- 1:42Speaker 6: What the planet?

- 1:52Speaker 4: Oh wow, damn. Now you had to wear like the
- 1:56Speaker 4: whole ship. Yeah, damn, I know you ain't like that ship.
- 2:01Speaker 1: That showed like jail when you knew when to quit.
- 2:04Speaker 1: I went to jail, y'all. You went to jail.
- 2:06Speaker 4: Why did you go to jail?
- 2:07Speaker 5: Sir? Attempted murder?
- 2:09Speaker 4: God damn?
- 2:11Speaker 5: Yeah, but I ain't know. I had a warrant out.
- 2:14Speaker 5: So when they found that out, they said I was
- 2:16Speaker 5: a risk to sear.
- 2:17Speaker 1: They fined me also that they had to let you
- 2:19Speaker 1: go and.
- 2:20Speaker 5: Mounded out and then I went back to jail in
- 2:23Speaker 5: like two weeks and I did two and a half years.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Oh you did twenty half years.
- 2:27Speaker 4: What was the reason for the attempted murder?
- 2:32Speaker 6: Uh?
- 2:33Speaker 5: So it had a rapper in Bendon Rudge. I was
- 2:36Speaker 5: into it with because he got into my brother, my
- 2:39Speaker 5: cousin whatever. So we ended up having a fight. And
- 2:42Speaker 5: while we had to fight, his daddy snucked me and
- 2:45Speaker 5: it just went' from theough.
- 2:47Speaker 1: So it was initially self defense.
- 2:49Speaker 4: Yeah, got you?
- 2:51Speaker 6: So you did your two and a half years right,
- 2:54Speaker 6: and when you came out, what happened?
- 2:56Speaker 5: I had Well, I was home for two weeks. I
- 2:58Speaker 5: ain't letting nobody know. I recall some songs. I did
- 3:01Speaker 5: like two videos and when I let everybody know, I
- 3:03Speaker 5: dropped the video the same day.
- 3:04Speaker 4: Okay, that's how you let them know that you taking
- 3:06Speaker 4: rap serious because this was something that you were still
- 3:09Speaker 4: playing around with.
- 3:09Speaker 7: Correct question that did the Uh did the situation with
- 3:14Speaker 7: the self defense? Do you think that helped your career
- 3:18Speaker 7: once you got out?
- 3:19Speaker 5: Yeah? Because once it happened, out had hit XX magazine
- 3:23Speaker 5: and all type of stuff and labels was reaching out.
- 3:26Speaker 5: I was in jail, So.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Yeah, why do you Why do you think that helps artists?
- 3:30Speaker 7: I feel like once when the artists have like a
- 3:34Speaker 7: situation that you experienced.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Why do you think that actually helps with the.
- 3:38Speaker 5: Music, because it's only two reasons that you listen to somebody.
- 3:41Speaker 5: Either their music sound good or they're entertaining. So I
- 3:47Speaker 5: feel like they following the entertainment part, and some of
- 3:49Speaker 5: the people don't. They really don't be having going on
- 3:52Speaker 5: what they be rapping about. So people are intrigued to
- 3:55Speaker 5: see that because they you know, some just like some
- 3:58Speaker 5: little nerd like not saying nerveous, somebody who don't come
- 4:01Speaker 5: from that background.
- 4:02Speaker 1: Somebody just on the internet.
- 4:03Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't come from that background. So they don't.
- 4:05Speaker 5: They only see the ship on the news, you know
- 4:07Speaker 5: what I'm saying. Something to see somebody who actually go
- 4:09Speaker 5: through it, they're like, oh, let me follow them on
- 4:10Speaker 5: what they get going on.
- 4:12Speaker 6: So while you were in prison, it was prison, right
- 4:16Speaker 6: if they said somebody put a hit on you or
- 4:18Speaker 6: you was on blasts and oh yeah, somebody had to.
- 4:21Speaker 5: Hit on you. Oh no, no, it wasn't. It wasn't.
- 4:24Speaker 5: It got different kind of hits. It wasn't tried to
- 4:26Speaker 5: kill me hit okay, it was more so beat the
- 4:28Speaker 5: shit out of me. Oh okay, yeah, Because once you
- 4:32Speaker 5: get like if you get fucked up, real, real, real bad.
- 4:34Speaker 5: You'll go to the infirman and.
- 4:35Speaker 7: Ship so they want to violate you essentially basically yeah.
- 4:38Speaker 4: Yeah, as this is going on, mentally, how are you doing?
- 4:42Speaker 4: Because this is this is a lot, my brother, like
- 4:45Speaker 4: a tentpher murder.
- 4:46Speaker 5: You're doing.
- 4:46Speaker 4: You're in jail and then you come out and you rapping,
- 4:48Speaker 4: But you know, how where are you mentally when this
- 4:53Speaker 4: is happening to you? How are you feeling?
- 4:55Speaker 2: Oh?
- 4:55Speaker 4: Are you stressed out? Or are you happy? Are you paranoid?
- 5:00Speaker 1: I don't think anybody in jail, No, I mean when
- 5:03Speaker 1: you get out and you.
- 5:04Speaker 5: Start man, uh, paranoid confused because a lot of people
- 5:08Speaker 5: who if I was in jail, everybody was cool. So
- 5:11Speaker 5: it's like you don't know who your friends is. You
- 5:13Speaker 5: don't know who to who who cooled enough to pull
- 5:17Speaker 5: up on you and stuff like that. And it's just
- 5:19Speaker 5: like one my own decision that they could all be
- 5:22Speaker 5: old with, you know what I'm saying. So then on
- 5:25Speaker 5: top of that, was on fire year parole.
- 5:27Speaker 6: MM while you was on parole, there is a famous
- 5:32Speaker 6: beef happening in Bataruge two with you and NBA young Boy.
- 5:36Speaker 5: And anytime I drop music or he dropped music, our
- 5:39Speaker 5: fans will go to each other page.
- 5:41Speaker 6: So how did that beef start with y'all?
- 5:43Speaker 5: I mean, it wasn't no beef. It was more so
- 5:45Speaker 5: Internet trying to connect dots between us and stuff like that.
- 5:48Speaker 6: So y'all cool.
- 5:50Speaker 5: I ain't got no problem with them.
- 5:52Speaker 1: So it's when does the beef stop?
- 5:54Speaker 2: Like?
- 5:54Speaker 7: When does it? When does it stop? I know, you
- 5:57Speaker 7: see all the things that are going on on the Internet,
- 6:00Speaker 7: and you see a lot of the rap beef actually
- 6:02Speaker 7: going into street beef. Do you ever feel like, like, man,
- 6:05Speaker 7: this has to stop.
- 6:08Speaker 5: I can't speaking of other people's situations, but as far
- 6:11Speaker 5: as mine, they wouldn't really never know beef. But on
- 6:14Speaker 5: our end, I just motherfucker just ain't feel the need
- 6:18Speaker 5: to be explaining like, hey, you know what I'm saying,
- 6:21Speaker 5: because it's just get annoying sometimes.
- 6:23Speaker 1: Yeah, And I know you hate talking about it.
- 6:25Speaker 7: And you also stated that you didn't like the fact
- 6:28Speaker 7: that people bring up him in during your interviews because
- 6:32Speaker 7: people interview him and don't bring you up. If I
- 6:34Speaker 7: had the opportunity, I would definitely I would. I would
- 6:37Speaker 7: have brought you up.
- 6:39Speaker 5: Like for the people who do get the interview him,
- 6:41Speaker 5: I just feel like it'd be like fucked up what you.
- 6:45Speaker 1: Mean by that?
- 6:46Speaker 5: Because so, for one, he don't he don't do interviews
- 6:50Speaker 5: like that, right, So now don't be trying to mess
- 6:52Speaker 5: up the chance of the interview coming out and stuff
- 6:54Speaker 5: like that. Get the numbers, Well, here I go. I'm
- 6:57Speaker 5: an open book, so Brocos already take advantage of that.
- 7:00Speaker 5: I'm gonna answer the question regardless you feel me. And
- 7:03Speaker 5: so once you go on the internet, you're gonna look
- 7:05Speaker 5: at my name or something. It's gonna pop up for
- 7:07Speaker 5: a little band n b A you feel me. So
- 7:10Speaker 5: it looks like I'm always talking about him, but like
- 7:12Speaker 5: you cloud chase it answer question.
- 7:15Speaker 7: Did y'all have y'all ever had a conversation about like, man,
- 7:18Speaker 7: this is stupid, like you know, like it's not even real.
- 7:22Speaker 5: You know, we had a conversation about just finally telling
- 7:26Speaker 5: the people that it wasn't no beef or nothing. But
- 7:29Speaker 5: like some shit just don't need to be explained, just
- 7:31Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, But.
- 7:32Speaker 1: Why you don't tell people that? Like why why can
- 7:35Speaker 1: people I'm saying.
- 7:36Speaker 5: If you go to every interview I did to ask
- 7:38Speaker 5: me about I tell.
- 7:39Speaker 7: But you know, a lot of times artists do get
- 7:41Speaker 7: in interviews and they said, it's no beef with a
- 7:44Speaker 7: certain artist, but it's still beef.
- 7:46Speaker 1: That's why I think continues to.
- 7:48Speaker 5: Occur interview I did, I don't have no problem with them, And.
- 7:51Speaker 1: You also you really feel.
- 7:54Speaker 6: It seems like you don't care.
- 7:59Speaker 1: Your label.
- 8:00Speaker 6: So you had issues with your label. Wouldn't allow you
- 8:02Speaker 6: to drop for like fourteen months?
- 8:04Speaker 5: Well it wouldn't. They wouldn't allowed me. How stuff was
- 8:07Speaker 5: falling like, So my last project was the end of
- 8:09Speaker 5: my second album period. Once that period ends, you had
- 8:12Speaker 5: to open up the next album period. The next album
- 8:16Speaker 5: period couldn't get open because my other label, me was
- 8:19Speaker 5: at odds and they my major, can't make any moves
- 8:22Speaker 5: without them. So me and them had to get on
- 8:25Speaker 5: the same page in order for them to open up
- 8:27Speaker 5: my budget to drop music or I was gonna have
- 8:29Speaker 5: to drop it and get in trouble because I'm violate
- 8:31Speaker 5: my contract.
- 8:33Speaker 6: How did you get through that with your your first label?
- 8:38Speaker 5: Just a long fourteen months or thirteen months of talking
- 8:42Speaker 5: and trying to get through it. Lawyer the lawyer.
- 8:46Speaker 7: Yeah, it seemed like a lot of ego plays a
- 8:49Speaker 7: lot of part in you know, being an artist and
- 8:51Speaker 7: want to continue dropping music, and you know, the person
- 8:54Speaker 7: that you signed to before you signed with the major label,
- 8:57Speaker 7: it's kind of hindering you from doing that.
- 8:59Speaker 5: I mean, I'm not I wouldn't completely mad at them,
- 9:03Speaker 5: because they were going through a separate situation with this
- 9:06Speaker 5: legally and on some leader ship going on, like it's
- 9:10Speaker 5: only so much you can do. But well, I was
- 9:12Speaker 5: asking from them, was regardless of anything, try to help
- 9:15Speaker 5: me out, because y'all know what I do for y'all.
- 9:17Speaker 5: You feel me. So that was my biggest thing, like
- 9:20Speaker 5: don't hold me back.
- 9:21Speaker 1: You know you're pretty much saying like y'all go handle
- 9:23Speaker 1: with y'all go.
- 9:24Speaker 5: They wasn't really intentionally holding me back. It was only
- 9:27Speaker 5: so much they could do, and I feel like they
- 9:29Speaker 5: wasn't given my situation enough intention of to fix it.
- 9:32Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.
- 9:33Speaker 4: One of my favorite songs that you ever put out
- 9:35Speaker 4: top of course a remix still gets played to this day,
- 9:39Speaker 4: heavy rotation everywhere. I want to talk about that particular
- 9:44Speaker 4: record because I feel like it was everywhere. How did
- 9:48Speaker 4: that make you feel? Was that one of you? Was
- 9:51Speaker 4: that to was that to you?
- 9:52Speaker 5: First time? I felt like a raffle. It was the
- 9:56Speaker 5: chick start.
- 9:57Speaker 4: Changed because last time I saw your chain one that big.
- 10:01Speaker 4: Now you was shining though, I mean unless you had
- 10:03Speaker 4: that without me seeing that, Yeah, I think a couple
- 10:06Speaker 4: of years back. Okay, my bad, correct me, now, give

- 16:11Speaker 5: because you know cool, But it wasn't like I'm a
- 16:14Speaker 5: more musical soul forul.
- 16:16Speaker 4: That's why I ask you. Because you don't really sound
- 16:18Speaker 4: like you're from where you're from. Sometimes I can hear
- 16:20Speaker 4: the accent when you get when you get deep into it.
- 16:23Speaker 4: But you have a little acoustic to your your your tone.
- 16:26Speaker 5: I appreciate that.
- 16:27Speaker 1: So you know you acoustic, but he gonna use that
- 16:31Speaker 1: the fly.
- 16:33Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. You have a little you
- 16:34Speaker 4: have a little harmony to your ship.
- 16:35Speaker 5: I like.
- 16:36Speaker 4: I like the harmony. I like when you do your harmonies,
- 16:38Speaker 4: like I think you're fired with when you're at your best.
- 16:41Speaker 5: When when I hear that, Okay, I appreciate that.
- 16:44Speaker 6: Man, So your project I'm sad. Why is it called
- 16:47Speaker 6: I'm sad?
- 16:47Speaker 5: Because during the fourteen months I was going through a
- 16:50Speaker 5: lot of depths and a lot of other stuff, and
- 16:52Speaker 5: people kept asking like, oh, how you feeling? You know,
- 16:56Speaker 5: how you doing it? Yes, I'm said, you get me,
- 16:59Speaker 5: but mainly showing the artists I can make regular music
- 17:02Speaker 5: and make happy music, club music, and the whole time
- 17:04Speaker 5: I'll be going through something mm hm.
- 17:06Speaker 7: I feel like that's really brave of you to to
- 17:09Speaker 7: admit that. I feel like, especially for a man, it's
- 17:11Speaker 7: like it's hard to admit when you know, to share
- 17:14Speaker 7: your emotions about how you feel, because most people are
- 17:16Speaker 7: not gonna tell you like, oh, man, I'm sad, or
- 17:18Speaker 7: you know I'm depressed or he had nobody to talk to.
- 17:22Speaker 4: Yeah, is that your therapy to music? Put it in,
- 17:25Speaker 4: put it out through the music? That's do you mentally?
- 17:30Speaker 4: Have you ever spoke to somebody professionally? Doing the next
- 17:34Speaker 4: two weeks I kind of give you a lot more clarity.
- 17:37Speaker 7: What's your on the project? What's your favorite record that
- 17:40Speaker 7: you think a lot of people are gonna gravitate to? Like, man,
- 17:43Speaker 7: when they hear this one right here, like, it's one.
- 17:46Speaker 5: I don't really know. That's why sad about the project, Like,
- 17:50Speaker 5: because I haven't dropped so long. I'm trying to find
- 17:52Speaker 5: myself confidence.
- 17:53Speaker 7: Yeah, so you're kind of gonna let the fans pick
- 17:56Speaker 7: because a lot of artists do have like that. You know,
- 17:59Speaker 7: they'll say when it's come out, like, I think this
- 18:01Speaker 7: is the one that people gonna gravitate to.
- 18:03Speaker 5: Normally I do have that feeling sometimes, but well this one.
- 18:08Speaker 4: I just what type of features you got on there?
- 18:11Speaker 5: Who you got on Kevin Gates, Rick Ross, Rob for
- 18:14Speaker 5: nine Treated and uh In, Elie Chopper.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Okay, who's your favorite to work with?
- 18:20Speaker 5: I don't know, because I'll be already making the tracks
- 18:24Speaker 5: and I just be sending them. Motherfuckers. Me and rob
- 18:26Speaker 5: did the song together. Yea Robbie tripping though sometimes he
- 18:32Speaker 5: having studio lights off and ship with a little colorful
- 18:34Speaker 5: lights and ship it be dark.
- 18:36Speaker 1: Can't he see because he wearing on shades?
- 18:38Speaker 4: Ye tripping?
- 18:40Speaker 5: They tell the lights out.
- 18:44Speaker 1: So but about though, I got another question.
- 18:46Speaker 7: I see you did an interview with Live TV where
- 18:49Speaker 7: you said doctor Umar was racist.
- 18:50Speaker 5: Why do you feel like say that? I need to
- 18:52Speaker 5: call bro.
- 18:54Speaker 1: I've seen that all in the headline.
- 18:56Speaker 5: Clear up his team be doing that ship man, I don't.
- 18:58Speaker 5: I don't be liking that. What I said when he
- 19:01Speaker 5: told me the Umar situation. I like Umar cause he's funny.
- 19:04Speaker 5: His head gifts. You feel me, I said, Once he
- 19:09Speaker 5: told me what Umar did, I said, older black people,
- 19:13Speaker 5: I feel. He asked me how I felt. I said,
- 19:15Speaker 5: I felt like a lot of older black people have
- 19:17Speaker 5: the tendency to do racist things. You know what I'm saying. Like,
- 19:21Speaker 5: but that's how we growing up, and we don't look
- 19:24Speaker 5: at it as racist because we just so used to
- 19:27Speaker 5: it being on the other end of the stick. You
- 19:29Speaker 5: feel me. It's just like BT network Black Entertainment. What
- 19:33Speaker 5: if they had a white entertainment we all be protesting
- 19:36Speaker 5: and shit and trying to get rid of it. You
- 19:37Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. I feel like just we have
- 19:40Speaker 5: the tendency of unsubconsciously if that's the right word I'm
- 19:47Speaker 5: trying to use, segregating ourselves and we don't notice it.
- 19:53Speaker 1: Also, say you ain't have a grandma.
- 19:55Speaker 5: Somebody told you when you go to the store, don't
- 19:57Speaker 5: talking to the white people over there.
- 19:59Speaker 1: Nah my grandma a.
- 20:02Speaker 5: Up. They used to tell us avoid the white people.
- 20:04Speaker 6: Are doing this in public, just like.
- 20:06Speaker 5: You know, just not to get in trouble, like just
- 20:08Speaker 5: to have correct we got our way be hanging, you know,
- 20:11Speaker 5: they used to be hanging sh mother, be just missing
- 20:15Speaker 5: in all the type of shit. But just like just
- 20:17Speaker 5: to stay out of trouble. But if it was on
- 20:19Speaker 5: all the shoots on the other foot, we'd be like,
- 20:21Speaker 5: oh damn, that's a racist shit to say.
- 20:23Speaker 1: I get what you're saying.
- 20:24Speaker 5: Like Lumar like basically he was like even with that situation,
- 20:28Speaker 5: Maam saying em can't be can't be the best rabbit
- 20:32Speaker 5: because he's white. What if it's in country moves music
- 20:34Speaker 5: and they say, oh, you can't be top country artists
- 20:37Speaker 5: because you're black. M hm.
- 20:39Speaker 6: You feel they have a lot of ways of saying
- 20:41Speaker 6: that without saying.
- 20:43Speaker 5: Yeah, Like I'm just saying a lot of things we
- 20:45Speaker 5: say and dude, it'd be really racist, but we just
- 20:49Speaker 5: don't be noticing because we're so used to be on
- 20:51Speaker 5: the other foot.
- 20:52Speaker 6: I mean, we are in a racist country.
- 20:53Speaker 1: You don't believe that black people can't be racist. I
- 20:57Speaker 1: feel like I feel like.
- 20:58Speaker 4: A lot of black people think they feel like.
- 21:01Speaker 6: He's saying that he thinks black people are racist, older,
- 21:04Speaker 6: older black people.
- 21:05Speaker 5: Yeah, especially older ones. I feel like all of us
- 21:07Speaker 5: just be doing some racistoets. Sometimes we just don't be noticing. Yeah,
- 21:11Speaker 5: it's just like, we're gonna look at that white boy
- 21:13Speaker 5: right there, he tripped, But their statement was not a
- 21:18Speaker 5: white person will say, look at that black boy right there.
- 21:22Speaker 4: Yeah, we're gonna we're gonna fell away.
- 21:23Speaker 5: You have a point, We just but we're just so
- 21:26Speaker 5: used to the shoot being on the other foot that
- 21:28Speaker 5: we don't notice that what we're saying and doing. You
- 21:31Speaker 5: feel me, we don't. We don't put that, we don't
- 21:34Speaker 5: make it equal.
- 21:35Speaker 7: So you just you just feel like that you pretty
- 21:38Speaker 7: much was like just defending the fact that saying like,
- 21:41Speaker 7: hey man, you can't say somebody is not number one
- 21:43Speaker 7: because of their skin.
- 21:44Speaker 5: Cot I wasn't trying to call him racist. I wasn't like,
- 21:48Speaker 5: oh he racist, But I know lad team got a
- 21:53Speaker 5: half or sometimes of not clickbaiting but trying to bringing attention.
- 21:58Speaker 5: So I understand that, But like, I don't like it.
- 22:00Speaker 5: That's making me look like I'm disrespecting the person.
- 22:02Speaker 6: Got you how you feel about white people saying it
- 22:05Speaker 6: in word and like music, I mean, it.
- 22:09Speaker 5: Is what it is racist.
- 22:12Speaker 4: It is what it is racist.
- 22:13Speaker 5: But I tend to not being people business and like
- 22:18Speaker 5: I'm not one of the motherfuckers on everything be happening
- 22:21Speaker 5: on the comments, I feel like this is so despicable artist.
- 22:24Speaker 5: I just be minding my own fucking business.
- 22:26Speaker 1: So you don't you don't feel like that.
- 22:28Speaker 7: There's some platforms that are white on exploit the hip
- 22:34Speaker 7: hop culture.
- 22:34Speaker 5: I feel like all platforms exploit black and white.
- 22:38Speaker 1: That's that's interesting. We got.
- 22:40Speaker 5: I just feel like the world all together just have
- 22:42Speaker 5: a habit of colorizing everything, like instead of right and wrong,
- 22:46Speaker 5: it is black and white, Like just could be black
- 22:49Speaker 5: on me and we cool. It's cool for us to
- 22:51Speaker 5: do sh too. I got a perfect example, the Black
- 22:55Speaker 5: Lives Matter shirts. Right, I forgot who was it? Kanye?
- 22:58Speaker 5: Did the White Lives Matter shot?
- 23:00Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 23:03Speaker 6: Did you not see a problem with that?
- 23:06Speaker 5: I feel like it's just should have been all lives.
- 23:10Speaker 7: I understand that that that's it's a bold statement you saying.
- 23:14Speaker 5: Now, I don't can't what people feel. I see what
- 23:16Speaker 5: I feel. But but what I'm saying, I understand the
- 23:19Speaker 5: timing was wrong. But people don't beat people be we
- 23:24Speaker 5: be not just us. Everybody be segregating the ship sometimes
- 23:27Speaker 5: and don't be noticing this ship instead of saying all
- 23:30Speaker 5: lives it was just black lives.
- 23:32Speaker 7: Well, I think I think the Black lives situation to
- 23:35Speaker 7: me was a was an interesting time in our country.
- 23:40Speaker 5: So like what I'm saying with the White Lives Matter
- 23:42Speaker 5: s ship, it was a wrong timing for you feel
- 23:45Speaker 5: what I'm saying, But I understand what he was trying
- 23:47Speaker 5: to say.
- 23:49Speaker 1: Kanye, what do you think he was trying to say.
- 23:51Speaker 5: All lives matter? But instead of saying that, he's picked
- 23:54Speaker 5: the wrong words.
- 23:55Speaker 6: I think he meant what he was saying when he
- 23:57Speaker 6: wore that shirt.
- 23:59Speaker 5: Yeah, I definitely feel but you see how different type
- 24:03Speaker 5: of ways?
- 24:04Speaker 4: Yeah, because I remember you could see, you know, I mean,
- 24:08Speaker 4: I don't really want to re talk about it, but
- 24:11Speaker 4: what happened was something that I feel was a you know,
- 24:15Speaker 4: someone that was being racial profile, racially profiled, So that
- 24:20Speaker 4: was a racist situation that we autuation. Yes I'm not
- 24:26Speaker 4: that's kind of what sparked it. So, Yeah, the time
- 24:29Speaker 4: was terrible, terrible, Yeah that yeah, I don't even Yeah,
- 24:33Speaker 4: it was just terrible. I get what you're I get
- 24:35Speaker 4: what you're saying.
- 24:37Speaker 5: I just feel like i'mferent situations.
- 24:40Speaker 4: I think you're taking your You're basically saying, let's take
- 24:42Speaker 4: the color away, and what's that person was wrong period,
- 24:46Speaker 4: and that person is wrong to regardless of color.
- 24:49Speaker 5: That well, I feel like it would just be too
- 24:54Speaker 5: deep and everybody don't think deep.
- 24:58Speaker 7: That and that, and that's the problem with a lot
- 25:00Speaker 7: of things that come out on the internet.
- 25:02Speaker 1: That's why I want you to clarify.
- 25:04Speaker 5: Motherfucker on the site and they look at the headlining
- 25:07Speaker 5: and if we got a video at the about ten
- 25:08Speaker 5: seconds of the video, it could be a fifty second video.
- 25:11Speaker 5: They typing in comment right now, Yeah, people, then they'll
- 25:14Speaker 5: forget they missed the whole rest of the statement.
- 25:17Speaker 7: Yeah, that's why I wanted you to clarify you know
- 25:20Speaker 7: that statement, because I was like, man, this is kind
- 25:22Speaker 7: that's kind of a bold statement, you know, to you know,
- 25:25Speaker 7: to say, especially using the word racist nowadays, Like that's
