I did finish Nemesis. I am also in Deuteronomy.
[00:02:20] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:02:21] Speaker B: Moses was like. Like a boy. Yeah.
[00:02:24] Speaker A: He was one of them ones.
[00:02:25] Speaker B: He was one of them ones.
[00:02:26] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:02:27] Speaker B: Now I kind of understand because I've been one of those people where I feel like, why y' all naming y'
[00:02:31] Speaker A: all kids after all these biblical people?
[00:02:34] Speaker B: Dead people.
[00:02:35] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:02:35] Speaker B: Like, you know, but I get it now. And what is it's about. It's more so for me now that, like, reading my Bible, it's more so about the people and what they represent and what they did and stuff. So, yeah, I took that wig off.
[00:02:51] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, you was over that.
[00:02:53] Speaker B: Cause I can't do too much of a lot of stuff. Like, I don't like a lot of maintenance on things. So I had to take that wig off. But I went to the movies with my daddy. We went to go see the Michael movies.
[00:03:09] Speaker A: Oh, really?
[00:03:10] Speaker B: Yeah, I wanna talk about that. But I took him, we went on a little daddy daughter date, and he picked me up and I got in the car and he gonna say, what's up with all that hair and my daddy ball? So I said, what's up with yours?
Cause why would you ask me what's up with my hair?
[00:03:25] Speaker A: Like, see, that's the problem right there. It's like, because you like.
Okay, I'm be honest. You like a real nigga, right?
But you a girl, so it be like, niggas don't. He didn't know, like, who to engage at certain points. You know what I'm saying?
[00:03:44] Speaker B: He'll know what I'm gonna say.
[00:03:45] Speaker A: Oh, yeah.
[00:03:46] Speaker B: Cause why would you ask me that?
So shout out to my mama. My mama. I went to her house yesterday and she said, you need to stop getting high.
She said, why would you think it was a great idea to blow the smoke in your hair, bro?
[00:04:07] Speaker A: I mean, that's probably why you got rid of the hair. Low key.
[00:04:09] Speaker B: Cause it didn't help me with shit. Yeah.
[00:04:11] Speaker A: It was just extra we.
[00:04:13] Speaker B: Oh, I filled my tank up today, so I guess I can't eat.
Yeah, I filled my tank up and I'm not. I guess I'm not eating today.
[00:04:23] Speaker A: Did you see the meme with the nigga?
He was pinching the gas out of his gas cap, trying to put it in his.
[00:04:30] Speaker B: I need all the crumbs.
[00:04:31] Speaker A: Yeah. He's like, bro, this gas is crazy, bro.
[00:04:35] Speaker B: That is such like. Obviously that's an exaggeration, right? But it's a reflection of some broke shit, because it make you think of like, you know when you gotta open up the lotion and you gotta keep hitting it? Or I take you back. I take you back. I don't know how poor y' all was, man.
[00:04:51] Speaker A: Listen.
[00:04:52] Speaker B: But my daddy had cut the top of the toothpaste to split it open and dig the.
[00:04:57] Speaker A: Yeah, Scrape the rest out that toothpaste.
[00:04:58] Speaker B: Scrape the rest out the.
[00:04:59] Speaker A: At the top. Yeah. Yeah.
[00:05:01] Speaker B: What's the poorest thing? It's your poorest experience.
[00:05:05] Speaker A: Poorest experience would probably be fruit. Ooh. Ooh.
So my mom is prideful. She used to have this thing. Cause I would ask for food straight up. Like, if it was bad, I ask for some food. I'm not finna go hungry even, like, to this day. You know how I get down. So back in the. You know, it was light. It was light. So I go ask for some food. And my mom would be mad, like, don't be going over there. Ask. Don't telling your grandma, we need groceries. And I'm. We do.
We need groceries in this motherfucker? We do. You know what I'm saying? It ain't like. I mean, we had, like. It might be a pack of noodles, and I might bust that down. I think the poorest thing I've ever done is combine two struggle meals. You ever did that?
[00:05:50] Speaker B: Let's unpack this.
[00:05:52] Speaker A: So I had some noodles, but I didn't have nothing else, so. But we had to split it with me and the homie. He had pork and beans and wieners.
So, you know, like, you used to make that.
[00:06:05] Speaker B: That was my daddy go to right there.
[00:06:07] Speaker A: That was some hood shit. We used to do that. But it's one pot.
You whip that and bust it down. So what we did was we. It was like, hey, look, I got the noodle. Cause I had starch. He had some protein. So we, you know, we spread it. Both of them together. I think that was some real poor shit.
[00:06:22] Speaker B: Cause I. I had a sandwich and some noodles.
[00:06:25] Speaker A: You put the noodles in the sandwich?
[00:06:27] Speaker B: Oh, y' all mixed it up.
[00:06:28] Speaker A: That's what I'm telling you. Yeah, we used to mix the shit up.
[00:06:31] Speaker B: I don't know if that's some poor shit.
[00:06:33] Speaker A: It was. That's stupid.
[00:06:35] Speaker B: Those meals don't even.
[00:06:36] Speaker A: Like we had to do.
[00:06:38] Speaker B: Is that a spread?
[00:06:39] Speaker A: Yes, because he had. He might have two end pieces of bread. It wasn't even the good slit. It was two end pieces. You know how you niggas eat from the middle of the bread? So he had the bread, but he had nothing else. And I had the noodles.
So we would like.
Let's spread.
[00:06:55] Speaker B: Yeah. Now, when you say you broke, you, like, used to break the noodles down. What that mean?
[00:06:59] Speaker A: So before you open the bag, you crunch them all down so it's all just loose noodles in the thing.
And then you boil them, and then you sprinkle. You put that in the pork and beans and wieners for the extra. So you get full. Cause that's what you gonna eat for the day.
[00:07:12] Speaker B: Okay. That's not even attractive.
And to this day, I don't have a problem. I ate some noodles this morning, so I don't have no problem with that. But I don't like y' all concoction. I don't like y' all concoction.
[00:07:25] Speaker A: What is that?
[00:07:27] Speaker B: Okay, but before I tell you the poorest thing that I experienced, pick a struggle meal. Pork and beans and weenies or Hamburger Helper.
[00:07:36] Speaker A: That was good. Or that I would prefer.
[00:07:39] Speaker B: Pick one. What's the best Hamburger Helper? Hamburger. I want some. I low key, want some Hamburger Helper. Like, right now.
[00:07:45] Speaker A: Facts. I mean, I can't eat the meat no more. But yeah, like, pause, pause.
[00:07:53] Speaker B: God damn.
[00:07:54] Speaker A: But yes. I used to really fuck with some Hamburger Helper. That used to be my shit.
[00:07:58] Speaker B: You gotta get on TikTok and see how the.
It's this new trend where they saying old bitches and young bitches. But I also say you gotta see how the young bitches is doing. A Hamburger Helper.
[00:08:09] Speaker A: How they doing it?
[00:08:10] Speaker B: I mean, like a gourmet, like, Chef Ramsay type meal.
[00:08:15] Speaker A: Like, that's all plating, though. They'll take some ghetto shit.
[00:08:18] Speaker B: No, it's ingredients.
[00:08:19] Speaker A: Oh, they doing ingredients?
[00:08:20] Speaker B: Yeah. Like, heavy whipping cream. Like, your mama ain't never used heavy whipping cream. Huh? My daddy ain't never used heavy whipping cream?
[00:08:29] Speaker A: Hell, no.
[00:08:29] Speaker B: It was water.
[00:08:30] Speaker A: These chicks going to Trader Joe's and shit, huh?
[00:08:33] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:08:33] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:08:34] Speaker B: But look, the poor. Some poor shit. The poorest thing. And I need to talk to my daddy about this. Now that I'm an adult, he would bring this big ass block of soap home.
[00:08:42] Speaker A: Yep, I remember those.
[00:08:44] Speaker B: And my cousin told me that that's what you clean clothes with, not your body.
[00:08:49] Speaker A: Yeah.
So there's this chemical. Okay. I want you to look up this chemical. It's called borax.
[00:08:56] Speaker B: I was bathing with borax.
Hell nah.
I. I call Reggie right now.
[00:09:01] Speaker A: You know what that is?
[00:09:02] Speaker B: Yes, that's the Killrettes.
[00:09:06] Speaker A: Ish.
[00:09:07] Speaker B: What is it?
[00:09:07] Speaker A: I mean, yeah, they was putting that shit in everything. At one point, they was putting in noodles really? Oh, yeah. It was borax in the noodles for sure. Yeah, you can look that shit up. It was borax in the noodles. It was like this chemical that they used to do. They used to put it in, like, cleaning solutions and all kinds. It was fucked up what they did.
[00:09:28] Speaker B: Okay, so before I get into the Michael Jackson movie, how was your week?
[00:09:32] Speaker A: Oh, my week has been amazing. I've been filming and doing different things.
There's a movie that's coming out.
Actually, I can't even make that up. There's a movie that is coming out and they've been shooting and I've been seeing people from the city on the set and it's been dope to see that.
And the reason I'm bringing this up is because I don't know if you remember, but there was this thing that went out saying all the productions are leaving la.
And then I think there was a bill passed to bring more production back to the city of la. Cause we know a lot of people who work in industry whatnot, and the movie industry leaving a certain market devastates takes a lot of jobs away from people. So I'm really happy that these productions are shooting in LA again, because we lost a lot of productions to Atlanta. People going to New Jersey and then people going to London to shoot movies and stuff like that. So let's bring some more production back to la. Shout out to everybody that's been involved in that. That was dope. The other thing that was dope was I got to.
I got to witness a bunch of stuff. And nothing pleases me more than New York Knick fans thinking that they got action and they don't like it's playoffs. Yeah, it's basketball shit.
[00:10:46] Speaker B: Oh, that's why Fab and all them was dressed up like that.
[00:10:48] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:10:49] Speaker B: I was like, why they Knicks down?
[00:10:50] Speaker A: Yeah, they think they like. Oh, yeah. And it's just like. It'd be so interesting. It's like, bro, y' all not gonna win.
[00:10:57] Speaker B: What? That was us for like 10 years.
[00:10:59] Speaker A: I can see that.
[00:11:00] Speaker B: That was a. Well, not me. But that was the city.
[00:11:02] Speaker A: That was the city. Yeah. But it really pleases me to see them like that because they don't have. They just be like,
[00:11:12] Speaker B: ok, how far did they get?
[00:11:13] Speaker A: I mean, it's still going on, so to speak. But I didn't. We.
[00:11:17] Speaker B: Oh, they not out the playoffs.
[00:11:19] Speaker A: They just lost, I'm assuming. I think it's game. Let me see. Knicks. I'll tell you exactly what game it is.
So the Knicks are playing Right now as we speak.
So they're not out yet, but they're playing the Cleveland Cavaliers. And it's tied up right now as we're talking.
[00:11:36] Speaker B: The score is tied or the series.
[00:11:38] Speaker A: The series is tied. And so I'm just saying it, please. The Knicks are not gonna win a championship. Damn, that sound like some hater shit.
[00:11:45] Speaker B: Cause the Lakers not either.
[00:11:51] Speaker A: Like, you know, facts. And I'll be like, yes, fucking Kai Cash, nigga.
[00:11:56] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying?
[00:11:58] Speaker A: Bitch ass niggas.
But anyway. Cause niggas love to talk shit when we go through our shit. So I love to see.
[00:12:05] Speaker B: Hey, but that one year, we did too much. That one year. What when I think, was it the Yankees versus the.
[00:12:15] Speaker A: Oh, the Dodgers.
[00:12:16] Speaker B: The Dodgers.
[00:12:16] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, we did a lot.
[00:12:17] Speaker B: And we was dropping like we was on a timeline with the.
With the big buildings getting stumped on and shit.
[00:12:23] Speaker A: Yeah, we did a lot.
[00:12:25] Speaker B: The New York skyline all getting fucked up.
[00:12:28] Speaker A: We did a lot. Even when we played Toronto, we did a lot.
[00:12:31] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, it was a lot. We overdo it. We overdo it.
[00:12:34] Speaker A: But yeah, that's it.
Everything else is business as usual.
[00:12:39] Speaker B: Well, so I did like I said. I went to go see the Michael Jackson movie.
Did you go see it?
I don't want to spoil it for you.
[00:12:46] Speaker A: No, yeah, I saw it.
[00:12:47] Speaker B: Okay. You saw it overall, 10 out of 10. Yeah, 10 out of 10. My biggest takeaway was Michael Jackson deserved
[00:12:54] Speaker A: better than what he got.
Oh, okay.
[00:12:58] Speaker B: From the public.
[00:12:59] Speaker A: From the public. Got it.
[00:13:00] Speaker B: Yeah. Because that's what I was explaining to my dad.
Michael Jackson died in 2007. Yeah, I was a kid, so my introduction to Michael Jackson was him being a white man. Really a weirdo.
[00:13:17] Speaker A: Damn.
[00:13:18] Speaker B: What year?
You barely got much of him too. You was born in the 80s.
[00:13:23] Speaker A: Well. Oh, I get what you. I thought you meant like he was being presented to you as a white man as opposed to, like how you he was looked.
[00:13:29] Speaker B: Yeah, a black man, a Oreo, you know, they bleach their skin, they, you know, get their nose done.
[00:13:35] Speaker A: I think I caught him still a generation before, but I think I caught him like, I still looked him as like a black man.
[00:13:40] Speaker B: Well, I was counting the years we 10 years apart. And in 83, he was still. You was a kid. You was in your mama womb. So 10 years later is 93 when I was born. And we didn't even get that far in the movie. Yeah, so we.
What we remember our last memories of him is the wigs, the white man, the nose hanging, the kid over the balcony when I'm watching the movie. This is greatness.
Like, we didn't get that. Us as. I mean, well, whatever. I don't know who the fuck you saw, but me, I didn't get that. So I'm used to seeing him as what they put. The negativity that they portrayed that they put on us, that they put in the media. They never mentioned to us that he had a skin condition. They made it seem like he was bleaching his skin. And I even asked my daddy, he said when he remembers the media saying that, he said it was never about no skin condition. He was like. He do not remember that being a thing. They made us think that it was that he was mentally fucked up. That's what they told us. That's what they portrayed in the media. This great person that we got on this biopic made me. I don't know if I was more mad that I didn't experience his greatness or if I was more mad that it was nobody in my family to teach me about his greatness.
[00:14:49] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:14:49] Speaker B: If that makes sense. So like, even, like, down to the MTV thing, I didn't know that he was one of the first black artists to be played on mtv. That's not talked about. That's not talked about. That's some shit that. And I was talking to my friends, and they was like, you know, kind of saying the same thing. I mentioned that to my dad. He's. That I didn't. They didn't highlight that or like, you know, like, make that a thing. And I thought the acting was so fucking good.
Down to the extras in the crowd at the concert, the acting was so good. I remember hearing that people would fall out over him and they were so crazy over him and stuff like that.
So either I was too close up on the screen or I was high as shit. But I felt like I was watching Michael Jackson at Rolling Loud. Like, that's how. You know, how when you go. Like, when you watch, like, the festivals live and stuff like that, and you get to see the crowd, you get to see what was going on. That's how good that damn production was. But like I said, I was also close on, you know, up on the screen, so. And I was. I was high. But it was. It was such a good watch. Like, it was. But that's why I say I feel like he deserved more. Because me watching that, like, I had to take myself out of the mindset that I was watching a movie and I had to put myself in a mindset that Since I didn't get to experience him and his greatness from the 80s, I wasn't. I wasn't here in the 80s. I wasn't here in the 70s. I have never seen in person seeing Jackson 5 perform. I have never witnessed that. I have never seen no damn Been in person for a concert. Why? Because I didn't even exist then, you know, so. And also, I never been to a Michael Jackson concert. And based on, like, you know, like his prime and where things were when I was even able to be old enough to give a fuck about music, I would have never been to a Michael Jackson concert anyway. You get what I'm saying? Because he was already.
He only lived a couple more. I mean, he died in 2007.
[00:16:38] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:16:38] Speaker B: Like, I was a kid, but I thought that it was so good. I thought the production was amazing. The way they shot it down to the makeup, like, all the effects and everything they did.
Even, like, I felt honored that I can see behind the scenes of Thriller.
[00:16:56] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:16:56] Speaker B: You get what I'm saying? So it's like as a millennial, I was not old enough to experience him in his prime, you know? Yes, I seen Usher. I remember when Chris Brown first album came out and all that type of stuff. And I'm not even trying to do a comparison, but just an example of the people who careers I actually witnessed versus me coming into the tail end of something. Imagine.
Imagine a kid thinks that the Rock is just the movie, you know what I'm saying? Like, versus how we know of him from wrestling and, you know, things like that. Or if you think about, there's a kid who only knows Ludacris of the movies versus what we know of him from the music, you know, so my experience with watching the film and my experience with actually, like, knowing his music and him being here is two different things. But now I'm able to, like, you know, like, combine those things. And then also, I don't know if. I mean, yeah, I was watching that movie and I couldn't believe that. Like, it kind of blew my mind that two people. Because I'm watching it with my dad. It blew my mind that two people can share an experience.
Okay. It blew my mind that two people could witness a person's life but have two separate experiences of it. So my. I'm witnessing his life watching the movie. Right. But my daddy actually lived through this, you know what I'm saying? So the other thing that I loved was all the black actors that was on there that are legendary acts. Ania Long, Lorenz Tate.
And I thought that they did so good with the characters that I didn't see Love Jones when I saw them on stage. I didn't see Boyz n the Hood. I didn't see Tate, you know, what's his team? Councilman Tate. I didn't see Councilman Tate. When I'm watching it. I. I saw the actual actors and that daddy need an Oscar.
[00:18:55] Speaker A: Yeah, he killed.
[00:18:56] Speaker B: He had it down to the mannerisms, the everything, the face expressions, you know, like, everything was just. It was so fucking good. I thought that was the daddy.
[00:19:04] Speaker A: I thought that was Joe Jackson for sure.
[00:19:06] Speaker B: It actually felt like I was with the Jacksons. Like, it felt like I was a part of that. And I feel like that's what a biopic is supposed to make you do.
This might be the first biopic that I ever felt like. No, no, that's not the first one. Because the Notorious, I did think that was.
That was. He just looked too much like the nigga with the glasses. And yeah, he did favor Biggie a lot, but this was the first time, like a biopic was just like a 10 out of 10 for me to where it's like. Like I said, it's not.
It's not just that I watched a movie. It felt like I shared the experience with.
With the family.
[00:19:45] Speaker A: Yeah, I fuck with it on the same level. You had a lot of good points.
What I did love about it was I felt like I got a front row seat to the whole back end of the story.
Not we know. I'm familiar with his origin story. I've seen previous depictions of his origin story growing up, the kids, the abuse.
[00:20:03] Speaker B: But were you there?
[00:20:04] Speaker A: No.
[00:20:06] Speaker B: Like, you know how you witnessing lotto, baby, being like, you're not there. You get what I'm saying? But it's like, you know it because somebody told you or somebody showed you something we wasn't living. To actually experience the music and turn the radio on and hear him drop a brand new song.
[00:20:23] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:20:23] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying?
[00:20:24] Speaker A: So obviously it's not that time, but I'm getting there, but it's not that time period. But I did witness certain things that I remember being a kid seeing for myself. I remember seeing. I remember. I forgot it was two times where I saw Michael Jackson live.
Not in person, just on the tv.
One is, I was like a live concert, and I don't remember how they was doing it, but they were broadcast. I don't remember his super bowl performance like that, but I remember a live concert happening on tv. And I remember people fainting and passing out. I remember that. Seeing that verbatim. I mean, with my own eyes. The other thing I remember.
[00:20:58] Speaker B: How old were you?
[00:20:59] Speaker A: I have no idea.
[00:21:00] Speaker B: How did you think you were?
[00:21:01] Speaker A: Probably. Shit, probably like seven or something. Like ten.
[00:21:06] Speaker B: So it don't really count.
[00:21:08] Speaker A: Ten. Probably. I think I was. And I do remember around a similar time frame. This was crazy. And this. They don't even. And this is not in the biopic because it happens later. But I literally. I literally remember Michael Jackson then promoting Michael Jackson, Magic Johnson debuting something on television. It was the. I believe it was the first music video to ever be premiered on live television. Across the whole world at the same time. It was on Fox 11 and it was Remember the Time video.
And I remember we were all huddled around the TV with my Aunt Sherry. And we was literally watching that happen. And then we saw the video. It was like him like, you know, all Michael Jackson's videos be like 8 to 15 minutes long or whatnot. And the Remember the Time video debuted on national television and. And it was so crazy. Cause he spun. He was like the first artist to have special effects in a music video throughout his career. But then you saw Magic Johnson in the video you saw. It was like celebrity packed in that video. I remember being there as a kid, watching that shit happen on tv. Obviously that didn't happen in the movie. Cause it was later.
[00:22:19] Speaker B: Well, it was 92. I wasn't even thought of. You see how I don't have that experience?
[00:22:23] Speaker A: Yeah, that was 92.
[00:22:25] Speaker B: And.
[00:22:26] Speaker A: And so I was.
[00:22:28] Speaker B: He was already white.
[00:22:29] Speaker A: I was 10.
[00:22:30] Speaker B: You didn't see him black?
[00:22:31] Speaker A: No, he was.
[00:22:32] Speaker B: That's what I'm talking about.
[00:22:33] Speaker A: Okay, got you.
[00:22:34] Speaker B: So when you look at him, this is the. What you remember and what you see him. He was.
And I don't mean no disrespectful saying white, but that's how he was portrayed to us, as me being. This is 92. So imagine 13 years later. You get what I'm saying? Like, this is a white man to me, who hanging his kids over the. Over the balcony. We did not do a good job of celebrating him well. And I'm not, because obviously I wasn't here. But I'm just saying as a culture, I don't feel like it was. We did a good job of celebrating him.
[00:23:02] Speaker A: I agree with you also. I just remember.
I was gonna say remember the Time, but I remember that it wasn't.
People were not really tapped in like that. It wasn't like how things are now where we have access to information and Internet. It was just different back then because media worked one way.
The media told you what to think, the media told you what to believe.
[00:23:22] Speaker B: That's my problem. The media did not mention he had a skin condition.
[00:23:26] Speaker A: I know that, but that's my point is we weren't in control of the narrative to celebrate him. The media told you he fucked with kids and he bleached his skin. And you know, Pepsi even tried to spin the narrative when the hair, when the fire thing happened.
[00:23:39] Speaker B: That's all I'm saying.
[00:23:40] Speaker A: Yeah. So we weren't in control of it. But I'm just saying I don't know how we could have done things differently or they could have done things.
[00:23:48] Speaker B: Our parents, our household could have told us the truth.
[00:23:50] Speaker A: Got you.
[00:23:51] Speaker B: The people in our household could have told us the truth. I found out about the MTV thing in the theater.
[00:23:55] Speaker A: But how do they tell you the
[00:23:57] Speaker B: truth if they don't know my daddy? Okay, that is true. But I think that you would know that. Okay. Oh, shit. MTV playing Michael Jackson, but they not playing nobody else. Black. You get what I'm saying? Or very little black artists. There are ways that they could have told us these things because that should have been big in a black household. That a channel, a network that's not playing black artists or not known for playing black artists is. Cause that's what the man said. And I think he said, man, you know, they don't do that. And then he was like, but they gonna have to see Billie Jean. So that should have been big. Well, I don't. My family had cable. So that should have been a thing like, oh, shoot, let's turn on the mtv. So you know what I'm saying? So we can see Michael Jackson to see a black man. Cause if the movie, if the timeline is correct, he was still dark skinned at that point.
[00:24:40] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:24:40] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying?
[00:24:40] Speaker A: No, I feel you. I just. I vaguely remember being that young when a lot of stuff was going on and it just wasn't like that. And I don't know why I don't have a. I don't have. We'd have to talk to our elders. But I remember that people weren't as invested like that. It wasn't like, we need to stick up for us. It was just like the media told us this and they just.
[00:25:00] Speaker B: That's my problem. Yeah, I feel that's my problem. Like, and obviously it's like they didn't have social media then to have fan bases and Stuff like that. To be speaking out loud and defending you and things like that. But I think that the way that the media portrayed him had such a huge impact on his downfall because it's like, look what all of these people are saying about him. Look what all these people are saying about me. They think I'm bleaching my skin and I'm wearing wigs and I'm getting my nose smaller because I hate myself.
[00:25:31] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:25:31] Speaker B: And that's not true.
[00:25:33] Speaker A: Right.
[00:25:34] Speaker B: You know, it's just not.
[00:25:35] Speaker A: They villainize him for sure.
[00:25:36] Speaker B: He's weird because he got the monkey in the Never Never Land and all, so. No, he never had a fucking childhood.
[00:25:42] Speaker A: Yeah, no, I feel you.
[00:25:43] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? So it's like that's just what I didn't like that.
I think it's just because I want to know everything and I want to learn so much. So it was just like I felt like I have been done a disservice that I had to learn this shit in a biopic.
You know, it's like I'm learning this shit in a biopic and this is that I should have known. And it's like, I mean, obviously it's lack of knowledge, but I don't like that. This entire time I had no clue about the skin condition.
I thought that he hated himself and that's why he's bleached his skin. That's why he got, you know, the nose smaller. He was wearing the wigs. I thought he wanted to be a white man. You know what I'm saying? Like the kid names and like the, you know, like everything was just. It was just portrayed to you in a certain way. And that's up because there's going to. There's. Before this movie, there's a generation of kids that believe that while our parents know him as being the little boy on the Jackson. Father.
[00:26:38] Speaker A: Yeah. Black boy.
[00:26:38] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? Yes, a black boy.
[00:26:40] Speaker A: Yeah, I feel you.
[00:26:41] Speaker B: But that movie was freaking good.
You want to stick on movies.
[00:26:45] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:26:46] Speaker B: So Scary Movie 6 is dropping soon. Top of June, I believe. And they just released this fire ass popcorn box.
The popcorn box is in the shape of a bong.
[00:26:58] Speaker A: Yeah.
What's dope to me is. Okay, so it's a couple of things. One, Scary Movie 6 is back with the wans.
Right.
So now that Scary Movie 6 is back with. Now they have the. Cause I remember they didn't have control of the franchise at one point. They got it back. I'm looking forward to this because that's where it's supposed to be. It's supposed to be like that. The other thing is, when it come to this bong, it looks dope, and I don't smoke, but they got the little thing that. The little thing coming out of it that I thought. I thought.
I thought it was like some real shit. But it's the butter that you put on the popcorn or whatever. But that brings me to the conversation of these. Of merchandising and stuff like that for these. These. I guess you want to call it merch. That goes with the movies and other things like that. But it's a merch bundle, essentially. I think you brought. You said that. And to me, when I was looking at it, I'm like. I remember the little Star wars helmet that came out. You can get those sealed. Like, those are collector's items. But these theaters are having to come up with creative ways to get people to come to the theater, because people are just, you know, they streaming everything, and people not really going to theaters like that. So the other part about it is the bundle. The idea of the bundle, to me, because. Do you remember back in the day when. Not back in the day, but it was not too long ago when they were selling season passes. Remember amc? Amc, like, the theaters, they were dropping these passes where you can go see as many movies as you want, or you can go see, like, three, four movies a month. But it was like, a certain amount. They were trying to do what the streamers are doing, but in the theater. Do you remember that?
So they're trying to find creative ways to get people to go to the movies.
I don't know if the certain. I think the scary movie one is a good one. I think people are gonna buy them.
[00:28:45] Speaker B: Scream did one, too, and theirs was a.
So it's like. So they had two of them.
It's Ghostface coming out of. And then it's. The popcorn is behind them. And then they have a.
It's a clear case with Ghostface standing in it. And then you fill it up with the popcorn. Another dope one was Devil Wears Prada, too. That one was a red Prada purse.
[00:29:05] Speaker A: That's hard.
[00:29:06] Speaker B: So I'm actually enjoying these incentives because that's something that would get me to the movies, is because I want a souvenir for, you know, like, for my, like, Scream. Like, for my favorite movie. I mean, obviously, I went to the premiere, and then I had my own movie night. So I didn't get the box, but you get what I'm Saying that's something that would make me be like, dang, let me, you know, let me go up there. Let me get that. The stoners are gonna love this.
[00:29:28] Speaker A: Facts. Don't try to really smoke. It's plastic.
It's not glass, bro. You gonna.
You know what I'm saying?
Try yourself. Trying to smoke out of that.
[00:29:39] Speaker B: They're gonna freaking love this. But I thought this was a good topic because they're saying that. Well, okay, no, I saw a report that I. This was. This happened. Okay. I saw a report that said that the Gen Z are watching the movies more. They're going to the movies more, versus us. For whatever reason, we stopped going to Gen X and Millennial. Oh, you a millennial?
[00:30:06] Speaker A: I'm a millennial.
[00:30:07] Speaker B: What's before you, before us?
[00:30:08] Speaker A: Gen X, Generation X.
[00:30:11] Speaker B: Okay, so Gen X. I think it's Gen X, Gen X and the Millennials. For whatever reason, the report said we just stopped going to the movies and stuff like that. And that's. These. All these popcorn boxes are something that would get me to the movies just to have these, you know, souvenirs. I have every single premiere ticket that we've ever gone to.
[00:30:31] Speaker A: Really?
[00:30:31] Speaker B: Yes. I have all of them. They on my ottoman with Nipsey obituary and like, all my, you know, like,
[00:30:37] Speaker A: I kept that hip hop stuff. I have the ticket from Nipsey's from the funeral too, but I don't really keep those anymore.
[00:30:44] Speaker B: Yeah, I got the obituary and I have all the tickets from all the premieres that we ever been to.
[00:30:49] Speaker A: Or what?
That's gonna be dope.
[00:30:51] Speaker B: So I like things like this. And then, like, Scary Movie 6 is so nostalgic. And now, like you said, the Wayne brothers are back, you know, with the production. So that makes it better. I was. What you about to say?
[00:31:04] Speaker A: No, no, go ahead.
[00:31:05] Speaker B: I rewatched the trailer and I thought that I needed to go back and watch all of the Scary Movie references to get it, but they shot that shit kind of fast.
[00:31:17] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:31:18] Speaker B: You know, because how is weapons in it?
Weapons low key came out yesterday.
[00:31:22] Speaker A: They. I think so was. So I had a thought about that when I first saw the trailer. I'm like, damn, bro. Like, they shot this shit yesterday. Right. But I think what's happening is. I think that they kind of know what's coming. Cause, you know, it's Hollywood.
[00:31:36] Speaker B: Oh. Because they would par. Let me see if Scary Movie 6 is paramount too.
[00:31:40] Speaker A: I don't think it's the studio, like, feeding them information. I think it's just so you kind of get an idea of what projects are being shopped. Like, you can kind of tell, like, you'll. Let's say like, we're here at the radio station. Yeah, we would kind of. Even though we not the white people that's running shit, if Sway was finna you know, start another show, we would kind of probably know Sway is finna start another show up here at some point. And so then, even if we don't know.
[00:32:09] Speaker B: No, all of these are Paramount movies.
[00:32:10] Speaker A: They all are.
[00:32:11] Speaker B: Yeah.
Not all of them, but a lot of them are Paramount movies.
[00:32:15] Speaker A: Okay. So there you go. I mean, yeah, it would benefit Paramount to include their properties in that property.
[00:32:23] Speaker B: Yeah, no, that's. That's. They doing a good job. I'm just. It's crazy to me that scary movie 6 is coming out before last Friday.
[00:32:31] Speaker A: So the other thing about this is merch bundles, and this plays into the. What was the point you made about music?
[00:32:39] Speaker B: I never brought it back to music.
I asked the question, are movie theaters doing merch bundles to get asses in the seats?
[00:32:48] Speaker A: Oh, okay.
[00:32:48] Speaker B: Because the thing that I was thinking, that is, like, if the movie doesn't.
If the movie doesn't make enough money in ticket sales or if the theater doesn't make enough money in ticket sales, then a way that they probably resolve that is to make the shit at the snack bar high as hell.
[00:33:10] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:33:10] Speaker B: And then what do we get? What I.
What'd you say it was like. You said it was like $80 or something for the. For. For the popcorn buckets?
[00:33:18] Speaker A: Yeah, the buckets. Yeah.
[00:33:19] Speaker B: That's like four movie tickets.
[00:33:22] Speaker A: Yeah, these. These collectors items. Like, you. Like, you keep them.
[00:33:24] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:33:25] Speaker A: So the. The reason why this is important is because. Yes, you're right. But I think it's a yes. And so how the movie. For people that don't aren't aware how the movie. To my understanding, how the movie structure works is the theater makes money from buying stuff at the theater. They don't make money off, necessarily, the movie that's being showed unless they negotiate a certain percentage of ticket sales. Most theaters, especially the big ones and the independent ones, are like, hey, buy some licorice. Buy some M and Ms. That's how we staff, and that's how we keep this thing running Cool.
But when you add in the music component of it, it's like, this is a merch bundle. It's the same thing as people talking like Travis Scott or Pete, Beyonce or Taylor Swift who sell merch bundles. It's like, hey, here's a movie Ticket. But here goes some shit, whether it be a T shirt, you know, whatever else we selling. Cool. Boom.
I pulled up something because I thought it was interesting. So I don't know if I spoke on this before on the show, but Prince was like the first person to kind of like, do a merch bundle, so to speak, that we know of today.
He had some issues with the label. He changed his name to Assemble. That's where the artist formerly known camera.
Then he would basically sell a ticket to his show, and then you get an album with it for free. And that's his way of, like, screwing over the label back in the day. And that's why people put. That's why all the contracts say likeness in it. That's some industry insider shit. But prior to here, go to dates, Taylor Swift, Travis Scott, Tyler, the Creator, DJ Khaled kind of started doing merch bundles around 2017 is what this is saying. Right.
Prior to that, it was Prince, Madonna, and then like, Tom Petty and Bon Jovi. Those are like older acts. But the merch bundle, quote, unquote, kind of started around 2004.
So I just want to throw that out there because there's a lot of conversation about the merch bundles and how it plays into the movie thing. But, yes, I think you're right. That is a way to get people to fuck with your shit.
[00:35:20] Speaker B: Yeah. And even like, how you said, like, the theater don't make money for the tickets, but the theater does lose money if people don't come watch the movie.
[00:35:28] Speaker A: Exactly.
[00:35:29] Speaker B: So they do have to, like. Yeah, I get what you're saying. Like, oh, they don't get nothing from that, but they essentially do. Because if you come watch the movie, you gonna go get a popcorn box.
[00:35:37] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:35:37] Speaker B: So we make up for the money on both ends.
[00:35:40] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:35:41] Speaker B: Okay, so while we still talking about tv, I know you didn't finish Nemesis yet, but. So I do wanna talk about that next week. But there was a scene in Nemesis that struck the nerves of Los Angeles natives.
So I wanna start off by saying I don't want to spoil it for DJ Head, because he haven't. He. We went to the premiere, but he hasn't finished the whole thing. Movie 10 out of 10. I mean, show 10 out of 10. For me, the acting was good.
I enjoyed that. I can be able to tell, like, the tax bracket of certain people in the movie. Like the cop, he like, he drip. He like. It's like power. Like, he got that shit on he by his girl Van Cleef. Like that. If you Know, you know, like, if you ever see the bracelets with the clovers, it looked like a clover or the chain with the clovers, Akon had them dripped when he was here.
So that mean they got money.
Okay, just Google Van Cleef. Just look up the price of a Van Cleef bracelet real quick.
[00:36:40] Speaker A: Spell that shit. Oh, I see Van Cleef. That shit popped right up.
[00:36:44] Speaker B: Yeah, go hit that shopping tab.
[00:36:47] Speaker A: Shopping tab.
[00:36:48] Speaker B: Hit that shopping tab.
[00:36:49] Speaker A: Van Cleef bracelet.
[00:36:51] Speaker B: Exactly, Exactly.
[00:36:54] Speaker A: I have seen this before.
[00:36:55] Speaker B: Exactly. Yeah. You see what it costs?
[00:36:58] Speaker A: Why is it $6,000 for a bracelet?
[00:36:59] Speaker B: Yeah, that's minimum too, probably.
They got some necklaces that's like 14 bands.
[00:37:04] Speaker A: What the fuck?
[00:37:06] Speaker B: Mm.
Damn.
[00:37:08] Speaker A: Why is this.
[00:37:10] Speaker B: So I'm looking at stuff like that.
[00:37:11] Speaker A: This shit $20,000.
[00:37:13] Speaker B: Exactly. So if a cop wife got that.
If a cop wife is wearing that,
[00:37:20] Speaker A: man, he a dirty cop.
[00:37:21] Speaker B: Well, you said that about that black man. I didn't say that.
[00:37:23] Speaker A: Man, fuck that. That nigga dirty. It ain't. I know what cops make.
[00:37:28] Speaker B: Well, it's funny, you.
There is a scene where he like pay one of the.
One of the other officers in the lapd and then he say, hey, where you get all this money from? He said, I'll sell dope on the side. But it was like, it was like, you know, it was like a joke or whatever. But anyway, I just wanted to say that first that I thought like everything was good. I didn't, you know me. I'm looking for editing errors and like continuity between scenes and stuff. And like, everything was good. I thought the storyline was amazing. 10 out of 10. I think everybody should go watch it.
And I think that a season two is coming.
[00:38:02] Speaker A: Yeah, definitely.
[00:38:03] Speaker B: I think a season two is coming. And if it's not Kourtney, we need that. Nah, for sure, we need that.
[00:38:09] Speaker A: Shout out to Courtney Kemp too. Who just her new deal with Apple. She just did a first look deal with Apple tv. Plus an all in deal. Kind of like how Shonda Rhimes did back in the day.
Fire black woman. Getting to it?
[00:38:23] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, no, I liked it a lot.
Okay, so let me show you.
[00:38:31] Speaker A: So the clip. You want to play the.
[00:38:33] Speaker B: Oh, you're gonna play the clip.
[00:38:34] Speaker A: All right, play it.
[00:38:34] Speaker B: And then shout out to. Shout out to Dom. Mom calls me Dom on Instagram. We actually went to high school together.
He posted this.
I was not playing

[00:38:53] Speaker A: It's on a dead homies. Not.
[00:38:57] Speaker B: I don't need you. Where the hell you going? I'm still talking to you.
When I tell you I lost my. When I heard that. Cuz it was reminding me of in Crenshaw. Remember when I kept saying in Crenshaw all American?
And one thing that I do appreciate Nemesis for is that they cover.
They cover like a lot of the like LA stereotypes. They cover the multi different layers of of Los Angeles. They got the Slauson is highlighted, the jury district is highlighted. Even like how we do the paintbrush shit. Like I mean not paintbrush, airbrush. How we do the airbrush shirts and things like that. Like that was highlighted.
They're even. They even make different. It's just like different references that you would have to, you know, like have to know. But for the Crip.
Hire some Crips
[00:39:51] Speaker A: on the Dead Homies either.
I'm like, I'll be on the Dead Homies.
[00:39:56] Speaker B: So remember when we was at the premiere and I forgot the co writer's name? I wanted to shout him out, but I forgot his name. But you know, it was Courtney Kemp, the co writer. And they said, you know, we two people from the east Coast. So we wanted to make sure that we covered like the essence of Los Angeles in a good way. And when I tell you, I mean the music shout out to Rance. It was like the music like was just freaking on point.
[00:40:21] Speaker A: And Scott Verner too. Shout out to Scott Werner, music supervisor,
[00:40:24] Speaker B: too hire some Crips.
[00:40:27] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:40:28] Speaker B: Is all I'm saying. Or somebody that's gonna tell you. You don't say it like that. Cause it was even a scene on there where the cop. It's a Hispanic cop. And she was like, she said, she said, she said, yeah, I just followed him from the Slauson swap meet. We don't ever say swap meet. We say the slothing, the slossing. It's the slussy.
[00:40:50] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:40:50] Speaker B: You know, so like. But obviously, I mean that's, that's minor. The on the Dead Homies is way bigger than the slothing.
I didn't like it because it's. It's definitely. It's literally definitely like, hey, on the Dead Homies, you gonna make me late.
[00:41:03] Speaker A: Yeah, you get on. It was just. It was off the whole. It was off the whole. Even the. It was just off, bro. It. That was crazy. Cuz I ain't got that far in the, in the show yet. But when that clip went vi went up, I'm like, that ain't even in the show. That can't be in the show. And it was in the show. I'm like, damn, bro, that's.
[00:41:23] Speaker B: But no, they did. They. They literally did a phenomenal job. And even, like, where they were talking about, like, the difference from, like, View park and things like that, like, I just thought it was good. I thought they did a good job of that.
[00:41:33] Speaker A: Yeah. No, I am looking forward to getting further in the nemesis of my episode two. So I'm really looking forward to getting there. But I ain't there yet.
[00:41:42] Speaker B: When I tell you you ain't seen nothing yet. For real, you haven't seen nothing yet?
[00:41:48] Speaker A: Oh, it's cracking.
[00:41:49] Speaker B: Like. It gets so good, huh?
It gets so you can't say her name no more.

[00:42:08] Speaker A: Yeah, it gets.
[00:42:09] Speaker B: It.
[00:42:09] Speaker A: See, I knew it was. Okay. I'm gonna be. I'm honest. I was gonna turn it on three nights ago because I've been. I've been working late, but I was gonna turn. But I'm like, if I turn this shit on, I'll be up till five in the morning.
[00:42:19] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:42:20] Speaker A: I'm cool, bro. Like, I got shit to do. I gotta get up early. I'm cool, like. Cause I've done that before. I did that with.

It was the mom was the lady that play on all Tyler Perry stuff.
[00:42:45] Speaker A: Who was the lady that starred in it? Who was the black woman?
[00:42:48] Speaker B: I cannot think of her name. I know the movie you talking about, though, where she was walking naked down the road and all of that. Yeah. And she. She went and killed all her friends, nigga.
[00:42:55] Speaker A: I watched that shit one night, all in one night. I just couldn't go to sleep. I was just like, I gotta see what the fuck happened, nigga. Next episode, doo doo.
[00:43:03] Speaker B: I'm like, that's how Desiree B. I'm going to sleep.
[00:43:07] Speaker A: I stay up till 5:30 in the morning watching that shit. I'm like, I won't do that no more. I'm 40. I can't do that no more.
[00:43:13] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:43:14] Speaker A: So.
[00:43:15] Speaker B: Well, congratulations are in order for Latto and 21 Savage.
They just.
What'd you say?
[00:43:22] Speaker A: Oh, God, that was 21 ad lib.
[00:43:25] Speaker B: They just welcomed A baby boy into the world.
[00:43:28] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:43:28] Speaker B: Remember, I thought it was a girl.
[00:43:30] Speaker A: We had a whole conversation about that. Oh, it's a girl.
[00:43:33] Speaker B: I was like, nope, let me shut up. Let me shut up. But before that.
[00:43:36] Speaker A: Rumor spreads, but, yes, confirmed as a boy.
[00:43:39] Speaker B: Yeah, it's a boy. So I didn't know that she was that far along.
I didn't know she was that far along.
[00:43:45] Speaker A: I. Could I.
Well, you remember, like. Remember when you was like, can a bitch have a. What did you say? Can she just.
[00:43:51] Speaker B: Can a bitch be bloated in peace?
[00:43:53] Speaker A: Yeah, she didn't bloated. That was baby in there.
[00:43:56] Speaker B: Whole time it was a little baby. Yeah.
[00:43:58] Speaker A: Whole time it was a baby. Congrats to Latto on 21 Savage. I think that that's dope, that. I think it's beautiful when parents are happy to be parents, where it's not like a. It's like, fuck, when she want to keep it.
[00:44:10] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:44:10] Speaker A: Yes.
You know, I had that conversation with my mom before.
[00:44:15] Speaker B: What conversation did you have with your mom?
[00:44:16] Speaker A: I had it. She didn't. I wasn't really, you know, supposed to be here.
Like, not. Not. Not. Not in a negative way. She just. She had to.
[00:44:25] Speaker B: She got. She just got hit. We talked about this before.
[00:44:27] Speaker A: She had the little T in there.
The little T?
[00:44:31] Speaker B: Birth control.
[00:44:32] Speaker A: Yeah, we. You. They put the little T in there.
[00:44:34] Speaker B: You grabbed that motherfucker, man.
[00:44:35] Speaker A: I came out. Nah, it was just. It's supposed to. It's supposed to, like, knock off your uterus, your uterine walls or whatever. But I'm in there low, so that's
[00:44:43] Speaker B: why you act like that.
[00:44:44] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:44:45] Speaker B: Were you a surprise baby?
[00:44:47] Speaker A: Hell, yeah.
[00:44:47] Speaker B: She didn't know she was pregnant.
[00:44:49] Speaker A: She didn't know she wasn't supposed to get pregnant. I'm a miracle baby.
[00:44:53] Speaker B: Right. But did she know she was pregnant when she was pregnant?
[00:44:55] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. When she found out.
[00:44:57] Speaker B: I'm. I'm. What I'm saying is she didn't wake up one day and was cramping and didn't know she was going to labor.
[00:45:00] Speaker A: Nah, nah, she knew.
[00:45:02] Speaker B: That's how. That's. That's how. That's how situations happen where a woman is literally going on about her life for a full nine months and then goes into, like. She has, like, pains, their contractions, but she thinks she cramping.
[00:45:16] Speaker A: Got you.
[00:45:17] Speaker B: And then it's like, oh. Cause some women still have a period.
[00:45:19] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:45:20] Speaker B: Throughout their pregnancy.
[00:45:21] Speaker A: That's kind of crazy.
[00:45:23] Speaker B: Well, I guess we can get to what everybody's waiting for.
[00:45:25] Speaker A: Yeah. They want to hear about it.
[00:45:28] Speaker B: So I should have chewed a gummy.
[00:45:30] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:45:31] Speaker B: I need a motherfucking gummy. Boy. When I tell you, I'm like, I'm woe out. This might be my last day.
This might be my last day. On the topic of him, his OPP and the married rapper that bowed out.
[00:45:46] Speaker A: It's a lot, bro. Okay, so Iceman. We're talking about Iceman.
Let me pull up my notes. Cause I have notes as well.
So Drake dropped an album. It's called Iceman. Everyone's aware of this. We discussed the rollout.
The songs have come out. He not only dropped Iceman, he dropped two additional albums, Habibti and Maid of Honor. Not man of Honor. Maid of Honor.
[00:46:13] Speaker B: Yeah. And that's why you don't need to be leaking shit.
[00:46:16] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:46:16] Speaker B: Cause you fucked us up. We got a whole conversation. I couldn't cut the clip up because it says we are saying man of Honor.
And that's what you gotta get your motherfucking facts right before you do that.
[00:46:26] Speaker A: You know, I was just trying to get everybody excited about the album.
[00:46:29] Speaker B: No, you wasn't.
[00:46:29] Speaker A: So.
[00:46:31] Speaker B: No, you wasn't. That might.
So I might wanna give you the Player Hater Award.
[00:46:36] Speaker A: So the album is out on Iceman album. There are 18 tracks. Okay.
Before I. Well, Gina, views. Go ahead.
[00:46:46] Speaker B: No, you go.
[00:46:47] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:46:48] Speaker B: All you gonna do is shit on what I say.
[00:46:51] Speaker A: That's not true.
So I did like the fact that he was rapping on this album.
I liked a couple of songs or a few songs, actually.
I liked to make them cry. I'm gonna come back to that. I like Make Them Pay. Make Them Pay is a dope rap record. It's a really dope rap record.
I think the Burning Bridges one was cool and then too hard for the radio. I'm gonna come back to that. Cause I know there's a lot going on around that.
And I've seen a lot of conversation around Lil Birdie. But Janice stfu, I guess that's the standout record. Most people are like, really, I guess, gravitating towards. That's also the song that's currently being serviced to radio. So I'm assuming that there's a lot of traction around that song and the response to it. I didn't look it up on the streaming services and whatnot. But I do know that Janice STFU is one of those records for clarity and we can move past it. I did make a phone call about the Janis STFU record because there's been speculation that that's like, going at this person and that person. No, it's just.
I believe I'm speaking for myself. I believe that that song is just his reflection on the industry.
[00:48:03] Speaker B: So for the fans who are not. Or viewers who are not on Twitter, who did they think?
[00:48:10] Speaker A: Basically, the conversation was like, janice is like a speculative. Like somebody at our label or is something to do with Keem or like, whatever the case may be. It's just.
I don't believe that. You know what I'm saying? I think it's just his reflection on everybody.
It's personifying everybody into one person.
So cool song. All good. The Run to Atlanta song, the one that I was trying to promote Ran to Atlanta is Drake Future and Molly Santana.
I think that. What?
[00:48:47] Speaker B: Cause that's a lie.
[00:48:48] Speaker A: I was promoting the record, so Ran to Atlanta. I don't think that it did what people thought it was gonna do. I think that people expected it to sound like, what a time to be alive. And it's like a kind of a completely different type of vibe.
And I think it's getting negative reviews for it. I think it's cool song. Like, I don't look at it. I don't look at it as, like, what a time to be Alive, but I don't look at it as a bad song. And to be fair, also, I'm gonna say this because I know that people just gonna be clipping the fuck out of this. I don't. Iceman is not a bad album. Like, it's not. It's not his best album, but it's not his worst album either, in my opinion.
Now, from a rap standpoint, where's my other note at?
Okay.
Make them remember that. Rapping on that.
That was rapping on that. You know what I'm saying? I like. I. I like. I like when the rap.
[00:49:39] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying?
[00:49:40] Speaker A: Yeah, I like when a rap.
I just. In my notes, it says, make them remember, and it says rapping in big, bold font.
And then.
Okay, so now we're gonna get into some of the critiques.
Well, I'm doing another fan service question. I mean, not fan service pov. Too hard for the radio. That's controversial. Because he's. Okay, first. First and foremost, I'm gonna get. I wanna say this. Number one, DJ Head always has been and always will support the Bay. Number two, the Homie Pilo. I don't know. Bari and the Homie Jayant are our contributors on this record. I support JN. I support P1000%. I don't know Bari. But if he from the Bay, I with him too. K.
Sorry, I that up, Kari. I'm speaking fast right now.
[00:50:31] Speaker B: You think you ig?
[00:50:33] Speaker A: Why? Oh, because I just put the B in front of. That's stupid. And Kari's with a K, so it'd still be.
[00:50:38] Speaker B: Well, you was wrong either way.
[00:50:40] Speaker A: Yeah, Hot.
[00:50:41] Speaker B: That's wrong. Gonna correct me?
[00:50:44] Speaker A: I don't know Khari. I don't know Khari. But if he from the Bay, I fuck with bro too.
The Too Hard for the Radio is controversial because on one side I've gotten that he's intentionally trying to drive a wedge between LA and the Bay. I don't buy that. I don't subscribe to that. The Bay and la, we fuck with each other.
I'm not contributing to that conversation or narrative that there's. That there's gonna be like, you're not gonna do that with me or my platform.
[00:51:15] Speaker B: Wait, what? You're saying you don't believe that he's doing it, or you're saying it's impossible to happen?
[00:51:19] Speaker A: Nothing's impossible. I'm not participating in that, though. And that narrative of like, like, yeah, well, LA shouldn't support that song because it's him. It's like, no, if the niggas wanna hear the records, play the records. I don't like it. Don't. You know, whatever. Cool.
But for the people who.
For the DJs, I'll say this for the DJs who feel conflicted. If you go to dj head.com.
i have an edit of Too Hard for the Radio that you can play without disses in it. It's just a DJ Head edit that you can play free of charge. You can download it, go to dj.
[00:51:56] Speaker B: What did you remove?
[00:51:58] Speaker A: Well, he's taking. He said something about Mustard. He says something about.
I forgot. It was like a couple things he said. I don't remember the bars, but I just remember it was like some slight. Some little slick shit that he said. So those things have been removed. And you could play the DJ Head version free and clear with guilt free.
[00:52:16] Speaker B: Who's the targeted consumer for that song? For your edit?
[00:52:20] Speaker A: For my edit. For the DJs.
[00:52:22] Speaker B: Where?
[00:52:23] Speaker A: In LA.
[00:52:24] Speaker B: Because we don't want to disrespect Mustard.
[00:52:26] Speaker A: Because people feel conflicted about playing a song that's taking shots at the homies.
So this one doesn't have that.
[00:52:35] Speaker B: It's a little contradiction. Why the people who wouldn't play it?
[00:52:40] Speaker A: Oh, because it's taking. Because.
[00:52:42] Speaker B: Yeah, because when did we ever give A about taking shots at each other and them. Because we'll. We'll play some from, some from la. Taking shots at. From la.
[00:52:51] Speaker A: Yeah, no, it's definitely. Yeah, I get what you're saying 100%.
But I made the edit, so it's there for you to have at it.
[00:53:00] Speaker B: Look at you.
Look at you benefiting off of a Drake song.
[00:53:04] Speaker A: I'm not. I'm not charging nothing.
[00:53:06] Speaker B: You not charging nothing. But it will drive traffic to your website.
[00:53:08] Speaker A: I'm not monetizing my website.
[00:53:09] Speaker B: I didn't say that. I said drive traffic. You see how a nigga will flip your words in your face?
[00:53:14] Speaker A: Well, I'm not. Yeah, okay. Well, I could put it on somebody else's website, but I felt like they was gonna take it down.
[00:53:19] Speaker B: She gave it domestic.
[00:53:21] Speaker A: I could. I could send it to you. I don't think he gonna play it either way.
Okay, so wait, I do want to know.
[00:53:28] Speaker B: Did you actually like that song? I thought that that was gonna. Would have been your favorite one from now. I like.
[00:53:32] Speaker A: No, I like the song. I like. So there's a couple things that. And I don't know how much I could get into it, but the second half of that song. I don't know why he did so many beat switches on this album.
[00:53:42] Speaker B: He does that. He's done that multiple times on multiple albums.
[00:53:44] Speaker A: But it's a. To me, it's just a lot on this one. I don't know. Maybe I'm just.
[00:53:48] Speaker B: It's just. It's more music. It's more of the rap music.
[00:53:51] Speaker A: Got you.
[00:53:52] Speaker B: It's just more of it. You get. It's no different than all of the make thems. All of the make thems.
[00:53:57] Speaker A: Okay. Got it.
[00:53:58] Speaker B: If we would have got one Iceman album, we probably would only got one make them. If that makes sense. We wouldn't have. I mean, I won Iceman. If we would have got Iceman, Habiti and Maid of Honor, like, all in one, obviously we wouldn't have gotten 40 songs. We probably would have got, like 17 or something. But we would have had only had a few versions of certain songs on there. So that's probably why it's like, it stands.
Cause like you said, he's doing it so much on these albums and it's standing out to you more than it has before.
[00:54:25] Speaker A: Yeah. I probably also haven't, like, deep dove into them, like, to know, like, there's been a lot of beat switches, but to me, it just seemed like it was just too many beat switches.
[00:54:34] Speaker B: I still haven't like, done a deep dive as well, to even understand why is, you know, it's a story behind everything, facts. So that's one thing that I was confused about listening to it. And I'm also thinking. I'm like, did the song change? I had to keep looking up at
[00:54:48] Speaker A: the trackers at the thing. Yeah.
Okay. And then a couple more things for me, make them cry. The intro song thought it was a dope. I thought it was dope.
He talked about 40, giving him advice on evolving and growing up and stuff like that.
And, you know, I don't know, maybe we should lean into that a little bit. You know what I mean? Like, certain niggas talk about listening to the engineer. We should probably listen to our engineers a little bit more.
So I thought that Freddie always giving
[00:55:22] Speaker B: him advice on his rap about it.
[00:55:25] Speaker A: So I just think that that was a cool record. The only two critiques I have. One is it's still, to me, a lot of victim, like, woes is me.
You can speak about your experience, but my critique and people gonna obviously feel how they gonna feel about it. It's like, bro, no one did anything to you that you didn't invite. Like, you invited this energy into your life. So you then can't take the stance of a victim. If you invited this energy into your life, regardless of how far it went, how left it went, you were offered different ways to deal with it. You chose to deal with it this way, and then you can't then be offended or sad or heartbroken. Whatever you feel about the repercussions of something you invited. To me, that's just lame.
[00:56:13] Speaker B: Go ahead.
[00:56:14] Speaker A: I'm sorry, I just don't. I don't. I don't. As a man who comes from the environments that we come from, I don't respect that kind of energy is what I'm saying.
[00:56:22] Speaker B: What you mean he was offered different ways and you took this way?
[00:56:26] Speaker A: It could have been less egregious. Like. Like, he mentions multiple times in songs. It went this far and whatever. Like, in. Like, I forgot what the bar was. But he mentioned, like, basically he's taking the stance it went too far. He even mentioned that when the. Pusha T. When he. I think he did the shop. Was it the shop interview when he was talking about why he disengaged from Pusha T. And he was like, it just went too far. Like, you know, something to that effect. Right. To me, that shows that we're not the same thing, because I don't. We. Yes. There are certain rules of Engagement. But I don't think you fully understand the rules of engagement that you're engaging in when you invite that kind of energy into your life.
So understand what you're getting yourself into before you do that. Because I go back to push ups. I go back to Family Matters. I go back to a couple of records. The push ups things, even in the heart or whatever. I know you in that apartment. Nigga in New York, you better come up with some shit. Nigga, you better come up with some double entendres. I remember drop drop. I remember to use me as. They have nothing to drop button.
[00:57:38] Speaker B: Even all the stuff on his story,
[00:57:39] Speaker A: I remember all of you invited this energy.
[00:57:43] Speaker B: So to me, stay on stream came from him, right?
[00:57:46] Speaker A: Essentially, yes.
[00:57:47] Speaker B: No, no, it's not essentially. It was a comment that he left
[00:57:50] Speaker A: on somebody's page, right?
[00:57:52] Speaker B: He said, stay on stream.
[00:57:53] Speaker A: He told them niggas to stay on. Yeah, but I'm just saying, like these. This energy that he invited into his life. So to take. I get it. Maybe one, a couple, two songs. You can address certain things. We expected that. I don't like the victim shit. That's lame. Because you participated. You know what I'm saying? So that. That's. That's a critique I got.
The other critique I have is, Was it make them know?
I think it was not make them. I don't remember the exact song it might have been. Make them remember or make them know. But he was basically talking, what's the 23andMe? The LeBron shit? What song is that?
[00:58:36] Speaker B: Make them remember.
[00:58:37] Speaker A: Make them remember. Okay, so the LeBron shit to me was weird, esque. Not because I don't know their personal relationship. This is now, this is me speculating from the outside in. I don't have any information, but the speculation is that, oh, these people were my real friends. Because I remember he said the only people he mentioned, I think 21. Savage, he mentioned. He said 20. He said Savage Bank. And it was like three people he mentioned by name who, quote, unquote, kept it solid with him or whatever the case may be. Okay, cool. But to me, again, that screams that you haven't faced certain adversities in your life to understand nuance.
Nuance meaning, yeah, there are some people that are your ride or die. We gonna go down with the ship together. And then there are some people who are not. And either way is okay. It's up to you to understand and accept how people wanna participate in your life. Now, again, I don't have any inside information.
Maybe Lebron told him that they were blood brothers or they die hard ride or die, whatever their bond was. But I don't necessarily subscribe to that ideology. As a man who's about to be 40, it's like these people turn their back on me because they chose to participate in these moments of that. Of those things. Now, again, how would you feel if
[00:59:57] Speaker B: I went and did a show with academics while he's dragging you?
[01:00:00] Speaker A: It depend on what it depend on to be honest.
[01:00:02] Speaker B: I want you to be honest as a human.
[01:00:04] Speaker A: As a human being. I would just be like, with academics, I'm synthesizing. I wouldn't feel it. I wouldn't get offensive.
[01:00:15] Speaker B: Okay.
[01:00:17] Speaker A: But I also have a different mindset when it comes to certain things. Like, I don't internalize many things.
[01:00:23] Speaker B: So how do you think the average person would feel about something similar?
[01:00:27] Speaker A: Oh, they would be hot.
They would feel betrayed and all kind of things like that. Right.
But that's my point is I can't. That's why I keep saying me like I'm not speaking for him. I can't relate to that. So those are my.
[01:00:39] Speaker B: That's why it don't matter how we feel.
[01:00:41] Speaker A: I agree with you.
[01:00:41] Speaker B: It's his art.
[01:00:42] Speaker A: I agree with you. I'm just going through the critique of what I'm saying. So those are the things that I personally can't relate to that I don't subscribe to, which turns me off of certain instances of the song. But for the most part, this is. It's a solid Drake album.
[01:00:57] Speaker B: I do want to respond to that because that's one thing that I saw a lot of people saying.
Everything you just said is the same thing that people were saying with the whole, like him playing the victim and things like that.
The stuff that's expressing yourself on your album is not the part that's corny to me. It's everything else that happened before the album, after. Not like a.
[01:01:20] Speaker A: That's corny to me, which is what lawsuits got you.
[01:01:23] Speaker B: And the backpedaling and, you know, the whole. I don't even wanna get into all of that, but.
[01:01:28] Speaker A: Oh, I liked whole. Please too. Before we move on. Sorry.
[01:01:30] Speaker B: Okay, so that's the stuff that is.
That turns me off because, like, the point that you made, you engaged into this.
You asked for this. I remember him saying, drop, drop, drop, drop, drop. I remember the stay on stream comment. I remember all of the things. All of the. All of the. And if the story is true, that it was you, whatever happened behind the scenes. And then the actual you know, the battle ended up happening. If all of that is true, then that's what turns me off of a person as an artist. Because you asked for all of this. And then when it got too deep, it was like, oh, hold on. This not what I. I didn't think you was gonna do this, but it's like, you asked for this energy. I don't have a problem with artists expressing themselves on albums. We let Cardi B take eight years to drop an album talking about the same n.
So it's like, how, you know, like, asap. Rocky dropped the album. Still talking about Drake. Like, it happens, but it's like, when Drake does it, and it's like, it's victim, victim, victim and things like that. But it's like, well, this is my experience. What else? He's probably been fucking depressed for the past two years because he feel like. Like how we say all the time.
It almost seems like he don't realize he's still that nigga. Like, he let the battle get the best of him and things like that. So if that's been my experience this whole time, then that lets me know you're in full transparency. Like, you being fully transparent of how you feel about these things. You know, stuff like that. We kind of been waiting on him to say something about LeBron and J. Cole and, you know, whatever. And it's like, now that we got the album, you are venting about what your experience has been in these past two years, which is normal for rappers. But since Drake is doing it, and we know he asked for this battle, now he is victimizing himself. But I don't have a problem with the victimizing stuff because that's what people do on albums. Like, people do that. They talk about all the things they went through and stuff like that. What makes it bad to me is the shit that you did after you asked for this facts before the album came out. Cause I didn't expect nothing else but for him to do this. If you listen to any Drake albums, all he's doing is venting.
That's all he's doing on every Drake album. He's venting, he's flexing. He's telling you about the bitches he fucked. He's telling you how much money he spent. That's what he doing here.
This is the same as any other Drake album to me. The difference now is that we got three projects.
That's the difference to me now. But before, it's like he been doing this crying shit.
That was the critique of him early on is he cried too much.
So why are we expecting Drake to not do what we already said that he was doing before all of this shit even happened? He's been crying. According to. You know, the popular opinion is that he's a crybaby. He whines and all that type of stuff. So when I'm listening to the album, I'm like, oh, this what we already.
You know, like, that's why in my tweet, I said this old Drake to me. Like, to me, it felt like nothing was the same. It felt like views. It felt like, thank me later. Because it's the. It's. It's still him. And I don't think Drake is getting enough credit for giving something to each specific fan.
So what's. What's one thing that people say? I mean, that you just said, I like when he rap. All right, here you go. A rap album.
What do I say? I like when he talk to the all right, here go R B album. Yeah, but what pleases the. On a larger scale, the international shit that we don't like, I still gotta do this. But if he would have gave us one project with three albums combined, we wouldn't have got half of this, half of this, these songs. It would have been like 17 things. And then we would have been complaining. Oh, it's too much girl shit. Okay, he rapping right here, but I need more of that. Oh, here he go with all this international stuff. You get what I'm saying? Like, it would have been so much complaining, complaining, complaining. So since this. What y' all want me to do, some of y' all want the girl shit. Some of y' all want. And he even. It's a bar. I forget what song it is. He say something like, they say that I can't do R and B by myself or drop a R and B album alone. He say something like that. I don't. I don't even know if that's the verbatim bar, but that's on one of the. One of the albums or whatever. And I think that he heard every critique, and he gave it to us. He gave us three albums. Because you niggas say I don't rap enough or y' all say I do too much girl shit, and y' all don't like this international stuff. So let me give you something that's gonna cater to each specific thing.
That's what I feel like he's not getting credit enough for.
[01:06:15] Speaker A: Yeah,
[01:06:17] Speaker B: my other takeaway classic is my favorite song right now.
[01:06:22] Speaker A: Really?
[01:06:24] Speaker B: And I Don't know how to pronounce the title of habiti. Habepty Habibty.
[01:06:28] Speaker A: I think that's how you say it.
[01:06:29] Speaker B: So classic is on that album.
[01:06:30] Speaker A: That's what the homies told me.
[01:06:31] Speaker B: Yeah. I don't. People been telling me, but, you know, I'm a butcher. It.
[01:06:35] Speaker A: Anyway, whether you tell me or not, habibti is. From what I understand. I mean, we can Google it. But from what the homies who are of that culture told me, it's basically the feminine version of habibi.
[01:06:45] Speaker B: It's like habibi, like the.
[01:06:47] Speaker A: Yeah, but habibi's like man the mask.
[01:06:50] Speaker B: And habibti would be like senor and senorita.
[01:06:53] Speaker A: Senora, Senora, Senorita.
[01:06:55] Speaker B: Yeah. Oh, okay, okay, okay. You want to know what's so funny about that? So when I seen the title of it, the reason why I'm even pronouncing it the way I'm pronouncing it. Cause somebody corrected me, I kept calling it habibi, which is a hookah lounge in LA that all the people with money go to, you know, when they come out here.
[01:07:12] Speaker A: So Arabic word literally translates to my love or my darling. And then habibti would be the feminine version equivalent to that.
[01:07:19] Speaker B: Okay.
[01:07:20] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:07:21] Speaker B: But yeah, so the way that I. I don't know if you. The same, I think. Do you dissect new music in your car?
[01:07:25] Speaker A: No, I can't.
[01:07:27] Speaker B: You got a whole system, huh? I forgot. You a fucking dj. You probably in that motherfucker, right?
You probably was in there spinning this shit.
[01:07:33] Speaker A: Yeah, I be listening to it different.
[01:07:35] Speaker B: So I got home, obviously, you know, I got this new cloud couch and I lit a candle, I turned all the lights off. I lit my little fireplace up with my LED light. This is normally how I consume Drake albums in general. And I really wish I had a guide on what to do, because since you had said maid of honor was the one that was like, coming, I said, ooh, I. I'm about to listen to that one first. And for whatever reason, when I saw the COVID I thought that, like.
Excuse me. I thought that that was going to be the girl one that everybody was talking about. Yeah.
On Twitter, I thought that was gonna be because, I mean, I thought that was gonna be the girl. And because everybody on Twitter was talking about there was an R and B one. So I went to that one first.
And I didn't even. I didn't even skip through the songs. Like, I sat there and I had patience and I listened to them, but I hated that I wasted an hour of my life.
Because.
No, I wasted an hour of my life.
[01:08:28] Speaker A: Those are my lines. People gonna say.
[01:08:29] Speaker B: I'm supposed to say that I tell the truth. Like, and the motherfuckers, they want me to be all the way this or all the way that. Like, I'm not, you know, this. Like, I'm going to say, I'm not biased. I'm going to tell the truth. That album will never fucking see me again.
[01:08:43] Speaker A: Maid of honor.
[01:08:43] Speaker B: Maid of honor will never see me again. I did like the Sexy Red song, though.
But that album, I'm never coming back to that. It made me feel like when I listened to Honestly, Nevermind.
[01:08:55] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:08:57] Speaker B: Because when I hear a Drake album dropping, I'm stopping my life.
I'm stopping my life. And like I said, I set my mood and do all these things. So by the time I got to habibi and habibti.
[01:09:10] Speaker A: There's a T in there, fool.
[01:09:11] Speaker B: Habibty. By the time I got to that one, I heard classic. I ran classic back at least 20 freaking times.
Like, I just kept starting over, you know, I'm an R and B girly, for real. So I just kept starting over and over and over. That shit was good.
So in the midst of me laying down and consuming this new music, I forgot that I have a radio show.
So I have to critique and take notes. And I can't be a fucking regular fan anymore. I mean, I'm proud to be here, don't get me wrong. But.
But we don't have the ability to consume music as fans anymore. We have to consume music as professionals or critique, you know, like to critique it and things like that as critics.
[01:09:56] Speaker A: And you have to listen for what your listeners might want to talk about or hear, you know?
[01:10:00] Speaker B: Yeah. So I made it my mission to not be on social media so that I don't. Cause I don't want to have anybody else's theories or think of, you know, things that are not that. Because somebody. Me and Avery was talking about it earlier.
Somebody said that the albums spell out him. And then Avery made a good point that. Well, it didn't even drop in that order for it to spell out him.
Mm.
You looking at it. Mm.
I don't wanna get on the radio and say, oh, my God, this n so crazy. Like, the album spell out him. Like, that's not even my thought. Like, but somebody else said it. But when they said it made so much sense. And when I said to Avery, he was like, yeah, but the albums didn't Even drop.
So I need to be off social media so I can have my own opinion.
[01:10:47] Speaker A: That's smart. That's a smart way to do it.
[01:10:49] Speaker B: But then it's pros and cons to it because you miss so much. So, like, you had to show me today all the Trump shit, you know? You know what I'm saying?
You had to show me that today. That's information that I needed to know. But I would have learned that on the timeline. And that honestly makes me feel different about my favorite rapper.
[01:11:07] Speaker A: Okay, we'll get to that.
[01:11:09] Speaker B: Okay, so make them remember.
It's a part where he ran the bar back and he said, hold on. Cause he knew he was talking so crazy. He knew he was talking so crazy. So I wanna get into the lyrics. You brought it up earlier. LeBron, please stop asking about what's going on with 23andMe. I'm a real nigga and he's not. It's in my DNA. I could have fell back like the married rapper, but we engaged. I told y' all I'm settled in my evil ways.
That scheme is crazy. 23 and me DNA. And then you touch on two friends. Pause. You touched on two niggas that you fell out with. LeBron. Well, I don't know if he fell out with J. Cole, but LeBron and
[01:11:50] Speaker A: J. Cole, we're assuming that.
[01:11:52] Speaker B: Yeah, we can assume it. That, you know, they don't fuck with each other or, you know, they not cool no more. But I thought that that shit was just so clever. And as I'm listening to certain records on there, most of the Make Them series, he sound like he on some battle rap shit. Like, that's some shit that a battle rapper would say. And that's what let me know how deep in his bag he is. And if we removed the venom from the album, we wouldn't have got that bar.
We wouldn't have even the other one. I forget what song it was, but he said I was Aiden Ross was streams way before Aiden Ross was streaming. That's fucking hard like that. He's doing some of his most craziest fucking rapping right now. Like on Iceman.
Another one that was hard to me is when he said.
He said, I'm down to put bills on they face.
No wonder why they ducking Drake. Bills on they face no wonder why they ducking Drake.
So shout out to Teandre. It was my homeboy. He told me. He said, google. Google. He said, Google. What's the. What did he say?
[01:12:51] Speaker A: It's the. That's what's called a duck bill.
[01:12:53] Speaker B: He said, google the duck bill, and it's called Drake.
That's crazy, bro. That's fucking crazy.
Another thing he said that I thought was hard. Okay? So this was another one that.
This totally went over my head. The AK one, okay? The AK bar. If they took out. If Drake took out the ak, maybe he'd be in jail just based off the name that it spells, which would make you have to go back to the previous bar to read it again or hear it again to see. You see how many times I had to just play it back so I, you know, so I can catch it.
What they say they just smelled.
I heard they got special places in hell for niggas joking about evil when they did it themselves. Obviously. Well, it's not obvious, but if you break it down and if it makes sense, if I remove the AK from Drake, it spells dream. Now, we know that it was a conversation that. Oh, you rapping about this with, you know, not like us, but you got Dr. Dre at the pop out with, you know, whatever situation that I don't want to talk about. You know what I'm saying? But regardless of who the characters is in the story, that bar was fucking crazy.
[01:14:07] Speaker A: Yeah. And then the bar before that, he mentioned. The reason why I picked up the Dre thing is because the bar before that, he mentioned Lucien and remember him. And remember when Lucien and Dr. Dre, they saw them at the awards together.
[01:14:20] Speaker B: Oh, no, I'm.
[01:14:22] Speaker A: Yeah. So there was like this thing where they were at the. At the Grammys and shit, and they was like. You saw. It was like Lucian and Dr. Dre and I know felt the way about that because it's like the head of UMG and Dr. Dre, like, and they celebrating Kendrick. It's like there's their artists, too. You know what I'm saying? Like, they're both their artists. Y' all are both. Both you are. There are his artists.
[01:14:42] Speaker B: You talking about. Drake and Lucian are both Lucian's artists.
[01:14:46] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:14:46] Speaker B: They're both under Universal T. Now. That just made the bar even crazier.
[01:14:50] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah.
[01:14:51] Speaker B: So one thing that I love about battle rap is they'll say shit. They'll say something in, I don't know, the second half of round two that make you have to go back to the top half of round two, you know what I'm saying? It's like it's a bar that's setting up. It's a whole scheme that's setting up for.
For another bar or Whatever. So I thought that was freaking clever.
This is why I'm saying he's doing some of his best rapping, you know, this is.
And again, I think that, yes, the battle probably did fuck him up for himself, but I feel like for the fans listening, like, internally, it fucked you up, right? But for the fans listening, would we have got this top tier rapping if you didn't go through all of that?
[01:15:36] Speaker A: No.
[01:15:36] Speaker B: You get what I'm saying? It's like, no, that N made you rap. Kendrick made that nigga rap.
[01:15:42] Speaker A: That nigga's in his full on Usher confessions back.
[01:15:44] Speaker B: Full on.
Full on. This might be the most real and most transparent version that we ever fucking got of him because he's letting us see him sweat.
Facts, the N letting us see him sweat.
Even naming the one song Ran to Atlanta, that's just a callback to the lyrics from Not Like Us.
Song was trash, by the way.
[01:16:06] Speaker A: I didn't say it. You said it.
[01:16:07] Speaker B: I did not like the song.
And I didn't think that it's like for you, for Future and Drake to reunite. I expected more. Yeah, I expected way more on the reunion. And I'm actually mad, and I hope that what I'm about to say is reality, because what I was finna say is I'm actually mad that that's what the leak was. Because it's like, so that's what I was waiting on, you know, when you and Charlamagne said the future's on the album, it's like, so this what I was. This what I was. I'm happy that shit didn't come out when y' all said it. I'm so happy it didn't come out when y' all said it. It's just like, if this what the fuck we was waiting on, then y' all could have kept that. To me, that was not a good job for them to give us what they gave us on what it's time to be alive. And all the other features that they done together, that was.
That seemed lazy.
[01:16:55] Speaker A: Even Life is Good was good.
[01:16:57] Speaker B: Yes. Yes. Yeah. And Too Sexy.
[01:17:00] Speaker A: Too sexy.
[01:17:01] Speaker B: Too sexy is crazy.
Y' all gave us too much fly shit for that. Like, I feel like y', all, you only gave us that so you can, you know, use the whole rant, you know, run to Atlanta thing, whatever. I don't know. But I think, like, the title itself was so clever because it's a call back to Not Like Us. I would have liked that to be utilized somewhere else on a better song. Oh, by the Way Future just tweeted me and Iceman back in.
Like, what'd he say? Yeah, back. Something he. He had tweeted.
Okay, so more of my notes. Did I say all of this?
Okay, I like Little Birdie, Little birdie, motherfucking bang Little Birdie. I love it. My only critique. It sounds like a Kodak Black reference song.
[01:17:47] Speaker A: Damn.
[01:17:48] Speaker B: Listen to it.
[01:17:49] Speaker A: If. I mean, I understand what you. I mean, I heard it, but I'm just saying. I understand what you're saying, but you know what? I ain't gonna lie. I slept on Kodak for a long time. Charlamagne been advocating for Kodak since the beginning. He's like, I'm telling you. Kodak. Kodak, Kodak. And I just. Kodak is not my. My steez. Like, of like, I couldn't. I don't. I wouldn't just throw the Kodak Black album on and just ride to it. That's not my thing.
But I have heard Kodak rapping before. Like, he didn't like that nigga.
[01:18:19] Speaker B: Kodak Black is hard.
[01:18:20] Speaker A: Yeah. That n. That nigga can rap.
[01:18:22] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:18:22] Speaker A: So that's why I said, damn. When. Cause I never thought about it like that.
[01:18:25] Speaker B: Yeah, no, if you. Now that I said that, if you listen to it again, like, it does sound like a. It sounds like a. It sounds like a reference track. Another thing that I wanted to commend him on.
What did I miss? So when. What did I miss? When we first heard it some months ago, I did not like it. When I re. Listened to it just now on the album, I like the song. So it was making me think. I'm like, dang, did I not listen to it in the right environment? You know, like, was I being too tough on, you know, too hard on the song back then? But Avery made a point. He said that when he listened to it, he can tell that there was some different production done.
He said that it sounds like. Like it was like cleaned up or something.
[01:19:05] Speaker A: Oh, they spruced it up.
[01:19:07] Speaker B: Yeah, they spruced it up.
[01:19:08] Speaker A: Oh, they put some soldier serum in that shit.
[01:19:11] Speaker B: Because I don't know if you remember how you felt about it when you first heard it, but I remember not liking it.
[01:19:16] Speaker A: It was very underwhelming.
[01:19:17] Speaker B: But now I like the shit.
[01:19:19] Speaker A: No, it was very. I didn't. You know what? I'mma go. So I'm glad you said that. Cause I have the original that I've been playing as a dj. So I'm gonna play em both back to back and see if they sound different.
[01:19:31] Speaker B: I like Back to back. I like that.
[01:19:33] Speaker A: Back to. I'm gonna play em both back to back.
[01:19:35] Speaker B: I like what you did right here.
[01:19:36] Speaker A: Jesus Christ.
[01:19:38] Speaker B: Okay, I made a list of the songs that I thought were like that were reminiscent of old Drake, which is Firm friends Make them Know and make them pay.
A bar that I liked on make them Pay. When he said.
So I just recently.
Excuse me. I just recently watched the Gilbert Arenas story on Netflix.
Well, it's not the Gilbert arena story.
[01:20:03] Speaker A: I know what you're talking about though.
[01:20:04] Speaker B: The guy who went to jail for the situation. So I actually was like this year years old when I found out about that whole, you know, that situation stuff. I had no clue about that. So obviously it stuck out to me when he said I done got my shit inside arenas like Gilbert Arenas. And that's just crazy. Cause if you ever been in any of these arenas, you know how tough security is. So to say I got my shit inside arenas like Gilbert Arenas and then you hear the story how Gilbert Arenas had all the goddamn guns on the bench in the locker room. Like that's just hard.
[01:20:33] Speaker A: He's a different type of guy.
[01:20:34] Speaker B: That's hard to me. But again, what I'm saying is the n rapping again, like I told I got it in my note. I had said it before I got to the note, but I was Aiden Ross with streams before Aiden Ross was streaming.
Now. Too hard for the radio.
I like too hard for the radio. And I know people was trying to be funny when they was talking about it on the timeline. Cause they like, oh, so he just did what Kendrick did. Made a hit, you know, like he made a hit. But he did give us moto a long time ago. So he kind of low key, been dipping into that side of hip hop culture.
[01:21:12] Speaker A: Yeah, they fuck with the motto, but I'm just saying, I still play the motto.
[01:21:15] Speaker B: He didn't do that because I don't think that he did that because he was trying to recreate a moment like Kendrick made with not like us. Because he's.
According to the timeline, he been stealing shit from the bae. So according to the timeline, you know. But I just wanted it to be a thing that like, no, we been got this type of song, you know, from him with I don't like the
[01:21:38] Speaker A: first half of it though. Like I like the second half.
[01:21:39] Speaker B: I like the second half better. I did not care for the first half. I didn't care for the first half.
[01:21:43] Speaker A: We could have did without that one.
[01:21:44] Speaker B: But people was trying to be funny when they put the fresh Prince theme song underneath. That shit sound hard.
[01:21:50] Speaker A: I downloaded that, motherfucker. Shout out to Spectre on Twitter. Hey, Spectre on Twitter. You be doing your big one, bro.
[01:21:55] Speaker B: Hey, shout out to. I liked it. I'm like. And I kind of liked it better.
Yeah, I kind of liked it better.
[01:22:03] Speaker A: I definitely downloaded that one.
[01:22:04] Speaker B: Yeah, I would play that.
[01:22:05] Speaker A: Yeah, no, I'm gonna run that one.
The.
What you call it? It was another one that I heard, too.
It wasn't Spectre who did it.
I forgot. I don't remember.
[01:22:16] Speaker B: It was from this album.
[01:22:16] Speaker A: Yeah, it was too hard for the radio, but they put another beat under it.
But, yeah, Spectre on Twitter, you be going crazy, bro.
[01:22:22] Speaker B: Yeah, I like that one. That was so good. And I love when people just have the creative mind to even go there, because when I'm listening to the song, my mind didn't go to like, oh, I wonder what this sound like? You know, like, if you switch it up or something like that. Like, when people have that mindset and are able to do that, it's almost like it's like it's God really talking through you or something. Because how did you come up with that?
Where he said he was from?
[01:22:50] Speaker A: Who, Drake?
[01:22:51] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:22:52] Speaker A: Toronto.
[01:22:53] Speaker B: No, too hard for the radio.
[01:22:55] Speaker A: Oh. He said he got niggas from the yacht going crazy.
[01:22:58] Speaker B: I thought he said, I put that on Cedars.
[01:23:01] Speaker A: He was saying a bunch of shit. But that's because the homie Jay aunt.
[01:23:05] Speaker B: So that has nothing to do with the homie Jay Seon.
[01:23:08] Speaker A: No, Sita's is some Bay Area shit.
[01:23:10] Speaker B: Okay, okay.
Cause when I tweeted it, niggas was in my comments saying, blame game.
[01:23:15] Speaker A: No, no, no, no. So when in. So Bay Area lingo is like, I put that on sitas. It's like mamacitas. Like mamas. Like, I put that on my mama. Like when you.
[01:23:23] Speaker B: Oh, like on mamas.
[01:23:24] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:23:25] Speaker B: Oh.
[01:23:25] Speaker A: So it's like when you hear BAE niggas like, oh, my mama, though, bruh. Like, it's like on sitas. Like, that's what. That's what that. It's some real basic.
[01:23:33] Speaker B: But can you agree that the tone he said it in was, I put that on Cedars.
[01:23:37] Speaker A: Yeah, it sound kind of like the.
[01:23:39] Speaker B: Exactly.
[01:23:39] Speaker A: No, it sound like the nigga from Nemesis.
[01:23:44] Speaker B: The Crip.
[01:23:45] Speaker A: What'd he say?
[01:23:46] Speaker B: It did not sound like the nigga from Nemesis. It sounded like game.
[01:23:49] Speaker A: That nigga said what that nigga say
[01:23:52] Speaker B: on the Dead homies.
[01:23:53] Speaker A: On the Dead homies.
Oh, shit.
[01:23:58] Speaker B: But nah, overall. Oh, the other thing I Didn't. That I was looking forward to. And thank God for DJ Head, because now I have those two leaks. I thought those were gonna be on the album.
[01:24:10] Speaker A: Those two songs that I sent me.
[01:24:11] Speaker B: Those two songs that you sent me, I thought, I like those songs a lot.
So, yeah. So literally, when you sent it to me, like, obviously I listened to it, but I was like, ooh, I'm about to really be able to have it in my. You know, in my Apple music or whatever. And I'm not able to have it in my Apple music because, well, I could put it in there, but it's not on the official album.
So what I did was, since he gave us three albums, one album I totally will never fuck with again in my life. I made a playlist of Habiti and Iceman combined, and then I just removed all the songs that I skipped when I was listening to it.
[01:24:48] Speaker A: Okay, how many tracks?
[01:24:50] Speaker B: Motherfucking 22 album fire.
[01:24:52] Speaker A: 22 tracks.
[01:24:54] Speaker B: My playlist, Fire.
[01:24:55] Speaker A: The views verified version of the Views
[01:24:58] Speaker B: verified version of Iceman.
[01:25:00] Speaker A: Okay.
[01:25:00] Speaker B: Yes. Because I don't know.
Overall, I'm just happy that I feel like he's listening.
I feel like he's listening. Maybe some other shit that he could work on later on, but for the most part. What did we ask? We asked him to rap.
[01:25:17] Speaker A: He was rapping.
[01:25:18] Speaker B: He was rapping. Certain people was saying, I don't wanna hear all that girl shit. So he made some girl shit for the girls, you know, and then obviously, you gotta do what you gotta do for streams and all that stuff with the international thing, so. I understand that, but can you tell me this? Cause I know you said you made some phone calls, and I just wanna know if this is true.
There's a theory that he dropped three albums to get out of his deal.
[01:25:43] Speaker A: I didn't call. I didn't. So the call I made was just to find out about the Janis record, because that's a song that's being heavily added to radio stations across the country. And I just wanted to know what was going on with that. So I don't know about.
I do know about the speculation about him trying to get out of his deal. I don't have any intel on that. I could call and ask, but I wasn't that invested. I don't really care. Like, all he gonna do is if he. If he do get out of his deal, he has a lot of money waiting on him on the other side of that, especially if he decides to go independent and do some private equity shit where it's like, you know, a private equity or a VC firm. I don't know if people are familiar with these, but like venture capitalists or like, for instance, people been selling their catalog, their music catalog, right? And you'll see, like, Justin Bieber got $250 million in whatever the number is.
So there are people who probably would be willing to do business with him on that level and give him a billion dollars for X amount or for whatever it is that he's looking to get for music catalog, future Music, whatever the case, licensing, whatever the case may be. So I don't have any official word, but it would make business sense for him to do that. One, because he's beefing with the label.
They've been in litigation.
Two, because he don't really fuck with, like, that relationship's been severed. Like Universal with Universal. Like, I can't see them coexisting amicably anymore.
Three, because he want his money. I understand that this past two years been a little quiet for him.
He's been a lot of misses.
I don't remember the official tally, but I saw a list of all the songs he's dropped since 2024, and it's been a lot of songs, like, including a whole album with Party Next Door.
So nothing has really stuck in typical Drake. Like, we had no Kia, but nothing has really stuck in typical Drake fashion. Right? So I could see, you know, there being him being incentivized to want to, like, get out of that and do something new with himself. Makes perfect sense to me.
[01:27:46] Speaker B: Do you think that would be a good move for him to leave?
[01:27:49] Speaker A: Okay, so I have two things to say about that. One is, I seen speculation. I'm not. I've seen conversations from various huge people saying that Drake going independent would ruin the music industry. I don't think so. I think Drake going independent would fuck with him if he hasn't been paying attention this entire time.
And I say that not as a Drake dig, but as an artist dig. I personally know and have consulted with artists from LA who don't know what the fuck they're doing, but they have a label or they have an independent. I'm independent. Yeah, but you don't know what to do with your independence. Go sign to them people, because you don't know what you're doing.
I don't know if Drake's been in the system his whole time. He started with cash money, stunning them. Know what the fuck they doing when it comes to selling records.
So if he were to go independent, it would be Great. Because he can. Yeah, he probably has the capital and the means to hire the right people to who knows what they're doing. But if he owns some rough shit, I think it's gonna be bad for him.
[01:28:53] Speaker B: Okay, okay, okay.
[01:28:54] Speaker A: Like I'm finna just do it to just do it. My. I'm everybody gonna fuck with me. I'm gonna just put my shit out.
[01:29:00] Speaker B: Eh?
[01:29:01] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? Every time people have done that, the arrogance is where you kind of. The ego, it ruins everybody. In my humble opinion. And that's not even just him. Everybody in general. I think when you feel like you bigger than the program, you find out you're not bigger than the program. This program been running, it's gonna keep running with or without you.
So that's part one, part two.
I don't necessarily. It would be smart for him to go independent from a monetary standpoint, but how much fucking money do you need? Not saying. I'm not counting his pockets, but it's like. Let's say he does go independent.
You perceivably will get, let's say, 80 cents out of every dollar.
Actually, no, that's not true. He probably would get. He probably get a 5% deal on a distribution. So let's say out of every dollar, he will make 90 cents. 90 to 95 cents. It would be incredibly lucrative for him to do that. However, you still have to work records and I don't know.
[01:29:58] Speaker B: And that's what you need the label for.
[01:30:00] Speaker A: You need people to do the thing. You know what I mean? Like, we get to show up certain artists just like we do. We're personalities. We get to show up to the Sirius radio station and there's lights on and yeah, we bring our equipment with our laptops, but there's shit here.
Avery's in there running the board like we. So that's.
[01:30:18] Speaker B: It couldn't just be me and you.
[01:30:20] Speaker A: Correct. Nay, Irene. Like, we have a team. So I don't think people fall in love with the ideology of independence, but they don't fully understand what that means. You have. Fuck the music. You have to run a business.
And so that to me, I don't know if, yes, he can hire the people, but if they do it, just. I'm finna just do it on me. To me, that's a mistake.
[01:30:41] Speaker B: Okay. Okay.
And I'm glad you brought that up. I'm glad you said that. What I wanna know is now, I know you said you don't agree with this argument, but you said that people feel like if he leaves the label, it will ruin the industry, the music industry.
I know you don't agree with that, but what's their argument with that?
[01:31:06] Speaker A: The argument, to me, the argument is if Drake can go independent, then what's to stop everybody else from being like, I'm finna go independent and do basically monkey see, monkey do. Like if, oh well, Drake did it, I'm finna go do it.
We've had these conversations before, everybody. What I can do and what you can do is two different things. You know what I'm saying? Like, we just talked to an actor. He was like, man, I just trying some shit and it worked. And I got on tv. And that's not everyone.
[01:31:28] Speaker B: That don't work for everybody.
[01:31:29] Speaker A: That don't work for everybody, bro. Like, it's a lot of people that put in work, you know what I mean? Like you, me and Silas were talking about our manager. Me and Silas were talking about you specifically. Right? You know how hard it is to find a fucking Gena views?
[01:31:42] Speaker B: I don't know.
[01:31:43] Speaker A: Okay, Let me tell you, my whole
[01:31:44] Speaker B: friend group is like me.
[01:31:45] Speaker A: But no, let me tell you how hard it is, okay? You can host, you can do production, you can prep, you can edit, you do edit, you can do setup, you can shoot.
That's not normal. You can, you break down rap lyrics. You're into the culture, you, you can, you study, you, you are like fully ingrained into the culture. That's not normal. That's completely abnormal.
[01:32:10] Speaker B: Thank you. By the way.
[01:32:11] Speaker A: For sure. For somebody to possess all of those skills. Drake possesses the same talent. He can sing, he can rap, he can act, he can do all these multifaceted things. That's a once, that's a one in a lifetime generation. Drake is a one in a lifetime generational talent, right? The big three. Cole is a one in a generation. Like dot, same thing, right? Jay Z. There's a reason why these people exist in the upper hemisphere of what they do.
So him leaving would then signal to other people, be like, I could do what he do. No, you can't, champ.
You know what I'm saying?
And the problem is, and just being honest, a lot of people haven't had self actualization and realizing their strengths and their weaknesses, what they're good at. And ego kicks in, like, I could do it too.
Probably not, bro. Probably not.
People have their thoughts on tde. TDE and QC are two of the greatest labels to come out in the last. I don't know, I mean, I'm sorry, I'm Leaving, we had one QC tde generation. Now three of the most successful labels in the last decade independently, and it's not even close. Independent not meaning they don't have backing. I'm talking about having artists breaking multiple artists. Number one records, charts, top 40, Billboard record, all the shit you're not.
How many generation nouns do we get versus not we know, Hella niggas with labels. That's my point. It's like, yeah, in theory, you can do anything and be anything you want, but most of the time it doesn't work out for you. So their argument is, if Drake were to leave and be like, I'm gonna just take my ball and do this, then it would signal to every other artist, I'm finna do what he doing. And it would ruin the structure that we have set up for us to get this music and this art.
[01:34:01] Speaker B: Okay, another question I have.
So just scoop me, because obviously I don't know nothing about labels and stuff.
Is there another Universal that he can go to?
[01:34:11] Speaker A: Yeah, there's three major labels.
So umg, Universal Music Group is under that. They have a bunch of them. Universal Republic, Interstate, Def Jam. Exactly. So UMG is one. The other one will be Sony, and then the third one will be Warner. And then under Warner is like Atlantic Records and shit like that. So you have those three majors and then you have. I consider Empire now a major label too, because they're international. They doing Afrobeats. Like, Empire's just as big as other
[01:34:39] Speaker B: labels, and they're not with Sony or Universal or.
[01:34:43] Speaker A: So now you have four, in my humble opinion.
[01:34:45] Speaker B: Okay.
[01:34:46] Speaker A: You have umg, Sony, Warner and Empire.
[01:34:50] Speaker B: Okay, okay. Cause I was always thinking the way that Universal is structured this entire time, I thought, like, how you just named the other three. I thought everybody was under Universal so
[01:35:03] Speaker A: he didn't have nowhere to go.
[01:35:04] Speaker B: Yeah, that's what I thought. I literally, like, you know, obviously, like, when the lawsuit and stuff happened in my mind from the way. And obviously this is lack of knowledge, but I thought that Universal worked as the parents of every single label, not just Def Jam and what is it? Def Jam island and, you know, Interscope and things like that.
[01:35:24] Speaker A: So OVO Sound is partnered with one of those labels. It was Sony. Let me see who it is now.
So.
Oh. It was distributed through Warner up until 2022.
[01:35:40] Speaker B: So he did already do business with.
[01:35:42] Speaker A: Yeah, okay.
[01:35:43] Speaker B: Okay.
[01:35:44] Speaker A: So the label operated as a subsidiary of a Warner music group until 2022, after which it became an independent label. So OVO Sound is his own thing now.
[01:35:51] Speaker B: Okay, so another thing that I guess is this contradiction contra.
What's the right word?
[01:35:58] Speaker A: Contradictory of us.
[01:36:01] Speaker B: It's contradictory of us because we have been ranting and raving on this radio about how we love when companies do the whole social media back and forth, like Wendy's and Fridays and, you know, all of those things like that. Applebee's and stuff like that.
I thought the White House promo was very tasteless.
[01:36:22] Speaker A: That shit was crazy.
[01:36:24] Speaker B: I thought that was very tasteless.
Just seeing the first. The album didn't even have a chain on it.
Why did y' all throw a chain on a glove? Like, niggas don't even do that.
Niggas don't even hold they chains like that. Like.
Like, who holds their chain like that? Like, and then the chain says that. Like, I don't know. I just thought that that shit was just. I thought that was corny. Like, and it's like, I don't. We don't need y' all getting in nigga shit.
[01:36:56] Speaker A: Well, first of all, the White House is on nigga shit.
[01:36:59] Speaker B: But that's what I'm saying. Like, stay out of the nigga business. Like, what? Like, what are you doing? Like. And it's like, this will. I don't think this is taste. This is tasteful in any way, shape or form, no matter who's in office. But if there was a nigga in office, then I'd be like, oh, okay. Like, you know, the White House is. You know, they showing love. And it's like, is this the first time in history that we seen some shit like this?
This is ghetto as fuck.
This is some ghetto shit.
[01:37:29] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:37:29] Speaker B: Yeah. This is very fucking ghetto.
[01:37:31] Speaker A: Trump walking. I mean, okay, first of all, what Gene is talking about is these official promos that went out and basically Trump calling himself the Iceman. These are from an official White House government accounts. They're using Iceman as the soundscape for Donald Trump and his campaigns. And especially with the ICE raids, it's people being deported, locked up, mistreated, people's rights being violated with this shit. So that's what Gene is talking about.
[01:37:57] Speaker B: You watched how that video just teared me up.
[01:37:59] Speaker A: Yeah. It fucked you up. I didn't know you didn't. I didn't know you hadn't seen it.
[01:38:02] Speaker B: No, bro, that's. Fuck. That actually hurts my fucking feelings. That, like, why?
Because obviously the conversation. Shout out to Rosecrans Big. Cause he was the one who, like, he had tweeted some shit, and it came to my, like, brought us to my Attention. He said this is when we were getting the promo for Iceman. He said this is very tone deaf of Drake to name his album Iceman. While we, you know, while everything is going on with ice. But it kind of felt like, I mean, I'm not being deported or anything, but to me it felt like just a slap in the face for everything that people are experiencing right now. And that a rapper can be used as a weapon against the country.
Like your album is called Iceman. And then the president is using this shit. Like while we talking about what the fuck DJ Khaled is doing. That's the denouncing I'm looking for.
What do you. You got, you have Hispanic. You have Hispanic fans who are victims of ice. You know, like, I can't even give you a professional reaction to it because I'm really trying not to cry. Cause I can't believe that a rapper would even participate in something like that when these are the. These are your fucking fans, bro.
[01:39:20] Speaker A: Like, I think, I think. Okay, so.
[01:39:22] Speaker B: Cause it's not just Hispanics that are being deported.
[01:39:24] Speaker A: No, it's not.
[01:39:25] Speaker B: You know, so it's like there are people affected all around the world with this.
And I don't know, that's just.
That shit is fucked up to me.
[01:39:34] Speaker A: So the thing about. So I'll shoot him some bail on this. I think that the project was called that prior to the Ice Rays and stuff happening.
[01:39:41] Speaker B: Can I pause you real quick? Because I remember when we thought that he was changing the album.
[01:39:46] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:39:47] Speaker B: And I don't. And I didn't store it in my long term memory to be able to talk about it once the album dropped. But I remember where. And I don't know what the potential thing was called or anything like that, but I remember there was conversations on the timeline off of. Based off of that he had posted and we assumed that the album title was gonna be changed.
[01:40:05] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:40:06] Speaker B: So it's like somebody said it to you.
[01:40:09] Speaker A: No.
[01:40:09] Speaker B: Yeah, but that's where I said earlier, like, dang, he actually listening to us because we asked him to rap. We like the R and B shit. We didn't want the international stuff. Like I feel like you listening to us. And remember I said there's one thing though.
That's one of the things for me.
[01:40:24] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:40:24] Speaker B: Like I don't. Go ahead. I didn't mean to cut you off.
[01:40:27] Speaker A: I apologize. It's cool. So again, shooting some bill. I think that that was a product. We thought he was going to change the name of the album at one point or another. Because of the cultural sensitivities that were happening across the country.
To be fair, he does have fans that are from all across different nationalities.
Now, to be fair, Drake has never taken a stance on anything outside of him.
[01:40:53] Speaker B: He called out Khaled for not taking the stance.
[01:40:56] Speaker A: Exactly.
[01:40:56] Speaker B: So that's what.
That's not my only problem. That's another one of my problems on there. Is that. So you are cultured. You are aware of what's happening. You know how, like, Lil Wayne get on. He do an interview. He don't know. He don't even know the city on fire.
[01:41:13] Speaker A: He don't know what's going on.
[01:41:15] Speaker B: He said he didn't even know Drake and Kendrick was beefing.
So I'm like, all right.
I mean, I don't understand it. But, you know, it's like, I do kind of see, like, where celebrities, they kind of, like, be so out the loop of things. So it's like. But for you to call Khaled out on that, that mean that you are 100% aware of what's going on right now.
[01:41:35] Speaker A: He knows what's going on.
Again, that to me, one believing bigger than the program. That's what I think. Or it's so. And we was talking about this. I was talking with Avery before, but it's like, to me, it's not about taking a stand. Take a stand on not taking a stand. Stand on that.
[01:41:53] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:41:53] Speaker A: Hey, I don't get involved in that shit. Young thug did it on the red carpet. Hey, bro, I'm talking. I'm fucking with some bitches. I'm getting fly. Fuck all that politics.
[01:42:02] Speaker B: He said, I ain't in it.
[01:42:03] Speaker A: Okay, That's a stance.
[01:42:05] Speaker B: That's a stance.
[01:42:05] Speaker A: That's a stance.
[01:42:06] Speaker B: And that's some real shit. Because you didn't sit up there and lie and make up nothing. Like, oh, well, I believe this. And you didn't give no PR with response is, I don't even fuck with none of that.
[01:42:15] Speaker A: Yeah, Birdman told me the same thing. He said it on camera so I can repeat it.
That story I told when I was on Shout out to Don Cannon and Tomorrow, I meant to mention them, too. They've been promoting me. I did a thing with them. But that was a true story. When I was sitting on Birdman's bus, he said that. And I didn't bring that up because that wasn't what we were talking about. But Birdman said that to me when this is during Obama campaign, the first one, and he was like, man, they was like. And on camera, he's like, man, I ain't voting.
And they were like, why? Like, you know, he was like, bro. He's like, it don't matter who in that building. People don't do nothing for my people. I do shit for my people. I go back to New Orleans and make sure that people got food and clothes and shoes and backpacks and shit. They don't fuck with us. So it don't matter who in that building. So I don't vote for him. To me, although I disagree with him. It made sense from his perspective. Yeah, you could take that stance. Hey, bro, I got fans from everywhere. Like, I'm, you know, I'm not taking a stance on nothing political or take a stance on, hey, I fuck with Trump and I. And I fuck with whoever's not. Whoever don't fuck with Trump.
That's what you're looking for. Just the. Just the acknowledgement of whatever it is. Cool.
Don't think you're ever gonna get it because we've never gotten a stance taken ever, from him ever or about anything. Yeah, we don't. I don't know how he feels about anything other than how his friends treat him or mistreat him. That's all I know.
And about the girls and shit. Cool.
[01:43:40] Speaker B: We gotta touch on. Shout out to Jeremy Heck.
[01:43:43] Speaker A: Jeremy Heck.
[01:43:44] Speaker B: Jeremy Heck.
[01:43:44] Speaker A: Let's give it up for Jeremy Heck.
[01:43:46] Speaker B: Shout out to Jeremy Heck.
[01:43:47] Speaker A: Because people be playing with Jeremy like he, like, you know, like, he ain't pushover like that.
[01:43:52] Speaker B: Well, I told you he was a wigger.
I been saying he's a wigger and y'. All. I ain't. No, that's a wigger. Shout to Jeremy. He had on. I don't know where did he get that? Effective immediately. Hoodie at.
[01:44:06] Speaker A: I think they had got him from when we did the live shows.
[01:44:09] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Okay. Oh, he won it.
[01:44:11] Speaker A: I think he was. I think we got him during the live shows or whatever.
So. Jeremy. Okay, so let's backtrack a little bit.
[01:44:17] Speaker B: Yeah, Irene. Like, here we go.
[01:44:22] Speaker A: Yeah, here we go.
So there's a human.
A streamer by the name of DJ Akademi.
Don't know if that. If he's a DJ like that. Never heard of that being a thing, but a dj academics. That's the name here.
Supposedly says something to the homie. Jeremy Heck.
[01:44:41] Speaker B: He said. That's the name here.
He said, I would hate to get into it with a nigga like you, boy.
[01:44:48] Speaker A: Why?
[01:44:49] Speaker B: Because just finish said, well, that's the name here.
[01:44:55] Speaker A: So he basically Said, so Jeremy Hecht made a tweet about Drake. Like, hey, bro, I don't know if you know, but the tramp campaign is like, using you as propaganda. They getting clout, you know what I'm saying? Like, you want to address this type shit. Jeremy called it out. Cool academics, then tweets Jeremy Heck and says, shut your bitch ass up.
Basically goes in on Jeremy.
[01:45:23] Speaker B: No, read the tweet.
[01:45:24] Speaker A: I don't want to read the tweet.
[01:45:26] Speaker B: You got viewers who ain't seen this tweet.
[01:45:29] Speaker A: You right. All right, let me pull it.
[01:45:30] Speaker B: And we're not gonna edit it in.
[01:45:32] Speaker A: We're not gonna edit it in either.
Here we go. Let me see. Here's the tweet.
The tweet says, shut your ass up. Talking about a rapper need to quote, unquote, denounce. Free promo from the White House. I'm so glad like you is out of here. Ain't no denouncing.
Take that woke shit back to the fucking dot era. It's Iceman season. That's what. So I'm read. Jeremy Hex tweet. He said the White House has now made two promos using Drake's album, which he hasn't announced yet, but they thought we were crazy for saying Iceman is a tone deaf album title in this climate, which Jeremy's not wrong. That was the conversation.
Jeremy actually said it. You know what I'm saying? Like, he basically said what you just said. Like, hey, bro, this is what's going on. Jeremy didn't even say anything to academics, nor did he say anything disrespectful. Academics jumps out the window and, you know, disrespects Jeremy Heck.
So why you looking like that?
[01:46:31] Speaker B: Okay, I understand when people have separate POVs of things.
So there's a world that exists where his POV is. This has nothing to do with disrespecting the country and ice and things like that. Whereas Jeremy's POV is they're using you against.
They're using you against. The people trying to make it seem like this album is like a. I don't want to say the soundtrack for the Ice era, but for lack of better terms, the soundtrack for the Ice era. For you to double down and comedy and say, fuck all that woke shit, it's Iceman season is crazy to me.
[01:47:16] Speaker A: I think you're crazy because you expect intelligent takes from this person.
[01:47:21] Speaker B: I didn't say I expected intelligent take. I said it was crazy that you would double down on saying, this is Iceman era, where Jeremy's argument is this is a. You get what I'm saying? Like that this is a. Okay, continue.
So I'm learning all this shit in real time. So this is all fucking me up right now. Like, I haven't even had enough time to dissect.
[01:47:43] Speaker A: Process all.
[01:47:44] Speaker B: Yeah, okay. I mean, yes, that's the right word. Process all of this.
[01:47:47] Speaker A: Okay. So Jeremy then posted a video basically breaking everything down. And it was a great video. Should I play it?
Sure, I'll play a video.
[01:47:57] Speaker B: How long is it?
[01:47:58] Speaker A: It's not that long. It's only like a minute. But I'm playing this for the people who haven't heard it. And you'll just be hearing the audio if you want.
[01:48:03] Speaker C: On podcast, DJ Academics took some time off from scarfing down cheetos or gargling on his favorite rappers meat to reply to my tweet that now has over 2 million views. I'm gonna get back to act in about 20 seconds, but let me back up first. When Drake's Iceman album dropped, the White House posted this. Then a couple days later, they posted this video calling Trump the Ice Iceman. So I tweeted this. White House has now made two promos using Drake's album, which he hasn't denounced yet. But they thought we were crazy for saying Iceman is a tone deaf album title in this climate. Academics responded super rationally with this. Now, I wasn't shocked that AK was triggered. He has been caping for his daddy for years. And not only that, but I did some digging. I have some sources too, act. And I know that you're getting paid by the head of Truth Social. So I know what you jump so quickly and aggressively on that tweet. And I know where your opinion's coming from. I also know that your opinion on music isn't from you either, because you're getting paid by every label. But maybe that's for another video. But this wasn't just about them using a song. When you align yourself with people like this or this or this and call your album this, when this is happening with an album cover that has this sign that also kind of looks like this sign, you can't be shocked when they do this.
[01:49:15] Speaker A: I don't. So the gist of what Jeremy is saying is like, hey, bro, like, I don't think you realize what's going on. He also said that he doesn't think that act is using the word woke. Right? Because woke is applied to black people, you know, et cetera. So I just thought it was a
[01:49:32] Speaker B: great that's what's fucking me up the double down and like, the youth, like.
[01:49:40] Speaker A: So shout out to Jeremy Heck for wearing an effective media hoodie.
[01:49:43] Speaker B: Number one. Yes. Thank you, Jeremy.
[01:49:45] Speaker A: But shout out to Jeremy Heck for intelligent takes. And
[01:49:51] Speaker B: that was a read.
[01:49:52] Speaker A: Yeah, that's what it's called.
[01:49:55] Speaker B: He clocked that T. It was a clock. Yeah. Jeremy Hecht clocked that T.
[01:50:01] Speaker A: So, yeah, Jeremy did good.
I thought it was a great breakdown of everything that happened. It went crazy viral. It's people in the comments that you wouldn't believe that. That's amazing. So make sure you go follow Jeremy Hecht. Great host, media content creator, journalist at uprockshiphop dx.
[01:50:21] Speaker B: Shout out to Jeremy. Y' all gotta bring back that bigger picture.
[01:50:24] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't know what's up with that. You know what's crazy is I'm not really tripping. Yeah, well, I mean, we just gotta have Jeremy pull up, you know, like once. Like once every.
[01:50:35] Speaker B: I thought he was trying to be a third seat when he put that hoodie on.
[01:50:38] Speaker A: We gotta have Jeremy pull up, like, Jeremy.
[01:50:40] Speaker B: Jeremy, try to come over here and get in that other chair.
[01:50:44] Speaker A: Yeah, we got Jeremy pull up like, once a quarter or something.
[01:50:47] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:50:47] Speaker A: You know.
[01:50:48] Speaker B: Yeah, I like Jeremy.
[01:50:49] Speaker A: Shout out to Hecht.
[01:50:50] Speaker B: Enough Drake talk.
[01:50:52] Speaker A: I'm cool.
Oh, I did want to mention this last Drake thing.
[01:50:56] Speaker B: Okay.
[01:50:57] Speaker A: Where is it at?
Where is it at?
I was going to point out which songs are leading.
I don't know what I did with my chart, but basically I like the Billboards. Yeah. So Drake dominated, like, the top, all Apple shit. Right. But that's different than the general consumers. The general consumers would be indicative of, like, radio listeners. Not even us. I'm talking about, like, terrestrial FM radio. Right. And so there's a conflict between what songs people should be playing. I mean, what songs people want to hear on the radio. So what's Gina V?
[01:51:38] Speaker B: Oh, that's why you tweeted that.
[01:51:39] Speaker A: Yeah, literally, I would, like. People think I'd be being funny. I'm like, contrary to popular belief, I still have a fucking job to do.
[01:51:45] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:51:46] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? So it's like, what songs do you niggas want to hear? So Gena Views, pick two songs for
[01:51:51] Speaker B: the radio that I like or that my professional mind needs to be your professional.
[01:51:56] Speaker A: What everybody wants to hear across the country at the same time.
[01:52:02] Speaker B: I don't want to hear the shit that's on the radio, though.
Like, the radio forces to hear what's on the radio. But if I If, like, if. Okay, if I was a DJ and I had to pick a song, it's definitely gonna be too hard for the radio and Little Birdie.
[01:52:15] Speaker A: Okay. Too hard for the radio and Little Birdie.
[01:52:17] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:52:17] Speaker A: Okay, so the consensus right now is too hard for the radio west of Texas, and then east of Texas, it'll be Janus stfu. And then what's the other one?
What's the other one?
Damn.
I don't. I think it's. Oh, it is. It's Lil Birdie. So It's Lil Birdie.
[01:52:47] Speaker B: Y' all might need to get me a job over there, then.
[01:52:49] Speaker A: It's Lil.
[01:52:50] Speaker B: I'm just saying.
[01:52:51] Speaker A: It's Lil Birdie, Janice, stfu and Too Hard for the radio. So let us know which ones you want to hear on the fucking radio.
[01:52:59] Speaker B: And what is this based off of? Is this based off what? A poll or. This is based off what people are. Was already been played and people didn't leave the radio station. They kept listening to the radio when the song was on.
[01:53:10] Speaker A: Okay, so brief, brief history lesson on how this works real quick is before, Remember back in the day, we loved Nelly, Ludacris, our millennial shit, right? You would hear the song and it would be the song be massive before we get the album. Now, they put the album out and they see what people are fucking with, and then they proceed to push a record, quote, unquote.
[01:53:31] Speaker B: They pull that from the album. Listen.
[01:53:33] Speaker A: Yes. So based on the streams and how the conversations around records and how they're performing. So right now, where's Republic Records? Here we go.
Actually, I could show this if you want. So that way people be like. So people could see it in real. In 4K.
This is what. This is what it looks like when a label is pushing a song.
[01:53:53] Speaker B: Okay?
[01:53:55] Speaker A: So for the cameras, I mean, for the people that's watching at home, when the label's pushing a record, this is what it looks like. This is the email that I get, okay? It says, republic Records presents Drake Too Hard for the Radio and janiceftfu Impacting. Now, impacting means that they're aggressively and literally talking to radio stations. Hey, these are the two records we are supporting you to play right now. You can play other shit, but these are the ones we're focusing on. We call them Focus Records. So those are the two.
[01:54:23] Speaker B: I wanna make sure I understand this, right? Cause I'm gonna repeat this and act like I already knew this on my own, not like you just taught me something.
So the label goes to see what's the most Listened to songs or the songs that people are messing with from the album. And then they reach out to the radio stations and say, these are the two songs that people like. These are the ones that we want you to highlight. But you can still do what y' all want to do. But make sure these are priority correct. Got it.
[01:54:45] Speaker A: That's exactly how it works.
[01:54:46] Speaker B: Okay?
[01:54:47] Speaker A: Nowadays, that's how it works. Before it would. You would get the singles and they would just push the single down your throat until it's a hit record. Then they would drop the album.
But now it's too much music, too
[01:54:57] Speaker B: much time going past, which makes so much sense because.
So I know you didn't have a log last week, but when I did my show, we played Drake every single hour, and those songs were the songs that were played. Now I came in and switched one out for my favorite one.
[01:55:14] Speaker A: Well, I don't know if you could do that, but.
[01:55:16] Speaker B: Okay, I did.
Was abused. Verified. Classic.
[01:55:19] Speaker A: Okay, Okay.
[01:55:20] Speaker B: I said, okay, we playing Drake, everybody. Every hour on my show. I need classic on there.
I damn near wanted to go back to all the other albums. Like, I wanted to get some time stamp breakers up in there too.
That's what I had wanted. Like, can I get some? Give me. I Literally every break, I'm like, welcome to the Drake show.
This the Drake show. We draking and driving.
[01:55:43] Speaker A: Draking and driving is crazy.
[01:55:44] Speaker B: Y' all remember that?
[01:55:45] Speaker A: Yeah, I do.
[01:55:45] Speaker B: We drinking and driving.
Okay, so before we get up out of here, I came across a video on my social media feed. Instagram, to be exact. And when I just clicked the link, it actually does not exist anymore. So I have to explain it to you. Okay, so alleged. Now I have to say alleged because the link is not here.
A tenant caught his landlord having sex in the tenant's home because there was a camera in the room where the landlord was engaging in coitus.
[01:56:26] Speaker A: Coitus. There we go. Talk about it, Gina. Views.
[01:56:29] Speaker B: Yeah.
So since we don't have any information now. Cause the link is going. I just want to know what are your thoughts on. Obviously, you are the landlord. You own your home.
But in a scenario where you are renting.
[01:56:43] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:56:43] Speaker B: If you looked at your ring and
[01:56:45] Speaker A: I saw my landlord fucking in my house. Yes, it's an issue. I mean, where is he fucking.
[01:56:51] Speaker B: It's in your fucking house. I don't care if he fucking on a step.
[01:56:55] Speaker A: Cause no, it depends on how much murder happens.
[01:56:58] Speaker B: Oh. Oh, you worried about killing him? I'm trying to buy up the block.
[01:57:02] Speaker A: Well, see, so who is he fucking?
[01:57:05] Speaker B: I don't care he was fucking. I don't care if he was fucking himself.
[01:57:08] Speaker A: Okay, Okay.
[01:57:08] Speaker B: I don't care if he was jacking off.
[01:57:10] Speaker A: Cause you didn't clarify.
[01:57:11] Speaker B: So why is you in my house?
Fuck the fucking.
Why are you in my house?
Well, look, you talking about what in there? Why are you in. I don't even like maintenance in my shit when I'm not there.
[01:57:24] Speaker A: Okay, the reason why I'm asking is because I need to know. Cause it wasn't clear, like, is he fucking my girl? Or like, what's going.
[01:57:32] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, we don't have no information.
[01:57:33] Speaker A: That's my point.
[01:57:34] Speaker B: No, the link expired. We don't have no information.
[01:57:35] Speaker A: Okay. All right. So he just in there fucking a girl.
[01:57:37] Speaker B: All you open.
[01:57:39] Speaker A: I'm suing everybody.

[01:57:41] Speaker A: Okay, bet. Cause when at first you described the situation, I'm like, he fucking my girl in my house on my ring camera.
[01:57:46] Speaker B: That's why you talking about the murder.

[02:05:20] Speaker B: You was 20 though?
[02:05:21] Speaker A: Well, mom,
[02:05:24] Speaker B: but it's kind of like you kind of expect some to be going on because it's 20, so it's not.
[02:05:29] Speaker A: You talking about younger?
[02:05:30] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm literally just got you okay.
[02:05:32] Speaker A: Just kids. Okay.

[02:05:45] Speaker A: Did she. Did she. Do you think she know then?
[02:05:48] Speaker B: Well, I wanna say that I wasn't disrespectful, but I mean, fucking in the house is disrespectful, but I wasn't noisy.
We weren't noisy.
[02:05:56] Speaker A: Yeah.
[02:05:57] Speaker B: And they rooms was kinda like.
[02:05:59] Speaker A: Yeah. So I remember we was. I used to do it on the floor a lot because the bed was
[02:06:04] Speaker B: dirty ass, you know.
[02:06:05] Speaker A: Hey, the bed was too.
[02:06:07] Speaker B: Rug burns is crazy.
[02:06:08] Speaker A: Nah, we make pallets.
[02:06:10] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Little cushion.
[02:06:12] Speaker A: Yeah. Cause the bed was too noisy.
[02:06:14] Speaker B: Yeah, Yeah. Y' all had them springs.
[02:06:18] Speaker A: Had old ass mattresses.
[02:06:19] Speaker B: Springs in the bed.
[02:06:19] Speaker A: It was broke.
[02:06:20] Speaker B: Fucking. I didn't even mean to go here from that conversation, but it just reminded me that I just saw a video go viral of a mom.
She walks into her kid's room and it's a bunk bed and the son is in bed with the girl.
[02:06:34] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, I did see that.
[02:06:36] Speaker B: She was like. She was calling her all type of bitches and stuff like that. I thought that was. Was like so freaking extreme. And then it's like you recording it.
[02:06:42] Speaker A: That was ghetto.
[02:06:43] Speaker B: That was ghetto as fuck. And it's like you recording it. You trying to like, what is the lesson here? Like, go up and do everything you gonna do, but we don't need to take us out the group chat. Like.
And then I'm also.
I'm also not a fan of sending a young girl out just in the night, you know, like.
[02:07:00] Speaker A: Yeah, that's that.
[02:07:01] Speaker B: I would've took her home or I would have said, go lay, come lay in my room.
She would've had to come lay in my room, come lay in my room. Go lay on the couch. I'm laying here with you. But I'm not sending no young girl out at nighttime, you know, just in the middle of the night. Because she was in my son's house. My son allowed her to be here. My beef is with him, but I do wanna know, why was I in that bunk bed?
[02:07:24] Speaker A: Well, that was his bed.
[02:07:25] Speaker B: No, she was like, you in my baby bed?
[02:07:27] Speaker A: Oh, because he probably. Oh, he probably. I don't know.
[02:07:31] Speaker B: It was kid blankets and everything.
[02:07:32] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm trying to make a excuse for him. I don't know.
