Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Yes, dunk here today for Wednesday, November. Second
- 0:06Speaker 1: goes to the social team over at the News. Now,
- 0:09Speaker 1: if you haven't heard, I don't know how you could
- 0:10Speaker 1: have missed it. But one third and the most influential
- 0:13Speaker 1: rap group of the last decade, the Me Goals Takeoff,
- 0:17Speaker 1: was fatally shot in Houston on Halloween. Definitely an l
- 0:21Speaker 1: for the culture, hip hop culture, black culture, just the
- 0:23Speaker 1: overall culture of humanity because America absolutely has a problem
- 0:27Speaker 1: with gun violence, and that gun violence often leads to
- 0:31Speaker 1: these kind of situations. And I don't even have the
- 0:33Speaker 1: words for this, you know, takeoff situation, because anything I
- 0:36Speaker 1: say just sounds like an old script. You heard it
- 0:39Speaker 1: all before. It's literally like reporting that Nick Cannon is
- 0:43Speaker 1: expecting another child. It's just to cliche headline at this point,
- 0:47Speaker 1: insert any rappers name here, shot and killed at insert
- 0:51Speaker 1: age here in keeping movement. That's the routine. It's been
- 0:55Speaker 1: a routine for a long time. It's gonna probably sadly
- 0:58Speaker 1: continue to be the routine. Rynch Wash repeat. Somebody gets killed,
- 1:02Speaker 1: Folks get online and talk about stopping the violence. Everyone
- 1:05Speaker 1: does their videos. Their long caption is about the person
- 1:08Speaker 1: and how we all got to do better, dig up
- 1:10Speaker 1: their old grainy photos with a person to post and
- 1:13Speaker 1: act like they were so cool, which that individual, and
- 1:16Speaker 1: they give flowers to the person that they never even
- 1:18Speaker 1: thought about giving to the person when they were alive.
- 1:21Speaker 1: And then in about a week, folks are on to
- 1:23Speaker 1: the next. It's just the world we live in, and
- 1:25Speaker 1: I get it. Digital tributes are important. You know, I'm
- 1:28Speaker 1: not a big digital tribute person, but the outpouring of
- 1:30Speaker 1: love that some individuals receive is very dope to see.
- 1:34Speaker 1: But most of it is performative. Most of it is
- 1:36Speaker 1: people trying to increase their engagement. And if you don't
- 1:39Speaker 1: believe that, look no further than the E News. Now,
- 1:41Speaker 1: I'm not expecting the news to be up on culture,
- 1:44Speaker 1: but we're not talking about no poop. But ask group here, okay,
- 1:47Speaker 1: we're talking about you know, we're not talking about some
- 1:49Speaker 1: underground rap group that folks don't know. We're talking about
- 1:52Speaker 1: the Megals. Okay, I told you all, the most influential
- 1:54Speaker 1: rap group of the past decade. They helped to evolve
- 1:56Speaker 1: that triplet flow that you know, three six Mafia bone
- 1:59Speaker 1: thugs did before them their ad lives. You know, there's
- 2:02Speaker 1: a bunch of people out here who sound like the
- 2:04Speaker 1: mego these guys wrong. That's an now for God's sake,
- 2:06Speaker 1: all right. Nominated for Grammys co headline with Drake. What
- 2:08Speaker 1: I'm basically trying to say is white people love the
- 2:10Speaker 1: Megos too. Okay, they were a big deal, So they
- 2:13Speaker 1: are a big deal. So E News of course decided
- 2:16Speaker 1: to report on takeoffs deaf and they tweeted out yesterday
- 2:19Speaker 1: Megos rapper takeoff dy'd at twenty eight police give update
- 2:24Speaker 1: on investigation. What y'all needed to update E News was
- 2:27Speaker 1: the picture y'all used, because that wasn't take off. The
- 2:30Speaker 1: picture they used was offset. Now, I don't know if
- 2:34Speaker 1: outlets do things like this on purpose because they know
- 2:36Speaker 1: it will increase engagement. You know, please understand, folks profit
- 2:40Speaker 1: off your outrage. But let's just say you are completely
- 2:43Speaker 1: culturally clueless, I mean, oblivious to what's going on in
- 2:46Speaker 1: hip hop culture. You can't look at everyone else's picture
- 2:50Speaker 1: they posted and say, hey, this isn't the same guy. Okay,
- 2:54Speaker 1: you know, this is the reason that the stereotype that
- 2:56Speaker 1: all black guys look alike to white people will never die.
- 2:59Speaker 1: And you're fair. I don't know if the person who
- 3:01Speaker 1: posted this tweet was white, but I can taste the
- 3:04Speaker 1: underwashed chicken and excitement for Taylor swift new album in
- 3:07Speaker 1: this tweet, so I'm just going to assume they are.
- 3:09Speaker 1: And this is why we use the term coach of votes,
- 3:12Speaker 1: because I would rather you not celebrate me at all
- 3:14Speaker 1: than celebrate me just because you want to be a
- 3:16Speaker 1: part of the algorithm. Just because you know someone's deaf
- 3:20Speaker 1: as a trending topic doesn't mean you have to participate,
- 3:22Speaker 1: especially if you're just doing it because it's a trending topic.
- 3:25Speaker 1: This was clearly a rush job. If it wasn't a
- 3:27Speaker 1: rush job, I'm pretty sure you would have gotten the
- 3:31Speaker 1: right picture. Okay. Message to E news and anyone who
- 3:34Speaker 1: rushes to report on someone's death for their own personal gain.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Simple task. When you about to post this stuff, ask yourself.
- 3:41Speaker 1: Are you doing it because you actually care about this person?
- 3:44Speaker 1: Are you doing it because everyone else is doing it?
- 3:46Speaker 1: Are you doing it because you are actually impacted by it?
- 3:49Speaker 1: Are you doing it just for engagement? E News? You
- 3:53Speaker 1: just tweeted that because it's the popular thing, okay, because
- 3:58Speaker 1: you don't care. Showed how much you don't care by
- 4:01Speaker 1: not even having the right picture of takeoff up listen.
- 4:06Speaker 1: If you ain't never been culture, don't ever comment on
- 4:09Speaker 1: culture because you don't understand culture, So stay the f
- 4:12Speaker 1: out of the culture, please and now, please let me
- 4:16Speaker 1: give a new social team the biggest he had. He ha,
- 4:19Speaker 1: he ha, you stupid mother? Are you dumb? And salute
- 4:23Speaker 1: to the legendary treach from Naughty by Nature. Had to
- 4:25Speaker 1: remix his words just now dropping the clues box for
- 4:28Speaker 1: track shout. If you ain't never been culture, don't ever
- 4:33Speaker 1: comment on culture because you don't understand culture, So stay
- 4:36Speaker 1: the f out of the culture, please, respectfully. All right,
- 4:42Speaker 1: thank you for that dog kay to day up next
- 4:46Speaker 1: you're right over there. You might turn your turn your
- 4:53Speaker 1: damn mic on no more. This is a shame. I
- 4:55Speaker 1: was gonna say, he's a shame just in regards to
- 4:58Speaker 1: that donkey of the day. I feel like the Breakfast

- 5:11Speaker 1: Got to the right. You're not supposed to do that.
- 5:13Speaker 1: You don't do that. The white people, I told you,
- 5:15Speaker 1: I gave you all script instructions to only do that
- 5:16Speaker 1: the white people. All right, but next minute point ask
