• 1:22
  Speaker 1: didn't like that either, some of the White sixe. No,
• 1:24

• 1:27
  Speaker 1: you should hate the Cubs. Yeah. And it's not like
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: having two wives, like being bisexual. No, that's what it is. Yeah,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: it's not. Yes, it's not like sex. It's bad. Every
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: year I pick a different football team that I roote for,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: not just be like this year, this is a team
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: that I like just based off of my instinct. It's
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: some here it is this is based off of my instinct.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Like this year, I like the Detroit Lions. Oh that
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: was a good pick. Yeah, yeah, they're kind of an
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: up and I think twenty and sixteen has been so weird.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: I this is the one year I could actually see
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: the Lions making the Super Bowl, stopping think not with
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: my Cowboys. Well, think of all the weird that's happened
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: the Cubs, Cleveland wins, wins the title like the evolution,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: and the Cowboys are the Kardashian The Cowboys are break
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: it down for me. Okay, they get a ton of
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: attention whether they're good or not. That's true. If they
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: don't have talent, They're still in the headlines every week.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: So this season the Cowboys are actually good. It would
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: be like if Kim Kardashian was in the Jackie movie
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: or something. So who kiscar nominee? Who's uh j Elia
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: shows the stomach a lot na? Jerry would be Chris. Oh, yeah,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: you're right, Jerry's Chris. Yeah. So whoever the quarterback is
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Dak baby. Well see that's the things I really like
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Dak Okay, instinctively I want to root against the Cowboys,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: But the last two quarterbacks you've had are both like
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: very likable. Yeah, what do you think about football? I
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: was watching the documentary of A Day and it was like,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: it's affecting kids so bad. You know, their brains are
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: not fully grown. It's really messing the kids up. I
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: don't understand how we have youth football all the evidence
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: we have so far, it's like if you get a
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: concussion when you brains not fully formed yet, if it's
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: like under if you're under fifteen, it's it's terrible. And
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: if you get two like you're pla you know, you
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: know what they even said, they said it's crazy because
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: in the NFL they don't hit each other during practice,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: there's no full hitting. But in youth football they hit
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: four times a week, five times a week. I said,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: even in high school they only hit twice a week.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Why are you having these kids hitting sevent eight nine two?
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I don't understand. I have a nine year old son
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: who's built like a tank. It's like all muscle. He
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: doesn't want to play football, does he want to do?
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: He actually wants to be a professional wrestler, which is
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: probably worse. He's doing like cannonballs off our couch and stuff.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: But we do not want him to play football. I
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: don't want him to play football. I don't know. I
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: think every parents different, and it probably depends on where
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: you are in the country, you know. And I think
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: where football goes is probably a little bit like boxing,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: you know. In boxing, all of a sudden it became
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: not cool anymore. Boxing was like in the thirties, forties
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and fifties, it was like a great way out for
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: anyone who is poor, and then eventually it became really
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: something that was geared more toward the minorities when you
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: look at would happen to the eighties and nineties, two
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: thousands foreigners and people like that. And I think with football,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: it's gonna have its little bass, right, it's gonna Texas
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: or was gonna play football. It's part of the culture.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Like they'll spend sixty million dollars on a high school
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: football stadium in Texas, Florida, Pennsylvania, yet anywhere in the South.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: So there's gonna be pockets. But I think, I honestly
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: think it's gonna be like the election move out toward
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: the Red States. I don't think they give it. Probably
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: have allowed to do it too though. Yeah. Absolutely, If
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: you think your kid can get you out the hood
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: by running that ball, you go play football. But let's
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: say you're a nine year old kid, I don't know
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the outskirts of Dallas, you have no money, and you're
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: a great athlete. I would want to play basketball. I
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: look at hoops, I'm like you have a twenty year career.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna get hurt. You're not gonna have headed
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: basketball a little more but that, But that would be
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: my first pick, and then after that you look at it,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: you go, all right, baseball would be great, that's another one,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: but football would be like my third pick. The thing
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: is like those contracts aren't guaranteed and it's a short life. Okay.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Somebody had this ANALOGI about running backs and porn stars,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Like stars only have so many movies, and then after
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: that they're get a little gaming running back. Same thing.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: You have how many cares you have? Two thousand? Yeah,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: you get a little good seasons at the most good seasons. Yeah.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: So if so, if you're Zeke Ellie, you could have
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: played every sport. You're looking at a career where you're
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: under a rookie contract the first four years, you're taking
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: a ton of punishment. He signed that one second contract
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: with Arian Foster did or like Gronkowski. Gronkowski seven years,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: he's had like eight surgeries now, you know, and he's
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: somebody that could have probably played any sport, but now
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: he's he's in three back surgeries. He blew out his
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: knee get a high ankle sprain. He broke his forearm twice, Like,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: how many years is that guy gonna play? Him? May
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: be done before he's thirty. I'm shocked to hit that
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: you care about players getting hurt because I saw you
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: tweet out about Clay Thompson. He went for sixty now
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: that they should have kept him, and he's a little
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: fasketball you can go for it, but they were about
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: to get me to hurt. Probably, how's he gonna get hurt?
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: He shot three third fighting point happen. People are trying
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: to compare it to like the Warriors going for seventy
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: three wins last year. It's totally different that that was
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: a situation when you're playing back to back games, you're
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: playing four games and five nights. You're putting miles on
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: your team that you don't have to Klay. Thompson's like,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: just go out and play for five more minutes. Get
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: to seventy because I wrote, I mean I spent selfishness,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I spent three years right in a basketball book. You
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: look at those lists, and those lists are forever, like
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: David Thompson's seventy three points, Pete marriage sixty, Kobe eighty one.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: I was mad, like three weeks before Kobe got eighty one.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: He had sixty two against the MAVs after three quarters,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: and I actually wrote a column for ESPM magazine was like, what, like,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: you know, five nights like that in your life, stay
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: out there so you can get And then he actually
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: did it. Everybody remembers the eighty one, that ten year
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: anniversary oral histories, you know, a short film about it.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Jailer Rolds can't live it down. You guys asked about that. Yeah,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: you know what, he's got awesome sense of human that
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: because Jalen always says that, you know, he was never
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: the greatest defensive specialist. That's my due thought to him.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I watched that whole interview. What nice, I mean, we
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: just have conversations with people. Yeah, he Beckham. Julia'll tell
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: you I wasn't talking about that. Oh I'm sorry, my bad.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: See I love Odell. What's interesting is all the kids
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: love Odell and they don't have a lot of football
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: players like that because that because he's fun. He's always
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: like dancing, he hangs out with Drake, he has a
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: good time. He's nice, he's good. Don't just say because
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: he's you know he's good. He gets gay like in
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the nineteen thirties. Yeah, really happy guys. You know what,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: they're lucky with the with the kids that they love.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: The one hand right, the one hand and catches. So
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: they're being like the you know, research trying. I'm gonna
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: do my son does it all time? Let me try
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: to good adell. All right, we got more with Bill
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Simmons when we come back, keep it locked. It's the
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: breakfast locomotor, the breakfast club. How she ever, says cover
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: see coming to merse showing of a cunning me morning.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ MVY, Angela Gyei, Charlemagne, the guy. We
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: all the breakfast club. We have Bill Simmons in the
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: building there. Yet, what do you think about athletes having
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: political views on things and taking a stand? You think
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: that that doesn't belong? I love it. I totally supported
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: with Kaepernick. Did The problem with Kaepernick is the more
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: he said and did, the MORENT made you go, hmm.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know if this guy has a master plan,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Like the fact that he didn't vote I thought was
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: really strange, Like if you're gonna position yourself as this
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: kind of twenty and sixteen version of John Carlos and
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Tommy Smith, and you're doing stuff with the big picture
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: of mind of all that stuff. How do you then say,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: I'm sitting out the election. It doesn't matter if he
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: was anti governing an anti establishment from the beginning, though,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: I thought it would have been weird if, like, you know,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: one of the candidates was like, had a big police
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: reform policy that they was going to implement and was
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: talking about it, and if he didn't vote for that,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: then I'd have been like, Okay, that's a little screene.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: But just to sit out because he don't believe in
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: the government. I didn't have a problem. What do you
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: guys think I had. Lebron handles stuff like I thought
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: what he did with jay Von Martin in the HOODI
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: is in the Miami team. I thought that was really important,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: in the fact last night he didn't stay at the
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Trump Hotel here in New York. Yeah. Yeah, he's subtly
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: it sometimes I at least feel like he's thinking about
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: it more and more and more. Jordan was always like,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I'm not doing anything that messages with my sales. I
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: want to appeal to everybody. I'm not I don't want
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: anyone know what I'm thinking, Well, Jordan wasn't in the
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: social media era. No, he wasn't a put pressure on
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: you to you know a lot of things that defy
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: what people normally do, like NBA players. As far as
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: the people around him and his team, I agree, and
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: it's been working for him. Lebron has handled it as
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: well as anyone could have possibly handled it, because when
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: you think about it, he's basically a child actor. He's
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: basically had the same forces going against him that like
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Screech did and Britney spearious about his place. People are like,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: didn't work out over great and it goes wrong, Michael Jackson,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: and you know, Lebron was famous from the moment he
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: was sixteen years old, and he was this poor kid
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: who was sleeping on couches when he was eight years
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: old and didn't have like a great family infrastructure, and
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: he was like always very tight with his buddies and
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: it was his Yeah. No, I'm not saying that he
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: had hit his boys and those were his boys and
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: that was like that became his family. But when you think,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: oh this that got thrown on him, he's in the
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: cover of Sports Illustrated playing high school games on ESPN.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: He's get people are giving him hommers. He's got all
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: these people coming at him trying to give money. And
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: then he goes into the NBA right away he's really good.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: And then just the arc of his career, I think
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: he's handled it great. I think it's because he embraced
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: the hate, like he didn't fight against it like sometimes
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: you just got to own it. He did fight against
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: it for like four months. Remember that first Miami season
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: he was playing. He had this anger about him that
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: wasn't him. So I think he had a lot of trouble.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: And I think the Warriors, you've seen it this year
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: a little bit. I think they're having trouble when you
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: go from being this beloved team that's old league passed, Oh,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Curi's catching fire and embers on Twitter, and then all
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, you're like the wrestling villain. You know,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Draymond loves it. He's meant to do that. But I think,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: like somebody like Steph Curry, I'm sure he's a little
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: bit like, oh what happened whenever they loved me? Not
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: see you and sharlet me to have a lot in common.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: He gets threatened a lot and you got threatened by
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Isaia Thomas the legend did stephen A Smith show like
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: ten years ago when I see, Yeah, so I used
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: to make fun of him as the Knicks GM and
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: rightly so because he was doing Did you ever ask
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: with he was gate Isaiah Thomas? No, why do you
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: want to ask? Everybody game? I was asking? They was
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: kind of like Odell Before Odell. Everyone was like, is
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: he is he not? Seriously? Come on, Bill, you remember well,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: I mean him and Magic were kissing each other in
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: the cheeks and I'm sure that probably help. He said
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: on stephen A that, uh, that he ever saw him
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: in the street would be in trouble. And then two
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: years later, No, I saw him in Vegas. I was
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: playing blackjack at one of those European places where you're outdoors,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: you're by the pool and it's like the girls can
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: be naked, but it's never anybody you want to see. Yeah,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: what a rich privilege they cars the tops. No, No,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: you have like the black check table here and then
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: the pool is over there and just like people are top.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: It's like all European. But then you could do that
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: at the Mandalay Bay. You can do it at a
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: bunch of them. Yeah, I've never heard of so okay,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: so what happened? You and I have some prostitubes. No.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: I ran into Gus Johnson. Okay, remember Gus Johnson, the announcer.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: He's still that he did the Fox game on something.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: And he came over. He's all somber Gus Johnson like
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: that the Gus Johnson won. He's like, hey, man, Isaiah's
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: over there. You know, he wants to talk to you.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, get up from a black check table.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: We go. We have this meeting by this top us pool.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I wrote about it in my book. It kind of
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: broke bread. He laid out, like, I get it, I'm
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: a public figure. I disagreed, and you remembered like everything
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: I wrote, which I thought was weird. Did you ever
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: think y'all gonna no and I'm here would have won.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: He's taller than I am, and he's probably and you
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: know he's a professional athlete. Think he would have kick
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: my ass. So he knew he knew everything that you wrote,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: so that means he was he knew it. I was
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: surprised by how much he paid attention to it. And
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: he was like explaining what was interesting was as he
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: was explaining it, he was kind of winning me over.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: He's like, the whole league's going small. So I thought
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: when I got Eddie Curry and Zach Randolph, I'd go big.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, yeah, I say that's pretty good. Afterwards,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: I'm like, that's the terriblez never heard. But when somebody's
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: explaining that to you in the moment, you're like, oh,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: all right, maybe it made fit, But yeah, I think
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: I had better odds than you in the five on
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: one whatever he got jumped. Yeah, you probably did. Yeah,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: one on one, I mean I might have been able
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: to good luck luck five on like he's had. That's
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: way worse. You gotta get the hell out of the dodge.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Did you guys think what Birdman was in here to?
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Do you think that was gonna get Never? No, that's
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: why when you said the story about other thing, I'm thinking,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: I wonder if at any point in mind did you
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: think there may fight me with hip hop? You never know. Listen,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: there will never be another Birdman moment like that. That
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: is like the greatest three minutes on YouTube. It's incredible.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: The whole he's mad before the cameras or seen him.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Did you guys feel like he was gonna jump over
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: the table? You No, I didn't really think that. He
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: was sitting right here right. Yeah. He was right older
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: than you, bro, but he was angry. He was very
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: like that, very upset. What was what was it? Did
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Jim embert um Jimmember Chris Chris Rome moment? Yea, but
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: that was Jim Rome Chris Jim Rome, Yeah whatever, Yeah,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Jim Rome. There's this Rams quarterback and he wasn't very
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: good and Jim Rome always called him Chris Everett, the
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: tennis player. So he came out on a show and
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Jim Everett's like, I bet you won't call me Chris,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: and Jim's like Chris, And the guy flipped the table
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: and like grabbed him and knocked him down. Really why
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: it was on ESPN, and I gonna get one of these.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: I can't wait for that. Well, this is close. I know,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: I know, I know he's in good shape over there camera. Man.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: I almost save that one for next year. I was
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Burman so mad, though. Charlot said that if you're honest,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: she's stupid to sign with him, because you're not gonna
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: get paid to make any Moore he's got a true though,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: he got a history exactly, he got a history or not. Mean,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: it's like the most famous, like people never get paid.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: He's up there, what's in him on the street? Yeah,
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry everybody. They don't assault white people. They don't.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Have you ever been threatened by anybody else? Like? Has it?
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: I mean on social media and emails and stuff like that,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: But I mean, like an athlete, do they get upset
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: that you say ever? Or they just taken on the tap?
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: I'm sure they have. I've definitely run into people where
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: it's a little tense. It's more coaches, the GMS and
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: people like that, like the people that run the teams,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: because I always love making fun of the people that
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: run the teams to make bad decisions. But sports people
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: have a good sense of humor bad I think when
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: it gets tense, that's usually athlete versus athlete like Odell
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: and Josh Norman last year, which would be like a
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: thirty for thirty episode. Yeah, I've heard some of different
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: explanations and stories the love of quarrel. You created thirty right,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: I did your idea? Yeah, yeah that was two thousand
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: and seven. Now we're pace to do like nine of them.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: All right, we got more with Bill Simmons when we
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: come back. Keep it locked, don't move. It's the breakfast
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Local Motor, the Breakfast Club wanting everybody is DJ M,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: v Angela, Ye, Charlomagne and God we all the Breakfast Club.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: We have Bill Simmons in the building now, Charlomagne. I
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: even said it. The negative stuff I hit boy Bill
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Simmons comes from people from ESPN, Like they said, you're different,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: you were difficult, and yeah, all I did. All I
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: did was trying to do good for them, you know,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: and like you look at Grantland and thirty for thirty
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: and all these different places that I work for, and
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: everybody got along great, even my TV show. You know,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: it's weird. ESPN is a place that they never want
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: anybody to get their own little fifetom of power basically
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: leased them. They want they want the brand to win.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: And I do think I hit a point there when
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: I had Grantling at thirty thirty going at the same
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: time I was on the NBA show. Definitely a lot
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: of power and I was in LA. People in Bristol
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: are like this guy, like I don't know, might be
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: bigger than the brand of ESPN. Basically yea. And by
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: the way, nobody's going to be bigger than the brand.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: The brand's an eight billion dollars brand, you know. And
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: what's wrong with it's weird because they operate a little
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: bit like how the NFL operates. NFL doesn't want any
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: player basically to have any identity whatsoever. Like you take
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: your helmet off after a touchdown, it's a penalty, and
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: you're celebrated after touchdown, get a penalty. Like there's this
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: coded racism to it that I think is really up
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: coded racism. Yeah, okay, we're gonna Why do they care
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: so much about how people behave after they've succeeded in
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: a football game? What is that? Grady? You know, I
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: think it would be white people too, but just in general,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: like there's an expressiveness, and I think it's one of
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: the reasons that people have responded to the NBA so
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: much because the NBA has always blended for better and
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: worse black culture in sports, and it's been race has
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: been the most fascinating thing about the NBA since then
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: the fifties when they only allowed like one black guy
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: per ten, like they had all these rules and Russell
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: comes in, he makes a horizontal Will comes in Oscar.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: The attitude in the sixties and seventies is basically like,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: oh my god, the black guys are taking over the NBA,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: and you saw it with the TV ratings. You read
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: these stories, there's some ump stories. The NBA did have
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: one moment, one moment when they pushed back. That's what
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: was the ai A nineties. But if you go with
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: the shoes re member, they didn't want them to wear
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: a certain color shoes. They found them with the shoes
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: and AI with the hair and with the jewelry. There's
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: this amazing story in Sports illustrat in the late seventies
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: where the ratings are going down in the NBA and
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: they're trying to figure it out, and the whole premise
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: of the story is the NBA is two black, what
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: do we do? In the mid nineties, which had a
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: lot to do with the hip hop era and just
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: the expressiveness of that and the he's like, oh, what
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: are we gonna do? Like these haircuts as guys have,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: look at the way they're dressed when they don't tattoos.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Oh my god. Alan Iverson was the scariest than they
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: happened in the league because they were like, this is
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: what is this? How do we sell this? We need
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: like somebody like magic who appeals to everybody. That story
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: you just told shows how ridiculous racism is, because if
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: you think about it, imagine what the NBA would be
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: now without black people. So at one point somebody wrote
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: an article saying that it was a problem because it
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: was so many people in the NBA. I mean, they
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: really did think it was a problem. Yeah, and it
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: probably was to some degree. You're talking about forty years ago,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: and I think America was a lot more racist, probably
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: in the late seventies than it was now. But what
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: do you say to people who say you don't translate
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: the TV? Well, they might be right. My show just
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: got canceled. You know, the podcast is great. You're a
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: great writer. I listen. Yeah, I mean there's some some
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: stupid stuff that I would do over again, but you know,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: that's life. You know, when you guys did the Breakfast
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Club the first year, I'm sure you would have loved
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: ray J saved us. You know ray J? Do I
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: know ray J? You did covid J before? Huh? Ray
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Kim Karnashian's sex tape. That the worst sex tape anyone's
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: ever made. That's what is that is that? That's what
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: he did for us man, thank god. So what did
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: he do when he came up? He was drunk and
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: high as hell. He was on coke and all kinds
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: of stuff. He called the radio one morning and just
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: went in on a rant to a rapper name Fabulous.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: We put him alive and it was amazing. He said
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: he wouldn't curse. And then the first thing he said
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: was like he told Fabulous, I got gooms that will
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: turn you around and rape you in your booty. That's straighting.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Isaiah Thomas didn't say that to me. But you guys
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: hit a good spot on this show. And I don't
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: know when it happened because I've only listened to this show.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Guy's getting raped to stay and hit a good spot.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: But I just did it. Okay, I've only experienced a
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: show through video on YouTube and stuff like that. But
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: I liked that year in that Howard Stern zone of
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: you can just say whatever you want and it's and
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: people don't go nuts or oh I can't believe in
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: like somehow trying to jump me outside the station. Bill well,
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about I'm not talking about your physical safety.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: I'm saying you could have a guest on and the
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: guest comes in and the guest knows everything's on the table. Yeah, right,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: And that's a really hard place to get to. But
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: that's why he left. The show is indicated, and you know,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: fifty markets in the morning, so it's a lot of exposure.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: So you kind of want to do it even if, right,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: and you kind of accept the deal, right because like
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: this show is stern. There's a couple others where the
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: guest comes on and they're just like, I'm here. I
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: know they're going to bring it up. It's a great
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: sweet you can't hide it, and it's a really hard
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: place to get there. You made up with a bunch
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: of people, who haven't you made up with your biggest feud, right, Drake,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Drake is the only person good dude, Yeah, everybody else
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: still open. I did pretty much. We did Drake did countdown,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and then we did an SP's thing. We actually shot
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: an SP's piece together. When I saw him at the
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: SP's party, somebody was whatever, We're all standing around in
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: some circle and Drake was there, like, hey, Drake, do

• 22:54

• 23:53
  Speaker 1: count them money r you know what I mean. And
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: it's like he's giving them something they never had. He
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: giving them excitement. He's rebellious. And this man called Hillary
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Clinton the devil. I wouldn't call my huntie that. You
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, like you don't give But it
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: just showed you where we yet in this world. It's
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: like it is day and time that that's a presidential candidate.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Were you standing that politically because we all know you're
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: not voting. If I had to vote, it wouldn't be
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: for him, you know what I'm saying. But you know
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: you already know what you're dealing with. Man, But it's
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: just bad. But I don't feel like any of them
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: before the people. And my thing is, you know what
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, It's just like, you know, you can vote
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: if you're concerned about the taxes. You know, I mean,
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: I am a taxpayer. But at the end of the day,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: it's like I'm not looking for them to come fix
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: my community. That's I'm not coming fix my neighborhood or
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: you know, we're the leaders and we got all the
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: resources that we know, all the people. For real, It's
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: like we got to stop as people like sent back
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: to saying Okay, when you get president, gonna come fix this,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: like those things that was going on and Saint Louis
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: and all its crazy that was going on. It wasn't
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: but so much Brock could do, but the NICA kept
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: everybody calm right yea, like Jay Z said, government of government,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: politic yourself right, Yeah, I gotta power yourself. You gotta
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: do it. Last time you up here, jeez, you were um.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: It seems like you you had the hard bottoms on.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: You are pastor. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I knew it was
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: gonna be you though you was there, seems like you
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: were of your time, Like we need that out now.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: But listen, I promise I just told somebody the same thing.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: I take it too hard. So everything that I really
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: like I'm passionate about, I'll do it. And my point
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: what that was, I ain't tripping the money I already made.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: This is my art. I'm gonna let y'all know how
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: I feel. Call me like you're in the hood shooting
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: the video of the pastor suit like what you're doing?
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: You know? I mean it was mad, but I don't
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: think they understood you know my position. I'm for real
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: about this, man. I felt like, you know, I do
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: my souls. It is like church. These people really come
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: to hear what I gotta say. So it's like if
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: I could switch the message, I'm gonna switch the message.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: And I switched the message and I got locked up
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: for it. That was that was the devil testing, you
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. I got locked up for it,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: so and it was real. So you know, I felt like,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: you know, I made some type of sacrifice. I lost
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: a lot of business situations, a lot of endorsements. I've
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: seen a lot of people that I thought was my peers,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: and you know what I'm saying, really had my back
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: turning back on me. I had, you know, friends that
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: I felt like with a road for me, and ain't
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: nobody standing up. I was on my own, you know,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: very kind. You know, he did what he could, you know,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: the talking me off the list because I was going
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: crazy at the time. But I was, you know, hide
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: to Baraqck because he didn't get me no love. It
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: will say. I was hid that people there was around
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: that really didn't you know, handle their business like they
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: should and all that just to get an album out,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And I feel like that
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: at the time the game needed that. But I learned
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: one thing just going through that process. You can't talk
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: at people. He can't feel too preachy, you know what,
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: Right you got, you gotta kind of slipping one, and
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: I learned that. But I do think Church and the
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Streets could have been the album that I put out
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: now the time. But when I really start seeing what
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: was going on, I was like, you know where man,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: and my mum always told me, I'll try to fix
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: every problem, but it was too big of a problem
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: for me to fix. So even going back to what
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: I'm doing now, it's like, let me at least fix
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: the streets because I can handle that. The dealer ever
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: feel lost out here? And what I mean by that
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: is in this era, everybody celebrates the fiend, So I
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: wanted do they even want to hear from the dealer?
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Good question. That's a lot really why I'm bringing you know,
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: the whole trilogy back because when I grew up, we
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: had real morals like these things right now, they're gonna
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: tell you tomorrow being a club like they ain't gonna
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: be because they're gonna tell on you again. And you
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: know that just the way this generation is so because
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: they wasn't raised by their parents like that, They never
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: had their uncle's you know, wentn't there for them like that.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: You know, everybody was living their life you talking at
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: eighties and nineties babies. They don't even want no money.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: They they didn't want to kill you. We didn't want
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: a reputation. So it's like when you look at it,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: that you already see what you look at it. I
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: came from my air wood. I didn't even smoke weed
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: when I was in the street because I had to
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: be focused. I don't want to you knock my head
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: off for me to go do no dumb the situation
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: and get locked up in ten fifteen years twenty years
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: of life sentence because I'm not thinking clearly. So when
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: I hear what they're talking about these days, I go, damn.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: But that's where it makes me have to come back
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: and be the big homie because it's the door that
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: I opened. All these kids are trying to be who
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: I was teen fifteen years ago, like now with the
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: ig and the way they you know, the perception of it,
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: like some money I do make it. Really it's your
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: kidstraight's your mama good? You know what I'm saying, Like
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: do you do you got something put away? You got
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: loyal fee? Because you are here to do all this.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: They ain't no money for you know what I'm saying,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: because like, you know what I mean, go do all
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: this crazy. So I think, now if you really just
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: sit back and look at it, how many whip you know,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: pillars they are in the penitentiary for real? I think
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: because they opened up a door. And the reason why
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: I referenced a lot of things to pop and people
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: don't understand because that's what my morals. You know, that's
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: the celing for my mom, that's that's that's that's the ball.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: You know, everything he talked about, I really lived that
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: to get to where I was, and that's that was
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: my bible. When I got the position, I was like,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: well he would have and that's what I'm going to do.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: A lot of people look at you as that that's
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So now is that much important to
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: me to tell y'all getting your money? But this is
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: the other side of the game. This is when you've
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: been you know, you're far removed from the streets, and
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: you've been out the streets ten fifteen years, and now
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: you in this game. You got to know how to
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: play this game the same way, because you know this
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: game is a little tricky, it's actually even worse. But
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: the reality of it is is nobody to set that
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: bar butt me. So if I would have stayed on
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: the other path of Church of the street, now I
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: don't left it wide open. And then the next like
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: what parts do you think I'm bad? He went to
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: the next get it? He gonna tell you, Man, I
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: don't care about nothing, So I respect it in this sense,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: but I almost feel like I'm obligated and that's my
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: responsibility to come back and restore some real order. All right,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: we got more with Gez when we come back. Keep
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: it locked. This to Breakfast Club, Good Morning, the Breakfast
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: guy we are the Breakfast Club Easy is in the
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: building now you well, you are known for helping out
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: a lot of the younger artists and taking them under
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: your wing, but sometimes it doesn't work out. What are
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: the main reasons why you feel like certain artists that
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: you saw I had a lot of potential that you
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: wanted to work with. What are some of the pitfalls
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: that they've had that you feel like, if you're gonna
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: come into my wing and you need to make sure
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: you handle you gotta want it just because you know
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna run over a lot. They don't mean I'm
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: gonna have the same I gotta want it, you know
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I gotta I gotta be a sponge.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: You don't have to tell me everything. I don't have
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: to be around somebody and be like, Okay, well I'm
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: walking with you now, so I'm good. It's like, no,
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: you gotta work even harder. I can put you on
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: the stage and set the stage for you, but you
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: gotta perform your hard out to make these people believe you.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Because just because they're my fans don't mean they're gonna
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: buy into you. And I just think a lot of
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: times when you're dealing with these cats, you know they
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: want to shine, but they don't want to grin like
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: they don't want to go out. I work, But I
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: tell you, when my week was like what I'm saying now,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: even at this point in my career, that's all I do.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: I grind, and I'm discipline enough to have discipline. I'm
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: making business move that you probably won't hear about. You
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Until twenty twenty, you were out
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: and you in the club. I'm in the studio and
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: I'm still writing records, and that's at this point in Michael,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So every day to me
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: is about progress and investing in myself and making sure
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: that I'm the best that I could be. And that's
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: why I telcast sometimes you don't understand. If I'm not
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: the best that I could be, I can't help you.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: So why you think on the flip side of her
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: question while you think somebody like why G did work
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: because he wanted it. I told my man folk that
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: I was like, he's getting better. He knows what HyG
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: is now. And this is somebody that I had to
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: sit down and move to Atlanta and fix things with him.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: And Mustard didn't understand what's going. Like I'm a man like,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: ain't about Y'all's about the fans. You know what I'm saying.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: You can't do an album and I have Mustard on
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: an album. It's crazy. And even when I saw, you know,
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: the Mustard played with YG, I was like, this is it.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: You got everything focus on making this album. And then
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: even when he came to me and he was like, yea,
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: I want to call my album bumped, and I was like,
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: my man, like that ain't it. How can we get
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: people to relate to who you are? You're a young gangster.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: What's the day in the life of a young gangster life?
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: When this album come on and the start off, how
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: your day starts and when it goes off, that's how
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: your day in. So that's why you hear his MoMA
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: on there. I don't I just want to party, don't
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: want to hurt nobody to breaking the houses. And one
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: thing I can say about yg and I do really mean,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: is is you can tell him anything. He takes his time,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: he thinks about it, and he'd come back they be like, yeah,
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: you was right. What I'm gonna do it this way?
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: So I respect that I'm not gonna be right all
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: the time. I'm just gonna give you whatever knowledge and wisdom.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: I guy, If you come back and you tell me
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: this is how you want to rock, you know, I'm
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: gonna see two it that we can get to you
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: the best results. But at least you're thinking and you planning.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: And that's what I learned, even by being in the
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: streets and being around older cats, it can tell you everything.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, But it's up to you
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: to take the information that they give you and make
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: it work for you. And he made it work for him.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: And whoever thought from Georgia or put the cat all
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: the way from the West coat off? And he said
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: some last night at the showed. I was just like
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: in my mind was like wow, he was like he
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: the only from the West that made it without dre. Yeah. Yeah,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: though you feel what I'm saying. What that tell you
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: to be series? It's coming out? How they hit you up?
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: Are you involved in anywhere? I'm not? Well, well, I
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: suppose with fifty Like I said, man, I just respect
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: the fact that my man's finally getting some light on
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: what he really wanted. And you know, and look, man,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: you gotta respect you know, fifties lane right now, that's
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: his lane. You know what I'm saying. He understands it,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: he's good at it proving it. So I mean, I
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: think it's a perfect match, you know what I mean
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: as far as me. But you know, I don't know
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: if it's past I'm sleeping good these days. Hey I
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: wake up like, hey, what we're doing today? They took
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: me a while to get to that point, you know
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So I meant down I mean I
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: would love you know, I would love to put music
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: in it, you know what I'm saying. I would love
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: to get some insight. You know. I'm sure there's gonna
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: be a g type of character. I mean, I don't know,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be. I mean, it's a whole story,
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: Like you realize that being was created way long involved,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, some quite shy gonna start
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: with the whole Detroit error and all this stuff they
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: had going on, then just work their way up, you
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So you missed that time period
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: music clubs? Yeah? Crazy? Yeah? One out the other day.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: I was like, it just ain't the same man. And
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: you know when you walked in like back then, you know,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: it just treated you with so much respect, like a family.
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: I think it was real money back then. As I
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: was watching that b I watched that BMM talk a lot,
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: like every other month I watch it. Why you're right there,
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: you know a lot of money wouldn't make a lady
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: treat you like your family. Baby? What's uping going on?
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: I never expected that, But I've had the buck and
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: I've seen the documentary experienced one like just how really
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: you should have been there in Atlanta. Atlanta wasn't New
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: York too. They came, they did everywhere we did. I
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: remember we came and did the Atlanta versus New York
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: and sues running who was running? Yeah? What do you mean?
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: We brought the most money. What you talk about Shorty Red?
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: So Shorty Red gonna be on the Yeah trap three definitely.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: He had a couple joints and it was a collective. Man.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: That was my whole thing, just like putting the game
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: back together, man, and really just I want of them cats,
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: like I don't like to follow trends or wide waves
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: or I'd like to create and people don't know. Like
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: we started creating you know this music and the sound
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: that y'all love in the basement. We didn't even have
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: a studio, and you know, the first album did two million,
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And it's just like with this,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: it was like I wanted to create. I don't want
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: to go get beats. Whoever's hot, come on, man, like
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: this me and just this whole thing. And it's just like, man,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: everybody in their bag, from Shorty Red to d Rich
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: to Uh, I mean everybody that really produced and it
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: was like it's collectively you know, I knew you hit
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: this all the time, but collectively for me, one of
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: my best bodies at work. And you already know I
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: went from to touch that Tropic Documents, right. I didn't
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: want to be when y'all fall out at because I
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: always wonder about it, like like TI and two, Like yeah,
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: money fame came fast, you know what I'm saying, really fast,
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: and I got busy and everybody just didn't understand that.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: It was like I was out of town. I was
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: always gone. You know, you don't see me to see
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: me on TV, and you know, it was just like
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: it was fast. But you know, that was my dream
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: to get up out of my situation and do this.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: So it's kind of hard, you know, when you got
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: attached to a producer, you know what I'm saying, because
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: they want to be a part of that. And had
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: I known that's what how I would have been. You know,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: I didn't know about bringing studio buses on the road
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: still working. I was just trying to get by the
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: ladder for with the jail, so you know what I'm saying.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: So now you know twenty twenty hind sight, you know,
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: the people I deal with. That's why I just you know,

• 37:06
  Speaker 1: the street. We met through one of his homies named
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: Danny Boy from the West Side, but I don't think
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: a lot of people knew that, you know, how important
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: he was to the city. He was a staple in
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: the community because he was the West Side dude that
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: really wasn't scared And people don't even realize, like he
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: really brought snap music to the world with fat Ball
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: and all the man and all that, and that was him.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: That was the side of the town. There was a thing, um,
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: you know, one of the best records I've ever been on,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: you know, had something to do with him. You're too
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: o and one of my favorite favorite joints and that
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: came from the camp and what he was doing. I
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: watched him over the years and I see him grow up,
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, from just being a street
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: camp and I just see how he treated his kids
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: and how I treat the people around, and it just
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: be sad to see your homeboys. That's why I only
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: had no problem telling I love you, be safe. But
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: I see because you never know, you know what I say.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: People have falling off every day, But one thing I
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: do love, you know the same thing with him fresh
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: and do you know on them, it's just like, you know,
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: you could take us out, but you can't take a
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: music away. That's our lifeline. That's gonna live forever. And
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: I was somewhere and they was playing one of his songs, Foolish,
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: and I was like, it's hard, you know what I mean?

  Speaker 1: you think about how you want to go out? Man,
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: that's not something you want to think about it, but
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: you know it's all that's it. But no, but no,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: you're right though, because because I do, I do think
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: about that, and you know, even going forward, like, I
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: always look at things real, even the people I deal with,
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: because I learned that when I was locked up, I
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: didn't see a lot of people running to help me,
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: but always help everybody else. But now when I'm dealing
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: with people, I'm talking to him, only give them this
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: a little bit of me, you know what I'm saying.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: I might have a few words, I don't give them
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: who I really am. That's how I feel like. You
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: somebody's going to really go out of your way to
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: carry the church for my legacy, you know what I'm saying,
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: because that's why I'm doing this. I'm gonna do this
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: so I can't no more. But when it's all setting done,
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: you saw what happened with Big Giant and Brooklyn Party, right,
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: it was real like and it's just like because that's
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: because you have somebody like puffing Kim and all these
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: people that's really gonna carry his legacy because they knew
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: where he meant faith. And also like even with me now,
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: it's like, you know, I'm very particular the people I
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: live around because it's like, you know, I don't want
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: you to just be around to be around because it's
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: fun now, because if it ain't, you're gonna be the one,
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: you know, champion me and holding that torch. But by
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: the way, just so you know, if it needs to
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: be lit in the ladder, I'm just want to go
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: and listen. I'm gonna get them all donna break, bringing
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: freaking it back. It's back and the back bringing business
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: and your lamb bowl, your ferraris out. We're gonna sell baby,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: everybody throwing money and we're gonna have a good time.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: And that's how I feel because that's what I feel
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: like I brought to the world, like hope chains and
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: it's just like I'm telling somebody this man and it's
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: sad to say. When Muhammad Ali died, I went to
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: visit his house, the house he was raised in, and
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: I get there, this's this white guy in there in Kentucky.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, white guy in there, and he's charging people
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: for t shirts and tours and and you know, and nobody.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: I would never disrespect the family, but it just made
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: me think, like, was it set up for legacy? Because
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: he was amazing person. The same thing you think about
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: Marla the King that center they got over there, and
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: how much stress it must be on his daughter to
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: keep water in that pool for the kids and swimming.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: It's like it has to be set up for legacy,
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And that's what I feel like.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: You know, us, as you know black men and entrepreneurs,
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: we gotta think after the fact and after we're going
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: to keep this thing going because you can't leave your
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: kids with this stressing say, you can't leave your kids
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: with this earned him? This is like because you are great,
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: but when you're gone, you're going You know what I'm saying,
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: No to me, Like you might need to write bury
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: me a geepart too, because I don't want to be buried. No.
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: Not no ball mains either that ball mains either. Man.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: I want to talk about some of the things that
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: you invested. You invested in early, whether it was liquor,
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: whether it was a clothing line better in the Nascal
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: did it actually? Did it hit right right? Now? Now,
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: what's some of the what's some of the things that
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: you passed up that you wish you didn't pass up? Oh? Man, wow,
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: that's a gool. You know a lot of properties, like
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: like now, I probably got half Atlanta, you know what
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: I mean. But it was probably situations that I felt
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: like when I heard how long it takes to make
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: the money back, that I kind of scared me. You
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: started talking like ten years. I'm like, I don't even
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: know if I got to you. I need my money now.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: I so much real estate. They said, you're on like
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: a lot of downtown houses. I mean, just you know,
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: I'm from my kids, from my daughters, just got my
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: my daughter just wanted the fries restaurants in Atlanta just
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: opened up in Buckhead. But it's just like, oh is
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: your daughter she's too he just remember when he had
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: it on Instagram? Oh and she too it on a restaurant.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: Maybe I'm no, because that's something that she will always have.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Passion pad for the Knicks, And it feels tangible. I
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: think real estate just feels tangible, like you can see it,
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: you can make money from it, right, Well, what it is,
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: I used to be a hustler, you know, hus other things.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: It's the same thing. Like you wouldn't even know that
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: about me because I don't kick it like that. I mean,
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: that'd be my you know that me feeling like I'm
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: still hiding money on my match everybody, anybody that you know.
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna tell nobody about it. Did The
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: most valuable thing of black man can only in America
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: is laying right. He wasn't lying. And plus good for
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: your comment too, because it kind of like you're cleaning

• 42:43

• 42:49
  Speaker 1: but I mean, but then it makes you, you know,
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: even before um, you know, when you deal with city
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: officials and politicians a real conversation. Now you can't talk
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: to me like I'm a rapper. Has Hillary reached out? Absolutely?
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: My female giveaways, but push your tea you can go

• 43:28
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it real. I really don't even like
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: to talk about my that's my that's my everything. I'm
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: just not for the foolery no more. And I refuse
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: to be tricked off the streets and out of my position,
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: Like I got. Somebody really depends on me. It's really
• 43:40

• 44:00
  Speaker 1: it literally? What would say? Baby? Okay, okay, I don't worry,
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: get that too minute. Oh yeah, you will just talk
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: crazy to be your daughters say something. The album comes
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: out October, To Go with g D drops out. You
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: see the evolution because you came along with Because I
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: look at the documentary. You see that that map yo.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: One day he watched the documentary on back maybe back.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: He was like, you real lucky, right, you're right. I
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: was like, man, but yeah, you're right though. All right,
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: it's a breakfast club, the breakfast club Morning. Everybody is
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: DJ M de Angela Ye, Charlemagne the guy. We are
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: the breakfast club. Hey, Hey, hey, listen, man, I still
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: this Kanye wasn't Donald Trump. The situation is interesting because
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: we know Kanye supports Donald Trump, so it's not as
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: surprise that they met with each other. But even if
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: it's people that you love and respect who don't don't
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: support Trump, shouldn't they still be talking to him? Because
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: he is about to be the leader of the free world? Like,
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: isn't that this thing called democracy? So even if we
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: don't like the president that's in the White House, shouldn't
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: we still hold him accountable for the things that happened
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: in America. So if we get a chance to communicate
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: with him, shouldn't we take it? Yes, shouldn't we if
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: we're talking about the issues that go on in America? Like,
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: I don't understand this whole mentality of just pushing things
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: to the side that if we could talk to him,
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: what you want to you said, No, No, I wouldn't
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: have anything of substance to say to him. Now, if
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: I got the opportunity to engage with him, I would
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: definitely bring my og. I'd bring like Donald Minister Little
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: for Aco and or you know, Michael Eric Dyson or
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: somebody who could like provide some real substance to the conversation,
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: because I don't know what I'm talking about and Donald
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: Trump don't know what he talking about when it comes
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: to politics, So what's the point was talking to each other? True?
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: You understand what I'm saying, so I just don't. I
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: just don't get this whole. Let's not engage and have
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: conversation and dialogue people. I choose the diplomacy over division
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: any day. But you said, you just said you wouldn't
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: go unless you but the Honor Minister Lewis, and I
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: explained why. I know, but I think you should still
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: do it if you're encouraging people, if I have something
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: to add to the conversation, Like when I talk to Tommy,
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: I had something to add to the conversation. I knew
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: what I wanted to talk to Tommy about. I wouldn't
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: know where to begin with Donald Trump other than I
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: don't like you. And that's not a good Yes, that's
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: not a good conversation, but that's not that's a pointless conversation. Okay,
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: don't like you. I don't know why I'm here. What
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: do we got to talk about? Though? I'd rather bring
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: somebody who has something to actually talk about, then maybe
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: it can seep into his head. Trump knows people don't
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: like him, so that you need you need to have
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: more than that when you sit with him. Oh, I
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: don't like you, okay, And what's that gonna do for us? Now?
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: With both Americans? I run the country anyway, So what
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: I'd rather bring somebody that could talk to some substance
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: to him. It's time for Donkey of the day Democrat.
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: So being Donkey of the day is a little bit
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: of a mixed so like a the day. Now I've

• 47:38
  Speaker 1: pick up seven to ten grand a show for the
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: rest of his life in any small town USA. Not,
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: you don't think so? If he Okay, I don't know
• 47:46

• 47:58
  Speaker 1: Scruggle Love. It's actually it's actually I record. Okay, it's
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: about being in love and you're going through the struggle. Okay,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: but that poor and disenfranchise passion. Let's play a little
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: bit of let's sing your little game. Let's strick into
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: the screening and kick them all out like on b
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: Let's put the Chinese, a few trees, hit a pottle
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: on loving for your part. Okay, that's got a too
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: thick put your buttle pone hocket, bring your body feel
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: post me, schooming, put the towel on the door, listening doors.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: Sapers don't know what we do well, the record deal,
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: the food call steals, the stages and fashion. I don't
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: want to shut the last it was small chicken reeds
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: and right okay, and now we got move and we
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: got the trees wet. It's like when I struggle. I
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: really missed that struggle, all right, dropping struggles like that record,
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: I miss the struggle record kind of dope, talking about
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: how his relationships were before he got money, before he
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: got the record deal on the love and I am
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: highly amused by Jaheim said he misses the struggle love
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: because yesterday on social media, Jaheem displayed a headstyle that
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: looks like someone still going through the struggle, but they
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: came up on a little money. All right, Jaheim has
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: a headstyle that looks like he just got his tax
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: return back, like he just took the bobby pins out,
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: like he just got his head laid. And he is
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: in bed with the silk bonnet on. If you don't
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: got a silk bonnet on. He slept with his hand
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: on his neck to not let his head touch the pillow.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you please go to his Twitter, it's official
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: Jaheem and look at what this young man has on
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: his head. Okay, Johem looks like he sat down and
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: got his wig did for the black hair ex bot.
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: He got a press in curl, but he don't have
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: enough hair for a press in curl. But nevertheless, somebody
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: ran a hot comb through it. I say all the time,
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: you can't really trust the black woman who's never been
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: burned by a hotcomb. So It's good to know, Jaheem,
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: that you are a trustworthy individual. Now, the reason Jaheem
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: is getting dunkey in the day is not because of
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: his headstyle. He's a grown ass man. He can wear
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: his hair however he wants, even though I should give
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: him donkey for getting the Preston curl when his hair
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: isn't long enough for a prest and crowl. When your
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: hair that short, you can't go chasing Preston curls. You
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: gotta stick to the Hollyberry pixie cuts and free to
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: gass finger waves that she used to. Okay, but the
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: reason he is getting dunkey today is because he's been
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: going back and forth with a bunch of people, probably
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: eighty percent kids, about his hair on social media. Jaheem,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: you can't win that, bro. You're thirty eight years old
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: and you're showing your age by going back and forth
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: on social media with all these kids. It's one against
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: millions on social media, and none of your clapbacks are funny. Bro,
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: They're not gonna make the shade room. Okay. He called
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: one girl Jasmine Sullivan. He called another girl miss piggy
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: ass Face. He told another girl everything here is fake
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: after posting her picture top to bottom, they got on
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: a new millennium butt injection costume with Space Shuttle on ahead,
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: f out of here, trash just fart on all Johhem's jokes.
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: He even released a statement via Instagram. Can we hear
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: with Jaheem had to save your Instagram? Can't win arguing
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: with stupid ass ignorant ass smother. I'm glad you know.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: I don't do what I do to please you. I
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: do for me. I feel good about it. I like it.
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: It's me, not for you. All right. Way about what
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: your mother got under her head? Worry about what you
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: girl got under her head. This is my real here.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: You know I can cut this, I can curl it,
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: I can do what the hell I want to do
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: to it. It's bunds, it's real. But don't worry about me,
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: worry about you. You know I'm working on me, work
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: on yourself. I leave it, joh my low Jhem. If
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: you know you can't win, then stop. All right. You
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: said all that, but you're still going back and forth
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: with these kids. If you want to wear your head
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: like that, do you boom? All right? Do you? It's fine?
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: Sing some of the smooth sounds of the Hamletones for
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: the brother. You are the donkey o the d you
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: the dokey he all right, you're about to catch Jahim
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: at all the natural hair exposts and they had you
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: had not such a great situation with Jaheim. Right, wasn't
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: there some incident for me? It wasn't with you, It
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: was with Swahim. Do sound like a scoring black woman? Though?
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: He sound like a black woman who hasn't been put
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: through it by all types of black men. And now
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: she only wanted date white women. He I mean white men,
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: Jaheem said, I am working on me. Jim. Let Jaheim
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: mind his business in New Brunswick. He got his nice
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: natural preston curl popping, he got salon seated the table playing,
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: He got his coconut oils and his shape butter let
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: Jiheem do him boat. Okay? Is this the new movement?
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: These hair dues for men? It was looking like that.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: It's kind of a new movement. Johloman is kind of
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: jealous because he ain't got no heir. He can't do it.
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: He can't do it. You know you want a little
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: I could have a wig made for you. Yeah, if
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: I grew up in the Malcolm X. There only people
• 53:12

  Speaker 1: than a lot of these guys. Absolutely change him down.
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: He changed it up a lot too, because usually we

  Speaker 1: used to make fun of Calid day. We used to say,
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: Calid single is the same record remixed ten tells first time.
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: It was not like that at all, Caliga Ja. None
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: of these records sound like DJ Calid record, not at
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: all the typical Calid. Well. You know, I just every
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: album and every anthem I put out. You know, it's
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: just a vibe. It's just the moment that you know
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: we're walking in. You know, when I made I Got
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: the Keys, I'm saying me in future was in the studio.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: We was vibing. You know, we record like four or
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: five ruggets at night, but see I Got the Keys
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: was basically inspired by what's going on in my life,
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: you know, with the cloth talking major Baggler, secure the bag.
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: So it was just a natural vibe and it was
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: in the studio and when I presented it the Jigga,
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: he loved it, you know what I'm saying. And he
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: immediately just came with them bars. What Jigga does best,
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. One of the best in
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: the game. And to get him in the video, to
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: me that I was not only a huge accomplishment, but
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: big for the game, you know what I'm saying, because
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: he barely shoots videos for himself. You know, Strip Club
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: Coach is so big now. And I haven't had a
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: record that we played from Jay Z and the Strip
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: Club in the least seventy eight years. No man, for me,
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: you know, I got it, That's true. And what was that?
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: But we really I don't think it's been that long, man,
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: Niccarter when it was mc McCarter, maybe thirteen, two thirteen,
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: maybe the wild See this record is an anthem in
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: the club like Jay is in the Strip Clan. And
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: I loved that because I'm such a Jay fan. Yeah,
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: and I played Jay ready, so it felt good. So
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: how did you get him on that record? That that beat,
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: that bounce? How did you get him on that? And
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: we had some cloth talk. I went to the studio
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: and I played him the record with the hook what
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, and I was like, man, I would love
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: to get you on this record. And I played it
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: for him, and right when I played it for him,
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: kind of glanced and looked at him and he was
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: bobbing his head. The instrumental Park came on, I already
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: seen him starting rapping in his head, so I was like,
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: oh man, he liked it, you know what I'm saying.
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: And I can tell he was already catching a VIBEO. Yeah,
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: he right in the head and I've seen him bounce
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: and he's like, Yo, leave this for me. You know
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And I'm like, of course, Sam, you
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So you know. And then the
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: next day he hit me, I got it done. I'm
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: ready where you at Come see me in the studio.
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: Boom we cut the record. I told Jigga, it doesn't
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: sound like it, but I said, I feel like I
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: got the keys. Made me feel like when I first
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: heard Dirt off my Shoulders because you remember when Dirt
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: off my Shoulders came out, it was a different bounce
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: at that time, no timbo with them drums, and you know,
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: Jigger was going bad on there. So I felt like me,
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: Future and Jigga on the record with that bounce made
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: me feel and then him spitting flames, you know, he
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: talking cloth on there like you know, my bad different
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: My wife beyond say like, you know it's all true.
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: You know, That's why I love listening to you know, Jigger,
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: that's Jigga. We always want to hear jay Z. You
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. We always want to get a
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: jay Z album. You know what I'm saying. For us
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: to get a collabo with jay Z, Future and Kalid
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: and shoot a video, I think not only is important
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: for me that which I'm very grateful for, important for
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: the game. You know what I'm saying, the culture. And
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: I think that video with all the rappers and everybody

  Speaker 1: need to switch up your working hold on, hold up,
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: say this is this is the key. I use the
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: ecliptical to feel good. Of course, lose some weight. Okay,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: I'm saying no, I want to be clear. I'm happy
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: the way I am. I always have been. I used
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: to be three hundred pounds. I'm two hundred and sixty
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: pounds now. Two years ago. I was at two forty something.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: When I was you know, I wanted, like in a
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: serious moment, so I did go to a point that
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: I want to get back to um. But I use
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: that really to steal with everyday life meaning doesn't feel good.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: It makes me smile. You know, when you work out,
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: it makes you smile, feel good energy, and deal with
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: stress better. Of course, I want to lose pounds back
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: at the same time as I'm more cautious about everything
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: I do in life when it comes down and eating
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: and working out. Now, So when I eat, it's like
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: I eat when I'm at home with my chef. I
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: got gluten free. She cooked everything gluten free, and I
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: feel the chef d I feel the difference. You know
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. When I'm on the road, I'll be
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: messing up. But when I mess up, I'm cautious, say, man,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: I feel guilty, and I go by the next day
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: eat good. So at least I'm cautious of doing things.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, so it's your eating habits, that's why. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna cut yeah, I'm saying. And then you know,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: I did a twenty two day nutrition and I lost
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: a lot of weight when I did that, the vegan thing,
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: and now it made me look at things different. So
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: now if I want to be nine percent vegan and
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: then do eat little fish and chicken, it's a vibe.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: So I recommend everybody try the twenty two day nutrition
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: because it really makes you lose weight but at the
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: same time feel good, you know I'm saying. And then
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: after you accomplished that mission, you're gonna be so cautious,
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: and it's on you. Do you want to continue to be?
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: This is secure the baggar right you got, and you
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: gotta balance it out, like if you do what you're
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: trying being I'm so serious. This ain't no like what
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. Even if you don't want to live one
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: hundred percent vegan life, after that, at least you'll be cautious.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: When you eat crazy, you might be half vegan. Now
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm saying, like you know, once in a while, salad.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, whatever veggie Burger, and I'm saying,
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: you got a silk almond milk commercially. I love almond
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: milk and commercial. That's what really blue, That's what really
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: messed me up. I said, I can't here any more.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: I said, calid got a silk almond milk commercial. I've
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: always had silk almond milk in my house. My girl
• 1:03:14

• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: you see me. If I do a commercial or indoors,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: I have to promote some of my love. And my

  Speaker 1: It teased everything? Um his trainer, Um, he had him
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: since birth. But you know, you can't play or they
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: had a wire, a real wire. I guess when he
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: was growing up as um as a young lion that
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: he knew that wire, if you touched it, you'd probably
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: do something. So I'm on the chair and the wires
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: like like there, so just in case it. Yeah, he
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: knows mentally you know, if he did cross that line,
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: and then you know, you know, they had a lot
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: of safety theories and all that over there. So we
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: was on point. I always wanted to know with um,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: with Fat Joe and fifty squashing it beat and you're
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: so into too peace And I remember the days when
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: it was just nasty y'all in clubs and it was
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: just discussed. It You ever thoughted your mom or somebody
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: recorded your mom. You know what I'm saying, Like, could
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: you ever be crossed it out. You know, I never
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: thought fat Joe would to be honest with you, you
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, you know, even when I
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: never ever commented on it on a negative point or
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: on a positive point, or any point, I just don't
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: comment on it because when you deal with moms, what
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: I'm saying like, that's like everybody loved the mom. So
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: I don't even really like talk about it because I
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: think it's a waste of energy for me to even
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: talk about it. If I have nothing good or bad
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: to say, why I talk about it? You were saying.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: But with that Joe doing his thing, that's my brother,
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: and I respect every decision he makes. What I'm saying,
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: I respect that to the fullest, and I love peace
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: and unity. I don't have a problem with nobody. That's
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: the answer. I don't have a problem with nobody. The
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: only time I ever have a problem with somebody if
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: you try to physically hurt me, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: So I don't have a problem with nobody. I am
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: about loving peace, So I just keep it moving. Do
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: I need a rock with somebody to not have a
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: problem with No, I don't have to be best friends
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: with nobody. I just stay away from things, and I
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: think people respect that because I don't just be why
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: when I yo, you know, I don't do that. I
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: only put out good energy out there. So my answer
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: is I got love, man. I ain't got no problem
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: with nobody. But at the end of the day is

• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: be like, callid, I give you such a such amount
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: of money just to put this on your snap and

• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: be like, damn, it's a big, big, big bag. I
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: could never sell out because I don't understand that words
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: sell out what I'm saying. I only represent things I
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: love and want to do what I'm saying. Um. Can
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: people make mistakes or I haven't. Okay I'm saying I say,
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: you have to be repair it's in case you make
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: a mistake because you can't act like you know every
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: single thing. But I feel like I do know a lot.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you do too. But at the end of
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: the day is sometimes you know what you might think
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: something is doping, It might not be dope. You know
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Um, But I've been blessed to represent
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: things that I love and usually when I represent something,
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: it's it's a win, you know what I'm saying, And
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: that's the blessing I'm saying, like, you know, like when
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: somebody touched something like it's some people have that touch.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I think with Calida, one
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: thing I respect is as you got more successful, you
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: got better as a person. Yes, you don't see that
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: often usually. Yeah, definitely can successfully act like asses. But
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: in the beginning, I think a lot of people look
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: at Calida as an ass, you know, didn't like them
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: for whatever reason. But I see it as more success
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: he I think until they realized it wasn't. But he
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: got better every everything though, he got better. This as
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: a person. I think it's important. The more you grow,
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: the more wiser and the you know, the more humble
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: you get. Right now in my career, I'm really so grateful,
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: Like when I see y'all because I do remember you
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, how far we go back and
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: disagreements or breaking records and we support each other like
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: we come far, we come far. Look where we're at now,
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: Look where all of us at. Man, you got you're
• 1:10:16

• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: at it, man, Man, God is so great. Why are
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: we gonna dwell on negative vibes, you know what I'm saying,
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: because there's so much negative in the world already. If
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: we don't come together and unify and show love, then
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: we're gonna play ourselves. You know. I'm saying like love
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: is the answer, Love is the key, and love is
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: so powerful. You know. That's why they don't want us
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 1: to love. They don't want us to love. They don't
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: want me and envying you to like each other. They
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: want me and you to beat right now because you're
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: known to beat with somebody on radio. I'm not gonna
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: beat with you, No, I'm I'm just saying that's the
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: way they put an energy out, and that's what they're
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: gonna predict. I'm not following for no trap. I'm not
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: ten years old, I'm not sixteen, I'm not seventeen. I'm
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: a grown man. I gotta act like a grown man
• 1:11:08

• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: an all white Nah. I ain't beefing with nobody. I
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: ain't got time to be for nobody. What I'm saying,
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: hard point is gratitude, very important man, because you gotta
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: have certain morals and certain respects and certain codes in
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: your life. And once you get all that, people are
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: gonna respect you. Like if I respect you, you're gonna
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: respect me back. And if you don't respect me, you're
• 1:11:33

• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: my blessings is gonna be known where you have to
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: respect me. What I'm saying at the end of the
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: day is the more blessings you give, the more blessing
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: you give back. It's very simple. Man. Put out that

• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: out that negative vibe, you're gonna get that negative vibe,
• 1:11:52

• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: they say they say we couldn't do it, you know,
• 1:12:33

• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: they don't want you to prosper. Like you know what
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: I'm saying progress And we live in proof that we're
• 1:12:41

• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: It's very rare that you get clearances. It was such
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: inspiration to get it clear because I've been hearing that
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: people try to sample that before and they get denied.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 1: When we sampled the records, they already told me like
