- 0:40Speaker 2: He calls himself the cultural referee. Well, if you're gonna
- 0:44Speaker 2: call yourself a cultural referee, then you have to call
- 0:47Speaker 2: things correctly. And yesterday Ray Daniels got it really wrong.

- 0:53Speaker 2: Believe It's called and he said definitively okay, without a
- 0:57Speaker 2: shotover doubt that jay Z had a new album coming out.
- 1:00Speaker 3: Let's listen, you gotta guard your reputation at all cost.
- 1:04Speaker 3: We have to learn from Hove. Hove is not going
- 1:06Speaker 3: to put himself out there to be laughed at. It's
- 1:08Speaker 3: just I'm not doing sixty thousand y'all. By the way,
- 1:10Speaker 3: tell you something that I know I heard about on
- 1:12Speaker 3: the jay Z tip A little quick update is album
- 1:14Speaker 3: is done. Okay, it's completely done. It's just we might

- 1:21Speaker 3: with him, it's not coming. He not playing about it.
- 1:24Speaker 1: You cannot say you said this like a month ago.
- 1:27Speaker 3: Yeah, somebody called and confirmed it from me, so I
- 1:29Speaker 3: was like, okay, I just want to reveal it on
- 1:31Speaker 3: the team. You heard it here first here, first, let's go.
- 1:34Speaker 2: Well, you need to block that somebody Ray Okay, because
- 1:36Speaker 2: rock Nation, who I work for, allegedly replied to that
- 1:40Speaker 2: commentary by posting in their story album done in air
- 1:44Speaker 2: quotes fake news.
- 1:45Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:46Speaker 2: There's a part of me that wishes rock Nation didn't
- 1:48Speaker 2: even do that because in a lot of ways, things
- 1:50Speaker 2: like that are validation for the Ray Daniels of the world.
- 1:53Speaker 2: And that's really why I'm doing this Donkey this morning. See,
- 1:57Speaker 2: nobody cares about having a voice that has actual value.
- 2:01Speaker 2: People only care about going viral by any means.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Okay.
- 2:05Speaker 2: I know Ray is loving this attention. Okay, this is
- 2:09Speaker 2: what these guys do this for. They don't care about
- 2:11Speaker 2: being right, they don't care about having credibility. They just
- 2:14Speaker 2: care about attention. They just care about being acknowledged. But
- 2:18Speaker 2: I'm here to tell you that's not sustainable.
- 2:20Speaker 1: Okay.
- 2:20Speaker 2: You know, Ray told me once himself only met Ray
- 2:24Speaker 2: once in my life. I think I talked to him
- 2:25Speaker 2: twice once on the phone, and I met him because
- 2:27Speaker 2: he was at the Black Effect Podcast Festival earlier this
- 2:29Speaker 2: year in Atlanta, and he said to me that he
- 2:32Speaker 2: only started podcasting and he only says the things that
- 2:35Speaker 2: he says because he wants another job in the music industry.
- 2:39Speaker 2: I don't even know what that means, okay, because I
- 2:41Speaker 2: thought he was in the music industry already. But he
- 2:43Speaker 2: said to me, saying the things he says gets him
- 2:45Speaker 2: attention from these music industry folks.
- 2:48Speaker 1: I guess he's trying to work with. Well.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Ray, when you get things so wrong consistently, all you
- 2:54Speaker 2: do is show people exactly why you don't have a
- 2:57Speaker 2: job in the music industry.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Okay, you call yourself for a cultural referee.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Well, when a sports referee consistently makes incorrect calls, Major
- 3:06Speaker 2: professional leagues and amateur organizations use internal gradings to hold
- 3:10Speaker 2: them accountable, and poor grades directly lower and officials ranking
- 3:15Speaker 2: within their league.
- 3:16Speaker 1: Oh, your ranking's pretty low right now, Ray?
- 3:19Speaker 2: Okay, Look, I don't know what your grade is amongst
- 3:21Speaker 2: people who don't know any better.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Okay.
- 3:23Speaker 2: The regular everyday person who gets on YouTube and listens
- 3:26Speaker 2: to you might swear by you because they don't know
- 3:28Speaker 2: any better.
- 3:28Speaker 1: But to someone like me.
- 3:30Speaker 2: You get an effort your worst, a C plus at
- 3:33Speaker 2: your best, actually a C minus, a C minus at
- 3:35Speaker 2: your best. Okay, Because majority of the time I listen
- 3:38Speaker 2: to you, I think to myself, is there anyone on
- 3:40Speaker 2: planet Earth who knows less about what's going on in
- 3:43Speaker 2: the music and podcasting business than Ray Daniels? Just my opinion, Ray, Okay,
- 3:47Speaker 2: And I know you think I work for rock Nation. Okay,
- 3:49Speaker 2: I've heard your commentary on it, So you're gonna try
- 3:51Speaker 2: to say rock Nation paid me to say this, but
- 3:53Speaker 2: this is just all my opinion.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Okay, here's a pro tip, all right.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Instead of saying, matter of factly, Jay z out is done,
- 4:00Speaker 2: how about say someone told you, or you don't know
- 4:03Speaker 2: if this is true or not, but this is.
- 4:05Speaker 1: What you heard. Okay.
- 4:06Speaker 2: If you carry it like that, then it really doesn't
- 4:09Speaker 2: damage your reputation or credibility in this space. But when
- 4:12Speaker 2: you say it the way you said it, as if
- 4:15Speaker 2: you in the studio sitting next to Guru, okay, while
- 4:18Speaker 2: the track list is being arranged, as if you're in
- 4:20Speaker 2: the marketing meetings listening to what the rollout plan is.
- 4:23Speaker 2: Ok If you say it like that, if you say
- 4:25Speaker 2: it like you one hundred percent know what you're saying
- 4:28Speaker 2: is the truth, that's.
- 4:29Speaker 1: When you lose credibility. Okay.
- 4:31Speaker 2: You lose credibility as a media personality by breaking the
- 4:34Speaker 2: trust your audience places and your accuracy, independence and integrity.
- 4:39Speaker 1: That's what y'all try to do to me when you
- 4:41Speaker 1: say I work for Rock Nation.
- 4:42Speaker 2: Okay, you want the audience to not trust my independence
- 4:44Speaker 2: and integrity, But what about your integrity? Ray Daniels, For
- 4:48Speaker 2: what shall it profit a man if he shall gain
- 4:50Speaker 2: a few clicks, go viral a little bit, and lose
- 4:53Speaker 2: his own soul?
- 4:54Speaker 1: Okay?
- 4:54Speaker 2: I know we in an era where people think all
- 4:56Speaker 2: publicity is good publicity, but it's not, ok because negative
- 5:00Speaker 2: attention can destroy consumer trust. All right, Ray, this might
- 5:04Speaker 2: be some people's first time hearing about you, and now
- 5:07Speaker 2: they know you as the guy who's loud and wrong.
- 5:10Speaker 2: That can cause damage to your brand, our reputation, and
- 5:13Speaker 2: that can take years to fix.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Okay.
- 5:15Speaker 2: So if you're really the cultural or referee, you won't
- 5:17Speaker 2: get mad at any of this.
- 5:19Speaker 1: You won't make excuses for any of this.
- 5:20Speaker 2: You will simply get on your platform and tell everybody
- 5:23Speaker 2: you got it wrong.
- 5:25Speaker 1: Okay.
- 5:25Speaker 2: Integrity is making sure that the things you say and
- 5:28Speaker 2: the things.
- 5:29Speaker 1: You do are in alignment. Okay.
- 5:31Speaker 2: Integrity is telling the truth and fixing mistakes. Let's see
- 5:35Speaker 2: how you call this on yourself, mister cultural referee.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Please let me me Ma give Ray Daniels the biggest
- 5:41Speaker 1: he huh hee ha he ha.
- 5:44Speaker 3: You stupid mother?
- 5:45Speaker 1: Are you dumb? All right? Yes, ma'am. Question, do we
- 5:49Speaker 1: know what Ray did in the music industry? I have
- 5:52Speaker 1: no idea. I'm just kidding.
- 5:55Speaker 2: I know what Wikipedia said. It says he's a music executive,
- 5:57Speaker 2: record producer, and talent manager.
- 6:00Speaker 1: Have no idea. I'm just I didn't know him until
- 6:03Speaker 1: he started doing the podcast thing on the podcast in Space.
- 6:06Speaker 2: But he told me at the Black Effect Podcast Festival
- 6:09Speaker 2: that he only says these things because he's trying to
- 6:12Speaker 2: get another job in the music industry.
- 6:14Speaker 1: I don't know what that means, because I don't know
- 6:16Speaker 1: what his job was.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Oh so he's just saying things just because he's just
- 6:19Speaker 2: trying to get an attention, trying to get attention. That's
- 6:21Speaker 2: what he told me. That's what he took. That's what
- 6:23Speaker 2: I took from what he said to me. His exact
- 6:25Speaker 2: words was, he only says the things that he says
- 6:27Speaker 2: because he's trying to get another job in the music industry.
- 6:31Speaker 2: That's his way of garnering attention from those music industry.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Folks, is hope to go viral. Hopeful.
- 6:37Speaker 2: That's what I take. That's what I take from. That's
- 6:40Speaker 2: my that's my personal opinion. But once again, as I said, Ray,
