1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,640
Speaker 1: So here's the thing about fifty. Okay, we're a couple

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: of weeks outside of the super Bowl. I'm pretty sure

3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 1: by the time this episode, the memes have kind of

4
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: slowed down about fifty hanging upside down at the super Bowl,

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: and we've we're in a consensus that this was between

6
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: this and Prince were the two greatest super Bowl performances

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: of oh time. Uh, anyway to think about this? Okay,

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: So get Richard diet Trying debuted at number one in

9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: the Billboard. To understand, it sold eight seventy two thousand

10
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: copies in the first week, and in its second week

11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: it's sold an additional eighty two thousand copies. So it's

12
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 1: like it was the best selling album of two thousand

13
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: three and sold twelve million copies worldwide. So did his

14
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: legendary status is solidified. He's also one of the funny

15
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 1: ist humans in rap music. He's there's no problem being

16
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: a troll. He loves memes, he's hilarious. And I'm saying

17
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 1: that I'm recording this to day after the super Bowl,

18
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: and I'm positive as these him hanging upside that it's

19
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: the combo of him hanging upside down and being a

20
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 1: surprise guest and looking like he put on a few

21
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: paths like it just was like, you don't look we

22
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 1: see you all the time. Why you look so plump,

23
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: Like you don't look that plump when you was right

24
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: side up. And so anyway, his his legendary status is solidified.

25
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: It was already that he and if y'all following me

26
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: on Twitter, I absolutely predicted that he was gonna be

27
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: the surprise guest. I also thought Warring You was coming,

28
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: but you know, it is what it is. The point

29
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: is uh oh. Also, I just remember Warring You had

30
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: already performed earlier for he performed on m Okay weekend. Anyway,

31
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: besides the point, H fifty probably is totally okay with

32
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: the upside down memes because he's and I don't know,

33
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: because again you're hearing this in the future. I might

34
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:11,799
Speaker 1: be wrong. I may have to eat my words, but

35
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he's funny, like fifty laughs at himself.

36
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,119
Speaker 1: And you gotta understand, black culture we nothing we make

37
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: fun of. If no one is safe. I think I've

38
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: said this multiple times. No one is safe. Anyone can

39
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: get it, like anyone can crack jogs hell y'all remember

40
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: those means of snoop going around with him when his

41
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 1: hair wrapped, his dreads wrapped up, talking about he looked

42
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: like somebody auntie, like dope, no one's safe, Like we

43
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 1: just we laugh. We know it's safe. Anyway. I bring

44
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: up fifty because I want to talk about that. Actually,

45
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: that debut album that Give Rich or Die Trying. It

46
00:02:54,040 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: was a a ton of interludes on that record, back

47
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: when interludes were a thing, and they were skits where

48
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: he was making fun of jah Rule, like when I

49
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: tell you he gotta send it like his first album,

50
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: he's it's like he coming at Jaw like he would be.

51
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: He would be playing a song and you'd hear him

52
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: go where would I be with all? Yo? Like he

53
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: was like, that's me, I'm singing with myself. So it

54
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: was like job Rule featuring jaw Rule. It was because

55
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: jaw was featuring singing choruses on everybody's records at that time. Now,

56
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: y'all might be like, jah Rule is that the dude

57
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: from five Fest? So he didn't meet himself over five Fest.

58
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: But trust me, there was a time the Ja and

59
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: Murder ec were the hottest things out and then g

60
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: Unit at fifty cent came for it. Just all these

61
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: skids were just coming at Job, and it was like

62
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: at that point we couldn't take Job serious the way

63
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: that Fifthy was getting at him. Just be like, who

64
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: would I be with all? Yo? Are you always singing

65
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: these courses? And you shouted to say and it was

66
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: God to do it, God to do with it just

67
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: came at Job. But the part that really blew my

68
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: mind was fifty did the same thing. He sang raspy

69
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: on the courses and was featured on everything. Use the

70
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 1: window shop, man that you came by, nigger, use the

71
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: window shop. How about I got the magic stick I want?

72
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: I can hear time I hit the baddest chick you.

73
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:53,359
Speaker 1: He did the same thing. It was almost like fifty

74
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: came at Job because he was planning on replacing Job.

75
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 1: Now fast forward to the Super Bowl in guess who

76
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: was hanging upside down? And guess who is a meme

77
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: about a failed doomed to fail festival? Mm hmmm, hood politics.

78
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: Let's go, what's up y'all? Uh again? This is a

79
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: day after the Super Bowl. I'm recording this so I'm

80
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: still on the Los Angeles High like I feel like

81
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: I could walk on water. I feel like every crip

82
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: in the in the country is like after seeing Snoop

83
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: stand up there throwing up oh in the Thamsburg. I'm

84
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: I know that y'all have probably gone through all this

85
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: already by the time that you hear this, But U man,

86
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: when they the tams Burger signed up there, you know,

87
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: the whole room where we are screamed. I know that

88
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: don't mean nothing to y'all, Like, but if you're not

89
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: from here, don't mean nothing to you. But that moment, Dog,

90
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 1: that TAM's Burger's moment, it's a it's a burger joining

91
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: confidence anyway, It's like it's just greasy burger. You know. Uh,

92
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: there's a few spots like that Troy's Golden Ox. You

93
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: know if if you're familiar with my music that's from

94
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: milet that the Golden Ox, you know. Anyway, I'm still

95
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: on a high about that. But this is all besides

96
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: the point I can't stress to you. I don't know

97
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: how to like take y'all back to like the time

98
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: when Nelly had Niga is putting band aids on their

99
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: cheeks for cuts. They didn't have foods are walking around

100
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: here pretending like they had St. Louis accents going and

101
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 1: what's up on her? Very dirty? Like. I know that

102
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: this look is gonna come back one day, because that's

103
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: how that's how things are. I'm telling y'all, I I

104
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: don't think that was a good season in fashion that

105
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: you look. It might be nostalgic, but I thought we

106
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: look ridiculous like during this time. So this is post

107
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: Tupac preg unit, you know, this era, post Biggie. This

108
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: era meant that there was somewhat of a vacuum, you know,

109
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: and deaf Jam kind of feeled this. So DMX came

110
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: in and filled this this hole and he was basically

111
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: the top of the world at the time. And then

112
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: this other New York brother that what tie his bandanna

113
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: like Tupac. You know, he was nice and ripped up, look,

114
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: real real thug, you know, who was obviously inspired by

115
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: Pope like everybody else was, but he was a New Yorker.

116
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: He hooked I was doing that earth Gotti and they

117
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: started this whole thing called Murder Inc. And he had

118
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: that natural rask Some people just have that natural raspy voice,

119
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: and it just kind of looked like he was like

120
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: a prettier d MX. That's kind of the way he

121
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: seemed at first, right, a DMX that will that is

122
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: willing to do pop music. Because then Rough Riders, you know,

123
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: they had some hits like John Are you know DMX

124
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: asked why he's why we treasure him the way that

125
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: we do. He had some hits, but he was rough.

126
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: He was also a member of probably one of the

127
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: greatest like tours ever. It was d m X jay

128
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: z In Wu Tang, who's one of the greatest. It

129
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: was the first, like one of the first like hip

130
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: hop international tool. Anyway, the point is d m X

131
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: meant something in us and then job come in is

132
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: ballhead kind of caramely New Yorker. That was like visually

133
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 1: harkening back to pack and they the machine just got

134
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: behind him and he had hits after hits after hits.

135
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: This girl Ashanti, you know, like this is I mean,

136
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: this is all heads stuff Like this is like when

137
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: I say early two thousands, that's this is exactly what

138
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: we're talking about this moment thousand, two thousand, one, two

139
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: thousand two, like Air Force ones times and yeah, again,

140
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,559
Speaker 1: I can't stress how absurd we looked in our styles,

141
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: but Job was everywhere key and since Fifty didn't feel him,

142
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 1: Eminem didn't feel him, and there was there's some Eminem.

143
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: This is like there's parts of them and Fifty and

144
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: all their careers. They mix tape worlds that like are

145
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: hilarious because they just be going at like m took

146
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: out everybody's name ben Zino and I know you don't

147
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 1: know who that is because you're not into what I'm into,

148
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: and partically because him kind of ended him. There's this

149
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: song if you go back and let listen, I'm y'all

150
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: google Google the song Bully by Eminem. He's talking about

151
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: IRV Gotti and Murder Inc And Job rule because they

152
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: had a thing, right. The point is Job was ginormous,

153
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: But there was something about Fifty that everybody knew, oh man,

154
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: that he had that like that Jamaica Queen's but with

155
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: the Harlem kind of like you know, Mace was the

156
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: first dude to rap like he was sleeping, you know,

157
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: even just make system and said, so Fifty kind of

158
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: harkened back to that sleepy kind of like him. But

159
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: he's you know, he's Jamaica Queen's drug dealer. You know

160
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, and he's a giant, like he was

161
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: super yoked. He was also running around here with his

162
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 1: shirt off, so down to dude pop music. But when

163
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: you connect with Dre, because you know, you gotta remember,

164
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: like this rival between the East Coast and the West

165
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: Coast about landing superstars, it wasn't as like it wasn't

166
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 1: a I mean, there was moments where it was like

167
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: serious beef, but when you was making money, you know

168
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, us like, it's more like a rivalry,

169
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So like, and for Fifty

170
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 1: to come to Dre, you got this East Coast and Niget,

171
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, on this West Coast going aftermath,

172
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: going shady aftermath is just again just a testament to

173
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: to Dre. But too in the club, the it was

174
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 1: like Fifty already had with the Green Lantern mixtapes. This

175
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 1: is DJ Green Lantern. I'm gonna really getting the weeds here.

176
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: But I'm trying to make a point with y'all, is

177
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: that the buzz around Fifty was it was already super

178
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: high before Dre and them even messed with him, Like

179
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: he was already like he already had New York streets

180
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,719
Speaker 1: on lock like he was. We were already buzzing about him.

181
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It was just this hungry

182
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 1: shooter um and you just knew, like, oh, this fool

183
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: Heath gonna be a star. Then you put that Dre

184
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 1: sauce on him, that that co sign from Dr Dre

185
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: out of here. The run Fifty made or the the

186
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: G Unit runs starting would get Richard dry die trying

187
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: and you know Valentine's Day massacre and just all like

188
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: even down to like him making a bet. This might

189
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: be legendary for some of y'all. He made a bet

190
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: with Kanye that when he dropped his album I think

191
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: January was dropping graduation, that they were bet to like

192
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: who would do better in the first week and Kanye one,

193
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 1: which in some way it was like a torch passing

194
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: and the other ways was just like Fifty was like,

195
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 1: I don't care we sold records, Like you know what

196
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like it don't matter, it's our third rd

197
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 1: as what I was trying to do, because again, fifty

198
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: just smart. You know, fifty owned Vitamin Water. I don't

199
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 1: know if you noticed, but like either way, When fifty

200
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: came in, it was like, if I'm gonna take top seed,

201
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: if my money, if I'm gonna be the biggest bully

202
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 1: on the block, that somebody gotta take out. I'm not

203
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: taking out d m X. He's already legendary, and fifty like,

204
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: I don't really do that. Everybody else on my team.

205
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 1: M's on my team. You know. The Dre and Eminem

206
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: went fifty fifty on fifty. That's a line in one

207
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 1: of them sawing I'm telling you to google. They went

208
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 1: on fifty, so shady aftermath into g UNIT records like

209
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: this was, and then you know g Unit, you know,

210
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: and then game came in and the game you get

211
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: to Kendrick and the top dog entertainment gets us to now.

212
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 1: But and knowing your lineage, like the choice was like, Okay,

213
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 1: who do I take out? If I'm gonna if I'm

214
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: gonna be on the top, I gotta take out somebody

215
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: who's on top of y'all. Rule fifty was like he corny,

216
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,079
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take him out. He corny, And at least

217
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: that's the way he presented. And I mean, I mean,

218
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 1: in my opinion out here on the West, I'm like, yeah,

219
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: Joab was carny to me, like, I mean, I can't

220
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 1: take away from his hits, but it wasn't. I wasn't

221
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 1: into that, you know what I'm saying, especially because he

222
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 1: just like looked like he was just trying to be

223
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 1: popped to me, you know what I'm saying. So I

224
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: was saying, I'm good. Anyway, Fifty took him out and

225
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: then it wasn't until four albums later that I realized,

226
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: oh wait, Fifty, he's doing what John did. He's just

227
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 1: doing it better. But it's the same. It's the he

228
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: just he took the whole format murdering g unit like

229
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: you just you get the squad together, you got your boss.

230
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: Order inks boss was that was IRV Gotti over here.

231
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: They had dre you know what I'm saying, and you

232
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: just the problem with murder Inc. Was all they had

233
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 1: are they they had else was a shanty like there

234
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: wasn't enough other shooters g un it. I mean Lloyd Banks,

235
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: Lloyd Banks did numbers, you know what I'm saying, Tony Yo,

236
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: I mean he got he went to prison. But that

237
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: was dope. Young Buck was dope. And then to cap

238
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 1: it off a game even though they had their their

239
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: issues like g Unit, like he took a format and

240
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: made it work to the points aware none of us noticed.

241
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: Now let me add this, it's not to say that

242
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: like you know, Mega Cruz was didn't some abready exist.

243
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: You had you know, Native Tongue already, you know Harlem

244
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 1: World with with Mason m you had you know, Junior Mafia,

245
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: Like this is it's cruise and you just you put

246
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: people out the same lunatics like it's a it's a

247
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: way to that's how you do it, you know what

248
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So I'm not saying that like it's an

249
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: easy one to one because I mean it's it's a

250
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: normal thing in the hip hop to like you know,

251
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: one person get on and then you try to get

252
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: everybody else on. But the similarities were just with this

253
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: particular moment was pretty glaring. He just did what he

254
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: just picked up where John left off, but did it better.

255
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: It just didn't feel corty when fifty did it. It's

256
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: the it was the weirdest thing, like calling me on front,

257
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: I'll teach you how to stunt, like it just dun, dunt.

258
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: It just didn't feel corny when fifty did it. But

259
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: it's the same play. What this got to do with politics, y'all?

260
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: Following the Governor de Santis, Man, listen, I'm gonna get

261
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: into the weeds here with a little bit of more

262
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: evidence of of of what I think. But I think here,

263
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: here's here's the thing. Somebody like Trump just is again

264
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 1: larger than life in their party. He got that party

265
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: in a death grip. They nobody want to jump out

266
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: of line. And if they do that, I mean, it's

267
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: a risk some people do they I mean what they

268
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: centered Liz Shaney, like, you know, either way, a few

269
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: people are broke. Old Pensy finally stood up and was like, listen,

270
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: Mr Trump was wrong. And even with that, like, I

271
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: don't think anybody got any doubt in their mind that

272
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: Trump is most likely gonna be the Republican NET nominee

273
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: despite all reasons why he shouldn't be. He gonna be

274
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 1: because he on top right now. He just up. But

275
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: what would make you think that all of the sudden

276
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: ambition has left anybody else inside that party? You think

277
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: they like that, You think these people have never You

278
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: don't think Mike Pence has ever had presidential inklings. You

279
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: don't think Governor abbott Out in Texas ain't thought about it.

280
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: You don't think the Santos, you don't think these fools

281
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: ain't thought about a run for office. They just know that,

282
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,199
Speaker 1: like God damn it, it's the wrong place at the

283
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: wrong time, because this fool Trump got the party by

284
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 1: the neck and kin and he's and it's crazy because

285
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: he's able to swing it from the outside and just

286
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: he just he got it. But that doesn't mean that

287
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: ambition disappears. So I say that rambling intro to say this,

288
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 1: how do you possibly have a chance to even execute

289
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 1: your ambition to dethrone him? You gotta do him the

290
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: way fifty did John. You gotta become him a second break,

291
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 1: all right? So what would be the game and what

292
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: would lead me to think this? Now? Again it's a hell, Mary,

293
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: I don't know how because I think in the head

294
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 1: to head at this point between the Santos and Trump,

295
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: he's to me it's like the closest chance of ever

296
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: like actually having a shot. It's still like, uh, Trump,

297
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: don't smoke you, you know what I'm saying. But you

298
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: have everybody else that may have ambitions and you ain't.

299
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 1: Nobody else got no shot as far as I'm concerned

300
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: that being said, Like, I'm balancing this prediction with the

301
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: fact that, like, no, we didn't think I wouldn't have

302
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: predicted that, like fifty with dethrone Job, you know what

303
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like I wouldn't have predicted that, Like Job's

304
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: kind of a joke, like Lightweight, like low Ki is

305
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,719
Speaker 1: a joke. You know, I knew I wasn't really into it.

306
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: Be granted, a lot of that joking this is because

307
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 1: of like Firefest, But that being said, like I don't

308
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 1: see him getting the credit and the relevance that fifty

309
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: has seemed to continue to have, and I wouldn't have

310
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: never predicted that. But back to Florida. So if we're

311
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 1: gonna go with this motif like how fifty did jah,

312
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: we need to look at like what Job did well?

313
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 1: Was Okay? He was a lovable thug, you know what

314
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: I'm saying, with a with a raspy voice that could

315
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 1: kind of keep you know, No, he had enough streets,

316
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 1: but he had enough pretty boy in this. He was fit,

317
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: you know, he's easy on the eyes, um, and he

318
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 1: was everywhere, he was on everything, and he made this

319
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: made us feel like you were buying into something bigger

320
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,400
Speaker 1: than what he is. So you look at that, you say,

321
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 1: what is he doing? Well, I'm gonna do that. I'm

322
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 1: just gonna do it better. So and follow me here,

323
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:11,959
Speaker 1: what what did? What has Trump done? Well? Uh? You

324
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 1: know he I mean, he's convinced the world to believe

325
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: him no matter what he says. You know, he's he's

326
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: great at myth making, right, controlling narratives. He knows how

327
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: to weaponize all things for his favor. He plays the

328
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: grievances in a way that it's just he's good at it.

329
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 1: He can play the grievances, you know, to the point

330
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: to where the a point by point facts about something.

331
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: It don't no one gives it. It's you. You're you're

332
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 1: scratching the itch the itch I need. And even if

333
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: that itch is absurd, and even if the itches, even

334
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 1: if the grievance is like as anyone with logic like

335
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 1: kind of understands that, like, yo, this is a silly grievance.

336
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. Opinion on the grievance doesn't matter. Use

337
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 1: it for your good, use it for your power. And

338
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: that's something that Trump does well. He can control a narrative.

339
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 1: He plays the grievances he presents. He presents in power.

340
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 1: He talks in absolutes. You know, this is the greatest

341
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: in the history of the country. Like he talks in absolutes,

342
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 1: um and when it comes to that, But then he

343
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: also uses things like many people are saying, A lot

344
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 1: of people are saying, and it's like, well, it's this again,

345
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 1: just this master of the language, because many and a

346
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: lot it's like defined that what do you mean what

347
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,479
Speaker 1: a lot of people are saying? Well, I mean I

348
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 1: heard I guess they were saying that you know this

349
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: and this. So it's just like that, I can't pin you.

350
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: I can't pin you on where you get in this

351
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 1: evidence Like he hadn't already moved on to something else,

352
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: so you know what I'm saying, like, I can't you

353
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,239
Speaker 1: can't use put your finger on jello. It's amazing at it,

354
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 1: And he could rally the troops. He's created a cult

355
00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: following in a way that every artist should wish they

356
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 1: would be able to create that type of loyalty. That's

357
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: this man made to where the dumbest ship This dude,

358
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: dude don't even matter. Did y'all see about the flush

359
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: and the papers down the toilet that he he was

360
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 1: complaining about. Did y'all like this? So much happened y'all

361
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: missed this. The man was complaining about the toilets in

362
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: the White House. That day's low flush toilet, it's take

363
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: ten or fifteen times and flushing, and he said, America

364
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 1: complaining about that too. Little did we know? The report

365
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 1: just came out that it was it wasn't flushing because

366
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: of the documents in it. There was, it wasn't flushing

367
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: because it was full of papers. This fool was flushing

368
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: documents down the toilet, and I honestly think it's because

369
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 1: Homie ain't no like he ain't no, he don't know

370
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: this n went and got a box of presidential documents

371
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: and took him back to mar Lago. I'm positive he

372
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: thought those were souvenirs. I don't think it was as

373
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 1: simple as he's high in evidence, like that's easy. I

374
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: think this man, this man brain bakes so much that

375
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 1: he don't he'd probably been flushing documents down the toilet

376
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 1: four years. A little difference doesn't make it. Just it

377
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 1: goes away and the toilet is not working. You just

378
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: called somebody don't talk to the plumber that comes fixed

379
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: the toilet that says, Mr Trump, your toilet was full

380
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: of you're talking to the plumber that show up is

381
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 1: talking to an assistant, a groundskeeper that says, yo, y'all

382
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: know it's in the whole last ream of paper in

383
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: your in your pipes. That's why your pipes don't work.

384
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 1: You think that little assistant gonna go tell Mr. Trump

385
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: circuit you gotta stop flushing paper now. It ain't gonna

386
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,199
Speaker 1: tell him nothing. So like I bet you this. It

387
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: was like, that's just what it's like, because this is

388
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,719
Speaker 1: so absurd, but it do matter because y'all think it's

389
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:59,360
Speaker 1: gonna elect you for your candidate. Again, this is being

390
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: pluging paper down the toilet like yeah, coo, y'all. This

391
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 1: man took a box of souvenirs from the White House, like,

392
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: you ain't niktos a government document. They're not yours. You can't.

393
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: You don't get you don't. That's not how the ship work.

394
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: But none of that matters because Trump is they got

395
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: So if you do Santos uh, I keep calling him

396
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: to Santos. His name is the Santist. Although I have

397
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: a sneaking suspicion. I can't prove this that that the

398
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 1: name is Santos. He's just trying to hide his up

399
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 1: Latino on this, kind of like your boy Ted Cruz Raphael,

400
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, that's your name, it's Ted,

401
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 1: like whatever, and then Beto oh Roy trying to trying

402
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: to add Latin to it. I think it's his toys anyway.

403
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 1: So the game is you gotta like you're gonna do

404
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,880
Speaker 1: him like fifty did Job. You gotta essentially become him,

405
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: but you've got to become a better version of him. Nigga,

406
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: good luck, and you gotta do it your way, you know.

407
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: Uh that's not to say that fifty is just a

408
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 1: version of Job, but you're following a metaphor. Obviously fifties himself,

409
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: but he's just nig I mean, he got to hang

410
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: upside down in the super Bowl. Let anyway. So first step,

411
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: and this is just from watching videos of De Santos talk,

412
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: of De Santi's talk, like I would love for y'all

413
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 1: when you've done with this, just go look at speeches.

414
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: I mean it's like down to his gesturing, his voice inflections,

415
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 1: the way that he's moving his hands, that it's it's

416
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: Trumpian like you're doing you're doing and of of visual

417
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: impression of him. And I don't know that. Man, I

418
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,479
Speaker 1: don't know if it's on purpose, but I I just

419
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,120
Speaker 1: know performance. I know in some ways some of that's like,

420
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, if y'all really looked at like if you

421
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 1: were able to get ahold of my Yeah, no, none

422
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: about this, but that rollodex of CDs you know from

423
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 1: my childhood, and you were to piece together all the

424
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: different wrap groups, punk groups, jazz and soul groups, if

425
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: you were to piece it all together, you would you

426
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,199
Speaker 1: could be able to link and log my performance together.

427
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,159
Speaker 1: You'd be like, that's this is where PROP got that from,

428
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: because that's who influenced me. So I think that there's

429
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: a there's an innocence reality of that of like, yo,

430
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 1: you just get influenced by what you're around. But then

431
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: there's the part of you that's like, I'm actually trying

432
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,880
Speaker 1: to invoke this, you know, when I get on stage,

433
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: you know, and I throw you know, my west Side

434
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: w up, you know what I'm saying, put my elbows

435
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 1: up and take a skip into a sea walk. I

436
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: know what I'm invoking. Of course, yes, um, from l A.

437
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, I'm I'm from here,

438
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:51,160
Speaker 1: so this is a part of my influence. But I'm

439
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: invoking something. I'm trying to invoke the power and legacy

440
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 1: of what y'all saw at the super Bowl. I'm invoking that,

441
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: and it's purposeful because I'm like, that's what y'all know,

442
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 1: that's what y'all ride with. I'm clearly not as famous

443
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: as them, so I'm trying to invoke stuff that reminds

444
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 1: you with him nick it duh, right, And it's also

445
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 1: like but it's also and that's my head, like I'm

446
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: from l A. Like of course it that stuff impressed

447
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: me the way that it impressed you. It changed my life,

448
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: changed my life the way it changed our life. So

449
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: there's there's some innocence to it, but there's also some

450
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:30,360
Speaker 1: tactical moves in here. I'm invoking that, right, So I'm

451
00:28:30,359 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: watching Governor de Santos invoked, you know, he stays. Secondly,

452
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: I can't speak to his voting record because he wasn't

453
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: on my radar. He's not my governor. I can't speak

454
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: to a lot of so I don't I don't know,

455
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 1: you know, I can't speak in any sort of confidence

456
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 1: about like where he's been. I mean, y'all could google that,

457
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 1: but I'm talking about what seems to me to be

458
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 1: like bio mimicry. You know what I'm saying, Like it's

459
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: fifty did ja. And the first is to go with

460
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: kind of how he's handling the laws around the pandemic.

461
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's it. It looks as though he's

462
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 1: playing against a lot of grievances. But I want to

463
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 1: get to specifically where I'm like, Okay, he found his

464
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 1: button and what's going to get him power and get

465
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 1: him the headlines? Because it continues to work, and it's

466
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: the critical race theory wars. It's working because I mean,

467
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: my Little Last podcast is doing a show on it now.

468
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: I'm sure if you listen to the show, you already

469
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: know like the national dialogue around like critical race theory.

470
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: He is one of the first governors to be like,

471
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: you're not allowed to teach a period. I'm down to

472
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: band books. You're not gonna do this right now. Um.

473
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: I got the story from CBS News about the debate

474
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: over whether critical race theory is indoctrination and being taught

475
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 1: in schools and I'm gonna quote this from the CBS

476
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 1: news article that saw it, says, head of head of

477
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: teachers union says critical race theory isn't taught in schools

478
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: and vows to defend on his history. Now, granted this

479
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: is one side, Mom, go ahead and read it for you, says.

480
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: The debate over how race is taught in schools continues

481
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: to be a hot button issues in many districts, and

482
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: the president of America's largest teachers union is speaking out

483
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: against the efforts to band critical race theory. In a speech, um,

484
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: Randy uh Wine Garden, the head of the American Federation

485
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 1: of Teachers, says critical race theory is not even taught

486
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: in elementary schools, and she vowed to fight culture warriors

487
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: who are bullying teachers. Now, I think in the episode

488
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: before this one, if I know how to schedule wing,

489
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 1: I talked about how sometimes terms can get stretched into

490
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: a place to where they don't mean anything. And I

491
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: can tell you with a hundred percent confidence, everything I

492
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: know about other anything other than white people, happened outside

493
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 1: of school or in college. I'm telling y'all, there wasn't

494
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: a single rop. No one taught me anything about anything

495
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: other than a white man's perspective. Even when we were

496
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 1: doing world history, I remember we learned about medieval Japan

497
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: in in seventh grade. I remember learned about medieval Japan

498
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: and then you know different or the different empires of China.

499
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: But they were taught still from a lens of European expansion.

500
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: You're just telling me that like they just existed. I

501
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: the only reason I knew anything about the history of

502
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: black Latinos or or anybody else in America was because

503
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: my father told me so black panther I knew because

504
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 1: of what of movies. They didn't teach me that, nobody

505
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 1: told No one taught this. I ain't know what the

506
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: word met critical race theory until college. So the outrage

507
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: I'm saying from my own perspective is like it's not happening,

508
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 1: Like God, I don't understand what you're talking about. What

509
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: you're saying is don't talk about racism period. And we're like, well,

510
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: that's not critical race theory, nigga, that's just what the

511
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 1: hell happened, And that's a different that's a different story.

512
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: The Santo's got out in front was like, no, you're

513
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: gonna stop washing and stuff down our kids. So and

514
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 1: they's like, nigga washing what down your throats? You know what?

515
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 1: That reminds me of? That reminds me of the whole Like,

516
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 1: these immigrants are coming, and they're coming, these hordes, and

517
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna take your jobs. So you got somebody out

518
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: there in callus Bell, Montana telling me that these Mexican

519
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: immigrants are gonna come take their jobs. I'm like, have

520
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 1: you ever seen a Mexican? What's the percentage of Mexicans

521
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 1: up here in Callisville? There is no immigrant coming taking

522
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 1: your job? The funk is you talking about? But it's

523
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 1: the principalities of the thing they take it. It's it's

524
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: the metaphorically speaking, they take. And this you know what

525
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So you hit that button. The big lie

526
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: we talked about, the big lie. You hit that button.

527
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 1: It is not real, but the principalities of the situation

528
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 1: is real. You keep hitting that button and you know

529
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: that's not true, but you keep hitting the button. Why, nigga?

530
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 1: Because it works. Then your man Santos went so far

531
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: as to say, which is I mean, it's the greatest.

532
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm so I'm impressed, my nigga, Like I'm impressed,

533
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: my man said. On Tuesday, a bill backed by Florida

534
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: Governor de Santists would prohibit public schools and private businesses

535
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: from inflicting discomfort on white people during lessons and trainings

536
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: about discrimination. It was approved by the State Education Committee

537
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: um and its first hurdle and becoming a law. The

538
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: bill asp one seemingly grew out of the conservative hysteria

539
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: over a critical race theory, which, as a reminder, is

540
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: an academic concept based on the idea that racism is

541
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: not about individual people's prejudices, but about institution and policies.

542
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 1: It does not, as the GOP lawmakers and its partners

543
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: in the right wing media would want us to believe,

544
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: teach us that all white people are racist, but y'all

545
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 1: are though I'm just kidding. Uh, that's that's a joke.

546
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 1: But if you want to unpack the joke, it's because racism,

547
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,720
Speaker 1: as this is saying, it's institutionalized. So even to participate

548
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:32,320
Speaker 1: in the institution, by definition of what we mean by racism,

549
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,240
Speaker 1: would mean that if you end up the institution, you're racist.

550
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: You're participating in a racist system. But don't worry about that.

551
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 1: I'm not here to split those hairs. Just like I

552
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: might say that I'm a socialist, but nigga, I live

553
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 1: in America. I'm a capitalist, like it, it is what

554
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: it is. By participating in capitalism, I don't know to

555
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 1: tell you I'm a capitalist. You know what what I'm saying,

556
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 1: even even if I know something wrong with it. I

557
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 1: know I'm not gonna price gouge. I know I'm not

558
00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 1: gonna like participating bad practices that continue to oppressed the poor.

559
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: I know that, y'a. Also, I'm in the ocean. You

560
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: gotta swim. The ocean is capitalism now. So the man's

561
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: man's was like, I'm passing a law that's not gonna

562
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 1: that's gonna make white people, you know, experience discomfort and

563
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: for the group of people that call everybody snowflakes, and

564
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: easily triggered this like y'all trying to burn books on

565
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,760
Speaker 1: some like Fahrenheit that that's probably the most like Fahrenheit

566
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: forfit you want, that's one of the books they want

567
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: us to burn. And I'm like, do y'all hear the

568
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: irony in this? Like y'all don't even think you see

569
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,919
Speaker 1: the irony in this. The point is I'm not even

570
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 1: worried about that. I'm saying, niggad, that's a play. I'm like,

571
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 1: that's a play that is so trumpy. You know what

572
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: I'm saying, to be on some like you can't make

573
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: white people feel bad. It's I feel like it's a

574
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 1: one upping, like you one up in this nigked You

575
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, to become some sort of hero

576
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 1: to this group, to create this like fan base. You

577
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 1: feel me, that's gonna help you ride into the position.

578
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: I'm saying, nig a, good luck. You're gonna need a

579
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 1: lot old dumbass laws passed if you're gonna really convince

580
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:07,360
Speaker 1: these people to back you instead of President Trump. I mean, nigga,

581
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: good luck. But I can see what you're doing. Though

582
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: I see your moves. How are you going to force

583
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: that you can't say something that's gonna make somebody white uncomfortable? Like, nigga,

584
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:22,439
Speaker 1: have you seen a Karen? Do you know what makes

585
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 1: white people uncomfortable? Everything? I don't know a very existence.

586
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 1: By thinking like, it's it possible to not make y'all

587
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 1: feel discomfort. Like obviously I'm speaking to gross generalities, but

588
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, niggas be walking their dogs fools, be minding

589
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 1: their own business, having their own conversation, eating meals. Afghani

590
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: family eating the meal, listening to music by their self

00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 1: job because that's her religion, like her religions, says she

595

598
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 1: I like it. The only way to enforce this, follow me,

599
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: is for us to disappear. And you see the game.

600
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: It's that's I mean, that's the game, all right, it's

603
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: because it's somebody on top. Matter of fact, I'll bet

604
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 1: you it's people hellless salty that he taken up so

605
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 1: much space. So one more thing to add, Uh, this

606
00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 1: is what happens. You record episodes live too early, you

607
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, then you get new information

608
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,720
Speaker 1: another whole fifty did Job metaphor was you know about

609
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 1: the possibility of somebody like a De Santos being able

610
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,280
Speaker 1: to dethrone Donald Trump, Which I don't think it's necessarily possible,

611
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: but maybe. But in that metaphor, if we're gonna continue

612
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: it going on, then um, somebody that fifty or Job

613
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 1: didn't calculate for who ended up dethroning them both. Kanye West.

614
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: Nobody saw him coming, not even his own label. Nobody

615
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: saw him coming, and he became the dude. So I

616
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 1: guess in the comparison, it would say if the Santos

617
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 1: is attempting to dethrone the Trump, which I don't necessarily

618
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 1: see coming, just like we didn't see fifty d throne

619
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 1: and jab somebody that neither wanted him accounted for. It's

620
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor, the Green She might take both day seats.

621
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 1: Well the Santos. I hope you'll get rich or die,

622
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: try and record do enough numbers, because uh, if you're

623
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: gonna try to take on the ball sneak, you better

624
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: get your weight up. But I think maybe getting your

625
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:33,919
Speaker 1: weight up means attempting to pass more racist laws hood politics. Yeah,

626
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,839
Speaker 1: that's here thing was recorded by ME Propaganda in East

629
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,040

630
