Hey guys. Big Mona in the building. Big Mona is in the building. What's poppin'? Boy, they fired. 1:02 You go to HR, get yourself back. Oh, see? And that's my problem. And that's my problem with Mona. That's why she didn't 1:10 do it. You got to fix that. Joke, guys. I wasn't fired. Yeah, because you let me take a lot of heat across socials when 1:20 you miss an episode or when, you know what I mean? They thought I fired you, then I didn't shout you out last 1:28 week because I'm not shouting nobody out when they're going through their private. That's their story to tell. But they they 1:36 they boy, they tore me up. I thought my girl was going to hit the timeline and be like, no, y'all, I'm straight. Everything is OK. I still work 1:44 with the gang. But no, not a peep. First of all, I am so corny like that, that I really feel like, yeah, you're supposed to go 1:52 and say like, oh, what are you talking about but I didn't really see it like I don't know what after I tapped in the Twitter a little bit cursed out a few But 2:03 I've taken my brother's advice and I muted a lot of stuff. I told y'all that I read comments about myself for like 2 hours at 4 in the morning, like I'm about to go and cry. 2:11 Yeah, no. And I muted myself after that. Like I ain't, that shit's rough. Don't cry. I cry. That's the thing, that confirms a longstanding theory I've had about 2:19 the tough b****s on the exterior. Behind closed doors with cupcakes. Bro, you can't even get me... The sweetest thing. 2:28 You know why you can't get me that even though I am very soft? You're a cupcake. But I was on my period. I've been doing this 2:36 for 10 years. You know what I mean? I've never done that. I've never really... Normally, I would find somebody, go to their page, find their ashy grandma, I'm 2:44 going to grandma. I can't do that no more because I lose my page. Then it would be, I'll see it and I'll mute it because there's so many ways that you can 2:53 change your page to not be able to see stuff like that. So if everybody's calling you a whore and you mute the word whore, they could type whore every day, but nobody sees it but them 3:02 in Jesus. So it's things you know but I just that day I just decided to read and again this is a new thing for me so when I first was reading 3:10 these comments because I do want to get the people what they want you know what I mean so I want to tap in but it's like these it's hard to please I don't think you really can at 3:18 this point. So Mona is very happy to be here with us. Speak for her. No, 3:27 no, I know that because of how she's hugged everyone today. That's true. I didn't get my hug, but it's okay. She just been, well you know why? Her deep rooted 3:35 beliefs. Yeah. Ha ha! Catch! Actually her not so deep rooted beliefs. And that's how we got here. Mona 3:43 came in and immediately got into 1 of her favorite bags, which is to, you know. Harashi? No, 3:52 I mean, spread the good word of the Muslim faith. Ramadan will be your way. You like the in the train when you're trying to catch the F. Okay. You 4:00 like the, like you get your shit off. And she immediately called me a Christian I called him a believer at first y'all I said 4:09 believer He's a believer he's a believer in a higher power and now I've been you know, I've been corrected but 4:17 I just feel like knowing Joey or whatever, but pouting with him just certain things that he said. What you said that made me say that was you were 4:25 talking about science. And when you said whatever you said about what you thought about science. I said you were talking about Cory being what what is 4:34 he an atheist? Buddy in love now, so let's see where his views stand Yeah, that'll change a little 4:42 have a suit on yeah, yeah life to the Lord D Corey witness now he driving her door to door Why 4:52 my brother so Mona was talking about Cory's atheist and I jumped in and said that I've been listening to some clips of Neil deGrasse recently And 5:01 I get the feeling that he may be too. And I say he believes in science. Yeah, science. And then I thought about some of the areas I 5:09 disagree with Neil deGrasse Tyson in. Neil deGrasse Tyson believes science to be the end 5:17 all, be all of all things. And if it's not scientifically proven or disproven, then he's just not, he's just 5:25 not subscribing to it. And I don't believe in that shit at all. I'm totally on, I think it's arrogant of humans 5:34 to think that your little man-made science got on earth and Figured everything out. I think this I think there's some shit that's 5:42 that's That you cannot account for and will not be able to account for with your little tools. But the rest of it, I'm going to go ahead with science. Yes. 5:52 Yes. Okay. Yes. Yes. But see, I think that's where science is. So right now, yes, you're right. And then as 6:00 people keep learning and experimenting, and now we uncover more shit, just look at history. It's shit that we knew as fact 200 years 6:08 ago that is completely wrong. Why? Because science has evolved enough to prove it. I think as they keep going, they keep discovering new shit, they keep discovering new 6:16 sciences and new theories and whatever, they understand more. They know they don't understand it all. In my higher power talk, my higher power 6:25 talk to me is greater than Neil deGrasse's science talk. There's some shit that your science will never be able to answer. 6:33 So when I start speaking to him, because I'm being on spirituality, when I start speaking to him about what he believes happens when we leave 6:41 here, he's very scientific. He's very, there's no proof that, do you remember when you were a nut inside 6:50 your body? Do you remember that? There's no proof to say that death won't be like pre birth and just non-existence. Get the I don't think 6:58 he can't convince me of that. It's a lot of people that woke up and seen their dead mothers in the corner talking to them. I 7:06 believe in mediums. I believe that there are people that read other shit that you humans and your tools can't read. And I believe that 7:14 to have happened by design. But see the other side of that, the ones who question that think that's just a coping mechanism. Like 7:23 you didn't really see your mom in the corner. I think it's grief. Yeah, it's part of you, you processing your grief. You thought you saw your mom and that's how you're helping deal with it. And there's no way to prove 7:31 or disprove either 1 of them. And that's why it's greater than science. And that's why it's greater than science. You're not going to be able to prove or disprove 7:39 it. Like I said, I think science and religion are doing the same thing. Neither 1 of them can, they're both trying to question where, how we got here and 7:47 where are we going when we leave? And why we're here, yeah. That's the 2 questions and they're going about it in different ways. Religion is faith based. So we were told 7:55 something, we believe it, we don't need proof. Science is, no, we have to prove this and we're gonna keep going until we can prove or disprove 8:03 it. Until we get either 1 of those, we don't believe it either. And the big difference is faith. That's the thing. That's it, it's faith. You're gonna always, your 8:11 intelligence, scientific, whatever, you're gonna always be able to talk to a believer and prove something to them that goes against what they believe. 8:20 But that's why believers have faith. Believers have faith is what I think is really what it is and that's why it's real and that's why it's true. And that's the big difference. That's 8:28 why it's like, it's almost like it's a waste of a debate when it comes to people that believe in science because the faith part, that's the whole thing. And for me, the world is so 8:36 fucked up. I couldn't imagine living without having faith because without the faith part, it's like, why would you care about doing things that people were being asked, 8:44 you know what I mean? Like what would anything matter if you didn't have any faith that it was somebody watching and it was gonna be some type of judgment or something. But then 8:52 there are lots of atheists who are good people and don't steal or kill people. True, true. And they don't believe. I'm talking about for me. No, no, 9:00 I'm with you and I'm saying. I would be a criminal, it would be rough, I'm telling you. Well, you a criminal as a Muslim. An ex-criminal, and 9:09 that's the thing about Muslims are flawed Christians are flawed we all know for me Muslims are flawed. Islam is perfect. Not Muslims Muslims just people. 9:17 You know what I mean? It's like, that's it. Bring it out to Muslim young at the top. You say what? Not at the top, top. That's why I don't like to be like to add these talks with you and Mark Present. I 9:26 don't, I never talk about religion. I know, but I see your skin boil. No, I just think. I see Miz coming out. Miz ready 9:34 to tell the truth. Miz ready to tell the truth. I got some pamphlets in my bag. No, I was thinking about the opposite. I was thinking about 9:42 how many people also worship science, and that becomes a problem too if you become so beholden to science 9:50 that you believe everything that scientists tell you. Because scientists, like you said, are just trying to figure out, use the best tools you have at the moment to make sense of the world until you get 9:58 new tools. It's evolving. It's always evolving. Constantly. Now, that doesn't make me not believe the world is a sphere. It doesn't make me not believe that I can predict 10:07 rain or what to eat. There are lots of things that I would lean into science for, but I also don't want to 10:15 worship science any more than a scientist would tell people not to worship something that they can't see, you know, I Lastly I don't I 10:24 never talk about religion with people Because I'm partly because the Colton spent so many years doing it but lots of that's bad stories But also 10:32 because it doesn't get I don't think it gets anywhere. I feel like some people need to believe in things in order to be good people and to stay sane. 10:40 And if that's what keeps you from doing that, 1 little man say a minute, if a law can make you a better man, then Jesus can't remember, Charles Dutton said it too. 10:49 I'm all for it, cool. You know, whatever gets people going. Whatever work for you. All right, I got my 10-4 year old crew here today, bro. I see what's going on. So the joke I've 10:57 been making ever since I got here today, I've been teasing B-Dot because we've had a very poor music release day. 11:05 Yeah, it's all great. So he's been zapped of his superpowers to be able to just discuss music and albums, but he shocked me. He had a 11:13 trick in his back pocket. He burst out of nowhere and he said, well I'm a Christian. I am. Peace God. I don't think it's that. 11:21 He started breaking down the history. I don't think it's that. I don't think they go together. I didn't know that me that was a Christian. Yeah man. And I listened to Oil Rap Radar. I am a believer. 11:30 Yes sir, actually me and killer Mike got into it once about faith based things So really yeah and that conversation ended up in a Christian based movie 11:38 believe it or not Well, you know what was the boys in the big movie is TG movies? No No, it was a movie about 11:46 TV just feel free You still out now It was about... YouTube's coming up fast 11:54 as shit. He like, let me get all this out before the arraignment. What are you doing, yo? Nah, it was a movie debunking 12:03 the fact that Christianity is a white man's religion. Remember when Killer Mike had the show on Netflix and he was talking about that? Yeah. So him 12:11 and I went back and forth on that. Who won? I think it was pretty, I think while I ended up in the movie, so I guess I won, right? Okay. But what was your position that 12:19 it is a- No, it's not a white man's religion. That's just propaganda. So when people, some people are under the thought of that- Yeah, Killer Mike was at the time. He was saying 12:27 that- Into Christianity. Yeah, in his Netflix special, he was going around, you know, trying to explain or trying to figure out why that was the 12:35 position of Christian Christianity. When I told him it's not so. It's not it's not a fact that Africans were introduced to Christianity through slavery. That's 12:43 not a thing. No, it's not. I mean, Christianity existed before the transatlantic slave trade. Actually, the first ended 12:51 up in Ethiopia under the Gospel of Mark. He took it there and it spread throughout the world. Yeah, banish that 12:59 Muslim shit out you retalker. Yeah, the son of Martha. I just wanted to hear your, you know, your story. I mean, we. 13:08 Not it existed like the first, like I said, the first church was set up in Ethiopia. And that's the only, that's 1 of the only nations. Only 1 of the only nations in 13:16 Africa that's never been colonized. So, you're in Europe, yo. I don't want to hear no more, it's 13:24 your loss today. He did that during Ramadan too. That's crazy. Wow, they hungry 13:32 as hell. That being true or not, right? It wouldn't matter. It still doesn't 13:40 mean that slavery wasn't introduced to a lot of Africans. It was weaponized by a lot of Europeans. It's overrated. I mean, really, 13:49 like, Bible's redone so slave owners can feel better about beating the shit out of their slaves and re-fucking the women, like. Listen, Marathon Burger. 14:00 Did we ever get to the bottom of it? We didn't. Oh my God, I'm so happy to see y'all. I'm happy to see y'all too. Happy to be here. I am, I'm happy to see y'all. My 14:09 man, Mark is here. Yes. You all right? I'm great, Man, I'm great. I thought I wasn't 14:17 gonna see y'all today for a minute, but it worked out, you know? I was driving my kid to school and I got a 14:25 note right at the start time that the school was shut down because the pipe burst and there was no running water or toilets. Damn. They 14:33 love to make shit up, don't they? Yeah, and I was like. Don't be making that shit up, I'm telling you. That didn't sound like enough of an argument for keeping the school. Who run the school? The city housing authority? Did 14:41 you see him? Yes, I saw it. No, you see him. Well, yeah. Yo, they only sent that email to Mark. The 14:49 school is open. The school is open. All his classmates in class right now. What do we tell them? Yo, tell them the pipe burst. We not doing 14:58 this today. That sound like the Lino Mee school, man. Yo, I know, don't it? They don't charge like 1 though, man. Wait, you 15:06 paying in the pipe, bro? Wait, this is a private school? Yeah, you know that boy's from a private school. Come on, if I'm paying for a private school, I'm 15:14 never watching my son between the hours at 8 a.m. And 3 p.m. Y'all better have something at the house for him. Yo, that watching your own kid shit. 15:22 Right, and my wife out of town, so we ain't have a lot of options. Oh, man. So she left yesterday, which was, you know, so I got the next 2 or 3 days to myself. 15:30 That's like the best part of the story on that, you don't have to see your children and your family no more. That's what I thought. Turns out when the school closes on a work day, you gotta 15:38 bring them here. If this was the 80s, you would have been home, man. Bob Barker would have been babysitting. Yo, that's a fact. I walked in and seen that Sandy Brown 15:46 fur, what the hell is this nigga doing? Wow. And his realest nigga only speaks Spanish, this nigga know how to bling glass, y'all. You thought I was joking? 15:55 This shit is for real, this nigga really has. Well that was the angle you had walking in, my angle from the side, he was getting choked out. Like, 16:03 his son was definitely choking him all the way out. I was gonna leave out the fact that he picked Mark up from his thighs and tried to foot him. He's freakishly strong. 16:11 Yeah, he's strong. I didn't even know he spoke Spanish either. Good thing Mark's a pro at that. Not even though Mark was bilingual. That could come in handy. Try 16:19 it, Ligul. Yeah, he speaks Arabic. Arabic, Spanish. Yeah, that's why I got a really important question for him in Hour 3. I 16:30 have a really important question for Mark. So you good in the corner stores, man? Spanish, Arabic? Who like the bodega? Yeah, can't do a bodega. But 16:39 yeah, no, he's wearing me out already. But he was actually chill today, much more than last time. He seemed like he just didn't like any of us. No, he was really gregarious to you, 16:47 came in, I swear. Oh, he don't like me. He spoke to Phelps He's about to sit on Phelps lap And 17:01 if the school closes you'd be like a substitute school it should be something playing be school with some Yeah, like after school program, but 17:09 in a daytime is some shit where they sit and watch Never Ending Story like we did 1000000 times. Exactly. Where's the TV on the little rolly cart? Yo, do y'all know it's a never-ending 17:17 story 2 and 3? No, man. I did not know that. Who knew that? Wait, how can a never-ending story have a part 2? Let's cut these cameras off and watch 17:27 it. You deadass? I never do that. Yeah, me either. Me either. Let's watch it. The movie's also like an hour and 15 minutes long or something like that. It's a mad short. 17:35 Mad short for Never Ending Story. Right.

Even the TV shows. I was just thinking about that. We even 17:59 had a good coming to age movie in a long time. Mm-mm, no. And they talk about remake. We had coming of America too. All right.

So yeah, but seizures, some people out there that have seizures, they kind of 21:09 like wear you out after, and I wasn't, nobody was at the house. So, you know, it was pretty bad. Have they gotten to the bottom of 21:17 why it's happening? Yeah, it's blood pressure, but it's like a stress thing. Like, you know what's funny? I've 21:25 always been a talker, I talk a lot or whatever, but being that I do this now, I'm quiet. So when I go through shit, I'm not talking about it, and it's like, it's starting 21:33 to be overwhelming. I'm sorry. Where, where are you quiet? No, 21:42 I'm quiet at home. Like I don't like, I used to be like life at a party person, I'm talking to everybody, I'm always having, or I'm on the phone all day long, like I 21:50 don't talk on the phone, I don't talk to people, I talk for a living so it's not the same, you know, Bob. And I'm transparent about a lot of my shit 21:58 so the internet knows what's going on most of the time. But yeah, That's really it. Is there anything you could do to reduce the stress? I just don't want you to Be in a bad spot, 22:06 especially Thinking life alert. I'm thinking get on some whole old nigga shit I need somebody to really hit the bleep bleep. 22:15 Mr. Mona.

I'm just saying you 23:16 didn't have to up you can it's okay to not upload Content while you're going through a health crisis. Oh shit. Does the Joe 23:24 Button show miss a week? No, but sometimes we have I did 7 of us my last podcast 4 years I think I missed 23:32 maybe 2 out the 4 and I was super proud of that you know what I mean just having some in the tuck or whatever to my fellow content people just having some in the tuck 23:40 so you don't have to do that you know what I mean but for the most part my production team doesn't care about me and they let me do that looking crazy. Yeah that was nuts. 23:48 They could have told you if they had your best interest to just sit this 1 out for a little bit. Yeah tell them, tell them that they saw, please. And then I tried to get you a day off but... That is a lie. This 23:56 thing has been running with the same lies for about an hour. I'm glad you're here last week. It's a got, Parks, you see that's that shit I've been talking about. No, 24:05 I didn't come in last week, but that wasn't given a day off. I told y'all I wasn't coming in because I looked real.

Yeah she has been here about 6 months. Yeah. I mean I don't know what y'all normally do, but I feel like even regardless 24:38 of what, when my contract was up, I think people would say I got fired anyway. Well yeah, because people leave on ceremoniously from here for years. Oh, is that the thing? That's 24:47 that. Yeah, so they just put it on me no matter what. Listen, when I leave, I'm gonna talk about it. Listen, 24:56 there's no music out. I mean, there is, but- There is. Oh my God, you didn't hear that new LaRussell and Lil John? 25:05 I didn't hear it.

I'm giving her leeway. 25:54 What's wrong with that? What's wrong with what? I just did my job. What's wrong with the boozy hours? Oh, 0, wait a minute, brother. That's the thing. There's no rhythm of reason to this shit. You just got to feel when you can do shit. 26:02 What you can do in hour 1, you might can't do hour 2. You damn sure better not try at hour 4. Boosie is another hour 3 guy up here. Maybe 26:10 4. Yeah, maybe 4 sometimes. You can feel it. You can feel it, got you. Keep up, nigga! Well, 1 hour now, I listened to it against my better judgment. I didn't 26:18 want to, but I was like, it seemed like we had to. Was Narls Barkley. I don't think that we had to, but I also listened to it. I didn't even know that. I didn't 26:26 see that 1. I breezed through it. I breezed through it. It was highly disappointing. As a C-Lil fan, even though I know he's problematic, and as a Danger Mouse fan 26:35 and as an Arles Barkley fan, I liked 1 song. Yeah, I would say 1 or 2. Yeah. It's like 18 songs. Damn. I 26:43 think it's 13. 13, 13, right. And they hailed this as the final album. So when you said, like, this is our last album, that makes me feel 26:51 like you swinging for the fences. And it felt more like... I don't feel like, today, when somebody told me this is the last album, I think y'all went in the vault and put some shit together, and 27:00 We had to go get 1 real quick. Yes, that's fair. That's what it really means. But for my artists who I respect them as artists. And 27:09 they've made good music separately together. I was like, okay, you probably, like when Tribe said this is our last album, I was like excited. I know they're not Tribe. I'm just saying like, when I respect you and 27:17 you say this is my last album I raise my bar and this wasn't even a good for it. Not my last album. Right. This was like a you should left this in the studio Yeah, so 27:25 I'm on to do this. Don't leave that in the studio Oh, yeah, well, I know yeah, cross it off. Yeah, you don't have to go for a walk. They could but you don't have to 27:33 yeah, it won't make you happy You're gonna give it a quick breeze through. Yeah, it's trash on the breeze through You 27:43 don't need to listen to it in full to know I do appreciate that from the niggas that make trash. Like if I can hit the sample and know it's 27:51 trash. Thank you. Thank you. Sometimes they trick you. Sometimes they trick you. All right. So Nols Barkley trash. What I listened to, which 27:59 wasn't trash, was Ty Dolla Signs EP. Put EP out called Girl Music. Yeah. And it's quick. 666 28:08 songs, 17 minutes Feature Ron Isley, Brandi, Leon Thomas. And This 28:16 is good. So I didn't hear none of the trash. I was very happy about this 1 I'm looking forward to the Todd dollar sign album I don't know what happened. He's supposed to be 28:24 coming out with album a couple months ago This is track 1 of Todd dollar sign. Nobody has to know with Ronald wisely That's what I stopped. You 28:32 get the point. That's what I stopped. You said that's where you stopped? That's where I stopped. What? Cause that R. Kelly. Oh 28:41 no that wasn't why it was just like they're like you can't fucking like I'm cool. I do maybe it was just a timing thing. I love tight down the sign, but it's 28:49 felt Yeah, lazy lazy. Oh, yeah Everybody's doing right now. He said was because what's gonna drop this week with right now is the sample to right? Bezo, 28:58 I swear V's over. Yeah, he put a little EP as well. It's pretty good. It's like for women, very women-centric. 29:08 Listen, 6 songs, not bad. I love the Brandy joint, I love the Leon Thomas joint. I do wanna hear the Leon 1. I like all of these joints. Listen, 29:16 man. Listen, man. Leon Thomas is on. Leon Thomas went ahead the best drop of the week and it ain't this 1 though. Yo, Leon Thomas 29:25 became what Tyler Dollasson used to be. Yeah. You know how you saw a featuring Tyler Dollasson, you was like, yo, all right, whoever this is, yeah, let me hear what Ty did on this. For sure. That's 29:33 where Leon at now. Not bad at that take. Soon as you see it, yo, all right, let me go, I gotta see what Leon Thomas did on this record. And he don't miss. I think saying that is disrespectful to Leon Thomas. 29:41 Yeah, I never had that urgency to say, yo, Ty Dolla $ign's on this. Oh, nah. Oh, nah, y'all bugging now. You're tripping up. Y'all are absolutely bugging. Free TC is an absolute classic to me and he has not gotten 29:49 back to that. Todd Dolla $ign as a feature artist was a thing. Nah, it wasn't. There was an urgency because Todd Dolla? No. Yes. You must 29:57 have lived in 2 Americas. Yeah. I'm in the real 1. Nah. Yeah. I missed that wave too. Let him fight. No, no. 30:06 I didn't plan it. Don't look at me like I did. No, no, no. No, there's no fight. No, I don't think that happened. You just see music totally differently. 30:14 Yeah, that's it. I love Ty Dolla Signer. It's been a long time since I rushed to a Ty Dolla Signer feature, but there was a point in time where he was absolutely the man. He was popular, but there was a moment where you 30:22 were like, yo, this joint got Ty Dolla Signer. There was a moment where if you saw Ty Dolla Signer featured on a song, it was, oh shit, you know what Ty does. Let's go see it. Whatever 30:30 is this you talking about? I agree with you, but whatever is this? This is a- Are you talking about Jayden? That might have been toward the end of it. Jayden was 30:38 born 2017. I thought 2016. Not early. I thought 2016. Somewhere in there. Yeah, somewhere in 15, 16. Yeah, but this is- Are you talking about the 30:46 light? Let's have sex, but not without the phone playing. Somewhere around there. 30:54 That was a run, bro. I'm challenging Parks's point. Free TC is a great project, my favorite Tidala project, and it's the closest he's 31:03 come to fulfilling his potential to me. I would say that. I think to talk about free TC in the same class as Mutt. 31:11 Yeah. No, I wasn't doing that. I didn't say that. But that's the only reason I say. I think they're comparable to me. Hell no. I'm not 31:19 with that. Free TC is amazing. AM and PM man. Yeah. It's hard to compare. And I don't think it really matters because Leon Thomas is 31:27 signed to Todd Allison. True. Right. And let me just tell you, if I have a label, if I'm an artist 31:36 and I sign an artist that start getting that type of blue flame on them, I'm going into session and stealing some songs. Like if I'm 31:44 Fat Joe, Still not a player might be my record in 90. Seriously. I'm 31:52 taking it. Is that 98? 97? I'm on it at least. See, I don't take it. I'm at least on it. If I'm Tidala, I'm on Mutt. I'm on a Mutt remix. I'm 32:00 stealing from... I kind of disagree with y'all. Go ahead. Because you go do all the press and shows and performances and all that shit with this. I'm gonna get my cut 32:08 anyway. You have a blast. Well, that's why I prefaced it with if I'm an artist because they're artists. Yeah. Well, work for Puff. If they're not artists, then yeah, go 32:16 do all the promo shit, I'll be in the back, somebody's gonna check. But these guys are artists already. I think Ty Dolla, I love Ty Dolla, but I think he could use 32:25 1 of these Leon leftovers. See, I feel like he should be giving shit to Leon, really. I 32:33 feel like he should be writing and producing and be like, this 1, you go ahead. You run around and do all the- I think this might be a case where the student might be better than the teacher. Oh, we kill, we go. 32:41 B-Dot, you're not a Todd Dolla Sign fan. I hate Todd Dolla Sign. And now that I'm listening- I love him with Cleefoot or not. That was a great moment. We like Todd dollar sign. 32:50 He's great But I love Todd I'm not Todd had a nice little I'm not a great run. I'm not mitigating 32:58 his beach house I'm not mitigating anything Todd dollar sign is done, but I can't aggrandize them to the position that Todd that Leon Thomas Is it yeah 33:06 that ice is going? Yeah, I think you need to go back and listen to Free TC again. That album was great. I might have to 33:15 give it a revisit. You wasn't in the club when mustard and Todd Dallason came on. I'm not disputing that. Yes, Todd Dallason had a run. He 33:23 was everywhere. But I think, you know, to elevate him to the status that you guys are saying, I can't give him that. Okay. Controversial B.T.A. 33:32 Okay. Spicy. Pretty spicy. I think Leon Thomas had the best drop today though. That 50 snippet. 33:41 From a show. Power. Power. That shit is amazing. What's it called? Power, it's like the- It's like a spin-off. Legacy. It's another spin-off. 50 gonna kill 33:49 a theme song boy. Yeah, and a documentary, apparently. Yeah. This was 33:58 part 7, what is it, like of the 50 cent TI beef now? He responded on Instagram saying he's willing to write a, 34:06 he said, I'm gonna respond. He said, remember how quiet I get before I go after people basically. And then he threatened a 50, I mean a TI and tiny documentary. 34:16 No. Yeah. Yeah. And he mentioned sexual assault allegations. He made a whole thing and he deleted it, if I remember correctly. He Instagrammed and 34:24 deleted. I think people would have stopped pointing that, because a lot of people say, oh well he deleted it as if he takes it back. 50 deletes everything. Yeah, that's not a take back. Yeah, it's not 34:32 a take back. He posts it. He posts a lot. He lets the blogs grab it, lets it garner the attention, it lives over there, and then he removes it off his page. It's not him walking anything back. 34:40 It's part of his mystique. Exactly, he does this with everything. Look at it. No, I was just gonna say, TI Responds are trying to pull up TI's response. Because a lot of people thought that that would actually Push 34:51 yeah dead it like almost like I'm a scare you into not into not saying the TI basically was like We're not afraid of a documentary. We can go doc for doc. I'll make 1 about 34:59 you, too He called him a fuck nigga and then said let's go and then tweeted a link to his music. So This feels like the thing that I was afraid of 35:08 This is going outside of music. Yeah, like now we go make doc for doc for doc. It's cool I like a doc But 35:18 not like this Revenge pop doc was out of 35:27 here. It was great. I almost hate how good that documentary is if you think about the reasons behind it. Like I think that's corny. 35:35 I think it's corny to make the TI tiny dot about sexual assault allegations because of this. I 35:43 think that's corny. I think, I just think it's whack. I don't care. Can the ends justify the means? Like, let's just say the accusations 35:52 are true. Allegedly, let's just say that they're true. I don't even know the accusations. There are some accusations out there. They were dumb by all years ago. It was dumb 36:00 by all. But let's say that they are true. And justice for the victim, getting that story out, would that justify the 36:08 corny shit that it took to get this route? Niggas gotta stop using victims for their revenge. That's the thing, guys. If somebody really did watch it, I'd be 36:16 like, And if you're gonna do that, then I just don't wanna hear the justice for the victim. We had the same conversation, and what Mark said to me was, well, 36:24 none of those documentaries, all of them are trying to get money when you think about it that way, which is true. Absolutely. And I was kinda like, stop there, but I don't give a fuck. 36:32 It's corny. I think it's corny. And I hate. I agree with you. I hate the fact that people try to pretend like victims have anything to do. Nobody gives a fuck about 36:41 the victim. That's not in these situations. It has nothing to do with the victim. If it don't pretend it does. Come on, bro. He's just like, I got your ass now. I got some shit on you. But he'll say it, he'll use 36:49 the words, the victims and shit like that. He'll use that verbiage. So it's still, no, that shit's ass. And the fact that people want me to believe 36:57 that a person that's doing stuff like that is a happy person, healthy, sane person is like, okay. Like, that's weird. I'm not 37:05 saying justice for Victor. I agree. My point is, if someone is out here committing these acts, then yes, I want to see the doc. 37:13 That's what I'm saying. I want to see the doc and it justifies the means. Even if it's corny shit that it took to get to the doc, if someone is really doing these 37:21 things, I think that should be put out. And I'm not talking about Tia, I'm just saying anybody. If you out here doing this shit, like the puff shit, So 37:30 what it came from corny shit, he was doing some of this shit. Yeah, that's right. I said it's the right thing. I think both. I think both of what you're saying are true. I think 37:38 regards to the reason for doing it. If it gives justice to victims, great. That doesn't mean it's not correct. Right. It's still good. Yeah. 37:47 I want to try to allegedly what happened. It was almost like a thing where, and you correct me if I'm saying it wrong, cause it's old, but it was like 37:55 that they would have nights where they would bring women back in their bed. And then it was stories of like being drugged or giving ecstasy or being 38:03 taken advantage of. So instead of it being just a normal me and my wife fuck bitches together, that they're being forced into it. And I remember 1 of the girls 38:11 that got real popular behind it, like she was like shut down, like everything she said was not, and I don't even wanna go into that too much because that bitch would be in 38:19 my DM I love when podcasters do that Go into it and they give all the old tea that nobody's talking about The reason why I'm saying I don't want to go into 38:27 it is because she was championing her own shit And the type of person she is that bitch will be in my DM and 10 minutes after this shit drop And it's like I don't remember word for word what 38:35 happened to you sister. I'm sorry to happen to you. Okay Allegedly if it happened or didn't happen They dog they date 38:43 they everybody dogpowder, but that's what people do to victims. So that's not like, that doesn't negate the fact whether it was true or not. But T.I. And Tiny 38:52 won. Whatever, lawsuit, whatever, whatever, they won. So according to the law or whatever, they're innocent. As of then, that's where everybody kind of left 39:00 it. Like it wasn't true. You know what I mean? Do you guys mind if I hear the Leon Thomas song? Yeah. Yeah, there we go. There we go, let's hear that. 39:10 Here we go. No 1 talks, cheese. Pause this, pause this. Fish is fire. 39:19 Nah, Parks just put a little battery in my bag, low key. Parks just put a little New York battery in my bag. I was ready to let this topic just flow by smoothly. 39:27 But I don't know now, hold up for a second. If you can do what you want now. Hold up, hold up. This is for a show? Yeah. This is power. So my question to y'all, I don't 39:35 care. I'm not watching it. Tariq and I. I don't give a fuck about that. My question to y'all, cause somebody up here said 50 39:43 can't probably even make a diss track. I might've said that. I can't even. My bad, my bad. I might've said that too. And I said that I would never bet against somebody 39:51 like 50 when it comes to a diss track. And I don't know if this is a diss track. However, if it were to be. Y'all said 50 39:59 can't make a diss track? No, I said, I don't know if 50 can still, he hasn't rapped in so long. Yeah, we were just saying he's like in shape, like a rap shape. Got it. Okay. So what I'm battling 40:08 T.I. Got it. Okay. When you hear this, the first thing you think is why the fuck can't you just make a song towards T.I? That's what I think. Well, when I hear this, I'm asking, in the 40:16 event that this were the diss track, it would be hard. That's the way you do it. That would end all of that shit that Tia was talking about. Very fast. Very 40:24 fast. If I was putting the diss track out, that's the way I'm gonna do it though. I got the show. Like if he starts saying some slick shit on this and 1 of these singing niggas coming crooning. It's 40:32 towards the end. Can you start this over? It's towards the end when he starts. You want me to start from the top top? Yes. Yeah, yeah, no, I want to hear Leon Thomas again. This slick shit is at the end. Damani 40:41 gotta grab his pen if this is coming out. And do what? Fire. Previously on power That's 40:49 for a TV show. Yeah, have you heard the other things? These shit is heat Other 40:57 ones are heat. I like the canine theme song They 41:06 all crazy actually so why can't you guys stop playing with 50 when it comes to some of these dis-trap. It was a little crazy up here. It may be. I know we were 41:15 in the midst of the TI barrage. So we were in the moment. I still take TI in that, in that battle for happen. Well, cause I don't think 50 41:23 got the time to go do this 5 times. But in the event that he did, that sounds nuts. That's fire. That was amazing. Yeah. That's my favorite drop 41:31 this week. It's a minute and a half long. I'll fuck it. I'll tell you. Nah, that was crazy. Yeah, if I'm Todd Dahl, I'm doing a whole best of both worlds 41:39 project with Leon Thomas. I'm doing like when Emin Royce put that shit. I'm doing, we're doing albums. I'm getting out the way. 41:47 You run. You got it. You're too selfless, Parks. Artists are not as selfless as you. But he's an exec, too. Yeah, but he's an artist, 41:55 too. True. He's an artist exec. I'll be just doing my own little, what I love doing, fun shit, and let the fucking young bulls go ahead. Yeah, you make 42:03 a point. I wouldn't do that shit. Nice. You got a good point. You don't want to go pop up at the door. I would be all up in videos. I might do that though. I might 42:12 do that. All right, are you walking on stage when they went? Yeah. Fuck yes. All right, I'm just checking. Come on, some more people put out trash. Come on, 42:21 y'all trying to big up the drops that we enjoyed. But it was a trash day. It was a bad, it was garbage day. What else dropped? There's a lot 42:29 of singles. This one's gonna hurt. Yeba dropped. Oh, I didn't like it either, man. I really wanted. I love you. But it was too. 42:37 She's 1 of my favorites. I absolutely love her down. She's super talented. This just was too. It's too 42:45 white, poppy, which Corey said vanilla is better for Jesus. I'm like, okay. Yeah, I think I could say it's too white but Yeah, it's a vanilla to do 42:54 I felt that way too. Yeah, it's not bad music Like she's too good of a musician and singer. She was just going for something 43:02 different. Yeah for sure. Just go around. It wasn't the 1 blue-eyed soul It was a little bit more poppy. Yeah, it wasn't melancholy Yeah, but who I love same 43:10 but I'll still be there for the next year release Yeah, but if you listen and I love you and congrats on dropping a new project this 1 wasn't for me but she probably knew that already 43:20 Jeremiah put some trash out I saw it there and I didn't hit play Noma smart choice nice on my album it sound old but 43:28 it was in my new releases I think He just dropped it on streaming because I had this. Well, he could un-drop that. Damn. He could mail that to himself. That 43:37 was a bunch of hot garbage. Hot, hot garbage, too. He's too talented to even want people to hear that. Noma came out in 2014. 43:45 It's a mixtape. Oh, OK, that makes a lot more sense. Got it. All right, it might not have been trash in 2014. Yeah, that's why I was like, when I saw it, I'm like, wait. Even that album 43:53 cover was trash. Oh, not on my album, yeah. 45, I'm looking at your album covers and your album artwork too. I'm sorry, I did that my whole life, but 44:02 even more so now. I feel like some more trash came out. What else? There was some decent music though Denzel Curry put out a compilation. Are 44:10 you up on Denzel Curry? I love Denzel Curry. This was to, Not for me. Was it for you? It's like festival rap. 44:19 Yeah. A lot of distorted vocals, a lot of, I mean, a lot of features. It's a lot of Fergs on there. Shout out to Ferg. 44:27 Juicy J's on there. A bunch of artists I'm not familiar with. It's an easy listen too, it's only 8 tracks. But I enjoyed what I heard. It's gonna work out. It's only 8 tracks, I'll give it a spin. Yeah, it's 44:35 gonna work out like Coachella, 1 of those kind of rolling loud settings, so. Yeah, I could see that. Is he 1 of those acts? Yes. Yeah, he's definitely 1 of them. He's super fire, 44:43 he can rap his ass off. He's damn sure can. I just, when it's like too much alternative-y sounding, it's not for me. 44:51 Are any of you guys going to Coachella? No. Are there any Coachella people in the room? I love festivals, but I will not be going to Coachella. Roots Picnic? Maybe. 45:00 Roots Picnic, I'll be there. Yeah, yeah. Dreamville? Maybe. I think it's over this year. Oh, I thought they were rebranding it or something, but. Cole's 45:08 going on tour, man. Got it, so. I don't think that's gonna happen. Or his date for that area would be Dreamville. Yeah. You know, they 45:16 didn't announce that What what what B. Dodger said these No, that's it. That's it. I didn't talk about the tour. 45:24 I'm going to go. Yeah They did not announce that not what that was the last 1 last year. They just say something like that. Yeah No, 45:34 that's public knowledge, but they announced the dreamville No, they announced Dreamville Fest is done. Yeah, they did. No, that was last year. Yeah, that was the final 1. They 45:43 said something about rebranding though or something. Yeah, They put something out. They put feelers out there, but I don't know if it's gonna come to pass. It's 45:51 alright. I'm not going to no festival no way. You don't like festivals, so you're too old for that? I don't like people. He ain't going outside with people. What about you? I mean, but Rich Niggas said the festival's 45:59 alone in their own little tent. You might get your own tent. I'm going to Rollin' Out this year, I want you to go with me. Which 1? And I'm gonna have a booth. 46:08 Which 1 you going to? A booth? I don't know, nigga. Man, you going to Black Effect Festival?

Okay, nigga, yeah. 46:25 And you got some stuff going on. This nigga drive a fucking, it'll be an article come out, Oh Joe Biden just made $73 billion last 46:34 week. Coming next day, we eat grilled cheeses together. I don't say nothing about it. You see I'm on a little black effect. Oh, okay Bida 46:52 I did mean to tell you too, you left last week and hit us with an Irish goodbye. Oh I did? A little Irish. It's my favorite way to leave here. 47:01 No, he moves fast. I thought I said bye to everybody, no? You did, but you was out the door fast. And I meant to tell you that we do like a brunch, 47:10 like a brunch slash dinner on Fridays. At least eat with us before you go. I got that done. You see the chefs and all that? I didn't know what that was about. B. 47:18 Dot, it was before me, we ate double mint. That's something I implemented. I was like, if you want a real bitch in here, we need a chef. 47:27 Wow. Yo, that's true, yo, she's our union leader. I am the union leader. Yeah, for sure. So I'm not sure if you're rushing out of here, but you know what I mean? I didn't know that. Slow 47:35 down, get you a little crème brûlée. Yeah, have a bite, man. Have to do a little sandwich. Nice sandwich, nice sandwich. Nice menu today. Good to know. Yeah. All right, let's see. 47:43 I know it's some more trash out there. Hold up. Oh, I have something for you too, Joe. What you got? So I was, after I left, I went home and did some cleaning up 47:51 and I was, I found something I ain't see like in over a decade. This was something you gave me. I was like, before I put this out on eBay, I was like, I wonder if you remember 47:59 this. Do you remember this? Hey, that's the Joe Button hookah. Can I see that? Wow. Wow, man. If 48:07 you open it, you can smoke that Joe Button pack, too. I never used it. But you got it. Give me this motherfucker. It's the Joe Button hookah. And the special 48:15 part of it is you don't smoke hookah stuff, you smoke wet in it. This is so... Yeah. Joe, enough. This for D.O.S.S. But no, he literally 48:23 had... This is so cool. This was a good hookah set. No, it wasn't a good hookah. No, but open it, you got the thing in there too. Still unused. The pack of shisha. He got the coals. 48:32 Oh, you never used it at all. Ain't got the dust. And the shisha in there too. All right, Mona. Thank you, girl. I don't even 48:40 think I got the Joe Budden. You ain't have. I didn't know it existed. B dot. Yeah, I did. I collect things. I was about to say, this so matches 48:49 what I think of, I feel like you- That Joe Button pack. Oh my God. Wow. The Button blend. The Button blend. The Button blend. 48:58 What's it like with 10 years old? Hey Mona, what's in that button blend? There you go. I feel like, Bida, I feel like you live in like 49:06 a, just a hip hop museum. Oh, I bet he does, yeah. I like to collect things, man. That's crazy, man. I just ain't even got this. Is it like, 49:14 expired? Smell a little embalmony.

If that's what we on today. 5 minutes in the scene when you caught me ugly, you started it, so whatever. Yeah, but I tried to squash it 49:31 too. Okay, so what? That smelled good. Now we can squash it. Now it's over. Now that you got the last 1. Now I got the last 1. That'll be good. This 49:39 is 5, Beatup. Pass it back to Beatup. Yeah, you was giving out hookahs and shit. I don't know where that was from, but... That's how you know my album wasn't going to sell but 10 copies. Do 49:47 you have another 1? Do you have another 1 of these?

All right, let me see. I know it's some more trash 50:04 out there. Hold up, they keep interrupting me, but it's trash out there. It was a trashy ass week. The guy Akeem dropped. Who? Akeem Ali, 50:12 what's his name? Okay, you gonna get fired. Why? You gonna get fired today. I don't know what name I can say and I can't say. You can't say Akeem Ali. Why, 50:20 y'all don't like him? In hour 1. He's not big enough? Yes, unless he pays. I didn't know, I didn't know. I didn't know. Unless, who's gonna pay 50:29 if we just come right off the hip with fucking Akeem Ali and La Russell. Come on, this is Paola, nigga. The 50:37 fuck is you going? We are selling these broadcasts. Pharrell clapped back at Kanye's gospel run. He 50:45 dropped a gospel album with voices of fire Which when it first came on I thought it was just people singing over 50:54 random Pharrell beats cuz I can't remember what this bass line is from but it's from something else He used the same bass line on something I can't remember 51:02 what it is or something very similar Anyway, it's a whole it's a whole gospel album with a choir 51:11 Okay But all for our production, I mean is pusher coming on in some point Is 51:19 Malice coming on? Turn this shit to for more trash more trash No, 51:28 no the gospel Grammy yeah, you might get that right We're gonna go play over there. And this is Ophanim? That's what it is, yeah. Trash! 51:38 I listen to it. Going to the days where I'm forcing a fucking album opinion on some of this shit. It's Trash. You're 51:46 not wrong. Let's see here. Oh shit, Chef G came out. And I now wanna say it's not that great. I fuck with Chef G. Yeah, I do too but the 51:54 song isn't. He's a Republican though. He's not a good record. What just? Yeah, he's a Republican song. We love Chef 52:02 G Joe buddy. That was good. That was a real beautiful. That was really good. And a 52:10 couple of R&B slaps came out, but none of it's trash. Yeah. None of it's trash. Any more trash we miss? Any old trash we miss? For real, I miss the days 52:18 where you could just come to work and just call some shit trash. It was a lot this week, so. A lot of trash. I ain't even listened to a lot of Lucy's by people that 52:26 aren't good rappers. Okay, yeah, no. Yep. No, not today, Not today. I knew it was a bad week when I seen all types of Van Halen and fucking Who won my 52:35 new music singles. I was like, ah, yeah, slow week. Did you guys see the debate they're having about rappers without a classic? Yes. 52:43 Yes. Yes. I did. I've been very excited about that conversation waiting to have it with y'all. It is a spirited conversation that they're having out there. It's tricky. 52:51 So a list went around. He wrote, he said, the top 10 all-time great MCs without classic solo album. He's an idiot. You 53:00 want 10 to 1 or 1 to 10? 10 to 1. 10 to 1. Number 10, Cannabis. True. Number 9, Andre 3000. Number- 53:09 That's an asterisk. Put an asterisk in there. No, that's wrong. Well, it depends on what- Unless you mean rap albums. Solo. Are you saying solo rap albums? His solo 53:17 album is a classic album. No, it is, but it's not a- that is incorrect he might see he might see the solo is a classic no not a 53:25 solo album who else is on rap album who else is on that part that part agree with that's an out that's something if he says solo rap album I can see You know Jones has a feature on it. It's a solo album. 53:34 Lauren Album, y'all, saying a rap album. It's not. And it got her in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It got her in the Music Hall of Fame. Okay. If your 1 album is great enough, 53:42 then it don't matter the fucking genre. It succeeds all... But I have a... What? Are we talking rap albums? But the argument is rap albums. I can see you saying Andre doesn't have a, that's not a rap 53:50 album. But if you say- But that wasn't a comment. They said rappers, which he is, MCs without a classic solo. Without a classic album. I'm telling 53:58 y'all. I'm saying I assumed he meant rap. Just because There's no other way to put Andre on that list because Love Below is a classic. Can you buy the Love Below by itself? No, but that's- It's not a 54:06 solo album. That's it. And that's what they're saying. I want you on that. It's an outcast album. If you buy that- It's an Andre album. It's an Andre album. Fam, go buy 54:14 the Love Below. You put them together, it's an outcast album. You cannot buy them separately. It's an outcast double disc. That's what the speaker 54:22 box to love below. You can't separate them just because we want to say we like disc 2 versus disc 1 or whatever the case may be. I'm talking about- 2 different CDs. 54:30 Yeah, you talking about consumerism. Right, when Andre got the Grammy for hey shit It was Andre. He got it wasn't outcast. I got it. He went up on his feet you talking 54:39 about he wasn't there You're talking about consumerism. I'm talking about what it the creation of making an album by yourself Is there and 54:47 that's what he did 30 plus minutes of music by 1 artist out of project. There's nobody else there. He went in there, he made 1. How they sold it, I don't give a 54:55 fuck about it. All right, cool. But go ahead. Yeah, keep going. Hey, Busta Rhymes, he has Debatable. I'll let you finish. And we 55:03 want to finish the list, okay. Busta's got a bunch of near classics. He don't have a classic. Yeah, Big Bang is great for example, but it's not a classic. I love that. He does not have a classic. The Coming 55:11 Day. All of them shit. I agree with that. Yeah, I agree. Bust makes a list. I'm upset. 7, Ludacris. I also 55:19 agree. Yeah, I probably agree. Great albums, great, not classic albums. Lot of great singles. Lot of classic singles. Classic 55:27 singles. No, Ludacris don't have a classic album. You don't? I don't think he has a unanimous classic album. He's got a bunch of great albums though. Yeah, he has great. He doesn't have a classic. He's 55:35 got at least 3 albums that I think are right in that mix. We know what classic is, right? Well, all classics aren't created equal though. Not according to Jermaine Dupri, who came up here and said, 55:44 a classic is a classic, and if it ain't, it ain't. Yeah. And he used that, what he used for an example, we were talking 55:52 about Carl Thomas emotional, and he said, is that in the same ballpark as confessions and the whole room said no and he said well it ain't a classic I think there's a cult 56:00 classic in a classic though yes I think there's personal classics nah I agree that's your favorite yeah 56:08 I don't think that's fair. It's just like in sports, there's Hall of Famers, right? Everybody's not in the same level, even the Hall of Fame. Max players, everybody's not the same. There's 56:16 always gonna be a best among the best So like I don't like I'm okay saying Carl Thomas is a classic album is still acknowledging that it's not fucking professions I 56:25 can say confessions ain't thriller facts and they all and they all classics to me. What makes a classic album impact influence Longevity, I think it's 56:33 1 of the biggest ality, of course Not necessarily. I don't think musicality is that you don't think so not necessarily. So why are we here? The 56:41 music has to sound good. It can have a classic moment musicality music sounding good or 2 different things I was gonna say I use them interchangeably then they're not okay So 56:49 it could be a very good musician and not make music that you want to hear. And there could be something that is not particularly musically profound in terms of execution, 56:57 great musicianship, but it's still a classic album. Yeah. You have an example of that? Where do you want to start? In rap. In 57:06 rap? Shit, a lot of early Pharrell stuff wasn't musically that deep. He ate me a moonup, brother. Well, I think 57:14 those are maybe classic moments. Okay. But might not necessarily be classic albums. I think clips for some of the classic. I do so. I believe so as well. I think a lot 57:22 of stuff that Swiss did is not musically profound. That's a great something about Swiss last week. And I, I, it rubbed me the wrong way. 57:30 Really grounded my gear. Cause like Swiss is music. You can still play to this day and it still sounds good. Yeah. But it's not music cat the musicality isn't great 57:40 would be poor yeah I disagree with that okay you like the Casio The I'm not even talking about the sounds that he 57:48 picked the actual playing the keyboard playing wasn't particularly great a lot of times it was very even DMX should refer to them as a simple 57:56 as 1 finger great record cassio and that's back to my boy. That's exactly my point is musicality does not necessarily infer classic. It doesn't have to be like 58:04 super technical. Do you think that has to be? If you're talking about musicality, you're talking about a certain level of proficiency. No, you are. 58:13 All right, let me do what my brother Ice would do. Let's look up musicality for a minute. Because as I understand musicality, it is about the performance, it's about talent, it's about- 58:22 Virtuosity. Virtuosity, yeah, as opposed to it sounding good. I'm not saying that- Some songs can be very basic, whispers songs. I mean, there are things you could make that are very basic that are amazing, But I 58:30 wouldn't say that that demonstrates musicality. I'm not saying he's Beethoven, but I'm just saying like, I think he's just replaying the semantic Olympics. Yeah, but I think that's why we talk 58:38 about each other. I think that's why we talk about each other. What's the definition? Oh. Musicality is the sensitivity to, knowledge of, 58:46 or innate talent for music, encompassing the ability to interpret and express music with emotional depth, technical skill, and rhythmic precision. It 58:54 involves understanding phrasing, dynamics, and tone to convey emotion or to tell a story through performance, dancing, or listening." That does eliminate Rough Rider's anthem. Yes, 59:03 that's not musicality, even though it sounds good. My biggest thing with classic, I mean, I think the definition of classic is something that is above anything that's 59:11 happening in its time period with a component of Longevity, I think, is the definition of classic, somewhere in the 59:19 ballpark. So I think those are the 2 most important things. Is it better than everything else, and does it last a long time? And does it change, like for me, classic, it has to be like a game 59:27 changer as well. Do you believe in instant classics? Yeah. Yeah. Illmatic was an instant classic. Give Rich was an instant classic. Yeah. Yeah. 59:35 Love Supreme was an instant classic. I think you have a is the I think I know it just says the music writer was an instant. That's a great example. That was a debate like when we were 59:44 when I was still the music journalism, like, it's like, are we willing to give this to a 10 or a 5 mic, whatever the number is in the venue was like, because the question was always, could we project 59:52 this 10 years from now? Are we gonna still be, will this still matter? Will we still be listening to it? That's the challenge. Not, is this better than everybody else? That's for me, like a lot of times the difference between something getting 4 and a half and 1:00:01 5 was always, or 9 and a half and 10 was always like, will this matter in a decade? Will this stay in the test of time? Yeah, and it's hard to know that. And so to me, an instant classic, I 1:00:09 think we give that out too fast, but when I heard Blueprint, I knew it was a classic. When I heard, like you said, Ready to Die, Illmatic, I knew these were classics. Good Kid, Mad City. 1:00:17 Good Kid is a perfect example. I mean, that to me was like an obvious 1. Get Rich. Like Get Rich is an obvious 1. Yeah. That's another 1. But all of those 1:00:25 are on the same level. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. They're not created equal. Like Good Kid Mad City isn't illmatic. But they're both classics. But they all belong 1:00:34 in that park. They're at the same party, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The levels, once you get to the party, I don't care about. But everybody has to be able 1:00:42 to get in this party. Where we at on the list? We were at Ludacris. That was 7. Word of mouth is updated over the night. Number 6, Inspector Deck. 1:00:50 For sure. Love that. 5 is Black Thought. I agree. Yeah, Solo, yeah, for sure. 4 is Fabulous. I hate that. And those are probably the 2 1:00:58 best rappers in the world without a classic, Ad Feral Munch. Well, it turns out. If it hadn't got yanked off shelves, I think 1:01:06 it would be a different. I agree. I agree with that. And here's just 1 asterisk on Black Thought is that particularly after Malik and 1:01:15 Dice are around Roots albums, I mean, he's the only 1 rapping. Fair, but by that 1:01:23 point, to me, I don't know if any of those Roots albums were quite in the same category. Would you say, Like 1:01:31 phrenology and all that stuff? The 1 right before phrenology. The 1 ahead, Eric, about doing it. Things fall apart? Things fall apart. Malik was still on to that. 1:01:40 That's true. He was. And then you're right. Phrenology is not a classic, even though it's great. The park smoking shit this episode. You all going to keep challenging 1:01:48 him? I'm not challenging him, I'm thinking it through. Y'all ain't learned, back him down. Y'all still trying? I don't care. He's right. Damn, boy. I 1:01:57 was just thinking about what a classic was. Sure. No, he's right. No, we are. He got me. He's right, he's right, what the fuck we gonna do? Yo, 1:02:05 go on, guys. Keep going. Like I said, 4 is fabulous. No argument from me. Yeah, I agree. I'm with you on that. Agreed, 100%. 3, Jadakiss. I'm with 1:02:13 you on that. No argument from me. Yeah, I agree. I agree. I love Kiss, but I don't think he's got a classic album. Very good albums. Very good albums. He's 1:02:22 the Allen Iverson of rap. Like he's checked all the boxes, just don't got that championship ring. Okay. Yeah. 1:02:33 2, Method Man. No argument for me. No argument. First album was dope, The second album was dope. That's where it stopped for me So neither of 1:02:41 them were quite classic. So no 1 about the cow but classic. That's what I'm saying Well, I can't was good. Does that count? Well, that's something I saw Cowdo 1:02:49 man, y'all just be just to cows. Good. I was a good classic moment I think to like coming off the Mary record, and Mary record isn't even on the album. 1:02:57 It's not, yeah. Wait, that came before, because Mary, that came out in 95. No, it's on, I mean. No, it's a different version. Yeah, a different version. The remix came out 1:03:05 afterwards. And then 1 is Grand Puba. Damn. Brand newbie man. That first Grand Puba album was really good. 1:03:13 But also is Grand Puba really a better rapper than the other 9 people we just said? Don't be stupid, Mark. Just say that Grand Pooper, wait, you think Grand Pooper's better than Black 1:03:21 Thought? That's your argument? No, but you said 9 other people. Grand Pooper. It was a top 10 list. I'm saying he's not better than all 9 of them. Grand Pooper is better than a lot of people on that list. Yes, but he's not better than all 9 of them is what I'm saying. 1:03:29 I don't think it was ranking the MCs. No, it wasn't. I don't think it was. Yeah, no, it's not. He went 10 to 1. I thought he was saying Gran Cooper is the greatest rapper of all time 1:03:38 without a soul. Oh hell. That's what I'm saying. I was like, come on. I don't think that was a very good, very good rapper and a style icon, man. I 1:03:46 fucking yes. Not getting enough fucking respect. Before y'all call, I'm not taking nothing away from Grandpa Poole. He's 1 of my favorites. I would just say he's a better than Andre and Black Thought. That's all I would say. Fair enough. 1:03:54 This ain't... Damn, Andre's not gonna be number 9 on this list. Well, that's why I said at the beginning, I didn't do his idiot. Is there Anybody that that list is missing? 1:04:05 Tretch. Okay. Yeah. Not bad. Fennel by nature. Not bad at that. Well, it should be not trying to have my 1:04:13 Jersey car for both. But okay. Old story. I'm also didn't put out very much solo music, so. Is everybody up here of the opinion? I'm 1:04:22 asking, just asking. Is everybody up here of the opinion that Drake has a classic album? Yes. I think Drake has a classic album. Take care of it as a couple. I think he 1:04:30 has more than 1. He got a couple classic albums. And if you count mixtapes so far going. Who moaning, what's up? Mola? You good, you all right? I didn't say a thing, fellas, keep going. 1:04:38 I thought somebody was moaning on the Drake classic talk. That 1 used to stir shit up it did the Drake classic well, that's why I asked it No, we've had we moved past that 1:04:46 as a culture and it's a sort of classic albums of his yeah to me Take care if you're reading this is too late as a classic It's take care of 1:04:54 views for me. I Don't love you. So that same way it's a very good album, but I wouldn't put it quite there I think Take Care is the 1. That's the only 1. That's the only 1 for me. I think 1:05:02 it's pretty impossible to debate that. Yeah, I think that's the only 1. Yeah. You don't count So Far Gone? I got Take Care, So Far Gone, and Nothing Was the Same. 1:05:11 So Far Gone is out of this world. Nothing Was the Same was incredible too. Yeah, that's probably a good 1 too. Nothing Was the Same is a classic album to me too. Yeah, that was a good 1 too. Go read 1:05:19 it. I think he's got a lot of 9 out of 10. I think he's got a lot of amazing albums but for me again the classic question and Drake makes so much good music it's a different bar maybe maybe 1:05:27 I'm being unfair but for me Take Care is like an undisputed classic and everything else is like right under that. Let me ask y'all, to y'all does a classic, on a classic, 1:05:35 can you have skips? Yes. Yeah, absolutely. For sure. Yes. The Rilla has a skip. I don't believe in full of albums. What's the skip on The Rilla? 1:05:44 The joint with Paul McCartney. That's not a skip. Ended out on. It doesn't fit as much, but it's not a skip. It's just a rapper in my mind. The Girl Is Mine is not a skip. The Girl 1:05:52 Is Mine is not a great record. Ain't that the last song in him? Yes, his first album was a classic. DMX. DMX for sure. Absolutely. Yeah. Without 1:06:00 question. Undoubtedly, instant classic. Instant, yeah, effects. Aight, you was saying? I'm trying to think. Yes, I think you can have skips 1:06:08 on a I don't for sure I don't think it's like I've had skips on it, and I think that's a classic. I don't think classic I mean it's perfect. Yeah, I don't believe it's fall it flawless. Yeah, yeah 1:06:16 I think there are some flawless albums though that are classics. Really? Yeah. I think every album has a skip on there. I just had this conversation with J-Wan. What's 1:06:24 the skip on Illmatic? 1 time for your mind. You think that's a great song? I just can't. Really? 1:06:33 I'm stunned. Like I could live without that song. It's not a bad record, but it's not. It's not skip. See maybe we just. I'm not mad at that Tate. You think it's a 1:06:41 bad record? It's not a horrible word. Skip. He said skip. It's a skip. I'm not mad if somebody were to skip that 1:06:50 song. Bad record, skip don't mean bad record though. No, that's 2 different things. What does it mean? What does it skip? A skip is just, I don't need this. I don't need to hear it. Yeah, I can 1:06:58 still enjoy this project without that. Don't make it bad. Back to a Paul McCartney record. 1:07:06 Michael Jackson. I think the Paul McCartney fits that 1 okay but I think there are albums that don't have any I'm with you yeah I think I don't have even have a skip on it like I don't think there's a skip on oh y'all 1:07:15 talking rap nevermind oh if you're not if you take rap out there's a lot about it say Don L Jones way I want to be is without a skip there's not 1 on there maybe just 1:07:24 maybe 2 albums that don't have a skip on it for me. My Life and What's the 411 for me. And I throw the remix album in too. You know what I mean? If we're talking about that, jazz, I mean, to me, Love Supreme, obviously 1:07:32 Ain't Got No Skips, all 4 acts agree. I mean, I can think of 1000000000, you know, we used to get into 13, 14 tracks, it gets tougher. Yeah, I mean, even when it comes to rap, 1:07:40 like my favorite rapper is Jay-Z, there's moments I skip on his albums too. Nas too, you know? Yes. 1:07:48 I think it's too much. I don't skip shit though. Like I don't skip nothing on Black Album. Not 1 song. Change clothes is terrible. I used to, 1:07:57 even going back, I grew to like, I think we had this a long time ago, I wasn't really feeling threatened like that. But then the more I really listened to it, oh shit, he's 1:08:05 killing it. She's talking like, yeah. B-Dot, there's no time you want to hear Change Clothes. For what? It doesn't belong on that album. 1:08:13 Like you could literally take that off. Nah. And the album's still great. Change clothes got to stay on. It's a great song. That's what I mean. Like, sometimes skip is just about your preference. Yeah. 1:08:22 Which is different than like a track. That's why I make it equated as bad. Cause to me, like, if it's just like, I don't like that song as much. Like I don't like Testify on B, Comments B, right? I just don't like 1:08:30 it. What? I get it. I get it. It's a great song, I just don't like to hear it all the time. That's what I'm saying, but it's not a skip, it's just not my preference. That's why I make the distinction between 1:08:38 like a skip and a bad record. I don't think nobody in the world has ever said that about Zypia ever. Wow, I know, I'm like 1 of the few people that don't, I get I'm the minority on it, It's a great song. 1:08:46 If you listen to it. You know what it is? Because it's a twisted end and once I know how it ends, I don't need to hear it every time. I get it, she did it. Yeah, she did it. I don't need to hear 1:08:54 that 50 more times. She did it. Yeah. True. Okay. But like you listen to Blueprint 3, I'm not playing Empire State of Mind. I'm not playing a lot of 1:09:02 songs on Blueprint 3. Why are we playing Blueprint 3? So he and I are in the minority about that. I like Blueprint 3 a lot more than most people. 1:09:10 I liked it, but it's not in his conversation. It's not a classic conversation. All right, just leave it to classics. But I'm just saying, you skip records, you know? Dynasty 1:09:18 isn't a glass word. You skip most of it. Word. Most of that wouldn't say. Blueprint 3 is with a fucking diverse record I like, right? 1:09:27 No, that was- You took my back in the car. You took my back in the car. You took my back in the car. That whole album throw away. Yeah, you took my Fuck With Me, you know I got it. Oh man. Yeah. You talking about Fuck With Me, you know I got it. Throw 1:09:35 that whole album out. What's with Blueprint 3? Empire State of Mind, Realistic Gats, Stars Born, Death of Auto Tune, The Joint where he's killing 1:09:43 Beans and all them at the opening. Don't read this to you. Oh that's not too worse. Oh Reminder. Already Home, You got Already Home on there. It's some trash. I love Already 1:09:51 Home. Already Home is 1 of my favorite songs of all time. Already Home's on Blueprint 3. Yes. Oh yeah, now Blueprint 3 got heat on it. That's a good idea. No, Blueprint 3 got heat on it. That's a good idea. 1:09:59 You're taking the right 1. By the way, Welcome to Joe. He'll clown you for like 2 minutes and it'll be oh, yeah. Yeah, that shit was fire I'm thinking a Magna Carter. Yeah, Carter's ass. That's your bottom 3 That 1:10:11 may be the other than Kingdom Come that might be the worst We're getting too passionate And 1:10:20 I saw you slip in 444 that's blessed. It goes in there is amazing. It's a great album That's an amazing fucking album. You had a Sam Song hook. And I ain't even open it. That's 1 of the both songs. 1:10:28 And I ain't even no big whole thing. That shit all in, I don't care. What do you like on there? All of it. He confused. I'm like, that's a good 1:10:37 album, man. No, it's not. No, it's not. If you would've erased Jay-Z's name from that and put Fabulous' name on it, you would call it a classic. Fab would've never dropped that. 1:10:45 The first June, the Just December, like the first June, all of it. I don't care what y'all saying. You shouldn't be putting a guy that we just said doesn't have a classic 1:10:53 album in a Jay-Z conversation. I'm just saying if you would have put that, erase the names and put somebody else on there. It probably would 1:11:01 have been A great fab album. No it wouldn't. No it would not. I don't think Maticato is as bad as people make it out to be. It's not a great JZ album. It also 1:11:09 has, It's a bad JZ album. Arguably the worst beat drop in the history of beat drops on Holy Grail. Yes. Yeah. 1:11:18 Picasso baby on there. Come on. Tom Ford. Tom Ford. Fuck if you know I got it, I love that. That's my song. That's my shit song. I love that song. Fuck up this 1:11:26 world. And then I can listen to nothing else on there until maybe On The Run with Beyonce. No. No. I said maybe. No, On The Run is. I like the opening, I like Beaches Better. I actually just like that little. On The Run is 1:11:34 classic. Beaches Better is cool. I like that shit he be talking. And then I'm good. I like Beaches Better too. And that's it though. Then I turn the album off. Who do you think has the most solo classics is it 1:11:42 Jay-z Kanye? Oh, that's a good question most solo classic Kanye we say 1:11:50 y'all saying 3 or 4 4 I'm assuming you're saying the first 3 plus, plus, plus Twisted Fantasy, my dark Twisted Fantasy? 808s. 1:11:59 Oh yeah, 808s might be in that conversation. 808s is in that conversation. But 808s, I realize is cilantro. You either love it or hate it. So let's say 4, because those are like uncontroversial right 1:12:07 now. Now let's go to Hov, Reasonable Doubt. Blueprint. Blueprint. Black. Black album. Any other classic. I don't put volume 2. For me 1:12:15 too, and I like American Gangster too. For me those 2 are also in there. Volume 1 is his third best album. I love Volume 1. Volume 1. It gets so disrespected. I agree 1:12:23 with you on that. So to me, they're in the same. It just depends, to me, Hov and Kanye just depends on them extra albums, which you think. If 1:12:31 you love 808s, then you might put Ye up there. If you, for me, American Gangsta and, you know, it's like a slept on classic that puts Hov above him in that, but they both in the same 1:12:39 conversation. Anybody else in that conversation? Nas got 3. Tribe has, oh, we talking solo though, Solo Nas got yeah, Nas has 1:12:48 maybe 4 We got ill mad. Are you it was really mad? It was okay. It's still medical for radio now to get 1:12:56 to the classic conversation Okay, so still my classic don't matter. Hell yeah, then he got at least 1 Hitboy classic too, right? I'm not putting magic. I love the 1 with, what 1:13:04 is it called? Y'all speeding again. Slow down. If there's a fight to be had, then how do you feel about Steel Manic? Steel Manic is cool. Not a classic album? Absolutely 1:13:12 a classic album. Definitely a classic album. How is it not a classic album? You know what, I might be speaking from a level bias because I'm not the biggest Nas guy So I'll tap out to all the great parties. 1:13:21 I'll trash it is I'll forgive him for that I get 1:13:29 why people some people thought the still medic got an extra push because of just cuz of ether and cuz of the moment But when you go back and listen to that album now, it's still, to me it holds up. 1:13:37 I've actually listened to that album in the last few months. It holds up? Not a classic, again, that's a different bar that we're speaking about. I wouldn't die on that 1:13:45 hill, but. I think Life Is Good is more of a classic, but. I think Life Is Good is better than Stillmatic. I do too. In terms of classic conversation, I think. I think 1:13:53 it's a better album. I'm missing something. Life Is Good, Life Is Good was great. We getting crazy now. Life Is Good was great. Well, you just had a Blue Pen 3 moment. Life Is Good is better than Stillmatic. Life 1:14:01 Is Good is great. In terms of classic. What is on? That was his Hear My Dear. Yeah, I mean, I 1:14:09 think, and I love Steelmatic. I just think Steelmatic has a couple, you said Skip, there's a few songs of Steelmatic that don't hold up as well. Yeah, I think the latter half of the album kind of gets 1:14:17 a little bit murky, but overall I really enjoy that album It's about 20 years old this year, and I still maybe it's too early to look at the hip-boy stuff But I think there's at 1:14:25 least 1 classic among that. I like magic a lot. I like magic. That's my favorite 1 Yeah, I love King's disease too, but but the magic is up there. 1:14:33 Oh, you're glazing now Can't forget Kendrick you talk about How many is can you like for shit Kendrick 1:14:43 I like let's see all of them good Kid, Pimp, Damn. Y'all going crazy. Wait, I don't know if 1:14:51 Pimp is gonna do it. Y'all are going absolutely crazy. He got at least 4. It's almost time for my favorite part. I ain't gonna lie. I absolutely, you know, I do not fuck with To Pimp a Butterfly. Why? 1:15:00 But to deny that album, like to just impact, like y'all spoke about, longevity, all of that shit, I can't even do that. You can't not call that a price double. So damn, Pimba 1:15:08 Butterfly, Good Kid, Mad City. Good Kid, Mad City, that's 3. I think Mr. Morale is like a 4 and a half mic album. That's a good album, but I wouldn't put it in the classics. Not classics. I think G&X is knocking on the door 1:15:16 as early. That's the 1. You think it's better than Mr. Morale? Yes. Y'all love G&X way more than I do, but I think Kendrick got 3 in a possible. Yeah, I'm 1:15:24 not mad at that. If you start section 80, he should be in that conversation. Can I ask, Since we started with your music, how many Joe Button classics are 1:15:32 there in your opinion? In my opinion? Yeah. 17. I still can't believe you can't do it. 17. Make it safe for albums. 1:15:40 It don't matter. Anything I have. You know what I mean? That Moon Music 2 was a team changer. Moon Music 2, Moon Music 3, all of Love Lost. So you guys say he 1:15:48 has 3 classics? Yes. How many do you say? None of my music is going to be recognized by the public as a classic. That's why I want to know how your friends 1:15:57 feel about you. Oh, they love me. Parts, how many do you say? 1233, you say 1:16:05 3. How many do you say? 2, 4, and some Love Lost. Some. Some Love Lost. The good stuff. I give 1:16:13 Joe a 1. You say 1. Yeah. Thanks. You got any other shit starter 1:16:21 questions? I'm doing my best. You say that then you put your little fucking face on. No, I really want to know what people thought. What about him? I agree. What 1:16:29 about him? Okay, That's a good question. That is. 2 for sure. Slim and Marshall? Yeah. Slim, Slim Shady 1:16:37 LP, Marshall M&M Show. Yeah. I love M&M Show. That's where I jumped off the wagon for a second. I felt like M&M Show was like blueprint for 1:16:45 G-Unit to rise because he used a lot of those samples. It was so far from, it started to move too far from the hip hop that I love. I think it's 1:16:53 a preference thing. Slim and Marshall I think are great. I actually love Marshall, Mathers is still my favorite 1. Don't look away now. 1:17:06 What time is it, Joe? Jesus fucking Mary and Joseph. And it wasn't you moment. It wasn't these fucking 1:17:14 dweebs over here. How many does him have now? It's like, oh, it was just Black History Month.

Back to Rap 1:19:04 Voices, I do like Back to Back Weeks, new Psy High. Oh shit. Let's hear a little bit. I didn't hear 1:19:12 this. This is the good breakup, the good music breakup.

What's up? I'm always down to receive an apology. It just, you know, we had some debates about Bruno Mars 1:20:05 versus J Cole. You want to get ahead of it? Not a lot of them. I like this. No, no, we had some doubts. You say it. And you know, we not only, some of 1:20:13 us, I won't say no names. Disagreeing. You and his show did that stupid dap y'all do when you think smart niggas are agreeing. You 1:20:22 did that dumbass shit. You got a secret ass shit? Yeah, they look so doofy. They look so doofy. But anyway. Let him continue. I might have agreed with that too. I must say Parks was there too. We 1:20:30 was all agreeing. I'm never going to call Parks doofy. Y'all 2 are doofy. Anyway, we disagree that J. 1:20:38 Cole would do better to brutalize the fact, we may have even scoffed. We may have even guffawed. Y'all did. You did. You did. You did. You're very disrespectful, very. Very disrespectful. And 1:20:46 the numbers have come out. Mm-hmm, and it wasn't that close you were absolutely right We were absolutely wrong. And so I want to on behalf 1:20:54 of only me Humbly apologize. What's that? You were correct at to you and jacob. Yes. 1:21:03 Yes, exactly work. It may have a different take I don't want to speak for him. That's all I'm saying. That's cool, that's cool. Apology accepted. Thank you, sir. Bruno, fuck. Really? 1:21:11 You're gonna let him off like that? Yeah, yeah. We good. What did you want him to do? Shit, when I be right. Got a basket in? When I'm 1:21:20 right? I take advantage when I'm right. Take a victory lap? Yeah, I don't give a fuck if I'm right 2 times the same day. It's going to be an 1:21:28 event. Bruno Mars. Anybody here going back to that Bruno Mars album? Nope. I still play that same song I like, the first 1. No. Track 1:21:37 1. Cha cha cha? No, the other 1. What's that shit called? Don't worry about it. Bida, how's your R&B music game? I know you 1:21:45 stove god cooks out. Stove god, Got my jazz board on extra tight. I know you rock Marcy'd out, but how's your R&B knowledge? 1:21:54 I'm pretty, I'm all right. You play music when you fuck? Yeah. You play like MOP or do you play like? Both. You know, band from TV. That's 1:22:02 true. Posse in the pussy. Reservoir doors. Mashed up pussy is great. You gotta smash like DMX or something. OC time's up. She 1:22:10 lacked the minerals and vitamins Mark you missed you missed you missed 1 of 1:22:18 those killer lines in the 50 cent theme song. Yeah, I missed the actual bars on this joint. He said... 1:22:27 That's why you got to listen to lyrics, man. I heard it for the first time with y'all. He said, I'm back on my dope boy grammar, your daddy made your mama eat every box in Atlanta. 1:22:36 Whoa, fuck. Freak shit, people, yeah, he, yeah, he. That could be open to interpretation, though. Oh! Nah, that's pretty straightforward. What's up? Wait, 1:22:44 wait, wait. We don't know if he's talking directly towards TI about, with that line, but. Well, I didn't see the show yet, you're right. Power's not even set in Atlanta! The 1:22:53 shit is in New York! Yeah, nah, that line is doing a lot of damage. That's a lot of munching, yeah. I don't know about munching. Your 1:23:02 mom, yeah. Yeah, that's crazy. T.I.'s already firing back with, you know, on Instagram. Damani put out another record. Did he? 1:23:10 Is it good? I didn't love it. I didn't love the angle. I could play if you want. Nah. My brother. Yeah. We shouted out Akeem Ali. 1:23:18 You're right, you're right, you're right. La Russell and Lil Jon in Hour 1. Yeah, you're right, you're right. And Domani, he got all the praise 1:23:27 from me on the first drop. That's what it's gonna get from me. Gotcha. 1 Domani drops. 1:23:35 That's fair. Yeah, we still gotta sell advertising. Just 1 more T.I. Piece outside of this beef. He said that, or maybe you can say he admitted that leaving Atlantic 1:23:43 Records was a bad choice. But wait, slow down a little bit. The 50 line, I think it's impactful, but can it 1:23:51 be so impactful with the first bar from Hater to Love It? Oh, yeah. Yes. Still can. 1:24:00 Yeah, going up, I was confused. My mama kissing the girl. Yeah, it's a little different. Your mom kissing a girl is different than your mom being hold out by your daddy and eat box across the, 1:24:09 across the Dixon. Also, when it come to- Okay, you're twisting my arm. Yeah. When it come to battling- And I'm not saying that's true, y'all. Just be clear. When it 1:24:17 comes to Balin, when you going on somebody that's not remotely involved in it, does that matter? Because Tiny don't rap. Tiny ain't a part of it. 1:24:25 But that's what his angle's been, just Tiny. And that was mom. Well, that's what- No, no, no. No, no, no. He's talking to 1 of them kids. He's talking 1:24:33 about Tiny. He's talking to kids. Talking to kids. Oh, I'm slow. And it goes along with the sex responding to the kids rap Yeah, the 1:24:41 first line of 50s shit talking is towards his son. It's not towards market slow today. Thank you Yeah, but I'm just saying just in general. Does that matter? Yeah, 1:24:49 I don't like that. I don't like it. I don't like it at all. I don't like going to Tiny at all. I don't like that, but in 1:24:58 my heyday, when I was dissing somebody, I was guaranteed to diss somebody who was cool with you. Yeah, now me, if I'm talking shit, I'm talking about everybody. Yeah, maybe 1:25:06 not a family member or 1 of your kids or your wife. I'm not gonna go with that. But if the kid is rapping at you, then... There are no rules in fact about that. Yeah, but the wife was never rapping 1:25:14 at him. The wife never said she didn't mind her own business. The wife is literally why the kids got in this. Exactly. Like she, you could have kept it T.I. But, you know. 1:25:22 It's not right. It's not right, but I understand. You don't get to dictate how somebody respond to what they perceive as a level of disrespect. And that's why I didn't get on the kids when they came at 50, mama's like, 1:25:30 I understood it, even though I didn't like it. And now it's right, I mean, I'm seeing Benzino wear t-shirts with 50s dead mom on it. It's like, it's just getting further. 1:25:39 No, no, this ain't about Zeno. My point is, this is why I don't like it, because now this poor woman who ain't do nothing to nobody is like a punchline that's 1:25:48 even bigger than that beef. I just hate that shit. I hate it for Tiny, I hate it for 50's Mouth, I hate it for all of them. You're absolutely right, but don't say Benzino. On top of the fact that Tiny is 1:25:56 really unproblematic. We've been getting slayed all week. It's funny, I don't have any beef with Benzino either. Like, why am I saying that? I'm trying to 1:26:04 sell him, selling ads. Shout out to Benzino. I can't take you guys' hour 1 performance to Samsung. Not with our team, 1:26:12 what's his name? You keep bringing them up. We in hour 2. You can say it now. I don't have any more with music. 1:26:21 I'm done. I'm finished with music unless B.Dot has an album that came out that I don't know about. No, I think I'm good. Well, Wizcleafer did drop last week. Yeah, Wiz dropped. Girls 1:26:29 with little horses. Yeah. That's 2 records on there I really enjoy. No, you didn't know that drop freeze He 1:26:46 knows how immature I don't like that part But we don't live together been over 20 years. He 1:26:55 know my brain, yo. No one's funny, I didn't even think to come in here on that type of time. I did. I was waiting for hour 2. 1:27:04 No, no, no. I wasn't thinking that at all. I was thinking, okay, we had such a great music part, the 1:27:12 last part, that let me get my guy Ice involved because I know he would some of that music shit too. I was thinking like teamwork and camaraderie. 1:27:21 That's what I was thinking. I wasn't thinking like pit people against each other until they sat together. You started looking like, hey, I could do this. The wheels started 1:27:29 turning. Yeah, it didn't beat out. I was like, I don't know about GZ's first album. I just can't let that slide. And when he ate your lunch and that Todd 1:27:37 Dollison shit, that's how I remember it. That's when I was like, oh, this might be a problem. Yeah, that was the 1. That's when I looked at you like, this might be a problem. He 1:27:45 ate your lunches like. But then Parks spun the block by his. Parks spun for free. This is so ugly. You 1:27:53 ain't gonna come here just jumping us with your Christianity shit. I'll take this musicality bitch. It's sad that he's been so like, You know what I mean? Cause he smoked 1:28:01 Mona too early on with that. I haven't been smoking. She ain't said a Muslim word since. And I think I seen her go eat something. I ain't been smoking ever. Did I see you eat? 1:28:09 I think he sent her to a meal. Yeah. This nigga is disrespectful. This nigga is terrible. This nigga is disrespectful. There's nothing we can do about it, 1:28:18 guys. Okay, we are done with music. It's offering time. You said a Christianity thing. We'll 1:28:27 work on the joke. Needed joke stuff. We need it. Work the progress. Needed joke stuff. The humor slider is not. You see what you did there? Whip 1:28:35 Khalifa! You see what you did there? You see what you did there? Now everything's all topsy turvy. Now Parks gonna go make 1:28:43 a filet. Like, you know? I'd love to. So listen, I'm really passionate about the 1:28:52 TV show Paradise featuring Sterling K. Brown. Me too. We are. I love that show. I'm caught up. Oh good. All 1:29:00 4. All 4. My man. If you are not caught up, There's a button. Leave. There's a button for you. I'm about to leave. All right, I'm 1:29:08 gonna go with this 1. Wow. If you care about spoiler alerts, I'm gonna give something. Yeah. It's about to be so. I waited 1:29:16 a week. You did. And I have something that I'm extremely passionate about. So as it pertains to Paradise Season 2 Episode 1:29:25 4, they put on an absolute clinic in showing the world why patriarchy is 1:29:33 so important. Oh shit. You're not wrong. You are not wrong. Nah, these bitches out here 1:29:42 done got voices and jobs and savings and checkings accounts and now they out here talking about 1:29:50 equality equality patriarchy is bad insert paradise let me tell you what happened I 1:30:00 didn't think this was the angle, bro. Why? Why? This is a mess. Go ahead. No, it is. When y'all saw the episode before me, 1:30:08 y'all was like, and Itch was like, y'all almost shed a thug tear, I almost cried. Yeah, I was crying. Y'all said that. Then my girl watched it before me 1:30:17 and said, she was crying. Y'all understand what Ice and Isha and them was saying. Y'all almost cried. Really sad episode, be careful. So I cut it 1:30:25 on and grabbed the Kleenex out the medicine cabinet. And I'm sitting there watching. I got that Minute 20, not a tear in sight. After 1:30:33 a minute. No, I said I got to minute 20. I said I got to minute 30. Dry as can be. Dry as can be, not even doing the 1:30:41 sniffles. And then I got to minute 40, and I think I bumped into the part that everybody else was talking about. But I 1:30:49 was celebrating. Boy, I was having a party. The bitch that was supposed to die is dead. Thank the 1:30:57 fucking Lord. This whole was annoying since they introduced her. You're not wrong. She was so sad. So what? 1:31:06 There wasn't nothing sad about it and and that's why so listen what I mean about the patriarchy is this lady was left alone to her own devices 1:31:14 she was by herself. She was straight intentionally she buried her good good home girl that got her the job at the Elvis Presley place Graceland 1:31:22 and she was by herself surviving, doing great. Insert a crew of men trying to, you know, survive and 1:31:30 head to the next destination. They fall in love. They fall in a heavy like. They 1:31:39 fall in heavy enough like for the dude to say, hey, listen, it's dangerous. Oh well yeah. 1:31:50 That too. But he said to her, I'm not leaving you here. Please, please come with me. You're 1:31:58 going to die if you stay here left by yourself. Like let's go. And he said this after sex. Yeah, he meant it. He 1:32:06 said this after sex. After leaving it in too. Yeah. Hey, you would think that a mature conversation would happen at this point, 1:32:15 but not on Paradise. No. No, what she does, you guessed it, The bitch locks herself in the bathroom and doesn't even reply to him. Ghosting someone 1:32:23 in the house is crazy. The house ghosting them. She loves herself in the bathroom as he's trying to save her 1:32:31 life. Finally, he can't wait anymore. He has to go. We got to be out. Insert a black 1:32:39 guy come in all of this time later. Sterling K Brown. He comes in, finds the lady. What does she do? About 9 months later. Yeah. What does she do? Handcuff him. 1:32:49 She handcuffs him. Cool. When he wakes up, she unhandcuffs the dude and They make friends 1:32:57 right She says I need you to help me find my baby daddy. This is a cliff no version by the way It's not an order. This is just my thoughts 1:33:06 work She says I need you to help me find my baby daddy. This is a Cliff Kno version, by the way. It's not an order. This is just what my thoughts were. She says, I need you to help me find my baby daddy. This guy who the free world is obliterated, he's 1:33:14 only here to even look for his wife, says to her, as soon as we find my wife, I'll help you find your baby daddy. 1:33:22 Lost me right there. Yeah. Now I go hold you. Are you fucking kidding me? Cool, I'm thankful you saved my life. You helped me out, cause 1:33:31 she saved him. Cool, cause you know, her medical background, all that shit. Great. My nigga, I'm not making that promise to you, fam. Sorry. Hey, 1:33:39 this is the apocalypse. Yeah. They get on some horses. She starts having contractions. The black guy finds 1:33:48 a safe place for her to be and says, I'm gonna go get help. The white lady says, no, 1:33:56 please don't leave me. I don't trust people. So now the black guy has to work through her trauma. This 1:34:04 black guy at the end of the earth, who can't find his wife, has to now heal this bitch. Emotionally. Yes! 1:34:14 And It's the pit stop. It ain't like I'm in the city where the wife at. I still gotta get over there. I'm watching this shit saying, you've gotta be 1:34:22 kidding me, but oh, it gets worse. He goes out, actually finds- How? Risked his life. He almost 1:34:31 dies in the process. Yeah. Yeah. And then he comes back with the help and not only did he have to heal your trauma, he 1:34:39 said, I'm, we're going to deliver this baby. He's delivering a baby now. Okay. And it's triggering 1:34:47 him from when he had to deliver the baby before. So he got to work through his bullshit too. They delivered a baby and 1:34:55 this heifer has the nerve to die. And her responsibilities end 1:35:03 at, give her this note. Here, give her this note when she's old enough to read 1:35:11 it. You mean we gotta wait 5, 6, actually it ain't even 5, kids can't read a 5 no more. You gotta wait 12 In 1:35:20 America is 12 you gotta wait 12 years for this kid to grow up and read this letter the apocalypse So you might wait a little longer. I'm trying to follow 1:35:28 you guys But what is paradise even about like Paradise is about a bunch of billionaires creating 1:35:37 a bunker for a select group of people to go live in because the end of the world is coming, so they think.
