[00:00:24] Speaker B: Personally? Yeah, personally, I had a good week.
We are filming the show in the middle of the week, a day earlier, I guess. So I didn't have enough time to really do anything else with myself, but I did get my car serviced.
[00:00:40] Speaker A: Okay. That's a big deal, though, for a woman.
[00:00:43] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Not like that, but no, like that. I haven't had my car serviced in two years.
[00:00:49] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:00:50] Speaker B: So I took it to the dealership, I got it serviced. I spent the arm and a leg.
I spent more than my car note.
[00:00:56] Speaker A: Damn.
[00:00:57] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. I was sad about that because it's this purse that I really, really want.
[00:01:01] Speaker A: A purse?
[00:01:02] Speaker B: Yeah. And it's like, do you want a purse or do you want engine failure? You know? Like, it's like, which one? Because at the end of the day, if I don't. If I buy the purse and I, like, let the car linger on, then I'm gonna be spending more money later on. But the purse gonna be with me, though.
[00:01:20] Speaker A: Mm. You know, I mean, you could take the purse with you on the bus.
[00:01:25] Speaker B: I wouldn't catch a bus.
I wouldn't catch a bus.
I've been considering taking a train.
[00:01:33] Speaker A: Oh, yeah?
[00:01:34] Speaker B: Because we getting new trains.
[00:01:36] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:01:36] Speaker B: And I really. I need to get back. Cause I used to catch the train when I was going to Cerritos. I caught the train. I caught, like, the train and, like, three buses.
[00:01:46] Speaker A: Yeah, I caught the train and two buses.
[00:01:47] Speaker B: It used to take me, like, five hours to get from home to school. Imagine getting dressed that early.
[00:01:54] Speaker A: I know.
[00:01:54] Speaker B: Just to, you know. But I got followed one time on the train, so I have a really, really bad training experience. And, you know, I got a rob. Did I tell you I got robbed at the bus stop?
[00:02:04] Speaker A: No.
[00:02:05] Speaker B: Yeah, I got robbed at the bus stop.

Some nigga.
[00:02:12] Speaker A: I'm not saying you knew him.
[00:02:13] Speaker B: I'm just saying I was at the bus stop. This. When I lived in Lakewood, I was at the bus stop.
I was having a really bad day, too. But I was on my way to Cerritos and Remember them hello Kitty purses? All the girls had. I had a little hello Kitty purse with my MacBook. And this was a thick ass MacBook. Like the.
I might have had the first MacBook, but like 20 years later.
So my MacBook was in a purse. And I was sitting at the bus stop and I was like this. And I was just so exhausted and tired. Cause I'm at the bus stop, I'm on my way to school, and I just feel my purse slip from under me.
So I thought it fell, though. So I'm like, what the hell? And then I didn't see the purse. And when I looked back, I seen a nigga running with the purse.
I got up and I took off. You bitch ass nigga. And I like, fired his shit up.
[00:02:58] Speaker A: You caught up to him?
[00:02:59] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So this is the bus stop.
The gas station is behind me. And then it's the.
Like the driveway. Like, not driveway.
[00:03:09] Speaker A: What is that called?
[00:03:09] Speaker B: Like, the little. How I go down to go into the street to turn. So. So his car was right there, so he must have just seen me. I was slipping.
[00:03:15] Speaker A: Oh, he pulled over.
[00:03:16] Speaker B: I was slipping. Yeah. And I like, ran up on him, so I thought I fired his shit up, but I was actually hitting the car.
So I'm like. I'm just swinging though, like. And I'm like hitting the car. So he looking like he didn't expect it. Like, he was so freaking thrown off. So we like start fighting over the door and shit. Cause I'm sure I need a fade, bitch. And I'm. Bitch, get out. The bitch is in the car in the passenger seat. She's scared. They can't believe this, nigga.
[00:03:44] Speaker A: I can't believe this.
[00:03:46] Speaker B: They can't believe this. What is wrong with. Okay, they drove off or whatever. And then it was a man that was right there watching the whole thing. And he was already on the phone with the police. The police literally called him within eight minutes because his ass was. Was so fucking spooked that he was driving on the opposite side of the street.
So they caught his ass and they found my purse and everything. I got everything back.
[00:04:11] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:04:12] Speaker B: I got everything back. And then I got in trouble. My daddy cussed me out.
[00:04:15] Speaker A: Hell yeah, he cussed.
[00:04:17] Speaker B: What the fuck is you running up on? My daddy don't know that I was, like, fighting and stuff in high school. He don't know about in the hunts.
[00:04:24] Speaker A: Daddy, I've been squabbling alleys and the home. Old girl you told me that you used to fight with.
[00:04:29] Speaker B: Yeah, like, my daddy don't know what the fuck he think. I'm so, like, you know, I mean, I am, but I was just defending myself. I needed my shit back. I was on my way to school, and I think it was finals. I need my computer.
I'm thinking about failing, but, yeah. So I've been scared, like, to do public transportation and stuff because of that. Cause after that, I didn't catch the bus no more. Didn't catch the train no more or anything. But why did I start talking about the bus and the train?
[00:04:59] Speaker A: Cause you.
[00:05:00] Speaker B: Oh. Cause my car. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you can't take that purse on the bus.
[00:05:04] Speaker A: Nah, you can't.
[00:05:05] Speaker B: You get. Not the one I want. You can get motherfucking robbed. But, yeah, I spent all that money at the dealership. And they gave me a list of things that was wrong with my car.
I said, let's just pick the priority. Whatever is the priority. Cause I'm not doing it with y'. All. Since I'm here and I'm in y' all face right now, I'll pay for it. But I'm about to take it to somewhere in the hunts.
I'm going back to the hood to get this.
What the fuck they tell me. They said my brake pad was split.
[00:05:37] Speaker A: You split it? How the fuck did you split a brake pad?
[00:05:40] Speaker B: I don't know. They said it's split in half.
[00:05:42] Speaker A: You just get in the car and drive it, huh?
[00:05:44] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:05:45] Speaker A: Okay. Did they say the word caliper?
[00:05:49] Speaker B: I don't know what they said.
They gave me a list, and my eyes went straight to the price list.
So it was the list of everything. And then my eyes. I went straight to the. I said, this is my budget today.
[00:06:02] Speaker A: All right? So look, just real quick, just. We ain't gotta get into it, but.
So there's your wheel, and inside the wheel there's this disc thing. It's a rotor, I guess. Okay. So how you stop when you press your brake is the rotor gets pressed between the two brake pads. Okay. What happens is you done press that motherfucker so much to the point where you done cracked one.
It's gone. It's split in half.
That's. I've never seen that.
[00:06:32] Speaker B: I can't even see it. I don't know.
[00:06:34] Speaker A: I've never. Listen, I've heard niggas push they caliper all the way out to the point where you gotta get that fixed.
[00:06:38] Speaker B: What's the caliper?
[00:06:40] Speaker A: The thing that holds the brake pad. Oh, I ain't never heard of a nigga Bust a brake pad?
[00:06:45] Speaker B: Yeah, they said it's split in half.
[00:06:46] Speaker A: They give you a lifetime warranty because it's impossible to break them.
[00:06:51] Speaker B: Really?
[00:06:52] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:06:53] Speaker B: I also don't have a brake light. Like, no brake light has gone off, you know, I never got my brakes fixed. I've had my car for four. It's almost paid off, bro. My car's almost paid off. That's really why I'm going to get everything fixed, too. Cause I want to be able to claim something. Like, I have something in my name that's mine. But yeah, it's split.
[00:07:12] Speaker A: It's still split right now?
[00:07:13] Speaker B: Yeah, it's split right now.
And they said I need a new battery.
[00:07:17] Speaker A: Okay. That's normal.
[00:07:19] Speaker B: They said that if I don't get the battery, it's going to affect my engine, and then I might have to get a new engine.
[00:07:24] Speaker A: Well, you can't start it and just start fucking with your, like, alternator and shit.
[00:07:27] Speaker B: Also, as long as the car started, I'm good.
[00:07:29] Speaker A: No, what happens is you'll go outside one day and you'll hit the button and nothing happen.
[00:07:34] Speaker B: Oh, shit, we can't have that now.
[00:07:39] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? Yeah.
[00:07:40] Speaker B: So they said that something in my car need to be changed or something. Because it's gonna smell like I'm gonna smell it in the air conditioner or something like that.
[00:07:50] Speaker A: I don't know.
[00:07:51] Speaker B: What's that?
[00:07:51] Speaker A: Maybe an air filter.
[00:07:53] Speaker B: Well, it's fixed now. Cause I smelled it. You did? I was smelling something.
I was smelling something. So when he started explaining it, I was like, oh, I smell that.
[00:08:02] Speaker A: Weird odors in her car.
Busted. A cracked brake pad and an odor.
[00:08:09] Speaker B: They gave me a list. I got like a list of like 11 things. I sent them all to my daddy, right? So then he was just like, oh, well, we'll do this, that, this, we'll do. Blah, blah, blah. So.
[00:08:17] Speaker A: So, yeah, that makes sense. But I like the approach, though. Like, what's the most important thing to do on here?
[00:08:22] Speaker B: Yeah, that's what I told. I said, this is my budget. Because the service itself is already expensive, like the actual. That service. So I said, okay, look, this is my budget.
Add on, do it by what's most
[00:08:35] Speaker A: important and what you could fit in with.
[00:08:38] Speaker B: What I could fit in with these dollars? You ever seen a poster? It's like, if you about to sign, you got a label and you finna sign an artist.
That's how I was doing that shit. Yeah, it's like, you got $10,000, but you get 7,000 for this artist or whatever.
Yeah, I did that. And then I finished the show.
I watched a new Netflix show. It's called Something Very Bad or Something Really Bad Is Gonna Happen.
And what the fuck is wrong with
[00:09:05] Speaker A: her choice in cinema?
[00:09:07] Speaker C: I'm intrigued.

[00:09:13] Speaker A: No.
[00:09:14] Speaker C: Please tell me.
[00:09:14] Speaker B: Oh, my goodness. Okay, so it's kind of like gives you the idea or feel that it's like a horror film. Like, really dark. Dark, but then it's funny.
And then it kind of switched to mystery. But then from mystery it goes to, like, thriller. And then it's like action packed.
And then it's gory. Is that the word? Gory?
[00:09:36] Speaker A: Gore.
[00:09:37] Speaker B: Gore. It's very gore.
[00:09:39] Speaker A: Well, it's gory, yes.
[00:09:40] Speaker B: It's giving gory. It's giving gory blood. A lot of blood.
But the blood don't come into, like, episode. Like, the last two episodes is, like, where you see the blood and stuff.
So it's about this girl who's getting married, and her.
She doesn't have any family. Her husband or fiance is taking her back to his family for them to get married because she wants a very, very small wedding.
While she's there, she finds out that if she does not marry him by 6pm no, by sunset. If she doesn't marry him by sunset, then the family curse that she didn't know that she had because she don't know her family is going to trickle down to her. And then if she doesn't marry him by sunset, then it's going to trickle down to her husband and his family.
It was so good.
[00:10:33] Speaker A: That sound like a lot.
[00:10:34] Speaker B: It was a lot.
[00:10:35] Speaker A: That sounded like a lot.
[00:10:35] Speaker B: It was a lot. It's giving, like, you might think it's a little witchcraft, like, going on. Like, it's crazy, bro.
[00:10:42] Speaker A: I need to get better on my. Huh.
Oh, the whites.
Yeah, I can see that.
Cause some black people be like, man, fuck it, you know? And movie be over.
You know what I'm saying? Like, here's what it is. N. They be like, what happened at sunset?
You know what I'm saying? Like, niggas ain't tripping.
[00:11:02] Speaker B: How was your week?
[00:11:04] Speaker A: Definitely interesting, to say the least.
I'm becoming.
I'm getting older by the week. And I noticed that stuff that used to didn't bother me. Now it starts to bother me, and I'm not bothered. I'm unbothered. I'm not Omarion, but I'm Unbothered, just naturally walking around.
And it's be certain stuff that be bothering me. Like, you know when you go to. So you know, I'm pescatarian. So I go to the fish grill. And I'm in there and I'm waiting on my food.
[00:11:34] Speaker B: You know, you getting older when you put the in front of something that's not like the fish grill.
[00:11:40] Speaker A: Well. Cause all you go to two different fish grills. There's California fish grill and then it's fish dish, nigga. So I go to whichever one. So I go to the fish grill.
I'm at the.
[00:11:55] Speaker B: I was up at the Ralph's,
[00:11:58] Speaker A: I'm there and like. So the issue that I. Okay, I have two issues. One, the first one is when you order the food and you waiting on your food, it's like.
Cause it be a bunch of teenagers and shit working, you know what I'm saying? And it's like, hey, my nigga, like I just came from the gym, champ. Like I need my protein, bro. You know what I'm saying? I ordered devil branzino for a reason. Because I need to feed the beast, you know what I'm saying? So I'm waiting on my food and they just be chit chatting. Yeah. So what did Monica say? You know, la la, la la. And my food's sitting there. I'm like, hey, my nigga.
Hey, can I get my bag?
[00:12:40] Speaker B: You tip them.
[00:12:42] Speaker A: This the problem with the tipping system now you gotta tip when you order.
[00:12:45] Speaker B: You gotta tip in. Why am I tipping through?
[00:12:48] Speaker A: I'm not tipping. I'm not advanced tipping. Nobody, bro. That's out.
So I'm irritated by them not giving me my food.
Cause I'm hungry and you looking at
[00:12:59] Speaker B: it sitting right there.
[00:13:00] Speaker A: It's sitting right there. But they chopping it up about. They talking about Sephora and shit, you know what I'm saying?
So now I'm irritated. Then the second piece of it. Oh, the other part, when they finally do give you the food, they like, oh, you want to like here, you want anything else? Let me get some lemons. Whatever. My garlic butter.
[00:13:19] Speaker C: Cool.
[00:13:20] Speaker A: Then they tie the bag up so
[00:13:21] Speaker B: I hate the way they tie it
[00:13:22] Speaker A: up so I can't even get in the fucking bag. Now you done impeded progress on the food twice. You've in violation now. I should beat your ass. I should come over this counter and beat your ass.
[00:13:30] Speaker B: That's a fake.
That's a fake.
[00:13:33] Speaker A: Like, don't tie my shit up in a double knot. Like we. This ain't that yeah, I'm finna go to the car. I'm finna smack this on the freeway.
[00:13:41] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:13:42] Speaker A: Boom.
The second thing that bothers me is when they have the sauces laid out and fucking people be letting they kids play by the sauces head.
[00:13:54] Speaker B: Sometimes you gotta slap a kid, bro.
[00:13:58] Speaker A: Don't. Cause I seen this little. Of course he was. You know what he was?
[00:14:02] Speaker B: What was he?
[00:14:02] Speaker A: He was a white. Took his finger and stuck his finger in the sauce.
Just was like.
And, nigga, when I tell y' all I want to crash out, because I wanted some of that. That was the sauce verde, nigga. Like,
[00:14:18] Speaker B: nah, I was like, his spam, his mama was right there.
[00:14:22] Speaker A: They didn't. Yeah, but they just letting him, like, do whatever, you know, Connor, like. Connor, like, he took his finger and stuck his finger in the sauce, bro. And just went and looked at me and just went back to playing and shit. And I want to.
[00:14:36] Speaker B: Bro, you should have.
[00:14:39] Speaker A: I was really. And I. Because I'm in the process of scooping my, like, you know, they get to you, the little ladle or whatever. I'm in the process of putting my shit in my little to go cups, and I'm doing it. And he does that. And I'm like, first, I want. Where's your dad at? I need to slap the fuck out your dad.
[00:14:56] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:14:58] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? Second of all, I need to slap the fuck out of you. And I done curse your mom out. You know what I'm saying? Like, that's kind of the type of time I was on with when I was there. So that didn't used to bother me, like, when I was younger. Now that little type of shit irritate me.
[00:15:13] Speaker B: That's justified, though.
[00:15:14] Speaker A: That's justified.
[00:15:15] Speaker B: I think that's justification to break your unbotheredness.
[00:15:20] Speaker A: It's only, you know, I only get bothered when shit be involving food.
That's some real big bag shit. But that's the truth.
[00:15:26] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:15:27] Speaker A: The other thing that was dope this week. Well, not dope, but the other thing that happened this week is you and I went to the compound.

[00:15:57] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:15:58] Speaker A: They.
Oh, I can't eat the wings, but I don't know how to. I can't I don't know how to judge, you know, the food no more because I don't eat half of their
[00:16:05] Speaker B: menu with that shrimp.
[00:16:06] Speaker C: You had the shrimp?
[00:16:07] Speaker A: The shrimp was good.
[00:16:08] Speaker B: That shrimp was good. I had so much shrimp.

[00:16:10] Speaker C: That pasta, though.
[00:16:11] Speaker B: I had pasta. Macaroni, shrimp, pasta, chicken.
[00:16:15] Speaker A: They had pasta.
[00:16:15] Speaker C: We got pasta in our boxes.
[00:16:17] Speaker B: Rasta pasta.
[00:16:18] Speaker A: Damn. So, yeah, Snoop had. Snoop dropped a short film, in which case he was playing twin brothers. And that was inter or not twin. He was playing brothers. One on one side of the fence. One on the other side of the fence.
[00:16:31] Speaker B: No, they was twins.
[00:16:32] Speaker A: They were twins. And it was the two things that. Go watch it. If you haven't seen it already, go check out Snoop's documentary or whatever. It's ten to midnight. I mean, not documentary. I'm sorry. Short film. 10 to midnight. Go check that out. But two things that stood out to me about that. One was, I like seeing Snoop act, and I didn't realize that I liked seeing Snoop act. And the other thing was, I.
I think that there's certain. I'm not gonna say who it was in case people don't watch it or I want homies to be offended. It's certain N. That was in that I like they acting better than they music.
[00:17:02] Speaker B: Ooh, shit.
[00:17:04] Speaker A: Cause it was like.
No, like I'm saying, like, I think they could be really big successful actors.
[00:17:11] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:17:12] Speaker A: And I was like, damn, I like this person. Like, I think this person would be very successful as an actor.
[00:17:17] Speaker B: Now that you said that, I don't even wanna shout out who in it.
[00:17:21] Speaker A: Who in it?
[00:17:24] Speaker B: Yeah, Shout Out Raymond and G. Perigo hit a J3. I seen YS YS over there.
[00:17:31] Speaker A: No, it was a few niggas in it, though.
[00:17:32] Speaker B: The Whoops.
[00:17:33] Speaker A: The Whoops was in it.
[00:17:34] Speaker B: The Meet the Whoops was in it.
[00:17:35] Speaker A: What you call it?
Jay Worthy was in Half Dead was in like.
[00:17:39] Speaker B: It was G. Perico caught a body.
[00:17:41] Speaker A: He did catch a body.
[00:17:42] Speaker B: He caught a body.
[00:17:44] Speaker A: Who was the nigga that they killed?
[00:17:46] Speaker B: I forgot.
[00:17:47] Speaker A: But yeah, I just. I don't know. And it's not slight to their music. I'm just saying, like, I think that they really should pursue acting in a real way. You could do both. Like, Will Smith did both.
[00:17:57] Speaker B: I've actually.
I never looked at Rayvon as an actor. Even though he, like, does skits and stuff.
[00:18:05] Speaker A: Like, you know, Rayvon funny. For real.
[00:18:07] Speaker B: He's funny. But recently we've seen him in Laughter. And then just now seeing him on there, I do wanna see him do More acting.
[00:18:15] Speaker A: More acting?
[00:18:16] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:18:16] Speaker A: Yeah. I just think that. And like I said, I want him to get a real role.
[00:18:21] Speaker B: Like some Snowfall. Like some La Basy.
[00:18:23] Speaker A: Exactly.
[00:18:23] Speaker B: Like, I want him to do something like that. But what's it called is good, too.
[00:18:26] Speaker A: GPREGO's good facts. I just think. I don't know. Like, I really wanna see some of the homies do that.
The soundtrack, though, that goes with 10 to midnight was dope. It was a song on there produced by Rick Rock. And actually. Let me just. Let me pull it up.
[00:18:38] Speaker B: The Pockets.
[00:18:39] Speaker A: Is that the Pockets one?
[00:18:40] Speaker B: No.
[00:18:40] Speaker A: So the bitch stop counting my poc. That was like some real Snoop shit. But that ain't the one I'm actually.
I want to shout it out. Cause it was dope to me.
[00:18:50] Speaker C: That's the one with Trinidad James.
[00:18:52] Speaker A: Nah, that's the one y' all like, was there too.
[00:18:54] Speaker B: Was he in the movie?
[00:18:55] Speaker A: Yeah, Trinidad James.
[00:18:56] Speaker B: He was in the movie.
[00:18:56] Speaker A: He was on the. He was in it, but he was on the. When they was in the cell, he was on the.
He's on that song. The lead song from the short film.
[00:19:05] Speaker B: I saw a lot of social media users confused, thinking that Snoop Dogg was, like, trying to fake, like, he had a beard or, like, facial hair and stuff. Like, that's what people was like, what the. When the fuck Snoop Dogg get a beard?
[00:19:16] Speaker A: And.
[00:19:17] Speaker B: Yeah, but I saw other people correcting him. Like, he just dropped a short film with his album and stuff like that.
[00:19:22] Speaker A: Yeah, it's. I think it's.
Yeah, Slid off is one of them.
Excuse me. Um, and it's another one called.
I think it's Pop My Shit. Oh, Brett.
[00:19:37] Speaker B: Oh, no. Pop My Shit.
[00:19:38] Speaker A: Pop My Shit.
That's the one, y'.
[00:19:40] Speaker B: All.
[00:19:40] Speaker A: Like, my shit was bread under the bed. That shit so hard. That shit was so hard. But, yeah, shout out to Snoop. What was you about to say?
[00:19:49] Speaker B: All of it. All the music that was played in the movie.
It fits so good in the movie. Like, it's almost like. I would like to know, was the music created for the movie or was the movie created for the music?
[00:20:04] Speaker A: I think when. From what Snoop was. I did a Q and A with Snoop, too. Thank you, Uncle Snoop, for that and the whole team at Death Row. But when.
I think I got the gist from the way he was answering the question, he did the. He had the concept for the music, and he wanted to bring it to life with a short film. So it was more like the music first. Cause he said that verbatim. Like, music is always first. And then the ideas come from the music.
[00:20:29] Speaker B: Yeah, it fit. It literally fit perfectly. I was also just excited and like, just happy to see something that's for us, for our artist, you know? And I'm glad that he's keeping that. Cause that's what I think. People forget how long or how many films Snoop Dogg has been a part of or worked on. I remember Bones when I was a kid. I remember Boston Up.
He's in the wash.
He's obviously. We know one of his biggest roles that we probably. Probably one of the most, like, notable ones is Baby Boy. Yeah, but remember back in the day, like, where you would get all of these movies, like, not like that, but like low budget films and stuff with rappers and artists that you recognize and also too. You know, I noticed this is totally off subject, but there's like a univ. Back in the 90s, it seemed like it was like a universe of actors and actresses that all were in different movies, but same, same, same. Same people, but different movies and obviously like different characters, but they fit the universe. There's a theory that Poetic justice and Boyz n the Hood live in the same universe.
[00:21:42] Speaker A: Oh, I did. I have seen stuff like that. I have seen stuff like that.
[00:21:45] Speaker B: But it's the same.
I'm trying to stop saying same characters, but same. Same people playing different characters, but they all within the same universe. If you look at any of like, Boyz n the Hood. Friday, Players Club. A lot of the people in Players Club is in Friday.
[00:22:02] Speaker A: Facts.
[00:22:03] Speaker B: A lot of people from Players Club are in Friday.
[00:22:06] Speaker A: Damn. Did you. We didn't even ask you about that.
[00:22:09] Speaker B: Mm. Mm.
[00:22:10] Speaker A: That's the next.
[00:22:11] Speaker B: But it's like they all.
[00:22:12] Speaker A: It bookmarked that.
[00:22:13] Speaker B: Yeah, they all in the. It's like the same. It's like the same universe. Bernie Mac is in Players Club. Bernie Mac is in Friday. Ice Cube, obviously.
Oh, even.
Don't be a Menace.
[00:22:26] Speaker A: Don't be a menace of South Central.
[00:22:27] Speaker B: It's the same characters. Yeah, it's the same characters. I forget his name on Players Club, but he's in Don't Be a Menace. And he's in Players Club. He plays Ice Cube, homie.
[00:22:39] Speaker A: Damn. Yeah, Bookmark that, because that's definitely. I should.
Hey, you know what's funny? I don't have a real. I don't have a direct relationship with Cube. Like, we know we have mutuals.
I'm really cool with O' Shea Jr. Right? O', Shea, Jackson Jr. Me and him be talking shit to each other sometimes. Whenever. Stuff like this, like you just gave me a revelation. Like, you write about the players club and Friday or whatnot. I be wanting to call o'. Shea. Like, hey, can you put your pops with the phone?
Like, call your dad on three way. I got a real question. Like, so when the nigga did death certificate, like, he wasn't even born.
[00:23:12] Speaker B: Yeah, he wasn't even born.
[00:23:13] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? Like, he wasn't even around, bro. But it's like, I got real questions for your pops and I don't know who else to call.
[00:23:20] Speaker B: I'm telling you, I don't know what it was. Obviously, we wasn't there, but that's one of the things that I wanted to talk to, like, a John Singleton about. Because even if you think about the Best man and Boyz na Hood, you know, it's some of the same characters.
It was like a universe back then where they was all just.
Which is how to be is right now, where it's the same characters, but it's like different TV shows. If any of the Chicago or Detroit movies, you're going to see the same characters, it's the same people and stuff, or whatever. But I don't even know what that's called. I don't know if that's something that was intentional. Like, I don't know. But that's just something that I noticed just growing up watching these films and stuff, that a lot of the 90s movies, they use the same actors. It's like, it seemed like it was just one universe where they was just like, you know, insert person here. That's what it felt like to me.
[00:24:13] Speaker A: Okay, yeah, bookmark that. I will definitely. I'm probably gonna text that nigga low key.
[00:24:17] Speaker B: No, you gotta wait till he come back.
[00:24:19] Speaker A: Wait till he come back. All right.
Okay. So there was apparently an email that went around that I was not aware of. Okay.

I'm like, what?
I'm like, why is she still getting her shit sent up here? You know what I'm saying? Because you know, like, well, you don't know, but the listeners don't know. But, you know things have been sent up here for you. And I'm like. I'm thinking to myself, like, damn, I don't know if we could be doing that, like, getting our personal shit sent up here and whatnot. And I'm like, all right, I'll tell her. You know what I'm saying? So when I came back in the room, I didn't even real. I forgot to even tell you.
[00:26:24] Speaker B: You didn't even tell me I had
[00:26:25] Speaker A: a package in the front, that you had a package in the front. But when he said, gina got a package, it was literally the same bag.
He pointed at it. So I'm like, oh, you niggas. He planted some shit in my cerebellum, you know what I'm saying? And that's what made me go. That's what made me, like. I was sold on it. Cause I'm like, oh, you didn't even know you had a package? Cause I didn't even tell you. So when they brought it in, it was double. Like, I didn't even tell y' all this part about it, but it was double. Fuck me.
You know what I'm saying?
Because when they brought it in, you was just a surprise. I'm like, oh, I forgot to tell her she had a package.
So that's what sold it.
I was like, nigga, this a bitch.

I said, let me talk to. Let me talk to our team. So I hit Irene and Nay. And we all collectively know that you're a very difficult person to prank.
So remember, we had that interview scheduled.
[00:27:45] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:27:46] Speaker B: So the interview got canceled. I didn't think it was gonna happen anyway because of who it was. I didn't think she was about to pull up. So I had called J1. I'm like, hey, the social media team is working on something. If that dude get canceled, don't tell head it's canceled. Cause I need him to come up here at that time so we can get it done.
So then it got canceled. And I'm like, he gonna lose three hours of his day. I don't wanna play with my boy. Time.
[00:28:15] Speaker A: Thank you.
[00:28:19] Speaker B: I didn't want to do that to you. I'm like, he don't be playing about his meetings. And, you know, you got your other job. Like, he don't play about his other job. Let me not do that to them. So I told them, you know, the situation, like, he gonna be here at, you know, such and such time. So they was like, oh, Gina, don't worry about it. We're filming all type of pranks today.
[00:28:37] Speaker C: Wow.
[00:28:37] Speaker B: Cause it's for the other house. Whatever.
So you didn't even realize when they pulled me outside?
[00:28:45] Speaker A: Nah.
[00:28:45] Speaker B: Yeah, they had pulled me outside. I think they said, gina, can you step in the hallway real quick?
[00:28:50] Speaker A: Oh, I do remember that.
[00:28:51] Speaker B: I'm like, why would she say that?
Cause I knew he wasn't gonna pay attention.
[00:28:56] Speaker A: I don't even paying attention.
[00:28:57] Speaker B: I knew he wasn't.
[00:28:58] Speaker A: You got a morning shot. I don't know what the fuck be going on up here.
[00:29:01] Speaker C: Right after you left, I distracted him with something else.
[00:29:03] Speaker B: Like, we immediately started talking about something else.
So you didn't even. Did you realize when I told your homegirl that you brought.
[00:29:10] Speaker A: No.
[00:29:11] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. So I stood right there. Like, I hid right there. And it's so funny. Avery was like, jeannie, you've been gone too long. You need to go back in there before he gets suspicious. So I had peeked right there through the door, and I had seen your homegirl, and I was like, come here. So then I told her to prank, and she was like, all right, I got you.
[00:29:27] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:29:27] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:29:28] Speaker A: I Don't be. You know what this taught me? That I'm not observant enough.
Like, if me and you go to the mall and it's like we leaving the mall, we shut the mall down. It's eight o', clock, it's closing, we walking through the parking lot. I could spot a raccoon in a tree 200 yards out.
[00:29:46] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:29:46] Speaker A: I could spot a nigga. I could spot the same car with the same license plate. Like, that car used to be parked right there. Or them niggas are circling. But you going in the hallway, bro. Like, are you changing your hair or changing. Nay coming here with different nails? I don't be seeing none of that shit.
[00:30:02] Speaker B: Like, that's cause you have environmental awareness, not situational awareness.
[00:30:09] Speaker A: Okay. Yeah. So yeah, that you just a man though. Yeah, that's okay. That's a fact.
[00:30:13] Speaker B: That's all right. But yeah, we got you.
So I do understand that I'm already in the negative on pranks. Yeah.
[00:30:23] Speaker A: Cause it's sincere.
[00:30:25] Speaker B: Yeah. But the only thing that I just ask of you is just don't do it with like a fabulous.
Don't do it with like a wale. Jagged Edge.
Don't fuck with my dog, my car.
[00:30:38] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:30:39] Speaker B: And don't play with no money.

[00:30:48] Speaker A: Yeah, it ain't gonna be no money, but it'll definitely be like, I would do like. I'll tell you one I was thinking about, but I don't think I could pull it off. One I was thinking about was I was gonna have Fabulous dish you and then, you know, like ride it out for like a couple days.
[00:31:03] Speaker B: Bro, that's not a prank. Why I would cry.
[00:31:07] Speaker A: That's collateral damage.

I was gonna have Clue put together, give me some fab shit and be like Gene and have put it in an untitled playlist and be like, gene, I got this mixtape, like fab finish drop with Clue mixtape and send it to you. And then on that song, you be dissed on there for some reason. I don't know why.
[00:31:50] Speaker B: You know how you just so not clever?
Because what you should have did is got on AI Nah and made a song, put it in the thing, sent it to the group, chat like, gina, you can't tell nobody about this. And then just let me be sad for three days. Cause you know I wouldn't say nothing publicly.
[00:32:07] Speaker A: I need him to be involved.
[00:32:09] Speaker B: All right. I'm glad that that's not happening.
[00:32:11] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm not gonna ask that of him. Cause I wouldn't want to involve him in our bullshit. All right, but that was an idea I had.
[00:32:16] Speaker B: Well, I'm glad you told me. And I know that you have a direct line to my.
So I know you wouldn't play with his time. He on tour.
[00:32:24] Speaker A: I play with his time.

[00:33:00] Speaker B: Oh, okay.
[00:33:01] Speaker A: Like, now there's a rapport. He know. Like, it just. I don't think it'll hit the same.

[00:33:16] Speaker B: I don't play about that. Fabulous.
[00:33:17] Speaker A: I'm just saying that was an idea.

I don't even wanna give you no ideas.
[00:33:23] Speaker A: Nah, I get real creative with my shit. We'll see. Stay on stream.
[00:33:28] Speaker B: When do you think. What did you ask me earlier? When do you think the prank has gone too far?
[00:33:33] Speaker A: Oh, I think when it's Okay. I have two ways that something has gone too far. One, if it costs somebody some money.
[00:33:41] Speaker B: Like, you are the prankie. The pranker or the prankie? Both. Okay.
[00:33:46] Speaker A: I'm not finna do nothing that's gonna cost you your job.
Cost you some money. Like, I think that's you playing too much. Like, that's not okay.
[00:33:54] Speaker B: Oh, like that. I thought you meant, like, if you Gotta spend money. Like how Kevin Hart be delivering animals to nicknames.
[00:33:59] Speaker A: I'm fucking with that. Okay, if you cost. Like if Kevin Hart was sending somebody, some animals or something to they show and Live Nation cancel they venue. Like that's fucking with my. Like I sold niggas, the show sold out. Yeah, like don't fuck my money up.
That's playing too much. But putting your number on a billboard, that's fire.
[00:34:19] Speaker B: That's your shit.
[00:34:20] Speaker A: That's top tier content. I fuck with that type of shit. But they rich. We can't do that yet. You know what I'm saying?
[00:34:26] Speaker B: You put my number on the billboard, I'm putting your number on back page, nigga.
[00:34:32] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? You gonna be getting feed inquiries once we start. Okay, I'll put it to you this way. I'll tell you the truth. Maybe let's say when you get your first million dollar contract, I'm putting your number on a billboard in LA from somewhere.
[00:34:46] Speaker B: Okay?
[00:34:46] Speaker A: It's gonna probably be. It's gonna be. It ain't gonna be in the hundreds. It's gonna be like.
It's gonna be like right on flight. Manchester and FIG,
[00:34:56] Speaker B: open 24 7.
[00:34:58] Speaker A: It's gonna have a. And I'm not gonna put your face on it. Cause I don't wanna get sued for libel and likeness and shit. So it'll just be like,
[00:35:08] Speaker B: ain't nobody reading billboards.
[00:35:11] Speaker A: If your number up there, I'll put your name up there.
[00:35:13] Speaker B: Y' all think people read billboards?
[00:35:14] Speaker A: Hell yeah. Hell yeah. Oh, you know which one I get? The one where. Right there, where you about to get on the 405.
[00:35:21] Speaker B: You ain't got no money for that.
[00:35:22] Speaker A: I know you know what I'm talking about. The new Gateway to Inglewood. Like, yeah, that's the.
[00:35:28] Speaker B: That's the one that be playing movies and shit.
[00:35:30] Speaker A: Yeah, it'd be trailers. You don't think that's a driving hazard?
I think that, bro, I saw the whole. I watched the whole paradise trailer on the damn thing. Like, damn, I wanna watch a new season of Paradise.
I gotta get Hulu, nigga.
But yeah, like, I'll probably do some shit like that.
[00:35:50] Speaker B: Okay, hit us up in the comments and let us know what is a prank that either you've done to someone or someone who's done to you and it just went entirely too far, or if it was just a really, really good prank, like just a good prank.
[00:36:04] Speaker A: I told you about the one with my homeboy where I told him I left a message on his machine and shit. And I ain't tell you about that. Yeah, that was fucked up.
[00:36:12] Speaker B: What'd you do?
[00:36:14] Speaker A: So I used to be able to do voices really good.
And I basically. Basically what happened was my boy. You remember how back in the day, before cell phones, okay, kids, there were things before cell phones. We had house phones and my homeboy had his own in his room. I called his number and left a voicemail. Cause he didn't pick up. And I was like, yo, this is Keith Harris. I'd say I used my middle name and I used the name of somebody that we knew.
I said, I'm calling from the Harbor Free Clinic. I'm just calling, let you know we got your test results back, your blood work, and. Woo, woo, woo. And I let him know that, you know, that we found a discrepancy in his blood panel and he needed to come in immediately to start medication.
And basically I told him, like, he had some shit. Right.
I didn't realize that the answering machine in his phone in his room also went to the house.
[00:37:04] Speaker B: Oh, okay. I think you did tell me this, but go ahead, go ahead.
[00:37:08] Speaker A: So basically, he ended up. His mom kicked his door in. He ended up telling his mom everything he ever did. With who? With the girl and all this shit. And they cried together. And then he finally listened to the message and I left. I said, call me back as soon as possible at this number. I left my real number. He called me back and cursed me the fuck out. But that was, like, one of the worst things. One of the worst ones I did.
[00:37:29] Speaker B: Are y' all still friends?
[00:37:30] Speaker A: No.
[00:37:31] Speaker B: Y' all stop being friends after that?
[00:37:33] Speaker A: I don't think it was cause of that, but I don't think I won a lot of favor after that either.
[00:37:37] Speaker B: Was it April Fools?
[00:37:39] Speaker A: It might have been just a Tuesday.
I used to play too much.
[00:37:43] Speaker B: He caught this nigga in the middle of September.
[00:37:46] Speaker A: It might have just. I played too much.
[00:37:48] Speaker B: Okay, so you knew how to do, like, voiceovers and stuff Real.
[00:37:51] Speaker A: Yeah, I used to do real. I used to be able to disguise my. Now my voice is fully like. But this isn't like. Oh, when you was a kid, like, high school. Ish. College.
[00:37:59] Speaker B: Sheesh.
[00:38:00] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:38:01] Speaker B: Okay, so versus Happened. Versus happened while we was here, I think.
[00:38:07] Speaker A: What do you think the stock on turtlenecks went after that?
That nigga wore that turtleneck out for a tank.
[00:38:14] Speaker B: I didn't know that they were funny.
[00:38:16] Speaker A: You didn't?
[00:38:17] Speaker B: No, I didn't know they were that funny.
[00:38:18] Speaker A: I knew. I didn't think they were that funny.
But I knew they had jokes. Tyrese from Watts. You gotta have jokes to be from Watts.
[00:38:25] Speaker B: They have really good chemistry.
[00:38:27] Speaker A: You could tell they like, really homies, for real. But two things. One, I didn't care to watch. I'm not an R and B head like that. I wanted to watch it just Cause these are men that I respect. Like, you know, they homies or whatnot. The other thing was people really feel away about they R and B. Like, you know, how we hip. Like you a rap fan. You feel like Sue Surf. Like you one of them N. Right.
R and B people might be worse than hip hop niggas.
[00:38:56] Speaker B: Oh, they're like the Barbs.
[00:38:59] Speaker A: I didn't know.
[00:39:00] Speaker B: I didn't know either. I found out, though.
[00:39:01] Speaker A: I found.
[00:39:02] Speaker B: Yeah, I've been deleting tweets for real, you know, I don't delete shit.
[00:39:06] Speaker A: What happened?
[00:39:07] Speaker B: So I had tweeted.

[00:39:12] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:39:13] Speaker B: And it was so many tweets. Like, what verse is she watching? You watching the wrong shit. You da da da da da da.
Clearly she got paid to tweet this and stuff like that. So I'm thinking, like, is my algorithm all Tank fans? Like, what's the. You know? But also, I think I don't. Okay, this will make it too political. What I'm about to say will make it too political. But I think we do need to figure out the rules for verses.
[00:39:39] Speaker A: There needs to be a clear.
[00:39:41] Speaker B: Yeah, because in my mind, you win off of your catalog and your hits that you performed, regardless of what you wrote, regardless of what you did for any other artist.
So I was judging.
[00:40:00] Speaker A: Wait, wait, wait. So what you're saying is, like, you went around based on that song that you play.
Say that again.
[00:40:10] Speaker B: I'm saying that to me, verses is hit for hit based off of the songs that are your songs that you perform.
Oh.
[00:40:17] Speaker A: Regardless of who wrote it and. Yeah, okay, gotcha.
[00:40:19] Speaker B: Regardless of the writers.
[00:40:20] Speaker A: Okay. Got you.
[00:40:21] Speaker B: You get what I'm saying? Yeah, Because Tank. Tank cheated.
That was Tanking friends.
[00:40:27] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:40:28] Speaker B: That's what that was.
[00:40:28] Speaker A: You talking about him bringing Eric. Bringing Eric.
[00:40:30] Speaker B: Yeah, that was Tank and Friends, because these are songs that he wrote. Obviously. He has a crazy pen. He does an amazing. He's an amazing live performer. He's a better live performer than Tyrese is, and he has a better pen than Tyrese does. Obviously, he's written for, you know, for other artists, but Tyrese catalog is better than Tank's.
So the fact that the consensus Was Tank won based off of his pin for other artists and based off of him being a better live performer, I just didn't think that that was equal.
[00:41:04] Speaker A: I see what you're saying.
[00:41:05] Speaker B: Because that would mean that. Cause now it's. Obviously, this is all one sport, but it just felt like it was different categories.
[00:41:13] Speaker A: Okay. Okay. Let's stay right there. Okay. Let's go to Dipset and the lox, though.
People look at that locks moment as a thing because of the performance, though. Not because the song New York is better, but because that's not even Jadakiss song. That's Ja Rule's song.
[00:41:33] Speaker B: Well, performance on the song.
[00:41:35] Speaker A: Yeah, but based on that same perform it, though. Oh, you're saying performance on the song. Yeah, but. But they're saying that his performance of that song and then the buildup to that song was the reason was the moment of that verses. So he gets credit for the victory based on that and not necessarily just the song. New York Ja Rule featuring Jadakiss and Fat Joe.
[00:41:57] Speaker B: Well, the featured thing is a different conversation.
[00:41:59] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:42:00] Speaker B: Features is different.
[00:42:01] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:42:01] Speaker B: Because I feel like these are still songs that they're performing when they do concerts. If you have a verse on that song, you're still gonna perform it.
[00:42:11] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:42:12] Speaker B: You're not performing Latoya Luckett or Jamie Foxx.
[00:42:15] Speaker A: Yeah, I feel you.
[00:42:16] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? So I thought that we are putting catalog against catalog.
Not the shit that you wrote.
[00:42:22] Speaker A: Got you.
[00:42:23] Speaker B: You get what I'm saying?
[00:42:24] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:42:25] Speaker B: So that confused the hell out of me.
[00:42:27] Speaker A: What if they do a songwriters versus though.
[00:42:30] Speaker B: That's all. That was the comparison that a lot of people said that it should have been Tank versus Neo.
[00:42:35] Speaker A: Oh.
[00:42:36] Speaker B: Rather than a writer singer versus a writer singer. Not a writer singer versus a singer.
[00:42:42] Speaker A: An artist is.
[00:42:43] Speaker B: Yeah. Because you can pull all type of tricks out the bag if you don't wrote for half the industry.
[00:42:48] Speaker A: Facts. The dream fucking.
[00:42:50] Speaker B: Yeah. You wrote for half the industry.
That's a clean sweep.
Because you can pull in. Yeah, yeah. Sean Garrett now. Okay. Same thing. Let's take Tank out.
Let's take Tank out. And you put Sean Garrett versus Tyrese. Versus Tyrese. Let's just take Tank out and put Sean Garrett versus Tyrese.
John Garrett can bring out Beyonce, Usher. Usher. He done wrote so many songs that he wrote on Destiny Fulfilled, which is arguably one of the best R and B albums of all time. And Confessions, you know, but he whoops Tyrese ass watches him. That's not fair.
[00:43:27] Speaker A: That's not an equal comparison.
[00:43:28] Speaker B: That's not an equal comparison.
[00:43:29] Speaker A: I get it.
[00:43:30] Speaker B: Does Sean Garrett have bangers? Absolutely. Tripping on the bed is amazing. You know, I done let them girls like. He got some shit.
[00:43:37] Speaker A: He got some shit.
[00:43:38] Speaker B: He got some shit. But catalog with catalog, if it's just his catalog and the songs that he performed against Tyrese and the songs that he performs, Tyrese whoops his ass. But when you bring out all them artists that you pin for. You know what I'm saying?
[00:43:51] Speaker A: That's why you say tank cheated Tanking friends. It's tanking friends.
[00:43:54] Speaker B: That was tanking friends.
[00:43:55] Speaker A: Well, I mean, didn't he. He had chingy. He had the turtleneck.
[00:44:02] Speaker B: And chingy's a feature, though.
[00:44:05] Speaker A: Tyrese was a feature.
[00:44:06] Speaker B: Tyrese is a feature.
[00:44:07] Speaker A: So you. But he still get credit for that. Cause he could still perform that record on his own.
[00:44:12] Speaker B: That one, I don't know what that was in response to, but that one, depending on what it was in response to, I would have gave that point to Tank because you just on the hook.
[00:44:23] Speaker A: Well, if there was a song that tank was just on the hook, then it would be comparable. So then it sounds like the way we need to do this is there need to be two comparable artists, which is the way versus started, obviously. But two people that literally can go this for that and match one to one.
But the way artistry works in the creative world is so all over the place, it be hard. Like, there's no. I don't know no other Gina views. You know what I'm saying? I don't know. I only know one Gena views. I know one Lauren LaRosa.
[00:44:50] Speaker B: But you wouldn't put me on a versus if we was doing a media versus. You wouldn't put me on a versus with somebody who does sports reporting.
[00:44:58] Speaker A: Correct. You're right.
[00:44:59] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? Even like with Lauren, like Lauren does. We both do pop culture, but I don't. I couldn't tell you how to break down no damn court case facts. I can tell you how to break down some rap bars, though.
[00:45:10] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:45:11] Speaker B: And that's probably where she wouldn't be able to Correct. You know what I'm saying? So I think that it's just. It has to be equal.
[00:45:17] Speaker A: But then to.
I'm just playing the other side of the fence in versus, how do you then match people? Because not only do you have to find people that are comparable, then you have to go down their catalog and figure out, okay, their catalog's comparable in addition to them being as creatives or artists and Then you see if they are willing to do it. And then scheduling.
[00:45:38] Speaker B: That's why I led with everything that I'm about to say is gonna make it too political.
Because now you strip the fun out of watching versus because it get too technical when obviously it's called verses. So it is supposed to be competitive. But as fans, we need to just enjoy the show.
[00:45:56] Speaker A: Agreed.
[00:45:57] Speaker B: Like, it's just like they said. It's for the ladies. It's just a night of love, you know? So I think that that's what makes it so. That would make it too complicated and difficult and stuff. But if you tallying up points, n. Tyrese won.
[00:46:10] Speaker A: Yeah. No, I get what you're saying. Cause I think, okay, who were the best. What were the best verses in tour? Fuck the songs. Fuck the performances in the catalog.
[00:46:20] Speaker B: That was equal.
[00:46:20] Speaker A: That was just the best match.
[00:46:22] Speaker B: Maybe Ashanti and Keycia Cole.
[00:46:25] Speaker C: See, I.
I'm gonna go Nelly Ludacris.
[00:46:29] Speaker A: I'm gonna go Nelly Ludacris.
[00:46:30] Speaker B: Nelly and Ludacris.
[00:46:30] Speaker A: I'm gonna go Nelly Ludacris.
[00:46:32] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:46:32] Speaker A: And I'm gonna go E42 short.
[00:46:35] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:46:37] Speaker A: To me, the Jeezy and Gucci.
[00:46:39] Speaker B: Snoop Dogg and dmx.
[00:46:40] Speaker A: Not Jeezy and Gucci.
[00:46:42] Speaker B: Snoop and dmx.
[00:46:43] Speaker A: Snoop and I like that one.
[00:46:45] Speaker C: That's a good one.
[00:46:46] Speaker A: I gotta go back and watch that one.
[00:46:47] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:46:48] Speaker A: Okay, so. But those are, like, it's hard to match people, which is your point. Like, it just get complicated.
[00:46:55] Speaker B: It get too complicated. That's why I said, like, we gotta just, as fans, just enjoy it. But I don't think it's fair to say, like, oh, Tyrese got his ass whooped because he's not a good live performer.
That's not what Versus is.
[00:47:10] Speaker A: That's not what it's about.
[00:47:11] Speaker B: That's not what it's about. It's about the catalog. Or is it?
[00:47:14] Speaker A: Or is it? We don't know.
[00:47:15] Speaker B: We don't know.
We don't know.
[00:47:17] Speaker A: I think, you know, it's a good marketing strategy for Timbaland and Swizz and they whole team to, like, not tell us.
Cause now it's just everybody is arguing about versus, so now it's running they shit up. But it's like, versus becomes a real moment in time where every. It actually reminds me of, like, Covid, which is where, you know, the whole type of shit was birthed a little bit, where the whole world is, like, locked into this thing right now. It's like what appointment television used to be. Like, oh, my Wife and Kids is coming on at 8 o'.
[00:47:50] Speaker B: Clock.
[00:47:50] Speaker A: And we all watching it. Like when Power first hit. We all watching Power.
[00:47:55] Speaker B: We all watch it as a culture.
[00:47:56] Speaker A: Yeah. So I feel like verse is one of those things where everybody's tuned in at the same time and everybody's talking about it. So it kind of works a benefit to be ambiguous, where we don't know what the criteria is. We don't know how many records it is. We don't know what the stipulation is. Like, we don't know.
[00:48:11] Speaker B: That's what I was going to say. I think, too, it does make for good conversation because like you said, if we don't know. We didn't know that.
What was it? Young Money. I mean, not Young Money, Cash Money. And who did they go against?
[00:48:25] Speaker A: No Limit.
[00:48:26] Speaker B: No Limit. We didn't know that Cash Money and no Limit were going to only do 10 songs.
[00:48:30] Speaker A: Yeah, I had no idea.
[00:48:31] Speaker B: You know? So it's like, if they don't tell us. And I think it also works if they switching shit up.
[00:48:37] Speaker A: So, like, just switch the rules for per.
[00:48:39] Speaker B: Just switch the rules up.
[00:48:41] Speaker A: Oh, if they switching shit up.
[00:48:43] Speaker B: If they just switching stuff up. Cause we don't know what to expect. You don't know what to expect in a football game.
[00:48:48] Speaker A: I have no idea.
[00:48:49] Speaker B: You don't know what to expect in a basketball game. You just know. And I don't watch sports, but I know that y' all be shocked when
[00:48:54] Speaker A: n start fighting sometimes. Yeah.
[00:48:56] Speaker B: You know, like if a nigga hit two threes back to back, y' all like, ooh, you know, you watching that parlay. I don't know. I don't even know what I'm talking about right now.
[00:49:04] Speaker A: But what I'm getting is that you
[00:49:06] Speaker B: don't know what to expect in a competition.
[00:49:08] Speaker A: But also to that point, though, I don't even think them n knew on stage because, remember, Mannie Fresh made the announcement, but he was making an announcement to the homies on stage. I mean, to the crowd. He wasn't making an announcement to the world. He was like, no, they told us we got 10 songs, blah, blah, blah. And everybody on stage is like, oh, all right.
They didn't even tell them n they
[00:49:33] Speaker B: had three last songs.
It was like, this, the last song,
[00:49:36] Speaker A: three last songs, and we only gonna do one verse and one hook. And that song was four minutes, whatever.
[00:49:44] Speaker B: But, yeah, I do think it needs to be like, it does need to be equal for the conversation. But also it's like, I do kinda enjoy seeing people talking about these legendary acts. Like, I enjoy seeing them get they love and they credit and stuff. Because I, I, I don't know if this is true, but I'm going to assume that when versus happens, that these people catalog, it goes up, you know?
[00:50:09] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:50:10] Speaker B: So. But yeah, I thought that was a good one. I thought it was a good versus.
[00:50:13] Speaker A: Are we going to get a classic? I mean, pick a classic R and B Versus Like, I'm talking about groups.
[00:50:23] Speaker B: Well, they gotta redo that jagged edge in 112.
[00:50:25] Speaker A: They gotta redo that.
[00:50:26] Speaker B: They gotta redo that one. I think it was only.
It was 112. Only had two niggas there. It was only 11. It was only 12 there.
[00:50:35] Speaker A: 12.
[00:50:35] Speaker B: I think it was three of jagged ass remembers. I forget. But remember they did it early on when it was like on the phones.
[00:50:42] Speaker A: Oh, okay. All right. Well, let us know what you think, boys.
[00:50:47] Speaker B: To me, boys.
[00:50:48] Speaker A: I mean, who.
[00:50:51] Speaker B: All right, what I'm about to say, I know that it's gonna piss some older people off.
And they may say that it's not equal.
[00:50:59] Speaker C: They already mad at us.
[00:51:01] Speaker B: Some old, more old people.
[00:51:02] Speaker C: They mad. They mad ahead for his Jay Z, Nas take. They over there flaming.
[00:51:06] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. They killing me for that because I mixed them up.
[00:51:09] Speaker C: Well, they saying Nas was on his way out and Jay Z.
I was
[00:51:13] Speaker A: told the story based on the one perspective.
[00:51:16] Speaker B: Oh, when I asked them, yeah, they not.
[00:51:18] Speaker A: I was telling the story of Nas, but I was saying it was Jay Z.
Just old nigga shit.
[00:51:23] Speaker B: Oh, do I need to clip that?
Maybe little money on TikTok.
Anyway, let me know what you need, nigga.
[00:51:37] Speaker A: I'm over here.
[00:51:38] Speaker B: I'm like a chef in the kitchen. What you need?
[00:51:41] Speaker C: We gonna piss everybody.
[00:51:42] Speaker B: But I was gonna say, Boy, some men and New Edition. That's what I thought.
[00:51:45] Speaker A: Really?
[00:51:45] Speaker B: Also, that's not bad.
[00:51:46] Speaker A: That's not bad.
[00:51:48] Speaker B: But didn't Boy, some men discover New Edition.
[00:51:54] Speaker A: People look at them.
[00:51:55] Speaker B: Or is that the other way around?
[00:51:57] Speaker A: People look at them as their offspring.
[00:52:02] Speaker B: Which one? Cause I think I said it backwards.
[00:52:04] Speaker A: Boys. New Edition. New Edition was first.
[00:52:07] Speaker B: So New Edition discover Boyz II Men. I remember in the movie where there was one of the characters was one of the members from Boyz II Men and they like crossed paths on the bus. And he said I'm blah, blah, blah. That happened, right?
[00:52:20] Speaker C: I believe so.
[00:52:20] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:52:22] Speaker C: Let's have head fact check. Cause we are in front of our trusty computers.
[00:52:26] Speaker B: Well, yeah, I think that's what it is. But that's why I said that the older People might be mad at that.
[00:52:30] Speaker A: Michael Bivens of New Edition discovered and mentored Boyz ii men in 1989.
[00:52:36] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:52:37] Speaker A: They snuck backstage to a con in a concert, but yeah, I remember that. I know. The New Edition.
[00:52:43] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:52:43] Speaker A: New Edition basically is like, not. I don't say they birthed the boys to men, but, you know, that is the consensus that the boys to men is the. Is a spin off of New Edition of New Edition.
[00:52:54] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah.
[00:52:55] Speaker A: Which they held the mantle like boys to men ain't no nothing to slouch at.
[00:53:00] Speaker B: I think that would be a good one.
[00:53:02] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, that'd be hard because.
[00:53:03] Speaker B: Who else?
[00:53:04] Speaker A: I don't know.
I don't know.
[00:53:08] Speaker B: And I feel like we need another one with the opening verses. The one they did with Omarion and Mario. I love that.
[00:53:15] Speaker A: You know what? I think I had an opportunity to interview Michael Bivens one time. I would like to have him come up here. Cause, like, that'd be cr. Michael Bivens was a part of two legendary groups, and that's very rare. Like, I think was. I am.
I'm sound like a real dumbass. Immature was different from imx. How?
[00:53:37] Speaker B: Okay, so we dropped the ball on that Marcus Houston interview.
[00:53:42] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:53:43] Speaker B: Because I found out Shout out to Spank calls my boy D Spank, the original character. I mean, the original member and Immature is not.
The original members are not the same.
[00:53:59] Speaker A: Correct. I knew that.
[00:54:00] Speaker B: I didn't know that.
[00:54:01] Speaker A: You didn't know that?
[00:54:02] Speaker B: No.
[00:54:02] Speaker A: That's why I just asked you that question. Like, how are they different?
[00:54:05] Speaker B: That's the difference.
[00:54:08] Speaker A: Wow.
I didn't know. You didn't know that. So that's where I was going with it. I'm like, how do you. There's very few people who are part of two monumental groups, like, two separate groups that are, like, big as fuck. You know what I mean? Like, Marcus Houston is one of them people.
[00:54:22] Speaker B: Well, no, it's still the same group.
So it's like, different.
It's like Bugaboo, Destiny Child, and Soldier.
[00:54:33] Speaker A: Destiny Child, yeah, same.
[00:54:36] Speaker B: It's still the same group just switching members. Just different members.
[00:54:38] Speaker A: Right.
[00:54:38] Speaker B: So it's still the same thing. But they changed their name.
But I think we asked them about that. We asked them why was the name changed.
[00:54:45] Speaker A: Members in IMX and Immature.
[00:54:47] Speaker B: One of them is the same. Two of them are the same. But the Asian one that's on House Party, he's not in the. He's not in imx.
[00:54:56] Speaker A: That's a different group then, to me.
[00:54:57] Speaker B: Why?
[00:54:58] Speaker A: Cause it's not the same members.
Just like Destiny's Child is separated into two tiers. OG Destiny's Child and Destiny's Child. Are we.
[00:55:06] Speaker B: Oh, okay. I get what you're saying. Well, yeah, that's the difference.
[00:55:08] Speaker A: So.
But it would be. The. The only difference would be is if they didn't change the name.
So it would be one legendary group if they never changed their name.
[00:55:17] Speaker B: But remember when we asked them. I think I wanna say we talked. I don't know if we talked about it off camera or on an interview, but he said that it was just a different. Just different wording. Like, they're still immature. It just spelled different.
[00:55:31] Speaker A: Yeah, that's above my pay grade. I don't know.
[00:55:33] Speaker B: He said something like that. Did he say something? Y' all remember that?
[00:55:35] Speaker A: I don't remember that shit.
[00:55:36] Speaker B: He said something like that. Like, it was just wordplay. Name wordplay. Like, he said something like that. Like it's just a name change.
[00:55:41] Speaker A: Got you. Well, my point is, Michael Bivens is New Edition and Belle B of Devoe. I gotta talk to him. Like, that's insane. Like, you got classic records of two different groups. That's crazy. Like, that's.
[00:55:53] Speaker B: Anyway, what's your legendary verses?
[00:55:57] Speaker A: R and B. Yeah, like army groups. I want to see the whites do it.
[00:56:02] Speaker B: Who?
[00:56:03] Speaker A: I want to see the whites do
[00:56:04] Speaker B: it this, that TRL's. For them to see NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys.
[00:56:10] Speaker A: That would be crazy.
[00:56:12] Speaker B: Would it?
[00:56:13] Speaker A: No, not at this point.
[00:56:16] Speaker B: There's a thousand words that I can say to make you come home Been so long since you walked away oh, you know what I wanted to ask you.
[00:56:29] Speaker A: I would say.
[00:56:29] Speaker B: I'll save this for Twitter.
[00:56:31] Speaker A: Oh, Lord.
[00:56:32] Speaker B: What?
[00:56:33] Speaker A: I would say I don't have a good one, but I definitely would like to see B2K.
[00:56:44] Speaker B: We seen it.
[00:56:45] Speaker A: No, I'm talking about go again.
[00:56:47] Speaker B: Against who?
[00:56:49] Speaker A: Like an older group. Like, I wanna see how you just had the Boyz II Men and New Edition. I wanna see them. Like, who would be. Who was the B2K before?
Shit.
Do you get what I'm saying, though? Like, a generational versus.
[00:57:07] Speaker B: Like, okay, see, the generational versus, to me, is Chris Brown and Usher.
[00:57:12] Speaker A: That's gonna shut. Shit. They gotta do that at Sofi.
[00:57:16] Speaker B: They gotta sell tickets for that.
[00:57:17] Speaker A: They gotta sell tickets for that. Nigga. Niggas is going to that. Like, nigga, I'm not finna watch that shit on Apple Music. Yeah, I'm pulling up that nigga. Usher danced on the side of a wall Chris Brown flew in his Last tour. I'm going to see that, bro.
[00:57:32] Speaker B: Is it the old people gonna be mad.
[00:57:35] Speaker A: They gonna be mad anyway.
[00:57:36] Speaker B: 112 in B2K.
[00:57:40] Speaker A: Nate.
[00:57:42] Speaker B: Why?
[00:57:42] Speaker C: Okay, Y' all don't hate me, but when you said B2K, I thought B2K and jagged edge.
[00:57:47] Speaker B: Okay, I did think that. The only reason why I changed my mind. Because they don't dance.
[00:57:51] Speaker A: Jacket Edge don't dance.
[00:57:52] Speaker B: Jagged Edge don't really dance. 1:12 dance.
[00:57:55] Speaker C: Does it make up for it? That's B2K. Might not have enough hits for a jacket.
[00:58:00] Speaker B: B2K.
[00:58:01] Speaker A: Do they got 20?
[00:58:05] Speaker C: And that's coming from a fan.
[00:58:06] Speaker B: I'm a fan fan because I don't want y' all to cheat in duo Marian songs, man.
[00:58:11] Speaker A: They for sure running Omarion record. They gonna do three Omarion.
[00:58:15] Speaker B: That might happen.
[00:58:15] Speaker A: Nigga, if they got 15 records, two of them is Omarion record for sure.
[00:58:19] Speaker B: You know why that's not equal to we back here?
Because Jagged Edge don't have a member that went solo.
[00:58:25] Speaker A: That's not equal.
[00:58:26] Speaker B: That's true. You know, I don't know.
[00:58:28] Speaker A: All right. I don't know, then.
[00:58:29] Speaker B: But we damn near got a B2K versus B2K. Wasn't in the building, but we heard the songs.
[00:58:34] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:58:35] Speaker B: And we lost.
[00:58:37] Speaker A: I don't have a comment on that.
[00:58:39] Speaker B: We lost.
We lost. And Mario was performing shit that we didn't know.
[00:58:46] Speaker A: How did we lose?
[00:58:48] Speaker B: Cause Mario was a better. Whoo. There. Here we go.
Mario was a better live performer.
[00:58:54] Speaker A: But that's not the. That's not what it's. That's not the criteria. Fuck. All right, we need to move on. We'll be here all night. This whole show be verses, you know?
[00:59:03] Speaker B: We need to talk to Swizz and Timberland. Absolutely.
[00:59:05] Speaker A: We need to talk to Swizz and Timberland.
[00:59:07] Speaker B: We need to talk to them.
All right. We need to talk to them because
[00:59:11] Speaker A: I'm going to try to put a call in a favor. Cause I need to. We need to figure this out.
[00:59:14] Speaker B: I think these are very justifiable questions
[00:59:17] Speaker C: that people want to know that we.
[00:59:19] Speaker B: Yeah, like.
[00:59:20] Speaker A: Like what is. What are the rules of this shit? Like, what's the criteria? We need to know. So that way we. Cause now you can do versus scorecards. Like boxing. Oh, that was an uppercut. He landed. There was 23 landed punches. And you know what I'm saying? Like, it'd be like that. As opposed to it being like, n. Just arguing on my timeline. Like, you know what the fuck you talking about, old nigga? You Know what I mean? Like,
[00:59:44] Speaker B: Beauty and Black, season two, top tier television. Top.
You know what I love about this right now? Like. Cause it's like as my brother, as my boy, it wasn't shit. I could tell you to get you to go watch some fucking soap opera shit.
Like nothing. So I am so happy. Shout out to Sade for getting us them beauty and black interviews to force your ass to watch it. Cause now you see, it's so good.
[01:00:11] Speaker A: It's good. The writing is fantastic.
[01:00:14] Speaker B: Amazing.
[01:00:15] Speaker A: The character building, the world building is fantastic. Like, shout out to Mr. Tyler Perry, man. And you know what?
No, not shout out to Mr. Tyler Perry. Shout out to the cast.
[01:00:25] Speaker B: Shout out to the cast.
[01:00:26] Speaker A: Cause they acting they ass off. And yes, the script is good, the stories are good, the writing is amazing.
But it's them who are bringing these characters to life. Like when I'm seeing these dudes to the point where now I don't. This don't sound fucked up. But when I see the actors, I don't even see them as actors.
Like, nah, bro, you. Oh boy.
[01:00:48] Speaker B: I see them as my dysfunctional family.
They are doing so good on this role.
They sell they roles. And I feel like everything that people used to say about Tyler Perry, the acting is bad.
The writing isn't good.
It's too dramatic. It's not realistic. The hair is bad. Hair good. Writing good. The storyline makes sense.
[01:01:11] Speaker A: Realistic as hell.
[01:01:12] Speaker B: It's very realistic. And like you said, it's shot well.
[01:01:16] Speaker A: It's shot really well.
[01:01:17] Speaker B: And the budget look crazy.
[01:01:19] Speaker A: You know what's dope too, is that. And I know we gonna talk about this 50 Cent thing, but what I like about it is that I know he's shooting all this at his own studio.
Cause I know he has these backlots. And I've seen.
I'm a movie nerd. So there's a studio in Atlanta that they shoot all the Marvel films on. And I know that Tyler Perry wanted to get in on that business too. So they started shooting stuff with Tyler Perry. And so Tyler Perry Studios, it's in Atlanta. And as I'm watching it, I'm like, oh, that's. I know that. I know that scene because I be looking at drone footage. I'm a nerd. So I be looking at drone footage of Tyler Perry Studios and shit. I'm like, oh, they shot that right there in the code. I like nerding out in that way. And so when I'm watching the show, to me it just gives another level of interest. Yeah, that's dope to me that a black man was able to buy his studio and then shoot his own productions. And the productions are comparable to everything else you see on Netflix, in addition to the fact that it's number one on Netflix across every format.
[01:02:18] Speaker B: Nigga, they set a house on fire. Yeah, I knew the budget was crazy.
[01:02:22] Speaker A: Budget crazy.
[01:02:23] Speaker B: They out there wrecking cars I can't pronounce. Blowing up cars I can't pronounce.
[01:02:28] Speaker A: I ain't gonna lie though, if I had one critique. What is that? Car explosion. That shit was ass.
[01:02:33] Speaker B: You saw those ass.
[01:02:35] Speaker A: That car explosion was ass.
[01:02:36] Speaker B: I must have been high.
[01:02:37] Speaker A: Car explosion was ass. That shit looked real to me. Don't blow the car up. Just make we know what happened. Blow it up off camera. Cause when you blow it up, the cg, like, no disrespect, I want to be in a Tyler Perry production at some point. Just. I don't want no exploding cars.
[01:02:55] Speaker B: He chopped the body up.
[01:02:56] Speaker A: Yeah, that shit was crazy.
[01:02:57] Speaker B: He chopped the body up. And the body just sitting. The body just sitting in the shower. Like when I seize in my tub, when I'm cleaning my tub, the body's just sitting in there. I think the body's still in there right now. Did they ever go get it?
[01:03:11] Speaker A: No.
Well, no, the mom had the people come clean it up.
[01:03:14] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Cause that's when they caught her. When they caught. When he caught her on the camera. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:03:19] Speaker A: And also what I like about Beauty in Black is the storyline is so real.
Like, it's rooted in it's ground level. It's rooted. It ain't over the top. Like the movie. What's the movie with the casket. When we had.
[01:03:32] Speaker B: Oh, Something in Black. Love in Black.
Marriage.
[01:03:37] Speaker A: Divorce.
[01:03:38] Speaker B: Divorce in black. Yeah.
[01:03:39] Speaker A: Where they had to take him out the casket. Like, come on, bro, don't get me wrong. Craziest shit I done seen camera in 40 years, right?
Crazy. Took the nigga out the casket.
[01:03:51] Speaker B: Take him out the casket.
[01:03:52] Speaker A: And she took the dress off with a straight face and she just had on her, you know, like. Cause my grandmama used to have that shit on. That's the craziest shit I done seen on screen, hands down. But that's not believable. You know what I'm saying? But it was a scene that was needed for culture. Like, I fuck with it. But Beauty and Black, to me, the storyline is believable. If you go all the way back to the beginning of season one, Kimmi meeting Mallory and the way she Met people shitting on what you call a little girl in her or whatever. Like all that stuff is real and I have real world tangibles that I could tie to somebody I know that's been in these situations.
[01:04:30] Speaker B: It was even too a full circle moment when you. They tied season two back into season one. Like you said, like when she met Kimmi. I mean, when Kimmi met Mallory. But even. And we have an interview dropping with one of the characters soon.
But how they were all in that. When they were all in Kimmy's office and then Mallory was reading them like, no, you went through this.
[01:04:54] Speaker A: You da da da da da.
[01:04:55] Speaker B: You da da da da. You went through this. And angel da da da. He went through. You know, and it just, it was so crazy because that's actually how life be where it's like how we had the conversation with Bow Wow. Yeah. You don't even know that 10, 12 years ago that I made an appearance here and you influenced me. Now I'm interviewing you and you know, I have a job in what I wanted to do off the back of you being a role model, so to say. So being that she's working with Mallory and she looked up to Mallory and then Mallory boss. Mallory's such a boss ass bitch. Yeah, Mallory a boss baby.
[01:05:34] Speaker A: I fuck with. Where we headed to season three. They didn't confirm.
[01:05:38] Speaker B: They say the streets say. And when I say streets, I'm talking about Twitter. That season three is already shot, but we won't get it until 2027. And supposedly it only it took them five days to film it. Word that I believe.
[01:05:52] Speaker A: I believe that I done had multiple people tell us about Tyler Perry's shooting schedule. It's like, oh, you gotta come ready.
[01:05:59] Speaker B: We've had a lot of the cast.
[01:06:00] Speaker A: We have.
[01:06:01] Speaker B: We are only missing Kimmi, Kimmi. And another full circle moment. Obviously this is not in the script. I forget his name though. Mallory's husband. Yeah, he said that when he got the call to do that, he was doing Uber Eats and he didn't have no money in his account.
[01:06:19] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:06:19] Speaker B: Did you see that?
[01:06:20] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:06:22] Speaker B: That's really how it be.
[01:06:23] Speaker A: That's really how it be.
[01:06:24] Speaker B: That's really how it be. I want to talk to him.
[01:06:27] Speaker A: Yeah, me too.
[01:06:28] Speaker B: We got to get him. But we done had everybody.
[01:06:30] Speaker A: No, we can get them. That's if they come to la.
[01:06:33] Speaker B: Oh, it don't even got to be off of the back of Beauty, Beauty and Black. I want to talk to Debbie Morgan.
[01:06:41] Speaker A: Yeah, she's a go.
[01:06:42] Speaker B: Like I like I was Watching it and okay, obviously I know that she's been doing movies from. I think the first movie I can remember is Eva Badu or.
Yeah, that one.
[01:06:55] Speaker A: East Bayou. Yeah.
[01:06:56] Speaker B: That's the first thing that I could remember. I never even seen it. I just know that she's in it and then obviously loving basketball or whatever. So I know that she has like a long history of acting.
[01:07:07] Speaker A: That's her in love and basketball.
[01:07:09] Speaker B: She's a mom in love and basketball. I thought that was Alfre Woodard in love and basketball. Is that Debbie Morgan?
Omar Epps. Mama is Debbie Morgan.
[01:07:19] Speaker C: Oh, Omar Epps. I'm thinking about Sanaaatha Tanah Latha.
[01:07:22] Speaker A: Nuh.
[01:07:23] Speaker B: Omar is mom.
[01:07:24] Speaker C: You right.
[01:07:25] Speaker A: Damn. She damn her catalog long.
[01:07:27] Speaker B: I know it's crazy, bro.
[01:07:29] Speaker A: She was in Defender. She was in Ghost.
[01:07:31] Speaker B: But I think that power. This. She is in power. She is in power.
[01:07:36] Speaker A: She's in power.
She was in Coach Carter.
Mm. Damn.
Lovin basketball. Yep. Right here.
[01:07:46] Speaker B: It's extensive.
But this character, I think this is showing her full skill.
[01:07:54] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:07:55] Speaker B: The way that she played drunk.
[01:07:58] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:07:59] Speaker B: The way that she played when she was hurt, when she was like, take me to the hospital when they fucked her up.
Like she's doing an amazing job.
[01:08:09] Speaker C: She having fun too.
[01:08:10] Speaker B: She having fun for sure.
[01:08:12] Speaker A: You know what's crazy is I wanna
[01:08:13] Speaker B: talk to her so bad.
That might be my dream interview.
[01:08:16] Speaker A: Really? Yeah. Morgan.
[01:08:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:08:18] Speaker A: We gotta make that happen.
[01:08:20] Speaker B: I might cry.
[01:08:21] Speaker A: For real?
[01:08:22] Speaker B: Yeah. And it don't help that she look just like my granny.
[01:08:26] Speaker A: I think this, I think this is showing her her real like. Not that we haven't seen her talent or skill, but Debbie Morgan been cooking and at. She's 69 right now.
[01:08:35] Speaker B: She's 69 years old.
She does not look 69 years old.
[01:08:40] Speaker A: She's 69 years old. Getting it cracking. And you know what I like about her character on this show is it's so simple.
Like it's not. It's not. She's not over. It ain't hella dramatic. She just is really subtle and it's all in her micro expressions. Yeah, that's acting like that's. That's a different level of talent that I respect that so much.
[01:09:01] Speaker B: Yeah, I fuck with her. But while we talking about Tyler Perry, Mr. Perry 50 Cent just opened his film studio which is the second largest black owned production studio in the world.
[01:09:15] Speaker A: Hey, how you. Let me ask you a question.
[01:09:17] Speaker B: 956,000 square feet.
[01:09:20] Speaker A: Let me ask you a question.
Let's say somebody beefing with you? Somebody.
Y' all at it. I'm talking about full on beefing timeline, nigga. It's Dirty Mac. It's all kind of shit going on.
But the girl you beefing with, buying up everything, having the most success she ever had in her life. How you feel?
[01:09:44] Speaker B: I wouldn't beef with a bitch with Moshi.
I wouldn't. I wouldn't beef with a bitch with Moshi.
[01:09:51] Speaker A: I just wouldn't like, the amount of success 50 is having right now is unheard of to me. Because it's not like he did one big deal. Like, Dr. Dre got beats by Dream as a platform and as a hardware company, and he cashed out. Okay, cool. By the way, congrats to Dr. Dre. They just recognized him as a billionaire, boys in the billionaire's boy club recently in the recent Forbes list that came out, yeah, shout out to Dr. Dre. Because the deal that they presumably had before, like, it didn't all go to him and it kind of got messed up, whatever the case may be. But now he's recognized from the whites and Forbes as officially a billionaire, Right?
It wasn't like 50 did a deal like that. Like, he did the vitamin water back in the day. We all know that. That was like $400 million or whatever, not counting his pockets.
But to see him on a steady incline of insane success is crazy to me. Because it didn't just come from this one big endorsement deal. Like, you didn't just see, oh, 50 Cent did a Sunkist deal and they gave him a billion dollars or he did a Nike deal. It's like, no, nigga, he. He sold this TV show to Hulu. He sold this TV show to Disney. He sold this TV show to Netflix. He sold this one to Starz. Then he built a universe. Then he built another universe. You know what I mean? It's just like, damn.
To me, it's. And now he's got his own studio, his own film and TV studio, which I just spoke on, Tyler Perry's studios. And I'm a fan of these black entrepreneur men who are doing these things and making these strides.
Cause now you can shoot all your shit on your own property.
That's insane to me. Cause now you, as Nipsey was saying, now you fully vertically integrated. And I just think it's crazy to see. But I like that 50 is out loud about it. Because that's also showing other men from our communities like, hey, you could do this too. Yeah, that's what I like about it.
[01:11:43] Speaker B: Yeah, this is just dope. I'm just Excited to see how far he's gonna go. Like, how far this is gonna go.
And you know what? I've been wondering, and I actually was wondering this because Starz just charged me last night, and I'm only on Starz for power.
I don't watch nothing else on Stars.
[01:12:03] Speaker A: I ain't even finished watching Tommy yet.
[01:12:05] Speaker B: No. Oh, I finished. I'm thirsty when it drop. I'm on the way home watching it.
[01:12:10] Speaker A: Oh, shit.
[01:12:11] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm that thirsty for power. But I wonder if he's going to stay as Stars, or is everything gonna go to that. Remember that channel he got?
[01:12:20] Speaker A: Oh, he did. He do his.
[01:12:21] Speaker B: But where is the channel at?
[01:12:22] Speaker A: I don't know, but I know what
[01:12:24] Speaker B: you're talking about, because I don't. I'm sure he knows this, but I don't know. If Stars knows this, we'll all leave and follow 50. Yeah, we're gonna go exactly where Powell is. And I think I pay more for 50's channel.
[01:12:39] Speaker A: So if 50 put all his stuff on his own, like. Like you said, like a Zeus.
So, like. Or like Ray J. Like the Tronics network or something like that. So you said 50 put. If he had. This is 50 as a. As a network, as an app. And it was on television. It was on Roku. It was on everything.
You think people would like $10 a month?
[01:12:59] Speaker B: Yes.
$20 a month.
[01:13:02] Speaker A: Yeah. Cause he put out a lot of content.
[01:13:04] Speaker B: He has a lot of content.
[01:13:06] Speaker A: Especially if he bring that show, that Tariq and Tommy crossover show. Niggas paying for that. I might. I might pay for that.
[01:13:12] Speaker B: I pay for that.
[01:13:13] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying?
I give nigga $10.
[01:13:15] Speaker B: I would pay for each show individually.
[01:13:18] Speaker A: Damn.
[01:13:19] Speaker B: Like how itunes is.
[01:13:20] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, you thirsty?
[01:13:21] Speaker B: I'm thirsty, damn.
[01:13:24] Speaker A: Yeah, for the Tariq and Tommy crossover, I get a 15.99amonth.
[01:13:30] Speaker B: I'm just for the show.
[01:13:31] Speaker A: Just for the show.
[01:13:32] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:13:34] Speaker A: Cause I need that.
[01:13:35] Speaker B: How about you?
[01:13:38] Speaker A: I need that one for sure.
[01:13:39] Speaker B: How about you?
Okay, look, this was so crazy to me.
Well, actually. Let's go to rap.
[01:13:46] Speaker A: Let's go to rap.
[01:13:46] Speaker B: Let's go to rap. J. Cole.
[01:13:48] Speaker A: Oh, shit.
[01:13:49] Speaker B: J. Cole.
I've seen fans say that they want to stop. They want these podcasters, media personalities, to stop putting a microphone in front of J. Cole.
[01:14:03] Speaker A: You know, the funniest one to me is the hoodie adjusting.
You ain't seen the counter. They did of how many times J. Cole said boom, boom, boom. And how many times J. Cole adjusted his.
[01:14:14] Speaker B: You want that I'm not playing with you. I'm so freaking serious right now. When I was watching the Kammer interview, that's what let me know that J. Cole was a nigga.
[01:14:22] Speaker A: What?
[01:14:23] Speaker B: Cause the way he tell his stories, like, boom, boom, boom.
[01:14:25] Speaker A: So boom, boom, boom.
[01:14:26] Speaker B: That's regular.
We start our stories off with, all right, so boom.
If I don't start the story off with all right, so boom. Yeah, it's not about to hit.
[01:14:38] Speaker A: All right, so why do we do that?
[01:14:40] Speaker B: I don't know.
Professionally I've been. I stopped doing it like on camera and stuff because it's not like, obviously it's not elegant or, you know, whatever the case. But I guess neither is yelling, standing in the chair yelling, shut the fuck up and rap. But all right, so boom. Just I don't even know where. How we started that. I don't know who's the originators of all right, so boom. I don't know the origin of it or anything, but that's how you tell a story.
[01:15:07] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:15:07] Speaker B: All right, so boom.
So I'm over, right?
Even the way that he goes into detail, that's how we tell stories in the hood.
[01:15:19] Speaker A: I heard him say whoopty woo. Like, yeah. So whoopty whoops.
[01:15:22] Speaker B: And the person that I'm talking to knows what whoopty whoop is.
[01:15:29] Speaker A: Facts.
[01:15:30] Speaker B: You know what? Whoopty whoopty boom.
[01:15:32] Speaker A: Whoopty whoop. Jumped on the phone and was like, swoop, swoop whoop. And then so and so was like, whoop, whoop whoop. And then I was like, all right,
[01:15:38] Speaker B: so boom, whatever, whatever. And then boom. And then I had one up. You know where da da da da. Like right there, right? Uh huh. Cause when you tell stories, you don't even finish the sentence.
The motherfucker you talking to. Know what you're saying?
[01:15:53] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:15:53] Speaker B: Like that's where we learned that that's hood shit.
That's some hood shit.
[01:16:00] Speaker A: All right, so I want you to finish your J. Cole thing. But I want to point this out. Cause I was having a conversation with some people about how we talk.
And I was like, I watched this thing on.
[01:16:14] Speaker B: It's you adjusting your shirt for me, right?
[01:16:16] Speaker A: I watched this thing. I watched this thing about where this dude, basically he was from LA and he moved to the south.
And he was a 911 operator. And the person was calling in, they was just saying. He was like, I can't. Basically he was supervisor. And the person on the phone, the operator was like, I can't understand what this person is Saying. And he picked up and he was listening. He's like, oh, I'll take this call. And he took it personally. And he's like, look. So boom. So cuz went over there and he told cuz, look, cuz, I ain't going for that type of shit. So cuz did this and he wrote. And he was taking notes and wrote down the whole story of what happened. And the person was like, how did you understand? He was like, I don't know how I understand. I just know what he said.
[01:16:58] Speaker B: It's easy.
It's so easy.
[01:17:02] Speaker A: Like, it's just funny to me. When you said that, I was like, damn. Like, that's a real thing.
[01:17:07] Speaker B: That's how we tell stories. And don't y' all lucky he's sitting down, because when you tell the story, you gotta move around, like. And then, boom. And then da da. And then I'm like.
[01:17:17] Speaker A: And then I'm finna go to the house.
[01:17:19] Speaker B: Yeah, you.

I forgot which show he was on on this conversation, but it was about. He said that in his music, when he raps, and he says that I am the best rapper. I'm the best, you know, to ever do it.
He doesn't actually believe it.
[01:18:10] Speaker A: Yeah, so I'm gonna read. I wanna quote it because this was important.
J. Cole admits that he is not five take. Okay, here we go. Why is he. Why J. Cole is not the best rapper?
During an episode of The Wave original, 7pm in Brooklyn. Shout out to Carmelo Anthony. Shout out to my dude Cas, too.
They asked a question. Do you think you're the best rapper alive?
Cole said, More. Okay, hold on. I want to quote him, bro. It's a nigga named Black Thought. So he gave credit to Black Thought that exists. It's a nigga named Lupe Fiasco. He gave credit to Lupe Fiasco that exists. It's niggas that own. It's niggas that, on any given day, even my peers, Drake or Kendrick, where it's like, yo, I know any given day I could show up to the studio and get these niggas and get these niggas 80. He was a basketball versus. He could drop 80 points on these niggas. But I know they could show up. God damn ass.
I know they could show up on any day in the studio and give me 80, and I might only have 30. In reality, do I walk around this earth like there's no. Like, there's no nigga better than me in real life. No N. J. Cole.
No N. I can't get in the studio with Black Thought and just give me. And he just gave me 30. And I'm sitting there like, I got 25 for you. So he was trying to.
Cause I don't like the narrative that was painted. Like, J. Cole doesn't think he's dope. That's not what he's saying. He was saying that I believe, like, he knows who he is. That's clear. Cause the way he talk on his records, if you listen to all his music, you could tell, like, he wants to be competitive in the barfest. Cool.
But he was saying, hey, it's these other niggas that exist. That on any given day, they could be the best rapper alive as well.
I'm not saying I'm the best rapper alive. I'm saying that on any given day, any N won, Whoever have. Whoever put 80 points on the board can be the best rapper alive. That's kind of the nuance of what he was saying, right? So the J. Cole stands, and the people who are really like, I fuck with Cole. Cole is my guy. Or Irene that work with us, you know, they're Cole people.
Nah, they don't want to hear that shit from Cole. They want to hear him pop out on the show. I'm the best rapper. Like, I'm that guy. Whatever. Pop it how other people pop it.
But the only thing to me that I didn't, I found inconsistent about Cole is when he go in that booth, he talk tough.
He gets all of it all. Like, he talks. He talks that shit in the booth. Then when you have a conversation with him, it's like, nah, bro, this is what it is, and this is what it is. And, you know, whatever. I think that Cole is just.
I don't know how to say it. It's gonna come off as disrespectful. I think Cole is caught in this period of time where, when he was coming up, it was like, what you do in the booth is all that matters.
And when you come out the booth.
I think Cole gets caught up between being Superman and Clark Kent. In real life, he's just Clark Kent. He really just wanna be Clark Kent. He wanna ride his bike to the Daily Bugle and do regular nigga shit, right?
But it's like the people believe that they know you Superman already.
So you go in the booth and you be Superman. You drop the music, and then you wanna go back to being Clark Kent. I think that he doesn't realize you can't do that nowadays, okay? If that makes sense.
[01:22:01] Speaker B: Everything you said makes sense, okay? But I think that J. Cole is very, very self aware.
[01:22:09] Speaker A: So you think he's more self aware than I'm giving him credit for.
[01:22:11] Speaker B: I think he's self aware. I think he's a human who realizes with this conversation itself, there are people that are better than me because there are people that I'm fans of.
[01:22:23] Speaker A: Got you.
[01:22:24] Speaker B: So I would never sit and say, I am the best media personality, radio personality, when somebody who I look up to, like Sway, Charlamagne, Big Boi, Angela Yee, Angie Martinez exists.
[01:22:37] Speaker A: Yeah, I feel you.
[01:22:38] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? Like, these other people who I look up to exist. So how would I say that I'm better than them when these are people that I'm fans of?
[01:22:47] Speaker A: That makes sense.
[01:22:48] Speaker B: This is not an iPhone.
This not an iPhone where one got better features than, you know, than the other one, where it just keeps progressively, you know, updated and stuff. We're fucking humans. So as a human, I do know that there are people, okay? Not me.
If I ask myself, is it another bitch better than me in la? It's not.
[01:23:11] Speaker A: Right?
[01:23:12] Speaker B: You know, it's not. But in the world, it absolutely is. Because there are other people who I admire. I Admire Lauren.
Lauren LaRosa. You know, I admire, like I said, Angie Martinez, Angela Yee. Like, I admire these people. So obviously, if these people have things that I like or that I think that I can work on or that are better, that'll be something that would make me better. So how can I look at these people who perform better than me in my eyes, because I admire them and say that I'm the best.
Do I want to hear a N go in the booth and say, yeah, I'm mid. I'm da da, da. No, I want to hear you popping and say, you the best. You know, that you the best rapper that exists because that's you popping it. You telling your truth. I mean, it's not your truth, but it's cap. It's not your truth. It's Cap. But it's a character.
[01:24:03] Speaker A: It's entertaining.
[01:24:04] Speaker B: Cap, would that motivate you?
[01:24:06] Speaker A: Yes.
[01:24:08] Speaker B: If he said I'm it.
[01:24:09] Speaker A: Oh, no, that wouldn't motivate me. No.
[01:24:11] Speaker B: When Jay Z said, one ain't enough, I need two, I thought that too.
[01:24:14] Speaker A: Facts.
[01:24:15] Speaker B: I do need two of them.
[01:24:16] Speaker A: Facts.
[01:24:17] Speaker B: But if Jay Z said, I really don't need two, I only need one because it's a better financial decision.
[01:24:24] Speaker A: I feel you.
[01:24:24] Speaker B: It's more cost effective if I get one. You get what I'm saying?
[01:24:27] Speaker A: I feel you.
[01:24:27] Speaker B: Like, I don't want to hear that shit.
[01:24:28] Speaker A: So the music is evoking a certain emotion that we need.
[01:24:31] Speaker B: Exactly. Exactly. And Kanye said we're all self conscious. I'm just the first to admit it. People on the Internet have a problem with admitting that they're imperfect. And they want us as public figures to say that we're this. They want to see us pop it. They want to see us cuss people out. They want to see us get into it. All this shit. At the end of the day, we all breathe, bleed, and eat and shit the same.
[01:24:54] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:24:55] Speaker B: So if he feels like that there's somebody that's better than him, that's because he look up to these people or he admire these people that he thinks are better than him. So I can't honestly say that I'm this or I'm that when there's another N that I look up to or that I admire.
[01:25:11] Speaker A: Yeah. They still around, too. It ain't like they gone.
[01:25:14] Speaker B: Exactly.
[01:25:14] Speaker A: They still here.
[01:25:15] Speaker B: Exactly.
[01:25:16] Speaker A: What? This stood out to me, though. And I don't want to create no drama, no mess. But I've been noticing, like, when he talk about, like, okay, I don't remember where I saw it, but somebody. People were giving us saying that we be babying Cole. Like, we be kind of like coddling him and stuff like that.
[01:25:34] Speaker B: We as a culture or we as me and you?
[01:25:35] Speaker A: I think both. Oh, okay. Like, just kind of treating Cole like he not a grown man with intention to hold Cole accountable. In my opinion, it would be more like what you just said. Like, yeah, we want to hear you pop that shit in the booth.
But then at the same time, it's like, how do you then do? Like, can you do both? Can you come out of the booth and be like, ah, that's all Cap. Like, I'm selling music.
[01:26:03] Speaker B: I think that every person.
I think that every. Any person that knows how to fight can get beat up by somebody else.
[01:26:13] Speaker A: Agreed.
[01:26:15] Speaker B: But the nigga if you know that there's somebody out here that can beat your ass, you're not walking around saying, I know it's a whole bunch of niggas that can whoop my ass. You're going to say, nigga, what's up?
[01:26:25] Speaker A: Oh, okay.
[01:26:26] Speaker B: You know, you still gonna pop it. You're still gonna be aggressive and things like that. Like. But in the back of your mind, you know that whoopty whoop over there. All right, so boom. This same thing that we was.
[01:26:34] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:26:35] Speaker B: All right, so, boom.
[01:26:36] Speaker A: Finna get up over there.
[01:26:37] Speaker B: Whoop.
[01:26:38] Speaker A: I'm gonna get up on this nigga.
[01:26:40] Speaker B: You know that the N squabble probably better than yours. Yeah, but you're not gonna say that. But in the back of your head, you know that. But you're still gonna participate and perform and get cracking, you know, Then that's probably the most hoodest example.
[01:26:54] Speaker A: So then what. So then what should Cole say in response to something like that?
[01:26:58] Speaker B: What should he say?
[01:27:00] Speaker A: So the question is. And I'm gonna ask you. I'm gonna ask you. You answer as that version of Cole.
[01:27:04] Speaker B: Okay.
[01:27:05] Speaker A: The question is, do you think you're the best rapper alive? Answer as Cole.
[01:27:12] Speaker B: Am I answering on a song or. I'm answering in an interview?
[01:27:15] Speaker A: In an interview.
[01:27:16] Speaker B: No. Cause a nigga named Black Thought and Lupe Fiasco exist.
[01:27:19] Speaker A: Got you on a song.
[01:27:21] Speaker B: Yes.
[01:27:24] Speaker A: That's confusing to most people.
[01:27:27] Speaker B: It should be. And a lot of N is rapping about guns and cars they don't have.
[01:27:32] Speaker A: Agreed.
I agree with you.
[01:27:35] Speaker B: It should be. A lot of this shit niggas are saying in songs is not real.
[01:27:38] Speaker A: I agree with you.
[01:27:39] Speaker B: Niggas is rapping about. I know. Nigga rapping about. You didn't catch.
[01:27:43] Speaker A: Okay, so this brings me to my. To the. To the next point. I think that Cole gets put on a different pedestal than other artists. Like, other rappers. Like, N. Don't expect Cole to lie, even though Cole's human. And Cole will tell you, I'm not perfect. DOT has a whole song called Savior.
[01:28:03] Speaker B: We're treating him saying I'm not the best rapper alive as him saying I'm not good.
[01:28:09] Speaker A: No, no, no, no.
That was my opening statement is. I agree with that.
I'm not saying that he's not good.
[01:28:15] Speaker B: Not. We like me and you.
[01:28:17] Speaker A: Yeah, I know.
[01:28:17] Speaker B: We like a culture.
[01:28:19] Speaker A: Yeah. The culture is treating this like he's saying he's not that nigga. I disagree. That's not what he's saying.
[01:28:24] Speaker B: There's somebody that's better than me.
[01:28:25] Speaker A: Correct. That's all he's saying.
They took it like that, but that's because they're emotionally invested. And that's my point. People are so invested in. I think certain artists. I don't think that Lil Pump gets the same ado that Cole gets, where it's like, I can't believe Lil Pump would say that.
He doesn't get that. I think there are certain artists, Cole, Dot, Drake, a couple other ones who get that, where it's like, I ain't you.
You don't really expect a N to be capping.
You know what I mean? Like, and I think they've put themselves in those positions, and that's why they fight against it so hard. Because it's like, doc got the song I am not your savior. Like, I'm not just. I go to therapy, I got infidelity problems. Like, he'll take, like. You know, that's the whole Mr. Morale shit. I think Cole has been fighting this, and now it's going back to my Clark Kent thing. I think Cole has been fighting this thing of, bro, I'm a rap fan. I'm a rap nerd. I just want to go in the booth, I want to get off my shit, and I want to come out, and I want to go ride my bike and be with my wife and my kids.
I think that's the push and pull that he's having. And I think that's why this even became a story, is because people are so invested in the Superman in the booth that they won't let him be Clark Kent. That's what I'm saying.
[01:29:47] Speaker B: Superman had weaknesses.
[01:29:49] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. Kryptonite. But I don't know what that would be for Cole.
[01:29:53] Speaker B: I don't know.
[01:29:54] Speaker A: A rap beef.
[01:29:59] Speaker B: I just think that. With, like.
With public figures or, like, with, like. Well, let's just say J. Cole. Specifically with J. Cole. It's just like, everybody's just so goddamn tough on him when he's actually speaking from an honest perspective. Like, if I'm honest with y' all and saying, now, if the cap was the storytelling, then that would be different. Like, nigga, that. You didn't drive that car. You didn't. You know, like, that didn't happen to you. Whatever the story is, the person that he supposedly was subbing on the project.
[01:30:31] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:30:31] Speaker B: Like, if this nigga never didn't exist or something like that. And it's like, you done told this damn story about a person, about somebody who doesn't Is not even real, then. Yeah, but it's like, if the cap that we're calling is you're saying, I think that there's somebody better than me, and I don't think I'm the best. I just think that's a bit extreme.
[01:30:48] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:30:49] Speaker B: Because he's not one of one. Like, he's in. He's a rapper. It's 50,000 of y'. All. Like, if I.
There's.
If you don't have. If you have an idol, you're gonna assume you're gonna feel like your idol's better than you, period.
[01:31:07] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:31:08] Speaker B: If there's anybody. Anybody listening right now.
[01:31:10] Speaker A: That's true.
[01:31:10] Speaker B: That's mad at Cole. If you idolize somebody, you think they're better than you, or you wouldn't idolize them.
[01:31:16] Speaker A: Right.
[01:31:17] Speaker B: Cause that would be. They would be beneath you.
So if Black Thought, and I don't know if this is his favorite rapper, but let's say that Black Thought is his favorite rapper.
If that's my favorite person and I look up to him, I admire him, I idolize him, whatever the case, then how would I be honest with myself saying I'm better than a nigga that I look up to?
[01:31:37] Speaker A: And you don't even believe that shit yourself.
[01:31:39] Speaker B: Exactly. But if I'm rapping and I'm flexing, fuck you niggas. What he say? Just because the gun. You don't shoot the gun don't mean it ain't deadly. Like, you know, like, if I'm getting shit off like that. But also to me, J. Cold on. I was about to say something. I was about to be crazy. Let me clean it up.
Let me clean it. He's not an aggressive rapper.
[01:32:00] Speaker A: Bullshit.
[01:32:02] Speaker B: You think he aggressive.
[01:32:03] Speaker A: Cole be aggressive rapper. But it ain't tough talk. I think you saying. I think you mean tough talk.
[01:32:08] Speaker B: Okay, he not tough.
[01:32:09] Speaker A: Yeah, he not a tough. He don't talk tough, but he's an aggressive rapper for sure.
[01:32:12] Speaker B: But he don't rap. Like, I'm like, yeah, nigga. Like, I'm socking shit out, you know?
[01:32:18] Speaker A: Like, I ain't never heard Cole rap about a fade.
[01:32:22] Speaker B: We just did. Yeah, he did.
[01:32:23] Speaker A: Well, I'm saying before that.
[01:32:24] Speaker B: Before that.
[01:32:25] Speaker A: Yeah, before. Before this album, I ain't never heard. And this is last album. Like, okay, he got that off.
[01:32:32] Speaker B: You know what's so crazy? While we talking about J. Cole, I went back to J. Cole's catalog. I forgot how much of a fan I was early on.
Lost Ones.
Baby girl, I can't imagine what it's like for you.
Like, I got you pregnant outside there's a life in you. He was fucking cooking.
[01:32:51] Speaker A: He was cooking.
[01:32:52] Speaker B: I know you wonder if this gonna make me think about wifing you. Like, if. What he say? Like, if you had my first child, would I spend my whole life with you? That's a very freaking impactful song, I think.
[01:33:02] Speaker A: Okay, so let me ask you this, then. What A J. Cole versus.
[01:33:08] Speaker B: Oh, God, we talked about it.
[01:33:09] Speaker A: Who?
[01:33:10] Speaker B: Wale.
[01:33:11] Speaker A: Oh, okay. I forgot about that.
Cause I don't.
Cole's catalog is extensive, and it's dope. Like, I'm a Friday Night. I like Friday Night Lights. You went back to.
You went back through everything.
[01:33:25] Speaker B: I went back to the first one, and I listened to the Come Up. I listened to Lost Ones, the Come up, the Warmup. I listened to lost ones 50 fucking times in the car yesterday.
[01:33:36] Speaker A: Damn.
Yeah. I don't know what. Do you have a favorite J. Cole album? Nay?
[01:33:41] Speaker C: Ooh, probably. It's so tough. Cause mine are controversial. People don't like mine. It's between 2014. For your sales drive. And Is it For your eyes only?
[01:33:54] Speaker A: You like for your Eyes on.
[01:33:55] Speaker C: I loved for your Eyes.
[01:33:56] Speaker A: I hated for your Eyes.
[01:33:57] Speaker C: It was a lot of good storytelling and messaging in that one. That's why I like it. Like, it's. It's really very. Most of those songs are. Because that's what Neighbors is on. Neighbors is on that. Like, most of those songs on that. Neighbors are very good storytelling albums where it's just like, oh, that's. It's really creative and nice how you were able to sell this story, do this song. It's a fire song, and I can envision every single thing that you're talking about, and it's in a dope setup.
[01:34:24] Speaker B: That's. The neighbors think I'm selling dope. Yes. Yes. Y' all remember when. When Ghost Dead. The neighbors think I'm really ghost.
Well, motherfucker, I am.
You heard that beforehand. The neighbors think I'm really ghosts with Cole.
[01:34:42] Speaker A: Got 10 solo albums. I am.
[01:34:44] Speaker C: Yeah. Wale is the best, man.
[01:34:46] Speaker B: It's Wale, all right. Bet it's Wale. He had me in over there. I was 17.
I was 17 listening to Lost Ones.
[01:34:54] Speaker C: You should listen to. It's on the Born center album. You should listen to.
[01:34:57] Speaker B: Sparks Will Fly with Janae is Born Center. The one with the art is, like. It look like a sketch, like, cartoon. Yeah, that's when I fell off of him. Really?
[01:35:08] Speaker C: I like Born Center.
[01:35:09] Speaker B: That's when all the, like, he got the crown on and stuff. And the kids. That's when I fell off.
[01:35:12] Speaker A: Oh, no, no, no, no. That's kod, not that one.
[01:35:14] Speaker C: Oh, Born center is back in the day. Back in the day.
[01:35:17] Speaker A: You talking about kod? Yeah.
Okay. Anyway, so. Oh, some other music thing is Juvenile dropped his album. It's called Boiling Point. We was listening to some of it up here at the radio station. I'm really excited for Juvenile for a few reasons. One I know I seen he announced his tour, which is fire. I gotta go see Juvenile perform. I went to go see him in Manie Fresh, the last one last year, they put on a fire show. Like top tier show.
Standout thing for this album for Juvenile is Birdman is all over this album. You would think this was a cash money. They actually have a song on here called the Reunion. But Birdman did the intro on the album.
Mannie Fresh is all over the album.
BG is on the album. Jacques is on the album.
And then you also have Khaled and who else? D1 is on the album, which is interesting. And also Megan Thee Stallion. But we playing that song a lot up here.
I'm excited for Juvenile. Just cause one, he's an outstanding performer and there's a couple of joints on here.
[01:36:23] Speaker B: Shout out to juvie.
[01:36:24] Speaker A: So shout out to Juvenile. Go listen to that Boiling Point. It's out right now.
[01:36:27] Speaker B: So I have a report.
[01:36:29] Speaker A: Okay.
[01:36:29] Speaker B: And I need. I need your POV on this.
So according to Variety, a jury has ordered Meta and Google to pay 3 million to a 20 year old woman who alleged that she became addicted to Instagram and YouTube as a child.
Where the class action lawsuit? Cause I'm addicted too, Cap.
[01:36:52] Speaker A: I don't wanna.
I've been avoiding like this whole thing because to me it lacks accountability on the user end of things. It's kinda like. I don't. You probably too young to remember, but. And I'm probably gonna get flamed for this again, but whatever.
There was this person who sued McDonald's back in the day for making them fat.
[01:37:14] Speaker B: Mm. Like, bro, I'm very surprised at your take on that because it's all about the facts.
[01:37:22] Speaker A: Okay, what are the facts?
[01:37:23] Speaker B: The facts is y' all made me fat.
[01:37:25] Speaker A: No, the facts is you brought your ass up here, kept buying Big Macs
[01:37:29] Speaker B: and the food caused me to gain weight.
[01:37:33] Speaker A: You kept coming up here buying Big
[01:37:34] Speaker B: Macs and the food caused me to gain weight.
[01:37:40] Speaker A: Shut up, Nate.
[01:37:41] Speaker C: Y' all are nice. Y' all aren't gonna agree.
[01:37:43] Speaker A: We're not gonna agree with it.
[01:37:44] Speaker B: Do Red Bull give you wings?
[01:37:46] Speaker A: Sure,
[01:37:49] Speaker C: essentially.
[01:37:50] Speaker A: Essentially. I Don't know what the fuck it give you, but $3 million.
What?
[01:37:59] Speaker B: I didn't grow wings drinking it.
[01:38:01] Speaker A: Oh, you mama like physically giving you wings.
[01:38:04] Speaker B: No, that was they lawsuit.
[01:38:07] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah. They don't give you wings.
[01:38:09] Speaker B: It's all about the facts in court.
[01:38:11] Speaker A: Okay, so you saying the food made you fat or you eating the food made you fat?
[01:38:16] Speaker B: It's the same thing.
[01:38:17] Speaker A: It's the same thing.
[01:38:18] Speaker B: You just said the same thing. You remixed it.
[01:38:21] Speaker A: So are you addicted to social media or did social media make you addicted to social media?
[01:38:26] Speaker B: You literally said the same thing.
[01:38:28] Speaker A: No, that's not the same thing.
[01:38:29] Speaker B: How it's not the same thing.
[01:38:31] Speaker A: That's in court. It's called a lot. Well, she won, so fuck it. Apparently these judges are on her side.
[01:38:37] Speaker B: Why are we acting like social media?
[01:38:38] Speaker A: I mean, the jury. I'm sorry, the jury's on her side.
[01:38:40] Speaker B: Social media uses tools and techniques to keep you on your phone.
[01:38:44] Speaker A: Agreed.
[01:38:45] Speaker B: That's actually a fact.
[01:38:47] Speaker A: Agreed.
[01:38:47] Speaker B: We're talking about McDonald's right now. When you get in the car, it's probably gonna pop up on your feed.
[01:38:53] Speaker A: Put the phone down.
[01:38:55] Speaker B: I'm addicted.
[01:38:56] Speaker A: Put it down.
[01:38:58] Speaker B: See, you don't know addiction. You don't know addiction.
[01:39:01] Speaker A: I do. I'm addicted to sugar.
[01:39:04] Speaker B: Can you put it down for a day or two?
Some people addicted to Instagram.
[01:39:10] Speaker A: So you saying that the company is at fault? I could sue a company around for making me addicted to sugar.
[01:39:15] Speaker B: You could try if you can prove it.
[01:39:17] Speaker A: That's so stupid.
[01:39:18] Speaker B: You're able to prove that social media made you addicted to it because of the things that they have in place to keep you on your phone.
[01:39:27] Speaker A: Okay, so look, let me read a couple of bullet points.
[01:39:31] Speaker B: Do you know that your Twitter, if you go to the. What is it? Not the it's not called Explore side of Twitter. What is it called?
[01:39:40] Speaker C: Trending.
[01:39:40] Speaker B: The trending side of Twitter. If you go on that side. If I share. This literally happens to me every day. If I share one post about something, if I go back, it's going to be 50 more posts about the same thing. It's keeping me hooked. And then what I'm going to do. Share it again. What you going to do? You going to click on it? You might share it to somebody else. And then now your timeline is filled with their for you side. The for you side.
[01:40:01] Speaker A: Yeah. It's social engineering on Twitter. Yeah.
[01:40:04] Speaker B: So they're actually putting things in place to keep you on the Internet. That's why we have carousel posts now. For you to continue to swipe over, swipe over, swipe over. To keep you on the app. That's why now it went from 10 carousel posts to 20.
[01:40:18] Speaker A: Agreed.
[01:40:18] Speaker B: Cause they wanna keep you on the app.
[01:40:20] Speaker A: I know every app wants to keep you on the app.
My point is, put the motherfucking phone down.
[01:40:28] Speaker B: They didn't create it for you to put your phone down.
[01:40:30] Speaker A: That's why you need to put your phone down.
[01:40:32] Speaker B: They didn't create it for you to put your phone down.
[01:40:35] Speaker A: Okay, so look, in this case, I want to. Here we go. Meta was ordered to pay 70% of the damages and Google is responsible to pay 30. The remaining 30% of the damages. So out of that $3 million to a 20, 20 year old woman, Meta's paying 70% of that and Google's. So that basically means that Instagram was more at fault than the other company. Right?
So if that's the case, where are the TikTok lawsuits?
[01:41:06] Speaker B: They probably coming.
[01:41:08] Speaker A: So we need to get ahead of this.
[01:41:09] Speaker B: Then I asked, where's the class action?
[01:41:11] Speaker A: No, no, no. Fuck you looking out for everybody else, we need to sue TikTok.
[01:41:16] Speaker B: I'm not addicted to TikTok.
[01:41:18] Speaker A: Nigga, you not supposed to say that. She fucked the play up already.
[01:41:21] Speaker B: You don't even agree with it.
[01:41:22] Speaker A: It don't matter if I agree with it.
[01:41:24] Speaker B: You announced the play on live air. Yeah. You said, what's up with TikTok?
Nigga Lee gave the play. You not finna fuck with my creator. Awards, Hello.
[01:41:33] Speaker A: Okay, Are you addicted to the awards on TikTok?
[01:41:36] Speaker B: Hell yeah.
See, that's why I'm cutting them clips. I cut them clips in my sleep. What's your name?
[01:41:41] Speaker A: Motherfucker's working now. We good. So now we can sue.
[01:41:44] Speaker B: I'mma take it to the money.
[01:41:46] Speaker A: So if they didn't pay, then it wouldn't matter. You wouldn't care.
[01:41:48] Speaker B: Shit, I just got on Facebook today. Cause I got a little.
[01:41:53] Speaker A: I locked that set.
[01:41:54] Speaker B: They sent me some money.
[01:41:55] Speaker A: Yeah, Facebook paid better than everybody.
[01:41:57] Speaker B: Let me go give you some more clips. They paying.
[01:41:59] Speaker A: Facebook paid better than everybody.
[01:42:00] Speaker B: Yeah, I didn't know this. Yeah, I didn't even know this. They trying to keep up.
[01:42:04] Speaker A: If you put native shit up on Facebook, they pay better than everybody.
[01:42:07] Speaker B: But you know why? To keep you here.
[01:42:08] Speaker A: To keep you on the platform.
[01:42:09] Speaker B: To keep you on the platform. So if I could prove, and you can prove that y' all doing this to keep me on the platform. If I can prove that, I'm sure that there's some formula within the app system that her legal team was able to prove that they put in place to intentionally keep you hooked on the app.
You fucking won.
[01:42:35] Speaker A: Okay, so this is. We need to figure out what our move is. Because if I can't beat him, then we finna get rich off of them.
[01:42:42] Speaker B: Who you gonna try to beat, though?
[01:42:45] Speaker A: Cognitive thought process. People rationalizing that they have their own addictions and need to get off social media.
[01:42:50] Speaker B: This like you driving your Tesla and you got it on auto and it rams into the back of a car.
[01:42:58] Speaker A: I'm at fault?
[01:43:00] Speaker B: You at fault?
[01:43:01] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:43:01] Speaker B: No, you're not. Your car's on autopilot.
[01:43:04] Speaker A: I'm still at fault.
It say in the fine print, like, if I put my. My car driving by itself, I'm still at fault until they change to level five.
[01:43:14] Speaker B: If your car crashes on autopilot, you're at fault.
[01:43:18] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:43:18] Speaker B: You're about to make me call you something.
[01:43:22] Speaker A: What?
[01:43:22] Speaker B: No, you're not at fault.
[01:43:24] Speaker A: Why?
[01:43:24] Speaker B: It's on autopilot.
[01:43:27] Speaker A: I'm talking about legally. I'm still at fault.
[01:43:29] Speaker B: Okay. You're responsible for the car that your car hit? Yes. Can you sue Tesla? Yes.
[01:43:36] Speaker A: Mm, mm, mm, mm. They put it in the thing.
