This is 46 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: JA Cole's seventh consecutive number one album. One hundred and 47 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: sixty seven thousand came from streaming, with one hundred and 48 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: sixty nine point five owned streams. That doesn't seem right 49 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: to me, but I'm gonna go with it. One hundred 50 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: and thirteen pure of sales with eighty thousand and vinyl, 51 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: which is his biggest vinyl week ever. Yes, the largest 52 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: hip hop opening since playboll CARDI Man, and he had 53 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: the trunk seale tour, selling CDs from the Honda Civic, 54 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: driving a lot of fan engagement. Of course, it's supposed 55 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: to be his final ashes. 56 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 2: So what do you guys think? Man, it's two hundred 57 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 2: and eighty K. 58 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: Is that impressive in twenty twenty six given the market 59 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 1: hip hop market? 60 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think what's even more impressive is that this 61 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 2: is seven number one albums. You know what I'm saying. 62 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 3: I think I think that shows the longevity and I 63 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: think that, you know, I don't want to say that 64 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: J Cole's numbers are boosted because they may have to 65 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 3: earn that, you know what I'm saying? Like he is 66 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 3: J Cole in my opinion, is the epitome of building 67 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 3: your own fan base and then just living off of 68 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: your fan base, right Like, I think he is the 69 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 3: epitome of what the independent rapper wants to be in 70 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 3: twenty twenty six and beyond. You know, obviously he started 71 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 3: off with a deal bot siding the j but at 72 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 3: some point, you know, the man we're independent and started 73 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 3: doing his own thing. So to me, yes, this is 74 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,239 Speaker 3: definitely Ken. This is I don't want to say eye opening, 75 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 3: but I want to say that this is the product 76 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 3: of hard work, right Like, I don't feel that Ja Cole, 77 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 3: for the majority of those number one albums, had quote 78 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 3: unquote a machine behind him. This is just the product 79 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 3: of him building up his fan base and monetizing and 80 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 3: catering to that fan base first and foremost, you know, 81 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 3: with the selling the CDs out of the trunk, the 82 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 3: dollar and the dream towards like all of that. 83 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 2: Type of stuff. 84 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 3: Man, I think j Cole, out of anybody in hip hop, 85 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: I think he is in tune with his fan base 86 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 3: and the numbers are just a byproduct of that. But 87 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 3: it is it is impressive, Ken Like, I Like, let's 88 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: be honest, like, this is impressive these numbers are impressive. 89 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't even know what numbers are impressed these days. 90 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 5: I do remember somebody saying that that was an impressive 91 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 5: number in this day and age. 92 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 6: And and yeah, man. 93 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 4: It's not surprising. It's J Cole at the end of 94 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 4: the day. 95 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 5: Man, he you know, whether whether you want to believe 96 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 5: it or not, to have Vision's history, he was a 97 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 5: big part of the Big Three. 98 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 4: So he's gonna do numbers. 99 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 6: You know. 100 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 5: He has you know, has like part of the underground, 101 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 5: part of the ND mainstream people know J cole name, 102 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 5: so like it's not it's it's it's to be expected 103 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 5: in my opinion. And plus I think the slightly the 104 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 5: little promo he did before you know it, it was 105 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 5: it was effective, and the promo afterwards was effective. When 106 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 5: he did the trunk sales and all of that, like 107 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 5: all of that stuff played in his favor favorite whether 108 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 5: people like the album or not. You know, So he 109 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 5: was going to get the numbers, I think. And I 110 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 5: think even with with Dre right, he's gonna get numbers 111 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 5: if he drops, because people want to know what he's 112 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 5: going to say, what's going to happen. 113 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 2: Now. 114 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 4: The main thing is just like if. 115 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 5: He can keep that momentum, which is what I'm seeing 116 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 5: is starting to be an issue. 117 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 2: Well, hey, you brought up the d worst or you 118 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: gotta go there. I think I think it'll be an 119 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 2: issue for Drake. 120 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 3: I don't think it'll be as big of an issue 121 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 3: for Call now obviously. Like typically numbers, regardless of what 122 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 3: era you're in, they drop off week after week, right 123 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 3: Like some may stay strong, some may not have a 124 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 3: big of a dip, but typically your first week numbers 125 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 3: are gonna be your best week numbers for Drake, I think, 126 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 3: and we've seen it in the past where the numbers 127 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 3: just drastically drop off, And I think that that's my 128 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 3: product of the commercialism and the machine behind Drake. And 129 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 3: I think the situation is that everybody wants to kind 130 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 3: of check out and it. Once they check it out, 131 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 3: if the music isn't up to par, people ain't gonna 132 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 3: tap it no more. But I think it's different with 133 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 3: Cole because people are die hard. And can you know 134 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 3: I was thinking I was thinking today, right, I think 135 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 3: we're living in an era of division. I think when 136 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 3: you look at us socio politically, like his division, when 137 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 3: you look at j Cole's album and where people are 138 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 3: saying bad Bunnies half time performance, like we are a 139 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 3: nation divided now in everything, and I think that that's 140 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 3: the same thing with Cole. I think with Cole, though, 141 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 3: people either love it or hate it, but Cole's fan 142 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 3: base is loyal, and I think that his number is 143 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 3: going to represent that. Is he going to have a 144 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 3: drop off, of course, like any other artist, but I 145 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: think he'll be able to maintain that, you know, the 146 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 3: consistency of people bumping his album, you know, for longer 147 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 3: than most, so you know, again, it goes back to 148 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 3: Cole's building his fan base than just being able to 149 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: be tapped into it. 150 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: It's definitely holding up for a lot of J. Cole fans, 151 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: I think for some of them, and for others it's 152 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: probably going to get better as they have more and 153 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: more time to sit with it. The division thing, You're 154 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: absolutely right in regards to that, because one of the 155 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: things I've been seeing a lot is that people have 156 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: been really just bashing J. Cole and it feels like 157 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: it's the end thing to do now, and you know, 158 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: we don't have time to get into that. I do 159 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: have some thoughts about that. You know now it's fun 160 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: to make J fun of j Cole, like it became 161 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: trending and fun to make fun of Drake. 162 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 2: What fuck it? 163 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: I said, You know, when we were reviewing and making 164 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: the content we were making about these artists, it was 165 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: like we weren't doing it because it was a trend 166 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: or end thing to do. It really was purely honestly 167 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: us and how we felt at the time. And I 168 00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: don't know if people just caught onto that wave and 169 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: decide that, you know, they're just gonna do similar things, 170 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: or if that's just something that took place, you know, 171 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: over time. But it is interesting seeing like a lot 172 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: of the conversation around Cole, it's similar to things that 173 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: have been saying on our program for quite some time now. 174 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: But but I. 175 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: Do think so I think when you when we have 176 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: album sales, and I think with Cold album sales are 177 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: important because of where he stands in hip hop in 178 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: terms of being on the what is present day mainstream, 179 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: and it helps contextual contextualize his popularity among his peers, 180 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: where when you get the independent artists and underground artists, 181 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: it's a little bit different, you know, the measurement measurements 182 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: a little bit different. The KPIs are different when it 183 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: comes to that, but this is the measurement stick we 184 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: have when it comes to guys. You know, that's you 185 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: know in this field. So what I did was so 186 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: I think to Eddy in this climate is pretty good. 187 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,839 Speaker 1: Uh So what I did was I went and got 188 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: J Cole's first week album sales by comparison. So we're 189 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: gonna start with Cole World in twenty eleven, brand new 190 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: artists first week out, I mean brand new artists. Midstaatee 191 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 1: Buzz signed with Jay two hundred and eighteen thousand, Born 192 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: Center two years later in twenty thirteen, two hundred and 193 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: ninety seven thousand, twenty fourteen, three hundred and seventy one thousand, 194 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: two thousand and sixteen four y eys only four hundred 195 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: and ninety two thousand and in twenty eighteen. And I 196 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: think this is when you start to see streaming kind 197 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: of gain traction. 198 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 2: KOD three hundred and ninety seven the off. 199 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: Season, two hundred and eighty two, and of course right 200 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: now there were numbers we have too, eighty So he's interesting. 201 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: He had a good three album run between twenty and 202 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: fourteen twenty eighteen. 203 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 2: But he's right in line with his numbers for. 204 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 5: The most part, which is interesting because I would expected 205 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 5: those earlier numbers to be higher in that age. So 206 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 5: but he's still was kind of new, I guess, and 207 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 5: he hadn't caught that that J Cole buzz quite. 208 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, So yeah, that's interesting that that those numbers line 209 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 4: up that way. 210 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 2: What did you gotta think, bro, Like he was still 211 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 2: in the process of building. 212 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 3: That's you know, like KOD really got a big NBA push, 213 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 3: which is why why it was like half a million 214 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 3: like that that album was flashed all over the NBA playoffs, 215 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. And then the one before that, 216 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 3: you said, for Your Eyes Only was like for for 217 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 3: something three something. 218 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, four your Eys Only was four hundred and ninety two. Yeah. 219 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 3: I think that's the height of J cole, like like 220 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 3: he had all of the backing of the mixtape days, 221 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 3: the cod signed by Jay like everything, Like I think 222 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 3: that was like the. 223 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: Prime of where J Cole was. 224 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: And they said that just real quick, the his peak 225 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: four Your eys Only in KOD were inflated by streaming units. 226 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: So I don't know how they were doing the calculations then, 227 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: because they've been there have been some adjustments since that time, 228 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 1: so that's probably why the numbers came down. 229 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 2: But so that's why you probably have such huge spike. 230 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, I'm like you guys, I think 231 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: this was interesting looking at the numbers for him historically. 232 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, so the streaming numbers, right, So I don't know 233 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 3: how the licensing works in terms of streaming and boosting. 234 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 3: But kod was dropped on April twenty, twenty eighteen, and 235 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,599 Speaker 3: we know that that's kind of sort of when the 236 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 3: playoffs start, right, like it is late April going into May, 237 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 3: and then you know the finals are early June.

We're 356 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: not talking about her. However, Too Short, though, jumped out there. 357 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 2: And he has some things to say because you got 358 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 2: Nicki and Nellie. 359 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: Doing their whole maga thing, and he jumped out and 360 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: said that hip hop should limit politics to the ballot box, 361 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: keep your political views to yourself. He clarified later that 362 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: no America should stay out of politics, especially in twenty 363 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,719 Speaker 1: twenty six. And of course we had Ludicris backing out 364 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: of the Rock the Country festival. We kind of we 365 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 1: talked about that a little bit on is the micetal 366 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 1: one about a week or so ago with Mike and 367 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: Spike if you guys want to hear a little bit 368 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: of that conversation after that whole thing that went down. 369 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 1: So it seems like Too Short did walk it back, 370 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: but but there was somebody else that had. I mean, 371 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 1: we have the old of Russell conversation going on anyway, 372 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: So there's a whole conversation about artists not saying anything 373 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: with their music and Too Shore, who's not a political 374 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 1: rapper himself making this statement, So any thoughts on you 375 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,680 Speaker 1: know what he said here, including and walking it back. 376 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 2: Are we at a point where, like when we grew up. 377 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: The politics and things that were going on were really intense, 378 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: and rappers really used the moment to speak on certain things, 379 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: you know, with Chuck E and Ice Cube, et cetera, 380 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: et cetera. 381 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 5: That's what I was gonna say. You got rappers like 382 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 5: Chuck d Ice Cube that I feel like, I mean, 383 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 5: even killing Mike right, that are they They are tapped 384 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 5: into the political space. So I'm glad he kind of 385 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 5: somewhat walked that back a little bit, because you know, 386 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 5: you do. 387 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 4: Have some people that. 388 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 5: Their legs are powered by that political things and things 389 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 5: that's happening in the world. So you can't you can't. 390 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 5: You can't apply that to every rapper, you know what 391 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 5: I'm saying. Some rappers are absolutely about that smoke, like 392 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 5: Chuck me being one of the earlier examples that I've 393 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 5: ever had that was about that smoke, like like talking 394 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 5: about Reagan. 395 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 4: Oh, I mean everybody, you know what I'm saying, Like, like, 396 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 4: I think you need I think. 397 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 5: It's important for the culture to tap into those spaces. 398 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 4: Of politics with their music. 399 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 5: I mean we've even told you know, rappers like, yeah, man, 400 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 5: you know when we were talking to Cliffs Off Forces 401 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 5: that I remember telling them like, man, y'all, should you know, 402 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,679 Speaker 5: especially as younger cats kind of you know, touch on 403 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 5: different things that's happening, like the killings and things like that. 404 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 4: It's cool what y'all do. 405 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 5: But you know, y'all, I feel what you feel, like 406 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 5: y'all go a little deeper with you know what I'm saying. 407 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 4: Is it mandatory? No, of course not. You know what 408 00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 4: I'm saying. 409 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 5: Even myself, I don't like always talking about politics, but 410 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 5: it comes a point in time where okay, maybe I 411 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 5: should say something and then you just never know who. 412 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 4: That may influence and who that might touch, you know 413 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 4: what I'm saying. 414 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 5: So, you know, especially being such, you know, people admire 415 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 5: you and stuff that you can have some major impact 416 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 5: in certain situations. 417 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: So so yeah, I don't know. I don't know if 418 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 4: I fully agree. 419 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 5: With him just saying rapper touch on politics in music 420 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 5: or just in general. 421 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 3: Like I don't think that applies to everybody. Yeah, that 422 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 3: that's such a blanket statement, you know what I'm saying 423 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 3: like hip hop is multi faceted, and we got ship 424 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 3: that is just for the club, just for the whip. 425 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 3: You know, we got stuff that's just like you know, 426 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 3: couples based, you know, like like you know, like we 427 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 3: got we got lovey dovey like like there there's gangster ship, 428 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 3: there's grimy shit, there's political joints. So to me to 429 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 3: say that should not I think that. I think I 430 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 3: think that's that's that's a bad taking. I think he 431 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,199 Speaker 3: was right for walking it back a little bit, but 432 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 3: I also think. 433 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 2: That it's wrong to. 434 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,479 Speaker 3: Be on the opposite side of that and be like 435 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 3: all rappers should say something, you know what I'm saying, 436 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 3: I rapper should say something, but I do. This is 437 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 3: this is where it's a slippery slope, right because bringing 438 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 3: up the D word again, Drake, I feel like, you know, 439 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 3: he's been people have said things about him not saying 440 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 3: anything right and him being part of the culture. I 441 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 3: think it's people's own personal prerogatives, especially if it's not 442 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 3: directed to them, right, Like Lil Wayne is somebody that 443 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 3: hasn't really spoken a lot UH politically, but he got 444 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 3: the uh off of that. Georgia Georgia Bush he got 445 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 3: that like one other song out of his entire catalog. 446 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,239 Speaker 3: He may got thousands of songs, but I think that 447 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 3: at that moment it was appropriate for him. Obviously that's 448 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 3: what he felt on his heart. So I feel like this, 449 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 3: I feel like we can't box creatives in if that's 450 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 3: how they feel, that's how they feel, they don't feel 451 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 3: like that, Like like we can't put the pressure on 452 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 3: them to do and say. You know, like if somebody 453 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 3: wants to step into that arena and be the leader 454 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 3: of that by all means, but that's not everybody's prerogative 455 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 3: to to to to spearhead that, you know what I'm saying, 456 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 3: Like because with that, you know, we were talking last 457 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 3: night out that in sports about being like the face 458 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 3: of the NBA. 459 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 2: Who wants to be the face of that right now? 460 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Especially. 461 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: In this climate with social media where everybody has something 462 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 3: to say, Like you could be in your mind doing 463 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 3: the best thing for your culture, for your community by 464 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 3: speaking out and doing things, and then all of a 465 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 3: sudden you got this other faction that just bringing you 466 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,959 Speaker 3: down and basically just gonna tell you to shut up 467 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 3: and wrap you know what, I'm saying, so everybody don't 468 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 3: want to deal with that man, Like, so I don't 469 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 3: put that on this on anybody. 470 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 1: I don't know why Too Short felt the need to 471 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: even say that. It was so weird of a statement. 472 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: So you know, man, trust me, it's too Short as 473 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: the last person we want to hear politics from. But 474 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 1: he may have something interesting to say, but nobody's gonna 475 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: say he was serious. 476 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 2: So anyway, Uh, yeah. 477 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 5: I was gonna say real quick, I think I think 478 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 5: he had decent intention. Like, I guess he was just saying, like, 479 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 5: to protect yourself as an artist, maybe not get into politics, 480 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 5: because you see the stuff that's happening with Nicki Minaj, 481 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 5: you see the stuff that's happening with different people. So 482 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 5: I think he was just talking from solely from the 483 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 5: perspective of, like, yo, if you want to keep your 484 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 5: name out of stuff and you want to stay out 485 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 5: of trouble, you probably shouldn't talk about politics. Which he's 486 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 5: not wrong to a cent because everybody's not going to 487 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 5: agree with your political views. 488 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,120 Speaker 6: I mean we know that. 489 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 5: Just you're not even supposed to bring up thing in 490 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 5: the workplace because of that, right, it's a touchy subject. 491 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 5: In different areas of work, you know what I'm saying. 492 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 5: So I think with him, he's looking at it in 493 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 5: the sense of like how people say don't bring up 494 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 5: politics in the workspace, So he's probably saying, don't bring 495 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 5: up politics in the wrap space or whatever. So I 496 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 5: get what he's saying to a certain extent about you know, 497 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 5: if you don't want to like possibly ruin your career 498 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 5: or be under under attack, you probably should not talk 499 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 5: about politics. So I get it from that standpoint. But again, 500 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 5: I think some people are fully ready for that type 501 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 5: of smoke. 502 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, some people are.
