Speaker 1: Okay, So look, I don't know if you know this,
Speaker 1: but Russia has eleven time zones, Like y'all don't realize
Speaker 1: how big Russia is. It's like you, I remember, it's
Speaker 1: the eleven times America got three four if you count Hawaii,
Speaker 1: which I guess is America.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So but mainland America it's only three times zoned. Russia
Speaker 1: got eleven, y'all? Do you understand how big that must be?
Speaker 1: I heard on this other show called The Take It's
Speaker 1: an al Jazeer pod. The comparison was like, the distance
Speaker 1: from tip of Russia all the way to the Pacific
Speaker 1: Ocean is the same distance from Russia to Chicago. Russia
Speaker 1: that big, which would mean that you can't control that
Speaker 1: from one place. That mean your legend gotta be way
Speaker 1: larger than your action will pull.
Speaker 2: And how you do that?
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, remember this is a hood of politics.
Speaker 1: You get respect through fear. I mean, you could try
Speaker 1: to earn everybody love, but sometime power to I mean,
Speaker 1: everybody up under you just as hungry as you are.
Speaker 2: But if they scared, that's a different story.
Speaker 1: So you gotta have shooters that got shooters they got
Speaker 1: to know that you like, look, I wish I wish
Speaker 1: one of you jokers would. I don't care how long
Speaker 1: I known you. I don't care who you are. I
Speaker 1: don't care what you I don't care what you've been on.
Speaker 1: Don't don't bring don't you don't want to smoke with me?
Speaker 1: Like I saw a clip with an old clip of Gucci.
Speaker 1: He's like, look, man, now bring it to me. I'm
Speaker 1: with all that. I'm with all that.
Speaker 2: You got the right one?
Speaker 1: Because if you don't get it, the old phrase used
Speaker 1: to be like, hey, man, you got the wrong one.
Speaker 2: I am not the one.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, which is usually the warning
Speaker 1: to be like hey, don't play with me, like I'm
Speaker 1: gonna break you. He's like, no, nigga, Like he just
Speaker 1: put a twist on it, like, no, I'm the right one.
Speaker 2: I love this.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to wipe y'all out. I want it all.
Speaker 1: I want to smoke. I mean, my scout, just one
Speaker 1: city in a place that's it's so big, Like, how
Speaker 1: do you control it? You gotta be scared of me.
Speaker 1: You gotta know I'll poison you. I'll throw you out
Speaker 1: a window. But sometimes yoe, it be your own people?
Speaker 2: Ain't that right? Black politics?
Speaker 1: Y'all? All right, y'all, welcome to another crimea River episode.
Speaker 1: Nobody do At least I didn't know this was gonna
Speaker 1: be like my Fast and Furious franchise.
Speaker 2: This f ten out the mug. Too fast, too furious?
Speaker 2: You feel me? It's about family where.
Speaker 1: I still swear that the Fast and Furious they done
Speaker 1: lost the thread a long time ago. Just physics don't matter,
Speaker 1: nor just storyline. You know, we just gonna drop drop
Speaker 1: a car. We're gonna attach a car to a helicopter.
Speaker 1: Nigga like, like, what are we doing?
Speaker 3: Guys?
Speaker 1: What are we doing? We're gonna save the world with
Speaker 1: our fast cars? Anyway, Crime a River. I don't know
Speaker 1: what number this is? This this did it be your
Speaker 1: own people? Because man, have you ever heard that phrase?
Speaker 1: Answer me?
Speaker 2: I wait, oh wait, this is a one directional conversation.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: It's just essentially like you know, when your oh, when
Speaker 1: your own folk, when they cracked the joke, when they
Speaker 1: drag you, when they take you out.
Speaker 2: You'd be like, dang it be your own people.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know this, but the police
Speaker 1: don't be solving crimes. I'm pretty sure you know that
Speaker 1: the police don't be preventing crime either. The police looking
Speaker 1: for somebody who know what's happening and try to convince
Speaker 1: them to snitch.
Speaker 2: They don't.
Speaker 1: Don't let CSI fool you. The police don't solve nothing.
Speaker 1: And if you go into one of them crime labs,
Speaker 1: you know where they looking at DNA analysis, you expecting
Speaker 1: to see somebody gorgeous inside of that thing, in a
Speaker 1: full face of makeup like CSI Miami.
Speaker 2: He'll tell you.
Speaker 1: I hope you understand that that is not how that
Speaker 1: lab look with the cool neon lights in the back.
Speaker 1: You feel me like, come on, y'all's that ain't how
Speaker 1: it go. And again I need you to understand, the
Speaker 1: police don't solve nothing. It's always your own people that's
Speaker 1: who take you out every time. But if you can
Speaker 1: scare your own people enough, maybe they'll think twice about
Speaker 1: what they doing.
Speaker 2: I saw this clip with fifty.
Speaker 1: Now, some of y'all may think that's an old nigga
Speaker 1: ay oh, but the legend of his ga thanks and
Speaker 1: the continual prowess in it is, it's.
Speaker 2: Just it's so great.
Speaker 1: So he was in this interview, and the thought was okay.
Speaker 1: The interviewer was like, yo, if you if you hit me,
Speaker 1: like if you slap me in the face, nigga, it's up.
Speaker 2: This is what I'm gonna do. I'm like, I'm about
Speaker 2: to be rich.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go tell my other homies to slap me
Speaker 1: more and I'm gonna say you did it, and I'm
Speaker 1: pay him a little bit slap me more and say
Speaker 1: you did it. We're all gonna get rich. And fifty
Speaker 1: was like, listen, that don't bother me at all, because
Speaker 1: this is what I do. I'll go find your own
Speaker 1: homies and pay them the total of what you would
Speaker 1: have paid all of them collectively. I'll just pay them
Speaker 1: individually that number. And then all of a sudden, nobody
Speaker 1: remembers anything. Do you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 2: He say, listen.
Speaker 1: Then he got real serious and it's like in the
Speaker 1: most New York passion. He goes, hey, man, how much
Speaker 1: you think it costs today to get somebody murdered? And
Speaker 1: he just kind of like cleans his teeth real quick,
Speaker 1: and he was just like about five six thousand dollars
Speaker 1: and like like you have to understand like foods will
Speaker 1: put you under the ground for a PS four, not
Speaker 1: even a five. You, I mean you in the right hood,
Speaker 1: like you understand, like a four could still could do it,
Speaker 1: and Nintendo Switch could do it. A couple of bands
Speaker 1: all your A couple bands your man's will forget everything.
Speaker 1: That's your boy, that's your hood, that's your homie you
Speaker 1: grew up with.
Speaker 2: What do you what do you? What do you?
Speaker 3: What?
Speaker 2: Y'all?
Speaker 1: What y'all making them up? I mean, you know you
Speaker 1: you pushing away for him? How much you how much?
Speaker 1: What's your cut? You get that all right? Nigga?
Speaker 2: I'a pay you double murder this nigga like it's just
Speaker 2: there's no.
Speaker 1: It's just bread. I don't care who you signed up for.
Speaker 1: It's just bread. So I know you hear goons in
Speaker 1: them like real niggas. A lot of these young rappers
Speaker 1: or even the OLG rappers. You gotta remember them old rappers,
Speaker 1: them nineties rappers, nineties gangsters. They cut from a different cloth,
Speaker 1: like they believed in something like they different Now. Of
Speaker 1: course you got some exceptions when you got young dudes
Speaker 1: out here. That's like, you know, I bleed for this rag,
Speaker 1: I bled for this color like niggas have died for this,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So there are still a
Speaker 1: small remnant of dudes that are out here like that,
Speaker 1: But that ain't the normal case. If the bread right,
Speaker 1: that's you, they get into the bag. You can't just
Speaker 1: believe that these niggas is like down for the car. Okay,
Speaker 1: how long y'all been honies, You can't. You can't believe
Speaker 1: just that that everybody just is bought into the cause
Speaker 1: everybody with the shits they get into the bag. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's that's just the rule. So you gotta keep them
Speaker 1: niggas happy. You gotta keep them on payroll. And if
Speaker 1: they step out of line, you can't just threaten to
Speaker 1: take their money out. You got to threaten to take
Speaker 1: their money. They life, they family life, their children. Like, nigga,
Speaker 1: you gotta get out this hood because as the hommy
Speaker 1: d smokes say, one call and the nigga's gonna hydro plane.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. He's like, Nigga, if you.
Speaker 1: Get out of line, I can make one call and
Speaker 1: I don't care about your toddler, nigga, like I don't
Speaker 1: care about none of your baby's mamas. They all finna
Speaker 1: be childless like there are some niggas that just don't.
Speaker 2: Care.
Speaker 1: So you have to be able to convince these people
Speaker 1: that you like Gucci, I'm with it all. You chose
Speaker 1: the right one. Don't do not step out of line
Speaker 1: because you can't always count on You got your people
Speaker 1: that signed up for it.
Speaker 2: You can count on them to an extent.
Speaker 1: But then you got to have some people that was like, no, nigga,
Speaker 1: pay me right, and if the bread right, I do
Speaker 1: whatever you need me to do. But you gotta know
Speaker 1: that if somebody else got the bread, nigga.
Speaker 2: We'll do that too.
Speaker 1: But if you the type of leader where your mans
Speaker 1: could actually turn on you, oh you done showing weakness.
Speaker 1: Them niggas is taking notes. I mean why wouldn't they.
Speaker 1: Now we know you can get touched. I mean we
Speaker 1: all know you could get but now we know a
Speaker 1: catalog your reign is it's a matter of time. There's
Speaker 1: a grand opening and the grand closing. Nobody up forever.
Speaker 1: So if that's the case, then you better have a
Speaker 1: succession plan set up. If you build a whole, you
Speaker 1: build the whole thing around you, around your personality. You
Speaker 1: ain't got no succession plan set up.
Speaker 2: Bruh.
Speaker 1: Then that means it's easy to top of this whole thing.
Speaker 1: I just got to get you out the way, and
Speaker 1: everybody got a price. Now here's where the dope crossover
Speaker 1: comes in. Jake han Rahim he got a new show
Speaker 1: out called Russian Oligard right, because you know he'd be
Speaker 1: doing that them deep cuts of journalism, and he like, look,
Speaker 1: man Dizzy's rushing olive guards that keep dying, they keep
Speaker 1: falling out of first story windows. Now you heard what
Speaker 1: I said, they falling out first story windows. How you
Speaker 1: fall out of a first story window and die? Because
Speaker 1: you could fill in the blank. Why you think they dying?
Speaker 1: I think I know. I think you know too. So
Speaker 1: these are those fair warnings to those who feel like
Speaker 1: they may have something to say. The old lad like
Speaker 1: the hommy legally height calling big bang pee.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Just in case you're thinking about letting something come out
Speaker 1: of your mouth, you should ask what happened, you know
Speaker 1: to old Sasha over here? You feel me Sasha have
Speaker 1: been an oligard yas his whole his family been nobility
Speaker 1: in Russia. Since you know Tzar Alexander that nigga dead now.
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. I heard he fell out
Speaker 1: of a window right his nigga proving one one election
Speaker 1: by eighty percent. You know what I'm saying, Oh word,
Speaker 1: you won by eighty percent. Yeah yeah, maybe keep your
Speaker 1: mouth shut about him. But if you keep them goons
Speaker 1: around you, you know what I'm saying, at some point, one
Speaker 1: of them niggas might be like, you know what, I'm
Speaker 1: kind of tired of the ship.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm a shot calling myself.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like I'm somewhat of a
Speaker 1: gangstter myself, Like I don't understand why I got to
Speaker 1: keep playing it low with you. And oftentimes when they
Speaker 1: get that close to you and their goons, they see
Speaker 1: how messy you are.
Speaker 3: You know, when you when.
Speaker 1: You know where the body is buried, you know you
Speaker 1: at some point like things might start changing. I mean
Speaker 1: that's you know. Look, I don't I look. I see
Speaker 1: what you presenting to the world, and I get it.
Speaker 1: I'm with it, you feel me, But like I know
Speaker 1: where you lay ahead.
Speaker 2: I know your weaknesses.
Speaker 1: I nigga, I know this shit like, so don't like, look,
Speaker 1: don't bring that energy to me homeboy, like I'm different,
Speaker 1: to which if you the boss, you need to respond like, okay,
Speaker 1: well let's just see how different you are. So let's
Speaker 1: let's get to it. Let's talk about the Wagner Group.
Speaker 1: Y'all ready boom? So look, so a few weeks back, uh,
Speaker 1: there was somewhat of a mutant, the Wagner Group, which
Speaker 1: I'm about to explain who they were. They decided to
Speaker 1: turn their forces away from the Ukraine and back towards Moscow.
Speaker 1: So they they was, they was marching. It really had
Speaker 1: very little, very little resistance on their way there. Now
Speaker 1: your next question should be, if you wasn't watching TV,
Speaker 1: who is the what is the Wagner Group? Well, the
Speaker 1: Wagner Group is they hired guns. Remember I told you
Speaker 1: you had you got your crew, you got your squad,
Speaker 1: but then you got them dudes that are like, we're
Speaker 1: here for the bag and we're crazy with them. The
Speaker 1: niggas you just pay like where it's like I need
Speaker 1: y'all to go out there and just brawlers. I'll pay
Speaker 1: y'all though you feel me now. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you notice, but private armies are a thing for nations.
Speaker 1: We you know, we have one, right you know who
Speaker 1: run it is Betsy Devas's brother.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Betsy Devas.
Speaker 1: The the Department of Education. Lady her brother own own
Speaker 1: an army. Now you would ask yourself, but I thought
Speaker 1: the Armed forces was something noble, and.
Speaker 2: You know you sign up.
Speaker 1: We have four you know, and our brave troops out there,
Speaker 1: you know, protecting our freedoms. Now, I don't know if
Speaker 1: you notice, you might. I figure you pretty politically savvy
Speaker 1: if you listen to my show. But if you don't know,
Speaker 1: let me put you home. When America says we've only
Speaker 1: had ten casualties and this was a success, they're reporting
Speaker 1: on people actually in the armed forces. However, it's not
Speaker 1: our actual armed forces are the only people out there.
Speaker 1: This man, Erik Prince, who is Betsy Devas's brother, has
Speaker 1: an army out there that are the US government contracts with.
Speaker 1: So when you say only ten, we only had ten
Speaker 1: American casualties, you're only reporting on the armed forces. You're
Speaker 1: not reporting on how many other Americans died that was
Speaker 1: part of Erik Prince's army. So they get to say
Speaker 1: they get to tell us like because that's all they
Speaker 1: have to do. Because remember you're a private company. Well,
Speaker 1: I mean, if y'all die out there, that's I mean,
Speaker 1: that's different. Like that's y you supposed to report on that.
Speaker 1: We ain't got a report on that. So when they
Speaker 1: get on the news and be like, yo, this was success,
Speaker 1: we had very little American casualties. No, you had very
Speaker 1: little armed forces casualties. The other four hundred thousand people
Speaker 1: that died, now, of course that's an exaggeration, but we'll
Speaker 1: make it more feasible. The other three hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: two one thousand men and women that died in the
Speaker 1: line of duty weren't in the line of duty. They
Speaker 1: just worked for this mercenary. So when you commit crimes
Speaker 1: against humanity, when you do these horrible Geneva code breaking
Speaker 1: military atrocities, when you breaking into houses and burning food's
Speaker 1: houses and taking women and children and eating their food,
Speaker 1: you know, marching your mud all off, they rug, well,
Speaker 1: that's not that's not the US military. Y'ah, y'all following me,
Speaker 1: do you know how good it is for army like
Speaker 1: against take it to the streets and that I don't
Speaker 1: know them niggas, that's not mine. They ain't one of ours.
Speaker 1: I mean them niggas. But they them niggas is brothers,
Speaker 1: like they just they the homies. I mean, but I
Speaker 1: don't control them. They're not on a set I mean right,
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, is it?
Speaker 2: It's brilliant. You just hire an army.
Speaker 1: So the Wagner Group is an army that Russia has
Speaker 1: used a ton of times. It's a private mercenary army,
Speaker 1: I mean, and they are guilty of trillions of crimes
Speaker 1: against humanity in Africa, in Iran, in the Middle East.
Speaker 1: I mean, just disgusting, movie level, like nineties.
Speaker 2: Movie level villains. Just a mission impossible.
Speaker 1: Just think of the corniest, most cliche evil villain petrocities.
Speaker 1: That's what that's that's what you do, right, you just
Speaker 1: used to do that anyway. So the leader of this
Speaker 1: group is this guy named Progosion. Now progross it from
Speaker 1: the hood. Let me let me like, y'all up about Progosion. Okay, Pregosion.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say his name right because I'll speak Russian.
Speaker 1: I'll be trying. I'm sorry, I don't mean to be disrespectful.
Speaker 1: Let me line y'all up about this Nick. So y'all
Speaker 1: got to know his backstory to understand how he even
Speaker 1: connected with old lad So check this out, goes you
Speaker 1: from the hood, I mean, stick up kid, just.
Speaker 2: A street dude, robberies.
Speaker 1: Went to jail for murder, right, he did time for murder,
Speaker 1: and nigga, he murdered this old lady with a knife.
Speaker 1: Do you know how crazy you got to be to
Speaker 1: murder somebody with a knife that's up close?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 1: So he he from the block, right, So of course
Speaker 1: he owns an army. Now he became wealthy. How he
Speaker 1: become wealthy, Well, he used to have his hot dogs
Speaker 1: stand y'all listening to me. His nigga was outside, you know,
Speaker 1: selling a lot.
Speaker 2: You feel me?
Speaker 1: He was out there like don't go, don't go dog, right,
Speaker 1: he was outside selling hot dogs. Which I said it
Speaker 1: like that because that's some West Coast shit. But he
Speaker 1: was just outside on the corner selling hot dogs. And
Speaker 1: one story about how he got wealthy is uh, he
Speaker 1: saved money from that opened up a restaurant and then
Speaker 1: he started Then he went from the restaurant to the catering.
Speaker 1: But when he had the dope little hot dog restaurant,
Speaker 1: a young shooter that was a part of the KGB
Speaker 1: who was like really a talented upshot used to come
Speaker 1: over there all the time named Vladimir Putin.
Speaker 2: And Vladimir really liked homeboy.
Speaker 1: And as Vladimir went up, he was like, dude, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna call the homeboy I remember from the streets. Man,
Speaker 1: they come come cater these parties. So he used to
Speaker 1: cater all the birthdays. He got a little nickname that
Speaker 1: he was Vladimir's cook. That was his little nickname. He
Speaker 1: was talking about, man, you're talking about the chef to
Speaker 1: cook nigga, the cook got it. Cook got an army
Speaker 1: with a cook from the hood. So some believe one
Speaker 1: story is that's how he became out. He came up, like,
Speaker 1: saved his money from the hot dog stand, built a
Speaker 1: built a catering business, and then he bought an army.
Speaker 1: Now and look, real ones stick together, no new friends.
Speaker 2: They've been friends that long. So when when vlad got up.
Speaker 3: He got up?
Speaker 1: Or the other story is which I both tend to
Speaker 1: believe because I know hood niggas is here, y'all rich
Speaker 1: from gambling. This nigga used to run casinos. And guess
Speaker 1: who was in charge of the Ministry of gambling. Who
Speaker 1: used to be over the casinos in Russia. Oh my homeboy, Vladimir.
Speaker 1: So here's what I think. It's both to see all
Speaker 1: of the above, because if you listen, you gotta have
Speaker 1: you gotta have both happening.
Speaker 2: You never know which one of these licks is gonna land.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I think it's both, And for y'all to think it's
Speaker 1: for studies some of this, like normal mainstream media to
Speaker 1: think that it's one or the other means like, oh, nigga,
Speaker 1: y'all not from the streets.
Speaker 2: No, listen, it's both.
Speaker 1: Okay, man, every hood entrepreneur I know had another business,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. There was like, oh, nigga,
Speaker 1: I'm a plumber. Oh yeah, no, I'll be doing construction.
Speaker 1: I got this thing you know where I'll be a

Speaker 1: fucking up. He not helping me get the things I

Speaker 1: populoust vote.
Speaker 2: It's the elites now you've Lad, you cool? He not dumb.
Speaker 2: It's the elites. Y'all just out here.

Speaker 1: you got us out here looking like herbs, and I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna keep doing this.
Speaker 2: I don't take ls.
Speaker 1: But then he say his troops got attacked when the
Speaker 1: Ministry of Defense ordered an airstrike, and according to Progrosion,
Speaker 1: the Ministry of Defense don't like how I'm talking. I'm
Speaker 1: making them look bad in front of the boss. I'm
Speaker 1: not making you look bad, nigga, you are bad. The
Speaker 1: Minister of Defense is like, if you don't shut your
Speaker 1: ass up, man, you don't even go here. You just
Speaker 1: we pay you to be here, and stop talking about
Speaker 1: our guys. You know you need to chill.
Speaker 3: Bro.
Speaker 1: I think you think you cool just because you and
Speaker 1: Vlad go back. But nigga, don't think you can't get touched.
Speaker 1: That's the Minister of Defence. It's like you shut your
Speaker 1: whole ass up, nigga, you all have several seats. You
Speaker 1: know what, man, look were playing.
Speaker 2: We don't know what it is. We're not with the shits.
Speaker 2: Watch this boom airstripe.
Speaker 1: That's maybe, but we know for a fact that that's
Speaker 1: the Minister of Defence's attitude where it's like they are
Speaker 1: looking at lad being like we lose it because of this, nigga.
Speaker 1: He like we lose it for of this nigga. Now,
Speaker 1: if you' Vladimir Putin, there's a couple of ways you
Speaker 1: gotta play this if you're gonna stay on top, because
Speaker 1: right now it seem like, oh it's it's looks like
Speaker 1: it's disloyalty and money camp home. What's wrong with your
Speaker 1: wrong with your soldiers home? You can't get your soldiers
Speaker 1: to get along? So if you if you Ukraine, you
Speaker 1: got a big old bag of popcorn watching this shaking
Speaker 1: them like sunflower seeds out here, My nigga, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Check you check, you check, you check your check.
Speaker 1: It's like shaking your sunflower seeds like dice popping them
Speaker 1: in your mouth. You feel me, like, let's see what's good, hommy,
Speaker 1: y'all better figure this shit out. Man out here making
Speaker 1: memes about how y'all can't get along. So if you,
Speaker 1: if you've lad, you know everybody watching how you play this.
Speaker 1: You can't keep your holes in check. I mean, because
Speaker 1: that's what they look like to us. You can't keep
Speaker 1: your holes in check. Or you play the game like
Speaker 1: worry about at home? You saw all under control? Y
Speaker 1: I got my house in check. You know, sometimes sometimes
Speaker 1: the bitches don't get along. You feel me, you know,
Speaker 1: we just got to see what's good? You feel me,
Speaker 1: y'all work this out. I want to see you guys
Speaker 1: work this out now, y'all, y'all work this out now,
Speaker 1: like okay, no reason to be rude.
Speaker 2: Now let me now, let me hear what you got
Speaker 2: to say.
Speaker 1: You play the big daddy role where it's like, don't
Speaker 1: worry about it, y'all like I got it. Let me
Speaker 1: let me hear what they talking about. Okay, you mad?
Speaker 1: You ain't get your toy?
Speaker 2: Does that? Is that not?
Speaker 1: You don't feel you don't feel loved? Okay, now look
Speaker 1: at your friend, look at the Ministry of defense. Tell
Speaker 1: them how you feel, now, Ministry Defense, how does that
Speaker 1: make you got to play it like you running things
Speaker 1: and at the same time being like, well, y'all, you know,
Speaker 1: if you don't figure this shit out, you dying right,
Speaker 1: because I noticed neither one of you are blaming me
Speaker 1: because you got more sense than that. I mean, that's
Speaker 1: just what happened, right, So they trying to work it out,
Speaker 1: finally proroging them and it's like, man, fuck this, So
Speaker 1: they start rolling out.
Speaker 2: They marched. They marched on their way to Moscow.
Speaker 1: So they first hit this city called h rostaband rostav,
Speaker 1: Rostovbandan something like that. Either way, it sounded like Rosta
Speaker 1: to me, and I was like, this is great. Took
Speaker 1: over a military base over there. And again you gotta
Speaker 1: remember the niggas that got recruited to fight for the
Speaker 1: Russian Army ain't soldiers.
Speaker 2: They just dudes.
Speaker 1: You pull them niggas out the bar. They got the
Speaker 1: MODELO bellies, you feel me. They was like, well shit,
Speaker 1: I mean whatever, nigga, like, do you they done moved
Speaker 1: through that Russian Russian Army the ones that was really
Speaker 1: with the ships tried to get them. They donet shot
Speaker 1: down a helicopter. Y'all listening to me. This Wagner group
Speaker 1: hired guns like you hired these goons. But then you
Speaker 1: remember they goons, right, they shot They shot some jets
Speaker 1: out the sky on the way to Moscow. Now the
Speaker 1: next question is what was your plan when you if
Speaker 1: you if you actually got to Moscow, what was gonna
Speaker 1: be your plan? And really, like the military, the police,
Speaker 1: nobody was really stopping him. They was almost like, oh, okay, nigga,
Speaker 1: Like I mean, I mean, we keep kind of on
Speaker 1: so you could pull out, like I'm not gonna do it,
Speaker 1: but if you could pull it off, It's been forty
Speaker 1: years we've been dealing with this nigga.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So like I mean, And then the rest of the
Speaker 1: world was like, yo, is this Do we finally see
Speaker 1: a kink in Vladimir's armor? Is he finally showing weakness?
Speaker 1: Is it finally Could it be a brand new day?
Speaker 1: Because it looked like a rebellion. It looked like a
Speaker 1: military rebellion. And check this out. Here's where it got crazy. Putinin' say, shit,
Speaker 1: where's nigga at? When he finally popped out, he wasn't
Speaker 1: even at the Kremlin. So the niggas was like, oh shit,
Speaker 1: you scared. Wait this nigga scared. And he even got
Speaker 1: on the camera and was like, nah, fam, I condemn this,
Speaker 1: Like I don't play this shit. You go nah, y'all
Speaker 1: gonna have to chill. And then I'm I'm now, we
Speaker 1: don't know what happens. It's like the screen goes black
Speaker 1: and then it pops back up and progusion nigga, the
Speaker 1: street nigga that owns an army, A nigga that got
Speaker 1: almost all the way, God damned the Moscow who shot
Speaker 1: down killed, killed a thousand, killed a thousand troops, shot
Speaker 1: down two military grade planes which are not cheap. Russia
Speaker 1: ain't got damn got money to spare on their tools,
Speaker 1: shot them down. All of a sudden, It's like it's
Speaker 1: all good. Changed my mind. I'll just go to Belarus.
Speaker 3: Nigga.
Speaker 1: What you had him on the nigga like you had
Speaker 1: him in the corner. You are what are you doing
Speaker 1: bro this?
Speaker 4: I'll just go to Belarus.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: I have no idea what happened there unless Russia decides
Speaker 1: to tell us. But I've been saying this since hood.
Speaker 1: Politics was just the section of the Red Couch podcast.
Speaker 1: The question always and somebody in power like that is
Speaker 1: are you a killer?
Speaker 2: You have to ask yourself is Putin a killer? And
Speaker 2: I think the resounding answer is see signor absolutely nigga?
Speaker 2: Don't Ever, I can't believe it was even a question
Speaker 2: Putin's a killer? Would he kill his own homeboy, a
Speaker 2: nigga he known since since they was both foot soldiers?
Speaker 2: Will you take somebody like Progulsion.
Speaker 3: Who like I.
Speaker 1: Look, I'm from the hood, homie. I don't already done time.
Speaker 1: You're fucking up my money. Now you got me out
Speaker 1: here losing wars. But I'm not mad at you, though,
Speaker 1: I'm mad at the Ministry of the which of course
Speaker 1: is CAP.
Speaker 2: We all know that's CAP.
Speaker 1: But he said it's a march towards freedom. All of
Speaker 1: a sudden, this man strikes a deal of who've been listen,
Speaker 1: that's his ace. Boon con strikes a deal to go
Speaker 1: to Belarus, essentially an exile, and then Putent tell the
Speaker 1: rest of the army like or the rest of his
Speaker 1: Wagner Group army, which again you have to understand, they
Speaker 1: running wars all over the world right now, This ain't
Speaker 1: the only place they at, and Nigga got sets everywhere,
Speaker 1: committing horrendous crimes against humanity everywhere. He said, Hey, yo,
Speaker 1: y'all could join up with us, or you could just
Speaker 1: go back home, or you can go down to Belarus.
Speaker 1: Choice is yours, bro, I'll honor it. Why don't you
Speaker 1: gone like gone to Belarus? That's exile? Y'all understand that, right.
Speaker 1: Pagosian's a jilgenaire that owns an army, and rather than
Speaker 1: pulling the trigger, he chose exile. What does that tell
Speaker 1: you about Vlad's power?
Speaker 2: Is there really a question?
Speaker 1: Because I'm gonna speculate the same way you're gonna speculate again.
Speaker 1: Oligarchs are getting thrown out of windows, I thought, and
Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you, I thought the demise and
Speaker 1: me and me and Robert thought. I thought that the
Speaker 1: final demise of Vladimir Putin will be if he continues
Speaker 1: to fuck up the money. That's what I thought, and
Speaker 1: I still low key kind of believe that. But I
Speaker 1: thought the who controlled the money was the oligarchs. I
Speaker 1: thought they would eventually be like, all right, fuck this now.
Speaker 1: My gross and wild and unfounded speculation was it was
Speaker 1: them oligarchs. That was talking to Progrosion like nigga, I
Speaker 1: think there's a part of it, and they again probably
Speaker 1: cut a check. I also think it's complicated. I think
Speaker 1: this nigga Progosion don't like losing, and you got me
Speaker 1: out here looking like a herd. I also know he
Speaker 1: from the street. He no better than to talk shit
Speaker 1: about Vladimir Putin. He been here the whole time. A
Speaker 1: nigga know where the bodies are. Are you really gonna
Speaker 1: be able to take him out? I'm pretty sure he's
Speaker 1: seen a bunch of people try to take Blad out.
Speaker 1: He's been around forever. But also he like, yeah, from
Speaker 1: the streets, because I run, I run an army. I'm
Speaker 1: done with this shit. You're not gonna keep playing games
Speaker 1: with me. He might have been just done. So let
Speaker 1: me guess what happened off off camera. But before I do,
Speaker 1: you gotta hear Belarus's side. Now, you let Mettvashenko tell it.
Speaker 1: That's the leader of Belarus over there. You let Mashenko
Speaker 1: tell it. He's seen all this going down. He tapped
Speaker 1: in with Progulsion and was like, look, homie, listen dog.
Speaker 1: I know you upset, but listen you don't want the smoke,
Speaker 1: and according to him, Progusion was like, no, I'm with
Speaker 1: all that. I won't No, I wont the smoke. Man, Nah,
Speaker 1: I'm done with this shit. You're gonna stop making me
Speaker 1: look like no, nigga, I want it, And Mettfashenko is like, listen, Doug,
Speaker 1: you don't want it. Look, let me talk to let
Speaker 1: me talk to let me talk to Blad, let me
Speaker 1: talk to big Homy black man, let me see what's
Speaker 1: uping Like, Man, I ain't talking, I'm done talking. Let
Speaker 1: me talk to him, homie. And according to him, he
Speaker 1: pulled up on Vlad like, listen, Dog, this a bad look,
Speaker 1: big homie, Like I'm trying to tell you. Man, maybe
Speaker 1: like like, let's just let's just calm this thing down.
Speaker 2: Look, I'll take him.
Speaker 1: You feel me like I'll I'll let him, let him
Speaker 1: come here, I'll make sure everything all right. But like, Dog,
Speaker 1: you don't. You don't need this, And according to him,
Speaker 1: he talked both of them down, which is a great
Speaker 1: story to tell because now you look like a boss.
Speaker 2: You look like you tapped in. But the thing is
Speaker 2: with this.
Speaker 1: Whole story where all of it is like I know
Speaker 1: none of y'all want to look like punks.
Speaker 2: But we know you. I mean.
Speaker 1: That y'all can't convince Vladimir or nothing. Maybe you can,
Speaker 1: but for years you've been kind of like just riding
Speaker 1: old Lad's coattails for a wild big dog. But like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's a great story. That's a great
Speaker 1: story to be like, look, man, let me let me,
Speaker 1: let me, let me, let me let me broke he
Speaker 1: this piece. I don't know, though I wasn't there. I
Speaker 1: think it might be a combo of both. But here's
Speaker 1: part of what I think. I think you could guess. Already,
Speaker 1: Lad looked his homeboy in the face and he was like,
Speaker 1: you're gonna stop this, And he was probably like, listen,
Speaker 1: matthishenko Come get your boy, Hey, come get your man,
Speaker 1: cause I'm done with this shit. You got two choices,
Speaker 1: big homie. I think you should make the right one.
Speaker 1: I think progulsion made the choice that any logical person
Speaker 1: would make. I think it's best you gonna take your
Speaker 1: ball and go back home, go somewhere, find and start
Speaker 1: you a new life, home boy in Belarus and start
Speaker 1: playing you some fruits and veggies.
Speaker 2: Go be a farmer out there. Nigga, don't come back
Speaker 2: to the hood.
Speaker 1: You lucky, my little homie being cool about it, because
Speaker 1: I might listen, because if I even if somebody even
Speaker 1: formed their lips to bring you up one more time,
Speaker 1: if I even smell your cologne anywhere around here, I
Speaker 1: think that's what he told him. But I also know
Speaker 1: Belarus scared of Putin too, So Putin called him, send
Speaker 1: him to Belarus, let him live there for a year.
Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, man, y'all hear about
Speaker 1: the guy from the Wagner Group. The Wagner Group already
Speaker 1: got food poisoned. I don't know what happened, man, I
Speaker 1: heard he fell out of a window. Nigga, exile. Ain't
Speaker 1: exile when you were gangster like Putin. And then Putin
Speaker 1: got to get back on the camera and be like, listen,
Speaker 1: everything's fine, everything's under control.
Speaker 2: This is actually good for us, Oh you need it.
Speaker 1: Almost happened, the chaos among your army, that's good for us.
Speaker 2: The fact that even.
Speaker 1: Your own team is like, we can't win this shit
Speaker 1: like you, we're not even prepared. And he's like, well, listen,
Speaker 1: the Ukrainian forces thought that bickering among us would destroy us,
Speaker 1: but it only made us stronger out here singing Kelly Clarkson,
Speaker 1: what don't kill us makes us stronger?
Speaker 2: That's his love. That's what you get on camera.
Speaker 1: Tell everybody like, Nah, it's all good, bro, Listen, this
Speaker 1: makes us better and listen, I will navigate us through
Speaker 1: all this and we're gonna win. We are Russian strong,
Speaker 1: will be good. We're made of vodka and sub zero
Speaker 1: temperatures will be good. That's how you go. Try to
Speaker 1: spin it, and that's how he is spinning it. But
Speaker 1: I tell you what we actually thought. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Look, Regusa was feeling froggy, and it all
Speaker 1: of a sudden changed his mind, just like fifty cents say.
Speaker 1: It's crazy how people start, you know, how their memories go. Man,
Speaker 1: you just you kind of forget, like all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: your memory and your sight like you wasn't man, I
Speaker 1: don't remember, like I don't think.
Speaker 2: I saw that all of a sudden.
Speaker 1: Your eyes get bad, man, That's weird how your eyes
Speaker 1: get bad. Sometimes tapped in with thanks his own boy,
Speaker 1: I can't feel too from you, Yeah, lad, I feel
Speaker 1: you to be your own people, don't it.
Speaker 2: Politics y'all.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know why I ain't thought of
Speaker 1: this before, but you know you could use promo code
