Speaker 1: You are listening waiting on reparations production of I R Radio. Yo, Yo,
Speaker 1: what's up y'all? This dope knife and we are waiting
Speaker 1: on reparations? Hurry up, yo. We are the show rich
Speaker 1: in the gap between hip, pomp and politics. You know
Speaker 1: how it's been a long time left left you without it? Dope?
Speaker 1: How know you? I've been good. I've been good. I mean,
Speaker 1: we haven't seen each other since that show that we did.
Speaker 1: We did have an exfluent show down in Savannah. You
Speaker 1: have to go that. I was seeing the highlights of
Speaker 1: your tour. I've been well. Since then, I've been well.
Speaker 1: I'm wrestled for it's gotten off the tour when you
Speaker 1: were getting READI yeah, so I'm wrestling. I'm actually you know,
Speaker 1: you know how it goes when you're on the road
Speaker 1: and then you're like, man, I can't wait to get home.
Speaker 1: And then you're back home you're like, man, I'm tire
Speaker 1: of looking at all this. I want to go back
Speaker 1: up and yeah, yeah, yeah, yes. I defended my dissertation
Speaker 1: a week ago. It feels like it was months ago
Speaker 1: because probably I just blacked out the entire experience because
Speaker 1: it's terrifying, but yeah, so I am a doctor now,
Speaker 1: so that's crazy. But yeah, and then been tor in Birmingham, BC, Asheville,
Speaker 1: Savanna obviously. Um, and I just had a West coast
Speaker 1: tour announced like yesterday, I'm going out with a band
Speaker 1: called Holy f Word. Yeah they're really dope. But yeah,
Speaker 1: we're going from like Vancouver down to San Diego. Dates ten.
Speaker 1: You said next week, Yeah, oh say you just get
Speaker 1: at it. Yeah. So yeah, that's what un Well, it
Speaker 1: is election day today Georgia all across the state, and
Speaker 1: we are having some decent voter turnout from what I hear,
Speaker 1: we are, yeah, and so there's been a lot of
Speaker 1: conversations and go, oh, voters depression, wasn't that bad when
Speaker 1: it's like one, people are livid that their votes are
Speaker 1: trying to be taken away from them, and so they're
Speaker 1: coming out in greater numbers. UM. One survey showed that
Speaker 1: Georgians believed their vote matters, like to a degree that
Speaker 1: is higher than anywhere else in the country. Like Georgians
Speaker 1: really believed. Yeah, like folks in the state really believe
Speaker 1: their vote matters, Like I mean yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: And so we got people who were like really motivated
Speaker 1: to vote because they really feel like it counts and
Speaker 1: it matters more so than anywhere else in the country.
Speaker 1: And then we have tons of organizers people like the
Speaker 1: New Georgia Project and Fair Fight and Black Voters Matter, etcetera,
Speaker 1: registering touns of voter. I mean, like we got obviously
Speaker 1: everyone so were Stacy A. Baron's running for governor. We
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to expand Medicaid under her governorship. Um,
Speaker 1: there's like tons of tons and tons of uninsured Georgians.
Speaker 1: We have like one of the lowest insured rates in
Speaker 1: the country and then one of the highest maternal mortality
Speaker 1: rates too, and so like, um, that alone, I mean
Speaker 1: that alone could be world altering for so many people.
Speaker 1: But yeah, a lot of folks getting out the vote today,
Speaker 1: feeling excited, feeling empowered, cool. So on the topic of
Speaker 1: Medicaid and health insurance and our health generally. In this episode,
Speaker 1: we've teamed up with twenty three and me for a
Speaker 1: conversation for a conversation about DNA testing. Now you have
Speaker 1: twenty three, here is a DNA testing you think it?
Speaker 1: The guys, we already heard you do that episode about
Speaker 1: ancestry and things like that. That's not really what we're
Speaker 1: talking about today. See it's it's not necessarily limited to
Speaker 1: your ancestry. Like DNA testing can be used to gain
Speaker 1: insight on one's own health, certain things that you may
Speaker 1: be at risk for, and it can equip you with
Speaker 1: the information that you need, and you can equip you
Speaker 1: with the information that you need to make the necessary
Speaker 1: changes live your best life. You know, So we're cann
Speaker 1: alert you to your risk of type two diabetes, maculate generation,
Speaker 1: try to keep your eye health good, sailiac disease UM,
Speaker 1: if you might be a higher risk for chronic kidney
Speaker 1: disease UM late onset Alzheimer's UM, which definitely something I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about having, you know, multiple incidences of it in
Speaker 1: my family. But then you can see if you're at
Speaker 1: higher risk of Parkinson's, a trial defibrilation, which is kind
Speaker 1: of like a regular heartbeat. UM. There's all kinds of exema. Like,
Speaker 1: there's all sorts of things that you can discover. Nick
Speaker 1: kick it off. We're gonna start by recapping the story
Speaker 1: of legendary hip hop with user Jake Diller for visiting
Speaker 1: stuff of j Dillas story UM with his own health
Speaker 1: UM as well as preventative healthcare broadly and the power
Speaker 1: of knowing about the DNA. Yeah, now we've definitely mentioned
Speaker 1: j Blah on the show before. Just to recap you. So,
Speaker 1: Ja Billa was diagnosed with an incurable blood disease around
Speaker 1: two thousand two two thousand five. He underwent intensive treatment.
Speaker 1: I do believe he was misdiagnosed a couple of times,
Speaker 1: and twenty nine out of thirty one tracks from Dyla's
Speaker 1: uh last album Donuts were actually recorded in his hospital bed.
Speaker 1: He using the Boss SP three or three sampler and
Speaker 1: a small forty five record player as those friends bottom
Speaker 1: And it was released on his thirty second birthday. And
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't up you can't overstate the importance
Speaker 1: of that j Bila album Donuts. He can remember the
Speaker 1: first time you heard that? I yeah, I was mind blown.
Speaker 1: It's around the same time I was like a pretty
Speaker 1: young persons all the same time I discovered like m
Speaker 1: F Doom Cats like that that really expanded my idea
Speaker 1: of what hip hop can be and you know, sonically
Speaker 1: um and also resonated with a lot of how I
Speaker 1: initially got into hip hop, like through like adult swing,
Speaker 1: Cartoon of the Night, they play like a lot of
Speaker 1: lo fi sort of um like a lot of samples
Speaker 1: drawing from an earlier era, very nostalgic sounding and revolutionary
Speaker 1: with her. And so yeah, when I heard Donas, I
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, like hip hop is can
Speaker 1: can be so much. I mean he influenced. He influenced
Speaker 1: countless people like he pretty much like influenced hip hop producers,
Speaker 1: jazz musicians is partially responsible for, like neo soul is
Speaker 1: a genre, and as far as the people that he's
Speaker 1: worked with. When you're talking tribe called Quest Q Tip
Speaker 1: comment everybody, Erica Vadu, Quest love from the roots like everybody.
Speaker 1: So J Dilla is like a prolific, prolific producer, but
Speaker 1: we lost them early on thirty two years old. So
Speaker 1: Dilla was uninshort at the time and he didn't seek
Speaker 1: care until he was sacking. And there's disproportionate rates of disease, cancer,
Speaker 1: diabetes in the black community that could be mitigated. It's
Speaker 1: both new that they are risks and they felt, you know,
Speaker 1: in charge of their own health. Yeah, I mean, I
Speaker 1: mean so many people, even if you have insurance, you know,
Speaker 1: just don't go to a doctor until they're thick, and
Speaker 1: especially in the hip hop community and the black community,
Speaker 1: it's it's definitely like an issue. I mean, there's like
Speaker 1: a laundry list of preventative cares that you can take
Speaker 1: right Like you can eat, you can change your diet,
Speaker 1: and you can change your lifestyle and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, it's the more
Speaker 1: information that you have about, you knowin your health, the
Speaker 1: more aquiff you are when you do when misfortune does
Speaker 1: arise and you have to go into the healthcare system
Speaker 1: or you know, even unfortunate time to think about, Like
Speaker 1: I had multiple hospitalizations last year while I was pregnant,
Speaker 1: and um, you know that's a very exciting thing, a
Speaker 1: little scary, but you know it's going through something that
Speaker 1: you're really stoked about. But even you know, when you're
Speaker 1: in the hospital, my experience, I feel like it's also
Speaker 1: the same for a lot of people. Um, it feels
Speaker 1: like choices are just made for you. Like you go
Speaker 1: in and they're like we gotta run these tests and
Speaker 1: we're gonna do this treatment and this and that. This
Speaker 1: is the plan. Um. And so I think it's important
Speaker 1: for people to feel empowered to say, like, hey, I
Speaker 1: want information about this. I know I'm at risk for X,
Speaker 1: Y and Z. Let's talk about that. So they can
Speaker 1: really take control of those conversations where you know, the
Speaker 1: power dynamics feel very imbalanced. Were like you're talking to
Speaker 1: these medical experts who are like, you know, they got
Speaker 1: the game plan versus you that it's just like you're
Speaker 1: just there because you care about your health and you
Speaker 1: want to be well. Um, but coming into that conversation
Speaker 1: like Yo, I know what I'm gonna ask about, I
Speaker 1: know what my concerns are. I'm gonna speak up for myself.
Speaker 1: It's an important part of really taking advantage of like
Speaker 1: preventative health care and getting the health outcomes like you want,
Speaker 1: you want to see, so having yeah, sorry now I
Speaker 1: was just gonna add like I I also have like
Speaker 1: a from experience with that. My father is similar to
Speaker 1: j B's situation where he got diagnosed with a kidney
Speaker 1: condition and we found it out too late and he
Speaker 1: didn't really act on it until he was sick. And
Speaker 1: I remember the ins and outs of the hospital and
Speaker 1: the testing and trying to figure out what was wrong
Speaker 1: with them. You know, by the time we even you know,
Speaker 1: they could pinpoint what the actual issue was it was
Speaker 1: almost too late. Yeah, but I mean, thankfully there are
Speaker 1: opportunities to but certain conditions have insight into how your
Speaker 1: DNA can affect it likelihood for developing those conditions, and
Speaker 1: then you can you know, be more empowered to make
Speaker 1: healthier choices that can improve the you can improve your
Speaker 1: quality of life. Um, I think learning those lessons from
Speaker 1: our experiences and your experience with your dad and my
Speaker 1: experience in the hospital a bunch of times last here
Speaker 1: definitely a test um how important is to take that
Speaker 1: for racket staff and like, if you're dont learn something
Speaker 1: about yourself, something about your likelihood for different um conditions,
Speaker 1: you can like you know, make more informed and empowered choices.
Speaker 1: So pure, I mean, like I had another personal experience
Speaker 1: as well. You know, my father lost my grandmother, his mother,
Speaker 1: to Alzheimer's. He was just her. He was her primary
Speaker 1: caregiver at that time and it's currently the primary carebra
Speaker 1: faver primary caregiver for his partner, my stepmom, who also
Speaker 1: has Alzheimer's. And I've seen him close the way this
Speaker 1: impacts the family, having dealt with like really strong emotions
Speaker 1: observing you know, my stepmother's mental state evolved in the
Speaker 1: years since their diagnosis. But luckily my parents are runners
Speaker 1: and being physically activists really central to their lives, which
Speaker 1: has been found to help prevent and slow cognition impacts.
Speaker 1: So knowing that early, knowing that you have an increased
Speaker 1: likelihood of developing something like Alzheimer's, you can start off
Speaker 1: early on, you know, running, being busily active and making
Speaker 1: those lifestyle changes that can actually you know, completely change
Speaker 1: the course of your life, you know, if you if
Speaker 1: you've to have that info early on. So same thing
Speaker 1: with knowing if you're at risk with breast cancer and
Speaker 1: getting regular checkups and screenings and you know, get adjusting
Speaker 1: your diets to know that you're at risk of heart disease.
Speaker 1: Now it is you know, important that we remind you,
Speaker 1: Like DNA testing isn't in itself like recommending a treatment. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So on the topic of breast cancer, the TOTY three
Speaker 1: and me r C A one and b r C
Speaker 1: A two Genetic Health Risk Report is intended for use
Speaker 1: with adults to report three genetic variants and the d
Speaker 1: r C A one and b r C A two
Speaker 1: genes associated with the higher risk of developing breast or
Speaker 1: variant and prostate cancer. The report doesn't include variants and
Speaker 1: other genes linked to hereditary cancer, so it's not intended
Speaker 1: to diagnose any disease or tell you about your overall
Speaker 1: risk of developing disease. It's not intended to determine any treatments,
Speaker 1: and of course you know your results should be confirmed
Speaker 1: in a clinical setting before taking any medical off any
Speaker 1: medical actions, So it's not a sub institute for visits
Speaker 1: to healthcare professionals for recommended screenings are appropriate follow up UM.
Speaker 1: It can just kind of prompt you to consider UM
Speaker 1: lifestyle changes, what you want to talk about with your doctor,
Speaker 1: But ultimately you know it's important to go see a
Speaker 1: doctor and talk to them about you know, very soon
Speaker 1: as you concerned about now speaking of these twenty three
Speaker 1: in ME reports and DNA testing in general as a topic,
Speaker 1: like what are your general thoughts about that? I mean,
Speaker 1: like bringing back to proposing once again, if I had
Speaker 1: known that I was at increased risk for gestational diabetes
Speaker 1: while pregnant UM, that would at least have unsettled or
Speaker 1: at least would have settled some of the uncertainty of
Speaker 1: like simply not knowing when I went in to get
Speaker 1: my you know, blood tests, and I was like really nervous, Like, um,
Speaker 1: that uncertainty was almost as bad as a lot of
Speaker 1: the other health stuff I was going through. But but again,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I don't know if he caught the yelling
Speaker 1: at doctor, But again, like having that knowledge and feeling
Speaker 1: empowered like okay, like I could kind of imagine some
Speaker 1: different potentialities here and be able to have frank conversations
Speaker 1: with my doctors around that, that would have felt great.
Speaker 1: But you know, I got through it, So I hope
Speaker 1: other people don't have to deal with that same thing.
Speaker 1: But let's be frank about it. You know, we're we're
Speaker 1: both sitting here and we haven't taken the town ourselves
Speaker 1: for this episode's sake. Um, it was something that we
Speaker 1: both needed more data and more information on. And you know,
Speaker 1: everyone has their reasons of being skin issuggery with giving
Speaker 1: you know, just being frank with you handing over your
Speaker 1: DNA to a big company or something like that. So
Speaker 1: that's generally is my hesitation in doing it, is the
Speaker 1: fear of that and in the fear of my privacy
Speaker 1: and the fear of you know, like we talked about
Speaker 1: finding out our data, and it's just like wanting to
Speaker 1: make sure that your dad is in the right hands.
Speaker 1: You know that it actually is data that that's like
Speaker 1: a personal fear that I've had that was an obstacle
Speaker 1: in doing this because you know, like when we when
Speaker 1: we were approached for this, we were asked if we
Speaker 1: wanted to take the test. I didn't take it for
Speaker 1: that reason. And I got to say that through the
Speaker 1: course of of everything that we've read and everything that
Speaker 1: we've been looking at, I actually feel more comfortable with
Speaker 1: it now, and I actually do think I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: get the report done after this for all of the
Speaker 1: reasons that we've talked about them. Not a spring chicken
Speaker 1: of an m C. You know, like the whole thing
Speaker 1: would being like a rapper and m C and being
Speaker 1: in hip hop. This this sense of invulnerability, you know,
Speaker 1: because it's such a youthful thing. You can kind of
Speaker 1: get swept up in thinking that you're gonna be young
Speaker 1: forever and that you know you're gonna be fine and
Speaker 1: nothing's gonna hurt you, and not not taking your health seriously.
Speaker 1: And again, you know, it's not something you should just
Speaker 1: think about when you're getting older, but like we've been
Speaker 1: saying the smell about preventative measure and preventative care. So
Speaker 1: the suitor that you start looking into things like that,
Speaker 1: even even if you don't go in the route of
Speaker 1: finding out your DNA, but if you take a proactive
Speaker 1: step in your health and maintaining it and making sure
Speaker 1: that you're in the you know, the best condition that
Speaker 1: you possibly could be in, that's always important. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: like people tell you all the time, Oh, you need
Speaker 1: to eat right, Oh you need to exercise, Oh you
Speaker 1: need to keep your blood pressure down, and limit your sugar.
Speaker 1: But when you have like a concrete reason, like oh
Speaker 1: I met I know I'm at an increased risk for this,
Speaker 1: like that can really get you going, like, Okay, I
Speaker 1: really do need to hit the gym. I do need
Speaker 1: to be I don't know, I'm drinking more water or
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Because it's not just this abstract, you know,
Speaker 1: just people bombarding you with advice you didn't ask for.
Speaker 1: It's like really tied to your personal life. And so
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's a big benefit. And I
Speaker 1: totally understand why, particularly within you know, the circles where
Speaker 1: we move, there's a lot of just medical hesitancy generally, um,
Speaker 1: you know, just given the legacy of things like just
Speaker 1: there's been there's I don't even working to do it
Speaker 1: because like there's mad, crazy things that have happened in
Speaker 1: our history, in our past and make people like I
Speaker 1: don't know about doctors though, but you know, putting that
Speaker 1: information directly into your hands, um, so you can decide
Speaker 1: what to do with it. It's not necessarily like, you know,
Speaker 1: whatever you gotta do with your doctor. If you don't
Speaker 1: like go to see doctor, I get it, you should go.
Speaker 1: But if you take the information and at least start
Speaker 1: making different choices in your personal life with regards to
Speaker 1: your diet, with the cards, your exercise, like there you go.
Speaker 1: You know, that's that's empowerment right there. But I definitely
Speaker 1: drove a little bit of my opencerch at first, Like
Speaker 1: I don't know doctor's medicine. I just like you know,
Speaker 1: like I was saying about being the hospital, it's just
Speaker 1: been so nerve wracking to like and overwhelming to like
Speaker 1: take in frol of my health. But I kind of
Speaker 1: get it now, you know. Like no, I was gonna
Speaker 1: add on to that, like you for people who haven't
Speaker 1: been in the like healthcare system and haven't had to
Speaker 1: deal with it yet. It's one of those things where
Speaker 1: it's like like you don't you don't know until you know,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, once you're in it, Shoot,
Speaker 1: the more information that you're arm going, the the easier
Speaker 1: it is to get through. I'm not saying it's easy
Speaker 1: at all, but it's like, the more that you know
Speaker 1: about your own health, it can save you so much
Speaker 1: time and money and like, to be honest with you, heartache,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, I mean like for like I think
Speaker 1: it probably like nine percent of the time being in
Speaker 1: the hospital. It's like one of the lower points of
Speaker 1: a person's life, right, Like nobody wants to be there
Speaker 1: unless you're like, yeah, I'm having a maybe it's outside it.
Speaker 1: But think about the fact that that medical head to
Speaker 1: dude that you know, people don't want to go to
Speaker 1: the people don't want to get these you know, blood
Speaker 1: tests and things. If you are proactive about lifestyle choices,
Speaker 1: you can avoid that larger unpleasantness of being in the hospital.
Speaker 1: Um because you you know, had the condition that ran
Speaker 1: unchecked and now it's really really at firstly impacting you. Um.
Speaker 1: So on the flip side. It's like, you know, I
Speaker 1: didn't really I was like no, no about this because
Speaker 1: like of like skepticism about doctors and hospitals. But having
Speaker 1: this information can help you avoid deep intentions with it,
Speaker 1: UM if you if you really want to, like, all right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get my life right, I'm gonna do what
Speaker 1: I need to for myself and my health for my
Speaker 1: family who wants me to live a happy and full life. Right.
Speaker 1: So that's tackful. So yeah, I mean, at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, everybody has to do with rank for
Speaker 1: them and everybody has to do what's comfortable for them.
Speaker 1: This is just one of different avenues that you can
Speaker 1: look into UM on this particular issue of your health,
Speaker 1: DNA testing. It's not the be all and end all.
Speaker 1: And also know you might even be thrown off because
Speaker 1: we're talking about twenty three and me and you're thinking, man,
Speaker 1: but I thought that was ancestry and whatnot. And it's
Speaker 1: you know that you can do more with the knowledge
Speaker 1: of your DNA than just find out who you know
Speaker 1: what your ancestry is. And that's part of what this
Speaker 1: is all about. It's just a cool Black people are
Speaker 1: at higher risk of diabetes, heart disease, sickle cell cancer.
Speaker 1: I mean, these are all reasons to be proactive about it.
Speaker 1: And also, and I'm sure Mariah agree with me on this,
Speaker 1: we're advocates of mental health, and in our communities we
Speaker 1: have a laundry list of things that we're stressing about,
Speaker 1: that we're worried about from day to day, and don't
Speaker 1: think for a second that your health concerns aren't adding
Speaker 1: onto that. So it's important also to consider I think
Speaker 1: the relationship between our physical health and our overall well being,
Speaker 1: inclusive of mental health, and so being able to like
Speaker 1: go in and have that empowered conversation can have you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know, like a sense of self esteem. I
Speaker 1: don't always say building, but you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Like you you feel a little more power. Do you
Speaker 1: feel a little more confident because you're armed with information?
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, I think that's like a
Speaker 1: universal principle if you're going into something like all right,
Speaker 1: I got this information to draw off of, like preparation
Speaker 1: itself for whatever it is that you have to deal with. UM.
Speaker 1: I think I'm definitely you know, going back to the
Speaker 1: example of pregnancy, there's so so much uncertainty, so many
Speaker 1: things you're just not and it's it's not just like
Speaker 1: the physical toll of my knees are aching or whatever.
Speaker 1: It's always like mentally it takes a lot out of you.
Speaker 1: But you know, it's always it's always easier to talk
Speaker 1: about things when you wrap them, at least for me.
Speaker 1: What do we mean? What about you? Mariety? You feel
Speaker 1: you feel like we could, You feel like we could
Speaker 1: bring this home. I suppose I am a rapper, but
Speaker 1: I guess this is the big test of time. If
Speaker 1: I can wrap about uh DNA knowledge, I can wrap
Speaker 1: at anything. So let's get it. Ye oh uh uh
Speaker 1: uh we over here waiting no reparations. I'm tired of
Speaker 1: taking all of these little adventures. I'm trying to take
Speaker 1: a week off. Visit mccardi out there, just my dentist,
Speaker 1: get my blood pressure check and get them perfect. Sure,
Speaker 1: the uncertainty is a pretty quirky thing, but love, love, long,
Speaker 1: and prosperous offer an injury. I'm gonna drinking too much pobo?
Speaker 1: Should I compare to to how's my blood sugar? Should
Speaker 1: I stop eating the burger king for number? Knowing the
Speaker 1: story is going, it's the getherty, but never ever need
Speaker 1: to be scared because see a little bit knowledge getting
Speaker 1: out for you to prepare to eat your carrots to
Speaker 1: some lamps would ever take stay up. It is some faith,
Speaker 1: but there's some indicators there from take point, A lot
Speaker 1: of information hidden right under the radar. It's mark of conversation,
Speaker 1: some contemplations and my though changes. I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: up to you. So what you're gonna, what you're gonna,
Speaker 1: what you gonna, what you're gonna do? All right, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: waiting our reparations. It's obviously fresh a podcast with hip
Speaker 1: hop and politics, can nack. I know everybody tough and
Speaker 1: they be in on their chat, but don't worry bout
Speaker 1: your health. You better go get you with chat gets
Speaker 1: some p s A, al shams and diabetes being play.
Speaker 1: But don't be afraid to go and let them check
Speaker 1: your d n A. If you dive in deep, you
Speaker 1: find the factors that you need to change so you
Speaker 1: can see a doctor or just cut back off the
Speaker 1: e J. I don't even play. I'm about to go
Speaker 1: and just be selfish. Get me a report and see
Speaker 1: just if I got a health risk. Because when they'd
Speaker 1: be creeping up. They're moving on the stealth tip and
Speaker 1: with the knowledge, I can see somebody who can help it.
Speaker 1: But make your own decision with whatever you choose. I
Speaker 1: understand the reservations. I was hesitant to, but when I
Speaker 1: look into the subject and I learned what they do
Speaker 1: and made me comfortable enough to go and learn me
Speaker 1: the truth. Shucks. We gotta leave this iss funny as
Speaker 1: it could be. And that's why we did a team
Speaker 1: up with twenty three and b don'te Knife and Lan
Speaker 1: Franko or they call him a riot and she did
Speaker 1: a dissertation that she got a PhD. And I didn't
Speaker 1: do none of that. But I am n m C
Speaker 1: and I'm notting on my eyes and I'm crossing on
Speaker 1: my tees. What I told you, they ain't knowing what
Speaker 1: they're facing. Take care of yourself. Love. Waiting on Reparations,
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah you yet, Yeah you get dope yo,
Speaker 1: yo yo, the dope knife. And you have been listening
Speaker 1: to Waiting on Reparations that week. You liked our story.
