  Speaker 2: So they came to me and was like what. First
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: of all, shout out to Tim Henshaw and the Free
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Lodgenon Agency. They were like Tim reached out and was like, hey,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: you know dot want you to open the show. I
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: was like, are you fucking serious? Like yeah, like that's

  Speaker 1: selected artists. Here are the artists that we're here. Here's
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: the list that.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: We're thinking of, and we just want you to curate
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: this in a way that makes sense from a DJ's perspective.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: And I'm like, okay, bet.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: And two artists were added last minute, which was ol
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Osama and RJ And those are super last minute. But
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: you know, I can't take credit for that, Like if
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: it was up to me, I would it would be
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: hell of people that was I mean, Vince Staples was going,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Grido was going.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Joe wasn't there, Like it was a bunch of people.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Joe Moses, I felt like, was the one that
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: Joe and Grido in terms of like having records that
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: you'd be like wanting to see the crowd like.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: So my plan was, again if everybody, if you were
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: watching the st or you were there, I was there. Yeah,
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: But if you were watching the stream, you notice like, okay,
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I'm supposed to going at four. And the thing about
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: logistics is we couldn't even fit everybody that we that
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: everybody that they picked, we couldn't even fit within the show.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: So I had to make executive decisions and shout out
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: to Perico and Kaylin, like Pirico's his own artist, but
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: he came out with I had him do keep right
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: with it with Kaylin, and then I had a z
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Chik and Roochie do the song together. It's their biggest
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: songs called Lighted Up, So I had them do a
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: song together and I just kind of just made the call,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: like hey bro, Phoenix Flexen ended up being there.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: He was a rehearsal to.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: I was thinking that they were going to transition from
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: Geeka Leak to a shoreline song no time.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And so you know, shout out to OJZ and
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Phoenix and Rory and the teen for like being understanding.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: But it was like you got to understand, this is
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: not a concert that's contained in the forum.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: This is being streamed.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: It's a show in a production.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: It's a full TV show that requires logistics and timing,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Like we had to time our sets out. Mustard had
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: turn in his list of which songs he was going
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: to play in the mix in between artists before artists,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: And so at four o'clock when I was supposed to start,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: we were running behind because for whatever reason, production was
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: running behind. I couldn't even play the records I was
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: gonna play as a DJ set before I brought Ramble.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: Out right, So you were supposed to hop on and
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: just warm up the crowds as a DJ. I was
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: d kind of like what Mustard did.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Correct, I was gonna DJ, but we were half an
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: hour already into the show. It's like, we gotta go,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: so again. I would like to have everybody on.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: The fucking show, Little Veda, you know, little little Vada.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: I wanted to have lived on it. I wanted to
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: have like you, everyone who knows me knows what I'm wan.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: For sure, I would have everybody on the show. Sure,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Logistically it just doesn't make sense. It doesn't we don't
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: have time for that whatever. So I just may do
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: it what I was given and I didn't need.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: I had to.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: I had to sacrifice my DJ set and it just
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: is what it is, like. I didn't even I wrote
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: a monologue. I wrote a monologue that I was gonna that.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say, then I had after the monologue,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: I had a DJ set, and then I was gonna
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: bring Ramble out. I just came out, said a little
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: quick sun and brought Rumble out.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: And that was Rymble's first performance ever. Yeah, which is
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: I mean shot to Rymble. Yeah, I mean shot the
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Sampizro kicking it off.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. It was a big and you know what, And
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: that was changed in rehearsal as.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Well, the song he did or him opening.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: Him opening, I was gonna have so again we're DJ,
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: so you understand. I was putting the set together. So
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: the idea was, hey, there's three names on the marquee.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: It's you, Mustard Dot and as you're putting the set together,
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: that's going to do a performance. You and Mustard have
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: DJ sets, but live performances of the of the records.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: So I'm putting the set together like I'm DJing in
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: the mix that way, and people are coming out as
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: I'm playing the records.
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: It felt like it was building up to like to me,
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: like obviously like like what and RJ at towards the end,
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: because like n og Z towards the end, it's like
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: it just was very it made sense.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: It wasn't.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: It wasn't even like oh, this person's new or because
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: I was my initial set and I have I ain't
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: think I research this, but.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: My initial idea.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: I wasn't have Wally open mm because he was gonna
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: come out and do a cappella and like how we
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: did the set, I was gonna have Wyley the sense
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: they come out and do all through the flow and
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: it was gonna be a cappella just to set the
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: tone and then the beat comes in and then I
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: was gonna have like a roller coaster like Okay, we're
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: familiar with this kind of unfamiliar and then go back up.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Then then as we were going through it, it didn't feel
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: right in rehearsal and shout out to PG Lane the
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: homies over there, like they just let me make calls
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: and I was like, nah, I'm gonna change the whole
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: set around. Let me let me work on it whatever,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: and they let me. They let me do my thing.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: What was the how like you said that Zoe and
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: RJ got added super late, was that like your call
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: or their call or.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: It was just Don just got the call like hey
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: we need to hey, we need we want to add RJ.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Can you call them? I'm like, yeah, it was seven
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: seven am the day up, oh ship.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: It was just like that.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: It just honestly just went hella fast. And I think
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: for the most part, I think, you know, they did
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: a good job.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: For sure, it was great.
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: And then do you know the background because I remember
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: seeing like a paper of the set list for Mustard
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: and Tyler wasn't on it.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: I didn't know Tyler was gonna be there because I
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: didn't I didn't know Tyler was gonna be there until
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: he was walking. He literally walked past me backstage, like
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: we were in the hallway. I was right outside of
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: a Kendrick's dressing room. So because I was waiting, Top
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: had went in to go talk to him. I was
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: waiting to go in and talk to him, and so
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Tyler walks in the door. We shake hands and he
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: was like and even Sallast was like, that's Tyler the Creator.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I know he was gonna be here, but
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: it was that happening right in that spot where we
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: were standing, Like Lebron walked by and then fucking I
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: don't know whoever I'm like the Weekend Walking by Rick
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Ross was there and I'm like, yo, what are these
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: people doing here?
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: They weren't.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: They're not on the set list, right, you know what
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: I'm saying.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Like, not that I didn't see, I didn't see dot
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: set list, but me and Mustard had to collaborate on
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: our sets so we can overlap right right right. So
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: I didn't know about none of that shit. I didn't
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: even know Tyler was performing. I had no idea.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah that was that was out of the whole night that.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: I'm just backstage and I heard they werena loose, that
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Tyler crowd.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: Pop was it was outside of Kendrick. I was just
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: the Tyler coming out, and I don't think anyone expected
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: any Nah.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that shit. I didn't even know what
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: that was gonna do.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: I gotta ask you this. I was surprised that Lebron
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: didn't make his way on stage, because it feels like
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: the Lebron thing to do. Did he do you know
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: if he tried to get on stage?
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Nah, he didn't. Okay, he was chilling where he was at.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: He was just chilling.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Because there was this little, this.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Little area where we were all hanging out whatever, like
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: side stage, and he was just over there with his
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: I think with his family or something.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Chilling.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we're talking about things being like super intentional and like,
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: you know, there were people who were there who could
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: have came out and did stuff, but they weren't from LA. Yeah,
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: and everybody who came out performed. The only thing that
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: was in LA that happened was E forty narrating the show.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: But you gotta have you gotta have you gotta have that. Yeah,
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: but I mean that was per It's full right, Like
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: nobody who touched that stage wasn't.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: I believe it was intentional. I never even asked about it, right,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: I wasn't. I didn't approach it like, yeah, this is
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: my ship. Yeah, they gave me, Hey, this is what
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: we need you to do. I just executed my job.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: I didn't question anybody. I didn't do anything. It was like,
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: because it's not about me, right, And I think that
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: a lot of people can attest to that. Even the
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: way I was conducting the sessions, it was like, it's
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: not about me, bro, it's not about you. It's about
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Dot and this, and we need to make this look dope. Collectively,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: so I didn't even approach it from like, oh, here's
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: my input on this or this is what I think.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: I just was worried about getting the task done. I didn't.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's crazy too, because like being there, like just
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: from like a fancy I was. I actually watched the show.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: I mean obviously my son was there, but Letty was
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: sitting next to me with Jorge, and uh it was
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: it just felt like it felt like one of them
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: moments they're like, man, I'm gonna remember the rest of
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: my life. I was sitting right here.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Fat me too.
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: Like it when it kicked off, like when Kendrick came
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: out doing Euphoria, which is my favorite song out of
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: all the songs that have dropped throughout this whole thing,
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: I lost my fucking mind. But like you standing there,
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: did you kind of feel the like gravity of like this.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: You did well?
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: By the way, you should have gotten a better position
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: on that photo because you're getting cropped out on all
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: here because you're right on the edge.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not tripping about that, you know how I am.
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: Someone made a T shirt and like you could see
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: half of you on there. I'm not sure, No, I
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: know you're not I know you're not.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: But so before I went on stage, because we had
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: our cues, we worked out our cues, and E forty
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: starts playing, and I'm just standing there on st I'm like, okay,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember some of my monologue, right, so
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: you can get some shit off, So I can get
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: some shit off, yeah, because other than I would have
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: just read the whole thing and you know, did the
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: whole teleprint or whatever it was.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: But I was trying to get my shit there.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: I was trying to remember certain things that I did
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: want to make sure I said, and then at that point,
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: you just going off feeling. So I just went up there,
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: and at first I still behind the turntables, and I
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: was just like, all right, let me just get right
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: to it and not hold people up. Then I'm like, nah,
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: let me, let me go ahead and take the moment
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: and just you know, work the crowd or whatever and
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: let people see me and try to try to absorb
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: some of that energy. But I was, to be honest
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: with you, I wasn't thinking about it. If you think
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: about it, you're gonna you will fucking psych yourself out.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: And start you'll lose your ship for sure.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: So I was even backstage when we were lining I
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: was lining the homies up and telling her I couldn't
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: because people were like.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Yo, this is fucking crazy, this is history.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Like you understand, I can't get in that because if
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I get into that then I'll fuck up miss a
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Cue or miss you know what I mean.

  Speaker 2: and she's been on our team and you know, like
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: I mentor her and try to make sure like everything's straight.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: But then one day we when I left iHeart and
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: she ended up leaving No Jumper.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: We both had an idea. What we were trying to figure.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Out, like what the idea for the show is, Like,
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: what's the idea for the show, what's the premise of it.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: So we were trying to come up with names and
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: ideas and we were shooting back and forth it and
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: we were on the phone with Salace one day and
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: I said, and I forgot if she said it or
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: I said, it was like, yeah, we want to feel
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: something like when you get terminated, it's like something effective immediately,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: And Sialace just goes like, wait, what would you say,
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Like something like, because we're trying to play on the
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: fact of our employment status, when you get them letters right,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: effective immediately you are no longer with the company, blah
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: blah blah.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: And so so I was like, what would you say.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, something like that, and he.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: Was like, that's it, effective media, It's like effective immediately,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: that's it. I'm like yeah, And then we just kind
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: of ran from it. And then I went shout out
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: to j One and you know, Ron Mills and Sway
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Sway really because I called Sway like fourth quarter last
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: year and I was like, Yo, I want to do
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: the syndicated thing, blah blah blah. He put the he
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: put me in touch with the higher ups over there,
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: and they ended up giving me what I wanted, Like
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: we did a non exclusive deal. So I'm going to
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: syndicate not only not only on serious but on terrestrial
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: FM radio. That's got some announcements coming out in the
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: next couple of weeks. So yeah, that really is how
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: it started. But where I'll see it.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Going is bigger than radio or podcasts because obviously you
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: and Chuck started together doing homegrown radio.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: So ye with the new show, where does that leave
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: the homegrown radio?
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: So homegrown homegrown, We're still doing our thing. I look
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: at Homegrown more like the rap radar shit okay, like
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: when beat Out and Elliott was doing ay thing, so
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: that'll be more sophisticated. We actually are, we actually are
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: doing We have one rhapsody dropping soon.
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: Some more like the long form Yeah, effective effective immediately
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: is like the radio show daily talk, topics, news, fun whatever,
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: also celebrity interviews, stuff like that.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: But the homegrown pod is more like long form deeper conversations.
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was gonna say, like, that's the one thing
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: about radio nowadays is just like, I mean, shit, man,
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: where do you feel. I mean, look, you've been out
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: of radio what two years? How do you feel going
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: back into it? Yeah, because obviously, you know, I don't
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: want to get in the background of why things didn't
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: work out at iHeart for you. But it was an
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: interesting situation in which I remember we went.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: To a concert that was sponsored by Amazon Music.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Once it's Kendrick Lamar, it was, it was Kendrick Lamar.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: It was yeah, and there was Amazon Music.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, an iHeart sweet. Yeah, We're like, oh, that's interesting.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: But with that being said, getting back into it, because
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: you know, at the end of the day, like radio
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: is not what it used to be. But it's also
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: if you do it, if you do it right, if
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: you know what you're doing, if you you know, aren't
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: just mailing it in, Like a lot of these personalities
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: are across the country, there is a place for it
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: to still matter.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: It does matter, Yeah, No, for sure.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: I think it's another place where I mean, I think
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: all free medium is going to be around forever. TV radio,
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: same shit free It's all going to exist because it's
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: a free medium and people don't have to pay for
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: to consume it. But I think what radio is going
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: is bigger shows, less personalities. I don't necessarily see like
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: a lot of smaller shows existing anymore.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: I don't think that people.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: Like people still care about having a compersonal connection to
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: the station and the radio.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: They don't care about live and local. They just want
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: they just want good content.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and they want to hear their Honestly, they want
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: to hear their favorite song in the morning.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: That's all they care about.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: Like, because even when you talk about like hip hop
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: in the sense that people like, oh we want that
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: pewre shit, people don't give a fuck.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: They want jammin as songs.
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah. They just want to hear what they want to hear.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: That's it. It is what it is like. That's why
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: there's research and call out and all that shit. Like
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: you know, And I think two people got to understand that,
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: like the what we call p ones in radio, which
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: are like the die hard show up to the remote.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: Back in the day you'd have a bumper sticker on
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: your car. Those people who are like p ones, they
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: are not like at the end of the day. Those
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: are for the most part, you want to have, not
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: to get into the fucking geekiness radio talk, but you
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: want a p one to try to get a meter. Right.
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: If you're a radio station and a pe one of
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: yours gets a meter, which is how they get ratings
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: they're calculating them through PPM, then you're lit because they're
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: gonna listen all fucking day. But usually those people who
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: carry the meters, who determine the ratings, or who are
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: p ones, they're not. They don't care about the double
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: XL Freshman cover that just drops. No, they don't care.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: About like they don't care that, they don't care that
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Vince Staples wasn't on stage at the pop up.
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: Nah, They're just like excited for the Kendrick moment and
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: and Drake and and and and That's what's It's almost
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: like this Kendrick and Drake thing pushed about this is
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: about as good as it's gonna get in terms of
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: real hip hop and bars and like, you know, the
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: art form being like so commercially like working, like you
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. Like these records are like Euphouria
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: is a six minute record getting played in power rotation
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: and it's not really a hook on it.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: There's not a hook anyway.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Repeat, But I hate the way that you yeah, I
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: mean that's I mean, but still but it's like like
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: that's where we.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: All tried, yeah, saying like that's there, you know, there's
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: a little something for you.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: But it's it's just you know, I think people got
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: to understand that, Like when we do radio, it's different
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: than when we do the YouTube stuff or when you
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: do homegrown radio or when you do your shit, because
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: it's like, bro, the radio shit is it's it's it's
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: I don't want to use microL wave, but it kind
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: of is like it's surface level listening.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just background that people put it on at work.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: And the people who are like die hard into the
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: station for the most part, they're usually like mid thirties,
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: like early forties, and they love their station that they
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: grew up listening to and they don't understand how to
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: get they don't want to get Spotify because you know
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: what I mean. Like, so I think it's just a
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: it's a different thing. Like when we do our radio show,
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: me and James, it's like it's way different. The ship
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: we run through the filter, like should we talk about this? Like,
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: I don't know if they don't care about the you know,
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: a thirty four year old females working two jobs and
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: got four kids gives a fuck.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: About it, cares about that stuff. So it's hard. I mean,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: it's not hard as long as you know what you're doing.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: Pick good content, pick good spots. You made good radio on.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: What do you think about the Freshman cover that just dropped?
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: I don't care.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: It said not like us with absolutely zero LA artists.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: That's why I don't care.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the biggest commercial because I've tried to
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: see it through the I'm running a New York magazine
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: because that's what I look at Double ex cell As,
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: it's Vanessa and them are all in New York. Right
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: to me, the biggest snub would have been three with
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: old Baby in LA.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: See the thing is, and I don't care necessarily about
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: the frist. I stop caring about a lot of that shit. Right,
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: here's a barometer on what DJ head cares about. If
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: you see DJ Head involved in it, then he cares.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: We got snubbed in Grammys over and over again. I
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: want to join the Grammy Board. My people in the community.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: I want to join the Boys and Girls Club. I
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: joined radio station because I care about radio, like our YouTube,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: podcast and content. I care about those things. If you
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: don't see me involved in it, I really don't give
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: a fuck. And the thing is the double XL Freshman
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: cover is just an example of institutions not being cold
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: truly tapped in, which that's not far that's not a
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: far fetched idea. Most of these platforms and companies are
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: not tapped in. They're not, I want to say, tapped in.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: They're not culturally aware of certain things and moments that
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: actually matter.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: To the culture.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: If it's supposed to gauge cultural impact and so like
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: when you have a three one oh baby who probably
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: should have who did probably belong on the cover for sure,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: right then you take something like not like us and
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: you put that and you make that the subheading for it.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: Not like us meant not like us in LA.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Or to me, there's people in New York who just like, oh,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: let's use this, Yeah, this is a hot this is cool.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because they don't understand the cultural relevance or impact
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: of what this thing is. And that has been my
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: problem throughout the last two three months that everything's been
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: going down, is you have to be culturally aware so
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: you don't culturally play yourself. And that's that was my
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: thing with the whole battle back and forth, for even
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: with the Doubles, like a lot of things have cultural
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: nuance that people don't understand, and if you don't understand that, you.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Should just be like, hey, I don't get this, I
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: don't get it. Hey, you know what I mean? I
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: remember you during was it twenty twenty twenty twenty when
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: everything was going down with George Floyd? You would call me,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: you would call Sautas, Hey, bro, I want to do
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: something like how can I help? Like what I got to?
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: What can I do?
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Those things matter because now it's like, Okay, if I
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: don't know, let me tap a motherfucker in who knows?
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: How can I be of service? How can I help this?
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: This cover shows to me same thing everything else been
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: showing me. Whether it's or shows, whether it's whatever, it's
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: just you don't have people in the room who are
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: either one confident boisterous enough, or who don't even have
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: the platform to speak up and say, hey, we probably
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: shouldn't do that, you know, I mean, you know what
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: we shouldn't do.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: We shouldn't be.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: A half white, half black person and make reference to
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: somebody who's culturally black and culturally potent, rich in culture, and.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: May say, hey, you're rapping like slaves. Who's in the
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: room for that? Yeah, So I look at all those things.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: It's the same thing. It's not it's not to slight
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: anybody or to diss anybody. It's just no one's in
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: the room and has the authority or the player or
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: the nuts to snu because sometimes people don't want input
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: and so it doesn't then have to be nuts. It
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: could be you don't empower this person enough to challenge
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: you on this, right.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's funny. That's one of the things I tweeted.
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: I was like, imagine getting discs for having your music
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: having substance.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: Like what what are we doing? Like, No, that's real.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: I just thought, you know, it's funny because I posted
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: the cover and I didn't even read it, not like
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: us part I just put I didn't even see that.
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: So no, I just posted it because you know, I
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: got you know, OT's my boy and I'm happy for him. Man,
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: big ext the plug and skill of baby like Dude
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: there's the guys on there that really deserve to be
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: on there, But like I was just like, there's nobody
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: from LA, like the two names that you know. It
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: was three one oh and zero and it was like,
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: I know for a fact, I looked up on Spotify
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: just to see monthly listeners and I was like I always
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: got more monthly listeners and like half this cover, Like.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: Hey bro, my thing is again I always say this,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: and actually, you know, I'm not even gonna say that.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm not gonna rehash that point. I'll say this,
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: what we heard is niggas don't like the West Coast,
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: and then that's why with it, I'll push the line
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: with it.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: That's yeah.
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: I feel like, you know what, dude, It's crazy because
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: I always me and you would always have these conversations
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: about like the bias that's in the industry.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Which is why I'm over overtently biased, right.
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: But it's funny because I used to always just be like,
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: I don't know, man, like you might be wrong. But
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: when I see like the way these guys just hate
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: what's happening right now for no good reason other than
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: the kids from LA, it feels like at least like
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: the mall thing is super strange to me. Me like, just
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: like it's just You're like, it's true. Motherfuckers really just
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: don't fuck with La.
• 24:08

• 24:16
  Speaker 1: fuck with Nevada nothing. It's they don't fuck with Albuquerque.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: I know a fire ass artist from Albuquerque, don't I
• 24:22

• 24:24
  Speaker 2: but he's fired from Albuquerque.

  Speaker 4: New Mexico's crazy.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: The thing is, Bro, they just don't fuck with us,
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: and that's okay, but at least say I don't fuck
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: with you. That's why I respect people who are overtly racist,
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: right because it's like.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: Hey, at least I know where I stand with you.
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: That's it.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Don't be secretly racist.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Don't be secretly racist, because that's Joe check.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: That's where systematic racism kicks it.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: That's where That's why I was That's why I was
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: challenging during the during the back and forth, I'm like, bro,
• 24:51

  Speaker 4: and then The Family Matters comes out, and I remember
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: I listened to it and I think I called you
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: before meet the Grahams came out, and I was like, Oh.

• 26:01
  Speaker 4: really just throwing shit at the wall and hoping it sticks.
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: And then like twenty minutes later, no, fifteen minutes, I'm
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: refreshing my shit. What the fuck? When I first heard
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: Meat the Grams Dog, I was screaming. I was like,
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: I couldn't even believe it.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: It was like.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: And like it.
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: It could have ended right there with no Not Like Us,
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: and it would have just been like you suck the
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: life out of this dude, man. But then was it Saturday.
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: The next day Not Like Us comes out and it's
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: a hit record, and I'm just like, I just broke
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: because you know, I've been sending tweets because you know,
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: I'm very I've been extremely.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: Critical with Drake for years.
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: I'm a big push of Tea guy, huge Kendrick guy,
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: and so I remember I've been I've been I've been
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: tweeting like this, ain't this, ain't this, ain't what like

  Speaker 4: After like that came out, This ain't this, ain't this,

• 27:17
  Speaker 4: I told y'all. And by the way, man, all you
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: fucking Drake beehive, weirdo ass bodass accounts. I did not
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: know that there were grown men whose whole entire life
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: revolved around leaving comments on Twitter. You fucking in sell fucks,
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: stop playing Fortnite and beating your dick to fucking the
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: motto the model is a fire record, great record. Shout
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: out to might be the most culturally tapped in song
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: he's ever done.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: That's not true, shout out to the bay culturally tapped in.
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: And he went to the bay and mac Dre's mom
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: in the video.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, oh, you mean, like from all okaygo what you're saying.
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: Maybe I don't know.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: Anyway, but I didn't know.
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: But but I'm sure you've been dealing with these same comments.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: I don't even know.
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: It's crazy.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: Oh no, I've been taking screenshots. I make a scrap
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: book out of all of my slamers.
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: Oh it's so crazy.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: I'm be getting slander for what two months too, And.
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: I had everybody say I'm glazing.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I just learned that one. Throughout the battle glazing.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: I pinned.
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: I always pinned the most disrespectful ones. You pin them
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: for a retweet.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just learned glazing. Like in the last two months.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: That was a good one. I didn't know what the
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: fuck they were saying.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: Initially, apparently I'm Jay Glazer Maine.
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm DJ Gibbshead, who glazes.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Anyway. The whole time, I'm just you know, ship.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: The thing is, you know, it's funny about when you
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: were dry. I think I remember when you called me.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: But beyond that, family matters drops. The video is out.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: I'm looking at it, like, okay, he shouted, he spends
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: some money.
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: Ain't even the right type of van, fuck it.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: Whatever his symbolism cool whatever, you know, I don't expect
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: him to understand, you know what I mean.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: Maybe you couldn't get the van in time. Who knows. Maybe.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, yo, I'm watching it. I'm like, okay,
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: he went to the restaurant. That's such a Drake thing
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: to do.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: Then I'm looking at it and he sends the stuff
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: about the Hoummies.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh yeah, he got nothing, nothing like that's crazy.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: The most memorable line that Drake said throughout this whole
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: thing was about metro booming, shut your ass up and
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: make some.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: Drums, And I'm just like wow. Then I thought it
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: was a miss because.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Well, again, you wouldn't know this if you're not up,
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: if you're not culturally of that. But when someone directly
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: is pressing your line, you dressed that person, not everybody
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: who has said event. So I think you you segregated
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: your attention span and now you've left yourself vulnerable.
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: It was two records in a row that he addressed
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: everybody and not just Kennon, and again not having people
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: in the room who like, hey, you know what, that's
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: not no, no, no, that's not the p It's funny because
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: when he put out the last record that was like
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: the White Flag, I called you again right away and
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: you were like, it's over, it's over. I talked to Kendrick,
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: it's over. But it's funny because I thought, well, at
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: least he addressed him directly for a whole song, because
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: he didn't do that prior to that, because it's like,
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: what again, It's like, we know he's short, we know
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: like he's a short guy, and he cares about his people,
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: and uh, he wears a certain size.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Shoe, and well, you know what's funny is when the initial.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: Again, I want to I want to shout out to
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: Doc and Dave and and too because you know, it
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: was a lot of shit going on, and you know,
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: they empowered me. But at the same time it was
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: still like I wasn't speaking for them.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: I wasn't.
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: I wasn't fully aware of everything that was going on
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: until like later on. But when the push Ups this
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: shit came out. Somebody told me that.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: He called the record push Ups because of what I said,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: because it wouldn't have a title. I remember, it was
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: just a record.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: It it was just a song that Academics was playing
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: the record or whatever, and he didn't put it out.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: It was just Academics was the only one in the world.
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: With the record, and he the first version was like
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: it was like a leak or whatever.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, whatever, cool.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: So I said what I said, like, you know about
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: you posting pictures whatever, and then your push Ups record.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: And then somebody was like yo, you know, like oh,
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: the next day I found out when when it would
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: actually get put up.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Somebody called me.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: No need to say all of that, but someone called
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: me and said, yeah, you must have really said I
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: pushed his button because he's putting the record out.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: I said, when he said thirty minutes, said say.
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: Look because you said it's not on DSPs. It wasn't.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: It claimed it, it wasn't on it. SoundCloud, it wasn't
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: anywhere was the only person with the record. So I
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: went on Twitter and I was like, Yo, the boy's
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: putting the record out.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: It'd be up in thirty minutes.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: It was up thirty minutes later, push ups, and so
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: I think that's when people were like, oh shit, you know,
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: let me see like he knows what he's talking about.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: And then you called the Camia Cabello.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Thing shot that records, that record's coming out, but you
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: called that The thing is bro And this is I'm
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: gonna say this, because.
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: What did you say about it? You pretty much said,
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: don't hold up that young lady's record.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Again.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: I had information about him holding up a record for
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Camilla Cabello, and I was like, yo, but the thing
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: is it wasn't really I wasn't using Camilla as a
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: pawn for Cloud or for anything like that. It was
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: more like, bro, just because I'm running a fade with you,
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: don't hold this girl career up.
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: She needs this record. Let her get a record off.
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: To be fair, though, if you're Drake and you just
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: found Kendrick for doing songs with Maroon five and Taylor Swift.
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: And in the middle of that conflict, you drop a
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: Camia Cabello feature.
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: Jesus Christ, what do we talk?
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: Okay?
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: So in that same breath, by the way, he also
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: danced to the Tailor Show. So in that same breath,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: why are you doing shit you're not proud of?
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: You're right? Why even do it? Yeah? I don't.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna do whatever I do. If I fuck
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: up or whatever, I'm gonna own it.
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Hey, I fucked up. You
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Whatever, just cool.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying that the record is fuck up, but
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying, don't punish somebody else for some shit
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: you got going on, like you got sometimes you gotta
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: follo on your sword, right, Just let her put the
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: record out, bro, like you shoot the video, go do.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: Let her do her outside of this shit. But I mean,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: it wasn't just her.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: The whole industry kind of shut down for like two weeks,
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: like nobody's dropping nothing. Everybody get the fuck out the way.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: You know, you know what's gonna happen. And then you know,
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Dot took his time and cooked his food.
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah. It's interesting too because the double standard that was
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: being held between to like that verse being released and
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: how long it took Drake to put anything out compared
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: to when push ups dropped and then the Euphoria release gap.
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: It was like people were all of a sudden extremely
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: forgetful that it took Drake like a month to reply
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: to the like.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: That, but then fuck the month. He's been getting poked forever.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: They've been doing that ship forever.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, for years.
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: All the stuff, Yeah it is.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that shit don't matter, bro. The thing is salute
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: to him. Like I said, I've been saying this for
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: the whole what two and a half months, three months?
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: Just make your songs, right, Make your songs, bro, We're
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: gonna play them. You're gonna play them. I'm gonna play them.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: We're gonna play the records he makes hits. Make your bobs,
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: But don't play the culture game. You're gonna lose if
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: you play the culture game. That's like, and one thing
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: I will say this about I can say this about you. Actually,
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: you're probably the only one that I know that out
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: of the people that I'm thinking of in my head
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: from people that like that are white, who who exists
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: in the space. You can't play the culture game with
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: somebody like me. You're gonna lose, you know what I mean,
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: Because you don't you're not culturally potent in that way.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: And so all I've been saying to him is, bro,
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: make your do your ship, do you do your records,
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: cav do your podcast, but don't play the culture game
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: because you're gonna get You're gonna get eviscerated. And it's
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: not even gonna be it's not even gonna be fair.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: It's not even a fair fight. And then that's also
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: why it was like all right, all right, he's got enough,
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like fuck it, you know,
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: we got the number one record in the world, Like.
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: I thought it was interesting. Like also the like bringing
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: like saying Hyg's name on a record. It's like YG
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: was at the pop out on stage and what looks
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: to be in the music video.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: I don't have a comment on that, but.
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: Have you heard that there's this this West Coast remix coming?
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know nothing about nothing.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: Nice do you feel like?
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: Let me ask you this head, because obviously you've been
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: pushing the West Coast line so hard for so many years, right,
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: how does the West not how do they make sure
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: to properly take advantage of this current moment, because to me,
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: it feels like the chance to take it back to
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: ninety three, ninety four and like take the crown. Atlanta's
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: had it for so long.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: Hit records shit, at the end of the day, the
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: day go in shout out the glowrilla. We we just
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: need records, and we have to go in with a
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: consorted effort to create undeniable records.
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: I think everybody goes in.
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: It's not everybody, but a lot of people, not even
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: just in LA but in hip hop.
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: A lot of people go in to booth and just.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: Fuck around, punch in, punch out.
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: Hey.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: I like that, and it's like, bro, no, that's not
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: how the magic is made. Sometimes you can get away
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: with that, but more more times than not, it's a
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: collaborative effort. There's thought behind it, there's deep meaning. There's
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: a lot of intention that goes into these hit records.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: And what good is the spotlight if you if you
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: don't have nothing for it? And so I think right now,
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: the initiative for everybody that I've been pushing, I've been
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: on the phone for two weeks non stop all day.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: Put records out, hit records, hit records, work together, bring
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: somebody in the studio. Who's gonna who's gonna contest.
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: You, work out, maybe work outside of your comfort circle.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: Bro. All of that shit matters.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: And it's not just for La It's for the Bay,
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: it's for Sacramento.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: It's fun, it's for San Diego, everybody.
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: For sure?
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: I think, I think also to what I noticed, and
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of camaraderie. I just connected two of
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: the homies today who hadn't worked together, Like, Hey, hook
• 37:46

  Speaker 4: like now they gotta deliver. And then it's like the
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: cream rises to the top, right, and then Kaylen can deliver,
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: and then Zoe can deliver.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: And I just talked to Kaitlyn today and it was
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: the same type of thing. And it's just like I
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: got I've been talking the problem Jason Martin.
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: Blast you know, Black Blast Ship's coming about about.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: You know, getting in with these younger dudes and helping
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: them with their records.

  Speaker 2: I need these dudes to listen to him.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: It's just what it is.
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, It's like like I think that at the end
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: of the day, like understanding the moment too is important,
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: Like you got to understand so that way, you know,
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: like I can't just go to the studio and just
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: do what I've been.
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: Doing, No, and you can't.

  Speaker 1: I don't know, Like I just I don't think she

• 49:03
  Speaker 3: She don't need to do nothing.
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: She's her own thing for sure.
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: What I would like is for Djah to participate on
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: a level that it's beneficial to the city, you know
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: what I mean, Like we always talk about like Dot
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: participated and you see the ramifications of that, you know,
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: She's from the valley.
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: The Valley. Yeah. Well it's funny too because like you
• 49:23
  Speaker 4: and I had always kind of like I wouldn't say
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: butt heads, but we're on different sides of the Tyler
• 49:28
  Speaker 4: the Creator fandom. Yeah, I've always I mean, I apologize
• 49:32
  Speaker 4: to you, no I saw you. I saw you, But
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: like you know, I've been wucking with him since you know,
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: the Odd Future Wolfgang.
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: But you're very when.
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: You start talking about crazy shit and the devil and
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: all the wild shit that Tyler used to talk about
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: when he was an Odd Future Wolfgang kill him all
• 49:47
  Speaker 4: and all that shit. It just wasn't for you log off, Yeah,
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: for sure. And but you know, there'd always kind of
• 49:54
  Speaker 4: been like you know these like separate LA's on the
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: hip hop side where you would like look at like.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: I think it's like four different LA's.
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: There's like the guys like the Internet and Tyler and
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: and then there'd be the RJ's and and the more
• 50:09
  Speaker 4: you know, street centric sides where politics are very prevalent
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: in the imagery and the music. Then they would you say,
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: like the Fairfax kind of wave, which was odd future
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: casey Veggie's.
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: Dom Dom well Down's from Lamart Park.
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: But same, So what are the other two then? So
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: I would look at it, it's like you got you
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: got like the Lamart Park. Actually I would say it's three.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: I would say it's the street guys. You got the
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: hipster crowd, which is that like.
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: Tyler all that kind of shit, and then you have.
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: The other and the other would be like a Doja
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: cat right, she don't really fit into would you.
• 50:49
  Speaker 3: Consider look as the other?
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: Nah that is from Compton for real?
• 50:54
  Speaker 4: No, No, I know, but I'm saying like in terms
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: of like that because I always like, when I think.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: You're looking at it as a sound thing, trick in
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: the imagery thing, don't look at.
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: It like that.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: That's the that's the trick. That's how he got him right.
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: You have to look at it like Dot has always
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: made references in his music that ties him to the
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: community he comes from, for sure. Same thing Roddy Roddy
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: O Roddy sounds like he's from the South. Roddy wear Dicky.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: Suit on on the Grammy Awards and says cousin his music, right,
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: you know, I mean they're in twenty twenty. Right culture.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: Culture is prevalent in both of those people, regardless of
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: what the sec what it is that you're hearing.
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: I look at it.
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: Differently because doja you can look at her shit and
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: not know where the fuck she's from. Fact she's She's
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: culturally ambiguous, which works for her. She's from here. We
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: claim her right one hundred percent. Tyler's from here, we
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: claim him one hundred percent. But you can look at
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: their art and not know where they're from. That's true,
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: you get what I'm saying. So, and even Tyler it
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: has culture in his music for sure, the way he
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: dances and shit.
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: Tyler's an a nigga.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I look at it differently just because the
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: way Doja is. She became a pop star immediately, and
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: then she had to remind you niggas that she could.
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: Rap, right, you know what I mean.
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: This last album she had to tell.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Y'all got Doljah fucked up for sure, you know what
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, like dog.
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: You can rap.
• 52:16
  Speaker 3: I think she's honestly, yeah.
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: Those just fucking over a lot of girls, and from
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: a rat perspective, definitely keep it a lot of men too.
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: I was about to say, to keep it a buck.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: She those is kind of fucking over a lot of
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: you do for sure.
• 52:31
  Speaker 4: I was gonna ask you Roddy obviously you've you know,
• 52:35
  Speaker 4: Roddy's somebody who's one of my favorite artists. You know,
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: please excuse me for being anti social. I remember he
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: gave us that title where We're at We're at a
• 52:44
  Speaker 4: uh and uh. You know, I feel like he's an
• 52:49
  Speaker 4: introvert and I feel like the pandemic. I'm not sure
• 52:53
  Speaker 4: the pandemic affected somebody more than maybe the trajectory that
• 52:58
  Speaker 4: Roddy was on in terms of him not necessarily being
• 53:01
  Speaker 4: able to get in that full festival season when the
• 53:05
  Speaker 4: Box was the number one song in the world, and
• 53:08
  Speaker 4: you know, think about it. December twenty nineteen is when
• 53:11
  Speaker 4: the album drops. Yeah, and in March twenty twenty is
• 53:14
  Speaker 4: when we shut down.
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: Everything done.
• 53:16
  Speaker 4: And you know, I know there was multiple versions of
• 53:19
  Speaker 4: his second album, and you know, I know that you've
• 53:24
  Speaker 4: been really close with Roddy and helping him in the
• 53:27
  Speaker 4: studio and stuff, and just like, you know, it was
• 53:30
  Speaker 4: just it feels good to see. I feel like Roddy's
• 53:32
  Speaker 4: backing is like in is bag for real, like like confidence.
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: Wise, confidence wise, yes, but Roddy had to you got
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: to think. It's like I don't want to equate him
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: like this. They're going to probably not like this on
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: the internet. But it's kind of like when I talk
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: to my big homies about Mike Tyson and you take
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: a nineteen twenty year old and you give him ten
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: million or twenty million dollars or whatever it is, it's
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: like here, it's like, yo, I'm nineteen, right, he won.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: Roddy was rich when he was. Roddy was really.
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: Rich at twenty one years old, crazy like in real
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: life rich, not like small rich rich, big rich. Yeah,
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: at twenty one, So it's like, what were you doing
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: at twenty one years old?
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: So I always think, I always people I want people
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: to just visualize that, right, And I don't want to
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: give like a number. But let's say let's say you're
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: twenty one years old, somebody gives you twenty million dollars.
• 54:28
  Speaker 3: What are you gonna do?
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: What do you do? Do you do?
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: You be like, you know what, I need to get
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: focused and make my next album, right, I need to
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: get in here and take this shit. You're like, yo,
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: then you got to deal with family. You gotta do
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: with the homies, you gotta do with everything coming at
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: your mile a minute. So when I've had these conversations
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: with him, he just like I just talked to him.
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: Actually, he called me yesterday.
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: We talked about half an hour yesterday and he was
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: just saying, like how much he appreciates our conversations.
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: And he's grown as a man.
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: You know, at this point, he's a father, right, he's
• 54:57
  Speaker 2: you know, you had your kid young, you know what
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, eighteen, So he's a dad now and he's
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: like learning how to be a man, and he's dealing
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: with the homies. And he's dealing with politics on a
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: different level where he got all of these white people
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: handling his business affairs. He got businesses in Miami, he
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: got businesses over here. He has businesses that are making
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: a lot of money every year, right that are outside
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: of music.
• 55:17
  Speaker 4: People you don't even like, we don't even know about it.
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: You don't even know about these businesses.
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: And so I think his mentality is just different at
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: this point, which translates into the music. And that's what
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: people are getting right now. Like I told him a
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: couple of years ago, like you gotta let these people in.
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: You gotta let people in. It's only so long you
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: could do the jewelry and the cars and shit like that.
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: People want to know who the fuck you are. People
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: want to know what you stand on where you stand,
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like that's that's been a
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: big criticism with with Drake for all these years. We
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: don't know where he stands on anything. You don't know
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: how he feels about Black lives matter. You don't know
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: how he feels. You don't know what shit, You don't know.
• 55:51
  Speaker 4: How That's what I've been saying for years. You don't
• 55:53
  Speaker 4: know how he feels about Trump. He doesn't have an
• 55:54
  Speaker 4: opinion on shit, on nothing except for these bitches.
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: And so my point is exactly. And so my point
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: is I was telling Roddy like, you gotta let us in.
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: I know, but they don't know. And so I think
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: he did that with Survivor's remorse, like he's phenomenal. Like
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, cause he didn't even let me see
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: the video until like we were on the phone at
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: four in the morning before it drops, and he sent
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: me the video maybe like I don't know, four hours
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: before it came out of it came about like six
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: am or whatever, I mean something like that, and he
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: sent me the link. We were on the phone because
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: he was blowing my phone and it was like it
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: was early as fuck, like four.
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: In the morning and some shit. I'm like, bro, what's up.
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: Everything good? I thought something happened. He's like, yeah, man,
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: I'm just you know, you know, like we were having
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: a private conversation, but he sent me the video. I'm like,
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: I called him right back. This is what the fuck
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: I've been talking about. When you listen to the song,
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: it's cool, it's a good song. When you watch the video,
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: you're like, oh shit, yeah, you know what I mean.
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: It's a different impact, and to me that was important
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: for him specifically. We know where Kendricks from, we know
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: where he's staying up, we know you could pretty much
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: extrapulate what he's on.
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: Well, I think too, like feed the Streets early Roddy,
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: it was very like.
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: This is where he's from, this where Yeah, you guys,
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: you don't know how he feels, right, We don't know
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: what he thinks, right. You know where he's from, and
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: the imagery is there. You can see his homies in
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: the project, but you don't know what's on his mind, right.
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: And I always try to explain the artists. You have
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: to figure out a way to translate that to people
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: who love your music, even in order to garner new fans,
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: because even when we do interviews, we don't talk about
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: just the album. I want to talk to you about fatherhood.
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about like when we
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: had an offset and or whoever come in.
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: Let's talk to you.
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: About being a dad, because if I don't like your
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: fucking album, I might connect to you as being a dad.
• 57:35
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 57:36
  Speaker 3: It might not be about the music.
• 57:37
  Speaker 4: It might be about a lot of people nowadays, like
• 57:40
  Speaker 4: they become fans of artists before they hear the music.
• 57:42
  Speaker 4: Like I have so many people, y'all. I love Mexicano
• 57:44
  Speaker 4: Tea man. I saw him on your podcast, I saw
• 57:46
  Speaker 4: him on Joe Rogan, and I saw him on Homegrown,
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: and then they go to the music, and then they
• 57:51
  Speaker 4: go to the music.
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: And so I think with Roddy, that's where he's at now.
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: He's he's man enough, and he's and he's being transparent
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: enough to allow the public into his life. And that's
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: why you see like him having his kid and or
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: you see and.
• 58:04
  Speaker 4: He's like one of the best songmakers of the last
• 58:06
  Speaker 4: I don't even know, Like I know people didn't like
• 58:08
  Speaker 4: a second second album, but there's a lot to love
• 58:11
  Speaker 4: on that album.
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: And you know what, I just feel.
• 58:12
  Speaker 2: I just realized I don't remember who I was songing to.
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: But like Roddy makes Roddy makes jamming ballads.
• 58:22
  Speaker 4: That's fair. And I was like, damn, late at night,
• 58:25
  Speaker 4: I never thought about it like that.
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: But he makes jam and ass ballads and he makes
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: ballots that are palatable in this in this climate, and
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: I was like, damn, I never.
• 58:32
  Speaker 3: Thought it real.
• 58:35
  Speaker 4: For people who don't know it was said that doctor
• 58:39
  Speaker 4: Dre was not too keen of you and your criticism
• 58:41
  Speaker 4: of the Compton album. Hm, did you get to see
• 58:45
  Speaker 4: Dre I.
• 58:45
  Speaker 3: Stayed out his way, he stayed out of his way?
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah I didn't. I didn't.
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: That wasn't the time of the place. I want to
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: have a I would love to have a conversation with you.
• 58:52
  Speaker 4: How important do you think doctor Dre and Snoop are
• 58:55
  Speaker 4: to this moment?
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: It's intermountable. Yeah, you don't get none of it Without
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: Snoop and Dre, you don't get I'm back, let me
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: back up.
• 59:02
  Speaker 4: You got a new dog Pen album that just came out,
• 59:04
  Speaker 4: Death rows.
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: Man Shot Out to the Death the dog Pound album. Bro.
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: I was so relieved to hear that because it wasn't
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: it was people expected. But it starts slowly turning into
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: not with people like that DJ Premiere record was crazy. Sure,
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: like people think like corrupt is one of the Corrupt
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: is like a really great MC godlevel MC bro for sure,
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: And people got corrupt fucked up. They got dass fucked
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: up too, but corrupt it's different. So I was I'd
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: love to see that. But let me back up. Let's
• 59:35
  Speaker 2: take Snoop out of it. You don't get none of
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: this ship without Doctor Dre. For sure, nothing nothing moves
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: without doctor Dre. You don't get n w A, you
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: don't get easy, you don't get nothing.
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: What uh death Road? Nothing. And so the biggest hip
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: hop tree ever, let's.
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: Take, let's take, let's go ahead and remove Snoop and
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: it's it's all Rose Leader Dre.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, doctor Dre's a fucking genius.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 4: I just hope that this moment also motivates them to
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 4: to Obviously, Snoop is active, you know.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: Snoop It I love Snoop because Snoop participates in the Coach.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, him and Quicker on tour right now in Canada,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 4: I think. But in terms of like you know, Dre,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 4: it's like, shit, man, you were in the Houdini video.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 4: You just puffed up on stage with Kendrick.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: By the way, I like that Eminem song.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 4: Yes you and a lot of fucking dudes who look
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 4: like me. They're fucking post forty.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 3: That song sucks.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: I like it. I mean, you know what, No, no,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 4: let me let's put out worse songs.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: I like the video.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: I like the Yo. So the problem that I had with.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: Let me let me let me back up. I love
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: the video.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 4: The problem I had with the song is I heard
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 4: it on its own about the video.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: And so when you when you just listen to it,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 3: and then when I saw.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 4: The video, it's like, oh, I get it. It was like,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 4: oh this this old version of him came through the portal.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 4: I get it. And and honestly, it is a catchy
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 4: ass hook. It is a catchy hook, and he's he's
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 4: wrapping his ass off on the song it is. I
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 4: hope that this, you know, back in the day, Eminem
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 4: used to set up every album with my name is
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 4: or just Lose It or one of these goofy singles,
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 4: And I hope that this means we're gonna get an
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 4: amazing body of work from Eminem, because I actually like
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 4: the life. Do you remember when you and I were
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 4: in the studio and the Eminem fucking trackless dropped and
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 4: I don't fucking I just wanted to break everything because
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 4: I was just so to bro. Eminem had a decade
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 4: of just putting out less than favorable music in my
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 4: humble opinion, but music to be murdered by was great.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: I wasn't. I wouldn't. I haven't been a fan of
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: none of the Eminem stuff.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 4: The last album was good. Music to be Murdered By
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 4: was actually like fucking great.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 2: No, No, Eminem was an elite MC for sure. I
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: wasn't a fan of the music, but like.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 4: That Revival album is one of the worst album since
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 4: I released.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: I would love to get a steap peek of this
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: new album.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 4: Hear me too, man, hopefully, you know, I just want
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 4: everybody to be inspired to drop, like okay cool, you know,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 4: like shots to muggs.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 3: Mugs been working like low.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 4: Key with like TF and Jay Worthy and and you know, shit,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 4: let's do a fucking cybercill album. Let's fucking you know.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 4: We just got the DJ Quick and Jason Martin album.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 4: There's there's people motherfuckers are working. Yeah. I like.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: I like the fact that I like that.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: It's also embrasive too, because there was a whole time
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 2: period where hip hop is as an age as an
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 2: age cap and you have to get out the way.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: But now it's like nah, bro, and.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 4: Even like the you know, on the Mexican side, like
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 4: I feel like Mexican hip hop in LA has never
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 4: been stronger. Like it's great right now. You know, we
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: talked about coyote lefties, you know, for for how do
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 4: you feel about lefty lefties? Makes no music and.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: Now it's a market for everything. I think I want
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: to see, Like, hey, so I want to see pace.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: I want to see the ogs really really embrace the
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 2: new producers. I think that's going to make a world
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: of difference, sure, because that's one thing that I do
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: give to the East Coast and even the South. I
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 2: guess they do the same thing.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: You'll you you will hear.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 4: You know, like.
• 1:03:09

• 1:04:42
  Speaker 4: Let me ask you this hed, how dope was it
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 4: to see? Because it felt like this moment pushed the
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 4: TD shit together. I'm not saying that it was like fractured,
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 4: but you know, Kendrick left did the pg lang thing.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 4: But this moment to see everybody back together and say,
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 4: you know what, I know. I might not be on
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 4: the label no more, but this is where it started.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought that up because this brings me
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: back to what we started with, and that's culture. Cultural
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 2: nuance matters, relationships matter. There's never been a fracture in
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 2: that way. It's just a we want to see the
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: homie do his own thing.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: Cool.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: Now, this is where culture matters. Let's say there is
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: a thing. There wasn't, but let's say there is a thing.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: Let's say let's say that. Let's say that DOT doesn't
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: fuck with TD and vice versa. Right, top don't fuck
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: with dot. Let's say that hypothetically speaking, right, if you're
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: an outsider, you can't come over here and pick on that.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 4: We can pick on that, we can, but you can't.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: You can't.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: That's what people don't understand about cultural nuance and where
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: and how and where we come from. If I have
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: a brother and he special needs, I can make fun
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: of my brother.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 4: You can't.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: You can't make fun of my little brother.
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 3: Because yeah, that's a problem.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: That's why culture matters, and that's why being authentically from
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: those things matter, because if you don't, then you violate
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: said things, and now you get violated.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 4: And then you look stupid, then you look crazy. Yeah,
• 1:06:05

• 1:08:19
  Speaker 4: But just just surgically picked him apart, like, oh man,
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 4: it was just rough. It was like, you know, the
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 4: Clippers of the nineties going against like the Lakers of
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 4: the eighties or something like. It was just it was
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 4: like Michael Oli Kandy, he turns Drake into Michael Olowa
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 4: Kandi bro. You know what I'm saying. Like it's a
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 4: basketball reference and not a lot of people are gonna

  Speaker 2: The radio and the word fuck is coming up, and
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: you know it's coming up, you have you've said it
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: in your mind, like this word is coming up, so
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: I have to take that out right right, Okay, So
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: the same thing will be applied to the in word.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: If you know the in word is coming up, then
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 2: you've said it in your brain to mute it out loud.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: Does that make sense? Yeah, see that's what I thought.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: Jeremy Heck doesn't think. So he thinks that he can
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 2: mute inwards in.
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: His head, so he says it out of his mouth.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 2: No, he doesn't say it at all, but he said
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 2: that he can't mute. He said that he doesn't say
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 2: it at all, even in his break he's lying.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 4: That's what I said.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: You have to say the in word in your mind
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 2: in order to stop yourself.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, while I'm rapping songs, I definitely self edit.
