Speaker 2: absolutely a lot to talk about. You got average Joe,
0:34

0:34
Speaker 4: You're in a new color purple too?
0:36
Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, absolutely, yeah yeah, new color purple, Average Joe.
0:40
Speaker 1: We just talked about that yesterday. We were talking about
0:42
Speaker 1: they just released the trailer and what's your thoughts on
0:44
Speaker 1: the movie, because we were like, color Purple? Is that
0:45
Speaker 1: a movie that.
0:46
Speaker 2: You do over hard to remake? Classics? Man? So the
0:49
Speaker 2: director Blizz I don't know he did. Beyonces. Remember when
0:54
Speaker 2: she was doing like the Lion King where she was
0:58
Speaker 2: Liken Jay. They was like.
1:01
Speaker 4: Live action line King.
1:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, but remember this video she had. It was like
1:05
Speaker 2: a twenty minute video where she was like and cars
1:08
Speaker 2: and on the beach running and Jay had these like
1:12
Speaker 2: suits and stuff whatever. It was like very beautifully. Yeah, yeah,
1:17
Speaker 2: all of that. Yeah, yeah, he directed all of that,
1:21
Speaker 2: and so for him to take that vision then apply
1:23
Speaker 2: it to this movie, it's like bananas. Plus it's a
1:27
Speaker 2: different spin on it. It's a whole different spin on
1:31
Speaker 2: a color purple. So it's gonna be way different than
1:35
Speaker 2: than the other one. But still in it's on, right,
1:37
Speaker 2: you know, holding up to what it is. But I
1:40
Speaker 2: ain't really big on remakes neither like that. But but
1:43
Speaker 2: this one, y'all, it's crazy because it's a different perspective now.
1:47
Speaker 4: That I was saying the twenty twenty three you can't
1:48
Speaker 4: do color purple.
1:49
Speaker 2: You have to have to be woken. Yeah, yeah, so much. Yeah. Yeah,
1:53
Speaker 2: it's a whole different, whole different look on it, a
1:55
Speaker 2: whole different spin on it.
1:56
Speaker 1: But you know, some of the remakes, like I didn't
1:59
Speaker 1: like Coming to America too, right, I just the first
2:01
Speaker 1: one was is classic.
2:01
Speaker 2: I don't think you touched that. Yeah, I didn't like.
2:04
Speaker 1: There was another remake that they did, but people told
2:06
Speaker 1: me white Man can't Jump. I didn't want to go
2:07
Speaker 1: see that, but people telling me it's really really good,
2:09
Speaker 1: so I guess it can if they come from a
2:11
Speaker 1: different perspective. A New way House Party was another one
2:13
Speaker 1: I didn't like.
2:14
Speaker 2: I thought I didn't. I don't really like that one.
2:15
Speaker 1: But when they do it from a different perspective or shot, well,
2:18
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a problem.
2:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, I play a Fonso, so I play Seely's father.
2:28
Speaker 4: That's when I take you can't have you can't have
2:31
Speaker 4: I can't remember the girl, you can't have her, but
2:33
Speaker 4: you can have.
2:39
Speaker 2: Exactly. Yeah, yeah, I played him. They kept that line
2:43
Speaker 2: in there. No, no, it's it's different. Yeah, but you
2:47
Speaker 2: know you still you still get it, you know, it's
2:50
Speaker 2: just still he's still that dude got yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
2:53
Speaker 2: I still call it ugly and woke away just because
3:02
Speaker 2: of this new era. I mean, yo, yeah I do.
3:07
Speaker 2: I do hate it definitely. That's why I don't understand
3:10
Speaker 2: why people who don't like that kind of stuff, Like
3:13
Speaker 2: why do you even come to the shows? You're messing
3:15
Speaker 2: it up for the people that really pay to come
3:18
Speaker 2: see and hear bullshit, you know what I mean? Like,
3:21
Speaker 2: why would you come in there with your beliefs and
3:23
Speaker 2: feelings about something that I thought of And you ain't
3:27
Speaker 2: in my world, You ain't in my tax bracket, you
3:30
Speaker 2: ain't around the people I'm around. You ain't not about
3:32
Speaker 2: my culture, but you come over here and try to
3:35
Speaker 2: tell me what I need to be saying and doing.
3:36
Speaker 2: It don't even make sense. So yeah, I hate that
3:40
Speaker 2: that we have to kind of conform to that. And
3:43
Speaker 2: I heard somebody say that in the interview that we
3:45
Speaker 2: don't if and it's not a problem, And it is
3:48
Speaker 2: a problem, I think honestly. You got Lenny, Bruce and
3:51
Speaker 2: Richard and all these people stood up for us to
3:53
Speaker 2: be able to say whatever we want to say, and
3:56
Speaker 2: now we can't. It's like it's crazy to take away
3:59
Speaker 2: from the whole thing. It's like, now you go to
4:01
Speaker 2: comedy shows and they tell you what they think you
4:03
Speaker 2: want to hear in order to be safe, you know
4:06
Speaker 2: what I mean. But there's certain comics that are still
4:08
Speaker 2: out on the front line that get loose, you know,
4:11
Speaker 2: like Dave just just don't give a fuck about nothing,
4:15
Speaker 2: you know. So you've got great comics that's still out
4:18
Speaker 2: here fighting for that that that voice that we all
4:21
Speaker 2: have and that people want to hear, except for certain
4:24
Speaker 2: people that don't.
4:25
Speaker 4: So, and your circumstance is unique because you you definitely
4:27
Speaker 4: edgy on stage, but then you got all the corporate
4:29
Speaker 4: shit going on. Yeah, yeah, exactly, Yeah yeah I can't Yeah,
4:35
Speaker 4: I can't say exactly what I want to say.
4:42
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what that that's my whole life, sitting
4:44
Speaker 2: back trying to figure out another way. That's what. That's
4:46
Speaker 2: all I do. I'd be like, how can I say
4:48
Speaker 2: this another way and still be able to say it?
4:51
Speaker 1: But you know, you to face an old Spice bro
4:54
Speaker 1: crazy Like that's why if you really think about it,
4:57
Speaker 1: it's really wild.
4:58
Speaker 2: It's likely the.
5:00
Speaker 4: Two people Dan Cole, the dude who used to ride
5:01
Speaker 4: the horseback.
5:05
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah, it's crazy right yeah.
5:11
Speaker 2: I couldn't even even when they came to me about it, and.
5:14
Speaker 1: I was just like, wow, they can't even say, hey,
5:16
Speaker 1: we want you to do this old Spice commercially, the
5:18
Speaker 1: fake what was your thought?
5:19

5:25
Speaker 2: of like quirky like characters like on Anti Tribeca and
5:29
Speaker 2: Conan and Blackish, and I was doing all these like
5:33
Speaker 2: trippy characters, and I guess they was like, yo, it
5:36
Speaker 2: made sense where it was like yo, you come in
5:39
Speaker 2: and Yo we can all we can rock and I
5:41
Speaker 2: was like yeah, I was like, yeah, I can do that.

Speaker 2: know what I mean, like really wild in the woods
5:53
Speaker 2: and beard grow and throwing trees and you know, I
5:57
Speaker 2: did all of that, and then I came back to
5:59
Speaker 2: the US and there's like didn't want to use none
6:03
Speaker 2: all of that and then use none of it. And

Speaker 4: Repost it and then everybody be like that's on.
10:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I you know you try to be different
10:17
Speaker 2: and just think outside the box all the time and
10:19
Speaker 2: just try to make a career out of that, and
10:21
Speaker 2: just try to always go left and you know, think
10:25
Speaker 2: outside the box, and you know, just keep it as
10:28
Speaker 2: as as real as possible. You know, like when I'm
10:32
Speaker 2: on stage and I read off my paper, like a
10:36
Speaker 2: lot of those jokes I written and used, but I
10:39
Speaker 2: always do one joke that that isn't that I've never
10:43
Speaker 2: done before because I wanted not to work because it's funny,
10:49
Speaker 2: not being funny in a sense. I think I made
10:53
Speaker 2: a craft out of that. Just you ever watch somebody bomb?
10:57
Speaker 2: I love it? Yeah, you love it? Don't you tell
11:00
Speaker 2: me the time?
11:02
Speaker 4: Have you see me laughing hard somebody bombing somebody?
11:05
Speaker 2: I'm really engaged? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm.
11:09
Speaker 3: Like that too, like hilarious with that. I want to
11:11
Speaker 3: go see him one time. I know. This is his
11:13
Speaker 3: interview in not Mine but I want to go see
11:15
Speaker 3: him in LA and that's his first time I seen
11:18
Speaker 3: him in person. And he does that like he will
11:21
Speaker 3: tell the joke and if and it's so funny because
11:24
Speaker 3: he wants it not to work, but it does. And
11:27
Speaker 3: it's like, yo, stop trying to not be funny, like
11:30
Speaker 3: you're just funny. Like and then he said, he said,
11:34
Speaker 3: when you really throw one work and it was like
11:36
Speaker 3: a couple of chuckles and he was like, no, if
11:38
Speaker 3: it don't work, don't don't force to laugh, Like, no,
11:40
Speaker 3: you don't have to force to laugh. That was so
11:42
Speaker 3: funny just seeing him doing that and then seeing it
11:46
Speaker 3: done so long ago when I first started watching comedy.
11:48
Speaker 3: It's crazy he still does it and it's still like
11:50
Speaker 3: the first time.
11:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I appreciate it. This is you know, it's
11:54
Speaker 2: it's because people tend to forget it's about laughing. You
11:58
Speaker 2: think how you laugh, it's about you laughing, you know
12:01
Speaker 2: what I mean. I'm not here to have you laugh
12:04
Speaker 2: a particular way. It's like you're laughing if you laugh
12:09
Speaker 2: at anything I do, it's funny, but I think it's
12:11
Speaker 2: funny not being funny. So I make sure I do
12:13
Speaker 2: a joke that does not work, and so people would
12:17
Speaker 2: laugh at it. And it's funny to me to hear
12:19
Speaker 2: people laugh at it, and then when they do laugh
12:21
Speaker 2: at it, it's just like, I really know that I
12:24
Speaker 2: got that audience. But when they don't laugh, what did you.
12:28
Speaker 4: First realize you was funny? Like I'm talking about forget comedy.
12:31
Speaker 4: I'm talking about back in the.
12:32
Speaker 2: Day I never did. It was a friend of mine's,
12:35
Speaker 2: dude named Gwill Like. We was on some ill shit
12:37
Speaker 2: in Chicago, and you know, I never even thought comedy,
12:42
Speaker 2: but he used to always listen to me just have
12:45
Speaker 2: different outtakes on things and different views, and he would
12:49
Speaker 2: just always be like, you should do comedy. You should
12:51
Speaker 2: do comedy. I used to be like goddamny. And one
12:55
Speaker 2: day he bet me to go on stage, and I
12:56
Speaker 2: went on and never look back because I start really
13:00
Speaker 2: because I always thought comics was like, you know, slipping
13:03
Speaker 2: on bananas and pied to the face that motherfuckers. And
13:07
Speaker 2: you know, then I realized that there's comedians. Then after
13:10
Speaker 2: I did it, I started doing research and I started
13:12
Speaker 2: seeing like George Garland and then Degenerous and all these
13:17
Speaker 2: other great comics that were like, you know, like I
13:21
Speaker 2: mean obviously I knew about Red Fox and you know,
13:25
Speaker 2: moms maybe and all them or whatever. But I started
13:27
Speaker 2: seeing comedians that wasn't throwing piles in their faces, who
13:32
Speaker 2: was just standing there talking, And I was like, oh,
13:35
Speaker 2: you could be funny like that and not move. I
13:38
Speaker 2: was like yeah, because that was my whole demeanor anyway.
13:42
Speaker 2: Like I wasn't like no people people come up to
13:45
Speaker 2: me this day I went to high school with.
13:46
Speaker 5: They was like, boy, he was silly as hell in
13:48
Speaker 5: high school. I'd be like, I ain't even speak to
13:50
Speaker 5: you in high school, Like I wasn't. I wasn't even
13:54
Speaker 5: silly in school. I used to just be quiet. I
13:57
Speaker 5: was always a thinker of being the only child.
13:59
Speaker 2: You know.
13:59
Speaker 1: So you're a writer as well. How was the writing
14:04
Speaker 1: strike affecting you? Especially with you being on all these

Speaker 2: You just just go however you need to go about it.
14:33
Speaker 2: You know, but hopefully you do it right, you know,
14:36
Speaker 2: but it ain't nobody talk to all. The writer's gone.

Speaker 2: That's what they doing with that ship.
16:33
Speaker 6: Now.
16:33
Speaker 2: It's crazy as fuck right now, right so it's like
16:36
Speaker 2: it's like, yeah, that a is going it's gonna tear
16:39
Speaker 2: everything up on top of everybody being like kind of
16:42
Speaker 2: dumb as hell. Right now. You see that, you see
16:45
Speaker 2: that I posted this video about these kids they cannot
16:49
Speaker 2: read clocks. Did you see that? Like a round clock number?
16:55
Speaker 2: They do not know how to read clocks. But then
16:58
Speaker 2: you start thinking about it. Am I older? They like dumb,
17:02
Speaker 2: like a little bit, but it's a little but they
17:07
Speaker 2: are so they don't have clocks. How old were they?
17:10
Speaker 2: They was like teenagers. Oh that's stupid, but they man,
17:14
Speaker 2: one man, they honestly was on that like this. I
17:16
Speaker 2: ain't never even seen one of those around clock. Think
17:20
Speaker 2: about it.
17:20
Speaker 1: We don't really see him see digital clocks round clock even.
17:23
Speaker 1: I take this step further. I was talking to somebody
17:26
Speaker 1: that was late the other day and he was like,
17:27
Speaker 1: my phone died, and what you don't think about? You know,
17:29
Speaker 1: everything is connected to electricity back in the day. I
17:31
Speaker 1: don't know, but my dad used to have a wind
17:33
Speaker 1: up clock so no matter what.
17:35
Speaker 2: It would always go off.
17:36
Speaker 1: He never would have to worry about being late electricity
17:38
Speaker 1: went out or forget to save it. So he was like,
17:40
Speaker 1: these kids know nothing about that. So if the phone
17:42
Speaker 1: does they they don't.
17:44
Speaker 2: They have no idea. They was asking them like they
17:48
Speaker 2: was asking them. They was on that. They was on
17:50
Speaker 2: there like yeah, it's nine seventy six, Like dude, they
17:57
Speaker 2: was trying to figure out the time. The dude was
17:59
Speaker 2: like holding the clock and he was like, what time
18:01
Speaker 2: is this? There's like nine seventy six.
18:03
Speaker 3: This is in America.
18:04
Speaker 2: In America, y'all. But it had me thinking, like, man,
18:08
Speaker 2: we owe as hell where nobody knows a lot of reason.
18:11
Speaker 3: Just things get out of you know, you just get
18:13
Speaker 3: out of touch with things. I mean because honestly, just
18:16
Speaker 3: clocks half clocks all over my house. But I don't tell.
18:19
Speaker 4: Time on them. They risk to the time when they
18:23
Speaker 4: were flood them.
18:24
Speaker 3: Out because it's nice. I'm gonna be like, I'm never
18:33
Speaker 3: it's my watch face not playing three o'clock. We just
18:54
Speaker 3: got away from you think about it.
18:55
Speaker 1: People don't necessarily buy watches for time now as an accessory.
18:59
Speaker 2: What time is the first thing you do?
19:00
Speaker 1: You can pull out your phone, Dude, I got a
19:03
Speaker 1: nice watch on.
19:05
Speaker 2: It's so wow. You gotta be attention to that ship,
19:09
Speaker 2: like straight up, like it be little ship like that
19:11
Speaker 2: that you be like whoa the world? Change it? Like
19:15
Speaker 2: right now I'm looking at your face you over there
19:17
Speaker 2: like damn na face changed. Didn't get some problems. Didn't
19:27
Speaker 2: touch my nose.
19:28
Speaker 1: But even navigation thinks about navigation. Right now I'm driving around,
19:32
Speaker 1: I can know, I can know where my house is.
19:34
Speaker 1: I still put in a navigation. Now, let's say that
19:36
Speaker 1: the Ways app don't work, a Google Maps don't work,
19:38
Speaker 1: be lost.
19:38
Speaker 2: I'll be like, where am I gonna?
19:39
Speaker 1: Right?
19:40
Speaker 2: Gone, it ain't no way to get that unless you, like,
19:44
Speaker 2: like a lot of old people, they still be carrying.
19:48
Speaker 3: Maps, map quest and stuff like that. I know people
19:50
Speaker 3: that still well they're older obviously, but people that still
19:52
Speaker 3: print off directions. But I think you were a lot
19:56
Speaker 3: on it because I do the same thing. We just
19:58
Speaker 3: rely on it because we know we got it. If
19:59
Speaker 3: you ever just try to get home, you would get there.
20:01
Speaker 1: No, no, I'm not talking about home, but like one
20:03
Speaker 1: places like let's say you gotta go from Baltimore here, right,
20:06
Speaker 1: and you know you you got to take ninety five
20:08
Speaker 1: to the turnpike through the tunnel. Now you ain't got
20:10
Speaker 1: no navigation. You're gonna be like, damn, which where am
20:12
Speaker 1: I going?
20:13
Speaker 2: In?
20:13
Speaker 3: Right? I'm gonna I'm gonna eventually get home because I
20:15
Speaker 3: know what I got to take to get here to
20:17
Speaker 3: get there, and freed signs and all of that. But
20:20
Speaker 3: I would, yeah, I would literally lose my mind just
20:22
Speaker 3: because this is easier so that sometimes we use it.
20:24
Speaker 3: We don't even need it.
20:26
Speaker 4: That's crazy to hear y'all. I've seen you justin I
20:28
Speaker 4: know you did.
20:29
Speaker 2: Y'all.
20:29
Speaker 4: Comedians have like photographic memori because you'll have to remember
20:33
Speaker 4: jokes and stuff like that.
20:34

21:00
Speaker 2: I as Joe. Man. It's this was thank you so much.
21:03
Speaker 2: It was, man, this is a labor of love. It's
21:08
Speaker 2: like a darkly comedic drama takes place in Pittsburgh. Dude,
21:14
Speaker 2: he his father dies and these mob dudes is looking
21:19
Speaker 2: for him and the Joe. He don't know what's going on,
21:22
Speaker 2: but his father left some money trying to figure out
21:25
Speaker 2: what's going on, and he had to make these decisions
21:28
Speaker 2: between like, you know, family and money. But yeah, it's
21:32
Speaker 2: a it's a it's a super like it's funny, but
21:35
Speaker 2: it's it's dark as darkest hair. Like we was leaving
21:39
Speaker 2: set miserable just from being like a comic. You gotta
21:44
Speaker 2: you know you you can be good to do comedy,
21:47
Speaker 2: but every day just to leave murdering motherfuckers and Lyon
21:52
Speaker 2: and seaful and heartache and losing people and every day
21:57
Speaker 2: you leave.
21:58
Speaker 4: You know.
21:59
Speaker 2: That was the first time time I started realizing I
22:01
Speaker 2: understand how like people kind of break when they when
22:04
Speaker 2: they do movies and stuff. That was the very first
22:06
Speaker 2: time I used to be like, he ain't that deep
22:09
Speaker 2: into characters. But nah, Like if you keep doing that
22:13
Speaker 2: and you have to constantly be that person, do that
22:16
Speaker 2: like to like that's that ship wear on you. I
22:19
Speaker 2: used to always think, like, like with Park, they always
22:21
Speaker 2: say Park became like, yeah, he became Bishop from Juice
22:27
Speaker 2: or whatever. But at first I never really kind of
22:30
Speaker 2: like believe that ship. But yeah, And I saw Michael B.
22:32
Speaker 2: Jordan's talk about how he had to go to rehab
22:35
Speaker 2: after Noah. He said, I think it was Fruitville or
22:40
Speaker 2: it was no I think it was Wakanda. Yeah, I
22:45
Speaker 2: don't know, but I remember him saying that he had
22:47
Speaker 2: to go to like rehab, thought it was Wakanda. It
22:50
Speaker 2: might but a lot of a lot of a lot
22:52
Speaker 2: of a lot of actors got to do that anyway.
22:55
Speaker 2: That's how that show was. Man, we was down there,
22:57
Speaker 2: we were shooting in the lineup. Boy, it was like
22:59
Speaker 2: we was doing like sixteen hours sometimes twenty hours shooting
23:03
Speaker 2: that shipping. But but we got a nice piece of work,
23:08
Speaker 2: and man, it's gonna be something if y'all like Murder

23:14
Speaker 2: This is your lead.
23:16

Speaker 6: about this amazing because even as comics, we we can
23:27
Speaker 6: still we can play any part, we can do anything.
23:29
Speaker 3: You always think of Robin Williams, you know, the comics.
23:33
Speaker 2: Especially going from comedy to Drive and Jim.
23:35
Speaker 3: Carrey and you know, even like what you just say,
23:38
Speaker 3: like how you sixteen hours? You got a status person
23:42
Speaker 3: and you got it. It's like you used to being,
23:45
Speaker 3: you know, but no, it's different. But the fact that you.
23:47
Speaker 2: Can do it. Yeah, but it's like I remember when
23:50
Speaker 2: I when they when when they when I took the job,
23:53
Speaker 2: because usually I'm I'm a type of cat. I go
23:55
Speaker 2: play my part and I go get my drop top
23:57
Speaker 2: and we rolling, you know what I mean, Like that's
24:00
Speaker 2: I did on Blackets for eight years. I did my
24:02
Speaker 2: part and that was out. I was gone. Why when
24:05
Speaker 2: I I signed on to do this and seeing like
24:09
Speaker 2: sixty paid scripts and I'm in like ninety percent of it.
24:14
Speaker 2: I'm looking like, like I got a real job. I'm like,
24:19
Speaker 2: I can't leave. They like, man, the first one here,
24:23
Speaker 2: last to leave. You like what it was an adjustment
24:27
Speaker 2: because I still had other things going on and other
24:30
Speaker 2: businesses and other projects and trying to write that and
24:33
Speaker 2: do that and trying to do this. I had to
24:36
Speaker 2: learn to I had to cut all that out, just
24:39
Speaker 2: focus dead on this and get it done. But yeah,
24:43
Speaker 2: being you gotta watch what you pray for. You gotta
24:46
Speaker 2: know how to pray. You know, a lot of people
24:49
Speaker 2: don't know how to pray. And you know, that was
24:51
Speaker 2: one of the things that I learned. You know, a
24:54
Speaker 2: person to ask, man, Lord, can I have a man?
24:56
Speaker 2: Can I have a woman? And they'll get you one
24:59
Speaker 2: and they don't have a job, I won't have. I
25:05
Speaker 2: forgot to ask for a job with that person. Yeah,
25:09
Speaker 2: so you just got you gotta now pray man. But no,
25:11
Speaker 2: it was it was an amazing, amazing thing that shifted
25:15
Speaker 2: my whole mind and mind frame as far as acting
25:18
Speaker 2: and uh, you know, just uh you know, taking on
25:22
Speaker 2: those those responsibilities when it.
25:23
Speaker 4: Comes to comedy and drama, right, they always say it's
25:25
Speaker 4: a thin line, that's where the whole tears of a
25:27
Speaker 4: clown thing come from a comic.
25:28
Speaker 2: You don't lean into trauma. Yeah, absolutely, that's that's exactly
25:32
Speaker 2: what I did, you know what I mean. But it
25:35
Speaker 2: wasn't like that at first, like like, uh, another another
25:39
Speaker 2: turning point. When we was doing the Hearder They Fall,
25:43
Speaker 2: I was like I walked on set and was like, Yeah,
25:46
Speaker 2: what's going on, Hey, what's going on on? Funny and comedian? Comedian?
25:50
Speaker 2: I remember Jonathan Age's and all them, they was just
25:52
Speaker 2: all sitting back and del Roy Lindo, they was all
25:55
Speaker 2: just quiet, just chilling. I was like, Hey, what's going on?
25:57
Speaker 2: And beyond Hey, so we're gonna knock this out and
25:59
Speaker 2: we're gonna They was just like And then when we werehearsed,
26:03
Speaker 2: they was just like so like and like it was
26:06
Speaker 2: so real, and so it just was like, man, I
26:10
Speaker 2: remember Jonathan told me, he was like, man, you shouldn't
26:13
Speaker 2: acting is the worst title for this job. This is
26:17
Speaker 2: what you should not be doing. You should not be acting.
26:21
Speaker 2: You should become you should become that person instead of acting.
26:25
Speaker 2: And so it made me be like, oh really, So
26:28
Speaker 2: then I went back changed my whole demean up. Man
26:31
Speaker 2: just from that conversation and came back and was like,
26:34
Speaker 2: all right, we gotta we gotta just become this person.
26:38
Speaker 2: And I remember that all the time, just becoming you know,
26:43
Speaker 2: So isn't that dangerous thoughing?
26:45
Speaker 4: You gotta unpack that personally disconnect?
26:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you gotta. You gotta go home by yourself.
26:53
Speaker 2: Don't go hang out and kick it and all that,
26:55

26:57
Speaker 2: turn in that off. That's if you get deep enough.
27:00
Speaker 2: A lot of people don't really get like that because
27:02
Speaker 2: they don't go deep enough. But if you go deep enough,
27:05
Speaker 2: you really gotta go home by yourself, and you got
27:07
Speaker 2: to like just chill and like just just just have
27:11
Speaker 2: a moment to like just bring it down or whatever,
27:14
Speaker 2: you know. So you know, I had I had to.

Speaker 2: I still was trying to kick it and go do
27:20
Speaker 2: stand up. I'll go set and then go do stand up.
27:22
Speaker 2: And I can see it in my stand up. I

33:03
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
33:06
Speaker 3: Yoh?
33:06
Speaker 2: That's it was like wow. I didn't even want to,
33:10
Speaker 2: Like even with my Netflix special, I didn't even want
33:13
Speaker 2: to do that. That wasn't even something I was planning
33:16
Speaker 2: to do. But I got cornered into shooting that special
33:20
Speaker 2: on that day, you know, like the day that my
33:22
Speaker 2: mom died, September tenth, and I was looking for a spot.
33:26
Speaker 2: Usually when you tour, if you're about to shoot a special,
33:29
Speaker 2: you won't perform in that city. So I was gonna
33:33
Speaker 2: do Philly. Philly was the city I was gonna shoot
33:35
Speaker 2: my special win, but we were taking too long with
33:38
Speaker 2: the deal and I ended up doing Philly. Right now,
33:40
Speaker 2: I had nowhere else to go and I wanted to shoot.
33:43
Speaker 2: I thought about New York. But I just was like,
33:46
Speaker 2: you got to be from New York in order to
33:48
Speaker 2: do New York, you know what I mean, Like it's
33:51
Speaker 2: New York is just different, you know, It's like you
33:53
Speaker 2: got to be from there. But when it came around
33:56
Speaker 2: to me shooting special Netflix is like, you got shooting September,
33:59
Speaker 2: and I was like, make sure it's at the inner
34:00
Speaker 2: September because I know I couldn't shoot around A year
34:03
Speaker 2: later from the day my mom passed. They came back
34:06
Speaker 2: not even knowing they was like this, yeah, we got
34:09
Speaker 2: the venue. I'm like, man, let's do it. I was
34:10
Speaker 2: like what day They was like September tenth, and I
34:13
Speaker 2: was like, I said nah. I was like, I was like,
34:15
Speaker 2: I ain't gonna do it. Then about days later, my
34:18
Speaker 2: mom was like, you know what, don't even mourn like that,
34:21
Speaker 2: like celebrate her. Shoot on that day. Dedicate this to
34:26
Speaker 2: her and celebrate her. Because when people passed, man, you
34:31
Speaker 2: have to like make them live through you. Of course,
34:34
Speaker 2: even if it's a password, you know what I mean,
34:36
Speaker 2: if you get it, if you set a password and
34:39
Speaker 2: you put their name in every day, you that's that's
34:42
Speaker 2: every day, stay with you every day, you know what
34:45
Speaker 2: I mean, and so I was like, didn't word no,
34:47
Speaker 2: I did not no, but y'all and I just was like, man,
34:55
Speaker 2: I'm gonna shoot it, and I shot it like on
34:57
Speaker 2: that day. But I also was trying to show people
35:00
Speaker 2: and teach people that with comedians and entertain us, even y'all,
35:05
Speaker 2: people don't understand we got problems and when we perform
35:10
Speaker 2: and you never know what that comic is going through.
35:13
Speaker 2: So that was a whole deal with my Netflix special.
35:15
Speaker 2: It was that I wanted to perform without telling nobody
35:19
Speaker 2: what was going on, and then at the end of
35:22
Speaker 2: the special let them know I was up here rocking
35:24
Speaker 2: with y'all. You're not even knowing what I was going through.
35:27
Speaker 2: I just cried right before I walked out on stage.
35:31
Speaker 2: I was backstage wiping my eyes, took a deep breath,
35:34
Speaker 2: and walked out there, performed the whole special with them
35:38
Speaker 2: not even knowing that this was like the one year
35:41
Speaker 2: anniversary of my mom's death, and I wanted tend to
35:45
Speaker 2: see that us performers, we had to put aside whatever
35:49
Speaker 2: we're going through, even with y'all. Y'all, man, y'all got
35:54
Speaker 2: to come here and work every day every day, and
35:58
Speaker 2: you and the more family got more problems you've got
36:01
Speaker 2: and so if you got six kids, you got six
36:04
Speaker 2: sets of goddamn problems, then you still got to come
36:07
Speaker 2: here work. And so I wanted that special to show that, Hey,
36:10
Speaker 2: while y'all see me up here performing whatever and without
36:12
Speaker 2: even saying nothing at the end of it, I want
36:15
Speaker 2: you to know this is what I was going through
36:17
Speaker 2: this entire time that I was filming this shooting and
36:21
Speaker 2: doing it in Brooklyn. Was like, they showed so much love,
36:24
Speaker 2: but I was so scared. I ain't gonna lie because
36:26
Speaker 2: I ain't know what Brooklyn I was gonna get. I
36:28
Speaker 2: ain't know if it's gonna be biggie Brooklyn, Uh, gentrified
36:32
Speaker 2: Brooklyn or righteous Brooklyn. Righteous Brooklyn. If I said bitch,
36:38
Speaker 2: they was.
36:38

36:45
Speaker 7: I ain't mean it like that, brother, Like you know,
36:49
Speaker 7: explain what you meant.
36:51
Speaker 2: Make the word b I TC means something else. Yeah, yeah,
36:54
Speaker 2: it was too much to whatever. But collectively everybody came
36:57
Speaker 2: out and rocked. But uh, yeah, that whole experience or
37:02
Speaker 2: something else. And like I said, I'm still dealing with
37:04
Speaker 2: anybody out there dealing with grief. Man, don't be afraid.
37:07
Speaker 2: I know you're a man, or you're a woman, you're
37:10
Speaker 2: a boss, and all this other shit. Man, let that
37:12
Speaker 2: shit out. Grieve. Learn how to grieve because it ain't
37:18
Speaker 2: gonna stop. Just learn how to do it, control it
37:21
Speaker 2: and keep it moving and make sure that they live
37:23
Speaker 2: through you.
37:23
Speaker 4: You said something powerful that I would like for you
37:26
Speaker 4: to talk about, just because that's something.
37:28
Speaker 2: I struggle with.
37:29
Speaker 4: How do you show up as a friend when somebody
37:32
Speaker 4: has somebody that they lose that's close to them, like
37:35
Speaker 4: a parent or significant other, Like what would you have
37:38
Speaker 4: wanted your friends to do in that moment.
37:40
Speaker 2: So if I'm now different and we ain't buying bottles
37:48
Speaker 2: and kicking it, and I ain't in the club, and
37:50
Speaker 2: I'm now I'm in the club with you, but but
37:52
Speaker 2: I'm daydreaming and I'm zoned out and I ain't helping
37:57
Speaker 2: you pull all the women in the club and all
37:59
Speaker 2: that shit or whatever. If I'm now I'm boring to you,
38:05
Speaker 2: I'm not what you was. If you're a friend, you're
38:08
Speaker 2: gonna be like, man, let's get out this club, Let's
38:11
Speaker 2: go ahead, let's go chill, let's go get you together,
38:14
Speaker 2: Let's go chill. If you're any way different. Even if
38:17
Speaker 2: I'm snappy, even if I'm not understanding, if I don't
38:20
Speaker 2: hear you correctly at any of that, understand that I
38:24
Speaker 2: wasn't normally like this. So therefore you have to know
38:28
Speaker 2: that there's some kind of issue going on with me, right,
38:30
Speaker 2: So therefore you have to channel that and understand that
38:34
Speaker 2: and get to know who I am now or who
38:37
Speaker 2: I'm about to be, because now I'm embarking on a
38:41
Speaker 2: new normal. And that's what everybody has to do. It
38:43
Speaker 2: out the embark on a new normal. Truthfid absolutely, And
38:48
Speaker 2: once a true friend understand that, yo, he's he's embarking
38:51
Speaker 2: on the new normal. And I have to be here
38:53
Speaker 2: to learn that new normal in order to be there,
38:56
Speaker 2: to be there for this, you know what I mean.
38:58
Speaker 2: So once a person the stands that, and they'll be there,
39:02
Speaker 2: they won't leave you, and they gonna be there and
39:05
Speaker 2: they gonna and they're gonna help you out and they
39:07
Speaker 2: not gonna leave because all of a sudden you don't
39:09
Speaker 2: understand them and all of that, and it's like it's
39:12
Speaker 2: it's it's so whack or whatever. And I lost not
39:16
Speaker 2: only I and not only I lose my mother I
39:19
Speaker 2: lost like other family members and friends, and so it
39:24
Speaker 2: was very and I'm still in that kind of lonely
39:26
Speaker 2: spot right now, you know, but it's a lot better
39:29
Speaker 2: because I'm working and I got all these other projects
39:32
Speaker 2: coming out and about the popping bubble and all that,
39:35
Speaker 2: and so it's taking up my mind framing, you know,
39:38
Speaker 2: me working on a whole new hour, the tour with
39:41
Speaker 2: and all of that. So you know, I'm not feeling
39:45
Speaker 2: as left out and lonely no more, because you know,
39:49
Speaker 2: I got a lot going on. But as a friend,
39:52
Speaker 2: that's what a friend does. A friend understands that you changed,
39:56
Speaker 2: and they gonna change with you, and they're gonna be
39:58
Speaker 2: there for you, and they gonna find out how are
40:00
Speaker 2: you now, find out what makes you happy? Now? What
40:03
Speaker 2: makes you sad? Now, you know, and they're gonna be
40:05
Speaker 2: that for you, you know what I mean. But falling
40:09
Speaker 2: back and it's a selfish move, a lot of people
40:13
Speaker 2: go because they go, oh, you're not making me feel
40:16
Speaker 2: comfortable around you or and now it's about them, yeah
40:20
Speaker 2: and not you, you know what I mean. So yeah,
40:23
Speaker 2: it's it's a it's a trip that situation. And I'm
40:26
Speaker 2: still learning, you know what I mean and uh and
40:30
Speaker 2: the friends that I do have. Man, we've been rocking
