Speaker 2: Let's go to the week. Saginaw Views, your week.
00:00:41
Speaker 3: I had a chill week. How was yours?
00:00:42
Speaker 2: Mine was cool.
00:00:44
Speaker 1: Just doing, you know, back and forth to hospital stuff.
00:00:47
Speaker 2: I'm really disappointed in our health care system. It's just like.
00:00:52
Speaker 1: The more I learn about it, the more I realize how bad it is. It's just because we, well, I don't know. You don't really go to the doctor often like I don't really go to the doctor often.
00:00:59
Speaker 2: So like when I.
00:01:00
Speaker 1: Go, I realize how bad our shit is like in this country. And it's just like when I was talking to the firefighters recently, they were just telling me that they learn more about how to fix the fire engines than they do about like helping us, like helping people and stuff like that. And then as far as like within the hospital system, like I didn't know that the doctors be beefing.
00:01:20
Speaker 3: How you get into their business like that?
00:01:23
Speaker 1: I was in there for a long time laying on the bed. And so I'm inquisitive. I'm asking questions. And so I had to go because I have to go see three different doctors. They did an ultrasound.
00:01:31
Speaker 2: I did an MRI.
00:01:32
Speaker 1: I sat with the x-ray techs. So as they're doing my MRI stuff, because they had me. Remember the brace I had on, like the leg brace thing when you pick me up? The other doctor was like, no, no, take that shit off. And I'm like, I've been in this for five days. And they were like, no, we don't want you in that. The emergency room doctors don't know what they're talking about. and I was like okay and then when you talk to the specialist they like oh them doctors don't know what they talking about either so it's like this internal like competition amongst each other it's like I'm not really tripping on y'all what y'all got going on I just need to know about me yeah trying to figure out what's going on but like the more I'm like starting to like talk to all these different people I'm just like our system is kind of bad not kind.
00:02:13
Speaker 3: Of bad it's really bad where do you stand right now.
00:02:16
Speaker 1: Um I go tomorrow um to get my results of my MRI. The x-rays came back. Everything was, nothing was broken.
00:02:24
Speaker 2: Nothing.
00:02:25
Speaker 1: They found a little chip, but it wasn't nothing crazy. It wasn't like a fracture, but they did an MRI to determine if my meniscus or my ACL or anything was damaged or torn. So I get those results tomorrow, but they don't, the, the, the, what's funny is the orthopedic doctor who works on knee. He was like, I don't think you broke, I don't think you ripped nothing, but I'm gonna run, I'm gonna run the MRI anyway.
00:02:48
Speaker 2: But he was just eyeballing. He's like, nah, you good.
00:02:50
Speaker 1: I'm like, nah, put me in the machine, bro. Like, so he was like, so it's like, also, I want to encourage people, if you don't know to advocate for yourself, like if you don't know what to do when you go in there and say and stuff like that, they can kind of just like, you know what I mean?
00:03:06
Speaker 2: Just kind of pass you off type shit.
00:03:07
Speaker 1: So like my mom had a operation, I think for fibroids and stuff like that.
00:03:11
Speaker 2: And I was on top of that.
00:03:12
Speaker 1: Like, hey bro, like, Like ask these questions and say this and do this and stuff like that. It's just if you don't know what to ask and stuff, I just recommend people go in there with a game plan. Like don't go in there asking them because they don't fucking know.
00:03:25
Speaker 3: How long are you going to be on crutches?
00:03:28
Speaker 1: They said at least, well, the swelling needs to go down. So based on my research and what they told me, I probably have big, like my knee is really swollen still. So probably like another four weeks, maybe something like that.
00:03:40
Speaker 2: I don't know. But depending on now, if something is torn, then I got to have surgery. And that's a whole nother that's another six months. So we good, though.
00:03:52
Speaker 1: The the other thing that was interesting for me was like moving around like that was like us being outside was the most I moved around like and that was like.
00:04:02
Speaker 2: I didn't realize. I mean, I knew what I signed up for, but I didn't realize the toll it would take.
00:04:07
Speaker 3: How are people treating you while you're handicapped? This is good. Are you getting special treatment? Nah.
00:04:13
Speaker 2: Don't nobody care.
00:04:15
Speaker 3: You looked really, really sad sitting on the side of the stage. That's why I came and stood by you. For real? Yeah. I got really mad seeing you sitting right there. Why? You just look pitiful.
00:04:26
Speaker 1: It was because I was in pain. But also, like, I don't really take medicine like that. That's another. I mean, it's self-inflicted. I'm the one who failed. And nobody, like, a car. People are like, did you get hit by a car? Because that picture is. That I posted where you picked me up. It's like, bro, you look like you got hit by a car. Yeah, you look fucked up.
00:04:44
Speaker 2: So, it was all self-inflicted. So, I didn't expect that.
00:04:48
Speaker 3: That's not self-inflicted.
00:04:50
Speaker 2: It was an accident. But the pain was self-inflicted.
00:04:53
Speaker 3: The street ran into you.
00:04:55
Speaker 2: Okay, I like that. I like that.
00:04:56
Speaker 3: That's what happened.
00:04:57
Speaker 2: That's what happened, yeah.
00:04:58
Speaker 3: You ride your bike. You ride in your route. That street wasn't fucked. You better than me. I'll be suing the city.
00:05:04
Speaker 2: Okay. I mean, you probably could.
00:05:07
Speaker 3: That sounds like a nice lawsuit to me.
00:05:09
Speaker 2: I probably could. You should figure that out. You got to delete all them damn work pictures. I can't. I mean, they got footage and shit.
00:05:18
Speaker 3: No, they don't look at you. You can delete them work pictures.
00:05:21
Speaker 1: But you're probably right. But it wasn't that. It was just that I've only taken in what? It's been like a week and a half or something like that. I've only taken four ibuprofen, like total. And, like, I still didn't go get that, the Oxycontin that they prescribed to me.
00:05:38
Speaker 3: You still haven't picked up your prescription?
00:05:41
Speaker 2: Nah, it was just Oxycontin and Vicodin and shit. It was just. I don't want that shit. So, like, I'm cool.
00:05:47
Speaker 3: I'm not going to argue with you about drugs.
00:05:49
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, yeah, so, like, I just, yeah, I'm good, though. I'm straight.
00:05:58
Speaker 1: But I did enjoy the people, like, that we got to, like, interact with and stuff like that while we was outside. Also, I had a good, I had a chance to, the first time, my first time meeting Big Sean's son was because he had him at the show with him. And I was like, damn, like, we really old. Because, like, I remember when Sean didn't have a kid. And so now, like, seeing, like, the homies with kids and shit, it's like, oh, I'm really, like, um, for real. So it's just, like, it's a different type of perspective on, like, culture, I guess.
00:06:30
Speaker 2: But that was cool. What was your take on it?
00:06:33
Speaker 3: On Big Sean having a kid? I don't give a fuck.
00:06:40
Speaker 2: No, not like that, but just out being outside.
00:06:43
Speaker 3: But speaking of that though, it does, I'm not going to say it like it bothers me, but it does like, because I'm like one of the only few out of my friend group that don't have kids.
00:06:54
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:06:54
Speaker 3: So when I see people with their kids and like, like me and Desiree on the phone when she going to pick the girls up from school, you know? So it's like, you really a mom and you really out here doing mom things. Like you really got to be back home at a certain time so you can get up and take the kids to school. But that's just like another level of adulting to me.
00:07:14
Speaker 2: Being responsible for it.
00:07:16
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:07:16
Speaker 2: Hell yeah.
00:07:17
Speaker 3: I was watching Lauren's son. She was getting her hair done. So he was at my house. So I did his homework with him. I cooked him dinner, like got him cleaned up and everything. And I'm sitting there catering to a kid. Like I was catering to a child. And I'm like, do I want to do this? Do I really want to do this? Like, I don't know if that's for me.
00:07:40
Speaker 1: Hey, bro, I'm with you. I'm like, so I'm going to be honest with you. I went to go visit Chuck Dizzle, his family. And I'm over there. So he got two sons. You know, they have their own social media and everything. His little son, though, he just like, he'll just throw a race car at you. And just look at you.
00:08:01
Speaker 3: And you got to check that out.
00:08:02
Speaker 2: You just be like, yeah. Just car. Yeah.
00:08:05
Speaker 1: And it's just like, hey, my nigga, you good? So it's like, do I really want to sign? So I was talking to him and his wife about it. I'm like, I don't really know if I want to sign.
00:08:17
Speaker 2: Up for this.
00:08:17
Speaker 1: To be totally honest with you, like I might opt.
00:08:23
Speaker 2: Out of this.
00:08:24
Speaker 3: Yeah. I was even, when he was at my house, I was realizing how kid-friendly my house isn't. Like, I got a lot of mirrors in my house. A lot of, like, my fireplace is glass. Like, that's not even a normal thing. Like, this could be broken and cracked at any time, and it could hurt a child. You know? Even, like, running into, like, the edge of it, the corner of it, because it's just so sharp. And then, like, you playing with your toys. If he throw it, it hit anything. And then my white couch.
00:08:53
Speaker 2: Oh, the cloud couch.
00:08:54
Speaker 3: The, yeah.
00:08:54
Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, yeah, you got a real adult house.
00:08:57
Speaker 3: It's not kid-friendly at all.
00:09:00
Speaker 1: So when you be babysitting and dog-sitting and stuff, how do you manage that?
00:09:05
Speaker 3: The last time my dog sat, I didn't have the couch.
00:09:08
Speaker 2: Got you.
00:09:09
Speaker 3: I haven't dog-sat since I had the couch. But when I was just babysitting recently, I was just, you got to sit on the floor. You got to sit on the floor. I don't give a F about it. You sit on that floor.
00:09:20
Speaker 2: With a cup of juice?
00:09:22
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:09:22
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:09:23
Speaker 3: And he had to wait. Come a red juice on your couch. He had to wait to drink his juice. I said, I didn't even want the homework up there.
00:09:29
Speaker 2: Okay, so look.
00:09:30
Speaker 3: The pen and the pencil. Yeah. Yeah, I didn't want none of that up there.
00:09:34
Speaker 2: So what does Auntie Gina do, right?
00:09:36
Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
00:09:37
Speaker 2: He just running from being a kid, cup of red punch on the couch.
00:09:41
Speaker 3: He would never be able to even run. Yeah. It wouldn't even be at a run. No, you're going to stand here in front of me, and you're going to drink it right here in front of me.
00:09:52
Speaker 2: Right here on this floor.
00:09:53
Speaker 3: And yeah you i damn near got him next to rolling you're rolling bowl at.
00:10:00
Speaker 1: That's crazy i'm gonna put your juice in your bowl.
00:10:09
Speaker 3: Then i got all them damn pictures of me around the house i don't want the kid to see it oh you're gonna take your pictures down Oh, it's.
00:10:15
Speaker 2: A whole thing when you babysit.
00:10:17
Speaker 3: Yeah. I got an ass in one room. Another room is a bathing suit. Like, I have to take everything down. Because I don't want to be a bad influence on somebody's child.
00:10:30
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:10:31
Speaker 3: But yeah, T.T.
00:10:32
Speaker 2: Gina, my house not care-friendly.
00:10:35
Speaker 1: Hypothetically speaking, one of your nieces, nephews do spill some on your couch. What's your immediate reaction?
00:10:49
Speaker 3: The Ike turning me.
00:10:54
Speaker 2: Do you call the mom? Do you?
00:10:55
Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't even tell her.
00:10:57
Speaker 2: Really?
00:10:57
Speaker 3: Whatever your kid does in my presence is my responsibility.
00:11:02
Speaker 2: Damn, that's mature.
00:11:03
Speaker 3: I wouldn't even like, I'm not the, I wouldn't even want, like if I'm babysitting, like I would never be like, oh, send me some money to feed the kid.
00:11:12
Speaker 2: Gotcha.
00:11:12
Speaker 3: That's why I only babysit when I got money. If I'm broke, They can't come over here.
00:11:16
Speaker 2: Right, right, right.
00:11:16
Speaker 3: Because kids get around me. I just start buying them stuff. I've been buying roadblocks all month.
00:11:22
Speaker 2: Oh, for real?
00:11:23
Speaker 3: I didn't know that $ 25 made kids rich on roadblocks.
00:11:26
Speaker 2: They be rich on roadblocks.
00:11:27
Speaker 3: So I just been flexing, like, you little $ 20. You little 20 hots for the roadblocks. But, yeah, I wouldn't even tell them.
00:11:35
Speaker 1: What about when a kid, because I've had this happen to me when I was babysitting. What if the kid tells you something and tell you not to tell?
00:11:43
Speaker 3: I'm not telling.
00:11:44
Speaker 2: Okay.
00:11:44
Speaker 3: I'm not telling you. Would you?
00:11:47
Speaker 1: I think it depends on like how detrimental the situation is. Like if the kid was like telling me like this, what they told me, no, it wasn't that big a deal.
00:11:55
Speaker 2: It was like, yeah, I'm just got a secret. Like I didn't tell my mom I ate some cookies or whatever, like whatever. Cool.
00:12:01
Speaker 1: But like, what if the kid is allergic to certain shit? Like, then it'd be like, Hey bro, like you tripping.
00:12:07
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
00:12:08
Speaker 1: Wait, like if a kid have a peanut allergy, it's like, bro, you got a peanut allergy, bro. Like, I got to tell your mom you ate some peanuts while you was over here.
00:12:16
Speaker 3: But did he die?
00:12:18
Speaker 1: No, but they could have a reaction later. Like, you never know what that's going to do to him. I don't have an EpiPen.
00:12:22
Speaker 3: Well, I wouldn't hide that. I'm thinking you're talking about, like, if they wanted you to, like, keep a secret or something.
00:12:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm just saying, like— That's life or death. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It depends on, I wouldn't just say hard yes or hard no. I would say it just depends on what the secret is.
00:12:36
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, yeah. No, if, like, if the twins ask me, like, can you just please not tell my mommy? And it's something, like, I would, I really wouldn't tell Desiree. But I know my friend so much that it would depend on if I know she gonna blow up and she gonna fucking crash out, then I'm not, I'm not telling her. Or if it's something that I can handle without, you know, it get into her, I would probably eventually tell her once it's, like, all resolved. But I do truly believe that a child should have somebody that they can confine in. And I think that that just kind of teaches them, um, that teaches them trust that teaches them, um, a trust and not loyalty. That's not the right word, but it just teaches them that you can, you can confine in somebody and this is a safe space versus you thinking your whole life when you trying to hold secrets and stuff that this person is going to reveal, you know, or tell your secrets.
00:13:27
Speaker 2: Yeah. I agree with that.
00:13:30
Speaker 1: I don't think I had very many people like that.
00:13:33
Speaker 2: I think everybody would.
00:13:36
Speaker 1: Tell my mom stuff. Like, hey, you know what he told me. He told me so-and-so, or he did this. And it was one of them things where, for me, I didn't like that.
00:13:48
Speaker 3: Man, my sister used to tell on me all the time. I had told her one day, I wonder if my mama remembered this. My mama was pressing my daddy for some money, like pressing him, like, you need to give me this, you need to give me that, whatever, whatever. So I don't know if my daddy got his taxes or he had just cashed his check, but he showed me a guava bread. And, you know, when you're six years old, like, a large chunk of money look like a lot of money. You know, as an adult, you got to go pay rent, card, all these bills. So it really ain't even nothing. It's just, you know, what you got after taxes, before the bills. I told my sister, I said, I said, Candace, I said, my daddy lying. I said, I said, my daddy lying. He got a whole bunch of money. He just told mommy that he don't have no money. He got a whole bunch of money. She went in that room. She said, mommy, Reggie lying. Reggie lying. Regina just told me he got a whole bunch of money in his pocket. I think my mama started pocket, pocket. You know, my mama a gangster.
00:14:46
Speaker 2: She tapped his pocket.
00:14:49
Speaker 3: No, she gets cracking.
00:14:50
Speaker 2: God damn.
00:14:52
Speaker 3: No. Damn. No, she gets cracking.
00:14:56
Speaker 1: Yeah, see, that, so you thought that you could have this with your sister, and she went and just.
00:15:01
Speaker 3: Oh, and I knew from there, I'm not telling you nothing else.
00:15:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, blew the spot off.
00:15:04
Speaker 3: Ain't told her, didn't tell her. I was probably like six years old. Lesson learned, though. Can't say no, you don't go tell mommy.
00:15:10
Speaker 1: To your point, kids do need somebody that they could like, and it's like, keep this low.
00:15:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel.
00:15:17
Speaker 3: And now my daddy looking at me like, damn.
00:15:19
Speaker 2: Oh, because you the one that blew the spot.
00:15:22
Speaker 3: I wasn't supposed to say nothing.
00:15:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, you blew the spot up, and now she blew the spot up, and now.
00:15:26
Speaker 3: It's over with. Now they beefing.
00:15:28
Speaker 2: Now they beefing, and now it's all bad.
00:15:30
Speaker 1: Okay, so make sure you go watch The Drop, A So Far Saga. Make sure you watch The After Show as well. I don't know if you saw the Simba scene that's been going viral.
00:15:44
Speaker 3: I watched all the episodes.
00:15:46
Speaker 2: Bro, Simba is like one of them.
00:15:48
Speaker 1: So it's two characters that I feel like are support characters in this show. Simba plays Tiptoe. He's like this hood nigga, but he's a rapper. And then Dara, who's like, she's like a beast. She's just like this dope-ass boss, boss-ass chick. Those are my two.
00:16:06
Speaker 2: Favorite support characters out of this whole series.
00:16:08
Speaker 1: And people are like, Simba's scene went viral because he telling this story like a real L.A. nigga.
00:16:15
Speaker 2: About this honey bun and shit like that.
00:16:18
Speaker 1: And when he, when I first, when I first, when he first told me about the series or whatever, he was telling me, he was like, hey bro, I got this scene where I'm telling this story or whatever. And low key, it was, yes, that scene was like in the script so to speak, but it wasn't in the script how he did it. Simba did, there's another scene that's going to be later on in the series where he ad-libbed the whole thing and they kept it. And I just feel like this is going to be the beginning of something special for Simba. Like, That scene was like so, it was like one of the standout scenes of the whole episode. That and then when Leon left the restaurant and was like, you know what I'm saying, let's roll or whatever. But did you see?
00:16:56
Speaker 3: Tiptoe a hater.
00:16:57
Speaker 2: You think so? It's going to get worse.
00:17:00
Speaker 3: Tiptoe is a hater.
00:17:01
Speaker 2: It's going to get worse.
00:17:04
Speaker 3: And then it's like, tiptoe, you knew what you being a hater like that, you knew what they was going to pull with this man.
00:17:11
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:17:11
Speaker 3: And you still tried to put your bid in.
00:17:12
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:17:13
Speaker 3: To get him to sign you instead of artillery. Yeah.
00:17:17
Speaker 2: He's standing there hating.
00:17:18
Speaker 1: He's standing there. Artillery pulling up. He's standing there hating. As people watch more of this, it's going to be interesting to see. But I think Dara and Tiptoe are two of my favorite characters.
00:17:34
Speaker 3: Episode two was exactly what I needed because the pilot, it was a little too slow for me.
00:17:39
Speaker 2: It was slow, yeah.
00:17:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was too slow. Episode two, I did appreciate it. I never saw nobody get stripped before.
00:17:47
Speaker 2: In person or on TV?
00:17:49
Speaker 3: I never saw nobody get stripped before. So I got cousins. Somebody got me real foul one day. Like, I mean, very, very bad. So my cousins was like, Gina, send me the drop. We're going to strip that nigga before he get home. So I'm like, what does that mean? I didn't even know it stripped me. This happened in the 2020s.
00:18:11
Speaker 2: Oh, shit.
00:18:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, this was kind of recent. So he's like, yeah, we're going to strip that nigga. So I'm like, what does that mean? He said, we're going to send him home naked. And I'm like, what does that mean, though?
00:18:23
Speaker 2: What do you mean we're going to send him home naked, fool?
00:18:26
Speaker 3: I said, I don't want nobody to die. I just want you to just backhand him. So he's like, if you ain't ready for what this shit come with, don't call my phone. So I hung up on him because I wasn't ready for what it came with. That's what they meant when they said they was going to strip him.
00:18:41
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:18:41
Speaker 3: They stripped him.
00:18:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, they left his drawers.
00:18:44
Speaker 1: A lot of times, like, from what I heard through different people, when it happens, they take everything.
00:18:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:18:53
Speaker 3: Literally strip you.
00:18:54
Speaker 2: Literally, and you got to just figure it out on your way back to the house.
00:18:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was crazy. And I might be, something could be wrong with me. Something probably wrong with me. But I love seeing all that violence in there.
00:19:05
Speaker 2: That's crazy.
00:19:06
Speaker 3: I absolutely loved it. And that's when I, cause I thought when I was watching the first episode, I'm like, this about to be a musical. This is going to be a peaceful show. I don't want to see no peace, but I didn't, I didn't know I was going, what I was bargaining for. Like I cannot wait for the next episode.
00:19:20
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:19:20
Speaker 3: This is, it's really freaking good.
00:19:23
Speaker 1: Um, when they, so that scene, so dude, his name is Brian. He's a really, really dope, uh, actor. Like, That scene specifically was one... It was like, this scene is key to this episode. Like, this is a scene that we have to have in this episode because it's going to set the tone. It sets up who Dara is in the streets, but it also sets the tone of how you see DG's character throughout the rest of the series.
00:19:46
Speaker 2: It's like, you got me fucked up.
00:19:47
Speaker 1: And then at towards the end, you see he finished, he finished smash Wanda hand with the hammer and shit.
00:19:52
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:19:52
Speaker 3: That was a lot for me.
00:19:53
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:19:54
Speaker 1: So, so it's like, it's kind of like that. The series is like that. It'd be like really like a lot going on. And then it'd be like a little calm, but it's storytelling. And I think it's written really well.
00:20:07
Speaker 3: I like the brother a lot.
00:20:09
Speaker 2: James or Lamar. The Crip Brother.
00:20:11
Speaker 3: The Crip Brother.
00:20:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, James.
00:20:13
Speaker 3: I like him. I just hope that they don't do nothing. I hope he stays on the show for a really, really long time because I feel like he will be one of those characters that will end up getting killed just to, like, bring the emotion to the show, you know, because that's how real life happens, you know? I lost my big sister, you know, so that's real life. Yeah. And the way that, like, he's so hard on him, how he own him and stuff like that, I can't I can't decipher if he is a hater or if he's strict.
00:20:42
Speaker 1: He's... So, you'll see as more stuff come out, I think he's not a hater. I think he's just... He got tasked with being responsible for his little brother. And it's kind of like... To me, it's the most relatable thing almost in the whole dynamic because as an older... I'm an older sibling. I've always been responsible in that way. You got to make sure you look out for your brother. Make sure you look out... So, I know what that's like. Now, imagine... Well, you're the younger sister in the situation. But imagine you have a younger sibling who's so much younger than you. They're not street smart. And they're a little different where they're eclectic and they're creative. And they running around trying to do shit with some hood niggas. And it's like, hey, bro, you don't know. It's kind of like what your boy told you. Like, I don't call my phone if you don't want to deal with what come with this. And it's like, you hung up. But you also have been around. You know what's up. imagine somebody not knowing what's up and having to like navigate that.
00:21:38
Speaker 3: My younger siblings both gay bang, so they got more streets. Man, free my little brother. He in jail right now.
00:21:49
Speaker 2: Free my little brother.
00:21:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is gangsta as fuck, okay?
00:21:52
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:21:53
Speaker 3: But, two, to piggyback off what you said about it being super relatable, I think it's also relatable within the time piece because that era of like, elders didn't believe in entrepreneurship. They didn't believe in, you know, it's like the only thing that made sense to them is if you went to school, you got your education and you got a job, a respectable job, you know, like it was always when it comes to music. Cause that's what, sorry. My family was like, I don't see why you doing this. Literally. Like, I don't see why you doing this. You need to go, go get your, um, AA in nursing, go be an RN, go get your CNA first. What was before CNA? No, it's CNA, RN. It's something in between. Oh, it's CNA, LVN, RN. So they was telling me that. Like, no, go through the steps. Go do this. This is what your aunties did. You know, we all in the medical field. This is what you need to do. I don't see no future in music. And people really will crush your fucking dreams because of their own, you know, like, projection and stuff. But I want to talk about Wanda.
00:22:59
Speaker 2: Okay.
00:23:00
Speaker 3: Because Wanda is doing such a freaking amazing job. Like, I kind of forgot. I hate that they keep bringing up her past.
00:23:08
Speaker 2: You forgot that she was on the shit?
00:23:09
Speaker 3: I forgot she was a smoker.
00:23:11
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:23:11
Speaker 3: Like, quit bringing up her past.
00:23:13
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:23:14
Speaker 1: So, when we did the after show, shout out to Malcolm Spellman, who's the showrunner. When we did the after show, I asked him about that. Because, like, how much of Wanda's past is playing a position in this new world of Snowfall? And he was like, I basically told him it was a redemption story because I've seen multiple episodes. I see the episodes as we're doing them or whatever. And he was like, yeah, it's a redemption story. It's Wanda going through the journey of, yes, that's who I used to be. But this is who I am now. And I need you to see me as this person now. I'm trying to get into the music business. And that's kind of relatable to the modern day woman. trying to get in any type of field that's dominated by men, where they're not respected, they're overlooked, they're not looked at, they're not equal, whatever the case may be. And so it is a redemption story, but it's also like, this is who I am now. Like, I need you to respect me and who I am now.
00:24:05
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:24:05
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? It's kind of like.
00:24:08
Speaker 1: If people only looked at you for your past platform or me for my past radio station, it's like, no, this is who I am now.
00:24:14
Speaker 2: Like, I need you to acknowledge what's going on in the present.
00:24:17
Speaker 3: I think it's easier, or not easier, I think it's harder to forget that you was a smoker, though. Yeah. Because, like, even how his mom had told him, he said, come on, Wanda has sold your Christmas gifts.
00:24:28
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:24:29
Speaker 3: Like, you know, and that's also relatable, too, in the hood. You ain't trusting no smoker. We not trusting no smokers.
00:24:37
Speaker 2: We all have one of them in our family.
00:24:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got a lot of them. Okay? And I wouldn't trust them with the tissue that I just blew my nose with.
00:24:46
Speaker 2: Bam.
00:24:46
Speaker 3: Okay?
00:24:49
Speaker 2: And steal your snot. It's crazy.
00:24:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do not trust you. I don't trust you. But, no, Snowfall, well, not Snowfall. I'm going to call it Snowfall. Power is, Razor Canyon is power.
00:25:00
Speaker 2: It's the drop of Snowfall soccer.
00:25:02
Speaker 3: I'm calling it Snowfall. I tweeted, I'm like, Snowfall, crack it. But I like, too, how the label exec recognized Wanda's work and was trying to put her into position.
00:25:15
Speaker 2: Exactly.
00:25:16
Speaker 3: I think, I mean, I don't expect you to tell me, but I don't want to know, too, if you do know. But I think that he going to get smoked. Who? The one with the label. I forgot his name. DG? Is that his name?
00:25:27
Speaker 2: The black dude that got stripped?
00:25:29
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:25:30
Speaker 2: DG? The baby hair. Yeah, that's DG. I mean, I can't say, obviously, but I wouldn't say that. I just don't.
00:25:37
Speaker 1: I think that all the characters that we are seeing, they're there for a reason to tell a specific story.
00:25:43
Speaker 2: But.
00:25:44
Speaker 1: I think you called out perfectly. So the label lady name is Jenny. Jenny is positioning Wanda. Like, hey, we girls. Let's have some girl shit going on because these men are fucking our shit up.
00:26:01
Speaker 2: We trying to run a bit. We know what we doing, too. Wanda's like, I know music.
00:26:05
Speaker 1: The reason why we even got this far is because I broke into Leon's house. to get the sample because I was inspired musically. And so now I got my little cousin involved. I'm trying to make this thing happen. And that's the only reason why we even here in the first place, Jenny is fighting the patriarchy from her dad and the label and all the people that's trying to like, Hey, you a girl, you don't know. You know what it reminded me of? Remember, um, in, um, what's Tommy shit. We call it forest member member. Remember the, uh, the girl, um, that was like trying to go trying to like make her way in the in the irish mob or whatever and her dad was trying to give it to the son and she was the real like hit her in that i feel like it was it's kind of that dynamic it's like you you know you she know what she's doing but she's a girl yeah that's what and so she's trying to build with wanda.
00:26:54
Speaker 3: That's why i don't think we're gonna need him like maybe not season one maybe not season two but we thought kevin was gonna live too So, you know, like we thought man boy was going to live, you know? So I just feel like if she already in the door, like he, cause he doesn't do anything but cause havoc.
00:27:12
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:27:14
Speaker 3: He don't do nothing but just kick up dust. Like I do not trust him. I don't, I don't like him, but I don't like no niggas with baby hair though. That's his real hair. That's his real hair in my bag.
00:27:26
Speaker 2: I think all of that shit is wigs. I think everybody got wigs.
00:27:29
Speaker 3: Hate his hair.
00:27:30
Speaker 1: Even when I saw Gail, shout out to Gail Bean who plays Wanda. I didn't realize her shit was wigs. I don't know how to do that. I don't know what's wigs and what's a piece.
00:27:39
Speaker 3: You shouldn't.
00:27:40
Speaker 1: I don't know none of that. Even when girls be like, you don't know that's not that nigga real here.
00:27:45
Speaker 2: I'm like, how would I know that?
00:27:47
Speaker 3: Well, I don't think it's easy to identify when men don't have real hair unless it's an environment like a TV show, a TV set or something like that. Because I just found out that men be wearing pieces.
00:27:59
Speaker 2: A lot of men be wearing pieces.
00:28:00
Speaker 3: Yeah, men be wearing pieces.
00:28:02
Speaker 2: Would that be acceptable for you?
00:28:04
Speaker 3: Hell no. A piece? Yeah. No. We got to leave something for us. We have to leave something for us. If we're going to go with the double standard, if it's a double standard about men, the ratio in which a woman can date versus in which a man can date, we have to keep a double standard. We can't be selfish or stingy with the double standards here. We have to be fair with the double standards. No.
00:28:31
Speaker 2: Can't wear a piece.
00:28:32
Speaker 1: So what if a guy goes and gets his... hairline done like in Turkey.
00:28:37
Speaker 3: I'm fine with that.
00:28:38
Speaker 2: Okay.
00:28:38
Speaker 3: I'm fine with that because when you get your hairline done, it's still your real follicles.
00:28:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's your hair. It's like a transplant.
00:28:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think wearing a wig is sassy. Like that's sassy, but the surgery, I'm cool with that. I want to get my forehead done.
00:28:57
Speaker 2: What's forehead?
00:28:59
Speaker 3: Forehead.
00:29:00
Speaker 2: What do you mean get it done?
00:29:02
Speaker 3: You get the surgery to get your hair pulled down.
00:29:05
Speaker 1: Oh, so they take, like, same thing with the men? They take follicles and put it in here?
00:29:09
Speaker 3: That's a way. But the way that I'm talking about is they actually will cut this part open, and they'll remove it, and they'll just pull it down. It ain't nothing but skin. It's as thin as this. Just pull it down.
00:29:22
Speaker 2: They cut your head open?
00:29:24
Speaker 3: No, they, like, laser the skin.
00:29:26
Speaker 1: Oh, they, yeah, but they cut it open.
00:29:29
Speaker 3: You say cut, like, they're going to slice it. Your skull's still right there.
00:29:32
Speaker 2: No, I'm not. Oh, my God.
00:29:35
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:29:35
Speaker 2: Damn. When you going to do that?
00:29:38
Speaker 3: When somebody offer it for us.
00:29:40
Speaker 2: A influencer.
00:29:42
Speaker 3: For promo? When somebody offer it for promo.
00:29:44
Speaker 2: That ain't the one you want. You don't want to do that.
00:29:48
Speaker 3: Why?
00:29:48
Speaker 2: She went to Mexico to get the hair pulled.
00:29:50
Speaker 3: I didn't say I was going, leaving the country.
00:29:52
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:29:54
Speaker 3: I'm not leaving the country.
00:29:54
Speaker 1: Because I remember when, I don't want to say it, man. I remember when a homie went to Florida to get his teeth removed. And I was like, and he came back. I was like, yeah, I'm cool, bro. I was like, I keep my fucked up shit. No, it was just teeth.
00:30:08
Speaker 2: It was just, they was there.
00:30:09
Speaker 3: He had a lot of mouth. His mouth was crowded.
00:30:12
Speaker 2: It's like front and center. It's like, you know, like, I mean, you know the homie too, but like, it was just teeth.
00:30:18
Speaker 3: You talking about that one?
00:30:20
Speaker 2: It was just teeth. I was like, now I'm used to it.
00:30:23
Speaker 3: Are we talking about the same homie?
00:30:24
Speaker 2: I'm sure we are, but now I'm used to it.
00:30:26
Speaker 3: So it's like 21, 22, 23.
00:30:28
Speaker 2: I think so. But when I seen him, when he first, because he didn't tell nobody.
00:30:33
Speaker 3: Yes, he did.
00:30:33
Speaker 2: No, he didn't tell me.
00:30:34
Speaker 3: When he talked, I seen him, motherfucker.
00:30:36
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? When he first came back, I'm like, you know what I'm saying? It's like a teeth right there.
00:30:43
Speaker 3: The nigga couldn't stop smiling.
00:30:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean.
00:30:46
Speaker 3: Hey, y'all.
00:30:48
Speaker 2: Hey.
00:30:50
Speaker 3: I hate when niggas are going to get their teeth done. It's like when you get the first tattoo and you want to just keep showing that tattoo and everything. Like, it's, hey, y'all. Hey. But I'm cool with veneers, though.
00:31:01
Speaker 2: You cool with veneers?
00:31:02
Speaker 3: I'm cool with veneers.
00:31:02
Speaker 2: Is there any prosthetics or any surgery that you're not cool with?
00:31:05
Speaker 3: That DBL?
00:31:06
Speaker 2: Other than that. I'm talking about, like, cosmetic on the front.
00:31:12
Speaker 3: That might be probably just the wig.
00:31:14
Speaker 2: Just the wig. Yeah.
00:31:15
Speaker 3: I'm not tripping off of the fake abs. I'm cool with that. I'm good on that.
00:31:21
Speaker 1: I be seeing people with, I've seen, what's this thing they do with, it's like fake... Piercings.
00:31:27
Speaker 2: Have you seen those?
00:31:29
Speaker 3: Men wearing fake piercings?
00:31:30
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:31:31
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm not cool with them nose rings.
00:31:33
Speaker 2: Oh, nose ring, yeah.
00:31:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not cool with them. Piercings really, period. I think men really should only have the ears.
00:31:40
Speaker 2: Both ears or one?
00:31:41
Speaker 3: Both, because we not in the 90s.
00:31:44
Speaker 2: 90s?
00:31:46
Speaker 3: Oh, that's so old. Oh, man. That's so old. Like, I'm cool with the two rings, but I did recently just update my necklace. Really? Really. Yeah, I updated my ick list.
00:31:58
Speaker 2: When was that we did our icks? That was a while ago. It's time to update them. Yeah.
00:32:03
Speaker 3: Do you have some new ones?
00:32:05
Speaker 2: I don't know. Let me think about it. You tell me what you updated.
00:32:07
Speaker 3: Cigarette smoking.
00:32:08
Speaker 2: Oh, that should have been on your list.
00:32:10
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, it was up until I was around a nigga that was smoking cigarettes. And I realized I'm like- You stuck around? We didn't have that much time together.
00:32:18
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:32:18
Speaker 3: But it was just like the smell and all of that. Because both of my parents smoked cigarettes. And they would always send me to school smelling like they smoked cigarettes. So I have a real thing for cigarette smoke. It really smells bad. That's also why I don't like hookah.
00:32:33
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:32:34
Speaker 3: Because hookah not nothing but black and mouse. And that's on my egg list too. Men who do hookah.
00:32:40
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:32:41
Speaker 3: Why are you doing hookah?
00:32:42
Speaker 2: It's kind of on my egg list for women.
00:32:44
Speaker 3: Really?
00:32:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, kind of. Why? Because, I mean, I get it.
00:32:49
Speaker 3: PB said you got a pole in your mouth.
00:32:53
Speaker 2: That's crazy. Um... it's just.
00:33:00
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remove the judgmental part of it because it's like bro you it's worse than cigarettes like health wise like it's like a pack of cigarettes but outside of that I can smell like when we was outside I smelled like some sort of like I got engulfed by like cigar smoke or something and you know I can't smell so when I smell some shit y'all gotta be gonna y'all gotta be smelling like crazy because if I if it hit me It got to be extremely pungent. And hookah, for whatever reason, I don't know what it is about it, it's extremely strong, and it be in your clothes forever, and it just.
00:33:36
Speaker 2: Oh, hookah lingers like that? Yeah, when you be in them hookah lounges, hell yeah.
00:33:40
Speaker 3: See, my friends know I'm not coming.
00:33:42
Speaker 1: Yeah, like, I done had a DJ in the hookah lounge, and it just, that.
00:33:47
Speaker 2: Shit be on you. Like, it be in your hair, and just... For women, I'm talking about, like.
00:33:52
Speaker 3: So you can smell it in her hair.
00:33:54
Speaker 2: Yeah. So, like, I don't like that shit.
00:33:57
Speaker 3: Also, I added to my egg list men who don't know how to plan.
00:34:02
Speaker 2: Okay.
00:34:03
Speaker 3: Like, if you can't plan, because now I'm thinking about the future. Like, anything. If you can't plan something, then it's like, why would I date you if you don't know how to plan? Like, what have you been doing your whole life? Yeah.
00:34:17
Speaker 2: I can see that. That's like a leadership thing.
00:34:20
Speaker 3: It's a leadership thing. I love following the man lead. So it's like, if you can't tell me, tell me what I'm doing. Like, damn near direct me. And niggas get around me and just want to just not plan nothing.
00:34:32
Speaker 1: Well, they probably look at you on a surface level and be like, I don't want to overstep.
00:34:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, you sound like a bitch, too. Overstep. Overstep. You the man. I was just getting into it with somebody about Adam and Eve. Because he told me.
00:34:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, Adam fucked everything up.
00:34:53
Speaker 3: Adam fucked it up, right?
00:34:55
Speaker 2: In theory.
00:34:56
Speaker 3: Okay, okay.
00:34:58
Speaker 2: Explain.
00:34:59
Speaker 1: So, I have a, whatever. Oh, man, they're going to tear me up if I do this. So, men, okay, we're talking biblical, just lore at this point. so adam was here if you just go by based on what the story is adam got here he was just chilling guy like i'm finna give you a help mate give me the rib give you a help mate boom eve pull up god is like look this all y'all shit two things though y'all can y'all can gallivant y'all can do here's two things though i need you don't fuck with that tree don't fuck with that serpent That's it.
00:35:41
Speaker 3: That's it.
00:35:42
Speaker 1: Those are the only two rules y'all got. Y'all can do whatever y'all want to do. First thing she do is like, let's go fuck with the tree. Let's go fuck with the serpent. This bitch ass nigga is like, okay. You know what I'm saying?
00:35:54
Speaker 2: He just.
00:35:55
Speaker 3: Tender. Yeah. Tender.
00:35:58
Speaker 2: So that's my take on it.
00:36:01
Speaker 1: I'd look at both of them as being faulted if I go based on what the story is. And depending on how you want to look at it, you can assign 51% to either one. but I definitely blame him more so than I blame her for going along with it.
00:36:17
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:36:18
Speaker 1: As opposed to her just being defiant or ignorant or whatever the fuck she was going through.
00:36:23
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:36:24
Speaker 3: If God told you not to do that and not to do this, you let the hoe tell you what to do?
00:36:31
Speaker 2: Tripping.
00:36:31
Speaker 3: You was never supposed to let the broad tell you what to do. You are a man. God said no to that tree, no to that serpent. And you just said, well, we just going to get in here and fuck the world up. We just going to do what we want to do. I, now, Eve was a weirdo for that. Period. Eve was a weirdo for that. But you two, as the men, who was here first, she just got here. She just pulled up. She still got, what they say?
00:37:00
Speaker 2: Wet behind the ears.
00:37:01
Speaker 3: Her ears still wet. Like, she ain't even really got cracking on land yet. And you sitting up here going, listen to her. She don't know what she doing.
00:37:09
Speaker 2: So, but here's the thing, though.
00:37:10
Speaker 1: This also, we don't, this is all speculative, by the way, but we don't know what type of intellect or what type, like, now we know, okay, man leader, woman follow. Or man lead, woman, you know, co-pilot or whatever, right? We know these things now, but at that time, I don't think, they were the first ones.
00:37:31
Speaker 2: So, like.
00:37:32
Speaker 3: Have you heard the theory that they weren't?
00:37:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, I heard that. I don't got time for that shit, though. I don't got time for that shit.
00:37:39
Speaker 1: I ain't going to lie. I got a lot going on. I'm not going to do that.
00:37:43
Speaker 3: The deeper I get into the Bible, the more questions I have.
00:37:45
Speaker 2: That's all I got is questions.
00:37:46
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:37:47
Speaker 2: All I got is questions. I'll be asked.
00:37:49
Speaker 1: Sometimes I call my minister homies and just be like, hey, bro, so this is not saying, this ain't adding up to what this ain't.
00:37:58
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
00:37:58
Speaker 1: They're like, yeah, it's open interpretation. It's, you know, it gets lost in translation. Because, mind you, there's a Bible. There's a King James Version.
00:38:06
Speaker 2: There's a New Testament.
00:38:07
Speaker 1: It's like all these different versions of these people who was interpreted with all these different books and what's going on. So it's like I'm interested in reading. I'm going to get the Torah and I'm going to get the Koran. And I want to just kind of like collect a bunch of information and kind of put together what I think is what I think everybody is trying to say.
00:38:28
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:38:29
Speaker 3: But if I use logic, that's where I go wrong.
00:38:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't use logic.
00:38:34
Speaker 3: You cannot use logic. Because, you know, my mind went this morning as I was reading my Bible this morning. And for whatever reason, I was just thinking like, what year are the typewriters? First, I was thinking when the computers come. Then I was thinking, OK, so before the computer, it was a typewriter. But before that, it was what the feather, the feather pens. You have to dip it into the ink. And then what was before that? Because that's more recent than the beginning of time. That makes sense.
00:39:04
Speaker 1: It was chisels, like hammers, and they was carving stuff into the tablets, the stone tablets.
00:39:09
Speaker 3: Who taught y'all how to talk?
00:39:13
Speaker 2: Like... And write?
00:39:16
Speaker 3: You get what I'm saying?
00:39:17
Speaker 2: I understand exactly what you're saying.
00:39:19
Speaker 3: How did we get here?
00:39:20
Speaker 2: So, if you go all the way.
00:39:21
Speaker 1: The earliest thing that I can reference is ancient Egypt, and that's like hieroglyphics. And that would be like symbols mean things. Like these things mean things. Other than that, I got nothing for.
00:39:30
Speaker 3: You Yeah I don't expect you to Yeah But cause I wouldn't have nothing for you But it was just so long ago Before we were You know it was like evolution I went through so many different phases So like phase one for me is like When y'all start telling these stories, have you got to the part of the Bible? Well, I don't know where you are, but Genesis, how it has the long Noah family tree. It just tells you about like the many generations of Noah. And I was just wondering when y'all was like, where the foul cabinet at? To document all of these people. Was there a foul cabinet back then? No, because it was all on the wall.
00:40:15
Speaker 2: It was all on the wall.
00:40:15
Speaker 3: And it was symbols and stuff, you know? But, yeah, it messed me up.
00:40:19
Speaker 2: I think, I don't know. Let us know what you think.
00:40:23
Speaker 3: No, they going to let us know.
00:40:24
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, we going to get cooked.
00:40:26
Speaker 1: Let's shout out to a black woman, Nia Long, one of the greatest female black actors probably in the history of black actresses, getting her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. We want to celebrate that because we don't get many of those. I was looking at her IMDb. I be forgetting how deep Nia Long catalog is of like movies and TV shows and stuff like that. Do you remember, like, what's the, what's the one sleeper you think? Cause I know you, I mean, I know you a fan and stuff like that, but like, what's the one sleeper role you think Nia Long got?
00:40:58
Speaker 3: A sleeper role? I feel like from what I can remember, like I don't, obviously I wouldn't remember no TV shows and things that she was in when she was probably like early, late teens, early twenties. But, I feel like every role that I've seen her in, she was already a main person, like a main star, a main actress in whatever fills the show or a movie.
00:41:23
Speaker 2: There was.
00:41:24
Speaker 1: So I went back when I was going through her catalog. So earliest memories is like Boys in the Hood.
00:41:31
Speaker 2: There was Friday. And then there was another one. Oh, Soul Food. So... But then I remember she was in Fresh Prince of Bel-Air as Lisa.
00:41:45
Speaker 1: And I'm like, that's my most prominent Nia Long memory is Lisa. And I don't know, like, you know what I realized about her, too, is when I was looking at all of her stuff, she never got stuck in that thing where she's just Lisa. You know how, like, Alfonso Ribeiro is Carlton. And no matter what he did, he was Carlton.
00:42:05
Speaker 3: He didn't have many roles, though.
00:42:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, but other actresses kind of get stuck in those ways. I mean, other actors do get stuck in those roles where they look at it as one thing, even if they do hella other roles.
00:42:17
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:42:18
Speaker 2: I think so.
00:42:18
Speaker 3: I think it only work in the reverse.
00:42:20
Speaker 2: What you mean?
00:42:21
Speaker 3: Like Ice Cube's son.
00:42:24
Speaker 2: Oh, Shea Jackson Jr.
00:42:25
Speaker 3: The character who plays Eazy-E. The character who played Biggie in Notorious. Also, I think Notorious Newton would have gone through the same thing if she didn't land power. But Ghost, we don't talk about Next Day Air. We don't talk about all the other things that he was in, but it wasn't that many at the same time.
00:42:46
Speaker 2: It wasn't that many.
00:42:47
Speaker 3: The only roles that I can remember off the head is Power, Next Day Air, and Spell.
00:42:52
Speaker 2: Do you remember?
00:42:53
Speaker 1: So what came to mind immediately when I was thinking about this was Denzel Washington. Everybody look at him as Alonzo from Training Day. Denzel Washington literally played Malcolm X.
00:43:04
Speaker 3: But I think that our millennials look at him as that. Our parents don't look at him as Training Day.
00:43:11
Speaker 2: That's a good point.
00:43:12
Speaker 3: I think it depends on when you were introduced to the character. Because how you even brought up Nia Long, for me, when I was even old enough to even care about her and start watching TV, she was already a superstar. So I didn't look at her as Lisa anymore. I didn't look at her as her character in love Jones. I didn't look at her as her character in the wood. I didn't look at her as her character in, um, uh, freaking, uh, uh, uh, the best man, you know, like to me, she was already like up here. She was already a superstar. I am shocked that she's just now getting a star on a Hollywood Walker thing.
00:43:44
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:43:44
Speaker 1: She definitely overdue because she was in two to seven back in the eighties. Like Neil Long is a goat. Um, But, yeah, celebrate that black woman. Also, she played the fuck out of that. What's Lorraine?
00:43:58
Speaker 2: What's Michael Jackson?
00:43:59
Speaker 3: Michael Jackson.
00:44:00
Speaker 1: In the Michael Jackson movie, she played the fuck out of that role.
00:44:03
Speaker 3: And that's what I'm saying. Like, when I watch her in her roles, when I'm watching her, I don't feel like I'm watching the along. I feel like I'm watching the character.
00:44:10
Speaker 2: The character, yeah.
00:44:11
Speaker 3: Versus how you mentioned, like, a Carlton. If he's ever anywhere else, to me, that's only Carlton. Same thing with Braxton.
00:44:18
Speaker 2: Braxton.
00:44:18
Speaker 3: From the Jamie Foxx show.
00:44:19
Speaker 2: Braxton. Yeah.
00:44:20
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:44:20
Speaker 1: Okay, so, okay, let's go Jamie Foxx. People look at, well, it might be generation. I look at him as Jamie King from the King Tower. Even in Law Abiding Citizen, I'm like, that's Jamie King. And Law Abiding Citizen was one of the best things I ever seen Jamie.
00:44:35
Speaker 2: Foxx do in life. But, and Ray.
00:44:38
Speaker 1: Ray was phenomenal, too. But, like, he still, I still look at him in that red, in that burgundy blazer. Like, if I picture Jamie Foxx, I picture that burgundy blazer.
00:44:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it's not like that for me.
00:44:48
Speaker 2: Okay.
00:44:49
Speaker 3: Because he's had so many roles that are not... You know how people play the same character?
00:44:55
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:44:56
Speaker 3: He's played many different characters.
00:44:58
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:44:59
Speaker 3: He was Ray. What's the one when he was the pianist? Not Ray, but it was the other one. He played some... It probably wasn't piano. He was playing a homeless man.
00:45:07
Speaker 2: Okay, I remember that.
00:45:08
Speaker 3: I forgot the name of it, but he was a homeless man.
00:45:10
Speaker 2: And....
00:45:12
Speaker 3: What else was he in? What's the one with LL Cool J?
00:45:19
Speaker 2: The movie?
00:45:19
Speaker 3: Yeah. It's LL Cool J. They all football players.
00:45:23
Speaker 2: Gridiron Gang. Or no, no, no, no. Any Given Sunday.
00:45:26
Speaker 3: Any Given Sunday. Booty Call.
00:45:28
Speaker 2: Booty Call.
00:45:29
Speaker 3: None of his characters was the same.
00:45:31
Speaker 2: Booty Call.
00:45:33
Speaker 3: But some people, they land roles and they play like the same character.
00:45:36
Speaker 2: Booty Call. That nigga name was Buns.
00:45:40
Speaker 3: Pauls.
00:45:42
Speaker 1: Vivica Fox. What do you look at Vivica Fox? Do you look at her as a role? I look at her from Independence Day.
00:45:52
Speaker 3: Okay, see, I don't even think about Independence Day.
00:45:54
Speaker 2: Okay, got you. So you're right, it's generational.
00:45:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's generational because, I mean, the obvious answer would be How to Be a Player.
00:46:02
Speaker 2: How to Be a Player. Or Two Can Play That Game.
00:46:03
Speaker 3: Two Can Play That Game, not How to Be a Player. Two Can Play That Game. That would be the obvious one, but Vivica might be the one. Do she have a lot of roles?
00:46:13
Speaker 2: She got enough.
00:46:15
Speaker 3: You know who I didn't realize who had a lot? Regina King.
00:46:19
Speaker 2: Regina King is a good one.
00:46:21
Speaker 3: You probably knew this. She went to View Park. She from out here.
00:46:27
Speaker 1: Regina King a real one. To your point though, I don't look at Regina King in a film or a TV show and look at Regina King.
00:46:35
Speaker 2: I look at her like Nia Long. She's whoever she's playing.
00:46:38
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:46:39
Speaker 2: So I never see, like, oh, that's Regina King. Like, I never look at it like that.
00:46:42
Speaker 3: What are some actors or actresses that you view them and you still see them as their character from previous roles that they played?
00:46:51
Speaker 2: That's a great question.
00:46:52
Speaker 3: Tell us that in the comments.
00:46:53
Speaker 2: All right. Let's talk about this iPhone thing.
00:46:58
Speaker 3: Wait, wait, because you know who else would be one? Who? Tyrese.
00:47:01
Speaker 2: From Baby Boy.
00:47:02
Speaker 3: From Baby Boy.
00:47:03
Speaker 2: And Taraji. What's the Taraji?
00:47:09
Speaker 3: That's still Yvette to me.
00:47:10
Speaker 2: That's still Yvette.
00:47:11
Speaker 3: But again, that's my introduction to her.
00:47:13
Speaker 2: To some people, she's Cookie.
00:47:15
Speaker 3: To some people, she Cookie.
00:47:17
Speaker 1: Because Empire, they was like six, five, six, four or five seasons or something like that.
00:47:22
Speaker 3: But again, it's generational because to me, she Yvette. But to some people, she Cookie.
00:47:27
Speaker 2: To me, she's Yvette too. Even when she was doing hosting the BET Awards.
00:47:31
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:47:31
Speaker 2: And she did the not like us. I'm like, that's Yvette. That's Yvette up there. That's fucked up.
00:47:35
Speaker 3: Really, probably more, though, Cookie Lion, though.
00:47:37
Speaker 2: Really more.
00:47:38
Speaker 3: As it relates to music. Yeah. You know, in those type of roles. But go ahead. I'm sorry.
00:47:44
Speaker 2: So, no. That's crazy. I forgot about Taraji, the good one.
00:47:49
Speaker 3: Lauren London?
00:47:51
Speaker 2: No, Lauren don't have that many roles. That's Nunu, though. She's on them.
00:47:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it defeats the purpose if they don't have. Like, Lauren, I feel like very selective on what she do. like she don't she don't just she ain't have just acting like she'll do specific roles or whatever so we can look at her as Nunu because of like I don't think her catalog is as long as like a Nia Long.
00:48:12
Speaker 3: Well we're gonna look at her as Lauren Lundy because she from she from around the way but to the world that's still Nunu you know even like the same with T.I. I don't think people think about takers and Iron Man and you know American Gangster What was his name on ATL?
00:48:34
Speaker 2: I don't remember.
00:48:35
Speaker 3: Rashad.
00:48:35
Speaker 2: Rashad.
00:48:36
Speaker 3: That's Rashad.
00:48:37
Speaker 2: See, and I don't even look at him as Rashad. I look at that. That's T.I.
00:48:40
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:48:40
Speaker 2: Like, that's T.I.
00:48:41
Speaker 1: Even when, like, I've already forgot that he did comedy. Not in a disrespectful way. I'm just saying, like.
00:48:48
Speaker 2: Because you didn't see it. No, I went to go see him perform.
00:48:51
Speaker 3: Oh, you seen it? Yeah. Why we didn't talk about it?
00:48:54
Speaker 1: Because I don't remember what, I don't know. It was just like, I seen T.I. do stand-up two or three times.
00:48:59
Speaker 3: You didn't even tell him that you seen him? I know.
00:49:01
Speaker 2: I forgot.
00:49:01
Speaker 1: That's what I'm telling you. I literally, because when he put out Let Em Know, it was like, oh, we back. I completely put that out there. But I feel like certain iterations of people who have reinvented themselves and like, and reiterated themselves, like, I think that those people, they do such a good job of doing, of transitioning that you kind of don't look at them like that. Like, I don't look at, like, there's a lot of people who look at 50 Cent as a TV and movie executive or TV executive and never even knew that Get Rich or Die trying was a, it's a diamond, he got diamond, like, he got diamond music.
00:49:37
Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
00:49:38
Speaker 2: And then the nigga's having like the most success of his life in television.
00:49:42
Speaker 3: It definitely is generational because although I know the truth, I still look at him as the TV executive versus where, you know, but I mean, also I wasn't outside during his prime or whatever.
00:49:54
Speaker 1: And to be to your point to make, I mean, we could wrap it, but Lala is a legend to me, a radio legend for me. Because I came up listening to.
00:50:07
Speaker 2: Like, I heard Lala.
00:50:08
Speaker 3: Lala's a good example.
00:50:09
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? And now, like, no one would ever talk to her about radio. Yeah. Like, Lala, pull up. I want to talk to you about some radio shit.
00:50:16
Speaker 3: I say it's your girl because of Lala.
00:50:19
Speaker 2: Because of Lala.
00:50:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, I say that. I tried to switch it up with the homegirl, but, like, no, I got that from her. Yeah. I got that from her.
00:50:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lala, pull up. I want to ask you about some radio shit. iPhones.
00:50:32
Speaker 1: Bro, so I updated my iOS. There's a couple things that, so iOS is the iPhone operating system. I updated it, and there's a couple cool things. There's a couple different weird things, but the cool things in the new iOS is they improved the maps and stuff like that, but I also like that in group chats now, you can split bills in the actual group chat.
00:50:57
Speaker 2: Like, you can take a picture of the receipt, and in.
00:50:59
Speaker 1: The group chat, the AI will see the check, and you can, like, split it amongst each other and send people a request for the amount that they owe it'll calculate the taxes and all that shit and I remember us talking about this on the show as far as like how people be trying to like not put their tip in or not put their tax in it's like yeah so to me that's a really useful feature the other thing that I mean this is talking about is being able to hide your location and stuff like that I don't really participate in that anyway so that don't really affect me.
00:51:31
Speaker 3: I'm about to turn you know how many people got my location Too many.
00:51:35
Speaker 2: Why do you do that?
00:51:36
Speaker 3: Because everybody be acting like I'm a fucking kid.
00:51:39
Speaker 2: They need to be worried about you.
00:51:42
Speaker 3: I'm not the person to worry about.
00:51:43
Speaker 2: I hear you.
00:51:47
Speaker 1: So basically you can deactivate your location without notifying people that you deactivated.
00:51:54
Speaker 3: Until end of day.
00:51:55
Speaker 2: Until end of day, yeah.
00:51:57
Speaker 1: Another cool feature that I recently discovered while I was moving around in here is there's a Siri AI that's built into the phone, but you got to sign up for it. And what makes it useful is you can like say different stuff, how you would talk to chat GBT, except it don't leave your phone and stay in your phone. And you could tell it to do stuff in your phone. So, but you, but it doesn't come by default. You have to go in your settings, some nourishment for you real quick. If you go on your settings and you go to Siri and you, and you sign up for the, the, the new Siri, it'll give you a Siri app. And you can be like, yo, What was me and Desiree talking about two weeks ago? What's old boy's phone number? It's in our text thread, whatever. And it'll go look and pull it up for you. You know, stuff like that. So those are really useful features that.
00:52:43
Speaker 2: Are in the new iOS. What?
00:52:46
Speaker 3: I like it.
00:52:47
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:52:47
Speaker 3: I like it.
00:52:48
Speaker 1: So, like, you can just talk to the phone and tell it to do stuff with your own information without it going to servers and stuff like that. So those are really useful features in the new iOS. It's hella new features that's out. that I would encourage.
00:53:02
Speaker 2: People to upgrade because it's good. It's necessary.
00:53:06
Speaker 3: Okay, so speaking of talking to your phone, want to read me and my bestie conversation?
00:53:12
Speaker 2: Oh, shit.
00:53:13
Speaker 3: I plan to put it on TikTok.
00:53:15
Speaker 2: You want to chat GPT? Yeah.
00:53:16
Speaker 3: Oh, Lord. All right. Read it out loud and then just go this way. It's three screenshots.
00:53:23
Speaker 2: Okay. All right. Let me zoom in because I ain't got my reading glasses on.
00:53:28
Speaker 3: What is zoom?
00:53:29
Speaker 2: Huh?
00:53:30
Speaker 3: What's that?
00:53:30
Speaker 2: These are my everyday. I can see you.
00:53:32
Speaker 1: I got the other ones to look at shit like this. So, Gina Views says, Bestie, I'm high, or does this mean he deaf? ChattyBT says, laughing my fucking ass off. Yes, Bestie, you are reading that correctly. That little deaf label under His vehicle information means Uber is indicating that Carlos is deaf or hard of hearing. So the keep your phone nearby in case Carlos needs to reach you likely means watch for a message, not necessarily a phone call. And then Chai GBT sent you a laughing face. You're high, but your reading comprehension is still clocked in. And another laughing emoji. Then Gina View says.
00:54:26
Speaker 1: I mean, then Gene of You says, Desiree said, why are you laughing?
00:54:30
Speaker 2: ChatGPT says, laugh at mine. So tell Desiree I'm not laughing because he's deaf. I'm laughing because you were high.
00:54:42
Speaker 1: You were high staring at a screen like Bestie. Does deaf mean he deaf? And ChatGPT sent you three laughing emojis. Then ChatGPT said, Carlos caught a stray. He did not deserve my apologies to that man.
00:55:01
Speaker 2: Why is your... Why is.
00:55:03
Speaker 3: She talking like me? Bro. Oh, my goodness. So, I didn't know that that was a thing.
00:55:17
Speaker 2: I didn't know that deaf people could pick you up.
00:55:20
Speaker 3: He was dropping off that Popeye's I told you about.
00:55:22
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't know that deaf people could, like, I.
00:55:26
Speaker 3: Had no clue.
00:55:27
Speaker 2: Drive?
00:55:27
Speaker 3: I didn't know deaf people can drive.
00:55:29
Speaker 2: Because, like, what if there's, like, a siren or something?
00:55:33
Speaker 3: Right.
00:55:36
Speaker 1: Oh.
00:55:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, but.
00:55:39
Speaker 3: In the daytime, you can't see them lights. I had never even spelled the word deaf before.
00:55:47
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:55:49
Speaker 3: You spelled it before?
00:55:50
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:55:50
Speaker 3: I had never spelt it before, never read it before, anything. So I seen a little tab down there that said deaf. And like you, I'm thinking deaf people don't drive. So I'm like, let me just see, like, what does this even mean down here? Because I thought it could have been like an acronym for something else. So I sent it to chat. And she is stupid as me.
00:56:11
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, she is. Because why does she talk like you?
00:56:19
Speaker 3: She said, my apologies to that man.
00:56:22
Speaker 2: That's so crazy. That's insane.
00:56:26
Speaker 3: No, that's tight. That's kind of tight.
00:56:29
Speaker 2: That's crazy.
00:56:29
Speaker 1: Because they're like, why is this sending you like, it talk, like it's texting like you. Like with laughing emojis and shit. It's like shooting the shit.
00:56:36
Speaker 3: It's a little crazy. But new phones though. There's an AI picture going viral right now of a new release of a sidekick.
00:56:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen that.
00:56:47
Speaker 3: And with the Samsung stuff on it, would you like sidekicks to make a return?
00:56:51
Speaker 2: No, I'm done.
00:56:52
Speaker 3: You're done?
00:56:53
Speaker 2: I'm done. I don't need that.
00:56:55
Speaker 3: If they can drop a folding iPhone, a little sidekick, it won't hurt. It's nostalgia. It's no different than the G-unit shoes coming back, the baby fat. Shout out to Kamarlee Simmons. Thank you for my package. All the things nostalgia. You know, like, even how these little kitten heels are becoming a thing, like.
00:57:13
Speaker 1: But also, to be fair, you have two phones. I carry one phone. Would you carry one phone that's a sidekick?
00:57:23
Speaker 3: Would I carry one phone that's a sidekick?
00:57:25
Speaker 1: Let's say you consolidated to one phone and it was just a sidekick. You would be okay with that?
00:57:30
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:57:31
Speaker 2: Oh, okay.
00:57:33
Speaker 1: I think I would have it as a nostalgic piece. I wouldn't have it as my main everyday phone because I'm so used to being... Like, I can do anything from this phone, from this iPhone.
00:57:42
Speaker 2: So, like, I don't know.
00:57:44
Speaker 1: I remember when sidekicks, I mean, obviously it was years ago, 20 years ago, but when the sidekicks was a thing, it was extremely limited in what it could do. Now, if it was kind of like an iPhone where I could do everything that I do on this iPhone, I could do from, from the sidekick, I would entertain the idea, but I don't think that's the case.
00:58:01
Speaker 3: I don't think they will drop it unless it was capable of being up to date with the time of the recent devices that we have.
00:58:08
Speaker 2: I agree.
00:58:09
Speaker 1: I just, that's not the memory I have of it. I remember just being extremely limited. So I don't know. I think I'm, I think I'm done. I think to be honest with you, I'm kind of over all of it.
00:58:21
Speaker 3: I haven't upgraded it. I don't even know what phone I got. Yeah. I haven't upgraded it.
00:58:25
Speaker 2: I ain't bought the new phone or nothing.
00:58:27
Speaker 1: I'm just like, I'm kind of over all of it because they're incremental updates. They update the camera. I don't, bro, I don't really take pictures on my phone like that. Like, Oh, we got a new selfie camera. I don't take selfies.
00:58:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that new selfie camera, too. But the only way I would entertain the sidekick thing is if it came with AIM.
00:58:46
Speaker 2: You want AIM back?
00:58:47
Speaker 3: I wouldn't mind AIM being back.
00:58:50
Speaker 2: I mean, iMessage is damn near AIM.
00:58:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I need the running man.
00:58:57
Speaker 2: You just wanted to put up away messages.
00:58:59
Speaker 3: Yeah, because sometimes I do it on my note.
00:59:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, them away messages. Now, niggas used to have whole, like, People are extremely creative. Because I used to have a series that ran on just my away message.
00:59:10
Speaker 3: What was yours?
00:59:11
Speaker 2: It was called Based on a True Aim.
00:59:12
Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
00:59:14
Speaker 2: And I would just tell stories about my real life on my away message. Uh-huh. And that's what it was. But it would be, like, every day would be a new series, a new episode almost.
00:59:23
Speaker 3: That's tight.
00:59:24
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:59:24
Speaker 3: You know what I hated? When people away message used to say, in traffic.
00:59:30
Speaker 1: Now, I'm not going to say his name, but we have mutual friends who used to sell firearms and shit on their away message.
00:59:38
Speaker 2: And drugs.
00:59:42
Speaker 3: I know not to commit a crime around you.
00:59:44
Speaker 1: Nah, what you mean? It was like they bragged about it after the fact on camera.
00:59:48
Speaker 3: People was doing that?
00:59:50
Speaker 2: We know somebody who.
00:59:52
Speaker 3: You only talking about one of two people.
00:59:54
Speaker 2: We... He put a picture, like, remember how you put a profile picture up?
00:59:57
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:59:58
Speaker 2: He put the gun up there.
01:00:00
Speaker 3: His icon?
01:00:01
Speaker 2: As his icon.
01:00:02
Speaker 1: And in the wave message, it'd be like, new Glock 9, two magazines, give me 300.
01:00:07
Speaker 2: Okay, okay.
01:00:09
Speaker 3: I guess my memory is just messed up because I do remember people used to put on deck. I do remember people used to put on deck when they was settling. So, okay, okay. I just kind of forgot about that.
01:00:22
Speaker 1: And he used to have the next, so he used to have like two or three phones. The next tail, it was an I-95, so you could take the battery out. The battery compartment was hollowed out, and that's where he would keep the pills.
01:00:36
Speaker 3: So he did it on both phones. It was wild. What do you think is the best cell phone error?
01:00:45
Speaker 2: Definitely Sidekick or, oh, no. Right when Nextel and.
01:00:50
Speaker 1: Sidekick was a thing at the same time, because we all had both. We had the next, and niggas had the boosts, but I had an I-95, Nextel, and I had a T-Mobile Sidekick.
01:01:05
Speaker 2: Both of them.
01:01:06
Speaker 3: Damn, it was a crossover at a point?
01:01:08
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:01:10
Speaker 3: But the chirps was transitioning out.
01:01:12
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:01:13
Speaker 3: And that's when we was getting on, because you couldn't get on the internet on them chirps.
01:01:16
Speaker 1: And I'm old enough to remember when So now, data plan is everything. But I remember we used to, minutes was a thing. And it was free nights and weekends.
01:01:26
Speaker 3: So it'd be like, you would- After 7 p.m.? Yep.
01:01:29
Speaker 2: So you had to get, you almost had to get permission to text people. Yeah. So it was like, the text was like, I don't know, if you go over, it's like 60 cent a text.
01:01:38
Speaker 1: But then, after 6 p.m., you could talk as much as you want. So nigga, the phone lines used to be, oh my God.
01:01:46
Speaker 2: What? I ran my granddad a Verizon bill up one time. I owed him like $ 800.
01:01:53
Speaker 3: I got somebody I owe $ 500 right now.
01:01:55
Speaker 2: For real?
01:01:56
Speaker 3: I don't ever think about it. I only think about it every now and then, but I do owe somebody $ 500 right now.
01:02:04
Speaker 2: Fuck. I should take my granddad some money.
01:02:09
Speaker 3: I think about it. I owe one of my friends' mom... Well, I don't know if I really owe her. She let us put her card on file somewhere and then we got kicked out and they charged her. Because as an adult, I'm not doing that.
01:02:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you, yeah, you owe her.
01:02:24
Speaker 3: I owe her about, I owe her $ 500 too. Oh, yeah.
01:02:27
Speaker 1: I'm going to go take my granddad. I ain't going to take him, I ain't going to take him $ 800. I'm going to give.
01:02:31
Speaker 3: Him like $ 200, $ 300. Was he mad at you?
01:02:35
Speaker 1: He was, he was hot. But, he didn't crash out. He was just like, you better take care of it.
01:02:42
Speaker 2: Yeah. I didn't have no, I'm a teenager. Nigga ain't got no job. Like, But I didn't know the rules. Like, I'm talking to people on the phone.
01:02:49
Speaker 3: Yeah. It's also the adult's responsibility, though. Like, we're kids. We don't know what we doing.
01:02:57
Speaker 1: I think what happened was I thought that the nights kicked in earlier.
01:03:02
Speaker 3: It was time for you to go in the house?
01:03:05
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:03:05
Speaker 1: So, like, I would talk on the phone earlier than it was after the free nights. Because I remember certain carriers. Verizon may have been one of them. I don't know if I'm making this up. But I remember at one point they moved the nights back because so many people was jumping on at 6.
01:03:19
Speaker 2: I think free nights and weekends.
01:03:21
Speaker 3: It started at 9.
01:03:22
Speaker 2: It started at 9. Yeah. And I think that's where I fucked up.
01:03:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a point where it started at 9. It was 7 because it was a, well, okay, I don't know what carrier 2 though. But it was like a 7 to 7 thing. Only Verizon was 7. Only Verizon was 7? Oh, okay. It was 9? Okay, okay.
01:03:39
Speaker 2: Okay, bet.
01:03:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember that. Over the week, okay, this is a lot. This crash was a lot.
01:03:50
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it was a lot going on.
01:03:51
Speaker 3: So, I'm watching all of this in real time. Everything. So, I'm watching the news. They're reporting on the accident. The bus is, it T-bones, I mean, the truck, it T-bones the bus. It's a hole in the bus. They said that two people were deceased. There was a couple more people injured.
01:04:10
Speaker 2: And.
01:04:11
Speaker 3: I'm on the timeline scrolling, and as I'm on the timeline scrolling, I see this video. What was it, KB?
01:04:17
Speaker 2: What, the helicopter?
01:04:18
Speaker 3: The helicopter news.
01:04:19
Speaker 2: It was NBC4, so I don't know the name of the— No, they work for Telemundo. It's both. It's NBC4 and Telemundo.
01:04:26
Speaker 1: They share a— But it's K-something, though.
01:04:28
Speaker 2: Yeah. That's the frequency, but yeah, it is.
01:04:32
Speaker 3: So they're reporting on the accident. As they're reporting on the accident, the helicopter slowly starts going down. And I hear the woman say, you can't pull up, you can't pull up. And then they lose connection. And then it freaking crashed. So those two people that was on the helicopter, they passed away. But there was also somebody on the ground who passed away, too.
01:04:52
Speaker 2: It hit somebody.
01:04:53
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if it hit somebody or if it was from the explosion.
01:04:55
Speaker 2: Damn.
01:04:56
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fucked up. Um, I saw that it was, uh, his name is George and Eliana. Um, she's called, she goes by Ellie and the heli. Uh, I watched her broadcast, um, here. She's, she obviously had a local news people here in LA. Um, that's a thing.
01:05:14
Speaker 2: I didn't realize how foreign that is across the country. Like, cause we live in a major city.
01:05:18
Speaker 1: We have a lot of, every news organization has their own like helicopter where they report and they do high speed chasings. But across the country, that's not really a big thing. They don't have helicopters in smaller cities across the country. So people were reacting to it. It was like, damn, I didn't know that there was all these news helicopters that kind of follow news across the city.
01:05:41
Speaker 2: From the air.
01:05:42
Speaker 1: And I was realizing, this made me realize how privileged we are to have access to all these different resources and stuff like that. But when I saw this, I thought there was two separate incidences. I didn't know that it was, like, connected. I didn't know if they were covering the bus. And then when I looked into it, I'm like, damn, that's fucked up. Like, KNBC is the broadcast channel. But when I saw who it was and where it was, I'm like, damn. Because that's over there, like, in my little area where I be riding my bike and stuff. They literally take off from the airport that I ride my bike around. And I was like, damn, that's fucked up. Because I be seeing them.
01:06:20
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:06:21
Speaker 3: I don't know how I didn't hear the crash or the explosion. It was on Nordhoff. It was on Nordhoff in DeSoto.
01:06:28
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know. I think, so fun fact about me, I love helicopters.
01:06:37
Speaker 1: Ever since I was a kid, like I've actually looked into taking helicopter lessons and stuff like that.
01:06:42
Speaker 2: And then what deterred me was the Kobe thing.
01:06:45
Speaker 1: Like I was literally about to sign up because they have helicopters at the Compton Airport. And they have helicopters at Long Beach Airport. And I was going to do lessons and stuff like that. And I forgot one of my boys that used to work at the other radio station, he actually went and got certified as a helicopter pilot. And I was like, oh, I want to do that. So I was on the way to do that. And then the COVID thing happened. I was like, I'm not doing it.
01:07:07
Speaker 3: I don't have no reason to be up there. I'm so cool. When I was just watching it, though, the footage, like, or just, When you think about the whole situation just itself, that was given like very final destination because it's like an accident. We don't know where this woman was coming from. Did you see the footage of her hitting the bus? Yeah. It literally looked just like the one on Slauson and La Brea.
01:07:31
Speaker 2: She was just bailing through it.
01:07:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, she was going. She actually looked like she was going faster than her. But we don't know what happened. We don't know what caused her to be driving so fast. We don't know. But she did survive.
01:07:42
Speaker 1: She survived. That be the thing about shit like this. Like, you the nigga that did this.
01:07:47
Speaker 3: She survived. She's currently incarcerated with a bail of $ 4 million. And I was just wondering, it's like, everything is just like a cause and effect. Because all these people on the bus, during the time of the day, people probably just getting home from school, probably getting off of work. This bus driver, they just doing their job, you know, and then here comes this car driving freaking recklessly. You hit the car. These people are in a helicopter also doing their job. And then they crashed. The helicopter explodes. And it's just like a chain effect. It's just like a ripple effect. And that kind of fucked me up because everybody was at work. Everybody was at work, you know, like imagine getting up to go start your day. go to work and then something just so freaking unfortunate like this happened. She probably ruined so many lives, so many lives, you know? Um, so she's currently in jail. Uh, the bell is $ 4 million. Do you think she should be responsible for all of the deaths?
01:08:46
Speaker 2: Yeah. Not that, not the helicopter. I don't know. Oh, I don't know. I don't think that's how I don't. So the compassion in me wants to do that. Yes.
01:08:58
Speaker 1: The logic in me says no. Like, that's... Those are two separate incidences. Because I don't... I mean, they're obviously going to investigate the helicopter thing and we'll find out if it was fuel or mechanical error.
01:09:09
Speaker 3: Well, there's a... Did you see the video that was 40 minutes before the crash?
01:09:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, she asked about the fuel. So, there's going to be something done with that. The lady who was driving the SUV....
01:09:20
Speaker 1: I don't think it was responsible for the helicopter. But them people on that bus, she's definitely responsible for all that.
01:09:25
Speaker 3: Yeah. I want her to be responsible for all the deaths. But I feel like once you, once they do do their investigation and it's like, it's not like the car hit the helicopter. The helicopter was there because of the car accident. But for all we know, when they took off the next day, the same issue, you know, is going to happen. And you know me, I'm going to get in my conspiracy. Okay. When she was talking to him, I never heard him respond. Was he conscious?
01:09:58
Speaker 2: Oh, you think something happened to him?
01:09:59
Speaker 3: She kept saying, can you pull it up? Can you pull it up? Nobody was responding to her.
01:10:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, he wasn't saying nothing. So he might have had a medical emergency.
01:10:09
Speaker 3: Conspiracy. You know, I don't know anything, but that's what I was thinking.
01:10:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, I could see that. I could see that. That'd be my thing, too. Like, I'd be wanting a backup of the backup. That's why, like, when I fly, I like that there's two pilots.
01:10:23
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
01:10:24
Speaker 1: Like, because if something happened to him, I need you to figure this out. We got to get on the ground. But in helicopters, it's like it's one-on-one. And what I didn't know, also props to everybody that does the newscopter thing, because what I didn't realize, I was looking at pictures. They were always posting pictures of her. I didn't realize she's reporting and she's working the cameras.
01:10:46
Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't know that either.
01:10:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, she got a whole... She's the one in the... There's like a... Like, that's why she sit... Like, he sits front right and she sits back left. And the back seat is completely taken up by the camera system, the computers, the monitors, and everything like that. And she's sitting there with a joystick. And as she's reporting to on air, she's like... And if you look right here, she's the one moving the camera too. And it's like, bro, I don't... Like, I'm good at video games, but that's a lot of motor skills.
01:11:14
Speaker 2: Like, that's... So respect to everybody who does that.
01:11:18
Speaker 3: And it was also reported that she had got engaged in October.
01:11:21
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. Yeah.
01:11:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's sad. It was definitely sad, man. Rest in peace to those people. And, like, you know, like you said, you could just be going to work.
01:11:32
Speaker 2: So make sure you live every day.
01:11:35
Speaker 3: All right, well, I want to laugh now.
01:11:37
Speaker 2: Okay.
01:11:38
Speaker 3: Jezebel, I sent the money. Did you get the Zelle?
01:11:42
Speaker 2: What's fucked up is... Shout out to Papoose. Shout out to Remy Ma. Shout out to Clarissa Shields. We ain't in that.
01:11:50
Speaker 3: We're definitely in the group chat.
01:11:53
Speaker 2: They added everybody.
01:11:56
Speaker 1: Okay, so if you remember, Remy Ma dropped her record.
01:12:00
Speaker 2: It's called WFD. Everybody knows the song. It's fire. I ain't finna act like it ain't. The beat hard. She rapping.
01:12:11
Speaker 1: Remy is one of the ones we all know Remy can rap for real. Even before the relationship with Papoose, Remy was still one of them ones that could rap for real. Remy drops her record. We all know what's been going on with all of their drama and stuff like that, the back and forth and whatnot. Somebody told me that Clarissa started posting their DMs or something like that.
01:12:32
Speaker 3: No, Remy posted the DMs.
01:12:33
Speaker 2: Remy posted the DMs of Clarissa.
01:12:35
Speaker 3: Her and Clarissa.
01:12:36
Speaker 1: Her and Clarissa, whatever. So Remy dropped her record. I thought it was done. Like, I thought, not that they wasn't going to be for or not have shit to say, because whenever they go sit down and do interviews, people talk about this stuff, and Clarissa ain't running from no conversations.
01:12:51
Speaker 2: Like, she just not.
01:12:52
Speaker 1: She answer every question. She don't care what it's about. That's actually why I fuck with Clarissa Shields. Papoose drops this record called Jezebel this week, shoots a video, and it's clear what he's talking about.
01:13:07
Speaker 2: He got some bars off in there. It's damn near.
01:13:10
Speaker 1: a three-verse song, like a full record, and he getting some shit off his chest, the hook is, you know, it's direct. And the verses are, he even name drops her. Like, he didn't run from, he didn't leave it up to speculation. He like, no, this is what I'm talking about. I'm just curious to know, and I would love to have Pap on the show, but I don't know why he waited till.
01:13:34
Speaker 2: Now to drop the record. Like, do you have a speculation on why?
01:13:37
Speaker 3: Well, they was arguing that morning.
01:13:39
Speaker 2: Which morning?
01:13:40
Speaker 3: The morning that he dropped it. It was a whole back and forth.
01:13:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he, I mean, unless he recorded the record and shot a video like that afternoon.
01:13:50
Speaker 3: I could be wrong, but I don't think that this is his first time. I think he did something before she did the on the radar. It wasn't direct as this one is, but I think he mentioned something else. But also he went live and said, I wrote all your shit.
01:14:08
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. I forgot about that.
01:14:09
Speaker 3: That was like last year.
01:14:10
Speaker 2: I forgot about that.
01:14:11
Speaker 3: I'm looking for the songs right now, but I can't find it. But yeah, he did. This isn't, this wasn't the, well, okay. They were arguing on Twitter that morning. So what was that Friday morning? We had already had already left. Her and Clarissa was going back and forth on Twitter. That's how, that's why Remy posted the DMS. And then I saw that them saying that they had court that morning for a divorce.
01:14:34
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:14:35
Speaker 3: The same morning or whatever. So, Obviously, it was a music video shot for it, so he probably already had it in the tuck. But he didn't say anything on the song that we weren't already told.
01:14:46
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:14:48
Speaker 1: He said some things on the song told that, like, even, like, when he mentioned her by name, I was like, oh, okay. Because Pap is not an extroverted, like, loud. Even, I don't remember in his battles, like, when he did his battle, I remember him being, like, animated.
01:15:06
Speaker 3: They're both doing too much.
01:15:08
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:15:09
Speaker 3: All three of them.
01:15:09
Speaker 2: All three of them.
01:15:10
Speaker 3: All three of y'all.
01:15:11
Speaker 2: There was another girl in it, too.
01:15:13
Speaker 3: Who?
01:15:14
Speaker 2: The friend or somebody. I think she was, it was four people at one point.
01:15:18
Speaker 3: You talking about when Ms. Hustle dissed Remy?
01:15:21
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:15:22
Speaker 3: That's a battle rapper.
01:15:23
Speaker 2: Okay.
01:15:25
Speaker 3: So she not really in it, though.
01:15:26
Speaker 2: She not in the mix of it. No.
01:15:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, they all doing too much. Like, I'm ready to be removed from.
01:15:32
Speaker 2: But they in the booth?
01:15:34
Speaker 3: And I think Remy about to cook him. She been promoting this Why I Get Married track with Kiki White. I think she about to smoke him. Her and Milk Mills, they running around booed up. Have you seen that? Yeah. They all booed. You see the one they dropped today in the bathroom?
01:15:53
Speaker 2: Mm-mm.
01:15:54
Speaker 3: You see them in the bathroom today? Mm-mm. Let me show you them today.
01:15:58
Speaker 2: It's on Remy's page?
01:15:59
Speaker 3: It's on his page.
01:16:01
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. I don't know what his page is.
01:16:02
Speaker 3: It's on Mills' page. M-I-L-L... M-I-L-L-Y-Z. Let me see. I just DM'd it to you.
01:16:17
Speaker 2: Oh, okay. Oh, yeah, I did see this. I did see this.
01:16:20
Speaker 3: And they got a banger.
01:16:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, Millie's. Oh, my God.
01:16:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, take me out the group chat.
01:16:36
Speaker 2: So, all right, two questions.
01:16:39
Speaker 1: One, does this not satisfy them being in the booth for Gina Views?
01:16:45
Speaker 3: Yes, except for all of the goofy shit.
01:16:49
Speaker 2: The Twitter.
01:16:50
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't like all of the Twitter stuff.
01:16:52
Speaker 2: So if they was just dropping records, you'd be cool?
01:16:55
Speaker 3: You know how Dot was just dropping songs?
01:16:57
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:16:57
Speaker 3: And he wasn't on Instagram. He wasn't tweeting. He wasn't doing no subliminals.
01:17:00
Speaker 2: Same thing T.I. did.
01:17:02
Speaker 3: Just rap.
01:17:03
Speaker 2: He was just dropping records.
01:17:04
Speaker 3: All of everything else is... is goofy.
01:17:07
Speaker 2: Okay.
01:17:07
Speaker 3: But it's too many people involved now.
01:17:10
Speaker 2: Well, Clarissa don't rap.
01:17:11
Speaker 3: Yes, she do. Not.
01:17:13
Speaker 2: Okay. You better not.
01:17:14
Speaker 3: All right. Watch your mouth.
01:17:16
Speaker 2: I don't want no smoke. She's not a seasoned rapper like Papoose and Remy are. Mm-hmm. So.
01:17:26
Speaker 2: Do she still get held to that same standard of getting the boo?
01:17:29
Speaker 3: Since she rap now?
01:17:30
Speaker 2: Yes. Okay, got you.
01:17:31
Speaker 3: Yes, but I... Just on some girl shit, I don't feel like she should even be involved in this at all, speaking up, saying anything publicly.
01:17:39
Speaker 2: And they divorce. Yeah.
01:17:41
Speaker 3: Now she's doing her part as far as it's like, you know, defending her man. And then we don't know what's going on behind the scenes. We don't know who's lying. We don't know who's, you know, causing chaos and stuff behind the scenes. So for me, I understand why she's involved, but I would prefer that this just be handled offline between Pap and Remy.
01:18:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, without the records. Without none of it.
01:18:07
Speaker 3: No, I don't want to see them dissing each other.
01:18:10
Speaker 1: I don't want to see them dissing each other either, but that's what I'm saying. But, like, you know, people was like, did.
01:18:14
Speaker 2: You know who said get in the booth? They in the booth.
01:18:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, upset of Twitter.
01:18:17
Speaker 2: Right. So you'll take that over that, but you don't want to see neither one of them. No.
01:18:21
Speaker 3: Like, because it's like now we're, I don't want this to get messy.
01:18:25
Speaker 1: Yeah, because he said, even in the Jezebel record, he reiterated, like, I wrote.
01:18:30
Speaker 3: I wrote Conceit It. Yeah, he even said you went and got a fake papoose. Easy do look just like papoose.
01:18:38
Speaker 1: I don't think that's fair, though, because certain people have a type.
01:18:46
Speaker 3: I'm going to be real with you. They all favor each other to me.
01:18:48
Speaker 2: Everybody. Everybody. Everybody look like each other.
01:18:53
Speaker 3: It's the same font. Yeah. It's the same font.
01:18:56
Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of the family beefing and dissing each other either. But, you know, we got a couple slaps out of it. I might play them, but shout out to Papu.
01:19:05
Speaker 2: Shout out to Remy. Mm-hmm.
01:19:07
Speaker 1: I want to salute to Anderson. Paak and Cordae. They dropped a song and a video called A Good Day. Now, when I first, I know that Anderson. Paak was advertising this and it was coming up and it was like, all right, cool, cool. Then when I saw the video, I was like, damn, this is really, really dope. Because Cordae, obviously Cordae and Anderson. Paak, they dope artists and they dope, they can rap and stuff like that. But the video made me want to watch the whole video. And I was just like, it made me think about what videos are still bringing that kind of feeling back where like it may, I mean, we're both fan of video Carol downs.
01:19:42
Speaker 2: And stuff like that. So like, I remember at a time where you had to kind of.
01:19:46
Speaker 1: Watch a whole video cause like they would tell a story, like it would be like a dude show up and you don't know who this dude is. Remember like trapped in the closet series and stuff like that. So I remember music videos telling a story while the song is being played.
01:20:00
Speaker 2: And so to me, This kind of reminded me of that.
01:20:02
Speaker 1: It was like it reminds me of like a Will Ferrell like sitcom type of thing.
01:20:06
Speaker 2: But they're telling a story through the whole video. And I just thought it was dope.
01:20:10
Speaker 1: And it made me made me realize that we don't have a lot of those videos anymore where.
01:20:14
Speaker 2: People have like a plot.
01:20:16
Speaker 1: It's more just like, oh, it's we in the club or green screen.
01:20:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like stuff like that in the car. Yeah.
01:20:22
Speaker 1: But there is there videos that stand out to you that you remember where it was like a whole thread that you had to almost follow from beginning to end?
01:20:31
Speaker 3: Murder, Inc.
01:20:33
Speaker 2: The Murder, Inc. one. Oh, all their videos.
01:20:36
Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
01:20:39
Speaker 3: All Murder, Inc. videos had a story.
01:20:41
Speaker 2: You right. You know my favorite one was? Jabberwool and Charlie Baltimore.
01:20:46
Speaker 1: Um.
01:20:46
Speaker 2: Down Ass Bitch.
01:20:47
Speaker 3: Mm-hmm. You seen the extended version? Yeah.
01:20:50
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
01:20:50
Speaker 1: Down Ass Bitch was a fire video. Because I'm waiting to see, like... Is she finna get out of jail?
01:20:55
Speaker 2: Like... Mm-hmm. You know what I'm saying? Like... But it just.
01:20:59
Speaker 1: To me, it brought back that feeling of those type of videos. I would like to see those kind of things.
01:21:03
Speaker 3: Ashanti Rain on me is very cinematic. Yeah. The extended version.
01:21:07
Speaker 2: Yeah. There was a song called, what was that song called? We Takin' Over. It was a Khaled song with Wayne and Akon.
01:21:20
Speaker 1: It was like Rick Ross. It was a hell of niggas on the song. That song had a through line, too. It was like them running from the feds or something.
01:21:25
Speaker 3: That's when Rick Ross jumped in the ocean?
01:21:29
Speaker 2: Think so i think that's that's the.
01:21:32
Speaker 3: First question i'm asking them why did you.
01:21:35
Speaker 2: Jump in the ocean who is that.
01:21:38
Speaker 1: I remember a video called uh remember when trina did a song called told y'all.
01:21:42
Speaker 3: With rick ross to get down and.
01:21:45
Speaker 1: That was a story too they was running from the feds and stuff i don't know i just miss videos.
01:21:49
Speaker 3: Like that well they don't have a reason to ask storylines to music videos anymore because of the video because the music no there's no video shows.
01:21:55
Speaker 2: There's no video shows to showcase.
01:21:57
Speaker 3: We just, and we, I mean, obviously, 106th and Park has been gone for a long time. We just recently lost MTV Gems.
01:22:04
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, yeah, you right. It's still, to me, I would, just nostalgia, I miss it. Would you call?
01:22:12
Speaker 3: No. Offset is the last nigga to give me relationship advice. And they playing in our face with this show. They are literally playing in our face with this show.
01:22:22
Speaker 2: Wait, who would you call? First, me or Offset to get a relationship with me?
01:22:28
Speaker 3: I'll call Offset before I call.
01:22:31
Speaker 2: You. Because he got married. Because he got married, right. You don't believe in marriage. He got married.
01:22:37
Speaker 3: He actually got married.
01:22:42
Speaker 2: Is this a form of an artist getting a podcast?
01:22:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, low key. I think that it's, I mean, the promo, the promo is the promo, but I think that it's probably going to be more of like Justin LaVoy-ish? Yeah.
01:22:56
Speaker 2: So if.
01:22:58
Speaker 1: You don't know what we're talking about, Offset basically has got a new show coming, and Offset is giving relationship advice on his hotline.
01:23:07
Speaker 3: Would you call Offset for relationship advice?
01:23:09
Speaker 2: Hell no. I fuck with Set. That's the homie, but no. I'm not calling Set for no relationship advice.
01:23:14
Speaker 1: And even the promo seemed kind of like, it seemed like, I know it's a promo. Like, obviously it's going to be a little staged or whatever the case may be. It just don't seem, I don't know what kind of, I don't know, I'm trying to phrase this correctly. I don't know what insight he has to offer to others about their relationship.
01:23:41
Speaker 2: Based upon his decision making.
01:23:44
Speaker 3: Okay, but, but, let me play devil's advocate.
01:23:49
Speaker 2: He been through so much.
01:23:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, because it's not, specifically relationship advice is dating advice.
01:23:58
Speaker 2: Dating advice.
01:23:59
Speaker 3: You know, so I have a homeboy that I call a whoop-de-whoop trying to talk to me. That's what he did. What you think this mean? What should I do? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And that's not necessarily like feeding towards me, Regina in a relationship. That's still Regina dating, you know? So in that instance, offset could probably give relationship, give dating advice. Because he's still dating. He has dating experience. And he went to the highest level. He got married. Did he do it right? I wouldn't say that. I wouldn't say that I follow his lead. But maybe he is. He's probably a serial dater. He knows how to date.
01:24:39
Speaker 2: Do you think that. He do the gifts.
01:24:41
Speaker 3: He do it up.
01:24:45
Speaker 1: So okay let me ask you this. Do you think that someone's. Outcome determines their viability.
01:24:52
Speaker 2: To help you.
01:24:53
Speaker 3: Who's outcome?
01:24:54
Speaker 2: Like, their outcome.
01:24:55
Speaker 1: Like, for instance, like, Offset, we all know his relationship kind of spectrum. But then you have, like, Ciara and Russell Wilson.
01:25:03
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:25:04
Speaker 1: Most people be like, oh, I would talk to them before I would talk to them. But me, being the person I am, I learn more from people's failures and mishaps than I learn from the successes.
01:25:15
Speaker 3: Well, I don't think that... renters should be given homeowner advice. So just because you give me a consultation doesn't mean that I'm going to be 100% successful in whatever it is that I'm doing. So you can give me advice and you can tell me, you know, based on your experience, based on experiences of others, but at the end of the day, it's still up to me to fully execute. Yeah, to do it. So I could get advice. I used to get my daddy advice when I was 13. I had told my daddy... Because his girl kept trying to go through his phone. And every time she went through his phone, they would get into it. And I said, Daddy, I said, I said, Daddy, I said, she keep going through your phone and getting into it with you because she think that you doing what she doing in her phone. Go through her phone because you projecting. If you think I'm cheating on you, remember I just told you about the dude that kept saying that I was messing with everybody up here and all of that? So I just, I don't argue, you know. So I'm like, no, no, no, I never mess with that person. No, I never mess with that person. No, I never, you know. No, I didn't fuck them New York niggas. No, I didn't, you know. And then I had to ask myself, like, oh, you think I'm doing what you're doing. So since you're fucking around, you think I'm fucking around. What you doing? You know, like, so if you think that I'm doing, if you accusing me of something, it's because you're doing it. But I'm 13 telling my daddy this. I didn't have no experience. You know what I'm saying?
01:26:49
Speaker 2: So, yeah, the experience doesn't determine your perspective or intuition.
01:26:53
Speaker 3: It's just logic versus emotion. Because he might be a logical person.
01:27:01
Speaker 2: Do you think that Offset... I don't know. I don't know what this is. Like, I don't know. You know what I mean?
01:27:07
Speaker 3: It's promo.
01:27:08
Speaker 2: You think he dropping an album?
01:27:10
Speaker 3: No, it's promo. It's promo for... Oh, it might be. Is it a rollout for an album?
01:27:14
Speaker 1: It got to be... I don't... That's what I'm saying. As I'm looking at this, I'm like, this ain't no.
01:27:20
Speaker 1: Like, it ain't a podcast. It ain't like a show. So I'm thinking to myself, I'm like, bro, this is a rollout.
01:27:25
Speaker 3: Okay, it's probably a rollout. You want to know what's so crazy? That what he's doing, that was my exact idea for the whole fashion's return. Was for people to be calling my phone.
01:27:35
Speaker 2: Word. Yeah.
01:27:36
Speaker 3: For people to be calling my phone.
01:27:37
Speaker 2: You can still do it.
01:27:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can still do it. I can still do it. But... Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what this is. I don't know what to think of it. The caption says something I need Friday.
01:27:49
Speaker 2: Something I need Friday.
01:27:51
Speaker 3: It's a rollout, bro. Oh, it's a song.
01:27:53
Speaker 2: So remember when, remember when.
01:27:56
Speaker 3: Who's collabed on that post? Nobody, it's just him. And that's all the captions say? Yeah. Yeah, it's a song. The reason why I thought that it might have been a show is because Revolt posted it.
01:28:06
Speaker 2: Got you.
01:28:06
Speaker 3: I thought it was a new Revolt show.
01:28:08
Speaker 1: Do you remember when, I think it was the baby in Young Miami started flirting and shit? on Twitter or whatever they was flirting on, and people was like, well, what's going on right there? And it ended up being a rollout for a song. I think that artists are starting to understand, like, you can't just be like, my new single coming out, because it'll kind of get lost in the sauce. So I think people are starting to understand, like, people want storylines and, like, they want the full thing as opposed to just being like.
01:28:35
Speaker 2: Oh, my new song is out.
01:28:37
Speaker 1: So that's why that's what made me think about this that specific DaBaby.
01:28:40
Speaker 3: Situation yeah I literally thought that now that she just show me ain't nobody collabed or none of that yeah it's a rollout and if it's Friday everything drop we gon' know by 9pm tonight yeah we gon' know we gon' know tonight.
01:28:52
Speaker 1: Shout out to Offset man also make sure so do you want to talk about this mixtape cause you just you dropped this video.
01:29:00
Speaker 3: Who, me? Yeah.
01:29:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, who, you?
01:29:04
Speaker 3: I keep forgetting that I got a mixtape.
01:29:05
Speaker 2: Bro, Sham, okay. How you forget you got a mixtape?
01:29:10
Speaker 3: I just got too much shit going on. I forget every week I got my own radio show until I go over there and have to record myself.
01:29:17
Speaker 2: Talk about this video.
01:29:19
Speaker 3: Okay, R & B Bitch, the mixtape is out now. I just dropped, well, the full thing is on my YouTube. It's also on Untitled, and it's on Audio Mac with some songs missing due to copyright issues, and it's on SoundCloud with some songs missing due to copyright issues. I think that's what's really messing me up. I just don't like all this copyright stuff, which I already knew that I was going to run into, but I thought that at least on my YouTube that Because some of the songs are actually blocked. Like, I don't know what I'm about to do when I get to Guapdad and Kai Cash. I don't know what I'm about to do when I get to them because it's, like, absolutely blocked. Like, it's not like, oh, you just can't monetize or anything. Like, it's actually blocked. Like, I can't even drop it. So I thought that, because this is the same thing to me what I was doing with the Cyphers, right? And obviously, like I said, I knew of the copyright issues, but I didn't know that I was not going to be able to fully promote it. I thought that it was just going to tell me that you just can't turn the ads on, which is how the Cyphers was. That's why I never made no money off the Cyphers. But Shampton 1016 featuring me and Tally. Me and Tally are on the intro. Tally Spencer. tally spencer my homegirl we uh media personality tally spencer but that's my friend um so we uh we went to the studio me me and tally went to sham studio session he recorded it and it was so nostalgia that i was just like the everything just the way he he named he drops like he has a a scheme where he like he's speaking fluently but he's using song titles So he references like pretty Ricky. He like goes through like Bobby Valentino. Like he, he references a whole bunch of song titles as like, but in a, in a, in a, in a conversation style, if that makes sense. And I'm like, we got to do this at the bridge. We got to do this at the bridge. So Shan was like, you got to put a skit on there though. Like you need to have a skit. If you really, if you really want the nostalgia, like you got to put a skit on there. So we did that. We went to the bridge. Obviously if you from LA, that was a space that we all used to go to. You go to the movies and, You might have went up there to see a movie. You might have went up there to get in the squabble. You know, it just depends. It depends on what cloth you cut from. But, yeah, it's out now, and it's on the video. I'll drop the video. It's on my YouTube. Next week, I'll be dropping the Jason Cash one.
01:31:49
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah?
01:31:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he did a whole fashion jingle, and we kind of combined the videos together. And that one is fun. So that one is a storyline. And it's me harassing him as he's working out. Just so happen he's working out with Sham.
01:32:02
Speaker 2: Damn. You shot a rack video?
01:32:04
Speaker 3: I shot a rack video.
01:32:06
Speaker 1: Is there a method to how you dropping them? Like a specific order or are they coming out in order?
01:32:11
Speaker 3: They're coming out in order.
01:32:12
Speaker 2: It's just the blocked ones you can't.
01:32:14
Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm going to cross that bridge when I get to it. Because I've been sitting on it for so long. I mean, the tape been done since 2024. And obviously I waited for the party to put the videos out. But it's like I've been sitting on them so long that if I keep brainstorming or keep trying to like calculate and figure things out, they'll never come out. So when I get to Guabda, I'll Nick Grant too.
01:32:35
Speaker 2: What if you put them all together and drop it all together?
01:32:38
Speaker 1: It would still pick it up.
01:32:39
Speaker 3: So that one's not flagged on my channel.
01:32:42
Speaker 1: No, I'm saying how you ran it at the party, at your party where you put them all together, and you drop it like that, it'll still pick it up and block them.
01:32:49
Speaker 3: So I did an audio version like that, and that was not flagged. So that's on my channel.
01:32:55
Speaker 2: Might be something to think about, though.
01:32:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, or I can do that, and then it'll fuck the whole thing up.
01:32:59
Speaker 2: Fuck the whole thing up, yeah.
01:33:01
Speaker 3: I think I'll be good on social media, but it's just YouTube, which my highest engagement is on social media anyway versus YouTube.
01:33:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, you dropping them on X.
01:33:11
Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
01:33:12
Speaker 2: I think X is a good— you' ll be straight on there, too.
01:33:15
Speaker 3: You're going to go this whole show without us acknowledging that your voice is on the last episode?
01:33:22
Speaker 2: Of The Drop? Yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm on The Drop with Snowfall Saga. You can hear me on the show. You're on the radio on the show. I'm on the radio in 1991 on The Drop with Snowfall Saga. Yes, that's me on DJ Block. When I walked in, PB was like, what's up, DJ Block? I'm like, oh, he's in the episode.
01:33:45
Speaker 1: What's dope is, I also want to acknowledge, yes, thank you. Shout out to Malcolm Spellman. Shout out to Emile. Shout out to Jason Martin. Shout out to Salas. Everybody had input.
01:33:55
Speaker 2: Ayla, my homegirl, Ayla. I've known Ayla 20 years.
01:33:59
Speaker 1: But the other thing that was dope to me was, and I don't even know if I'm out of turn.
01:34:04
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, whatever.
01:34:06
Speaker 1: So they actually got a Nipsey verse cleared. to be the theme song of this series. And I thought that it was a last-minute Hail Mary that they pulled off. And it came from a conversation. When they told me, I couldn't believe it because I already know what that take. Like, I know what that is, and I know Sam ain't going for no nothing. So when I talked to Problem, Jason Martin, he was like, yeah, I was in the studio with Simba. And they was, because Rance, Shout to C's, Monstrosity, and Rance, they were making the music for, they made all the music for this show. So, Jason Martin was, like, in the studio. And Simba, out of nowhere, goes, man, this shit sound hard. This shit's some shit that Nip would just float on, like. And Problem was like, yeah, that's a great idea. So, he just called Sam, just, and was like, hey, I got a crazy idea, bro.
01:34:55
Speaker 3: Like, whoop, whoop, whoop.
01:34:57
Speaker 1: And they was able to put it together in, like, less than a week. Get the contracts and everything done. And so that's how Nipsey ended up on as a theme song for this show.
01:35:06
Speaker 3: I think that that was absolutely genius to put Nipsey on a theme song for the show because this is the other thing. If he was still here, he probably would have been on the show.
01:35:15
Speaker 2: Oh, he would have been on the show for sure.
01:35:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, he probably would have been on the show.
01:35:18
Speaker 2: For sure would have been on the show.
01:35:20
Speaker 3: And I was just happy to hear that. And was it the original version of Dedication?
01:35:27
Speaker 1: So, yeah, there was a verse from Dedication. Well, Rance talked about that. So Rance put that out there. From Rance's... Yeah, that was a verse that they had took off dedication and just had it in the tuck. That was the verse that... So if you listen to Dedication, that's the song on Victory Lap. Dedication is a song with Nipsey Hussle and Kendrick Lamar. Where Kendrick is rapping, that was where that verse was supposed.
01:35:46
Speaker 2: To go, allegedly.
01:35:48
Speaker 3: I love that so much because it's like we just keep continuing to get Nipsey. He's just still living with us.
01:35:55
Speaker 2: Just like he ain't went nowhere.
01:35:56
Speaker 3: Exactly. I love that so much. But also... Is this public, the original idea for Snowfall? Or do we just know that?
01:36:08
Speaker 2: I think it's not.
01:36:10
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think people talk about it, but you talking about Freeway?
01:36:14
Speaker 2: Freeway Rick? Yeah. Oh, well then I don't know what you mean.
01:36:18
Speaker 3: You don't know who was supposed to play the uncle and the auntie on Snowfall?
01:36:22
Speaker 2: Who?
01:36:24
Speaker 3: I just asked you, was it public?
01:36:26
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know if it's public, to be honest.
01:36:29
Speaker 3: Do you know the story?
01:36:31
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's public, to be honest. I think I know what you're talking about.
01:36:34
Speaker 3: But I don't... We talked about her today, and she's from LA.
01:36:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think people know about her. Nobody know about her. I think it's a little inside baseball.
01:36:40
Speaker 2: And then what.
01:36:40
Speaker 3: About the liability?
01:36:47
Speaker 2: What do you want?
01:36:48
Speaker 3: He said, which one? Put the camera on him. Oh!
01:36:59
Speaker 1: That's... That's public, I think. I think that's public. I don't remember. I think that's public. YG was supposed to.
01:37:09
Speaker 2: Be in it.
01:37:11
Speaker 3: And that's all just so full circle to me.
01:37:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, because of YG Nip.
01:37:15
Speaker 3: Exactly, Lauren and all of that. And then, even when you think about the current space that The Drop is in, as far as the cast is concerned, how LA it actually is. It's not a bunch of actors. I mean, it's actors, obviously, but It's like heavily filled with artists. Yeah. And it kind of reminds me of back in the day. Remember like the low budget films with all the rappers in them?
01:37:38
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:37:39
Speaker 3: We don't have those no more.
01:37:40
Speaker 2: Yeah, because them shit sucked. I mean, they were great.
01:37:43
Speaker 3: No, they didn't.
01:37:43
Speaker 2: I'm talking about the quality.
01:37:45
Speaker 3: Hot boys?
01:37:46
Speaker 2: I'm talking about the quality sucked on them movies.
01:37:48
Speaker 3: Thicker than water?
01:37:49
Speaker 1: Quality sucked on them movies. I got the hookup, fucking all the movies. The quality sucked on them, but they were good. They were dope hood classics. State property? State property was kind of cool.
01:38:00
Speaker 3: State property was cool.
01:38:03
Speaker 2: That shit was kind of cool. But even the big budgets.
01:38:05
Speaker 3: Belly?
01:38:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, Belly was fire.
01:38:07
Speaker 3: You know, like, led by two rappers? We don't have that no more. We don't have that anymore. That's what the drop is doing for us.
01:38:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think you're right.
01:38:15
Speaker 3: What shows or movies do we get where it's just filled with, like, rappers and stuff like that?
01:38:19
Speaker 2: You know what I think, too?
01:38:20
Speaker 1: I think that the rappers that could pull off movie roles kind of, like, are starting to, like, phase out.
01:38:26
Speaker 2: And they left, like, DMX was amazing. To me, I love seeing them.
01:38:30
Speaker 1: In movies he i mean he plays similar roles but i think he had that acting down i like seeing ll cool j and rose.
01:38:37
Speaker 3: But i feel like they were even still doing it early in their careers yeah you're right it was it wasn't like fresh in their careers but like at least towards like like you know like they were in they prime in.
01:38:48
Speaker 1: These movies you know what you right because a lot of those a lot of the veterans did it early and we don't like you ain't I can see Skilla Baby doing.
01:38:56
Speaker 2: Something soon he is.
01:38:59
Speaker 3: You know what I'm talking about yeah.
01:39:01
Speaker 1: I can see Skilla Baby like I'm talking about diving deep in like 50 Cent did like I can see him going all the way into it um yeah I don't know if rappers of this generation care enough like the newer generation yeah like in Skilla's class like I don't see like Rod Wave going out to be.
01:39:18
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, Dirk was in force.
01:39:20
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:39:21
Speaker 3: He had an A-roll in force.
01:39:23
Speaker 2: I think G-Erbo would be cool.
01:39:26
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he probably know what he doing. Obviously, Joey Badass.
01:39:30
Speaker 2: Joey is phenomenal.
01:39:31
Speaker 3: And then Dave East.
01:39:33
Speaker 2: East is good, too.
01:39:33
Speaker 3: Yeah.
01:39:34
Speaker 2: East is really good.
01:39:34
Speaker 3: But I just feel like the era before ours, it was more musicians and even singers and stuff. That was people was doing movie roles.
01:39:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
01:39:46
Speaker 1: Maybe it's just a thing where it's a combination of the times and also, like, budgets and shit. Because you got to think, like, these artists, they don't even want to do nothing. Like, a lot of these niggas don't even want to go to the radio station and promote their own song that niggas is playing.
01:40:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
01:40:05
Speaker 1: So it's just like, it'd be hard to get them to go sit on a movie set for two months and learn they lines and take it serious and not be high and, you know?
01:40:14
Speaker 2: So I don't know. But Man, I think.
01:40:18
Speaker 3: I'm not calling you your name for the next six weeks.
01:40:24
Speaker 2: Six weeks? Yeah. So what's my name?
01:40:27
Speaker 3: You're Block.
01:40:28
Speaker 2: DJ Block. DJ Block.
01:40:30
Speaker 3: DJ Block Crip.
01:40:31
Speaker 1: I'm calling you. DJ Block has made his debut. Check out The Drop of Snowfall Saga. Also make sure you.
01:40:38
Speaker 3: How does your character spell his name?
01:40:42
Speaker 1: So it's funny you say that. Because I was going to post– I should have posted. I'm going to wait.
01:40:47
Speaker 2: No, wait till.
01:40:48
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to wait.
01:40:48
Speaker 2: I'm going to wait.
01:40:50
Speaker 1: But I was going to post something, and it's spelled regular, but I remember seeing in an early draft of when they was doing the thing for me to be on the radio in the series. I remember it being like it's supposed to be spelled a certain way. But I don't– I think they just went with just B-L-O-C-K.
01:41:12
Speaker 3: C-K?
01:41:12
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:41:13
Speaker 3: And what was the original spelling?
01:41:15
Speaker 2: It probably was two. There was no K.
01:41:17
Speaker 3: Two Cs?
01:41:18
Speaker 2: Maybe.
01:41:18
Speaker 3: I need B-L-X-O-C. Okay.
01:41:24
Speaker 2: You can't verbally whack out a hood.
01:41:26
Speaker 3: I'm not whacking out a hood. It's X-O-C.
01:41:29
Speaker 2: I know. I get it. But I'm saying I'm not a gangbanger in the series.
01:41:33
Speaker 3: Why though? Everybody else is.
01:41:35
Speaker 2: No, they're not.
01:41:36
Speaker 1: Lamar is not a gangbanger. He a music producer. And Wanda's an old crackhead. She not a gangbanger.
01:41:41
Speaker 3: Look. Okay, Wanda is definitely affiliated.
01:41:43
Speaker 2: Leon, that's who Niggazeeda worry about.
01:41:48
Speaker 3: Where he from?
01:41:49
Speaker 2: He from the Imperial Court Projects.
01:41:52
Speaker 3: But this is how I feel. Everybody is from, like the lady, I forgot her name.
01:41:57
Speaker 2: Jenny, the white lady?
01:41:58
Speaker 3: No, the lady that's affiliated with the Bloods.
01:42:01
Speaker 2: Oh, Dara.
01:42:01
Speaker 3: Dara.
01:42:02
Speaker 2: Dara for sure. She's a super Blood.
