• 3:43
  Speaker 4: Yes, but we let's get into the show.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: It's a lot going on, guys, all.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: Right, Jess in case you missed it.
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: All right, guys, what do you feel about presidential candidates
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: on streaming platforms with the twitters, the streamers.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: It's important generation z man, you gotta go where they're at.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: I think it's genius.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: I think it's a great innovative idea to get young
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: adults to vote for you because streaming is a new platform,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: but it's also a platform that has a lot of
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: young people. What a president's trying to get you to do,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: they're trying to get the black vote, and they're trying
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: to get young people to vote right.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: And I also think, you know, yeah, remember shout out
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: to Charlemagne. Someone turns eighteen every day. Their potential new voters,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: and you got to go meet them where they're at.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: And I believe Trump is very smart, or the person
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: around Trump is very smart. He's doing what he did
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: to be Hillary. He's doing he's thinking outside the box.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: I've never seen the presidential candidate even acknowledge a streamer before,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: so this in itself to me is just I was like, wow, okay,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I'm a what you gonna do?
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: But what do you also think about the backlash that
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: people are giving her for like, don't bring into social media.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: That's stupid social media? Here, man, ain't going nowhere.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was just now, those are just older people
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: that are not thinking about the youth. The youth controls
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: the world, and that's what people don't understand. It's like,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: if you are running for office, you want to be
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: You want to be there to have a second term.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: You don't just want to get in office and become
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: the president and then get beat your next term. So
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: you need these young people who, like Roy said, is
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: going to turn eighteen. You need to get these youths.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: You need to get people are on the internet.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I will throw this out there and I will say this,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: I'm not really really big in politics myself, but when
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: it's time to vote, I do educate myself on who
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: these people are, and I find the person who I
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: can identify with and I vote for that person. So
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I employ implore people to do the same especially the
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: young folks who you may get turned off because it's
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: a lot of terms and things that are being said
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: that you be like, what are they talking about? What's bipartisan?
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: What's this? And you got to look these things up
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: and you gotta do the research. So take some time
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: on the weekend or on your off time and look
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: up these candidates. Look up there, what they're known for,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: what they support, who they are and generations one thing
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: about generations Z and the end of there, they gonna
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: find out. They're gonna they gonna dig deep. So who
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: we just uh not we, but who Kamaa just added
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Tim Walls, Tim Tim Wallas. We won't find out if
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: he is as clean as it shows that he is
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: so far he is. Well one thing and if y'all
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: get elected, come on get this, uh, come on, get
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: this we legalize in Georgia.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you said that because I'm a segue to this. Also,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: keep in mind that it's important to vote for your mayor,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: to vote for the governor, because those are the people
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: that have the most.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Local elections matter.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: For sure, that might be that might be even that
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: that will that will affect you more than you even know.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: Sure they matter most, you know and affect you more.
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: Facts Cardi being Offset, damn the divorce.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Damn wait wait wait the pregnancy.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: The pregnancy.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Thath boy, my boy then dropped the package off and
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: then they got about it though. Man, Look, I just
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: hope I love off Set. That's my brother, that's my guy.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I've only met Cardi once, yeah, once, but I've known
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Offset since for a very long time. I just hope.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I just hope they have a good cold parenting situation
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: and maybe they can work their marriage out. Doesn't look
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: like they will, but let's just hope for good cold parenting.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: They have three beautiful kids, well two but about to
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: be three beautiful kids together, and let's just hope for
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: good cold parents because that shit could get nasty.
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: We won't want no nasty cold parents. Yeah, I mean,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: I hope. I hope they can figure it out too.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: I think the first time we could see that there
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: was actually effort into making a relationship work.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: The marriage worked. But I feel like this time it
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: looks like it's kind of done. It looks like it's
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: done this time. Last time, I kept saying, get your
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: wife back, because.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: You remember, all Set was going on stay age and
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: bringing rolls.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: I think that was the first first first time. I
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: can't remember how many, but that's the public.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: That's the that's the public first time that that we
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: you know, we knew they had.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: But then the last time, you know, she had publicly said,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna smash my husband if
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: I need something because I'm getting horny. So she kept saying.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: And I think that they had a little rendezvous. But
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: I think now it's past. It looks like it's bad.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: It looks bad, So I just want them to hopefully
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: it could be amicably and they can have a good
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: positive coparating ship.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: Well, what did not inamicably was the closing of Bird Martini.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, R and P Red Martini or Georgia, Yeah one
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: time for Atlanta, Georgia. The biggest party I believe in
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Georgia had became this R and B party, Bart's party
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: that he does with Brian Michael Coxon. I'm gonna bring
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: you in. But I want to say it started at
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: sel Lounge, then it went to Medusa yep. Then it
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: went Red Martini. Nope. Where went after that? After Medusa
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: we went to Opera, which they changed the name. I
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: didn't like that, so I didn't like I didn't like it.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I didn't like that was weird. And then we went
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: to No No, then we went to we went to Republic.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I remember that. I remember that.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: But it's a it's a it's unfortunate because I just
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: feel like, you know, just with all the success we've
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: been having, you know, being able to get R and
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: B a uh, you know, a party and a platform
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: of people who love R and B and listen to
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: R and B.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: You just can't go to the club and hear the trap.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: I know it's a lot of fake R and B
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: parties too, because people say they're doing the R and
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: B party, and you will go to the You'll go
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: to the club and then they lay R and B
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: for one hour and they play hip.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Hop music for three straight hours. You're like, yo, what's
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: going on?
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: But I think that it's an unfortunate situation because from
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: what I was told is that there's some underlying beef
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: with the owner of the club and the landlord, and
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: the landlord does not like nightclubs, doesn't like lounges. So
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: the landlord is pressing hard because it's it's a it's
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: Red Martini. It's something, isn't it called hole in the wall? Right, yes, yep,
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: it's right there, yeah, yep. So I think I just
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: think just that area because you got to understand Atlanta
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Whiskey Mistress.
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah, until they kicked them out too, like you just
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: never know for for the audience. It's Red Martini is
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: located where yeah, yeah, yeah, and that is like very
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: close to Linux Mall. And they're cracking down very clearly
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: on clubs, crime and all of that, because recently I
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: was I heard on the news that thirty percent crime
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: is down ever since Lenox Mall, uh you know started
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: to reinforce, you know, with officers and all that in
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: the long so I guess they're trying to maybe clean
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: up the area.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think, uh shout out to uh to
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: Atlanta PD too, because I haven't been to Lenox Mall
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: and probably about five years, and I went for the
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: first time. You did enjoy You enjoyed it, right, Yeah,
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: I actually enjoyed myself. I actually went shop and it
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: was actually, you know, a great time time.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it was.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: I only go during the day during the week I
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: never go on the weekend because it's just you can't
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: even part.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: But it was smooth. They had everything you could.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: You could tell they change like they got they got
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: the Apple store in front of them, all like with
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: you know, with security police officer like you still I
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: phone out herd you get popped?
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, Uh, what do you call
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: the detectors?
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they got they got metal detectors. They're not playing around.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: But I just think this, this attack on night life
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: in Atlanta needs to stop.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: It was an attack on night life.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: I believe that it's an attack on night life.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: But I also understand that clubs being out at a
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: certain time is not very safe because there are a
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: lot of people that are prone to you know, crimes
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: and things of that nature leaving the club people.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: But one thing I will say about our party, our
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: R and B party, is we never had an incident.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: We never had a fight, we never had anything. Now
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: we're only at that club for one day a week.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: That club is open six days a week. So we
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: don't know what issues they could have with the city
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: or with the landlord that's causing the landlord to push them.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: Only thing I know is we look on social media
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: and they got bottles and sections and everything outside furniture,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: bottles like hookahs.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Everything was on the side. Yeah, so they emptied the
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: entire club.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: But to say this, like, if you realize Buckhead is
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: doing away with a lot of the clubs, look at
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: buckhn Saloon, you know, the first buck Buckhare Saloon. You know,
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: they made everybody okay, everybody on Sunday got a close
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: at twelve.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Now, yeah, you know they kind of messed up the party.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: They knew that was gonna happen that.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: But Atlanta was known for partying on Sundays. Everybody knows
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: because all the celebrities will be in town on Sundays.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: So that's how you can get the bang for your buck. Right,
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: So if you can't open up on Sundays and then
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: you're telling people, well, people need to come to your
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: club at seven or eight o clock, man, nobody's coming
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: to the club.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: You had a party, you had me DJ and that
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: was misfit. Yeah, I had misfits. Mann.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: Misfits was one of those things, man, about that the
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: most fun part of that you ever. We played hip hop,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: we play Spanish music, we play ed M music, and
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: around the corner it was around the corner for Buckhea
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: saloonis in Bucket.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: So when I love buck Care salon Head theater I had,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: I started misfitsing. I told Fri, like, yo, bro, this
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: is a fun party, and it was. It was a
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: diverse party.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: To this day. That was my favorite party. That was
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: my favorite party too.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: So I think the nightlife in Atlanta is just being ruined, man,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: And it's like, it's just sad to see, like your favorite.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Why do you think. I just feel like it's changed now.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think it's just one thing, but
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I do know it's not the time closing early heard
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: it for sure. A lot of sections, not a damn
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: floor hurt. I feel like that having the dance floor helped,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: But then you know you can't get a bang for
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: your buck. I see both sides. You know, the consumer
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: wants to dance, but the owner and the promoter makes
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: money off of a section, so dancing your section, I think.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: I think.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: I think the I think the way they cracking down
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: on these clubs, like the way the city and the committees,
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: because people don't understand there's a Buckhead committee, there's people committee, people.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Vote, That's how I learned when I worked at MEDUSA
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: they shut us down. And then I believe it was
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: after MEDUSA got shut down they shut down Man, it
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: was one Excess x x xx lounge. Yes, it was directly.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: It was directly mister Ruggs man. I was his host.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: And then yeah, it was in Beaufer Highway that that positive.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Them folks voted and they shut all that down. That's
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: what people don't understand.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: There's a there's literally a committee of people that decides
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: what they want in their community.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: And this was gonna say because I know we talk
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a little kind of we kind of talk forever on this, but.
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: It's because the people need to know, like you guys.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: Are nine life work Now, this is crazy Buckhead, I
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: mean not Buckheat, Medusa, Excess Lounge, Josephine Lounges, Right, that's Brookhaven.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: When breakings and shootings and stuff happened. That's crime that
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: makes your property values go down. Yep. The people who
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: vote their own property in that vicinity like hell no, nah,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: And they be like, nah, we're voting to shut this
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: thing down. At twelve o'clock. That was the first strike.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: We was like, what they close at twelve? I ain't
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: even leave it my house till twelve thirty. That first
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: it went to two, then it went to twelve, and
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: then after that I knew it was over because Atlanta
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: don't show up until two am.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: But keep in mind the committee. These people are not
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: just homeowners. These people are business owners as well. So
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: they're looking like I don't own a night life.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: They could sit there and say I own a pizza
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: hood or those plazas when THEY'SE was in that plaza,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: it's a whole bunch of other things in that plaza.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: And then make your property value go down when it's
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: a shooting in the parking lot, someone may have got
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: murdered or r man, what nobody think about it?
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: If you think about if you home, If you owned
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: a home close to a club and a shooting or
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: incident happens and you're trying to sell your property, but
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: your your property value goes down, you probably gonna talk
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: to somebody on the committee like a need to clean it.
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: Totally get the committee thing. But it's just like opera.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: Like you said, it's called something else, but it was
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: called opera. That girl got date raped in the club.
• 16:23

• 16:51
  Speaker 4: So do you encourage people to get involved in their communities.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, People gotta get involved in their community because the
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: people on social media. People on social media things that
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: social media is the committee. They think social media is the.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Community to vote.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: You gotta vote, You gotta go talk to people. You
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: gotta figure out who's runs the committee in your community.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: People are so fixated on who's over here, who's your
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: mayor in your district, Who's this, who's that? When other
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: meeting there are meetings that you can go to. I
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: didn't know that meeting is in americab County. I am
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: the mayor of Atlanta. There's a mayor of Cobb. There's
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: a mayor in South Fulton. By the way, I just
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: learned that South Fulton is the most highest populated African
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Amerfrican American county in the country. I didn't know that.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that either. The most black people in
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: the country the United States of America live in the
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: South Fulton. I know the idea.
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: So, in conclusion, where do you feel like knife like
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: nightlife will be in the next five years.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: It's just going to be. It's just gonna be restaurants
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: and lounges, and it's gonna be peaceful. It's gonna be chill.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: It's not going to be like the older way that
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I saw. I saw, not being Ferrari, just being Sean
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: and patron. How it was clubs and.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: It was turned up when you first got here, When I.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: First came to Atlanta, when I graduated college two thousand
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: and nine, and then be coming into the light life,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: it was still doing good. But then it started changing.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: What year was that, I'd say seventeen eighteen. More sections
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: started popping up, more things started happening. I feel like
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: more people started moving here too.
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: When you say the sections start popping up, what do
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: you mean?
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: So it used to be a dance floor. I remember
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: seeing a large dance floor in parties and people dancing
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: me too. But I can't name one place that has
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: a dance floor that's a club.
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: Can changed it with the sections.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Ag Ag introduced sections, but I don't think it was
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: him because he had a dance floor and then everyone
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: else started doing sections, and then he just started doing
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: he I remember he opened a lounge and the lounge
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: was nothing but sections. So I think those things started happening,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: and now you have a smaller amount of people. And
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: then that also changed the way that DJ got paid
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: because if it's only three hundred people in here, why
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: would I pay you one thousand dollars when my overhead
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: is less than that. So I'm thinking of the economics.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking about all these things. They're making all their
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: money off bottle service. So if I could sell a
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: section for fifteen hundred, I'm gonna put ten of them
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: in there. Do the math well, keep in mind too,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: that's just a night.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Another thing too, is that the economy isn't where it
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: used to be.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: People have to understand.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: It's like you go to a club, right, think about
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: how much it costs before you even walk into the club.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: Valet before you get to the club, starting at home outfit,
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: you get to the club, you gotta pay the valet.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Got a valet? Guy wants fifty.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: Dollars, you put off the part you're gonna spend more
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: money on parking, and you put in your gas tank
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: for the some people won't.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Then you'll park your car in the area that it
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: may get broken into. Wow, that's just how You're gonna
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: park your car on the side of the street, or
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: you're gonna park maybe a blockdown. They'll charge you ten dollars.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: They'll look over it for an hour and then walk away,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: because then you'll come back to your car be like,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: where's the the person I paid?
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: And then think about how much it costs. When you
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: get into the club, then you have to pay.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Don't let nobody left their I d Now you got
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: to pay one hundred dollars to get in. This is
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: just Atlanta. And then you get in and you don't
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: want to buy some.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Drinks regular drink twenty dollars average drink, So you know,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: sixteen or twenty dollars.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: You spending some money. Man, you're spending some money. Then
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: you're gonna be hungry after you leave, or you're gonna
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: buy some food in there, because a lot of clubs
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: in Atlanta got good food. That's one thing I will
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: say that the Chicken Wings is miraculous.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: You think nothing gonn happen to the strip clubs though, right, Nah.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Nah, the Atlanta but nothing happens at the strip club
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean, It.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Should be happening now, but it ain't gonna It ain't
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: gonna change. But think about this.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: All the strip club areas in Atlanta is not in
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: the neighborhood.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: Think about it. If you look at Magic City. Look across
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: the street from Magic City, it's a bus. It's a bus.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Look at look at the flame flame by a gas station.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Look at Onyx.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: Onyx is just in a random.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Park on the mall Strip. It's next to it's next
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: to it's next to something Onyx. It's at the corner actually,
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: and in this way you see that big space that
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: like yeah, but it's like in strip clubs are like
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: Grandfather then you know what I mean.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Like it'd be like a seeing to get rid of
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: a strip club in Atlanta. Yeah, so what.
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: Happens to all the promoters and the nightlife on the
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: club owners?
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: They got to adjust. I know I know a promoter
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: just right now that ask me for a job, Like,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: hey man, they hiring up there.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: I heard but but always tell people this when you
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: in the night life. This Atlanta is the only city
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: that I've seen to where promoters have a full time
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: job being a promoter. When I go to other cities
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: that's part time, that's say part time job.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: So so I'm always wondering a job. This this fragile.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: Why would you put all your eggs in a in
• 21:55

• 21:59
  Speaker 2: you go to l A. I know a promoter that's

  Speaker 2: famous in LA for doing parties, but that's not what
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: he do for a living.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: I would like to shout out Atlanta and the clubs
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: and the parties because for about five years of my
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: life that's all I did. And I was blessed to
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: be able to do like six different clubs because in
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: different cities you couldn't do that. You can only club falls.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: For a second, can we talk about that real quick.
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: The money part of.
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: It, it's very lucrative money money like the clubs.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Well in my day, Damn I sound old, but my day. Yeah,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: it was very lucrative for me because I was able
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: to work for multiple clubs. I was able to work
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: at Opera, I was able to work for a g
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: at compound. I was able to do so so on Friday,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: I was able to do halo on Wednesday.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: Like, can you give an example of like what you

  Speaker 4: came home with a week?
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: Like you can make up You can make anywhere from
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: a thousand to possibly three thousand a week cash. It
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: depends depends on your hustle, who you are, your brand,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: how big it is. Then you can you know, you
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: can make money on the extra stuff too, like hey,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: you need you need help. I got six parties, pull
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: up to me, pull up with me at all my parties,
• 23:12

• 23:17
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a flat feet for this right here. You
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: And you're talking about just hosting.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and imagine imagine bottle girls. You know bottle girls.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Are they making a lot of money? A lot of money,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean?
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: Especially when they get getting tables in the tables that's
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: fifteen hundred dollars.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: Slow night, So it's empty. You ain't making no money
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: to see Atlanta. You We were blessed to have moments
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: where like I'm doing a AG party. It's t I's
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: birthday and he brings X y Z like it's.
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: To other celebrity friends.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, man, Atlanta's different. Future just pops up on a
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: random day if you had a popping party. If he's
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: in the studio and he leaves, he'll literally say what's
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: going on tonight? And if someone says, oh, yeah, it's
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: such and such as POPU to night, He'll just randomly
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: pull up that. It's hard for artists to get booked
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: in Atlanta because celebrities spoil you.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Free we spoil you because like even all the situation
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: happened with Red Martini at that particular time when they
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: did so all on social media about the club being
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: evicted and stuff like that.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: We got too big. We had two big artists that
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: already had a table booked.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: It's just a random you know what I mean, Like
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: we are so I'm over here, like, okay, we gotta
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: figure out.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: I want to catch a vibe like Atlanta now has
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: turned into a good vibe. So I do think the
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: R and B parties will will continue to flourish. So
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: that's why I think it's that it's more so.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Man, I think they need to stop making army parties. Man,
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: y'all gotta figure something else out. Man, If I see
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: one more, damn art, it's about that's about five a
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: week now. But that's another reason why the clubs are suffering,
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: because everybody's selling the same food. If everybody is selling hamburgers,
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: how somebody.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Ain't gonna make it. Somebody business is not gonna make
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: it good. I know one is your party, but it's
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: two good R and B parties. It's one. It's the
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: one on Monday, yep, shout out the break and it's
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: the one on Wednesday Monday. Is that suite upstairs? And
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: then what was the other one? You said, R and
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: B Wednesday? But shit, what the hell y'all gonna go?
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna figure it out. If there is
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: ANIBA mention, that's the third the third one a revel
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: on Thursday. Like yo, y'all shout out Jay, Chris, shout
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: out bow tie.
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: You didn't tell say what the money was today?
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: For me?
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: For me, it's great, you know, it's just it's really
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: just based on your brand, honestly, because it's certain times
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: like I don't do it anymore.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: But when I first started off, I used to do
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: like three clubs a night. Yeah, me too. So I would.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: I would find a little restaurant that I could go host.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: I'll be there, you know, from from ten to twelve.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: I'll find me an early party where I can be
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: the opening host. I'll do that from you know, uh
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: uh ten, I mean sorry, from uh twelve to like
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: one thirty, I will run out that club. I'll try
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: to go get to a c up at one forty five,
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: beat her to three thirty.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: You know. So for me, it was really good because
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: I always have to hustle, you know.
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: So can you just want to talk to like the
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: promoter there, Well.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: I would just build my own relationship. Sometimes it's both. Yes,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: they'll meet you together or you know, once you you
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: start bubbling, you know, people start calling. That's why.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: That's why I realize, if you're really good at what
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: you do, you don't have to call people.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: People gonna call you, they gonna find you. And that's
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: just out. That's a different thing. Yeah, you just start out.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: You gotta try to get you know.
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: So you know Joe blow in his in his small
• 26:34
  Speaker 5: town want to be a hook club host?
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so party hosts, I would say, don't do it.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say. Usually people hire hosts who are
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: already established brands and personalities because it's a familiar voice
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: and a familiar face. You're a host. It's hard to
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: start out as a host. I would say, get popular
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: doing something else. I would say I was.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: I would say, have a skill set, be DJing, learn
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: how to DJ, because a DJ is more valuable. Get
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: on the radio, Get on the radio, or get a
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: popping podcast or something something that can gravitate people to say,
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: oh I know him.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: But we gotta start being honest with people. And this this,
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: this is this year.
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: Whe I'm gonna start well, I'm gonna start being honest
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: with people. It's too many damn hosts. It's too many
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: damn DJs. Some of y'all need to.
• 27:22

• 27:56
  Speaker 4: Just how to feel about podcasts.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Hey, that's that's what one of the things that I
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: said on Big Home shout out to our podcast. We've
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: been doing podcasts way before people podcasts were popular. See
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: how long have y'all been doing a ball Alert show?
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: I was on the first ball Alert show in twenty
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: and sixteen? How long have you been doing seventeen? See?
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: And y'all and y'all motherfuckers just start, y'all need to stop. Man, everybody, No,
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: you don't tell people to stop. Yes, we have to
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: be honest with people. If they're everybody every good. Continue
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: if they're not good, But how do you become?
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: But listen, that's the problem. Nobody's telling people they suck.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Everybody's telling people that they're good enough to go do something. Man,
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: come out, let me at Ferrari Simmons. I'll let you know.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: If I let you know, if you need work, if
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: you need to stop, it's gonna cost, it's gonna call.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I have my PayPal information like he was free.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: But you say, how smooth it? That's y'all in the conversation,
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: y'all just hit me up. I'm gonna see y'all look
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: on type of drinking man. Want to have a Drinka
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: for that? Shout out to drinker man, about to have
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: our skin. Can't wait? Take this to the house to
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: the wife. We'll be right.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Stay tuned with more of the Ball or Alert Show.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: It's love versus money on the Ball or Alert Show.
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: All right today, well of love versus money.
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna give the couple and you let me know
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: if it's love or is it just business.
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: Today we have Big Sean and Janey Iyoka.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Oh that's love. No, that's love. That's love. They are
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: just they just had you know, it's just a it's
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: a moment that they haven't. I don't like what Big
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Sean said one time for Big Sean's my guy. I
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: don't like what Big Sean. I don't like what he
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: said though that marriage. About marriage, I feel like as
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: a married person you're always gonna go through things regardless.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: So you're gonna go through things whether you're married or not.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: You can go through things with you in a regular
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: relationship or not. So to say you want things to
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: be right before you get married is kind of saying, Okay,
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: do I really want to be with this person. If
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: that's your person, marry the person that you want to
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: be with and go through those things and grow through
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: those things with that person together. That's what a marriage
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: actually is, getting through things together and overcoming them together.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: That's what marriage is.
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: And then deciding factors if you are willing to deal
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: with that for the rest of your life.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that. Be it. I feel like that's what
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: he had, That's what he needs to say or think
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: in his mind, like, all right, is that my person
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: that I want to go through the bullshit with?
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: So that's what you saying. So basically what you're saying,
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: he's not ready to be married.
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: I would rather just say that matter of fact, just
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: tell her that she's like, I'm not ready to get
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: married yet.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: I can tell he don't want to answer that question, but.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: He answered because he kind of went it was like
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: it was like an eight.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: It was like, dude, what are you doing? What do
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: you saying? This is actually worse than actually.
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: Saying you don't want to marry.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: I know she like what But in the answer, you
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: can tell that he's not ready.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. We can tell. So I would
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: just say on me, I know, man, and who's married.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: I know it's love though I know he clearly loves
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: that lady, that woman. I know he loves that woman,
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: and I know she loves him. But I think that
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: they're probably they're in a funk. And sometimes couples go
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: through a funk. See Robby knowing it, Robby knowing relationship.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: I'd be laying to say, my marriage with my wife
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: Tannisia is perfect. We be going through funks too, but
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: I know I want to be with her. So the
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: way that I view it is I'm not going to
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: be mad at her to a point where I hate
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: you or something like that. It's gonna be all right.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: She getting on my nerves, but this is my person.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Let me figure out how to work through this, work
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: through this with her. She's not feeling me right now,
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: and it's okay, let's work through this. But you have
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: to go through it to understand it too.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: But how is how important it is for somebody to
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: have a kid with somebody's question for both of y'all
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: and her.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Parenting is crazy. But I'm saying, but it's like people.
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: More commitment to have kids versus marriage.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's it. They're different types of commitments because you
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: can have a dope cold parenting situation with somebody and
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: then not be with them. But then you can also
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: have a difficult one because like someone may have someone
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: may be super strict, someone may be super not strict,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: and then now you, guys, are someone may have religious
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: beliefs about certain certain things, like cold parenting is very difficult,
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: or it can be completely opposite and be easy.
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: But it's also a commitment.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: It's a call, it's that's a lifelong commitment to share
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: a child.
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: But that's what a lot of the comments will bet saying,
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: like a lot of people are saying, well, having a
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: child with somebody is more than of a commitment than
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: a marriage.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Well, I would like to say, because I mean, so
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: my religious beliefs are when I'm committed to my wife
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: through marriage, this that's a forever commitment for me. Same
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: thing with the kids and the mothers of my kids.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: I have two mothers of my I have two outside
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: kids of my marriage before my marriage, and I have
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: a lifelong commitment to them with my child. Now, is
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: it a lot easier because my kids are older? Hell yeah,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: my sixteen year old and my twelve year old by
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: thirteen year old. It's easy to communicate because I could
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: just text them, and then of course I still have
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: to talk to mom about like the very serious things.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: But the communication is so easy because I could call
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: them and they're older. My sixty year old, she's a teenager,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: she's in eleventh grade. We can have a complex conversation,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: how are you doing? Da da da da, And she'd
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: be like that da da da da. All right, Well
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: make sure you talk to your mom about this or
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: all right, cool, I'll talk to Tanisa about this. Blah
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. So we having a complex conversation
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: a baby. You can't talk to the baby. You gotta
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: talk to the parent. So it it's levels to it.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: You gotta take time. This shit takes time.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: So you think it's so you think it's more of
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: a commitment having a kid than being married.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: I feel like it's different levels, Tom, I feel like, man, yes, man,
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: I can't answer that because it's it's it's it's so,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: it's so deep married all right, it's deep. Pause, it's deep.
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: Like I could tell that they well from outside looking
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: there that Big Sean and Janey, I feel like they
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: each other's person. They look so good together. They look
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: like they fit. If they're a puzzle in nine years,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: so it looks like they're just going together nine years.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: It looks like they're going through something. And if you
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: listen to their joint album, you could tell that there's
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: something there between both of them, like, oh wow, you
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: guys make great music together. Also, ye bro that album,
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: that joint project that they put out was so far.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: I listened to that. I don't you know, y'all know me.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: I don't like R and B. But one time of
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: that acho, I went to the concert, took my daughters
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: for their birthday, and my wife, I ain't gonna lie.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: She lit it lit. I went to the concert. We
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: stayed the whole time. Usually I'd be ready to get
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: up out of there.
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: She brought out B two K recently too.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah she she did. No, I didn't know she had
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: a full sister, say mama, So I don't know how
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: o Marion was on her little fizz.
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: All right, man, when that leads us to our pep talk,
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: we need a pep talk out of here, Rory.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: And you've been, you know, speaking love all this time?
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: You got any love? Pep talk?
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Uh to stop lying? Stop lying to each other like
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: you know. Sometimes in that sometimes it could be I
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: ain't talking to the gods talking to the ladies too, Like,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: just stop lying, stop lying to yourself, stop lying to
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: each other, keep it all the way abuck. I feel
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: like that trims away all the bullshit up front. If
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: something's going on, you feel away about something, man, please
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: could overy communicate with the person. This could be in
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: friendships too, I've learned in friendships sometimes everybody ain't meant
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: to go with y'all all the way through. Okay. You
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: could be best friends with somebody for five six years
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden things happen and you
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: ain't friends like that no more. It's okay, It's okay.
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: Ten people grow apart.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: Some people grow apart. Stop lying now, stop lining.
