Speaker 1: Yeah, let's just keep a real straight shot with no Jason.

00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 1: of The What, where they deal with hip hop questions,

13
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: legends and lists. When I saw that title, I really

14
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: was interested in wanting to know exactly what it was.

15
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: So Mouse Jones is here to chop it up with me.

16
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: His other co host is Nala, but we are going

17
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: to speak a moment with mouth Jones to see what's

18
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: happening with him. I know you're also the founder of

19
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: Trap Karaoke. I want to touch on that a little bit,

20
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: but I did want to spend some moment to talk

21
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: about how you hooked up with the Black Effect podcast

22
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: Network with Charlemagne and God and really what is the

23
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: what all about? Welcome to the show, Homie. Thank you

24
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: so much. Miss appreciate you. I appreciate you. Tell me

25
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: what the what means? Because just that alone, I was

26
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,839
Speaker 1: kind of confused that hip Hop questions legends and lists?

27
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 1: What are the lists about? What is the legends about?

28
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: I get hip Hop Questions? But tell me what makes

29
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: this podcast different than most of your pop culture you

30
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: know podcasts? Well, the what obviously the name is a

31
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: throwback to the Biggie and Method Men song offer Ready

32
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: to Die, you know, um, and the podcast itself. I

33
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: think the biggest thing before anything that that is different

34
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: than most of the podcast the hip hop podcast we

35
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: hear from is me and Nala are two of the

36
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: younger or youngest people in the game doing on it

37
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: right now, you know when it comes to you know, uh,

38
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: pundits upon culture and things that nature. Like, we're two

39
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: of the people on the younger spectrum, um talking about

40
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: these things that typically you would hear this from, you know,

41
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 1: especially these days, you hear from an old hip hop

42
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,239
Speaker 1: legend or you know something like that. I think we

43
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: enter this space, uh from a learning and journalistic standpoint,

44
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: you know, we're not experts. We're here to actually get

45
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: the answers behind these age old hip hop questions. But

46
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: on the same time, on the same token, we're gonna

47
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: we're posing new ones, right, Like a lot of the

48
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: questions will be discussing in the beginning our age old

49
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,920
Speaker 1: questions that really never had an answer, and we go

50
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: deeper to find that answer. Me an example of that,

51
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: So our first episode is who's the current queen of

52
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: hip hop? Not only do we ask that question, right,

53
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: because that's the surface level, that's easy, that's a debate,

54
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: but then we all then we talked to Kim Osorio

55
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: about you know, is even trying to place this crown

56
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: on somebody is divisive? Is that toxic? Does that breathe

57
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: and airb contempt among um? Women should be viewing each

58
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: other at peers, right, So we have that conversation and

59
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,679
Speaker 1: nobody at least me, and now we don't go into

60
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: it with a preconceived notion. We're never entering this thing

61
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: anything but one bipartisans I'm caring now. That makes me

62
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: want to hear that because if you can just answer

63
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: that quickly before we go to the next thing when

64
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: you say it, just even putting the crown on someone,

65
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: does that bring contention? Hip hop is about contention. So

66
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: what was the answer? What was the overall, like bottom

67
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: line result on that answer, because I'm just curious. So

68
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: that's the beautiful thing. All all of us have three

69
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: different answers. Like me, I'm I'm a hip hop guy.

70
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: This is this is my life, this is what got

71
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: me to this point. I love it. I love people competing.

72
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: I love it. I love the smoke, I love the energy,

73
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: I love all of it. Um, I'm also not a woman.

74
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: I'm also not a black woman, right, so I don't

75
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: deal with these nuancewers that may have a fallout from

76
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 1: everybody being in competition. Right, guys, we could be all

77
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: the time and nobody's ever gonna lose sleep, nobody's gonna

78
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: lose the opportunity with the women you know listening to

79
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: Chemo SORRYO and you know who she's dealt with, and

80
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: you know the artist that she's sat down with and

81
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: listening to the Nila upcoming woman in hip hop. You know,

82
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 1: I tend to look at that a little bit differently

83
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: now I'm like, oh wow, well maybe me. Maybe us

84
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: as hip hop fans having this blood lush all the time,

85
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: maybe it does. Uh, maybe it does have an ill

86
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: outcome on the people who we put it on. But

87
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna unpack that a little bit further. I know,

88
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: I want to get to the podcast, but you brought

89
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 1: up a topic. Now see why this is a good

90
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: podcast because now I want to talk about them. I

91
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: want to make this episode about that episode because you're not.

92
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna let you escape over that. So let's

93
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: go back. Let's go back to what you said about

94
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: you know, well women don't cause so there's sexism in

95
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 1: hip hop and then there's um who's the queen of

96
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: hip hop? With your two totally different things. And I

97
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: want to make sure I'm hearing you right, because women

98
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: that get into hip hop are just as competitive that

99
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: are not solved are not Well, you know, I'm a

100
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: woman and they kind of guys compete all the time,

101
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: so do women. Um, So I know you're not saying

102
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: that women are not made for competition. Are you talking

103
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: more about the sexism involved in the space, because that's

104
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: two different things. So so when I said so, so,

105
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: my statement was more more so, No, what was completely

106
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: about the outcome. It's all about you know, well, men,

107
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: there's so many men in hip hop. Nobody's ever being pigeonholed.

108
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: Hey only rap about this, only rap about that if

109
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: you go out this person, you're gonna lose the opportunity.

110
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: I think with men, when there's competition in hip hop,

111
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: it's looked at a lot different. Right. If there's a

112
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 1: competition hip hop, it's this very linear thing. It's just

113
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,840
Speaker 1: that it's just competition. When we're talking about, you know,

114
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: the nuances of sexism, agism, um, just black women being

115
00:05:54,920 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: able to uh embrace their sexual agency and liberation that

116
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: comes with with with consequences at times. Right, So if

117
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: if you're a woman and you go at the girl

118
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 1: at the top, all of those things we just talked about, sexism, agism, colorism,

119
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: all of these things. If you if you're at the

120
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: bottom of that, it could fall on you. We may

121
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: never hear from you again. I got you. So you're saying,

122
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 1: in order to determine who the queen is, all of

123
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: those things play a factor in to determine who's the

124
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: most valued, which ultimately results into the age of them

125
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: sax and so okay that that makes sense because when

126
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: they're the king of hip hop, that doesn't that doesn't

127
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 1: take a toll on everybody who's not the king. When

128
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: we say, oh, who's the queen of hip hop? Who's

129
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: the queen of rap? That's you know, that could weigh uh,

130
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: that could weigh unevenly on those who are not considered

131
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: the queen. So I agree to that in somewhat though,

132
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: because I mean, and there's also you know, people have

133
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: different views. So New York may say the king of

134
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: hip hop is jay Z. We're in the South. That's

135
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: not the South king, you know, that's not They don't

136
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: look at jay Z the way everybody else man in

137
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: the East Coast. So I do think, I do think

138
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: there are some there's some room for people to determine,

139
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: you know, what they see as king or queen or

140
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: and that. And that even goes to But I hear

141
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: what you guys saying, and I think that's a great

142
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: topic to have. But I'm just adding my two hip

143
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: hop sense to it. When you said, guys can kind

144
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: of wrap about whatever and they have the room. I

145
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: guess it depends on what that is. What if we

146
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: really want to unpack that and be fair because if

147
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: we look at the top one hundred songs are the

148
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: top twenty five songs, they're actually all rapping about the

149
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: same ship. Um, there's underground people that do quite well

150
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: but are not considered. So first it's all about, Okay,

151
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: who's popular? What are we considering good music? Is it

152
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: based on what they play on the radio? Is it

153
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: based on what's popul what's popular? Is it based on fans?

154
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 1: Is based on more of a cult like following, and

155
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: that even still a play. And I'm be saying from

156
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: a woman's perspective because I know a lot of especially

157
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: if a man sitting down with a woman, you're you're

158
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: definitely what I appreciate, You're allowing space for us to

159
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: have those sensitivities. But as a woman and auntie, I'm

160
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: pulling back on what they probably didn't say to challenge

161
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: them in some areas as well, because hip hop is

162
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: not designed for anybody, male or female to not understand

163
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: you have to navigate different waters, and so whether that's

164
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: female or male, I don't want women to be placed

165
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: in a space where now we're expecting to get certain passes,

166
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: because if you are expecting to get certain passes, then

167
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: you can't talk about how you boss up like a man,

168
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: you get money like a man, you have sex like

169
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: a man, you have sex like a pimp. You a pimper,

170
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: this and that you have to make a choice on

171
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: either you're gonna you're gonna roll with the niggers are

172
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna roll dick? So we can't as a woman.

173
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: We also have to be very careful. You know, there's

174
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: comments where people say, if you act like a man,

175
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: then you're not a lady. And so now what women

176
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 1: bring to hip hop is a lot of masculinity, and

177
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: that's okay. I'm a freestyle battle. I can freestyle battle

178
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: most of these women who can't battle at all. So

179
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 1: when you're walking into that space, you have to also understand, Yeah,

180
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: what comes with that is also you're in a man's space.

181
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 1: That's a majority man. So when I was at M

182
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: six to gunner in the military, it was only eleven females.

183
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 1: I couldn't go into that space and say, well, you know,

184
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: if you say this, it's gonna affect this, and it's

185
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: gonna affect that, this, this, and that. No neigga first

186
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: neiggata laid out, the first one to fall fall out.

187
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,719
Speaker 1: It's gonna be the first one to fall out. I'll

188
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: beat many men when it came to rut sacking and

189
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: who could go to distance. So although there is some

190
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: acknowledgement that we need to have for women, I'm just

191
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: saying just giving it to you from a woman's standpoint,

192
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: and more than likely an older woman than the women

193
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: you know you had a conversation with that it's not

194
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: necessarily true that it's okay for you to get this path.

195
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to be the queen because it's gonna

196
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: make everybody else think that that's what the queen looked like.

197
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 1: That's the same way with men. When people ask me

198
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: who's your favorite hip hop artist, and the conversation is

199
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 1: always about is it Biggie or a pocket? Is he

200
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: the best of all times? Pot To me, it's not

201
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: what I consider the greatest of all times. It's not

202
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: your great. You're great. Maybe the way Biggie flowed, the

203
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: way he you know, his lyrics were, the way he

204
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: put a song together. My great is Tupac as a revolutionary,

205
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: more of him being a revolutionary than he was necessarily

206
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: a lyricist, are necessarily a rapper. It was who he was,

207
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 1: and his consciousness, the fact that there's articles and papers

208
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: in classes in college based upon Tupac compared to Biggie.

209
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: So I do want to say in fairness that whoever

210
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: you see is the queen of the king is who

211
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: you see, and your king is not my king, and

212
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: your queen is not my queen. But I want to

213
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: say to the ladies that listening and to those that

214
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: follow your show, the nalysis you. If you're gonna come

215
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: into this space, you have to be prepared not only

216
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: to be as good and if not better as another

217
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: female and see, but also able to send these niggas

218
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: like you lyrics. So when we look at people like Rhapsody,

219
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 1: she's not rapping about what Mega Stagion is rapping about,

220
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: she's not rapping about what Nicki Minaj's rapping about, but

221
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 1: she's still holding her own. So there are artists out

222
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: there that do that. And if people don't gravitate towards

223
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: what they you know, towards the music, that's just their style,

224
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I had a show earlier

225
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,839
Speaker 1: on at the beginning that touched the reason why I

226
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: wanted to pause on this. I wasn't expecting this to

227
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 1: be I guess this is what the show became about.

228
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: But I had a show earlier on the beginning of

229
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: my season with Sugar t Um, who was a part

230
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: of the click, you know, in Efort, and we had

231
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: this same conversation about agism and you know, not respecting

232
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: the legends. What I would say is the female legends

233
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: are not respected now as they should be for the

234
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: dudes they've been paid, you know. But I say that

235
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: also in anything that's you know, especially male dominated, whether

236
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: it's the hood, whether it's gang banging. You know. I've

237
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: had Sylvia None on my show, that she should be

238
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: respected like a general, just like a lot of the

239
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: guys that come out the streets, you know, and and

240
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: and switch their life. Whether it's m c ad or

241
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: you know, whoever it is, she should be you know,

242
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: part of that respect, you know, based on what she's

243
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: absolutely so I think that is a female male dynamic.

244
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: I think it goes further than the hip hop. I

245
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: think it did in the street culture, and I just

246
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 1: think it just comes from anything that's pretty much male dominating. Yeah,

247
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it's all underneath the you know, the tyranny

248
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: of patriarchy, right, And it's like, you know, there's patriarchy,

249
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: and then it's what I call like a black patriarchy,

250
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: which is like just like the more incessant fallout. Right,

251
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 1: Like if if if I'm if I'm a black man

252
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: and i gotta go out in the world and I

253
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: deal with all this white patriarchy, if I'm not cognizant

254
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: of what's going on, I'm gonna take that back into

255
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: my community. I'm gonna put that into my kids, I'm

256
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: gonna put that into my relationships, I'm gonna put that

257
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 1: into my neighboring, my community at home. Right. And so

258
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: that's why I tell such the stands I do when

259
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: it just comes to any black issues, Like listen, it's

260
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 1: not what you're looking at. It's a lot bigger. It's

261
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: just like you said, it's it's not just hip hop,

262
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: it's not just sports. This is this is this ugly, ugly,

263
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 1: ugly version of patriarchy that we're you know, we're performing

264
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: in the black community that if we were able to unlearn,

265
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: then we wouldn't have these issues. We would be able

266
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,079
Speaker 1: to talk about hip hop artists just hip hop artists,

267
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 1: not male or female. Right, We wouldn't because we would

268
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: allow the city girls, the Megs, the Cardis, we could.

269
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: We would allow them to rap about all that they

270
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: wrap about, and that be what they wrap about, and

271
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: then we could accept the Rhapsodies and the the Ochekas

272
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: and the Nicki Minacus. I guess my confusion as we are,

273
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: who's saying that we're not because they don't have the

274
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: same level of popularity. Um, well, yeah, I mean I

275
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 1: think for us as fans, I don't think we I

276
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: think once you reach a certain age and and you

277
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: you have a certain understanding of what it is to

278
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: really support an artists, you don't care about that, right,

279
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: We don't care about I don't think anybody on this

280
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: understand if you cares about what anybody else says about

281
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: somebody we're a fan of, because we're gonna still, you know,

282
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: consume that music and love it and and do that.

283
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: At the younger ages, these kids are really you know, formidable,

284
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: and they're and they're really influenced by what's popular. So

285
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: there might be a kid right now who loves Rhapsody,

286
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: but that's not what being played in the club, that's

287
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: not being on a TV. Absolutely, And it's because I

288
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: mean again when you talk about white supremacy and white supremacy,

289
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: supremacy structures most things that support and hey, I grew

290
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: up on Little Camp, so I am a little kim.

291
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm not a I mean I appreciate it, you know,

292
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 1: quintality for em c light a little bit before me,

293
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: like my my air came from Little Camp. So bottom

294
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: line negative at all. But I was a part of

295
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: a street culture that that was normalized in that way.

296
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: And so when you're dealing with I guess, quote unquote

297
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: toxic a masculinity, if you will, I dated against us.

298
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: She was the counter to that. Um So that was

299
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: the conditioning that I was brought up in. But that

300
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 1: didn't mean there weren't other artists. You know that we're

301
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: just as good. But it's the system itself that pushes

302
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: a lot of those artists up more so than they

303
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: do other things. But it's not just hip hop. Is

304
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 1: everything evolved around that? I guess is that what you're saying.

305
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: But but I don't think it's a we can make

306
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: space for like us as a community. It these are

307
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: these executives that's doing this. They're making this decision because

308
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: sex sells. It hasn't it always will. And so when

309
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: Little Kim said I'm first bitched to rock the mic

310
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: and stilettos, that was a selling thing and it will

311
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: always say. Women will always be women over me, and

312
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: so women ascent titties will always sell. I mean, let's

313
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: just call it what it is. So when you're when

314
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: you're pushing that as an agenda, and this structure is

315
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: pushing that as an agenda to sexualize black women like

316
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: they have since the beginning of time. Where's the confusion?

317
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 1: I mean, either you it that? Are you not that?

318
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: My kid loves BTS. She's a huge K pop. She

319
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: loves the way that yeah, oh man, yeah, they're like major.

320
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: I mean she doesn't. She doesn't um and see in

321
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: this age because I love it, you know, I love

322
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: it because I would rather her, even though her mama

323
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: listen to WOP. I would rather her because she said, Mama,

324
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: their music is really positive and they really talk about

325
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: loving yourself and all this kind of stuff. So for me,

326
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: I love it, you hate it. I love it because

327
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 1: I would rather her as cornball as it is. I

328
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: would rather her have those things poured into her rather

329
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: than talking about Meg the Stallion's latest thing. On Thought

330
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 1: on thought life, but her mama listening to it. But

331
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: I'm keeping but what would you rather? So when you say, well,

332
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 1: we gotta make room, and then now you're saying, well,

333
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: I hate the fact that they love BTS, let me

334
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: ask you why is that? If you're saying that, you

335
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: know there needs to be space for you know, BTS

336
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: in in today's like the community. I mean, yeah, there's

337
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: that or obvious like that's the glaring one, but it's

338
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 1: just like it's the phenomenon of it all. You know,

339
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,360
Speaker 1: they're not really making good music. But you know, are

340
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: we expecting our kids to be um music analysts at

341
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: this age? No music? What the terms good music? Um?

342
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: I think that music is just it's it's uh soulless, right.

343
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: I always have a problem with soulless music, like quote

344
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: the quote unquote pop music of when I was growing up,

345
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,640
Speaker 1: of you know, probably of your generation, like the New

346
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 1: Kids and the Backstreet Boys and the Instincts, the Britain

347
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: Spisch because these are all soulless records that you kind

348
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: of could have placed anybody in to make these spots,

349
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think you kind of

350
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: brought in more too. Whoever the machine pushed in front

351
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 1: of you than the actual product. Um, So that's what

352
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: I'm so when I think of BTS, that's why all

353
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: I see is like, Okay, that's just that's two thousand

354
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: twenty one Backstreet Boys, Like there's no But I guess

355
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: so when you say not really there what a story

356
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: that you identify with no to for getting me. I'm

357
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 1: just talking about like, if you just listen to the music,

358
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: the music doesn't make you feel anything, right, it's the machine.

359
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: It's the machine that was marketed. This is just what

360
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: they're selling. BTS could sell bubble gum at this point.

361
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 1: They're so hot, you know what I'm saying, and agree

362
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: with them, But I guess she says she likes them

363
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: talking about love and loving yourself and caring about yourself.

364
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: She broke down some metaphors on him and I was

365
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 1: just listening, but something about the moon and the ocean

366
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: and how smart he was, you know. So I'm talking

367
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: about So let me ask you, your brother, when you say, well,

368
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: you're not feeling anything, what do you feel from hip hop?

369
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: I feel the I feel so much when it comes

370
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 1: to a pop right, um, and this will probably be

371
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: like the deepest answer I'll ever give us. Like you know,

372
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 1: I feel I feel a protest, right. I tell people

373
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: all the times when i's a protective hip hop like

374
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: it was, especially when it comes to white people entering

375
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 1: the space or non black people entering the space. This

376
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: music was created in protest, you know what I mean.

377
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: This music was the sound of a struggle. And I

378
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 1: feel that every time. It doesn't matter if I'm listening

379
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 1: to Eric this president, then it doesn't matter, Mad, that

380
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. If I'm listening to catch the beat, doesn't

381
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: matter if I'm listening to the four four four. Yeah,

382
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 1: And I'm with you on that. That's why I said

383
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: culture vulture when I gave you that one, as that's

384
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 1: the issue, Like let's call that's the issue culture vote

385
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: And you said, yeah, that's the obvious. But x y Z,

386
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is that sounds like that is the issue.

387
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: This ship is created for us to talk about our stories.

388
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: And when you say I don't feel anything and I

389
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 1: want to feel our story, a lot of our story

390
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: is a lot of those negative images. That's what I'm saying,

391
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: that we're saying what we want to allow room for

392
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: x y Z you know, I'm just giving you something

393
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: to think about it. Like to her, she absolutely feels

394
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: it from a positive standpoint, and her being fourteen just

395
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 1: turning fourteen. I would rather her listen to that than

396
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: what because when I was connecting to Little Kim's story,

397
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: I was living that lifestyle. And had I not went

398
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:52,199
Speaker 1: in a different direction, um, you know me being influenced

399
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: by that, are living that or you know, just didn't

400
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 1: have just by luck and grace and faith, I don't

401
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 1: know how my life would have turned out. So kind

402
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: of goes back to what your saying on you know,

403
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,880
Speaker 1: these stories we uplift, you know, their their stories that

404
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: when you look at the top ten songs, they would

405
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: some would say that those songs are pushed by the machine,

406
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,199
Speaker 1: just like to BTS. The only difference is is our

407
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: community talking about fucking and shooting and killing and selling

408
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 1: dope and drinking lean and doing dope. And so I think, yeah,

409
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,120
Speaker 1: I think it's it's a little rough for for them

410
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: to try and boxes and because we do encompass all

411
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: of that, right, and I find beauty and all of that,

412
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: And I know you're like, oh, you're just so black whatever, right,

413
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 1: because what's the opposite. Right, The opposite is me um

414
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: trying to police black people and they're creative and their story. Listen,

415
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,919
Speaker 1: if they put it out, either I'm gonna listen to

416
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 1: it or I'm not. But I'm gonna mix space for

417
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,919
Speaker 1: everybody to have the opportunity release it. Right. It's so

418
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: funny you was he was talking about, you know in

419
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: fourteen year old you know you rather her listen to

420
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: b test don't why I'd rather her understand hip hop?

421
00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: I really rather be just a revolutionary like me. That's

422
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: my preference. But when I when I'm talking about because

423
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: I want to be clear, I don't if she gets

424
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 1: up said why you don't, and I talk the baby

425
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: I'm a lyricist. I don't understand what they're saying. I mean,

426
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: I literally can't listen to something I don't know you

427
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: ever to beat no, but I got understand it. So

428
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: just to be clear, I'm revolutionary, I will first she

429
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: being what I'm into. But if I had to make

430
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: a choice, when I look at the influence of female rappers,

431
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: just going back to you know what we talked about,

432
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 1: when I look at what female artists are talking about

433
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 1: and not judging because I was listening to little Kimp.

434
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: I would rather her now, being me a parent, I

435
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: would rather her listen to that corny ship soul is

436
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: ship you're talking about, rather than all the soul that's

437
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: brought in whop. So even though I embrace it, and

438
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 1: I embraced all of that, I'm gonna need her to

439
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 1: embrace you know, love and all of that because I'm

440
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: trying to keep on the path of cornball ship. So

441
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 1: that's as a parent, you know, I'm not trying to

442
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: teach her back. There's a lot of sexually liberated um

443
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 1: you know, cornball, and that's it's kind of like what

444
00:21:57,960 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: I want from my my daughters, right, And it's so

445
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: rough being sexually liberalated cornbox. Y'all don't have the big sex.

446
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,679
Speaker 1: Are you a sexually liberated cornball? I don't think I'm

447
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 1: a hornball. No, Like I talked about sex on this

448
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: show too, because I want to be clear. So I

449
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: just don't think I'm a corn boy. I'm actually liberated,

450
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 1: but I ain't a cornable. But what I said that

451
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 1: is like you told me the sexual liberator cornball. Let's

452
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 1: let's unpack that. Let's stay right. When the women are

453
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 1: out there, they are out here and they all you know,

454
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: they're they're working in stem and they're doing that nine

455
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: to five thing, but when their home and the doors closed,

456
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: but there ain't nothing like well, I just want to

457
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 1: talk about sex on about listen, you're not okay, because

458
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: I want to make sure because it's a big thing.

459
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: Let's get a click. And I also what you think,

460
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 1: because let's make sure that people from the hood have

461
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 1: different sex than car. So I just wanted to because

462
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 1: that's one of the things I talked about a lot

463
00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 1: where they say, oh, don't get it twisted. After five

464
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: I don't need to get it twisted. I know based

465
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 1: on the fact that you type all day long, type

466
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 1: and type and the type and type and type of tide,

467
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 1: I know you don't put it down like the home.

468
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: And I just want to make that clear because there

469
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: was actually represh here. There's some sexual repression going on.

470
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 1: Correct that you're just not able to correct. Some of

471
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 1: y'all need to put the disk back in respect. It's

472
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,719
Speaker 1: disrespect of the bedroom. So I just want to make

473
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: sure before we hopped over that I wanted. I wanted to.

474
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: I've trying to tell you they go time. I'm like listen, bro,

475
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 1: you you you got a good job. There's no way

476
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 1: I might need it. I would hit it a little.

477
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: Just that's true. You bring a different level of frustration.

478
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: And you know it's known the more less money he got,

479
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: the better heat. This is what they say. You know.

480
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, I've been telling my man, but you know

481
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: where you're sleeping the night, You're not gonna have sex

482
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: better than me, Tony. I don't know where I'm gonna

483
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 1: end up sleeping night, but I know I'm sleeping somewhere. Absolutely.

484
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: I'm glad we got that cleared about me and to

485
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 1: stop on that. But I wanted to anytime we start

486
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: talking about sex, it's like, hold on, rewind, let's go

487
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: back talk about I really enjoyed, you know, I tell

488
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: you I really enjoyed the space that I'm in a

489
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 1: father at thirty two, I have a I have a

490
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: fourteen year old, and I have a nine year old.

491
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 1: Get yeah, put it in yeah. But I'm give the

492
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 1: space of like, I'm just so blessed. I've been in

493
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: the space like constant unlearning right because I've never been

494
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 1: attached to any of these thought processes that I see

495
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: my counterparts in my peers having a hard time on

496
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 1: learning right, and with me, it was like, oh, this

497
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: ain't healthy for like this, This isn't a healthy thing.

498
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: This isn't a healthy or conducive atmosphere to upbringing a

499
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 1: black woman. Let me fix it, Okay, let me fix it.

500
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 1: So like with me, there's no it all, it all

501
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: comes together because there's no rules on creativity in my household.

502
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, My fourteenyear old, go ahead,

503
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 1: I want you to listen to why, you know why,

504
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: because I would much rather you be. I would much

505
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: rather you hear it on your own than in defiance.

506
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 1: And I think you know, a lot of the female

507
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 1: hip hop artist that we love, um, the little kids,

508
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: the Foxies, give me exit, You're You're sugar, all of it.

509
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: They kind of exists in this form of protest that

510
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 1: they don't even know they're protesting. And they're just like,

511
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: oh my god, where where is the US? Yeah? Well,

512
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: my generation is very where where that they were in

513
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: form in protests. And just what I would say about

514
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 1: that is when it comes to school and my daughter,

515
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 1: it's not about listening to watch you know, with me

516
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 1: is school game? You know what I'm saying. So That's

517
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: another thing, you know, when we talk about music, like

518
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: how far did this ship go? With kids? If if

519
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: music is raising your kids, it's an issue. What I

520
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 1: was saying was, I'd rather because she listen to music

521
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: all day long, so I'd rather something positive be reinforcing

522
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 1: her all day long. I don't give it them what

523
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: it is if it's you don't. We just don't have

524
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: a lot of positive Wrapp's popular. Just being honest with you.

525
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: So I'm saying, if I had to have a choice,

526
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: I have a fourteen year old girl, I would rather

527
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: herd here, love, love or whatever they're saying, then wet

528
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: ass pussy in her ear over and over and over. Um.

529
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: That's just as a parent. Um. But I hear you're saying,

530
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:28,919
Speaker 1: like on a listen, I would rather you here and

531
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: being bright. I hear that, But we're still talking about

532
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 1: a little girl as a month, so I'm not Yeah,

533
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,959
Speaker 1: definitely a line, right, there's the line of like, hey, listen,

534
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: I don't you know, don't go to Cardi and Meg's

535
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,439
Speaker 1: music for your parenting. But you know, also, I'm not

536
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: gonna I'm not gonna hide this form of black woman expressionism,

537
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 1: right because I can't. I can't speak to that. So

538
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: where you may speak to it, I gotta as a man,

539
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: as a black man, have to understand, like, all right,

540
00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: I may not be a speak to that. So let

541
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 1: me back. But Mama, you got it. You got this

542
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: one right, right, And that's important and women have to

543
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 1: and women have to yield that power to black men

544
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 1: as well, allowing black men, you know, to have certain conversations.

545
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: And she said, because I was just talking about that

546
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: this morning, I was saying, I think, as strong as

547
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: I am, I think some conversations need to be led

548
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 1: led by men, and that's okay, and some conversations to

549
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: be led by women because I give my daughter the

550
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: game on how to navigate, you know, with men are

551
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 1: boys or this is what you're gonna encounter and this

552
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 1: is and I am going to see it differently as

553
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,640
Speaker 1: a woman as you should as a man, because those

554
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,439
Speaker 1: experiences are different. And so that that's most and I

555
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,440
Speaker 1: know this is probably gonna, you know, be a hot

556
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: tike conversation. I think most of those conversations should be

557
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 1: had by women, right, I think most of these important

558
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 1: conversations in our community should be had by women. I think, yes,

559
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 1: some should be had by men. But to be honest,

560
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: I think it's a very to more a portion. The

561
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,040
Speaker 1: only reason I say that is because men don't have

562
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,120
Speaker 1: to survive with women, if that makes sense, right, Men

563
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:07,919
Speaker 1: don't have to survive toxic femininity. Right, women have to

564
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,159
Speaker 1: live as women. But then you, guys, also have to

565
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: survive toxic masculinity. You also have to survive manhood, so

566
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 1: that you gotta exists in the space where here's the

567
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:24,120
Speaker 1: advices on womanhood, here's the advices on surviving men right

568
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 1: where we can only speak to Hey, we'll protect you. Hey,

569
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: well stas for you, but we can't really give you.

570
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 1: And maybe one day we can as a whole, but

571
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 1: we can't really give You'll never be because you're not

572
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: a woman. But I think it's important to have a

573
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: balanced conversation. I think male and female energy is important

574
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: and that can happen in one conversation like we're doing that.

575
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: We're having male female energy. We've talked about sex, We've

576
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: talked about cornballs, ex We've talked about you know, protests,

577
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: you know, we've talked about what it means for kids

578
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 1: to listen to music. You and I got a kid.

579
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: The same age that I didn't know. I just found

580
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 1: it out talking to you. They listen to the same music.

581
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 1: My perspective on that or respect on that. So that

582
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 1: was a male female conversation. It's not a matter of well,

583
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: who's gonna necessarily lead this conversation, who's in charge of it?

584
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: And that's where I feel Black men and women where

585
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: we always break down because number one, we come so

586
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 1: broken already, were a lot of broken pieces, so it's

587
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: like a puzzle trying to connect, and we never connect

588
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: that dot. And that's in a lot of people don't

589
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 1: like this, but I understand why black men date outside

590
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 1: of the race, why Black women are starting to date

591
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: outside of their race, not because they're not broken and

592
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 1: they don't have issues. But what I'm learning is because

593
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: we have so much internal brokenness that as a people,

594
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: and we're getting with you and you got all my

595
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: past trauma and I got all your past trauma and

596
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: all the generational curses that are attached to us, that

597
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: it is such a and you're competing with your manhood

598
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: on who's the man outside of the house, and then

599
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 1: now you got to compete with me, And I'm competing

600
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: with not only being black, but also a black woman,

601
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 1: and a lot of people who are against are black men.

602
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: So now I'm competing against that. And now I'm at home,

603
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: and now you're upset because black women are surpassing men

604
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 1: and education and income and all of that, and now

605
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: I have to I gotta deal with you and you

606
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: being in charge and who's in charge and not in

607
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: charge and all of this different bullshit because it's always

608
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: this race to say I am the leader and the

609
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,959
Speaker 1: king and the queen instead of just understanding that we

610
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: need each other and that energy is important, and I

611
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: got something to contribute to the conversation. You got something

612
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: to contribute to the the conversation. And it's not a you know,

613
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: a right or wrong. It's just Mama gonna tell you

614
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 1: this is how to deal with men in this instant.

615
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 1: But her daddy can also say when we see women

616
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: like this, this is what we think, because I can't

617
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 1: give that opinion. But hell, you know so, I think

618
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: it's it all comes down to communication and not this

619
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: race on who's going to leave exactly. It's I'm a

620
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 1: one million percent degree right. It's all about creating this

621
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: safe space, right, and everybody in the safe space and

622
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: always things like safe space from what oh is it?

623
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: Who are you protecting it? It's not about it's about

624
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: like a literal incubation, right, Like a baby is in

625
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 1: the womb for nine months? What are they doing there

626
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: being it's a protective thing. They're growing into this healthy thing, right,

627
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 1: what are we doing when we're trying to come together.

628
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: We're trying to create this healthy thing. And it has

629
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: to be a safe space where you're you're you're you're

630
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: validated as a woman, I'm validated as a man, and

631
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: then we validate each other. Right. And it's like and

632
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 1: and somebody might listen to be like what does this

633
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: guy do with the pen pop podcast? It's all the

634
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: same thing because if we're over there as men validating

635
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: our female counterparts, then we don't have this pushback that

636
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: we're always complaining about. And and like I said, yes,

637
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 1: it's something that needs to exist as a circle, but

638
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: we have two men, black men specifically, we have to

639
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: take uh, we have to take accountability for this pendulum swing. Right.

640
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: So right now, it's been over here with us for

641
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: so long, it's been over there for so long, and

642
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 1: women have somehow you guys cut it, and that was swung,

643
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: and now it's over there and we're looking like, oh

644
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: my god, look at me having so much fun. They

645
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 1: saying they hose. We can't even call them hold because

646
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,719
Speaker 1: they already said they hose. Oh my goodness. They they

647
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: already calling each other bitches. What are we gonna do?

648
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: You let that thing come back to the middle and

649
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 1: you hold one side and they hold one side. Now

650
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: we have something that is equally safe for everybody. That's

651
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: all I really want, no matter what the space is,

652
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 1: whether it's hip hop sports, just as black people relationship,

653
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: just let's have this equal, healthy thing. Let's not let's

654
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: not we got so much going against us already outside.

655
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: Let's remove some of that ship when we're inside, and

656
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 1: let's hold it together. It's just like the hold the line,

657
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 1: right like when I was in the Navy. That's that's

658
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,719
Speaker 1: all our members who going down the campaign and just

659
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: be having having that that that that breacher and I like,

660
00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 1: hold the line. I don't know, but that's my slogan.

661
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: Push the line politics until something happens. But I didn't

662
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: get there from my military experience. I got there from

663
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: the street. But you're absolutely right. But I would just

664
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 1: say I dig everything you said, except the only part

665
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 1: where I always make a point to say it's not

666
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 1: for everybody, you know, it really is. And even when

667
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 1: I talk about soldiers, I don't want accomplixes. I don't

668
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 1: want to allies because y'all can switch it up. I'm

669
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: looking for frontline soldiers. I want black people to start

670
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: connecting to like minds, to start understand that everybody's not

671
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 1: gonna go to start understand because what happens is we

672
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: started using a lot of energy for people who are

673
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: just not healed. You're thirty two years old and we

674
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: just had a male female conversation that I can't have

675
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: ship just two weeks ago with seven minutes. Damn, they're

676
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: seventy something years old. So it's not always you know age,

677
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: It's about wisdom, it's about healing. It's about being able

678
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: to bounce off each other with at you getting offended

679
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: and what do you mean? What do you mean? What

680
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 1: I'm trying to say that this constant thing all the time.

681
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 1: So that comes with wisdom and the desire and desire

682
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 1: to understand what it is you mean by that, asking

683
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: more questions and listening, but still giving in puple to

684
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 1: ask the questions. So when your show says the what

685
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:11,240
Speaker 1: hip hop questions, it's starting out with asking a question.

686
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,800
Speaker 1: And I think as long as you continue, we continue

687
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: those of us who are afraid, not afraid to ask

688
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,359
Speaker 1: questions because it may be an answer that you don't like,

689
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: you know, ask the question and be open to hearing

690
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 1: that and saying, well, I see it this way. Not

691
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: saying you're right a wrong, but this is my opinion.

692
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,360
Speaker 1: I think we'll go much further. But when I say we,

693
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about everybody, because everybody just ain't ready

694
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: and it don't matter what age they are, male, female,

695
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: how whatever it ridded us come down to how much

696
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: healing and we term we is not all encompassing. It

697
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,399
Speaker 1: means we, you know, WE is actually more exclusive than

698
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 1: we'd have a you know, like to imagine it's way

699
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,480
Speaker 1: more confirmation and like I've ever could imagine like just

700
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: hearing that, like yeah, like we ain't everybody. And I

701
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,280
Speaker 1: think I think me sometimes in my stap, in my

702
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: my placing and in the media world, it's like I

703
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 1: get so frustrated because I'm like Nigga, I'm trying to

704
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 1: get us all together. You know, it's so hard talking

705
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 1: to ment. Sometimes it's like whether they're my age or

706
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 1: youngest like yo or older right, Like I have these

707
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,320
Speaker 1: conversations with my dad, and my dad want the smartest

708
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: niggas I've ever met in my life, but he can

709
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: be so stubborn something. And I had to say one day,

710
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 1: they're like probably Father's day. He was having a complation, know,

711
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,879
Speaker 1: like you know that stuff like you just can't come.

712
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 1: You just can't bottom line, like stop wasting your time, brother.

713
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 1: I mean if you look at anything, when you look

714
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,800
Speaker 1: at Biblical and you look at you know, uh, nobody

715
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 1: set around the reason why Moses Moses never got to

716
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 1: the Promise lands because he spent too much time talking

717
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 1: to folks who wanted to be slaves. Even when they

718
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 1: were freed, even when he showed him everything that God

719
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: can do, they were insisting on still being in bonded you,

720
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: no matter what miracles they saw. And it took forty

721
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: years to finally get it. Joshua, the new generation goes

722
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 1: on over We're just gonna leave you over here. You know,

723
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 1: Moses didn't even he did all of that to get

724
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: them free and still didn't even get to go to

725
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: the Promise came because he was disobedient to his calling.

726
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,839
Speaker 1: So you have to say, obedi into your calling when

727
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 1: you spend time. I'm trying to get us all we needed,

728
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,879
Speaker 1: all we needed. The military don't do that. You say

729
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 1: he was in the military. Yeah, the military don't do that.

730
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: Nobody does that in the military. Basic training is all

731
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: about breaking your ass down and sending home who we

732
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 1: need to send home. So that's right. So let's think

733
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 1: about how war works. When war when we're going to

734
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 1: accomplish something and conquer something, and if we're talking about

735
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 1: we're gonna conquer white supremacy or we want to conquer

736
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: with destroying our families, if we want to conquer this

737
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:36,839
Speaker 1: male female divide, then think about your military training. And

738
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 1: you know each branch is different because the Army likes

739
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: to tease, the air force. The air Force like to

740
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: tease the Navy. And I tell people all the time

741
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: when the Army sail, we're using every wait a minute.

742
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: I was an M sixt gun on my nigga, don't

743
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: get it twisted. I was on uh MP rix. I

744
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: was with all the police. So when I went through

745
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 1: basic training, they let some people slide. But when I

746
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 1: went to security Police Academy. It was designed to make

747
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 1: sure that half of y'all went home because they didn't

748
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 1: want everybody to go through. So I look at it

749
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: like that, when you say hold the line and I

750
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 1: say push the line, everybody ain't on this line. So

751
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: these people will pour from you. They will, they will

752
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,839
Speaker 1: drain your asks. Take it from me. Everybody not gonna go.

753
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:15,919
Speaker 1: Some people just not gonna go. Let them stay where

754
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 1: they are and in time they'll get it. You're missing

755
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: an opportunity to talk to ten or twenty other people

756
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 1: that's gonna ride with you. It's not about people having

757
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:24,920
