- 0:00Speaker 1: But I'm living in illusion, you know, I'm trying to
- 0:03Speaker 1: dip unfathomable, unfathomable nuggets in the sauce of the cosmos.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Every day we have more dumb fucks than we've ever had.
- 0:12Speaker 2: It is a chosen stupidity, is a chosen ignorance that
- 0:16Speaker 2: I think so many people are operating with.
- 0:18Speaker 3: I'm in our kiss in that way.
- 0:19Speaker 1: I really believe on setting shit on far Dan, you know,
- 0:23Speaker 1: sweeping the ashes off.
- 0:29Speaker 2: Hey, guys, welcome to Personal. I'm Joy Taylor. Make sure
- 0:32Speaker 2: you hit subscribe if you haven't already. Really excited to
- 0:35Speaker 2: talk to gwap Dad four thousand today onto Personal. He's
- 0:38Speaker 2: a Grammy Grammy nominated recording artists, a rapper, performer, and
- 0:43Speaker 2: actor and a good friend of mine and that is
- 0:45Speaker 2: going to be a great conversation.
- 0:48Speaker 3: But before we get to that.
- 0:50Speaker 2: In today's episode of men will Do Anything But Go
- 0:53Speaker 2: to Therapy, I came across this article that you know,
- 0:58Speaker 2: it takes a lot to shock me on the Internet
- 1:01Speaker 2: these days, just quite a bit of stuff on there,
- 1:04Speaker 2: but this story really really put it over the edge
- 1:09Speaker 2: for me. It was an article published by The New
- 1:11Speaker 2: York Post that men are using AI software to create
- 1:17Speaker 2: hyper realistic romantic partners, only to berate and degrade them.
- 1:25Speaker 2: So basically, they're creating AI girlfriends that they have these
- 1:30Speaker 2: sexual relationships with, and then after they verbally abuse them,
- 1:37Speaker 2: they threaten to uninstall the app, They call them super
- 1:42Speaker 2: degrading names, and basically have a verbally abusive relationship with
- 1:48Speaker 2: their AI girlfriends. Are y'all okay? Like, are you okay?
- 1:59Speaker 2: I'm sending out the are men okay? As someone who
- 2:03Speaker 2: is a survivor. Obviously this is incredibly triggering and the
- 2:07Speaker 2: sound of the story is really insane, But I actually
- 2:10Speaker 2: think I'm starting to believe that it's really a problem.
- 2:15Speaker 2: The idea of creating a fake girlfriend for you to
- 2:19Speaker 2: abuse that should be a sign that you need to
- 2:22Speaker 2: talk to someone. And I'm not being sarcastic. It's time.
- 2:29Speaker 2: It's time. It's not okay because it's a robot. It
- 2:32Speaker 2: is very troubling that someone would even have the idea
- 2:37Speaker 2: of this, let alone this being an actual thing that
- 2:40Speaker 2: men are doing. And I understand that there is this
- 2:44Speaker 2: loneliness epidemic going on with men in society. One third
- 2:47Speaker 2: of young men feel that no one will fall in
- 2:49Speaker 2: love with them. Men feel like they can't fill the
- 2:53Speaker 2: role of provider, so there's sixteen point three times more
- 2:56Speaker 2: likely to contemplate suicide. Sixty nine percent of young men
- 2:59Speaker 2: agree with the statement that no one cares if men
- 3:01Speaker 2: are okay. A lot of young people feel like they
- 3:04Speaker 2: will never find love in their life. I understand that
- 3:07Speaker 2: there are some real issues facing people and their ability
- 3:13Speaker 2: to connect with others, and the gender war that we
- 3:17Speaker 2: sometimes have kind of playful conversations about actually is a
- 3:20Speaker 2: real thing that affects people. That being said, it's not
- 3:24Speaker 2: women's faults that men are having trouble connecting with human women.
- 3:30Speaker 2: It is not women's faults that the patriarchy has created
- 3:36Speaker 2: these gender roles where men are supposed to provide and
- 3:39Speaker 2: women are supposed to take care of the home. And
- 3:41Speaker 2: now that women have finally achieved some autonomy to be
- 3:45Speaker 2: able to have control over their finances so that I
- 3:47Speaker 2: don't know, if their husband is beating them, they can
- 3:51Speaker 2: take their kids and leave. And circling back to how
- 3:55Speaker 2: this conversation started, men are creating fake women to abuse online,
- 4:02Speaker 2: so the idea that women were getting abused at home
- 4:05Speaker 2: should not be that crazy to hear.
- 4:08Speaker 3: It is the patriarchy's fault.
- 4:09Speaker 2: And when we talk about the patriarchy all there's this
- 4:12Speaker 2: immediate eye roll that comes to everyone. But the fact
- 4:15Speaker 2: of the matter is the patriarchy doesn't just hurt women.
- 4:19Speaker 2: It creates a space where men cannot be empathetic, they
- 4:23Speaker 2: cannot have feelings, they cannot provide something other than money,
- 4:30Speaker 2: and that seems to be something that is emotionally affecting
- 4:33Speaker 2: a lot of young men and men in general. If
- 4:36Speaker 2: you don't want to be looked at as only the provider,
- 4:39Speaker 2: then bring more to the table than provisions. But in
- 4:43Speaker 2: order to do that, you have to develop a personality.
- 4:45Speaker 2: You have to be an empathetic person. You have to
- 4:48Speaker 2: care about what other people want that goes beyond money.
- 4:52Speaker 2: That's why a lot of women are talking about now
- 4:56Speaker 2: connecting with men and the idea that the traditional roles
- 5:01Speaker 2: don't play the same factor in dating. Yes, there's a
- 5:05Speaker 2: lot of propaganda online that women only want to be
- 5:08Speaker 2: with millionaires. There's also a lot of propaganda online that
- 5:11Speaker 2: men only want to be with women with bbls. The
- 5:14Speaker 2: reality is, if you go outside and touch grass, there
- 5:17Speaker 2: are millions of people, billions of people who are just
- 5:20Speaker 2: out there looking for love, looking for connection, looking for relationships,
- 5:24Speaker 2: but you have to provide more than just provisions. Yes,
- 5:28Speaker 2: there's a new age and sometimes you might meet a
- 5:32Speaker 2: woman who wants just material things and guess what, She's
- 5:35Speaker 2: not for you. And if it's a woman who has
- 5:40Speaker 2: access to material things or her own material things, then
- 5:42Speaker 2: she might want just personality And if you don't have
- 5:46Speaker 2: one of those, she's not for you. But I would
- 5:50Speaker 2: encourage if you are someone who has decided to make
- 5:54Speaker 2: an AI bot to abuse, not joking, please seek. This
- 6:00Speaker 2: is so deeply disturbing that we have reached this point
- 6:04Speaker 2: in society where this is a thing. It's not like
- 6:07Speaker 2: one guy did this. Like not only do they think
- 6:11Speaker 2: this is something that they should do, but they actually
- 6:15Speaker 2: think it's positive because they're not abusing a real person.
- 6:22Speaker 2: This is where we are, guys, All right, Time to
- 6:26Speaker 2: talk to my friend gap Dad. I am so excited
- 6:30Speaker 2: to have Grammy nominated artists gab Dad four thousand on
- 6:34Speaker 2: the show Rappers, songwriter, actor, creative and a dear friend.
- 6:38Speaker 3: Welcome Wop. Thank you for having me in your summer fit.
- 6:42Speaker 3: Yeah yeah yeah, big boy pants.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Big boy pants.
- 6:44Speaker 3: Yeah, Goop is quite the dresser. What is your style
- 6:48Speaker 3: inspiration right now?
- 6:52Speaker 1: It swings in between like the fifties and the seventies,
- 6:57Speaker 1: pulling from a lot of black brown silhouettes, from like
- 7:02Speaker 1: traditional to dandy like hippi shit. Sometimes, yeah, do.
- 7:09Speaker 2: You feel like sometimes in style for men there like
- 7:13Speaker 2: there's a hesitation to go back to those eras because
- 7:17Speaker 2: we've won, not us. But you know, some people have
- 7:21Speaker 2: made it seem like it's like feminine to.
- 7:23Speaker 3: Do all that. Why is that?
- 7:27Speaker 1: I mean, I think because it's still you know how
- 7:30Speaker 1: every six months you gonna see a tweet from like
- 7:35Speaker 1: some random, like really burly black looking dude about how
- 7:39Speaker 1: it was like a gay agenda or something that's that's
- 7:42Speaker 1: always in rotation.
- 7:44Speaker 3: He's got to be burly, you know, patchy beerd but
- 7:48Speaker 3: like it.
- 7:50Speaker 2: Doesn't connect, you know what, it's always the beards that
- 7:52Speaker 2: doesn't connect for the gay agenda.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Every time you're gonna see some shit like that. I
- 7:56Speaker 1: can't really describe the root of it, but I think
- 7:59Speaker 1: that's like the essence of that hate. And then it
- 8:03Speaker 1: kind of waters down and people just not rocking with
- 8:06Speaker 1: certain things.
- 8:08Speaker 2: You know. The irony of it is there's like a
- 8:11Speaker 2: trend on TikTok and I see it on ID two
- 8:14Speaker 2: of dressing for the female gaze versus dressing for the
- 8:18Speaker 2: male gaze and gays gays, I gaze not gaye. Just
- 8:24Speaker 2: so everyone is paying attention.
- 8:26Speaker 4: I mean, it's kind of like a double entendre.
- 8:29Speaker 2: But I am saying I gaze and when you're dressed
- 8:34Speaker 2: for women, it's like this, and it is more tailored,
- 8:40Speaker 2: it's more specific, it's more intentional. And the irony is
- 8:44Speaker 2: that is what will be labeled as the gay agenda.
- 8:48Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean that's people who maybe those dudes
- 8:53Speaker 1: really want a woman who only has those type of
- 8:57Speaker 1: ideals in black and white about what masculine effeminine food
- 9:01Speaker 1: for them, niggas. I like women and I want women
- 9:04Speaker 1: to like me, So I'm dressing for the female gags
- 9:08Speaker 1: and the female gags.
- 9:12Speaker 3: Maybe stealing fish for me too.
- 9:16Speaker 2: Where you get your confidence in that though, because you
- 9:19Speaker 2: are you are an extremely confident person, but your confidence
- 9:24Speaker 2: is understated, if I might say, because.
- 9:30Speaker 1: I like to keep it at confidence. The problem with
- 9:32Speaker 1: having such big uh admiration for myself and belief in
- 9:40Speaker 1: my ability or abilities, it's a thin line between holding
- 9:47Speaker 1: that and then just being vain or like pure out
- 9:50Speaker 1: of the ego, So I like to keep it under rasper.
- 9:54Speaker 1: I like to you scaled it that way, because I
- 9:56Speaker 1: feel like anything on the other side, it's just kind
- 9:59Speaker 1: of poisonous to this self.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Do have you had an experience with your ego that
- 10:03Speaker 2: you didn't like?
- 10:04Speaker 3: Yeah, all the time. All the time. I don't really
- 10:07Speaker 3: feel awkwardness, you know.
- 10:09Speaker 1: I have to like look at body language to know
- 10:11Speaker 1: when somebody feels awkward or uncomfortable.
- 10:14Speaker 3: That was a learned thing for me.
- 10:16Speaker 1: So being as blunt a speaker as I am, I
- 10:19Speaker 1: done ran into all kind of miscommunications. People call me
- 10:22Speaker 1: a gig or think I don't care about things that
- 10:25Speaker 1: I'm really passionate about. But I wasn't able to look
- 10:29Speaker 1: outside of my own ego and perceive myself in the moments.
- 10:32Speaker 2: Bec then, I think I struggle with ego a lot
- 10:37Speaker 2: because I'm a man and I kind of feel like
- 10:42Speaker 2: in some ways, I don't want to I don't want
- 10:45Speaker 2: to lose the benefits of having an ego because I
- 10:49Speaker 2: think ego and confidence are sort of and power are
- 10:53Speaker 2: kind of all intertwined. And in order to move around
- 10:57Speaker 2: a world that doesn't want you in a lot of spaces,
- 11:00Speaker 2: and you know, defending yourself from the power of haters
- 11:05Speaker 2: and showing up as yourself in your full you know, glory.
- 11:11Speaker 2: It kind of requires a little bit of delusion.
- 11:15Speaker 1: I'm a delusional ass nigga. I'm gonna tell you that
- 11:18Speaker 1: right now. But for me, my delusion isn't really attached
- 11:24Speaker 1: to my ego so directly, you know, it's really attached
- 11:28Speaker 1: to every Like I think everything is possible, whether I
- 11:31Speaker 1: am physically capable of doing it currently or not. I
- 11:35Speaker 1: feel like that's where my ego gets checked. But I'm
- 11:37Speaker 1: living in delusion, you know. I'm trying to dip unfathomable,
- 11:42Speaker 1: unfathomable nuggets in the salt of the cosmos every day.
- 11:48Speaker 2: I love you. Where's your creativity take you? Most times?
- 11:58Speaker 2: Because I find when I'm in a creative space, I'm
- 12:00Speaker 2: usually a little sad.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely get creative when I'm sad.
- 12:08Speaker 3: For sure?
- 12:09Speaker 2: Is that your best creative space? Because in some ways
- 12:11Speaker 2: I believe. I believe when I look at certain artists
- 12:15Speaker 2: and you look at what's happening in their life, sometimes
- 12:20Speaker 2: their best work is tied to their you know, raws
- 12:24Speaker 2: moments or most painful moments.
- 12:28Speaker 3: I think, for me.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Maybe my realist songs is when I pull from note
- 12:32Speaker 1: from that trauma for those experiences, and it is like
- 12:36Speaker 1: the bottom line, but like things that I feel like
- 12:40Speaker 1: super ring true to me when I'm making a song.
- 12:43Speaker 3: But I think I'm the happy.
- 12:44Speaker 1: I like am the most creative when my life is lit,
- 12:48Speaker 1: when I'm seeing progress in like all my endeavors, and
- 12:51Speaker 1: I just have the freedom to clock out and make
- 12:55Speaker 1: a song, That's when I make the best.
- 12:58Speaker 3: Shit.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Do you like to write? Does it hit you random
- 13:04Speaker 2: times or do you have to make time to write,
- 13:06Speaker 2: because I have to make time to write.
- 13:09Speaker 3: It depends on what it is.
- 13:11Speaker 1: When I was doing like the freestyle series I was trying.
- 13:14Speaker 1: I took the time out to write those and study
- 13:18Speaker 1: and do the homework so I could deliver them and
- 13:20Speaker 1: execute them in the.
- 13:21Speaker 3: Way that people will respect. But I was just in Chicago.
- 13:26Speaker 1: Chance to Rapper had a skating rink party and they
- 13:28Speaker 1: would playing a chechno instrumental. I freestyled to that bitch
- 13:32Speaker 1: for like eight minutes on loop, doing laps around the ring.
- 13:35Speaker 1: I'm talking about sweating. I had to come out the shirt.
- 13:39Speaker 3: It was weird. I got sweaty, But I was just
- 13:41Speaker 3: typing on my phone the whole.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Time you were skating and typing, feeling it too, feeling
- 13:46Speaker 2: it You didn't fall?
- 13:48Speaker 1: No, no, no, I'm way more played in it. I've
- 13:51Speaker 1: been through that already. I spent my time on the
- 13:55Speaker 1: hardwood like the rest of us.
- 13:58Speaker 2: Can you do the like a the crossover move?
- 14:01Speaker 3: Yep?
- 14:02Speaker 2: Yeah, that was my big move at the skating rink.
- 14:04Speaker 2: I couldn't do shit, but across the other foot, I'll
- 14:09Speaker 2: be aul dramatic about it, like I'm doing something.
- 14:11Speaker 1: Yeah, skating backwards, are still fall or I could still fall?
- 14:16Speaker 2: But nah, I can't do no skating backwards. I don't
- 14:18Speaker 2: even I haven't been roller skating in quite some time.
- 14:23Speaker 2: Ice skating is tough, though it messes up my ankles
- 14:25Speaker 2: are too skinny. Not for me, not for me. We
- 14:31Speaker 2: always have really interesting conversations about society and politics. I obviously,
- 14:39Speaker 2: like most people, am super exhausted with watching people burn
- 14:42Speaker 2: the world to the ground. Yeah, save save How are
- 14:53Speaker 2: you handling all the barrage of news every day?
- 15:00Speaker 3: You know?
- 15:00Speaker 1: I expected it, right, I expected it when honestly, either
- 15:06Speaker 1: candidate that was just in this last race, whoever would
- 15:10Speaker 1: have won. I expected it, But this year, we was
- 15:13Speaker 1: kind of barreling into this. Regardless, I think our current
- 15:17Speaker 1: president is clearly amplified that put us on the fast
- 15:21Speaker 1: track to what I felt like was coming anyway, But
- 15:24Speaker 1: here it go.
- 15:26Speaker 2: You felt like the collapse of the empire was coming.
- 15:33Speaker 3: I prayed for it. Actually I didn't.
- 15:35Speaker 2: Prayed on our downfall. Why do you think that it
- 15:40Speaker 2: needs to fall?
- 15:43Speaker 1: I'm an ar kiss in that way. I'm from Oakland, California.
- 15:46Speaker 1: I really believe on setting shit on fire, then you know,
- 15:49Speaker 1: sweeping the ashes off. And at this point, especially with
- 15:53Speaker 1: all that has been revealed, for the politicians in our government,
- 15:58Speaker 1: the whole cabinet, everybody is a compromise like Zionist supporter.
- 16:05Speaker 1: All these things keep getting deleted and everybody I had
- 16:10Speaker 1: to stop.
- 16:10Speaker 3: Talking about this.
- 16:12Speaker 1: Maybe like last year, I was losing deals and shit,
- 16:15Speaker 1: everybody was like, no, that's anti semitic. I'm happy that
- 16:18Speaker 1: the Internet is caught up to that knowledge. But clearly
- 16:21Speaker 1: with the release, with the renag of the Epstein fucking
- 16:26Speaker 1: crist shit, it's like, bro, they could really they really
- 16:30Speaker 1: think that everybody in this country is dumb as fuck.
- 16:34Speaker 2: Well, a lot of people in this country are dumb
- 16:37Speaker 2: as fuck up a lot. I think more are dumb
- 16:41Speaker 2: as fuck than are not.
- 16:42Speaker 3: Dumb as fuck. I'd agree, I think more.
- 16:46Speaker 2: We have more dumb fucks than we've ever had because
- 16:49Speaker 2: I don't think that it's just a matter of access
- 16:52Speaker 2: to information or education. There are brilliant people who do
- 16:56Speaker 2: not have high levels of education or experience that are
- 17:00Speaker 2: just born gifted, that can figure things out, build things,
- 17:04Speaker 2: create things, run things. It is a chosen stupidity, is
- 17:09Speaker 2: a chosen ignorance that I think so many people are
- 17:12Speaker 2: operating with. And as an intellectual, it's exhausting because I
- 17:16Speaker 2: know how much I don't know.
- 17:18Speaker 3: Yep.
- 17:19Speaker 2: I think it's a privilege to know what I do know,
- 17:20Speaker 2: but I know how much I don't know, And I
- 17:22Speaker 2: don't think it is cool, like cute to talk about
- 17:26Speaker 2: things I don't know anything about.
- 17:29Speaker 1: It's like an addiction for people, especially because they get
- 17:33Speaker 1: so many people to support them wrong or right. It's
- 17:38Speaker 1: that's really it's more than like ease of access or
- 17:42Speaker 1: you know, the air of information. It's really the area
- 17:45Speaker 1: like baby cults, influencers have come to the point where
- 17:53Speaker 1: you can really like control somebody's whole day from everything
- 17:57Speaker 1: you recommend to how they sleep. I think that there's
- 18:03Speaker 1: a moral line that needs to be drawn eventually when
- 18:07Speaker 1: all this shit is said and done.
- 18:09Speaker 3: About who really gets to talk about what?
- 18:11Speaker 1: Because it's too much power right now, or it'll get
- 18:17Speaker 1: too much right now. As a person who wants to
- 18:20Speaker 1: see it burn, some of those people still need the
- 18:22Speaker 1: power because they got to burn it down. I'm saying
- 18:26Speaker 1: they got to burn it down, but then't after that,
- 18:28Speaker 1: we're gonna have to have some checks and balance and around
- 18:30Speaker 1: his mother.
- 18:31Speaker 2: Well, there used to be gate keeping, but of course,
- 18:36Speaker 2: like anything, they abuse the gatekeeping. So it could only
- 18:39Speaker 2: be certain demographics of people that had access to this
- 18:42Speaker 2: level of education and these kind of resources. And so
- 18:46Speaker 2: therefore those people were the only ones that got hired
- 18:49Speaker 2: to work in media. They were the only ones that
- 18:51Speaker 2: got put in positions to be doctors. They're the only
- 18:54Speaker 2: ones that put in position to be politicians. So there
- 18:57Speaker 2: was now they weren't necessarily unqualified, but they were still
- 19:02Speaker 2: selected because of who and what they were. So there
- 19:06Speaker 2: was there was this level of gatekeeping that made sense,
- 19:09Speaker 2: except for you weren't allowing other people into the space.
- 19:11Speaker 2: So now the over correction is everybody can talk and
- 19:16Speaker 2: it's like, no, you don't know what the fuck you're
- 19:19Speaker 2: talking about. And if your provision to society is to
- 19:22Speaker 2: just talk about how you feel or whatever, like cool.
- 19:26Speaker 2: My issue is people showing up as subject matter experts
- 19:29Speaker 2: on shit they don't know nothing the fuck about. And
- 19:32Speaker 2: it's very obvious from the start, but I think there
- 19:34Speaker 2: is because we have devalued. We've devalued experts so much
- 19:40Speaker 2: that now if somebody says something that you like to hear,
- 19:43Speaker 2: you just put them on a pedestal.
- 19:44Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 19:46Speaker 1: I think that's remnant of like clickbait culture. You know
- 19:49Speaker 1: how some people just believe whatever big bold black text
- 19:53Speaker 1: is over topped the meme subconsciously. Now that has rolled
- 19:58Speaker 1: over into favorite on the internet with downloading information and
- 20:03Speaker 1: processing that, Like people really just plan and choose your
- 20:07Speaker 1: own truth.
- 20:09Speaker 3: Live in our face.
- 20:11Speaker 2: If you when everything burns to the ground because it's inevitable,
- 20:14Speaker 2: what would be the first thing that.
- 20:16Speaker 1: You do, Man, try to salvage whatever I feel like
- 20:23Speaker 1: could have worked or was working from the ashes and
- 20:27Speaker 1: let the wind blow away the rest.
- 20:31Speaker 2: Do you think that AI is as problematic as everyone?
- 20:35Speaker 1: I think I think if you really got a problem
- 20:38Speaker 1: with AI on it from a creative standpoint. When to
- 20:41Speaker 1: come of business information and the government, we always should
- 20:45Speaker 1: be I'm always going to be leaning towards giving them
- 20:48Speaker 1: less power. Yeah, less god level actions to conduct secretly
- 20:54Speaker 1: or lie or it's about but creative.
- 20:59Speaker 3: If you are creative, you scare the AI.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Then unfortunately for you, technology has passed up the years
- 21:06Speaker 1: that you dedicated to whever that specific trade is that
- 21:10Speaker 1: you feel so endangered in. You should be now using
- 21:14Speaker 1: this as a tool to empower whatever it is. And
- 21:18Speaker 1: if you can't learn something else, my boy, I'm tired
- 21:22Speaker 1: of people. I got a million ways to incorporate it
- 21:26Speaker 1: in the workflow. As somebody who draws everything from scratch,
- 21:31Speaker 1: sketch everything from scratch, I've been drawing my whole life.
- 21:35Speaker 1: I could find a way to use that to empower
- 21:38Speaker 1: the workflow and not take away from real art.
- 21:41Speaker 3: Like I'm not.
- 21:43Speaker 1: Everybody got a chat GPT flyer up right now. I
- 21:47Speaker 1: know the exact style, the exact art, the filter, the
- 21:50Speaker 1: little brown shitty thing is going to put on that.
- 21:53Speaker 1: I'd be even telling people if you had chat GPT
- 21:57Speaker 1: designed something, you like it so much, send it to me,
- 22:00Speaker 1: I'll redraw it for you. Put it in an illustrator,
- 22:02Speaker 1: change it to your company colors, and you can have
- 22:04Speaker 1: a real graphic asset.
- 22:06Speaker 3: People ain't even doing that.
- 22:08Speaker 1: They're like, don't send me no AI, slop bully, you
- 22:10Speaker 1: don't want no bread.
- 22:12Speaker 3: All this puris shit.
- 22:14Speaker 1: I would love to hear how like an aol peuris
- 22:17Speaker 1: felt about Wi Fi when that shit came out, you.
- 22:20Speaker 3: Know, like a dial up, like it's over, Like come on.
- 22:26Speaker 1: You think Blockbuster was really fucking with the Netflix boxes.
- 22:30Speaker 1: When you come across something that's so so dynamic, with
- 22:36Speaker 1: so much power and it is changing the field, you
- 22:39Speaker 1: gotta roll with the punches.
- 22:41Speaker 3: That's how I feel. I agree.
- 22:42Speaker 2: I mean, I think as far as like the government
- 22:45Speaker 2: and all that stuff, I'm with you, like they shouldn't
- 22:47Speaker 2: be able to control everything anyway. But when it comes
- 22:52Speaker 2: to being creative. I was just having this conversation who
- 22:54Speaker 2: was I talking to, I don't know, somebody the other
- 22:56Speaker 2: day about how you know how dangerous AI is, and
- 23:04Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, but I I think if you
- 23:07Speaker 2: spend time with it and study how you can master
- 23:12Speaker 2: it and how you can make yourself more efficient, then
- 23:16Speaker 2: you'll always have a job, like even in the creative space.
- 23:19Speaker 2: But I also fundamentally believe, because you know, I'd be
- 23:23Speaker 2: paying attention to young people that as much as we
- 23:26Speaker 2: get more and more technologically advanced and rely more on technology,
- 23:31Speaker 2: people in the contrast, are craving more authentic things.
- 23:35Speaker 3: We're craving more individual art.
- 23:37Speaker 2: We're craving more things we can touch and feel and
- 23:42Speaker 2: that really feel like true creativity and connection. So they
- 23:48Speaker 2: were talking about, like, you know, creating an AI like show.
- 23:51Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, but who I'm not watching an AI
- 23:54Speaker 2: show like. I'm not watching that no matter how good
- 23:57Speaker 2: it is.
- 23:58Speaker 3: I don't want to watch that.
- 23:59Speaker 2: I want to watch person talk to me like, I
- 24:02Speaker 2: don't have that level of disconnection to the planet. And
- 24:05Speaker 2: I know some people do, but I don't think enough
- 24:07Speaker 2: to yet. Maybe I'm delusional.
- 24:10Speaker 1: I mean, I know there are certain situations right now
- 24:14Speaker 1: that are happening in Asia.
- 24:16Speaker 3: These like virtual creators have.
- 24:20Speaker 1: Millions of followers and subscribers for like AI things, but
- 24:26Speaker 1: it hasn't rolled over into the greater world yet. I
- 24:30Speaker 1: will say that those that's what people why people shouldn't
- 24:35Speaker 1: be scared AI cannot I follow this dude. I think
- 24:40Speaker 1: his name is koy Son koy s Un. He is
- 24:44Speaker 1: an Asian American sign painter. I love his work, really
- 24:49Speaker 1: details stuff. He makes great content. No matter what I
- 24:54Speaker 1: type into any image generator, I won't get what he's
- 24:59Speaker 1: able to do physically ever, that type of work. Nowaday,
- 25:03Speaker 1: he had to make content and put his shit out
- 25:05Speaker 1: there to get known. In like two years, he's finna
- 25:08Speaker 1: be one of the most coveted people because everybody can
- 25:11Speaker 1: do the cheap one. Everybody can do the slop We
- 25:15Speaker 1: got to make it through the slop air for then
- 25:18Speaker 1: we I feel like we can have a craftsman renaissance almost,
- 25:22Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, I agree that it'll be a demand
- 25:25Speaker 1: for those type of people.
- 25:27Speaker 2: I agree. I agree. I I don't have the fear
- 25:30Speaker 2: of change and so much that everything has a dark
- 25:34Speaker 2: side to it and there's no way to get around that.
- 25:36Speaker 2: Specifically when it comes to technology. Yeah, I mean, the
- 25:38Speaker 2: Internet has created unbelievable opportunities for us to connect, to
- 25:42Speaker 2: create things, to make money, to sell whares like, create
- 25:48Speaker 2: and announce movements, all kinds of things, and it's also
- 25:51Speaker 2: a desperately dark place at the same time, and there's
- 25:55Speaker 2: no way to regulate that out of it, Like they
- 25:58Speaker 2: can try to shut things, but it's too far gone.
- 26:01Speaker 3: Yeah, but you take the good with the bad with.
- 26:03Speaker 1: That, and it's already so many powerful tools that are
- 26:08Speaker 1: open source. So this code, the access to this power,
- 26:12Speaker 1: even in this early stages, is already public. This is
- 26:16Speaker 1: going to snowball into something that we can't control, regardless regulations.
- 26:21Speaker 1: It's already They already didn't put the current models that
- 26:25Speaker 1: you can find on it's do You could download it
- 26:29Speaker 1: on GitHub right now, put it on yours and build
- 26:32Speaker 1: off of it.
- 26:33Speaker 3: Anybody can do that.
- 26:34Speaker 2: Yeah, it's over with. It's too late.
- 26:37Speaker 3: It's too late.
- 26:38Speaker 2: Speaking of the dark side of the Internet, do you
- 26:42Speaker 2: believe in the male loneliness epidemic?
- 26:46Speaker 1: Yeah, I do believe in the loneliness epidemic. But I
- 26:51Speaker 1: don't really feel sorry for a lot of them niggas though,
- 26:54Speaker 1: But I do believe it's a thing.
- 27:01Speaker 3: I don't know where.
- 27:03Speaker 1: I really think the influence of the weird influencers like
- 27:09Speaker 1: DJ academics Andrew Tate all, like the the people who
- 27:17Speaker 1: empowered in cels to hate women, that shit has rolled over.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Like when I was in high school, there would be
- 27:25Speaker 1: this is before it's a great shift like we used to.
- 27:28Speaker 1: Everybody remembers when niggas would bully the dark skinned kids
- 27:33Speaker 1: in high school. In middle school, niggas was calling them
- 27:36Speaker 1: African Buddhist gratchers. Now it's the whole shift, and you
- 27:41Speaker 1: watch Love Island all the top bitches on their chocolate
- 27:44Speaker 1: and pretty as hell and everybody empowering it. And then
- 27:48Speaker 1: I've even watched them on Twitter like y'all act like
- 27:50Speaker 1: blah blah blah. I'm like, wow, But then when you
- 27:55Speaker 1: talk to the when you see the dudes in the
- 27:57Speaker 1: comments from popular counts, it's all negativity. So I'm like,
- 28:03Speaker 1: what has shifted to where media is now boosting these
- 28:07Speaker 1: silhouettes but men are still tearing them down like it's
- 28:11Speaker 1: the high school shit kind of got perpetuated somehow because
- 28:16Speaker 1: of the Internet. Like I'm literally trying to wrap my
- 28:18Speaker 1: mind around this expression into you, But these.
- 28:21Speaker 3: Are major factors where I feel like we have so.
- 28:24Speaker 1: Many communities of niggas who just isolating theyselves from actually
- 28:29Speaker 1: getting some coucie and touching some grass. I really don't
- 28:34Speaker 1: understand how they felt like this was cool. I would
- 28:38Speaker 1: never I like, if Andrew Tate walked past me at Tomorrow,
- 28:44Speaker 1: I think he sailed cologne. How did people start worshiping
- 28:50Speaker 1: these weird ass, corny ass niggas like that, and they
- 28:54Speaker 1: set the standard.
- 28:56Speaker 3: That's who the kids got to grow up and watch.
- 28:59Speaker 3: And then.
- 29:01Speaker 1: It ain't like when they have black influencers like Speed
- 29:05Speaker 1: or car right, all the speed Pattners, all the katterness,
- 29:09Speaker 1: they all got hosts. You only see the two most
- 29:13Speaker 1: important dudes being the most politically correct. But we don't
- 29:18Speaker 1: even have nobody to lean on people and really start
- 29:22Speaker 1: giving advice on how to move like a gentleman.
- 29:26Speaker 3: You know. It's just like, oh, I'm the start of this.
- 29:29Speaker 3: This is a thing. Look at these spectacles like nobody.
- 29:33Speaker 1: There's no representation for just al a cool male figure.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Like who do they really got to look up to
- 29:41Speaker 1: that has the platform that we're talking about people podcasts
- 29:46Speaker 1: or popular influencers, Like who do they have other than
- 29:50Speaker 1: these dudes who only promote the smallest dick mindset I
- 29:55Speaker 1: have ever seen in my life.
- 29:58Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. Who do you have to
- 30:00Speaker 2: look up to? Because a lot of young men are
- 30:05Speaker 2: definitely struggling with connectivity and I think that you know,
- 30:10Speaker 2: I'm a bit older, so I grew up before the Internet,
- 30:15Speaker 2: and yeah, like there was bullying. There was teasing and
- 30:18Speaker 2: all that, but you everyone got it and it was
- 30:22Speaker 2: in person. And then you still went outside like you
- 30:25Speaker 2: still went and made friends. You found your own community,
- 30:28Speaker 2: but you found your own community of people, not people
- 30:31Speaker 2: on the internet who you didn't actually ever know or
- 30:33Speaker 2: see or talk to. And I think that the shift
- 30:37Speaker 2: really for those men is that, on top of feeling
- 30:43Speaker 2: like they can't get anyone, the women that they believe
- 30:47Speaker 2: they should get would never talk to them in any
- 30:50Speaker 2: version of society. They were never they were never for them.
- 30:54Speaker 2: So it's like there's this constant barrage of beautiful women
- 30:58Speaker 2: that they feel like they have access too. They're seeing
- 31:00Speaker 2: women from all over the world, and these women are
- 31:04Speaker 2: projecting this idea that they're living these amazing, lavish lives
- 31:08Speaker 2: that these men cannot or boys cannot provide, and so
- 31:13Speaker 2: they feel bad about themselves. So they try to find
- 31:15Speaker 2: a place where someone tells them that the reason they
- 31:17Speaker 2: feel bad about themselves is because of these bitches and
- 31:20Speaker 2: not because they won't go outside and touch grass.
- 31:22Speaker 1: I just figured out it's white people fault. Well, yeah,
- 31:27Speaker 1: it's white people fault. I mean, yes, black people leave
- 31:30Speaker 1: the world. Today's kids do whatever the black youth does.
- 31:33Speaker 1: The black home was already broken up generationally by white people.
- 31:38Speaker 1: It forced black women and then hyper excel in academics.
- 31:42Speaker 1: Black men have then failed because of all the systematic
- 31:45Speaker 1: things behind that. So then we have this whole separation
- 31:48Speaker 1: because we got these hyper achieving black women, super successful
- 31:53Speaker 1: black women, and then those who are not but still
- 31:56Speaker 1: be able to be that type of pretty or lid
- 31:58Speaker 1: at lifestyle combined with the Internet, and then nobody's fucking
- 32:02Speaker 1: with niggas, and then that rolls over to the rest
- 32:04Speaker 1: of the youth.
- 32:07Speaker 5: It's white people fault. I mean, I don't disagree. It
- 32:13Speaker 5: usually is. Damn it usually is.
- 32:21Speaker 2: When you think about it. Most of these in cells
- 32:24Speaker 2: are young white men, and they're broken and they're easier
- 32:29Speaker 2: to manipulate, and then the alt right finds them and
- 32:33Speaker 2: pumps through the algorithm more and more of this propaganda,
- 32:37Speaker 2: in this rhetoric that it's women having rights, it's the
- 32:41Speaker 2: crazy liberals, it's gay people, it's black women, it's black
- 32:45Speaker 2: men that look better than you and have more money
- 32:48Speaker 2: than you, and they're athletes and they talk too much
- 32:51Speaker 2: and all of that. So yeah, and then they won
- 32:52Speaker 2: the election, so you're actually right, I.
- 32:56Speaker 1: Wonder what it would be like in the world if
- 32:58Speaker 1: white people just when like a solid maybe just two weeks,
- 33:04Speaker 1: fourteen days, and didn't didn't ask about.
- 33:07Speaker 2: Nobody else mind business.
- 33:09Speaker 1: Yeah, like what what if white people took all that
- 33:12Speaker 1: business that they got and and minded it just for
- 33:19Speaker 1: two weeks, two weeks of don't think about that immigrants,
- 33:24Speaker 1: don't think about abortion, abortion, don't even think about yeah,
- 33:30Speaker 1: you know, just only think about white people business for
- 33:33Speaker 1: two weeks.
- 33:34Speaker 3: Just try it out, y'all. See how you like it.
- 33:39Speaker 3: Never know, you might want to stay there. You might
- 33:41Speaker 3: be like, man, we've been all this business. We could
- 33:44Speaker 3: have been minded this shit. It's so just try it out.
- 33:48Speaker 3: I know it might be hard.
- 33:50Speaker 1: It's a big ask to only care about yourself, but
- 33:54Speaker 1: please be a little Just try to be selfish for once.
- 33:59Speaker 1: Y'are always caring about everybody else, and you see the
- 34:01Speaker 1: rest of the world.
- 34:03Speaker 3: Hey when you care, so stop paring. Stay out of
- 34:09Speaker 3: our business.
- 34:10Speaker 2: That's not gonna happen.
- 34:12Speaker 3: I know it's not. But they are generations American dream, right,
- 34:15Speaker 3: I can only dream, you can only dream.
- 34:19Speaker 2: They're generationally nosy. Yeah, but I will say now that
- 34:24Speaker 2: the world is kind of separated off from the well,
- 34:29Speaker 2: the rest of America has figured out that the rest
- 34:32Speaker 2: of the world, even the I call them the ancestral whites,
- 34:37Speaker 2: are not trying to come here. They're not bothering with us. Yeah,
- 34:41Speaker 2: they're fine there. And the more you travel, the more
- 34:43Speaker 2: you realize there's so many places as you can live
- 34:46Speaker 2: and have wonderful lives. And the pitch for this country
- 34:51Speaker 2: is that there's nowhere else to go.
- 34:54Speaker 3: And that's kind.
- 34:56Speaker 2: Of the pain for me is trying to explain to people,
- 35:00Speaker 2: even the people that are close to me that don't
- 35:03Speaker 2: don't see the rest of the world. And I understand
- 35:04Speaker 2: it's the privilege to travel, but I think you can
- 35:07Speaker 2: just like leave your neighborhood and like see how other
- 35:10Speaker 2: people live and then appreciate the ship that you have
- 35:14Speaker 2: and what you do. And that's like, that's the fundamental
- 35:17Speaker 2: of mind in your business is understanding other people have
- 35:19Speaker 2: their business and you have your business, and yours business
- 35:22Speaker 2: is yours.
- 35:23Speaker 4: To mind, it's a lot of it too, like usually
- 35:27Speaker 4: be hell a business. White people have a lot of business,
- 35:31Speaker 4: a turn of it, most of it, I'd say, statistically,
- 35:36Speaker 4: there's a lot to mind. What is uh, what is
- 35:41Speaker 4: one solve you would have for the Internet, like if
- 35:43Speaker 4: you could, if you could change something on the Internet
- 35:48Speaker 4: like mine would be Mine would be that if you
- 35:53Speaker 4: are going to comment on social media, you have to
- 35:55Speaker 4: have your full name and address.
- 35:59Speaker 1: I was going a little similar but a little bit
- 36:02Speaker 1: more targeted. I just we need to unplug, unplug a
- 36:07Speaker 1: decent part of India from the Internet for like a
- 36:10Speaker 1: week and see what happens.
- 36:13Speaker 3: So you just want just unplugged them really everything people?
- 36:17Speaker 1: Nah, we just need to see how many accounts really
- 36:20Speaker 1: don't exist anymore?
- 36:21Speaker 2: Theot farms.
- 36:24Speaker 1: Oh we go do China after all right, let's see
- 36:28Speaker 1: who's still tweeting, who's still posting on the ground, because
- 36:32Speaker 1: we know it's not nobody from over there. All right,
- 36:36Speaker 1: plug them back in?
- 36:37Speaker 3: Okay? Who started back up? All right?
- 36:39Speaker 2: Got y'all?
- 36:40Speaker 3: Mm hmmm.
- 36:40Speaker 1: That's what I do with the Internet. I just start
- 36:43Speaker 1: to cut niggas water off, like hold on the fuck
- 36:47Speaker 1: y'all doing?
- 36:48Speaker 2: All right?
- 36:49Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 36:49Speaker 2: So many bots, there's so much fake ship.
- 36:52Speaker 1: Yes, it's so like we really fin enter the era
- 36:55Speaker 1: of slot. I can go. I could use Google vieo,
- 37:00Speaker 1: hey lou o, any video generator right now for free
- 37:04Speaker 1: for most of the day and make you eat chips
- 37:08Speaker 1: you ain't. The flavors aren't even real. Got you pulling
- 37:12Speaker 1: out of mysterious Dorito bags right now, craziest Doritos you've
- 37:16Speaker 1: ever seen. I make you pull a Kiden out of
- 37:18Speaker 1: Dorito bag? Joy, How you put it? How you get
- 37:20Speaker 1: it in there?
- 37:21Speaker 3: You didn't?
- 37:25Speaker 2: The air of slop is so real though.
- 37:28Speaker 1: It's crazy. And you know what's so crazy about the
- 37:30Speaker 1: AI video shit too. I just said this yesterday with
- 37:33Speaker 1: my brother. People got the chance to do anything, Like
- 37:37Speaker 1: I said, you can make anything. And the first shit
- 37:40Speaker 1: that started going viral is people from different races making
- 37:44Speaker 1: racist videos about people from other races.
- 37:47Speaker 3: That's all we see is like.
- 37:48Speaker 1: I'm Shana Cuisha Cravrion Christ and these are my twelve
- 37:53Speaker 1: Nigga disciples, just like pure racist things.
- 37:56Speaker 3: It's like Indian woes, Chinese woes.
- 37:59Speaker 1: That's what people did the first time they got their
- 38:01Speaker 1: hands off some power.
- 38:03Speaker 3: That's what the fuck society is on right now.
- 38:07Speaker 2: You know, I was saying it on the way over here.
- 38:10Speaker 2: I just think like, wow, how how strange it is?
- 38:16Speaker 2: Like when you really think about racism, particularly in this country,
- 38:21Speaker 2: like how weird it is that you wake up and
- 38:25Speaker 2: you think that you are literally superior to another person
- 38:31Speaker 2: because of your race and where you were born.
- 38:36Speaker 3: That is so crazy to me.
- 38:39Speaker 2: I think I'm superior because I actually am, because I
- 38:44Speaker 2: have worked my entire life to be superior, not because
- 38:48Speaker 2: I rolled out of bed in a certain state with
- 38:52Speaker 2: white skin. Like what who even came up with this concept?
- 38:58Speaker 2: Like and your white knuckle to it so hard that
- 39:01Speaker 2: you're willing to destroy an entire empire? It is so
- 39:07Speaker 2: funneling to me and asking someone to explain why you
- 39:12Speaker 2: white person, white male, you are you are fundamentally better
- 39:18Speaker 2: than the next person who is not you?
- 39:21Speaker 3: Why you know?
- 39:23Speaker 1: I think right now it may have shifted before. It
- 39:27Speaker 1: may have been an insecurity and a grab for power,
- 39:31Speaker 1: but now it's they need to survive for sure, because
- 39:35Speaker 1: they're leaving them a right, So it's about seems like
- 39:41Speaker 1: survival to me. You know, you ever get some turtles
- 39:46Speaker 1: from Santilli as a kid, You know how they used
- 39:48Speaker 1: to sell turtles in the little thing you get it
- 39:50Speaker 1: for like twenty.
- 39:51Speaker 3: Them for like thirty dollars, Right, it was crazy that
- 39:53Speaker 3: by the.
- 39:53Speaker 1: Time you go home with the turtles, like four of
- 39:56Speaker 1: them left yep, and then the turtles started acting frantic.
- 39:59Speaker 1: Now I hate the other turtles somehow, and you ain't
- 40:02Speaker 1: never even seen turtles fight up until then. That's white
- 40:05Speaker 1: people right now.
- 40:10Speaker 2: Yeah, Now, if you didn't have that turtle experience.
- 40:12Speaker 3: It's gonna be a tough It's gonna be real tough.
- 40:14Speaker 2: That's anology for you. But you had to have done
- 40:17Speaker 2: the turtle thing.
- 40:18Speaker 1: Yeah, that is I'm against that now. That was animal cruelty.
- 40:22Speaker 1: But we of course didn't know that.
- 40:23Speaker 2: We did not We didn't know everything.
- 40:25Speaker 3: Ten year old kids.
- 40:29Speaker 2: How do you think all this, uh this, what is it?
- 40:32Speaker 2: The era of slop that what we're calling it. How
- 40:34Speaker 2: do you think that affects music?
- 40:39Speaker 3: You know, it's harder to get.
- 40:44Speaker 2: It.
- 40:44Speaker 1: Don't affect real music because real musicians, if they ever
- 40:47Speaker 1: did use a you really wouldn't know.
- 40:50Speaker 2: But not even a I just like the copying, just
- 40:56Speaker 2: the kind of vanilla, the lack of creativity, the sound.
- 41:02Speaker 2: You know, every era has a sound to it, but
- 41:06Speaker 2: you know, the static of it.
- 41:09Speaker 1: Yeah, I think music is already leaning more towards that,
- 41:14Speaker 1: back to the art, back to the craftsman, back to
- 41:17Speaker 1: the original talent display more so than it is the
- 41:22Speaker 1: step and repeat, copy and paste type thing that's been
- 41:26Speaker 1: going on for a while. I think all of that
- 41:28Speaker 1: is done. I can't give to you the honest next
- 41:33Speaker 1: steps because I don't know, but I know the music
- 41:38Speaker 1: that I see people making is absolutely of the highest
- 41:41Speaker 1: caliber right now versus what they may have even been
- 41:44Speaker 1: trying to make last year or the year before that.
- 41:48Speaker 1: The attention back to creativity and instrumentation has shifted musicality
- 41:54Speaker 1: in general. People are trying to pay attention to the details,
- 41:58Speaker 1: and there's an obvious want for it. Especially after the
- 42:01Speaker 1: Kendrick thing. You could see it right now happen in
- 42:04Speaker 1: Live with the clips and their rollout. People are begging
- 42:09Speaker 1: for a lot more substance. So I'm excited about that.
- 42:13Speaker 3: That's good.
- 42:14Speaker 2: I'm glad to hear that. I think Kendrick that was
- 42:17Speaker 2: a big moment for that you're seeing it. I think
- 42:19Speaker 2: in movies as well, sinners like a more original concepts,
- 42:24Speaker 2: more going back to, like you said, musicality, instruments live,
- 42:31Speaker 2: the feeling of spontaneity, the jazz of it all, if
- 42:37Speaker 2: you will. I think that's important because, especially with everything
- 42:40Speaker 2: that's happening right now, art always preserves history. In a
- 42:44Speaker 2: very specific way that you know, they're trying to erase
- 42:48Speaker 2: history in a lot of different spaces. Of course, the
- 42:51Speaker 2: Internet exists, so I don't know why they're even trying this,
- 42:54Speaker 2: but good luck, I guess I don't know, Like do
- 42:58Speaker 2: you control in nor Way? Is internet like what bigg
- 43:02Speaker 2: we just send the books there. It's it is weird.
- 43:07Speaker 2: I think it's it's weird that they're getting they're trying
- 43:10Speaker 2: to erase history when like it's one hundred percent preserved
- 43:13Speaker 2: on the Internet. But that aside, art through every era has,
- 43:17Speaker 2: whether it's through music, movies, paintings, writings, preserves the energy
- 43:23Speaker 2: and the feeling of the era. And what's what kind
- 43:26Speaker 2: of scares me about art right now, which is why
- 43:27Speaker 2: I'm glad to hear that and I'm glad to see
- 43:29Speaker 2: things that are like truly creative, is because this is
- 43:33Speaker 2: a time the era of slop, where things are super
- 43:36Speaker 2: watered down. There's bots, there's ai, everything is filter, everything
- 43:41Speaker 2: is like is this real? You got to make sure
- 43:43Speaker 2: that your mom knows that the lizard crawling on the
- 43:46Speaker 2: you know, Eiffel Tower is not happening.
- 43:48Speaker 1: I'm like that baby in Puerto Rico did not see
- 43:51Speaker 1: an a wing, the angel Grandma, that's not real. That's
- 43:56Speaker 1: not real. The baby got eight fingers, it's not really.
- 44:01Speaker 2: AI has got to work on their hands.
- 44:03Speaker 1: No, I mean it's there's some fixes. Now, there are
- 44:06Speaker 1: some fixes. It's catching up. It's catching guys.
- 44:08Speaker 2: It's good the original AI answer.
- 44:11Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it's it's getting scary.
- 44:13Speaker 2: Yeah. Well yeah, so the art thing to me is important,
- 44:16Speaker 2: like as an artist, I think it will be important
- 44:19Speaker 2: years from now. How we how we captured this time?
- 44:24Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, I'm excited for it, though I can't
- 44:30Speaker 1: help but be optimistic. I'm excited for the government to collapse.
- 44:35Speaker 1: I'm excited for art to be in the renaissance. These
- 44:38Speaker 1: are my dreams.
- 44:41Speaker 2: They're solid dreams, squab there and they're gonna happen, hope.
- 44:46Speaker 3: So a little.
- 44:47Speaker 2: Bit as I'm really excited for this movie him produced
- 44:52Speaker 2: by Jordan Peele. It comes out September nineteenth. Yeah, you're
- 44:57Speaker 2: dropping new music around the movie.
- 45:00Speaker 3: I know you can't talk about the movie too much.
- 45:02Speaker 2: Yeah, but just you know, snowballing off of what we
- 45:07Speaker 2: were talking about because it looks super creative and interesting.
- 45:12Speaker 2: To me, is that the vibe we're gonna get from
- 45:14Speaker 2: the movie.
- 45:14Speaker 3: Absolutely absolutely.
- 45:16Speaker 1: It's directed by my boy, Justin Tipping, and he's also
- 45:21Speaker 1: Brenda Bay and Filipino Mutt like your boy, so it's
- 45:26Speaker 1: cool to be working with him.
- 45:29Speaker 3: Why they were shooting all all.
- 45:30Speaker 1: Of this art type stuff because just all the references
- 45:33Speaker 1: were paintings and Renaissance and that era of art, you know,
- 45:39Speaker 1: real oil painting as situations.
- 45:43Speaker 3: So it's going to be a beautiful film.
- 45:45Speaker 1: I play a football player and I'm super close with
- 45:49Speaker 1: the main character.
- 45:50Speaker 2: I can't wait for it.
- 45:51Speaker 1: Yeah, we reunite and we we do some shenanigans.
- 45:55Speaker 2: Okay, I don't want to make you say anymore.
- 45:57Speaker 1: But I got music on the soundtrack and also in
- 46:02Speaker 1: the movie.
- 46:03Speaker 2: Amazing.
- 46:04Speaker 1: Yeah. I got to work with the composer, this guy
- 46:07Speaker 1: named Bobby, and it was super dyke. I got to
- 46:11Speaker 1: flip some of the stems from the score and work
- 46:14Speaker 1: on that.
- 46:15Speaker 2: Was that your first time working on the score.
- 46:17Speaker 1: Absolutely, and hopefully it won't be my last, because that
- 46:21Speaker 1: was probably the dopest thing, just to just sort through
- 46:24Speaker 1: the strengths and the arrangement. I was like I could
- 46:27Speaker 1: hear everything. I felt so in control, but it was tight.
- 46:31Speaker 1: I had to be super secretive though, Like even my roommates,
- 46:34Speaker 1: I didn't let them come in the stew. I was
- 46:36Speaker 1: in there chopping it up by myself.
- 46:38Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean it's a it's a big movie,
- 46:40Speaker 2: and congratulations. That's really thank you. That's an incredible accomplishment
- 46:45Speaker 2: to do and a lot of responsibility.
- 46:47Speaker 3: Yeah, but it was fun.
- 46:51Speaker 1: Like I said earlier, I'm the most creative when I
- 46:55Speaker 1: just feel the most free.
- 46:57Speaker 3: I was. I could do whatever I want.
- 46:58Speaker 1: I could send them in anything that I made, anything
- 47:02Speaker 1: and would work around it if they felt like it
- 47:04Speaker 1: was tight enough. And I feel like I'm naturally tight enough.
- 47:08Speaker 1: So I just I sent them so many ideas and they.
- 47:11Speaker 3: Actually picked shit.
- 47:12Speaker 1: I was like, yes, it's just going great.
- 47:16Speaker 2: Well I love that. So we're gonna check out him
- 47:19Speaker 2: produced by Jordan Peele, that comes out September nineteenth, and
- 47:23Speaker 2: your new music coming out around the movie.
- 47:25Speaker 3: The White do Rag Party is on.

- 47:37Speaker 1: I'm super excited for that. I've been planning that shit
- 47:40Speaker 1: on the phone all day. I made a coloring book
- 47:42Speaker 1: for it. We're doing a coloring hour in the morning
- 47:45Speaker 1: for kids, then yoga but the single mothers. My little
- 47:49Speaker 1: brother always liked to do stuff for single moms on

- 47:55Speaker 1: and then I made a coloring book.
- 47:57Speaker 3: We're gonna color with the kids.
- 47:59Speaker 1: I got horse back riding and lessons with the Black
- 48:02Speaker 1: Cowboys coming down, car show throughout the whole parking lot,
- 48:06Speaker 1: and a big stage. I can't say keep the sneakiest performing,
- 48:10Speaker 1: but we got like a whole band situation that I'm
- 48:14Speaker 1: putting together that I don't want to spoil. And a
- 48:16Speaker 1: lot of talent pretty much everybody from the Bay whoever
- 48:22Speaker 1: was in entertainment. I'm trying to pull the pull up
- 48:26Speaker 1: at this sting.
- 48:27Speaker 2: That's so. That's August second, heiphi Berger in Oakland.
- 48:33Speaker 3: This was great.
- 48:34Speaker 2: Make sure that you follow gap Quap dropped one of
- 48:37Speaker 2: the greatest reels in the history of the Internet. In
- 48:39Speaker 2: my opinion about hawk Tua. Yep, it's one of it's
- 48:44Speaker 2: one of your favorite takes that that that you've ever had.
- 48:48Speaker 1: Still to this day, I've never seen nan Hock or
- 48:52Speaker 1: neither a tour, so I'm still curious on what. And
- 48:56Speaker 1: then I heard she ended up scamming people with a
- 48:58Speaker 1: meme coin.
- 49:00Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean it had to your point, I
- 49:03Speaker 2: think it was a scam from the beginning because where's
- 49:06Speaker 2: the hawktooing on.
- 49:07Speaker 1: The It's almost like they should have believed me when
- 49:10Speaker 1: they let the video go viral. But y'all still supported
- 49:13Speaker 1: or you horny motherfuckers.
- 49:17Speaker 3: Thank you, appreciate you, sababy it, thank you for having me.
- 49:21Speaker 2: Thanks to blop Dad for sabam. Bye. Two Personal, It's
- 49:24Speaker 2: time for Never Too Personal. You can email at two
- 49:26Speaker 2: Personal Podcasts at gmail dot com or dms at two
- 49:30Speaker 2: Personal Show. And this question, is any advice for someone
- 49:35Speaker 2: who is afraid to come out? So I would say
- 49:40Speaker 2: the first thing would be to spend some time online researching.
- 49:46Speaker 2: I'm sure there's plenty of material online to help you
- 49:50Speaker 2: form a conversation, to help emotionally and mentally prepare yourself
- 49:54Speaker 2: for it. If you do have a therapist, definitely talk
- 49:56Speaker 2: to your therapist about it first and make sure that
- 49:59Speaker 2: you you know, have a plan for how you want
- 50:02Speaker 2: to do it. If you have anxiety about coming out.
- 50:06Speaker 2: I've had multiple friends come out to me over the years,
- 50:10Speaker 2: and each was a very different situation, but I know
- 50:15Speaker 2: it was an extremely emotional experience for them and was
- 50:18Speaker 2: something that they were very afraid to do, which is
- 50:20Speaker 2: very heartbreaking for me because obviously I completely accept them
- 50:24Speaker 2: in many cases new So outside of you know, making
- 50:28Speaker 2: sure that you do some research to help manage your
- 50:30Speaker 2: anxiety and ask the people that you feel safe with
- 50:34Speaker 2: about if they did it. If you have friends that
- 50:36Speaker 2: are in the community or you know, family members, but
- 50:40Speaker 2: the person that you want to come out to, make
- 50:43Speaker 2: sure that you know a safe space for the two
- 50:47Speaker 2: of you to talk. I wouldn't introduce alcohol or you know,
- 50:51Speaker 2: any kind of drugs. It would should be someplace where
- 50:55Speaker 2: you feel comfortable, where they feel comfortable, so that you're
- 50:57Speaker 2: able to have an honest conversation with them and it
- 51:01Speaker 2: be a safe space for you to talk. It can
- 51:04Speaker 2: be a very emotional experience and you know, having to
- 51:08Speaker 2: have really hard conversations, you can build up the anxiety
- 51:11Speaker 2: about how someone's going to react and they may not
- 51:14Speaker 2: react in that way at all. So if you have
- 51:16Speaker 2: a support system, if you're lucky enough to have a
- 51:18Speaker 2: support system, definitely lean on them. Definitely, you know, read
- 51:22Speaker 2: some stories online and watch some videos people who have
- 51:26Speaker 2: come out themselves, and if you have a therapist, talk
- 51:29Speaker 2: with them as well. And there's lots of resources online
- 51:32Speaker 2: for people to have conversations with you before you do it,
- 51:35Speaker 2: but just remember that you're valued and you are loved,
- 51:39Speaker 2: and you're important and you deserve to live in your truth.
