• 2:39
  Speaker 1: shout out to hip hopdx dot com, Ambrosia for Heads,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: and the source magazine Twitter. Let's get right into the business.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: So this is coming from hip hopdx dot com and
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: the title says Snoop and death Ro partner with company
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: that brought Dayla Soul's catalog to streaming. Now, well, let
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: me just finish before I start interpreting this stuff. Snoop
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Dogg and deaf Ro Records have joined forces with Reservoir Media,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the same music company responsible for making Dayla Soul's catalog available.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: On streaming platforms.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: According to a press release on Wednesday, September twenty fourth,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: the deal will include domestic publishers of all of Snoop's
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: past and future works and the entirety of death Ro's catalog,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: which Snoop became the owner of in twenty twenty two,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: among others. This includes classic Tupac hits including hal Mary,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I Ain't Mad at You and Picturing Me Roland And
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: this is what Snoop had to say, and I quote,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: I'm so honored to have them as a partner and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: excited for all the great things to come with the
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: catalog as well as new music ventures twenty twenty four
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: and beyond. So to you, what does that mean to me?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: What does that mean? That means if you don't already
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: own this music in a digital space, but maybe you
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: subscribe to streaming platforms and you know the albums are there,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: but maybe they're scattered or hard to track down, certain
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: albums versus others, and you know this this album is
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: by Snoop Doggie Dog but this one's by Snoop Dogg,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: and this one is Snoop lying all will be gathered
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: together under one umbrella. And the perfect reference is day
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: La Soul's launch. It was literally called Daylight Soul Day
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: when it happened, all of day La Soul albums were available,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: which weren't all available, weren't none of them honestly available
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: except for what I think are best stuff.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: None of the albums were available on streaming.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: So there was like this nice big rollout for Daylight
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Soul's music that was pretty dope. You know, it put
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: all the focus on day I Soul named music. So
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: with this for death Row, which is which is pretty true,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: it would almost be like you know, now in your
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: streaming service, if you like, yo, I just want to
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: go down to death Row rabbit hole of past albums
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: I missed all kinds of stuff. There'll probably be a
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: central location where you can go there and listen to
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Doggie Style and the No Limit albums, which is which
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: would be where if that happens, because it's three of
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: them from Snoop. But I mean, I don't know all
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: his albums not going to include No Limit.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Maybe that'd be like the branch on the tree. But
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, you'll go there and
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: you'll be able to see, Oh, it's Nate Dogs his Snoops,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: two albums on Death Row and whatever later albums he
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: released under the imprint once he owned it. You know,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: he's the chronic like just all of that. So it
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: should be dope just because of the fanfare that will
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: surround the release of all this music, nice and needy
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: and probably some new vinyl and all kinds of stuff.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: It'll be dope to do that.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: I don't get as excited because for those that have
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: been following me, probably since a strictly hip hop Dave
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: shout out to you, but mostly from the blog era,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: where yes, I've been in a long time.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: I had a blog.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I was in a blog era right until two dough
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Boys just say hey, just post videos and now nobody
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: wants to read.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: But back then I did an article.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: I wrote a post about I wish I still had
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: some of the stuff so I could just share it,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: but I really don't. I don't know where they would be.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: But it was literally about me getting rid of my
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: CD collection because I had gotten to the point where
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: I was listening to a lot of my music on
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: you know, like iPods, and I had a Zoom Microsoft Zoom.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Back then, and I was just looking.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: At my CDs and I was like, man, I don't
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: even play those like I used to. And I remember
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: putting the album in that I know, I didn't play
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: a lot and it was skipping and because you know,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: you can't let CDs just sit. So I was just like, nah, man,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: I'm about to lose a lot of music, you know,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: a lot of stuff I paid for. So I just
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: went ahead and converted all my CDs to digital like
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: a digital library. I also did it with some of
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: my cassettes, like the joints I didn't have on CD,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: and I just made my digital library. You know, it's
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: literally the legacy of the music I've purchased over time.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: It ain't mostly the new joints that I brought through iTunes.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: So a lot of like like if you go to
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: my iTunes and listen to my library of music, you
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: listen to something like the Low End Theory, It's not
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: the one that was released digitally. It's the one I
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: digitized from my original cassette that's back there, So you know,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: what I mean.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: It's stuff like that where I don't get excited.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Because I used to buy a lot of music and
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I had a lot of brand loyalties to certain labels
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: and especially artists I liked a lot. But I'm not
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: as opposed to remasters and stuff like that depending on
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: the album. And maybe I'll do like a bonus episode
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: on that little particular topic sometimes.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Who else. Lloyd Banks is getting ready to release All
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: of Nothing, All or Nothing three, which is ad installment
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: of his mixtape series.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: I'm personally a fan of the Halloween Havoc series of mixtapes,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: probably number.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Either number two or number three.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: One of them was like, Yo, this is an album,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: but All or Nothing those joints was hot too.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: And I'm gonna just say this, Lloyd Banks is.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Like he released a trilogy of albums since the Lockdown, right,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: it was like, Yo, everybody, Lloyd Banks back outside and
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: he's been featured on people's albums and all of that.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: But I always thought Lloyd Banks for some reason, was
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: just better when he did mixtapes. And I think it's
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: because the mixtapes are loose, So this is really he
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: not really trying to work with a concept or overall
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: concept or trying to really construct an album with.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: A theme, so to speak. You know what I mean.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like, oh, it's mixtapes. It's just bars
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: and beats, and it's usually better. He sounds better half
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the time. So All or Nothing, you know, I'm looking
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: forward to that joint. Let's see what it says.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Here.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: On Instagram, he posted a teaser which I saw called
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: All or Nothing Volume three Despite my mistakes, and it
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: was it was seemed pretty dope. Now, the last time
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: he released Part two was in twenty sixteen. That was
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: a long time ago. So what I'll probably do myself
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: is go back and check it out. Now he's the
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: part that sucks, or it's trash or whatever way you
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: want to put that because you're homophobic and you want
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: to say pause. Didn't give a release date for this
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: third installment, but judging how music has been released in
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: recent years with rappers, it's probably really soon. It's probably
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: first week of October. If not, you know, coming up tomorrow.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: If you're from the future, lady got it, shut up,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: get out of it. But I think it's sooner than
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: we think. I just wonder about the timing because as
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: we enter the fourth quarter of you know, music releases,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: which tend to calm down as we get closer to
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: the Christmas holiday. You might get one or two, but
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: October and November tend to be stacked with releases. And
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: there are some big ones that we know are on
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: the way, like Havoc and Method Man is definitely on
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: the way. They just filmed a video, right Benny the
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Butcher in thirty eight Speci got a stabbed and shot too.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I know somebody who's never heard of him before, Like,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: what is it called stabbed? This shot too?
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: God? Damn?
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: But you know what I mean, Like you have some
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: highly anticipated joints, Like you know, Ransom says he has
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: another project, which I believe is with Stove God with
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Nicholas Craven on the beats. Westside Guns got to drop
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: his album. I get to feel in Conway gonna drop
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: another album. Snooping' Dre is supposed to be dropping pretty soon.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Nothing Man's on that album from last we heard Nazen
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Premier were releasing this year Bars, but I don't know
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: if it's coming out, fam, I don't think so.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know. So there's a lot of music like that's.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: On the way, and then who knows what surprises are
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: gonna happen, right Like it is Kendrick dropping before the
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: super Bowl or he dropping near the super Bowl. I
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: would assume Kendrick Game dropping until next year, to be honest.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: That's what Usher did when he was at the super
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Bowl because there was a lot of hype around his name,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: a lot of hype around him in Vegas, and then
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: he dropped the album, which I was a little bit
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: disappointed then because I was hyped. I was ready, like
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: finally he dropped an album and I was like, is
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: this cool? So in the hip hop realm, I think
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: for Lloyd Banks, whose profile has been lowered over the years,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: way lower than the profile he had when g Union
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: was at the top, but hip hop fans and heads
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: checked for him, you know what I'm saying. So to
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: know that he got a new mixtape coming out, I'm
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: anxious to hear it. I think these two have collabed before,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: but I would love to hear him on the record
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: again with Fabulous because they have a similar style and
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: I just know the bars would be crazy.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: You know, put kiss on that too.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I know you're going to have probably some of the
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: usual suspects, but I'm looking forward to it, so maybe
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: I'll reviewed. I don't know, we'll see. And lastly, all right,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: so and you can't be tired of stuff like not
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Like Us. I already warned you on this show. Kendrick
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Lamar is not like Us. You're going to be hearing
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: it all the way through to the super Bowl. You
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: probably hear it less now than you did during the summer.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: But trust me, is not done yet. Homecoming is coming
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: up soon, Homecoming season. The band's probably already been playing
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: it at It's not done yet. We're not done yet.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: But what what I've tried to avoid on this podcast
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: is to spend the rest of the year talking about
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Drake versus Kendrick. When Not Like Us dropped that Saturday
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: where we were all online tweeting like crazy, going to Twitter,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: going to Instagram.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: I was on the phone. Only on the phone was
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: sister Like. It was a fabulous time to be alive.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: And not just because I picked Kendrick to win being
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: a big Kendrick fan, but I'm also a Drake fan,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like I want him to
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: get back to the grooves. And it was taking him
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: a while to get over publicly, get over you know,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: the loss. He been quiet lately, but does that have
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: something to do with this ditty stuff because a couple
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: of people been quiet and been missing. But I've tried
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: to avoid constantly talking about any little breadcrumb from this battle,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: mainly because if you go back on this channel or
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: on the podcast stream. We wore it out and we
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: did a final episode shout out to Tone into the
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Dum podcast where we just talked about, you know, this
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: moment in hip hop, like it was a moment in
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: hip hop, and.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: There were some lingering.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Threads from this battle or questions right like, you know,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: will can you release any more of the diss records?
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: You know, will there be some hints on the albums?
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: What will Drake do next? You know, he keeps dropping joints,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: and you know, they kind of get forgotten about it,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: not really hitting the way they used to hit.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: And probably most.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Importantly or most intriguing for me at least, it's Jacob.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: We know, he released a mixtape that was pretty dope
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: that honestly I'll include in my not top five, but
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: my best of the year. Depending on whether he drops
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: the album which may come out this year. He has
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: an album that that mixtape was kind of like The
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: warm Up four.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: The name of the album is called The fall Off.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: Ironically, and two things happened this week that could spell
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: the beginnings of a J Cole comeback.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: And I'll just say what people are thinking about it.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: So one of the things that happened was an interview
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: with The Traded Truth, who said that J Cole's album
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: The fall Off will shock people. And he said, it's
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: on its way right, let's see if we can find
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: He was on the Breakfast Club and he said, don't
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: get it fed up. His album coming. And when the
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: album coming, it's probably going to shock a lot of people.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Remember what I tell you all the time. Remember what
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I tell you all the time. A lot of people
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: form opinions on a lot of things and they don't
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: fully know the situation. He'll be I right, it's before
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: it's too late. You never know what bro may do.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Now the young kids will say that's cap And when
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: they say that, they're just like you, just trying to
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: make sure the homie, you know, people are still interested
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: and don't sleep on him. And it's going to be
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: dope and You're gonna stop talking so much trash about
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: j Cole now for those who've been under a rock
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: for the majority of the year, and like, well, why
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: would you talk trash.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: About dra Cole? What do you do well?
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: During the Kendrick Lamar Well, at the very beginning of
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: the Kendrick Lamar and Drake Battle, which also included j Cole,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: j Cole was the first to respond to Kendreds like
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: that verse, which appeared on the Metro Booming and Future
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: album We Don't Trust You, right, even though the title
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: track till we Still Don't Trust You that's my that's
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: my DRG.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I love playing it.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I don't even have no ops like that, but I'm like,
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: we still don't trust You, all right, But he put
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: it on this mixtape might delete later as the last song,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: and like I said, this mixtape might delete later. It
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: was dope, some superior rapid. But why people are feeling
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: a kind of way about Jacob is has to.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: Do with the fact that he quit the battle before
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: it could begin.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Because the disrecord he put on there, which he since
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: has taken off the mixtape called Seven Minute Drill.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: Most people thought it was really.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Lacklesster and had some cap stuff in there, like, you know,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: like really like trying to say, mister Moround, the Big
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Steppers wasn't a good album, and everybody.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: Was like, what where were you? You know what I'm saying.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: So he left, you know, something in his spirit said
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I can't do this to my hommiet.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: And then he left. I kind of laughed because I
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: was like, what part of battle rapping is this?
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Ain't nobody fighting? Nobody's fighting? Why you're running while you running?
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Man? But I got it. He just didn't want to
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: get rouled up in the hole back and forth.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: And I understand mainly because that's his homie, mainly because
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: that's just not where he is as an artist. He
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: don't really want a battle rap. But you in hip hop,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: you can't be calling yourself to goat the best and
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: book and you backing it up with the bars. But
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: then when you get challenged by one of the top
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: dudes in the game, you battling it. And mainly I'm honestly,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm thinking it had more to do with
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: people's saying, hey, look, the beef's not even with you,
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: you know, so I'm sorry you put that whack joint out,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: but just get out the way. Let's get it. Let
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: us get at Aubrey, move out the way. We don't
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: want we don't want smoke with you. We want him, right,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: I think, honestly that's what it was. And to be
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: dope if he say that, because then Drake would be
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: like you backstabbing, like you know what I'm saying. But
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: so that's the whole thing, right, And I had my
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: own theories and so did the internet about the fall off.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: Is this all on purpose that him and Kendrick conspire,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Did J Cole call Kendrick when he got the call, like, Yo,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: this dude want me to bring come out on stage
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: with him and stuff like that? But I know he
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: got beef with you. But let's let's box a men
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: on like the old head sis. Let's put him in
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: a trick bag. I don't know what that means, but
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: that's what the box of men meant back in I
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: guess the.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Twenties or whatever. But listen, and people didn't like that.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I kind of didn't like it.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Certain a lot of people really didn't like it because
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: you can't really consider yourself a competitive top m seed
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: in your words and then back out of a battle,
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: and some people felt like, oh, well, you know, J
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Cole was the smart one to get out the way,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: so he does it. But he kind of caught his
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: own black from fans, and every time he would pop up,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: people would just remind everybody, oh, yo, he ran from
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: the battle. He ran from the battle. Me whatever. Man,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: just don't say goat. Okay, you're not the goat, not
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: if you duck in battles.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: You're not.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: You're not even close. But he's still dope and that's evident.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: And the song released by a battle rapper Daylight featuring
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: J Cole called a Plate of Collagreens. And when I
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: tell you, what J Cole is doing on this song
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: is supreme bar work. Supreme bar work. It's honestly the
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: thing I said a couple of episodes back he should
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: do stop because you know what, honestly, it's tired for
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: a lot of people to keep calling themselves the goat
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: and the best. At some point you just got to
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: show people. And I think that's what Kendrick did in
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: the battle, right. He just showed people like, I'm not
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: just gonna keep saying I'm the best.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: I'm the game.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: I'm the best, the best, Sure it's going to be
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: in there, but I'm just gonna show you why through
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: my output. And that's how I feel like j Cole
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: can win back some of those fans like yo, all right,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: the top threes, the goats, the top fives that are lives.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: We're not even talking that language no more. I'm just
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: going to show you what I do and if you
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: and you won't be able to call it whack, you
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: can and keep talking about the battle and how much
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: you feel like I ducted all you want, but at
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: the end of the.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Day, you're not gonna call me why.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: And I think this is the first step into him
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: coming back, releasing this album right. Trader Trup says something,
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: do we have to listen to Trade of Truth? Hell no,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: we don't it Some people like who is that we
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: don't have to listen to him. It's like when a
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: producer or film exec says, this could potentially be the
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: greatest film of the year, Well, of course it could.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: You work for them.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: So if you cool with him and you think it's dope,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: you can come outside and tell us yo, y'all watch
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: yo way till y'all way to ya head is but
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: we still all we still see is y'all in my spirit,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: I ain't want to battle no more, man, I ain't
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: want it.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: So to me.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: And I know some people feel like, oh, leave them alone,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: stole them out, de bot. No, this is the way
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: you do it. If people are questioning your pin game
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: because they feel like you quit a battle even though
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: they know you were nice prior to that, just remind them.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: This is what I do. I'm gonna casually do it.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: Then I'm gonna get on my bike with my socks
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: over my jeans and I'm out. I know y'all seen that.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be in the random beach shoes on and
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: sand whatever. I need some inspiration and rake these bars
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: and all jokes aside, like it's tough. The only thing
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: that was questionable because I heard j Coles verse verse
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: before I heard Daylights, and I don't know if it
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: was a choice for them to approach the lyrics in
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: the same way. But I've watched a lot of battles
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: rap and I know Daylight. I know it's flow and
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: Ja Cole flow sounds a lot like Daylights, and I'm
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: just hoping that's like a a choice, not a like, man,
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: I'm down in adults need some boss Battle rapper helped
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: me out you writing all the time. I doubt it
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: because that would be even worse, Like come on, man,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: I like this dude, J Cole, I don't. I don't
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: want to see that happen, because there's some people who
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: will throw him away forever if they knew his comeback
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: bars came from someone else. He didn't write himself, so
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: I don't believe that. I think his verse on this
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: song gets crazy. I don't know if I take trade
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: of truth word for it, because I just want to
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: hear from myself. So when the album The Fall Off drops,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I'll be there listen to it. I'll be here to review,
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: view it, and then we'll see what's up. We'll say
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: what we got to say about J Cole. But it
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: took me a minute to listen to J Cole again
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: just because of I was just being disappointed as a
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: fan that he ducked the Battle so quickly, and probably
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: more so that he put out a lackluster to diss record.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: But maybe that's just not what he does. So leave
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: the Goat Talk and the Top fives alone. The conversation
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: itself is tired. Show in your output, and then will
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: judge us, the fans, the hip hop heads, will judge
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: who we think is the best, like we've always done it.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: That's gonna do it for me.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: What do you think about j Cole's new verse on
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: his Daylight record? Leave your comments in a comments section below.
• 27:50
