government will create a criminal out of somebody because it almost happened to me, you know, and you are sitting there, you can't really defend yourself in that moment. Now this was some pre trial type shit, right? So it never made it anywhere because I didn't do anything, right. But I know how the system works. I understand it. But there would be no attorney, like if I were to ever get to trial or something like that. I would take 100 years telling my telling, telling the truth. I would if they gonna still give me the time, you know what I'm saying? And I feel like 10 years is excessive for this situation as is. But that dude got a. Got criminal history already. Tory Lanez had already had criminal history. So maybe they took all that stuff into account, but I would have taken the stand. In no world that we live in, most women are in prison for things that they did for or with a man, or even taking a charge for a man. I have yet to hear about a man going to prison for a woman for some shit they ain't do.
Tam Bam
Well, maybe this might be the first time, aj, I don't know.
AJ Holiday
For a bitch you barely know that you just was smashing her and her homegirl. It just doesn't make sense. And then you have the court recordings of him doing a collect call to Kelsey and they're having a whole conversation. He's the one apologizing, saying that he's sorry for this and he's sorry for that. And then he starts like asking her like, what's her hopes and dreams? Like, basically like, how can I fund anything you got going on? You know, that sounds like bribery to me for her to take the charge, for her to take the rap, for.
Tam Bam
Kelsey to do it.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. And then you got Meg Thee stallion who wasn't even trying to bring this shit to the Internet. She wasn't trying to get anybody in trouble initially.
Tam Bam
Yeah, I feel bad for her because people are, you know, demonizing her and she was ultimately the victim. We don't know.
AJ Holiday
That's what I'm saying. She's the only person that didn't have a. Like, she's the only person that we could definitively say did not have a.
Tam Bam
Weapon, she didn't shoot at her own foot.
AJ Holiday
So why is she being dragged?
Tam Bam
Because you're trying to say that she. She sent this man who had a bright future to prison for something that was. It didn't deserve the.
AJ Holiday
She didn't send him. The state did. Yeah, they picked it up.
Tam Bam
She didn't do that. But then she also kind of was dishonest about the relationship because it wouldn't paint her in the most positive light. And I think that made People like.
AJ Holiday
Distrust her because she didn't tell the truth about smashing him. So. So Tory Lanez is smashing Kelsey and Megan Thee stallion basically backdoored her best friend. So at this point, I don't with either one of y' all. So why am I. Why would I lie or tell the truth on either one of y' all? You know what I'm saying? Like, I'm not with Kelsey. Or maybe, I mean, I guess if that was her best friend, at some point, she probably like Corey Tory Lanez. I' ma lie on him. So Kelsey, though I still don't with her could get off.
Tam Bam
Yeah.
AJ Holiday
She did that to me. But. But. But she was mad.
Tam Bam
Yeah.
AJ Holiday
Right.
Tam Bam
My best friend in jail, even though we don't with each other, I did do her dirty my back on her. I'm not sending her to jail. Is you. If it's between you and her, it's you.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. And she's had. She since got married and has a baby now. She was pregnant during. During the hearings.
Tam Bam
Yeah. I would have did that if that was the case. I would have chose my best friend.
AJ Holiday
Yeah. So, I mean, really, Meg Thee stallion. I feel I. I just said that.
Tam Bam
Because I don't want to send nobody to jail who ain't did nothing. But I, you know, I don't think. I think this.
AJ Holiday
I would just play the fifth, just like Kelsey did.
Tam Bam
I was something bigger than it was supposed to ever be.
AJ Holiday
Yeah.
Tam Bam
Having a good time. Find out that everybody and got mad.
AJ Holiday
Look, when it comes to the police and like that, y' all gonna always have to do y' all job when y' all dealing with aj I'm not helping y' all do do your job. Okay. Because everybody shut the up. Guess what? They don't have a case.
Tam Bam
Right.
AJ Holiday
If everybody shuts the up, there's no case. But in this case, Meg the stallion didn't call the police. None of the people on site call the police. It was a whole third party that called the police. Right. So now y' all got witnesses.
Tam Bam
Helicopters flying over. It was all kind of going on.
AJ Holiday
You know what I'm saying?
Tam Bam
Like.
AJ Holiday
Did.
Tam Bam
He flew over in his helicopter about to land on the top of a building behind a. He had helicopters flying.
AJ Holiday
So now people like speculating like that Jay Z had him attacked in jail because he's about to come out like, y' all listen, the was doubling down on the. He did. Right. I still. I believe Tory Lanez did it. I can't explain why the girl had immunity. I don't know. And again I'm not. I don't want to condemn him, but he did get sentenced. Okay, so somebody condemned him. But he did a video chopping up a horse leg. Who eats horse? Who. He was butchering a horse with blood. And who does that?
Tam Bam
He chopped up a real horse.
AJ Holiday
Yes. One of his music videos right before his ass went to jail, there was a scene where he was a butcher and he's rapping. He got the big, big butcher's knife and all that. And he's cutting up a horse's leg on a table. That is a sociopath. That is abusing somebody who did something to somebody and now they're planting your face, showing you that they could possibly get away with it.
Tam Bam
Not nice.
AJ Holiday
He was taunting her. She said it, you know, So I just. I don't know who to believe in that situation again. Tory Lanez can sound like every singer and every fucking rapper out there. Who is this nigga? And you're Canadian. Where's your accent? You're Caribbean. Canadian, whatever. Like, how are you sounding like Brett Fayez on some shit.
Tam Bam
Brent.
AJ Holiday
Like, how are you? How do you change your voice like that? Like, how do you trust these actors?
Tam Bam
He is talented.
AJ Holiday
That's what I'm saying. These be acting like they're normal. And here's the thing, and I know I've said this before, we be acting like celebrities are exempt from being serial killers, abusers just because they're a celebrity.
Tam Bam
Like, no, that's not true. They'd probably be the most.
AJ Holiday
Exactly.
Tam Bam
They have that abundance because they have access.
AJ Holiday
Exactly. It's. It's the celebrities and truck drivers. That is my theory. Celebrities and 18 wheeler truck drivers. They mean it's so many couples that I got arrested. Husband and wife around here, just picking up one person, drop their body off in another state. You see what I'm saying? Like, they have access. Celebrities have access to do whatever the fuck they want to do and nobody's going to suspect them of it.
Tam Bam
Me and my sister was right down the street and I saw this lady walking with a child. I was like, oh, maybe we should offer. Offer them a ride. She was like, no. Then we kept going and I saw another. It was a man, a woman and a child. And I was like, oh, maybe we should offer them a ride. She's like, what makes you think these people gonna want to get in a car with you? I was like, me? Harmless? She said, that's exactly what a serial killer would say. Me, I'm harmless.
AJ Holiday
But I. I be picking people up.
Tam Bam
And people like When I see it's hot.
AJ Holiday
Especially old people. And then they, like, I'm a magnet. They just know to ask me.
Tam Bam
I look, I. I'll stop. But the last time I stopped, I seen this old lady walking down Garners Ferry Road with heavy bags from the store. And I like, oh, no, it's too hot. Let me. And she had on clothes that didn't seem right for the time of year. I know she's sweating up a storm in that outfit with that long skirt on. So I stopped and I said, ma' am, would you like me to give you a ride wherever you're going? She said, did I fucking ask you?
AJ Holiday
Ooh, ooh.
Tam Bam
No, you did not. Have a good day.
AJ Holiday
Sweaty little musty, mean ass.
Tam Bam
That's why you walking down with your mean ass, right?
AJ Holiday
She probably been mean her whole fucking life too. Yeah. Oh, you know, one thing before we wrap it up, y' all, this is the weirdest thing that happened to me yesterday. So maybe like, I don't know, like, 12 o' clock. It might have been a little early than that. It might have been like maybe 11, 10 o' clock in the morning. Knock on my door. I answer the door. It's a little white boy, right? Maybe, like, he may be about nine, eight, nine years old. And he has this. Knitted something he done knitted. He was like, are you interested in buying some nits? And he was like, mumbling. And I'm like, huh? What are you saying? Are you interested in buying some knits? And it wasn't like a shape of anything. It was like bunch of yarn thrown together. And I said, you made that? And he said, yeah. So I said, hold on. So I went, and luckily I had, like, some cash, So I got $10 out my purse, two fives, and I took it back to the door and gave it to him. He was like, here? I was like, no, I'm good. I don't want him. You just keep. Keep the money. I said, where your parents at? Where you live at? What apartment you live in? And he was like, I live over there. I said, okay, no, just keep it. But I just. I had other questions that I just didn't ask because what? He. We watched him run off from the window. He didn't go to anybody else's house. I live on the third floor. What made you choose my building and my door? I didn't hear him knock on, because when people knock on my neighbor's door across from me, I could hear it. I only heard a knock at my door. I didn't hear enough prior to being knocked on my door.
Tam Bam
The sucker energy coming out of you.
Rocket Mortgage
That'S what I'm about.
AJ Holiday
That's exactly where I'm getting at. I swear to God. It's like, is he just sitting home and something going his mind says, there's a God that lives at 1-8-308. Go knock on that door.
Tam Bam
Listen, my mama be getting a letter, a handwritten letter asking for five and ten dollars in her mailbox. She don't know who leave it there, but it go to like, it's a house. They put their address. Could you give me. It looks like a child's handwriting, honestly, but it could be some. And my mama. My mama go put the money in their mailbox.
AJ Holiday
Really?
Tam Bam
She does.
AJ Holiday
That's what I'm saying. It's like maybe something told him to come to my unit. So now, like, I'm looking for him because I got additional questions now. But when I closed my door, I was like, I'm not bringing nothing in my house from somebody from. Because I was like, it's Sunday. This might be a little demon at my goddamn door.
Tam Bam
Home.
AJ Holiday
No, actually BJ left out the house and like, ran looking for him. It's like he dissipated. He couldn't find him because, like, I had additional questions after I let him go and we watched him, like, run off. Like, he. He probably didn't need to go to nobody else house. I gave him $10. He's like, that's enough for today, right? So he like, walked to the pool looking for him. He didn't see him. So I'm like, man, I don't know. But I'm looking for this little boy because I have questions. Where are your parents? Why didn't you go to anybody else's house? Why did you choose my house to come to? What was that about? Who told you to come here?
Tam Bam
Right?
AJ Holiday
But it was probably God, you know, because God in here, you don't know.
Tam Bam
You could have provided that child with a meal or whatever it was. You know?
AJ Holiday
That's what I'm saying. Like, something probably told him to come to my house because I got it for you, you know, if I got it, you can have it, and that's for anybody. And luckily I had it because I usually don't be having cash. So I don't know. That was my lottery money. Usually that's when I get cash, I get like $40 because I'm gonna go play the lottery. I' ma go play today. I feel lucky. My right hand kept itching Y' all go play the lottery today. Well, by the time y' all get this, it won't be today. But anyway, anyway, y' all do all the God things. Don't be mean to people. Don't be abusive to people. Man, always.
Tam Bam
Don't let nobody pee in your mouth. I don't care.

We Talk Back – Episode: Icons and Accountability Release Date: May 22, 2025
Hosts: Tam Bam & AJ Holiday
Produced by: The Black Effect and iHeartPodcasts
Overview
In the "Icons and Accountability" episode of the We Talk Back podcast, hosts Tam Bam and AJ Holiday delve deep into the complexities surrounding celebrity accountability, focusing primarily on the high-profile legal cases involving Sean "Diddy" Combs. Through candid conversations, personal anecdotes, and sharp analysis, Tam Bam and AJ navigate the murky waters of abuse allegations, societal perceptions, and the broader implications for the black community.
Discussion on Diddy's Legal Troubles
The episode centers around the ongoing legal saga of Sean "Diddy" Combs, particularly his custody battle with Halle Bailey. Tam Bam and AJ Holiday dissect the allegations against Diddy, exploring the nuances of the case and its impact on both individuals involved.
Custody and Abuse Allegations:
AJ Holiday discusses Halle Bailey's request for sole legal custody of her son, Halo, citing alleged physical and emotional abuse by Diddy. She states, "She's the person that got trafficked. Her and then one other Jane Doe are the sex people who were sex trafficked essentially because Diddy was paying men to have sex with her. That's weird, is it not?" ([20:22])
Tam Bam adds to the conversation by emphasizing the severity of the allegations and their implications: "Kudos to this black woman because why?" ([15:00])
Court Proceedings and Testimonies:
The hosts analyze the court dynamics, questioning how Halle Bailey can be a key witness in a criminal trial after a civil lawsuit was settled. AJ Holiday remarks, "How can the federal government then still use her as a key witness in a criminal trial?" ([28:54])
They also touch upon the psychological aspects of abuse, with Tam Bam suggesting that Cassie (Halle Bailey) might have been conditioned over time, potentially compromising her ability to set boundaries: "She was conditioned." ([32:33])
Comparisons to Other Celebrity Cases
Tam Bam and AJ Holiday draw parallels between Diddy's case and other high-profile legal battles involving celebrities like Tory Lanez and Meg Thee Stallion.
Tory Lanez Incident:
AJ Holiday recounts the assault Tory Lanez faced in prison, questioning the credibility of witnesses and the motivations behind the attacks: "But I just don't see... Tory Lanez can sound like every singer and every fucking rapper out there." ([63:23])
Meg Thee Stallion's Shooting Incident:
The discussion shifts to the incident involving Meg Thee Stallion, where she was shot but emerged unharmed. The hosts debate the legitimacy of the claims surrounding Kelsey, Meg's best friend, and her alleged involvement:
"Meg Thee Stallion who wasn't even trying to bring this shit to the Internet. She wasn't trying to get anybody in trouble initially." ([70:29])
Tam Bam expresses empathy for Meg while questioning the motives behind the legal actions taken against her: "I feel bad for her because people are, you know, demonizing her and she was ultimately the victim." ([70:22])
Societal Observations on Abuse and Accountability
The hosts extend their discussion to broader societal issues, addressing themes of power abuse, manipulation, and the challenges of holding influential figures accountable.
Power Dynamics and Manipulation:
Tam Bam criticizes the abuse of power by celebrities, stating, "They have that abundance because they have access." ([74:59]) AJ Holiday echoes this sentiment, highlighting the manipulation within high-profile relationships: "But this is. Has this has actually happened to me in real life, you know what I'm saying?" ([43:22])
Gender Dynamics and Trust:
The conversation touches upon the complexities of gender trust, with AJ Holiday expressing skepticism towards fully believing every victim without scrutiny: "But women lie, too. Like women are people, and people lie." ([52:59])
Tam Bam reinforces the importance of critical thinking and not blindly trusting narratives: "But women lie, too. Like women are people, and people lie, you know, so you can't just trust someone that they're being honest solely based on their genitalia, you know, because they're born with a vagina." ([52:59])
Personal Anecdotes and Experiences
Throughout the episode, Tam Bam and AJ Holiday share personal stories that underline their perspectives on the discussed topics.
Experiences with Men and Trust Issues:
AJ Holiday recounts a distressing incident at a Nike Outlet where she was harassed by a man, highlighting the emotional toll it took on her: "What? He was like, I'm leaving... I felt so depleted, my energy was so low." ([04:52])
Tam Bam shares her encounter with a man following her, emphasizing the paranoia and fear such experiences instill: "I see posts where people, like, believe women. Y' all are sickening." ([52:18])
Empathy and Non-Violence:
The hosts express their innate empathy towards all living beings, discussing their aversion to causing harm: Tam Bam states, "I can't harm a person." ([57:32])
AJ Holiday adds, "I can't even let a fly suffer. So I know I can't harm a person." ([57:28])
Conclusion
In "Icons and Accountability," Tam Bam and AJ Holiday offer a compelling examination of the intersection between celebrity influence and personal accountability. Through their honest and unfiltered discussions, they shed light on the multifaceted nature of abuse allegations, the challenges of navigating public perceptions, and the broader societal implications for the black community.
