Speaker 2: and then t J Max. Costco was like a good day,
Speaker 2: you know, because we were in Atlanta prior to then,
Speaker 2: and then the whole week just was my whole week
Speaker 2: in between, it's just cram with a bunch of other
Speaker 2: shit and I really didn't have time.
Speaker 1: I need a favor what Costco? Y'all Costco got this
Speaker 1: big candle?

Speaker 1: You get that? Can you go get me more.

Speaker 2: and return the me'll, yeah, it's gonna melt in the car.
Speaker 2: So like I got it. I didn't buy one because
Speaker 2: I didn't feel like bring it upstairs. And also I
Speaker 2: didn't wanting to make my own candles because all of
Speaker 2: these candles are toxic. So imagine if you got that
Speaker 2: big stupid ass canon in your house and it's toxic.
Speaker 1: You gotta be careful with making your own candles. Because
Speaker 1: why I st my shop on fire with a homemade
Speaker 1: candle one of my clients.
Speaker 2: What was it made of? Was it soy?
Speaker 1: I don't know, bitch, but I know the walk like
Speaker 1: it was. It was a nice candle. It smell good.
Speaker 1: Once to start getting close to the bottle, it enerupted
Speaker 1: in fire and shot up the wall in my salon
Speaker 1: and what yeah, like for real.
Speaker 2: Kill everybody in there. Maybe she had like all the
Speaker 2: I don't know, the the oil stuff, and I don't
Speaker 2: know why. Why would that happen? Girl? Is that really
Speaker 2: your friend?
Speaker 1: She's so sweet?
Speaker 2: Okay, she buy me gifts for every holiday.
Speaker 1: She would never I don't think she'd ever try to
Speaker 1: harm me.
Speaker 2: That's weird.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but be careful with making your own candles.
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess you could, Like I guess, I
Speaker 2: feel like that could happen with people have burned their
Speaker 2: houses now with candles, leaving them lit somewhere. So it's
Speaker 2: probably not about making your own candle, right, you know.
Speaker 2: It's the ingredients. Yeah, yeah, something was super inflammable. So
Speaker 2: I did costco.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna get that for me.
Speaker 2: I see how you did that? Listen, I will get
Speaker 2: the candle for you. But it's I mean, do you
Speaker 2: really want that thing? It's enormous, Yes, I want it.
Speaker 2: It's like a trash can size.
Speaker 1: Yes, I like it.
Speaker 2: Okay, And they really smell really good too.
Speaker 1: If they have anyone that has vanilla in it, that's
Speaker 1: the one I want.
Speaker 2: They did have a vanilla I'll see if they're still
Speaker 2: in there, and they definitely was in there this weekend
Speaker 2: because I did pick that big ship up. It I
Speaker 2: definitely saw it. So costco all that stuff. And then
Speaker 2: Sunday I saw the baby. I packed the bag Saturday morning,
Speaker 2: I mean Sunday morning because another friend her little daughter
Speaker 2: had like a dance recital. So I packed the bag
Speaker 2: and went and spent the morning with the baby, and
Speaker 2: then I went to the dancer sital and then I
Speaker 2: came home. Yeah, I know, right, might as well. What
Speaker 2: did all the keep kids?
Speaker 1: I didn't do nothing, but listen, you gotta be careful
Speaker 1: what you pray for, because I was like, God, I
Speaker 1: need a financial blessing money lord. And when I tell you,
Speaker 1: my books was booked and busy, like from top to bottom,
Speaker 1: like day after day. I was working like thirteen fourteen
Speaker 1: hour Thursday, Friday, Saturday. I was so busy. But I
Speaker 1: needed that money. I needed the money. It's like, what
Speaker 1: is it?
Speaker 2: What was her name?
Speaker 1: Stony?
Speaker 2: Yeah, So that's what I did.
Speaker 1: I worked all weekend and I was ugly. Remember I
Speaker 1: had that lace, y'all. When I tell you, my lace
Speaker 1: was sitting back to the middle of.
Speaker 2: My head it's so bad. You got their hairstyff from
Speaker 2: one David. Like one week it was it was over.
Speaker 1: I went to like, I went to Chick fil A
Speaker 1: to give me a salad on my lunch, and I
Speaker 1: had took my hat off because it was so hot,
Speaker 1: and I took it off and I went through the
Speaker 1: drive through, and I forgot that I did not put
Speaker 1: my hat back on for the draft. The girl at
Speaker 1: the drive through and she was taking my orders and
Speaker 1: he was hearing at my lefe.
Speaker 2: Like, bit, chy'all, don't get my sandwich.
Speaker 1: Let's get this sand.
Speaker 2: We got going on chav with the crazy foods in
Speaker 2: the world today. So I saw a Florida man arrested
Speaker 2: for having three wives in three different counties. Did y'all
Speaker 2: see that headline?
Speaker 1: Florida is an interesting place, man, Yes, it's less people.
Speaker 1: The most interesting people come out of Florida. Swear this man.
Speaker 1: Did you see him?
Speaker 2: He had the eyes and chocolate skin, Yes he was.
Speaker 2: He was a nice looking man and he was finn
Speaker 2: and white women. So it's okay. So I'm just playing, y'all,
Speaker 2: just play. I'll just playing. So, so he's facing charges
Speaker 2: for marrying three Florida women in three different counties at
Speaker 2: the same time. He met these women like on dating
Speaker 2: websites and basically married one like he was marrying them
Speaker 2: or they were accepting his hand in marriage within a
Speaker 2: couple of weeks. So, I mean they kind of foolish themselves.
Speaker 1: He was digging them down and staring in today.
Speaker 2: Yes, and you know, obviously it was more of a
Speaker 2: financial gain for him, you know, than for them.
Speaker 1: But how how is the government gonna say what if
Speaker 1: he says, this is my religion.
Speaker 2: I think he has. I don't know. I don't know
Speaker 2: how that works for real.
Speaker 1: Because whether they say what were religion in my own
Speaker 1: Muslim Muslim had multiple people say can't you create who
Speaker 1: decides what? Yeah, religion is my own religion that I started.
Speaker 2: Right, And so the women are mad because they're saying,
Speaker 2: like it's not really enough safeguards to prevent shit like this,
Speaker 2: because somebody can get married in another country. I mean,
Speaker 2: exees me, another state, another city. Bitch, Get on, you.
Speaker 1: Don't even know that, nigga.
Speaker 2: You know here for a couple of weeks. Yes, it's
Speaker 2: Google not a part of dating, Like Google is definitely
Speaker 2: a part of dating when you meet a nigga like
Speaker 2: I might not never tell you at on Google your ass,
Speaker 2: but please believe I know you. I know your mama,
Speaker 2: I know your siblings something. I know your address.
Speaker 1: And my sister paid, well, my older sister be paying
Speaker 1: for some type of little thing where you can find
Speaker 1: out like like some everybody like real shit.
Speaker 2: I keep a subscription. I'll cancel the trial, but I
Speaker 2: definitely be signing up for like people find her dot
Speaker 2: Com and shit like that.
Speaker 1: Yes, I will you know where your mama lived at
Speaker 1: in two seconds.
Speaker 2: And I'm kind of known for that, Like if people
Speaker 2: want to find somebody, they'd be like, actually, I'm definitely
Speaker 2: a pet detective. I'm gonna find your ass. So, so
Speaker 2: it says a man is facing charges for marrying three
Speaker 2: three Florida women in three different countries, cause why keep
Speaker 2: seeing countries in three different counties at the same time.
Speaker 2: Now these women are speaking out saying the system that
Speaker 2: handles marriage licensing licenses kept them in the dark. There
Speaker 2: are no safeguards, and I feel like that's part of
Speaker 2: where the system failed. Michelle Betsy said he took each
Speaker 2: one of us to a county over to get married.
Speaker 2: Oh so they actually probably live in the same area.
Speaker 1: They went to high school together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then basically they're saying like, if
Speaker 2: the county is actually talked, right, if the systems talked,
Speaker 2: he wouldn't have been able to do this because it's
Speaker 2: not like he was getting married to them under different names. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's not like he was getting married to them and
Speaker 2: the aliases or anything like. He was himself marrying marrying
Speaker 2: these women.
Speaker 1: So he's apparently all of a sudden starting marrying a
Speaker 1: bunch of bitches.
Speaker 2: He probably been doing that. The nigga probably married in
Speaker 2: other states. He probably been doing that.
Speaker 1: That's crazy, all right, So a scavenger hurt termed man
Speaker 1: hunt please say a man hit easter eggs with we
Speaker 1: in city parks. I actually thought I was impressed with
Speaker 1: his marketing strategy, honestly, So.
Speaker 2: What marketing strategy like? He just put online like drugs
Speaker 2: sell itself first of all, so you're not a real hustler.
Speaker 2: You're selling drugs if it don't translate into like something
Speaker 2: like official like.
Speaker 1: Lead everybody got drugs? How do you set your drugs
Speaker 1: apart from everybody else's?
Speaker 2: You make them free and you hide them in parks
Speaker 2: that's not marketing.
Speaker 1: He posted like, while we all over the city, if
Speaker 1: you find an egg, Like I thought that was creative.
Speaker 2: At first I was.
Speaker 1: I thought he did like an Easter egg hunt at
Speaker 1: his home for his like homeboys and friends and family.
Speaker 1: I've seen that where people have like an Easter party
Speaker 1: and they'll have an Easter egg hunt and the Easter
Speaker 1: eggs that have like shop bottles and condoms and stuff
Speaker 1: like that in it. In my twenties, we did that
Speaker 1: when I was living in England. But so I thought
Speaker 1: this was that, And I was like, what's the big
Speaker 1: deal is that his home is with his friends who snitched,
Speaker 1: But this dickon was leaving it around the city for
Speaker 1: people to find out. Somebody baby can find it. That's
Speaker 1: where he messed up. You can't be in.
Speaker 2: Somebody's daughter found one and they turned it into the police,
Speaker 2: they said.
Speaker 1: Police said the eggs were hitting on Easter Sunday in
Speaker 1: three public parks, in a motel. The man alleged allegedly
Speaker 1: behind it is now wanted.
Speaker 2: Stupid.
Speaker 1: Yeah that wasn't smart.
Speaker 2: That was not as smart, But I appreciate the sentiment.
Speaker 2: I would do it though, I mean I definitely would
Speaker 2: have partaken in the easter egg hunt for the weed. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, you like those people who like hide money
Speaker 2: around the city. I guess that's what he was doing.
Speaker 1: This guy knew he did like a shoe drive and
Speaker 1: he hates sneakers around the city in different places for
Speaker 1: like nice dope.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. So who the fuck is the bish gossip?
Speaker 2: I never even heard of this blog, but uh, there's
Speaker 2: an article out there. It says fifty one percent of
Speaker 2: women ages eighteen to forty are single, researchers saying this
Speaker 2: is due to the rise in income education for women,
Speaker 2: the single woman no longer having a negative stigma in
Speaker 2: society and marriage being more important to men. Y'all remember
Speaker 2: when niggas are saying like they don't benefit from marriage.
Speaker 2: We've been debunked that, right. So it says the record
Speaker 2: a record of fifty one percent of US women a
Speaker 2: just eighteen to forty we're single in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 2: That's after COVID, up from forty two percent in two thousand,
Speaker 2: according to census data by the Aspen Economic Strategy Group.
Speaker 2: That's in part due to the closing gender gap and
Speaker 2: opportunity and earnings, as well as decline and stigma associated
Speaker 2: with women being single. Marriage rates for both men and
Speaker 2: women are in decline, so it says today women are
Speaker 2: less likely than men to say marriage is important to
Speaker 2: their life goals and happiness. More women than men attribute
Speaker 2: being single to struggling to find partners who meet their standards,
Speaker 2: a fact that experts say may be exacerbated by the
Speaker 2: perceived limitless of dating apps. I agree with that, especially Instagram.
Speaker 2: It's like a hoedex, you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 2: men and women could just get a new nigga every day,
Speaker 2: get a new girl every day, and it says meanwhile
Speaker 2: gen z, women are leading cultural shifts like the boy
Speaker 2: sober trend, focusing more on self Oh boy sober, Okay,
Speaker 2: focusing more on self growth and friendships. They're less likely
Speaker 2: to date a young age. Excuse me, They're less likely
Speaker 2: to date at a young age, and they're having less sex.
Speaker 2: Though these trends have given rise to new concerns about
Speaker 2: loneliness among young people. These young girls is lit now
Speaker 2: a couple of them still getting pregnant.
Speaker 1: I'm still getting pregnant, but they're not like when we were.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just feel like and it does come with
Speaker 2: you know, being okay with being by yourself, because it's
Speaker 2: not a bad thing. You gotta know yourself before you
Speaker 2: invite anybody else into your space. So I definitely applaud
Speaker 2: that shit. But younger women and you know, because maybe, uh,
Speaker 2: we just thought it was so important at that age,
Speaker 2: Like I gotta guess, I gotta have somebody. I gotta
Speaker 2: do this, like because you.
Speaker 1: Talk to Mary and you just think about from the beginning,
Speaker 1: we're read these fairy tales in these books about our
Speaker 1: night and shining the armor coming to save us from
Speaker 1: some dragon.
Speaker 2: Mm hm. The fuck You're gonna do a class action
Speaker 2: lawsuit against Disney because they really fucked us up.
Speaker 1: And then motherfucker the books with.
Speaker 2: The gold buy Yeah, coming for y'all. Brother, Man, I
Speaker 2: still love Cinderella movies. Man. The play this weekend, the
Speaker 2: dance recital was like a hip hop Cinderella mm hmm yeah.
Speaker 2: And they had like Bobby Brown was the Prince. They
Speaker 2: were saying Whitney Euston's songs. It was nice, but yeah,
Speaker 2: like I don't know, man, I do encourage younger women
Speaker 2: to spend more time with themselves, understand themselves and what
Speaker 2: they what they like, you know what I'm saying, and
Speaker 2: also become the partner you want. You gotta also be
Speaker 2: that person that you want, yes, so that when it
Speaker 2: comes along, you recognize it.
Speaker 1: You know what. I would like to see a world
Speaker 1: where the black family exists again in a full dynamic,
Speaker 1: but maybe not the way it was back in the
Speaker 1: day where women was getting beat and left in the
Speaker 1: house with kids. You know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think that's everybody experience, but it definitely
Speaker 2: is a lot of older women experiences, which is why
Speaker 2: they then taught the daughters be able to take care
Speaker 2: of yourself so you don't have to deal with this
Speaker 2: type of behavior.
Speaker 1: Right because they you know, people like big Mama stayed.
Speaker 1: Big Mama had to stay and she hated it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she didn't want to stay and she cheated.
Speaker 2: Let's be very fucking clear.
Speaker 1: And what are your cousins? What are your uncles? Is
Speaker 1: light skinning and the rest of them dark.
Speaker 2: But your granddad's dark as hair. Somebody else raised that baby.
Speaker 1: So what are we do? We have another sing?
Speaker 2: Oh we didn't talk about the met gala though.
Speaker 1: All right, yeah, let's talk about the met gala. I listen,
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie. I wanted to kick Andre three
Speaker 1: thousand right in the piano.
Speaker 2: Why had that piano on his bag? What's the famous
Speaker 2: piano player? Because that's what what Basically he was paying
Speaker 2: homage to, like somebody from the dandyism time, because that
Speaker 2: was a theme of the of the mech gala this
Speaker 2: year and douse, you know they raised more money. This
Speaker 2: is they raised more money this year than any year.
Speaker 2: And that's because a lot of black people bought involved.
Speaker 2: You see how we.
Speaker 1: Sorry, where does the money go? Because they raised thirty
Speaker 1: one million? The most is charity different charities.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm pretty sure they got a list of
Speaker 2: charities because the Metcalla is supposedly like a nonprofit five
Speaker 2: one three.
Speaker 1: I thought it goes to maintaining the museum.
Speaker 2: That's it. Thirty one thirty one million dollars. Nah, bro
Speaker 2: probably go to sex traffick. But in the next episode,
Speaker 2: because that whole shit is a fucking ritual to me, y'all,
Speaker 2: I'd be trying to stay human with the ship, but
Speaker 2: I'd be watching these things and like this is the
Speaker 2: fucking minstrel. Uh uh minstrel.
Speaker 1: I didn't tell y'all this, I know we were talking
Speaker 1: about the mc gala. But I gotta tell y'all about
Speaker 1: my flight. Did I tell you about my flight? M hm,
Speaker 1: So my flight into New York, y'all. It was five
Speaker 1: in the morning. It was so foggy. Why the polo
Speaker 1: couldn't land the plane y'all. When I tell you, I
Speaker 1: was so scared. Like we went down and you know
Speaker 1: how you gotta go by the Hudson River. He couldn't see,
Speaker 1: so we was like right above the water and then
Speaker 1: he shot back up in the air. I'm talking about
Speaker 1: real fast. We did that shit four times before we
Speaker 1: touched the ground. Bitch. When I tell you, my ass
Speaker 1: cheeks was sore from squeezing so tight.
Speaker 2: Scared final destination, bitch.
Speaker 1: Never been so scared on the flight in my life.
Speaker 1: And he was. He was coming on in the mind.
Speaker 1: He was like, I can't see. The visibility is just
Speaker 1: too low. I can't see, you know, So I'm gonna
Speaker 1: try to come in from a different angle and see
Speaker 1: if we can get some visibility. Did that ship four times?
Speaker 1: It felt like I was going through the fog that movie,
Speaker 1: the fog, Like I came into a different dimension. There's
Speaker 1: a ball head man sitting next to me. When we
Speaker 1: touched down, I grabbed that motherfucker by the head and
Speaker 1: was like, I swear I did. All right, I'm sorry
Speaker 1: I had to tell y'all that, But okay, Mett Gala,
Speaker 1: who is your favorite dress?
Speaker 2: I did, like, Uh, what's the name? Louis Vutan low outfit?
Speaker 2: Who do I like that? Look? What's the girl who
Speaker 2: had the hot pink on Adre Day? I liked her look.
Speaker 2: It was a couple of the looks I liked.
Speaker 1: It was off his rug all the way.
Speaker 2: Come, I like that too, I like I like Whoopi
Speaker 2: Goldberg look. Also like the dress slash and who was
Speaker 2: the guy with the all white.
Speaker 1: Like Tianna Taylor was giving parents of the pirates of
Speaker 1: the Caribbeus.
Speaker 2: All the times in one you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: She had like the Prince low, the hats, the chase,
Speaker 2: the yes.
Speaker 1: So.
Speaker 2: Dandyism, okay, so. Dandyism is a style or manner characterized
Speaker 2: by excessive attention to dress grooming and refined manners, often
Speaker 2: associated with a man who was considered a dandy. Right. So,
Speaker 2: this term came up during the time where black people
Speaker 2: were definitely being oppressed, right and they basically used dress
Speaker 2: and style as a form of revolt. Yeah, essentially, I
Speaker 2: think about it like, Hi, I said, I'm gonna start
Speaker 2: wearing gloves again. Y'all see my picture. I was looking
Speaker 2: very dandy, Okay, I really like when a nigga see
Speaker 2: you dressed like that, like with a skirt, passion knees,
Speaker 2: with some gloves on, like a little head piece like
Speaker 2: they automatically know they gotta pay bills. It's big draws
Speaker 2: under this dress. Okay, it's a girdle under this dress.
Speaker 2: It's some shit under this dress. Like you can't come
Speaker 2: over here half stepping. And to me, that's what that
Speaker 2: look looks like. It looks expensive, right, But we now
Speaker 2: were butt naked and you want somebody to take you serious?
Speaker 2: Why they don't have to? They see all the things?
Speaker 2: Who is we imagine if a nigga gotta take these
Speaker 2: layers off girl before they get to memm Like, that's
Speaker 2: what it's about. I'm about to start wearing gloves again.
Speaker 2: I'm about to set the stand have on gloves, wings
Speaker 2: and my fucking wands. My look, oh, speaking of ones,

Speaker 2: DVDs still exist? I do have a DVD player.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's coming on.
Speaker 2: I need it to be all. I want a hard

Speaker 2: did that. Though. As I'm sitting there, I'm like, I
Speaker 2: don't got no weapons on me, because y'all know the
Speaker 2: movie is about vampires. So I'm sitting there like, I
Speaker 2: don't got no fucking weapon on me. The whole theater
Speaker 2: is empty, right except on my row. It's maybe about
Speaker 2: eight people and one white lady. Not to say that
Speaker 2: the white lady isn't a people but a person, but
Speaker 2: it was like it was like eight people, including a
Speaker 2: white lady. And it's like they were staying because I
Speaker 2: was because I'm at the end of the row. It's
Speaker 2: like the whole theater is gone and it's just these
Speaker 2: people on my road and one white lady.
Speaker 1: Well maybe they thought to stay.
Speaker 2: Tuned, That's what I'm saying. But why y'all following me.
Speaker 1: My ro.
Speaker 2: That don't make sense to me. The whole theater's blink.
Speaker 2: So now BJ had already left out the theater. So
Speaker 2: now I'm sitting there and I'm like, I don't have
Speaker 2: no fucking weapon, Like, don't wait for this movie to
Speaker 2: be over. But I'm just in here now by myself,
Speaker 2: and usually I have a weapon, y'all. I do live
Speaker 2: my life like a scary movie. So as soon as
Speaker 2: the screen went complete black and lights completely on, the
Speaker 2: first person to speak is this white lady, and she says,
Speaker 2: what did the vampires represent? I said, energy harvesting while
Speaker 2: I'm walking off. She was like what I said, energy
Speaker 2: harvesting As I'm walking off, and it was another couple
Speaker 2: like right behind me. I said, girl, let's get the
Speaker 2: fuck up out of here for this bitch turn.
Speaker 1: She was a vampire.
Speaker 2: She was, man. I believe actual vampires exist, and I
Speaker 2: also believe like the metaphoric, like you know, you know
Speaker 2: of it. Yeah, just energy harvesting, taking someone's essence and
Speaker 2: life force. Yeah, those people exist in real life and
Speaker 2: they're not just white.
Speaker 1: No, Okay, I really be feeling like people be using
Speaker 1: me for my energy sometimes, I really be feeling like
Speaker 1: people like try to suck at my energy, like seriously.
Speaker 2: For a long time I felt like that. But I
Speaker 2: have such a block up. Now I have such I
Speaker 2: am more selfish now, I'm gonna fuck. I have such
Speaker 2: a block up because you definitely gotta protect your energy
Speaker 2: because I don't even think some people are even consciously
Speaker 2: aware that that's how they're moving. I really don't think
Speaker 2: they they realize it. It's just who they are, right,
Speaker 2: So they go around just feeding, literally feeding on other
Speaker 2: people's energy. Even somebody who likes to argue for some
Speaker 2: I can argue. I don't like arguing because I feel
Speaker 2: depleted after arguing going back and forth with somebody. But
Speaker 2: there are some people that that should charge charge them
Speaker 2: up so they know exactly where to come to get
Speaker 2: shits popping.
Speaker 1: Okay, I know all of a sudden, too much would
Speaker 1: have bitch you that will like reciprocate the energy. So
Speaker 1: I've had people like really come to me to like
Speaker 1: h poke it out of me, mm hmm and like
Speaker 1: and I'll give it back to him. And then after
Speaker 1: I do, I'm like, damn, like.
Speaker 2: I let them get me. Yeah, I let that person
Speaker 2: then controls you. They're your sire at that point, you know,
Speaker 2: like the vampire or the main vampire is like the
Speaker 2: sire m m to everybody else. So if somebody can
Speaker 2: get you out your element, like they have a certain
Speaker 2: level of control over you.
Speaker 1: Right, And that's why I eliminate those people from my life, like.
Speaker 2: They can stay nowadays. Bitch did when I tell you,
Speaker 2: I'm shut, you can't have it. I know how great
Speaker 2: I am, I know how amazing I am. And I'm
Speaker 2: not letting anybody like take that shit from me anymore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is what it.
Speaker 2: Go go get your source feed someplace else, because sh
Speaker 2: it is is closed over here.
Speaker 1: I ain't that growl because I'd be like, bitch, what.
Speaker 2: Like, hold on because I got time today now on
Speaker 2: the Instagram post and some shit like that. On a Friday,
Speaker 2: I might got time to cut your ass out. I
Speaker 2: might got time to cut you out. But I mean,
Speaker 2: like in real life, having exchange actual energy with people,
Speaker 2: I can't do it. It's not I can't do it
Speaker 2: like it that makes sense to me anymore. But anyway,
Speaker 2: back to Sinners. Okay, y'all, this is the box office hit.
Speaker 2: Ryan Coogler's budget for Sinners was ninety million dollars initially,
Speaker 2: right Nigga managed some issues and basically had to put
Speaker 2: up ten million dollars of his own money to complete
Speaker 2: the film. But the film made two hundred and thirty
Speaker 2: seven million dollars worldwide. That's just from first one.
Speaker 1: Why is grossing global horror film?
Speaker 2: Mm hm. So the man is out here doing his
Speaker 2: big one, and then he has like some type of
Speaker 2: like the deal he has with Warner Brothers. So it
Speaker 2: says he's secured a share of the film's gross revenue
Speaker 2: before studio profits along with creative control and future ownership
Speaker 2: rights after twenty five years of the film. Yeah, so
Speaker 2: these terms reflect a significant shift towards greater creativity and
Speaker 2: financial autonomy for filmmakers. This is where I'm trying to be.
Speaker 2: That's why I want to be able to create with
Speaker 2: other people money and like, yeah, y'all get y'all, O'll share.
Speaker 2: But I want my family to be able to eat
Speaker 2: off that shit forever too.
Speaker 1: But why do a film take one hundred million dollars
Speaker 1: to make?
Speaker 2: That is insane? Do you see the credits at the end.
Speaker 2: All those people have to get paid. Yeah, you got
Speaker 2: hair department, costume, set design, transportation. I mean everybody has
Speaker 2: to get.
Speaker 1: Paid one hundred million dollars.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's a.
Speaker 1: Lot to create a film. I'm gonna make all a
Speaker 1: good movie right now for about to be.
Speaker 2: We got some good shit outdea five hundred dollars, we
Speaker 2: get it done. How many how much I watched that shit?
Speaker 1: Man?
Speaker 2: That's just smells think so, yeah, like you gotta pay
Speaker 2: everybody at the credits at the end of the movie.
Speaker 2: How many people you think up there for credits? Like
Speaker 2: six hundred people? That shit be rolling for a good
Speaker 2: five minutes.
Speaker 1: So a lot of people involved and make such a masterpiece.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into the storyline.
Speaker 2: I love this movie so much, so y'all know, I
Speaker 2: feel like the movie is about me because I'm a
Speaker 2: Gemini and there were twins in there, and we know,
Speaker 2: like twins represent like the duality in life. So so
Speaker 2: you also had like red and blue, so think about
Speaker 2: like the red and blue pill. You know, people take
Speaker 2: in life, right, right, So the main characters stack and
Speaker 2: smoke real names? Was Elijah and Elias? Do you know
Speaker 2: the story? Like the Elijah the prophet in the Bible,
Speaker 2: So Elias is supposed to be like basically another name
Speaker 2: for Elijah. So in the Bible they this is the
Speaker 2: only one person Elijah, right, But Elijah is supposed to
Speaker 2: or maybe whichever one derives from the other one. But
Speaker 2: in the Bible it's just Elijah the prophet. So Elijah
Speaker 2: or Elias is a prophet and miracle worker who lived
Speaker 2: in the Northern Kingdom of Israel during the reign of
Speaker 2: King Ahab Israel. Where these people are right now? Who
Speaker 2: say data ones? They not? According to the books of
Speaker 2: Kings in the Hebrew Bible, and one King's eighteen, Elijah
Speaker 2: defended the worship of the Hebrew deity Y'ahwegh over that
Speaker 2: of the Canaanite deity Ball. So, Y'ahwegh a name for
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, but it's his actual name because we know
Speaker 2: the letter J didn't exist during his time, right, So
Speaker 2: y'all weigh and then where you take out the vowels
Speaker 2: and you just have the concepts, it's your breathing. So
Speaker 2: every time you breathe, when a baby comes out the
Speaker 2: womb and takes that first breath, yeah, yeah, that's God.
Speaker 2: You're breathing is God. So that's why like breath work
Speaker 2: and all that shit is so important, because it helps
Speaker 2: you get more oxygen to your brain. You could think clear.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. I do a lot of
Speaker 2: breath work. I got this app I used called Open.
Speaker 2: Y'all should check it out. It's real good. Listen.
Speaker 1: I've never I'm a Southern lady, but I never wanted
Speaker 1: to fuck brothers so much.
Speaker 2: In my life a Southern lady, yo. Listen, all right,
Speaker 2: So Michael B.
Speaker 1: Jordan is not traditionally fine to me, but it's just
Speaker 1: something about the madness of that man.
Speaker 2: Oh my God, I really liked it. Yes, I really
Speaker 2: liked him in that movie, Like I get what you
Speaker 2: were saying.
Speaker 1: Now, yes, now, all right, it would have been cool
Speaker 1: to me if they could smoke a stack could have
Speaker 1: been Jonathan Majors and Michael B. Jordan playing brothers.
Speaker 2: No, that would have been good too, Yes, that would
Speaker 2: the same scenario brothers chew check. So Smoke wore the
Speaker 2: blue hat, right, and he represents like muscle the hand
Speaker 2: of God, and stack Elias he had the red hat,
Speaker 2: smooth talker. He represents the word of God. That's what
Speaker 2: I took from it, just from the meanings of the
Speaker 2: names Elijah and Elias. And then you got Remick the
Speaker 2: vampire who is Irish, and y'all know Irish people experienced.
Speaker 2: First of all, the original irishmen are black people. They
Speaker 2: had like blue eyes, dark skin. They don't really exist
Speaker 2: that much anymore. But you see him like you see
Speaker 2: these videos and she lay down on Instagram, these people
Speaker 2: be popping up.
Speaker 1: Oh maybe that nigga who marrying.
Speaker 2: Yeah he might be he might he might be original.
Speaker 2: He might be a vampire. Bitch.
Speaker 1: Listen, here you go.
Speaker 2: You see you see how it should be like.
Speaker 1: And that's why the ladies married him. After three weeks
Speaker 1: he was glamor second on their COUCHI.
Speaker 2: All right, yeah, so the Irish people experienced like something
Speaker 2: uh sick, kind of sort of the same you know,
Speaker 2: treatment that Africans did, and they were sent to America
Speaker 2: as indentured servants. While the Africans and the people, the
Speaker 2: indigenous people of this land, they had like a life
Speaker 2: sentence to slavery, right, So it wasn't until after slavery
Speaker 2: was kind of abolished, which this movie sets in like
Speaker 2: Jim Crow time Jim Crow Era is after slavery in Mississippi, right,
Speaker 2: and now you see how basically like how somebody can
Speaker 2: start then being the oppressor out of survival essentially, That's
Speaker 2: what I.
Speaker 1: When he was talking like he was like trying to
Speaker 1: encourage them to join him, he was making some good points.
Speaker 2: It wasn't us, yes, and the necessary evil, yeah right,
Speaker 2: because he wanted his people back, and that's all we
Speaker 2: be wanting. We be wanting our people to get together,
Speaker 2: like and I guess maybe he only that's the only
Speaker 2: way he saw this happening.
Speaker 1: But listen, the significance was how Sammy could use the
Speaker 1: power of music the power of our I think we
Speaker 1: don't give music the credit that we do, and how
Speaker 1: we do this is my religion. Listen, how we let
Speaker 1: our music be so dark and allow the darkness into
Speaker 1: our music when it really is a conduit, you know.
Speaker 2: And that's what Remick saw.
Speaker 1: That Sammy had this power with his guitar where he
Speaker 1: could bridge the gap between time in a way. You know,
Speaker 1: like that scene where they were in that juke joint
Speaker 1: and it was like girls torking, our ancestors dancing Africans
Speaker 1: dancing around the fire.
Speaker 2: You could feel all of it.
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I could feel.
Speaker 2: It in my spirit. Oh that scene was just like
Speaker 2: breath taking.
Speaker 1: Seriously, did you.
Speaker 2: See the part where they killed Annie because she saw
Speaker 2: that she was gonna die. She put her bones and
Speaker 2: shit out on the table, and she saw her fate,
Speaker 2: and that's why she asked. She told Smoke, listen, if
Speaker 2: this shit get bad, promise me you kill me right,
Speaker 2: because promise me you won't let me turn right. And
Speaker 2: they remember how the how Remick like every time he
Speaker 2: turned somebody, he got their thoughts and they acquired his.
Speaker 2: So now they're like a legion of demons. They're all interconnected,
Speaker 2: so they needed So Sammy is the grill. A grill
Speaker 2: is a person who like tells stories through like poetry, song, music, right,
Speaker 2: and they keep the history of the people like a
Speaker 2: human dictionary essentially, So Sammy was a human dictionary. So
Speaker 2: he needed Sammy's information that comes through the mitochondrial bloodline
Speaker 2: from your mom, right. It like it's just things you remember,
Speaker 2: Like it's shit that I have never read that when
Speaker 2: I see it, I'm like, I knew that, Or I'll
Speaker 2: know something. It's just like an inner knowing. Then I'll
Speaker 2: see something that gives me confirmation, Like this movie gave
Speaker 2: me so many confirmations just on like the things I
Speaker 2: already know.
Speaker 1: And that's another thing where I think, like pain and
Speaker 1: trauma is passed down from your your bloodline too.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, so he needed he needed Sammy's information. He also
Speaker 2: needed Annie's information right to bring his people back. So
Speaker 2: I'm wondering though, the one part I didn't get, like
Speaker 2: are they themselves once they get bit or are they
Speaker 2: a whole different entity?
Speaker 1: Girl? There was a different entity singing all that bluegrass
Speaker 1: country music and Irish and hit there was river dancing outside.
Speaker 2: They was not it? You know that wasn't there that
Speaker 2: wasn't there a status? You remember the movie The Key,
Speaker 2: what's it called the Key? Skeleton Key, Skeleton Key? Do
Speaker 2: you remember the movie? Mighta mind? I just watched that movie, like, uh,
Speaker 2: within the last couple of months again, but I probably
Speaker 2: done see that ship like ten times. Remember on Skeleton Key,
Speaker 2: Like it was the Africans that were now like in
Speaker 2: these white people's bodies. So I kind of thought like,
Speaker 2: maybe it's the opposite now, so it's like the white
Speaker 2: people in the black people's body. But I think we
Speaker 2: with this particular movie, we got to take race out
Speaker 2: of it.
Speaker 1: No, no, we can't. It's it's such a huge part
Speaker 1: of it because think about this, all the ages of
Speaker 1: Chaos were women, all right, So Mary, she went out there.
Speaker 2: She should have stayed her ass in the house.
Speaker 1: She was.
Speaker 2: She really kicked this ship off because she thought that
Speaker 2: she could be like in the middle. She thought that
Speaker 2: she could she didn't have to pick a side.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she could play both sides for the middle, which
Speaker 1: and she was the biracial character, right, so she was
Speaker 1: an age the chaos and who else was the Asian
Speaker 1: and chaos the Asian woman? Come on here, God, damn it,
Speaker 1: she invited them, motherfuckers, because right right, she invited them inside.
Speaker 1: You know, So those two women who were non black
Speaker 1: characters were the agents of chaos the whole time.
Speaker 2: For me, I agree, I agree. Let's talk about the
Speaker 2: Asian family. I just want to give a little history
Speaker 2: also with the movie. Y'all know, like back during Jim
Speaker 2: Crow time, when you think about racism in America, it's
Speaker 2: like only between black and white for the most like,
Speaker 2: that's what people think. But where were all these other people?
Speaker 2: They existed too, right, right, So the Asians played a
Speaker 2: big part in history in that time because they were
Speaker 2: basically empowered by white people to oppress us. So white
Speaker 2: supremacy has never just been about white people alone oppressing anybody, right,
Speaker 2: It has been a systematic thing, right, because they too
Speaker 2: came as immigrants. Well not too, because we were here, right,
Speaker 2: some of us were already here. So they too are
Speaker 2: now in America because they had they had things like
Speaker 2: some type of oppression that happened to them as well,
Speaker 2: and they had to come ended up coming here and
Speaker 2: they get reparations. They got reparations at some point too.
Speaker 2: We the only people who never got reparations right right,
Speaker 2: because they had them in concentrations, camps and shit like
Speaker 2: that on the soil at one point in history. But
Speaker 2: they were able to set up shop in black communities,
Speaker 2: and that allowed white people to then extract the resources
Speaker 2: indirectly from black people through the Asians because the Asians
Speaker 2: could get funding. Exactly, they had.
Speaker 1: Two stories in the black community. And listen, she only
Speaker 1: like when it was beneficial for her family. She's like,
Speaker 1: are we leaving? She sent her husband out there, and
Speaker 1: then when it was about her family and her family alone,
Speaker 1: she invited them in.
Speaker 2: She didn't give fuck is like my family Dead's not
Speaker 2: all y'all gotta die. And this is why black people like,
Speaker 2: we definitely be on an island by ourselves, you know
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. We really don't have allies in that way,
Speaker 2: even like and I'm gonna say this, and this is
Speaker 2: an ongoing argument between Black Americans, black people in America
Speaker 2: and Africans, you know what I'm saying, and different black
Speaker 2: skinned people across the diaspora. Everybody like niggas shit, but
Speaker 2: they don't like niggas, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 2: the same way that Asians will send their people to
Speaker 2: another country to another continent and empower them on that continent.
Speaker 2: Africans come to America and they send their money back home,
Speaker 2: why wouldn't they just help empower us here? Like why
Speaker 2: we gotta come to Ghana and get citizenship. It's cool,
Speaker 2: we could do duel, we could do both, but why
Speaker 2: not empower your people on every part of this world?
Speaker 2: Everywhere the biggest y'all are like like Africa's like.
Speaker 1: Essentially mean a lot of those people who are sending
Speaker 1: money home are sending money to poverty. You know, it's
Speaker 1: not like they they sending money are some of them
Speaker 1: are sending money back to rich family.
Speaker 2: There are a lot of rich people in Africa, like
Speaker 2: the way they depict Africa here in America, like Nigga's
Speaker 2: not Benedict and was like, I didn't even know America
Speaker 2: had bums on the street. They thought we was over
Speaker 2: here living the golden life.
Speaker 1: I mean in some places we are, but there are
Speaker 1: there is a lot of wealth in Africa, a lot.
Speaker 2: Now you did you see how Remick basically assimilated once
Speaker 2: he saw the ku klux lay gown on the bed,
Speaker 2: because initially he was calling the Indians chakta by their
Speaker 2: their names right. But the minute he realized who he
Speaker 2: was dealing with at the house, like when he was
Speaker 2: trying to get into the couple's house, the minute when
Speaker 2: he realized that they were the KKK, he assimilated. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he played on everybody shit and he played the role.
Speaker 2: And that also shows like in America, Italians don't consider
Speaker 2: themselves white. Irish don't really consider themselves white. They associate
Speaker 2: themselves with their body of land where they're from. I'm
Speaker 2: talking about actual Italians, actual Irish people.
Speaker 1: I would need to speak to one of them to
Speaker 1: hear what they have to say about that.
Speaker 2: They're not the same, you know what I'm saying. We
Speaker 2: be the same way, We're not the same. Like we
Speaker 2: be lumping people up in a group, just like Hispanics.
Speaker 2: We be calling people everybody Mexican. Everybody that speaks Spanish
Speaker 2: is not Mexican. Who does that? A lot of people
Speaker 2: do that. A lot of people assume Spanish speaking people
Speaker 2: are all Mexicans. They don't even think about all these
Speaker 2: other countries.
Speaker 1: That's very ignorant.
Speaker 2: It is ignorant, but it happens, You're right, So it
Speaker 2: is ignorant to say just because somebody has white skin,
Speaker 2: that they're white American, or that they're European.
Speaker 1: My grandmother and my grandmother was partially white, which is interesting.
Speaker 2: The grandmama was Mary, my great.
Speaker 1: Grandma was very My grandma was because my great grandmother
Speaker 1: was half white, my grandmother was.
Speaker 2: She had a black dad, so she was like three persons.
Speaker 1: I don't know how that works anyway, but she was
Speaker 1: an equal opportunity racist. I always say that, like she
Speaker 1: was racist against everybody, black, White, Asian, Hispanic, you name it.
Speaker 1: So I appreciate that.
Speaker 2: That's how I am. I mean, like, for the most part,
Speaker 2: I don't funk with nobody, Like, can't nobody walk behind me.
Speaker 2: I don't trust none of y'all niggas, none of them,
Speaker 2: none of them. So have y'all ever read the book?
Speaker 2: Have you ever read the book Delectable Negro? No? I
Speaker 2: encourage everybody to read The Delectable Negro. It's the human
Speaker 2: consumption and homo eroticism within US slave culture. And he
Speaker 2: has a little brief, little summary, so it basically talks
Speaker 2: about like how they were consuming black people during slavery,
Speaker 2: literally eating. Yes, do you remember in the movie where
Speaker 2: oh God, I should have wrote down a character names,
Speaker 2: but the guy who played the played the saxophone, and
Speaker 2: no was he playing yeah saxophone and singing the fine
Speaker 2: old man.
Speaker 1: His name is Delroy Lindo in real life, but his
Speaker 1: character's name was deada Slim.
Speaker 2: Delta Delta slim, so Delta slim. Do you remember when
Speaker 2: he was talking about when he passed, when they passed
Speaker 2: by the people slaving when they weren't slaving. Now we
Speaker 2: talk about fourteenth Amendment. They're in jail right because slavery
Speaker 2: just turned into the fourteenth Amendment. That's why we still
Speaker 2: got to get that shit abolished, because it's legal slavery
Speaker 2: if you commit a crime. But imagine you put in
Speaker 2: crimes and charges on black people to put them back
Speaker 2: in slavery. So when they were riding down that street car,
Speaker 2: get your hands up. And then he told the story
Speaker 2: of how the white people captured them and was taking
Speaker 2: them from place to place, making them play right. And
Speaker 2: he said how when the one guy like tried to
Speaker 2: break off and buck and tried to go off on
Speaker 2: his own, they lynched him right at the train station,
Speaker 2: and they ate they cut his dick off. They literally
Speaker 2: consumed black people. They ate us because we are magical.
Speaker 2: The melanin is magic.
Speaker 1: I do want to get eight. I ain't been eight
Speaker 1: so long. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: Sorry. So y'all read The Delectable Negro, okay, And you
Speaker 2: know in that book also it talks about the time
Speaker 2: we're currently in. Don't you know? The first biracial couple
Speaker 2: excuse me, trans biracial couple to get married happen right
Speaker 2: here in y'all in South Carolina. A black man married
Speaker 2: a white uh trans woman in America in Charleston.
Speaker 1: You know, I can't keep up with that.
Speaker 2: And in that book The Delectable Negro, they talked about
Speaker 2: how black men started to acquiesce to the advances of
Speaker 2: the white men because they weren't just raping black women,
Speaker 2: they were raping the men too. Buck breaking is where
Speaker 2: that comes from. And they started calling black men the
Speaker 2: lady of the race in the book, m and these
Speaker 2: are actual accounts from different people throughout that time, throughout slavery.
Speaker 2: They have actual accounts that you know, people the grios,
Speaker 2: they took down history and put it in this book.
Speaker 2: So I do suggest a lot of people to do
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: In Florida that they used to use black babies as
Speaker 1: gator bait. That is insane. That so I will never
Speaker 1: be There is no reparation that exists that would ever
Speaker 1: be enough for them that we've experienced in this country.
Speaker 2: And black people are washed up like we're the oldest
Speaker 2: on the planet and white people are the youngest, and
Speaker 2: they act like it. We will never ever be able
Speaker 2: to do the things that they did and do to
Speaker 2: get and maintain power. We're not gonna ever be able
Speaker 2: to feed their babies to an alligator. We're not gonna
Speaker 2: be able to use the babies as batting practice. They
Speaker 2: did that type of shit. Also, we're not gonna be
Speaker 2: able to consume and eat them.
Speaker 1: We would never want to, not even the have That's
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: That's not our genetic makeup. We can't. We can't do that,
Speaker 2: you know. So even things like uh, when people think
Speaker 2: of the devil and demons, they think of six sixty six, right,
Speaker 2: that they have literally even made that a bad thing,
Speaker 2: and it's not it's literally like the chemical uh makeup
Speaker 2: of melanin six protons, six neutrons, six electrons, and they
Speaker 2: call it the mark the beast, and who they this
Speaker 2: gorilla shit? Who the hell started the ship with the
Speaker 2: gorilla fighting, the whole world fight. One hundred men fighting.
Speaker 2: That is literally a representation of us, not calling us
Speaker 2: gorillas like they like to. But we know they like
Speaker 2: to call us monkeys. They used to call us monkeys, right,
Speaker 2: They like to associate black.
Speaker 1: People still do in mix with not in mixed company,
Speaker 1: you know. But first of all, I think that's like,
Speaker 1: how do you know what we were having bullshit to
Speaker 1: talk about one hundred men versus a gorilla? First of all,
Speaker 1: they talking about what was the female equivalent of that?
Speaker 1: There is not one, because we are not stupid.
Speaker 2: We're not partaking in that bullshit like imagine us. Right.
Speaker 2: This is why I say it's the representation of black people.
Speaker 2: We just chilling in our element, in our environments, and
Speaker 2: motherfuckers is working over time to figure out how to
Speaker 2: keep fucking us up for generations and generations like we
Speaker 2: not even wanting to fight. The gorilla is chilling, and
Speaker 2: it's in habitat and it's and it's happened that y'all
Speaker 2: trying to go over there and fight him for what,
Speaker 2: just to see if you can. That's what they do
Speaker 2: to us. We be chilling and they come over here
Speaker 2: fucking with us.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see what else Ryan Cooler is
Speaker 1: gonna cook up. I can't it solidify himself as a
Speaker 1: force to be recorded in the film industry. He already
Speaker 1: did that with A Black Panther, but this one, this
Speaker 1: one took him to Spielbird level.
Speaker 2: To me, yeah, I didn't A Black Panther didn't do
Speaker 2: this for me that this film didn't. It just didn't.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: It did display black excellence right, and it was it
Speaker 2: was very powerful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was powerful filming, but.
Speaker 2: It was It's just something. It's something different about this
Speaker 2: because it we definitely got to fix the music. The
Speaker 2: frequency is off, even the channels, our radio stations beyond, Like,
Speaker 2: the frequency is fucked up and we need to get
Speaker 2: back to a a good vibration listennigas when.
Speaker 1: Me and AJ went to see Drake and twenty one
Speaker 1: Savage in concert and we're in this building, we're all
Speaker 1: in this circular shape and doom and they saying murder,
Speaker 1: gang shit, murder, and this whole is chanting that ship.
Speaker 1: What did I say to you?
Speaker 2: I don't like this, this don't feel good, and I
Speaker 2: don't I don't be singing songs like that.
Speaker 1: This dude don't feel good to me. This do not
Speaker 1: feel good. I don't like.
Speaker 2: Who's in the middle.
Speaker 1: Drake is twenty one.
Speaker 2: Powering them up. And then they have a big guys
Speaker 2: statue of Virgil. Yeah, yeah, like it's like worshiping him
Speaker 2: as a deity of some sort. This statue was at
Speaker 2: least I don't know what, twenty foot tall.
Speaker 1: It was huge. It was more than twenty feet it was.
Speaker 2: However tall. It was big, big ass, just a big
Speaker 2: ass statue in the middle of the the coliseum. That
Speaker 2: shit is not just like, it's not just a concert.
Speaker 2: That's why I don't go to concerts. That's why I
Speaker 2: don't go to large events like that, Like where you're chanting,
Speaker 2: they telling you what to say. Beyonce did it the
Speaker 2: whole year. Last year and the year before, had people
Speaker 2: saying all type of shit. You got the little black
Speaker 2: and white, little shit that kind of programs your mind
Speaker 2: going on the screen like all these things. People don't
Speaker 2: realize what they be partaking it, but it's always signs
Speaker 2: and symbols for the conscious mind. You just gotta be
Speaker 2: paying attention.
Speaker 1: It had me very uncomfortable.
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm going to the bar, right, So
Speaker 2: what if we get back to because at the end
Speaker 2: of the movie, Sammy's now an old man in this
Speaker 2: jup joint he's playing at. He's played all around the world,
Speaker 2: and he still uses original instruments when he's playing, like
Speaker 2: you know, blues his guitar. So Stack and Mary walks
Speaker 2: in there at the very en and this is the
Speaker 2: part Timmy told me to wait till after the credits,
Speaker 2: no leave, So they walking down there in modern time.
Speaker 2: He had a he has on coooji. Old girl got
Speaker 2: on her little her little suited and.
Speaker 1: Booted with her and Blowpop listened. I resented her character.
Speaker 1: A part of me just had resentment for her character,
Speaker 1: And I just don't know why I felt.
Speaker 2: It, because she took her ass out there like she
Speaker 2: was one of them, so she was trying to play.
Speaker 2: She was married to a white man because basically Stack
Speaker 2: wanted to keep her safe, right, and he knew he
Speaker 2: couldn't be with her if they thought that she was biracial.
Speaker 2: Her mama was white and her daddy was black, and
Speaker 2: her mom raised them. So apparently their mom died at
Speaker 2: childbirth trying to birth Stack and Smoke ended up killing
Speaker 2: killing the father because he was abusing Stack. I think
Speaker 2: he blamed him for the mom's birth, the mom's death
Speaker 2: at birth. But Stack was trying to come out sideways
Speaker 2: when the mom when her mom was trying to deliver
Speaker 2: him as a baby. So she basically raised them. They
Speaker 2: went in the military too, because I remember at the
Speaker 2: end he had this whole thing full of and they
Speaker 2: always had a dog chains on. They used to be
Speaker 2: circle back then. Now they're square, but they used to
Speaker 2: be like circle, the military dog chains So these was
Speaker 2: military trained niggas. Let me ask you this before you
Speaker 2: get into the end.
Speaker 1: Do you what what kept I can't remember which one?
Speaker 1: Which one was the vampire Stack sack?
Speaker 2: Mm hm.
Speaker 1: Did what kept him from biting his brother? He tried
Speaker 1: to buy him, but he couldn't bite him. Was it
Speaker 1: was it the schigul that she created for him or
Speaker 1: she had from his dog?
Speaker 2: No, it was it was the sack. It was his
Speaker 2: his voodoo low, his voodoo low sack. Because remember at
Speaker 2: the end, he took it off because he was ready
Speaker 2: to die. He took it off and he was ready
Speaker 2: to die and be with his family. Yeah, to be
Speaker 2: with his family, with Annie and the baby. So that's
Speaker 2: what was protecting him, that protected him his whole life.
Speaker 2: He done been through a bunch of shit, but he
Speaker 2: had his little Sashel with his with his magic, and
Speaker 2: it for from his low one. Okay, and let me
Speaker 2: think that's the cover of a woman.
Speaker 1: Right, the power.
Speaker 2: All right, think about this too.
Speaker 1: When the white guys came to they were coming to
Speaker 1: kill everybody playing. They were coming and they couldn't The
Speaker 1: door was locked, they couldn't go in. So what's your
Speaker 1: idea on that. I thought that his brother was in
Speaker 1: there being protected from the sun. Even in death, he
Speaker 1: was still protecting his brother. He didn't let he didn't
Speaker 1: kill his brother, you know, like stake him, because he
Speaker 1: was already he's undead, right, so he didn't stake his brother.
Speaker 1: He could have staked his brother, but he didn't. And
Speaker 1: then he protected him from the sun by killing those
Speaker 1: white men.
Speaker 2: But you remember at the end though, when Sammy asked
Speaker 2: him how they got away, He asked Stack and Anna
Speaker 2: how they got away? They did like a they went
Speaker 2: back and they show you them running off. So when
Speaker 2: they all died at the at the at the river,
Speaker 2: when all the other vampire died at the river, along
Speaker 2: with Relic Remick. They didn't die, they had already ran off. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so I don't think they I don't think he was
Speaker 2: in the barn. They had already got lost by then.
Speaker 2: But I think he just had it locked. He locked
Speaker 2: the barn and then he was shooting gas from the forest.
Speaker 1: I thought he was protecting his brother from the sun.
Speaker 2: See. So they really don't tell you why he kept him,
Speaker 2: why they kept each other. But we know that Sack
Speaker 2: was protecting Smoke, but they really don't.
Speaker 1: I guess it's just a brother's.
Speaker 2: Love, right, like just remembering. And then he kept his
Speaker 2: promise also to Smoke to not kill Sammy. But now
Speaker 2: going back to the very end when they get to
Speaker 2: the Duke Joint, Sammy's an old man now, he doesn't
Speaker 2: played it all over the world. He basically rebuked the
Speaker 2: church and went on to play his music right, and
Speaker 2: Stack told him, like you know what I'm saying, like this,
Speaker 2: I love this music. That that new electric ship is cool,
Speaker 2: but it's just not what it is. So y'all know
Speaker 2: the Ataweights, Kanye West had a whole album called Ato
Speaker 2: Weights and Heartbreaks. The CIA created pro Tools. Pro Tools
Speaker 2: is a system that they use, you know, to create beats,
Speaker 2: so you have all these mechanical, computerized sounds. You no
Speaker 2: longer need the actual instruments. So we just playing the
Speaker 2: devil through this shit now. And when I say devil
Speaker 2: is just, it's not just. It's an entity. It's an
Speaker 2: energy that got our people fucked up. You see it
Speaker 2: in they clone tyrone, the chicken sandwiches and the music
Speaker 2: making you do shit, what niggas be playing when they
Speaker 2: go murder somebody, they planning to kill somebody, playing the
Speaker 2: worst fucking music possible while they go do these things,
Speaker 2: and they they we're allowed to create this normalized Yeah,
Speaker 2: and it's glorified because if you make some like what
Speaker 2: Drake said, Kendrick Lamar rap like he's trying to free
Speaker 2: the slaves, y'all think that's okay for a nigga to
Speaker 2: say that is not okay. Yeah, Like he wants to
Speaker 2: put more life into the music as opposed to rapping
Speaker 2: about that's all the time.
Speaker 1: Right. I'm here for that because I don't like that
Speaker 1: shit one bit.
Speaker 2: And we we somehow, I don't know how right, it
Speaker 2: just gotta be it really, and it's happening, but it's
Speaker 2: very slow, right, because there's a thing called one hundred
Speaker 2: monkey theories. So it just take me you having this
Speaker 2: conversation right now, right to spark that idea in the
Speaker 2: minds of our listeners, right, and then they then had
Speaker 2: the conversation with the next people. So it only really
Speaker 2: take one hundred motherfuckers. It only take a hundred monkeys
Speaker 2: to spread thought, to spread this thought. It's just like
Speaker 2: and what that theory is is like they teach the
Speaker 2: monkey to do something over here, and somehow the monkeys
Speaker 2: in another country start doing the same thing. It just
Speaker 2: spreads through the universe.
Speaker 1: Well, hopefully it'll catch because Slotter gangshit ain't okay.
Speaker 2: It's not, man, it's not because none of those rappers
Speaker 2: want that life of the children, right, but you don't
Speaker 2: give a fuck about other people's kids at all.
Speaker 1: Right, But then it's like, all right, we don't hold
Speaker 1: movies to the same standard, you know, like we don't
Speaker 1: hold actors. Why do we have because all right, that
Speaker 1: brings up the conversation like they're entertainers. This is entertainment
Speaker 1: you are to teach your children.
Speaker 2: But it's the music though, it's actually the actual beat,
Speaker 2: the actual music that these it's the frequency of these
Speaker 2: sounds that are coming out of your radio, coming out
Speaker 2: of your phone that you got to your air and
Speaker 2: a bluetooth electric like that. Shit has radiation coming through,
Speaker 2: programming your whole body. That's the difference. When you're watching
Speaker 2: a movie, it's no real sound other than the people talking.
Speaker 1: Well, there's music too in movies, but I get what
Speaker 1: you're saying, not as much as a different connection with
Speaker 1: the frequency of music than in movies.
Speaker 2: M Yeah, So it's really it's literally programming you if
Speaker 2: you're not consciously aware of what it is that you're
Speaker 2: listening to and what you're partaking in and what you
Speaker 2: reciting and repeating. You know. So, I ain't here to
Speaker 2: power nobody up. I just want to empower myself and
Speaker 2: the people who want to be empowered in a positive way.
Speaker 2: I mean, because on this realm, this hell realm we
Speaker 2: live in right now, like evil be prevailing like a motherfucker,
Speaker 2: but it is shifting. There is a shift, I feel it.
Speaker 2: That's why when people like we're gonna be back in
Speaker 2: slavery and all that, like, I feel more empowered now.
Speaker 2: More people be saying that we're gonna be back at
Speaker 2: who when? How like that's gonna be a choice for real.
Speaker 2: Y'all been mad at Kanye when he said slavery was
Speaker 2: a choice. But if y'all niggas go to slavery right now,
Speaker 2: you really made that choice. And literally we are making
Speaker 2: that choice. Who's but how we're collectively black people. It's
Speaker 2: not me and you, right, but collectively because these are
Speaker 2: still our people. There are a lot of people. Look
Speaker 2: how many black men are in prison. They chose that shit,
Speaker 2: a lot of them. A lot of them were kidnapped,
Speaker 2: just like back then. There's a lot of people who
Speaker 2: done died in prison and they got them buried in
Speaker 2: the back, and they still counting them on us sentenus.
Speaker 2: They've been murdered them. It's a lot of different weird
Speaker 2: shit going on amongst in prison.
Speaker 1: I watched last night and I think y'all should take
Speaker 1: the time to watch it. Shooting Guards on Netflix about
Speaker 1: Gilbert Arenas and Javares Crittinin Crittin, I can't think of
Speaker 1: how to say his last name, But what happens between
Speaker 1: those two young men in the NBA and how it
Speaker 1: leads to a murder of a young black mother of four.
Speaker 2: I didn't see that I never even heard about that.
Speaker 2: Didn't give it. Arenas get put out of He got
Speaker 2: put out the NBA because.
Speaker 1: Of it, right, No, he did not. The other guy
Speaker 1: ended up getting put out the NBA because of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Arenas didn't give it out the NBA.
Speaker 1: I think he got suspended fifty games and was able
Speaker 1: to come back and play. But the other guy, the rookie,
Speaker 1: he was expendable and he pretty much got They got
Speaker 1: rid of him.
Speaker 2: Didn't he pull a gun out on somebody?
Speaker 1: Yeah, they had guns in the locker room. And you
Speaker 1: watch that story and it is just heartbreaking when you
Speaker 1: said jail is a choice, because he ends up going
Speaker 1: that young man who was the rookie, Javar's Kritenom. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure if I'm pronouncing his last name right. But
Speaker 1: he ends up murdering a young black mother and only
Speaker 1: doing ten years in jail for it because because the
Speaker 1: deal that he made with the DA or something like that.
Speaker 1: A mother of four, she was twenty two years old.
Speaker 2: Why did he kill her?
Speaker 1: He got somebody the dude that she was, I don't
Speaker 1: know she was messing with the dude or not, but
Speaker 1: she was with this guy. He robbed him and he
Speaker 1: went back to retaliate against him for robbing him, and
Speaker 1: instead of shooting the guy who robbed him, he killed her.
Speaker 1: And yeah, and he's free now, and I feel bad,
Speaker 1: and honestly I feel bad for him as well. Y'all
Speaker 1: when you get a chance, watch Shooting Guards on Netflix.
Speaker 1: It just came out this week, might have came out
Speaker 1: yesterday or the day before, Shooting Guard. Shooting Guards and
Speaker 1: just how you know the system like it's fucked up, man,
Speaker 1: it's really fucked up. And how these young black men
Speaker 1: making poor choices in the trickle down effect. It caused
Speaker 1: this young black woman to lose her life.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I mean when people make a decision to
Speaker 2: do like crimes and stuff, it does, especially murder, it
Speaker 2: does not just affect you. And half of these men
Speaker 2: be having children of their own, So now you're creating
Speaker 2: a broken family and all because you got emotional. Like
Speaker 2: gangsters and thugs are the most emotional beings on this world.
Speaker 2: Like they want to kill you because you step on
Speaker 2: a fucking shoe, All right, Okay, they want to beef
Speaker 2: with you over a bitch they want to be but
Speaker 2: we call bitch ass nigga. No, it's just man shit.
Speaker 2: They they are just though it's just weak shit to
Speaker 2: want to kill somebody because of some shit that you know,
Speaker 2: could have been an accident, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 2: or just something that's not even worth losing your life
Speaker 2: over or taking a life over. They get so emotional respect.
Speaker 1: That's what his biggest thing was his respect, respect and
Speaker 1: giving respect and receiving it.
Speaker 2: Was he actually giving respect, was he being disrespected?
Speaker 1: He really wasn't a bad guy, honestly, Hey, j It's
Speaker 1: just really a sad situation because he just did not have.
Speaker 2: A black role model.
Speaker 1: He didn't have no father figure, he didn't have anybody
Speaker 1: to teach him how to be a man, you know,
Speaker 1: and he.
Speaker 2: Was just a kid. Him saying, Gilbert Arena has probably
Speaker 2: always been a bitch ass nigga, like harassed niggas. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he was yeah, antagonist, Yeah, very much, and you and
Speaker 2: probably pushed it to the limit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he really did.
Speaker 2: He really did that.
Speaker 1: And you'll see that in a documentary. He missed it
Speaker 1: that he was a prankster. He always rode the line
Speaker 1: of going too far, you know, with people. That was
Speaker 1: just what he did. And because he was like the
Speaker 1: star of this team. They would let him get away
Speaker 1: with shit. Mm hmmm, So y'all go watch that ship.
Speaker 2: Sound like a demon to me. Mm hmm, sound like
Speaker 2: a vampire to me.
Speaker 1: Right his life. But yeah, I know that was on
Speaker 1: the Tangent, but it was.
Speaker 2: The whole episode, was the Tangent, Bitch. I can say
Speaker 2: so many other things, like it's just the one last
Speaker 2: thing I want you to think about is the royal
Speaker 2: family over in Europe. Okay, you got King Charles the
Speaker 2: Third over there, do y'all remember when he got what
Speaker 2: is the big ceremony when they get like, you know,
Speaker 2: they become the now, like once his mom died, they
Speaker 2: made him the king or whatever. But the portrait that
Speaker 2: they put up of him, that portrait of him with
Speaker 2: all that red blood in the buyer. Yeah, so King
Speaker 2: charged Was the third is actually a descendant of Vlad
Speaker 2: the Empoler, the Impola and the Impaler is how you
Speaker 2: pronounce it, yeah, Glad the Impaler? All right? So uh,
Speaker 2: he's basically known as Dracula, Like that's where they get
Speaker 2: the word from, Like they named him Dracula. So King
Speaker 2: Charles the Third and that royal family that's over there
Speaker 2: sitting like they actually the heirs to the throne. They're vampires.
Speaker 2: Have y'all looked at King Charles or some of them
Speaker 2: family members, They don't look alive. You remember that one
Speaker 2: that was sitting in the back of the cart. Because
Speaker 2: I don't know who Carl. They could come over here
Speaker 2: if they want. I got some pickled garlic for that ass.
Speaker 2: Bring your ass over here if you want to. I'm
Speaker 2: definitely a damn dragon slayer. I like dragons. I'm definitely
Speaker 2: an vampire slayer.
Speaker 1: Exactly who you are because people be saying they don't
Speaker 1: know our it's a part and.
Speaker 2: Goddess is shot. That's who I am. Okay, so come
Speaker 2: over here if you want to, and you're gonna get
Speaker 2: shot with a silver bullet. But anyway, King Charles got
Speaker 2: all his land and all his property in Transylvania. Y'all
Speaker 2: know Transylvania is like famous for the vampires. That's where
Speaker 2: Dracula lived.
Speaker 1: But I think Dracula was from Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2: Get off my phone, anyway, y'all. I like I like
Speaker 2: these Little Rants. I love that movie so much. I
Speaker 2: cannot wait for it to come out on DVD or whatever.
Speaker 2: But I'm gonna watch that ship a couple more times.
Speaker 2: It's like, you know, you keep watching shit. You see
Speaker 2: other things like the crosses on the wall and the
Speaker 2: church that's like the Sun, the God, the Holy Spirit,
Speaker 2: like the Holy Trinity. Like, yeah, I want to watch
