So I might take it a little serious 81 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: because I'm a competitor at heart.

But respectfully, you know, 100 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: that's just on the side of me being a personal guy. 101 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: But in the business, I'm also very I'm hyper focused. 102 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: I'm hyper alert though. You know, it's almost like when 103 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: you're driving, man, this is all your senses is high. 104 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: Or you hear a noise in your house.

I'm a street dude home I'm I ain't. 115 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: That's second on the list. I'm just seeing capitalizing on 116 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: every moment because right now I don't let count. You see, 117 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: I was watching did and shout out to the boss man? 118 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: Did it? You know? I was watching And we'll get 119 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 1: to his speech and all that later in the show, 120 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: but just as a quick reference, I was watching him 121 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: get his award on BT and it was interesting. He 122 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: said something. He said, Yo, whatever the commercials is hitting 123 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 1: me with the bill. I got it. See he had 124 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: a time then where he can do that. But if 125 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: you prematurely do that, they can set you in a 126 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,119 Speaker 1: financial situation of where you have to take from Peter 127 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: to pay Paul. But the genius Iner did in a 128 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: Kanye and a Jay and all of those dudes. They 129 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: made the moves when the moves needed to be made. 130 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: And that's the position. Not me and I'm playing chess. 131 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: They playing checkers. See, they don't respect the future. They 132 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: respect the present. So they feel as though because they 133 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: in the lead, that they won. I keep telling you, 134 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: leading the race, ain't winning the race. A lot of 135 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: you being carried to the destination. I'm crawling and climbing 136 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: to the destination. Therefore I get the information, and ain't 137 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: none better than information. The money is a byproduct or 138 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: the information. Trust and believe that within the sound of 139 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: my voice, money is a byproduct or the information. And 140 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: I always start a part talking about podcasting in the 141 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: game and business and just life and just just culture. Man. 142 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: I like to sometimes just give a little game out 143 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: about my head space in that time. Sometimes I'm happier 144 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: than others. Other times I'm, you know, sad or weary 145 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: or or I'm willing form Like I come with different 146 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: type outfits, you understand in regards to my thinking.

You put it all on the line 151 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: for them little pennies that they were paying this right here. Man, 152 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: If I do this right, I can go Nick Cannon. See, 153 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: because right now they think I'm dumb. So they think 154 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: I'm pigeonholing myself into this this type of thing. They 155 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: don't even know.

Right, We've seen academics do it. I want 170 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: y'all to see the difference respectfully. I know people ahead 171 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 1: of me probably think like I alone, trying to move fast. 172 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: We don't think you ready yet. Now I respect that. 173 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: You know they would know better than me, right, So 174 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: I don't get offended with some people who don't see 175 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: my talent the way I see it. Right. They ain't 176 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: in the gym with me, said, they don't know. I 177 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: don't even take notes when I'm talking. They don't know 178 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: I really come and just talk, right, So just imagine 179 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: if I know in ninety days I gotta get on stage, Bro, 180 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: do you know what I'm gonna come up with and 181 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: how I'm gonna come in and break this down? Like yo? 182 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: So I understand it because they haven't seen me flex 183 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: their muscle yet, right. They probably think this is a 184 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: well produced thing I'm doing over here when this is 185 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: really freestyle it you understand. But I respect the game 186 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: for what it is, so I don't get upset. I 187 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: want to speak to people out there, though, man, because again, 188 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: I feel like you're in a dog tunnel no matter 189 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: how successful you feel like or other people feel like 190 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: you're getting because you still understand that real success and 191 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: happiness is attached to untonomy. So you need the ability 192 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: to be able to do what you wanna do on 193 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: a daily basis for in my opinion, for you to 194 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: be happy as well as have something to live, foe, 195 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: look forward to and love. Right, I think that's a 196 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: part of being happy. And so for me as i'm 197 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: as I'm searching for happiness. Unfortunately for me why I 198 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 1: come from see because when you look at the people 199 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: who do the tree huggers and the people who understand 200 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: frequency and nature and things like that, they're able to 201 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: find their happiness that they have a cheat cold. I 202 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: want to tell people out there, man, that you got 203 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: to fall in love with the process. You gotta respect 204 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: the process. Some some some people want to subtract and 205 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: go around and cheat the process, and you only get 206 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 1: in what you're putting in. There's an old saying that says, 207 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: before you can enjoy the flower, where you must water 208 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: the thorn. But the importance in that it is process 209 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: because you understand that watering this thorn it's gonna get 210 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: me that beautiful flower. With that I've been looking for. 211 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: So what if I plant a thousand of these in 212 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: my yard and flower and watering the whole time. Now 213 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: I have a bouque of flowers and and but but again, 214 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: the process is so important in that because if you 215 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 1: fail the water those, then you're dealing with a thorn. 216 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: The thorn don't look like the flower, but the thorn 217 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: is the flower. Hold on, don't take that in. The 218 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: thorn don't look like the flower, but the thorn is 219 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: the flower. So again, you gotta fall in love with 220 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: the process because what it looked like ain't what it 221 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 1: end up ass. Sometimes you're going through a tunnel. The 222 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,359 Speaker 1: head on the other side of the tunnel is the destination, 223 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: and he get dark for that time you're in the tunnel. 224 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: Bull as soon as you get out, there's more lightning 225 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: your head before you enter the tunnel. So you just 226 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: gotta keep things in perspectives. And then don't kill your dreams. 227 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: When you keep waiting and I'm waiting, I'm waiting them. 228 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 1: It ain't right yet, I'm gonna get it right. You're 229 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: killing your dreams, wasting your time. You're burying your dreams. Loan, 230 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: don't bury his dreams. I believe in what I'm doing. 231 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: So that's why you see me every week, first, second, 232 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: third day of the week, dropping content, dropping videos, dropping this. 233 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: I believe in what I'm doing. I can't be affected 234 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: by nobody because I put a fence around my piece. 235 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: I put barriers around my peace. I put expectations around 236 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: my access to me. Yeah, everybody don't get access to 237 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: the penthouse. Yeah you might get to the building, but 238 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: you don't get the penhouse. I got to give you 239 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: access to the penhouse. And when I let you get 240 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: involved with my life from a standpoint, when I'm thinking 241 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: about you and what you feel, I want to feel, 242 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: or I want to help with, or I want to 243 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: engage in. That's a dangerous place for me to place 244 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: people let because I get very little reward and the 245 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: risk is high, and as a man, I have to 246 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: do risk assessment. If I'm not doing that, I fall 247 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: victim of tricks and I'm not interested in being tricked. 248 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: I'm not one of them kind of men. But you 249 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: don't never kill your dreams. You're staying by your dreams 250 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: as if you believe them in you and you water 251 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: those seas. And that's what I keep doing every week 252 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: water in the sea, say brocky thousands literally a comments 253 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: on every platform.

Smith and Skip Bayless are in 333 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: a situation where, for some reason, and I found a 334 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: lot of this interesting because again I view it different, 335 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: Skip Bayless is now legitimize the argument that I've heard 336 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 1: Stephen A. Smith mate for quite some time now. So 337 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 1: for those of you under where Stephen A. Smith and 338 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,159 Speaker 1: Skip Bayless have been going back and forth on podcast 339 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: about who started first take, who was the reason first 340 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 1: take continued, why Skip Bayliss had to leave first take 341 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: and go over with Shannon. It's just been a lot happening. 342 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: Before we get into what's being said, though, I want 343 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: to cite that I'm familiar with this conversation and not 344 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,360 Speaker 1: only familiar with the conversation, but familiar with the out 345 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: list that has been had on And for some reason, 346 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: I'm drawing a blank on why Skip only legitimized this 347 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 1: when the New York Times or Washington Post wrote about it, 348 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,479 Speaker 1: which they wrote about it because JJ Reddick spoke on it. 349 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: I need y'all to understand the ecosystem of media. I 350 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: think it's always something that's left unsaid, and people think that, oh, 351 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: they've just picked the best stories and promote them. It's 352 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: not how this works. There's a buddy system, there's a 353 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: Boys Club. There's a packet order on these kind of things. 354 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: I've heard Stephen A. Smith gone several platforms speak to Yo. 355 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: I started first take I was the reason it was hot. 356 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: Ain't nothing to debate about. I don't even know the 357 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: conversation I was demand moved on SKIP never said number 358 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: because it's crypt in the white media. I think that 359 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: now it becomes something that he wants to respond to, 360 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: and that's not making it racy, that's identifying the information. 361 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 1: What I do find funny, though, is that in this game, 362 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 1: we tend to work around black media until we don't 363 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: have a choice. Some of those stories just get too big, 364 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: and sometimes you would get an athlete crying on somebody 365 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,360 Speaker 1: couch that ESPN couldn't have gassed, so they can't do 366 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: nothing but coverage. But other times they try to work 367 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: around that and then invite those same people alone and 368 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 1: asking those questions in a different way to try to 369 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 1: get somewhat of that same answer. It's nasty in this game. 370 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: I want to just give y'all a little information on 371 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: that Steve Farm. We're committed to uplifting black futures in 372 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: collaboration with or oranizations like one hundred black Men and 373 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: National Urban League.

Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. 380 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: But Stephen A. Smith went on j jj Rading's podcast 381 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: and spoke to what his idea of First Take was, 382 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: how he came in and elevated the show and expanded 383 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: the show. When the reason why the show became to 384 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: be a franchise for ESPN. Let's listen to what Stephen 385 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: a Satan will come back with some gay. The origins 386 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: of First Take, The origins of this embraced the debate 387 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: notion where did that come from? Where was that sort 388 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 1: of driving force behind a part the first Take. What 389 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: happened was Skip Bayless was doing First Take, and they 390 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: were doing it based out of New York. It was 391 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: called Cold Pizza, and they had just a regular conventional 392 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: sports talk show and they had incorporated debates for a 393 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: segment here or there with Skip Bayless and Woodie Page Well. 394 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: Years later they moved. A couple of years later, they 395 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: moved to Bristol, Connecticut, to the headquarters of ESPN called 396 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: the First Take, changed the name from Copies of the 397 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: First Take. And then one of these days a guy 398 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: by the name of Jamie Harowitz was an executive here 399 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: and he took over First Take for a short period 400 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 1: of time. He did a focus group and the focus 401 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 1: group said, we don't want all that other stuff, we 402 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: want debate, and so he made he took First Take 403 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: from a conventional show and changed it into an all 404 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: debate format featuring Skip Baitless, and that's when it really 405 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: took off. Of course, part of the interruption was already 406 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: in play around the horn and stuff like that, but 407 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: as it pertained the First Take, that's where it's real 408 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 1: origin came from. Ski was doing it with the pot 409 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: pourri of individuals or for a few years, I had 410 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: been going from ESPN over a contract dispute. From January 411 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: or from May of two thousand and nine. The February 412 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: of two thousand and eleven, Skip Bayless was doing his 413 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: thing with First Take, having the two live stoods Jamal Hill, 414 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: Rob Parker and various other people debating against him, and 415 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: then the two thousand and twelve they weren't satisfied with 416 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: the numbers. They weren't satisfied with the ratings, the level 417 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: of revenue that was being generated. Skip Bayliss comes to 418 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: me in the park a lot on the campus of 419 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: ESPN and Bristol, Connecticut, and he says, I know you 420 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,640 Speaker 1: got your plans. You love the NBA, you love being 421 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: out on the road, you love being in the locker room. 422 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: But he said, but I need you, He said, I can't. 423 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: I've done all that I could to take this as 424 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: far as I could go. I need you to do 425 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: this for me, please, he said, I just need three years. 426 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: He said, I think we'll knock it out. The part 427 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: I thought about it, those were clearly my best options. 428 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: They weren't about to give me my own show or 429 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: anything like that. At the time, I said, I thought 430 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: about it for a couple of days, I said, all right, 431 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 1: I'll do it. One month later we were number one. 432 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: Did your relationship with Skip ever fracture? Was there? Was 433 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: there any of contentiousness? There never The only time anything 434 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:28,479 Speaker 1: came close to that was when I knew he was 435 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 1: leaving before he told me, and I was like, what 436 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 1: the hell is going on? You know? And so I 437 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: confront of him because I'm for better or worse. I'm 438 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: a straight up guy. You know. If I work with 439 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: you and all of a sudden I'm leaving, you ain't 440 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: gonna find out from somebody else. You're gonna hear from me. 441 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna come looking for you to tell you. I'm 442 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: gonna give you the news face to face. And I 443 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: was hearing it, and I'm like, what the hell is 444 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: going on? And then when he confessed to me what 445 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: had transpired between his negotiations with the company, I understood 446 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 1: why he couldn't tell me in the immediate moment. But 447 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: that's literally the only thing that we've ever had any 448 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 1: kind of issue about it, and that lasted for like 449 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: six hours. I love Stephen Nay, I love Stephen name 450 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: on TV, and I understand how he communicates. I think 451 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: he's one of the best communicators that we have out 452 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: there in regards to just share, putting words together and 453 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 1: matching that with your theatrics. Right, there's a very specific 454 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 1: combination that's needed to Resonnate, especially for that many hour 455 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 1: was consistently about different topics right with the same approach. 456 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: So says something to the formula that he has in place, 457 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: in the format that he's chosen to get his message out. 458 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: So we give kudos to him. I do think though, 459 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: in this instance, or when least one of him speak 460 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: about first take, the development of it, the inception of it. 461 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: As great as he is, I do think he's down 462 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 1: playing a team that was him in skill. Sometimes when 463 00:24:55,000 --> 00:25:00,439 Speaker 1: we get successful, we become blind to the pass the 464 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: president so better than like, let's say you come from 465 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 1: pot there, you come from nothing, and now you're rich. 466 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: It feels so good being now you don't even think 467 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 1: about who made you sandwiches when you ain't had none, 468 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 1: who got you in the door, who helped you. That's 469 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: why I'm always trying to stay cognizant and cautious about 470 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,719 Speaker 1: how treat the people who are helping me or lending 471 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: me even some sort of understanding. When I hear Stephen 472 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: they talk about first take, it almost comes off as 473 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: he forgets that they brought him on that show. Now, 474 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: being brought only someone doesn't mean that you're not the 475 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 1: best talent on the show, But it does mean that 476 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 1: someone had to see something in you to bring you 477 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: into an already established role that does not speak to 478 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: you being under them. That speaks to the opportunity that 479 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: they provided you. And I think that's something then to 480 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 1: be said about an opportunity being provided to people. And 481 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: when I him say that is because again he spoke 482 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: about this several times on black media and they swept 483 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 1: it under the rug. But when he speaks on it 484 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: on white media, for some reason, he gets legs. I 485 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 1: want to figure out to form me then why that's 486 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: the case. I want to assume, but without information, when 487 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: you assume, you make aside of yourself. We stay away 488 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: from that. But I wonder at what point did he 489 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 1: think that it was him and not them. See, sometimes 490 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: it is him, well I'm him, not them. Sometimes it's 491 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 1: him not them. But I wonder at what point did 492 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: that switch for Steve and Nate, for them to bring 493 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: him into an establishment or a situation, and there at 494 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 1: some point for it to go off in his head 495 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 1: that aught I'm the reason this is popping us in particular. 496 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: I think we gotta be careful man, even with me, 497 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: you know, I try to be careful because when I'm 498 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: when I'm helped, I don't even care if its own purpose. 499 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: I try to be careful and and cautious, and I 500 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 1: try to be considerate with the people that was close 501 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 1: to me when I beat the odds, because I don't 502 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: know why you was there, but you were around when 503 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: I beat the odds. See, when you your first median 504 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: is your hardest to get. I could never forget the 505 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: people to help you get that first met at least 506 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 1: as me coming from where I come from, understanding the 507 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: odds that I had to beat. I always try to 508 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: be cautious, careful, and considerate about the people that was 509 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 1: close to me when I beat the odds. So I 510 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: wonder what because him getting on that show as part 511 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: of the reason he beat the odds. He was already 512 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,959 Speaker 1: doing paper. I know he had a career, but he 513 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 1: said out of his own mouth, they wasn't about to 514 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 1: give me a show. But I have so much respect 515 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: for position because I know position is very important. To 516 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: always say strategist better than strength, which would lend me 517 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: understand and to know that position is important. See, I 518 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: know the maid got family too. Yeah, the motherfuck doing 519 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: the laundry got the family too. The mother watching the cards. 520 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: The pool guy, I'll eat people. Got family too, so 521 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: I'll eat people. Feel something like we can't go to 522 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 1: treating the dough man bad. He'll let him motherfucking And 523 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: it's still everything, Like I'm just saying, understanding, man, everything 524 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 1: is about position. But I watched these two guys not 525 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: only because they were so dynamic together. It's a situation 526 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: where you say, all right, these are two high level communicators. Right, 527 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: say what you will about skill. I would say that 528 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,919 Speaker 1: he's behind Stephen A in regards to ship communicating, but 529 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: he is a. He's a great communicators where it gets 530 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: his points off, he does a pretty good job. And 531 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: so when these two people go at it, I like, 532 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: again pay attention to the framing of things. Sometimes to 533 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,719 Speaker 1: frame caught more than the picture. Right, watch how they 534 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: frame in it. So again I always like to watch 535 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: it because I know it's high level jiu jitsu man 536 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: games moing on what Stephen they said, and that I 537 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,959 Speaker 1: don't really see as that being a problem. But I 538 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: think the way it was written up in the New 539 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: York Times, I believe it was, is that they may 540 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: have took not only Stephen saying it on here, but 541 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: from those other areas and just kind of summarize what 542 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: he was saying, like he made the show this dead 543 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: in the third So let'ten listen to what Skip said 544 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: in response to it will come back with some more 545 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: game on the Reddick podcast. Let me gather myself what 546 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: I cannot tell you how wrong that was. It was 547 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 1: so recklessly inaccurate. It was such shocking fabrication. And my 548 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: first thought when Ernestine sent this to me to peruse, 549 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: I thought, how could my brother stephen A turn on 550 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: me like that? Stephen A was suggesting that he saved 551 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:01,719 Speaker 1: and then made First Take? How can you save and 552 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: make a show that was already as big a billion 553 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: to one success story as ESPN had ever seen. The 554 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: ratings and the revenues were impossibly great. When stephen A 555 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 1: joined me in twenty twelve, with stephen A as my partner, 556 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: First Take would never touch the NFL Monday ratings that 557 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: it hit in twenty eleven. Pre stephen A and I 558 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: had taken First Take as far as I could. Seriously, 559 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: I was just getting started. The rocket had just launched 560 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:53,719 Speaker 1: the year before in twenty eleven, stephen A, how dare you? 561 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: But fortunately or unfortunately The New York Post wrote an 562 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: entire story about those remarks. Then it seemed like every 563 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: website from here in LA to New York picked up 564 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: or reacted to the Post story, And suddenly I was 565 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: in danger of this fiction becoming fact. If left unopposed 566 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: by me, this outrageously revisionist history just might have morphed 567 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: into bona fide history. And maybe it still will. Maybe 568 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: it still will become part of that public domain. And 569 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: in the future, I don't know, maybe every time someone 570 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: goes to write about the all time amazing success story, 571 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: the against all odds rise of First Take, they will 572 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: accept as gospel that Stephen A saved and made first Take. 573 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: But trust me, that is utter untrue. Let me say 574 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: this first of all, Let's just address that these people 575 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: that are coming from television in the podcast do a 576 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: very produced version of podcasting. If you're looking at this video, 577 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: you see Skip is reading. I'm not sure if he 578 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: understands how this comes off, or maybe he doesn't have 579 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: the time to, maybe someone else is putting together a 580 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: synopsis or timeline of events for him, or I don't know, 581 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: but when they come into podcasting with this very produced 582 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 1: version of a podcast, I need them to understand how 583 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: it comes off almost like they're bringing a football to 584 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 1: a basketball court, like they're bringing that set of skills 585 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: that they got from television. Although it could be mashed together, 586 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: you can kind of feel like you're doing podcasting. TV 587 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: is kind of the same thing, but it's a different muscle. 588 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: It's a very strict time frame on TV. Right, So 589 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: you got a ten minute segment. We got to split 590 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: this up between him and Shannon, so to be four 591 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: minutes for what I got to say, four minutes for 592 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: what you got to say, two minutes for her to 593 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: kind of introduce the topics. So I gotta get all 594 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: out in four minutes. That's why you will read. But 595 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: I think the truth is the only cure to somebody 596 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: that's capping. And so if you say capping and you're 597 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 1: dealing with the information and the truth, I don't say 598 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: you can't read, but I think it just comes off 599 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: a little stale. When you go to read something, it 600 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: just I don't know, it just gives me something. Let's 601 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: let's listen. And I think we immediately respected the fact 602 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: that we were too hard headed, sometimes hotheaded fighters from 603 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: opposite ends of the earth who knew what we were 604 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: talking about when it. Pay attention to him blowing and man, 605 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: it's man, this is hard man, Man, he's just lying. 606 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 1: Pay attention to it. Now, these are game's media plays. 607 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: These dudes are wizards on TV and ways. I do 608 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: not believe he would have allowed anyone else to CounterPunch, 609 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: especially another white guy. He would even let me in 610 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: the beginning, Right from the start, he would let me 611 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: puncture that enormous ego of his with an occasional bar. 612 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the biggest ego I have ever encountered, 613 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: which is coupled with the greatest gift of gab I 614 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: have ever encountered. The man could just talk, talk, talk 615 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: off the top of his head NonStop. Never seen anything 616 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: quite like it. So I had to learn to wait 617 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 1: until he got to his point of points, until he 618 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: finally arrived at where he was heading. As he talked 619 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 1: talk talked, and then I pounced, then I unleashed. And 620 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,959 Speaker 1: yet stephen A knew from the start he could try 621 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 1: my heart on live national television. Pay attention to the framing. 622 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: There's a couple of things he's saying right. First of all, 623 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 1: these are shots in media. Oh, he could talk talk, talk, 624 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,399 Speaker 1: enormous ego, right, and then a lot of that may 625 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: be true. I don't second that it's not true. What 626 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 1: I'm saying, though, is pay attention to the framing. He's 627 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: basically saying that, Yo, when we let you in, Stephen Ay, 628 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:31,840 Speaker 1: it put me at a disadvantage. I couldn't even barely 629 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: get anything out because you would talk talk, talk and 630 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: get to your point of points. That means you're wasting 631 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: time on television. You can't have a right I'm telling 632 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 1: you what he's doing. He's framing this. It's like, Yo, 633 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,399 Speaker 1: the show only work, bro because I took a back 634 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: seat and let you do that bullish you were doing, 635 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: waste a lot of time, finally get to your point, 636 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: and I come in right with a point. I ain't 637 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: had to do all that I come but I was 638 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: at a disadvantage because you got to do more and 639 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 1: talk more. This is basically what he's said. Now, you 640 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 1: guys be the judge, but I'm dealing with what he's 641 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: saying and paying attention to it. I knew my heart 642 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: was in the right place, and I think he knew 643 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 1: instinctively that I would always have his back. That was 644 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: and is the truth. At that point, I was a 645 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 1: far more experienced debater than stephen A was, because through 646 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,359 Speaker 1: the nineties, as you might or might not remember, I 647 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: appeared regularly on a show on ESPN on Sunday mornings 648 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: called The Sports Reporters with my late, great dear friend 649 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: Dick chap as the moderator. This show, as PTI with 650 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 1: more of an edge, he called his pilot show, which 651 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: he hoped to become v show to replace Jim Rome's 652 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 1: The Last Word, called the show Sports in Black and 653 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 1: White in Steve and I and excuse me, stephen A 654 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: and I readily agree to do a pilot for that show, 655 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: a half hour pilot. The moment we finished said pilot, 656 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: right here in this building in which I sit, John 657 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: Johnston and other producers came flying out of the control 658 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 1: room and said we could put this on the air tonight. 659 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 1: Stephen A and I agreed that we would move to 660 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: LA and do full time TV. And yet, shortly into 661 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: our stays on our respective shows, Mark Shapiro, who had 662 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: hired both of us, was deposed as the head of ESPN, 663 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 1: and I figured we were both a little vulnerable. Stephen 664 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: A eventually was given three months to save the ratings 665 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 1: of Quite frankly, he was given the option of firing 666 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 1: his showrunner, a man I came to know because he 667 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 1: ended up Cole Pizza for a while named Mike McQuaid, 668 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: big fan of stephen A's. But stephen A replaced Mike 669 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 1: McQuaid with what became a good friend of both of ours, 670 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: named Galen Gordon, and he had three good months to save, 671 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: quite frankly, and it did not work for whatever reason, 672 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 1: and that plug got pulled. In fact, every plug in 673 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: New York City got pulled by the new regime except 674 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:30,399 Speaker 1: for one. There was no more, quite frankly, no more 675 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: ESPN Classic, no more Stumped the Schwab. But Cold Pizza survived. 676 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: Why because our ratings were ticking up. Why was that, 677 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: in my humble estimation, because we had added the debate 678 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: element to Cold Pizza and it was starting to work. 679 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 1: Stephen A got sideways in another contractual snaffoo, contractual battle. 680 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 1: I don't know the details, but in a complete and 681 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:06,879 Speaker 1: an utter shock to me, stephen A Smith got let 682 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 1: go from ESPN. Yet over those two years, it felt 683 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: like stephen A and I talked about once a week, 684 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: and all I continued to hear from him was Hey, 685 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: I got to get back to the worldwide leader. And 686 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: I would say, I'm going to get you back, and 687 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: trust me, I wound up knocking on every door on 688 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: the top.

So all right, pay attention, Pay close attention 698 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: because right here he's basically saying that you came to 699 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: me big, but he's saying it in a nice way. 700 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 1: But I want to break it down for people that 701 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: may be simple or simple minded, or may need it simplified. 702 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: Not speaking to your mental capabilities, but understanding what we're 703 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:39,839 Speaker 1: looking at. These guys are wizards with this stuff, right Man. 704 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,280 Speaker 1: He called me and he said, man, I just gotta 705 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 1: get back to the worldwide leader, bro, And I told him, 706 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,399 Speaker 1: I got you a little homie, I'm gonna take care 707 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 1: of that. Talking long distance to my brother stephen A. 708 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,760 Speaker 1: While talking face to face to those that he called 709 00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: the big bosses at ESPN, I'm sorry, he's just more 710 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 1: troubled than he's worth. And I said, no, no, you 711 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 1: have to understand he's matured. This has humbled him at 712 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: least a little bit. He'll be great when he comes back. 713 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 1: He's just too talented. I continue to tell the big 714 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,359 Speaker 1: bosses he belongs here. You know it and I know it. 715 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 1: And finally, February first, twenty eleven, the Great Stephen A. 716 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,240 Speaker 1: Smith was hired back at ESPN, but he was forced 717 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: to repay some pretty serious dues. All right, so we're 718 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: gonna get off of that. I don't I kind of 719 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: don't appreciate the reading of it. It's just like and 720 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:46,360 Speaker 1: so did he. And on that day Steven said to 721 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 1: me to go over to the mothership in Bristol, Connecticut 722 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:55,920 Speaker 1: to see if we can come home. Bro, Let's do it. 723 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: And that's what makes Stephen they so hard, is because 724 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 1: he's the vibration flow of it. Up there as he's 725 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:07,200 Speaker 1: getting down with skipped his pot boom boom baping, kink, inflection, 726 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 1: elevation of the voice, back down, point made big word, 727 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: small word, big word, big word, big work like it 728 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 1: is just like right, and here you come reading, And 729 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: so Skip went on to get into the business of 730 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 1: it about how it was on ESPN two and they 731 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: were trying to get it moved to ESPN, but they 732 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: didn't do it because if they moved it to ESPN 733 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: and to kill another one of their shows, it's just 734 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: funny to see how networks thinking. For me, I paid 735 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: close attention because again they're taking you inside the corporations, 736 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: behind the scenes of one of the biggest shows to 737 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,720 Speaker 1: our culture. So for me, I can't never miss nothing 738 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 1: like that, the information that they're gonna give out without knowing. 739 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: You know, I got to pay attention to those things 740 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: because ain't no help coming. I'm clear on that, right, 741 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: come from out the street. Ain't no help coming. They 742 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: scared of this. I am the culture, and they may 743 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,800 Speaker 1: have been lying about how many push ups they was 744 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 1: doing and hire early they got up and here I 745 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: am t oneus and on my way right, So we 746 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,800 Speaker 1: get weary those that embrace me to all the truth. 747 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 1: They ain't got nothing to hide because I'm coming with 748 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 1: information and questions about things that if you've been lying, 749 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna be uncomfortable. But let's get back to skill. 750 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: On the departure of skill and heading over to Shannon, 751 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: shout out to Shannon a legend and broadcasting fust show 752 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 1: quick fasting in the hero It got up there and 753 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:25,400 Speaker 1: got right. That show you what we do in media 754 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,920 Speaker 1: with a chance given to us. One of those things 755 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 1: like what Shannon done. You just needed a chance. But 756 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 1: said that to the side, Skip has been framed by 757 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 1: Stephen Ay and a lot of the culture as just 758 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: a tennis partner, you know, so so basically just somebody 759 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 1: there just kind of like z it don't matter the name, 760 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,879 Speaker 1: just you just happened to be there, and Stephen they 761 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 1: carried the show. This is this is how he's been framed, 762 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: almost like subpart talent. For me, I think it's you 763 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: really can't gauge it, right with Stephen Ay being the 764 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 1: person that was right there in that show doing so good, 765 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,280 Speaker 1: you really can't gauge it when he spun off because 766 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 1: Shannon come in with the dunk with his hand in 767 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 1: the rim. Yes, Shannon come in putting major game down 768 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 1: over there, so he instantly elevated the show so fast 769 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 1: to make it like, oh, Skipp is right back on 770 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 1: a popping show. But again, now it begs the questions 771 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 1: Shannon doing the heavy lifting. And my opinion, Shannon is 772 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: killing it over there. Those segments, those his analogious, this 773 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: his way of doing it. He's killing it. I think 774 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 1: that Skipp is doing a good job, but it begs 775 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 1: the question Skip maybe the B mike on every show 776 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: that he goes on. If I'm being honest and honest 777 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,879 Speaker 1: to my audience and just really thinking about it, it's 778 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:54,280 Speaker 1: skipped the B mike when he's standing next to black people. 779 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: In regards to sports media, it's skipped the B mike 780 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: when he's standing next to or black real professional broadcaster, 781 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: like a Skip, like a Shannon, one of those guys, 782 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 1: the top tier guys, right because now, let's be honest, 783 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 1: Skip might run circles around some of them, mother, some 784 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: of our other black media brothers. I'm not sure, because 785 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 1: we got a certain vibe in swag with us. I 786 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: don't care who raised it. I know they like to 787 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 1: say skipped were raised by black people. Man, a dog 788 00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 1: can be raised by lions, it's still a dog. Yeah, 789 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 1: he can get food and behave like a lion if 790 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,760 Speaker 1: it won't to. But when it be in a position 791 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:34,919 Speaker 1: the lion get put in, it's gonna come up show 792 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: every time. So I don't care who raised it. Something 793 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 1: that's in us though. It's something that's in that black media, 794 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 1: that new media. It's it's something that's in it. And 795 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: so for me, when I look at that, I say, damn, 796 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,720 Speaker 1: it's skipped to be Mike, no matter who we's sitting 797 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: next to. In regards to black people that know the game. 798 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: On that side, it get rough onm I'm gonna look 799 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 1: at some more because I think, here again, I ain't 800 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:02,600 Speaker 1: talking about the athlete that ain't really savvy in this space. 801 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 1: I'm talking about some of them. Guys. You're gonna have 802 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,439 Speaker 1: to grab this really putting the game down. It's really 803 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,880 Speaker 1: coming in there talking point, spinning, you know how to 804 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 1: make that point. Like those that understand media understand what 805 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying. And it's only for the it's only for 806 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 1: luxury els. Because when you think about it, skip head 807 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 1: or some weight on the show.

They don't even 973 00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 1: like to comment on your pictures or call your phone 974 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 1: just in case you might add some fuss, some information. 975 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: You might ask them how to get out that bad 976 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,560 Speaker 1: circumstance you was in. I don't even want to lead 977 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 1: you to the water helping you drink, but I want to. 978 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 1: I want to address that, like, Yo, keep the ghetto 979 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 1: out of media. And when I say ghetto, like you 980 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:26,680 Speaker 1: want to fight the news that's analyzing if they disrespect 981 00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 1: for this one thing. I'm on the side of respecting 982 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:31,720 Speaker 1: the game because I deal with information on this side. 983 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 1: If I say, yo, Ray Jann was out there saying 984 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 1: and then this was horrible, and he want to fight 985 00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:41,359 Speaker 1: me about that, he got a problem. Right now, I'm 986 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,319 Speaker 1: gonna tell you something this is coming from and get 987 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: that's full little quipped for the bullish that come straight. 988 00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:49,240 Speaker 1: I'm fresh out of it. So I'm full little quipped 989 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 1: for the bulls, and I'm comfortable in the darkness. But 990 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 1: for the sake of the culture, we gotta bridge these 991 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: gaps home. We gotta be able to talk about us 992 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,399 Speaker 1: because Fox News gonna talk about it. Ain't nobody gonna 993 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 1: go up there where they file on. But man, I 994 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:07,840 Speaker 1: wish I would go on that show and disagree with 995 00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 1: that man. But it's said, we can't look at each 996 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 1: other and see pathways. Right when I look at Charlemagne 997 00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 1: I see a pathway, and I see did it? Jay? 998 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 1: You know when I see a Joe Button or Rishard 999 00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 1: b Marsha, all these guys to revote Big Bank, just 1000 00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 1: gotta look at each other and see pathways like damn, Bro, 1001 00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:32,040 Speaker 1: did it like that? Bro? That's the way we can 1002 00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:35,239 Speaker 1: do it. Bro. You don't have to look at each 1003 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 1: other and see competition. Now I'm talking about but we 1004 00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:40,960 Speaker 1: get it up. We've been trained to go. We've been 1005 00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 1: trained to be competitive because we're in a situation where 1006 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 1: the resources are limited and you developing a way when 1007 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:53,760 Speaker 1: ain't going your way? Yeah, you developed different. You develop 1008 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 1: different when you don't know whether or not you like 1009 00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:58,400 Speaker 1: you might gotta pack. You don't know what it's gonna 1010 00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 1: get off because Big Home in them come through ten 1011 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 1: dollars cheap on the grams, didn't you. I can't afford 1012 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 1: to go ten dollars cheap begin banned, But so much 1013 00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:11,719 Speaker 1: right developing a certain way, dog, and you won't never 1014 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:15,200 Speaker 1: understand it if you didn't come from it. But I 1015 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:19,440 Speaker 1: think we got to stop looking at each other like competition. 1016 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Chadwick Boseman. Very unfortunate situation. But let 1017 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 1: me update my audience exactly on what we're speaking about. 1018 00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:33,440 Speaker 1: Chadwick Boseman was the star and Black Panther was battling 1019 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 1: a rare form of cancer and passed away without a will. 1020 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:43,360 Speaker 1: Him passing away without a will cost him nine hundred 1021 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. A couple of things that I'm interested in 1022 00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 1: about this. Number one, Always have a will, especially if 1023 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 1: you got some money. Even if you don't got no money, 1024 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:53,720 Speaker 1: have a will or whatever you got, let it be. 1025 00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 1: Let your presence be felt on what they placed your belongings. Right. 1026 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 1: We had to have some understanding about what we want 1027 00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,840 Speaker 1: to happen in the case of our demise. I know 1028 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:07,480 Speaker 1: that it's a hard conversation because nobody want to talk 1029 00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 1: about it, right. You don't want to. It's almost like 1030 00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:14,400 Speaker 1: your quarterback in the plate to your death. But to 1031 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: ignore the facts to be a dumbas move. So you 1032 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 1: got to know death is on the table for everybody. 1033 00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:24,600 Speaker 1: You understand. We hope our bill isn't wrong early, but 1034 00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:26,680 Speaker 1: we never know right, So we got to try to 1035 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 1: get our fairs in order. His situation for me, A 1036 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:32,800 Speaker 1: couple of things I want to speak about. Number one, 1037 00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 1: he was worth three point eight million dollars his a stake. 1038 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,280 Speaker 1: That's what he was worth. That's all. He had three 1039 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 1: point eight million dollars. When I heard that, I said, 1040 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:46,720 Speaker 1: something ain't right. We gotta rewind the tape. Black Panther 1041 00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 1: was a billion dollar movie. What kind of splits we 1042 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 1: dealing with? What is the arrangements? Did he do that 1043 00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: free for y'all? Did y'all even allow him to do 1044 00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:57,880 Speaker 1: such a thing? Right? What's the splits? For him to 1045 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 1: be worth three million at the time? Is the mis 1046 00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:04,200 Speaker 1: coming off the highest selling Marvel movie at the time. 1047 00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,919 Speaker 1: Unfortunate for the splits to be so unfavorable, like three 1048 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: point eight million. Now, if somebody gonna explain to me, 1049 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 1: he hasn't been paid for that yet, explaining me to 1050 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 1: break down to that, right, I don't get that. No 1051 00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 1: upfront money, no residual, Like, what are we doing three 1052 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,000 Speaker 1: point eight million from a billion dollar movie? It's just 1053 00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: one movie. He had several other movies. So my first 1054 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:32,680 Speaker 1: thinking was for black actors. I wonder high black actors 1055 00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 1: being treated out there. I mean, I know, we hear 1056 00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:38,520 Speaker 1: about the Denzils, the Wheels. That's why again I had 1057 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,360 Speaker 1: to backtrack some of what Wheel did because he had 1058 00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 1: worked itself in a position to be the highest paid man. 1059 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,480 Speaker 1: But I know we broke down, So I give empathy 1060 00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 1: for that. I don't view that the same way everybody 1061 00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:51,120 Speaker 1: else views it because I know he was in a 1062 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 1: dog place when he made that decision. And I also 1063 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 1: look at his track record, say, I don't take from 1064 00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,480 Speaker 1: a man what he's earned when he makes a mistake. 1065 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:01,760 Speaker 1: I think that's some mistake, but we'll set that to 1066 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 1: the side. I thought about black actors and said, damn, 1067 01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,160 Speaker 1: how they don't How they don't make sure we compensate 1068 01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:10,360 Speaker 1: it in a way that's effective for our family. Right, 1069 01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:12,800 Speaker 1: you involved in a billion dollar moving and then you go, 1070 01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:16,520 Speaker 1: I would as the owners, as the people behind black panther, 1071 01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:18,680 Speaker 1: I would hate that that's out right now. I'm like, 1072 01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:20,960 Speaker 1: oh my god, they doesn't let out that he made 1073 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 1: but oh my god, is that gonna have some backlash? 1074 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,520 Speaker 1: Is that gonna have some It's people gonna look at 1075 01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 1: us funny. I mean, because I'm worried about something like that. 1076 01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 1: It makes me think, Yo, so some of these people 1077 01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:37,240 Speaker 1: are really only getting famous. Even on that level. Billions 1078 01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:39,520 Speaker 1: of dollars are being made and they're giving you. They 1079 01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 1: gotta be a point one percentage of something. That's a 1080 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 1: weird number. Three point eight. But let's move that to 1081 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 1: the side. Because he didn't have a wheel, the fees 1082 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 1: broke him down to two point three million. He lost 1083 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:55,040 Speaker 1: nine honey k because he didn't have a wheel. It 1084 01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:56,960 Speaker 1: ain't nothing. It ain't a piece of paper in the 1085 01:00:57,080 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 1: world worth nine honey k. It ain't a piece of 1086 01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:05,040 Speaker 1: paper in its world worth nine honey k. So you 1087 01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:07,760 Speaker 1: gotta you know, dude was worth three point at me. 1088 01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:11,120 Speaker 1: You might have just said, gollless fun the money there thing. 1089 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: I'm sick. I'm just whatever that money duck it. But 1090 01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:17,280 Speaker 1: you gotta think, yo, look who got a me you 1091 01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 1: know at the state just for fees? Man, that's sad. 1092 01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:25,400 Speaker 1: That could have went to your your your wife, or 1093 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 1: your or your mother. One thing we know too man 1094 01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,760 Speaker 1: in the ghetto or just in our coaches, the lack 1095 01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 1: of resources.

Let's talk about this. A 1304 01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:50,400 Speaker 1: guy showed up to his baby mother's home with a 1305 01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:56,000 Speaker 1: meal for his child, although she had other children. These 1306 01:13:56,000 --> 01:14:01,600 Speaker 1: circumstances caused a viral files storm in which the Internet 1307 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:07,200 Speaker 1: reacted and everybody became corresponding, reporting live from a baby 1308 01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:13,200 Speaker 1: mama's perspective. Right me, I indulge Enny, I don't evolve 1309 01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:17,080 Speaker 1: myself with the internet shenanigans in regards to the comments 1310 01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:19,320 Speaker 1: and things like that. I let somebody else run my 1311 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:22,040 Speaker 1: page in that way. But when it comes to me, 1312 01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:25,280 Speaker 1: I say, I talk about it on the podcast. I 1313 01:14:25,320 --> 01:14:28,160 Speaker 1: had a feeling that it was a moment. Anytime the 1314 01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:31,200 Speaker 1: cameras out of view, it fun, especially when the angles 1315 01:14:31,200 --> 01:14:34,240 Speaker 1: are so right. So again, but we move past that 1316 01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:36,439 Speaker 1: and we deal with what happened, because it is a 1317 01:14:36,479 --> 01:14:40,960 Speaker 1: conversation to be had, right, you gotta put yourself in 1318 01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:43,680 Speaker 1: a situation to understand things.

All Right, 1398 01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:03,360 Speaker 1: So you see that, and I want to provide a 1399 01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:06,960 Speaker 1: couple of different perspectives on this man. You know, I 1400 01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:09,519 Speaker 1: think life is about what you understand and how you 1401 01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:13,479 Speaker 1: navigate through it. Right. Position is important when you're dealing 1402 01:19:13,520 --> 01:19:15,439 Speaker 1: with these kind of things. I think if the guy 1403 01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:18,280 Speaker 1: involved in this had a bank roll, I don't think 1404 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:21,160 Speaker 1: that's a question, right. If you got the money, then 1405 01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:23,439 Speaker 1: if he pull up into Bentley, if he pull up 1406 01:19:23,479 --> 01:19:27,840 Speaker 1: into being as a cadillaca, a new call would drip on. 1407 01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:32,439 Speaker 1: And now that he can probably afford it, although being 1408 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 1: able to afford it and being held a counterboard two 1409 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:40,240 Speaker 1: different things. I need people to follow me as I 1410 01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:44,280 Speaker 1: navigate through the weeds with this. Right when the guy 1411 01:19:44,320 --> 01:19:47,120 Speaker 1: pulls up into Monte Carlo, that already says to me 1412 01:19:47,240 --> 01:19:51,200 Speaker 1: he ain't battening a thousand. Ye're now he badly making it. 1413 01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:54,240 Speaker 1: You understand he ain't one of them guys. So now 1414 01:19:54,439 --> 01:19:57,760 Speaker 1: I already manage my expectations when I see him, and 1415 01:19:57,880 --> 01:20:01,559 Speaker 1: sometimes we have a problem with managing that expectation. Show 1416 01:20:01,640 --> 01:20:04,680 Speaker 1: do you see, dude? You know what type vibration? This is? 1417 01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:07,800 Speaker 1: What type? What is this dude? Right respectfully to him, 1418 01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:10,160 Speaker 1: I know this is a character, but let's deal with 1419 01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:14,080 Speaker 1: the with it where laid at constant reminder, the black 1420 01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:17,320 Speaker 1: man gotta perform three times better than these other guys. 1421 01:20:18,120 --> 01:20:21,439 Speaker 1: Black man gotta be three hundred percent of what is 1422 01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:24,880 Speaker 1: to even be considered high level. And it's a shame. 1423 01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:27,120 Speaker 1: I gotta put two and three hours a game down 1424 01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:29,800 Speaker 1: a week for people to even say it's worth listening to. 1425 01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:32,800 Speaker 1: Why these other dudes give you fifty minutes where they 1426 01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:35,720 Speaker 1: gets talk thirty eight minutes of it. I understand the 1427 01:20:35,760 --> 01:20:37,680 Speaker 1: game is the game, so I put the work in. 1428 01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:41,080 Speaker 1: But look at this dude. He brained in full for 1429 01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:45,000 Speaker 1: this woman. I don't think he's in the best financial situation. Now, 1430 01:20:45,080 --> 01:20:47,040 Speaker 1: if you're balling, then you do that, I'm gonna look 1431 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:49,519 Speaker 1: at you. It's petty. You don't have to do anything 1432 01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:51,519 Speaker 1: but if you can afford to. I don't see the 1433 01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:55,080 Speaker 1: issue as that is your hus siblings, right. I also 1434 01:20:55,160 --> 01:20:57,560 Speaker 1: look at it and say, hold long, though, if I 1435 01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:00,800 Speaker 1: bring in some and the expectations is me to brain 1436 01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:03,720 Speaker 1: somewhow why we don't share them expectations what the other 1437 01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:06,280 Speaker 1: baby dadd is? See a lot of times they put 1438 01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 1: one more on one baby daddy because he did, and 1439 01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:11,760 Speaker 1: these other one because they that like for me. I 1440 01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:15,479 Speaker 1: don't understand that. If the expectations is the expectation, let 1441 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:19,160 Speaker 1: them be clear and concise. Yeah, let everybody get the 1442 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:23,599 Speaker 1: same expectation. You understand me? So um to be fair? 1443 01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:27,599 Speaker 1: You know you say black man can't win I brain 1444 01:21:27,720 --> 01:21:30,280 Speaker 1: food for my chip child.

Right These videos or these music videos 1493 01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:06,479 Speaker 1: with these dudes prancing around with the loaded weapons have led, 1494 01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:10,400 Speaker 1: have led to the depths or some of these children. Right. 1495 01:24:10,439 --> 01:24:14,200 Speaker 1: I remember a Facebook video going around that hurt my 1496 01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:17,920 Speaker 1: soul with scarred in my mind. I probably never get 1497 01:24:17,960 --> 01:24:20,760 Speaker 1: over seeing that. I don't watch like that. But the 1498 01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:24,520 Speaker 1: internet is a weird place and it's slippery. They accepted 1499 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:26,960 Speaker 1: when they looked like us, and they neglected when they 1500 01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:29,559 Speaker 1: looked like them. I'm aware and I'm alert. Let me 1501 01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:33,080 Speaker 1: say that again. I'm alert. I'm gonna move on. I 1502 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:37,439 Speaker 1: watched on the internet they had a little girl in 1503 01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:39,559 Speaker 1: the room with one of them guns, the rappers guy 1504 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:41,600 Speaker 1: with the drum on it, and I'm telling you, it 1505 01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:43,639 Speaker 1: hurt my heart. I wanted to go out and smack 1506 01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:46,920 Speaker 1: one of them, just the first I see. I want 1507 01:24:46,960 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 1: to smack him because I know what I'm dealing with. 1508 01:24:49,479 --> 01:24:52,920 Speaker 1: But I know love. It's without judgment. So I know 1509 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:55,479 Speaker 1: we lost, but to get lost is defining the way. 1510 01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:58,839 Speaker 1: So I don't look at us. I'm just embarrassed for us. 1511 01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:02,000 Speaker 1: I know we with it. We're weighed more smarter than that, right, 1512 01:25:02,400 --> 01:25:08,000 Speaker 1: But our conditions calls us to cripple. I understand it. 1513 01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:13,000 Speaker 1: Our conditions calls us to develop in a specific way, 1514 01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:14,880 Speaker 1: and I get that so I try to view it 1515 01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:16,920 Speaker 1: through the lens of a man that has a little 1516 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:19,800 Speaker 1: more information. But ain't no better than anyone coming through 1517 01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:22,519 Speaker 1: this tunnel. I know this tunnel leads us to the 1518 01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:25,360 Speaker 1: other side. I'm trying to bridge the gap every day. 1519 01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:28,880 Speaker 1: That's my mission. Bridge that bridge that. That's what I'm doing. 1520 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:31,599 Speaker 1: But when these children get caught in this weird place, 1521 01:25:31,840 --> 01:25:35,280 Speaker 1: I was so upset. The little girl playing on the phone, 1522 01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:38,040 Speaker 1: she didn't win live with the gun. Foon the gun 1523 01:25:38,120 --> 01:25:42,679 Speaker 1: go off, hit them, she falled, It hit the ground, boom, 1524 01:25:42,800 --> 01:25:46,639 Speaker 1: hit the other dude, he falled. It killed two kids. 1525 01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 1: People come in there because they hit the gunshots coming 1526 01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:51,719 Speaker 1: in and see them. They still don't live now they holly, 1527 01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:56,000 Speaker 1: My thing is, now, what was that? That's a video, 1528 01:25:56,200 --> 01:26:00,400 Speaker 1: that's a that's strictly from the music I mean, Barriss. 1529 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:02,400 Speaker 1: But we try to scare our way to the top. 1530 01:26:02,520 --> 01:26:05,639 Speaker 1: We try to Scott Nick right at what they're doing, 1531 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:07,960 Speaker 1: trying to scale each other to the top. I ain't 1532 01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:10,160 Speaker 1: like the mother Rabbits. If I tell you do a feature, 1533 01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:15,439 Speaker 1: all this shit ain't working. Getting indicted, oh now, holding 1534 01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:18,599 Speaker 1: me to keep them sticks, all of these getting indicted. 1535 01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:22,719 Speaker 1: But I'm thinking in a weird way. Some of these saying, 1536 01:26:22,760 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 1: man is worth the indictment. If I get up out this, 1537 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:29,120 Speaker 1: it's worth the indictment. I'm gonna go do teen and 1538 01:26:29,240 --> 01:26:35,840 Speaker 1: come back thin. And that's embarrassing because it's several ways 1539 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:39,559 Speaker 1: for us to get out this tunnel. It's several ways 1540 01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:41,479 Speaker 1: for us to navigate out. But when you got a 1541 01:26:41,600 --> 01:26:44,920 Speaker 1: child and he want to carry the gun and put 1542 01:26:44,960 --> 01:26:47,400 Speaker 1: it on his hip and hiding under this bed, and 1543 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:51,560 Speaker 1: you're dealing with the early stages of either wanna be 1544 01:26:52,040 --> 01:26:56,800 Speaker 1: or killer, both of them, guys are in trouble.

Chris is 1608 01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:36,679 Speaker 1: a legend, but USh is a different thing. Man. I'm 1609 01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:39,080 Speaker 1: talking about twenty of them things with the verses man 1610 01:30:39,120 --> 01:30:42,639 Speaker 1: when come Home Man, Usher and the R Kelly Usher 1611 01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:45,720 Speaker 1: and R Kelly is the is the move now I'm 1612 01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:48,160 Speaker 1: talking about. But it ain't gonna be no Usher Chris Brown. 1613 01:30:48,240 --> 01:30:50,560 Speaker 1: It just ain't gonna be to me. I think it 1614 01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:52,920 Speaker 1: maybe because I grew up in the area. Maybe the 1615 01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:55,479 Speaker 1: younger kids tell me if y'all think Chris Brown got 1616 01:30:55,479 --> 01:30:58,320 Speaker 1: them kind of things that Usher got. Usher had some 1617 01:30:58,720 --> 01:31:01,960 Speaker 1: that Jermaine had a tune. It was a certain sound, 1618 01:31:03,320 --> 01:31:05,679 Speaker 1: you know, and Chris got that sound. But the beats, 1619 01:31:05,680 --> 01:31:08,160 Speaker 1: it's something, man, it's something that I don't know. I 1620 01:31:08,200 --> 01:31:10,599 Speaker 1: can't put a thing on. It was just great music. 1621 01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:13,080 Speaker 1: And I don't think that we're doing it any justice 1622 01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:16,120 Speaker 1: when we say that. Um, him and Chris Brown would 1623 01:31:16,120 --> 01:31:18,439 Speaker 1: be a good matchup in my opinion. You know, I 1624 01:31:18,520 --> 01:31:21,639 Speaker 1: love Chris Brown. He's smoking that he in a weird 1625 01:31:21,720 --> 01:31:25,240 Speaker 1: place because he's smoking everybody else. But then us, she's 1626 01:31:25,280 --> 01:31:27,880 Speaker 1: just a little too high, you know what I'm saying. 1627 01:31:28,320 --> 01:31:30,320 Speaker 1: It's like that, it's a weird thing because it's like 1628 01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:34,640 Speaker 1: who else, Well, it ain't really nobody else, because everybody 1629 01:31:34,640 --> 01:31:38,280 Speaker 1: else Chris gonna make them look small. And so it 1630 01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:41,040 Speaker 1: ain't an. It ain't an It ain't disrespect or it 1631 01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:46,040 Speaker 1: ain't to diminish, right, it's just to identify and say 1632 01:31:46,080 --> 01:31:48,599 Speaker 1: that's how great us she is behoming you just as 1633 01:31:48,680 --> 01:31:52,599 Speaker 1: great and still rolling. But but that's just a little 1634 01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:56,479 Speaker 1: too high. You gotta give us more than them slowed 1635 01:31:56,560 --> 01:31:59,280 Speaker 1: down joints like that, some of them joints, some of 1636 01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:01,280 Speaker 1: them slowed down. And I know you got a lot 1637 01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:03,960 Speaker 1: of them fans, don't smother me. I know we got 1638 01:32:03,960 --> 01:32:06,719 Speaker 1: a lot of them, but some of them seven the clocks, 1639 01:32:06,720 --> 01:32:10,280 Speaker 1: and some of them them little John them lovers and friends, 1640 01:32:10,360 --> 01:32:14,479 Speaker 1: or some of them what is that seduction or like 1641 01:32:14,960 --> 01:32:17,200 Speaker 1: dude got some of them joints back in the day, 1642 01:32:17,320 --> 01:32:21,880 Speaker 1: confessions all that, Like, come on, son, you know what 1643 01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:28,760 Speaker 1: I'm noticing. I'm noticing that first. I'm like, yo, lone, 1644 01:32:28,760 --> 01:32:31,320 Speaker 1: there's so much going on. Why we only why we 1645 01:32:31,400 --> 01:32:34,479 Speaker 1: be having these conversations where we arguing and going back 1646 01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:38,160 Speaker 1: and forth about these frivolous topics, and so I wonder 1647 01:32:38,200 --> 01:32:42,320 Speaker 1: why aren't we having those real conversations. Then I have 1648 01:32:42,400 --> 01:32:47,000 Speaker 1: to think noe were having those real conversations. The problem 1649 01:32:47,040 --> 01:32:49,519 Speaker 1: ain't we ain't having them. The problem is we're more 1650 01:32:49,560 --> 01:32:55,439 Speaker 1: loud about the bullsh Right, the bullsh get more traction, 1651 01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:58,880 Speaker 1: get more attention. And I'm not sure if it's I 1652 01:32:58,880 --> 01:33:01,840 Speaker 1: don't think it's because we're uneducated. And that's the only 1653 01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:04,680 Speaker 1: vibration that we can identify with. What our think is 1654 01:33:04,720 --> 01:33:08,479 Speaker 1: happening is is that we just love to indulge in that. 1655 01:33:09,439 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 1: Someone has to be innovative man to be able to 1656 01:33:12,520 --> 01:33:14,519 Speaker 1: put the medicine in the candy in a way to 1657 01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:18,240 Speaker 1: resonate because it's clear that the page to post something. Well, 1658 01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:22,400 Speaker 1: Luckily for me, I deal with both topics, right, So 1659 01:33:22,439 --> 01:33:27,200 Speaker 1: I give you the highest level of understanding on certain things. Right, 1660 01:33:27,320 --> 01:33:30,120 Speaker 1: game is what I call it. It's really the highest 1661 01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:33,679 Speaker 1: level of understanding. I give you that on one side, 1662 01:33:33,680 --> 01:33:37,920 Speaker 1: and then on the other side, ideal with maybe some 1663 01:33:38,000 --> 01:33:40,679 Speaker 1: of the bullish, some of the like now we're dealing 1664 01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:43,960 Speaker 1: with more submissive women and its arguments on both sides. Dudes, 1665 01:33:44,040 --> 01:33:47,960 Speaker 1: Just won't you nice? You know what I'm saying. Submissive 1666 01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:51,680 Speaker 1: maybe a word that by definition, but I understanding this, yo, 1667 01:33:51,880 --> 01:34:00,360 Speaker 1: just be nice to an provide peace peace offering, a 1668 01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:03,960 Speaker 1: peace offering what we are arguing? What is that? Right? 1669 01:34:04,240 --> 01:34:06,479 Speaker 1: And so I go to thinking, like, yo, we louder 1670 01:34:06,479 --> 01:34:09,160 Speaker 1: about that because killer Mike is gonna revoke killing it 1671 01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:13,639 Speaker 1: with the certain conversations. You got one nine nineteen keys 1672 01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:17,719 Speaker 1: over the killing it with certain conversations. Right, of course, 1673 01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:21,360 Speaker 1: I provide you certain conversations. You got so many different 1674 01:34:21,680 --> 01:34:26,160 Speaker 1: waves of things happening. But in all those things get 1675 01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:29,799 Speaker 1: the traction that it deserves to sustain itself in the market. 1676 01:34:29,880 --> 01:34:32,479 Speaker 1: Let's be clear with that. But what I'm saying is 1677 01:34:32,520 --> 01:34:36,880 Speaker 1: I see that even in my own observation right, because 1678 01:34:36,880 --> 01:34:40,040 Speaker 1: I deal in both worlds. I see what y'all louder 1679 01:34:40,080 --> 01:34:43,519 Speaker 1: about this than y'all about that, And then my approach 1680 01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:47,600 Speaker 1: to that was that should resonate way further than me 1681 01:34:47,760 --> 01:34:55,640 Speaker 1: speaking about arguing about what's a submissive woman. I understand 1682 01:34:55,680 --> 01:34:58,200 Speaker 1: that we need some understanding on that, So let me 1683 01:34:58,240 --> 01:35:00,840 Speaker 1: be clear on that and not know the fact that 1684 01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:03,840 Speaker 1: we do need understanding and me I need understanding, and 1685 01:35:03,960 --> 01:35:07,760 Speaker 1: so never take me talking on this mic is me 1686 01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:10,639 Speaker 1: thinking I know everything. I'm trying to talk my way 1687 01:35:10,680 --> 01:35:14,320 Speaker 1: through some of these things, right, and hopefully talk somebody 1688 01:35:14,320 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 1: else through some of these things. So we're dealing with 1689 01:35:16,520 --> 01:35:20,400 Speaker 1: ideas and information over here. We're not sure of anything, 1690 01:35:20,439 --> 01:35:23,520 Speaker 1: and we don't think we know everything. But it's important 1691 01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:28,280 Speaker 1: for us to Number one, it's important for us to dream. 1692 01:35:28,360 --> 01:35:30,720 Speaker 1: It's important for us to dream. It's important for us 1693 01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:34,559 Speaker 1: to believe, right. And also man the devil or try 1694 01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:37,599 Speaker 1: to trick you out at your bag and put you 1695 01:35:37,680 --> 01:35:40,320 Speaker 1: in his you know. And just like I was speaking 1696 01:35:40,360 --> 01:35:44,960 Speaker 1: about us not understanding that none of you guys are 1697 01:35:45,040 --> 01:35:51,040 Speaker 1: street ninety six ninety seven percent of you guys are 1698 01:35:51,120 --> 01:35:55,280 Speaker 1: good guys, So y'all don't want to handle things in 1699 01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:58,439 Speaker 1: a way that the gang banging time to list So 1700 01:35:58,520 --> 01:36:01,320 Speaker 1: let's take that off the table. And if that's an 1701 01:36:01,360 --> 01:36:04,120 Speaker 1: issue that the community can learn from or the culture 1702 01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:07,559 Speaker 1: can benefit from, that's not something that you really feel 1703 01:36:07,640 --> 01:36:10,200 Speaker 1: has crossed the line. Let's have the conversations like the 1704 01:36:10,200 --> 01:36:14,400 Speaker 1: Whites do. Let's put it on Front Street. Somebody put 1705 01:36:14,439 --> 01:36:17,560 Speaker 1: it on. I'm with listen and you're talking to somebody. 1706 01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:21,000 Speaker 1: I want you to keep I said this earlier. I 1707 01:36:21,080 --> 01:36:25,840 Speaker 1: want you keep the ghetto out of the media. I'm 1708 01:36:25,840 --> 01:36:28,280 Speaker 1: gonna see you and I'm gonna beat you up unless 1709 01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:31,920 Speaker 1: it's disrespecting man. If he disrespecting, you don't tell a 1710 01:36:31,960 --> 01:36:34,679 Speaker 1: man how to react to disrespect. And I won't overstep 1711 01:36:34,760 --> 01:36:37,519 Speaker 1: my boundaries and do so. But when we deal with 1712 01:36:37,560 --> 01:36:40,040 Speaker 1: the business side of this, if somebody is making two 1713 01:36:40,120 --> 01:36:44,120 Speaker 1: hundred million, if you're a forty thirty, teen, fifteen, whatever, 1714 01:36:44,200 --> 01:36:46,680 Speaker 1: if you just a guy that's in this business of 1715 01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:52,800 Speaker 1: entertainment and media, look at the Whites for manute seeing 1716 01:36:52,840 --> 01:36:55,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you who the I'm called on.

What that does is it introduces you to 1770 01:39:57,360 --> 01:40:01,920 Speaker 1: mainstream media and an audience that or may not transition 1771 01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:04,880 Speaker 1: and translate to what it is you do after you 1772 01:40:05,000 --> 01:40:08,160 Speaker 1: leave the field or the basketball court. So if you 1773 01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:10,960 Speaker 1: deal with the rapper, the rapper has a different level 1774 01:40:10,960 --> 01:40:15,679 Speaker 1: of publicity and media coverage that does not translate after 1775 01:40:15,760 --> 01:40:19,559 Speaker 1: he puts the mic down, because they matter of fact, 1776 01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:22,400 Speaker 1: if anything, it dies when he puts the mic down 1777 01:40:22,479 --> 01:40:25,639 Speaker 1: because the way that you're promoted and the media paints 1778 01:40:25,680 --> 01:40:27,599 Speaker 1: you as a rapper. And that's why it's up there. 1779 01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:31,439 Speaker 1: Podcasts and you know, these other shows are important because 1780 01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:34,400 Speaker 1: able to get another side of the out there, the 1781 01:40:34,439 --> 01:40:37,040 Speaker 1: other side of the rappers that show what it is 1782 01:40:37,080 --> 01:40:40,920 Speaker 1: that they bring to the universe, the vibrations of these guys, right, 1783 01:40:41,280 --> 01:40:43,800 Speaker 1: and so what happens with the rapper. They tend to 1784 01:40:43,800 --> 01:40:47,720 Speaker 1: promote you in this gangster immage type way. Outside of 1785 01:40:47,800 --> 01:40:51,320 Speaker 1: people like Drake Travis Scott. I like what the baby is. 1786 01:40:51,400 --> 01:40:54,080 Speaker 1: He's kind of treading the line, but he gotta be 1787 01:40:54,120 --> 01:40:58,160 Speaker 1: careful because I don't know what that turns into. Right, 1788 01:40:58,400 --> 01:41:01,479 Speaker 1: He's kind of on that ludicrous line, but he can 1789 01:41:01,600 --> 01:41:03,880 Speaker 1: he can also gear that street, but set that to 1790 01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:07,200 Speaker 1: the side. A lot of times outside of some kind 1791 01:41:07,200 --> 01:41:11,240 Speaker 1: of mainstream act, and even with mainstream acts, they tend 1792 01:41:11,280 --> 01:41:15,320 Speaker 1: to shed gangster light on you, gangster image. Every time 1793 01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:17,840 Speaker 1: they talk about you. They talk about your come up, 1794 01:41:19,439 --> 01:41:22,559 Speaker 1: you know, coming from the mean streets of Philadelphia, coming 1795 01:41:22,600 --> 01:41:25,800 Speaker 1: from the mean streets of Tennessee, you know, overcoming the 1796 01:41:25,840 --> 01:41:29,719 Speaker 1: crack era, and yo, now let's start telling success story. 1797 01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:32,840 Speaker 1: Let's start from now. You know, once that's out there, 1798 01:41:33,479 --> 01:41:36,080 Speaker 1: you know, start painting me to these people. That's demand 1799 01:41:36,200 --> 01:41:40,599 Speaker 1: that indorsed in rap. Transition got him two or three business, 1800 01:41:40,760 --> 01:41:44,640 Speaker 1: got ten million in property for million in trucks, eighteen 1801 01:41:44,760 --> 01:41:49,040 Speaker 1: million in commercial real estate. You know, start talking about 1802 01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:52,320 Speaker 1: those things, and now I'm accepted a different way. I'm 1803 01:41:52,439 --> 01:41:55,080 Speaker 1: viewed a different way. And sometimes the coverage that you 1804 01:41:55,080 --> 01:41:58,479 Speaker 1: get as a rapper is not that, if anything is 1805 01:41:58,479 --> 01:42:01,320 Speaker 1: the contrary. And so when you are not, they're a 1806 01:42:01,400 --> 01:42:04,080 Speaker 1: deal with you when you're hot, because every brand want 1807 01:42:04,120 --> 01:42:06,880 Speaker 1: to strike when the iron's hot. I keep telling y'all, 1808 01:42:06,920 --> 01:42:09,200 Speaker 1: you dealing with people that's in the culture but not 1809 01:42:09,320 --> 01:42:11,599 Speaker 1: of the culture. So they deal with numbers and they 1810 01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:14,120 Speaker 1: don't respect the future. So they're a deal with a 1811 01:42:14,360 --> 01:42:17,120 Speaker 1: twenty hot because they don't have a choice. You pay 1812 01:42:17,160 --> 01:42:19,240 Speaker 1: with your eyeballs, so people are there to see you, 1813 01:42:19,320 --> 01:42:21,000 Speaker 1: and then they get to see that brand. It's just 1814 01:42:21,080 --> 01:42:24,040 Speaker 1: to even swap. Ain't no swander. But when that fire 1815 01:42:24,160 --> 01:42:27,679 Speaker 1: goes out, they won't stand by you or stand next 1816 01:42:27,720 --> 01:42:31,080 Speaker 1: to you or uplift you because there's no more equality 1817 01:42:31,160 --> 01:42:34,839 Speaker 1: and doing so. And that's why you gotta transition yourself. 1818 01:42:34,880 --> 01:42:37,439 Speaker 1: You saw with Jay, you saw with Ya, You saw 1819 01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:41,360 Speaker 1: did it? You saw? No? Oh, we got to we 1820 01:42:41,439 --> 01:42:43,360 Speaker 1: got the head, we got to we got to spin 1821 01:42:43,479 --> 01:42:45,840 Speaker 1: off and or your start to be like what happened 1822 01:42:45,880 --> 01:42:48,080 Speaker 1: to Jesus the other day where he just on stage 1823 01:42:48,120 --> 01:42:50,640 Speaker 1: they throw on warns when he was twenty one, they 1824 01:42:50,760 --> 01:42:54,040 Speaker 1: might not admit nothing. Now that's disrespectful. I don't to 1825 01:42:54,200 --> 01:42:56,880 Speaker 1: him that was disrespectful. She threw wars on it. But 1826 01:42:57,000 --> 01:42:59,880 Speaker 1: as a forty year old man up there singing that song, 1827 01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:03,840 Speaker 1: they on that vibe the young they yeah, yeah, you 1828 01:43:03,960 --> 01:43:06,559 Speaker 1: foult in them. It's the one thing I don't like 1829 01:43:06,640 --> 01:43:08,679 Speaker 1: about Rep. Man Or I ain't gonna say I don't 1830 01:43:08,680 --> 01:43:12,200 Speaker 1: like because the money's there, so it provides you a 1831 01:43:12,320 --> 01:43:14,559 Speaker 1: situation to still be able to feed your family, and 1832 01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:17,639 Speaker 1: I gotta applaud that. But I view that away man 1833 01:43:17,680 --> 01:43:21,920 Speaker 1: when I see I'm gonna tell you what specifically irritates me. 1834 01:43:23,479 --> 01:43:27,000 Speaker 1: I think it's slick Rick. And I love slick Rick 1835 01:43:27,320 --> 01:43:30,680 Speaker 1: what he's brought to the game. I understand his contribution. 1836 01:43:30,960 --> 01:43:34,080 Speaker 1: I understand what he's done, what he's added to the algorithm, 1837 01:43:34,240 --> 01:43:36,920 Speaker 1: how important he was to the ingredients of what it 1838 01:43:37,040 --> 01:43:39,519 Speaker 1: is we do. But I hate to see him show 1839 01:43:39,680 --> 01:43:43,280 Speaker 1: up with all them chains on and show of his eye. 1840 01:43:44,640 --> 01:43:47,839 Speaker 1: It may it makes me feel bad for him because 1841 01:43:47,840 --> 01:43:50,759 Speaker 1: I said, damn, you can't teach your old dog new tricks. 1842 01:43:52,400 --> 01:43:56,720 Speaker 1: They still got us pulling out the legendary outfits.

And that's why I'm loud about what 1856 01:44:38,080 --> 01:44:40,360 Speaker 1: it is I'm doing. Like even when you've seen Jay 1857 01:44:40,479 --> 01:44:44,320 Speaker 1: Jay were rapping about one hundred one hundred million, three million, 1858 01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:49,400 Speaker 1: four in just fine, yeah, forty million, put yeah, let's 1859 01:44:49,400 --> 01:44:54,439 Speaker 1: put this in perspective.

And boy, that risk look 1925 01:48:25,960 --> 01:48:28,479 Speaker 1: different when that label ain't got nothing in on it. 1926 01:48:29,280 --> 01:48:31,120 Speaker 1: When they come back and say you got to spend 1927 01:48:31,160 --> 01:48:34,720 Speaker 1: six millions to get this launched in the right way. Man, 1928 01:48:34,760 --> 01:48:37,920 Speaker 1: your fans gonna push back say that, and the label 1929 01:48:37,960 --> 01:48:40,080 Speaker 1: would have put in seventy percent of that. I could 1930 01:48:40,080 --> 01:48:42,679 Speaker 1: have gave two three million, you know what I'm saying, 1931 01:48:42,760 --> 01:48:47,400 Speaker 1: Just understanding some certain things like that. Let's talk about 1932 01:48:47,479 --> 01:48:51,800 Speaker 1: submissive women. There's been a clip going around man where 1933 01:48:53,400 --> 01:48:55,720 Speaker 1: as a young lady speaking about what it means to 1934 01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:59,400 Speaker 1: be submissive to a man of viewpoints on it. You know, 1935 01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:05,160 Speaker 1: love is very slippery place. Everybody enjoys it. Right, It's 1936 01:49:05,160 --> 01:49:08,439 Speaker 1: a weird agreement we make with another individual that we 1937 01:49:09,400 --> 01:49:12,599 Speaker 1: have the same feelings for each other and we are 1938 01:49:12,680 --> 01:49:16,400 Speaker 1: committed to keeping those feelings intact in that place and 1939 01:49:16,479 --> 01:49:21,200 Speaker 1: forevermore Right, it's crazy because when you look at love, 1940 01:49:21,280 --> 01:49:24,599 Speaker 1: you can love several people and have had several people 1941 01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:27,559 Speaker 1: who you were in love with that would make you 1942 01:49:27,720 --> 01:49:30,559 Speaker 1: question whether or not that forever more is there. But 1943 01:49:31,520 --> 01:49:33,800 Speaker 1: then you can argue that some people can say that 1944 01:49:33,880 --> 01:49:37,600 Speaker 1: you can love all those people simultaneously. So those conversations 1945 01:49:37,600 --> 01:49:42,720 Speaker 1: are even conversations that you can die deep into. But 1946 01:49:42,960 --> 01:49:46,040 Speaker 1: the arrangement that we make with people that we meet, 1947 01:49:46,120 --> 01:49:49,679 Speaker 1: that love is involved. And we now have reached some 1948 01:49:49,760 --> 01:49:53,479 Speaker 1: sort of climax in regards to feelings. The emotions we 1949 01:49:53,560 --> 01:49:59,920 Speaker 1: have towards each other and for each other have exceeded 1950 01:50:00,600 --> 01:50:05,960 Speaker 1: those of the feelings that we have for other people. Right, 1951 01:50:06,040 --> 01:50:08,599 Speaker 1: So now I'll put you in this other little space, right. 1952 01:50:08,720 --> 01:50:11,000 Speaker 1: You know, I like them, but I love you, so 1953 01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:13,479 Speaker 1: they're here, and then I put you up in this 1954 01:50:13,520 --> 01:50:17,320 Speaker 1: little cubbyhole where the people that I love see at. 1955 01:50:18,840 --> 01:50:24,200 Speaker 1: And in men's communication to women, I think we are 1956 01:50:24,240 --> 01:50:28,840 Speaker 1: not able to express ourselves in a way that's acceptable, 1957 01:50:29,479 --> 01:50:31,920 Speaker 1: and not a lot of times it's self inflicted. It 1958 01:50:31,920 --> 01:50:34,200 Speaker 1: ain't because of the woman that's putting that amount of 1959 01:50:34,240 --> 01:50:37,800 Speaker 1: pressure on it. It's just the vulnerability that we have 1960 01:50:37,960 --> 01:50:43,360 Speaker 1: to accept for us to speak in a way we 1961 01:50:43,479 --> 01:50:47,560 Speaker 1: just don't see ourselves accepting that because to be openness 1962 01:50:47,600 --> 01:50:51,840 Speaker 1: to be hurt, right, And so sometimes you rather keep 1963 01:50:51,880 --> 01:50:58,880 Speaker 1: it closed off and stay safe and sometimes women sometimes 1964 01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:05,880 Speaker 1: we may not give women the explanation that they need 1965 01:51:05,920 --> 01:51:08,479 Speaker 1: to understand what it is that we need, right we 1966 01:51:08,600 --> 01:51:11,000 Speaker 1: get We always say that we have a problem with 1967 01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:16,640 Speaker 1: communicating our expectations. And so with that in mind, we 1968 01:51:16,720 --> 01:51:19,040 Speaker 1: got a lot of people trying to interpret what it 1969 01:51:19,200 --> 01:51:22,559 Speaker 1: is that we're saying and how they feel, like what 1970 01:51:22,640 --> 01:51:25,800 Speaker 1: we mean, you know, and what it is they mean. 1971 01:51:26,000 --> 01:51:28,839 Speaker 1: And women are telling me and how men are supposed 1972 01:51:28,880 --> 01:51:31,360 Speaker 1: to feel, and men are telling women how women are 1973 01:51:31,400 --> 01:51:34,519 Speaker 1: supposed to feel, and women are telling me and how 1974 01:51:34,600 --> 01:51:38,840 Speaker 1: men should act me and are telling women how women 1975 01:51:38,880 --> 01:51:45,920 Speaker 1: should act, and so it gets slippery. And so there 1976 01:51:45,960 --> 01:51:48,760 Speaker 1: was a clip that went around about a young lady 1977 01:51:48,840 --> 01:51:52,280 Speaker 1: talking about being submissive. Let's listen to that. What does 1978 01:51:52,320 --> 01:51:56,920 Speaker 1: a submissive woman do for her man everything? What does 1979 01:51:56,960 --> 01:52:01,280 Speaker 1: that mean? You know, like packing us bag, unpacking its bag, 1980 01:52:02,680 --> 01:52:04,680 Speaker 1: just making sure all the things that he wants, and 1981 01:52:04,720 --> 01:52:07,000 Speaker 1: like I pretty much read his mind. So it's like 1982 01:52:07,000 --> 01:52:10,240 Speaker 1: if I know you and I study you, like I 1983 01:52:10,320 --> 01:52:11,960 Speaker 1: know how you are in the morning, I know how 1984 01:52:12,000 --> 01:52:13,720 Speaker 1: you are about midday, I know when you're in this 1985 01:52:13,760 --> 01:52:16,200 Speaker 1: mood what you mean, Like before you can ever ask 1986 01:52:16,240 --> 01:52:20,320 Speaker 1: me for something. I'm already on it. I mean, he's spoiled. 1987 01:52:20,680 --> 01:52:22,200 Speaker 1: And you know, when I talk to my girlfriends about 1988 01:52:22,200 --> 01:52:23,479 Speaker 1: their I was like, oh, are you guys doing it? 1989 01:52:23,520 --> 01:52:26,639 Speaker 1: I'm just like, girl, he's rotten. I'm like, he's spoiled, rotten, 1990 01:52:26,840 --> 01:52:29,400 Speaker 1: Like he's rotten, but I love that, like I want 1991 01:52:29,479 --> 01:52:31,120 Speaker 1: him to be there. I think my biggest flex is 1992 01:52:31,120 --> 01:52:32,960 Speaker 1: how I treat my man. And I've been known to 1993 01:52:33,080 --> 01:52:36,719 Speaker 1: love people back to health and sometimes it's very draining, 1994 01:52:37,200 --> 01:52:40,320 Speaker 1: but my love is my superpower. And I used to 1995 01:52:40,360 --> 01:52:42,640 Speaker 1: hate that about myself, but now it's like I'm just 1996 01:52:42,680 --> 01:52:44,479 Speaker 1: embracing it, like that's who I am. Like, if I 1997 01:52:44,560 --> 01:52:48,439 Speaker 1: love you, I can heal your joy. It is my joy. 1998 01:52:48,880 --> 01:52:50,920 Speaker 1: You know. I love to see him eating the meal 1999 01:52:50,960 --> 01:52:54,160 Speaker 1: that I could. I love seeing him sleep easy every 2000 01:52:54,240 --> 01:52:57,439 Speaker 1: night like clockwork. I scratched this man's back to sleep. 2001 01:52:57,960 --> 01:53:00,599 Speaker 1: And I know when he's asleep because I can tell 2002 01:53:00,680 --> 01:53:04,040 Speaker 1: when his breathing changes. And some people might think that's psychotic, 2003 01:53:04,320 --> 01:53:07,120 Speaker 1: but that's like I just know. That's when I'm like, oh, 2004 01:53:07,160 --> 01:53:09,840 Speaker 1: I can stop now. But I find joy in being 2005 01:53:10,080 --> 01:53:12,800 Speaker 1: your rest you know, so know what that means. And 2006 01:53:13,040 --> 01:53:16,360 Speaker 1: that works for us because he wants what I have 2007 01:53:16,439 --> 01:53:19,599 Speaker 1: to offer. What are you getting from all that you're giving? 2008 01:53:19,640 --> 01:53:21,920 Speaker 1: What are you asking for in return? First of all, 2009 01:53:22,000 --> 01:53:26,960 Speaker 1: let me celebrate the young lady who made such a 2010 01:53:27,240 --> 01:53:35,920 Speaker 1: eloquent description of being nice to her man. All she 2011 01:53:36,080 --> 01:53:38,479 Speaker 1: was talking about was being nice man. What is we 2012 01:53:38,640 --> 01:53:43,520 Speaker 1: aging about man? What is we aging about her understanding? 2013 01:53:43,600 --> 01:53:47,760 Speaker 1: That was the highest level of understanding that lady said. 2014 01:53:47,800 --> 01:53:51,240 Speaker 1: I know, listen, I pay attention. What who don't want that? 2015 01:53:51,240 --> 01:53:54,880 Speaker 1: That's on both sides for me. Let me let me 2016 01:53:54,920 --> 01:53:57,960 Speaker 1: deal with this young lady and what she said and 2017 01:53:58,120 --> 01:54:01,680 Speaker 1: framed this before we move on. Relationships are supposed to 2018 01:54:01,720 --> 01:54:06,880 Speaker 1: compliment each other, so not supposed to be a situation 2019 01:54:06,960 --> 01:54:09,880 Speaker 1: in which being with you makes it harder for me. 2020 01:54:10,760 --> 01:54:14,639 Speaker 1: That's not the tag team champions of the world. We're 2021 01:54:14,640 --> 01:54:17,000 Speaker 1: looking to be the tag team champions of the world. 2022 01:54:17,040 --> 01:54:19,400 Speaker 1: Me and baby Girl looking to be the tag team 2023 01:54:19,479 --> 01:54:21,800 Speaker 1: champions of it. So we gotta keep it in a 2024 01:54:21,880 --> 01:54:24,400 Speaker 1: position of what we able to compete with the world. 2025 01:54:24,640 --> 01:54:26,519 Speaker 1: And the only way we can do that is we're 2026 01:54:26,560 --> 01:54:30,719 Speaker 1: dealing with the highest level of understanding of each other, 2027 01:54:31,200 --> 01:54:36,320 Speaker 1: not not just one thing. Like again, the details, the 2028 01:54:36,400 --> 01:54:39,320 Speaker 1: devil is in the in the details. They always talk 2029 01:54:39,360 --> 01:54:42,520 Speaker 1: about the devil being in the details. They don't never 2030 01:54:42,600 --> 01:54:46,440 Speaker 1: talk about the progress that's in the details. Ain't nothing 2031 01:54:46,480 --> 01:54:50,880 Speaker 1: like your woman paying attention. Ain't nothing like your due 2032 01:54:50,920 --> 01:54:54,000 Speaker 1: paying attention to you. He he heard you say such 2033 01:54:54,000 --> 01:54:57,080 Speaker 1: and such. He took care of that. She know you 2034 01:54:57,200 --> 01:54:59,320 Speaker 1: like such and such. She took care that he know 2035 01:54:59,480 --> 01:55:03,840 Speaker 1: you like dam He took care that with the details, though, yes, 2036 01:55:03,920 --> 01:55:07,400 Speaker 1: she liked that type that right there with mushrooms in it. 2037 01:55:07,440 --> 01:55:13,040 Speaker 1: Make sure you real light on the rice. Simple, simple, 2038 01:55:13,160 --> 01:55:18,200 Speaker 1: but dynamic, because he's dealing with the details. So here 2039 01:55:18,240 --> 01:55:20,640 Speaker 1: we are talking about a woman who says, look and 2040 01:55:21,120 --> 01:55:24,320 Speaker 1: reportedly she's dealing with Cam Newton, shout out Cam noonton. 2041 01:55:26,640 --> 01:55:29,360 Speaker 1: But you talk about a woman's dealing with the details. 2042 01:55:29,360 --> 01:55:33,440 Speaker 1: And we got a problem with that. After that, we 2043 01:55:33,520 --> 01:55:36,040 Speaker 1: had Brittany Wrenner come out. Let's listen to what she said, 2044 01:55:36,080 --> 01:55:37,840 Speaker 1: and I want to talk about that a little bit. 2045 01:55:37,960 --> 01:55:40,960 Speaker 1: It's painfully obvious. White men love the idea of a 2046 01:55:40,960 --> 01:55:44,879 Speaker 1: submissive woman. Submissive heart its definition, it's ready to conform 2047 01:55:45,000 --> 01:55:48,880 Speaker 1: to the authority or will of others. The prefixed sub 2048 01:55:49,040 --> 01:55:55,080 Speaker 1: means under think of subpar submarine. In short, your world 2049 01:55:55,640 --> 01:55:57,960 Speaker 1: is under his now. There seems to be a theme here, 2050 01:55:58,160 --> 01:56:00,680 Speaker 1: good girls versus bad girls. Lock I can be open 2051 01:56:00,760 --> 01:56:03,920 Speaker 1: with many keys is a broken lock. And you can't 2052 01:56:03,960 --> 01:56:07,800 Speaker 1: submit to a man you dialing. So my question to 2053 01:56:07,800 --> 01:56:11,760 Speaker 1: a man is do you want perfect Polly, a puppet, 2054 01:56:12,440 --> 01:56:16,960 Speaker 1: a prisoner, or a partner who has no problem overtly 2055 01:56:17,080 --> 01:56:22,080 Speaker 1: challenging him, king treatment and knowing your partner's love languages. 2056 01:56:22,520 --> 01:56:25,880 Speaker 1: That's one thing. Being submitsive is a whole other thing. 2057 01:56:26,200 --> 01:56:30,400 Speaker 1: It's its own thing. If you find yourself abandoning your wants, needs, 2058 01:56:30,480 --> 01:56:35,320 Speaker 1: desires to make something work, I'm here to tell you 2059 01:56:36,440 --> 01:56:41,560 Speaker 1: it was never a match to begin with. Respectfully, they say, 2060 01:56:41,560 --> 01:56:43,800 Speaker 1: a fool always got an answer at the tip of 2061 01:56:43,880 --> 01:56:47,720 Speaker 1: his tongue. We're dealing with a lady who say, oh, 2062 01:56:47,800 --> 01:56:50,240 Speaker 1: I'm dealing with the details when he comes to my men, 2063 01:56:50,360 --> 01:56:54,080 Speaker 1: Ain't I'm being nice? And what I have the awful 2064 01:56:54,640 --> 01:56:57,920 Speaker 1: he wants to receive, not what I've made myself out 2065 01:56:57,960 --> 01:57:01,600 Speaker 1: to be. And I see she's ridding her down and 2066 01:57:01,640 --> 01:57:04,640 Speaker 1: I'm freestyling. But I'll answer a lot of these questions 2067 01:57:04,640 --> 01:57:06,920 Speaker 1: and try to provide some sort of running way for 2068 01:57:07,080 --> 01:57:10,160 Speaker 1: me and to have understanding of why this tends to 2069 01:57:10,240 --> 01:57:14,480 Speaker 1: happen every single time a woman comes out and expresses 2070 01:57:15,080 --> 01:57:18,760 Speaker 1: herself as being nice to her man. I saw the 2071 01:57:18,840 --> 01:57:21,200 Speaker 1: other day or the other week that they said something 2072 01:57:21,240 --> 01:57:26,320 Speaker 1: because Young Miami was in a situation to be nice 2073 01:57:26,360 --> 01:57:29,800 Speaker 1: to her man and represent her man. Whatever understanding, I 2074 01:57:29,880 --> 01:57:33,280 Speaker 1: had what my love ones need to be understanding that 2075 01:57:33,320 --> 01:57:38,120 Speaker 1: you don't need to consider. And I know she's doing 2076 01:57:38,160 --> 01:57:41,400 Speaker 1: this for an algorithm player, for a position player. It's 2077 01:57:41,440 --> 01:57:44,000 Speaker 1: a data move. It's like the Drake album. So I 2078 01:57:44,080 --> 01:57:46,280 Speaker 1: respect it because I'm in the game. I gotta make 2079 01:57:46,400 --> 01:57:50,080 Speaker 1: data moves. Let's be clear on what a data move is, 2080 01:57:50,120 --> 01:57:53,440 Speaker 1: and let's be clear when they're being made. But where 2081 01:57:53,440 --> 01:57:55,839 Speaker 1: I find the issue is is that it gets confused 2082 01:57:55,920 --> 01:57:59,120 Speaker 1: and to their own lookers. Right. I know when you're hustling, 2083 01:57:59,160 --> 01:58:01,360 Speaker 1: and I know you gotta make a living, but you 2084 01:58:01,400 --> 01:58:04,520 Speaker 1: can't tell me you got a problem with someone being asked. 2085 01:58:04,600 --> 01:58:07,560 Speaker 1: Number one, She never said that he's beating me, or 2086 01:58:07,600 --> 01:58:10,720 Speaker 1: he's tricked me into being a submissive woman, or these 2087 01:58:10,760 --> 01:58:14,240 Speaker 1: are two women that can't even talk without someone coming 2088 01:58:14,320 --> 01:58:16,840 Speaker 1: in to say, hey, yo, I think what they're saying 2089 01:58:17,000 --> 01:58:21,200 Speaker 1: is crazy and attacking me. In about two women that's talking. 2090 01:58:24,120 --> 01:58:27,400 Speaker 1: Somebody got to help me understand why men are under attack. 2091 01:58:28,720 --> 01:58:32,240 Speaker 1: It's painfully obvious why men. Can somebody help me understand? 2092 01:58:32,280 --> 01:58:34,480 Speaker 1: And I have no malice in the fight. I love 2093 01:58:34,560 --> 01:58:37,680 Speaker 1: Brittany Runner. I love what she provides, but I think 2094 01:58:37,720 --> 01:58:42,200 Speaker 1: it's starting to fall up the fucking mirrors. And if 2095 01:58:42,280 --> 01:58:45,320 Speaker 1: somebody with some level of understanding don't come out and 2096 01:58:45,360 --> 01:58:48,240 Speaker 1: say something, then we got me and starting to really 2097 01:58:48,360 --> 01:58:53,560 Speaker 1: adopt and adapt to things that may be considered industry 2098 01:58:54,160 --> 01:58:58,560 Speaker 1: plant moves, moves to plant yourself in the industry. Right, 2099 01:58:59,080 --> 01:59:01,960 Speaker 1: she was there as the young lady. And again again 2100 01:59:02,040 --> 01:59:07,760 Speaker 1: I'm having issue with understanding how men are under attack 2101 01:59:08,200 --> 01:59:12,480 Speaker 1: for women having a conversation. And I use the word 2102 01:59:12,520 --> 01:59:16,720 Speaker 1: attack loosely right, because I don't want to make it 2103 01:59:16,760 --> 01:59:20,800 Speaker 1: seem like the dialogue and discussion is bad. I standing 2104 01:59:20,800 --> 01:59:23,760 Speaker 1: by us needing to have these open discussions in order 2105 01:59:23,760 --> 01:59:27,800 Speaker 1: for us to evolve in a very specific way that's 2106 01:59:27,840 --> 01:59:31,480 Speaker 1: needed for us to be beneficial for each other. So 2107 01:59:31,520 --> 01:59:34,640 Speaker 1: I don't shun or shy away from these things. What 2108 01:59:34,800 --> 01:59:38,280 Speaker 1: I do know, though, is that men are seeming to 2109 01:59:38,360 --> 01:59:43,600 Speaker 1: be targeted about two women having a conversation. Now, let's 2110 01:59:43,600 --> 01:59:47,680 Speaker 1: deal with the submissive part. Words have definitions, and so 2111 01:59:48,360 --> 01:59:50,800 Speaker 1: if I deal with it in a way like Brittany 2112 01:59:50,800 --> 01:59:54,280 Speaker 1: Renter dealt with it and read the definition of a 2113 01:59:54,320 --> 01:59:57,560 Speaker 1: lot of these words out being a very bad situation. Right, 2114 01:59:58,120 --> 02:00:00,040 Speaker 1: these words are used in a way. Number one, the 2115 02:00:00,280 --> 02:00:05,760 Speaker 1: young lady who responded to the question never used the 2116 02:00:05,800 --> 02:00:09,640 Speaker 1: word submissive. She was again approached with a question. That's 2117 02:00:09,760 --> 02:00:13,120 Speaker 1: number one. And number two, I think submissive is used 2118 02:00:13,120 --> 02:00:15,440 Speaker 1: the same way I use the text a few seconds 2119 02:00:15,440 --> 02:00:21,320 Speaker 1: ago she used very loosely. Now can it be misused? 2120 02:00:21,480 --> 02:00:25,040 Speaker 1: Can it be mistreated? Yes, we believe so. But the 2121 02:00:25,040 --> 02:00:29,240 Speaker 1: definition or the understanding that our culture tends to have it. 2122 02:00:29,520 --> 02:00:32,840 Speaker 1: We just want you to have a peace offering. Yeah, 2123 02:00:32,880 --> 02:00:38,520 Speaker 1: just provide some peace. Just provide peace. And it seemed 2124 02:00:38,560 --> 02:00:42,200 Speaker 1: like that we have issues with communicating the expectations because 2125 02:00:42,240 --> 02:00:45,040 Speaker 1: we get clowned by people when we ain't even part 2126 02:00:45,080 --> 02:00:48,040 Speaker 1: of the discussion. Men don't even have a voice in 2127 02:00:48,120 --> 02:00:51,200 Speaker 1: that discussion. And then we come out and say, it's 2128 02:00:51,240 --> 02:00:54,040 Speaker 1: painfully obvious why men want a woman that'll be nice 2129 02:00:54,040 --> 02:00:58,000 Speaker 1: to them. It's painfully obvious. He thinks you a sub 2130 02:00:58,120 --> 02:01:02,520 Speaker 1: Just think about a subcontractors submarine. So it's like, come on, man, 2131 02:01:02,600 --> 02:01:04,720 Speaker 1: let's be real. We just want you to be nice, 2132 02:01:05,560 --> 02:01:08,720 Speaker 1: provide a peace offering, and we definitely don't want you 2133 02:01:08,800 --> 02:01:12,000 Speaker 1: like that everything we say. Yo, um, I think we 2134 02:01:12,080 --> 02:01:14,280 Speaker 1: need to do turkey burgers tonight with you know the 2135 02:01:14,760 --> 02:01:17,200 Speaker 1: sessing me sees, but sessing me sees will provide you 2136 02:01:17,240 --> 02:01:19,280 Speaker 1: and put you in a situation where you end up 2137 02:01:19,280 --> 02:01:21,040 Speaker 1: in a hospital. And that's your problem. Now, you know, 2138 02:01:21,400 --> 02:01:24,000 Speaker 1: you know we don't nobody want to Yeah, no, don't. 2139 02:01:24,000 --> 02:01:28,839 Speaker 1: Nobody won't that. Don't nobody won't that you aren't about everything? 2140 02:01:28,920 --> 02:01:32,800 Speaker 1: You want somebody to overtly Uh now, don't nobody won't 2141 02:01:32,800 --> 02:01:37,240 Speaker 1: nobody to avertly criticize them or oppose them. And that's 2142 02:01:37,320 --> 02:01:39,680 Speaker 1: my love one now because I don't want to avertly 2143 02:01:39,720 --> 02:01:43,040 Speaker 1: oppose you. The why I want to do that to 2144 02:01:43,160 --> 02:01:46,360 Speaker 1: you fun if there's a problem I want, I want 2145 02:01:46,360 --> 02:01:50,600 Speaker 1: it to be a constant competition. It's like, nah, baby, baby, baby, 2146 02:01:50,760 --> 02:01:54,080 Speaker 1: provide peace. I want to provide peace. I want to 2147 02:01:54,080 --> 02:01:58,000 Speaker 1: provide luxury to y'all. Want to make it obvious. There's 2148 02:01:58,000 --> 02:02:00,480 Speaker 1: a saying I got that I needed to make it obvious, 2149 02:02:00,720 --> 02:02:03,120 Speaker 1: make it obvious that I'll need you around. I want 2150 02:02:03,160 --> 02:02:05,400 Speaker 1: you around. I want it to be obvious that, Yo, 2151 02:02:05,520 --> 02:02:07,840 Speaker 1: on Saturday night, you want to call this here, this 2152 02:02:07,920 --> 02:02:11,000 Speaker 1: is the vibe over here. I'm nice, it's pleasant, it's 2153 02:02:11,000 --> 02:02:14,240 Speaker 1: smell good, it's a big home. We ain't nobody trying 2154 02:02:14,240 --> 02:02:16,880 Speaker 1: to oppose you. Every little thing you say. I oppose that. 2155 02:02:17,240 --> 02:02:19,880 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't like cheese on my burgers, 2156 02:02:20,160 --> 02:02:22,720 Speaker 1: So no, let's not do burgers because you're gonna eat cheese. 2157 02:02:22,760 --> 02:02:25,600 Speaker 1: And then that hurts my stomach to even like. Yo, bro, 2158 02:02:26,520 --> 02:02:29,800 Speaker 1: that's a hard life. What about a relationship are we 2159 02:02:29,920 --> 02:02:33,200 Speaker 1: fighting about? When this woman was talking about being nice? Yo, 2160 02:02:33,280 --> 02:02:37,520 Speaker 1: I'm lost. Somebody helped me understand. When I hear Brittany 2161 02:02:37,560 --> 02:02:39,920 Speaker 1: talking that, I think I'll get on the pard to 2162 02:02:40,040 --> 02:02:43,200 Speaker 1: just kind of further some more thoughts. Because when I 2163 02:02:43,280 --> 02:02:47,080 Speaker 1: hear talk, I hear fighting. Now I hear fighting, I 2164 02:02:47,080 --> 02:02:50,320 Speaker 1: don't hear working together. Then that's the problem. A lot 2165 02:02:50,320 --> 02:02:52,200 Speaker 1: of y'all fighting with your men, a lot of y'all 2166 02:02:52,240 --> 02:02:54,800 Speaker 1: men fighting with your women. It should work together thing. 2167 02:02:55,920 --> 02:02:58,640 Speaker 1: Y'all gotta be in this together. I am because we are, 2168 02:02:58,760 --> 02:03:01,840 Speaker 1: not we all because I am. I am because we are, 2169 02:03:02,880 --> 02:03:06,800 Speaker 1: and we all because I am. You understand we're working together, 2170 02:03:07,240 --> 02:03:09,560 Speaker 1: We're not working against each other. We don't need to 2171 02:03:09,600 --> 02:03:13,280 Speaker 1: be in constant competition with each other. This ain't a 2172 02:03:13,360 --> 02:03:16,560 Speaker 1: basketball game, and this ain't a podcast or a little 2173 02:03:16,640 --> 02:03:19,960 Speaker 1: live event where you gotta constantly be right. It seems 2174 02:03:20,000 --> 02:03:22,720 Speaker 1: like that's the energy that we're getting in respectfully, that 2175 02:03:22,840 --> 02:03:26,000 Speaker 1: Brittany will definitely have a conversation if she want to 2176 02:03:26,000 --> 02:03:29,000 Speaker 1: have a conversation. I'm just a paul that we are 2177 02:03:29,160 --> 02:03:32,280 Speaker 1: arguing by the woman who says, I watch my man 2178 02:03:32,320 --> 02:03:34,520 Speaker 1: and pay attention to the details. If he come in 2179 02:03:34,560 --> 02:03:36,280 Speaker 1: and he just go to the restroom, he'd been on 2180 02:03:36,320 --> 02:03:38,760 Speaker 1: a five hour flight when he come out to bear froom, 2181 02:03:38,800 --> 02:03:41,600 Speaker 1: I'm already unpacking this not because he said when I 2182 02:03:41,680 --> 02:03:44,080 Speaker 1: get home, make sure the first thing you do is 2183 02:03:44,120 --> 02:03:47,760 Speaker 1: have it unpacked. That's when a man thank you under 2184 02:03:47,840 --> 02:03:51,400 Speaker 1: you and the idea that we'll conflate those things makes 2185 02:03:51,480 --> 02:03:56,080 Speaker 1: me almost say that that's dangerous. The voice, the leading 2186 02:03:56,200 --> 02:04:00,520 Speaker 1: voice of yo, bro, we can't do that. It's dangerous 2187 02:04:00,520 --> 02:04:03,360 Speaker 1: for us to conflate those two. The lady is saying, 2188 02:04:03,480 --> 02:04:07,680 Speaker 1: I'm taking initiative for somebody I love. That's what I provide, 2189 02:04:07,920 --> 02:04:12,000 Speaker 1: and then get criticized by women to say he's made 2190 02:04:12,080 --> 02:04:16,560 Speaker 1: you do that blink twice if you're in trouble, And 2191 02:04:16,720 --> 02:04:19,800 Speaker 1: for me, I just hate that that's the situation. Of course, 2192 02:04:19,920 --> 02:04:23,440 Speaker 1: last week I spoke about the verses, really crazy situation, right, 2193 02:04:24,360 --> 02:04:26,680 Speaker 1: the verses with ray J and Sammy. Ray J was 2194 02:04:26,760 --> 02:04:29,200 Speaker 1: up there slipping bad and he got in a situation 2195 02:04:29,240 --> 02:04:34,360 Speaker 1: where he had, again being a great businessman, understood that 2196 02:04:34,400 --> 02:04:37,160 Speaker 1: it was an opportunity. Again, I want people to understand 2197 02:04:37,200 --> 02:04:40,120 Speaker 1: that the Internet is fall It's a fake place. Whatever 2198 02:04:40,200 --> 02:04:43,280 Speaker 1: happens on the Internet, you need to put yourself in 2199 02:04:43,360 --> 02:04:46,680 Speaker 1: a position to understand that it's not who you are, period, 2200 02:04:46,880 --> 02:04:50,120 Speaker 1: good or bad. And how do we monetize if we 2201 02:04:50,280 --> 02:04:55,120 Speaker 1: can without hurting anyone, right, without influencing anyone that's something 2202 02:04:56,000 --> 02:04:58,280 Speaker 1: in the wrong way, of taking advantage of the low 2203 02:04:58,360 --> 02:05:01,520 Speaker 1: level thinker and thin like that. Right, try to move 2204 02:05:01,560 --> 02:05:03,800 Speaker 1: with morale and at some point you may make a 2205 02:05:03,920 --> 02:05:07,280 Speaker 1: mistake and that'll be acceptable for those that understand that 2206 02:05:07,320 --> 02:05:10,440 Speaker 1: your morale and your honor was intact. Outside of that, 2207 02:05:10,840 --> 02:05:13,640 Speaker 1: you gotta just keep moving that be Nay says. There'll 2208 02:05:13,640 --> 02:05:16,160 Speaker 1: be negative people. There'll be people saying that it ain't 2209 02:05:16,160 --> 02:05:18,480 Speaker 1: so that it won't happen, but God said it will 2210 02:05:18,560 --> 02:05:21,879 Speaker 1: be so right. You gotta put yourself in a position 2211 02:05:21,920 --> 02:05:24,640 Speaker 1: and say, no matter what they say, I'm gonna keep 2212 02:05:24,640 --> 02:05:27,520 Speaker 1: going good, bad or indifferent. I gotta keep my head 2213 02:05:27,560 --> 02:05:29,720 Speaker 1: down and keep swimming to the other side of the pool. 2214 02:05:30,160 --> 02:05:33,800 Speaker 1: Ray J, being a great business man, understood that coming 2215 02:05:33,800 --> 02:05:37,840 Speaker 1: out of that, my name is in the algorithm. Coming 2216 02:05:37,840 --> 02:05:39,840 Speaker 1: out of that, I'm in a situation where I maybe 2217 02:05:39,840 --> 02:05:41,720 Speaker 1: can make something. So let me figure out what we 2218 02:05:41,760 --> 02:05:44,440 Speaker 1: can do. So I think he gonna get with Twitch. 2219 02:05:44,560 --> 02:05:46,600 Speaker 1: I think he gonna give with one of these platforms 2220 02:05:46,600 --> 02:05:51,040 Speaker 1: and put together something where he's able to monetize his 2221 02:05:51,320 --> 02:05:56,280 Speaker 1: ability or his journey on getting back to his singing 2222 02:05:56,440 --> 02:05:58,880 Speaker 1: voice or whatever that means, right, And so he'll have 2223 02:05:58,960 --> 02:06:02,560 Speaker 1: cameras with him and tis that. Before he does that, 2224 02:06:02,720 --> 02:06:04,920 Speaker 1: he got on Live with Bobby V and Sammy to 2225 02:06:05,000 --> 02:06:08,080 Speaker 1: talk about them still in this moment in regards to 2226 02:06:08,240 --> 02:06:10,760 Speaker 1: singing this one wish song like that, like he was 2227 02:06:10,800 --> 02:06:13,120 Speaker 1: really upset about that.

And when you look at O Marian versus 2318 02:11:05,960 --> 02:11:09,280 Speaker 1: you look at Sammy, look at that, because Sammy would 2319 02:11:09,280 --> 02:11:11,400 Speaker 1: tell you I ain't gonna lie boy, I would just 2320 02:11:11,520 --> 02:11:14,080 Speaker 1: eat noodles before they popped this off. And why he 2321 02:11:14,200 --> 02:11:17,440 Speaker 1: came out so hard cold, That's why I tell y'all 2322 02:11:17,480 --> 02:11:21,560 Speaker 1: about dealing with a motherfucker that's coming from behind, dealing 2323 02:11:21,600 --> 02:11:24,320 Speaker 1: with a motherfucker that you thought was a disadvan that 2324 02:11:24,600 --> 02:11:27,920 Speaker 1: was at a disadvantage, that needed that opportunity, that needed 2325 02:11:28,000 --> 02:11:31,960 Speaker 1: that little that was taking that serious. You'll see somebody 2326 02:11:32,040 --> 02:11:34,680 Speaker 1: like Sammy come in and he taking it dead serious. 2327 02:11:36,040 --> 02:11:38,800 Speaker 1: And so what that does for him is I'm coming 2328 02:11:38,800 --> 02:11:41,560 Speaker 1: out saying hard. I probably ain't smoked in a couple 2329 02:11:41,560 --> 02:11:44,480 Speaker 1: of days like he took it serious because he needed 2330 02:11:44,480 --> 02:11:46,920 Speaker 1: that push. And as far as what we're seeing, he's 2331 02:11:46,960 --> 02:11:49,960 Speaker 1: getting a little push. But will its sustained. It's the 2332 02:11:50,160 --> 02:11:55,080 Speaker 1: versus push, a real sustainable push. Do you really get 2333 02:11:55,160 --> 02:11:58,320 Speaker 1: something out of that? Does it really have legs after that? 2334 02:11:58,400 --> 02:12:02,000 Speaker 1: Like three months down the role, are you still being 2335 02:12:02,040 --> 02:12:05,400 Speaker 1: booked more than you worth? Six months prior to the verses. 2336 02:12:05,960 --> 02:12:07,760 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. If I was saying me 2337 02:12:07,800 --> 02:12:10,480 Speaker 1: and those dudes, I would be taking interviews and try 2338 02:12:10,520 --> 02:12:12,760 Speaker 1: to make it grow legs. I keep popping out with 2339 02:12:13,000 --> 02:12:15,760 Speaker 1: because I don't got nothing else, you know what I'm saying, 2340 02:12:15,760 --> 02:12:17,640 Speaker 1: I'll just try to keep my name out there. But 2341 02:12:17,680 --> 02:12:20,360 Speaker 1: that's me understanding what the algorithm is in how to 2342 02:12:20,440 --> 02:12:22,960 Speaker 1: navigate through this game.

Just two 2706 02:34:19,600 --> 02:34:23,120 Speaker 1: minutes before the stop, police say Cox was uncooperative, banging 2707 02:34:23,160 --> 02:34:28,120 Speaker 1: against the walls and lying on the floor kicking the doors. 2708 02:34:29,040 --> 02:34:31,280 Speaker 1: Cox can be seen getting up to sit on the 2709 02:34:31,320 --> 02:34:33,720 Speaker 1: bench in the back of the van, and moments later, 2710 02:34:33,800 --> 02:34:36,480 Speaker 1: police say the van comes to a stop. Cox appears 2711 02:34:36,480 --> 02:34:38,760 Speaker 1: to slide down the bench and slam into the wall 2712 02:34:38,800 --> 02:34:46,400 Speaker 1: of the van, calling for help. Four minutes later, police 2713 02:34:46,440 --> 02:34:49,160 Speaker 1: say Officer Diaz opens the door and Cox says he 2714 02:34:49,200 --> 02:34:52,680 Speaker 1: can't move. Police say Diaz called an ambulance. Cox was 2715 02:34:52,720 --> 02:34:55,920 Speaker 1: then taken to a detention center, which Jacobson says is 2716 02:34:55,959 --> 02:35:00,400 Speaker 1: outside of normal protocol. We have a policy that says 2717 02:35:00,440 --> 02:35:03,039 Speaker 1: if someone's in distressing the wagon, you pull over, your 2718 02:35:03,040 --> 02:35:06,440 Speaker 1: call for medical assistance, and you wait. He didn't do that. 2719 02:35:06,600 --> 02:35:09,640 Speaker 1: Once at the detention center, Diaz TX to Seargeant Betsy 2720 02:35:09,720 --> 02:35:17,200 Speaker 1: Sighe video shows officers attempting to get Cox out of 2721 02:35:17,240 --> 02:35:24,920 Speaker 1: the van. You're not even trying. Moments later, bodycam video 2722 02:35:25,000 --> 02:35:27,720 Speaker 1: shows Cox is pulled out of the van by his feet. 2723 02:35:28,040 --> 02:35:31,199 Speaker 1: Officers get Cox and wheelchair when they see he doesn't stand. 2724 02:35:35,400 --> 02:35:38,680 Speaker 1: I'm troubled by it. I believe that there's an attempt 2725 02:35:38,720 --> 02:35:40,920 Speaker 1: to help him at first, but I'm troubled by the 2726 02:35:40,920 --> 02:35:47,480 Speaker 1: rest of it. Wow, man godly, And there's no protocol 2727 02:35:47,480 --> 02:35:51,400 Speaker 1: on police officers in America. Police officers in America can 2728 02:35:52,480 --> 02:35:57,200 Speaker 1: literally move through neighborhoods however they see fit, and we 2729 02:35:57,280 --> 02:35:59,600 Speaker 1: have to depend on some kind of system that put 2730 02:35:59,680 --> 02:36:02,280 Speaker 1: him in neighborhood to hold them accountable for how they 2731 02:36:02,320 --> 02:36:06,800 Speaker 1: acted when they were out there with no clear indication 2732 02:36:07,000 --> 02:36:11,240 Speaker 1: or no clear set of rules. There's there's really no 2733 02:36:11,240 --> 02:36:14,600 Speaker 1: Now they say there's rules in place, but Broy they 2734 02:36:14,640 --> 02:36:16,720 Speaker 1: treat us any kind of way when they searchers the 2735 02:36:16,800 --> 02:36:21,040 Speaker 1: handcuffs be they ain't studying this now. They mentioned the 2736 02:36:21,160 --> 02:36:23,920 Speaker 1: young man had a gun. That's not illegal in that state. 2737 02:36:24,000 --> 02:36:26,480 Speaker 1: You can have a film in that state. That's number one. 2738 02:36:26,600 --> 02:36:32,960 Speaker 1: Number two. They mentioned that he was intoxicated. I don't 2739 02:36:33,000 --> 02:36:35,320 Speaker 1: know if they gave him a breathalizer to really see 2740 02:36:35,360 --> 02:36:38,840 Speaker 1: how intoxicated or if he was intoxicated. Right, So these 2741 02:36:38,879 --> 02:36:43,280 Speaker 1: things are just frivolous things that they're mentioning. Now what 2742 02:36:43,400 --> 02:36:46,400 Speaker 1: I would say happened there is that he was kicking 2743 02:36:46,440 --> 02:36:49,360 Speaker 1: in all of that, and they got frustrated and started 2744 02:36:49,440 --> 02:36:52,200 Speaker 1: driving like that, knowing that it wasn't in the seatbelts in. Now, 2745 02:36:53,640 --> 02:36:57,320 Speaker 1: I'm almost certain that they got frustrated, because they get 2746 02:36:57,320 --> 02:37:01,080 Speaker 1: frustrated sometimes I'm confused. Like the polar he said, grab 2747 02:37:01,160 --> 02:37:04,080 Speaker 1: your arm twisted, put it in a weird way and 2748 02:37:04,120 --> 02:37:08,039 Speaker 1: say don't move. It's like, man, my body naturally is 2749 02:37:08,080 --> 02:37:11,000 Speaker 1: gonna move. That is uncomfortable. So if I try to 2750 02:37:11,320 --> 02:37:13,760 Speaker 1: then this, I said, don't move, Hey, yo, don't move. 2751 02:37:13,840 --> 02:37:18,120 Speaker 1: It's like, yo, my body is naturally trying to straighten out. 2752 02:37:18,200 --> 02:37:21,280 Speaker 1: You got my sap. And they don't even don't move. 2753 02:37:21,520 --> 02:37:24,000 Speaker 1: One time they shot a guy get on the ground 2754 02:37:24,000 --> 02:37:26,600 Speaker 1: and he was on the ground, they started shooting boom, boom, boom, 2755 02:37:26,600 --> 02:37:30,160 Speaker 1: and what I'm like, Yo, they playing to the camera now. 2756 02:37:31,480 --> 02:37:34,480 Speaker 1: But in this case, I think they got frustrated that 2757 02:37:34,520 --> 02:37:39,840 Speaker 1: he was kicking and doing all that and actually started 2758 02:37:39,840 --> 02:37:42,680 Speaker 1: to drive crazy like that. You know, I just spend 2759 02:37:42,720 --> 02:37:45,280 Speaker 1: the last five minutes, and I don't spend much time 2760 02:37:45,360 --> 02:37:47,920 Speaker 1: on they saals, but I spent the last five minutes 2761 02:37:47,959 --> 02:37:53,080 Speaker 1: thinking about the people that doubted me, motherfuckers that counted me. 2762 02:37:53,160 --> 02:37:55,480 Speaker 1: Out that didn't see the vision or don't see the 2763 02:37:55,600 --> 02:37:59,360 Speaker 1: vision because don't don't be confused. Everybody still don't feel 2764 02:37:59,400 --> 02:38:03,800 Speaker 1: my presence. It's important for me to compartmentalize my conversation 2765 02:38:04,000 --> 02:38:08,640 Speaker 1: right and not confuse my whereabouts with my destination. I'm 2766 02:38:08,680 --> 02:38:11,600 Speaker 1: influential in this space, but it's important I'm paid for 2767 02:38:11,720 --> 02:38:14,400 Speaker 1: my time because they're making people rich for doing less 2768 02:38:14,400 --> 02:38:18,280 Speaker 1: than me. But I spent the last five minutes thinking 2769 02:38:18,280 --> 02:38:20,879 Speaker 1: about the people that doubted me, and I understand y'all 2770 02:38:20,920 --> 02:38:26,000 Speaker 1: do wrong. Real is get done bad in this world. 2771 02:38:26,040 --> 02:38:28,160 Speaker 1: It's the suckers that they allowed to slip through and 2772 02:38:28,280 --> 02:38:32,040 Speaker 1: slizzer through. And when I say I think, the small 2773 02:38:32,120 --> 02:38:36,160 Speaker 1: mind to think I'm actually talking about violing individuals. I 2774 02:38:36,200 --> 02:38:41,120 Speaker 1: even I think about people like Britney Grinder, like the 2775 02:38:41,160 --> 02:38:44,440 Speaker 1: story of Brittany Grinder. Ain't nobody loud about that. The 2776 02:38:44,680 --> 02:38:48,160 Speaker 1: w NBA not paying enough. Ain't nobody saying that right? 2777 02:38:48,520 --> 02:38:51,520 Speaker 1: We understand business in this coach and in this world, 2778 02:38:51,560 --> 02:38:54,400 Speaker 1: so we say, for some reason it ain't making enough, 2779 02:38:54,480 --> 02:38:57,199 Speaker 1: But how is it the same thing not making it enough. 2780 02:38:57,440 --> 02:39:01,280 Speaker 1: It's a conversation to be had there that nobody heads right. 2781 02:39:01,360 --> 02:39:03,200 Speaker 1: But we said that to the side. I look at 2782 02:39:03,240 --> 02:39:06,280 Speaker 1: the gunner, the y Sell lyrics they're using in court, 2783 02:39:06,959 --> 02:39:08,959 Speaker 1: like I feel I feel it though, like I'm the 2784 02:39:09,040 --> 02:39:11,920 Speaker 1: last voice that even it's still like loud about that. 2785 02:39:12,000 --> 02:39:14,840 Speaker 1: I hear sprinkled here and now.

And they rung bills in my mother 2801 02:40:09,520 --> 02:40:12,840 Speaker 1: mind because I already knew I was gonna beat the 2802 02:40:12,920 --> 02:40:15,360 Speaker 1: odds man. I had already made my mind up. When 2803 02:40:15,360 --> 02:40:18,160 Speaker 1: I ain't had no money and there was no gain around, 2804 02:40:18,160 --> 02:40:21,200 Speaker 1: I made my mind up, and boy, dealing would have 2805 02:40:21,240 --> 02:40:23,440 Speaker 1: made up mine as a problem for the people on 2806 02:40:23,480 --> 02:40:27,119 Speaker 1: the other side of that.

I just 2841 02:42:22,959 --> 02:42:25,600 Speaker 1: said this new age Eraror in the twenty as we 2842 02:42:25,760 --> 02:42:29,040 Speaker 1: move into this new Erarors, it's not gonna be about 2843 02:42:29,080 --> 02:42:33,440 Speaker 1: who's talking. It's gonna be about really really dissecting and 2844 02:42:33,560 --> 02:42:36,240 Speaker 1: choosing where you're going to get your information from. Because 2845 02:42:36,280 --> 02:42:39,560 Speaker 1: there's a fad with talking. Everybody doing a lot of talking, 2846 02:42:39,879 --> 02:42:42,760 Speaker 1: and we don't fall victims just talking. We got action 2847 02:42:42,800 --> 02:42:47,360 Speaker 1: and information attached oiles, Yes, consequences attached to what we 2848 02:42:47,520 --> 02:42:49,560 Speaker 1: say and what we do, and so we move with 2849 02:42:49,600 --> 02:42:52,800 Speaker 1: that in mind and understand that moving forward with people 2850 02:42:52,879 --> 02:42:55,160 Speaker 1: gonna be doing a lot of talking, but you gotta 2851 02:42:55,200 --> 02:42:57,800 Speaker 1: know where to go get it from. And I don't 2852 02:42:57,840 --> 02:43:01,240 Speaker 1: landm I extremely picking have expectations on the people I 2853 02:43:01,360 --> 02:43:04,360 Speaker 1: get my advice from. I think everyone just taking advice 2854 02:43:04,440 --> 02:43:10,960 Speaker 1: for many old body is setting itself up for failures. 2855 02:43:11,000 --> 02:43:13,200 Speaker 1: A fool knows what to say and the wise man 2856 02:43:13,280 --> 02:43:17,039 Speaker 1: knows when they said. So sometimes it's about who you 2857 02:43:17,160 --> 02:43:19,160 Speaker 1: talk to and when they talking to you, and where 2858 02:43:19,160 --> 02:43:21,359 Speaker 1: you're in in your life as far as the information 2859 02:43:21,400 --> 02:43:24,440 Speaker 1: and if it resonates. Sometimes dudes just talking over your head. 2860 02:43:26,360 --> 02:43:29,039 Speaker 1: Sometimes they're dealing with game that I put down six 2861 02:43:29,080 --> 02:43:31,560 Speaker 1: months ago that's just affecting their life now. But it's 2862 02:43:31,640 --> 02:43:35,400 Speaker 1: catching up. And that's why they say be patient. Saint 2863 02:43:35,440 --> 02:43:38,200 Speaker 1: a quick play. This sain't a quick turnaround play, but 2864 02:43:38,280 --> 02:43:43,119 Speaker 1: we denounced criticism that don't involve advancement, Like, if your 2865 02:43:43,120 --> 02:43:46,800 Speaker 1: critiques don't evolve in advancement, then you're not. Again, to 2866 02:43:46,879 --> 02:43:49,240 Speaker 1: speak with love is to speak without judgment. So if 2867 02:43:49,240 --> 02:43:51,480 Speaker 1: you're just critiquing to try to be hard showing us, 2868 02:43:51,720 --> 02:43:54,520 Speaker 1: that's we reject that. We know you're trying to diwn 2869 02:43:54,520 --> 02:43:56,680 Speaker 1: on us and hurt us, right, but we come from 2870 02:43:56,680 --> 02:43:59,560 Speaker 1: the dog, so the dog don't scales. But we try 2871 02:43:59,560 --> 02:44:02,640 Speaker 1: to stay positive and shed light on the positive things 2872 02:44:02,680 --> 02:44:04,920 Speaker 1: and stay away from all of that. But if it 2873 02:44:05,040 --> 02:44:08,360 Speaker 1: don't involve us, Actually, if the critique, and that's why 2874 02:44:08,360 --> 02:44:10,720 Speaker 1: I think I resonate with the culture because they know 2875 02:44:10,800 --> 02:44:15,439 Speaker 1: I'm speaking trying to get information from things. I ain't gossiping. 2876 02:44:16,120 --> 02:44:18,440 Speaker 1: We don't do no gossiping. We're trying to say, yo, 2877 02:44:18,600 --> 02:44:20,800 Speaker 1: the thinking, Like just think if you was a rapper 2878 02:44:20,840 --> 02:44:22,680 Speaker 1: and they had you bagged up and then you came 2879 02:44:22,720 --> 02:44:24,959 Speaker 1: out and tweeted this to the label, Yeah, how you 2880 02:44:25,040 --> 02:44:27,720 Speaker 1: think I feel? I feel cheated? Well, so I go 2881 02:44:28,040 --> 02:44:31,200 Speaker 1: all these white folces, right, So I try to dive 2882 02:44:31,280 --> 02:44:33,560 Speaker 1: into the thinking of some of those things, right, And 2883 02:44:33,560 --> 02:44:36,520 Speaker 1: that's the medicine and the can, the approach. Very limited 2884 02:44:36,560 --> 02:44:39,640 Speaker 1: people can do it because it's high level understanding. You 2885 02:44:39,680 --> 02:44:43,480 Speaker 1: can't be talking. It's crazy because you come up in 2886 02:44:43,520 --> 02:44:45,440 Speaker 1: the game and you think that the black people are 2887 02:44:45,440 --> 02:44:47,080 Speaker 1: gonna be the ones that lift you up. And I 2888 02:44:47,160 --> 02:44:50,600 Speaker 1: got good brothers, man, that answer my cause and point 2889 02:44:50,640 --> 02:44:52,920 Speaker 1: me in directions all the time. Man. But I'm finding 2890 02:44:52,920 --> 02:44:58,680 Speaker 1: that the white people ain't got no problem with old assists. Man. Now, 2891 02:44:58,879 --> 02:45:01,920 Speaker 1: Larry Bird to get the ball, is what I'm figuring 2892 02:45:02,000 --> 02:45:04,360 Speaker 1: out in this game. The folk don't brought me to 2893 02:45:04,480 --> 02:45:07,840 Speaker 1: somewhere that head thirty thousand people in it and publicists 2894 02:45:07,840 --> 02:45:11,440 Speaker 1: and people that do podcasts, and they got Amazon on 2895 02:45:11,480 --> 02:45:13,920 Speaker 1: the line, and this and that is happening, and you 2896 02:45:14,040 --> 02:45:18,279 Speaker 1: saying that, yo, the people here, man, this ain't just no. 2897 02:45:18,879 --> 02:45:22,320 Speaker 1: This is some content. And that's why I always tell 2898 02:45:22,360 --> 02:45:24,840 Speaker 1: people keep their mind open, man, because I deal with 2899 02:45:24,879 --> 02:45:28,880 Speaker 1: Marcus Shell. I don't just look at you know, respectfully, 2900 02:45:29,000 --> 02:45:33,119 Speaker 1: Charlemagne or none of this. I look at market sheep period. 2901 02:45:33,200 --> 02:45:35,240 Speaker 1: I know that we got to operate outside of that 2902 02:45:35,360 --> 02:45:38,280 Speaker 1: small hippop. At least I do I have the ability to, 2903 02:45:38,440 --> 02:45:40,600 Speaker 1: at least I like to believe I do so. With 2904 02:45:40,640 --> 02:45:43,520 Speaker 1: that in mind delusion or not one foot in front 2905 02:45:43,560 --> 02:45:45,480 Speaker 1: the other. Let's figure it out. We'll get there and 2906 02:45:45,520 --> 02:45:48,080 Speaker 1: fall on our face and be proud that we got there. 2907 02:45:48,520 --> 02:45:51,080 Speaker 1: But one thing about it. We come equipped with information 2908 02:45:51,120 --> 02:45:54,160 Speaker 1: and we're gonna keep our head in the game. Half 2909 02:45:54,200 --> 02:45:56,240 Speaker 1: the battle is keeping their head in the game. Them 2910 02:45:56,320 --> 02:46:00,520 Speaker 1: athletes go pro and fall off mentally physically, the same 2911 02:46:00,600 --> 02:46:03,400 Speaker 1: body that you're dealing with. It's the same that kids coach. 2912 02:46:03,560 --> 02:46:06,760 Speaker 1: You'll fall off mentally, and that's what you gotta make 2913 02:46:06,760 --> 02:46:09,480 Speaker 1: sure you don't do. Loon ain't never falling off mentally. 2914 02:46:09,560 --> 02:46:12,040 Speaker 1: My mind, in the game, everything is on the line. 2915 02:46:12,440 --> 02:46:14,400 Speaker 1: As long as you move with that in mind, you 2916 02:46:14,440 --> 02:46:18,359 Speaker 1: can't fall off mentally. What they're viewing is the results 2917 02:46:18,360 --> 02:46:22,879 Speaker 1: of my preparation. I can't lose if I propel enough. Period. 2918 02:46:23,560 --> 02:46:25,600 Speaker 1: And when you get money, that's what you get it 2919 02:46:25,720 --> 02:46:29,680 Speaker 1: you get time to prepare or broke.

It just take you longer, right, 2926 02:46:46,280 --> 02:46:49,959 Speaker 1: Old rich gotta all he get to do, names prepare 2927 02:46:50,040 --> 02:46:52,240 Speaker 1: for his next move. What can I do? Do the 2928 02:46:52,280 --> 02:46:55,400 Speaker 1: things I enjoy right now? All my rich friends telling 2929 02:46:55,440 --> 02:46:57,840 Speaker 1: me find a hobby, I keep telling them I'm trying 2930 02:46:57,879 --> 02:47:00,960 Speaker 1: to find the information. Man. If I go to the 2931 02:47:00,959 --> 02:47:04,360 Speaker 1: golf course right now, they don't resonate. This, don't feel right. 2932 02:47:04,400 --> 02:47:07,280 Speaker 1: I go to the gym. It's cool. I can't my mind. 2933 02:47:07,320 --> 02:47:11,920 Speaker 1: Ain't my mind saying ten millions, My mind saying what 2934 02:47:12,080 --> 02:47:16,840 Speaker 1: a month at ten millions? Get it here? And that's 2935 02:47:16,840 --> 02:47:20,200 Speaker 1: just all that I continue to you know, as I go, Man. 2936 02:47:20,280 --> 02:47:22,920 Speaker 1: But I said a couple of weeks ago, to pay 2937 02:47:22,959 --> 02:47:26,080 Speaker 1: attention to the people ahead of you in regards to 2938 02:47:26,120 --> 02:47:28,920 Speaker 1: the Dion Saunders in the saving situation, man, and they 2939 02:47:29,080 --> 02:47:31,560 Speaker 1: end up going viral. I was just speaking about how 2940 02:47:32,080 --> 02:47:34,039 Speaker 1: a lot of times the people ahead of you are 2941 02:47:34,080 --> 02:47:36,280 Speaker 1: only dependent on the fact that they ahead of you. 2942 02:47:36,400 --> 02:47:38,880 Speaker 1: So we get uncomfortable as you get closer because they 2943 02:47:39,000 --> 02:47:43,560 Speaker 1: no skill set. It ain't even a determining factor. Oh 2944 02:47:43,680 --> 02:47:45,879 Speaker 1: they got on you, is that they got that little 2945 02:47:45,920 --> 02:47:48,400 Speaker 1: space on you, that little distance on you. If we 2946 02:47:48,520 --> 02:47:50,680 Speaker 1: break that down and look at it for what it's 2947 02:47:50,720 --> 02:47:55,960 Speaker 1: worth you ever broke, watch it down. All the sunglass 2948 02:47:56,040 --> 02:47:59,800 Speaker 1: is the same. You just willing to pay a thousand 2949 02:48:00,240 --> 02:48:02,840 Speaker 1: for that pair and eighteen dollars for that pair. All 2950 02:48:02,879 --> 02:48:05,560 Speaker 1: are the same. So what you got. What I'm saying 2951 02:48:05,760 --> 02:48:09,680 Speaker 1: is sometimes it be about the only difference people got 2952 02:48:09,760 --> 02:48:12,000 Speaker 1: on you. It's the difference that they got on you. 2953 02:48:12,280 --> 02:48:15,119 Speaker 1: So as you start to close that gap, they start 2954 02:48:15,160 --> 02:48:18,920 Speaker 1: the penny. And remember to the people who are in power, 2955 02:48:19,440 --> 02:48:21,840 Speaker 1: that feel like when you get closer to what they 2956 02:48:21,920 --> 02:48:25,080 Speaker 1: think it's power, they start to think that you gain 2957 02:48:25,160 --> 02:48:29,520 Speaker 1: in power means them losing power. And so equal sounds 2958 02:48:29,560 --> 02:48:33,120 Speaker 1: like favorable to thank you losing power, or when you're 2959 02:48:33,120 --> 02:48:36,760 Speaker 1: dealing with racist people to dig what I'm saying, yeah 2960 02:48:36,800 --> 02:48:39,879 Speaker 1: you're equal or the same treatment sound like leverage to 2961 02:48:39,959 --> 02:48:43,240 Speaker 1: a thank you losing power in the event that you 2962 02:48:43,360 --> 02:48:47,600 Speaker 1: get equal rights or equal looks or equal pay or 2963 02:48:47,760 --> 02:48:51,360 Speaker 1: CPM or whatever it might be in whatever business that 2964 02:48:51,520 --> 02:48:53,920 Speaker 1: you in. Right, it's a reason why at the workplace 2965 02:48:53,920 --> 02:48:55,800 Speaker 1: they don't want nobody to tell me about what they make. 2966 02:48:55,920 --> 02:48:59,800 Speaker 1: Why is this such a cardinal sin? Why I can't say, Man, 2967 02:49:00,720 --> 02:49:03,360 Speaker 1: it's setting eight dollars an hour and they budget for 2968 02:49:03,400 --> 02:49:07,000 Speaker 1: that just so you know, black man like, they'll fire 2969 02:49:07,080 --> 02:49:09,600 Speaker 1: you for telling another note what you made because they 2970 02:49:09,680 --> 02:49:13,039 Speaker 1: know all you got on them is that the hide 2971 02:49:13,040 --> 02:49:15,640 Speaker 1: and of that information. And it's the same thing in 2972 02:49:15,680 --> 02:49:18,400 Speaker 1: the industry. They like to hide the information because it 2973 02:49:18,400 --> 02:49:21,720 Speaker 1: ain't about talent. Like you don't get in the media 2974 02:49:21,840 --> 02:49:24,640 Speaker 1: room just because you're killing it every topic, everything you 2975 02:49:24,760 --> 02:49:26,960 Speaker 1: touching all the game. Because if that's the case, i'd 2976 02:49:26,959 --> 02:49:28,760 Speaker 1: have been in the media room. You get in the 2977 02:49:28,879 --> 02:49:32,400 Speaker 1: media room by going through a route that people outside 2978 02:49:32,440 --> 02:49:35,400 Speaker 1: the industry don't know, right, And so as I'm in 2979 02:49:35,440 --> 02:49:38,480 Speaker 1: the industry, I ask for access to those routes because 2980 02:49:38,480 --> 02:49:41,720 Speaker 1: I understand brand building. It's a powerful thing, but I 2981 02:49:41,840 --> 02:49:50,720 Speaker 1: need people to know that sometimes equal, sometimes fair seemed 2982 02:49:50,760 --> 02:49:53,879 Speaker 1: like leverage. It seemed unfair to the people that's in power, 2983 02:49:53,920 --> 02:49:57,600 Speaker 1: where they get uncomfortable as you as you get closer. Heyo, 2984 02:49:57,720 --> 02:50:01,320 Speaker 1: somebody helped me understanding this earlier. Spoke about it again 2985 02:50:01,920 --> 02:50:04,200 Speaker 1: the culture. But it's just you could sit out and 2986 02:50:04,320 --> 02:50:08,000 Speaker 1: just have conversation about subsections of the coaching for hours. 2987 02:50:08,000 --> 02:50:09,959 Speaker 1: That's why I don't know how people are struggling for 2988 02:50:10,040 --> 02:50:12,320 Speaker 1: things to speak about, but it may be the way 2989 02:50:12,560 --> 02:50:14,960 Speaker 1: that my mind views the world and my intake of 2990 02:50:15,040 --> 02:50:18,320 Speaker 1: the information right. Nonetheless, look at how the coach you 2991 02:50:18,440 --> 02:50:23,600 Speaker 1: viewed the McDonald situation that I spoke on earlier. The 2992 02:50:23,720 --> 02:50:28,000 Speaker 1: father brings some McDonald over to the house for his 2993 02:50:28,080 --> 02:50:30,400 Speaker 1: kid and not the other kids. I already gave my 2994 02:50:30,440 --> 02:50:32,840 Speaker 1: opinion on that, so I won't reiterate it. But I 2995 02:50:32,920 --> 02:50:35,280 Speaker 1: just took a look at the coach and I see 2996 02:50:35,320 --> 02:50:38,560 Speaker 1: that Miracle watch respectfully the heart Tyler period, whatever that 2997 02:50:38,680 --> 02:50:41,640 Speaker 1: situation is. But I see them going at it about 2998 02:50:41,720 --> 02:50:45,240 Speaker 1: her claiming the kids. So in our culture, they get 2999 02:50:45,320 --> 02:50:49,400 Speaker 1: at you for not bringing the kids food. On one side, right, 3000 02:50:49,440 --> 02:50:51,680 Speaker 1: you didn't clink, you didn't help the kids, or you 3001 02:50:51,720 --> 02:50:54,720 Speaker 1: didn't put them in a position to eat as well 3002 02:50:54,840 --> 02:50:57,240 Speaker 1: as you should have thought about all the children as 3003 02:50:57,280 --> 02:51:00,480 Speaker 1: a whole. Right, So they criticize you on that for that. 3004 02:51:00,520 --> 02:51:02,920 Speaker 1: And then Miracle wats is over here saying that, yo, 3005 02:51:03,280 --> 02:51:06,720 Speaker 1: I embrace these children, and she get criticized for that. Now, 3006 02:51:07,080 --> 02:51:09,480 Speaker 1: I don't know how to feel about people claiming other 3007 02:51:09,520 --> 02:51:13,040 Speaker 1: people's children. That's not my cup of tea right in 3008 02:51:13,080 --> 02:51:16,600 Speaker 1: regards to love his love, But sometimes there's boundaries in 3009 02:51:16,720 --> 02:51:19,920 Speaker 1: place in regards to children that seem to become invisible 3010 02:51:19,959 --> 02:51:27,039 Speaker 1: when the relationship subsides. In my opinion, people become childish, 3011 02:51:27,120 --> 02:51:29,840 Speaker 1: right sometimes, And this is no longer about them. We're 3012 02:51:29,840 --> 02:51:33,520 Speaker 1: just dealing with the information. This is just giving something 3013 02:51:33,600 --> 02:51:36,360 Speaker 1: to talk about. But people become childish in regards to 3014 02:51:36,400 --> 02:51:39,120 Speaker 1: the children, right, Sometimes it's all they got left in 3015 02:51:39,160 --> 02:51:42,560 Speaker 1: regards to He loved his child, so I'm gonna step 3016 02:51:42,600 --> 02:51:45,080 Speaker 1: on his toes by doing this with his child, or 3017 02:51:45,120 --> 02:51:47,680 Speaker 1: doing this with her child, or and see, that's where 3018 02:51:47,680 --> 02:51:50,640 Speaker 1: it gets weird, because it gets bleary. But when you're 3019 02:51:50,640 --> 02:51:53,320 Speaker 1: a gangster, you just say, yo, chalk it up. That's 3020 02:51:53,360 --> 02:51:56,640 Speaker 1: an ill, right. If I'm no longer in a position 3021 02:51:56,680 --> 02:51:59,280 Speaker 1: to why I can control that because we didn't work 3022 02:51:59,320 --> 02:52:02,400 Speaker 1: for whatever is and whatever happened long, it's down bar them. 3023 02:52:02,959 --> 02:52:05,280 Speaker 1: It's just an l It's a bad move. And I 3024 02:52:05,360 --> 02:52:07,959 Speaker 1: view it every time I see a different thing. Boy, 3025 02:52:08,000 --> 02:52:09,560 Speaker 1: you made that was that was a hell of a 3026 02:52:09,640 --> 02:52:13,400 Speaker 1: decision you made right there, Right, So I come constantly 3027 02:52:13,480 --> 02:52:16,360 Speaker 1: learned by staying away from it but viewing it and 3028 02:52:16,520 --> 02:52:19,000 Speaker 1: interpreting what I know to be the case. Right. So 3029 02:52:19,080 --> 02:52:21,960 Speaker 1: I'm saying, damn, boy, you didn't see none of that coming. 3030 02:52:22,080 --> 02:52:25,039 Speaker 1: Oh Oh they've done that too. Oh they done. They 3031 02:52:25,120 --> 02:52:28,359 Speaker 1: no longer can hurt you, but you can still identify 3032 02:52:28,400 --> 02:52:33,640 Speaker 1: the attributes, right, so you try you do that, but um, 3033 02:52:33,680 --> 02:52:36,879 Speaker 1: sometimes people are still emotionally involved, right, so they still 3034 02:52:36,879 --> 02:52:41,680 Speaker 1: are snapping, do different things if those things occur. And 3035 02:52:42,879 --> 02:52:45,040 Speaker 1: I just hate that the culture can't make make his 3036 02:52:45,200 --> 02:52:48,840 Speaker 1: mind up because there's no rules. There's no handbook on parenting. Really, 3037 02:52:49,240 --> 02:52:52,240 Speaker 1: you know again, I spoke my piece on on that 3038 02:52:52,320 --> 02:52:55,720 Speaker 1: whole situation, but it's just like there's no rules as 3039 02:52:55,760 --> 02:52:59,560 Speaker 1: to none of this. Even with relationships, there ain't really 3040 02:52:59,600 --> 02:53:02,280 Speaker 1: no rule. It's about what work for you. But I 3041 02:53:02,360 --> 02:53:04,879 Speaker 1: know that most men want you to be nice, want 3042 02:53:04,920 --> 02:53:08,119 Speaker 1: you to be a certain type woman, won't you did 3043 02:53:08,160 --> 02:53:11,240 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Dudes have expectations, And if we start 3044 02:53:11,320 --> 02:53:14,560 Speaker 1: to say you shouldn't have expectations, I think that man 3045 02:53:14,560 --> 02:53:19,879 Speaker 1: what they have said, just accept anything. And and for me, 3046 02:53:20,000 --> 02:53:22,320 Speaker 1: Brittany Renner and I want to speak on this really 3047 02:53:22,400 --> 02:53:24,640 Speaker 1: quick before we move on to give y'all a good 3048 02:53:24,680 --> 02:53:27,800 Speaker 1: part today. But for me, Britnany Renner is caught in 3049 02:53:27,800 --> 02:53:30,879 Speaker 1: this weird place right where she's she gets a lot 3050 02:53:30,879 --> 02:53:34,640 Speaker 1: of attraction for going against the grain, or for attacking men, 3051 02:53:34,879 --> 02:53:37,240 Speaker 1: or for just being that other side of the street 3052 02:53:37,320 --> 02:53:39,600 Speaker 1: or other side of the story to the point where 3053 02:53:40,160 --> 02:53:44,760 Speaker 1: the audience is controlling her, her effect on or her 3054 02:53:44,879 --> 02:53:48,120 Speaker 1: ability to get that kind of attraction only probably will 3055 02:53:48,160 --> 02:53:52,760 Speaker 1: come when she speak against the grain right and identified 3056 02:53:52,920 --> 02:53:54,800 Speaker 1: in a way where me and a week and they 3057 02:53:54,840 --> 02:53:59,320 Speaker 1: want to take advantage, because in my opinion, we don't. 3058 02:53:59,360 --> 02:54:03,560 Speaker 1: Every time you're running, you get it going every topic. 3059 02:54:03,600 --> 02:54:06,160 Speaker 1: It's this weird thing you're doing. Every time men do 3060 02:54:06,320 --> 02:54:08,879 Speaker 1: something that's a relationship, it's a weird it's a weird 3061 02:54:08,959 --> 02:54:12,400 Speaker 1: thing happening. I want to speak about black media real quick, man, 3062 02:54:12,440 --> 02:54:15,840 Speaker 1: because again I don't speak enough about us doing or 3063 02:54:15,879 --> 02:54:18,320 Speaker 1: what we're doing. Right. I think I'm one of the 3064 02:54:18,360 --> 02:54:21,200 Speaker 1: loudest voices about black media in a way where I'm 3065 02:54:21,240 --> 02:54:24,039 Speaker 1: trying to say, Yo, look at the podcasting world, look 3066 02:54:24,040 --> 02:54:25,880 Speaker 1: at this world, Look at that word, how we do it? 3067 02:54:25,920 --> 02:54:27,840 Speaker 1: Look at how he's speaking. He shouldn't be doing it 3068 02:54:27,920 --> 02:54:30,360 Speaker 1: like that, or if you really was paying attention to 3069 02:54:30,480 --> 02:54:32,560 Speaker 1: how he did it, man, da dada, You know, I'm 3070 02:54:32,560 --> 02:54:34,480 Speaker 1: just trying to get a game. What the game ain't 3071 02:54:34,480 --> 02:54:37,960 Speaker 1: never had you understand. But I want to say this. 3072 02:54:38,240 --> 02:54:41,840 Speaker 1: I took a look at the Rory and Mall speak 3073 02:54:41,879 --> 02:54:45,560 Speaker 1: to logic, right, I've seen Joe Button on one of 3074 02:54:45,600 --> 02:54:48,680 Speaker 1: the podcasts play something and I didn't know it's from 3075 02:54:48,760 --> 02:54:51,000 Speaker 1: Rory and Mall, but it was logic talking ended up 3076 02:54:51,000 --> 02:54:53,360 Speaker 1: bleeping out some of it, but that was then ended 3077 02:54:53,440 --> 02:54:55,360 Speaker 1: up being with Rory and Mall and out of one 3078 02:54:55,400 --> 02:54:59,320 Speaker 1: of their podcasts. Actually listen to it. I'm like, Oh, 3079 02:54:59,400 --> 02:55:03,720 Speaker 1: they didn't call stride over them on Joe Budden respectfully 3080 02:55:03,720 --> 02:55:06,720 Speaker 1: though they they they ain't. They ain't slipping over there. 3081 02:55:06,720 --> 02:55:09,720 Speaker 1: They sounding good, you know, they backed part and you know, 3082 02:55:09,760 --> 02:55:12,000 Speaker 1: at first I was like, oh they slipping over there. 3083 02:55:12,720 --> 02:55:15,119 Speaker 1: Looked like they slipping a little bit, but they doesn't. 3084 02:55:15,160 --> 02:55:17,359 Speaker 1: I looked at that logic and that was a good interview, 3085 02:55:17,680 --> 02:55:19,080 Speaker 1: you know, And so I want to put that in 3086 02:55:19,120 --> 02:55:23,240 Speaker 1: the atmosphere because I think I always you know, when 3087 02:55:23,320 --> 02:55:25,959 Speaker 1: they were with Joe and they split, I was critical 3088 02:55:25,959 --> 02:55:28,199 Speaker 1: of them and trying to pay attention to them because 3089 02:55:28,240 --> 02:55:31,240 Speaker 1: I didn't want this to happen and JBP. You know, 3090 02:55:31,320 --> 02:55:33,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot going on over there that I can 3091 02:55:33,240 --> 02:55:35,320 Speaker 1: speak about it that I want to speak about writing, 3092 02:55:35,440 --> 02:55:38,800 Speaker 1: just dissect what I see happening. There's a lot happening 3093 02:55:38,879 --> 02:55:42,039 Speaker 1: them over there. But when Rory and Mall and them 3094 02:55:42,520 --> 02:55:45,880 Speaker 1: got away from Joe, I was watching them because again 3095 02:55:45,920 --> 02:55:48,199 Speaker 1: I just dissect the whole game, and I was watching 3096 02:55:48,200 --> 02:55:50,600 Speaker 1: what they were doing, and I thought like, oh my god, 3097 02:55:50,600 --> 02:55:55,119 Speaker 1: it seemed like they ain't. But they stepped into their 3098 02:55:54,720 --> 02:55:58,120 Speaker 1: to their role as part as in this space, like 3099 02:55:58,200 --> 02:56:01,440 Speaker 1: they need to be mentioned on the list, and where 3100 02:56:01,440 --> 02:56:03,440 Speaker 1: you put them on the list is up to you, right, 3101 02:56:03,959 --> 02:56:06,680 Speaker 1: but they definitely need to be in the conversation now, 3102 02:56:06,760 --> 02:56:09,920 Speaker 1: academics that with Candice owns and Accor is finding this 3103 02:56:10,080 --> 02:56:12,160 Speaker 1: groove over there and trying to get this thing together, 3104 02:56:12,240 --> 02:56:15,800 Speaker 1: but Candice. He can't handle Candice. He doesn't really know 3105 02:56:16,000 --> 02:56:19,080 Speaker 1: enough about it, and he's not gonna really step out 3106 02:56:19,120 --> 02:56:22,080 Speaker 1: and really challenge anything because he doesn't have the information 3107 02:56:22,160 --> 02:56:24,879 Speaker 1: for real. So he's gonna constantly play, oh for real, 3108 02:56:24,959 --> 02:56:27,000 Speaker 1: Oh that's the number they come up with, Oh that's 3109 02:56:27,040 --> 02:56:29,400 Speaker 1: the Oh my god, that's what they're saying, Like he's 3110 02:56:29,440 --> 02:56:31,920 Speaker 1: gonna play that role instead of getting the information now, 3111 02:56:32,320 --> 02:56:35,880 Speaker 1: and I think that does a disservice to his audience. Right. 3112 02:56:35,959 --> 02:56:38,320 Speaker 1: You gotta dig in, bro y'all gotta take this shiit 3113 02:56:38,480 --> 02:56:42,039 Speaker 1: serious or I'm I'm gonna eating food like or not 3114 02:56:42,160 --> 02:56:45,879 Speaker 1: even me my prototype guys like me that's coming into 3115 02:56:45,920 --> 02:56:48,959 Speaker 1: the field, they're gonna eat your food. You ain't taking 3116 02:56:49,000 --> 02:56:52,920 Speaker 1: this serious, man, you know, but seeing this game, that's 3117 02:56:52,959 --> 02:56:55,080 Speaker 1: why you gotta find your own stride. And that's why 3118 02:56:55,080 --> 02:56:57,640 Speaker 1: I'm glad I found my stride. And that just your 3119 02:56:57,680 --> 02:57:00,160 Speaker 1: approach to part and your approach to how you get 3120 02:57:00,200 --> 02:57:02,960 Speaker 1: your information out what you want to talk about right, 3121 02:57:03,120 --> 02:57:05,280 Speaker 1: being comfortable in front of the camera, in the room 3122 02:57:05,320 --> 02:57:08,400 Speaker 1: full of people talking right. Just certain things you gotta 3123 02:57:08,440 --> 02:57:10,560 Speaker 1: be able to do right. I think k is great 3124 02:57:10,600 --> 02:57:12,920 Speaker 1: at what he does in regards to those six eight 3125 02:57:12,959 --> 02:57:18,440 Speaker 1: mini clips, those news informational kind of clips about commentary, 3126 02:57:18,560 --> 02:57:20,760 Speaker 1: hip hop commentary. I think he's great at that and 3127 02:57:20,920 --> 02:57:24,160 Speaker 1: podcasting he had. He just got to find his group right. 3128 02:57:24,600 --> 02:57:27,360 Speaker 1: And you can't copy anyone. So you can't copy what 3129 02:57:27,480 --> 02:57:30,160 Speaker 1: Joe does or what Charlemagne does, or what Loon does, 3130 02:57:30,280 --> 02:57:32,680 Speaker 1: or what Bank does or what earn your lead. You 3131 02:57:32,720 --> 02:57:35,920 Speaker 1: can't copy what nobody do because you don't. You may 3132 02:57:36,000 --> 02:57:38,720 Speaker 1: can't live at that address. This happened so quick as 3133 02:57:38,760 --> 02:57:41,400 Speaker 1: you talking like you can hear somebody to take somebody 3134 02:57:41,520 --> 02:57:44,000 Speaker 1: talking point unless you put the work in. You can 3135 02:57:44,080 --> 02:57:47,560 Speaker 1: hear somebody take someone's talking point, and they can't. They 3136 02:57:47,640 --> 02:57:51,040 Speaker 1: lay flat, they can't dive deep into it because they 3137 02:57:51,040 --> 02:57:53,360 Speaker 1: didn't come up with it. So you gotta be prepared. 3138 02:57:53,400 --> 02:57:56,400 Speaker 1: If you sitting next to candy zowns like we reached 3139 02:57:56,400 --> 02:57:58,200 Speaker 1: out to help people like I want to sit next 3140 02:57:58,200 --> 02:58:00,360 Speaker 1: to Candid's owners.

It 3147 02:58:20,120 --> 02:58:22,360 Speaker 1: just again, you gotta find your groove in this game. 3148 02:58:22,440 --> 02:58:25,480 Speaker 1: And it gets hard. It gets hard because you got 3149 02:58:25,560 --> 02:58:28,040 Speaker 1: an interview today one Tuesday, you travel to due as 3150 02:58:28,080 --> 02:58:30,520 Speaker 1: you go because I remember on my earned your Lesion interview, 3151 02:58:31,200 --> 02:58:34,360 Speaker 1: I'm so bummed out about New York.

I want 3183 03:00:05,879 --> 03:00:08,800 Speaker 1: to take some time to speaking up podcasting in black 3184 03:00:08,920 --> 03:00:11,279 Speaker 1: media and give a shout out to twenty one Savage. 3185 03:00:11,879 --> 03:00:14,840 Speaker 1: Savage been jumping on these podcasts instead of going to 3186 03:00:14,959 --> 03:00:17,840 Speaker 1: these big platforms, and I think that they're so important 3187 03:00:17,879 --> 03:00:20,680 Speaker 1: not only for the content creator, but just for the 3188 03:00:20,800 --> 03:00:23,920 Speaker 1: market and him being able to speak to what he 3189 03:00:24,080 --> 03:00:27,200 Speaker 1: knows to be the truth. You know, he's dealing with 3190 03:00:27,240 --> 03:00:29,520 Speaker 1: the specifics. You're dealing with a guy that's been through 3191 03:00:29,560 --> 03:00:31,640 Speaker 1: a lot in this industry and being able to stand 3192 03:00:31,720 --> 03:00:34,600 Speaker 1: next to and stand by everything that he came in 3193 03:00:34,680 --> 03:00:37,959 Speaker 1: the game on. I was listening to music, explained some 3194 03:00:38,040 --> 03:00:41,080 Speaker 1: of his attributes, some of his accomplishments. Again, it gets 3195 03:00:41,080 --> 03:00:44,680 Speaker 1: blurry from these up North guys their perspective on some 3196 03:00:44,720 --> 03:00:47,120 Speaker 1: of these things in regards to the accolades and the 3197 03:00:47,240 --> 03:00:51,640 Speaker 1: position of things. It's just they have a revisionist history sometimes. 3198 03:00:52,080 --> 03:00:54,520 Speaker 1: And I'm not talking about the fans up North. I'm 3199 03:00:54,560 --> 03:00:58,200 Speaker 1: speaking specifically on media and how it's framed a lot 3200 03:00:58,240 --> 03:01:01,280 Speaker 1: of times they'll speak like I remember, and I like 3201 03:01:01,440 --> 03:01:03,760 Speaker 1: Joe Buddon, but I remember looking at Joe Budden and 3202 03:01:03,840 --> 03:01:06,760 Speaker 1: Little Baby interview, and I can see the distance between 3203 03:01:06,800 --> 03:01:10,800 Speaker 1: their understanding, the distance between their talk and the distance 3204 03:01:10,879 --> 03:01:14,760 Speaker 1: it was distance in the building. Right. Still turned out 3205 03:01:14,800 --> 03:01:17,160 Speaker 1: to be a good interview because he is him and 3206 03:01:17,240 --> 03:01:19,720 Speaker 1: Baby is him. Baby Still was able to get some 3207 03:01:19,800 --> 03:01:22,440 Speaker 1: information nowt but sometimes he was talking it was just 3208 03:01:22,480 --> 03:01:26,040 Speaker 1: a disconnect, not because we ain't up the same culture, 3209 03:01:26,320 --> 03:01:29,879 Speaker 1: because we definitely are the same culture, but it's subcategories 3210 03:01:29,920 --> 03:01:32,720 Speaker 1: of the culture, right, And when we talk about the South, 3211 03:01:32,840 --> 03:01:36,119 Speaker 1: sometimes when people speak about it, I just don't seem 3212 03:01:36,200 --> 03:01:39,000 Speaker 1: like our flowers its blossomed in the way that I 3213 03:01:39,080 --> 03:01:41,440 Speaker 1: want them to be. Right, And so I think we're 3214 03:01:41,480 --> 03:01:43,720 Speaker 1: instrumental in the South with media, And that's why I 3215 03:01:43,760 --> 03:01:46,600 Speaker 1: want to spend some time on savage savage goals on 3216 03:01:46,680 --> 03:01:49,840 Speaker 1: these media platforms right where he can resonate with people 3217 03:01:49,879 --> 03:01:53,560 Speaker 1: from a different way. Sometimes you can only get that 3218 03:01:53,720 --> 03:01:58,000 Speaker 1: kind of interview. From that kind of interview, you understand me. 3219 03:01:58,120 --> 03:02:01,240 Speaker 1: And when you're able to position you self and understand that, 3220 03:02:01,320 --> 03:02:04,320 Speaker 1: I can go in any room and put this game down, Right, 3221 03:02:04,360 --> 03:02:07,080 Speaker 1: I can sit next to Jimmy Fallon and go how 3222 03:02:07,280 --> 03:02:09,600 Speaker 1: led loon on this up their podcasts and both of 3223 03:02:09,600 --> 03:02:12,320 Speaker 1: those interviews be effective for what they're supposed to be 3224 03:02:12,360 --> 03:02:15,560 Speaker 1: effective for. Right, And so I want to give some 3225 03:02:15,560 --> 03:02:20,200 Speaker 1: some appreciation home for always sticking by the culture. Right. 3226 03:02:20,240 --> 03:02:22,400 Speaker 1: I think he was one of the first ones on 3227 03:02:22,600 --> 03:02:26,640 Speaker 1: getting them that really put a bunch of game out 3228 03:02:26,680 --> 03:02:28,640 Speaker 1: and allowed them to get a lot of clips to 3229 03:02:28,959 --> 03:02:31,960 Speaker 1: move around. Right. He just did math, which was a 3230 03:02:32,000 --> 03:02:33,959 Speaker 1: big deal. You know what I'm saying. Got a tick 3231 03:02:34,080 --> 03:02:37,560 Speaker 1: from Jay about a math hop for interview. Right, these 3232 03:02:37,560 --> 03:02:40,200 Speaker 1: things are important, But a lot of these dudes they 3233 03:02:40,200 --> 03:02:42,840 Speaker 1: ain't gonna do that. They think the numbers ain't big 3234 03:02:42,920 --> 03:02:45,360 Speaker 1: enough for it. Ain't that guy. And that's when you know, 3235 03:02:45,440 --> 03:02:49,200 Speaker 1: if you come from this or you just playing. A 3236 03:02:49,240 --> 03:02:52,560 Speaker 1: lot of these is just playing. You're looking for him 3237 03:02:52,600 --> 03:02:55,000 Speaker 1: to be real. You're looking for him to be gangs. 3238 03:02:55,120 --> 03:02:57,760 Speaker 1: That's why I say, man, you be careful on to 3239 03:02:57,800 --> 03:03:02,920 Speaker 1: meet these be pooling man, you be careful of woman. Man. 3240 03:03:02,959 --> 03:03:05,320 Speaker 1: I can't wait to meet Bro. Man, Bron Man Bro 3241 03:03:05,560 --> 03:03:07,720 Speaker 1: real Man, I can't wait to meet Bro. You're gonna 3242 03:03:07,760 --> 03:03:10,800 Speaker 1: meet Bro and you're gonna go home disappointing. But in 3243 03:03:10,920 --> 03:03:13,920 Speaker 1: my eyes see it differently, Like I can't see a 3244 03:03:14,040 --> 03:03:17,240 Speaker 1: man working hard as I'm working. I'm in position and 3245 03:03:17,320 --> 03:03:21,640 Speaker 1: I won't help to do I just that night, I 3246 03:03:21,680 --> 03:03:24,600 Speaker 1: ain't telling by somebody of this half pard and he 3247 03:03:24,760 --> 03:03:28,480 Speaker 1: half putting it together, he half getting it going. This 3248 03:03:28,600 --> 03:03:34,920 Speaker 1: dude here consistently putting it down for me bro it again, 3249 03:03:34,959 --> 03:03:38,199 Speaker 1: it gets disappointed as you get closer to it, because 3250 03:03:38,240 --> 03:03:40,920 Speaker 1: if you're looking for these industries to be real, I 3251 03:03:41,040 --> 03:03:43,360 Speaker 1: just told y'all, it's like looking for a black cat 3252 03:03:43,440 --> 03:03:46,840 Speaker 1: in the dark room. Gonna be hard to see and 3253 03:03:46,920 --> 03:03:49,879 Speaker 1: he might be in here, but you just never know, 3254 03:03:50,080 --> 03:03:55,039 Speaker 1: because again, all this game is about selling your relationships. 3255 03:03:55,600 --> 03:03:57,840 Speaker 1: A lot of these relationships are for sale. I just 3256 03:03:58,240 --> 03:03:59,960 Speaker 1: speaking to y'all about it. You can buy your way 3257 03:04:00,160 --> 03:04:03,360 Speaker 1: close to one knee reblem right. A lot of time, Bro, 3258 03:04:03,440 --> 03:04:06,520 Speaker 1: if I had, like Dick Gregory was alive. Man, I'll 3259 03:04:06,560 --> 03:04:10,040 Speaker 1: pay him to stay next to me. Man, some of 3260 03:04:10,040 --> 03:04:12,560 Speaker 1: these type minds I pay. I'll pay them dudes to 3261 03:04:12,600 --> 03:04:15,760 Speaker 1: stay next to me. Man, what is this look at life? 3262 03:04:15,879 --> 03:04:18,920 Speaker 1: Pay him man, get him around me. Man. That dude 3263 03:04:18,920 --> 03:04:22,160 Speaker 1: can evolve me in a way that's very specific. You 3264 03:04:22,280 --> 03:04:25,800 Speaker 1: understand just the outlook, right, because it's all about problem solving. 3265 03:04:25,879 --> 03:04:29,040 Speaker 1: But in our culture we look down on uplifting, but 3266 03:04:29,120 --> 03:04:32,960 Speaker 1: we talk black excellence. That's why I get confusing. But 3267 03:04:33,080 --> 03:04:35,840 Speaker 1: I had to tell my kids, keep your eyes open 3268 03:04:35,879 --> 03:04:39,040 Speaker 1: and don't be afraid the ads. Don't be afraid, you know, 3269 03:04:39,080 --> 03:04:43,080 Speaker 1: don't be scared of love because I'm identifying that it 3270 03:04:43,120 --> 03:04:45,400 Speaker 1: ain't as easy as they said to be. But it 3271 03:04:45,440 --> 03:04:47,720 Speaker 1: is people out there that's doing that. It is people 3272 03:04:47,720 --> 03:04:50,320 Speaker 1: out there that's furthering each other and helping each other 3273 03:04:50,360 --> 03:04:54,080 Speaker 1: without mentioning a good deed is worthless and useless after 3274 03:04:54,120 --> 03:04:57,040 Speaker 1: it's mentioned. I mean, there, y'all have done something behind 3275 03:04:57,080 --> 03:05:00,000 Speaker 1: the scenes and springboarded someone and putting people in position. 3276 03:05:00,600 --> 03:05:03,840 Speaker 1: Every time I'm on the phone with somebody about podcasting, 3277 03:05:04,600 --> 03:05:07,280 Speaker 1: I tell you, no, Lie, Rishard may be the only 3278 03:05:07,320 --> 03:05:10,160 Speaker 1: guy in the game.
