00:00:00
Speaker 1: Hey guys, welcome to another episode of Selective Ignorance.
00:00:02
Speaker 2: However, before we get to this week's episode, I want to remind you guys to purchase my book, No Holes Barred, a dual manifesto of sexual exploration and power. So feel free to go to your local bookstores, preferably queer owned, black owned, or woman owned to support them, but also just click the button on Amazon.com. Barnes and Nobles, or wherever you read your books. Again, that is No Holes Barred, a dual manifesto of sexual exploration and power written by yours truly, and my co-host of the Decisions Decisions podcast, Wheezy. Make sure y'all get that. Now let's get to this week's episode. This is Mandy B. Welcome to Selective Ignorance, a production of the Black Effect Podcast Network and iHeartRadio.
00:00:45
Speaker 1: Ayo!
00:00:45
Speaker 2: Welcome to another episode of Selective Ignorance Podcast with.
00:00:49
Speaker 1: Me, your host, Mandi B. And you already know I am with my guys.
00:00:53
Speaker 2: We are getting into all of the ignorant things that crossed our mind across the last week or so. And then up first, and this is America, Converse has apologized after facing backlash over an image from his Chuck 70 campaign featuring K-pop star Karina.
00:01:10
Speaker 1: Now, is this just another we're finding a distraction here?
00:01:13
Speaker 3: Nope.
00:01:13
Speaker 1: Or do we have a reason to be upset?
00:01:15
Speaker 3: Yep.
00:01:16
Speaker 2: Then Anthropic CEO warns that AI could take over the internet in the next six months.
00:01:20
Speaker 1: What does this mean?
00:01:22
Speaker 2: And are we really in fear of the robot takeover? Are we really a part of the problem here? And if so, are you pro-robot or not?
00:01:31
Speaker 3: Autobots.
00:01:32
Speaker 1: Then we are getting into celebrities say the darndest things.
00:01:35
Speaker 2: Chris Brown calls out Representative Vinton Jones after he apologized to black women for honoring Chris with a congressional record of recognition presented by Jasmine Crockett during their Texas stops. Y'all know I am all for Christopher Maurice Brown. So if you're ready for a bias take, you are.
00:01:53
Speaker 1: Getting it from me.
00:01:55
Speaker 2: But we're going to get into Don Lemon, who says... and questions, do black men get a second chance?
00:02:02
Speaker 3: Not really.
00:02:02
Speaker 1: Specifically here in America. I think that that's going to be an interesting conversation.
00:02:07
Speaker 2: Then Macklemore has been removed from Ed Sheeran's tour after Free Palestine comments. How far do we go in protecting our artists who are on the right side of history while also possibly trying to get money out of the pockets of men like Robert Kraft, who clearly are pro-genocide? And she could have just stayed out of that, but we're going to get into all of that.
00:02:30
Speaker 1: Nothing to do with her, but we'll get to that. I wish Pink stayed as R & B Pink.
00:02:35
Speaker 2: I don't know why she didn't left the culture, but we do not accept her at the cookout anymore. And then would you be mad if your friend played R. Kelly music around you? Mona Leo didn't seem pleased during a recent stream.
00:02:45
Speaker 1: We're getting into all the things, and we have a very special guest this week. Getting into all the things.
00:02:53
Speaker 2: So before I sit here and give y'all the niggas y'all already know that y'all hear from every week, my super producer and my co-host, we are presenting an artiste performer who is, by the time you hear this, literally starting tour. You start tour this week, goddamn, right?
00:03:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, eight days. In eight days, y'all, we.
00:03:14
Speaker 2: Are joined by the illustrious The talented Akeem Ali.
00:03:19
Speaker 3: Hello. Thank you, thank you. Yeah, give me some adjectives. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Roll it. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:03:25
Speaker 1: Roll it, roll it, roll it, roll it.
00:03:26
Speaker 4: Roll it.
00:03:26
Speaker 1: I'm really glad to have you. Thank you, thank you.
00:03:28
Speaker 2: I will say, as one of the newer artists taking over the world, I'm going to say, you have been one of the artists, after meeting you this week, that I told people, I just got to do your visualizer, and I'm like, yeah, he was in the room. Everybody knows who the fuck you are. Like, my friend who doesn't know anybody, y'all know Crystal.
00:03:46
Speaker 3: Don't know music.
00:03:48
Speaker 1: She said she knew you. My partner knows you. It was like, everybody know you. And I love that. Thank you. I love that you are reaching the people. And everyone had nothing but good things to say about you and your name. You know what's happening. You never said you knew.
00:04:03
Speaker 3: You said you met me.
00:04:03
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:04:04
Speaker 4: You never said you knew.
00:04:05
Speaker 1: I know the name.
00:04:07
Speaker 3: I didn't know you.
00:04:08
Speaker 1: First of all, can I share?
00:04:10
Speaker 3: She's not on the album.
00:04:11
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
00:04:12
Speaker 3: Oh, wait. She not on the album.
00:04:13
Speaker 1: I'm ready to be on it though.
00:04:15
Speaker 2: But let me tell you, so definitely knew who you were. That's why I didn't have to ask, who are you in the room of a lot of people, right? And when I say I became the biggest fan with your interaction that I saw in that room.
00:04:29
Speaker 1: So I'm at a room.
00:04:31
Speaker 3: What room?
00:04:31
Speaker 5: Oh.
00:04:32
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:04:33
Speaker 3: Like the first initial greeting.
00:04:35
Speaker 1: I think it was like the second greeting where everyone was like introducing themselves kind of.
00:04:40
Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
00:04:40
Speaker 5: Okay.
00:04:41
Speaker 3: Well, I guess you can't say where we were or what we were doing.
00:04:44
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no.
00:04:44
Speaker 2: I'm not going to say where we were or what we were doing, but we were in a room and there was a lot of us, a lot of our peers in the room, right?
00:04:48
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:04:49
Speaker 2: And so everyone's kind of introducing themselves, but you also see, like, I know who you are.
00:04:53
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of you.
00:04:53
Speaker 3: I like you.
00:04:54
Speaker 1: I like you. And Regine is like.
00:04:58
Speaker 3: I.
00:05:00
Speaker 1: Know you, but what do you do? What are you doing? He wouldn't say what he did.
00:05:03
Speaker 2: I was like, he was like, yeah, you probably know me. She's like, yeah, I seen you on the internet. I just saw you somewhere.
00:05:08
Speaker 1: You're somewhere. I just seen you. And you, you, you know, let her know. She was like, yes, that's you. You have the song with, with Sierra.
00:05:16
Speaker 2: And he was like, but before I think we got there, you expressed that you are an artist and you said it like, yo daddy right here, I'm right here.
00:05:26
Speaker 1: And I was like, I know that's motherfucking right. I love that. I was like, okay. I like that. Because, yeah, y'all know, if y'all know what a podcaster is, when I go into a room, I'm Joe Budden right here.
00:05:41
Speaker 3: Oprah right here.
00:05:43
Speaker 1: I'm right here, motherfucker.
00:05:45
Speaker 2: Just know that's how I look at myself. And I just love that.
00:05:49
Speaker 1: I love that. So I'm excited for you to join in on the conversation. We're going to talk about what you got going on. And thank you for making a millennial friendly TikTok dance.
00:05:58
Speaker 3: Thank you.
00:05:59
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. It wasn't, it wasn't.
00:06:01
Speaker 3: Doing too much.
00:06:04
Speaker 5: It's a dance that you don't need to like stretch before or do Pilates.
00:06:07
Speaker 3: You don't got to have like rhythm and shit.
00:06:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Me, no rhythm. Shout out to my white mama. Well, y'all, you already know we got the OG pot legend in the building, A-King.
00:06:20
Speaker 3: What it do? What's shaking? What's happening, everybody? What's good?
00:06:23
Speaker 2: By the way, if he gets a little silent midway through, it's because he has a job and will have to take a call.
00:06:27
Speaker 3: J-O-B. You're dropping a bomb on this man. Listen, listen. A.
00:06:32
Speaker 2: King, you about to sign for that bill or try to go for that bill that Bernie just dropped, huh?
00:06:38
Speaker 3: What's that?
00:06:39
Speaker 1: 32-hour work week. For the working man.
00:06:42
Speaker 3: You know, Tim Ferriss years ago dropped a book, The 4-Hour Workweek. I think we got to get to that.
00:06:48
Speaker 1: All right.
00:06:48
Speaker 3: That's for the creative, though. When you're creative, you could do a whole week's work in four hours. If you focus. I'm not talking about the doctors.
00:06:57
Speaker 1: I think we should keep 40. You think we should keep 40? Hell yeah.
00:07:00
Speaker 3: Why? Some people need to be busy? Yes, because we got so many distractions. Fair.
00:07:05
Speaker 5: We got so much shit going on now. Like, when we actually worked for a living, yes. dumb it down to 32. The internet, keep up. We need 48.
00:07:14
Speaker 3: You know what?
00:07:15
Speaker 1: We need 48.
00:07:16
Speaker 5: We need to be busy so we're not so into, like we're getting so engulfed in lights.
00:07:21
Speaker 3: So here's my question though.
00:07:22
Speaker 5: Is it better to, because that 48 means that we're going to make room for the fuckery. Should we eliminate the space and make it so that We're not making space for the fuckery.
00:07:33
Speaker 1: We're just going to be like, no, focus on the shit you got to do.
00:07:37
Speaker 3: With 48 hours, we're making room for the fuckery?
00:07:39
Speaker 5: Well, I'm saying instead of giving people like, you're saying we're distracted, right? And like people are distracted.
00:07:44
Speaker 1: With their phones.
00:07:45
Speaker 3: With their phones and all kinds of other stuff.
00:07:47
Speaker 5: If we gave them less time for the distraction, I guess, would that help or hurt the productivity? If we actually gave them a lot of time to have the fuckery that distracts them as opposed to being like, no, here's this small time.
00:07:59
Speaker 3: The more fuckery they have, the less they want to work. Ooh. You know what I'm saying?
00:08:03
Speaker 5: Because that's what got us to this point. It's like, we're in the internet. We're seeing, seeing, seeing, seeing so many options. It's like, I'm going to quit my job.
00:08:10
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? You get to.
00:08:12
Speaker 5: A point where you're like, why am I even working? I'm like, why do they have money and I don't have money? And it's like, everybody's not meant to be an entrepreneur. We do need people working.
00:08:21
Speaker 2: But it's also why there's universities now putting in influencer and YouTuber classes teaching people how to make, because there's also just a shift in careers. And you can't be mad at that because when we're, and we're going to get into talking about AI, there's jobs that are literally becoming obsolete because of the fuckery, essentially.
00:08:41
Speaker 1: Like, I ain't going to lie. I say it all the time. My space left at a terrible time because we were all coders at one point.
00:08:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're getting some trash talking on. HTML.
00:08:49
Speaker 1: Oh, no, no. HTML down, baby. I had the glitter.
00:08:52
Speaker 3: Falling from my face.
00:08:54
Speaker 1: With Thuggish Ruggish Bone playing in the background.
00:08:56
Speaker 2: I had a little gangbanger, a little girl emoji thingies before it was really emojis.
00:09:02
Speaker 1: I don't know what they were.
00:09:03
Speaker 3: But what was the affiliation? Well, you know what?
00:09:04
Speaker 2: We're not going to get into that.
00:09:06
Speaker 1: You know what I used to be back in the day. You already know. And I really wasn't.
00:09:12
Speaker 3: I can't even know what she used to say. I'm trying to figure it out. I'm sitting over here like, well. You can't tell.
00:09:16
Speaker 5: You can't tell if the hand say one thing, but the shirt say another.
00:09:20
Speaker 2: No, this was a terrible, the nails say more than, this is a terrible representation of what.
00:09:24
Speaker 3: I used to be. She was the number one employee at Pep Boys changing oil filters.
00:09:28
Speaker 1: Shut your mouth.
00:09:29
Speaker 3: She could have worn a filter hat in LA. You were?
00:09:32
Speaker 1: No, you just, back in my day, like I sold Molly for a stint. I was a drug dealer for a little short of time. You know, I've lived life.
00:09:38
Speaker 6: You know the Fed seized 17 tons of cocaine in Philadelphia?
00:09:43
Speaker 1: Oh, I wasn't pushing coke. No, I'm just saying, 17 tons.
00:09:47
Speaker 3: You saying Philly? Philly, right on the seaport.
00:09:50
Speaker 1: Is that surprising in Philly?
00:09:51
Speaker 3: Two days ago. They got my stash.
00:09:53
Speaker 1: 17 tons. I had that running through there.
00:09:55
Speaker 3: 17 tons. On the shipping containers. Not keys. Tons.
00:10:04
Speaker 2: By the way, because tons is 2,000 pounds per one ton.
00:10:08
Speaker 3: I learned that in school.
00:10:09
Speaker 1: Come on, Florida education.
00:10:10
Speaker 5: Something must be going on on the East Coast, though, because they just had 250 bricks that got seized in New York. The fuck is going on? Northeast has a lot of seizures.
00:10:20
Speaker 1: You know why? Come on, let's not act like we don't know. The ports, baby.
00:10:23
Speaker 3: The water.
00:10:25
Speaker 1: Hello, y'all know about the ports. And then we got King of Headlines.

Speaker 5: Yes. Mm-hmm.
00:10:54
Speaker 3: Right? 34,000 pounds of cocaine. Yeah.
00:10:57
Speaker 1: Powder.
00:10:58
Speaker 3: They said it's pure.
00:10:58
Speaker 5: Cut it open and dump it in the water and like have all the fish tweaking and geeking.
00:11:03
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm not going to lie. If they told us they found.
00:11:06

Speaker 3: I don't trust nobody.
00:11:16
Speaker 1: They definitely not the feds. They put it in a landfill. No. And like burn all that in there.

Speaker 3: They put it back in the streets. There's a new distributor. It's a new distributor now. Well, enlighten us. The feds. Oh, I'm sorry.
00:11:28
Speaker 1: The feds are the new distributor.

Speaker 3: Oh, no, they're the new distributor. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Who's the dude? You tell me.
00:11:40
Speaker 1: There's a new distributor. I'm like, well, you tell me. Oh, that's why they got, you know, Shaq on board with his honorary... Listen, might be. Who knows?
00:11:51
Speaker 5: Imagine getting busted by Shaq with 200,000 pounds of cocaine.
00:11:56
Speaker 1: You want to go to jail?
00:11:58
Speaker 3: You're going to do everything I tell you to do from now on. Shaq going to have you running wild missions.
00:12:03
Speaker 1: I have 55 gas chains and I'm going to call the police. We're going to take.
00:12:09
Speaker 3: Some of this.
00:12:10
Speaker 1: Because also, yes, why does he talk so low?
00:12:13
Speaker 3: Speaking of bricks.
00:12:14
Speaker 1: Right.
00:12:15
Speaker 3: Have you ever seen me at the free throw line?
00:12:17
Speaker 1: Right. That is not. Okay, that was funny.
00:12:21
Speaker 3: Don't worry, you'll have plenty of time.
00:12:23
Speaker 1: When you're going.
00:12:24
Speaker 3: I'm like, plenty of time, nigga.
00:12:25
Speaker 1: Like, shit.
00:12:26
Speaker 2: Well, Jai, did you have an ignorant thought or ignorant take or ignorant moment in the last week?
00:12:31
Speaker 1: Talk to me.
00:12:31
Speaker 3: Oh, so, yeah.
00:12:32
Speaker 1: So, earlier this week, we all went out as a family.
00:12:36
Speaker 3: We did. To support our partner in them.
00:12:39
Speaker 1: Yes, Jameela.
00:12:40
Speaker 3: Jameela Bell.
00:12:40
Speaker 1: Jameela, please.
00:12:41
Speaker 3: Jameela, please.
00:12:42
Speaker 1: Went to her screening.
00:12:43
Speaker 3: And you have a.
00:12:46
Speaker 1: What is it called? A cameo?
00:12:48
Speaker 3: A cameo. There we go.
00:12:49
Speaker 1: A cameo in the sketch series. Very good.
00:12:52
Speaker 5: And as we were leaving out, your friend Kiki was with us.
00:12:58
Speaker 1: She was. Happy birthday, Kiki.
00:13:00
Speaker 3: Happy birthday, Kiki.
00:13:01
Speaker 1: Shout out to Kiki.
00:13:02
Speaker 3: Happy birthday.
00:13:03
Speaker 1: And I forget what.
00:13:05
Speaker 3: The exact conversation was about... We were meeting. Oh, yeah, right. We were meeting her significant other. Yes.
00:13:12
Speaker 5: And you referred to this significant other as her partner. And she looked at you like you called this nigga the wildest, most disrespectful name on earth.
00:13:24
Speaker 1: She got so mad.
00:13:24
Speaker 3: She was so mad.
00:13:25
Speaker 1: Don't call that nigga no partner.
00:13:26
Speaker 3: That nigga ain't my partner.
00:13:27
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, shit.
00:13:28
Speaker 2: She was like, I'm not a gay man. You use partner if you're a gay man. And I was like, oh, well, excuse me.
00:13:35
Speaker 5: Well, when she said it, I laughed because I never really thought about it like that. Now, I know that partner is like a popular term. term to use now for significant other. People have various reasons why they don't like girlfriend or boyfriend or whatever.
00:13:47
Speaker 3: The thing is. That's fine.
00:13:48
Speaker 5: But I never thought about the fact that when you say partner, the connotation is that you're talking to a gay person and you're talking about their significant other.
00:13:59
Speaker 3: And maybe for her.
00:13:59
Speaker 1: I think there was a time, though, where that was isolated to....
00:14:07
Speaker 3: That community. I think maybe the 90s or something like that. But now.
00:14:12
Speaker 1: We didn't use water before the games.
00:14:14
Speaker 5: Not only cops and sports players use that shit.
00:14:19
Speaker 6: So even if you're not married in the construct of marriage, going to City Hall or even having an ordained minister marry you, if you live with someone in the same house over a certain amount of years, they call it domestic marriage.
00:14:32
Speaker 1: You know what I think it is?
00:14:33
Speaker 2: I think it's an exhaustion of people with these labels. I think it's a people exhausted by how labels identify who they are, who they're with, what they're doing, how they're doing it.
00:14:48
Speaker 1: And so for me, even her taking it to being like, nah, that's for the gays.
00:14:52
Speaker 2: I was just like, girl, that's your partner because he's your man, that's not your man, but it's your man.
00:14:57
Speaker 1: She literally is like, that's my man, but He's not my man, but that's my man.
00:15:00
Speaker 5: But she would have rather you said, your man would be like, well, he's not my man.
00:15:05
Speaker 1: See, that's your nigga. I'm not going to do all that. So that's your partner.
00:15:07
Speaker 3: Your nigga.
00:15:08
Speaker 1: That's your nigga. Your nigga. But see, no. That's my black and belly.
00:15:14
Speaker 2: I have been checked too many times about referring to my romantic partner is my nigga.
00:15:21
Speaker 1: I'm not, like, that is the thing.
00:15:22
Speaker 3: No, I'm saying, that's what she was.
00:15:23
Speaker 1: Because, you know, I done dated old school niggas. You know, he a little old. He don't want to be called, he's like, don't refer to me as your nigga. No, of course not. It's disrespectful. So I'm not going to say that.
00:15:32
Speaker 2: I'm also, boyfriend is also, I don't know why people don't like me.
00:15:35
Speaker 5: It's like, I don't know, because then it'd be like, you name everything and it'd be like, Oh, is she your partner?
00:15:39
Speaker 1: Stone her. Yeah.
00:15:41
Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
00:15:42
Speaker 1: Them boyfriend is too childish.
00:15:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've heard women say that where it's like, I don't have no boyfriend. I'm 57 and a half years old. I don't got no goddamn boyfriend. I'd be like, all right, fine.
00:15:53
Speaker 3: That's my man. That's what they would say.
00:15:55
Speaker 5: Well, see, back in the day, I got old aunties and shit. So, like, my old aunties, if one of the older aunties had got, like.
00:16:02
Speaker 3: A boyfriend, you know, they would just be like, oh, that's her friend.
00:16:05
Speaker 1: That's my friend. That's a little friend. And I'm like, Well, shit, if I'm cracking, if we together, I don't want to just be your friend.
00:16:12
Speaker 5: I don't walk up and call nobody nothing. I just wait until people say what they want to be.
00:16:17
Speaker 1: Ah, okay. That's fair.
00:16:19
Speaker 5: I got a bad habit of just saying their name. I don't even say this is my. I be like, this is.
00:16:25
Speaker 1: That's so proper. And that's what everybody.
00:16:27
Speaker 3: Keeps telling us.
00:16:28
Speaker 5: You can't assume who they are to me based off if I was with you.
00:16:32
Speaker 3: This is who they are. Like, hey, this is Mandy. and let it just be that.
00:16:40
Speaker 5: You can assume from there or whatever, but she is manning. She can't say she's not manning. That's the one that you can't sit your ass up and lie on. Don't call me that. Are you a witness protection nigga?
00:16:52
Speaker 6: I think that women that are still interested will push the line.
00:16:55
Speaker 3: That's your little girlfriend?
00:16:57
Speaker 1: That's your little girl?
00:17:00
Speaker 2: Can I share a toxic thing that I did do back in my heathen days? I did get flewed out by this guy. And I felt we had been dealing with each other for a while. And when I got brought around his people, his teammates and everybody, he let everybody know I was his friend.
00:17:20
Speaker 1: And so every teammate that slid in my MySpace DMs after that, I talked to them.
00:17:24
Speaker 3: Oh, that's just your friend.
00:17:25
Speaker 1: We're just friends. I completely was like, oh, well, if I'm just your friend, I'm going to talk to you. I was 19, 20. I was younger. You with me.
00:17:35
Speaker 3: I want to know something.
00:17:37
Speaker 1: No, no, it's okay.
00:17:38
Speaker 3: I want to know something. What? Did you fuck any.
00:17:41
Speaker 1: One of the teammates?
00:17:43
Speaker 5: After?
00:17:44
Speaker 1: Just one.
00:17:45
Speaker 2: The other one we ended up being friends with, but I never went and did it. But there was multiple teammates that I ended up talking to. But only one I ended up... And then he ended up seeing us texting in his phone later down the line, and I got caught.
00:17:58
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, you said I was your friend. what team what kind of team sport like football or like no I'm saying like football or basketball.
00:18:05
Speaker 3: I know and he saw you too damn I know.
00:18:08
Speaker 5: Yeah cold world cold world cold world you still fucking with him when you fucked a friend yeah yeah.
00:18:16
Speaker 3: See, so you wanted to do it anyway. You wanted to do it anyway. Because you didn't have a conversation. We weren't exclusive.
00:18:25
Speaker 1: There's no commitment.
00:18:26
Speaker 3: But you assumed because you got offended that he referred to you as.
00:18:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, he referred to me as his friend.
00:18:30
Speaker 3: So if I'm just your friend... You was like, got it, yes, now I get the license.
00:18:34
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, though, that.
00:18:35
Speaker 2: That's where, when you're introducing someone, or if you're a woman and you're with a man, how they introduce you to people sometimes matters.
00:18:43
Speaker 3: No, for sure, because even when he said that, I'm like, if you.
00:18:46
Speaker 1: I'm not that savage anymore.
00:18:48
Speaker 3: I was just sharing... Y'all, women are just... I'm going to get into it when he.
00:18:51
Speaker 1: No, you're right.
00:18:52
Speaker 3: Bro, we lose. But, like, women....
00:18:55
Speaker 6: The species of women was MAGA before MAGA.
00:18:59
Speaker 3: They're from relationships.
00:19:00
Speaker 1: I hope you got him on ice, I'm saying that. Oh yeah, the fire is coming.
00:19:05
Speaker 3: This ain't a red pill, this ain't a blue pill. My time, my time.
00:19:08
Speaker 1: Oh, that's my call.
00:19:09
Speaker 3: Gotta go.
00:19:12
Speaker 2: Akis said, hey, I am only speaking for myself as I sit with these Indian nigglets.
00:19:18
Speaker 3: But here's the thing, right?
00:19:19
Speaker 5: If this is your actual girlfriend or boyfriend, or I'll say for girlfriends, I don't think men care as much as women would necessarily.
00:19:27
Speaker 3: But if you just say.
00:19:28
Speaker 5: Like, oh, I'm introducing this girl, my girlfriend to a group of people and I just call her name. I feel like most men are going to have a conversation about that later. Why you ain't tell them I'm your girl?
00:19:38
Speaker 3: Why you just call me whoop-de-whoop-de-whoop? Why are you not just going to act like I'm not your girl?
00:19:43
Speaker 1: Oh, at 19, I wasn't mature enough to have a conversation.
00:19:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, 19, that was not going to happen.
00:19:46
Speaker 1: I wasn't mature enough back then.
00:19:48
Speaker 3: But also, it's like... what do you want?
00:19:53
Speaker 5: Like, you have to state or say certain things, like, upfront, like, you know we friends in private. Why the hell do I gotta get out in public and be like, we're not friends, we're together.
00:20:03
Speaker 3: And then it's gonna be like, you looking at me like, oh, we together?
00:20:06
Speaker 5: Because I don't know who you fucking, I don't know what you're doing behind my back, so I can't assume and make assumptions about what you have going on. It's like, and if I get out and be like, yeah, this is my girl, you're gonna be like, we're not, now, if I say, this is my friend, when we get in the car, you're gonna be like, so I'm your friend?
00:20:19
Speaker 3: When I say, this is my girl, So are we together now?
00:20:23
Speaker 1: Like, what are we doing? If the conversation hasn't been had, yes. I got my rock. I got my rock.
00:20:31
Speaker 2: If the conversation has not been had, yes. But again, there are women that lack emotional maturity, depending on age, and okay, that's when.
00:20:41
Speaker 3: We respond, nigga.
00:20:42
Speaker 5: And so you knew that you and him was just fucking? Or was he leading you to believe, like, hey?
00:20:48
Speaker 4: No, we.
00:20:49
Speaker 1: We had feelings for each other.
00:20:50
Speaker 3: Okay. But you knew for a fact y'all weren't together.
00:20:53
Speaker 4: Right.
00:20:54
Speaker 3: And did you want to be with him?
00:20:56
Speaker 1: Eh, tricky. Okay, so boom.
00:20:58
Speaker 3: Like, what the fuck?
00:20:59
Speaker 2: So my point, so him getting mad that I slid to the teammates?
00:21:03
Speaker 5: No, but you like, I don't even want to be with you, but now I'm sitting up here mad. I don't want to be with you, but I'm going to fuck your friend.
00:21:10
Speaker 1: Because you ain't saying I'm your girl. Delusion. I know, it's crazy. I was once a woman like that. I'm no longer.
00:21:17
Speaker 3: I've healed. You've healed, right.
00:21:19
Speaker 1: I've healed.
00:21:20
Speaker 3: You talked to the lady.
00:21:21
Speaker 1: I talked to the lady.
00:21:22
Speaker 2: I let men know exactly who I am, who my partners are, and if they want to sit and be a part of my program or not.
00:21:28
Speaker 1: Everything is out in the open.
00:21:29
Speaker 3: Program. Tough word. Tough word.
00:21:32
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
00:21:32
Speaker 3: You feel me?
00:21:33
Speaker 1: You feel me? Program. Come on, man.
00:21:36
Speaker 3: Program. Get it on the floor.
00:21:39
Speaker 1: Let me get a little more. And it's not a strict program. It's fairly loose. It's a program.
00:21:48
Speaker 5: Like, you just know what the fuck going on. You need to know the inner workings. Listen, this is all that this position entails.
00:21:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, hello.
00:21:55
Speaker 3: Are you capable or not of fulfilling the duties?
00:21:58
Speaker 1: Hello.
00:21:58
Speaker 2: And let me tell you, this ain't the AA program. This is the after school program.
00:22:02
Speaker 1: You having a good time over here. A lot of games. A lot of fun. Good times. Field trips and shit.
00:22:08
Speaker 3: Field trips is crazy.
00:22:11
Speaker 2: Before we get into This Is America, I do want to start off with my ignorant take.
00:22:16
Speaker 1: I've been seeing a.
00:22:17
Speaker 2: Lot of comments going against Cardi B. Cardi B, who's been seen celebrating her one-year anniversary of the Am I the Drama album and just being outside because she is A rich bitch, single, outside, doing what she want, living the life.
00:22:33
Speaker 3: No mercy.
00:22:33
Speaker 1: And being a good mama. You know, she's been having the birthdays and all that. That's great.
00:22:38
Speaker 2: She was seen dancing in a club where one of her fans behind her started slapping at her ass. And she swiped that motherfucking hand out the way. For whatever reason, comments are shaming Cardi for doing that.
00:22:54
Speaker 3: For slapping the girl's hand away?
00:22:55
Speaker 1: For slapping the girl's hand away. What are they saying? Oh, I wish I would have screenshotted. Just that, oh, she's so mean. See, she's not a girl's girl. She's literally leaning.
00:23:05
Speaker 2: Into that argument of her swiping the hand away because... who would Cardi be without us? Who would Cardi be without her fans? And I was just like, so I'm reading these comments.
00:23:14
Speaker 3: These are women?
00:23:15
Speaker 1: These are women.
00:23:15
Speaker 3: Okay.
00:23:16
Speaker 1: These are women.
00:23:17
Speaker 3: Okay.
00:23:18
Speaker 1: Oh, I know.
00:23:19
Speaker 2: And so as I'm reading these comments, I'm just thinking of the pure hypocrisy in women wanting our, you know, boundaries.
00:23:32
Speaker 1: Six feet.
00:23:33
Speaker 2: We wouldn't want a man to be slapping our ass while we're dancing with our homegirls. And I've experienced this a lot, I told y'all, especially while I've been on tour, because of my content, our fans, grabbing titties, grabbing ass almost immediately, like wanting us to bend over and it's a lot. Our meet and greets, we be having to be like, please ask first. We've had to come out and like say, hey y'all, y'all can't just, you know.
00:23:58
Speaker 3: Have your way with me. You can't just have your way with me. This bitch got on clothes.
00:24:02
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
00:24:03
Speaker 3: That type of attitude.
00:24:05
Speaker 2: And so I just want women and yes, listen, This has nothing to do with being male-centered at all, but it's about us as women wanting the same respect from other women as we expect men to give us. Like, let's not go to a club, let's not see a pretty girl and just think that we have the right or wherewithal to touch them inappropriately touch their breasts touch their ass hug them too long grind our coochies like we scissoring it is unacceptable and i think as women we need to start looking at other women like if this was a if this was a man would i want him to touch me this way right nine times out of ten it's gonna be no unless it's a man you know that you like that you throw it over no stranger man can touch you like that so i want you to think of that when you hopping in those comments And you're sitting here thinking that Cardi was wrong for swiping an unsolicited hand of a woman away from her ass. No woman deserves to be touched inappropriately anywhere. Don't care where it's at. Mind you, I'm a respectful woman at the goddamn strip club. I'd be asking if I could put that one between a crack.
00:25:09
Speaker 3: No means no, though.
00:25:11
Speaker 1: And no means no.
00:25:12
Speaker 2: And if you've already violated my right to tell you no because you already touching me, Next thing is for.
00:25:19
Speaker 1: Me to swipe your ass away from you.
00:25:20
Speaker 3: Of course.
00:25:21
Speaker 1: And look at you like, bitch, do it again. My body, my choice goes beyond abortion. Hello.
00:25:25
Speaker 5: Like, people still have autonomy just because you have this.
00:25:29
Speaker 3: But, you know, we talk about this nowadays. These parasocial relationships.
00:25:32
Speaker 1: Relationships.
00:25:33
Speaker 5: With like, okay, they've listened to your podcast a million times. They feel like y'all are homegirls and they can just act like that.
00:25:39
Speaker 1: And it's like, bro, don't touch me.
00:25:41
Speaker 4: No.
00:25:41
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what.
00:25:43
Speaker 1: Do you experience this?
00:25:44
Speaker 3: If motherfuckers had 48 hours....
00:25:49
Speaker 5: We have less time to be in the club.
00:25:52
Speaker 1: Wait a second. You want us to have less time? Is that girl at work?
00:25:55
Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
00:25:55
Speaker 1: Here we go. You got to do that. I mean, it makes sense.
00:25:59
Speaker 3: No.
00:25:59
Speaker 1: So, wait. You want just people to work all the time?
00:26:03
Speaker 4: No.
00:26:04
Speaker 3: Okay. I don't want you to work all the time.
00:26:06
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:26:06
Speaker 5: But I feel like dumb in the work week down does not help us. If that girl had to go to work, she probably wouldn't even been in there.
00:26:12
Speaker 1: I'm not playing with you. I'm not playing with you.
00:26:15
Speaker 5: You wouldn't even see no hand. But it's like, no, like, it's no. Like, I don't want you touching me there. I don't want, like, certain stuff going on. Like, for a woman, it's like, she could be on her cycle.
00:26:26
Speaker 3: It's like, motherfucker, move.
00:26:28
Speaker 1: Have you experienced that in meet and greets? Yeah. Yeah? How do you? I had a woman lick my fucking face one time.
00:26:35
Speaker 5: Literally hug me and was just like, her tongue just went, and I was just like, And her husband was like, oh, no, no, she good. And I was like, her husband was like, she good? I ain't gonna say it was her husband, it was her nigga.
00:26:48
Speaker 3: He was like, ah, she good.
00:26:49
Speaker 1: And I was like, what are you doing? She licked your face?
00:26:52
Speaker 7: Oh, no, no, no.
00:26:52
Speaker 1: That's like as violating as someone spitting on you. Like, that's violating.
00:26:58
Speaker 5: I was like, and so my thing is, too, because I'm not like a super, I'm not mean at all, but I do have this thing where, like, I'm working on the thin line between boundary and people being like, just like that, right? Like swiping a hand back. And it's like, that's a boundary. Like, I don't want you touching my ass. Yeah, I used to dance a strip. Like, I don't want you touching it. I don't want anybody touching it no more. Like, I'm not that person no more. I don't feel comfortable doing it. But it's like, when you give that energy, people think that they can do what they want to do. And it's like, he'll understand.
00:27:32
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, bitch.
00:27:34
Speaker 1: I mean, woman, I don't want you like, You know what I'm saying?
00:27:38
Speaker 3: Wow.
00:27:38
Speaker 1: And now her partner like, yeah, we rock like that or whatever.
00:27:42
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:27:42
Speaker 1: Wow. I was just like, I thought you wanted to take a picture. I say that all the time though too.
00:27:48
Speaker 2: And we talk about it like how sometimes if it's like just a lot of people, even if you don't have a good day, you kind of can't be mean though. And like there's a way that it's hard to like tell somebody your boundary while not seeming mean.
00:27:59
Speaker 5: I streamed somebody do this shit one time and I was like, I remember I was at a show doing something. And these girls were like, I think he might've invited me. Mike Ellis invited me. He was doing a comedy show and he was like, man, you dope.
00:28:10
Speaker 1: You know, I want you to come.
00:28:11
Speaker 3: He was in Atlanta. He was in Atlanta. He was like, come and, you know, perform the song and blah, blah, blah. And I did it.
00:28:16
Speaker 5: And I got off stage and we was all backstage and these two girls asked Mike for a picture.
00:28:20
Speaker 1: He was like, no.
00:28:21
Speaker 3: And they was like, damn.
00:28:22
Speaker 5: And I thought he was playing. And he just walked off. And I was like, oh, he really not finna take the fucking picture.
00:28:26
Speaker 3: And I was at a show that I was hosting not too long ago.
00:28:30
Speaker 5: And this one girl, she took a picture. Cause I was sitting on the edge of the stage and letting people come up and just take the picture.
00:28:34
Speaker 3: Right. She take a picture and she was.
00:28:36
Speaker 1: Like, I ain't like it. Can I get another one?
00:28:38
Speaker 5: And I'm like, okay. And then they'll come back and be like, that one was ugly. I'm like, well, the camera is only showing you who you are.
00:28:42
Speaker 3: So I'm like, but I took a picture anyway.
00:28:45
Speaker 1: I took a picture.
00:28:46
Speaker 5: And so she didn't got like three pictures at this point. Everybody else coming up, get one picture and they walk off.
00:28:50
Speaker 3: They understand. We get outside in the parking lot. Can I have another picture? I was like, no. I was like, I'm tired. And y'all don't understand that.
00:28:59
Speaker 5: I do get overwhelmed, but I can't give that to y'all because you start feeling that energy. And I'm like, I'm very understanding. But I was like, no, you literally just got three pictures when we was inside.
00:29:07
Speaker 3: She was like, you right, you right. She was like, but you showed up. I was like.
00:29:13
Speaker 5: Stone her literally like I'm like you know how Mr.
00:29:18
Speaker 7: Did see yeah yeah yeah listen and when I tell you what's what's funny about it doesn't matter how you even say no I will say that's the number one thing uh I just we just had to give advice for people in their 30s and I said by 30 you should know how to receive no yes There's too many people that.
00:29:36
Speaker 1: Take no insulting, or no is disrespect, or no is offensive.
00:29:40
Speaker 2: And it's just like, you want to be able to say no to.
00:29:42
Speaker 3: Somebody, right?
00:29:42
Speaker 5: I feel like the approach does matter. Because I had to tell her, I didn't say it like that. When she asked to take the picture, I was like, no, I'm kind of tired. Like, I don't feel like it.
00:29:50
Speaker 3: She was like, because they'll ask you, they'll be like, you feel like taking another picture?
00:29:53
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm kind of tired.
00:29:54
Speaker 3: I ain't going to lie.
00:29:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, but for someone who, like, lacks emotional intelligence, and now that no is a rejection, like, sometimes it doesn't matter how.
00:30:01
Speaker 3: You say it.
00:30:01
Speaker 1: Yes, you could say it rude as fuck. Like, nah, motherfucker. Right.
00:30:05
Speaker 2: You could say it like that, but for someone who doesn't know how to receive no, they could still take it.
00:30:08
Speaker 5: I thought Mike was tripping that time he didn't take that picture, but I was like, this nigga, I was like, I get it.
00:30:12
Speaker 1: This nigga is tired. And also, I think he's been famous for as long as I've been alive. Yeah, you should have been that picture.
00:30:18
Speaker 3: You should have been that picture.
00:30:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:30:22
Speaker 3: I done put out a million movies.
00:30:23
Speaker 1: Step aside the TV again.
00:30:24
Speaker 3: Right.
00:30:25
Speaker 1: Something, shit.
00:30:26
Speaker 5: Well, Anthony Mackie is notorious for that, and he actually gets a bad rap for that. People talk shit about Anthony Mackie. He's still Captain America, though.
00:30:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know.
00:30:39
Speaker 2: For me, it's one of those things that is one of the best experiences, I think. in being like, especially overseas, and people wanting to take a picture and wanting to like, just, hey, I listen.
00:30:51
Speaker 1: To you every week. Like, I'm never gonna, I don't think I'll ever tell someone no.
00:30:56
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm lying.
00:30:57
Speaker 1: I'm lying. I did say no at Hedo. Because, bro, I'm naked. Yeah, you can't do that.
00:31:02
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:31:03
Speaker 1: At the new beach in a.
00:31:04
Speaker 2: Naked resort, bro, you can't tell me you're just gonna get me shoulders up.
00:31:07
Speaker 1: I'm not taking a picture naked. when I ain't got no clothes on. That's smart, though.
00:31:12
Speaker 3: That is smart.
00:31:13
Speaker 1: That's smart.
00:31:14
Speaker 3: Like, we all out here naked. Everybody naked.
00:31:17
Speaker 1: It ain't just you, it's me, too. So, look. My mother be like, can I get a picture? Yeah, you know. This me and Mandy right here. I just be doing my thing. We all that, man. We was on vacation somewhere crazy.
00:31:29
Speaker 3: That's crazy. They be the whole OnlyFans. You see?
00:31:33
Speaker 1: Off of one photo.
00:31:34
Speaker 2: I don't need the circumference of my areolas out in the world like that.
00:31:38
Speaker 1: Do not. That's fair. You feel me?
00:31:39
Speaker 2: All right, well, let's get into This Is America. All right, so Converse has apologized after facing backlash over the image.
00:31:49
Speaker 1: Now, you put this in the chat, or A. King put this in the chat? I put this in the chat. You put this in the chat. Yeah, I put this in the chat.
00:31:53
Speaker 2: You want to talk about what the backlash has came. Basically, it is a K-pop star.
00:31:58
Speaker 1: The image was cropped later.
00:32:00
Speaker 3: I have seen the full image. Yeah, there's a video.
00:32:02
Speaker 5: The image that's going around that people are mad about is a cropped screenshot from the video, from the full ad.
00:32:07
Speaker 1: The full video, from the full ad.
00:32:08
Speaker 2: If you want to pull it up just so that we can reference it as well. If you can make that a little bigger. Now, there were multiple videos.
00:32:15
Speaker 5: Was it a video and this was just a picture from it?
00:32:17
Speaker 3: Yes.
00:32:18
Speaker 5: It's a video ad and this is a screenshot from the video. I think the video ends like this.
00:32:23
Speaker 2: Now, if you can, Dee, can you search full image Converse ad? You'll be able to see the full image of her. I do also want to add that what I saw was Converse's create an AI apology of this ad.
00:32:37
Speaker 1: Did you see that?
00:32:38
Speaker 3: I heard the apology. I didn't realize it was an AI apology.
00:32:41
Speaker 1: It's a white woman. No way it's a real woman.
00:32:42
Speaker 2: So if you look up full image, that's the reimagined image. Look up a full body image.
00:32:51
Speaker 5: Because there's also, well, I want to say, these people are very smart, highly intelligent.
00:33:00
Speaker 1: Who's the these people?
00:33:02
Speaker 5: These people behind some of these things, and I'm going to tell you what I've learned for marketing, right? If you are a marketer, and that does not, and so this, in my opinion, is wrong because you know what the fuck going on. Like, you know what's going on, right? There's certain things that you know will trigger people.
00:33:26
Speaker 3: Ah.
00:33:27
Speaker 5: There are certain things, and it's not about whether it's right, wrong, good, bad. It's about whether it gets attention, right?
00:33:34
Speaker 3: And so if you care enough about it, like, let's just say black people aren't my target audience, right? Now, this is marketing. Let's take feelings out of it.
00:33:42
Speaker 5: Let's take everything, strip everything else away from it, like how you feel about it, because we don't feel good about this, and we know that it's some bullshit, right?
00:33:50
Speaker 3: And I can't speak for y'all.
00:33:51
Speaker 1: I can't speak for y'all.
00:33:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll get to it.
00:33:53
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:33:54
Speaker 3: It's bullshit, right? But.
00:33:56
Speaker 5: You are able to control people who are reactive. Once I get you to a reactive state and evoke emotion, I can control you and I can push.
00:34:04
Speaker 3: A certain narrative, right? So let me just say this too, right? Okay, okay.
00:34:08
Speaker 5: I have literally, so I'm going on tour, and I have literally sold tickets just because I've managed to make certain people reactive.
00:34:15
Speaker 1: You've evoked emotion?
00:34:16
Speaker 5: You may not have known that I was going on tour, but I pissed this group of people off over here so bad that they're posting about it, talking about it, and it makes you go and say.
00:34:23
Speaker 1: What's going on over there in their yard?
00:34:25
Speaker 3: I'm going to go see. Oh, I like him.
00:34:27
Speaker 1: He going on tour? I'm going to go. You know what I'm saying?
00:34:29
Speaker 5: And so now I'm going to go buy a ticket to the tour. I didn't know that's what the fuck they was mad about, but he ain't never did nothing to me.
00:34:34
Speaker 3: So boom.
00:34:34
Speaker 1: All right.
00:34:35
Speaker 3: So all of the people that I am marketing to, they see y'all over here so riled up about it.
00:34:40
Speaker 1: They like, oh, Converse?
00:34:42
Speaker 5: Well, I ain't have shit to do with slavery. I still buy a pair of Converse. I ain't have nothing to do with the Klan. I'll still get some.
00:34:48
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? And so it's like, I didn't have the reach.
00:34:52
Speaker 5: Well, I ain't going to say I didn't have the reach, but I wasn't hitting certain markets or certain people wasn't seeing it because of how.
00:34:56
Speaker 3: The algorithm and how shit is set up. So if I can spark a fire over here and get all of these black people, we all got one white friend to lease. Did you see this Converse ad? Now your white friend is like, yeah.
00:35:06
Speaker 1: I'm still going to buy some Converse.
00:35:08
Speaker 5: And I love you as a black girl or as a black man. I still love you, but Converse ain't never did nothing to me. Converse ain't never did nothing to me.
00:35:16
Speaker 3: And so now it's just like, yeah, we can issue an apology, but what y'all going to do, sue us?
00:35:23
Speaker 5: So we didn't per se do anything wrong. And so there's nothing that can say like we did something wrong, but we knew what the fuck we were doing. We knew it would per se be insensitive, right? We probably didn't run this by any of the black people we got on our team and in our marketing department, right? And we just kind of like put this ad out there knowing that it would spark that. And so now it's the talk of the town.
00:35:47
Speaker 1: So what you believe this was intentional? That shit always be intentional like that.
00:35:51
Speaker 5: I do stuff knowing for a fact that it's going to make somebody say something sometimes. Like, you don't know everything. Like, you'd be like, okay, I didn't intend for that to happen. But sometimes you're like, I'm going to say or do this, and it's going to spark something. Somebody is going to say something. Some group of people is going to be like something, and it's going to evoke some type of emotion, and boom, I got y'all.
00:36:14
Speaker 3: Because now once you're reactive, and guess what? I'm going to tell you what's going to happen. Watch this. Bear with me. You remember when H & M had that ad about the coolest monkey?
00:36:23
Speaker 1: Were you thinking about that just then? Excuse me?
00:36:25
Speaker 3: Were you thinking about that just then? Yeah, that.
00:36:27
Speaker 1: I'm saying, were you thinking about that just then? Well, to me, that was more intentional than this.
00:36:31
Speaker 3: Okay, look, but were you thinking about that when we brought this up?
00:36:34
Speaker 1: Of course.
00:36:35
Speaker 3: You was thinking about that H & M coolest monkey in the jungle ad?
00:36:38
Speaker 1: I feel like that was more intentional. I feel like this.
00:36:40
Speaker 3: Were you thinking about that?
00:36:41
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
00:36:42
Speaker 5: I don't feel like this was the same.
00:36:44
Speaker 3: No, you weren't thinking about it.
00:36:45
Speaker 2: I think this was more intentional. Is the dress blue or is it gold? Like, to me, I think that I actually see how this could have been an oversight. When I first saw the ad, I did.
00:36:55
Speaker 1: See the Klan hood and a tree.
00:36:58
Speaker 3: Were you thinking about George Floyd? No.
00:37:00
Speaker 1: Okay, nah.
00:37:01
Speaker 3: You weren't thinking about Trayvon Martin? No.
00:37:03
Speaker 1: When I saw this ad.
00:37:04
Speaker 3: Okay, so watch this. This is how this shit works, right? And this is what I say. 48-hour work week.
00:37:10
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:37:11
Speaker 3: Okay. 48-hour work week.
00:37:12
Speaker 5: Because they know in the next week and a half, None of this. This is not going to matter at all.
00:37:18
Speaker 3: It's so much. Your brain is being flooded with so fucking much. We're upset right now.
00:37:21
Speaker 5: And for this next week and a half, two weeks, they got everybody by the nuts where they want them. But it's going to be a more pressing issue, right? Guess what you're not thinking about right now? Macklemore and the Free Palestine comment, right?
00:37:35
Speaker 1: Oh no, we gonna get to that too.
00:37:36
Speaker 5: But I'm just saying, it's pressing issues and it's like shit that's going on constantly, constantly, constantly.
00:37:41
Speaker 1: And there's so much information to try to internalize.
00:37:45
Speaker 2: Speaking of marketing... You're an artist that does brand deals. As an artist, we actually haven't heard from her. Unfortunately, I don't think she had anything to do with the creative here.
00:37:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably not. Brand deals, you say? Brand deals?
00:37:58
Speaker 2: How would you respond as an artist who ends up being a part of a marketing tactic to get people to talk about something?
00:38:07
Speaker 3: And it goes left?
00:38:08
Speaker 1: And it goes left. Well, so the thing is.
00:38:11
Speaker 5: I would have to be in a position because when you're in, most of the times, or sometimes, depending on what brands you're working with, what happens is they send over approved images.
00:38:19
Speaker 3: And so if I'm looking at this, now maybe I'm looking at it.
00:38:23
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:38:25
Speaker 3: So she don't know. She don't know.
00:38:27
Speaker 1: She does not know. She might not know that she's young.
00:38:30
Speaker 3: She's not American.
00:38:30
Speaker 1: She don't have to subscribe to none of this shit.
00:38:32
Speaker 3: Right? And then it's like, you're a teenager, you're a kid.
00:38:35
Speaker 1: You really don't know.
00:38:36
Speaker 5: You don't know none of this shit, right? And so they just set her up for the wham bam. And like, Let's just, you know, they'll say she's innocent. She doesn't know. Now, if it was a white girl, if it was a white girl who raised a hill, now, if they put a black girl in there, like, we really finna cut a, like, a black teenage girl who's just, like, maybe raising around white kids, suburban black girl.
00:38:55
Speaker 1: Like, she don't know.
00:38:56
Speaker 3: And it's like, why the fuck do y'all do that to us? Or why, like, but see, it's a.
00:38:59
Speaker 1: You believe this was intentional. Do you stop buying Converse?
00:39:02
Speaker 4: Um.
00:39:04
Speaker 1: Well.
00:39:05
Speaker 3: Well. I don't have to support y'all going forward.
00:39:08
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:39:09
Speaker 3: Right.
00:39:09
Speaker 1: But you're not throwing your conversation away. So it's like, okay, do I stop buying Nikes in general? Yeah.
00:39:13
Speaker 3: Nikes owns Converse. Yeah. Are you upset enough to not buy Jordans anymore? To not buy?
00:39:20
Speaker 1: Right.
00:39:20
Speaker 3: No more Air Maxes.
00:39:21
Speaker 1: No more Air Force Ones. Get down into it, right? Get into it. Damn, I like these. And so like, yeah, don't buy no more running shoes. Yeah, everybody doing the.
00:39:27
Speaker 3: Running clothes now, right?
00:39:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, take your shoes off. You know what I'm saying?
00:39:31
Speaker 3: Like, take them off. I mean, to be fair, I shouldn't be wearing these because.
00:39:35
Speaker 1: Gucci did the.
00:39:36
Speaker 3: The monkey.
00:39:37
Speaker 1: They did the face.
00:39:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, take them off.
00:39:39
Speaker 5: Like, let's... In that case, let's be butt-nacky. Everybody is doing everything. Like, walk around this bitch in the beginning. God created it.
00:39:49
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
00:39:50
Speaker 3: Digging balls and pussy and so.
00:39:52
Speaker 2: I forgot Nike owned commerce yeah like stop buying all that shit if that's the case so I can't say that I'm so infuriated that I'm gonna like stop all the way around because it's just like you've incorporated these things.
00:40:05
Speaker 5: Have your fucking wardrobes these shoes these clothes these people and so like I tell people like I'm the type of nigga like, I'm a plain Jane nigga. All that design and that shit don't impress me, so I don't even go out and spend my money on a lot of that shit. You know what I'm saying? But I'm not upset enough to the point where I have to go home and burn everything in my closet and do all of that.
00:40:25
Speaker 3: Don't be fake mad and fake woke about it. If you want that nigga to go inside of there- Thank you.
00:40:29
Speaker 1: I be talking about the fake mad.
00:40:31
Speaker 3: Say your piece. Like, hey, they should do better. This should not be a thing anymore.
00:40:36
Speaker 5: And this is why we need more black people in the marketing department.
00:40:40
Speaker 3: With 48 hours a week.
00:40:43
Speaker 5: With 48 fucking hours a week. Yeah, because it's employment opportunities for us. And we need somebody who speaks up and be like, hey, we need marketing analysts who sit and study shit that is going to be offensive to people. Like, hey, Maybe we should cut this triangle out or just move her back and have the skirt sitting way, way back out of that silhouette where the star spikes up on the skirt. Let's just move her to the side.
00:41:08
Speaker 1: No, this sounds good. This sounds good. And it's how I feel as a podcaster.
00:41:12
Speaker 2: And I try to let everyone know who decides to get in front of a mic.
00:41:16
Speaker 1: You could be very sound and be very sane. Somebody... is going to be.
00:41:21
Speaker 2: Offended with what you said or your opinion. So I wouldn't even have the microscope of having anyone in to be like, okay, this is gonna offend somebody, let's adjust here. You as a person will always offend somebody. Not intentionally, of course, but always. Bro, when we get into the comments around the Macklemore thing and all of that, Me saying free Palestine shouldn't offend you as an Israeli.
00:41:49
Speaker 3: I want these Palestinians. That's a whole other politic. But we'll get into that. But that's what I'm saying. But there was one dude.
00:41:54
Speaker 1: Bro, me saying I like waffles. Niggas be like, so you hate pancakes?
00:41:59
Speaker 3: French toast gang.
00:42:00
Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
00:42:02
Speaker 6: But look, you know, Akeem said something about the people who are in position, right?
00:42:06
Speaker 3: I saw a guy in the car. I forget his name. I should have screenshot.
00:42:09
Speaker 6: He was a former creative director for one of the big. brands and he said currently there's probably three people of color who hold.
00:42:16
Speaker 3: That position amongst the big uh.
00:42:19
Speaker 6: Outlets so his his emphasis with it there isn't there it's important to have representation of us in the rooms so that wouldn't even be a conversation it's like oh what we doing and so and now in these rooms they just doing whatever they.
00:42:33
Speaker 5: Want and we don't want to put y'all in a funky ass position to say you gotta hire me because i'm black it would just behoove you.
00:42:40
Speaker 3: We can't tell you who the fuck to hire at your company.
00:42:42
Speaker 1: But it's smart.
00:42:43
Speaker 3: To have those people on deck because you can, because you're selling the dope.
00:42:47
Speaker 5: Who you selling the quote unquote dope? So shit like this wouldn't be a thing unless, unless.
00:42:52
Speaker 1: You did it on purpose.
00:42:54
Speaker 3: You purposely put it out of your way. Unfortunately, hold on.
00:42:58
Speaker 1: But then, here we go.
00:42:59
Speaker 2: Then you get down that little rabbit hole. Then you have the all-skim folk and Kim folk. What if it's a Van Jones that gets hired? What if it's like a Clarence Thomas?
00:43:09
Speaker 3: Like, what if.
00:43:10
Speaker 1: Ooh, I'm about to say. Like, what if it's like.
00:43:12
Speaker 3: Any representation in the room?
00:43:14
Speaker 2: There's a lot of conservative left that might not feel like... And if they're getting a check, there's a price. We say everybody got a price. There's a lot of people who may not want to talk up or speak up against anything, especially for us.
00:43:24
Speaker 1: So we know that. It's safe to say the creative director... So then do we want someone woke? And then we get into that lane. Is it the wokeness that needs to be in the room?
00:43:30
Speaker 3: Not the wokeness. It's just culturally aware.
00:43:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, but y'all want to take Rachel Dolezal out the goddamn thing.
00:43:35
Speaker 3: Who said that? I'm just saying. I stand with Rachel.
00:43:38
Speaker 5: Another thing with this, and even though it's sparking, it's flustering up the black community and sparking frustration, we may not be the target audience for this. We want y'all to talk about it because, watch this, everybody knows we control culture.
00:43:57
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:43:58
Speaker 3: Yes, sir. But when it comes to numbers, we are the minority.
00:44:02
Speaker 1: Always. Okay. But the black dollar is strong. Yes, it is strong.
00:44:06
Speaker 3: But we control culture and we say what's cool and what's not. Yeah, nobody can make it cool but us. White people control numbers. And guess what?
00:44:13
Speaker 5: If this were, was indeed what Converse was intended to do, like that Korean girl or those Asian kids, they don't know about that. or care about it enough to say, hey, Ku Klux Klan, whatever, whatever, I like Converse. And I see all these black people getting mad about it, but I didn't even know Converse was dropping.
00:44:31
Speaker 1: I'm going to go click.
00:44:33
Speaker 3: We marketing to Hong Kong right now.
00:44:35
Speaker 5: We marketing to the Philippines. We marketing to fucking like China, Japan. That's who we trying to get. We'd have had America in a chokehold for a.
00:44:43
Speaker 3: Billion fucking years.
00:44:44
Speaker 5: We didn't pimp this market out. Right now, we need kids in Thailand to subscribe to this And because they didn't have to go through the same shit that black people went through, they don't care about them struggles.
00:44:54
Speaker 3: Or they don't care about X, Y, Z.
00:44:55
Speaker 1: Well, I hope we're able to get culture. Let's get into some robot talk.
00:44:59
Speaker 3: Let's get into some robots. Let's get into some robots.
00:45:01
Speaker 1: Let's have some fun here. Let's have some fun, guys.
00:45:04
Speaker 2: Anthropic CEO Dario Amadi. What the fuck is he?
00:45:09
Speaker 1: What name is that? I ain't seen that last name before.
00:45:11
Speaker 2: Is warning that AI agents could become capable of literally taking over the internet within the next six to 12 months. Anthropic is the AI research company behind the Claude chatbot. Now, Claude, they keep telling me to break up with my husband, ChatGPT, for Claude.
00:45:29
Speaker 1: But I just got to learn him. Y'all got to slow down. Mama old. The technology is a lot. I can't keep learning all these.
00:45:35
Speaker 2: But in an essay, he proposed a three-step plan that includes giving independent evaluators employee-level access to verify safety practices, establish shared standards among AI companies, and he clarified that there should be some level of pacing. But basically, he's saying AI is growing. at a goddamn speed that he feels like could end up crumbling the entire internet. Mind you, he's the creator of it, and he's telling.
00:46:02
Speaker 3: Us what I like.
00:46:03
Speaker 6: But they act like AI is acting independently of itself.
00:46:07
Speaker 3: Do it. Sometimes it is. Wait, then do what?
00:46:09
Speaker 1: What are we doing?
00:46:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, get rid of all. No.
00:46:12
Speaker 1: Get rid of what?
00:46:13
Speaker 3: Sink us right into that motherfucking hole.
00:46:15
Speaker 1: Oh.
00:46:16
Speaker 3: Sink it. Because I'm going to tell you something. It's here, and it's not going to stop. No, it's not.
00:46:21
Speaker 5: Once we got a taste of what it's like on top of that mountain, We not finna go back to like, you know what I'm saying, elbow grease, like hand and nothing.
00:46:29
Speaker 3: We don't want to work this hard. We want so much convenience. We want so much.
00:46:32
Speaker 1: We do like convenience. Yeah, do it.
00:46:35
Speaker 5: And when we sink into that fucking hole, because we're not going to understand until there are consequences.
00:46:38
Speaker 3: Yeah. Some people you can't sit up.
00:46:40
Speaker 5: Like you said, we don't have the emotional maturity or the mental capacity sometimes to understand, hey guys, this.
00:46:45
Speaker 1: Is ruining us.
00:46:46
Speaker 3: This is such and such. Like notice, notice, notice like how we can sit here and have a conversation and don't have to pull out phones and just be. Oh, yeah. You understand?
00:46:54
Speaker 5: Like, this is a currency, right? But what are you doing when you're not, you know what I'm saying, you're sitting up being consumed? Now we get sunken into a fucking hole, and it's like, the government should do something. Somebody should do it. No, you had the fucking chance.
00:47:06
Speaker 1: You know how to self-regulate. You know how to like.
00:47:08
Speaker 2: The youth has sunk into the hole because they're removing AI. I think in the state of New York, they just did it, right?
00:47:13
Speaker 3: K-8? Yeah.
00:47:15
Speaker 2: There's certain states now getting to where... they see, like, the kids can't literally think without.
00:47:20
Speaker 3: Typing in what is my thought.
00:47:23
Speaker 1: And I mean, I've been talking to my homegirls about it.
00:47:25
Speaker 2: They use Chet and Claude to respond to niggas they dating.
00:47:30
Speaker 1: I'm like, you don't know how to have a conversation with a.
00:47:32
Speaker 6: My homegirl sent me a screenshot of an interaction she has with a dude, and she said, look at this bullshit.
00:47:38
Speaker 5: And I'm reading it, and I'm like, dude didn't even edit nothing. And I'm like, what was the.
00:47:43
Speaker 6: Original copy paste? ChatDBT to spit out. And I'm like, why are we doing that?
00:47:48
Speaker 1: I tell my friends all the time.
00:47:50
Speaker 2: Well, to be fair, my one homegirl said she does it to tone down because she be sounding like a Florida bitch. She's like, I just want to sound nicer. So I put in my thoughts and tell them to make it nicer.
00:48:01
Speaker 5: Motherfucker, when I meet you and you can't pull your phone out of the car, I'm going to realize you didn't get this motherfucker.
00:48:07
Speaker 3: How do I tell this nigga his breath funky?
00:48:08
Speaker 1: You know what?
00:48:10
Speaker 3: It's going to be frequent bathroom breaks. I got to go to the bathroom. Oh, not the uncontrolled bladder. You're going to go to the prompt.
00:48:16
Speaker 5: Well, the thing that's getting crazy with these companies is that we're seeing more and more employees, which it pisses me off every time I see one, but they're quitting Anthropic and these open AI and these companies.
00:48:26
Speaker 1: And going to start their own.
00:48:27
Speaker 3: No, no, no.
00:48:28
Speaker 5: But then they're becoming whistleblowers. Oh, everything back here is so dangerous. They're doing this and they're doing that. And I'm like, well, nigga, you was working.
00:48:34
Speaker 3: There for a year and a half.
00:48:35
Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
00:48:36
Speaker 1: Starting your own company that's going to.
00:48:38
Speaker 2: That's probably going to be the same because you think you can do it.
00:48:41
Speaker 5: And the other problem is that outside of being wanting convenience over safety and everything else, this has become, to your last point about marketing to Hong Kong and Asian other places, we're now at a place, it's like how space was in the 60s or the 50s.
00:48:58
Speaker 1: There's a race now. Who can get it first?
00:49:00
Speaker 5: And America is racing China because China's on the same shit. And so now you got these companies who are playing war games at a high level because they don't want a Chinese company to master this shit first. We'd rather be the controller of the robots that come kill the world as opposed to our enemies, our ops, having control of the robots.
00:49:20
Speaker 1: That kill the world.
00:49:21
Speaker 3: And at the end of the day, it's not gonna benefit nobody.
00:49:23
Speaker 2: You feel like, is this not, and we were all alive during this moment. is this not just fear-mongering on the scale of a Y2K?
00:49:31
Speaker 3: Could be.
00:49:31
Speaker 2: Because we didn't understand the internet in the way that it is now, right? And so Y2K, we thought everything was going to crash because, oh my God, the Google, the Gmail, the internet is massive.
00:49:41
Speaker 1: Is this not just that?
00:49:41
Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you what all of this shit is a ploy for.
00:49:44
Speaker 1: You think there's a hole, though? You think we're going to crash?
00:49:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, fuck yeah. Oh, it's going to happen.
00:49:47
Speaker 5: It's going to be an AI crash. Because there wasn't a Y2K crash. The thing is, it's not meant or set up to be.
00:49:54
Speaker 3: Like so... Sex school? No, the fucking word.
00:50:00
Speaker 5: What does it mean? It's not set up to be so evident.
00:50:05
Speaker 3: Oh, oh. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:50:08
Speaker 1: Like right in your face.
00:50:09
Speaker 3: It's supposed to look like, oh, come on now. You know, these devices are helping you. But if somebody's paying attention and saying like, and sat back over a span of time, they'll be like, well, okay.
00:50:18
Speaker 5: I'm paying attention to this. But now I'm looking how this is linked to that. And so I think this whole shit is set up for us to eventually be.
00:50:27
Speaker 3: Labor, sex, entertainment slaves. Oh.
00:50:32
Speaker 5: Because we're so fucking dull and numbskulled up here. We don't have any, not like, once we die off, the people who have the common sense, that's.
00:50:39
Speaker 1: Why the kids are like, they can't fucking think. They can't fucking read.
00:50:42
Speaker 3: Give us 20 years. Once y'all get out of.
00:50:44
Speaker 1: Here too old to say something, give us 40 years, 50 years max.
00:50:47
Speaker 5: Once y'all gone, we got a new generation of motherfuckers that don't know nothing about nothing.
00:50:51
Speaker 1: They're removing history. They're changing history. We remove shit.
00:50:55
Speaker 3: Y'all don't know shit, but what we give y'all, all of the food that you're eating, all processed shit, the people, the last people who had the.
00:51:01
Speaker 1: Good portions of... It's gone. It's gone.
00:51:04
Speaker 5: And so then we tell you what to do. We stripped you of everything and give you the shit that we want you to have. The food doesn't have any nutritional value.
00:51:12
Speaker 3: Your hormones are all fucked up. If we put this in front of your face, it triggers this. Sex slave.
00:51:16
Speaker 5: If we put this in front of your face, it triggers labor slave. If we put this in front of your entertainment, do what the fuck I.
00:51:22
Speaker 1: Tell you to do.
00:51:23
Speaker 3: This is literally like leading us into that.
00:51:27
Speaker 1: The food controls everything.
00:51:29
Speaker 3: The nourishment and like certain foods are like brain foods.
00:51:32
Speaker 5: Certain foods are heart foods. All of that shit is gone. It's a recall on everything. They take all the fucking seeds. We don't have seeds for natural foods anymore.
00:51:40
Speaker 1: You can't find seeds.
00:51:41
Speaker 5: You can't grow your own food. Take the fucking seeds out. They can't reproduce it themselves. We get them what we want to get them. We start putting shit into it that affects X, Y, Z. Like people start having manic episodes. And ain't nobody going to say they're like, hey, we're putting this shit in here to make these people like... We're putting shit in the drugs they smoking. We're putting shit in the weed.
00:51:57
Speaker 3: Nobody even tells you, right? Like, watch this, watch this.
00:52:00
Speaker 1: Nobody even tells you that.
00:52:01
Speaker 5: Like, the weed is so fucking strong now that one in three or four people are going to literally go into, like, induced psychosis.
00:52:09
Speaker 1: From weed?
00:52:10
Speaker 5: You ever see people, like, people literally, motherfuckers have paranoid, quote unquote, paranoid thoughts when they smoke weed. People really go into drug-induced psychosis and they kill themselves.
00:52:19
Speaker 2: Hold on, not only that, I have friends that now have trained themselves that they can't eat without going outside in the restaurant and smoking.
00:52:25
Speaker 1: Literally. Like, I don't believe that, like.
00:52:28
Speaker 3: Habitual. The habitual smokers, it's weird.
00:52:31
Speaker 1: I can't smoke. Shout out to Trev. Without doing anything.
00:52:34
Speaker 2: Shout out to Trev, because he did call me out, and it made me think of... Trev is one of our patrons, by the way. But he linked when I talked about surveillance kind of being something good.
00:52:42
Speaker 1: You just talked about how everything's linked.
00:52:44
Speaker 2: And I think what I'm noticing more than ever is not only our news, but when we get into surveillance and what AI is able to do... It's tricky because now you could put people in places that they weren't really at.
00:52:55
Speaker 1: You could change voices.
00:52:56
Speaker 2: It was a whole season of The Morning Show. And I was just like, oh shit. We talk about where AI is. Even how we.
00:53:02
Speaker 1: Consume our news, right? When you're on the internet, sometimes I'm seeing a video or I'm seeing now something. By the way, ladies. sorry because I'm the only one lady on a mic.
00:53:13
Speaker 2: I don't know if you know Instagram is telling on you you bitches that don't like to take cute selfies but want to make it with chat GPT or whatever AI it says AI content on the top so you bitches are cartoons at this point like the people can see the ones with common sense because some people don't fell for AI bitches but it's it's out here.
00:53:38
Speaker 5: I saw a video the other day of Desi Banks dancing. And I was like, I'm like, damn, Desi killing that shit.
00:53:45
Speaker 1: I'm like, why the dance? It wasn't him.
00:53:47
Speaker 5: No, I'm looking, I'm like, that nigga can't dance this motherfucker good.
00:53:50
Speaker 3: And I'm looking at it, and the shoes changed on the image. Then the color of his pants changed, and I was like... He got six fingers.
00:53:56
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:53:56
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm not going to lie.
00:53:58
Speaker 1: I posted a video of Bill Clinton in the White House shaking his head. Oh, you can barely tell.
00:54:02
Speaker 5: And nothing that we've gotten has been this advanced as soon as we've gotten it.
00:54:06
Speaker 1: No, it looks so good. Give them five years. No, no. Six months ago, AI couldn't even do fingers. Now, they're full.
00:54:13
Speaker 5: No, somebody just posted a flyer of me saying I was performing somewhere, and I got like eight fingers on my hand.
00:54:17
Speaker 3: But they folded up. Oh, yeah, to be mashed up together.
00:54:20
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. They got the free version. They got the free version. And I was like this.
00:54:24
Speaker 5: I was like holding my hands like this, but it's like some extra fingers lapped on top of my finger.
00:54:28
Speaker 3: I was like.
00:54:29
Speaker 1: Is there a robot.
00:54:31
Speaker 2: TV show, film, movie, that you've seen that you're like, okay, this doesn't seem so bad.
00:54:38
Speaker 1: Because the Jetsons didn't include any of this shit. I thought it was going to be fun.
00:54:42
Speaker 2: The Jetsons looked like we were just going to be flying in cars and be able to think of an outfit and put it on.
00:54:46
Speaker 1: It was so cool. It's not giving Jetsons. iRobot, maybe not.
00:54:51
Speaker 2: I still didn't buy my Neo yet, but I think I am going to get them. But they say you can't walk upstairs.
00:54:56
Speaker 1: And you know I got stairs. And it's a spiral. So I was like, I can't. Then I'll have to buy two.
00:55:00
Speaker 3: No. Transformers. Why you keep saying Transformers?
00:55:04
Speaker 6: When I was a kid, right? Because I was fascinated with this shit. I'm still kind of, as an adult. I'm still a kid. I'll drive on the highway. It'd be nighttime and shit. Not under the influence of anything.
00:55:16
Speaker 3: But when I see an 18-year-old, I'm like, damn. That shit could just stand up? Five of these niggas on the road right now.
00:55:22
Speaker 5: What if this shit just pull over and just turn into Optimus Prime? So now, with AI, saying that AI is acting independently of.
00:55:31
Speaker 3: the brands, who the fuck knows? We already got.
00:55:34
Speaker 2: We have cars that drive themselves. We got electric cars that drive themselves.
00:55:37
Speaker 3: We have Waymos. Oh, we even talked about... What if we pull up on Saturday 18? We'll do it!
00:55:41
Speaker 1: I know you in there!
00:55:42
Speaker 3: Come on, Optimus! What if we... Roll out! Come on, my nigga! I think it'd be a Megatron nigga first. I think we'll just get right to it.
00:55:51
Speaker 6: But I'm thinking, like, if we're programming these things with bots, you insert these things in the vehicle.
00:55:57
Speaker 3: Are we far-fetched from that reality?
00:55:59
Speaker 2: Did you see that they're now bringing technology where you sniff it up your nose like coke?
00:56:04
Speaker 3: What?
00:56:05
Speaker 1: You saw it. Damn, I didn't drop it in the chat.
00:56:07
Speaker 2: So there's nanobytes or whatever they're called.
00:56:10
Speaker 1: You sniff them up your nose literally like coke. Do that shit. By the way, I did that because I see it in the movies. I do not do that.
00:56:16
Speaker 3: Just so y'all know. I don't do it.
00:56:18
Speaker 1: I don't do it.
00:56:22
Speaker 3: We not judging you.
00:56:22
Speaker 1: I do have a thing. Put all our rocks down. I do have a thing. Because we both got programmed.
00:56:28
Speaker 3: Y'all know we got some of that 17 times.
00:56:30
Speaker 2: Listen, but no, but so, and what it's essentially doing, which is also scary, is it's getting into to figuring out how our brains work.
00:56:39
Speaker 1: Like, neurologically.
00:56:40
Speaker 3: What is it attached to?
00:56:41
Speaker 1: In order, It's robots going into.
00:56:44
Speaker 5: Can you look it up, girl?
00:56:45
Speaker 3: What is it communicating with?
00:56:47
Speaker 1: It's a company.
00:56:48
Speaker 5: There's probably a mainframe. The human brain is like outside of the sea.
00:56:55
Speaker 2: By the way, the human brain that we still.
00:56:57
Speaker 1: Don't know about, which is why they.
00:56:59
Speaker 2: Take it out of players that have CTE because it's something that they genuinely cannot study unless a person has passed. So knowing that there's so much limited information around CTE and, you know, Always got to send prayers to Chris Johnson and what he's dealing with. But there's so many neurological functions and things that happen with our brain that we still do not know.
00:57:20
Speaker 1: That now they're putting on robots to figure it out.
00:57:22
Speaker 3: I'd like to tell you something. Uh-oh. Tricky.
00:57:26
Speaker 4: Tricky.
00:57:26
Speaker 5: And this is something that a lot of people don't know, don't believe, and if you're a certain.
00:57:31
Speaker 3: Person, you're going to go against it. But however you want.
00:57:34
Speaker 5: To do it, you take it and you do what you want. I had a line in a song that said... And I never put it out.
00:57:40
Speaker 3: Oh. And so.
00:57:42
Speaker 5: This is gonna- For this reason? No, just, I had a line in a song, and if you, have y'all done drugs before?
00:57:48
Speaker 3: Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A number of drugs.
00:57:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, a couple. A number of drugs. Subjective.
00:57:52
Speaker 3: Okay, so we're talking.
00:57:53
Speaker 1: About what's considered, what? Weed is a drug. I'm talking about this, right?
00:57:57
Speaker 5: I had a line that said, when I'm on these drugs, that's who I want to be. When I'm on these drugs, that's who I want to be, right? Because think about this. You know how much we wish we could sit and fucking focus on one task and literally get so much shit done and be productive?
00:58:11
Speaker 3: Boom, pop an Adderall.
00:58:13
Speaker 1: Right?
00:58:13
Speaker 5: Now it's not that I want that type of shit.
00:58:16
Speaker 3: All day long. But for this four hours, couple hours.
00:58:20
Speaker 5: For the focus that I need, and for how much I get done when I take an Adderall, or what is it called, Vyvanse or some shit like that?
00:58:27
Speaker 3: I think it's Vyvanse, Ritalin, there's.
00:58:29
Speaker 5: A bunch of kind of stuff. That's who the fuck I want to be in a sense of being productive, right?
00:58:34
Speaker 1: Yes.
00:58:34
Speaker 3: You ever took shrooms?
00:58:36
Speaker 1: Of course. Okay.
00:58:37
Speaker 3: Do you notice how, and I explain to people.
00:58:39
Speaker 5: These are things that people, and this is why some of this shit gets you in quote unquote trouble because it awakens you or it puts you in a mind state that's like, you know too much.
00:58:51
Speaker 3: We got to make it illegal. If we catch your ass, we're going to throw you under something.
00:58:54
Speaker 5: We're going to kill you or we're going to throw you under something like you wish you were dead or you're going to sit here long enough until you rot. Okay, so we've stayed in apartments before, right? So, you know, it's not like when you stay in apartment complexes, none of your neighbors ever went into your apartment. You know, black people, like, unless you make friends with somebody, and even then, like, I've never stayed in an apartment with one.
00:59:13
Speaker 1: Of my neighbors.
00:59:14
Speaker 3: I live in the Bronx.
00:59:15
Speaker 1: Never went in nobody's apartment.
00:59:16
Speaker 3: They never came into yours.
00:59:18
Speaker 5: The door opened, like, cracked, and now you talk through the door.
00:59:22
Speaker 1: Literally.
00:59:22
Speaker 5: Every once in a while, every once in a while, they may be taking the groceries in or something, and you be walking behind them, or they going in the house same time as you, and you walk.
00:59:29
Speaker 1: Past, and you just... You peek real quick and just see what's going on in there. Watch this. That's weird.
00:59:34
Speaker 5: Tell me if I'm lying or not. If you've ever taken shrooms... Your brain is the apartment complex. Your brain is the whole complex, right? Every fucking door, every pathway, like, boom. The part of your brain that you're using is your apartment, right? And you go into different parts of your apartment at any given time. When you get on them shrooms, Tell me that you are not able to go outside of your apartment into another apartment.
00:59:56
Speaker 1: Somebody else's crib.
00:59:57
Speaker 5: And it allows you to open new neural pathways that you didn't know you even fucking had. You see shit that you're not able to see unless you're on it.
01:00:06
Speaker 1: You think shit.
01:00:07
Speaker 5: You have experiences about yourself. You figure out who you are. You figure out trauma. It's like an antidepressant. Do you get depressed anymore? Like on a high level?
01:00:17
Speaker 1: I'm different. Okay.
01:00:18
Speaker 3: I'm different.
01:00:19
Speaker 5: Okay, so now, like, when you were depressed when you were younger, it was like, hey, what's wrong with you? Ain't nothing wrong, but it's something wrong, and I don't know how to express that to you.
01:00:25
Speaker 3: Yes. You can express that better now.
01:00:27
Speaker 1: Yes, but I think that that's not because I have a lot of shroom trips.
01:00:31
Speaker 3: It's experience with life, too.
01:00:32
Speaker 1: It's experience with life, too. Experience with life, yeah.
01:00:34
Speaker 5: But some of that is to say, like, if you're using these things and you're noticing certain other things, and now the same to say to abuse anything, or I'm not telling y'all to use no drugs.
01:00:44
Speaker 1: Right.
01:00:45
Speaker 3: No way, shape, form, or fashion. I'm just giving you an experience from... I'm giving you some news that you can use, okay?
01:00:55
Speaker 5: Give me some knowledge without the college, so.
01:01:01
Speaker 3: If you can open new neural pathways by.
01:01:05
Speaker 5: Taking this thing and it shows you and opens you up to worlds or to like things that you see.
01:01:10
Speaker 1: Or makes you question things.
01:01:12
Speaker 5: You question things and you start to like make, you come to conclusions and like you figure shit out about yourself.
01:01:17
Speaker 3: And you're just like, oh, you know what? That's why I was depressed. That's why I did that.
01:01:20
Speaker 5: I don't think I want to do that no more. Tomorrow I need to get up and do X, Y, Z. And I need to make sure that I stick to it.
01:01:25
Speaker 1: Boom. Papa Adderall.
01:01:26
Speaker 5: Damn, I'm productive all of a sudden. I got the shit done that I was thinking about doing on Shrooms. I'm doing some self-work. Or like, you know what I'm saying?
01:01:32
Speaker 1: Boom.
01:01:32
Speaker 5: I can smoke some weed in healthy doses and it's like, it makes me think a bit more introspective. And like, they call it, oh, medicinal. We're using it for sight or this, this, that.
01:01:42
Speaker 1: Well, no, that's why the government got in there too.
01:01:44
Speaker 3: They put all types of shit on it. They put all types of shit on it. You know what I'm saying? But it's like, all of it.
01:01:49
Speaker 5: Are these things, like, other than, like, the bad quote-unquote effects that they, like, so anything can be bad for you.
01:01:54
Speaker 3: 100%.
01:01:56
Speaker 5: Too much of anything can be bad for you. So knowing what to do, how to do it, and then what kind of doses is the important part.
01:02:03
Speaker 1: Yeah.
01:02:03
Speaker 5: Right? And so they say, don't do drugs. Don't have sex. How the fuck are we supposed to procreate? How the fuck are we supposed to make kids?
01:02:11
Speaker 1: How the fuck are we supposed to... What we not going to do. What we not going to do is connect sex to kids. No, I'm just saying.
01:02:16
Speaker 3: No, no, no. But it is. No, no, no. No, but it's not.
01:02:19
Speaker 1: Listen, listen, listen. There's a reason to have sex without procreation.
01:02:22
Speaker 3: No, I'm just telling you. I'm just telling you. The fundamental. I'm just telling you, like, it's a certain stuff that they scare you. You know, you can have babies without sex. I want Mandy to take shoes and then go in the apartment you're talking about. I'm telling you. when she's having kids and see what that look.
01:02:36
Speaker 8: Like that apartment don't exist but all of these things all of these things are set up to keep you away from shit you know listen to this okay so and this is on a deeper level right let's go.
01:02:48
Speaker 5: There you know your pineal gland sits right here right and you don't wanna you know they give us toothpaste and shit that like calcifies your pineal gland right facts did you know did you know fun fact your wisdom tooth are connected to your pineal gland and it's a billion dollar a year industry, they never tell you that your wisdom tooth force is supposed to grow in, hurt a little bit, and then they straighten up and you're fine for the rest of your life.
01:03:11
Speaker 1: As soon as you feel a little, uh, uh, uh, come on, let's get them out.
01:03:14
Speaker 3: Right?
01:03:15
Speaker 5: And so this shit is connected to your pineal gland and it's supposed to help you open this and think on a higher level, but let's pull them out because we ain't going to give you the knowledge. And if you don't go seek it or if you don't know it, it ain't our job to just fucking like, you know what I'm saying?
01:03:29
Speaker 3: That's why it's called the wisdom. No, actually the funny thing is what he's saying.
01:03:31
Speaker 1: Wait, is that why it's called the wisdom?
01:03:33
Speaker 3: You understand what I'm saying?
01:03:34
Speaker 1: Whoa.
01:03:35
Speaker 3: Wait, wait, wait.
01:03:35
Speaker 1: This is real. This is real. Look it up.
01:03:37
Speaker 3: No, here's the thing. Wait, without even looking it up, why? Think about it. Why?
01:03:42
Speaker 1: We never asked.
01:03:42
Speaker 5: We just said, oh, we're going to pull the wisdom. No, but here's the funny part about what he's saying. So when I was younger, the dentist that I had was a black dentist. And he told me from the beginning, he was like, your wisdom teeth are growing in at a weird angle, but you're not going to have to worry about it because the way they're growing.
01:03:57
Speaker 1: In, you'll be good.
01:03:59
Speaker 5: The dentist that I just went and saw six months ago was like, oh yeah, we need to get those up out of here. They're growing weird. And I'm like, well, they always told me since I was in elementary school.
01:04:08
Speaker 3: Do they hurt? I was good. No, they don't give me no pain at all.
01:04:10
Speaker 1: That's what I told her.
01:04:10
Speaker 3: I was like, they don't hurt at all.
01:04:11
Speaker 1: They want to make us dumb.
01:04:12
Speaker 3: They want to take out our wisdom teeth? Did the correlation. Between, I bet you the correlate, you got your wisdom tooth?
01:04:20
Speaker 1: Well, there's four of them, right?
01:04:22
Speaker 3: They tricked you.
01:04:23
Speaker 1: But you so wise.
01:04:25
Speaker 3: Watch out. You want to take your stones and go over there?
01:04:31
Speaker 5: Grab your bag of stones.
01:04:35
Speaker 1: I'm not playing with time.
01:04:38
Speaker 5: Okay, let's get into some- All this shit is just fucked up, but I'd say that to say that.
01:04:42
Speaker 6: We- Listen, another month, everybody, well, for those who partake in that type of beef- Wait, another month?
01:04:47
Speaker 3: Y'all going to be eating, what do you call that shit?
01:04:49
Speaker 1: Horse meat?
01:04:49
Speaker 3: Fake meat. Well, we already there now. Yeah, they had the bullshit. That Brazilian RT.
01:04:55
Speaker 1: Here we go. Wait, Chick-fil-A fake? Don't do that.
01:04:58
Speaker 3: Because I was going to do that today. Ben!
01:05:00
Speaker 1: It's the best tasting chicken.
01:05:02
Speaker 3: I thought they had real... Seasoning, seasoning.
01:05:04
Speaker 1: Isn't it? Antibiotic-free chicken?
01:05:06
Speaker 3: That part I don't know about. It's on the billboards. So? Oh, is it?
01:05:09
Speaker 1: I need to know where you heard this.
01:05:10
Speaker 3: No, no, no.
01:05:11
Speaker 1: Because I heard the chicken is real in the Chick-fil-A. No, no, no.
01:05:13
Speaker 3: But look, what did it say on the board? I'm going to tell you. Look it up.
01:05:16
Speaker 1: Look it up. No, but what did it.
01:05:18
Speaker 3: Say, though? It said C-H-I-K-I-N.
01:05:20
Speaker 1: What is that? So because they spell it wrong, it's not chicken?
01:05:24
Speaker 3: It's like KFC.
01:05:25
Speaker 1: What's KFC?
01:05:25
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something.
01:05:26
Speaker 1: Kentucky Fried Chicken.
01:05:27
Speaker 3: But when have you heard them say that in the last 20 years? Kentucky Fried Chicken.
01:05:31
Speaker 1: The kernel is still there. Let me tell you something. Hold on.
01:05:37
Speaker 2: Chick-fil-A uses 100% real whole boneless chicken breast that has never.
01:05:41
Speaker 3: You believe everything you see on the internet? Says the AI. Says the AI. Let me tell you something. I got the app.
01:05:48
Speaker 5: And I'm a fucking master, right? I got over 100,000 app points for Chick-fil-A. I got enough Chick-fil-A points right now. Everybody in this room could probably eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the next week and a half, two weeks.
01:06:04
Speaker 1: Okay.
01:06:05
Speaker 3: Probably the next month.
01:06:06
Speaker 1: But you know it's, or you believe it's not real?
01:06:08
Speaker 5: They literally told us that they were going to start using meat substitutes on the app. Or that they were going to alter.
01:06:13
Speaker 3: Oh. I read it, and I was like, Damn.
01:06:16
Speaker 1: Did you screenshot it? Did it come back?
01:06:17
Speaker 5: I didn't screenshot it because it was like 2021, 2022. I specifically remember when they sent that and they was like, we're going to have to start like, they can't tell you like, hey.
01:06:27
Speaker 3: We're going to be freeing y'all. Do you notice it takes stringy sometimes when.
01:06:30
Speaker 1: You get it?
01:06:31
Speaker 5: That's the shit that always, any chicken I've ever had that had that.
01:06:34
Speaker 3: Always made me nervous. And I'm going to ask you something.
01:06:37
Speaker 1: Let me ask you something.
01:06:39
Speaker 3: When do you find time, where and how often do you see chickens being And how often do you see chicken places selling chickens? You think we got this many fucking chickens.
01:06:49
Speaker 1: In the world?
01:06:50
Speaker 3: Hold on.
01:06:50
Speaker 1: I done said that about your salmon, nigga.
01:06:53
Speaker 2: That's why they doing farm raise and they really selling dolphin meat and all the other shit. I've never seen salmon become this broad of a fish. When I was growing up, salmon wasn't that popular.
01:07:03
Speaker 1: Oh, lamb chop, oxtail.
01:07:04
Speaker 3: We didn't know about none of that shit.
01:07:06
Speaker 1: I know about oxtail. I'm Jamaican.
01:07:07
Speaker 3: You was in Mississippi.
01:07:08
Speaker 1: You ain't know about oxtail?
01:07:09
Speaker 3: Listen, okay, all right. I'll see you in the interview.
01:07:14
Speaker 1: Okay, not the lamb chops. Not the lamb chops.
01:07:18
Speaker 5: I wasn't eating Bambi growing up. When we were growing up, we didn't even have shrimp tacos, chicken tacos. We had ground fucking beef tacos.
01:07:25
Speaker 3: Hard shell. The shredded lettuce, the cheese. Sour cream was nasty to us because we was kids.
01:07:31
Speaker 1: No.
01:07:32
Speaker 3: I put sour cream on everything.
01:07:33
Speaker 1: I'm half white.
01:07:33
Speaker 3: You're half white. You different. Mayonnaise on a taco.
01:07:36
Speaker 1: Do your thing. Mayonnaise on tacos is diabolical. Don't try to act like you do. That is devilish.
01:07:42
Speaker 3: Hold on.
01:07:43
Speaker 1: Mayonnaise on tacos. She did it. Sold her.
01:07:45
Speaker 3: Hand me that rock, brother.
01:07:46
Speaker 1: Wait a second.
01:07:48
Speaker 3: Wait a second.
01:07:49
Speaker 2: Are we saying that mayonnaise and sour cream are of the same ilk?
01:07:53
Speaker 4: No.
01:07:54
Speaker 5: I fuck with them both. You don't get in trouble like me.
01:07:58
Speaker 3: You don't?
01:07:58
Speaker 1: On a taco? I do.
01:07:59
Speaker 3: I would have been throwing a rock at myself. I was about to say.
01:08:04
Speaker 1: That's not a damn question.
01:08:06
Speaker 6: The question is, all you niggas that know that Chick-fil-A got the bullshit in it, y'all still going to eat it?
01:08:12
Speaker 3: And them. So when Kanye says slavery was a choice, we do. Oh my God.
01:08:17
Speaker 1: I see what you're doing.
01:08:19
Speaker 5: Due to a common commercial poultry muscle disorder known as spaghetti meat or related structure.
01:08:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's disgusting.
01:08:24
Speaker 1: That's why it'd be strange. Spaghetti meat.
01:08:26
Speaker 5: Why you started making excuses? I don't know that the chickens is sick. Well, why y'all feeding us sick chickens?
01:08:31
Speaker 1: Duh, they cloned them too. They got two heads. Capitalism.
01:08:33
Speaker 3: No one cares. Are they real then? A clone is a substitute for the what? The real thing. And it might have human meat in there. You never know.
01:08:43
Speaker 1: Why are you taking this so far? That's a different story.
01:08:46
Speaker 3: But we talked about trust before, right?
01:08:47
Speaker 5: Why are you taking it so far? You trust these people in the manufacturing place? That's a totally different story.
01:08:51
Speaker 1: You believe we eat in humans? They said we eat in horse. You know the amount. Soylent Green.
01:08:54
Speaker 3: You know the amount. Soylent Green. I'm going to tell you something. The amount of human meat.

Speaker 5: Then some of those beef patties that you eat from McDonald's is not 0%.
01:09:07
Speaker 3: Absolutely.
01:09:07
Speaker 5: The amount of human meat in this shit is not 0%.
01:09:10
Speaker 1: Because somebody cut their finger?
01:09:11
Speaker 3: Let me tell you what happens. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you what happens. Let me tell you what happens. Now, this is the type of shit that I don't do.
01:09:17
Speaker 1: I need to know your YouTube algorithm.
01:09:18
Speaker 5: I know shit about shit, or I, like, listen to shit. I'm trying to know a little bit about a lot.
01:09:22
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something. You think all of these kids come up missing and are being sex trafficked, right, and are given the chance to wash up somewhere, like, or be found?
01:09:33
Speaker 5: Let me tell you how this shit works. It ain't enough fucking cows, right? Let's just be honest about it. We got to supply people with steaks. We got to supply people with beef ribs. We got to supply people with the oxtail. We need plenty of fucking ground beef. Okay, and so humans are also red meat.
01:09:52
Speaker 3: You understand me?
01:09:53
Speaker 5: You think that all these kids that are coming up missing... Right? And it's like, we are a greedy fucking nation.
01:10:00
Speaker 3: Oh, this is getting dark.
01:10:00
Speaker 1: This is getting so dark.
01:10:02
Speaker 3: Well, to be fair, to be fair.
01:10:03
Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on. Stakes at Hal's is different than stakes at Longhorn.
01:10:07
Speaker 3: Just saying. Oh, yeah. Longhorn is dead meat. Oh, no.
01:10:10
Speaker 1: What's Longhorn?
01:10:10
Speaker 5: After that video from Kent Creek came out, yeah, Longhorn is big dick.
01:10:14
Speaker 3: Watch this.
01:10:15
Speaker 5: We need beef tips. We need beef cheek. Y'all never had beef cheek. I had that shit for the first time.
01:10:21
Speaker 3: Beef cheek, beef tongue, all of this shit that feeds people.
01:10:22
Speaker 1: Watch this.
01:10:23
Speaker 3: Watch this.
01:10:25
Speaker 5: These kids that are coming up missing and never being fucking found, right? Or being sent to butcher shops. And because all of the meat is ground up at the same time, you don't know to consider. How many times you tasted a, I tell people all the time, duck tastes like chicken and pork fused together.
01:10:39
Speaker 1: Oh, I love duck. I just have duck.
01:10:40
Speaker 5: Duck tastes like chicken and pork fused together. Some people may say chicken and beef fused together.
01:10:43
Speaker 1: Chicken, yeah. Chicken and pork, I like that.
01:10:45
Speaker 3: Watch this.

01:11:01
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry if y'all are eating lunch while listening to this episode.
01:11:03
Speaker 6: In the Caribbean, right, they eat fried frog legs and they say it tastes like chicken wings.
01:11:07
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, no. I just have frog legs in France.
01:11:10
Speaker 3: And you know, like, it's all other types of shit.

01:11:15
Speaker 3: And the Caribbean are two different... Hot dogs got every fucking type of meat in it. Yeah, hot dogs.
01:11:20
Speaker 5: Hot dogs is just a mixture of meat. And I'm going to tell y'all something. If you think that these kids are coming up missing or that people are never able to find their fucking kids again, They rape, they use, they burn these kids with cigarettes. They got fucking pedophiles, people who are torturing and raping these kids in basements and in places, shipping containers. We find people in fucking shipping containers.
01:11:42
Speaker 3: Yeah.
01:11:43
Speaker 1: Or being sold on Wayfair. I'll tell you what. I'll tell you fucking what.

01:11:55
Speaker 3: We finding people in shipping containers. Kids, you see this shit?
01:11:59
Speaker 5: You think people just make up scenarios about people just coming up missing?
01:12:02
Speaker 3: No, you think people's kids are just coming up missing for fucking nothing? No.
01:12:05
Speaker 5: They don't just come up missing for nothing. They're torturing, raping, beating, and killing these kids. Out of fear that they're gonna tell, we can't just throw all y'all in the ocean or let the dolphins and the fish eat us. It's because we risk motherfuckers being found. We risk a body washing up on shore. We risk somebody diving one day in a certain area and just being nosy and it's like, what the fuck is this doing out here? We have to hide this shit. We have to do something with it. Why the fuck we find the fingers in the Wendy's chili? Didn't nobody know they got their.
01:12:33
Speaker 3: Finger cut off in the factory?
01:12:34
Speaker 1: Yeah. That shit's scary.
01:12:35
Speaker 5: Didn't nobody know their finger was cut off in the factory?
01:12:38
Speaker 3: That shit's scary. Boom, finger off. Hey, I lost my finger.
01:12:41
Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait.
01:12:42
Speaker 3: That was there?
01:12:43
Speaker 2: That was a long, long time ago.
01:12:47
Speaker 1: That was over 10, 15 years ago.
01:12:49
Speaker 6: Even so, they never tested the finger to find out where that finger may have came from.
01:12:53
Speaker 1: Somebody did. No one just cared anymore.
01:12:55
Speaker 3: They would have talked about it. You in the factory and you lose your fucking finger. Bruh, I lost my finger making chili.
01:12:59
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, yeah.
01:13:00
Speaker 3: What batch was it in? We know not to send none of this out or let's cancel the whole shit.
01:13:03
Speaker 5: But we never knew the finger was there because this meat is coming from somewhere we don't know where the fuck it's from.
01:13:07
Speaker 3: And that was with regulation. Now we don't have it.
01:13:09
Speaker 1: We have no regulation. And then people have I've found body parts in that shit before.
01:13:13
Speaker 2: All I want to tell y'all is, I don't think this hard when I go out.
01:13:21
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm not going to lie. I can't.
01:13:23
Speaker 3: I can't.
01:13:23
Speaker 1: What I order is what I believe what I'm going to do.
01:13:26
Speaker 2: You said there's no more seeds. I ain't got a garden. When I go out, I'm going to order what I order.
01:13:30
Speaker 1: I'm going to think of this.
01:13:31
Speaker 2: To be fair, they could be lying to me because, you know, I don't trust nobody. They could be lying to me when I.
01:13:34
Speaker 1: Say it's a farm-raising. I'm going to tell you something.
01:13:37
Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you something. This is the hole we dug ourselves into. Yep. Oh, I know.
01:13:40
Speaker 1: We're digging.
01:13:41
Speaker 3: We're digging.
01:13:42
Speaker 5: And we're still digging. And we're still digging. You don't go to other countries. And let me tell you something. We are America.
01:13:48
Speaker 3: It's the rich, bougie, ain't he? That ain't got shit figured out.
01:13:50
Speaker 1: That ain't got shit figured out.
01:13:51
Speaker 3: I went to Thailand.
01:13:52
Speaker 1: I went to Qatar.
01:13:53
Speaker 3: I'm like, these people are fucking rich.
01:13:54
Speaker 1: They are happy.
01:13:55
Speaker 3: Everybody is happy.
01:13:56
Speaker 1: They're not consumed. People walk.
01:13:59
Speaker 3: They don't have the same issues.
01:14:00
Speaker 2: Oh, in Singapore, when I moved there, when I studied abroad, we did a tour of the city. You could get from one side of the island to the other. Well, I guess it's a country state, whatever they call it. But literally, one side to the next 20 minutes, right? Without traffic, because it's so bad. But they literally said, we don't even lock our doors here. You can leave them unlocked. There's no homelessness. There's no crime. They've figured out a system to where everyone either has a livable wage, there's enough housing for everyone. Now, they keep building on top of each other. But it's literally a country state where they've figured it.
01:14:31
Speaker 1: The fuck out.
01:14:32
Speaker 3: But over there, that shit is valued. Yeah.
01:14:36
Speaker 5: Everything that a sociologist would say about America, when they talk about, oh, it's crime in America and all this other shit, and people, the response to that is always, well, if you fix the schools, make sure people could have healthcare, and make sure that people could have a livable wage, you wouldn't see no crime. You wouldn't see those type of societies over here because... What would be the reason to go sell dope? What would be the reason to spin the block?
01:14:59
Speaker 3: What would be the reason to do all that shit? If you just gave people the... And that's just bare necessities.
01:15:03
Speaker 5: We're not talking about giving everybody a Bentley or everybody a Rolls Royce.
01:15:07
Speaker 3: We're just talking about.
01:15:08
Speaker 5: The bare necessities to live as a human being in this structured society.
01:15:13
Speaker 3: And America doesn't want to do that shit.
01:15:15
Speaker 1: It don't.
01:15:16
Speaker 3: And other countries are down for it all.
01:15:17
Speaker 5: You ever notice how we trying to constantly conquer other people? or gain territories, what's going to happen is these people are going to assume, this is why we have to hurry up and try to conquer or get these people so.
01:15:28
Speaker 1: We can move over to.
01:15:29
Speaker 2: I just want to enjoy life. I'm not going to try to conquer nobody. What's going to happen is the.
01:15:36
Speaker 5: People who are not in America and don't have to subscribe to or abide by some of the same laws are going to see like, damn. You ever see somebody be like, why they treat their kids like that? Damn, that's how they treat their kids.
01:15:48
Speaker 1: We literally like- Oh, that's how they talk about us as a country.
01:15:52
Speaker 5: You feel what I'm saying? And so it's like, we need to get y'all over here so we can make y'all our kids. Because before y'all sit up and watch what we're turning our people into and y'all realize that we don't want to be a part of this shit.
01:16:03
Speaker 3: They see us.
01:16:04
Speaker 5: You know, people don't like Americans. I know. People don't fucking like us.
01:16:09
Speaker 1: They don't fuck with us.
01:16:09
Speaker 3: Which is why.
01:16:10
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
01:16:11
Speaker 3: And it's not our fault.
01:16:12
Speaker 1: To be honest, there is an ignorance.
01:16:14
Speaker 2: And entitlement of when Americans go to other countries. Like, I'll be honest, this is very ignorant. The way we're... Who was I just with?
01:16:22
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna give no names. All I know is the way we all stay here.
01:16:27
Speaker 2: And wanted Brittany Griner free and the way all these motherfuckers are still traveling with drugs, I let them know. If you travel with it, I'm going to sit here and go online and be like, well, he knew better. Like the idea of the arrogance that we can sit here and it's kind of the conversation when Jameela was here. She was like, oh, I was pissing in Mexico and they tried to lock me up. She said it was kidnapping, but.
01:16:50
Speaker 1: There's rules and laws that.
01:16:52
Speaker 2: No one thinks they have to abide by when they go across the.
01:16:55
Speaker 1: Water because they're American.
01:16:57
Speaker 2: So I get what you're saying, but there's also like a level of ignorance and arrogance that these other countries see that we exist with that be like... Y'all doing it to yourselves, to be real. I feel like a lot of what we're doing.
01:17:10
Speaker 3: Sure.
01:17:10
Speaker 2: Go to L.A., the smog across the city, it's the cars, it's the way we live. We are doing this to ourselves.
01:17:16
Speaker 3: And to his point, that's why.
01:17:19
Speaker 5: especially conservative types, they push this idea of if you're an immigrant, they want you to assimilate.
01:17:24
Speaker 3: Oh, you come in here, this is a Christian nation.
01:17:27
Speaker 5: And this is how you're supposed to live and you're supposed to adopt American ways because they want everyone to be on this American time as opposed to what they're on over there. And to your point, maybe that's because they don't want people to find, they want people to get.
01:17:42
Speaker 3: Used to living like this and whatever it is that we're hiding. We sound like selective intelligence people.
01:17:48
Speaker 1: First off, no.
01:17:51
Speaker 2: This is very much conspiracy theorists down the hall. I do want to say, we only going to hit two of these three, y'all, before we get out of here. So celebrities say the darndest things. We got Chris Brown, Macklemore, and playing R.
01:18:02
Speaker 1: Kelly. Which two do we want to do?
01:18:05
Speaker 5: Um....
01:18:07
Speaker 1: Actually... I do want to start with Chris Brown because I want to talk about black men getting a second chance in America.
01:18:13
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
01:18:14
Speaker 1: Let's get there. We got three black men on the mic. With selective intelligence. So I feel like we can get somewhere with this.
01:18:20
Speaker 3: Nobody, no chances.
01:18:24
Speaker 2: Chris Brown did call out Representative Vinton Jones after he apologized to black women in for honoring Chris during his Texas show with a congressional record of recognition. By the way, y'all, it's literally just recognition. It ain't got nothing to do with the midterms, with voting. They didn't go up there and say, vote this person. Chris Brown and Usher have both not been politically aligned.
01:18:48
Speaker 1: You can just get one.
01:18:49
Speaker 3: You can look.
01:18:50
Speaker 1: Standard by which you have to earn.
01:18:51
Speaker 3: It's like an honorary degree.
01:18:52
Speaker 2: Y'all ain't going to sit here and let these motherfuckers be doctors with honorary degrees.
01:18:56
Speaker 1: This means absolutely nothing.
01:18:58
Speaker 3: Yes, it is a big nothing award.
01:19:00
Speaker 1: If you could zoom in to what he said.
01:19:02
Speaker 3: This is only a thing because we don't have a 48-hour work week. There we go. There we go.
01:19:07
Speaker 1: Funny thing is, y'all came to me with this.
01:19:09
Speaker 3: He definitely eat Chick-fil-A.
01:19:12
Speaker 2: Listen, y'all came to me with this, not the other way around. I was minding my damn business. My shows in Dallas were already sold out. I ain't asked to be honored because I knew some shit like this would happen. He continues, By at inventing Jones and being like, you know, here we are. By the way, for any of the black women that attended the Christopher Maurice Brown show and Usher Raymond, they have already forgiven him of whatever behavior because they don't already spent their money to attend this goddamn concert.
01:19:46
Speaker 1: Period. So I don't know who.
01:19:49
Speaker 2: Representative Vinton Jones felt like he needed to apologize for outside of the internet making a fuss about this. Jasmine Crockett, as a black woman, clearly has also already forgiven Chris Brown for his former troubles.
01:20:05
Speaker 3: Former is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Don't do that.
01:20:07
Speaker 1: We're not talking about Christopher Murray's program. Oh, yeah, we are.
01:20:10
Speaker 2: Jasmine Crockett, I'm going to go with Rachel Lindsay. She said on Higher Learning, Jasmine was a fan. When you get access to stuff like this, I would do it too. Listen, y'all better not let me get into political office. I'm showing up to all the concerts I want to go to, backstage.
01:20:24
Speaker 3: Offstage, wherever I want to go.
01:20:26
Speaker 6: And the timing is probably where, but also he's taking advantage of him being on the other side of the hall going after Jasmine Crockett.
01:20:33
Speaker 1: That's all I feel like that is. That's really that part of it.
01:20:35
Speaker 3: But I'm pretty sure y'all are going to lean into, is he worthy of such?
01:20:43
Speaker 1: Not worthy. Who, Chris?
01:20:44
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, the thing is that this is a fan award.
01:20:48
Speaker 1: This is like an.
01:20:48
Speaker 3: MTV video music fan award.
01:20:51
Speaker 5: It's like a Nickelodeon Kids Choice Award that they gave out to Chris Brown. Like you said, because she's a fan. The problem is that Chris Brown doesn't have- Did I have dollars paid for that?
01:21:00
Speaker 3: Huh? No, go ahead.
01:21:00
Speaker 5: Chris Brown doesn't have former troubles. Chris Brown has troubles right now. Chris Brown is still doing all the shit that he was doing and getting him in trouble for, for years.
01:21:09
Speaker 1: Nothing has changed.
01:21:10
Speaker 3: What is it?
01:21:11
Speaker 5: He's still got cases for assault. He's just, he has a case right now.
01:21:14
Speaker 1: That was his dog.
01:21:15
Speaker 3: In the UK, right? Yeah.
01:21:16
Speaker 1: We're not going to put... That was his dog.
01:21:18
Speaker 3: It's his dog. You control your dog in your house.
01:21:20
Speaker 5: They said he took your dog on somebody or let your dog be loose on somebody.
01:21:24
Speaker 3: That's your responsibility.
01:21:25
Speaker 1: No, no, no. The dog was in the house. It was the cleaner. Like, you can't put that... That's your responsibility. You can't put that on him.
01:21:30
Speaker 3: That's your responsibility.
01:21:31
Speaker 1: And I say that.
01:21:33
Speaker 3: That's your responsibility.
01:21:33
Speaker 1: I say that as yes and no. I say that as.
01:21:37
Speaker 2: Someone who grew up with a vicious dog attack went to my cousin's house. No, a dog went to my cousin's house and me and my sister went to the backyard and my cousin's dog had just had puppies. We all went to go see the puppies and my sister, her entire half of her face was mauled. She had to have her jaw wired shut because her jaw was broke.
01:21:58
Speaker 1: They did put the dog down, but we never blamed her. My cousin, my auntie.
01:22:02
Speaker 3: That was your choice.
01:22:03
Speaker 1: You could.
01:22:04
Speaker 3: No, no, no.
01:22:04
Speaker 1: But we couldn't. That's a dog.
01:22:06
Speaker 3: You can because you own a dog. It's your responsibility. Oh, wait.
01:22:10
Speaker 1: And here we go. The dog actually belonged to his head of security. It wasn't even his dog was raised by him. Fantastic. You got to know.
01:22:21
Speaker 3: It's on your property.
01:22:24
Speaker 1: So it wasn't his dog.
01:22:26
Speaker 3: You're getting caught up in the dog.
01:22:27
Speaker 5: The point is that Chris Brown has had not just a second chance, a third chance, a fourth chance, a fifth chance. Chris Brown stays in an issue every single year, whether it's an assault, an arrest.
01:22:37
Speaker 3: Or something.
01:22:37
Speaker 1: Or a false accusation. A lot of the ones recently have been false.
01:22:41
Speaker 3: That's all true.
01:22:41
Speaker 1: He's been falsely accused.
01:22:43
Speaker 5: So Chris Brown is an innocent soul, a saint.
01:22:44
Speaker 1: I didn't say that.
01:22:45
Speaker 3: And he hasn't done nothing to nobody ever.
01:22:47
Speaker 5: Chris Brown has had his second chance, and he's going to keep getting second chances because people are going to vouch for Chris Brown regardless of what he does because they're all fans.
01:22:55
Speaker 1: So then do you disagree with Don Lemon?
01:22:57
Speaker 5: Yes, it was such a stupid. I don't even know why he said that dumb shit. He's got all the chances in the world. Nick, you know how you get second chances? You stop doing dumb shit. Everybody ain't getting locked up. Everybody ain't getting charged for everything all the time. Everybody ain't getting arrested all the time. You're making decisions that are putting you in these situations, specifically with assault situations where you're putting your hands on people whether it's a paparazzi or a fan trying to take a picture. There's a million things on his rap sheet that's why he's getting locked up. He's not being denied a second chance. He just did that in an arena full of people who paid their money, to your point, to come see him.
01:23:30
Speaker 3: What second chance he don't got?
01:23:31
Speaker 5: Ain't nobody oppressing Chris Brown.
01:23:33
Speaker 3: Chris Brown is doing it to himself.
01:23:35
Speaker 1: Okay.
01:23:36
Speaker 5: And that's just what it is. This is something I'm not doing to myself. Y'all honoring me with something. I'm not doing that to myself because it's bringing me negative publicity. Yeah, and that's what he's saying. It also, just like y'all had to explain beforehand, anybody can get one of these.
01:23:49
Speaker 1: Yeah.
01:23:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a nothing award.
01:23:51
Speaker 2: But see, the ignorance is people don't know what this is.
01:23:54
Speaker 5: Yeah, so now it's like, and I'm going to tell you something, and I'm not telling anybody to not advocate or any group of people to not advocate for themselves in the face of something wrong or unjust that has been done to you or people like you because that would be saying, it's along the lines of saying like, hey, stop talking about slavery.
01:24:12
Speaker 3: You feel what I'm saying?
01:24:14
Speaker 5: So I'm not going to say If we're going to sit up and say People should just shut the fuck up Let's be quiet about the Converse Just shut the fuck up Be quiet about the Gucci stuff Be quiet about the whole shit Everybody just shut the fuck up about everything We're not saying that, right? What we are saying is I'm going to say Advocate But we don't have to get so out of Now I can see if Chris Brown had an active And open case about some type of stuff that went on, like what happened in the past, by all means be flustered, be frustrated, be upset, like hold people accountable for the shit that they're doing wrong. But it's just like, hey, the man has paid for some of this stuff. We continue to scrutinize, criticize, and I'm not going to ever say that that shit is right on any level. I'm not sitting up here asking kids. And I realize like some of these people are your peers or you have to work with some of these people later on. And so I'm not condemning or judging or saying like shame on or, you know, I'm saying like none of that. But it's also like shit like, hey, guys, somebody just said thanks, Chris, for coming to our city. And it's like you're so flustered about what something that happened previously.
01:25:25
Speaker 2: Are there any black men that y'all can name that have done something wrong in their past?
01:25:32
Speaker 1: That that didn't stay with them and that people did give a second chance to. And I say this because... Shit all of us. Probably us.
01:25:37
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
01:25:38
Speaker 1: But publicly.
01:25:40
Speaker 2: And I say this because I was having this conversation with my boyfriend too and I was like, even when Kobe left us, right? As great as he was as a player, not to you because you're a hater, but as great as he was to so many people, even in his passing, even in his death, they brought up him cheating that incident in Colorado.
01:25:58
Speaker 3: Right?
01:25:59
Speaker 1: There's so many times.
01:26:00
Speaker 2: That When black men do anything, that's what defines them. We're seeing it actually happen with the juror on motherfucking the Lindsay Clancy case, which has been doxxed. And now he's being told that he was late on his run. Everything about his character is now being questioned. And he doesn't even just get to exist as a man who may have made mistakes or may have been a man that went through hardship in something. And so when we have these conversations and you being a black man who may not have lived life the most straight and linear or you're still living life and have like time to make mistakes. When does that not have to define you? And so you're making it seem as though that is still the defining thing.
01:26:39
Speaker 3: Chris Brown has a case right now.
01:26:40
Speaker 5: He's about to get sentenced for hitting somebody over the head with a bottle in London.
01:26:44
Speaker 3: Right now. It was a nigga?
01:26:47
Speaker 1: It was the nigga, yeah. But it was a brawl. There was multiple people. I don't know if he's going.
01:26:51
Speaker 3: To, I think he's going to be on fire.
01:26:52
Speaker 1: No, he's about to be sentenced.
01:26:54
Speaker 3: He's facing a sentence in the UK. This ain't even me making excuses. If I'm in the club, somebody getting hit with some of these bitches.
01:26:59
Speaker 5: I was about to let y'all niggas whoop me and be like, because ain't.
01:27:03
Speaker 3: Nobody going to give me the justice.
01:27:04
Speaker 1: I can't sue you. You ain't got the money I got.
01:27:06
Speaker 3: I ain't getting shit.
01:27:06
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not going to lie.
01:27:08
Speaker 5: You finna feel this Ace of Spades upside your fucking head. Well, I mean, self-defense isn't a crime.
01:27:13
Speaker 1: No, but that's what I'm saying. That's what it could have been. That's what that comes to.
01:27:16
Speaker 5: But now it's like, because Chris Brown is defending himself, he had a trial.
01:27:20
Speaker 1: We're not allowed to hit back? I hate that. I don't think that's the case.
01:27:24
Speaker 5: I think plenty of people have defended themselves, and you be like.
01:27:28
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. What? What?
01:27:30
Speaker 3: Maybe turn into Jai. Jai turn into Jai. No way. I'm going to tell you exactly what this is. She's giving grace. Somebody walk up.
01:27:37
Speaker 1: You think I'm giving grace?
01:27:38
Speaker 3: I'm buying it.
01:27:39
Speaker 1: Somebody walk up.
01:27:40
Speaker 3: Jai throwing stones. Maybe giving grace.
01:27:42
Speaker 1: Accused of attacking a music producer with a glass bar.
01:27:44
Speaker 2: He later played it guilty to a reduced charge.
01:27:46
Speaker 3: Because he knows he did it.
01:27:48
Speaker 1: So he's already been treated. He pleaded guilty to it. But we don't know. The one thing about it. Okay, okay, okay.
01:27:53
Speaker 3: This is where I won't give excuses, all right?
01:27:57
Speaker 4: Okay.
01:27:58
Speaker 5: So for anything, and this is me personally because I was not there. I don't know what was said or what was done.
01:28:03
Speaker 1: Thank you. Now, if you fighting a nigga.
01:28:06
Speaker 3: Hey, brother, y'all get y'all room on.
01:28:08
Speaker 1: Now, I can see if.
01:28:09
Speaker 3: We're addressing like, okay, he did this and it was wrong against women. Yes, yes.
01:28:13
Speaker 1: Man, my head is.
01:28:14
Speaker 5: Security dog business. Like, bro, I had no control over his dog. He just happened to be there, and it's like security measures.
01:28:20
Speaker 1: Okay, boom.
01:28:22
Speaker 5: It's gray area, and we can shift it however you want to shift it. It's certain shit like, I'm supposed to let a nigga sit.
01:28:27
Speaker 1: Up and whoop me? By the way, by the way, D, you've been out with me enough. He pleaded guilty.
01:28:32
Speaker 3: Who pleads guilty to some shit they did not do? But wait, wait, wait.
01:28:36
Speaker 1: Hold on. You think I just walk in here and be like, nice.
01:28:39
Speaker 3: To meet you?
01:28:40
Speaker 1: Who pleads guilty? We don't know if it's a fight or not.
01:28:44
Speaker 3: But he pleaded guilty in a foreign jurisdiction.
01:28:49
Speaker 1: Yeah.
01:28:49
Speaker 6: I'm thinking he did that just to take the lesser charge, just so he don't.
01:28:52
Speaker 3: Want to have to deal with the legal.
01:28:53
Speaker 2: The way that you just said, who pleads guilty when they didn't do it, knowing how many black men.
01:28:57
Speaker 1: Don't have- Well, he probably don't want to keep doing the legal shit.
01:29:00
Speaker 5: That's not what we talking about. That's not what we talking about. We're not shooting the bum bail to niggas like that. Niggas plead guilty to the shit that they do because they don't want to go to prison or they want to try to avoid whatever the higher charge would be for going to jail. But like Akeem said, it makes sense. Pleading guilty to a reduced- Sure, that's what you do. When you plead guilty, they make you a deal.
01:29:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, they make you a deal.
01:29:19
Speaker 5: Say, hey, plead guilty to this so we don't hit you with this. And if you go to trial and you get found guilty of this, we're going to hit you with the higher cost. I'm going to hit your head with that ball. That's all I know. You better get clucked with that ball. This is how much I know we friends.
01:29:33
Speaker 1: Because, boy, do you hate on everybody. Everything that I love.
01:29:36
Speaker 3: I'm a truth teller. I'm not a liar.
01:29:38
Speaker 1: A truth teller. I'm just saying you're not telling the truth.
01:29:40
Speaker 3: I'm a truth teller.
01:29:40
Speaker 1: I'm just saying some of that shit is.
01:29:42
Speaker 5: Kind of skewed based off of your opinions of the person.
01:29:45
Speaker 3: People can't change.
01:29:47
Speaker 1: He did it. He did it.
01:29:49
Speaker 5: No, people can change.
01:29:51
Speaker 3: No, I believe people can change.
01:29:52
Speaker 1: All right, so watch this. And not to say that that's wrong or right.
01:29:55
Speaker 3: Would you rather have been that nigga or a woman? Damn if I do, damn if I don't.
01:29:59
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. No, I don't know. I'd rather he kept his answer. If it was a.
01:30:04
Speaker 3: Woman, oh, oh.
01:30:05
Speaker 1: I'll break it loose.
01:30:06
Speaker 5: There's plenty of niggas who done got their ass whooped who you sort.
01:30:10
Speaker 3: Of killing somebody. He wasn't on the receiving end of that ass whooping. Yeah, no. What you mean? Who, Chris? And that's the way it's supposed to be, man.
01:30:17
Speaker 1: He should have won. Self-defense is not assault.
01:30:19
Speaker 3: Well, maybe it wasn't. What are we missing? Chris might have been the aggressor.
01:30:24
Speaker 1: Of course! That's why you get charged with things.
01:30:27
Speaker 5: But the one thing I will say is that the other dude was a producer. So he's being denied a chance to exist in society. It's not about what you know, it's about what you prove.
01:30:35
Speaker 3: Thank you.
01:30:35
Speaker 5: Which is exactly why you plead guilty, because you know there's enough evidence for me to look crazy.
01:30:40
Speaker 1: So let me just take this shit.
01:30:41
Speaker 3: Trying to sue this person or take them to court. Which has nothing to do with what I did. Let's say I hit the nigga, bro. Like, just, I knocked the nigga out.
01:30:47
Speaker 1: John, you, all right. All right. Last topic, last topic. Goddamn. Jesus.
01:30:51
Speaker 3: All right.
01:30:54
Speaker 2: Macklemore was removed from the Ed Sheeran tour after free Palestine comments. There's a lot that's been said about this since then. Ed Sheeran did do a Instagram statement where he clarified that Macklemore's contracts were with the tour promoters, not him. He later went on to express that he would hope that he and Macklemore could still build a bridge within their relationship. And said that he was appalled by the hurt caused by the Israel-Palestine conflict and expressed sadness over the suffering on both sides.
01:31:32
Speaker 1: He also then went forward to express how.
01:31:35
Speaker 2: Well, Macklemore pretty much shared all of the inside conversations that were happening with Robert Kraft. Then Robert Kraft went to the other stadium owners and was like, don't let Disney perform in your stadiums. Since then, all the openers have dropped out. We now have just Ed Sheeran by himself on this tour.
01:31:54
Speaker 3: With his guitar.
01:31:54
Speaker 1: With his guitar.
01:31:56
Speaker 2: And he does a little thing too where he makes the beats live on stage too, right?
01:31:59
Speaker 1: He does that.
01:32:01
Speaker 2: Pink had to explain for herself where she quoted Awful. Fans bought tickets to see Ed Sheeran sing last night in New Jersey, not to be ambushed by Macklemore's anti-Israel propaganda. And that's kind of what I was saying earlier. Free Palestine isn't anti-Israel. Like, we could want people to be safe, and we ain't talking about what the fuck is.
01:32:25
Speaker 1: Fuck it.
01:32:26
Speaker 5: Well, the technology has been injected into everybody now.
01:32:29
Speaker 2: Which is what she further went to say, and this is where I want to go into this conversation, and also how we decide where we want to align ourselves publicly... and be on the right side of history or not. We talked about Ms.
01:32:39
Speaker 1: Rachel a couple weeks ago. I love Ms. Rachel. Hello.
01:32:42
Speaker 3: I love you.
01:32:43
Speaker 1: No, not Rachel.
01:32:45
Speaker 4: Ms.
01:32:45
Speaker 3: Rachel.
01:32:45
Speaker 5: Ms.
01:32:45
Speaker 3: Rachel is on it.
01:32:46
Speaker 4: Ms.
01:32:47
Speaker 3: Rachel is on it. Ms.
01:32:48
Speaker 1: Rachel going live now.
01:32:49
Speaker 3: All the white Rachels. All the white Rachels.
01:32:51
Speaker 5: Ms.
01:32:51
Speaker 3: Rachel is invited to every motherfucking cookout.
01:32:54
Speaker 1: Period.
01:32:55
Speaker 3: That's what's going on.
01:32:55
Speaker 2: Hello.
01:32:56
Speaker 3: Ms. Rachel. Hey, I'm cooking potato salad.
01:33:00
Speaker 1: We got mayonnaise. You cooking potato salad?
01:33:03
Speaker 5: Can't let her make it. Do white people eat warm potato salad, though?
01:33:08
Speaker 1: I don't know how they put raisins in it.
01:33:11
Speaker 5: I put whatever you want in this potato salad.
01:33:14
Speaker 3: You come to my house. We got unsweetened tea.
01:33:18
Speaker 1: All that. They do like it unsweetened.
01:33:20
Speaker 3: Yeah.
01:33:21
Speaker 1: You put them out of sugar, you won't. It's so nasty.
01:33:22
Speaker 3: You do what you want to do.
01:33:23
Speaker 2: Well, Pink later explained that she did not object to Macklemore's call for a free Palestine, but said, I have never asked for another artist to be silenced, and I'm not asking now.
01:33:33
Speaker 1: I don't need anyone fired, and I don't need a refund. Well, Mitch, you mentioned that. Pick a side.
01:33:39
Speaker 2: What I need is to be able to say, as a Jewish mom, that scared me. And it scared people I love without being told our fear is just propaganda and without being told I'm somehow cool with genocide.
01:33:53
Speaker 1: Because I noticed?
01:33:56
Speaker 2: Now, this is loaded because we did also see and we talked about M.I.A. She recently got removed from Kid Cudi's tour. for speaking out in, she's pro-Trump, right?
01:34:10
Speaker 1: What was her stance?
01:34:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, I don't know, I think she's gone mega-conservative.
01:34:14
Speaker 2: She's gone mega-conservative, and so Kid Cudi recently removed her off the tour. Now, that came with a conversation. Prior to going on tour, she was told, do not bring that politics shit on this stage, or you will be removed.
01:34:29
Speaker 1: This was not discussed prior.
01:34:32
Speaker 3: I get it, I get it.
01:34:33
Speaker 1: This was not discussed prior.
01:34:34
Speaker 2: Now, in a lot of your music, or especially how you're positioning yourself on social media, which is why the outrage is going to have one group mad and another group like, oh, but I like what he's saying. How do we, or how would you align musically on a tour with someone who is a different political person? And I say that because you know, and I'm pointing to A. King, I'm friends currently with people who it's becoming harder to be friends with.
01:35:04
Speaker 1: Because of where they align politically.
01:35:06
Speaker 2: I recently found myself completely cutting off a friendship because it just got too far.
01:35:11
Speaker 1: How can I look at you.
01:35:12
Speaker 2: As a friend or believe we're aligned or that you care about my wellbeing when politically you align elsewhere? Now with Palestine and Israel, we talked about it. It's been a talking point for the midterms. It's going to be a main talking point coming to the 2028 election. Where do you align or how do you take what's happened with this Ed Sheeran tour and how would you resolve this?
01:35:39
Speaker 1: Two or three things.
01:35:40
Speaker 3: Number one, ignorance is bliss.
01:35:41
Speaker 2: And?
01:35:42
Speaker 3: I know what I know and that's all I know.
01:35:44
Speaker 5: If I don't know about it, I don't speak about it, I shit my fucking mouth.
01:35:46
Speaker 1: Okay.
01:35:47
Speaker 3: Right?
01:35:47
Speaker 5: I don't pretend to know or if I don't have knowledge or some type of source that I can cite or things that are like, you know what I'm saying, reputable to what I'm saying. Right.
01:35:57
Speaker 3: Two. Two. I don't listen to people, I listen to their actions. Your friend, you saying, how can I know that you're gonna care for me, boom, boom, boom, boom.
01:36:08
Speaker 5: People say shit all the time and sometimes they lack the knowledge or sometimes they change perspectives.
01:36:13
Speaker 1: Or When they gain knowledge.
01:36:14
Speaker 3: You feel what I'm saying?
01:36:15
Speaker 5: And so it's like, say what you're going to say, and this shit sounds dumb and stupid, and I got friends that say shit that I disagree with all the time. But I genuinely watch your actions towards me as a friend. And so, like, I can sit here and be like, oh, we could do Chris Brown there, Chris Brown there, or this person this, or this person that. But it's like, I watch your actions as a person, and that's what's dictating if I'm going to fuck with you or not. This is a great person, we just don't agree on certain shit.
01:36:37
Speaker 3: And I'm not mad that your perspective is different.
01:36:40
Speaker 5: It's just like, He does no wrong in my eyes when it's like he's treating people the right way.
01:36:45
Speaker 3: He's doing this.
01:36:46
Speaker 5: He can have an opposing opinion or feel different about something, but that doesn't mean that like, and it's, I had some of my friends say some fucked up stuff.
01:36:52
Speaker 3: And I'm like, I need to stop fucking with you.
01:36:55
Speaker 2: And Ed Sheeran did go to Robert Kraft's, like they're friends. But I think since then, if I'm not mistaken, he did donate, right?
01:37:02
Speaker 1: To Palestinian efforts?
01:37:03
Speaker 5: Yes, he did.
01:37:05
Speaker 3: Robert Kraft agreed to match.
01:37:07
Speaker 1: No, no, no. He said, that nigga can do it. I'm not matching it. No, no, no. I don't believe Robert. Look that up. Robert Kraft did not agree to donate.
01:37:14
Speaker 3: No, he did.
01:37:15
Speaker 1: That's what he said in the statement. I need debt. I think you read it wrong.
01:37:19
Speaker 2: I think Ed Sheeran asked, could you match these efforts? And Robert Kraft said, you can... Do it, but he's not matching.
01:37:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, he committed $ 2 million for humanitarian aid. No, no, no, Robert Kraft.
01:37:33
Speaker 5: New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft committed $ 2 million for humanitarian aid in the Middle East after Ed Sheeran asked him to match the singer's own $ 2 million contribution. Robert Kraft is using that donation as a way to paper over.
01:37:46
Speaker 3: You know what's crazy?
01:37:48
Speaker 5: It was going to cost him probably that much to get him to not have those people let Macklemore perform at those stadiums.
01:37:54
Speaker 1: And now you're still.
01:37:55
Speaker 5: Coming out of the money like, Because I'm creating jobs by having people perform here, and they're saying none of my openness can perform.
01:38:01
Speaker 1: But the thing is, he was kicked off that tour, but the money was still guaranteed.
01:38:05
Speaker 3: My money is guaranteed. Rob Markman, Jr.: Oh, so they didn't care that- Rob Markman, Jr.
01:38:10
Speaker 1: Kick me off this bitch. Rob Markman, Jr.
01:38:11
Speaker 3: They just didn't want the presence and the messaging. Rob Markman, Jr.: Yeah, it's like- Rob Markman, Jr.: Did that mean the messaging is.
01:38:14
Speaker 1: Way more impactful?
01:38:15
Speaker 3: Rob Markman, Jr.
01:38:15
Speaker 5: It goes against certain shit for us and for our agenda, or what we believe in.
01:38:20
Speaker 3: And so it's like, don't let him perform here. Well, mister, I'm still getting paid.
01:38:25
Speaker 5: Now at base level, I can just sit back, kick my fucking feet up, and still get X amount of thousand dollars for this show.
01:38:32
Speaker 1: By the way, and it wasn't for this.
01:38:34
Speaker 2: So the $ 2 million pledge that's being discussed, according to Robert Kraft, he said that Ed Sheeran asked him to donate $ 2 million to aid. Kraft stated that Ed Sheeran had already called him to commit $ 2 million to METCH, Sharon's own donation for aid. Kraft said that this arrangement happened before Macklemore issued his public challenge.
01:38:55
Speaker 1: So this allegedly was done.
01:38:56
Speaker 6: And you know the problem in that? You know the problem in that right there? They both have two different positions they just searched.
01:39:02
Speaker 3: 100%.
01:39:02
Speaker 5: And they got one. AI chatbot one, AI chatbot two that they're arguing with. See how the chatbots that you're throwing at us?
01:39:09
Speaker 2: Well, no, it says that Robert Kraft also pledged a $ 2 million donation for humanitarian aid in the region, which is what you said, but in the region may not be for Palestinians.
01:39:18
Speaker 3: We don't know.
01:39:18
Speaker 1: The fucking chatbots are telling us bullshit. There's no way that.
01:39:21
Speaker 2: You say someone can't be at your stadium. for saying free Palestine and then you're giving aid to Palestine.
01:39:27
Speaker 1: They said in the region. Guess what else is in the region of Palestine? Israel.
01:39:31
Speaker 3: It's the region. That's the jump rope. Gotta be careful.
01:39:33
Speaker 1: That is the excuse that you use. You gotta read. It says region. It doesn't say the Palestinian aid or effort. No, it's not the chat bot.
01:39:38
Speaker 3: It says.
01:39:49
Speaker 1: In the region. And so that's what I say all the time.
01:39:52
Speaker 2: Like, when I'm in the comments goddamn arguing with motherfuckers, I'm like, did y'all motherfuckers not listen?
01:39:57
Speaker 1: Like, no, they don't listen. But also, aside from listening, right? Comprehension.
01:40:03
Speaker 2: Like, So, yes, what you read is correct. But then if you comprehend what's also being told to us, the humanitarian aid went to the region.
01:40:12
Speaker 1: Well, the war is happening in the region.
01:40:14
Speaker 5: The point isn't really the point is that he's the craft is going to do that to make it seem like he's a reasonable person.
01:40:20
Speaker 3: Like, oh, I'm not against those people.
01:40:22
Speaker 5: I just I don't have a problem with those people because I'm willing to donate money to the region. Like the point is that he wants to seem like he doesn't. Oh, by the way, Robert Klatt is going on.
01:40:32
Speaker 2: From TheIntercept.com, Robert Kraft claims his donations help Palestinians. Turns out he's funding Friends of the Idea.
01:40:39
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
01:40:40
Speaker 5: He's trying to play both sides of it to try to seem like he's a reasonable person in saying this.
01:40:45
Speaker 3: Also, the other part where he's full of shit is that he says that.
01:40:49
Speaker 5: He called Ed Sheeran and wanted Macklemore kicked off the tour based off Macklemore's past actions. The past actions that he's talking about is in 2015, 2016, Macklemore went on stage and.
01:41:00
Speaker 3: He had what Jewish people consider anti-Semitic.
01:41:05
Speaker 5: He had a big nose and he had his costume on and he was doing his song.
01:41:09
Speaker 3: And so they figured that that's anti-Semitic.
01:41:11
Speaker 5: The reason Kraft is full of shit is because if you felt a way about that that Macklemore did 10 years ago, you would have been told Ed Sheeran, you can't.
01:41:20
Speaker 3: Come to my stadium with him. The only reason you're saying- Before the Jersey thing, yep.
01:41:24
Speaker 5: The only reason you're saying this now is because it's loud. He said, free Palestine. And now it's like, well, I don't want to seem like I'm against Palestinians and I can use that shit that he did 10 years ago as my reason for I don't want this guy here.
01:41:37
Speaker 2: All I know is even though y'all are erasing our history, there's going to be a lot.
01:41:41
Speaker 1: Of people on the wrong side.
01:41:42
Speaker 3: I would hope people feel the same way. And I feel like Jews or white people who are Jews can connect to how we feel about slavery when a lot of this shit is being done. That never happened.
01:41:53
Speaker 1: That didn't happen.
01:41:56
Speaker 3: What are you talking about? What slavery?
01:42:00
Speaker 5: When it seems like we're going too far or doing too much, or this is offensive, that's offensive, and it's like, oh, get over it. And then it's kind of like, well, you know? Because we have a lot of shit that we want to say. When we feel like we've been discriminated against or shit is racial or X, Y, and Z, And sometimes as black people, I'm going to tell you black people, as a black person, everything is not a fucking attack. Like some shit is blatant disrespect or some shit like, you know, we know when people playing with us or we know what the fuck it is. Sometimes the world is a, we just lack the knowledge or we lack the mental, you know, fortitude and capacity to like understand certain shit.
01:42:43
Speaker 3: And everything ain't an attack on your black ass. Like, let's just be honest. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Mandy would say that. Black man to black man, black woman. What would I say? There's a lot of undiagnosed people out here.
01:42:53
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
01:42:53
Speaker 3: We're having discourse.
01:42:54
Speaker 1: There's a lot of undiagnosed people out here.
01:42:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
01:42:57
Speaker 5: But also, in the same light, and speaking on this situation, everything isn't an attack because you're taking up for something else.
01:43:06
Speaker 1: Something else. I know.
01:43:07
Speaker 3: I'm not attacking you.
01:43:08
Speaker 5: I said I like waffles. Doesn't mean I hate pancakes. I don't hate y'all, but something can be wrong and not right. and I still don't hate you or want X, Y, Z, and everything. Somebody was saying, Pink was saying, it scared me and it scared such, such, such. Imagine when, was it Nat Turner? Got free and a slave master.
01:43:34
Speaker 3: Was like, this nigga is scaring us. Yeah, that's... Well, nigga, you got us... You know what I'm saying? You should be scared.
01:43:41
Speaker 5: You got like, oh, it's scaring me that they're getting loose and they could possibly.
01:43:45
Speaker 1: Do some damage.
01:43:46
Speaker 4: Oh.
01:43:47
Speaker 3: God forbid. The people who you make slaves and beat and oppress are mad at you now.
01:43:51
Speaker 1: Imagine that. And most of it.
01:43:53
Speaker 5: So let's not speak about Nat Turner. Let's just speak about the people who just wanted to break free to get away.
01:43:58
Speaker 1: They just want to live.
01:43:59
Speaker 3: I don't want to hurt y'all.
01:43:59
Speaker 1: These babies just want to live. I just want to take my kids. I just want to fucking go.
01:44:03
Speaker 3: Imagine the people who were on the Underground Railroad.
01:44:05
Speaker 5: It never said Harriet Tubman killed people, revolted. or nothing like that. Like she did start.
01:44:10
Speaker 2: He bring up, he says all the time, would you be a nigga if Harriet told me to shoot?
01:44:14
Speaker 3: Look in the mirror.
01:44:15
Speaker 1: Look in the mirror.
01:44:16
Speaker 5: No, I'm not saying that she revolted and just, she got free, she freed people. Yo ass don't wanna come, stay there, fuck it. I'm taking whoever wanna be here, whoever wanna go. but I'm not trying to hurt people in the process. It ain't say she killed no slave males, because if she did, we would have known about it. We would have heard about it. We would have seen it in them books. And it's just like to say, I just want to free these people.
01:44:40
Speaker 3: I don't want to hurt you. Y'all done did us wrong, or y'all have oppressed us, and we don't feel good about none of this shit. I just want to go.
01:44:47
Speaker 5: And because I take these people and I just want to leave, or I just want to free these people, or I think that you should stop doing this to.
01:44:52
Speaker 1: Them, I'm scared. Yeah, that was.
01:44:54
Speaker 3: I don't like that.
01:44:55
Speaker 1: That's the.
01:44:56
Speaker 5: I don't like that. I'm gonna tell you something. I'm gonna say this. I'm one person just for me. I'm gonna account for me. I don't talk shit about people and I can't afford to talk shit about nobody because I know who I am, what I've been through, what I've done, right, wrong.
01:45:10
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
01:45:11
Speaker 5: I'm just unrighteous and I hold myself accountable on all levels, right? I'm not here to talk shit about one person. Black people, we have fucked up ways to... I'm going to hold us accountable first because I'm black and I can do that. We know what the fuck we do. White people, y'all have fucked up ways. Y'all do stuff that we don't like. We do stuff that y'all don't like.
01:45:30
Speaker 3: But I'm not scared of y'all.
01:45:31
Speaker 5: I'm not scared about X, Y, Z. No reason to be per se scared of us. Because sometimes we're marginalized and we're forced to do shit that we don't like to do.
01:45:41
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
01:45:41
Speaker 3: Don't want to have to do. But y'all don't have to.
01:45:43
Speaker 1: Be scared of us.
01:45:44
Speaker 5: And in the same token, it's like Miss Pink. You don't have to be scared because somebody is rallying for kids to stop being killed.
01:45:53
Speaker 1: You literally don't.
01:45:53
Speaker 3: That's the trick knowledge. We're not threatening you. That is the trick knowledge. We don't want anything to happen to you.
01:45:57
Speaker 2: That's what they do. I don't want nothing to happen to nobody. How you became the victim.
01:46:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the game. You all the way in America.
01:46:03
Speaker 3: How you became the victim. And y'all don't clip this shit up on me.
01:46:06
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
01:46:07
Speaker 3: I ain't talking about y'all.
01:46:08
Speaker 1: Oh, wait. You're right. The internet be clipping.
01:46:10
Speaker 5: Don't clip this shit up on me and try to pull no funny style shit on me.
01:46:13
Speaker 3: I don't want kids to die nowhere. Nowhere. I just got done talking about kids being trafficked.
01:46:17
Speaker 1: It's not just.
01:46:19
Speaker 5: your kid is everybody's kids who's at danger of shit happening to them.
01:46:23
Speaker 3: And it's like, you wake up one day and it's like.
01:46:25
Speaker 5: Kids being thrown in fucking cages, like immigrant kids and their parents being separated. I saw this one girl crying, crying her fucking eyeballs out of her head. She wake up one day and she no longer has her mom. And they got her mama gone away and she's locked in a cage.
01:46:38
Speaker 1: Sit down there.
01:46:39
Speaker 3: And she just, I just want my mom. I just want my fucking mama. And so it's like, go beyond that. Let's kill them. Yeah.
01:46:45
Speaker 1: It's crazy.
01:46:46
Speaker 3: What?
01:46:46
Speaker 1: It's crazy.
01:46:48
Speaker 5: The world, and it's not just one group of people. It's not just white people. It's not just black people anymore. It's not just Jewish people.
01:46:55
Speaker 1: It's not just... It's every fucking body. It's all y'all. It's all of us.
01:47:00
Speaker 3: We, collectively, all of God's children, we fucked up.
01:47:05
Speaker 5: And we need help, right? And we digging. We digging, whether it's socially, whether it's on a human.
01:47:12
Speaker 3: We digging.

01:47:14
Speaker 5: Mentally, emotionally, we digging ourselves into some fucking holes that we're not going to be able.

01:47:50
Speaker 1: Because she had them.
01:47:51
Speaker 3: 36 inches.
01:48:02
Speaker 1: Right, right, right. Who made that booty hole?
01:48:05

00:00:45

00:00:45
Speaker 2: Welcome to another episode of Selective Ignorance Podcast with.
00:00:49
Speaker 1: Me, your host, Mandi B. And you already know I am with my guys.
00:00:53
Speaker 2: We are getting into all of the ignorant things that crossed our mind across the last week or so. And then up first, and this is America, Converse has apologized after facing backlash over an image from his Chuck 70 campaign featuring K-pop star Karina.
00:01:10
Speaker 1: Now, is this just another we're finding a distraction here?
00:01:13
Speaker 3: Nope.
00:01:13
Speaker 1: Or do we have a reason to be upset?
00:01:15
Speaker 3: Yep.
00:01:16
Speaker 2: Then Anthropic CEO warns that AI could take over the internet in the next six months.
00:01:20
Speaker 1: What does this mean?
00:01:22
Speaker 2: And are we really in fear of the robot takeover? Are we really a part of the problem here? And if so, are you pro-robot or not?
00:01:31
Speaker 3: Autobots.
00:01:32
Speaker 1: Then we are getting into celebrities say the darndest things.
00:01:35
Speaker 2: Chris Brown calls out Representative Vinton Jones after he apologized to black women for honoring Chris with a congressional record of recognition presented by Jasmine Crockett during their Texas stops. Y'all know I am all for Christopher Maurice Brown. So if you're ready for a bias take, you are.
00:01:53
Speaker 1: Getting it from me.
00:01:55
Speaker 2: But we're going to get into Don Lemon, who says... and questions, do black men get a second chance?
00:02:02
Speaker 3: Not really.
00:02:02
Speaker 1: Specifically here in America. I think that that's going to be an interesting conversation.
00:02:07
Speaker 2: Then Macklemore has been removed from Ed Sheeran's tour after Free Palestine comments. How far do we go in protecting our artists who are on the right side of history while also possibly trying to get money out of the pockets of men like Robert Kraft, who clearly are pro-genocide? And she could have just stayed out of that, but we're going to get into all of that.
00:02:30
Speaker 1: Nothing to do with her, but we'll get to that. I wish Pink stayed as R & B Pink.
00:02:35
Speaker 2: I don't know why she didn't left the culture, but we do not accept her at the cookout anymore. And then would you be mad if your friend played R. Kelly music around you? Mona Leo didn't seem pleased during a recent stream.
00:02:45
Speaker 1: We're getting into all the things, and we have a very special guest this week. Getting into all the things.
00:02:53
Speaker 2: So before I sit here and give y'all the niggas y'all already know that y'all hear from every week, my super producer and my co-host, we are presenting an artiste performer who is, by the time you hear this, literally starting tour. You start tour this week, goddamn, right?
00:03:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, eight days. In eight days, y'all, we.
00:03:14
Speaker 2: Are joined by the illustrious The talented Akeem Ali.
00:03:19
Speaker 3: Hello. Thank you, thank you. Yeah, give me some adjectives. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Roll it. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:03:25
Speaker 1: Roll it, roll it, roll it, roll it.
00:03:26
Speaker 4: Roll it.
00:03:26
Speaker 1: I'm really glad to have you. Thank you, thank you.
00:03:28
Speaker 2: I will say, as one of the newer artists taking over the world, I'm going to say, you have been one of the artists, after meeting you this week, that I told people, I just got to do your visualizer, and I'm like, yeah, he was in the room. Everybody knows who the fuck you are. Like, my friend who doesn't know anybody, y'all know Crystal.
00:03:46
Speaker 3: Don't know music.
00:03:48
Speaker 1: She said she knew you. My partner knows you. It was like, everybody know you. And I love that. Thank you. I love that you are reaching the people. And everyone had nothing but good things to say about you and your name. You know what's happening. You never said you knew.
00:04:03
Speaker 3: You said you met me.
00:04:03
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:04:04
Speaker 4: You never said you knew.
00:04:05
Speaker 1: I know the name.
00:04:07
Speaker 3: I didn't know you.
00:04:08
Speaker 1: First of all, can I share?
00:04:10
Speaker 3: She's not on the album.
00:04:11
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
00:04:12
Speaker 3: Oh, wait. She not on the album.
00:04:13
Speaker 1: I'm ready to be on it though.
00:04:15
Speaker 2: But let me tell you, so definitely knew who you were. That's why I didn't have to ask, who are you in the room of a lot of people, right? And when I say I became the biggest fan with your interaction that I saw in that room.
00:04:29
Speaker 1: So I'm at a room.
00:04:31
Speaker 3: What room?
00:04:31
Speaker 5: Oh.
00:04:32
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:04:33
Speaker 3: Like the first initial greeting.
00:04:35
Speaker 1: I think it was like the second greeting where everyone was like introducing themselves kind of.
00:04:40
Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
00:04:40
Speaker 5: Okay.
00:04:41
Speaker 3: Well, I guess you can't say where we were or what we were doing.
00:04:44
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no.
00:04:44
Speaker 2: I'm not going to say where we were or what we were doing, but we were in a room and there was a lot of us, a lot of our peers in the room, right?
00:04:48
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:04:49
Speaker 2: And so everyone's kind of introducing themselves, but you also see, like, I know who you are.
00:04:53
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of you.
00:04:53
Speaker 3: I like you.
00:04:54
Speaker 1: I like you. And Regine is like.
00:04:58
Speaker 3: I.
00:05:00
Speaker 1: Know you, but what do you do? What are you doing? He wouldn't say what he did.
00:05:03
Speaker 2: I was like, he was like, yeah, you probably know me. She's like, yeah, I seen you on the internet. I just saw you somewhere.
00:05:08
Speaker 1: You're somewhere. I just seen you. And you, you, you know, let her know. She was like, yes, that's you. You have the song with, with Sierra.
00:05:16
Speaker 2: And he was like, but before I think we got there, you expressed that you are an artist and you said it like, yo daddy right here, I'm right here.
00:05:26
Speaker 1: And I was like, I know that's motherfucking right. I love that. I was like, okay. I like that. Because, yeah, y'all know, if y'all know what a podcaster is, when I go into a room, I'm Joe Budden right here.
00:05:41
Speaker 3: Oprah right here.
00:05:43
Speaker 1: I'm right here, motherfucker.
00:05:45
Speaker 2: Just know that's how I look at myself. And I just love that.
00:05:49
Speaker 1: I love that. So I'm excited for you to join in on the conversation. We're going to talk about what you got going on. And thank you for making a millennial friendly TikTok dance.
00:05:58
Speaker 3: Thank you.
00:05:59
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. It wasn't, it wasn't.
00:06:01
Speaker 3: Doing too much.
00:06:04
Speaker 5: It's a dance that you don't need to like stretch before or do Pilates.
00:06:07
Speaker 3: You don't got to have like rhythm and shit.
00:06:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Me, no rhythm. Shout out to my white mama. Well, y'all, you already know we got the OG pot legend in the building, A-King.
00:06:20
Speaker 3: What it do? What's shaking? What's happening, everybody? What's good?
00:06:23
Speaker 2: By the way, if he gets a little silent midway through, it's because he has a job and will have to take a call.
00:06:27
Speaker 3: J-O-B. You're dropping a bomb on this man. Listen, listen. A.
00:06:32
Speaker 2: King, you about to sign for that bill or try to go for that bill that Bernie just dropped, huh?
00:06:38
Speaker 3: What's that?
00:06:39
Speaker 1: 32-hour work week. For the working man.
00:06:42
Speaker 3: You know, Tim Ferriss years ago dropped a book, The 4-Hour Workweek. I think we got to get to that.
00:06:48
Speaker 1: All right.
00:06:48
Speaker 3: That's for the creative, though. When you're creative, you could do a whole week's work in four hours. If you focus. I'm not talking about the doctors.
00:06:57
Speaker 1: I think we should keep 40. You think we should keep 40? Hell yeah.
00:07:00
Speaker 3: Why? Some people need to be busy? Yes, because we got so many distractions. Fair.
00:07:05
Speaker 5: We got so much shit going on now. Like, when we actually worked for a living, yes. dumb it down to 32. The internet, keep up. We need 48.
00:07:14
Speaker 3: You know what?
00:07:15
Speaker 1: We need 48.
00:07:16
Speaker 5: We need to be busy so we're not so into, like we're getting so engulfed in lights.
00:07:21
Speaker 3: So here's my question though.
00:07:22
Speaker 5: Is it better to, because that 48 means that we're going to make room for the fuckery. Should we eliminate the space and make it so that We're not making space for the fuckery.
00:07:33
Speaker 1: We're just going to be like, no, focus on the shit you got to do.
00:07:37
Speaker 3: With 48 hours, we're making room for the fuckery?
00:07:39
Speaker 5: Well, I'm saying instead of giving people like, you're saying we're distracted, right? And like people are distracted.
00:07:44
Speaker 1: With their phones.
00:07:45
Speaker 3: With their phones and all kinds of other stuff.
00:07:47
Speaker 5: If we gave them less time for the distraction, I guess, would that help or hurt the productivity? If we actually gave them a lot of time to have the fuckery that distracts them as opposed to being like, no, here's this small time.
00:07:59
Speaker 3: The more fuckery they have, the less they want to work. Ooh. You know what I'm saying?
00:08:03
Speaker 5: Because that's what got us to this point. It's like, we're in the internet. We're seeing, seeing, seeing, seeing so many options. It's like, I'm going to quit my job.
00:08:10
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? You get to.
00:08:12
Speaker 5: A point where you're like, why am I even working? I'm like, why do they have money and I don't have money? And it's like, everybody's not meant to be an entrepreneur. We do need people working.
00:08:21
Speaker 2: But it's also why there's universities now putting in influencer and YouTuber classes teaching people how to make, because there's also just a shift in careers. And you can't be mad at that because when we're, and we're going to get into talking about AI, there's jobs that are literally becoming obsolete because of the fuckery, essentially.
00:08:41
Speaker 1: Like, I ain't going to lie. I say it all the time. My space left at a terrible time because we were all coders at one point.
00:08:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're getting some trash talking on. HTML.
00:08:49
Speaker 1: Oh, no, no. HTML down, baby. I had the glitter.
00:08:52
Speaker 3: Falling from my face.
00:08:54
Speaker 1: With Thuggish Ruggish Bone playing in the background.
00:08:56
Speaker 2: I had a little gangbanger, a little girl emoji thingies before it was really emojis.
00:09:02
Speaker 1: I don't know what they were.
00:09:03
Speaker 3: But what was the affiliation? Well, you know what?
00:09:04
Speaker 2: We're not going to get into that.
00:09:06
Speaker 1: You know what I used to be back in the day. You already know. And I really wasn't.
00:09:12
Speaker 3: I can't even know what she used to say. I'm trying to figure it out. I'm sitting over here like, well. You can't tell.
00:09:16
Speaker 5: You can't tell if the hand say one thing, but the shirt say another.
00:09:20
Speaker 2: No, this was a terrible, the nails say more than, this is a terrible representation of what.
00:09:24
Speaker 3: I used to be. She was the number one employee at Pep Boys changing oil filters.
00:09:28
Speaker 1: Shut your mouth.
00:09:29
Speaker 3: She could have worn a filter hat in LA. You were?
00:09:32
Speaker 1: No, you just, back in my day, like I sold Molly for a stint. I was a drug dealer for a little short of time. You know, I've lived life.
00:09:38
Speaker 6: You know the Fed seized 17 tons of cocaine in Philadelphia?
00:09:43
Speaker 1: Oh, I wasn't pushing coke. No, I'm just saying, 17 tons.
00:09:47
Speaker 3: You saying Philly? Philly, right on the seaport.
00:09:50
Speaker 1: Is that surprising in Philly?
00:09:51
Speaker 3: Two days ago. They got my stash.
00:09:53
Speaker 1: 17 tons. I had that running through there.
00:09:55
Speaker 3: 17 tons. On the shipping containers. Not keys. Tons.
00:10:04
Speaker 2: By the way, because tons is 2,000 pounds per one ton.
00:10:08
Speaker 3: I learned that in school.
00:10:09
Speaker 1: Come on, Florida education.
00:10:10
Speaker 5: Something must be going on on the East Coast, though, because they just had 250 bricks that got seized in New York. The fuck is going on? Northeast has a lot of seizures.
00:10:20
Speaker 1: You know why? Come on, let's not act like we don't know. The ports, baby.

Speaker 1: I have 55 gas chains and I'm going to call the police. We're going to take.
00:12:09
Speaker 3: Some of this.
00:12:10
Speaker 1: Because also, yes, why does he talk so low?
00:12:13
Speaker 3: Speaking of bricks.
00:12:14
Speaker 1: Right.
00:12:15
Speaker 3: Have you ever seen me at the free throw line?
00:12:17
Speaker 1: Right. That is not. Okay, that was funny.
00:12:21
Speaker 3: Don't worry, you'll have plenty of time.
00:12:23
Speaker 1: When you're going.
00:12:24
Speaker 3: I'm like, plenty of time, nigga.
00:12:25
Speaker 1: Like, shit.
00:12:26
Speaker 2: Well, Jai, did you have an ignorant thought or ignorant take or ignorant moment in the last week?
00:12:31
Speaker 1: Talk to me.
00:12:31
Speaker 3: Oh, so, yeah.
00:12:32
Speaker 1: So, earlier this week, we all went out as a family.
00:12:36
Speaker 3: We did. To support our partner in them.
00:12:39
Speaker 1: Yes, Jameela.
00:12:40
Speaker 3: Jameela Bell.
00:12:40
Speaker 1: Jameela, please.
00:12:41
Speaker 3: Jameela, please.
00:12:42
Speaker 1: Went to her screening.
00:12:43
Speaker 3: And you have a.
00:12:46
Speaker 1: What is it called? A cameo?
00:12:48
Speaker 3: A cameo. There we go.
00:12:49
Speaker 1: A cameo in the sketch series. Very good.
00:12:52
Speaker 5: And as we were leaving out, your friend Kiki was with us.
00:12:58
Speaker 1: She was. Happy birthday, Kiki.
00:13:00
Speaker 3: Happy birthday, Kiki.
00:13:01
Speaker 1: Shout out to Kiki.
00:13:02
Speaker 3: Happy birthday.
00:13:03
Speaker 1: And I forget what.
00:13:05
Speaker 3: The exact conversation was about... We were meeting. Oh, yeah, right. We were meeting her significant other. Yes.
00:13:12
Speaker 5: And you referred to this significant other as her partner. And she looked at you like you called this nigga the wildest, most disrespectful name on earth.
00:13:24
Speaker 1: She got so mad.
00:13:24
Speaker 3: She was so mad.
00:13:25
Speaker 1: Don't call that nigga no partner.
00:13:26
Speaker 3: That nigga ain't my partner.
00:13:27
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, shit.
00:13:28
Speaker 2: She was like, I'm not a gay man. You use partner if you're a gay man. And I was like, oh, well, excuse me.
00:13:35
Speaker 5: Well, when she said it, I laughed because I never really thought about it like that. Now, I know that partner is like a popular term. term to use now for significant other. People have various reasons why they don't like girlfriend or boyfriend or whatever.
00:13:47
Speaker 3: The thing is. That's fine.
00:13:48
Speaker 5: But I never thought about the fact that when you say partner, the connotation is that you're talking to a gay person and you're talking about their significant other.
00:13:59
Speaker 3: And maybe for her.
00:13:59
Speaker 1: I think there was a time, though, where that was isolated to....
00:14:07
Speaker 3: That community. I think maybe the 90s or something like that. But now.
00:14:12
Speaker 1: We didn't use water before the games.
00:14:14
Speaker 5: Not only cops and sports players use that shit.
00:14:19
Speaker 6: So even if you're not married in the construct of marriage, going to City Hall or even having an ordained minister marry you, if you live with someone in the same house over a certain amount of years, they call it domestic marriage.
00:14:32
Speaker 1: You know what I think it is?
00:14:33
Speaker 2: I think it's an exhaustion of people with these labels. I think it's a people exhausted by how labels identify who they are, who they're with, what they're doing, how they're doing it.
00:14:48
Speaker 1: And so for me, even her taking it to being like, nah, that's for the gays.
00:14:52
Speaker 2: I was just like, girl, that's your partner because he's your man, that's not your man, but it's your man.
00:14:57
Speaker 1: She literally is like, that's my man, but He's not my man, but that's my man.
00:15:00
Speaker 5: But she would have rather you said, your man would be like, well, he's not my man.
00:15:05
Speaker 1: See, that's your nigga. I'm not going to do all that. So that's your partner.
00:15:07
Speaker 3: Your nigga.
00:15:08
Speaker 1: That's your nigga. Your nigga. But see, no. That's my black and belly.
00:15:14
Speaker 2: I have been checked too many times about referring to my romantic partner is my nigga.
00:15:21
Speaker 1: I'm not, like, that is the thing.
00:15:22
Speaker 3: No, I'm saying, that's what she was.
00:15:23
Speaker 1: Because, you know, I done dated old school niggas. You know, he a little old. He don't want to be called, he's like, don't refer to me as your nigga. No, of course not. It's disrespectful. So I'm not going to say that.
00:15:32
Speaker 2: I'm also, boyfriend is also, I don't know why people don't like me.
00:15:35
Speaker 5: It's like, I don't know, because then it'd be like, you name everything and it'd be like, Oh, is she your partner?
00:15:39
Speaker 1: Stone her. Yeah.
00:15:41
Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
00:15:42
Speaker 1: Them boyfriend is too childish.
00:15:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've heard women say that where it's like, I don't have no boyfriend. I'm 57 and a half years old. I don't got no goddamn boyfriend. I'd be like, all right, fine.
00:15:53
Speaker 3: That's my man. That's what they would say.
00:15:55
Speaker 5: Well, see, back in the day, I got old aunties and shit. So, like, my old aunties, if one of the older aunties had got, like.
00:16:02
Speaker 3: A boyfriend, you know, they would just be like, oh, that's her friend.
00:16:05
Speaker 1: That's my friend. That's a little friend. And I'm like, Well, shit, if I'm cracking, if we together, I don't want to just be your friend.
00:16:12
Speaker 5: I don't walk up and call nobody nothing. I just wait until people say what they want to be.
00:16:17
Speaker 1: Ah, okay. That's fair.
00:16:19
Speaker 5: I got a bad habit of just saying their name. I don't even say this is my. I be like, this is.
00:16:25
Speaker 1: That's so proper. And that's what everybody.
00:16:27
Speaker 3: Keeps telling us.
00:16:28
Speaker 5: You can't assume who they are to me based off if I was with you.
00:16:32
Speaker 3: This is who they are. Like, hey, this is Mandy. and let it just be that.
00:16:40
Speaker 5: You can assume from there or whatever, but she is manning. She can't say she's not manning. That's the one that you can't sit your ass up and lie on. Don't call me that. Are you a witness protection nigga?
00:16:52
Speaker 6: I think that women that are still interested will push the line.
00:16:55
Speaker 3: That's your little girlfriend?
00:16:57
Speaker 1: That's your little girl?
00:17:00
Speaker 2: Can I share a toxic thing that I did do back in my heathen days? I did get flewed out by this guy. And I felt we had been dealing with each other for a while. And when I got brought around his people, his teammates and everybody, he let everybody know I was his friend.
00:17:20
Speaker 1: And so every teammate that slid in my MySpace DMs after that, I talked to them.
00:17:24
Speaker 3: Oh, that's just your friend.
00:17:25
Speaker 1: We're just friends. I completely was like, oh, well, if I'm just your friend, I'm going to talk to you. I was 19, 20. I was younger. You with me.
00:17:35
Speaker 3: I want to know something.
00:17:37
Speaker 1: No, no, it's okay.
00:17:38
Speaker 3: I want to know something. What? Did you fuck any.
00:17:41
Speaker 1: One of the teammates?
00:17:43
Speaker 5: After?
00:17:44
Speaker 1: Just one.
00:17:45
Speaker 2: The other one we ended up being friends with, but I never went and did it. But there was multiple teammates that I ended up talking to. But only one I ended up... And then he ended up seeing us texting in his phone later down the line, and I got caught.
00:17:58
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, you said I was your friend. what team what kind of team sport like football or like no I'm saying like football or basketball.
00:18:05
Speaker 3: I know and he saw you too damn I know.
00:18:08
Speaker 5: Yeah cold world cold world cold world you still fucking with him when you fucked a friend yeah yeah.
00:18:16
Speaker 3: See, so you wanted to do it anyway. You wanted to do it anyway. Because you didn't have a conversation. We weren't exclusive.
00:18:25
Speaker 1: There's no commitment.
00:18:26
Speaker 3: But you assumed because you got offended that he referred to you as.
00:18:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, he referred to me as his friend.
00:18:30
Speaker 3: So if I'm just your friend... You was like, got it, yes, now I get the license.
00:18:34
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, though, that.
00:18:35
Speaker 2: That's where, when you're introducing someone, or if you're a woman and you're with a man, how they introduce you to people sometimes matters.
00:18:43
Speaker 3: No, for sure, because even when he said that, I'm like, if you.
00:18:46
Speaker 1: I'm not that savage anymore.
00:18:48
Speaker 3: I was just sharing... Y'all, women are just... I'm going to get into it when he.
00:18:51
Speaker 1: No, you're right.
00:18:52
Speaker 3: Bro, we lose. But, like, women....
00:18:55
Speaker 6: The species of women was MAGA before MAGA.
00:18:59
Speaker 3: They're from relationships.
00:19:00
Speaker 1: I hope you got him on ice, I'm saying that. Oh yeah, the fire is coming.
00:19:05
Speaker 3: This ain't a red pill, this ain't a blue pill. My time, my time.
00:19:08
Speaker 1: Oh, that's my call.
00:19:09
Speaker 3: Gotta go.
00:19:12
Speaker 2: Akis said, hey, I am only speaking for myself as I sit with these Indian nigglets.
00:19:18
Speaker 3: But here's the thing, right?
00:19:19
Speaker 5: If this is your actual girlfriend or boyfriend, or I'll say for girlfriends, I don't think men care as much as women would necessarily.
00:19:27
Speaker 3: But if you just say.
00:19:28
Speaker 5: Like, oh, I'm introducing this girl, my girlfriend to a group of people and I just call her name. I feel like most men are going to have a conversation about that later. Why you ain't tell them I'm your girl?
00:19:38
Speaker 3: Why you just call me whoop-de-whoop-de-whoop? Why are you not just going to act like I'm not your girl?
00:19:43
Speaker 1: Oh, at 19, I wasn't mature enough to have a conversation.
00:19:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, 19, that was not going to happen.
00:19:46
Speaker 1: I wasn't mature enough back then.
00:19:48
Speaker 3: But also, it's like... what do you want?
00:19:53
Speaker 5: Like, you have to state or say certain things, like, upfront, like, you know we friends in private. Why the hell do I gotta get out in public and be like, we're not friends, we're together.
00:20:03
Speaker 3: And then it's gonna be like, you looking at me like, oh, we together?
00:20:06
Speaker 5: Because I don't know who you fucking, I don't know what you're doing behind my back, so I can't assume and make assumptions about what you have going on. It's like, and if I get out and be like, yeah, this is my girl, you're gonna be like, we're not, now, if I say, this is my friend, when we get in the car, you're gonna be like, so I'm your friend?
00:20:19
Speaker 3: When I say, this is my girl, So are we together now?
00:20:23
Speaker 1: Like, what are we doing? If the conversation hasn't been had, yes. I got my rock. I got my rock.
00:20:31
Speaker 2: If the conversation has not been had, yes. But again, there are women that lack emotional maturity, depending on age, and okay, that's when.
00:20:41
Speaker 3: We respond, nigga.
00:20:42
Speaker 5: And so you knew that you and him was just fucking? Or was he leading you to believe, like, hey?
00:20:48
Speaker 4: No, we.
00:20:49
Speaker 1: We had feelings for each other.
00:20:50
Speaker 3: Okay. But you knew for a fact y'all weren't together.
00:20:53
Speaker 4: Right.
00:20:54
Speaker 3: And did you want to be with him?
00:20:56
Speaker 1: Eh, tricky. Okay, so boom.
00:20:58
Speaker 3: Like, what the fuck?
00:20:59
Speaker 2: So my point, so him getting mad that I slid to the teammates?
00:21:03
Speaker 5: No, but you like, I don't even want to be with you, but now I'm sitting up here mad. I don't want to be with you, but I'm going to fuck your friend.
00:21:10
Speaker 1: Because you ain't saying I'm your girl. Delusion. I know, it's crazy. I was once a woman like that. I'm no longer.
00:21:17
Speaker 3: I've healed. You've healed, right.
00:21:19
Speaker 1: I've healed.
00:21:20
Speaker 3: You talked to the lady.
00:21:21
Speaker 1: I talked to the lady.
00:21:22
Speaker 2: I let men know exactly who I am, who my partners are, and if they want to sit and be a part of my program or not.
00:21:28
Speaker 1: Everything is out in the open.
00:21:29
Speaker 3: Program. Tough word. Tough word.
00:21:32
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
00:21:32
Speaker 3: You feel me?
00:21:33
Speaker 1: You feel me? Program. Come on, man.
00:21:36
Speaker 3: Program. Get it on the floor.
00:21:39
Speaker 1: Let me get a little more. And it's not a strict program. It's fairly loose. It's a program.
00:21:48
Speaker 5: Like, you just know what the fuck going on. You need to know the inner workings. Listen, this is all that this position entails.
00:21:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, hello.
00:21:55
Speaker 3: Are you capable or not of fulfilling the duties?
00:21:58
Speaker 1: Hello.
00:21:58
Speaker 2: And let me tell you, this ain't the AA program. This is the after school program.
00:22:02
Speaker 1: You having a good time over here. A lot of games. A lot of fun. Good times. Field trips and shit.
00:22:08
Speaker 3: Field trips is crazy.
00:22:11
Speaker 2: Before we get into This Is America, I do want to start off with my ignorant take.
00:22:16
Speaker 1: I've been seeing a.
00:22:17
Speaker 2: Lot of comments going against Cardi B. Cardi B, who's been seen celebrating her one-year anniversary of the Am I the Drama album and just being outside because she is A rich bitch, single, outside, doing what she want, living the life.
00:22:33
Speaker 3: No mercy.
00:22:33
Speaker 1: And being a good mama. You know, she's been having the birthdays and all that. That's great.
00:22:38
Speaker 2: She was seen dancing in a club where one of her fans behind her started slapping at her ass. And she swiped that motherfucking hand out the way. For whatever reason, comments are shaming Cardi for doing that.
00:22:54
Speaker 3: For slapping the girl's hand away?
00:22:55
Speaker 1: For slapping the girl's hand away. What are they saying? Oh, I wish I would have screenshotted. Just that, oh, she's so mean. See, she's not a girl's girl. She's literally leaning.
00:23:05
Speaker 2: Into that argument of her swiping the hand away because... who would Cardi be without us? Who would Cardi be without her fans? And I was just like, so I'm reading these comments.
00:23:14
Speaker 3: These are women?
00:23:15
Speaker 1: These are women.
00:23:15
Speaker 3: Okay.
00:23:16
Speaker 1: These are women.
00:23:17
Speaker 3: Okay.
00:23:18
Speaker 1: Oh, I know.
00:23:19
Speaker 2: And so as I'm reading these comments, I'm just thinking of the pure hypocrisy in women wanting our, you know, boundaries.
00:23:32
Speaker 1: Six feet.
00:23:33
Speaker 2: We wouldn't want a man to be slapping our ass while we're dancing with our homegirls. And I've experienced this a lot, I told y'all, especially while I've been on tour, because of my content, our fans, grabbing titties, grabbing ass almost immediately, like wanting us to bend over and it's a lot. Our meet and greets, we be having to be like, please ask first. We've had to come out and like say, hey y'all, y'all can't just, you know.
00:23:58
Speaker 3: Have your way with me. You can't just have your way with me. This bitch got on clothes.
00:24:02
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
00:24:03
Speaker 3: That type of attitude.
00:24:05
Speaker 2: And so I just want women and yes, listen, This has nothing to do with being male-centered at all, but it's about us as women wanting the same respect from other women as we expect men to give us. Like, let's not go to a club, let's not see a pretty girl and just think that we have the right or wherewithal to touch them inappropriately touch their breasts touch their ass hug them too long grind our coochies like we scissoring it is unacceptable and i think as women we need to start looking at other women like if this was a if this was a man would i want him to touch me this way right nine times out of ten it's gonna be no unless it's a man you know that you like that you throw it over no stranger man can touch you like that so i want you to think of that when you hopping in those comments And you're sitting here thinking that Cardi was wrong for swiping an unsolicited hand of a woman away from her ass. No woman deserves to be touched inappropriately anywhere. Don't care where it's at. Mind you, I'm a respectful woman at the goddamn strip club. I'd be asking if I could put that one between a crack.
00:25:09
Speaker 3: No means no, though.
00:25:11
Speaker 1: And no means no.
00:25:12
Speaker 2: And if you've already violated my right to tell you no because you already touching me, Next thing is for.
00:25:19
Speaker 1: Me to swipe your ass away from you.
00:25:20
Speaker 3: Of course.
00:25:21
Speaker 1: And look at you like, bitch, do it again. My body, my choice goes beyond abortion. Hello.
00:25:25
Speaker 5: Like, people still have autonomy just because you have this.
00:25:29
Speaker 3: But, you know, we talk about this nowadays. These parasocial relationships.
00:25:32
Speaker 1: Relationships.
00:25:33
Speaker 5: With like, okay, they've listened to your podcast a million times. They feel like y'all are homegirls and they can just act like that.
00:25:39
Speaker 1: And it's like, bro, don't touch me.
00:25:41
Speaker 4: No.
00:25:41
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what.
00:25:43
Speaker 1: Do you experience this?
00:25:44
Speaker 3: If motherfuckers had 48 hours....
00:25:49
Speaker 5: We have less time to be in the club.
00:25:52
Speaker 1: Wait a second. You want us to have less time? Is that girl at work?
00:25:55
Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
00:25:55
Speaker 1: Here we go. You got to do that. I mean, it makes sense.
00:25:59
Speaker 3: No.
00:25:59
Speaker 1: So, wait. You want just people to work all the time?
00:26:03
Speaker 4: No.
00:26:04
Speaker 3: Okay. I don't want you to work all the time.
00:26:06
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:26:06
Speaker 5: But I feel like dumb in the work week down does not help us. If that girl had to go to work, she probably wouldn't even been in there.
00:26:12
Speaker 1: I'm not playing with you. I'm not playing with you.
00:26:15
Speaker 5: You wouldn't even see no hand. But it's like, no, like, it's no. Like, I don't want you touching me there. I don't want, like, certain stuff going on. Like, for a woman, it's like, she could be on her cycle.
00:26:26
Speaker 3: It's like, motherfucker, move.
00:26:28
Speaker 1: Have you experienced that in meet and greets? Yeah. Yeah? How do you? I had a woman lick my fucking face one time.
00:26:35
Speaker 5: Literally hug me and was just like, her tongue just went, and I was just like, And her husband was like, oh, no, no, she good. And I was like, her husband was like, she good? I ain't gonna say it was her husband, it was her nigga.
00:26:48
Speaker 3: He was like, ah, she good.
00:26:49
Speaker 1: And I was like, what are you doing? She licked your face?
00:26:52
Speaker 7: Oh, no, no, no.
00:26:52
Speaker 1: That's like as violating as someone spitting on you. Like, that's violating.
00:26:58
Speaker 5: I was like, and so my thing is, too, because I'm not like a super, I'm not mean at all, but I do have this thing where, like, I'm working on the thin line between boundary and people being like, just like that, right? Like swiping a hand back. And it's like, that's a boundary. Like, I don't want you touching my ass. Yeah, I used to dance a strip. Like, I don't want you touching it. I don't want anybody touching it no more. Like, I'm not that person no more. I don't feel comfortable doing it. But it's like, when you give that energy, people think that they can do what they want to do. And it's like, he'll understand.
00:27:32
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, bitch.
00:27:34
Speaker 1: I mean, woman, I don't want you like, You know what I'm saying?
00:27:38
Speaker 3: Wow.
00:27:38
Speaker 1: And now her partner like, yeah, we rock like that or whatever.
00:27:42
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:27:42
Speaker 1: Wow. I was just like, I thought you wanted to take a picture. I say that all the time though too.
00:27:48
Speaker 2: And we talk about it like how sometimes if it's like just a lot of people, even if you don't have a good day, you kind of can't be mean though. And like there's a way that it's hard to like tell somebody your boundary while not seeming mean.
00:27:59
Speaker 5: I streamed somebody do this shit one time and I was like, I remember I was at a show doing something. And these girls were like, I think he might've invited me. Mike Ellis invited me. He was doing a comedy show and he was like, man, you dope.
00:28:10
Speaker 1: You know, I want you to come.
00:28:11
Speaker 3: He was in Atlanta. He was in Atlanta. He was like, come and, you know, perform the song and blah, blah, blah. And I did it.
00:28:16
Speaker 5: And I got off stage and we was all backstage and these two girls asked Mike for a picture.
00:28:20
Speaker 1: He was like, no.
00:28:21
Speaker 3: And they was like, damn.
00:28:22
Speaker 5: And I thought he was playing. And he just walked off. And I was like, oh, he really not finna take the fucking picture.
00:28:26
Speaker 3: And I was at a show that I was hosting not too long ago.
00:28:30
Speaker 5: And this one girl, she took a picture. Cause I was sitting on the edge of the stage and letting people come up and just take the picture.
00:28:34
Speaker 3: Right. She take a picture and she was.
00:28:36
Speaker 1: Like, I ain't like it. Can I get another one?
00:28:38
Speaker 5: And I'm like, okay. And then they'll come back and be like, that one was ugly. I'm like, well, the camera is only showing you who you are.
00:28:42
Speaker 3: So I'm like, but I took a picture anyway.
00:28:45
Speaker 1: I took a picture.
00:28:46
Speaker 5: And so she didn't got like three pictures at this point. Everybody else coming up, get one picture and they walk off.
00:28:50
Speaker 3: They understand. We get outside in the parking lot. Can I have another picture? I was like, no. I was like, I'm tired. And y'all don't understand that.
00:28:59
Speaker 5: I do get overwhelmed, but I can't give that to y'all because you start feeling that energy. And I'm like, I'm very understanding. But I was like, no, you literally just got three pictures when we was inside.
00:29:07
Speaker 3: She was like, you right, you right. She was like, but you showed up. I was like.
00:29:13
Speaker 5: Stone her literally like I'm like you know how Mr.
00:29:18
Speaker 7: Did see yeah yeah yeah listen and when I tell you what's what's funny about it doesn't matter how you even say no I will say that's the number one thing uh I just we just had to give advice for people in their 30s and I said by 30 you should know how to receive no yes There's too many people that.
00:29:36
Speaker 1: Take no insulting, or no is disrespect, or no is offensive.
00:29:40
Speaker 2: And it's just like, you want to be able to say no to.
00:29:42
Speaker 3: Somebody, right?
00:29:42
Speaker 5: I feel like the approach does matter. Because I had to tell her, I didn't say it like that. When she asked to take the picture, I was like, no, I'm kind of tired. Like, I don't feel like it.
00:29:50
Speaker 3: She was like, because they'll ask you, they'll be like, you feel like taking another picture?
00:29:53
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm kind of tired.
00:29:54
Speaker 3: I ain't going to lie.
00:29:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, but for someone who, like, lacks emotional intelligence, and now that no is a rejection, like, sometimes it doesn't matter how.
00:30:01
Speaker 3: You say it.
00:30:01
Speaker 1: Yes, you could say it rude as fuck. Like, nah, motherfucker. Right.
00:30:05
Speaker 2: You could say it like that, but for someone who doesn't know how to receive no, they could still take it.
00:30:08
Speaker 5: I thought Mike was tripping that time he didn't take that picture, but I was like, this nigga, I was like, I get it.
00:30:12
Speaker 1: This nigga is tired. And also, I think he's been famous for as long as I've been alive. Yeah, you should have been that picture.
00:30:18
Speaker 3: You should have been that picture.
00:30:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:30:22
Speaker 3: I done put out a million movies.
00:30:23
Speaker 1: Step aside the TV again.
00:30:24
Speaker 3: Right.
00:30:25
Speaker 1: Something, shit.
00:30:26
Speaker 5: Well, Anthony Mackie is notorious for that, and he actually gets a bad rap for that. People talk shit about Anthony Mackie. He's still Captain America, though.
00:30:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know.
00:30:39
Speaker 2: For me, it's one of those things that is one of the best experiences, I think. in being like, especially overseas, and people wanting to take a picture and wanting to like, just, hey, I listen.
00:30:51
Speaker 1: To you every week. Like, I'm never gonna, I don't think I'll ever tell someone no.
00:30:56
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm lying.
00:30:57
Speaker 1: I'm lying. I did say no at Hedo. Because, bro, I'm naked. Yeah, you can't do that.
00:31:02
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:31:03
Speaker 1: At the new beach in a.
00:31:04
Speaker 2: Naked resort, bro, you can't tell me you're just gonna get me shoulders up.
00:31:07
Speaker 1: I'm not taking a picture naked. when I ain't got no clothes on. That's smart, though.
00:31:12
Speaker 3: That is smart.
00:31:13
Speaker 1: That's smart.
00:31:14
Speaker 3: Like, we all out here naked. Everybody naked.
00:31:17
Speaker 1: It ain't just you, it's me, too. So, look. My mother be like, can I get a picture? Yeah, you know. This me and Mandy right here. I just be doing my thing. We all that, man. We was on vacation somewhere crazy.
00:31:29
Speaker 3: That's crazy. They be the whole OnlyFans. You see?
00:31:33
Speaker 1: Off of one photo.
00:31:34
Speaker 2: I don't need the circumference of my areolas out in the world like that.
00:31:38
Speaker 1: Do not. That's fair. You feel me?
00:31:39
Speaker 2: All right, well, let's get into This Is America. All right, so Converse has apologized after facing backlash over the image.
00:31:49
Speaker 1: Now, you put this in the chat, or A. King put this in the chat? I put this in the chat. You put this in the chat. Yeah, I put this in the chat.
00:31:53
Speaker 2: You want to talk about what the backlash has came. Basically, it is a K-pop star.
00:31:58
Speaker 1: The image was cropped later.
00:32:00
Speaker 3: I have seen the full image. Yeah, there's a video.
00:32:02
Speaker 5: The image that's going around that people are mad about is a cropped screenshot from the video, from the full ad.
00:32:07
Speaker 1: The full video, from the full ad.
00:32:08
Speaker 2: If you want to pull it up just so that we can reference it as well. If you can make that a little bigger. Now, there were multiple videos.
00:32:15
Speaker 5: Was it a video and this was just a picture from it?
00:32:17
Speaker 3: Yes.
00:32:18
Speaker 5: It's a video ad and this is a screenshot from the video. I think the video ends like this.
00:32:23
Speaker 2: Now, if you can, Dee, can you search full image Converse ad? You'll be able to see the full image of her. I do also want to add that what I saw was Converse's create an AI apology of this ad.
00:32:37
Speaker 1: Did you see that?
00:32:38
Speaker 3: I heard the apology. I didn't realize it was an AI apology.
00:32:41
Speaker 1: It's a white woman. No way it's a real woman.
00:32:42
Speaker 2: So if you look up full image, that's the reimagined image. Look up a full body image.
00:32:51
Speaker 5: Because there's also, well, I want to say, these people are very smart, highly intelligent.
00:33:00
Speaker 1: Who's the these people?
00:33:02
Speaker 5: These people behind some of these things, and I'm going to tell you what I've learned for marketing, right? If you are a marketer, and that does not, and so this, in my opinion, is wrong because you know what the fuck going on. Like, you know what's going on, right? There's certain things that you know will trigger people.
00:33:26
Speaker 3: Ah.
00:33:27
Speaker 5: There are certain things, and it's not about whether it's right, wrong, good, bad. It's about whether it gets attention, right?
00:33:34
Speaker 3: And so if you care enough about it, like, let's just say black people aren't my target audience, right? Now, this is marketing. Let's take feelings out of it.
00:33:42
Speaker 5: Let's take everything, strip everything else away from it, like how you feel about it, because we don't feel good about this, and we know that it's some bullshit, right?
00:33:50
Speaker 3: And I can't speak for y'all.
00:33:51
Speaker 1: I can't speak for y'all.
00:33:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll get to it.
00:33:53
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:33:54
Speaker 3: It's bullshit, right? But.
00:33:56
Speaker 5: You are able to control people who are reactive. Once I get you to a reactive state and evoke emotion, I can control you and I can push.
00:34:04
Speaker 3: A certain narrative, right? So let me just say this too, right? Okay, okay.
00:34:08
Speaker 5: I have literally, so I'm going on tour, and I have literally sold tickets just because I've managed to make certain people reactive.
00:34:15
Speaker 1: You've evoked emotion?
00:34:16
Speaker 5: You may not have known that I was going on tour, but I pissed this group of people off over here so bad that they're posting about it, talking about it, and it makes you go and say.
00:34:23
Speaker 1: What's going on over there in their yard?
00:34:25
Speaker 3: I'm going to go see. Oh, I like him.
00:34:27
Speaker 1: He going on tour? I'm going to go. You know what I'm saying?
00:34:29
Speaker 5: And so now I'm going to go buy a ticket to the tour. I didn't know that's what the fuck they was mad about, but he ain't never did nothing to me.
00:34:34
Speaker 3: So boom.
00:34:34
Speaker 1: All right.
00:34:35
Speaker 3: So all of the people that I am marketing to, they see y'all over here so riled up about it.
00:34:40
Speaker 1: They like, oh, Converse?
00:34:42
Speaker 5: Well, I ain't have shit to do with slavery. I still buy a pair of Converse. I ain't have nothing to do with the Klan. I'll still get some.
00:34:48
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? And so it's like, I didn't have the reach.
00:34:52
Speaker 5: Well, I ain't going to say I didn't have the reach, but I wasn't hitting certain markets or certain people wasn't seeing it because of how.
00:34:56
Speaker 3: The algorithm and how shit is set up. So if I can spark a fire over here and get all of these black people, we all got one white friend to lease. Did you see this Converse ad? Now your white friend is like, yeah.
00:35:06
Speaker 1: I'm still going to buy some Converse.
00:35:08
Speaker 5: And I love you as a black girl or as a black man. I still love you, but Converse ain't never did nothing to me. Converse ain't never did nothing to me.
00:35:16
Speaker 3: And so now it's just like, yeah, we can issue an apology, but what y'all going to do, sue us?
00:35:23
Speaker 5: So we didn't per se do anything wrong. And so there's nothing that can say like we did something wrong, but we knew what the fuck we were doing. We knew it would per se be insensitive, right? We probably didn't run this by any of the black people we got on our team and in our marketing department, right? And we just kind of like put this ad out there knowing that it would spark that. And so now it's the talk of the town.
00:35:47
Speaker 1: So what you believe this was intentional? That shit always be intentional like that.
00:35:51
Speaker 5: I do stuff knowing for a fact that it's going to make somebody say something sometimes. Like, you don't know everything. Like, you'd be like, okay, I didn't intend for that to happen. But sometimes you're like, I'm going to say or do this, and it's going to spark something. Somebody is going to say something. Some group of people is going to be like something, and it's going to evoke some type of emotion, and boom, I got y'all.
00:36:14
Speaker 3: Because now once you're reactive, and guess what? I'm going to tell you what's going to happen. Watch this. Bear with me. You remember when H & M had that ad about the coolest monkey?
00:36:23
Speaker 1: Were you thinking about that just then? Excuse me?
00:36:25
Speaker 3: Were you thinking about that just then? Yeah, that.
00:36:27
Speaker 1: I'm saying, were you thinking about that just then? Well, to me, that was more intentional than this.
00:36:31
Speaker 3: Okay, look, but were you thinking about that when we brought this up?
00:36:34
Speaker 1: Of course.
00:36:35
Speaker 3: You was thinking about that H & M coolest monkey in the jungle ad?
00:36:38
Speaker 1: I feel like that was more intentional. I feel like this.
00:36:40
Speaker 3: Were you thinking about that?
00:36:41
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
00:36:42
Speaker 5: I don't feel like this was the same.
00:36:44
Speaker 3: No, you weren't thinking about it.
00:36:45
Speaker 2: I think this was more intentional. Is the dress blue or is it gold? Like, to me, I think that I actually see how this could have been an oversight. When I first saw the ad, I did.
00:36:55
Speaker 1: See the Klan hood and a tree.
00:36:58
Speaker 3: Were you thinking about George Floyd? No.
00:37:00
Speaker 1: Okay, nah.
00:37:01
Speaker 3: You weren't thinking about Trayvon Martin? No.
00:37:03
Speaker 1: When I saw this ad.
00:37:04
Speaker 3: Okay, so watch this. This is how this shit works, right? And this is what I say. 48-hour work week.
00:37:10
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:37:11
Speaker 3: Okay. 48-hour work week.
00:37:12
Speaker 5: Because they know in the next week and a half, None of this. This is not going to matter at all.
00:37:18
Speaker 3: It's so much. Your brain is being flooded with so fucking much. We're upset right now.
00:37:21
Speaker 5: And for this next week and a half, two weeks, they got everybody by the nuts where they want them. But it's going to be a more pressing issue, right? Guess what you're not thinking about right now? Macklemore and the Free Palestine comment, right?
00:37:35
Speaker 1: Oh no, we gonna get to that too.
00:37:36
Speaker 5: But I'm just saying, it's pressing issues and it's like shit that's going on constantly, constantly, constantly.
00:37:41
Speaker 1: And there's so much information to try to internalize.
00:37:45
Speaker 2: Speaking of marketing... You're an artist that does brand deals. As an artist, we actually haven't heard from her. Unfortunately, I don't think she had anything to do with the creative here.
00:37:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably not. Brand deals, you say? Brand deals?
00:37:58
Speaker 2: How would you respond as an artist who ends up being a part of a marketing tactic to get people to talk about something?
00:38:07
Speaker 3: And it goes left?
00:38:08
Speaker 1: And it goes left. Well, so the thing is.
00:38:11
Speaker 5: I would have to be in a position because when you're in, most of the times, or sometimes, depending on what brands you're working with, what happens is they send over approved images.
00:38:19
Speaker 3: And so if I'm looking at this, now maybe I'm looking at it.
00:38:23
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:38:25
Speaker 3: So she don't know. She don't know.
00:38:27
Speaker 1: She does not know. She might not know that she's young.
00:38:30
Speaker 3: She's not American.
00:38:30
Speaker 1: She don't have to subscribe to none of this shit.
00:38:32
Speaker 3: Right? And then it's like, you're a teenager, you're a kid.
00:38:35
Speaker 1: You really don't know.
00:38:36
Speaker 5: You don't know none of this shit, right? And so they just set her up for the wham bam. And like, Let's just, you know, they'll say she's innocent. She doesn't know. Now, if it was a white girl, if it was a white girl who raised a hill, now, if they put a black girl in there, like, we really finna cut a, like, a black teenage girl who's just, like, maybe raising around white kids, suburban black girl.
00:38:55
Speaker 1: Like, she don't know.
00:38:56
Speaker 3: And it's like, why the fuck do y'all do that to us? Or why, like, but see, it's a.
00:38:59
Speaker 1: You believe this was intentional. Do you stop buying Converse?
00:39:02
Speaker 4: Um.
00:39:04
Speaker 1: Well.
00:39:05
Speaker 3: Well. I don't have to support y'all going forward.
00:39:08
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:39:09
Speaker 3: Right.
00:39:09
Speaker 1: But you're not throwing your conversation away. So it's like, okay, do I stop buying Nikes in general? Yeah.
00:39:13
Speaker 3: Nikes owns Converse. Yeah. Are you upset enough to not buy Jordans anymore? To not buy?
00:39:20
Speaker 1: Right.
00:39:20
Speaker 3: No more Air Maxes.
00:39:21
Speaker 1: No more Air Force Ones. Get down into it, right? Get into it. Damn, I like these. And so like, yeah, don't buy no more running shoes. Yeah, everybody doing the.
00:39:27
Speaker 3: Running clothes now, right?
00:39:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, take your shoes off. You know what I'm saying?
00:39:31
Speaker 3: Like, take them off. I mean, to be fair, I shouldn't be wearing these because.
00:39:35
Speaker 1: Gucci did the.
00:39:36
Speaker 3: The monkey.
00:39:37
Speaker 1: They did the face.
00:39:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, take them off.
00:39:39
Speaker 5: Like, let's... In that case, let's be butt-nacky. Everybody is doing everything. Like, walk around this bitch in the beginning. God created it.
00:39:49
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
00:39:50
Speaker 3: Digging balls and pussy and so.
00:39:52
Speaker 2: I forgot Nike owned commerce yeah like stop buying all that shit if that's the case so I can't say that I'm so infuriated that I'm gonna like stop all the way around because it's just like you've incorporated these things.
00:40:05
Speaker 5: Have your fucking wardrobes these shoes these clothes these people and so like I tell people like I'm the type of nigga like, I'm a plain Jane nigga. All that design and that shit don't impress me, so I don't even go out and spend my money on a lot of that shit. You know what I'm saying? But I'm not upset enough to the point where I have to go home and burn everything in my closet and do all of that.
00:40:25
Speaker 3: Don't be fake mad and fake woke about it. If you want that nigga to go inside of there- Thank you.
00:40:29
Speaker 1: I be talking about the fake mad.
00:40:31
Speaker 3: Say your piece. Like, hey, they should do better. This should not be a thing anymore.
00:40:36
Speaker 5: And this is why we need more black people in the marketing department.
00:40:40
Speaker 3: With 48 hours a week.
00:40:43
Speaker 5: With 48 fucking hours a week. Yeah, because it's employment opportunities for us. And we need somebody who speaks up and be like, hey, we need marketing analysts who sit and study shit that is going to be offensive to people. Like, hey, Maybe we should cut this triangle out or just move her back and have the skirt sitting way, way back out of that silhouette where the star spikes up on the skirt. Let's just move her to the side.
00:41:08
Speaker 1: No, this sounds good. This sounds good. And it's how I feel as a podcaster.
00:41:12
Speaker 2: And I try to let everyone know who decides to get in front of a mic.
00:41:16
Speaker 1: You could be very sound and be very sane. Somebody... is going to be.
00:41:21
Speaker 2: Offended with what you said or your opinion. So I wouldn't even have the microscope of having anyone in to be like, okay, this is gonna offend somebody, let's adjust here. You as a person will always offend somebody. Not intentionally, of course, but always. Bro, when we get into the comments around the Macklemore thing and all of that, Me saying free Palestine shouldn't offend you as an Israeli.
00:41:49
Speaker 3: I want these Palestinians. That's a whole other politic. But we'll get into that. But that's what I'm saying. But there was one dude.
00:41:54
Speaker 1: Bro, me saying I like waffles. Niggas be like, so you hate pancakes?
00:41:59
Speaker 3: French toast gang.
00:42:00
Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
00:42:02
Speaker 6: But look, you know, Akeem said something about the people who are in position, right?
00:42:06
Speaker 3: I saw a guy in the car. I forget his name. I should have screenshot.
00:42:09
Speaker 6: He was a former creative director for one of the big. brands and he said currently there's probably three people of color who hold.
00:42:16
Speaker 3: That position amongst the big uh.
00:42:19
Speaker 6: Outlets so his his emphasis with it there isn't there it's important to have representation of us in the rooms so that wouldn't even be a conversation it's like oh what we doing and so and now in these rooms they just doing whatever they.
00:42:33
Speaker 5: Want and we don't want to put y'all in a funky ass position to say you gotta hire me because i'm black it would just behoove you.
00:42:40
Speaker 3: We can't tell you who the fuck to hire at your company.
00:42:42
Speaker 1: But it's smart.
00:42:43
Speaker 3: To have those people on deck because you can, because you're selling the dope.
00:42:47
Speaker 5: Who you selling the quote unquote dope? So shit like this wouldn't be a thing unless, unless.
00:42:52
Speaker 1: You did it on purpose.
00:42:54
Speaker 3: You purposely put it out of your way. Unfortunately, hold on.
00:42:58
Speaker 1: But then, here we go.
00:42:59
Speaker 2: Then you get down that little rabbit hole. Then you have the all-skim folk and Kim folk. What if it's a Van Jones that gets hired? What if it's like a Clarence Thomas?
00:43:09
Speaker 3: Like, what if.
00:43:10
Speaker 1: Ooh, I'm about to say. Like, what if it's like.
00:43:12
Speaker 3: Any representation in the room?
00:43:14
Speaker 2: There's a lot of conservative left that might not feel like... And if they're getting a check, there's a price. We say everybody got a price. There's a lot of people who may not want to talk up or speak up against anything, especially for us.
00:43:24
Speaker 1: So we know that. It's safe to say the creative director... So then do we want someone woke? And then we get into that lane. Is it the wokeness that needs to be in the room?
00:43:30
Speaker 3: Not the wokeness. It's just culturally aware.
00:43:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, but y'all want to take Rachel Dolezal out the goddamn thing.
00:43:35
Speaker 3: Who said that? I'm just saying. I stand with Rachel.
00:43:38
Speaker 5: Another thing with this, and even though it's sparking, it's flustering up the black community and sparking frustration, we may not be the target audience for this. We want y'all to talk about it because, watch this, everybody knows we control culture.
00:43:57
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:43:58
Speaker 3: Yes, sir. But when it comes to numbers, we are the minority.
00:44:02
Speaker 1: Always. Okay. But the black dollar is strong. Yes, it is strong.
00:44:06
Speaker 3: But we control culture and we say what's cool and what's not. Yeah, nobody can make it cool but us. White people control numbers. And guess what?
00:44:13
Speaker 5: If this were, was indeed what Converse was intended to do, like that Korean girl or those Asian kids, they don't know about that. or care about it enough to say, hey, Ku Klux Klan, whatever, whatever, I like Converse. And I see all these black people getting mad about it, but I didn't even know Converse was dropping.
00:44:31
Speaker 1: I'm going to go click.
00:44:33
Speaker 3: We marketing to Hong Kong right now.
00:44:35
Speaker 5: We marketing to the Philippines. We marketing to fucking like China, Japan. That's who we trying to get. We'd have had America in a chokehold for a.
00:44:43
Speaker 3: Billion fucking years.
00:44:44
Speaker 5: We didn't pimp this market out. Right now, we need kids in Thailand to subscribe to this And because they didn't have to go through the same shit that black people went through, they don't care about them struggles.
00:44:54
Speaker 3: Or they don't care about X, Y, Z.
00:44:55
Speaker 1: Well, I hope we're able to get culture. Let's get into some robot talk.
00:44:59
Speaker 3: Let's get into some robots. Let's get into some robots.
00:45:01
Speaker 1: Let's have some fun here. Let's have some fun, guys.
00:45:04
Speaker 2: Anthropic CEO Dario Amadi. What the fuck is he?
00:45:09
Speaker 1: What name is that? I ain't seen that last name before.
00:45:11
Speaker 2: Is warning that AI agents could become capable of literally taking over the internet within the next six to 12 months. Anthropic is the AI research company behind the Claude chatbot. Now, Claude, they keep telling me to break up with my husband, ChatGPT, for Claude.
00:45:29
Speaker 1: But I just got to learn him. Y'all got to slow down. Mama old. The technology is a lot. I can't keep learning all these.
00:45:35
Speaker 2: But in an essay, he proposed a three-step plan that includes giving independent evaluators employee-level access to verify safety practices, establish shared standards among AI companies, and he clarified that there should be some level of pacing. But basically, he's saying AI is growing. at a goddamn speed that he feels like could end up crumbling the entire internet. Mind you, he's the creator of it, and he's telling.
00:46:02
Speaker 3: Us what I like.
00:46:03
Speaker 6: But they act like AI is acting independently of itself.
00:46:07
Speaker 3: Do it. Sometimes it is. Wait, then do what?
00:46:09
Speaker 1: What are we doing?
00:46:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, get rid of all. No.
00:46:12
Speaker 1: Get rid of what?
00:46:13
Speaker 3: Sink us right into that motherfucking hole.
00:46:15
Speaker 1: Oh.
00:46:16
Speaker 3: Sink it. Because I'm going to tell you something. It's here, and it's not going to stop. No, it's not.
00:46:21
Speaker 5: Once we got a taste of what it's like on top of that mountain, We not finna go back to like, you know what I'm saying, elbow grease, like hand and nothing.
00:46:29
Speaker 3: We don't want to work this hard. We want so much convenience. We want so much.
00:46:32
Speaker 1: We do like convenience. Yeah, do it.
00:46:35
Speaker 5: And when we sink into that fucking hole, because we're not going to understand until there are consequences.
00:46:38
Speaker 3: Yeah. Some people you can't sit up.
00:46:40
Speaker 5: Like you said, we don't have the emotional maturity or the mental capacity sometimes to understand, hey guys, this.
00:46:45
Speaker 1: Is ruining us.
00:46:46
Speaker 3: This is such and such. Like notice, notice, notice like how we can sit here and have a conversation and don't have to pull out phones and just be. Oh, yeah. You understand?
00:46:54
Speaker 5: Like, this is a currency, right? But what are you doing when you're not, you know what I'm saying, you're sitting up being consumed? Now we get sunken into a fucking hole, and it's like, the government should do something. Somebody should do it. No, you had the fucking chance.
00:47:06
Speaker 1: You know how to self-regulate. You know how to like.
00:47:08
Speaker 2: The youth has sunk into the hole because they're removing AI. I think in the state of New York, they just did it, right?
00:47:13
Speaker 3: K-8? Yeah.
00:47:15
Speaker 2: There's certain states now getting to where... they see, like, the kids can't literally think without.
00:47:20
Speaker 3: Typing in what is my thought.
00:47:23
Speaker 1: And I mean, I've been talking to my homegirls about it.
00:47:25
Speaker 2: They use Chet and Claude to respond to niggas they dating.
00:47:30
Speaker 1: I'm like, you don't know how to have a conversation with a.
00:47:32
Speaker 6: My homegirl sent me a screenshot of an interaction she has with a dude, and she said, look at this bullshit.
00:47:38
Speaker 5: And I'm reading it, and I'm like, dude didn't even edit nothing. And I'm like, what was the.
00:47:43
Speaker 6: Original copy paste? ChatDBT to spit out. And I'm like, why are we doing that?
00:47:48
Speaker 1: I tell my friends all the time.
00:47:50
Speaker 2: Well, to be fair, my one homegirl said she does it to tone down because she be sounding like a Florida bitch. She's like, I just want to sound nicer. So I put in my thoughts and tell them to make it nicer.
00:48:01
Speaker 5: Motherfucker, when I meet you and you can't pull your phone out of the car, I'm going to realize you didn't get this motherfucker.
00:48:07
Speaker 3: How do I tell this nigga his breath funky?
00:48:08
Speaker 1: You know what?
00:48:10
Speaker 3: It's going to be frequent bathroom breaks. I got to go to the bathroom. Oh, not the uncontrolled bladder. You're going to go to the prompt.
00:48:16
Speaker 5: Well, the thing that's getting crazy with these companies is that we're seeing more and more employees, which it pisses me off every time I see one, but they're quitting Anthropic and these open AI and these companies.
00:48:26
Speaker 1: And going to start their own.
00:48:27
Speaker 3: No, no, no.
00:48:28
Speaker 5: But then they're becoming whistleblowers. Oh, everything back here is so dangerous. They're doing this and they're doing that. And I'm like, well, nigga, you was working.
00:48:34
Speaker 3: There for a year and a half.
00:48:35
Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
00:48:36
Speaker 1: Starting your own company that's going to.
00:48:38
Speaker 2: That's probably going to be the same because you think you can do it.
00:48:41
Speaker 5: And the other problem is that outside of being wanting convenience over safety and everything else, this has become, to your last point about marketing to Hong Kong and Asian other places, we're now at a place, it's like how space was in the 60s or the 50s.
00:48:58
Speaker 1: There's a race now. Who can get it first?
00:49:00
Speaker 5: And America is racing China because China's on the same shit. And so now you got these companies who are playing war games at a high level because they don't want a Chinese company to master this shit first. We'd rather be the controller of the robots that come kill the world as opposed to our enemies, our ops, having control of the robots.
00:49:20
Speaker 1: That kill the world.
00:49:21
Speaker 3: And at the end of the day, it's not gonna benefit nobody.
00:49:23
Speaker 2: You feel like, is this not, and we were all alive during this moment. is this not just fear-mongering on the scale of a Y2K?
00:49:31
Speaker 3: Could be.
00:49:31
Speaker 2: Because we didn't understand the internet in the way that it is now, right? And so Y2K, we thought everything was going to crash because, oh my God, the Google, the Gmail, the internet is massive.
00:49:41
Speaker 1: Is this not just that?
00:49:41
Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you what all of this shit is a ploy for.
00:49:44
Speaker 1: You think there's a hole, though? You think we're going to crash?
00:49:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, fuck yeah. Oh, it's going to happen.
00:49:47
Speaker 5: It's going to be an AI crash. Because there wasn't a Y2K crash. The thing is, it's not meant or set up to be.
00:49:54
Speaker 3: Like so... Sex school? No, the fucking word.
00:50:00
Speaker 5: What does it mean? It's not set up to be so evident.
00:50:05
Speaker 3: Oh, oh. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:50:08
Speaker 1: Like right in your face.
00:50:09
Speaker 3: It's supposed to look like, oh, come on now. You know, these devices are helping you. But if somebody's paying attention and saying like, and sat back over a span of time, they'll be like, well, okay.
00:50:18
Speaker 5: I'm paying attention to this. But now I'm looking how this is linked to that. And so I think this whole shit is set up for us to eventually be.
00:50:27
Speaker 3: Labor, sex, entertainment slaves. Oh.
00:50:32
Speaker 5: Because we're so fucking dull and numbskulled up here. We don't have any, not like, once we die off, the people who have the common sense, that's.
00:50:39
Speaker 1: Why the kids are like, they can't fucking think. They can't fucking read.
00:50:42
Speaker 3: Give us 20 years. Once y'all get out of.
00:50:44
Speaker 1: Here too old to say something, give us 40 years, 50 years max.
00:50:47
Speaker 5: Once y'all gone, we got a new generation of motherfuckers that don't know nothing about nothing.
00:50:51
Speaker 1: They're removing history. They're changing history. We remove shit.
00:50:55
Speaker 3: Y'all don't know shit, but what we give y'all, all of the food that you're eating, all processed shit, the people, the last people who had the.
00:51:01
Speaker 1: Good portions of... It's gone. It's gone.
00:51:04
Speaker 5: And so then we tell you what to do. We stripped you of everything and give you the shit that we want you to have. The food doesn't have any nutritional value.
00:51:12
Speaker 3: Your hormones are all fucked up. If we put this in front of your face, it triggers this. Sex slave.
00:51:16
Speaker 5: If we put this in front of your face, it triggers labor slave. If we put this in front of your entertainment, do what the fuck I.
00:51:22
Speaker 1: Tell you to do.
00:51:23
Speaker 3: This is literally like leading us into that.
00:51:27
Speaker 1: The food controls everything.
00:51:29
Speaker 3: The nourishment and like certain foods are like brain foods.
00:51:32
Speaker 5: Certain foods are heart foods. All of that shit is gone. It's a recall on everything. They take all the fucking seeds. We don't have seeds for natural foods anymore.
00:51:40
Speaker 1: You can't find seeds.
00:51:41
Speaker 5: You can't grow your own food. Take the fucking seeds out. They can't reproduce it themselves. We get them what we want to get them. We start putting shit into it that affects X, Y, Z. Like people start having manic episodes. And ain't nobody going to say they're like, hey, we're putting this shit in here to make these people like... We're putting shit in the drugs they smoking. We're putting shit in the weed.
00:51:57
Speaker 3: Nobody even tells you, right? Like, watch this, watch this.
00:52:00
Speaker 1: Nobody even tells you that.
00:52:01
Speaker 5: Like, the weed is so fucking strong now that one in three or four people are going to literally go into, like, induced psychosis.
00:52:09
Speaker 1: From weed?
00:52:10
Speaker 5: You ever see people, like, people literally, motherfuckers have paranoid, quote unquote, paranoid thoughts when they smoke weed. People really go into drug-induced psychosis and they kill themselves.
00:52:19
Speaker 2: Hold on, not only that, I have friends that now have trained themselves that they can't eat without going outside in the restaurant and smoking.
00:52:25
Speaker 1: Literally. Like, I don't believe that, like.
00:52:28
Speaker 3: Habitual. The habitual smokers, it's weird.
00:52:31
Speaker 1: I can't smoke. Shout out to Trev. Without doing anything.
00:52:34
Speaker 2: Shout out to Trev, because he did call me out, and it made me think of... Trev is one of our patrons, by the way. But he linked when I talked about surveillance kind of being something good.
00:52:42
Speaker 1: You just talked about how everything's linked.
00:52:44
Speaker 2: And I think what I'm noticing more than ever is not only our news, but when we get into surveillance and what AI is able to do... It's tricky because now you could put people in places that they weren't really at.
00:52:55
Speaker 1: You could change voices.
00:52:56
Speaker 2: It was a whole season of The Morning Show. And I was just like, oh shit. We talk about where AI is. Even how we.
00:53:02
Speaker 1: Consume our news, right? When you're on the internet, sometimes I'm seeing a video or I'm seeing now something. By the way, ladies. sorry because I'm the only one lady on a mic.
00:53:13
Speaker 2: I don't know if you know Instagram is telling on you you bitches that don't like to take cute selfies but want to make it with chat GPT or whatever AI it says AI content on the top so you bitches are cartoons at this point like the people can see the ones with common sense because some people don't fell for AI bitches but it's it's out here.
00:53:38
Speaker 5: I saw a video the other day of Desi Banks dancing. And I was like, I'm like, damn, Desi killing that shit.
00:53:45
Speaker 1: I'm like, why the dance? It wasn't him.
00:53:47
Speaker 5: No, I'm looking, I'm like, that nigga can't dance this motherfucker good.
00:53:50
Speaker 3: And I'm looking at it, and the shoes changed on the image. Then the color of his pants changed, and I was like... He got six fingers.
00:53:56
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:53:56
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm not going to lie.
00:53:58
Speaker 1: I posted a video of Bill Clinton in the White House shaking his head. Oh, you can barely tell.
00:54:02
Speaker 5: And nothing that we've gotten has been this advanced as soon as we've gotten it.
00:54:06
Speaker 1: No, it looks so good. Give them five years. No, no. Six months ago, AI couldn't even do fingers. Now, they're full.
00:54:13
Speaker 5: No, somebody just posted a flyer of me saying I was performing somewhere, and I got like eight fingers on my hand.
00:54:17
Speaker 3: But they folded up. Oh, yeah, to be mashed up together.
00:54:20
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. They got the free version. They got the free version. And I was like this.
00:54:24
Speaker 5: I was like holding my hands like this, but it's like some extra fingers lapped on top of my finger.
00:54:28
Speaker 3: I was like.
00:54:29
Speaker 1: Is there a robot.
00:54:31
Speaker 2: TV show, film, movie, that you've seen that you're like, okay, this doesn't seem so bad.
00:54:38
Speaker 1: Because the Jetsons didn't include any of this shit. I thought it was going to be fun.
00:54:42
Speaker 2: The Jetsons looked like we were just going to be flying in cars and be able to think of an outfit and put it on.
00:54:46
Speaker 1: It was so cool. It's not giving Jetsons. iRobot, maybe not.
00:54:51
Speaker 2: I still didn't buy my Neo yet, but I think I am going to get them. But they say you can't walk upstairs.
00:54:56
Speaker 1: And you know I got stairs. And it's a spiral. So I was like, I can't. Then I'll have to buy two.
00:55:00
Speaker 3: No. Transformers. Why you keep saying Transformers?
00:55:04
Speaker 6: When I was a kid, right? Because I was fascinated with this shit. I'm still kind of, as an adult. I'm still a kid. I'll drive on the highway. It'd be nighttime and shit. Not under the influence of anything.
00:55:16
Speaker 3: But when I see an 18-year-old, I'm like, damn. That shit could just stand up? Five of these niggas on the road right now.
00:55:22
Speaker 5: What if this shit just pull over and just turn into Optimus Prime? So now, with AI, saying that AI is acting independently of.
00:55:31
Speaker 3: the brands, who the fuck knows? We already got.
00:55:34
Speaker 2: We have cars that drive themselves. We got electric cars that drive themselves.
00:55:37
Speaker 3: We have Waymos. Oh, we even talked about... What if we pull up on Saturday 18? We'll do it!
00:55:41
Speaker 1: I know you in there!
00:55:42
Speaker 3: Come on, Optimus! What if we... Roll out! Come on, my nigga! I think it'd be a Megatron nigga first. I think we'll just get right to it.
00:55:51
Speaker 6: But I'm thinking, like, if we're programming these things with bots, you insert these things in the vehicle.
00:55:57
Speaker 3: Are we far-fetched from that reality?
00:55:59
Speaker 2: Did you see that they're now bringing technology where you sniff it up your nose like coke?
00:56:04
Speaker 3: What?
00:56:05
Speaker 1: You saw it. Damn, I didn't drop it in the chat.
00:56:07
Speaker 2: So there's nanobytes or whatever they're called.
00:56:10
Speaker 1: You sniff them up your nose literally like coke. Do that shit. By the way, I did that because I see it in the movies. I do not do that.
00:56:16
Speaker 3: Just so y'all know. I don't do it.
00:56:18
Speaker 1: I don't do it.
00:56:22
Speaker 3: We not judging you.
00:56:22
Speaker 1: I do have a thing. Put all our rocks down. I do have a thing. Because we both got programmed.
00:56:28
Speaker 3: Y'all know we got some of that 17 times.
00:56:30
Speaker 2: Listen, but no, but so, and what it's essentially doing, which is also scary, is it's getting into to figuring out how our brains work.
00:56:39
Speaker 1: Like, neurologically.
00:56:40
Speaker 3: What is it attached to?
00:56:41
Speaker 1: In order, It's robots going into.
00:56:44
Speaker 5: Can you look it up, girl?
00:56:45
Speaker 3: What is it communicating with?
00:56:47
Speaker 1: It's a company.
00:56:48
Speaker 5: There's probably a mainframe. The human brain is like outside of the sea.
00:56:55
Speaker 2: By the way, the human brain that we still.
00:56:57
Speaker 1: Don't know about, which is why they.
00:56:59
Speaker 2: Take it out of players that have CTE because it's something that they genuinely cannot study unless a person has passed. So knowing that there's so much limited information around CTE and, you know, Always got to send prayers to Chris Johnson and what he's dealing with. But there's so many neurological functions and things that happen with our brain that we still do not know.
00:57:20
Speaker 1: That now they're putting on robots to figure it out.
00:57:22
Speaker 3: I'd like to tell you something. Uh-oh. Tricky.
00:57:26
Speaker 4: Tricky.
00:57:26
Speaker 5: And this is something that a lot of people don't know, don't believe, and if you're a certain.
00:57:31
Speaker 3: Person, you're going to go against it. But however you want.
00:57:34
Speaker 5: To do it, you take it and you do what you want. I had a line in a song that said... And I never put it out.
00:57:40
Speaker 3: Oh. And so.
00:57:42
Speaker 5: This is gonna- For this reason? No, just, I had a line in a song, and if you, have y'all done drugs before?
00:57:48
Speaker 3: Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A number of drugs.
00:57:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, a couple. A number of drugs. Subjective.
00:57:52
Speaker 3: Okay, so we're talking.
00:57:53
Speaker 1: About what's considered, what? Weed is a drug. I'm talking about this, right?
00:57:57
Speaker 5: I had a line that said, when I'm on these drugs, that's who I want to be. When I'm on these drugs, that's who I want to be, right? Because think about this. You know how much we wish we could sit and fucking focus on one task and literally get so much shit done and be productive?
00:58:11
Speaker 3: Boom, pop an Adderall.
00:58:13
Speaker 1: Right?
00:58:13
Speaker 5: Now it's not that I want that type of shit.
00:58:16
Speaker 3: All day long. But for this four hours, couple hours.
00:58:20
Speaker 5: For the focus that I need, and for how much I get done when I take an Adderall, or what is it called, Vyvanse or some shit like that?
00:58:27
Speaker 3: I think it's Vyvanse, Ritalin, there's.
00:58:29
Speaker 5: A bunch of kind of stuff. That's who the fuck I want to be in a sense of being productive, right?
00:58:34
Speaker 1: Yes.
00:58:34
Speaker 3: You ever took shrooms?
00:58:36
Speaker 1: Of course. Okay.
00:58:37
Speaker 3: Do you notice how, and I explain to people.
00:58:39
Speaker 5: These are things that people, and this is why some of this shit gets you in quote unquote trouble because it awakens you or it puts you in a mind state that's like, you know too much.
00:58:51
Speaker 3: We got to make it illegal. If we catch your ass, we're going to throw you under something.
00:58:54
Speaker 5: We're going to kill you or we're going to throw you under something like you wish you were dead or you're going to sit here long enough until you rot. Okay, so we've stayed in apartments before, right? So, you know, it's not like when you stay in apartment complexes, none of your neighbors ever went into your apartment. You know, black people, like, unless you make friends with somebody, and even then, like, I've never stayed in an apartment with one.
00:59:13
Speaker 1: Of my neighbors.
00:59:14
Speaker 3: I live in the Bronx.
00:59:15
Speaker 1: Never went in nobody's apartment.
00:59:16
Speaker 3: They never came into yours.
00:59:18
Speaker 5: The door opened, like, cracked, and now you talk through the door.
00:59:22
Speaker 1: Literally.
00:59:22
Speaker 5: Every once in a while, every once in a while, they may be taking the groceries in or something, and you be walking behind them, or they going in the house same time as you, and you walk.
00:59:29
Speaker 1: Past, and you just... You peek real quick and just see what's going on in there. Watch this. That's weird.
00:59:34
Speaker 5: Tell me if I'm lying or not. If you've ever taken shrooms... Your brain is the apartment complex. Your brain is the whole complex, right? Every fucking door, every pathway, like, boom. The part of your brain that you're using is your apartment, right? And you go into different parts of your apartment at any given time. When you get on them shrooms, Tell me that you are not able to go outside of your apartment into another apartment.
00:59:56
Speaker 1: Somebody else's crib.
00:59:57
Speaker 5: And it allows you to open new neural pathways that you didn't know you even fucking had. You see shit that you're not able to see unless you're on it.
01:00:06
Speaker 1: You think shit.
01:00:07
Speaker 5: You have experiences about yourself. You figure out who you are. You figure out trauma. It's like an antidepressant. Do you get depressed anymore? Like on a high level?
01:00:17
Speaker 1: I'm different. Okay.
01:00:18
Speaker 3: I'm different.
01:00:19
Speaker 5: Okay, so now, like, when you were depressed when you were younger, it was like, hey, what's wrong with you? Ain't nothing wrong, but it's something wrong, and I don't know how to express that to you.
01:00:25
Speaker 3: Yes. You can express that better now.
01:00:27
Speaker 1: Yes, but I think that that's not because I have a lot of shroom trips.
01:00:31
Speaker 3: It's experience with life, too.
01:00:32
Speaker 1: It's experience with life, too. Experience with life, yeah.
01:00:34
Speaker 5: But some of that is to say, like, if you're using these things and you're noticing certain other things, and now the same to say to abuse anything, or I'm not telling y'all to use no drugs.
01:00:44
Speaker 1: Right.
01:00:45
Speaker 3: No way, shape, form, or fashion. I'm just giving you an experience from... I'm giving you some news that you can use, okay?
01:00:55
Speaker 5: Give me some knowledge without the college, so.
01:01:01
Speaker 3: If you can open new neural pathways by.
01:01:05
Speaker 5: Taking this thing and it shows you and opens you up to worlds or to like things that you see.
01:01:10
Speaker 1: Or makes you question things.
01:01:12
Speaker 5: You question things and you start to like make, you come to conclusions and like you figure shit out about yourself.
01:01:17
Speaker 3: And you're just like, oh, you know what? That's why I was depressed. That's why I did that.
01:01:20
Speaker 5: I don't think I want to do that no more. Tomorrow I need to get up and do X, Y, Z. And I need to make sure that I stick to it.
01:01:25
Speaker 1: Boom. Papa Adderall.
01:01:26
Speaker 5: Damn, I'm productive all of a sudden. I got the shit done that I was thinking about doing on Shrooms. I'm doing some self-work. Or like, you know what I'm saying?
01:01:32
Speaker 1: Boom.
01:01:32
Speaker 5: I can smoke some weed in healthy doses and it's like, it makes me think a bit more introspective. And like, they call it, oh, medicinal. We're using it for sight or this, this, that.
01:01:42
Speaker 1: Well, no, that's why the government got in there too.
01:01:44
Speaker 3: They put all types of shit on it. They put all types of shit on it. You know what I'm saying? But it's like, all of it.
01:01:49
Speaker 5: Are these things, like, other than, like, the bad quote-unquote effects that they, like, so anything can be bad for you.
01:01:54
Speaker 3: 100%.
01:01:56
Speaker 5: Too much of anything can be bad for you. So knowing what to do, how to do it, and then what kind of doses is the important part.
01:02:03
Speaker 1: Yeah.
01:02:03
Speaker 5: Right? And so they say, don't do drugs. Don't have sex. How the fuck are we supposed to procreate? How the fuck are we supposed to make kids?
01:02:11
Speaker 1: How the fuck are we supposed to... What we not going to do. What we not going to do is connect sex to kids. No, I'm just saying.
01:02:16
Speaker 3: No, no, no. But it is. No, no, no. No, but it's not.
01:02:19
Speaker 1: Listen, listen, listen. There's a reason to have sex without procreation.
01:02:22
Speaker 3: No, I'm just telling you. I'm just telling you. The fundamental. I'm just telling you, like, it's a certain stuff that they scare you. You know, you can have babies without sex. I want Mandy to take shoes and then go in the apartment you're talking about. I'm telling you. when she's having kids and see what that look.
01:02:36
Speaker 8: Like that apartment don't exist but all of these things all of these things are set up to keep you away from shit you know listen to this okay so and this is on a deeper level right let's go.
01:02:48
Speaker 5: There you know your pineal gland sits right here right and you don't wanna you know they give us toothpaste and shit that like calcifies your pineal gland right facts did you know did you know fun fact your wisdom tooth are connected to your pineal gland and it's a billion dollar a year industry, they never tell you that your wisdom tooth force is supposed to grow in, hurt a little bit, and then they straighten up and you're fine for the rest of your life.
01:03:11
Speaker 1: As soon as you feel a little, uh, uh, uh, come on, let's get them out.
01:03:14
Speaker 3: Right?
01:03:15
Speaker 5: And so this shit is connected to your pineal gland and it's supposed to help you open this and think on a higher level, but let's pull them out because we ain't going to give you the knowledge. And if you don't go seek it or if you don't know it, it ain't our job to just fucking like, you know what I'm saying?
01:03:29
Speaker 3: That's why it's called the wisdom. No, actually the funny thing is what he's saying.
01:03:31
Speaker 1: Wait, is that why it's called the wisdom?
01:03:33
Speaker 3: You understand what I'm saying?
01:03:34
Speaker 1: Whoa.
01:03:35
Speaker 3: Wait, wait, wait.
01:03:35
Speaker 1: This is real. This is real. Look it up.
01:03:37
Speaker 3: No, here's the thing. Wait, without even looking it up, why? Think about it. Why?
01:03:42
Speaker 1: We never asked.
01:03:42
Speaker 5: We just said, oh, we're going to pull the wisdom. No, but here's the funny part about what he's saying. So when I was younger, the dentist that I had was a black dentist. And he told me from the beginning, he was like, your wisdom teeth are growing in at a weird angle, but you're not going to have to worry about it because the way they're growing.
01:03:57
Speaker 1: In, you'll be good.
01:03:59
Speaker 5: The dentist that I just went and saw six months ago was like, oh yeah, we need to get those up out of here. They're growing weird. And I'm like, well, they always told me since I was in elementary school.
01:04:08
Speaker 3: Do they hurt? I was good. No, they don't give me no pain at all.
01:04:10
Speaker 1: That's what I told her.
01:04:10
Speaker 3: I was like, they don't hurt at all.
01:04:11
Speaker 1: They want to make us dumb.
01:04:12
Speaker 3: They want to take out our wisdom teeth? Did the correlation. Between, I bet you the correlate, you got your wisdom tooth?
01:04:20
Speaker 1: Well, there's four of them, right?
01:04:22
Speaker 3: They tricked you.
01:04:23
Speaker 1: But you so wise.
01:04:25
Speaker 3: Watch out. You want to take your stones and go over there?
01:04:31
Speaker 5: Grab your bag of stones.
01:04:35
Speaker 1: I'm not playing with time.
01:04:38
Speaker 5: Okay, let's get into some- All this shit is just fucked up, but I'd say that to say that.
01:04:42
Speaker 6: We- Listen, another month, everybody, well, for those who partake in that type of beef- Wait, another month?
01:04:47
Speaker 3: Y'all going to be eating, what do you call that shit?

Speaker 1: Horse meat?
01:04:49
Speaker 3: Fake meat. Well, we already there now. Yeah, they had the bullshit. That Brazilian RT.
01:04:55
Speaker 1: Here we go. Wait, Chick-fil-A fake? Don't do that.

Speaker 1: It's the best tasting chicken.
01:05:02
Speaker 3: I thought they had real... Seasoning, seasoning.
01:05:04
Speaker 1: Isn't it? Antibiotic-free chicken?
01:05:06
Speaker 3: That part I don't know about. It's on the billboards. So? Oh, is it?
01:05:09
Speaker 1: I need to know where you heard this.
01:05:10
Speaker 3: No, no, no.
01:05:11
Speaker 1: Because I heard the chicken is real in the Chick-fil-A. No, no, no.
01:05:13
Speaker 3: But look, what did it say on the board? I'm going to tell you. Look it up.
01:05:16
Speaker 1: Look it up. No, but what did it.
01:05:18
Speaker 3: Say, though? It said C-H-I-K-I-N.
01:05:20
Speaker 1: What is that? So because they spell it wrong, it's not chicken?
01:05:24
Speaker 3: It's like KFC.
01:05:25
Speaker 1: What's KFC?
01:05:25
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something.
01:05:26
Speaker 1: Kentucky Fried Chicken.

01:05:41
Speaker 3: You believe everything you see on the internet? Says the AI. Says the AI. Let me tell you something. I got the app.
01:05:48
Speaker 5: And I'm a fucking master, right? I got over 100,000 app points for Chick-fil-A. I got enough Chick-fil-A points right now. Everybody in this room could probably eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the next week and a half, two weeks.
01:06:04
Speaker 1: Okay.
01:06:05
Speaker 3: Probably the next month.
01:06:06
Speaker 1: But you know it's, or you believe it's not real?
01:06:08
Speaker 5: They literally told us that they were going to start using meat substitutes on the app. Or that they were going to alter.
01:06:13
Speaker 3: Oh. I read it, and I was like, Damn.
01:06:16
Speaker 1: Did you screenshot it? Did it come back?
01:06:17
Speaker 5: I didn't screenshot it because it was like 2021, 2022. I specifically remember when they sent that and they was like, we're going to have to start like, they can't tell you like, hey.
01:06:27
Speaker 3: We're going to be freeing y'all. Do you notice it takes stringy sometimes when.

01:06:31
Speaker 5: That's the shit that always, any chicken I've ever had that had that.
01:06:34
Speaker 3: Always made me nervous. And I'm going to ask you something.
01:06:37
Speaker 1: Let me ask you something.
01:06:39
Speaker 3: When do you find time, where and how often do you see chickens being And how often do you see chicken places selling chickens? You think we got this many fucking chickens.
01:06:49
Speaker 1: In the world?
01:06:50
Speaker 3: Hold on.
01:06:50
Speaker 1: I done said that about your salmon, nigga.
01:06:53
Speaker 2: That's why they doing farm raise and they really selling dolphin meat and all the other shit. I've never seen salmon become this broad of a fish. When I was growing up, salmon wasn't that popular.
01:07:03
Speaker 1: Oh, lamb chop, oxtail.
01:07:04
Speaker 3: We didn't know about none of that shit.
01:07:06
Speaker 1: I know about oxtail. I'm Jamaican.

01:07:08
Speaker 1: You ain't know about oxtail?
01:07:09
Speaker 3: Listen, okay, all right. I'll see you in the interview.
01:07:14
Speaker 1: Okay, not the lamb chops. Not the lamb chops.
01:07:18
Speaker 5: I wasn't eating Bambi growing up. When we were growing up, we didn't even have shrimp tacos, chicken tacos. We had ground fucking beef tacos.
01:07:25
Speaker 3: Hard shell. The shredded lettuce, the cheese. Sour cream was nasty to us because we was kids.
01:07:31
Speaker 1: No.
01:07:32
Speaker 3: I put sour cream on everything.
01:07:33
Speaker 1: I'm half white.
01:07:33
Speaker 3: You're half white. You different. Mayonnaise on a taco.
01:07:36
Speaker 1: Do your thing. Mayonnaise on tacos is diabolical. Don't try to act like you do. That is devilish.
01:07:42
Speaker 3: Hold on.
01:07:43
Speaker 1: Mayonnaise on tacos. She did it. Sold her.
01:07:45
Speaker 3: Hand me that rock, brother.
01:07:46
Speaker 1: Wait a second.
01:07:48
Speaker 3: Wait a second.
01:07:49
Speaker 2: Are we saying that mayonnaise and sour cream are of the same ilk?
01:07:53
Speaker 4: No.
01:07:54
Speaker 5: I fuck with them both. You don't get in trouble like me.
01:07:58
Speaker 3: You don't?
01:07:58
Speaker 1: On a taco? I do.
01:07:59
Speaker 3: I would have been throwing a rock at myself. I was about to say.
01:08:04
Speaker 1: That's not a damn question.
01:08:06
Speaker 6: The question is, all you niggas that know that Chick-fil-A got the bullshit in it, y'all still going to eat it?
01:08:12
Speaker 3: And them. So when Kanye says slavery was a choice, we do. Oh my God.
01:08:17
Speaker 1: I see what you're doing.
01:08:19
Speaker 5: Due to a common commercial poultry muscle disorder known as spaghetti meat or related structure.
01:08:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's disgusting.
01:08:24
Speaker 1: That's why it'd be strange. Spaghetti meat.
01:08:26
Speaker 5: Why you started making excuses? I don't know that the chickens is sick. Well, why y'all feeding us sick chickens?
01:08:31
Speaker 1: Duh, they cloned them too. They got two heads. Capitalism.
01:08:33
Speaker 3: No one cares. Are they real then? A clone is a substitute for the what? The real thing. And it might have human meat in there. You never know.
01:08:43
Speaker 1: Why are you taking this so far? That's a different story.
01:08:46
Speaker 3: But we talked about trust before, right?
01:08:47
Speaker 5: Why are you taking it so far? You trust these people in the manufacturing place? That's a totally different story.
01:08:51
Speaker 1: You believe we eat in humans? They said we eat in horse. You know the amount. Soylent Green.
01:08:54
Speaker 3: You know the amount. Soylent Green. I'm going to tell you something. The amount of human meat.
01:08:59
Speaker 1: We are going way up. down into this.
01:09:00
Speaker 3: The amount of human meat and hot dogs and.
01:09:02
Speaker 5: Then some of those beef patties that you eat from McDonald's is not 0%.
01:09:07
Speaker 3: Absolutely.
01:09:07
Speaker 5: The amount of human meat in this shit is not 0%.
01:09:10
Speaker 1: Because somebody cut their finger?
01:09:11
Speaker 3: Let me tell you what happens. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you what happens. Let me tell you what happens. Now, this is the type of shit that I don't do.
01:09:17
Speaker 1: I need to know your YouTube algorithm.
01:09:18
Speaker 5: I know shit about shit, or I, like, listen to shit. I'm trying to know a little bit about a lot.
01:09:22
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something. You think all of these kids come up missing and are being sex trafficked, right, and are given the chance to wash up somewhere, like, or be found?
01:09:33
Speaker 5: Let me tell you how this shit works. It ain't enough fucking cows, right? Let's just be honest about it. We got to supply people with steaks. We got to supply people with beef ribs. We got to supply people with the oxtail. We need plenty of fucking ground beef. Okay, and so humans are also red meat.
01:09:52
Speaker 3: You understand me?
01:09:53
Speaker 5: You think that all these kids that are coming up missing... Right? And it's like, we are a greedy fucking nation.
01:10:00
Speaker 3: Oh, this is getting dark.
01:10:00
Speaker 1: This is getting so dark.
01:10:02
Speaker 3: Well, to be fair, to be fair.
01:10:03
Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on. Stakes at Hal's is different than stakes at Longhorn.
01:10:07
Speaker 3: Just saying. Oh, yeah. Longhorn is dead meat. Oh, no.
01:10:10
Speaker 1: What's Longhorn?
01:10:10
Speaker 5: After that video from Kent Creek came out, yeah, Longhorn is big dick.
01:10:14
Speaker 3: Watch this.
01:10:15
Speaker 5: We need beef tips. We need beef cheek. Y'all never had beef cheek. I had that shit for the first time.
01:10:21
Speaker 3: Beef cheek, beef tongue, all of this shit that feeds people.
01:10:22
Speaker 1: Watch this.
01:10:23
Speaker 3: Watch this.
01:10:25
Speaker 5: These kids that are coming up missing and never being fucking found, right? Or being sent to butcher shops. And because all of the meat is ground up at the same time, you don't know to consider. How many times you tasted a, I tell people all the time, duck tastes like chicken and pork fused together.
01:10:39
Speaker 1: Oh, I love duck. I just have duck.
01:10:40
Speaker 5: Duck tastes like chicken and pork fused together. Some people may say chicken and beef fused together.
01:10:43
Speaker 1: Chicken, yeah. Chicken and pork, I like that.
01:10:45
Speaker 3: Watch this.

01:11:01
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry if y'all are eating lunch while listening to this episode.

Speaker 6: In the Caribbean, right, they eat fried frog legs and they say it tastes like chicken wings.
01:11:07
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, no. I just have frog legs in France.

Speaker 3: And the Caribbean are two different... Hot dogs got every fucking type of meat in it. Yeah, hot dogs.
01:11:20
Speaker 5: Hot dogs is just a mixture of meat. And I'm going to tell y'all something. If you think that these kids are coming up missing or that people are never able to find their fucking kids again, They rape, they use, they burn these kids with cigarettes. They got fucking pedophiles, people who are torturing and raping these kids in basements and in places, shipping containers. We find people in fucking shipping containers.
01:11:42

01:11:59
Speaker 5: You think people just make up scenarios about people just coming up missing?
01:12:02
Speaker 3: No, you think people's kids are just coming up missing for fucking nothing? No.
01:12:05
Speaker 5: They don't just come up missing for nothing. They're torturing, raping, beating, and killing these kids. Out of fear that they're gonna tell, we can't just throw all y'all in the ocean or let the dolphins and the fish eat us. It's because we risk motherfuckers being found. We risk a body washing up on shore. We risk somebody diving one day in a certain area and just being nosy and it's like, what the fuck is this doing out here? We have to hide this shit. We have to do something with it. Why the fuck we find the fingers in the Wendy's chili? Didn't nobody know they got their.
01:12:33
Speaker 3: Finger cut off in the factory?
01:12:34
Speaker 1: Yeah. That shit's scary.
01:12:35
Speaker 5: Didn't nobody know their finger was cut off in the factory?
01:12:38
Speaker 3: That shit's scary. Boom, finger off. Hey, I lost my finger.
01:12:41
Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait.
01:12:42
Speaker 3: That was there?
01:12:43
Speaker 2: That was a long, long time ago.
01:12:47
Speaker 1: That was over 10, 15 years ago.
01:12:49
Speaker 6: Even so, they never tested the finger to find out where that finger may have came from.
01:12:53
Speaker 1: Somebody did. No one just cared anymore.
01:12:55
Speaker 3: They would have talked about it. You in the factory and you lose your fucking finger. Bruh, I lost my finger making chili.
01:12:59
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, yeah.
01:13:00
Speaker 3: What batch was it in? We know not to send none of this out or let's cancel the whole shit.
01:13:03
Speaker 5: But we never knew the finger was there because this meat is coming from somewhere we don't know where the fuck it's from.
01:13:07
Speaker 3: And that was with regulation. Now we don't have it.
01:13:09
Speaker 1: We have no regulation. And then people have I've found body parts in that shit before.
01:13:13
Speaker 2: All I want to tell y'all is, I don't think this hard when I go out.
01:13:21
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm not going to lie. I can't.
01:13:23
Speaker 3: I can't.
01:13:23
Speaker 1: What I order is what I believe what I'm going to do.
01:13:26
Speaker 2: You said there's no more seeds. I ain't got a garden. When I go out, I'm going to order what I order.
01:13:30
Speaker 1: I'm going to think of this.
01:13:31
Speaker 2: To be fair, they could be lying to me because, you know, I don't trust nobody. They could be lying to me when I.
01:13:34
Speaker 1: Say it's a farm-raising. I'm going to tell you something.
01:13:37
Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you something. This is the hole we dug ourselves into. Yep. Oh, I know.
01:13:40
Speaker 1: We're digging.
01:13:41
Speaker 3: We're digging.
01:13:42
Speaker 5: And we're still digging. And we're still digging. You don't go to other countries. And let me tell you something. We are America.
01:13:48
Speaker 3: It's the rich, bougie, ain't he? That ain't got shit figured out.
01:13:50
Speaker 1: That ain't got shit figured out.
01:13:51
Speaker 3: I went to Thailand.
01:13:52
Speaker 1: I went to Qatar.
01:13:53
Speaker 3: I'm like, these people are fucking rich.
01:13:54
Speaker 1: They are happy.
01:13:55
Speaker 3: Everybody is happy.
01:13:56
Speaker 1: They're not consumed. People walk.
01:13:59
Speaker 3: They don't have the same issues.
01:14:00
Speaker 2: Oh, in Singapore, when I moved there, when I studied abroad, we did a tour of the city. You could get from one side of the island to the other. Well, I guess it's a country state, whatever they call it. But literally, one side to the next 20 minutes, right? Without traffic, because it's so bad. But they literally said, we don't even lock our doors here. You can leave them unlocked. There's no homelessness. There's no crime. They've figured out a system to where everyone either has a livable wage, there's enough housing for everyone. Now, they keep building on top of each other. But it's literally a country state where they've figured it.
01:14:31
Speaker 1: The fuck out.
01:14:32
Speaker 3: But over there, that shit is valued. Yeah.
01:14:36
Speaker 5: Everything that a sociologist would say about America, when they talk about, oh, it's crime in America and all this other shit, and people, the response to that is always, well, if you fix the schools, make sure people could have healthcare, and make sure that people could have a livable wage, you wouldn't see no crime. You wouldn't see those type of societies over here because... What would be the reason to go sell dope? What would be the reason to spin the block?
01:14:59
Speaker 3: What would be the reason to do all that shit? If you just gave people the... And that's just bare necessities.
01:15:03
Speaker 5: We're not talking about giving everybody a Bentley or everybody a Rolls Royce.
01:15:07
Speaker 3: We're just talking about.
01:15:08
Speaker 5: The bare necessities to live as a human being in this structured society.
01:15:13
Speaker 3: And America doesn't want to do that shit.
01:15:15
Speaker 1: It don't.
01:15:16
Speaker 3: And other countries are down for it all.
01:15:17
Speaker 5: You ever notice how we trying to constantly conquer other people? or gain territories, what's going to happen is these people are going to assume, this is why we have to hurry up and try to conquer or get these people so.
01:15:28
Speaker 1: We can move over to.
01:15:29
Speaker 2: I just want to enjoy life. I'm not going to try to conquer nobody. What's going to happen is the.
01:15:36
Speaker 5: People who are not in America and don't have to subscribe to or abide by some of the same laws are going to see like, damn. You ever see somebody be like, why they treat their kids like that? Damn, that's how they treat their kids.
01:15:48
Speaker 1: We literally like- Oh, that's how they talk about us as a country.
01:15:52
Speaker 5: You feel what I'm saying? And so it's like, we need to get y'all over here so we can make y'all our kids. Because before y'all sit up and watch what we're turning our people into and y'all realize that we don't want to be a part of this shit.
01:16:03
Speaker 3: They see us.
01:16:04
Speaker 5: You know, people don't like Americans. I know. People don't fucking like us.
01:16:09
Speaker 1: They don't fuck with us.
01:16:09
Speaker 3: Which is why.
01:16:10
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
01:16:11
Speaker 3: And it's not our fault.
01:16:12
Speaker 1: To be honest, there is an ignorance.
01:16:14
Speaker 2: And entitlement of when Americans go to other countries. Like, I'll be honest, this is very ignorant. The way we're... Who was I just with?
01:16:22
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna give no names. All I know is the way we all stay here.
01:16:27
Speaker 2: And wanted Brittany Griner free and the way all these motherfuckers are still traveling with drugs, I let them know. If you travel with it, I'm going to sit here and go online and be like, well, he knew better. Like the idea of the arrogance that we can sit here and it's kind of the conversation when Jameela was here. She was like, oh, I was pissing in Mexico and they tried to lock me up. She said it was kidnapping, but.
01:16:50
Speaker 1: There's rules and laws that.
01:16:52
Speaker 2: No one thinks they have to abide by when they go across the.
01:16:55
Speaker 1: Water because they're American.
01:16:57
Speaker 2: So I get what you're saying, but there's also like a level of ignorance and arrogance that these other countries see that we exist with that be like... Y'all doing it to yourselves, to be real. I feel like a lot of what we're doing.
01:17:10
Speaker 3: Sure.
01:17:10
Speaker 2: Go to L.A., the smog across the city, it's the cars, it's the way we live. We are doing this to ourselves.
01:17:16
Speaker 3: And to his point, that's why.
01:17:19
Speaker 5: especially conservative types, they push this idea of if you're an immigrant, they want you to assimilate.
01:17:24
Speaker 3: Oh, you come in here, this is a Christian nation.
01:17:27
Speaker 5: And this is how you're supposed to live and you're supposed to adopt American ways because they want everyone to be on this American time as opposed to what they're on over there. And to your point, maybe that's because they don't want people to find, they want people to get.
01:17:42
Speaker 3: Used to living like this and whatever it is that we're hiding. We sound like selective intelligence people.
01:17:48
Speaker 1: First off, no.
01:17:51
Speaker 2: This is very much conspiracy theorists down the hall. I do want to say, we only going to hit two of these three, y'all, before we get out of here. So celebrities say the darndest things. We got Chris Brown, Macklemore, and playing R.
01:18:02
Speaker 1: Kelly. Which two do we want to do?
01:18:05
Speaker 5: Um....
01:18:07
Speaker 1: Actually... I do want to start with Chris Brown because I want to talk about black men getting a second chance in America.
01:18:13
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
01:18:14
Speaker 1: Let's get there. We got three black men on the mic. With selective intelligence. So I feel like we can get somewhere with this.
01:18:20
Speaker 3: Nobody, no chances.
01:18:24
Speaker 2: Chris Brown did call out Representative Vinton Jones after he apologized to black women in for honoring Chris during his Texas show with a congressional record of recognition. By the way, y'all, it's literally just recognition. It ain't got nothing to do with the midterms, with voting. They didn't go up there and say, vote this person. Chris Brown and Usher have both not been politically aligned.
01:18:48
Speaker 1: You can just get one.
01:18:49
Speaker 3: You can look.
01:18:50
Speaker 1: Standard by which you have to earn.
01:18:51
Speaker 3: It's like an honorary degree.
01:18:52
Speaker 2: Y'all ain't going to sit here and let these motherfuckers be doctors with honorary degrees.
01:18:56
Speaker 1: This means absolutely nothing.
01:18:58
Speaker 3: Yes, it is a big nothing award.
01:19:00
Speaker 1: If you could zoom in to what he said.
01:19:02
Speaker 3: This is only a thing because we don't have a 48-hour work week. There we go. There we go.
01:19:07
Speaker 1: Funny thing is, y'all came to me with this.
01:19:09
Speaker 3: He definitely eat Chick-fil-A.
01:19:12
Speaker 2: Listen, y'all came to me with this, not the other way around. I was minding my damn business. My shows in Dallas were already sold out. I ain't asked to be honored because I knew some shit like this would happen. He continues, By at inventing Jones and being like, you know, here we are. By the way, for any of the black women that attended the Christopher Maurice Brown show and Usher Raymond, they have already forgiven him of whatever behavior because they don't already spent their money to attend this goddamn concert.
01:19:46
Speaker 1: Period. So I don't know who.
01:19:49
Speaker 2: Representative Vinton Jones felt like he needed to apologize for outside of the internet making a fuss about this. Jasmine Crockett, as a black woman, clearly has also already forgiven Chris Brown for his former troubles.
01:20:05
Speaker 3: Former is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Don't do that.
01:20:07
Speaker 1: We're not talking about Christopher Murray's program. Oh, yeah, we are.
01:20:10
Speaker 2: Jasmine Crockett, I'm going to go with Rachel Lindsay. She said on Higher Learning, Jasmine was a fan. When you get access to stuff like this, I would do it too. Listen, y'all better not let me get into political office. I'm showing up to all the concerts I want to go to, backstage.
01:20:24
Speaker 3: Offstage, wherever I want to go.
01:20:26
Speaker 6: And the timing is probably where, but also he's taking advantage of him being on the other side of the hall going after Jasmine Crockett.
01:20:33
Speaker 1: That's all I feel like that is. That's really that part of it.
01:20:35
Speaker 3: But I'm pretty sure y'all are going to lean into, is he worthy of such?
01:20:43
Speaker 1: Not worthy. Who, Chris?
01:20:44
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, the thing is that this is a fan award.
01:20:48
Speaker 1: This is like an.
01:20:48
Speaker 3: MTV video music fan award.
01:20:51
Speaker 5: It's like a Nickelodeon Kids Choice Award that they gave out to Chris Brown. Like you said, because she's a fan. The problem is that Chris Brown doesn't have- Did I have dollars paid for that?
01:21:00
Speaker 3: Huh? No, go ahead.
01:21:00
Speaker 5: Chris Brown doesn't have former troubles. Chris Brown has troubles right now. Chris Brown is still doing all the shit that he was doing and getting him in trouble for, for years.
01:21:09
Speaker 1: Nothing has changed.
01:21:10
Speaker 3: What is it?
01:21:11
Speaker 5: He's still got cases for assault. He's just, he has a case right now.
01:21:14
Speaker 1: That was his dog.
01:21:15
Speaker 3: In the UK, right? Yeah.
01:21:16
Speaker 1: We're not going to put... That was his dog.
01:21:18
Speaker 3: It's his dog. You control your dog in your house.
01:21:20
Speaker 5: They said he took your dog on somebody or let your dog be loose on somebody.
01:21:24
Speaker 3: That's your responsibility.
01:21:25
Speaker 1: No, no, no. The dog was in the house. It was the cleaner. Like, you can't put that... That's your responsibility. You can't put that on him.
01:21:30
Speaker 3: That's your responsibility.
01:21:31
Speaker 1: And I say that.
01:21:33
Speaker 3: That's your responsibility.
01:21:33
Speaker 1: I say that as yes and no. I say that as.
01:21:37
Speaker 2: Someone who grew up with a vicious dog attack went to my cousin's house. No, a dog went to my cousin's house and me and my sister went to the backyard and my cousin's dog had just had puppies. We all went to go see the puppies and my sister, her entire half of her face was mauled. She had to have her jaw wired shut because her jaw was broke.
01:21:58
Speaker 1: They did put the dog down, but we never blamed her. My cousin, my auntie.
01:22:02
Speaker 3: That was your choice.
01:22:03
Speaker 1: You could.
01:22:04
Speaker 3: No, no, no.
01:22:04
Speaker 1: But we couldn't. That's a dog.
01:22:06
Speaker 3: You can because you own a dog. It's your responsibility. Oh, wait.
01:22:10
Speaker 1: And here we go. The dog actually belonged to his head of security. It wasn't even his dog was raised by him. Fantastic. You got to know.
01:22:21
Speaker 3: It's on your property.
01:22:24
Speaker 1: So it wasn't his dog.
01:22:26
Speaker 3: You're getting caught up in the dog.
01:22:27
Speaker 5: The point is that Chris Brown has had not just a second chance, a third chance, a fourth chance, a fifth chance. Chris Brown stays in an issue every single year, whether it's an assault, an arrest.
01:22:37
Speaker 3: Or something.
01:22:37
Speaker 1: Or a false accusation. A lot of the ones recently have been false.
01:22:41
Speaker 3: That's all true.
01:22:41
Speaker 1: He's been falsely accused.
01:22:43
Speaker 5: So Chris Brown is an innocent soul, a saint.
01:22:44
Speaker 1: I didn't say that.
01:22:45
Speaker 3: And he hasn't done nothing to nobody ever.
01:22:47
Speaker 5: Chris Brown has had his second chance, and he's going to keep getting second chances because people are going to vouch for Chris Brown regardless of what he does because they're all fans.
01:22:55
Speaker 1: So then do you disagree with Don Lemon?
01:22:57
Speaker 5: Yes, it was such a stupid. I don't even know why he said that dumb shit. He's got all the chances in the world. Nick, you know how you get second chances? You stop doing dumb shit. Everybody ain't getting locked up. Everybody ain't getting charged for everything all the time. Everybody ain't getting arrested all the time. You're making decisions that are putting you in these situations, specifically with assault situations where you're putting your hands on people whether it's a paparazzi or a fan trying to take a picture. There's a million things on his rap sheet that's why he's getting locked up. He's not being denied a second chance. He just did that in an arena full of people who paid their money, to your point, to come see him.
01:23:30
Speaker 3: What second chance he don't got?
01:23:31
Speaker 5: Ain't nobody oppressing Chris Brown.
01:23:33
Speaker 3: Chris Brown is doing it to himself.
01:23:35
Speaker 1: Okay.
01:23:36
Speaker 5: And that's just what it is. This is something I'm not doing to myself. Y'all honoring me with something. I'm not doing that to myself because it's bringing me negative publicity. Yeah, and that's what he's saying. It also, just like y'all had to explain beforehand, anybody can get one of these.
01:23:49
Speaker 1: Yeah.
01:23:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a nothing award.
01:23:51
Speaker 2: But see, the ignorance is people don't know what this is.
01:23:54
Speaker 5: Yeah, so now it's like, and I'm going to tell you something, and I'm not telling anybody to not advocate or any group of people to not advocate for themselves in the face of something wrong or unjust that has been done to you or people like you because that would be saying, it's along the lines of saying like, hey, stop talking about slavery.
01:24:12
Speaker 3: You feel what I'm saying?
01:24:14
Speaker 5: So I'm not going to say If we're going to sit up and say People should just shut the fuck up Let's be quiet about the Converse Just shut the fuck up Be quiet about the Gucci stuff Be quiet about the whole shit Everybody just shut the fuck up about everything We're not saying that, right? What we are saying is I'm going to say Advocate But we don't have to get so out of Now I can see if Chris Brown had an active And open case about some type of stuff that went on, like what happened in the past, by all means be flustered, be frustrated, be upset, like hold people accountable for the shit that they're doing wrong. But it's just like, hey, the man has paid for some of this stuff. We continue to scrutinize, criticize, and I'm not going to ever say that that shit is right on any level. I'm not sitting up here asking kids. And I realize like some of these people are your peers or you have to work with some of these people later on. And so I'm not condemning or judging or saying like shame on or, you know, I'm saying like none of that. But it's also like shit like, hey, guys, somebody just said thanks, Chris, for coming to our city. And it's like you're so flustered about what something that happened previously.
01:25:25
Speaker 2: Are there any black men that y'all can name that have done something wrong in their past?
01:25:32
Speaker 1: That that didn't stay with them and that people did give a second chance to. And I say this because... Shit all of us. Probably us.
01:25:37
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
01:25:38
Speaker 1: But publicly.
01:25:40
Speaker 2: And I say this because I was having this conversation with my boyfriend too and I was like, even when Kobe left us, right? As great as he was as a player, not to you because you're a hater, but as great as he was to so many people, even in his passing, even in his death, they brought up him cheating that incident in Colorado.
01:25:58
Speaker 3: Right?
01:25:59
Speaker 1: There's so many times.
01:26:00
Speaker 2: That When black men do anything, that's what defines them. We're seeing it actually happen with the juror on motherfucking the Lindsay Clancy case, which has been doxxed. And now he's being told that he was late on his run. Everything about his character is now being questioned. And he doesn't even just get to exist as a man who may have made mistakes or may have been a man that went through hardship in something. And so when we have these conversations and you being a black man who may not have lived life the most straight and linear or you're still living life and have like time to make mistakes. When does that not have to define you? And so you're making it seem as though that is still the defining thing.
01:26:39
Speaker 3: Chris Brown has a case right now.
01:26:40
Speaker 5: He's about to get sentenced for hitting somebody over the head with a bottle in London.
01:26:44
Speaker 3: Right now. It was a nigga?
01:26:47
Speaker 1: It was the nigga, yeah. But it was a brawl. There was multiple people. I don't know if he's going.
01:26:51
Speaker 3: To, I think he's going to be on fire.
01:26:52
Speaker 1: No, he's about to be sentenced.
01:26:54
Speaker 3: He's facing a sentence in the UK. This ain't even me making excuses. If I'm in the club, somebody getting hit with some of these bitches.
01:26:59
Speaker 5: I was about to let y'all niggas whoop me and be like, because ain't.
01:27:03
Speaker 3: Nobody going to give me the justice.
01:27:04
Speaker 1: I can't sue you. You ain't got the money I got.
01:27:06
Speaker 3: I ain't getting shit.
01:27:06
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not going to lie.
01:27:08
Speaker 5: You finna feel this Ace of Spades upside your fucking head. Well, I mean, self-defense isn't a crime.
01:27:13
Speaker 1: No, but that's what I'm saying. That's what it could have been. That's what that comes to.
01:27:16
Speaker 5: But now it's like, because Chris Brown is defending himself, he had a trial.
01:27:20
Speaker 1: We're not allowed to hit back? I hate that. I don't think that's the case.
01:27:24
Speaker 5: I think plenty of people have defended themselves, and you be like.
01:27:28
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. What? What?
01:27:30
Speaker 3: Maybe turn into Jai. Jai turn into Jai. No way. I'm going to tell you exactly what this is. She's giving grace. Somebody walk up.
01:27:37
Speaker 1: You think I'm giving grace?
01:27:38
Speaker 3: I'm buying it.
01:27:39
Speaker 1: Somebody walk up.
01:27:40
Speaker 3: Jai throwing stones. Maybe giving grace.
01:27:42
Speaker 1: Accused of attacking a music producer with a glass bar.
01:27:44
Speaker 2: He later played it guilty to a reduced charge.
01:27:46
Speaker 3: Because he knows he did it.
01:27:48
Speaker 1: So he's already been treated. He pleaded guilty to it. But we don't know. The one thing about it. Okay, okay, okay.
01:27:53
Speaker 3: This is where I won't give excuses, all right?
01:27:57
Speaker 4: Okay.
01:27:58
Speaker 5: So for anything, and this is me personally because I was not there. I don't know what was said or what was done.
01:28:03
Speaker 1: Thank you. Now, if you fighting a nigga.
01:28:06
Speaker 3: Hey, brother, y'all get y'all room on.
01:28:08
Speaker 1: Now, I can see if.
01:28:09
Speaker 3: We're addressing like, okay, he did this and it was wrong against women. Yes, yes.
01:28:13
Speaker 1: Man, my head is.
01:28:14
Speaker 5: Security dog business. Like, bro, I had no control over his dog. He just happened to be there, and it's like security measures.
01:28:20
Speaker 1: Okay, boom.
01:28:22
Speaker 5: It's gray area, and we can shift it however you want to shift it. It's certain shit like, I'm supposed to let a nigga sit.
01:28:27
Speaker 1: Up and whoop me? By the way, by the way, D, you've been out with me enough. He pleaded guilty.
01:28:32
Speaker 3: Who pleads guilty to some shit they did not do? But wait, wait, wait.
01:28:36
Speaker 1: Hold on. You think I just walk in here and be like, nice.
01:28:39
Speaker 3: To meet you?
01:28:40
Speaker 1: Who pleads guilty? We don't know if it's a fight or not.
01:28:44
Speaker 3: But he pleaded guilty in a foreign jurisdiction.
01:28:49
Speaker 1: Yeah.
01:28:49
Speaker 6: I'm thinking he did that just to take the lesser charge, just so he don't.
01:28:52
Speaker 3: Want to have to deal with the legal.
01:28:53
Speaker 2: The way that you just said, who pleads guilty when they didn't do it, knowing how many black men.
01:28:57
Speaker 1: Don't have- Well, he probably don't want to keep doing the legal shit.
01:29:00
Speaker 5: That's not what we talking about. That's not what we talking about. We're not shooting the bum bail to niggas like that. Niggas plead guilty to the shit that they do because they don't want to go to prison or they want to try to avoid whatever the higher charge would be for going to jail. But like Akeem said, it makes sense. Pleading guilty to a reduced- Sure, that's what you do. When you plead guilty, they make you a deal.
01:29:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, they make you a deal.
01:29:19
Speaker 5: Say, hey, plead guilty to this so we don't hit you with this. And if you go to trial and you get found guilty of this, we're going to hit you with the higher cost. I'm going to hit your head with that ball. That's all I know. You better get clucked with that ball. This is how much I know we friends.
01:29:33
Speaker 1: Because, boy, do you hate on everybody. Everything that I love.
01:29:36
Speaker 3: I'm a truth teller. I'm not a liar.
01:29:38
Speaker 1: A truth teller. I'm just saying you're not telling the truth.
01:29:40
Speaker 3: I'm a truth teller.
01:29:40
Speaker 1: I'm just saying some of that shit is.
01:29:42
Speaker 5: Kind of skewed based off of your opinions of the person.
01:29:45
Speaker 3: People can't change.
01:29:47
Speaker 1: He did it. He did it.
01:29:49
Speaker 5: No, people can change.
01:29:51
Speaker 3: No, I believe people can change.
01:29:52
Speaker 1: All right, so watch this. And not to say that that's wrong or right.
01:29:55
Speaker 3: Would you rather have been that nigga or a woman? Damn if I do, damn if I don't.
01:29:59
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. No, I don't know. I'd rather he kept his answer. If it was a.
01:30:04
Speaker 3: Woman, oh, oh.
01:30:05
Speaker 1: I'll break it loose.
01:30:06
Speaker 5: There's plenty of niggas who done got their ass whooped who you sort.
01:30:10
Speaker 3: Of killing somebody. He wasn't on the receiving end of that ass whooping. Yeah, no. What you mean? Who, Chris? And that's the way it's supposed to be, man.
01:30:17
Speaker 1: He should have won. Self-defense is not assault.
01:30:19
Speaker 3: Well, maybe it wasn't. What are we missing? Chris might have been the aggressor.
01:30:24
Speaker 1: Of course! That's why you get charged with things.
01:30:27
Speaker 5: But the one thing I will say is that the other dude was a producer. So he's being denied a chance to exist in society. It's not about what you know, it's about what you prove.
01:30:35
Speaker 3: Thank you.
01:30:35
Speaker 5: Which is exactly why you plead guilty, because you know there's enough evidence for me to look crazy.
01:30:40
Speaker 1: So let me just take this shit.
01:30:41
Speaker 3: Trying to sue this person or take them to court. Which has nothing to do with what I did. Let's say I hit the nigga, bro. Like, just, I knocked the nigga out.
01:30:47
Speaker 1: John, you, all right. All right. Last topic, last topic. Goddamn. Jesus.
01:30:51
Speaker 3: All right.
01:30:54
Speaker 2: Macklemore was removed from the Ed Sheeran tour after free Palestine comments. There's a lot that's been said about this since then. Ed Sheeran did do a Instagram statement where he clarified that Macklemore's contracts were with the tour promoters, not him. He later went on to express that he would hope that he and Macklemore could still build a bridge within their relationship. And said that he was appalled by the hurt caused by the Israel-Palestine conflict and expressed sadness over the suffering on both sides.
01:31:32
Speaker 1: He also then went forward to express how.
01:31:35
Speaker 2: Well, Macklemore pretty much shared all of the inside conversations that were happening with Robert Kraft. Then Robert Kraft went to the other stadium owners and was like, don't let Disney perform in your stadiums. Since then, all the openers have dropped out. We now have just Ed Sheeran by himself on this tour.
01:31:54
Speaker 3: With his guitar.
01:31:54
Speaker 1: With his guitar.
01:31:56
Speaker 2: And he does a little thing too where he makes the beats live on stage too, right?
01:31:59
Speaker 1: He does that.
01:32:01
Speaker 2: Pink had to explain for herself where she quoted Awful. Fans bought tickets to see Ed Sheeran sing last night in New Jersey, not to be ambushed by Macklemore's anti-Israel propaganda. And that's kind of what I was saying earlier. Free Palestine isn't anti-Israel. Like, we could want people to be safe, and we ain't talking about what the fuck is.
01:32:25
Speaker 1: Fuck it.
01:32:26
Speaker 5: Well, the technology has been injected into everybody now.
01:32:29
Speaker 2: Which is what she further went to say, and this is where I want to go into this conversation, and also how we decide where we want to align ourselves publicly... and be on the right side of history or not. We talked about Ms.
01:32:39
Speaker 1: Rachel a couple weeks ago. I love Ms. Rachel. Hello.
01:32:42
Speaker 3: I love you.
01:32:43
Speaker 1: No, not Rachel.
01:32:45
Speaker 4: Ms.
01:32:45
Speaker 3: Rachel.
01:32:45
Speaker 5: Ms.
01:32:45
Speaker 3: Rachel is on it.
01:32:46
Speaker 4: Ms.
01:32:47
Speaker 3: Rachel is on it. Ms.
01:32:48
Speaker 1: Rachel going live now.
01:32:49
Speaker 3: All the white Rachels. All the white Rachels.
01:32:51
Speaker 5: Ms.
01:32:51
Speaker 3: Rachel is invited to every motherfucking cookout.
01:32:54
Speaker 1: Period.
01:32:55
Speaker 3: That's what's going on.
01:32:55
Speaker 2: Hello.
01:32:56
Speaker 3: Ms. Rachel. Hey, I'm cooking potato salad.
01:33:00
Speaker 1: We got mayonnaise. You cooking potato salad?
01:33:03
Speaker 5: Can't let her make it. Do white people eat warm potato salad, though?
01:33:08
Speaker 1: I don't know how they put raisins in it.
01:33:11
Speaker 5: I put whatever you want in this potato salad.
01:33:14
Speaker 3: You come to my house. We got unsweetened tea.
01:33:18
Speaker 1: All that. They do like it unsweetened.
01:33:20
Speaker 3: Yeah.
01:33:21
Speaker 1: You put them out of sugar, you won't. It's so nasty.
01:33:22
Speaker 3: You do what you want to do.
01:33:23
Speaker 2: Well, Pink later explained that she did not object to Macklemore's call for a free Palestine, but said, I have never asked for another artist to be silenced, and I'm not asking now.
01:33:33
Speaker 1: I don't need anyone fired, and I don't need a refund. Well, Mitch, you mentioned that. Pick a side.
01:33:39
Speaker 2: What I need is to be able to say, as a Jewish mom, that scared me. And it scared people I love without being told our fear is just propaganda and without being told I'm somehow cool with genocide.
01:33:53
Speaker 1: Because I noticed?
01:33:56
Speaker 2: Now, this is loaded because we did also see and we talked about M.I.A. She recently got removed from Kid Cudi's tour. for speaking out in, she's pro-Trump, right?
01:34:10
Speaker 1: What was her stance?
01:34:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, I don't know, I think she's gone mega-conservative.
01:34:14
Speaker 2: She's gone mega-conservative, and so Kid Cudi recently removed her off the tour. Now, that came with a conversation. Prior to going on tour, she was told, do not bring that politics shit on this stage, or you will be removed.
01:34:29
Speaker 1: This was not discussed prior.
01:34:32
Speaker 3: I get it, I get it.
01:34:33
Speaker 1: This was not discussed prior.
01:34:34
Speaker 2: Now, in a lot of your music, or especially how you're positioning yourself on social media, which is why the outrage is going to have one group mad and another group like, oh, but I like what he's saying. How do we, or how would you align musically on a tour with someone who is a different political person? And I say that because you know, and I'm pointing to A. King, I'm friends currently with people who it's becoming harder to be friends with.
01:35:04
Speaker 1: Because of where they align politically.
01:35:06
Speaker 2: I recently found myself completely cutting off a friendship because it just got too far.
01:35:11
Speaker 1: How can I look at you.
01:35:12
Speaker 2: As a friend or believe we're aligned or that you care about my wellbeing when politically you align elsewhere? Now with Palestine and Israel, we talked about it. It's been a talking point for the midterms. It's going to be a main talking point coming to the 2028 election. Where do you align or how do you take what's happened with this Ed Sheeran tour and how would you resolve this?
01:35:39
Speaker 1: Two or three things.
01:35:40
Speaker 3: Number one, ignorance is bliss.
01:35:41
Speaker 2: And?
01:35:42
Speaker 3: I know what I know and that's all I know.
01:35:44
Speaker 5: If I don't know about it, I don't speak about it, I shit my fucking mouth.
01:35:46
Speaker 1: Okay.
01:35:47
Speaker 3: Right?
01:35:47
Speaker 5: I don't pretend to know or if I don't have knowledge or some type of source that I can cite or things that are like, you know what I'm saying, reputable to what I'm saying. Right.
01:35:57
Speaker 3: Two. Two. I don't listen to people, I listen to their actions. Your friend, you saying, how can I know that you're gonna care for me, boom, boom, boom, boom.
01:36:08
Speaker 5: People say shit all the time and sometimes they lack the knowledge or sometimes they change perspectives.
01:36:13
Speaker 1: Or When they gain knowledge.
01:36:14
Speaker 3: You feel what I'm saying?
01:36:15
Speaker 5: And so it's like, say what you're going to say, and this shit sounds dumb and stupid, and I got friends that say shit that I disagree with all the time. But I genuinely watch your actions towards me as a friend. And so, like, I can sit here and be like, oh, we could do Chris Brown there, Chris Brown there, or this person this, or this person that. But it's like, I watch your actions as a person, and that's what's dictating if I'm going to fuck with you or not. This is a great person, we just don't agree on certain shit.
01:36:37
Speaker 3: And I'm not mad that your perspective is different.
01:36:40
Speaker 5: It's just like, He does no wrong in my eyes when it's like he's treating people the right way.
01:36:45
Speaker 3: He's doing this.
01:36:46
Speaker 5: He can have an opposing opinion or feel different about something, but that doesn't mean that like, and it's, I had some of my friends say some fucked up stuff.
01:36:52
Speaker 3: And I'm like, I need to stop fucking with you.
01:36:55
Speaker 2: And Ed Sheeran did go to Robert Kraft's, like they're friends. But I think since then, if I'm not mistaken, he did donate, right?
01:37:02
Speaker 1: To Palestinian efforts?
01:37:03
Speaker 5: Yes, he did.
01:37:05
Speaker 3: Robert Kraft agreed to match.
01:37:07
Speaker 1: No, no, no. He said, that nigga can do it. I'm not matching it. No, no, no. I don't believe Robert. Look that up. Robert Kraft did not agree to donate.
01:37:14
Speaker 3: No, he did.
01:37:15
Speaker 1: That's what he said in the statement. I need debt. I think you read it wrong.
01:37:19
Speaker 2: I think Ed Sheeran asked, could you match these efforts? And Robert Kraft said, you can... Do it, but he's not matching.
01:37:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, he committed $ 2 million for humanitarian aid. No, no, no, Robert Kraft.
01:37:33
Speaker 5: New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft committed $ 2 million for humanitarian aid in the Middle East after Ed Sheeran asked him to match the singer's own $ 2 million contribution. Robert Kraft is using that donation as a way to paper over.
01:37:46
Speaker 3: You know what's crazy?
01:37:48
Speaker 5: It was going to cost him probably that much to get him to not have those people let Macklemore perform at those stadiums.
01:37:54
Speaker 1: And now you're still.
01:37:55
Speaker 5: Coming out of the money like, Because I'm creating jobs by having people perform here, and they're saying none of my openness can perform.
01:38:01
Speaker 1: But the thing is, he was kicked off that tour, but the money was still guaranteed.
01:38:05
Speaker 3: My money is guaranteed. Rob Markman, Jr.: Oh, so they didn't care that- Rob Markman, Jr.
01:38:10
Speaker 1: Kick me off this bitch. Rob Markman, Jr.
01:38:11
Speaker 3: They just didn't want the presence and the messaging. Rob Markman, Jr.: Yeah, it's like- Rob Markman, Jr.: Did that mean the messaging is.
01:38:14
Speaker 1: Way more impactful?
01:38:15
Speaker 3: Rob Markman, Jr.
01:38:15
Speaker 5: It goes against certain shit for us and for our agenda, or what we believe in.
01:38:20
Speaker 3: And so it's like, don't let him perform here. Well, mister, I'm still getting paid.
01:38:25
Speaker 5: Now at base level, I can just sit back, kick my fucking feet up, and still get X amount of thousand dollars for this show.
01:38:32
Speaker 1: By the way, and it wasn't for this.
01:38:34
Speaker 2: So the $ 2 million pledge that's being discussed, according to Robert Kraft, he said that Ed Sheeran asked him to donate $ 2 million to aid. Kraft stated that Ed Sheeran had already called him to commit $ 2 million to METCH, Sharon's own donation for aid. Kraft said that this arrangement happened before Macklemore issued his public challenge.
01:38:55
Speaker 1: So this allegedly was done.
01:38:56
Speaker 6: And you know the problem in that? You know the problem in that right there? They both have two different positions they just searched.
01:39:02
Speaker 3: 100%.
01:39:02
Speaker 5: And they got one. AI chatbot one, AI chatbot two that they're arguing with. See how the chatbots that you're throwing at us?
01:39:09
Speaker 2: Well, no, it says that Robert Kraft also pledged a $ 2 million donation for humanitarian aid in the region, which is what you said, but in the region may not be for Palestinians.
01:39:18
Speaker 3: We don't know.
01:39:18
Speaker 1: The fucking chatbots are telling us bullshit. There's no way that.
01:39:21
Speaker 2: You say someone can't be at your stadium. for saying free Palestine and then you're giving aid to Palestine.
01:39:27
Speaker 1: They said in the region. Guess what else is in the region of Palestine? Israel.
01:39:31
Speaker 3: It's the region. That's the jump rope. Gotta be careful.
01:39:33
Speaker 1: That is the excuse that you use. You gotta read. It says region. It doesn't say the Palestinian aid or effort. No, it's not the chat bot.
01:39:38
Speaker 3: It says.
01:39:49
Speaker 1: In the region. And so that's what I say all the time.
01:39:52
Speaker 2: Like, when I'm in the comments goddamn arguing with motherfuckers, I'm like, did y'all motherfuckers not listen?
01:39:57
Speaker 1: Like, no, they don't listen. But also, aside from listening, right? Comprehension.
01:40:03
Speaker 2: Like, So, yes, what you read is correct. But then if you comprehend what's also being told to us, the humanitarian aid went to the region.
01:40:12
Speaker 1: Well, the war is happening in the region.
01:40:14
Speaker 5: The point isn't really the point is that he's the craft is going to do that to make it seem like he's a reasonable person.
01:40:20
Speaker 3: Like, oh, I'm not against those people.
01:40:22
Speaker 5: I just I don't have a problem with those people because I'm willing to donate money to the region. Like the point is that he wants to seem like he doesn't. Oh, by the way, Robert Klatt is going on.
01:40:32
Speaker 2: From TheIntercept.com, Robert Kraft claims his donations help Palestinians. Turns out he's funding Friends of the Idea.
01:40:39
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
01:40:40
Speaker 5: He's trying to play both sides of it to try to seem like he's a reasonable person in saying this.
01:40:45
Speaker 3: Also, the other part where he's full of shit is that he says that.
01:40:49
Speaker 5: He called Ed Sheeran and wanted Macklemore kicked off the tour based off Macklemore's past actions. The past actions that he's talking about is in 2015, 2016, Macklemore went on stage and.
01:41:00
Speaker 3: He had what Jewish people consider anti-Semitic.
01:41:05
Speaker 5: He had a big nose and he had his costume on and he was doing his song.
01:41:09
Speaker 3: And so they figured that that's anti-Semitic.
01:41:11
Speaker 5: The reason Kraft is full of shit is because if you felt a way about that that Macklemore did 10 years ago, you would have been told Ed Sheeran, you can't.
01:41:20
Speaker 3: Come to my stadium with him. The only reason you're saying- Before the Jersey thing, yep.
01:41:24
Speaker 5: The only reason you're saying this now is because it's loud. He said, free Palestine. And now it's like, well, I don't want to seem like I'm against Palestinians and I can use that shit that he did 10 years ago as my reason for I don't want this guy here.
01:41:37
Speaker 2: All I know is even though y'all are erasing our history, there's going to be a lot.
01:41:41
Speaker 1: Of people on the wrong side.
01:41:42
Speaker 3: I would hope people feel the same way. And I feel like Jews or white people who are Jews can connect to how we feel about slavery when a lot of this shit is being done. That never happened.
01:41:53
Speaker 1: That didn't happen.
01:41:56
Speaker 3: What are you talking about? What slavery?
01:42:00
Speaker 5: When it seems like we're going too far or doing too much, or this is offensive, that's offensive, and it's like, oh, get over it. And then it's kind of like, well, you know? Because we have a lot of shit that we want to say. When we feel like we've been discriminated against or shit is racial or X, Y, and Z, And sometimes as black people, I'm going to tell you black people, as a black person, everything is not a fucking attack. Like some shit is blatant disrespect or some shit like, you know, we know when people playing with us or we know what the fuck it is. Sometimes the world is a, we just lack the knowledge or we lack the mental, you know, fortitude and capacity to like understand certain shit.
01:42:43
Speaker 3: And everything ain't an attack on your black ass. Like, let's just be honest. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Mandy would say that. Black man to black man, black woman. What would I say? There's a lot of undiagnosed people out here.
01:42:53
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
01:42:53
Speaker 3: We're having discourse.
01:42:54
Speaker 1: There's a lot of undiagnosed people out here.
01:42:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
01:42:57
Speaker 5: But also, in the same light, and speaking on this situation, everything isn't an attack because you're taking up for something else.
01:43:06
Speaker 1: Something else. I know.
01:43:07
Speaker 3: I'm not attacking you.
01:43:08
Speaker 5: I said I like waffles. Doesn't mean I hate pancakes. I don't hate y'all, but something can be wrong and not right. and I still don't hate you or want X, Y, Z, and everything. Somebody was saying, Pink was saying, it scared me and it scared such, such, such. Imagine when, was it Nat Turner? Got free and a slave master.
01:43:34
Speaker 3: Was like, this nigga is scaring us. Yeah, that's... Well, nigga, you got us... You know what I'm saying? You should be scared.
01:43:41
Speaker 5: You got like, oh, it's scaring me that they're getting loose and they could possibly.
01:43:45
Speaker 1: Do some damage.
01:43:46
Speaker 4: Oh.
01:43:47
Speaker 3: God forbid. The people who you make slaves and beat and oppress are mad at you now.
01:43:51
Speaker 1: Imagine that. And most of it.
01:43:53
Speaker 5: So let's not speak about Nat Turner. Let's just speak about the people who just wanted to break free to get away.
01:43:58
Speaker 1: They just want to live.
01:43:59
Speaker 3: I don't want to hurt y'all.
01:43:59
Speaker 1: These babies just want to live. I just want to take my kids. I just want to fucking go.
01:44:03
Speaker 3: Imagine the people who were on the Underground Railroad.
01:44:05
Speaker 5: It never said Harriet Tubman killed people, revolted. or nothing like that. Like she did start.
01:44:10
Speaker 2: He bring up, he says all the time, would you be a nigga if Harriet told me to shoot?
01:44:14
Speaker 3: Look in the mirror.
01:44:15
Speaker 1: Look in the mirror.
01:44:16
Speaker 5: No, I'm not saying that she revolted and just, she got free, she freed people. Yo ass don't wanna come, stay there, fuck it. I'm taking whoever wanna be here, whoever wanna go. but I'm not trying to hurt people in the process. It ain't say she killed no slave males, because if she did, we would have known about it. We would have heard about it. We would have seen it in them books. And it's just like to say, I just want to free these people.
01:44:40
Speaker 3: I don't want to hurt you. Y'all done did us wrong, or y'all have oppressed us, and we don't feel good about none of this shit. I just want to go.
01:44:47
Speaker 5: And because I take these people and I just want to leave, or I just want to free these people, or I think that you should stop doing this to.
01:44:52
Speaker 1: Them, I'm scared. Yeah, that was.
01:44:54
Speaker 3: I don't like that.
01:44:55
Speaker 1: That's the.
01:44:56
Speaker 5: I don't like that. I'm gonna tell you something. I'm gonna say this. I'm one person just for me. I'm gonna account for me. I don't talk shit about people and I can't afford to talk shit about nobody because I know who I am, what I've been through, what I've done, right, wrong.
01:45:10
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
01:45:11
Speaker 5: I'm just unrighteous and I hold myself accountable on all levels, right? I'm not here to talk shit about one person. Black people, we have fucked up ways to... I'm going to hold us accountable first because I'm black and I can do that. We know what the fuck we do. White people, y'all have fucked up ways. Y'all do stuff that we don't like. We do stuff that y'all don't like.
01:45:30
Speaker 3: But I'm not scared of y'all.
01:45:31
Speaker 5: I'm not scared about X, Y, Z. No reason to be per se scared of us. Because sometimes we're marginalized and we're forced to do shit that we don't like to do.
01:45:41
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
01:45:41
Speaker 3: Don't want to have to do. But y'all don't have to.
01:45:43
Speaker 1: Be scared of us.
01:45:44
Speaker 5: And in the same token, it's like Miss Pink. You don't have to be scared because somebody is rallying for kids to stop being killed.
01:45:53
Speaker 1: You literally don't.
01:45:53
Speaker 3: That's the trick knowledge. We're not threatening you. That is the trick knowledge. We don't want anything to happen to you.
01:45:57
Speaker 2: That's what they do. I don't want nothing to happen to nobody. How you became the victim.
01:46:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the game. You all the way in America.
01:46:03
Speaker 3: How you became the victim. And y'all don't clip this shit up on me.
01:46:06
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
01:46:07
Speaker 3: I ain't talking about y'all.
01:46:08
Speaker 1: Oh, wait. You're right. The internet be clipping.
01:46:10
Speaker 5: Don't clip this shit up on me and try to pull no funny style shit on me.
01:46:13
Speaker 3: I don't want kids to die nowhere. Nowhere. I just got done talking about kids being trafficked.
01:46:17
Speaker 1: It's not just.
01:46:19
