1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: When someone say, do it, see what happens, don't do it.

2
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: If somebody say, oh, say something else, don't say nothing else.

3
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: I wish you would, You shouldn't. Your actions have consequences

4
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 1: and repercussions. Some people open hand slap. Sometimes your best

5
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:31,840
Speaker 1: bet is to just stop running your mouth. Take that out.

6
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: But other things that don't go unpunished and unchecked continue

7
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 1: to happen. As the young prophet Old Dog said in

8
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: Minister Society, I ain't letting that ship ride. Let's talk

9
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: about Andre Chromo and the baby who politics, y'all. It's

10
00:00:51,120 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: so hood right now, politics, y'all, so hood. Listen. Nonverbal

11
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: communication is one of the survival skills you learned in

12
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: the area that I grew up in, and you learned

13
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: different code words of when it's probably either time to

14
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: throw hands because somebody's gonna throw it before you do,

15
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: or maybe you should just fall back because you're gonna

16
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: lose this battle. There's some battles you just not gonna win.

17
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: Just live to fight another day, come back with the homies,

18
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 1: or just leave this one alone. I know when the

19
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: vatos go, I don't give a folk ony. That means yeah,

20
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: it's about to go down and how that has developed

21
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: a lot of times, it is the degree for which

22
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: these people make it clear that they are not the ones.

23
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: keV on stage he got a merch shirt that say

24
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: you can do all things through Christ except play with me.

25
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: What do I mean by I'm not the one? Anybody

26
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: ever day of the black and knows exactly what I mean?

27
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: She say, I'm not the one that usually means you're

28
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: playing with her. You're playing a little too much. She

29
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: gonna let you have it with a black woman, saying Okay, yes,

30
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: the nah, homie, you didn't already crossed the line, and

31
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: you learned very quickly not to cross that line again.

32
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 1: I watched my mama say that to my daddy. Okay,

33
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: walk out this house one more time. I'm I'm laughing,

34
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: but it's trauma because that was essentially the like, the

35
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: last conversation before they split was final. She was like,

36
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: walk out this house one more time. You You you

37
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: know that you there's there's a line that has been crossed,

38
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: and there's no going back. The only way back is

39
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: the l apologizing correctly and make that mug right. So

40
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: I guess this is about accountability and how you get

41
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 1: accountable politically speaking. I watched Andrew Cuomo and I watched

42
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: The Baby, and to catch you up on both these

43
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: scenarios and why I think they matter is it has

44
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: to do with the people for which they crossed, and

45
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: the people for which they crossed are in hood terms,

46
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: not the ones you won't you won't play with them,

47
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: and I think that there's a way we can become that.

48
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 1: I don't know if y'all just saw Corey Booker stand

49
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: up in front of that whole Senate and just blistering

50
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: lee support the Blues. The Blue Lives Matter squad made

51
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: it very clear in no uncertain terms that they have

52
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: no plans on defunding the police. It mean he ain't

53
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: scared of us. And I'm gonna take each scenario piece

54
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: by piece and unpack what I mean by this. If

55
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: you don't know, the Baby said at Rolling Loud, uh,

56
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: some pretty homophobic statements. Now, before we even go further, though,

57
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 1: let me make it clear and no uncertain terms, that

58
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: the Hood Politics podcast with propaganda does not stand for

59
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: no kind of mess this in my queer community family. Okay,

60
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: I won't stand for no slights towards nobody. This look

61
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: you out of pocket. You out of pocket, don't You

62
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 1: don't stand for no indigenous slander. I don't stand for

63
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: no black slander. I don't stand for no brown slander.

64
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: I don't stand for no Lakers slander. I'm just playing

65
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: sometimes I'll stand for that. But whatever, you get what

66
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: I'm saying. We got y'all, we allies, same team. Let's

67
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: push the line. Now, let's keep on. It just didn't

68
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: go well, especially his version of apology. So what he

69
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: started off with was he was making a statement about like, ladies,

70
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: if you came here with no STDs, makes a noise,

71
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: blah blah bla about your you know, put your lighters up,

72
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: puts flashlight on. Then he was like, fellas if he

73
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: wasn't sucking dick in the in the parking lot, put

74
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: your lighters up. He was to get the next song up.

75
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,919
Speaker 1: Now there was another guy that was probably the DJ,

76
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: that put some extra sauce on him tacos that added,

77
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: like some of y'all nucas, Hill was suspect. That's what

78
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: pushed it over into even further into the homophobic thing.

79
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: Now it's important to note that since then I think

80
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 1: I saw an article today was today Monday, the thirty one.

81
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: I recorded this a long time ago. This is an

82
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: add in um because this new news came up. He

83
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: had been spending time off mike, off camera, off social

84
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: media with a HIV advocacy group, like learning really what's

85
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: going on with this, And ultimately that makes this story

86
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 1: go from like who say something else to more like, oh,

87
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: this is more like discipline, like like hood check. Discipline

88
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 1: is something that happens in gang culture when somebody's in

89
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 1: on on this set not doing right by the set,

90
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, And for outside looking in,

91
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: it's like, this is harsh, but it's for the good

92
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: of the set and for the good of that person.

93
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: Good in air quotes, but in this scenario, this is

94
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: what you want again, harp on this all the time

95
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: like I don't believe cancer culture, like y'all say, I

96
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: don't think it's a thing, but cancel culture in this

97
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,239
Speaker 1: scenario to where it's like, no, it's more like, look,

98
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,359
Speaker 1: I need you to learn about this stuff, and the

99
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 1: hope and hope that you bounce back and become a

100
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: better person at the end of it. And I'm gonna

101
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: say this at the end of the show, but I

102
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: believe the baby will be fine. I believe he will

103
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: go do the learning that he needs to go do

104
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: and will come out come out better. And this article today,

105
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: as in the thirty one, even though I recorded this

106
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: a month ago. This the rest of this episode kind

107
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: of shows that that's what happened, you know. And uh yeah,

108
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: anyway back, let me give you some context about baby

109
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: and what the baby represents. The baby is. I mean,

110
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: he's a street nigked Charlotte, North Carolina, you know, straight

111
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: out the block. Just uh, he's just a hood dude.

112
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: And the embracing of the l g B, t q

113
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: I a community is not of high priority for hood dudes.

114
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: You know, in hip hop, especially the high bravado type

115
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: hip hop, it takes a while for artists to grow

116
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: and to see more of the world. I think y

117
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: G and Nipsey both have made statements to where they

118
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: were like, if there's anything I'll regret, I regret a

119
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: lot of like some of the the gay slurs that

120
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: I've said it in my past. You know, once you

121
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: get all that you get out of the hood, you

122
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: just don't you don't know no different. You know a

123
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: lot of gay stuff that goes down. That stuff either

124
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: goes down on the low or in jail. So it

125
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: seems like in in in a lot of street turns

126
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: of scenes, it's like a power play. It's the it's

127
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: the softest a man can be in in their context.

128
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: This is no excuse, this is just explanation, you know.

129
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: So for him to say that is not in a

130
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: lot of ways out of touch with how hood niggas

131
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: are rap. They don't make it right. Again, it's context.

132
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 1: It is a very new phenomenon that this generation is

133
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: much more clearly, much more open and inclusive and understanding

134
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:52,239
Speaker 1: sort of the intersectionality of black, trans black queer community

135
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,839
Speaker 1: and how all that stuff, you know, kind of interplace

136
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: and and and works together. This generation is much different.

137
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: Now interesting, you think, enough, he's from this generation, but

138
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 1: he's also he's just a street nigger. Street niggas don't

139
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: they're just not a part of that sort of advocacy.

140
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: Because when you in the streets like that, it's maslow again.

141
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: You in constant fight or flight kind of situation. You

142
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: in constant survival mode. You're just repeating what you were taught,

143
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 1: you know, and it's not okay. It's just how it

144
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: is so in typical hood artist situation, you get on

145
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: your gram and you try to defend yourself and you

146
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: explain like in the way that he explained, like oh, y'all,

147
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 1: wasn't there you know my gay fans. No, that's not

148
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: what I was doing. That's not what I was talking about.

149
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: You know. I was making a comment about STDs and

150
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: taking care of yourself, which kind of felt like a stretch,

151
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: but you gotta do some sort of damage control. Then

152
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: it got so far that he started sucking up the money.

153
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: He sucked up his own bag, and he was sucking

154
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: up the bags of a bunch of events. So events

155
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: started dropping him because there was a really big outcry

156
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: about like, man, you don't know nothing about AIDS epidemic.

157
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: It's not just a gay thing. And no matter how

158
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: much you clean that up, it's still a homophobic statement.

159
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: And I understand the hood in them to be like, well,

160
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: I said what I said. You stand on your square.

161
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: You try to clarify, but you don't take it back. However,

162
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: the money was starting to get messed up, so let's

163
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: try to clarify again. Then you try to go back

164
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: again and explain that like, look, man, social media be

165
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: blowing stuff up. They pile on. You don't give me

166
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: a chance to learn. I needed to learn. I apologize

167
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: for my statements that were hurtful, they were unintentional, and

168
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: he released like an official apology. Now I'll know that man.

169
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: I don't know his streets, I don't know his hood,

170
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: I don't know the people around him, but I do know. Again,

171
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 1: like I said earlier, context, when you come from these hoods,

172
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: you have to learn this stuff later, and unfortunately, with celebrity,

173
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: you learn it in the eyes of everyone. I learned

174
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,559
Speaker 1: to let go of a lot of homophobic views and

175
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: off to my in private among friends, among homies, traveling,

176
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 1: meeting people, interacting you you you you, you undo all

177
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: this stuff. Of course, you know what I'm saying. I'm black.

178
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 1: I come from black church. You know what I'm saying.

179
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: I come from inner city church. And yo, we had

180
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: the same views every other church had, you know what

181
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and you know, in the black church it

182
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: was like, well acchoed director, we all know, I mean,

183
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: we know, you just don't talk about it. You know,

184
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: you don't, you don't crack jokes. You know it's there,

185
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: but you just don't talk about it, and among the

186
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: Black community historically, there was this view that the LGBTQ

187
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: community was equating their suffrage to the suffrage of African slaves.

188
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: And for you know, a generation of activists before us,

189
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 1: it felt like an assault because we were at a

190
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: time to where we thought. Especially if you think about

191
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: the MLK generation, they were Baptist preachers. I mean, these

192
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 1: people were revolutionaries, but they were also very misogynistic, Like

193
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: they didn't allow women to preach, so of course they

194
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 1: weren't inclusive and affirming, you know what I'm saying. So

195
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 1: they had this belief that almo sexuality was a sin.

196
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,599
Speaker 1: So you were creating your sin to my skin. So

197
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: when you come from that, you gotta get out the block.

198
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: You gotta meet other people, you gotta learn other things

199
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: for your worldview to expand. It's like how Mark Twain

200
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 1: was like, you know, travel is the greatest cure of ignorance,

201
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and ends prejudiced to just

202
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: open your mind up to stuff you gotta get out

203
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: and to be like, okay, see these views are like

204
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: super damaging. I'll see what I'm doing now. I understand

205
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 1: things like critical race theory and intersectionality and how you know,

206
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: you could be black and queer, and how the power

207
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: dynamics and oppression and how this stuff works. There's just

208
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 1: this view that like where we come from, that it's

209
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: something else. It took a lot of work, and it

210
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 1: takes a lot of work for people of color who

211
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: again come from these like traditional Baptists and Catholic like

212
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: it's in the Latino community, to these these backgrounds that

213
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 1: you know, Latino community with their very traditional machismo, like

214
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: you know, men are manly men, you know what I'm saying,

215
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: Like to really open your eyes and embrace like the

216
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: full spectrum of who we are and where we come from.

217
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: It takes a while. It just happened in front of

218
00:13:30,920 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: millions of people with him. Now to take that I

219
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: want you to take from this is people say, wow,

220
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 1: you can just the great women. You could call women

221
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: all kind of names and hose and bitch as, you

222
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: could say nigga. You could do whatever you want to women.

223
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: But as soon as you offend the queer community, and

224
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: everybody want to stop. Everybody want to stop, everybody want

225
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: to say, everybody want to take the baby down. Because

226
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: he finally talked about the queer community. But all this

227
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: stuff about women all through hip hop. Hip hop is

228
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: very misogynistic, very we're killing our own. How come that's

229
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: not a problem, but the queer community is a problem.

230
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about that comparison. Here's the lesson I

231
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: want you to know. It's because them niggas don't play

232
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: the my my my homeboy calls it the alphabet game,

233
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: the l g B t q i A, they called

234
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: the alphab plus called the alphabet alpabat gang don't play.

235
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: They're not gonna stand for it. They will funk up

236
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 1: your money. And the lesson we need to learn is

237
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: they get results because they have action. They be holding

238
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: people accountable. I'm not coming and this is the energy

239
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: I would hope that we start bringing to our elected

240
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: officials where it's like, hey, homey, you said you was

241
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: gonna do this, you're not doing it. We're not showing

242
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 1: up for you. It's that simple. It's because when you say, hey, listen,

243
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: black people voted for Democrats, like we carried their votes.

244
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: We put these niggas in office. They said they was

245
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: gonna have police reformed by May. Then they was like, yo,

246
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it before the August recess. Nothing and

247
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: then we all just watch We're not we all us

248
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: nerds that watch stuff like this all Corey Bucker just

249
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: be like, listen, we're not about that. What's up with

250
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: the back? Are we still on some back to blue

251
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: no matter who? Like, I'm not saying let's jump ship,

252
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: but I am saying when they call us on to

253
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: start stumping for him to be like, Yo, where's your receipts?

254
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: I mean, thank you for the child tax credit? Thanks,

255
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: but fam, this is what we asked you to do.

256
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: What the hell queer community was like, say another homophobic thing.

257
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: See what happens. Guess what niggas don't say another homophobic thing.

258
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: Niggas fall back and hopefully human and human there is

259
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: an actual lesson to be learned. Hopefully, you know, you

260
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: start choosing your words a little more wisely, you don't

261
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: realize the damnage you're doing. He's don't realize even though

262
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: it ain't in the news. No more. I believe the baby.

263
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: I believe he probably was like damn, I never even

264
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: all right, you know, I appreciate being dragged on social media,

265
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: like nig you're not gonna drag me no more, but like, hey,

266
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: that's you know what I'm saying. I never thought of

267
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: it like that. I believe the best in him, But

268
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: I think that happened because LGBTQ don't play They could

269
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: get this right or get left. We know we're not

270
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 1: playing games. And I think the baby heard him because

271
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: you put out an apology. Now granted, I will say this,

272
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: you like media savvy. One oh one is you don't

273
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 1: lead with a defense to yourself in an apology, which

274
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 1: you kind of did. But that said, I believe him.

275
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 1: I believe that he was like trying to do some

276
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 1: damnage control and then realized like, oh no, I don't.

277
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 1: You can't mess with them. You gotta like you gotta

278
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: make this right. This community also understand who to bring

279
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: the heat too, because they went to the festivals and

280
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: was like, you gotta drop him or we ain't coming.

281
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 1: They understand how to how to bag moves, and in

282
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: corporation is just worried about the bag. Why do they

283
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: book artists not because they fans' is because they fans

284
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,880
Speaker 1: of the people that they're gonna bring. Do you understand

285
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: what I'm saying? So when you stop being able to bring.

286
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: I'm an artist. I'm a hip hop artist. I understand.

287
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: I've had listen, I've had radio program directors tell me

288
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 1: I'm their favorite artist, but they'll never play my music

289
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: because I just don't fit their programming. Then being a

290
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 1: fan of my music, don't know. They're like, we got buired.

291
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 1: I'm we here for the buyers, but the buyers don't

292
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,360
Speaker 1: like you. We don't like you. So the baby makes

293
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 1: actually a good point, even in his defense, it's like,

294
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: y'all really don't care about the culture. You care about

295
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: the fact that I have access to the culture. He's

296
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 1: telling the truth. That's true. They really you book him

297
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 1: because he's hot. They don't love him, which in a

298
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: lot of ways goes back to a person's hood. Antennas

299
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 1: you and this thing. You're just like, oh, these niggers

300
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:43,639
Speaker 1: don't love me. Like I know, y'all don't love me.

301
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: So I just need to get here, get my bag, dude,

302
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: I gotta do, you know, do my movement, talk to

303
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: my talk to my tribe, and talk to him. Well,

304
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: so when somebody else peaks into your tribe, you like

305
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: nig block, you don't, it's none of your business. You

306
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: don't know you don't. You don't even know, like you

307
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: don't even know what we're doing over here. I get

308
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 1: why that would be his defense, But listen, LGBTQ committing there. Look,

Speaker 1: they're gonna You're gonna respect them. It's what you just saw.

310
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna respect them for you. So my hope is

311
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: that he we we saw brought to the baby, we

312
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: bring that same energy to the Congress, to the legislation,

313
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: to your governor, to your senator, to Yo, to Yo,

314
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 1: your mayor. You feel me bring that heat. Start messing

315
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: up his money, start messing up her money, start messing

316
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: up their money. I'll tell you what. They started apologizing me.

317
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: You started messing with their money. I mean, I still

318
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 1: can't get over Like, I mean, we had an entire

319
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 1: summer trying to show all the problems with them, and

320
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: I mean and and and to Joe's uh defense, he

321
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: said in the beginning, like, yeah, I'm not a I'm

322
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: not a defundant police guy. I'm here to perform them.

323
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: I have the police, and but they're not doing anything.

324
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I mean it was, I mean, we

325
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 1: had a whole summer of protests. It don't y'all they're

326
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: not scared of us, but they're scared of somebody though. Whoo.

327
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: Which brings us to Governor Andrew Cuomo. Now he didn't

328
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: step down, but before that man stepped down broad the way,

329
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: he tried to bring that energy to be like y'all

330
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 1: gonna leave you a low My favorite part of his defense.

331
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna get to that yet. Let's back

332
00:20:51,359 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: up real quick, Andrew Cromo. Andrew Cromo is New York legacy.

333
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: They are the Cuomo family is a dynasty. The thing

334
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 1: about New York and New York governorship, their state government

335
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: office is I mean legendary in the corruption I mean legendary.

336
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: I mean the names that I mean. Roger Stone is

337
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: even a part of, like some of the story in

338
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: the history of like Albany All Bully, shout out my

339
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 1: man Seth Static from MC dope artists from Albany, New York,

340
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: and they called it all Bully, Get it Albany all Bully. Anyway,

341
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: the corruption up there is like I mean, it's it's

342
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 1: at Chicago level, Like it's just ridiculous. There's a pod,

343
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 1: a really dope pod called American Scandal, and they do

344
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: a couple of dives into the Cuomo family and in

345
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 1: their history. Now have you ever taken put your eyes

346
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: on Andrew Cuomo and his brother Chris Cuomo, who's on CNN.

347
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,360
Speaker 1: They are like just off looking at them. You're like, oh,

348
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: y'all New York Italians, like, y'all are you you on brand?

349
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 1: Y'all are on Brand New York Italians. And I'm saying this,

350
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: and I'm stepping out on a limb saying this, But

351
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: this is hood politics. It's kind of impossible. Just like

352
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: if you're from certain parts of Los Angeles and surrounding

353
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 1: areas and around my age, you affiliated with gangs, It's

354
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: just someone in your family, one of your homeboys. You

355
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: don't have some run ins you are connected. It's impossible.

356
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,719
Speaker 1: It's the air we breath. It's impossible to be our

357
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 1: age and not somehow or another connected with some sort

358
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: of set. I'm gonna say, to be the a age

359
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 1: from New York and Italian. It's impossible for them to

360
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: not be in some way, shape or form connected to

361
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: the crime families. It's just you can't use your antennas. Man,

362
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: It's impossible now to make the jump to say that

363
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 1: that's how he got an office, he's using muscle or that.

364
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: That's gross speculation. And dare I say it slightly racist?

365
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 1: You can't like, yeah, no, you can't be You can't

366
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: do that to them, Like you can't say because he's Italian,

367
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 1: he is a member of the mob and the mob

368
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: helped him into all. That's that's ridiculous. You can't say that,

369
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: just like you can't say to every black person. I

370
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 1: remember once at this church event so that he walked

371
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 1: up to me and she was just like, hey, so

372
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: you know before you're a Christian? Were you a crip

373
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 1: or a blood? And I was like, excuse me, man,

374
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 1: like how so offended? But was like, well, my family

375
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: was cript. I was like, well, I grew up with

376
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: the Vato so like I lived in it. I lived

377
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: in a Latino neighborhood. But why you ask me? You

378
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So I don't want to do

379
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: that to the Cuomos. Now that said, I mean, I

380
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: I do got family, like you know I do. No

381
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,920
Speaker 1: Nigga's like, I don't you You're right in that sense,

382
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 1: but you don't get to be racist anyway. Cuomos have

383
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 1: for a long time, that family has had a grip

384
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 1: on New York government. So in a season of me too,

385
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: where the Democrats have attempted to position themselves as the

386
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: party of justice, at least when they run. And you know,

387
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: liberals is very different than Progressive, which very different than moderates.

388
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 1: You know, all this good stuff, but they've attempted to

389
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: present themselves, especially as a foil of the extremism that

390
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 1: Donald Trump was. These differences are clearly seen in the

391
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: speech Corey Booker gave. Keep coming back to that that

392
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 1: we have no interest in really doing much about the police.

393
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 1: I can't get over that, dude. I guess could it

394
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 1: just happened anyway? So they tried to be the opposite

395
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 1: of it. They you know, it's posturing. You know what

396
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,360
Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's Biggie Tupac like you had. They they

397
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 1: picked a side and decide that they were attempting to

398
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 1: pick was the side that was, we believe women. We're

399
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: here to you know, we're here to uh to see

400
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 1: climate change slow down. We are We're here to see

401
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 1: you know, racial and political and social justice happened. Now. Granted,

402
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,160
Speaker 1: we know this is all lift service because I don't

403
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 1: need to get into that. But either way they presented

404
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: themselves as such, right, and then ran a cop for

405
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: vice president. Let me just go and I mean, don't

406
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: bring that energy. Ill love you, Auntie Kamala, but you

407
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: a cop anyway. And then you know a few years

408
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: back that it's hard to not hearken back to Al Franken,

409
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: who took it like a chap who in his situation,

410
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: some allegations came up. He was like, listen, I don't

411
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: remember it the way they do, but I'll step down.

412
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 1: He took that l which if we're gonna get into

413
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: the greater conversation and cancel culture, which is I'm gonna

414
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 1: still say not a thing the way that y'all say it.

415
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: It's what you want. You have a way to hold

416
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: those in power accountable. He heard the allegations. I don't

417
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: remember it that way, but there's two people in a moment,

418
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: and I'll step down. If it's better for the party,

419
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: it's better for the hood, it's better for the set,

420
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 1: I'll step down. And he did. And I think that's

421
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 1: the goal, Like it's not to in somebody's life, do

422
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 1: you know, to ruin him forever, but to oh somebody accountable.

423
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, um, and he did the

424
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 1: right thing. Now it's his situation identical to Cromo ab

425
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 1: solutely not. But I think that's an interesting example of

426
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: how in the Democratic Party they attempted to do the

427
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 1: right thing. Uh, in relation to at least front facing

428
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: I take care of these these these situations. Now republic Is,

429
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 1: on the other hand, it's like we go down with

430
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: the ship like you are boy, you are boy. You

431
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. They live that, we ride you

432
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: feel the uh, which for better or for worse. I'm

433
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: just saying that's what they've been doing it now. You know,

434
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: Oh boy, that's a dog on Supreme Court justice now

435
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: out there boofing, getting getting drunk as hell and just

436
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: out there while with these girls. They was like she tripping.

437
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: They don't know what she's talking about. It's ridict it's wrong,

438
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: it's not funny. What I'm not I'm not laughing at

439
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: sexual assault. Y'all know that, right that this is incredibly awful.

440
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:35,679
Speaker 1: I'm laughing from the uncomfortable nous that the Republicans they

441
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: get a like I don't. I don't get fucked. That's

442
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: our boy. And it's more like not like oh my God,

443
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: that's funny. It's just like, damn, I can't believe it

444
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 1: unless you just the boss, just the boss you out,

445
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: which is crazy. Back to Andrew Cuomo, So a bunch

00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 1: about him, you know, putting young interns and workers in positions,

450
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: young ladies in positions to where like you know, invite

Speaker 1: Like all these things kind of came up, and he,

453
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: of course off top denied it. Then there's these awesome

454
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: pictures I'm saying, awesome, you know, you know what I

455
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: mean by awesome, These awesome pictures of this fool at parties,

456
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: like grabbing cheeks and face cheeks, not booty cheeks, grabbing

457
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: face cheeks, and these young ladies when he meets them,

458
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, really old man stees. But

459
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: the best part of his defense was this montage that

460
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: this man put together defending himself about how handsy he is.

461
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: It's these pictures of and he's like, listen, listen, I'm Italian.

462
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: I come from a big Italian family. We're affectionate. He's like,

463
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,959
Speaker 1: and I do this to everybody, black, white, gay, straight,

464
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: male female. And he's got this video of him in public,

465
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 1: you know, touching, kissing cheeks, blah, being like what he

466
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: would call just an Italian grandpa. And the most funniest

467
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: part to me was the idea that he really thought

468
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 1: this was gonna defend him. I'm like, homie, this ain't

469
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: communicating what you think it is. I was talking to

470
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 1: this o G, who I'm not gonna I'm not gonna

471
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 1: name no names, talking to this o G. And he

472
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: was talking about like really trying to teach these young niggas,

473
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: like better ways to be right. So he was telling

474
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: the young nigga about this story about you in the streets.

475
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, somebody disrespect you. You know

476
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, kind of get out of pocket. You're like,

477
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: you know this little nigga too like the booty to

478
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 1: be talking like this. So in the streets you're supposed

479
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: to go, You're supposed to mark this nigga. And he

480
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 1: was telling this story where he was encouraging foods, like, man,

481
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 1: just go rob and beat him up a little bit,

482
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like you get your respect,

483
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 1: Like that was his advice. His advice was like, yo,

484
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 1: n just just go just hit lick man and live

485
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: to survive another day. Like I was like, Yo, that's

486
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: this is like that streets it like that's actually good advice,

487
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: you know, saying because at least nobody died. At least

488
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 1: you got a murder case. Like, but I'm like, making

489
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: it's not communicating what you think it is. You feel me.

490
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 1: I remember one of my homeboys used to be like,

491
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: you know, back when selling we was you know, illegal.

492
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: He would say, man, you know, I mean I slang,

493
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: but like only enough for a misdemeanor. So I just

494
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: I'll just be telling young homies like carry enough on you.

495
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: That's like not a felony. And I'm like, okay, that's

496
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: I guess that sound advice, you know, like you're trying

497
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 1: to communicate to me that you're doing the right thing.

498
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I don't know if it's coming off

499
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: the way you imagine it coming off. It's this video

500
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 1: was that where I was just like bro pro pro Yeah, yeah,

501
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 1: you ever had to look at you ever had to

502
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 1: look at your sibling what they was trying to give, give,

503
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: give your parents to what had happened was a story.

504
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: And you're doing to like chop the neck like stop

505
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: stop stop stop stoping eight bro, he shut the fun

506
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying, like this is not

507
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: You're not helping yourself. I'm trying to tell you you're

508
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: not helping yourself. That was this Andrew Cuomo video. I

509
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: was like, this the funniest should I ever seen in

510
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 1: my life because you really think this is helping. It's

511
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: not helping. Now. As a side note, come on now,

512
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: y'all know, use your antennas. Big Homies called Cuomo and

513
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 1: was like, you need to sit your ass down. We're

514
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: not playing with your asks. No more sucking up the money,

515
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: sucking up the move. I don't care. I don't care

516
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: how long you've been out here. I don't care. Like

517
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this one more time. Stop running your

518
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:50,959
Speaker 1: motherfucking mouth and step down now we listen use your antennas.

519
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: Of course that happened, but anyway, let's get back to it.

520
00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 1: So and it's just like I said with the hood

521
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 1: like you. You. I said what I said, I did

522
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: what I did. You know what I'm saying. You don't

523
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: like you don't back off nods, because again, politics are

524
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: just like good stuff. You just know I did what

525
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: I did. Y'all misunderstood. You just out clarified, But y'all misunderstood.

526
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 1: I'm not the problem. Y'all just misunderstood. You weren't there,

527
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 1: just same way the baby was like, no, y'all weren't there. Finally,

528
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 1: as of this morning, this is August Tent. He resigns.

529
00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: But in his resignation speech, he was like, Okay, to

530
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: drag the taxpayers out into this long situation, this ain't

531
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 1: good for everybody. I'm just gonna fall back. But I

532
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: want you all to know there is still an anti

533
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: Italian sentiment across New York. I was being cultural. We

534
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: are touchy feely people, and and I'm from a different

535
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 1: generation like you applying these rules to me, And I'm like,

536
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: I just why are you guys not understanding of the

537
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: fact that, like, I'm just from a different world, y'all

538
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: are being judgmental and prejudice towards my culture. But I'll

539
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 1: fall back. I'll fall back. I will resign. That is

540
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: a lot to unpack with that statement. One of the

541
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 1: things to unpack with that statement is again the understanding

542
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: and importance of critical race theory and white supremacy, how

543
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 1: all that stuff works. You have to remember that in

544
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 1: a lot of really white supremacists, far right circles, they

545
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: don't think Italians are white people. It's the strangest thing,

546
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,439
Speaker 1: but they they honestly believe Italians or something other than white,

547
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 1: which is now again whiteness blackness. Social construct have to

548
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: do with power and control. So we understand that, and

549
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 1: the structuring formation of whiteness was a foil to justify slavery.

550
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,800
Speaker 1: We understand this nonetheless, But they don't think Italians is

551
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 1: is white. Now Italians know they white, they also know

552
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,240
Speaker 1: they know they're white in the sense that we ain't niggas.

553
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 1: And if you know anything in the history of of

554
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: of Brooklyn, and when Brooklyn kind of switched from Italian

555
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: and black in the amount of like just go watch

556
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: the movie do the Right Thing, that's a good example

557
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,279
Speaker 1: of the cross between these two cultures. Now that said,

558
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 1: I used to always tease um my homeboy Andy Mineo's

559
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: who's half Italian, called him Alan irishman. You know, I'm

560
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: saying the Italian and right Irish, which just means this

561
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,760
Speaker 1: man just want to fight all the damn time. Anyway,

562
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: I used to tease him and I used to say,

563
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: you know, Italians are the black white people. Y'all got

564
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,439
Speaker 1: big old families, y'all get pay, y'all loud as hell.

565
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: You love music, you know what I'm saying. And yo,

566
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:28,320
Speaker 1: and you experience prejudice, right, And so I used to

567
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: just teach him about that. I'm also going on tour

568
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 1: this fall with the Honey as long as Delta don't

569
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 1: be no hater, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, probably

570
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 1: pop dot com. But that said, I am going to

571
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: acknowledge for Mr Cromo that there is a history of

572
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 1: prejudicial treatment towards Italian Americans. You are absolutely correct and Italians, yes,

573
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: I understand. In your culture, you guys are affectionate. I

574
00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 1: get it. In my culture, we allowed and my culture

575
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: were pretty mean to our children. My wife looked at

576
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 1: me a few times, it was like, why are you

577
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: mercilessly teasing your own child? And I'm like, have you

578
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: met my mother, my father? Have you met your mother

579
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 1: in law? Have you heard any stories about my mama,

580
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 1: and she's like that sweet lady that takes care of

581
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 1: our grandchildren, that woman that gave every single dime for

582
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 1: your ass to make sure she said, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

583
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. I'm like, yeah that woman. Nobody. Let me

584
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 1: tell you. Why. Let me tell you why black people

585
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 1: don't ever worry about getting roasted at school, Why we're

586
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 1: so good at it, Why it's so fun. Why are

587
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 1: we so quick with comebacks, Why we don't never cry,

588
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 1: Why we always got something to say back to you.

589
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 1: It's because our mama's, our aunties and our uncles roast us.

590
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 1: They'd be cooking us. They cook us mercilessly. Let me

591
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: tell you. And what you have to do is clap back.

592
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 1: There's no listen, you have no there's no option. You

593
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: have to clap back because if you cry, you're not

594
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: part of the family because you you just never get

595
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: to participate in nothing. So where we come from, we

596
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: just roast each other. We roast our kids. Now, maybe

597
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 1: there's some historical trauma in that truth. Maybe it's because

598
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, we uh, you know, we was paraded

599
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 1: as slaves. But a lot of times it's like it's

600
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,800
Speaker 1: because we say we're trying to prepare you for it

601
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 1: when you go outside of our houses, we love you.

602
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: This is our way of toughening you up. This is

603
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: our way of of showing our affection. We roast our children.

604
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 1: And I'm like, and I'm looking at my first gin

605
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: Mexican wife saying, wait a minute, did you just call

606
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 1: my nephew gortigo. My nephew's nickname is fat. You called

607
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,279

609
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: y'r body shame for fun. So like listen, we all

610
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 1: got our cultural things, you know. And and and in

611
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,760
Speaker 1: Mexico it's called a Kadokadeno is like it's a nickname

612
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 1: that you give like a kid that's usually pretty mean.

613
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,279
Speaker 1: It's usually the opposite of what they are a lot

614
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 1: of ways. So if you call it get Gordo, it's

615
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 1: because he's actually really skinny, you know what I'm saying, Gordius,

616
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 1: because she's actually really really skinny. Or if you call

Speaker 1: it or somebody that's kind of big, you call him

618
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 1: flock hole. It's like, you know, until they get older

619
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: than they actually than the name actually fits the size

620
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: that they are right, But when their babies you call

621
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,760
Speaker 1: them the opposite. That's just anyway. The point is everybody

622
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 1: got their things and you write, we can do better.

623
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: We should stop doing this to our children. But it's

624
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,880
Speaker 1: definitely a part of our culture. However, do we be

00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:33,240
Speaker 1: these are white women said no more to this, Andrew Quobo.

682

Speaker 1: White ladies say, I ain't know caring home me. I'm

683
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 1: about this action. That's crazy that white girl. That's like, listen,

684
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: you ain't finished. Stay in power on me now. Once

685
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 1: they started acknowledging the actual movements and power that black

686
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:50,320
Speaker 1: feminists have done, you know that sojourn the truth being like,

687
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,879
Speaker 1: like you start recognizing, you know what I'm saying, we're

688
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 1: really putting his work in here. You know these these

689
00:41:56,160 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 1: sisters out here. Then man, I'll tell you what who

690
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:06,359
Speaker 1: It's gonna be some receipts. There's gonna be some some payments. Boy,

691
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: you feel me. But the point I'm trying to make

692
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 1: is at Cuomo, you didn't mess with the wrong folks. Look,

693
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party taking some els these days, you know,

694
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:20,239
Speaker 1: especially with this um Gavin do some recall like we

695
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 1: like these some els. And I'm like the party was

696
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 1: like listen, man, look, we gotta we need to throw

697
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: these people a body, like somebody, somebody. We gotta sacrifice somebody. Cuomo,

698
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 1: you out look, you can mass and cross the rad

699
00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: black people. You can allow for a variant to spread

700
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 1: across your state. You can miss allocate funds, you can

701
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 1: steal money. Because we really ain't drawing the line in

702
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,759
Speaker 1: the sand. L g pt Q community drew a line

703
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: in the sand. It was like, Nah, that's too far,

704
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: homie and me too a movement. They was like, all right, yeah,

705
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:03,480
Speaker 1: I'm bringing to smoke and I respect it. I respected

706
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: so much. So what I'm saying is, let's bring that

707
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: energy to the entirety of our government, to all the

708
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 1: other issues too. You know what I'm saying. Let's learn

709
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 1: and be like listen, look at them foods and be

710
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,400

Speaker 1: You're gonna do it or hands gonna be thrown by voting,

713
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:37,560
Speaker 1: not not insurrections, because that's ridiculous. That's not what I'm saying.

714
