Speaker 3: definitely should have cast you in one of them. Dann
Speaker 3: plays thank You, so she'll be on my share list forever.
Speaker 3: I had a theater teacher like that. I did get
Speaker 3: cash b never get like the main role, but that
Speaker 3: shows her. I'm the only professional actor out of that
Speaker 3: damn school. So you know, adversity ever.
Speaker 2: They do it to us, You know they do it
Speaker 2: to us. The person who's the lead is never do
Speaker 2: you ever see them anywhere?
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna throw no shade because if I say
Speaker 3: what they're doing right now, then that's shade. But like
Speaker 3: they're definitely not working in the industry. But you know what,
Speaker 3: that's fine. I played my big parts to the best
Speaker 3: of my ability, and I didn't won awards for them,
Speaker 3: so I was like, y'all.
Speaker 1: Can't hold me back, y'all can't hold me down.
Speaker 3: But I did also have to work in the like
Speaker 3: set department as well, like you like doing tech work
Speaker 3: sometimes exactly I know how to work a circular saw
Speaker 3: not well, but you know, they let me.
Speaker 4: So I know how to sell. You know how to
Speaker 4: do the things.
Speaker 3: I know which prop's going on, which prop table? Okay,
Speaker 3: and now I'm working entertainment. So y'all lost? I want anyways, No,
Speaker 3: but I really loved your book. It was very nostalgic
Speaker 3: for me, just like going through all these like historical
Speaker 3: pop culture moments of kind of seeing them through your
Speaker 3: lens of like growing up as a youth.
Speaker 1: And so it was really fine. What made you want
Speaker 1: to write this book?
Speaker 2: Well, I feel like I've always wanted to write some
Speaker 2: form of a book. When I was a kid, I
Speaker 2: thought I was going to write my own goosebumps because.
Speaker 1: You was on forums forums.
Speaker 4: Maybe I was. I was.
Speaker 2: I love goosebas I was writing on the Buffy forums,
Speaker 2: I was doing fanfic. I thought I was going to
Speaker 2: write either that. I was going to write, you know,
Speaker 2: some Fear Street books, some Christopher Pike, like I would
Speaker 2: have even written my own like Hunger Games or something,
Speaker 2: you know, But okay, no, I went to school for
Speaker 2: theater and then I started working in TV in La
Speaker 2: So I think all that stuff like gets away from you.
Speaker 2: You know what It's like, you know, you're doing something
Speaker 2: for so long and then you sort of you don't
Speaker 2: have time to do everything else if you're trying to
Speaker 2: do it well, you know, but I'm going to take
Speaker 2: you right on back to this little thing called COVID
Speaker 2: and then the writers right.
Speaker 4: Back to back.
Speaker 1: So it took the writers out the game.
Speaker 3: People didn't realize, like the recovery after the writer strike
Speaker 3: was not like, oh yay, we have to pick a line,
Speaker 3: everybody go back to work. It was like, now everybody
Speaker 3: going write their own show by themselves. What's going on?
Speaker 1: Where to rooms?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I'm on the other side of the game.
Speaker 4: In the bookstore. So that is what happened to me.
Speaker 2: I was just, I don't know, reading one of my
Speaker 2: favorite books, Sex Shows and Cocoa Puffs, which was sort
Speaker 2: of by Chuck Close to Men. Very formative to me
Speaker 2: for falling in love with pop culture criticism and got
Speaker 2: me into writing it, you know, for like GQ, New
Speaker 2: York Magazine, BuzzFeed, et cetera. And I was rereading it
Speaker 2: when we were in lockdown, and I was like, this
Speaker 2: is this is something I can write actually, you know.
Speaker 2: It was just a longer form version of what I've
Speaker 2: been writing for magazines and websites, and so I was like,
Speaker 2: get in on that was.
Speaker 1: To do it right?
Speaker 4: I did.
Speaker 1: I went, that's the writery.
Speaker 3: Of you to like go to a remote European city
Speaker 3: and write your book. I just imagine you're having so
Speaker 3: many coffees and like staring out the window and having
Speaker 3: a typewriter, like an old school typewriter.
Speaker 2: Yes, I like a little I like a little writer's vacation,
Speaker 2: you know. I think everyone tries to have their little
Speaker 2: bald one or something moment. But I just I can't
Speaker 2: really write at home. I think since since you know
Speaker 2: COVID and everything, it's once I started recording the podcast
Speaker 2: at home exclusively, and then all of my other work
Speaker 2: I do is at home too.
Speaker 4: You know. It's it's so hard for me to just
Speaker 4: write in.
Speaker 1: So we need to change the scenery.
Speaker 2: You need to change the scenery, you know. So I
Speaker 2: put in the back. Actually I put everywhere that I
Speaker 2: wrote the book. You know, I wrote it on Fire
Speaker 2: Island during the summer. I wrote it.
Speaker 1: Now, how we write on Fire Island?
Speaker 3: I know there was a lot of parties going on,
Speaker 3: and well, now listen, that's not was that.
Speaker 1: The os which I feel out so.
Speaker 3: Wheel out over here inks of paper and asked the
Speaker 3: gays press their hot came and next to each other.
Speaker 3: I couldn't help but wonder, like, sir, to be serious.
Speaker 2: It's when you go, it's for a share for the
Speaker 2: whole week, you know. And so my friends have real jobs,
Speaker 2: and most of them do. And when during the day
Speaker 2: when they'd be you know, I was doing my work
Speaker 2: from home too, you know.
Speaker 1: Okay, classy, classy.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: Also, I interviewed Nicole Kidman on Zoom.
Speaker 4: Like last year for Officielle. For the magazine cover.
Speaker 2: I did a profile I did of her last year
Speaker 2: from my Fire Island Hollows Girl.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's very cloy.
Speaker 3: And I love like, I love your love for Nicki
Speaker 3: Kidmen and when you talk about her in the book,
Speaker 3: because I also do have a deep love for Nicky
Speaker 3: cadm In and I do think it's funny that her
Speaker 3: and Tom Cruise divorced, but then they came back together
Speaker 3: to bring movies back in their own ways. I was like,
Speaker 3: there's nothing a lot of place like this, and then
Speaker 3: time Cruise was like, I'm gonna jump off every building.
Speaker 3: Y'all come get back in these movies. I'm jumping off
Speaker 3: all these builders. I'm trying to kill myself. Watch it
Speaker 3: a four K and you know they did a great job. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So we always ask on this on these podcasts. What's
Speaker 3: your relationships to scams?
Speaker 1: Have you been scammed?
Speaker 3: Have you run any It could be anything recent, anything
Speaker 3: in the zeitgeist that's really gravitated.
Speaker 4: Attention, baby, I've running a scam right now.
Speaker 1: Oh whoa. We love activity.
Speaker 2: Now you'll have to describe it for your listeners, you know,
Speaker 2: but look at this.
Speaker 3: Oh wait a minute, these glasses I ron, I thought
Speaker 3: these glasses were foreseeing.
Speaker 1: They're just being seen now. Girl.
Speaker 2: I got Lasa Good twenty and everyone who knew me
Speaker 2: prior to that used to wore I wore glasses.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: I never was a contact person. I was I could
Speaker 2: not get the contacting girl. So I was never a
Speaker 2: contacts person. And after like the Lasik, I got used
Speaker 2: to like b you know, my face without the glasses.
Speaker 4: But there was a certain.
Speaker 2: Point last year or so where I found you know,
Speaker 2: those like black like big black like Luave sunglasses.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 2: I found somebody was selling a pair in Times Square
Speaker 2: ten dollars. Ten dollars, Yeah, ten dollars. Bought it. Bought it.
Speaker 2: But then I was going to an event and I
Speaker 2: was like, sometimes you know, you can like do the
Speaker 2: like little chic wearing a sunglasses at the event thing,
Speaker 2: but I was like I didn't really look good good
Speaker 2: for like the outfit or the event. And then they
Speaker 2: were on ten dollars, so I popped the lenses out
Speaker 2: and these were chunkier, so it was giving you know,
Speaker 2: like Dwayne Wade was giving a different world like nineties
Speaker 2: like black cheek, and my friends are like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: I love these, and ever since then, I love a
Speaker 2: fake glasses a twenty vision.
Speaker 1: But then realizing like glasses really give me that wreath, so.
Speaker 4: I'm wearing the off theor vibe, you know.
Speaker 2: And also the other scam too was this girl saw
Speaker 2: me at this event and she was like, wait, luay.
Speaker 4: They came up with the sa eye glasses for.
Speaker 2: Them, and I was and I was like, and I
Speaker 2: was like, yeah, baby, fresh off the runway.

Speaker 3: got these passion week.
Speaker 1: Okay. They were throwing them at Mercedes Minz and I
Speaker 1: call up here.
Speaker 2: But just like New York, I thought I'd never see
Speaker 2: this girl again, right, keep running into her at other things,
Speaker 2: and she would like tell people, She'd be like, he
Speaker 2: got like the the way they glass.
Speaker 4: I'm like, girl, enough, Now you gotta.
Speaker 1: Go with the bit. Now you gotta go with the bit.
Speaker 3: You gotta tell everybody you called him at Mercedespis Fashion.
Speaker 3: We Kylie Jenner ripped them off her face and you
Speaker 3: were like, thank you, miss Mama's. I also loved like
Speaker 3: having twenty twenty vision and still wearing glasses.
Speaker 1: For the bit, for the vibes. They do look good.
Speaker 3: And you were the few people that I know who's
Speaker 3: had lasik that they didn't have any trouble with it.
Speaker 1: So that's good too, a blessing for your.
Speaker 3: Corneas because you notice said the girls who were getting
Speaker 3: lasik were going down bad. They yeah, like a lot
Speaker 3: of times, like if it's done wrong, like your eyes
Speaker 3: hurt forever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen I'm blanking on the basketball player's name because
Speaker 2: I don't know NBA. But I got I got my
Speaker 2: Lasik back when I was still in LA and I
Speaker 2: went to I did my research. I went to this
Speaker 2: doctor in Bevery Hills who had like done some celebrities eyes.
Speaker 2: So I was like, if he ain't, if he ain't
Speaker 2: sucking up the eyes for now of the stars of
Speaker 2: the stars, then I'm good.
Speaker 1: So you went to the right place.
Speaker 3: I think a lot was away, so the places that
Speaker 3: were advertised online. I remember I was in Texas and
Speaker 3: there was always this laser guy, doctor Booth, and he
Speaker 3: had a very strong Texas accent, and what my name is,
Speaker 3: doctor Booth, And I'll do your lea sick for you.
Speaker 3: I'll cut youry real good. And just felt like you
Speaker 3: should not be getting bastick from doctor Booth. No shade
Speaker 3: doctor moved out there. I just felt like he was
Speaker 3: a little too country witty.
Speaker 4: The girls do that, and it's like it's like.
Speaker 3: Get a BBL in Miami, like Dominican Republic. I'm like, no,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 1: I need to go to the best case in point.
Speaker 2: There were some people in New York recently who joined
Speaker 2: a class action lawsuit against this uh doctor who turned
Speaker 2: out he was giving fake botox you know, to people.
Speaker 4: For two things about that.
Speaker 2: One, a friend I know admitted that on Instagram, like
Speaker 2: this is a scam. I'm joining the class action lawsuit
Speaker 2: to accept her. I was like, well, first of all,
Speaker 2: you would never catch me admitting that I got fake
Speaker 2: botox online.
Speaker 1: It are you getting fake b Yeah.
Speaker 2: Just join the class action lawsuit. But you don't need
Speaker 2: to tell people on Instagram. And then two, yes, in
Speaker 2: Hell's Kitchen just.
Speaker 3: Said in Hell's Kitchen Kitchen, girl, ain't nothing good happened?
Speaker 2: Baby, he got a lot of the New York games. Okay,
Speaker 2: he got a lot of them with the fake botox.
Speaker 2: And my other thing too, is one botox is so cheap,
Speaker 2: So why are you going Why are you not going
Speaker 2: to the best of the fast? Right? Why are you're
Speaker 2: not going to the best of the best. And then second,
Speaker 2: back on like the Lasik thing, this is my eyes.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm like, if I'm spending money on getting
Speaker 2: the lay sick, I'm going to the best of the best. Doctor,
Speaker 2: I'm not like, I get that money is tight. However,
Speaker 2: are we back in a New recession again. But if
Speaker 2: you are going to do something like that where if
Speaker 2: if it goes wrong, you go blind, then you need
Speaker 2: to spend the actual money.
Speaker 3: Don't get a group practicians, Allison.
Speaker 1: I go to a nurse who was a nurse. She
Speaker 1: quit during COVID.
Speaker 3: She was like a STU ghetto here and now she's

Speaker 1: In between writing a book.
Speaker 2: Little John used to tell us to get loud. How
Speaker 2: many songs we grew up with where they're like, get
Speaker 2: low okay.
Speaker 3: And we should have better sense than to listen to
Speaker 3: little John. And that's the lesson here, Okay. All he
Speaker 3: was supposed to do was say yeah in the back
Speaker 3: of okay, and that was enough scoff come, So let's
Speaker 3: get into today's episode to keep it in the pop
Speaker 3: culture realm, pure innocent fun. Our expert here, we're gonna
Speaker 3: be talking about something. Y'all have been hit me up
Speaker 3: for a long time. Sean Kingston and his mom. I'm
Speaker 3: a Janis.
Speaker 1: So Sean Kings mister King's son.
Speaker 3: Y'all wait to booy, feel good. That's why I got
Speaker 3: a scam the government. He's like, Oh, I like that better,
Speaker 3: just say you wait to boo that felt good?
Speaker 1: That's why I got a scam.
Speaker 4: No work.
Speaker 3: Yes, So Sean Kingston here and his mama Janis stole
Speaker 3: one million dollars worth of watches, cars, jewelry, and mattresses
Speaker 3: by pretending to pay for them using forged receipts. Now,
Speaker 3: I will say cars, jewelry, Sean King I know you
Speaker 3: had that one song. I know Serena Williams took you
Speaker 3: on a date. At one point you were really living
Speaker 3: the high life. And I haven't heard much from you
Speaker 3: since those days, and I can understand you trying to
Speaker 3: keep up that lifestyle. We're looking at a picture of
Speaker 3: him his mama. He got his mama in some kind
Speaker 3: of rap dress. She looks like, you know, she's getting
Speaker 3: her hair done once a week at the beauty salion.
Speaker 4: She looks a little like, oh Nija, doesn't she respect.
Speaker 1: The law a little bit?
Speaker 4: In respect the law, though.
Speaker 1: Not at all. They were very much disrespecting the law.
Speaker 3: They're they're on a red carpet, but they look like
Speaker 3: they're going to two different places. Like she's got on
Speaker 3: a gown, he's got on some dusty sneakers and a jacket.
Speaker 3: And I don't know where they're going. I guess it's
Speaker 3: just the American musical Leather.
Speaker 4: Leather cargo pants too.
Speaker 1: Oh, leather cargoes are just where did you even find these?
Speaker 2: Sir?
Speaker 1: This is the salt that's good?
Speaker 4: Like I thought.
Speaker 2: I thought all of those were confiscated when the police
Speaker 2: raided the bad Boy of States.
Speaker 4: Like leather cargo pants is so.
Speaker 3: Hey they are, because what are you putting in those
Speaker 3: cargo pants pockets?
Speaker 2: Guns have this and their leather so you're hot, so
Speaker 2: you probably have extra stuff on you.
Speaker 3: So your gun sticking to your thigh through the leather
Speaker 3: pants and it's not given true leather.
Speaker 1: It's yeh, sweaty cheeks says, just sweat ships.
Speaker 3: For sure, like you know, when they use the bathroom,
Speaker 3: like when they pull their pants down, I feel like
Speaker 3: the mirror definitely fogging up just from like the condensation
Speaker 3: coming out of them pants.
Speaker 2: I definitely wors some leather pants was to the cloud
Speaker 2: and the like, trying to get them down the peak
Speaker 2: or trying to get them off when you get a
Speaker 2: home too is couldn't be me.
Speaker 3: That's where you gotta humble yourself and lay down as
Speaker 3: an adult and just peel them off your body. That
Speaker 3: you have to really peel them off slow, like a
Speaker 3: fruit roll up. It's just layers that you gotta get
Speaker 3: off of your body. You know, you get a fruit
Speaker 3: roll up that's been sitting in the store too long ago,
Speaker 3: plastic you gets stuck. That's how leather pants are to
Speaker 3: get off. And I can't imagine if they got this
Speaker 3: many pockets. But you know what Sean King, you were.
Speaker 3: You were giving what the times required of you. I
Speaker 3: do want to say, like cars, watch his jewelry, that's
Speaker 3: all keeping up the famous facade.
Speaker 1: And obviously all we know.
Speaker 3: From Shaan King is beauty for girls. I don't know
Speaker 3: another Sean Kings song.
Speaker 1: Was he an American idol?
Speaker 2: No, that was Ruber's stud I love you keep calling
Speaker 2: it king like the other scammer.
Speaker 3: Oh, I know, Sean Kinston. I'm beginning to mix up.
Speaker 3: I'm beginning to mix up. Sean definitely black Kingston. I'm
Speaker 3: gonna put some respect on his black ass name. But
Speaker 3: like I get, trying to keep up the celebrity lifestyle
Speaker 3: because that begets more success. So if we see Sean
Speaker 3: Kingston at an award show and he's got on his
Speaker 3: tightest leather pants and his mama on his side, we
Speaker 3: might be like, ooh, new music, Sean Kingston preparer. You know,
Speaker 3: maybe so. But the mattress for me is what I
Speaker 3: actually am mattress because like stealing a mattress.
Speaker 1: Okay, at least you want to, you know, scam and
Speaker 1: have good sleep. You know what I mean?
Speaker 3: You scam in a full, nice rest so that you
Speaker 3: can do crime even better.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to know what mattress? Was it a sleep?
Speaker 4: Now?
Speaker 1: Was it?
Speaker 2: As I will say, mattress are expensive as hell.
Speaker 1: They are, and a good one. Let's talk about it.
Speaker 3: Okay, So Sean Kingston's background, this is my worst Jamaica
Speaker 3: in accent. Turn to five year old Sean Kingston was
Speaker 3: born Keishawan Anderson and he grew up in Florida and Jamaica,
Speaker 3: which is where he got the stage name Kingston. So
Speaker 3: he just took that from Kingston, Jamaica. He was like,
Speaker 3: my name is Sean and I'm from Kingston. You know
Speaker 3: what solid name? Famous record producer Jack Ruby was Shawn's grandfather.
Speaker 1: Not a NEPO.
Speaker 3: But Sean had a rough upbringing, as he tells it.
Speaker 3: So he was a NEPO a little bit. But he
Speaker 3: said he had it rough. Okay, this photo is definitely
Speaker 3: given rough. Can we go back to the other photo.
Speaker 1: What happened to Sean here? Was this after his skiing
Speaker 1: accident or some jet skiin.
Speaker 4: We jump in a head a little bit, right, but
Speaker 4: that's what I remember.
Speaker 3: Yeah, store now he was knock knock knocked. So this
Speaker 3: is the latest picture of Sean Kingston. And oh no,
Speaker 3: that's worse.
Speaker 4: That's that's lock up.
Speaker 1: That's lock up. That's he had to eat ramen noodles.
Speaker 3: I know his diet is full of salt now and
Speaker 3: no akey, no, no, no fish is giving prison food.
Speaker 3: Oh Sean, Sean, you gotta start working in the in
Speaker 3: the prison kitchen and get the all vegetables up, because
Speaker 3: too you real puffy baby. So his mother and his
Speaker 3: sister were sent to prison when Sean was fifteen. His mother,
Speaker 3: Janie Turner a ka Mama Kingston, now she changed her
Speaker 3: name to Mama Kingston where her son got don't look
Speaker 3: at her and she was like, oh mama tattooed eyebrows
Speaker 3: and look, she still had her last extences when they
Speaker 3: picked her up. She had just got a fresh fell
Speaker 3: batty baddy post for me.
Speaker 4: Is gone.
Speaker 3: They like, she got almost like the Stevie Wonder situation
Speaker 3: where the braids are starting at the nape of the
Speaker 3: neck because where is the hair in the front. You
Speaker 3: can only have that hairstyle if you blind babes, like
Speaker 3: I know you can see that. We give Stevie a
Speaker 3: pass because he blind, Like you can't have that, baby,
Speaker 3: But okay, So Mama Kingston as she's known on Instagram,
Speaker 3: pled guilty to stealing over one hundred and sixty thousand
Speaker 3: dollars in a bank fraud scheme and spent more than
Speaker 3: a year in prison at that time. And so this
Speaker 3: is a quote Sean Kingston said, I've been through a lot.
Speaker 3: I did twenty one days in jail, been to boot camp,
Speaker 3: got sent to Jamaica, slept in cars with my family.
Speaker 1: I had a rough life.
Speaker 3: Okay, Sean, I understand why you went to scamming like
Speaker 3: you had a rough life, sleeping in cars with your
Speaker 3: mama in the back of her braids. That this is
Speaker 3: a tough time. I can also understand why you would
Speaker 3: want a mattress. Yeah, but the point in her eyebrows
Speaker 3: tattoo too.
Speaker 4: I'm looking it up now too.
Speaker 2: And I have a Satva mattress, which is you know,
Speaker 2: it runs for like twenty one hundred Okay, Casper, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I got it. But I got that when I first
Speaker 2: moved into this three and a half years ago, and
Speaker 2: so I've had it ever since, you know. And it's
Speaker 2: you gonna move with me to my next department too,
Speaker 2: because it's a good ass. Mattress's good ass. That's another
Speaker 2: That's another thing too, Just like spending money on surgeries
Speaker 2: or whatever.
Speaker 1: You gotta go, you gotta go.
Speaker 2: You gotta go for the quality with the mattress, because
Speaker 2: that baby, I want to tell I want to tell
Speaker 2: young people listening, your future self will thank you for
Speaker 2: spending a correct amount of money on your mattress because
Speaker 2: I've had a bad mattress in my twenties.
Speaker 4: I've got the key of mattress before.
Speaker 3: Okay, i want nailed to me from Walmart that when
Speaker 3: you start to inflate with the air.

Speaker 3: My Space and that was a bob okay. He also

Speaker 3: Kevin Federline did try to do music before. He just
Speaker 3: tried to be Britney Spears's teat you.
Speaker 4: Don't remember proposal.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you about scams and embarrassing moments and
Speaker 2: this will this will be in this will be in
Speaker 2: book two, your little teased by the way, because book
Speaker 2: two is gonna get into the two thousands. One night
Speaker 2: during college at Loyola, I went to the House of
Speaker 2: Blues and I did see Kevin Federline performed yes, and
Speaker 2: he was also this is also like, it is very
Speaker 2: disrespectful that I was at this conture because he was
Speaker 2: sort of like fuck Britney Spears at one point in it,
Speaker 2: and no one joined in.
Speaker 1: No, everyone's just silent. It was just criked.
Speaker 3: He was like, oh, y'am not all right anyway, we're
Speaker 3: here for the laughs, sir, listen, we're here.
Speaker 1: Ironically, the ticket was fifteen dollars. Yeah, that's it. He
Speaker 1: thought he was having a concert. We're like, this is
Speaker 1: for a bit.
Speaker 3: We're all here for the bit, bro, No one's hearing
Speaker 3: any serious capacity.
Speaker 1: Don't get it confused. But I'm glad he was alulu
Speaker 1: enough to think that.
Speaker 3: We actually came to see him do popos out and
Speaker 3: his little background dancer moves. So Sean emailed JR. Every
Speaker 3: day until he got a response. Damn, listen, you got
Speaker 3: a hustle?
Speaker 4: How long? He doesn't say how long, It just.
Speaker 3: Says every day, So we don't know how many days
Speaker 3: that it was, but we know it was every every day.
Speaker 4: So JR. For not blocking him, right.
Speaker 3: That was back before we started blocking people for real.
Speaker 3: You'd just be like, oh, they're emailing me again.
Speaker 4: I block my money email now. I've blocked any email.
Speaker 1: Any email now but my space. We wasn't really blocking
Speaker 1: for real. So JR. Produced Sean's debut album single.
Speaker 3: Bety Fo Girls in May of two thousand and seven,
Speaker 3: when Sean was seventeen. It's slayed at number state at
Speaker 3: number one. On Billboard's Hot one hundred for three weeks,
Speaker 3: and suddenly everyone knew who this reggae fusion teenager singer
Speaker 3: rapper was.
Speaker 4: That's I Sam.
Speaker 3: His self titled album was certified Go. He toured with
Speaker 3: Gwen Sefani, Chris Brown, Kelly Clarkson, and also co wrote
Speaker 3: Jason Derulo's number.
Speaker 1: One hit M What You Say.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 1: So he was having a moment in the two thousands,
Speaker 1: and that was what Jasons girl jam. Yes it was.
Speaker 1: They was playing that song on Gossip Girl.
Speaker 3: And this is when Jason Derula wasn't getting on our
Speaker 3: nerves because he wasn't on TikTok yet. Because then Jason
Speaker 3: Derulo got on TikTok and I swear he will not
Speaker 3: put the baby oil down, and he's just baby oiled up,
Speaker 3: dancing with muscles every time we turn around, and you
Speaker 3: know what, Jason, do what your heart desires.
Speaker 1: It's kind of cringe, but I love it for you.
Speaker 2: Support Jason Derul only because when I used to live
Speaker 2: in LA I used to go to the Hollywood Equinox
Speaker 2: and he used to work out there.
Speaker 4: He looked good doing pull ups.
Speaker 1: He supportive because he looked good doing pull ups.
Speaker 4: He looked good girl. I'm sorry. Jason Deiro was fine.
Speaker 1: I can't support the only reason I can't support him
Speaker 1: is because I do think.
Speaker 3: He's a little corny and when he and Jordan's sparks
Speaker 3: like in all, Remember she had her purity ring and
Speaker 3: then she was with him, and then he had ran
Speaker 3: away with her purities and whatnot? Right, girls, let's not
Speaker 3: bring let's not bring back purity rings ever, y'all. You
Speaker 3: just you do what you want with your body. We
Speaker 3: don't need to see the ring to know if it's
Speaker 3: if you're trying to keep your COUCHI pure. Just do
Speaker 3: what you want with your body, keep it pure, don't
Speaker 3: but you don't need jewelry for it.
Speaker 1: But yeah, he took away her air and she she
Speaker 1: couldn't breathe no air. So you know he was wrong
Speaker 1: for that.
Speaker 3: So in summer of two thousand and eight, Jason released
Speaker 3: or Sean Excuse Me released a personal song, a heartfelt
Speaker 3: oh to his mother entitled Dryer Eyes, which includes the
Speaker 3: lyrics you know how to make me better even when
Speaker 3: we lose our cheddarm.
Speaker 1: So that's foreboding. I remember the mama was already a scammer.
Speaker 3: She had been locked up when he was fifteen for
Speaker 3: still one hundred and sixty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: So if they lose the cheddar, mama knows how to
Speaker 1: scam it better.
Speaker 4: So beautiful business.
Speaker 3: Yes, wait, let's hear a little clip of the song
Speaker 3: because I don't remember this one. It was a good
Speaker 3: Do we remember this song?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I just want to tell you.
Speaker 1: First morning.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, Actually this album goes off and got
Speaker 2: it back.
Speaker 3: Okay, Sean, We're gonna put some respect on your name,
Speaker 3: mister Kingston, because yeah you did.
Speaker 1: You had a moment. It was cute that for you, Bob.
Speaker 3: Run. So let's get into his jet ski brushed with death.
Speaker 3: I do remember this being in the highlights. So on
Speaker 3: Sunday night in twenty eleven, Sean was racing his jet
Speaker 3: ski along Miami Beach with a female passenger when he
Speaker 3: hit the Palm Island Bridge around six pm. Now, why
Speaker 3: are y'all just getting into a bridge? You're not supposed
Speaker 3: to j just skie at night?
Speaker 4: Bro?
Speaker 1: Like, did the jet ski have lights on? And what
Speaker 1: are we doing? I know y'all not sober.
Speaker 3: So a passing boat rescued Kingston and his passenger from
Speaker 3: the water, and Miami Fire Rescue brought them to the hospital.
Speaker 3: He was critically injured in the accident with a torn
Speaker 3: aorta and required emergency open heart surgery. After twenty three
Speaker 3: days in the hospital, he was released and was cited
Speaker 3: for careless operation. Yeah, driving a jet ski at night
Speaker 3: and running into a bridge. I'm gonna say it's pretty careless.
Speaker 3: He and his passenger both recovered and by twenty eighteen
Speaker 3: and he resumed riding jet skis.
Speaker 1: He said that wasn't enough for me at once.
Speaker 3: One torn a order, one torna order ain't gonna stop
Speaker 3: me for hopping on the jet ski like I think
Speaker 3: that would do it for me. Are you getting back
Speaker 3: on a jet skie, Ira after you tear your heart open?
Speaker 4: First of all, I'm not on a jet ski in
Speaker 4: the first place. That is not a place where you
Speaker 4: will find.
Speaker 1: Me, not even with a little life Jess. At Fire Island,
Speaker 1: we do.
Speaker 4: Not jet ski What do you What do you think
Speaker 4: Fire Island is the Bahamas?
Speaker 1: I know y'all get married.
Speaker 4: I ain't letting go.
Speaker 1: Out y'all be at the parties. I'm just saying I
Speaker 1: want to take a little break, you know, from the parties.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I certainly wouldn't be getting back on it. Also,
Speaker 2: I remember this because it cut into the promo time
Speaker 2: for his iconic single. My favorite Sean Kingson single is
Speaker 2: Dutty Love featuring Nicki Minaj.
Speaker 1: Oh, Dutty Love.
Speaker 2: Yeah, one of Nikki's best raps. Yeah, that's the that's
Speaker 2: the dot tee dot tee duty feeling.
Speaker 1: That song was popping.
Speaker 3: You can say a lot of things about Nicki Minaj
Speaker 3: that I'll never say because her hand her fans terrify me.
Speaker 3: But on one of them, oh my god, not a
Speaker 3: barb on the show. Now, I'm really being scammed. I
Speaker 3: don't want to be docs. I don't need anybody know.
Speaker 1: Where I live. Barbs.
Speaker 3: I love y'all, the swiftest and the barbs people I
Speaker 3: will never go up against in my life.
Speaker 1: But yes, that song.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Sucking Sun. She does great like features. She
Speaker 3: has some fire ass features on people's songs. That's one
Speaker 3: thing about Nikki. If you ask her to be on
Speaker 3: your song, you will get seasoning. She's not gonna come
Speaker 3: in and half asses. She's going to take your song over. Actually,
Speaker 3: people might not think it's yours anymore.
Speaker 1: By the end.
Speaker 3: So so this interrupted the press of that song because
Speaker 3: he was recovering in the hospital and at a point
Speaker 3: it was touch and go because I remember people being like,
Speaker 3: its Sean King Dad, Oh my god, he did.
Speaker 4: And for years after people would always tell you, you know,
Speaker 4: Sharks is dead.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's not good for your career when people think
Speaker 1: are you dead?
Speaker 2: I mean, how many times did we think Lil Wayne
Speaker 2: was dead? So many times, Like it's constantly and people
Speaker 2: are always like, you Lil Way.
Speaker 3: Died, like and every time he popped back up in
Speaker 3: the scene, we'd be like, oh, he not dead. It
Speaker 3: was because he was having all those lean seizures and
Speaker 3: we were like, sirr. But he survived everyone. And that's
Speaker 3: why when he was mad because he wasn't doing the
Speaker 3: super Bowl in Louisiana when Kendrick did it, we were
Speaker 3: all kind of like, Wayne, we don't know.
Speaker 1: If you're gonna live through a whole Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: Concert halftime, like babes say that, like you was on
Speaker 3: stage and Birdman was definitely leaning. At one point he
Speaker 3: was taking naps, like I think y'all might need to
Speaker 3: hang it up for a little bit, do some exercise. Retwist,
Speaker 3: the dread, I don't know, you know, come back to
Speaker 3: life before we start considering that long of a performance.
Speaker 1: So he wasn't dead, but the girl he thought he was.
Speaker 3: And although this is and related to the fraud that
Speaker 3: we're gonna discover, it's an interesting moment in his life
Speaker 3: that many places call a turning point for him. It
Speaker 3: was a time when he resessed and he reassessed what
Speaker 3: he wanted out of life, because you know, he had
Speaker 3: a near death experience that didn't take him off the
Speaker 3: jet Ski, but he was like, I gotta reassess after
Speaker 3: his I think that would have.
Speaker 1: Been the reassessment for me. Is no jet Ski's but okay.
Speaker 3: So after his debut in the early years, Sean released
Speaker 3: three more albums in twenty nine, twenty thirteen, and twenty
Speaker 3: twenty two, none which produced another chart topping hit.
Speaker 1: I didn't know he had an album in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1: I did not know either. That's three years ago and
Speaker 1: I had not heard a people or a word.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh, and it does not even just look on his albums,
Speaker 2: it's not even a Wikipedia page for it.
Speaker 1: No, because he died the first album he drops should
Speaker 1: have been I'm not dead.
Speaker 3: And then he got to go do a bunch of
Speaker 3: publicity suns like fall down them stairs and we all
Speaker 3: you know that stair fall that we always called Jason
Speaker 3: Derulo at the met like he needed one of those.
Speaker 3: We knew he was alive again because we definitely forgot.
Speaker 3: So let's get into our next topic here. Rich people
Speaker 3: don't want to pay for things. This is something that
Speaker 3: I've learned recently. I'm trying to adapt it. Rich people
Speaker 3: stay rich because they just do not buy stuff or
Speaker 3: they get it for really cheap. And I'm like, oh, okay,
Speaker 3: this is how you keep your money. You don't spend
Speaker 3: it and you become a miser. So Sean and his
Speaker 3: mother were successfully sued on two separate occasions during his
Speaker 3: musical career. The two had to pay three hundred and
Speaker 3: fifty six thousand dollars in twenty fifteen after they were
Speaker 3: accused in a New York City federal court of failing
Speaker 3: to pay a customized watch seller. So he didn't win
Speaker 3: and got a four hundred thousand dollars watch. It was like,
Speaker 3: I'm Sean king Stein and just like walked out the
Speaker 3: Jerey store. Yeah, Waguan y'all watch and then left. So, yeah,
Speaker 3: you can't do that. You do need to pay people.
Speaker 3: Three years later, they were forced to pay three hundred
Speaker 3: and one thousand dollars to a New York jeweler who
Speaker 3: claimed they scammed the store out of nine items. Last years,
Speaker 3: the lawsuits escalated to actual arrests, and in March of
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five, they were found guilty of wire fraud
Speaker 3: for over a million dollars in So damn goods Now listen.
Speaker 1: I told y'all, don't do y'all crime through the mail.
Speaker 1: Don't do your wire.
Speaker 4: That's worse.
Speaker 1: No, through the wire where y'all created transferse.
Speaker 3: Hollus government, where I find you and put you in
Speaker 3: a stall. Don't do it like the wire is the
Speaker 3: easiest way for them to get you. Okay, So we're
Speaker 3: at We have Seawn's albums up here, and I don't
Speaker 3: recognize none of these except for the first one. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't know what he was toming about. I ain't
Speaker 3: hear no singles, nobody did. No TikTok dances, TikTok. Y'all
Speaker 3: get out there and find an undiscovered Sean Kings song,
Speaker 3: and y'all do some arm movements to it and help
Speaker 3: my king out because he's down bad right now.
Speaker 4: Put some money in his commissary.
Speaker 3: Yeah, put so he can get real food because it
Speaker 3: looked like he really surviving off Rahmen. And now that
Speaker 3: sodium is real bad for he little bloated y'all. Yeah
Speaker 3: that picture, Yeah, that's a high sodium diet. We got
Speaker 3: to help Shine out because he's not doing well. Them
Speaker 3: beautiful girls, they might have got him suicidal at this point.
Speaker 4: So that is also just the chorus for that song
Speaker 4: is so funny.
Speaker 2: The beautiful girls they got me school got I'm like, okay,
Speaker 2: imagine imagine a young struggling team listening to that song
Speaker 2: right on the radio.
Speaker 4: Did they added out suicidal? Did they edit out the
Speaker 4: word suicidal the radio edit? It was No.
Speaker 3: I think they don't because I remember singing it like
Speaker 3: Sue Aside, and I feel like I should not be
Speaker 3: singing that word with such glee, and yet here we were.
Speaker 3: It was like, ye'all want to be a babbage. That
Speaker 3: makes everybody want to kill themselves. Yeah, it feels too bad,
Speaker 3: It feels like too much, But that was the time,
Speaker 3: you know. So Sean and Janis were found guilty of
Speaker 3: an organized scheme to defraud businesses, including car dealerships and
Speaker 3: like this was to the tune of fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 3: They used fake recies and screenshots of wire transfers to
Speaker 3: convince sellers they had paid for things like cars and
Speaker 3: jewelry with actually no money had been transferred. I do
Speaker 3: love the privilege here of some black people being able
Speaker 3: to go places with fake wire transfers and be.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, we send it to you. Here's the piece
Speaker 1: of paper. We're gonna drive off the lot.
Speaker 4: Now that right?
Speaker 3: Not me?
Speaker 1: Not my world, No, not in my world.
Speaker 3: I feel like I want to test drive a car.
Speaker 3: There's like someone in the backseat would have gun to
Speaker 3: my head like you better.
Speaker 4: Bring your back.
Speaker 1: Yes, make love here.
Speaker 2: Wow the wire trans that is, that's bold. And my
Speaker 2: question too is we're now were they selling these things?
Speaker 2: Because I'm like, I know you're stunting, but right like
Speaker 2: I'm not. I'd like, who is Shaun Kings and something
Speaker 2: for with multiple cars and multiple watchers.
Speaker 3: And parties and then look, yeah, Sean King's on the list.
Speaker 3: He's pulling up in his Uh, I don't know. Mclauren, like,
Speaker 3: what what are we doing.
Speaker 4: If they were selling the items to you pay for
Speaker 4: their life, right.
Speaker 1: That's what I hope. So now they got a sound
Speaker 1: system lawsuit.
Speaker 3: From twenty twenty three to twenty twenty four, Seawn contacted
Speaker 3: victims via a social media platform to purchase high end merchandise.
Speaker 3: After negotiating deals, he invited sellers to his upscale homes
Speaker 3: in Broward County, Florida, using his celebrity status to gain
Speaker 3: their trust. Sean promised social media promotions and mentioned high
Speaker 3: profile celebrities as potential referrals. So he's still using his
Speaker 3: Beautiful Girl's cloud to get to the girls to go
Speaker 3: to the Broward County house with their equipment, and he's like, look,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna post you on Instagram. Everybody's gonna post you, Drea,
Speaker 3: who else be on Instagram? That one lady who turned us,
Speaker 3: I'm Brittany Renner Tokyo, Tony gonna post like, don't worry,
Speaker 3: everybody's gonna know about those sound system So in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty four, a company that sells and installs high end
Speaker 3: entertainment system sued Sean and his mom for fraud, breach
Speaker 3: of contract, and all of this was for failing to
Speaker 3: pay for a two hundred three thirty two inch television
Speaker 3: and robust sound system that was installed in his Florida home.
Speaker 1: So he had this society that's big as hell. That's
Speaker 1: like a wall.
Speaker 4: Oh think it's two hundred two inches too many inches.
Speaker 1: Where you're hosting the super Bowl? What's going on? Ship?
Speaker 3: So Sean promised that exchange for a lower down payment,
Speaker 3: he would convince Justin Bieber to produce promotional videos for
Speaker 3: the company. No promotional videos were ever filmed, and Sean
Speaker 3: paid only thirty thousand of the one hundred and fifteen
Speaker 3: thousand that he owed for the purchase and installation of
Speaker 3: the television and sound system. The lawsuit says, So he
Speaker 3: got one picture with Bieber and was like, don't worry,
Speaker 3: Bieber gonna come out here and be like, Yo, TV's
Speaker 3: too buoy fucker. That's why I had to hang it up,
Speaker 3: you know, Like I don't know he said he was
Speaker 3: gonna do this. I'm sure Justin Bieber is so tired
Speaker 3: of being in black rappers.
Speaker 1: Business because.
Speaker 3: Every time I turn around him and his bang, his
Speaker 3: bayang is in some rappers business, and I know he's
Speaker 3: like I'm tired, Like leave me alone. I married my
Speaker 3: white Baldwin wife and I moved back into whiteness. I'm Canadian.
Speaker 1: Please get all these negroes with chains away from me.
Speaker 4: He looked pretty good the other day. I saw him
Speaker 4: at Coachalla.
Speaker 1: Oh and he was looking well.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was looking well with Haley.
Speaker 3: Because he been on Instagram looking unwell for a minute.
Speaker 3: So I'm happy that he looking well again.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Do you know his pastor back in the game
Speaker 4: and got him doing stuff and we've remember when that
Speaker 4: happened before.
Speaker 1: God, I'm happy for him and whatever works.
Speaker 3: So the watch, We're not done with him pilfering damn
Speaker 3: Fort Lauderdale. Georde testified that he gave Sean an automarpa
Speaker 3: watch for two hundred and eighty five thousand dollars and
Speaker 3: the promise of introducing him to other celebrities. In a
Speaker 3: voice memo played during trials, Sean can be heard saying
Speaker 3: I'm going to have you at all my video shoots
Speaker 3: and red carpets. Now, you, as the Jeweler, should have known,
Speaker 3: Sean ain't done a video shoot.
Speaker 1: It ain't been on he ain't been on nobody's colored
Speaker 1: carpet in a minute.
Speaker 3: Where are the videos come on and is he talking
Speaker 3: about the carpet in his Brower County home, because I
Speaker 3: ain't seen him on nobody's carpet and then nobody's video
Speaker 3: for a hot minute, not since he died in the
Speaker 3: jet ski incident.
Speaker 4: That this is my thing too. And I've seen this,
Speaker 4: you know, listening to your show.
Speaker 2: I saw it on your TV show Abclu, Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: I saw it all your show Hulu. The celebrities, these
Speaker 2: quote unquote celebts who scare people. These are these are
Speaker 2: people I can rarely feel sorry for because you are
Speaker 2: obviously trying to get in with a celebrity to get something,
Speaker 2: et cetera. But the celebrity is so downtrodden, The celebrity
Speaker 2: is so far past their expiration date.
Speaker 4: What you think is happening?
Speaker 3: If you're trying to hit an entry point, you like,
Speaker 3: they got a little bit of cloud. Maybe somebody at
Speaker 3: the party will feel bad for them and come and
Speaker 3: then I can connect with the real celebrity.
Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair. But videos and carpets, that's what what
Speaker 2: video we just looked up?
Speaker 3: We no things, no videos, no carpets. Did you mean
Speaker 3: a handheld camera. He's like, look, get in my iPhone video.
Speaker 3: This is what I mean by video, sir, what do
Speaker 3: you mean? And so he's posing here with the watch,
Speaker 3: and I mean, if he's going on a red carpet,
Speaker 3: he still has to show that he's popping. So this
Speaker 3: watch is definitely adding to like, Oh, Sean King didn't die,
Speaker 3: he didn't fall off. Look at his Artema's watch, like
Speaker 3: he must have money because that's an expensive watch. So
Speaker 3: obviously Sean King did not come through with his promise
Speaker 3: to this jeweler. He gave the jeweler a screenshot of
Speaker 3: a wire transfer, which the bank said was not authentic. Later,
Speaker 3: the juror was fired from his job and blacklisted after
Speaker 3: Kingston never put the bill.
Speaker 1: As the job you lost?
Speaker 3: This man who employment and he should have lost his
Speaker 3: employment because not a screenshot and he left with a
Speaker 3: turn or any thousand dollars watch, bro Ham, We're gonna
Speaker 3: need more than that.
Speaker 4: A screenshot of a wire transfer is wild to me.
Speaker 4: I'm calling the bank.
Speaker 3: Right, I didn't know you could do this. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: make me a screenshot of a wire transfer. See how
Speaker 3: far I could get with it? Because I didn't know
Speaker 3: people were just taking that off face value. Let me
Speaker 3: get a picture on one of my billboards and walk
Speaker 3: in somewhere and be like, I'm gonna introduce you to
Speaker 3: Whooping gold Berg. Give me this two hundred and eighty
Speaker 3: thousand dollars watch, and here's a screenshot of a wire
Speaker 3: transfer that I did to you. No look it up
Speaker 3: after I leave. Sometimes you gotta put the numbers in backwards.
Speaker 3: Just call me, but it's a fake number and I leave.
Speaker 3: The person who did this should have got fired. I'm
Speaker 3: so sorry, but you were.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's silly behavior. That's behavior.
Speaker 3: At least say in charge you for the watch, But
Speaker 3: you gotta go find a shot case to yourself.
Speaker 1: This gotta be a villain origin story. He can't ease.
Speaker 3: He looks easy to chase. I feel like you could
Speaker 3: get him. I don't think he moving very fast, Like
Speaker 3: you could get him. Hop on a jet ski and
Speaker 3: chase him down in Florida.
Speaker 1: You got it.
Speaker 3: So the verdict was a shot so set posted on
Speaker 3: Instagram and before his arrest, as one does people love
Speaker 3: negative energy. Let's look at this Instagram post. He said,
Speaker 3: people love negative energy exclamation point. I am good and
Speaker 3: so is my mother. My lawyers are handling everything as
Speaker 3: we speak. And this is Tim posting after it said.
Speaker 3: Sean King speaks out after his mother was arrested at
Speaker 3: his home.
Speaker 4: The comments you should have had the bills, sir.
Speaker 1: No, so many on the comments. No, the comments are
Speaker 1: so disrespectful.
Speaker 4: Can you afford to pay a lawyer? Attorney?
Speaker 1: But did you pay the lawyers?
Speaker 4: Lol?
Speaker 1: Oh my god?
Speaker 3: Who did those guilty? I guess they attacked you and
Speaker 3: your family. Two people are delusional, Sean, what did you do? Okay,
Speaker 3: hope the lawyer. Hope not the lawyer that was on
Speaker 3: the news laughing face. You know, when you're going through
Speaker 3: real legal trouble and everybody cracking jokes on you in
Speaker 3: your comments.
Speaker 1: That ain't right.
Speaker 4: It was arrested for those eyebrows.
Speaker 1: That's nasty. Were her eyebrows? Do give crime? Her eyebrows
Speaker 1: been legal?
Speaker 3: If I saw those eyebrows, I would pull you over
Speaker 3: in a routine traffic stop and search your car because
Speaker 3: I know something ain't right.
Speaker 4: Those are the eyebrows that.
Speaker 2: Jerry's uncle had on simefelt that is those are crazy eyebrows.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry they.
Speaker 1: Are have eyebrows? Ever lied to you because.
Speaker 2: Uncle Leo from sidefeld that she's giving Uncle Leo. I'm
Speaker 2: thank you, Jess. I'm wow.
Speaker 4: She looks like she's glaring at me.
Speaker 3: Yes, those eyebrows are lying to me as we speak,
Speaker 3: like through the like through the video, like I would
Speaker 3: not believe a thing those eyebrows said.
Speaker 1: So this makes sense.
Speaker 3: They were like, get her, guys, They're like what grounds
Speaker 3: it was like you see her eyebrows?
Speaker 1: Lock her up?
Speaker 3: Yeah, they gotta find an unbiased jury of blind people
Speaker 3: to have her in court because I'm gonna say, he'll
Speaker 3: see you just off the rip.
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3: So during the trial, one of the key pieces of
Speaker 3: evidence was a text that Sean Kingson sent to his
Speaker 3: mother that read I told you to make a fake receipt,
Speaker 3: followed by so it looks like the transfer will be
Speaker 3: there in a couple of days.
Speaker 1: So now y'all sending this over text.
Speaker 3: You couldn't send your mama phone call like Heym'm gonna
Speaker 3: make that fake receipt real quick. You send it via
Speaker 3: text like, hey, mama, do the fraud like this? What
Speaker 3: you thought that wasn't gonna get picked up? You don't
Speaker 3: write down crime?
Speaker 4: Why are you I told you to make the fake receipt.
Speaker 4: Come on now.
Speaker 3: Also, you're incriminating yourself as hell, like you could have
Speaker 3: been like, mom, do you have the receipt? You don't
Speaker 3: got to say it's fake, and you certainly don't have
Speaker 3: to be like, hey, it's me Sean Kingston doing a
Speaker 3: robbery here?
Speaker 1: Hey mom, did you make that fake receipt?
Speaker 4: Whatever happened to calls? Bring that phone persons right.
Speaker 3: If you're gonna write something down, put it on a
Speaker 3: letter that you burn in the fireplace, like let's take
Speaker 3: it back to the og crime because y'all getting a
Speaker 3: little to mama, Yeah, and then burn it it, burn
Speaker 3: it in front of him, because the fuck is s Like,
Speaker 3: what is you talking about? You sent a text message, Mama,
Speaker 3: did you get my email with a fake crime that
Speaker 3: I said we're doing this weekend at two pm at
Speaker 3: the dealership?
Speaker 1: Like you just gave him everything they needed. What are
Speaker 1: you doing?
Speaker 3: So he wrote down all his crimes, which does not help,
Speaker 3: the judge said. Sean's mother showed she was the fixer
Speaker 3: and the nerve center for the alleged fraud's screen like scheme,
Speaker 3: while Kingston's defense team claimed he was simply a child
Speaker 3: who was clueless about his finances.
Speaker 1: Not you're throwing your mama to the boat.
Speaker 3: You hate a whole song about how she hustling hard
Speaker 3: for you, and now you're gonna throw her under the
Speaker 3: jet ski like this as soon as y'all go to court.
Speaker 1: That ain't right.
Speaker 4: He said, dry your eyes yourself, ma'am, ma'am, dry your eyes.
Speaker 4: That was the song. Okay, I'm not doing it.
Speaker 1: He did say he wasn't gonna do it. You know,
Speaker 1: we should have took the hint right there.
Speaker 3: But he did also say he loved his mama and
Speaker 3: that was his number one hustler for better or for poorer, right,
Speaker 3: something about some cheedda and being better.
Speaker 1: But I guess when it ran out, he was like,
Speaker 1: you got to go. You expired, mama.
Speaker 3: Dam They were both found guilty of stealing almost five
Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars in jewelry, more than two hundred thousand
Speaker 3: dollars from Bank of America, one hundred and sixty thousand
Speaker 3: dollars from a bulletproof Cadillac escalade dealer.
Speaker 1: Damn, who's trying to shoot casehean kingson that he needed
Speaker 1: a bulletproof. We know you were alive. Son, I don't
Speaker 1: think anybody was trying to shoot you. You ain't need bulletproof. Well,
Speaker 1: I mean the jeweler okay, the jewelers.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, because if I'm a jeweler who got
Speaker 3: fired for that artomrs PJ.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm I'm might be shooting you, I might shooting here.
Speaker 4: We had he had ops in Florida. Okay, and this
Speaker 4: is also.
Speaker 3: Florida, so them jewelers ain't all on the up and up.
Speaker 3: He dealing with them, uncut gems, jewelers.
Speaker 1: Uncut chats.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, they were all ready to stand their ground. Okay.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this was very much some safty brothers Adam Sandler,
Speaker 3: jeweler type niggas who got the gun.
Speaker 1: They got the blinky right there next to the watches.
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, they do their own justice in Florida, Okay,
Speaker 4: with black people. All he was he was scared.
Speaker 3: You know, the NAACP has had it on their lists
Speaker 3: for a long time of places not to travel to
Speaker 3: in America, and Florida is one of them. If you're black,
Speaker 3: you're not supposed to be over there. They don't warned us.
Speaker 3: They warned us, definitely not if you're doing crime. You
Speaker 3: need to stay a black ass out of Florida.
Speaker 4: It is not in the Green Book.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's not in the Green band.
Speaker 4: The whole state is just empty.
Speaker 2: It.
Speaker 4: Don't go there.
Speaker 1: Don't go there. Not for spring Break, not for art Basil,
Speaker 1: not for for Disney.
Speaker 4: Nope, No, California.
Speaker 3: There's one in California. That's where your black ass goes.
Speaker 3: Disney Land, not the world. Stay out of the world.
Speaker 1: Okay. If you were to stay in the world, stay
Speaker 1: out of Disney World because you're black. Okay.
Speaker 3: And clearly he was not getting the memo. And then
Speaker 3: also more than one hundred thousand dollars from First Republic Bank.
Speaker 3: How are you stealing money from banks? I'm intrigued because
Speaker 3: I haven't stolen no money from the bank.
Speaker 1: That's interesting.
Speaker 2: And actually, let me not say no, we'll talk off,
Speaker 2: We'll talk, Okay, I was, I was good.
Speaker 4: There could be a college scam, Goddess, I said about.
Speaker 1: Okay, we'll keep that team. You keep that tea for me.
Speaker 3: But then also they stole more than one hundred thousand
Speaker 3: dollars from the Republic Bank, right, and eighty six thousand
Speaker 3: dollars from Mattress.
Speaker 4: Firm yes, Oh, this was at the high quality mattress.
Speaker 1: Mattress firm, y'all.
Speaker 3: Now they sell different types of mattresses at mattress firm.
Speaker 1: So it might have not been the floor model.
Speaker 3: It might have been a sleep number, It might have
Speaker 3: been a you know, casper, it could have been a purple.
Speaker 1: I would hope that it was like an upgraded mattress.
Speaker 2: Okay, they have luxury mattresses at mattress firm. Okay, let
Speaker 2: me look up here. Okay they have serdas, kings down Crown, imperials,
Speaker 2: cha chatteromen wells.
Speaker 4: Okay, they've they've got some good mattresses. I wouldn't you know.
Speaker 3: Okay, so we're not saluting our nose up. Mattress firm
Speaker 3: sponsored the show, And but eighty six thousand dollars worth
Speaker 3: of a mattress is that two mattresses, two really high
Speaker 3: quality mattresses.
Speaker 2: It feels like mattresses that's giving multiple mattresses, that's princesses.
Speaker 1: Furnisher with all the mattresses.
Speaker 3: It feels like y'all got like a whole moving truck
Speaker 3: worth the mattresses and you furnished your your broward home
Speaker 3: with all the mattresses.
Speaker 2: I still need to know if they were boosting these things,
Speaker 2: Like were they stealing them to then sell them again,
Speaker 2: or did the police recover just all the stuff in
Speaker 2: the mansion, you know, because if you were selling mattresses
Speaker 2: to family members or stuff for cheap or whatever that
Speaker 2: was stolen, this is a whole different enterprise.
Speaker 4: But I guess they would be charged with that too
Speaker 4: if they were doing yeah.
Speaker 3: But also boosting something so large it's crazy, Like I
Speaker 3: can't be like, hey, yo, I got the mattresses. That's
Speaker 3: a whole I gotta get a truck. I gotta deliver
Speaker 3: it to your house. We gotta fit it through the doorframe.
Speaker 3: Like if I'm gonna boost something, it's gotta be lighter.
Speaker 3: Like they should have boosted the jewelry for real. But
Speaker 3: the mattresses, I hope they were just in Sean Kingston's home.
Speaker 3: I'm sure he needs a good mattress after his jet
Speaker 3: ski incident, so that's understandable. Sean broke down in tears
Speaker 3: and cried out for protection for his mother as the
Speaker 3: two were found guilty. They each face a maximum of
Speaker 3: twenty years in prison depending on their sentencing. That's coming
Speaker 3: up this July, Sean was allowed to post bond of
Speaker 3: a relative's home at five hundred thousand dollars plus two
Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars in cash, and is out on house
Speaker 3: arrest with an ankle monitor. Sean, you better get in
Speaker 3: that booth and come up with another hit.
Speaker 4: Yeah, better get on that video sat now right, Like.
Speaker 1: I feel like this is when you gotta come out
Speaker 1: with yoll scamming song.
Speaker 2: This is I just can't get off the like the
Speaker 2: scamming of the video thing, because I'm if I were scamming, yes,
Speaker 2: I would at least like find like some wack producer,
Speaker 2: you know, like like a portion from Atlanta's like it's Dennis,
Speaker 2: you know, like Drew did, like sub producer, make a song,
Speaker 2: make some video for like you've already boosted stuff.
Speaker 4: You got the money.
Speaker 2: Make some video, even if you don't have a label,
Speaker 2: even if you're just releasing it yourself on YouTube.
Speaker 4: Technically, have you fulfilled the contract?
Speaker 1: Yes, and it'll get views.
Speaker 3: You put it right on Vevo and you call it
Speaker 3: Sean Kingston is dead. Everybody gonna click on it because
Speaker 3: you still don't know if you were live or not.
Speaker 1: That's mute.
Speaker 2: That's the single that's the singal Sean Kings. Sean, if
Speaker 2: you're listening, Sean Kings is Dead is the.
Speaker 3: Single turn down that ankle monitor for a second. Sean
Speaker 3: Kings is Dead. The song should be all about all
Speaker 3: the scamming and fraud you did. You know it used
Speaker 3: to be beted for girls and now it's gonna be
Speaker 3: you know, padded walls or like sales like you know,
Speaker 3: ram and noodles.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: You got it, You got it, and people want to
Speaker 3: hear your true Sean while you free. Make some coins
Speaker 3: off of that, get the girls to do a TikTok
Speaker 3: dance to it. You don't even need a professional photographer,
Speaker 3: no more than like the internet is a meritocracy. You
Speaker 3: get somebody who got a good nikon cam. They follow
Speaker 3: you around with your ankle bracelet, and you cry for
Speaker 3: your mama and visit her in jail and make a
Speaker 3: music video while you free, like you gotta do it, Sean.
Speaker 4: Dry your eyes could become a TikTok trend YEP.
Speaker 3: It definitely could dry your eyes. Mama cries, We're giving
Speaker 3: you free game right here. Okay, prison times, just and
Speaker 3: do it on the mattresses. You stole and see if
Speaker 3: that mattress firm will sponsor you. They were like, the
Speaker 3: mattresses were too good. I had to steal them.
Speaker 4: Don't worry, our prices are a steal right, exactly.
Speaker 1: As Sean Kingston. He's like they really are. He would know.
Speaker 2: That's like a writer with Mark Jacobs, you know, like
Speaker 2: yesip flipping it into something good.
Speaker 3: Flipping into something good, Sean, because I don't want to
Speaker 3: see you go out like this. You already look like
Speaker 3: prison or a little bit of jail you was in,
Speaker 3: was doing you wrong. Get out there, jog to your
Speaker 3: jet ski. Oh this picture is just so upsetting every
Speaker 3: time we see it.
Speaker 4: It's just but he's a house arrest now, so he
Speaker 4: might be eating.
Speaker 3: He might he probably Jordasher, Okay, I hope he's getting
Speaker 3: a lot of water and maybe a few jogs in.
Speaker 3: He definitely needs to get to the studio and give
Speaker 3: us a whole scam album about how he was doing these.
Speaker 3: It should be called wire Fraud and the first single
Speaker 3: is I'm Not Dead And you know, just like really
Speaker 3: give the girls a memoir. You know you already got
Speaker 3: all the receipts and all the text messages, them the
Speaker 3: lyrics right there, you know, right that's the album cover art.
Speaker 1: Mom, did you fake the wire transfer for audio?
Speaker 4: Drop the audio in there, you know, like like remix it.
Speaker 3: Yes, this is what the girls want to hear, real
Speaker 3: true crime. Nobody's done true crime album yet. Okay, Yes,
Speaker 3: you're about to tap into a whole new market, Sean,
Speaker 3: go ahead and do that, okay, because the girls are waiting.
Speaker 3: They they already think you did anyway, so now they
Speaker 3: know you alive, and get these singles out here.
Speaker 1: See if Nicki.
Speaker 3: Minajeill come back on one and be like, hey, mister Kingston,
Speaker 3: you're going to prison, you know, and let's get it
Speaker 3: pop him.
Speaker 1: So how do you feel about this scam overall? Iram?
Speaker 4: I like had heard about it.
Speaker 2: It was it was just very like what and now
Speaker 2: that we dove into it, this is a top tier foolishness,
Speaker 2: top tier foolishness.
Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not proud of the scammer.
Speaker 2: It's not particularly hilarious, like we had a good time,
Speaker 2: we had a key, but there's nothing particularly like haha
Speaker 2: about it, Like in the way Hilaria Baldwin.
Speaker 4: Was for insults, you know, it's not it's just sad.
Speaker 4: It's low rent scammery.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I hate to see low rent scamming. I
Speaker 3: really wish that they had gone for better the watches
Speaker 3: had me. I was like an artemige, like, you're stealing
Speaker 3: two hundred thousand dollars watches. Okay, that's cute. How are
Speaker 3: we using that to apply ourselves? It feels like you
Speaker 3: were just stealing these things and then you weren't promoting.
Speaker 2: Steel right because there's no albums or some videos, there's
Speaker 2: no carpet, so you're just stealing it just to what
Speaker 2: floss in whatever Florida suburb you live in.
Speaker 3: Literally, at least do a music video or try to
Speaker 3: sneak on somebody's red carpet.
Speaker 1: I'm sure MTV would let you on there.
Speaker 3: Maybe you could be one to open and acts for
Speaker 3: nostalgia or something like I don't know, parap with a
Speaker 3: TikTok influencer, bring your song back or something.
Speaker 1: But no, you just chose to steal mattresses and watches
Speaker 1: for what.
Speaker 3: This is very boring, Like in the jet ski incident alone,
Speaker 3: I'm like you couldn't like you decided to change your
Speaker 3: life to crime after you had a near death experience
Speaker 3: on a jet ski. You got your ass back on
Speaker 3: the water motorcycle, but you didn't change nothing for the better.
Speaker 4: Right, And now you're going to prison like for.
Speaker 3: What you facing twenty years? You and your mama gonna
Speaker 3: be locked down in separate prisons. Y'all not even gonna
Speaker 3: be able to visit each other.
Speaker 4: And how old is he? Now?
Speaker 1: How old is he? Now?
Speaker 3: Let's look it up. I'm also kind of like, I
Speaker 3: don't want him to go to jail for this. I
Speaker 3: feel like they could find the mattresses and he could
Speaker 3: return them. The watches gotta still be out there, he
Speaker 3: could return, oh thirty five and going to prison's crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you're gonna get out when you fifthy for some watches?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there should.
Speaker 3: Be a Now mama with them eyebrow she gotta stay
Speaker 3: in jail because this is her second offense. Like the
Speaker 3: eyebrows always gonna do crime. She don't got a choice.
Speaker 3: They said robbery and fraud. Those are my eyebrows. They
Speaker 3: may not be twins, but they are co conspirators.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: Now, she couldn't scam to like get some like eyes,
Speaker 2: like a hair transplant for the eyebrows.
Speaker 1: No, she was like, the eyebrows are enough, that's all
Speaker 1: they do?
Speaker 4: That do they do that in Turkey eyebrows?
Speaker 3: They probably do. They definitely do a lot of stuff.
Speaker 3: Like I know at least Christy Teeken got an eyebrow transplant.
Speaker 3: And when you get your eyebrows transplanted, they grow like
Speaker 3: wherever the hair they took it from. So you gotta
Speaker 3: get them trimmed because then they be growing out like
Speaker 3: a bayang. But yeah, if you want someday brows, you
Speaker 3: can definitely get them, y'all. You just gonna have to
Speaker 3: trim them up. But I have curly hair. I thought
Speaker 3: about it, and then I was like, my I have
Speaker 3: like a fro about eyebrow fro I.
Speaker 1: Would have to have.
Speaker 4: I have perfect eyebrows. I fear you do. I've never
Speaker 4: had to shave them either.
Speaker 1: I plucked once when I was eight, and I never
Speaker 1: I never recovered.
Speaker 4: They don't grow. They don't grow at all.
Speaker 1: It was like they never recovered right here.
Speaker 3: They're still cute, but they never recovered right here from
Speaker 3: one plucking when I was eight, Because you know, that
Speaker 3: was like the early two thousands when the girls wanted
Speaker 3: like four hairs in one line, and that was an eyebrow.
Speaker 2: So I was trying to Ti Charlie poof little scar
Speaker 2: on one of them, because like a vase fell on
Speaker 2: me at my aunties when I was a kid up
Speaker 2: to no good, up to no good, like reached out
Speaker 2: for stuff but I shouldn't as a kid, and the
Speaker 2: vase fell and hit my head.
Speaker 1: But other than that, no, they're gorgeous.
Speaker 3: I can see them through these glasses that are definitely
Speaker 3: real glasses, not the whip of the hair when you
Speaker 3: took them off, I'm dead.
Speaker 1: Do you think that Sean.
Speaker 3: Kingston's story would qualify for the second edition of Pure
Speaker 3: Innocent Fun? Or is it not pop culture iconic enough?
Speaker 3: Because there's some very iconic like pop culture moments in this.
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe for the second edition, you know we're going
Speaker 2: to dive into the two thousands, so my college years.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you think like he could make it in here?
Speaker 4: Perhaps? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay, because reading this, I really kind of just went
Speaker 3: on a journey of all different times. And I will
Speaker 3: say that without spoiling the book. Y'all, if you want
Speaker 3: to hear about pop culture, if you want to learn
Speaker 3: about IRA's life and his enemies and all types of
Speaker 3: Tea and his gay youth adult you definitely need to
Speaker 3: pick up your Innocent Fun. But also he is just
Speaker 3: a curator of pop culture and knows so much about it,
Speaker 3: and it will take you on a ride, it will
Speaker 3: remind you of things.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like a warm hug. I loved it
Speaker 1: so much.
Speaker 3: I especially loved the moments where you're talking about black
Speaker 3: television shows that like shaped your youth. And not to spoil,
Speaker 3: but one thing that did make me laugh really hard
Speaker 3: is when you were talking about the Cosby show Fresh
Speaker 3: Prince and Family Matters and how Family Matters was the
Speaker 3: one that got you emotional.
Speaker 1: Yes, And then when I really thought about it, I was.
Speaker 3: Like, no, it actually makes sense, like Steve Burkle and
Speaker 3: Carl did have this real relationship where Steve was a
Speaker 3: weirdo who was abandoned by his parents and then Carl
Speaker 3: and him have a real relationship. And I was like, yeah,
Speaker 3: that actually was beautiful. It was so you taught me
Speaker 3: to think about certain things, like in different ways. And
Speaker 3: it's a very fun book. So I don't know if
Speaker 3: Sean's going to make it into his sequel book, y'all,
Speaker 3: but Puritists and Fun you can get it anywhere books
Speaker 3: are sold. You can also listen to the book wherever
Speaker 3: audiobooks are sold. I read it cover to cover in
Speaker 3: one sitting, and I had a really fun time with us. Also,
Speaker 3: the way you ended, I'm not going to spoil it,
Speaker 3: but i'll tell you off green it made me cackle.
Speaker 1: I was like, sir, are you serious?
Speaker 3: And then I like flipped to the next pat, so
Speaker 3: I was like, he's not serious, and then I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: he's serious.
Speaker 4: So if you want to know it's appropriate for scams too,
Speaker 4: it is.
Speaker 3: If you want to know the cliffhanger that'll have you
Speaker 3: gagged and looking like there has to be more pages
Speaker 3: after this, and you're like, oh, this is really what
Speaker 3: you chose to do.
Speaker 4: So fun.
Speaker 3: But Ira, we always ask at the end of the show,
Speaker 3: where would you like to be found? Anything you want
Speaker 3: to plug?
Speaker 2: Find me in the bookstore, okay, pure Innocent fund. In
Speaker 2: the bookstore, Pure Innocent Fund. On Audible, wherever you listen
Speaker 2: to podcasts, or sorry, wherever you listen to audio books,
Speaker 2: or wherever you read books is where you can find
Speaker 2: the book. Oh and it was just announced that I'm
Speaker 2: hosting the thirtieth anniversary of This American Life at Try
Speaker 2: It backa film festival with and Ira and Ira, Ira
Speaker 2: Linka and Glass the Third and the Glass.
Speaker 1: Yes, right, okay, that's something not to be missed. And
Speaker 1: then social media profiles.
