For All The Dogs Review & Why J. Cole is THE GOAT - #67 · The Grounded Show

0:03
Hey, man, I'm not gonna lie, bro. It's been a hell
0:07
of a couple of weeks for me, just busyness and stuffing. Nothing bad,
0:10
nothing worth talking about. But it definitely feels good to be on the
0:15
ground to show with the boys back in the stew the audio. It felt
0:23
like I didn't even belong the last two weeks. Yeah. The funniest thing
0:27
is you had some gems that last week and I and when I posted them
0:31
in my head when I was posting on my New Year. Is gonna be
0:35
like mad that it had to be that week that you wasn't at your spot
0:40
tight. It's all good. That's what we had to do what we gotta
0:43
do to keep this thing going. Yes, sir man, I want to
0:47
hit on these news topics pretty quick, man, because I feel like today's
0:50
gonna be a loaded show man with the I don't know what the title is
0:54
yet, but I'm pretty sure that the title of the show already has people
0:58
waiting for this convo. So let me get into it right. Oh wait,
1:03
it's kind of going off of the Ice Spice news last week. I
1:07
just thought this was interesting and it kind of brings another conversation that we never
1:11
even really brought up as far as this person. But I saw in the
1:15
news that Lotto and Christina Aguilera have been kind of like teasing like a collaboration
1:22
that they're going to drop because they've started, you know, uh, exchanging,
1:26
you know, tweets and stuff like that. So you know how it
1:30
is nowadays, it's all kind of like choreographed, you know that that what's
1:34
coming next becausout exactly exactly you I couldn't have said it better myself, but
1:42
uh, you know, Lotto had that real big joint with Maria Carey where
1:46
she had the sample first and the remix, you know what I mean.
1:49
She's another one that you know, is on that trajectory like ice Spice,
1:53
and she's quietly like, you know, maybe even doing crazier stuff than ice
1:59
spice, because like she got that collaboration with that BTS dude, Like I
2:02
said, she got the Mari Carrey joint. So you know, she's another
2:07
one that to kind of keep your eye on. And what do you think
2:09
about the fact that she might be doing to collab with Christina Aguilera. Well,
2:15
you know you just said that, and I was like, Okay,
2:17
I didn't know about this. I kind of just looked it up real quick
2:21
and they just dropped a commercial or it looks like as in like ten hours
2:25
ago. So, like you said, Joe, everything's a rollout, so
2:30
they could be working on something. I mean, I actually I'm literally playing
2:34
right now. I'm mute because I'm I'm talking to y'all. But you know,
2:38
this could be what they were hitting at, you know what I'm saying,
2:40
because it's definitely like music related. It looks like they aim there like
2:44
a music video, so this could have been what they were hitting at.
2:46
And I think, Joe, you hit the nail on the head with Everything's
2:50
a rollout. Yeah. Yeah, I don't think Chrislera still holds that much
2:59
weight. I mean, she's still seeing that Aguilera. But I said,
3:02
don't think I think the impactful to today's generation. She does do a lot
3:09
of network TV stuff though, so she does have a big presence still on
3:15
the TV side of things. I wonder if they do end up doing like
3:19
a music thing, I wonder how that'll translate, going off of what you
3:22
said, Joe, because that does I didn't think about that before that.
3:24
Although Christina Aguilera is still real big right now, it's really more for like
3:30
I said, network TV stuff, hosting shows and things like that, So
3:34
it is it will be interesting to see how that kind of shapes out.
3:38
But I will say just from go ahead, John, I'm sorry, No,
3:40
it's still success either way. Yeah, I was just gonna say,
3:44
I will say from my standpoint, you know, it's kind of hard to
3:47
know what's when it comes to music side of it, what is actually intentionally
3:54
supposed to be a big record or what's supposed to be a cloud chasing situation
4:00
nowadays, you know what I'm saying. So I guess until we see or
4:03
see how it plays out, I can't. I really don't have an opinion
4:06
on it because, like you said, Joe, it's Christina Aguilera. She
4:10
still sings her ass off, But you know, what is it really?
4:15
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, what is it real? Kind of kind of
4:16
going off with you said, Quincy, and I didn't really think about it
4:19
from that aspect. But we're in a big collaborative era, you know what
4:24
I'm saying, Like that those collaborations are starting to be like what shows like
4:30
as being successful, Like when you talk about Travis Scott with all the brands
4:33
that he collaborates with you know, these big artists having these crossover collabs and
4:39
how much attention those are getting collab albums, which is something that never really
4:44
happened in hip hop. But then all of a sudden, you know,
4:46
starting at like twenty sixteen ish, like you just saw a whole bunch of
4:49
big artists doing collab albums. Like you're like, what the heck, Like
4:53
a whole bunch of people just out of know where. Hey, I'm doing
4:55
a collab. You do this guy, future guy one hundred collab albums.
4:59
You know what I'm saying. It's like Bruno Mars and I started a whole
5:02
group, whole exactly, a whole collaboration Grammy Award winning thing, you know
5:06
what I'm saying, Like a residency out here in Vegas. Still, Yeah,
5:11
it's definitely. It's definitely doing a lot right now as far as like
5:15
people doing collaborations and for whatever reasons, is holding people's attention. You know,
5:21
another thing that I had seen in the news that it's just more to
5:25
touch on it quickly. It is not really like news. But I really
5:28
enjoyed his response and kind of like the energy behind this. But offset gave
5:33
an update to you know, his relationship with Quavo. On a breakfast club
5:38
interview, they asked him about it and everything. You know, everybody's been
5:41
kind of wondering how they've been ever since the passing the Takeoff Rest in peace.
5:45
But you know, he just kind of answered it very simply direct quote,
5:49
that's my brother at the end of the day. And the next thing
5:53
he said was, but we're good though we were just with each other in
5:56
Paris, we'd be talking because we'd be going through a little emotions and with
6:00
this shit, and it don't be for the public. That's the thing.
6:02
When it's like this, everything ain't for the public to be Key King and
6:05
everybody want us to be. But we still got to move in our own
6:09
worlds. But it's all love. At the end of the day, we
6:12
lost a brother. We can't rock out basically talking about as far as Migos
6:18
as far you know, from his point of view, it's dead because the
6:23
Takeoff was the life force behind Egos, you know. But aside from the
6:27
music side all that, I really enjoy the fact that he basically said,
6:30
you know, we've mended our situation where we're dealing. You know, we're
6:34
even helping each other through the trauma and everything. But it don't got to
6:39
be out there. They don't got to be crying on a you know,
6:42
on an interview with a big personality, or you know, be on sixty
6:46
minutes talking about how they feel and stuff. I really enjoy the idea that
6:49
even though they're both superstars, they can both easily capitalize on their grieving process
6:55
and make millions, like literally millions, I'm not exaggerating. You know,
6:59
there's a lot of avenues they can go with this, whether it be a
7:01
joint album, whether it be a speaking tour, whether it be a book,
7:05
whether it be interviews. They literally could capitalize off this anyway they want
7:10
to, and they still might, who knows, but at least for now
7:15
they're looking at it like, hey, this is a real situation. We're
7:16
gonna deal with it together as family, as men, as people, and
7:20
then you know, see where it goes from there. I respect that.
7:26
I definitely respect. And it's so funny you mentioned that because I literally was
7:30
kind of like saying something earlier in regards to I'm sure y'all have seen it,
7:35
because like, every time I open my phone, I see the Jada
7:39
Pinkett situation and her announcing that her and Will have been separated for seven years?
7:45
Why announce it now? Who knows? I don't understand, you know
7:47
what I'm saying makes no sense to me. And then also the part about
7:53
her and Chris Rock and apparently Chris Rock had expressed interest in her, and
7:57
I'm just it's just like it almost seems like every opportunity, you know what
8:00
I'm saying, she takes to like share an aspect of the relationship that's like
8:05
unnecessary, you know what I'm saying, And it's like going to your point.
8:07
I respect, you know what I'm saying, him saying, like,
8:11
hey, not everything is for the public, you know what I mean.
8:13
Yeah, It's funny, man, because from when they started that show that
8:18
they did Jada Pinkett and her mom and stuff, you already knew what was
8:24
coming. Bro. If you're gonna just be airing out all your deepest feelings
8:26
every week, like regardless, bruh, everybody's human. None of US's situation
8:33
looks any better than Jada and Wills. Like you know what I'm saying.
8:35
We can all pretend like it, but everybody has their things too, you
8:37
know what I'm saying, but the difference is everybody ain't putting it out there,
8:41
and it kind of just goes to that idea where it's like from one
8:46
angle, you're trying to, you know, ask for people not to be
8:50
in your stuff, but then you're volunteering this information. You're on a show
8:54
where you're just talking about all behind the scenes stuff all the time. You
8:58
know, once you now you can't just stop and choose. Okay, and
9:01
I'm gonna stop here, like, nah, bro, you already open the
9:03
flood again. Yah. Yeah. Most people see that you're that vulnerable and
9:09
that open, they're gonna treat you just like that. They're invested at that
9:13
point, you know what I'm saying. They're trying to get the return on
9:16
the investment. They want the story the right thing pieces all right, And
9:22
the last little piece of news I got, which leads perfectly into today's conversation,
9:30
Drake seemingly ends Grammy boycott as her loss submitted for consideration. I found
9:37
this news very funny, hilarious with how many stands Drake has taken against the
9:43
Grammys and speeches and posts and things that he said, just talking about not
9:48
looking for validation and he's not gonna whatever. Now he submitted his album with
9:56
twenty one Savage for Grammy consideration, y'all think of that they might be doing
10:03
the betwenty one or using that. Yeah. I mean, as much as
10:13
I feel like everyone, not everyone, most people respect Drake as an artist,
10:16
I feel like everybody can commonly and easily agree that that Drake doesn't really
10:24
have a strong stance. You know what I'm saying. He kind of goes
10:30
with the flow of what's current. He goes with the flow of with what's
10:33
gonna work. You know what I'm saying. We can all easily say that,
10:37
you know what I'm saying, whether you agree or don't agree, It's
10:39
like the evidence is there, so you know, to carry that from a
10:43
music standpoint into what he stands on, I mean, I'm not very surprised.
10:50
Let's just say that. Yeah, definitely, Drake. Drake is a
10:54
guy that for me, as far as a music fan, I've been almost
11:00
always enjoy all of his singing, like pretty much if he's dropping some singing
11:05
joints, his ear and taste for R and B and his execution of R
11:13
and B music. I love the way Drake does R and b A lot
11:18
of people are the opposite. They don't like when Drake sings. They don't
11:20
like the singiness of Drake. I'm the complete like that. Like we talked
11:24
about before, Bro, that honestly never Mind album. That's like the only
11:28
Drake album that I rock with, and you know it's because he's singing on
11:33
it. And Drake Drake has always been a funny character to me because he's
11:43
you know, he's a character, you know. Like For me, hip
11:46
hop is a thing where I enjoy more the raw, authenticness of it.
11:50
I like hearing a person's story through their eyes, you know what I'm saying.
11:54
I don't like hearing a caricature. I don't like gangster music just for
12:01
the sake of it being gangster. I like gangster music when you can tell
12:05
this guy I've been through some stuff and he's coming out of the trenches transitioning
12:09
into this rap thing, trying to do something better, you know what I'm
12:11
saying. Like that's the energy I like behind hip hop. This I'm rapping
12:18
good because I can rap good thing. It's never worked for me as a
12:22
listener. If I just hear you rapping and I can just tell all you're
12:26
doing is just rapping. No connection for me, That's just how I am
12:31
a rap. Now that leads into for all the Dogs Race new album,
12:39
it's been getting destroyed on all the blogs and interviews and all that stuff.
12:45
Myself, I don't feed into any of that. I'll just listen to the
12:50
music and see what it is and listen to it for what it is and
12:54
that but for the sake of this conversation. I don't know why I had
12:58
this idea, but I told myself, you know what, I'm not even
13:01
gonna listen to anything on this album at all. My original intention was to
13:07
listen to the j Cole and Drake's song to just go off of that into
13:11
our next topic, which we'll introduce later. But I thought about it after
13:16
I'm like, you know what, I'm not gonna listen to none of it
13:18
at all. I'm gonna hear what you guys have to say about it.
13:22
I'm gonna internalize this conversation and then go listen to it and then give my
13:26
thoughts on it, because originally I wouldn't even check it out period to you
13:33
know, one hundred percent. If I if I'm already hearing the vibe of
13:39
the album, and I already don't like Drake. It's not even gonna be
13:43
a listen for me. But I'm gonna listen to what we talk about,
13:46
and I'm gonna attack the album from like a more like like a research scientific
13:52
mind to see if you know it hits a little different because the song is
13:58
sounding like pretty much how I felt about Drake the whole time, and I
14:03
mean not to song the album, because a lot of the reviews basically are
14:07
mentioning that he's just going to these young type topics, trending kind of topics,
14:15
immature type topics, and people are kind of looking at it from the
14:18
point of view of like, Bro, you're Drake. You don't have to
14:20
keep up. You don't have to do this petty little dissing girls thing like
14:26
what are we what are we doing? Bro? But the funny thing to
14:28
me is that's been Drake from day one. I don't know why people are
14:33
confused or upset or what they were expecting. He called the joint for all
14:37
the dogs. He keeps talking about how people want the old Drake. This
14:41
is Drake, this is what this is. This is the Drake that y'all
14:45
came to know and love. What's the problem now, what do you want?
14:54
You go ahead, Joe, go ahead. No, I think it's
14:58
a different Drake, but it is the same veg. As far as he's
15:00
petty, he's always been paid. I mean, the ship down to what's
15:05
going on with Joe Budden shows how petty he is and how hurt he is,
15:09
and he can't control he can't control his emotions or the narrative. This
15:15
one, the narrative has gotten away from him, and he's very good at
15:18
controlling the narrative. Yeah, I liked her lost, I wasn't a crazy
15:24
fan of it. I don't think I ever went back. I couldn't tell
15:26
you what the second half of the album has. Just for the clarification of
15:31
the people listening. You are a big Drake fan, like overall, he's
15:33
Drake fan. Yeah, he's probably either my one or two artist, number
15:37
one and number two for me. I listened to the first half of this
15:43
album not to Slam You out number nine on Friday when it came out on
15:46
the way home from my workout, and then I never went back to it
15:52
again until yesterday. And yesterday I was playing a little Hogwarts Legacy and I
15:54
was like, let me just ride through this whole thing, and I see
15:58
what everybody's saying, you know, for all the dogs. It's crazy.
16:02
When I think about it now, it might just be be like there's so
16:03
many different type of dogs and he has so many different types. Like it
16:07
started off great. I think Virginia Beach was a slapper. I think naming
16:12
it Virginia Beach without talking about pushing T it's like talking about push you T
16:17
without talking about pushy T. You know what I mean. You just named
16:19
the track Virginia Beach again saying thing about him. So for you, Virginia
16:22
Beaches is definitely listen. I think that's number one. I think that's a
16:26
great way to start out this album. I agree, says you guys speak
16:30
on this. Yeah, Virginia Beach is the first song. I think it's
16:33
a great way to start out this album. U then, just just going
16:37
through it, it was all right. You get to like four through six,
16:41
Fear of heightht Daylight, and First Person Shooter, and that's the call.
16:45
So he puts Coal as a six tracks. You think about it like
16:47
a bat in order. So Cole's there for cleanup, cleanup, you know
16:52
what, I'm saying the startup the start of the next line up, like
16:55
setting it off. So I get with that's there, and then I wasn't
16:59
really finish start little go down from there. Then he had that Eat song
17:02
that everybody keeps making the meme about that. He was over excited that he
17:06
had a rap Eats part. And then you go down, and honestly,
17:10
I can't party. I know the Party next Door song was really good because
17:15
it's a party next Door song featuring Drake. I can't remember the other ones.
17:22
Charlotte was the one that he dropped first. I liked the timestamp ones.
17:26
Then name of Dallas four pm m Calabasas one pm in Toronto or whatever.
17:32
Like those time staff raps are his good reps. I just think it
17:37
is. The Bad Bunny song was a bad Bunny song featuring Drake, and
17:45
the rest of them they don't stand out. But so that's your stuff.
17:48
One complete, one and a half complete listens, and I said I couldn't
17:53
get through it the first time, and now I think I can keep getting
17:56
through it. I'm gonna keep giving a few more listens, but I don't
18:00
love the songs. I'm pretty sure he's not making those songs for a fan
18:06
like me, and I think with honesty never mind, and then all of
18:11
shit he does collapse. I think he is an artist who thinks he can
18:17
do any generations type of music or any So do you think it could have
18:22
been so as people may know or if you don't know, he's planning on
18:27
taking a big break from music, you know, just to deal on some
18:30
health issues. Hope, hope that's you know what I'm saying. Hope he
18:33
resolves. Yeah, I wonder what that was he said some us. He
18:37
actually said in an interview that it was some stomach issues he's having, Like
18:41
he wasn't specific about what kind of stomach issues, but it was stomach issues.
18:47
So you know, obviously hopefully he gets better from that. I don't
18:49
wish that on nobody, but I listening to what you're saying kind of reaffirms
18:56
what I kind of thought about the album as far as like the in the
19:00
rollout, as far as how he promoted it. It kind of seems like
19:03
he just knew he was gonna take this break, and he thought to himself,
19:07
let me secure myself another number one before I go off hiatus. You
19:10
know what I'm saying he knows the formula, he knows how to get people
19:12
to talk about the music. So I feel like he just followed the formula
19:15
and not necessarily trying to make a good album, you know what I mean?
19:21
I mean? And to me, I think that's why it's getting disappointing,
19:25
you know what I'm saying, Because it's like, like you said in
19:26
the beginning, Bro, you're Drake, you know what I'm saying, Like
19:30
you can make a great album, Bro, I mean Yo. I was
19:34
basically going home from dinner the other night with my fiance and we was having
19:38
this exact conversation that we're having right now, and we were just talking and
19:44
we basically went back to like some albums that we really enjoyed from Drake.
19:48
And I'm gonna ask you this question, Joe, because I know you're a
19:49
Drake fan, just to this is just a comparison. Can you name Kanye
19:56
West's album in chronological order? Yeah? Okay? Are you able to name
20:04
Drake's album in chronological order? Name Drake's album chronological order? From so Far
20:11
Gone? That's good? Yeah, so Far Gone, So Far Gone?
20:15
Thank me later, take care? Nothing was the same? Views more life
20:25
than Scorpion, but then Scorpions More Life No, no, no, then
20:30
you had if you're reading this, it's too late with future. And then
20:34
after that they came yeah uh, and then it was it doesn't come as
20:42
quick to you as well. No, And I'm making a point certified lover
20:48
boy and her loss no honestly, never minding her loss. And then for
20:52
all dogs, all right, so you skip so so and this isn't you
20:57
know? I did the same thing to robbing and the same thing happened,
21:00
and I'm making a point. So you skipped, I can't. You went
21:04
back and forth a little bit. But it's not an album. Okay,
21:08
that's fine, but the Dark Lane demo tapes is a project. Yeah,
21:15
okay. I don't know if you said Scary Hours too. I don't want
21:18
to be hearing that. I think you said something else out of order.
21:22
But my point being is that from basically More Life till now it becomes a
21:30
blur. You get what I'm saying, and yeah, I think about it
21:34
more there you get what I'm saying. So and the reason and so how
21:37
is it that these are the more recent projects yet though, that's where everything
21:42
starts to blur, and this is why. It's because you're not taking the
21:47
time to put projects together that are memorable. You're just putting stuff together.
21:52
Like before we go too far left with that, let's hear how you thought
21:56
about what you thought about the album, the one from right now? So
21:59
there, it was eight songs on the album out of twenty two that I
22:02
that I saved, and I'm not saying I would actually go back and listen
22:06
to them frequently, but they're saved that I'll put them in rotation. Yeah,
22:11
they'll shuffle eight of the twenty two. And what were the tracks?
22:15
Was there particular reason why those tracks? Like all right, so Virginia Beach
22:19
was dope? Were they not features like Virginia Beaches Dope? No? No
22:23
features Daylight. I really enjoyed that first person shooter feature with j Cole,
22:30
Slim you Out feature with Sizza Bahama's promises. I like tried our best,
22:33
I like what will Pluto do? I like eight Am and Charlotte That's it.
22:38
The rest of them were either like I'll probably never go back to them
22:44
or they just weren't it for me. And to be honest with you,
22:47
even the party next Door joint, that one just sounded like a party next
22:52
door joint. So for me, it wasn't like I would listen to a
22:55
Drake song, you know what I'm saying, Like, so I didn't count
22:57
that one. I've been hearing a lot about that. What would Pluto do?
23:02
A lot of people are saying, like, that's the dope joint.
23:03
I like that one. I like that one a lot. But so those
23:07
are the eight that I like out of the twenty two on the album.
23:11
And I feel like a lot of the ones that I didn't like it was
23:15
because you were trying to do something to keep up when it's like dog.
23:21
The ones that I enjoyed were the ones that sound like you be you you
23:25
know, yeah, they type of fans we are it could be. I
23:32
mean, the younger audience probably truly enjoys it, and that's why Drake is
23:34
so successful. You know what I'm saying. I'm not saying, but there
23:38
is a give and take because if you think about it, we're older fans
23:41
of Drake, and the older fans are the ones that's saying, like,
23:44
Yo, what are you doing? This is my thoughts on it, bro
23:47
Like, because it kind of goes into what y'all both talking about me.
23:51
Although I'm not a Drake fan, I have respect for him as far as
23:56
the level of artist that he is, and I would expect more from him,
24:00
you feel what I'm saying, Like artists, artists do take that lane,
24:03
like and big artists that we like, you know, they're always trying
24:07
to find a way to sound you know, current still be in the times
24:11
and stuff. But I feel like somebody like Drake can, like should be
24:14
able to figure out a way to still be Drake and maybe just bring people
24:18
bring that currentness more to his world, you know what I mean. That's
24:22
the kind of thing I expect from an artist like Drake. I don't expect
24:25
him to be, you know, with the trendy type lyrics and like,
24:29
you know, like Drake has gotten into this thing lately where he went from
24:33
being the guy that created the quotes to being the guy that uses the social
24:38
media quotes and his music, you know what I'm saying, Like he flipped
24:42
it. Like he even like that one song like I've been losing friends and
24:47
finding peace, Like, Bro, that's a meme, bro, you know
24:48
what I'm saying. Like, you like, he's been doing that a lot
24:52
in the recent music where it's like, bro, Like it almost feels like
24:57
you're trying to insult me, you know what I'm saying, Like with this
25:02
like formulate, you know, just blatant, Like, Bro, I see
25:06
what you're doing. It don't work, you know what I'm saying, Like
25:10
it's I expect more from Drake definitely. Yeah. And again I'm speaking as
25:15
somebody that didn't listen to this project yet, so I'm not talking about this
25:18
project in particular, but I'm just talking about from what i've heard here now
25:23
because I always listen to it, you know what I'm saying. It's not
25:26
that I don't like Drake and I'm like, every time he drops, I'm
25:29
like, I'm f this, you know what I'm saying. I always listen
25:32
to it. It might not be right away, but I'll get to a
25:34
point where I'll check it out and be like, all right, what's this
25:37
talking about? And I'll pull a couple of songs, and it's always the
25:41
singing joints, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, I agree, that's
25:47
the barbershop Today they've been playing that album for the whole week, and I
25:52
was like, it's just when you set expectations for one of your favorite artists
25:55
and you don't it don't even come close to that. You just go for
26:00
some type of way. Yeah, that's what it is. Man. It's
26:03
like, like I said, and you kind of said the same thing,
26:07
Like we have a respect for Drake as an artist, you know what I'm
26:10
saying, you as a fan, me as just knowing that he's a great
26:14
artist. You know, you can't take that away from him, regardless of
26:17
you know, some of the music that he drops. But at the end
26:18
of the day, you know, you should hold yourself on a level where
26:22
you hear a body of work that has these kind of themes and the things
26:27
he's talking about, things he's It's like, Bro, you're a grown man
26:32
now, man, Like you know what I'm saying, Like you you a
26:33
grown father with stupid issues. You know what I'm saying. Issues? Fact,
26:38
Come on, bro, like you over here talking about the stuff you're
26:41
talking about, like you know that's what but told them. And that's when
26:45
people is like when people compare him to jay Z and they're doing the jay
26:52
Z thing, Like, bro, Like when z jay Z's another one of
26:53
those legzy artists and they're expecting out of Drake, what they expect out of
26:57
jay Z. But what does jay Z do? He does him, you
27:02
know, and it works every time because he ain't playing the game. He
27:06
is the game, right, you know what I'm saying. And Drake.
27:08
I feel like Drake should have more of that, and I'm like, Yo,
27:11
this is my I hold this game in my hands. Bro. Like
27:14
the honesty, never Mind, Bro, I love that album and I just
27:18
love that he did that. You know, he knew people wanted this album,
27:22
you know what I'm saying, But he said, you know what,
27:26
this the vibe I'm on, I'm doing this. It was way different.
27:29
He was experimenting on it, and it was dope. You know what I'm
27:32
saying. It always comes out better when you actually you know, you're actually
27:36
going in there trying to do something dope. And I can almost guarantee you
27:38
that the mindset behind these two albums was completely different, honestly, never Mind
27:41
and the new one that just dropped, guarantee you he wasn't thinking the same.
27:45
I think when you get to a certain point where, especially as I
27:51
guess you could say a rapper music like rap as a music form is like
27:56
one of the only forms of music where you know, it's just very telling
28:03
of the person, right, you know what I'm saying. Obviously, any
28:04
genre, R and B, country, whatever, you know, you can
28:08
tell a lot about the person, but rap you can tell way more,
28:14
you know. And I feel like when you look at people like jay Z,
28:17
nas j Cole, Kendrick, as they grow as people, you hear
28:22
them grow as artists, and they don't typically even when J Cole goes on
28:29
these new rappers joints or new artists songs, it's still J Cole being J
28:36
Cole. And I think, and this is the point I wanted to make,
28:37
and I completely forgotten. I'm glad I just said that was that I
28:40
saw a comment that basically said and this was where I was like, that
28:44
is a great point. When jay Z came out, or when Ja Cole
28:48
came out and he was a new artist and jay Z put him on a
28:51
star is Born. Yeah, jay Z made j Cole step up to his
28:56
level. Lot of times, Drake is stepping down to these other artists level
29:03
when it's like, no, make them do better, you know what I'm
29:06
saying, You're Drake, make them come to your level. And I think
29:10
that's where it's twisted. That's a great way to put it, and that
29:15
I love that thought, and I love that whole point. It's exactly that
29:18
you're that's the esteem we hold Drake to, you know what I'm saying,
29:22
And I feel like he shouldn't be emotional about it, and you know,
29:26
lashing out at Joe Budden and now he looks silly because the footing is stepping
29:30
out of him standing Joe Budden in front of Joe Budden. You know what
29:33
I'm saying, Like he was adamant about Hey, I want to stand you
29:37
for a minute. You know what I'm saying, Like, which is cool.
29:41
I'm not shaming that if you if I meet nas Bro, I'm gonna
29:45
let him know how much he affected me. Dog, you know what I'm
29:47
saying, Like, why would I not you know, let somebody know,
29:51
Like, Bro, your art touched me in such a way that it influenced
29:55
my life. Like Bro, That's that's what every artist aspires to do.
29:59
I'm saying. And I definitely agree with Joe. You were saying that Joe
30:04
Budden was saying kind of the same thing, like about him being older and
30:07
like, you know, getting into that vibe and Bro, that leads leads
30:14
me into my next point. Dog J Cole is the greatest rapper right now.
30:18
Like it's hands down, there's no question, like anybody that even tries
30:21
to give me the Drake thing bro Like at this point, Yeah, this
30:26
album, especially after the collapse, I haven't even heard it yet, and
30:30
even people that's Drake fans were saying, Bro, he got destroyed. You
30:34
know what I'm saying, I'm excited, Yo. You don't understand how heart
30:37
has been for me not to listen to that because you're telling me Jake Hole's
30:42
killing Drake on the song and I've been on the J Cole side for the
30:47
whole time. You know what I'm saying, Like, I'm this is the
30:49
same way I felt when Nas killed jay Z Dog. I felt vindicated then
30:53
I feel vindicated now you feel me. But the funny thing is, man
30:57
like, I was out of J Cole fan until about twenty twelve thirteen.
31:03
Around there. I didn't like the music he dropped in the beginning. It
31:07
didn't resonate with me. It wasn't the vibe that I messed with. But
31:12
he hit a stride bro that it was just it was undeniable and everything that
31:17
he's done since has been undeniable. Bro, Like J Cole got a catalog
31:21
to me, Like, nah, he's this catalog. Like I'll go back
31:22
and listen to J Coles whatever album and feel the vibe and catch stiff stuff
31:27
later that at then, like it's the same kind of feeling, Like,
31:32
Bro, J Cole's a dude that I got like homies that they got little
31:36
brothers and stuff, and like they talk to me about Jay CON's like,
31:40
Bro J Cole's wive. J Cole barn It's like, Bro, you ain't
31:42
been through enough life to feel this dog, because yeah, this dude is
31:45
saying some stuff like he is. This guy is almost like and he's doing
31:51
it in an appealing way. Bro, And yo, kudos to him because
31:55
J Cole definitely unlocked how to be a rapper now, Like you know what
32:00
I'm saying, because like there's other people that could spit, there's other people
32:04
that do X Y and Z, but Ja Cole got it all, bro,
32:07
Like Ja Cole is the goat right now. To make another point to
32:10
what I just said previously, J Cole going, you know, following up
32:15
with what you just said. J Cole has a song with Lil Yachty and
32:20
I've never heard Lil YACHTI sounds like such a great rapper, but Ja Cole
32:25
got on it and Li YACHTI stepped it up, you know what I'm saying.
32:30
And that is my main point with Drake. When I saw somebody say
32:35
that, I was like, that's it right there. You are Drake.
32:37
You don't have to step down, make them step up, you know.
32:43
That's that's where he's that's where he's falling on these albums. And it's funny
32:46
as hell because I'm not a Drake fan. You're a little bit of a
32:51
Drake fan. Quincy and Joe is a big Drake fan, and we're all
32:54
pretty much saying the same thing, but just in different words. You know
32:58
what I'm saying. It's like, he's a great artist. He needs to
33:00
do better, bro, That's that's it at the end of the day.
33:05
Well, no, I mean, I'm not I'm not going to say expects
33:07
for him. I don't care if he does better or not. I'll still
33:10
go back and listen to his own ship, just like Kanye. I'm not
33:13
expecting Kanye to have research. Yeah, yeah, I don't care if he
33:16
does better. At this point, I feel you and I feel the same
33:22
way up to a certain extent. It's like I'm not expecting you to,
33:27
you know, shadow the world every time you drop music, because now I
33:30
don't do that either, But I want to hear that you're you know what
33:34
I'm saying, Like I want to hear the music is music, if that
33:38
makes any sense, you know what I mean? Like it might miss the
33:40
mark, but it's not that you play the safe. It's not that you
33:44
were trying to catch a wave, you know what I'm saying, Like it
33:46
just missed the mark because you tried something and it didn't work. That to
33:51
me is cool. But when it's like, nah, you you're trying something
33:53
that's not your best work, you know what I mean? Like that's the
33:57
thing that I don't like because it's kind of like I said, with the
34:00
honesty, never mind, Like let's say I was a Drake fan but I
34:02
didn't like the album. I would have thought about it like damgn bro,
34:07
it's dope though that at this point he's trying to do a completely different genre
34:09
and vibe, you know what I mean? Yeah, he did get at
34:14
it too. I really liked the album. Fact, that's probably my most
34:16
favorite of the last five ye and it's like I said, bro, it's
34:20
funny because Drake was the reverse of Jake Cole for me. That was another
34:23
thing I want to talk about because like so far gone the mix stay before
34:28
so far Gone, I've come back season called comeback Season, and there was
34:30
one more it was called like Celebration or Congratulations, but there was like he
34:37
had like five heartbreak Drakes to mix, but there was one in particular that
34:40
before comeback Season there was room for improvement? Yeah, is there one?
34:45
And then there thank but thank Me later was an album right that I very
34:51
for that. That was his debut album. Yeah, I know, room
34:54
for improvement. Then comeback season is so far gone. Maybe I'm just thinking
35:00
about the Congratulations song that he did. Yeah it was like a cold Play
35:05
sample or something like that. But anyway, the point I'm trying to make
35:07
specifically about that is like when I first got put on to Drake, I
35:12
was like, I felt like the way I feel about j Cole now,
35:15
where I'm like, oh man, this dude is rapping and putting these songs
35:17
together in a way that's still rapping, but it's new. It's fresh,
35:22
Like when I heard successful it was like dang, like and I remember when
35:27
Successful drop, people didn't know it was Trey Songs on the hook. They
35:30
thought it was on the hook because he was singing on other songs. So
35:32
that kind of like it was funny because that kind of he had that kind
35:37
of in his back pocket for a little while where a lot of people thought
35:38
he was singing on Successful too, until the they did like the mainstream release
35:43
and he said featuring Trey songs like a lot of people didn't even know until
35:46
then turned the bodum up after that one. Yeah, facts And but yeah,
35:52
when when Drake was first coming on the scene, a Yo, the
35:55
joints was dope, you know what I'm saying. And I was really like
35:59
excited about the new sound that he was bringing. But he just kind of
36:01
settled into that, you know, that industry thing, and that's that's where
36:06
he lost me. Yeah, it's not the black bearry with the Squirrel Drake
36:10
anymore. Yeah, man, definitely not. Yeah. I used to like
36:15
his raps because it was like it was authentic, you know what I'm saying.
36:19
He was talking like the way he was paying the picture of like the
36:22
stuff he was going through in Toronto, at the time and like dealing with
36:24
the like the fading fame from the from the acting thing transitioning into the music
36:30
like bro Like, it was very very personal in the music and you really
36:35
like I felt like I got a good sense of who Drake was, who
36:37
that, and then it just switched so bad, bro like and it was
36:42
like I was like, nah, bro, that ain't my vibe. It's
36:45
like I don't know, man, I don't know. You go back and
36:49
you like. That's what we did that night. We went back and we
36:52
listened to So Far Gone. We was listening to Thank Me later, and
36:58
then we went on to listen to take Care and nothing was the same.
37:00
He kind of went down all of them, and I was just like,
37:02
Yo, this is the Drake that like when he was making albums, Bro,
37:07
he was making albums, you know what I'm saying. Like, I
37:10
know he had like at least fifteen to twenty probably more throwaway joints that just
37:15
didn't make the album. But I feel like now everything makes the album,
37:19
Like you know what I'm saying, That's how it comes across. No,
37:25
there's nothing like like that So Far Gone raps man, And even thinking later,
37:30
I think all the way up to views for me. I think up
37:31
to views for me was when I literally enjoyed what he was saying more than
37:37
anything. The album that I enjoyed the most and the only one that I
37:43
enjoyed, to be honest, was Nothing was the Same. That's my favorite
37:49
one too. It's a great album, the first round. I love furthest
37:52
thing, I love Love Love further Stting. That's a great song. Yeah
37:57
it is. But yeah, man, the Drake thing is funny man,
38:00
because it's like it's always a funny topic for me, because it's not that
38:06
I don't like him, because I respect his ability. I like how he
38:08
approaches making music. I like how he raps, I like how he sings.
38:13
Like on paper, I should be a Drake fan, you feel me,
38:16
but I'm not. It's just something there's just not connected with me.
38:21
And like I said, with j Cole, it never it didn't connect with
38:23
me at first. When people were talking to me about j Cole, I
38:25
was like, bro, get this nerdy crap away from me. Bro,
38:29
Like it was like thirty to me, you know what I'm saying. When
38:30
I first heard of Jake Cole, But like, as I just kept hearing
38:35
it, and here, and I was like, nah, Bro, this
38:37
dude on or something. Man, He's just he's been just banging out classics,
38:39
Bro classics Like no, no, no, I was gonna say.
38:45
It's like, especially as of recently, Man, this feature run he's been
38:49
on. It seems like everything he touches turned the gold bro everything and real
38:53
quick, just because I always love this detail. Like he even makes his
38:57
singles impactful and memorable. Like the other day, I was because I always
39:00
listened to Lion King on Ice. Right, that's a song I really love
39:05
from him. It's a slider bro dog. He names the song Lion King
39:08
on Ice. Obviously the song drops. You see the artwork, you see
39:13
like lion King on Ice, the song stars. He listening to it.
39:17
Oh, my god, young symbol with the bus down. Yeah, lion
39:22
King on Ice. When I heard that line in the song and at the
39:28
time that it came in the song, and when it just connected like this
39:31
is why this song is called Lion King on Ice, just understood the metaphor.
39:36
I'm like, Bro, this guy is a goat. It's beginning,
39:40
Bro, young symbol, young symbol with the bust down, Lion King on
39:46
Ice. My god, Bro, I was like, dog, this dude,
39:51
he's on gold status. I heard that song he drops with like three
39:57
other songs. It was between yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like
40:01
leading up to Ko D. It was like he slid it in there with
40:05
another single, Like you said, I forgot what the other ones called,
40:08
but he dropped two singles together and then he dropped the album that Lion King
40:14
on Ice boy, y'all, if y'all heard Lion King on Ice, check
40:17
it out that that song is a banger, banger banger. But yeah,
40:25
J cole Man, J Cole is that guy. If you don't like J
40:30
cole Man, I don't know what to tell you must not like rap,
40:31
Like that's just how I feel bro Like, I feel like he's There's just
40:36
no way you cannot appreciate J Cole's music, Like, even if it's not
40:39
your type of music, if you know anything about music and you give that,
40:44
you know, give something to his a listen, You're gonna respect the
40:47
artistry no matter what. Yeah, heavy for sure. I can't say the
40:52
same for Drake. When you hear just as trendy vibe, you get what
40:54
I'm saying. That's another thing too, like you get two people that don't
40:59
really listen to me music you Jake Colton got this music like that that that's
41:06
out that it's throwaway or non int you know, with no intention, you
41:12
know what I'm saying, Like h J. Coles, like everything has a
41:15
purpose exactly, Like you can't you can't pull something out of his library that
41:19
you're like, this is some bs, you know what I mean. The
41:22
closest thing you're gonna get is his first album. And even on that first
41:24
album, it's not some stuff that he would be like necessarily a shamed to
41:30
stand behind because he was still spinning and he was still putting Jake Cole in
41:34
and he was just trying to grab the listeners, you know what I mean.
41:37
But it's still some joints on it, you know what I'm saying,
41:43
Yeah, now go ahead, bro. I was just I'm looking at it
41:47
as you're talking about, and I'm like, yeah, that's that's I think
41:50
that's really what it is. It's like the quality of a quantity factor.
41:55
What you think, Joe, what's your your wrap up with this thing?
42:00
It is apples apples to oranges to me, like Drake, if Drake wanted
42:05
to be a call artist an artist, like Cole, he wouldn't be having
42:09
accolades he has now calls chasing that so Cole continue to be him and just
42:15
be But he's not. He's not on Drake's level successfully as far as mainstream
42:22
facts. So they're shooting. They're shooting for two different targets to me,
42:24
so I can't compare them anymore. When they were younger, I could compare
42:30
them. I can no longer compare them for sure. If we're looking at
42:34
raw dog talent. Sticking to where you know your fans love, that's call
42:37
all the way. He always been that way, and I love call.
42:40
He's probably I would, I would, I would kick back on it.
42:44
I don't think he's sticking to what his fans love. I think he's sticking
42:45
to what he's always strived for, is just to be the greatest rapper.
42:50
But that's what fans love though, well, that that's where they've loved,
42:53
you know, That's what Why would they not want him to keep rapping like
42:57
that? Like he wants to still be the greatest rapper ever, Like Cole
43:00
is still and this is what Like sometimes I think about it when I hear
43:04
a cold feature, I'm like, I wonder if they asked him, like
43:07
can you wrap like this call? Because it's all the coals he's always rapped.
43:12
It's never is and it's whatever he picked. I feel like it's whatever
43:15
he picks to put on that beat, which is crazy because it always sounds
43:17
good and it's always a different call on every feature. But it's one of
43:21
the coals he's we've already heard him before because it's it's yeah, it's the
43:24
yeah, and that's what I mean. And he can keep doing that behind
43:29
it. But when you think of the plateau, he's not touring like that,
43:34
he's not featuring like that, he's not in the name like that.
43:37
So I don't I just don't think the Rabbit for the same thing anymore.
43:40
And that's why. But I do think Cole is definitely the better rapper today
43:45
for me. That touches on a big theme that we always talk about in
43:47
the show, Like it goes back to the ice spice thing, goes back
43:51
to bad Buddy, you know, even Drake, like how we talked about
43:54
it before. It's you know the ground in this, you know what I
43:59
mean? Like that's that's the theme here, Like whenever you're going for a
44:02
certain thing, you got to sacrifice certain things, you know, And that's
44:07
that's pretty much what you're hearing on Joe. It's like they're they've both removed
44:12
certain tools from their belt, so when they face off, it's not even
44:15
the same fight, you know what I'm saying. You know, Drake got
44:19
a freaking bat, you know, and Cole got a nunchuck, you know
44:22
what I'm saying. Like they're not even like in the same game. Yeah,
44:30
at the end of the day, Like I think, and we talk
44:32
about it so much music today versus music how it was, And I get
44:37
the anticipation to stay up one night for that for an album released, like
44:42
I used to, like I see like my Facebook posts for when Watch the
44:47
Throne was dropping, and like I stayed up like till three four in the
44:52
morning, one trying to download it on bootleg and two for it to drop,
44:57
just to hear it. And I haven't felt that a way in a
45:00
long time now. For Drake, Everybody's like, whos gonna stay up tonight
45:04
for bad Buddy, I was like, I'm here that shit in the morning,
45:06
bro, And I think, and I still have my passion for music.
45:10
I'm still I don't think today's music industry makes me anticipate, makes me
45:16
expect. I feel like I lost that right now from the industry today.
45:22
Definitely agree. Yeah, man, that's a perfect segue. Man, we're
45:27
back to the Billboard Top ten game. You heard me. That's a new
45:37
theme song, right, So, as always, we're gonna have y'all both
45:44
guests a year, and whoever gets closer to the year will start the game.
45:50
So go ahead, where wants to throw it out? We said two
45:54
thousand and seven. You hear me two thousand and two? Oh wait,
46:04
I didn't hear you say two thousand and two, but yeah, so and
46:07
two. Joe will be going first. He's closer. It is two thousand
46:12
and eleven. I brought it a little closer, all right, So here
46:17
we go. First question is up, Now are you ready? I guess
46:23
it's This hint is a short one, so you just got to catch it.
46:30
A fast flow, a goat flow, a dance flow. These three
46:35
artists unexpectedly drop this hip hop R and B banger. I'm just gonna give
46:39
you the main artist as far as the multiple choice. Okay, so once
46:45
you guess the main artist, you can guess the name of the song.
46:47
But then you have to give me the who's on the song too? You
46:50
know what I'm saying? All right, So I'm going to give you the
46:53
hint again, and then I'm going to give you the artists a fast flow,
46:58
a goat flow, a dance flow. These three artists unexpectedly drop this
47:05
hip hop R and B banger. And by the way, this is April
47:07
of twenty eleven. So the options are neo, Chris Brown and Mario.
47:30
Ah yeah, I'm gonna go neo incorrect Quincy Brown Brown? All right?
47:40
What and who's on the song? Chris Brown buster rhymes, Lil Wayne look
47:46
at me man, Yes, sir, it is now twenty eleven. That's
47:53
crazy. I thought it was earlier. I ain't gonna lie that. That's
47:55
crazy crazy right, all right, So Joe had the first question, So
48:01
you get the next one, Quincy. This, this explicit anthem was instantly
48:09
a hit, and this rapper turned singer continued his crossover success. The hints
48:16
are emon see Lo Green, Kanye West Green correct, and what is the
48:27
song? Fuck you? Correct the move? Appreciate your language, home boy?
48:36
Alright, now we got you, Joe. Last question. As one
48:43
pop star rides into the sunset. Another rises with these ladies taking over the
48:49
charts with an R and B pop crossover. And again, like the first
48:52
one, I'm gonna give you the main artist and then you're tell me who
48:54
else is on it. So, as one pop star rides into the on
49:00
set, another rises with these ladies taking over the charts with an R and
49:05
B pop crossover. The options are Rihanna, Beyonce, Mary J Bliche.
49:15
As one pop star rides into the sunset, another rises with these two ladies
49:22
taking over the charts with this R and B pop crossover. Rihanna, Beyonce,
49:29
Mary Man. This week was This week was a tough one as far
49:42
as like the chart I'm gonna go Rihanna, Rihanna is correct, So now
49:47
you gotta give me the artist and the song. I'm gonna give you the
49:51
clue again, so it's her collaborating with somebody. As one pop star ris
49:55
into the sunset, another rises with these ladies taking over the charge with an
50:00
R and B pop crossover. Who does she collab with? That's a tough
50:08
one, right, oh man? Who does she collabor with? Think Rihanna
50:15
collad twenty eleven ship? Nah, I don't got the Chief. You want
50:24
to take a stab adequency? Hey yo, Hey you Rihanna in twenty eleven,
50:36
collide with a pop man, I feel like I don't know if I
50:45
just don't know the name of the song. Do you know the artist?
50:52
No? Check this out when I tell you, this person is so far
50:58
removed from being the person on this chart that that's probably why y'all never even
51:01
it never even reached your mind. It was Oh, Britney Spears, the
51:07
song I knew, but I didn't remember who it was. I feel like
51:14
we don't. You don't remember who it was because it's like a completely different
51:17
person, Like that's not that long ago that she was still like making music
51:21
and on the charts. She had a Vegas residency a few years ago after
51:25
that. Yeah, crazy, bro, it's wold like how things took a
51:29
turn. But yeah, man, the Dobinski waited by a bell at the
51:36
end of the at the end of the season. Let me run down these
51:39
charts real quick. I'm not gonna lie. In twenty eleven, it was
51:42
a Tough one, number ten judas Lady Gaga, number nine Till the World
51:49
Ends Britney Spears featuring Nicki Minaj and Kesha. Number eight on the Floor Jennifer
51:55
Lopez featuring pit Bull. Pitbull was the King of Terribleman. Yeah time,
52:00
bro look at Me. Number seven Chris Brown featuring Lil Wayne and Buster Rhymes.
52:07
And the crazy thing is that was like a random collapse that came out
52:09
of nowhere. Facts as as far as like the story that they tell about
52:14
it, like it wasn't even a play song like that. I think it
52:15
was Buster Rhymes that approached Wayne and Chris Brown for the song about it and
52:22
ended up on Chris Brown's album. And then number six was Rolling in the
52:28
Deep adele that that was, you know, that was a good time,
52:31
like that was just a dope artist to get number five, Fuck you cee
52:37
Lo Green, I got her turned singer man Goodie Mob. Number four down
52:45
on Me Jeremiah featuring fifty number three, just Get Enough The Black Eyed Peas
52:52
Number two e t. Katie Perry featuring Kanye West. I've never dang.
52:58
I remember that was a good man. I remember that. This was like
53:00
at the time when I wasn't really listening to music. I don't even know.
53:05
It was very poppy, like if you look at the if you listen
53:07
to that chart. That's a very poppy time and number one that's in them
53:10
Rihanna feature and Britney spears. It was actually its first weekend number one,
53:15
April thirty of twenty eleven. Kanye's verse was, bro I gotta I gotta
53:23
even listen to that song. I don't even heard it. Kanye went crazy
53:27
on that song. Yeah he did. I remember, I was trying to
53:29
remember the lyrics. I'm gonna I'm gonna listen to that Drake album now.
53:32
Man, the next time we talk, I'm just gonna give a quick,
53:35
my quick review on it. Spent a lot of time on it, but
53:38
I definitely liked hearing what y'all said about it and all the stuff y'all was
53:44
talking about. I didn't even really think about, and I'm gonna think about
53:46
that when I listened to it. And I love that example you gave of
53:50
Lil Yachty with a J Cole song where Lil Yachty up to his level on
53:53
the Ja Cole joint, you know what I'm saying. And I love that
53:58
idea and that premise, and like I said, it kind of just leads
54:00
into the whole idea of all of us saying the same thing. Like when
54:04
you know artist is great and they got the ability, you just want to
54:08
see them, you know, live up to it. Yeah yeah, well
54:15
yeah, man, y'all got anything else I want to throw in there?
54:16
Hey, Yo, we haven't really talked about that. You about to be
54:27
back in Orlando A Sappington left, I'll be back. I'll be gone to
54:32
November. I'd be gone to November. He yeah, I'll be back by
54:37
Thanksgiving for shure back in the Let's just gonna get tired of me, Like
54:42
I told you, bro, So everybody knows like I have no friends.
54:45
I'm like a like a I'll be like in the You remember staying from w
54:50
CW. He used to hang out on the rafters with a little bird on
54:52
his shoulder. He just just watch what was going on and like he would
54:55
never participate for like a whole year straight, just looking at mother fuckers.
55:00
I just be dog, I just I just like to be alone, man,
55:04
to be alone. But Quincy left. Dog, I don't got no
55:07
friends since Quincy left. So you know you can slide right in pause,
55:13
pulling skirt skirt like yo, write a song for me? Yeah, and
55:19
you gotta pull up to vibe in the studio. Man, that's gonna be
55:21
We're definitely gonna do a lot of that for sure too. Bro. And
55:24
then when Quincy comes to town, we both already there, we can finally
55:28
do a podcasting person Like, there's so much still open up. There's so
55:32
much we're gonna open up with my move back, and I'm excited for it.
55:36
