  Speaker 1: news broke, you know, to shake that energy, you know.

  Speaker 1: top of that, but listen to me, I'm gonna tell
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: you how erie the morning was. I wake up, I'm
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: staying at the SLS and literally that's in the middle
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: of Hollywood, you know what I'm saying. And I'm like,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, in the middle of you know,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: between Hollywood, and so I'm looking outside. You couldn't see
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: the building across the street, so you can imagine what
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the fog was by the mountains, right, And I'm thinking
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to myself, So I'm hearing and when I tell you,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: everybody was calling me and like God rested day. I
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: was saddened, like I knew him, but I didn't even
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: know Kobe like that, and people were calling me and
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: I'm like yeo, and I'm literally at the gala, I
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: mean at the brunch and I'm literally talking to people.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I'm getting calls there. I mean it was, And to
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: be honest with you, the Four Seasons brunch is usually
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: pop popping, right, I mean our brunch, our portion of
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: it we had sections off was popping, but then like
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: it was like people, it was super heavy the impact
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Kobe had. You know, I was at my Sunday brunch
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: and I got a text from my sister and I
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: was like, no, you know, there's just no way. So
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: immediately I go online and I didn't find anything, so
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I was like, this can't it can't be real. Five
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: minutes later, that's when the articles, I guess, start you know,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: popping up. And we always have the we always have
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: ESPN on at brunches, you know, on Sundays. And it
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: was so bad that you literally see the entire room
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: look up at the screens and everybody is in shocking.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: The energy just went down. So about an hour or
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: so of that plan, I had to change the channel
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: you had. I had to change it was so much.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: There were people crying in the bathroom. Like literally, I
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: went into the bathroom there were two women crying. I'm
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: thinking they're drunk, something wrong. I'm asking them are they okay?
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: And they literally were saying, I can't believe Kobe died.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: It was insane to me. To be able to see
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: the sadness in real time was intense. Let's let's get
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: them and all the families. Let's work and talk about
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Kobe a lot. But now it's time for in case
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: you misscard. Yeah, and I think to um, you know
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the whole thing about you know, he traveled by helicopter
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: a lot. Let's just talk about that and let ball
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the nation know that he traveled by hotel I'm sorry,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: helicopter a lot because he lived in calabassid Or where
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: he lived, and he had to commute to the center
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: of the Staples Center a lot of time, and they
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: had you know, Russia I was crazy and LX. So
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: it was convenient for him versus an hour and thirty
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: minute exactly. So he got used to it and it
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: was convening and they did it all the time. It
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: was nothing new to the Bryant family taking a helicopter.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Now in this particular situation, as we mentioned there, you know,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: there was fog. There was all types of things that
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I mean even when you watch the news, you're seeing things. Well,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: they could have went towards the ocean and came back
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: in versus trying to go you know, into basically airspace
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: you could not see um, and then it was like
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: you know, um, they've been you know the police helicopters.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I watched was watching the news in l A. The
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: police chief got on was like they grounded their helicopters
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: because it was so foggy. And if the police helicopters
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: not flying and they have all the state of the
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: art everything, um, no one else should have been flying.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: But people are going back and forth. But the thing
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: I saw today on an Internet that I loved the
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: most is that people are petitioning to have Kobe Bryant's
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: logo basically his body logo, I'm sorry, his his uh silhouette,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: the NBA logo and now that was that was Jerry
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: West forever. He locally said that he never really wanted
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: that to be the logo, so I think it could happen.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: But you know what, let me just say something real
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: quick about this helicopter before we get into the logo.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: The pilot was actually super experienced, allegedly very experienced, and
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: there was no block box on this helicopter. But what
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: they did have was an iPad, so the iPad showed
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: them the weather and all these things. They were really
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: shocked that, from what it appears, the pilot didn't slow down.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: He actually sped up, he went up higher. He missed
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: a mountaintop by a hundred feet. He literally cleared a
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: mountaintop on a hundred feet, and when he thought he
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: was in the clear of the mountains, he then began
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: to descend. But he is allegedly so experienced, especially in
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: that area. How would you not know to be cautious
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: of mountains in the fog. So it is. It's pretty weird.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: It's weird, and I do hope that more details come out,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: and I hope that there is no I'll play whatsoever.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: But most importantly, I'm just you know, sitting love and
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: positive vibrations to all the families affected. But okay, my bad,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: y'all the logo, No, I mean I was fun. I mean,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: uh to peggyback of what you said, I actually remember
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: wife and I was cleaning out our garage, just putting
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: up some new stuff and organizing and stuff, and um,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: I got a FaceTime call and I just didn't believe
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: it because I'm over here, like you know what I'm saying.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: It was m J. Then I grew up with uh,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Kobe Lebron, d Wade's my favorite basketball player, Dwayne Wade,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Ali iverson Lebron and m J. I wasn't necessary of
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Kobe fan, but I definitely respected him so much. I
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: was a fan of him, uh playing basketball and just
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: you know, followed him because he was great anyway. But yeah,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: when when I first heard the news, man, I just
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: dropped to my knees. I started shed a tear, like
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Not because of the basketball though,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: because he was a father. Yeah, but then somebody free
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: tweets something you tweeted along, Yeah, and eleven I said
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: that I had respect for his game, you know, because
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: I always I was the fan. I was the person
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: arguing with for Lebron, and you know they had Kobe
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: fans and Lebron fans. This is Miami. He won the
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Chip our second chip with Lebron, and it was I
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: was always arguing with people about Lebron versus Kobe. But
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I always gave Kobe respect. And that's what I had
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: posted on my Instagram. But man, like I got super
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: emotional because we found out his daughter was on me.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: YEA man, that fucked me up, and it really bothered me,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because it kind of gave
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: me Dad vibes, Like you know how was he feeling on.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: I know, Kobe, the man will probably kicked everybody out
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: of the helicopter and he would have went down by
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: himself if he has you know what I'm saying, like
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: him trying to protect his daughter in that moment. Were
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: just talking about that, Remember we were just talking about
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: that before Sue walked in. It was like, you know,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: if you are a rising ascending. Basically, he was clearly
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: trying to get over something. He couldn't see it. He
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: was he knew something, so he's trying to get up
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: over whatever. And that was an immediacy. That wasn't no swirling.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: I mean that the plane might have hit something that
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: came down. They said it was like two football fields
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: long of debris once it finally crashed, So you gotta
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: imagine the I just pray that they hit and blacked
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: out and was nothing else to you know what I mean,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: Because they say it was so immediate that you know,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: it's like boom boom, and then it's you know, and
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: the thought like Robbery was saying, like what do you
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: do to protect whoever? Like? And I'm sure if he
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: had time, he trying to open the door and jump
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: out versus knowing you're gonna crash. I mean, you get
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like, but I'm sure there wasn't enough
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: time for that. I guess at one point, well, the
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: alleged video, I don't know if this is the actual
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: video or not, but I could imagine that they probably
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: thought they were okay because it looked like the helicopter
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: landed safely for a quick second. Then it jumps back up,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the tail breaks and it spins and blows up. I
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know. I don't know if that
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: was because that one it kind of tales I used
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: to watch. It was I can't watch that used to watch.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: I don't think that was the video. I heard it
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: out that it wasn't. Yeah, because and in that case,
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I think somebody would have tried to get up out
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: of it. But then you're worried about the propellers and
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: all the other things, you know, not nothing. Then not
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: only that, it was other younger kids, families on the
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: helicopter coach of people. First I thought it was seven people.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Then come I was nine, and I think only three
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: people have been found, So that's even more scary. I
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: like to think, you know, but I mean I'm sure
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: they're searching high and low to find anything, but they
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: also know what happened to Yeah, they're also worried about
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: looters and people coming trying to get like artist, you're not,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: that's disgusting. The Hall of Fame y'all has honored him
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: for their ceremony, which is definitely due. Um. We also
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: know that Lebron and finally spoke. I was very touched
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: by Dwayne Waves by the way too. That was so heartfelt.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: And then obviously le Bron you know, hadn't responded, but
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: he just he just responded. And to see the videos
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: of them with Team USA and just the camaraderie and
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: the All Star Games, just all the it's just like wow, man,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: like and like I said, it was out of nowhere,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: and just the camaraderie in sports alone, how these people
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: feel about their players, you know, and for one to
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: go down like this, it's just shocker for one. And
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: it's like, you don't know how to feel in all
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: these emotions coming out of everywhere. Yeah, man, but I think,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: like Ari said, everybody respected him if you didn't like him,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: because he was such an assassin and because they got
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: all the chips that's one thing, but you had no
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: choice but to respect him. My my family group chat,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Kyle sent like this is my second tattoo, and it
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: was mama mentality because their generation like that's all they
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: want to wear is Kobe's on the court, Like that's
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: all they love leg He's like to what Jordan was
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: to us, Kobe is to them. And you have to
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: respect this game. And I also feel I feel sorry
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: for him, And I'll tell you why I feel sorry
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: for him because publicly knowing him, meaning seeing his you know,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: things that happened in his life, from his amazing NBA
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: career to the rape allegations back in the day, all
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: that seeing he was not a public person. He was
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: not the person like you know he was on the the
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: same thing with shock Shack was the jokes. They're the
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: fun guy. You know, you wanted the interview you had us.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: But Kobe was always serious, serious and was perceived to
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: not be, you know, exactly right. And so and you
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: heard a bunch of broadcasters on on on TV throughout
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: the last couple of days saying that they had certain
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: relationships with him at one point and then they became
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: better relationships and they got a different side of him
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: and got to see it. But I just I feel
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: sorry and I feel horrible because I feel like I
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: really feel like he was coming into his own. I
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: really felt like, you know, his creative endeavor is winning
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: that Oscar, you know what I'm saying, Like his mom,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: but academy, his daughter is him. He didn't have no sons.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know if y'all heard the broadcast, was like, yo,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: you know, don't you gonna have a son? She's like,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: and she was like, oh, I'm the next one. Like
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, I got this, you know
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: what I mean. So I just think he was finally
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: comfortable and happy and just you know free. Honestly, Yeah,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: I think I think he everything that he set out
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: to do, he just did it and became the best
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: at it. Yeah. I think that his job was well
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: done and Tom was well spent here and I felt
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: like he was content with that, even with just having daughters.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I love the way you put that last thing, the
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: last thing, the thing that really kind of just emotional
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: is like, you know, his last post and his last
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: tweet is about Lebron. His last Instagram post, he congratulated
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: his last tweet tweet he graduated Lebron Yeah, like and
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: I and I just I saw her in the video
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: clips somebody put together of her in heels and address
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: driven on the court, and that just sucked me. Oh
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about when I say, I'm just like a babe,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying. And then I was
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: also on a whole another note. Man, It's like people saying, like,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: why would you take your helicopter because it was easy.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: It's for him if that's the way he traveled. And
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: I want to say this, I want people to stop
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: apologizing for spoiling these kids and moving around away. If
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: you could do it, do it, because we are this
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: proof that life is not guaranteed. You know what I'm saying,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Like the other just the wrong thing. He also said
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: the reason why he took the helicopter so he could
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: be there for his kids more, because he said he
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: would um have so it was so much traffic trying
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: to get to practice, then trying to pick his kids
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: up from school. He wanted to be there to pick
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: them up from school, and his wife was like, I
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: could pick him up. He's like, no, I want to.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: I want to spend that time with them as much
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: as I can as possible. It was just faster for
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: him to travel to practice and then get to his kids.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: It's out to me that people are so concerned about
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: whether they think somebody is, whether someone looks personal, and
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: then why someone wants to travel the way they want
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: to travel, like it's they have the means to do it.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: On top of that, the man takes his cray very seriously,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: So if he wants to be serious on the court
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: or when he's handling business, that's okay. Nobody has to
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: make jokes for you to be comfortable. No one has
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: to smile for you to be comfortable. I respect that
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: he can allow himself to get in that zone, have
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: a ton of vision, and execute what he came to do.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: So all you feel like if I work there hard
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: to get to that point, fly if I want to write.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: And that's my point. I want to just say, everybody
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: in ball nation that can afford to do the things
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: they want to do do it. Don't feel but like
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I used to. Honestly, when I was younger and I
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: didn't have it, I was like, you know, when I
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: get it, I'm gonna make him work. For now, I'm
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: giving him everything I could give him with with stipulations
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: along the way that you have to do this, clean
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: your room and things. You know what I'm saying to
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: teach you almost because even like Jessica in the kitchen
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: this morning, she says, my my youngest son was going
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: crazy about his iPods or EarPods, right, And I guess
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Kenny came like, yo, you know your attitude. You know
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: it's not gonna help you find This is what Kenny's
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: telling Kyle. And when they're both poor rotten, but you
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: can see the teachings come out. It's just a matter
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: of maturity, right. And I think that we get so
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: stuck in our head about what we're not supposed to
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: do because they didn't work for they don't know life
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: could be over tomorrow. I want to have them to
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: have jumped off boats. I want them to have traveled
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: the world following their greens. All that. I'm not being up.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not apologized for none of that. Ship. I don't
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: get what you say. They can live where jewelry, they
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: can have tattoos, they can do whatever the funk they
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: want to do, as long as it's under our rules
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: and guidelines. That's all I'm saying. The point is you're
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: raising good human beings. Because I think people get it
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: confused that if if a child has some of the
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: materialistic things that they may not have had, you just
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: automatically assume the child is spoiled, or not a good person,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: or has no compassion. I don't think that's always true.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: So nonetheless, if if these luxuries improve your quality of life,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: if they allow you to spend more time with your family,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: they allow you to feel like you can be more available,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: do it. It's cool. Do it. On another, onto another
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: uh NBA legend. Lady and gem All Iverson was robbed
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: the five hundred thousand dollars worth of jewelry at the
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Sofa Tel and Philly. He was not actually walked up
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: on pistol drawn done. Okay, So I wasn't on him, okay,
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: because I was nervous for him. They stole the book
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: out of his hotel room, Yes, out of the Sofa
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Tel and thing, you know, this is my thing. I
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: don't think it was. I don't know if it was
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: the actual hotel room, but it was in the Sofa Tel,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: could have been in the lobby wherever. But the bottom
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: line is I hate a thief. Hated thief and a liar.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You might not you might
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: hold the truth and then when asked you have to either.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: But you liars and thieves, you know what I'm sayings
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: do you give what? Thief? And it got you on tape?
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Bro dear thief? They have your face. So it's not
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: a hotel employee. No, it's not a hotel. It is
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: a black man, which I am very disgusted with. But um,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: I wonder if he knew that it was Alan's bad hunter,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Like I'm typing, my fucker, I'm not even gonna hold
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: you up. You ever seen the pranks on social media
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: when somebody walking by and dropped a big money and
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: supposed to be blind, and somebody like yo, yo, I'm
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: the guy, like yo, you dropped your money. I always
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: think in my mind, what if I found two men
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: in the briefcase? Now, if nobody was around in the
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: field and there was no hot you know what I mean,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: maybe I would hold onto it, you know. But I'm
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: not just gonna walk in nobody room see a bag,
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, or see someone drop So,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: like I said, I was running doing running cane. I
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: dropped a thousand and I don't know why I had
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: it in my shorts, but I had a thousand dollars
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: cash and it dropped out, and the ladies excuse me,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: you dropped your cash. I'm like, God, black like you know.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: That's why I don't That's why I don't do that either,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: because I believe in carma. I feel like I want
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: somebody to give it back to. This guy dropped a while.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I had all these credit cards in the a gas
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: station and um, I got him. He drove off. I
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: got in my car and I was just honking him down.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: He was like what I said, Hey, man dropped your wallet.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: She was like, oh my god, trying to give me
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: a hug and everything. Yeah, that's good man. Call me something.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Somebody y'all thieve And asked mother, I actually did that
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: with kids. And the mom was watching her son and
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: she was like, Oh, I know, my child is gonna
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: return the money. My kid is a great kid. That's
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: how I put that money in his pocket. Mama was.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: He wasn't worried about nothing. Speaking of savages, y'all. After
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: winning the Grammy Award, Tyler the creator calls out the
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Grammys for reducing black artists to urban categories. I agree,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: and I'm glad you said something. I'm glad you went
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: and got your award, and then I'm glad you said something.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: A lot of people trying to give him flat for
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: even going and receiving award. Though, if you're in the
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: music business, you want a Grammy, It's okay, you want it. Hello, Hello,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: you want it. But I am proud that he got
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: it and said something. And I know Susans I can
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: feel her face crunched up. But it's the truth. No,
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, why would people be mad at what
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: he said? It is the truth. It's the truth, but
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: the truth, the holy truth. And I'll know this, it's
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: not new. I get so bothered that people get so
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: bothered when someone finally says the truth about how they
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: feel about something. Why are you so mad? We've been
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: talking about this with the Grammys for years at this point,
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: but you're mad? That is it? Because it was Tyler
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: that said it exactly and one of the best performances
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: of the Grammys. I'm not even a Tyler fan. I
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: don't listen to his music, but that performance he had
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: boys and men and Charlie was he murdered that performance,
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: and I think he's a rock star and I'm high
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: fiving him along the way. But also Puff had this
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: to say as he received his Icon Award at the
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Clive Davis event at the Grammars. I'm speaking for all
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: the artists here and do some executives. This amount of
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: time that it takes to make these records, to pull
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: your heart out into it, and you just want to
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: even play in the great words and everybody too. We
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: are artists, We have sensitive about our ship. We are passionate.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: For most of us, this is all we got. This
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: is our only hole. She'd be told. Hip hop has
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: never been respected by the grannies and music that's never
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: been disteffy about the m see a point of the ship,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: so to right now, the dissurence of situation. It is
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: kind of regulation. This thing has been going on. Yeah,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm happy Puff just said all that. I'm happy
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Puff jumped out there too, because Puff historically has not
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: jumped out there for his fucking people enough. In my opinion,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: the fact that he had that comment at the Clive
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: Davis probably was one of the most prestigious events during
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: the Grammy weekend and lit the fucking Grammys up, Like,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I salute him. I think he is using his superpowers
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: for good now and I wish that, I hope and
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I pray that he continues to on the bigger level
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: because of that type of voice and that type of money.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Those are the type of comments I wanted. That's the thing.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: That's the question. What we're gonna do about it? Well,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: we're gonna do about it. I remember, see our own Grammys.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I'm so ready for for all this because I'm just
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: I'm tired of asking. We got the key players with
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: the money, Now, what we're gonna do about it? Yeah,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: let's prey our own I was just about to say,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: I remember when Trump was running for office and I'm
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: working with him, and I'm like, yo, say something, you
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: know because we have our conversations. He's like, he's probably
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: gonna win. I'm like, well, if you know something we
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: don't know, say something, so come on, like we got
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: the power. You are. Ain't no bigger promoter, marketer, branding
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: motherfucker outside of me than you. Like you know what
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, but that but even like you know, like
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: seeing what Jay is doing. You know Jay and one
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: time for Jane the Rock Nation brunch, Like you know,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: seeing the way that this is shaping up to be
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: like the corridor to whatever. Right, And if you're in
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: the music business is necessary. I mean if you're not,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: it's still like watch them, see what they're doing. See
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: the alliances that are being made because you know, two
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: sus point to everybody's point in here, we have our
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: own who doing what to do it though it's the
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: profet died the cheers to Jay at the at the
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: thing like a black man did this. So being in there,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: black man did this brunch for us. Everybody that is
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: in power in the business that we are in is
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: in this room. There's a big sense of endearment to
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: going on in that in that brunch. And they're white
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: people that want us to get they want us to
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: get our due too. I had to brunch, you know,
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: like the weed everything, Rob Weiss, he did Entourage Ballers.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I had to dude, ninety
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: year old white man and who did the screenplay for
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: corn Bread and Earl, Like you know what I'm saying,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Like it was just they want it's some people on
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: the other side that wants us to have it too,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So we like figure out
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: these alliances and get it done. We have like the
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: Trumpet Awards, but it's kind of a lot. Yeahs we
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: have emphasized as a big deal. Yeah, we we have
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: to respect our stuff, like like we respect the Grammys.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: We have to treat it that way. Talk about it
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: dressed like you're going to the grand It's like like promoted,
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: like you do that. What if we did that, it
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: would be so much bigger. I need to Baker performed,
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: she didn't air because she didn't something happened. It's like
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: this the Urban Honors, it's our ship. Cathy used forty
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: years in the business, and then it was people that
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: were supposed to come to didn't come, and that came
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: because they felt pressure that they wouldn't get their records
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: played on radio. When you have motherfucker, well, why why
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: does it have to get to that? They just treat
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: us and it kind of we treat us. We treat
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: each other any in a way, and ultimately it all
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: starts with us. It all. We all have to make
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: a conscious decision to put more effort into minority own things.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: And I think this brunches is a is a great
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: starter because just like Clid Davis is his annual Grammy party,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: I feel like with Jay doing this Rock Nations Lunch,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: that's like an annual because it comes around only for
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: the Grammy. Yeah, and I think that's a great start
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: because not everybody is invited to that and if you come,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: you got it's a prestigious event. You gotta show up
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: and show out. What I like about it too, is um.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: They reported that they had a picture of Nipsey and
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Lauren London from last year's Rock Nation Brunch, and the
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: floral designs were clearly inspired by their outfits. So I
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: love that Ja and and Beyonce always seem to do
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: these subtle things that they show us love. I love
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: It's very thoughtful and you would not know what it
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: was unless someone pointed it out, Like I was like,
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: you know what, There's no way you can tell me
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: that the floral um color and the core was not
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: inspired by nip and Lawrence Southfit last year. And yes, Rory,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: we love jay z is here too, speaking of um, Yeah,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know what in the white faces going on here.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Apparently Kanye West wants Danny Rides to betray him in
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: his biopic, and I thought it was a joke, but
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: clearly this you shocked. I think it was a joke whatsoever.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: I think this is Kanye doing Kanye like. Kanye is
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: trying to prove a point that like, well, you know,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: why can't a white man play playing black man? Like
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: like Kanye, you take it too far, man, that's what
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: that's what You'll take it too far. Like, I get it.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: You want to talk about equality. It's about talent, it's
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: about creative It shouldn't matter about the skin. Man. You're
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: taking it too far exactly, man. That's why the Urban
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: Awards at the Grands right child, child, this is where
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: I think they laugh at us. No, no, they don't
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: know they laugh at Trump when they laugh for us.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: My point is this, though, I do think this is
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: where Kanye takes away from his genius because he's a genius.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: We cannot argue this, but he's a fucking retard at
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: the same time, I can say that word. As My
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: point is, Dan McBride has no black features. He cannot
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: pull off Kanye. He's not black, and you gotta have
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: musical time like Uptown Story, how happens? I would love
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: to see the finished product, but Uptown Andrea rail stories
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: coming out to BT, they're auditioning for people that saying
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: like Mary sing like Joe to see like Heavy d
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: look like Heavy. You can't when it's the best movies
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: to me too, when when the person actually kind of
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: looks like in favors, like like Selena, like Notorious Sea
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: she did it was awesome. But you know what this
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: is Kanye be a Kanye And like I said, this
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: man is standing in his truth. He is telling y'all
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: who he is day in and day out. Who is
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: he saying he is by saying he wants Danny McBride
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: to like give okay, please jump in. Who is he
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: saying he is? I need to know who is he saying?
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: I like the way you were he's saying. He's saying
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: he's saying who he is by saying who he's not?
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: Mm okay with your double entendres, I will say I
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: saw a video circulate about him, and it was very
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: motivating that he said, you know, in the future that
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: he would just one people to recognize him by his
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: first name. You would not have to say you know
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: Kanye West, but by just Kanye, and you do know
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: what Kanye means the only one? I listen, thank all
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: the nations. Did you know that? Because I did not
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: know that. I know him. I know baby, I did
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: not know that, and I know him well, he's expressed
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: to see. Like I said, I was like a Kanye
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: fan key word, but he's and he said in interviews,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: you know what his name meant meant and it meant
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: the only one? All right. Yeah, before we go to
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: a word from my sponsor, I have to say this
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: because I was actually have a conversation from the way
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: in here and my friends were telling me that Nike
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: pulled all of Kobe stuff offline. Kobe right, but Kobe
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: sorry because because resellers people, no, no, no, they well
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: they said there were rumors prior to this note we
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: just got into ball alert. Nike says Kobe Bryant sneakers
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: are all sold out, not pulled from Nike dot com.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Because people were saying on Nike dot com like they
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: took everything down and they were like, na, everything sold out.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Because I was having back and forth with my friend
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: this morning, like yo, like why would they do that?
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: That all that goes to his family, you know what
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. And literally in one day, I thought it
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: was because people were buying in reselling to you know,
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: Nike just announced that the sneakers are all sold out,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: not pulled from Nike dot com whoever. I'm sure the
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: resellers got in on that. They did, because there was
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: a reseller who had a signed Kobe jersey on Amazon
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: for six thousand dollars. Yeah, but keep in mind of
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: stuff like that has already been on sale, his signature
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that. That that's cool, But I feel
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: like of his passing, relax, that's very distasteful. So distasteful.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Humans are so disgusting. Rest in peace, Kobe being briant
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: And now a word from our sponsors. Now's time for
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: ball of male Dear Ball Alert crew. I want my
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: boyfriend back, Dear Ball Alert show. My boyfriend and I
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: stopped talking three months ago because we have a long
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: distance relationship and he didn't like that I have a
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: lot of male friends. He stated that it made him
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: feel uncomfortable that I had all these male friends at
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: work and in my and in my personal life and
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: he's an another state and unable to be there. With
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: me when these male friends are around. His thing is
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: he doesn't trust them. That's right. He thinks that they
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: like me, but I've told him in strictly friendship only.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: We haven't seen eye to eye on it, and we
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: split up three months ago. I don't want to drop
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: my male friends, but I miss my man. What should
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: I do? Please help child? Let that man stay where
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: he at, like you cannot. I've always been a firm
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: believer of not excuse me, you know, canceling friendships with
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: people because someone I'm dating is insecure about it. I
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: will never turn my back on someone who is a true,
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: genuine friend. How many male friends? Of course, I have
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: quite a few male friends, and I'm in a male
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: but also culturally, I think this topic is as it's
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: perfect for me. Actually, go ahead. How many men would
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: you like? If you like you have big brothers. I
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: don't know that you have male friends, Like people you've
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: seen the club aren't your friends. I have some male
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: friends that I actually grew up. I need numbers because
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: you can't just say all the people you know are
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: your friends. But I literally have childhood friends or friends
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: that you know I'm still in connection, like male friends
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: that that okay, cool, Maybe like six or eight that
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: are like your house, be with you, You've got your
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: bondet on around that. You know, no friend to my friends,
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: A solid five of them come to so five five
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: male friends. Yeah, and you're saying that's probably high end
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: for not because you're not. I don't think you're the normal.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: But let me just say outside of the industry though,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: in our culture and habits culture, we don't. We're not
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: like Jen. It's not like that. Like you can have
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: friends of the friend they probably like you. She's in
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: the business, whether male dominated, it does different. But for
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: me it does come from from culture because growing up,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: it wasn't weird for my mom's male friends to come
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: over and have the ceremonial coffee or like that. In
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: my industry also, like you know, I'm coming at it
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: from like both angles. But I think it's healthy to
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: have relationships from people of the opposite sex. But I
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: also understand American culture is a little bit That's what
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: I was. You can't tell me half the people outside
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: in five half or the men outside inside that you'll
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: be around with me trying to fun. You can't say that.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: I can almost guarantee it. Shoot, they don't make me
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: feel like it. So I mean, yeah, there are some
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: people that I'm like, okay, you want to, but most
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: of them I've I've never gotten we got a phone.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: That's what I was trying to say. Like she said,
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: her culture, you know, male flourished friendships are like so normal. Yeah,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: like you said, but in this in America. Okay, what
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: about you? You got you got a lot of male friends.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: I will say, though, but um, I understand too, like
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: a lot of them like me. But I understand what
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: she's saying. That with the girl. If my man is
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: uncomfortable with that, I don't have a problem with Yes, Yes,
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: if you know someone has feelings for you, you know
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: someone likes you, and you're just constantly trying to put
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: them in the friend zone. If you are really dating someone,
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: you can't even have that person in the friend zone
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: them or that there's in that situation that looks like
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: me and Sue was super close. But she probably communicates
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: with my My wife is just as much. We actually
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: have a group chat. Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: I think that's important. Um, with a male friend. So
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: to the topic of this, she's not including her boyfriend,
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: she can't into the male friendship live here. Yeah, but
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: if I have a female that's your partner, my wife
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: is going to be included. Yeah, and you're gonna have
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: each other like my wife and Sue has each other number.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: She feels free that she has to to be comfortable with.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: You can tell me at any time of the day,
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: any time of the night. But what happens if you're
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: dude is the type of dude that's like, I don't
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: want to know what this an't gonna about now. I'm like,
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: because you know, it's a lot of y'all out here
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: to be like, I don't care. That's what hurt. I
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: think she's dealing with distance and not and I agree
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: with you guys. She should try to find a way
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: to include him something the next time he's in town.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: Go out for drinks, go out for topics or something.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: But yeah, and like have him a round your people
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: and don't hand him around nobody you fucked. Yeah, that's disrespectful,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: But like, if there's someone who is really giving him uncomfortable,
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: I want to be with your woman vibes, and he
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: communicates that you too, and you care about your relationship
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: that yeah, you know, is that one thing that's if
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: you have sex with the motherfucker, y'all could be friends.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: And that's a lot of that's not that's a no,
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: y'all know, we will never agree with stuff like this
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: one because I think it just depends on the relationship.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: I think it just depends what you know. Hey, hey man,
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: you said a child with someone and you have that
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: type of relationship, you have to have some type of
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: common But if you do not child, if you just
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: sunk with somebody and your besties and he's coming over
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: to the crib and I'm oh, that ain't that's not
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: part of the game. That's not part of the game.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: It got nothing your best your besties used to smash no, no,
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: no guts, especially if we're doing what we do, because
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: that's the white people's stuff. It's like you you have
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: a group of white friends and they all husband walking
• 37:57

  Speaker 1: this is. I can't remember who it is, but there's
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: a Caucasian female actress who let her ex boyfriend move
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: into the house with her her husband and a new baby.
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: So I'm going to tell you all the craziest scenario.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Come on, and I had a day job. My co
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: workers name is Tom. I'm not gonna say his last
• 38:25

• 39:24
  Speaker 1: that's see, that's a see Will. I don't know if
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: I love that they do that. I think I think
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: it's for the days to see a healthy relationship with
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: with the parents. I think it's a dynamic. I gotta
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: steal yet to unravel your role. Smile dude in the
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: stepdad cool cool, y'all ain't tight nigger, y'all don't hang

• 39:52
  Speaker 1: You want to know, I actually respect him a lot
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: of you respects me a lot. Communicate that came more
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: than man. Uh, you know baby moms, which I think
• 40:02

• 40:06
  Speaker 1: have to share my daughter with him. Absolutely. I respect.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: It was his birthday. I told him happy birthday. You
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. That was cool. Yeah, before the
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: young lady, I think y'all should all get together. If
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: he's not a cool may him feel comfortable at least,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: But if you want you if you want your man back,
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: if you don't want to uh, if you don't want
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: to deal with him and him being you know, slightly jealous,
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: because all friends ain't friends. They could just be trying
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: to slide up, just waiting on the opportunity. I know
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: a lot of men are calculated and they will Wait,
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: have you ever seen a lion stalkers praise? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: you go, you want to make a mad girl? Yea,
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: who's listening. You have to use this in your next
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: relationship as a lesson. If you're not going back and
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: not getting back with him, you have to your next
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: man has to know your male friends, have to know
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: your immediate male friends. That's gonna be in your life,
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: in his life too. I was gonna say, be honest.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: The thing is, people meet people and they introduced like
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: the better version of themselves or you know, the censored
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: version of themselves. I'm very open, Like I tell any
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: man that wants to potentially date me or I'm interested
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: in whatever the case is, Like, hey, twice a day,
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: like this is what I do. Like yeah, Like I
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: get phone calls late at night from guy's you know,
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: who need help or who want tables or want to
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: know what's popping or I run a dope as Sunday
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: brunch event. I am right now, and you know it's
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: just like it is very important. Like you're not going
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: to make me feel awkward about my job. You're not
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: going to make me feel awkward about my career goals
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: and the fact that I have to have relationships with
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: people of the opposite sex. You will never have to
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: be around they want I feel comfortable. Unfortunately, we're in
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: that end of her immediate space. She don't have to
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: have them in her media space. And if it's business,
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: they got to have rules. No, that's cool. They've been
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: calling you for a certain guidelines, so that's don't don't
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: don't be so freezy. This is what this way I
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: have the issue. What are the rules. They don't understand
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: that people gonna call They call you in the middle
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: of night. No, no, Kenny, they are going to call night.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: If this is your big I am going to answer
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: the phone. If it's if it's if it's someone I have,
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: I am going to answer the phone. You need to something,
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: you have to call her. You know what I'm saying.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: But he's saying as him. But that's what she say,
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: that's what she has to tell her due. But what
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: I'm saying to the people that call her that are
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: not her male friends. Yeah, it's different. If somebody was
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: a table at compound on Saturday night and they didn't
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: decide to do it until PM. They're gonna call me.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: I'm going to answer those of my business that I'm
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: talking about, the ones that are your friends that aren't
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: your friends. Yeah, No, that's cool. I I'm only talking
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: about like, because I did date someone who in the
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: beginning told me he was comfortable with my career, he
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: didn't mind what I did, and then all of a
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: sudden he started having problems with do you have to
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: go to work tonight? Can you just say, yeah, I
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: gotta go to work tonight? Like what do you what
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: do you mean? Let me just say this to all
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: the women out there listening. Your man sees things you
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: don't because he's a man, just like y'all. Y'all I agree.
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, see me see the fact that I
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: got this. We're a certain detector though women it's known
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: to man trust us, trust trust the woman you're with, Like,
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: just trust that. We're just giving scenario because this young
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: ladies clearly still in love with her man. More than
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: likely she she is how I used to be, and
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: she wasn't honest about her friendships, Like she wasn't honest
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: about the people in her life. She probably only talked
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: about girlfriends for a while or loosely talked about, you know,
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: her male relationships. And that's why I feel like you
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: have to be upfront and honest because the more information
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: you give somebody, you allow them to make a decision
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: on how they want to be involved and stuff again,
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: and like that that says a lot about the person.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: I just want to know how much does honestly really
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: play a part in day nowadays, because I don't think
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: anyone gets the truth. I think it's so spotty until
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: you know. But then it's like you don't got so
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: many holes and gaps in the truth telling that by
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: the time you get to the serious part there's a
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: whole bunch of ships in the back. That I used
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: to that person being spotty with with what I gave,
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: and I realized that did not benefit me in the
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: long run. So now I don't care I tell you,
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: And if you don't like it, great, like great, because
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: at least we know now, like cool, all right, I
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: wanta we gotta get this. We're giving the phone number again.
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: We gotta get this, you know. Yeah, when they do that,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: I don't have them. We need them to want to
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: have this conversation on the air. You can come to
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: the ball Alert show and you can get down with
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: to get down and we can have some real off
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: thing because I think we give answers, but I think
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: it's some ship we don't be knowing that we could
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: get to the bottom the details. So people in the
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: land to y'all, what's the number, y'all? Three oh five,
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: eight seven six sixty six. That is three oh five
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: eight seven six sixty six thirty one. And now a
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: word from our sponsors, and now it's time for comment. Creeping.
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: Oh my lord, Okay, you guys. So about two weeks ago,
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: former Oklahoma City Thunder teammates Kendrick Perkins and Kevin Durant,
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: we're going back and forth on social media. They were
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: having a public feud, all right. Everybody knew about it,
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: and it was really unfortunate. Um, nobody wanted to see
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: these two former teammates go through this, especially so publicly.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: And if you didn't know, Kevin Durant is actually out
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: right now, isn't he? Is he? Is he not? Is
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: he not? Playing? So still out? So it's you know,
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: he had time, he was sitting there healing, he had
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: time to go back and forth on social media. But
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: shortly after Kobe's death, which I think this is really
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: really important. Um At Kendrick Perkins went on Twitter to say,
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: just wanted to tell you I love you, my brother,
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: and whatever I did to hurt you, I'm sorry, bro,
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: and hope you forgive me. I love you, bro real
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: talk At k D Trey five, I can only imagine
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: his emotions were sky high and he realized whatever it
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: is that we're feuding about is not important. Life is
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: not promised tomorrow, let alone today right now. And I'm
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: glad that he made that apology public because their feud
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: was public. I don't know if Kevin Durant has accepted
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: his apology. I don't know if he has responded, but
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: I will stay on it and hopefully they can make amends.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: I want to see these two black men work it out. Yeah.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: I think time is not guaranteed, and the longer you
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: let it fester in your soul, the longer you will
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: hold onto the bullshit. I think if, like you said,
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: even this last segment, Susan, what you know, I'm gonna
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: tell the truth what it is. If you defends somebody's
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: at least get it up out of your system, get
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: it off your chest. Hey, you guys. If y'all want
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: to call us and share some of your baller mail,
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: or you see a crazy comment creeping situation, feel free
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: to give us a call at three zero five eight
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: seven six six six three one call us. Don't be skirt,
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: and now it's time for balling Nation. We lost a
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: great one. We post these comments on my b Honest
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: Lifestyle page to motivate and inspire, and this one by
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant should be a two you use in your
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: everyday life. Every a negative pressure, challenges is all an
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: opportunity for me to rise. What he's saying is dedicating
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: yourself to something every day, no matter the pressures, no
