Like I 523 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: know there's a lot of macro shit in the world, 524 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 2: you know, with the like with the cops, with race 525 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 2: with when you know, all this shit, the politically we're 526 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 2: so divided and stuff. I don't know this woman. I 527 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 2: know that's a woman that needed help, and that's a 528 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 2: woman that was in desperate straits and nobody was going 529 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 2: to help her. That that lyft driver looked like he 530 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 2: was about two minutes from just dropping her house. Like 531 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 2: if she would have gotten out of that car. He 532 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 2: would have left her there, Yes, he would have. He 533 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 2: would have been like cool, on to the next ride. 534 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 2: And yeah, it was inconvenient an hour of our life 535 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 2: or whatever that we won't get back. But I feel 536 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 2: a lot better knowing she got in safe than than not. 537 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 2: And maybe it's a Southern thing, I don't know, but 538 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,959 Speaker 2: also we've had white folks look out for us in 539 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 2: situations like that. I'll never forget when we our car, 540 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 2: my car broke down in South Carolina in the neighborhood 541 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 2: and a guy driving by with his dad just happened 542 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 2: to be like a home mechanic and fixed our fix 543 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 2: my car enough for me to get home and everything. 544 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: And all he wanted was I bought him a set 545 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 2: of tools from from AutoZone. So uh and I you know, 546 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 2: I don't even know that guy from Adam. I'd imagine 547 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 2: we don't have very much in common when it comes 548 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 2: to a lot of things and our beliefs. Uh. Just 549 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 2: but it don't really matter in that case. It's just 550 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 2: like this is some old school human shit, like we 551 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 2: got to help each other. So I'm glad we were 552 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 2: the people there to help because I you know, and 553 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 2: and and you know, not to be too hard on 554 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 2: the lift driver. He got put in the horrible situations 555 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,439 Speaker 2: he did, and I'm sure it costs him money waiting 556 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 2: to take the next ride because he was trying to 557 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 2: find people that look like, you know, they they would help, 558 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 2: and not people you know, I'm sure other people out 559 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 2: by it.

And she was basically 570 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 2: a toddler in that state. So yeah, that was It 571 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 2: was a crazy, crazy thing that happened last night.

Everyone thinks they're about the you know, cause 659 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 2: the most boring thing you could say is y'all listen 660 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 2: to Renaissance. Shit was hard goes the whole way through, 661 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: and I just thought it was well done. That's the 662 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 2: worst fucking take, Like it's just like, well, nigga, that 663 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 2: everybody thinks that you gotta come back with some like 664 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 2: I ain't felt that. The exclusion of non binary people, 665 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 2: what's the problem? 666 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 6: You know? 667 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 2: Like, then people will whether they agree or disagree, You'll 668 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 2: get the clicks, you'll get the attention. You can't just 669 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 2: be you can't even just review it and be like 670 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 2: I thought this song was good because of this beat. 671 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 2: I thought this song was cool because it's like, what's 672 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: the macro message here? Is? Oh, she worked with this 673 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 2: person in this person. Now what does that say about that? 674 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 2: You know? And from what I've seen with the track 675 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 2: listing and everything, it's exactly what I thought she was. 676 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 2: She we I mean, which is one of the reasons 677 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 2: that I'm I'm not really pressed to get a lot 678 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 2: of people's opinions. We said weeks ago, I was like, 679 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 2: she gonna work with a lot of people that already 680 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 2: in the industry because she does group projects. 681 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 5: Yes she does. 682 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 2: It's not hard to determine at this point. She like, 683 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 2: and I'm not saying that in a negative like she's predictable. 684 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 2: Way I'm saying it in the like this is just 685 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,760 Speaker 2: what she does. We know it's not gonna be straight 686 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 2: country because she's Beyonce. She would not. She's the point 687 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 2: is not just getting a guitar and one producer and 688 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 2: making a song about it. Like, that's not what she's 689 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 2: gonna do. That's not going back to nineteen sixty to 690 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 2: make nothing. She gonna make it beyond saying make it, 691 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 2: you know, inspired by this other stuff. You know, I got. 692 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 2: There's people that are calling the album a revenge album. 693 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 2: At the Country Music Awards, the Country Music Channel retweeted 694 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 2: like a praise or the album or tweet the praise 695 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:07,760 Speaker 2: of the album. People were mad jumping, and they mentioned 696 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 2: Country Music Channel don't put on the Country Music Awards. 697 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 2: I know they do, not like it's not the same. 698 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 2: So like people, it was like, why are y'all fussing 699 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 2: at them? Because there's also people that think this album 700 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 2: is a vengeance album. She don't win kill Bill on 701 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 2: the Country Music Complex and shit, it's a lot. I 702 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,879 Speaker 2: forgot how much. It's a lot. 703 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, every time she does something, you have I gotta 704 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:32,760 Speaker 4: say that you have. 705 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 5: I want to say three groups of people. 706 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 4: You have, you know, the behigh where you know everything 707 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 4: she does is the best, in the greatest, and I 708 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 4: get that, you know, and sometimes that group goes a 709 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 4: little too hard, which irritates people. I get that too, 710 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 4: But you can also ignore those people if you choose to. 711 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 4: And then you have the people that hate everything she 712 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 4: ever put out since the beginning of the time, because 713 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 4: it's Beyonce that like, I just don't like her. 714 00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 5: I don't like the music. 715 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 4: Whatever it may be, be racism, be it jealousy, whatever 716 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 4: it may be. Anytime she comes out with shit, is 717 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 4: this sub section of people that go, I just don't 718 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 4: like her. 719 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 2: And then it's this. 720 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 5: Other subsection of people. 721 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 4: And this group of people, yeah, I'm gonna touch if 722 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:19,240 Speaker 4: they weird to me, the people that don't listen to music, 723 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,840 Speaker 4: don't like her music, but always consumer shit and always 724 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 4: got an opinion on her shit. And it's like, when Nigga, 725 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 4: why are you even over here? 726 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 2: Well, you know what I think is weird. I think 727 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 2: there's a group of people that like her music, and 728 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 2: they know they like her music the same way everybody 729 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 2: else like her music, but they want to be different, 730 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 2: so they try to come up with angles of why 731 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 2: the way they like it is different or I'm not 732 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 2: that pressed, like y'all are right, and it's it's they're annoying. 733 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 2: They're more annoying than the haters. To me, they are 734 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,400 Speaker 2: because like, nigga, you going to the Renaissance concert too? 735 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 2: You not special? Nigga eat what you bought the tickets 736 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 2: in a with some different money than I bought it 737 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 2: with you you doing the same shit is she makes 738 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 2: community moments out of her art, and she has a 739 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 2: hook like, she has her hooks in, she has a 740 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 2: hold on she like especially black women, black felms, and 741 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 2: they're gonna interrogate it. You know, the woke people interrogate everything, 742 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 2: so they're gonna interrogate whatever they mess with. But there's 743 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 2: also just a level of like community that goes unacknowledged 744 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 2: that she's continued to commit herself to making that work 745 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 2: for right, and I think that part goes unrecognized in 746 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 2: a lot of the conversations, and the intentionality of her 747 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 2: work is what really I vibe with. I was saying 748 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 2: her and Russell Westbrook are the only two niggas that 749 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: make working hard look cool right now in America. We 750 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 2: don't let anyone else ever work hard and let them 751 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 2: be cool. Anyone else who works hard, we basically treat 752 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 2: them like cornballs, like why are you trying so hard? 753 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 2: Cool should be effortless. You should not want things that 754 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 2: you can't attain. No one should be able to make 755 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,240 Speaker 2: you feel any type of way. And with this album, 756 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 2: she's been able to say shit like like the the 757 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 2: inspiration of being being left out of the seeing like 758 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 2: her not warm welcome at the CMAS or whatever. And 759 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 2: I know people that feel like, why would she ever 760 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 2: admit to something like that? And this is probably gonna 761 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 2: be a weird episode because I want to I'm gonna 762 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 2: get into a lot of tangents on this, but it's 763 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 2: not really about Beyonce. It's about some other shit, right, 764 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 2: This is just a gateway into it. But I feel 765 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 2: like there's two type of people when it comes to 766 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 2: two type of Black Americans when it comes to our 767 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 2: work and our creativity and the things that we do. 768 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:52,399 Speaker 2: There's black people who openly admit to being affected and 769 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 2: enraged and inspired by the plight black people have been 770 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 2: put into in America and white supremacy and their entitlement 771 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 2: and how it hurts us and affects us, and they're 772 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 2: open about it. Yes, and a lot of times we 773 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 2: make them feel bad, Like why you let white people 774 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 2: tell you what to do? Man? Why you let white 775 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 2: people do so you mad at white people? 776 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 4: That's making you, you know whatever, Like I'm acknowledging the 777 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 4: truth and the other things that impact me. 778 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,799 Speaker 2: So that's the first group. And then the second group 779 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 2: of Black Americans are those of us that lie to 780 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 2: ourselves and say that we aren't that those things have 781 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 2: no effect on us. I've been a member of the 782 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 2: second group many times. By the way, this is not 783 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 2: a judgment of the second group. It's just how I 784 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 2: see it. It's like, even during those moments where it 785 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 2: was about the absence of whiteness, that is still it 786 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 2: is still affecting me that I made a choice that 787 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:49,240 Speaker 2: is about not including them or not considering them, because 788 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 2: they're a huge factor in America and American pop culture. 789 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 2: So anything you create in America has to deal with whiteness, 790 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 2: especially if you're black. You know, I won't address the 791 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 2: third group, which is I just people that completely capitulate 792 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 2: to white supremacy and and like you know, like your 793 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 2: Candae Owens types and shit that are like, I'm just 794 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 2: gonna ride this white supremacy wave, so forget them. But 795 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 2: of those other two, because I respect both both of 796 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 2: those groups. I respect. At times I've been like, I 797 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 2: want to make something and I don't even want to 798 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 2: think about white folks. 799 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 5: I agreed. 800 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 2: At other times I man sit and I've been like, yeah, 801 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 2: fuck the white folks. But guess what that whole time, 802 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 2: if you're not constantly in some level of awareness, then 803 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 2: you're an anger about it. Then you're not. Then you're 804 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 2: lying that that black people are like the Hope and 805 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 2: Avengers where he goes, I'm always angry. That's that's what 806 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 2: it is. And if you if anyone telling you different 807 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 2: is mostly a fucking liar because you may have your 808 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 2: moments of joy, but guess what black joy is? Revolution? Resistance? 809 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:01,839 Speaker 2: Why is it revolution and resistance? Then it can't be revelatory, 810 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 2: It can't be revolution, It can't it can't be resistance 811 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 2: unless it's resisting something that we have to acknowledge exists. Right, 812 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 2: So we all pretend, I think not, we all pretend 813 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 2: there's a contingent of the zeitgeist of the of the 814 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 2: society of our conversation that really thinks their strength and 815 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 2: saying we aren't affected. And like, I was talking to 816 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 2: my friend about this, and you know, they're talking about 817 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 2: they were going through something, and I said, you know, 818 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:46,359 Speaker 2: time heals our wounds, but our scars are and the 819 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 2: pain are our origin stories. And what I mean by 820 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 2: that is the pain and the and the damage and 821 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 2: the scar. A new story starts every scar. Yes, it does. 822 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 2: You are changed by this, right, And what happens is 823 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:08,239 Speaker 2: many of us think strength is either a getting back 824 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 2: to this point before we were quote unquote damaged, right, 825 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 2: where like I'm so good, it's like I never had 826 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:16,919 Speaker 2: my arm cut off or whatever. Right, that's what many 827 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 2: of us think strength is, yes, or I'm so strong 828 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter I have my arm cut off. That's 829 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 2: another one, like I'm not even acknowledging that this has 830 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 2: been happening to me. I'm not acknowledging and that is 831 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 2: my strength. And I've come to forty five years into 832 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,400 Speaker 2: my life, I've come to the conclusion that I don't 833 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 2: I understand that I don't necessarily find that as what 834 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,760 Speaker 2: I would call the ultimate strength. I think the ultimate 835 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:47,799 Speaker 2: strength is in the admission of I have recognized the unfairness. 836 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:52,359 Speaker 2: It has emotionally affected me, and I'm living with that, 837 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 2: and that's transparent about that. And I'm still gonna go 838 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 2: out here and do the best work I can. I'm 839 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 2: gonna make the best art I can or whatever it is. 840 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:07,080 Speaker 2: But there is no there is no demerit. There is 841 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 2: no fault in being affected by something that is traumatic. 842 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 2: You know, there's no uh, there's no fault. And she 843 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 2: she's a billionaire, rich, famous woman. Her problems are gonna 844 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 2: be those of the rich, famous woman. You know. I 845 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 2: saw a reviewer. They were like, she's not singing about 846 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 2: being poorn, but what y'all wouldn't believe it? Right? You 847 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 2: know what else you wouldn't believe it. She put this 848 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 2: album out and she didn't say it was about the CEMA. 849 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 2: Y'all would go, bullshit, bitch, we saw what happened to 850 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:41,760 Speaker 2: you and the Dixie Chicks, and we know that really 851 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 2: this album is about the fact that those people did 852 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 2: not let you in. That's what you would say, and 853 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 2: you chastise her for not admitting it. I go back 854 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,359 Speaker 2: to this album a lot, and I will. I think 855 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,359 Speaker 2: at this point I'm gonna stand for this album. I'm 856 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:01,840 Speaker 2: an evangelize for this album, and and it just doesn't 857 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 2: matter if people never get on board with me. I truly, 858 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 2: one hundred percent feel like I'm right and everyone else 859 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,280 Speaker 2: in the world is wrong on this album, Mister Morale 860 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 2: and the Big Steppers, to me, is Kendrick's most poigant work. 861 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 2: It is his agree realist work. It is his hardest work, 862 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 2: It is his most crucial work. If he finished his 863 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 2: career with that album, I would be like that that 864 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,840 Speaker 2: was a masterpiece. I think it's his magnum opus. Know it, 865 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 2: don't slap in the way that you know the inspirational alright, 866 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 2: is gonna slap. No, he doesn't have any big ego 867 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 2: songs like King Koonta knows. You know, it's not It's 868 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 2: not just about I'm the fucking greatest and you guys 869 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 2: should listen to me. And here's what's wrong with the 870 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,919 Speaker 2: black community in the world. It's not that. It's it's 871 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:56,359 Speaker 2: an album that I strive to to encapsulate, which is 872 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:02,840 Speaker 2: all all things begin in through the introspection I have 873 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 2: about myself. Because if I can't fix myself, I have 874 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,319 Speaker 2: no fucking business pointing the finger at all of you. 875 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:13,319 Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, was I really pointing the 876 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 2: finger at y'all so I wouldn't be looking at me? 877 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 2: That's what the whole album is. Yes, I was looking 878 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 2: at y'all telling you you're not perfect, and really, my 879 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:27,319 Speaker 2: shit is fucked up. And not only is it fucked up, 880 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 2: but here's my raw, honest thoughts that are like not 881 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 2: about trying to look good to you, right, which you know, 882 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:40,160 Speaker 2: people rejected and when they they're so shallow and silly. 883 00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 2: They were like, look at him. This album shows that 884 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 2: he's flawed, and I'm like, that's the fucking primise. The point, 885 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 2: the premise of the album is I'm flawed. Like in 886 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:52,440 Speaker 2: every way that you find these other people flawed, I 887 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 2: am too. I've just been faking, like I've just been 888 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 2: pretending that I'm better than you. I've been you know, 889 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,439 Speaker 2: the Pharaoh and the king and all this other ship. 890 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:02,600 Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, I'm just a 891 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:06,320 Speaker 2: nigga from Comptent that makes mistakes. That that that that 892 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:09,320 Speaker 2: that cheated on his girl while he was telling everybody 893 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 2: else about all this bullshit, that that had sex with 894 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 2: white women. While I was detegrating people and racism, like 895 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 2: speaking out on all this racial ship that uh you know, 896 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 2: wearing ants and black empowerment. A person that never really 897 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 2: stood up or talked about homophobia and transphobia. And I 898 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 2: have homophobican trans members I have stood up for in 899 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 2: my own life that taught me and raised me. And 900 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 2: yet I wasn't saying that kind of stuff on my albums. 901 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 2: I was just letting y'all cook. And no, I didn't 902 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 2: have the perfect terms when I was going through this, 903 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 2: I it was confusing to me. It was misgendering, it 904 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:52,279 Speaker 2: was dead naming. I didn't know it that like that 905 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 2: because I was a kid and these are just my 906 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 2: loved ones. It wasn't I didn't go to I didn't 907 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:00,839 Speaker 2: read beell hooks or go to school or or go 908 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,279 Speaker 2: on Twitter and find the right words. I'm telling I'm 909 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,280 Speaker 2: giving you the rawest, honest version of me and letting 910 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 2: you judge it. Like like, hey, I'm turning my phone off. Yeah, 911 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 2: I'm walking away, Like that's what he did. 912 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 4: They was like yeah, they was like this nigga like 913 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,919 Speaker 4: downgraded his phone and like he was like. 914 00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 2: Nope, Yeah, here's the hardest song for many people to 915 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 2: listen to. Is him being like rawly honest about the 916 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 2: gender wars that people are having every single day of 917 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 2: our lives within the black community, being like, this is 918 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 2: how we fucking sound right now, and at the end 919 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:34,880 Speaker 2: of the day, we still love each other. So I 920 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 2: don't want to do like an hour of you, I'm 921 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 2: sorry to go. I told you I was gonna be 922 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,400 Speaker 2: a weird tangenty long win the episode. Can I know 923 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 2: you're writing stuff down, I'm gonna let you have it. 924 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 2: But my point being, the strength is in the vulnerability. 925 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 2: The strength is actually in the imperfect. The strength is 926 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 2: in the this is me and why because we can 927 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 2: all relate to that, and why can we all relate 928 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 2: to this? What I was telling my friend because you know, 929 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:04,480 Speaker 2: they had like a breakthrough and they were like, I 930 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 2: had this realization that I've been trying to cope with 931 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 2: this thing, and I've been dealing with this thing forever 932 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 2: and I and it's and you know, and I know 933 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,879 Speaker 2: how it is, especially for really smart people. We don't 934 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,720 Speaker 2: want to be stereotypes. We don't want to be basic, 935 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 2: we don't won't be like the rest of these motherfuckers. 936 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 2: We don't want to be we don't want to hear 937 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 2: that our problem is the same as every other person's 938 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,399 Speaker 2: problem that deals with the same shit. You know. It's 939 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:32,280 Speaker 2: like if a uh, you know, It's like if I'm like, oh, yeah, 940 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 2: I gained a lot of weight, and then people go, well, 941 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:36,840 Speaker 2: it could be like emotional eating, and I'm like, no, 942 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 2: I don't think so, I don't think. Not me. I'm 943 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,439 Speaker 2: too smart for that. It must be something else, right, 944 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 2: because only a smart genius like myself would have It 945 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 2: would have to be a special problem that normal, regular 946 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:51,240 Speaker 2: other people don't have, you know. And so but meanwhile, 947 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:56,960 Speaker 2: the thing I was saying to his friend was the 948 00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 2: whole world. What's happening is that when you admit things 949 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:09,240 Speaker 2: to yourself about yourself, and when you are able to say, 950 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:13,759 Speaker 2: this is the my real truth, right, the one that's uncomfortable, 951 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 2: I don't want to admit to, the one I don't like, 952 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 2: And when you can say that out loud to yourself, 953 00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 2: not this ain't about everybody else, to yourself, that's when 954 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:25,360 Speaker 2: you look up and you realize you ain't got no 955 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 2: clothes on. You've been out here like that white girl 956 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 2: from last night, ass out the whole time. Yees, you 957 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 2: have never had clothes on. Okay, you the Emperor with 958 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 2: no clothes. You have been naked the whole time. And 959 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 2: once you realize you admit that to yourself, you will 960 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 2: quickly realize everyone seeing you naked, you've been naked the 961 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:53,719 Speaker 2: whole time. Everyone else knew you were naked. How did 962 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 2: they know? Though you were hiding it so well, You 963 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:59,200 Speaker 2: were saying this, and you said, and when it was 964 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 2: brought up to you, I had a great answer for it, 965 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 2: and it was always. The reason they know is because 966 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 2: the pain and the trauma and the way that we 967 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,839 Speaker 2: all like hurt each other, we are all fluent in it, 968 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 2: whether it be from the standpoint of a perpetrator or 969 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,359 Speaker 2: a victim of it, because we are all both, and 970 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 2: so we know each other's raps. We know the lyrics 971 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:28,319 Speaker 2: to each other's songs already because we have lived them. 972 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 2: So it's many things like that. The real power isn't 973 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 2: admitting it to yourself because no one can ever use 974 00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 2: it against you. Right. I see someone like Beyonce saying 975 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:45,640 Speaker 2: why she made this album. I see someone like Kendrick 976 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 2: making Mister Morale and the Big Steppers as the most 977 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 2: powerful art possible because you can never use it against 978 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 2: that person. You can say it, don't slap. Sure, you 979 00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:58,919 Speaker 2: don't have to like it, but you can never come 980 00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:02,560 Speaker 2: at her after this album and then say she didn't 981 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:04,879 Speaker 2: say that's why she made it. You can never come 982 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 2: at her and go, you know why you really made 983 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 2: that album. It's because your feelings were hurt by the 984 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,799 Speaker 2: white people at the Country Music Awards. And if she 985 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 2: had never admitted that, it'll always be a cudgel that 986 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:18,359 Speaker 2: you get to use as a weapon. And she can 987 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:22,359 Speaker 2: never disprove for the record because no matter how many 988 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 2: times she would go, no, that's not it, you go, 989 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 2: that's it. You made a country music album because the 990 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,879 Speaker 2: white folks made you mad. No, that's not it at all. 991 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:34,240 Speaker 2: It's just I like country music. I'm from Texas. Yeah, yeah, okay, Beyonce, 992 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 2: we saw what happening with the Dixie Chicks. They hurt 993 00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:39,840 Speaker 2: your feelings, and you can just come out and admit it. 994 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:42,239 Speaker 2: We would like to you have a one up. We 995 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 2: don't have a one up on her. She fucking told 996 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:46,799 Speaker 2: you what the problem was. You don't have a one 997 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 2: up on mister Morale. Big stuff is why a lot 998 00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 2: of people, I think don't. That's why they really don't 999 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 2: like the album. There's no one up, there's no he 1000 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 2: didn't perform for us in a way that allowed us 1001 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:58,799 Speaker 2: to be like, well, you know what the problem is 1002 00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,880 Speaker 2: with his ass. Fucking told you all the problems with 1003 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:03,239 Speaker 2: his ass and was. 1004 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 5: Like it wanted to him or not ended it with 1005 00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:06,760 Speaker 5: I ain't perfect. 1006 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:10,160 Speaker 2: I'm trying. I'm sorry. See you guys next six seven years. 1007 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,399 Speaker 2: Whenever I come up with a new album, I guess 1008 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:16,759 Speaker 2: I'll see y'all again. But uh yeah, I'm good on 1009 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 2: all this. I understand that I have been hypocritical and 1010 00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 2: kind of full of shit about this. You can't every 1011 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:28,239 Speaker 2: negative review of that album that brought that up. I 1012 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:31,040 Speaker 2: was like, so you're listening to the album right, like 1013 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 2: what you want to say? Like, and I know nobody 1014 00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 2: wants to be a cliche, but it's only but so 1015 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:39,640 Speaker 2: many stories on this earth, man, we all living through 1016 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,239 Speaker 2: the same kind of shit. We're all affected by the 1017 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 2: same kind of shit. You know, the brain is basically 1018 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,400 Speaker 2: a computer, you know what I'm saying. So while we 1019 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 2: are all different, there's a lot of stuff that we 1020 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 2: experienced that is similar. There's a lot of pitfalls and 1021 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:55,440 Speaker 2: things we have to face together. And so I think 1022 00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 2: this is one of the reasons that to me, I 1023 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,719 Speaker 2: can wait to listen to the music for her is 1024 00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:07,600 Speaker 2: but specifically because I think she's going to communicate clear 1025 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 2: and I like no noise from every everyone gets your 1026 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:13,880 Speaker 2: take off, I get you got a month or so, 1027 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 2: you know. I remember the first time I played Renaissance 1028 00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 2: all the way through, I want to say, I was 1029 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,479 Speaker 2: in New York writing for game Theory. That's how long 1030 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 2: I waited, because they dropped in like the summer, and 1031 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 2: I waited until I was it was like maybe December, 1032 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:34,920 Speaker 2: and then I listened to it and I and I 1033 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,839 Speaker 2: was so thankful to not have to even no one 1034 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:42,640 Speaker 2: cared about my opinion. I didn't care about theirs. People 1035 00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 2: had already said how they felt. I thought the ship 1036 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:50,440 Speaker 2: was perfect and I and complete. And I think time 1037 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,839 Speaker 2: tells the real truth with that ship because every hot 1038 00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:57,240 Speaker 2: take motherfucker was in the tennis at them concerts. Every 1039 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 2: negative thing people said melted because when them so came on, 1040 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 2: you danced, or you share it in community moments, or 1041 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:07,320 Speaker 2: you use it on your fucking social media to highlight something. 1042 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 2: It became the music of a culture of a people, 1043 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 2: because that's what music does. Music isn't the review. Music 1044 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:22,480 Speaker 2: don't care about the review. One person's opinion doesn't get 1045 00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 2: to make or break society's opinion. What people, because the 1046 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 2: truth is, what do you press play on a month 1047 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 2: after the album's out? That's the truth. I go back 1048 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 2: and revisit Mister Morale and the Big Steppers all the 1049 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 2: time because I really like And that's how that's my truth. 1050 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 2: It's the that is a true masterpiece to me when 1051 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 2: I'm going back to it, you know, because if I 1052 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 2: just said all this flattery stuff about it and it 1053 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:53,359 Speaker 2: was like seven days out and then I never went 1054 00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:55,680 Speaker 2: back and listen, the truth is, I ain't think it 1055 00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:58,040 Speaker 2: was that good because I ain't never go back, you know, 1056 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:00,120 Speaker 2: and other people listening to this they may have or 1057 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:02,799 Speaker 2: going back to that album, it ain't. It ain't hit 1058 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,279 Speaker 2: them the way it hit me, right, And that's all right, 1059 00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:10,000 Speaker 2: But yeah, this is what the conversation made me think about, 1060 00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,560 Speaker 2: and that conversation with my friend. I don't think there's 1061 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 2: anything stronger or better or more honest. Then yeah, I 1062 00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 2: have been hurt and that aspires my work, you know, 1063 00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 2: like when and it's funny because it's like we don't 1064 00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:29,439 Speaker 2: want to give certain groups that, but it's all over 1065 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:33,640 Speaker 2: your work, Okay, So I make work I make. When 1066 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 2: I was writing for Game Theory, I had a lot 1067 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:39,400 Speaker 2: of thoughts about race and racism cause and it's not 1068 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:40,960 Speaker 2: like I was writing the show like I can't wait 1069 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:44,440 Speaker 2: to make the white people mad. I ain't mad at 1070 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:48,359 Speaker 2: what the fuck has been done, and it's okay, Like 1071 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 2: it's not I get nothing out of it of not 1072 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:55,640 Speaker 2: admitting that. And then you know, when it's men, how 1073 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:59,680 Speaker 2: much women are is about how fucking toxic get fucked 1074 00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:01,799 Speaker 2: up me can be because yeah, because they you know, 1075 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna hold it against you.

I don't think 1079 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 2: you can fix it until you're honest about it, you know. 1080 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:21,759 Speaker 2: And it's it's a struggle. I struggle with it every day, 1081 00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:23,600 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. This is not just me 1082 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 2: on a hot horse. This is just how I see 1083 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:29,880 Speaker 2: the world right now. And I think there's something powerful 1084 00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 2: in it, in this this stuff I'm doing with the gem, 1085 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 2: the cardio, working out my food. It's been rough in 1086 00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 2: the mentally. It's been kind of easy once I just 1087 00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 2: rip the band aid off and start talking about it, 1088 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:52,239 Speaker 2: but it's been rough mentally to be like, fuck, I 1089 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to admit that this is a hard 1090 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:59,279 Speaker 2: thing that I haven't been able to do and I'm 1091 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:05,319 Speaker 2: now trying and trying in the world can see not 1092 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:08,400 Speaker 2: trying behind closed doors in private.

And the whole 1099 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 2: world can see that, you know, And I'm not necessarily 1100 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:38,080 Speaker 2: doing it for the response of the whole world. Like 1101 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,000 Speaker 2: I'm not doing it because i want everyone to tell 1102 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,520 Speaker 2: me how great I am or it's inspiration or it's fun. 1103 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:46,280 Speaker 2: I'm scared. I'm scared to fail, you know. I'm scared 1104 00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 2: to have tried really hard at something and not succeed. 1105 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,120 Speaker 2: I was a kid that when he tried to do 1106 00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:57,040 Speaker 2: something boom like. It was not that I didn't work hard, 1107 00:57:57,080 --> 00:57:59,680 Speaker 2: but a lot of stuff came easier to me than 1108 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 2: other people. You know, And I know you are very 1109 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 2: hard working, that's constantly works hard and all that stuff. 1110 00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 2: But just I'm just speaking from my experience because it 1111 00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,800 Speaker 2: all comes with different pitfalls, and mine has been one 1112 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 2: of like, well, if I can't do it easily, if 1113 00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 2: it requires more work and effort than I normally would do, 1114 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,440 Speaker 2: but then I'm not gonna fucking do it. I don't 1115 00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 2: want people to see me try some shit I can't 1116 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 2: do and then it don't work. And I know that's 1117 00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 2: I know I'm saying out loud because I already know 1118 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:33,320 Speaker 2: that's a fucked up point of view, and it's not 1119 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,040 Speaker 2: that's not real, Like you know what I'm saying. There 1120 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,000 Speaker 2: are people that might be hating, but most people are 1121 00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:38,800 Speaker 2: rooting for you. 1122 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 5: Yes, so most people are rooting for you. 1123 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 2: But the brain does the brain thing. You know, the 1124 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:46,040 Speaker 2: brain is like, oh, everybody gonna see you tried to 1125 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:48,760 Speaker 2: do that. It didn't work, you know, like that the 1126 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 2: brain is doing that. You know, I am your conscious 1127 00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 2: and so it's been difficult to say that. But once 1128 00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,360 Speaker 2: you say that out loud, once you admit that, once 1129 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:03,080 Speaker 2: you fucking like put it out there. No one can 1130 00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:06,840 Speaker 2: ever use that against me right now, Like if somebody were, 1131 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 2: you know, to say whatever the fuck about me, I 1132 00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 2: already know you know what I'm saying. I'm not saying 1133 00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:17,720 Speaker 2: any of like in a way of like, uh, you 1134 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 2: should let your haters motivate, you know. I'm just saying like, 1135 00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:23,720 Speaker 2: if I want something, I should be able to try. 1136 00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 2: And it's not a threat to anyone else, right, it's not. 1137 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,680 Speaker 2: It's not about you. You shouldn't ever be mad at 1138 00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 2: somebody else's motivation, right ever, it's their motivation, you know, 1139 00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:37,400 Speaker 2: you don't. We don't know all the stories of everybody 1140 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:41,120 Speaker 2: and everything they're going through. We don't know what affects people. 1141 00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:45,360 Speaker 2: You know, you watch you watch people, uh do stuff 1142 00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 2: in life, and you go, oh, man, that that's changed. 1143 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 2: So we can be inspired by people in a positive 1144 00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:54,480 Speaker 2: or negative way. Why are we so adamant on owning everybody? 1145 00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 2: And I think the biggest resistance to listening to Beyonce's 1146 00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 2: albums as the day they come out is in the 1147 01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:06,360 Speaker 2: ownership people seem to want to have over this woman 1148 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,640 Speaker 2: who has decided to not be owned like she everything 1149 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 2: she does is like I'm not. I'm not anybody's bitch. 1150 01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 2: You Like, I will do what I want to do 1151 01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:20,400 Speaker 2: when I want to fucking do it, and tell you 1152 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 2: exactly why I'm doing it so there's no fucking speculation, 1153 01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 2: and then I will abscond to my mansions and I'll 1154 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 2: see you in a few years or whatever. So I think, uh, 1155 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:34,800 Speaker 2: like I said, I find it to be powerful in 1156 01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 2: a way that I envy and that will not envy, 1157 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 2: aspire to in a way that I aspire to be, 1158 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,600 Speaker 2: to be able to say like, yeah, I know this 1159 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:46,000 Speaker 2: is a true thing about myself. Okay, you see it too, 1160 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 2: and what are we gonna do? 1161 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:48,560 Speaker 4: You know? 1162 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:53,840 Speaker 2: And I think that's that's what's Uh, that's that that 1163 01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:57,360 Speaker 2: part of the conversation, that part of the discussion is 1164 01:00:57,360 --> 01:01:01,840 Speaker 2: the part that seems to have been over shadowed by 1165 01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 2: everyone's projection instead of like, what does this really mean 1166 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:07,600 Speaker 2: for this person? And I can just take it at 1167 01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:09,880 Speaker 2: face value? You no, Look, if that infuriates you that 1168 01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:13,160 Speaker 2: this woman who seems to have everything would dare admit 1169 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:17,600 Speaker 2: that white supremacy also bothers her, I'm not really sure 1170 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:21,200 Speaker 2: what we want at that point, because we also get 1171 01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:24,440 Speaker 2: mad if these rich motherfuckers don't acknowledge it. We also 1172 01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:26,880 Speaker 2: get mad if they fake and pretend to do like 1173 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:30,600 Speaker 2: poor people cosplay. There's a lot of there's a lot 1174 01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 2: of anger and people looking for an outlet, and like 1175 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 2: I have a friend that that like, like I have 1176 01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 2: like I have friends that We all have this, people 1177 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:48,720 Speaker 2: that say everything's okay when it's not because we've just 1178 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:51,240 Speaker 2: been told everything. Just act like it's okay and it'll 1179 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 2: be okay. Say it's okay when it's not okay. But 1180 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 2: the most powerful realist thing in a friendship be the 1181 01:01:56,840 --> 01:02:00,160 Speaker 2: moments where people go, I'm actually not okay. That's when 1182 01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:04,840 Speaker 2: the friendship starts. That's when the work of friendship starts. 1183 01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 2: That's when the relationship is honest. You everything up until then, 1184 01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:13,600 Speaker 2: your casual acquaintances, everything's been good. But it's them days 1185 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:15,440 Speaker 2: where it's like I need a person I can be 1186 01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:16,240 Speaker 2: not okay with. 1187 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:18,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know and that. 1188 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:23,000 Speaker 2: And I think seeing people we aspire to be like say, 1189 01:02:23,160 --> 01:02:25,720 Speaker 2: I'm the work I make is because I'm not okay. 1190 01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:28,720 Speaker 2: I don't know why it fucks with people, And I 1191 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 2: think it works both ways. Even the people who are 1192 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 2: nothing but praise, many times dehumanized Beyonce by saying her 1193 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 2: humanity is the performance, not that she's a god diva 1194 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,479 Speaker 2: that has never been affected by anything. Jay Z didn't 1195 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 2: really treat on her. She just made that up. She 1196 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 2: wasn't hurt at all that you know, like that this 1197 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,480 Speaker 2: is not about the CMA. She's just getting revenge on 1198 01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:56,200 Speaker 2: the white folks. It's like or she told us how 1199 01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:59,240 Speaker 2: she felt, and I don't know, I believe her. Why 1200 01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:03,640 Speaker 2: would she be lying today? Like what does she get 1201 01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:05,880 Speaker 2: out of that? So anyway, that's those are my thoughts. 1202 01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:07,560 Speaker 2: I talked for a very long time because I've been 1203 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:10,160 Speaker 2: thinking about this for a very long time. But Karen, 1204 01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:16,560 Speaker 2: go ahead, these things play. I guess you know what, Actually, 1205 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 2: let's play music. So we put commercial here, okay, and 1206 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 2: Karen's gonna come back and bless y'all. Alright, Karen, give 1207 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:48,400 Speaker 2: us them takes. 1208 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:53,360 Speaker 4: I wanted to continue to talk about Beyonce for a 1209 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:53,800 Speaker 4: little bit. 1210 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:56,280 Speaker 2: For me. 1211 01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:01,680 Speaker 4: Listening to Beyonce's Disocraphy, Yeah that I'm using the right 1212 01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:07,920 Speaker 4: word desocraphy. I think for me, Lemonade was her album 1213 01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:10,120 Speaker 4: for me personally, where you. 1214 01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 5: Heard the album where you go? 1215 01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:16,720 Speaker 4: Okay, Beyonce was wrong, but Lemonade was the one where 1216 01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 4: you go oh, like it was like a shift or 1217 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:23,480 Speaker 4: a switch or a change where it's like no, no, no, no, no, 1218 01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:26,680 Speaker 4: no no, You're going to get who this is, really 1219 01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:30,520 Speaker 4: who I am. You're not getting the performance, You're not 1220 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:35,680 Speaker 4: getting a fake defunk. Like I'm going to literally tap 1221 01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:39,400 Speaker 4: within myself and talk about things that I've never talked 1222 01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 4: about before, my marriage, my husband, my children. You know, 1223 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:47,080 Speaker 4: I'm going to really talk about these things that I 1224 01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 4: normally don't share with the world. And I think a 1225 01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:55,960 Speaker 4: lot of what I've realized over the years about artists 1226 01:04:56,400 --> 01:05:00,680 Speaker 4: about music. People consume music and people go, uh, most 1227 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:04,440 Speaker 4: people know that music that moves them is normally and 1228 01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 4: I'm not my ass shaking music, nothing like that. But 1229 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 4: my music that actually just moves the spirit is something 1230 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 4: that a person performs raps or sings or whatever that 1231 01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 4: you can relate to. 1232 01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:17,439 Speaker 2: It's something about it that that that hits your heart 1233 01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:20,680 Speaker 2: where you go ooh, I feel that, and you know, 1234 01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 2: because that's why a lot of women love Mary J. 1235 01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 5: Blige. 1236 01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:27,080 Speaker 4: And I know a lot of people you know, talk 1237 01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:30,480 Speaker 4: about her music, but the shit that she sings about 1238 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,160 Speaker 4: a lot of people can relate to and still can 1239 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 4: continue to relate to So as long as they continue 1240 01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 4: to relate to it moves. And the thing about lemonading, 1241 01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:45,840 Speaker 4: lemonading moved. And some people don't like to be acknowledged 1242 01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:49,520 Speaker 4: with truths, and I think a lot of times people 1243 01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:52,360 Speaker 4: reject artists that actually give them the truth, even though 1244 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 4: a lot of times the truth is the one thing 1245 01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:58,200 Speaker 4: that people can relate to and make albums quote unquote 1246 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:00,720 Speaker 4: stand the test of time, because you've told, most of 1247 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:02,840 Speaker 4: the music that we listen to does not stand the 1248 01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:03,560 Speaker 4: test of time. 1249 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:06,240 Speaker 2: It's your bop, it's your hit if you hear it. 1250 01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:08,560 Speaker 4: Again, no matter how many times you brought back to 1251 01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 4: a certain moment, and you can rock, but you have 1252 01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:16,400 Speaker 4: certain album songs, artists, whatever, then when you hear that you, 1253 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:20,040 Speaker 4: no matter where you are in life, you can always 1254 01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 4: relate to it because it's something about it that taps 1255 01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:26,800 Speaker 4: into your soul. And it's rare that we actually get 1256 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:31,160 Speaker 4: music like that truth be told. And so that particular album, 1257 01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:34,960 Speaker 4: I think, out of all her music up to this point, 1258 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:37,880 Speaker 4: is going to literally, in my for me personally, stand 1259 01:06:37,880 --> 01:06:38,640 Speaker 4: the test of time. 1260 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:41,160 Speaker 5: And so I think that. 1261 01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:44,680 Speaker 4: Also when you were talking about you know, Beyonce and 1262 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:46,800 Speaker 4: her acknowledging. 1263 01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:49,920 Speaker 2: That she was hurt by how they treated her. 1264 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:54,280 Speaker 4: I think that a lot of people don't like to 1265 01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:58,040 Speaker 4: acknowledge shit because we live in a society now where 1266 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:02,720 Speaker 4: acknowledging something is a flaw. Acknowledging something makes you weak. 1267 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:06,520 Speaker 4: Feeling things make you weak. Saying that you will hurt, 1268 01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:10,360 Speaker 4: saying that you're sad, saying saying that you're feeling anything 1269 01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:15,320 Speaker 4: besides anger for justice, you know, or either your happy, 1270 01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:16,640 Speaker 4: happy joy joy all the time. 1271 01:07:16,720 --> 01:07:17,520 Speaker 5: That's not realistic. 1272 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:22,200 Speaker 2: And people don't actually sit in these boxes of joy 1273 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:24,560 Speaker 2: all the time. And anger at the time. That's very unrealistic. 1274 01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 4: And and and and both extremes are not healthy. 1275 01:07:29,560 --> 01:07:31,800 Speaker 5: And so we're human. 1276 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 4: Beings are complex, And like I said, I've realized over 1277 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:37,040 Speaker 4: the years that human beings don't like to don't like 1278 01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:40,880 Speaker 4: to acknowledge that the people that they listen to and 1279 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 4: consume have these problems, because if they acknowledge that for 1280 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:45,840 Speaker 4: some of them, they would have to acknowledge that they 1281 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:48,240 Speaker 4: also have these problems. They would have to also have 1282 01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:51,000 Speaker 4: to acknowledged that there are things in their life, particularly 1283 01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:53,000 Speaker 4: it's something that they can relate to, they have to 1284 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,440 Speaker 4: acknowledge those things too, And it boils back to a 1285 01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,560 Speaker 4: lot of the stuff I talked about before. People don't 1286 01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:05,560 Speaker 4: want to do the enter uh look looking inwards to 1287 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:11,120 Speaker 4: figure out why these things, calls these emotions to pull 1288 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,919 Speaker 4: out of them when quote unquote social media have told 1289 01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:16,280 Speaker 4: you these things are terrible, which is not true. 1290 01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:18,000 Speaker 5: Feelings are fine, y'all. 1291 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 4: Feelings, emotions, anger, sadness, joy, depression, These feelings are fine. 1292 01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:27,439 Speaker 4: The problem is what do you do when you have 1293 01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:30,519 Speaker 4: these feelings? Do you process them? Do you go through them? 1294 01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:32,719 Speaker 4: Do you look do you look it in the face? 1295 01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:35,600 Speaker 4: Do you acknowledge that A. It's some things in me 1296 01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:39,320 Speaker 4: that I personally need to work on. It's some things. 1297 01:08:39,360 --> 01:08:42,280 Speaker 4: Everybody's different, but it's some people that I might need 1298 01:08:42,320 --> 01:08:45,800 Speaker 4: to forgive, including myself, you know. It's some things that 1299 01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 4: I might need to let go of, you know, so 1300 01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:53,800 Speaker 4: that I could press on to not stay stuck, you know, 1301 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:55,559 Speaker 4: because there's a lot of people that are stuck. And 1302 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 4: if you listen to social media, you will never grow 1303 01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:01,760 Speaker 4: past your worst moment. So that's what social media tells people. 1304 01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:04,519 Speaker 4: Social media says, if you fuck up, you are this 1305 01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:06,640 Speaker 4: fuck up right here, you are this fuck up for 1306 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:08,840 Speaker 4: the rest of your life, forever and ever. 1307 01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:09,320 Speaker 5: Amen. 1308 01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:11,840 Speaker 4: No matter what you do, no matter who you saved, 1309 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:15,320 Speaker 4: no matter how much money you give, no matter what 1310 01:09:15,360 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 4: you accomplished in life, we saw you fuck up on 1311 01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:19,360 Speaker 4: this platform, so fuck you. 1312 01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:21,280 Speaker 5: But that's not realistic. 1313 01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 4: And they know that because the thing is, and I've 1314 01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:26,120 Speaker 4: always said this, people have had the ability to grow offline. 1315 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:27,960 Speaker 2: Most the average person has the. 1316 01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 4: Ability to grow, to to evolve, to change, to mature, 1317 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 4: to fuck up without cameras and all this shit being 1318 01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:39,000 Speaker 4: consistently glued and posted in their face. But yet they 1319 01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,640 Speaker 4: go online and they judge everybody else who should hap 1320 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:44,559 Speaker 4: to be public like like like their flaws are meant 1321 01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:47,400 Speaker 4: to be forever. But but but you can hide with yours. 1322 01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:48,960 Speaker 4: And I have compassion. I know a lot of people 1323 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:51,320 Speaker 4: don't have compassion like that, But I have compassion. I 1324 01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 4: have the ability to have an understanding, you know, for that, 1325 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:56,439 Speaker 4: and and and and look at it at a at 1326 01:09:56,439 --> 01:09:59,400 Speaker 4: a bigger and a larger level. And the thing is, 1327 01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:02,320 Speaker 4: I will I meant I'm flawed. I will admit I've grown, 1328 01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:04,640 Speaker 4: I'm mature, I've changed. For people that doesn't listen to 1329 01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:06,720 Speaker 4: our show, as long as you've listened to it, you 1330 01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:10,200 Speaker 4: know that me and Rogers's opinions have grown evolved and changed. 1331 01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 5: We are not the same person that were used to be. 1332 01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:14,120 Speaker 4: And I hope the person listening to my sound of 1333 01:10:14,240 --> 01:10:16,280 Speaker 4: my voice is not the same person that they was 1334 01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:17,400 Speaker 4: ten to fifteen years ago. 1335 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:18,760 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1336 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:23,920 Speaker 2: I think the other thing too, is like I remember 1337 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:27,479 Speaker 2: the reaction of Lemonade that some people had, and a 1338 01:10:27,479 --> 01:10:30,600 Speaker 2: lot of that reaction was really about not wanting to 1339 01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:34,840 Speaker 2: believe that Beyonce could be hurt by a man, all right. 1340 01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:38,200 Speaker 2: You know, like a lot of the rejection was like, Hey, 1341 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:42,040 Speaker 2: if we're saying that she can be hurt by man, 1342 01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:44,439 Speaker 2: then what are we really saying about the rest of 1343 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:49,120 Speaker 2: us out here? And I think that you know that 1344 01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 2: that was what you were talking about. And yeah, like 1345 01:10:55,439 --> 01:10:58,720 Speaker 2: the other thing about Mister Morale and Big Steppers was 1346 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:01,040 Speaker 2: that was an album that made me feel like Kendrick 1347 01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:04,920 Speaker 2: was saying, no one can control me. You can't control me. 1348 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,960 Speaker 2: You can't because the weapons that people use and control 1349 01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:14,679 Speaker 2: each other now in public is a lot of guilt, shame, ridicule, mocking. 1350 01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:17,559 Speaker 2: We say it's okay when it's for the right side, 1351 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:21,040 Speaker 2: and it depends on what side drome that determines which 1352 01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:24,719 Speaker 2: one is right. We've all seen that happen with people 1353 01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:27,880 Speaker 2: where it's like, damn, you're really going in on this 1354 01:11:27,960 --> 01:11:31,400 Speaker 2: motherfucker and I think you just docked them, and I 1355 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:34,720 Speaker 2: think you just threatened them. And it seems like when 1356 01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:37,559 Speaker 2: the other people do that, you cry victim and you 1357 01:11:37,600 --> 01:11:40,040 Speaker 2: say that's wrong, but it's okay for you to do 1358 01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:45,080 Speaker 2: it right now. And it's like he docks himself, you know. 1359 01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:48,320 Speaker 2: It's like it's like he be rabbit in himself at 1360 01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:50,519 Speaker 2: eight miles. He's just like, yeah, I do live with 1361 01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:55,120 Speaker 2: my mom or whatever. And I think that that it 1362 01:11:55,200 --> 01:11:57,760 Speaker 2: does power in that. So yeah, like I said, it's 1363 01:11:57,800 --> 01:12:00,479 Speaker 2: been something that's on my mind. It's not really about Beyonce. 1364 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:04,960 Speaker 2: It's really something else, which is that And I've been 1365 01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:06,920 Speaker 2: thinking it for a while. I was talking to my friend. 1366 01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:09,280 Speaker 2: I knew I was talking a lot, and I was like, 1367 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:11,880 Speaker 2: I the reason I'm talking as much is because I 1368 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,000 Speaker 2: just think about this so much. I just don't talk 1369 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,160 Speaker 2: about it much. Right, I don't even know I've talked 1370 01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:20,320 Speaker 2: about on the show that much. I just don't talk 1371 01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:24,840 Speaker 2: about it much. But I see the damnness of blackness 1372 01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:27,799 Speaker 2: in America of you're damned if you do, you're damned 1373 01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:30,920 Speaker 2: if you don't. But to me, the big honest truth 1374 01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:34,920 Speaker 2: is we're either liars when we say we are not 1375 01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:37,920 Speaker 2: thinking about this stuff we're not affected by it, or 1376 01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:41,479 Speaker 2: we just don't we don't have a full picture of 1377 01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 2: ourselves and see when we are over the line and 1378 01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:47,760 Speaker 2: when we're not. You know, there's a lot of time, 1379 01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:50,040 Speaker 2: like there's people where I talk to that like, I 1380 01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 2: don't believe in respectability. I don't believe that there's any 1381 01:12:54,520 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 2: art we can make as black people that is gonna 1382 01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:59,679 Speaker 2: teach white people the right way. I hate white savor movies, 1383 01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:03,080 Speaker 2: I hate race movies, I hate anything maybe don't feel great, 1384 01:13:03,080 --> 01:13:07,480 Speaker 2: blah blah blah. Right, And then they'll go, I don't 1385 01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:11,360 Speaker 2: you know, I don't even subscribe to all that shit. 1386 01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:13,880 Speaker 2: You know, I'm not even one of these representation matters, motherfuckers. 1387 01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,760 Speaker 2: I just do me. Then the Good Time trailers drop 1388 01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:19,320 Speaker 2: and they're like, white people gonna put us back into slavery. 1389 01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 2: Like it's like white people are gonna watch this and 1390 01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:25,200 Speaker 2: this is gonna be why they are racist because this 1391 01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:28,479 Speaker 2: show was made And I'm like, it's just a fucking 1392 01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:32,200 Speaker 2: TV show. It doesn't get that much power, even though 1393 01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:35,040 Speaker 2: if I hated it, it doesn't get to have that 1394 01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:38,439 Speaker 2: much power over me and my people to where it 1395 01:13:38,479 --> 01:13:42,640 Speaker 2: can't exist or where its existence sets us back. It 1396 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:45,800 Speaker 2: doesn't do shit. It's just a fucking show. If I 1397 01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:47,760 Speaker 2: don't like it, I won't watch it. That's what I 1398 01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,320 Speaker 2: do with millions of show every day. I wake up, 1399 01:13:50,400 --> 01:13:52,840 Speaker 2: don't watch them. I show don't And it don't matter 1400 01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:55,240 Speaker 2: to me, you know, I didn't even like the original 1401 01:13:55,240 --> 01:13:58,080 Speaker 2: Good Times. It don't matter to me. I don't bring 1402 01:13:58,120 --> 01:14:00,200 Speaker 2: it up. I don't make references on the show about it. 1403 01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:02,240 Speaker 2: I'm not angry at it. I don't even have like 1404 01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:04,080 Speaker 2: a hot take on it. I just thought it wasn't 1405 01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:07,200 Speaker 2: that funny to me. I've watched a lot of it 1406 01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:09,639 Speaker 2: with my with my grandmama and stuff. It just wasn't 1407 01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:13,439 Speaker 2: hitting for me in that way. Uh that and it 1408 01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:15,280 Speaker 2: and and for and I'm and I'm not saying I 1409 01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:17,760 Speaker 2: detest it either, like it just it was all right, 1410 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:21,519 Speaker 2: wasn't my favorite, like the Jefferson's better, you know, like 1411 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:25,720 Speaker 2: Frank Saif and his son better, you know. And so 1412 01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:30,640 Speaker 2: my point being, like we we are struggling with a 1413 01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:32,639 Speaker 2: lot of this because a lot of it is we 1414 01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:36,760 Speaker 2: ain't even being honest with ourselves, and so if we 1415 01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:41,000 Speaker 2: were honest with ourselves, honesty might be Hey, I do 1416 01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:44,680 Speaker 2: feel the need for all black images or most like 1417 01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:50,960 Speaker 2: images to be positive, then be honest about that. Don't. Don't. Don't. 1418 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:53,519 Speaker 2: Don't try to make it into the people think it's 1419 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 2: a you thing. You need that because somehow in this world, 1420 01:14:57,040 --> 01:15:01,639 Speaker 2: you think if we put enough positivity out, it'll justify something, 1421 01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:05,280 Speaker 2: it'll make something better, it'll do something. Maybe you're right. 1422 01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:08,439 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't agree. I don't think. I 1423 01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:10,479 Speaker 2: listen to a bunch of music got niggas in it 1424 01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:13,960 Speaker 2: and and and bitches in it. And but I've lived, 1425 01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:16,280 Speaker 2: I've watched too much stuff and lived my life too much. 1426 01:15:16,360 --> 01:15:20,519 Speaker 2: You know that way. May may content that way to 1427 01:15:20,720 --> 01:15:22,600 Speaker 2: even pretend that I believe. 1428 01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:23,960 Speaker 4: That's true, and I don't, And a lot of them 1429 01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:25,920 Speaker 4: don't even believe in themselves. And the reason why I 1430 01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 4: say this is because I've been around long enough and 1431 01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:28,760 Speaker 4: been on the internet long enough. 1432 01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:29,360 Speaker 5: Y'all get this shit. 1433 01:15:29,439 --> 01:15:30,760 Speaker 4: You don't support it, and you know it. Do you 1434 01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:33,519 Speaker 4: watch it? So you don't even believe it. This positive, positive, 1435 01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:37,280 Speaker 4: positive shit. Guess what Aba du Verney put out a 1436 01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:38,920 Speaker 4: bunch of shit. Y'all don't watch that ship, you know, 1437 01:15:39,160 --> 01:15:41,320 Speaker 4: like like like people do this, do the work that 1438 01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:43,400 Speaker 4: y'all quote unquote claim that you want, and then you 1439 01:15:43,479 --> 01:15:45,200 Speaker 4: do not watch it, nor do you support it. 1440 01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:47,960 Speaker 2: It's not the award shows. That's the problem. We don't 1441 01:15:48,200 --> 01:15:51,080 Speaker 2: award shit by our views. A lot of times, correct 1442 01:15:51,479 --> 01:15:53,920 Speaker 2: we we say we want things, but the truth is 1443 01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:58,040 Speaker 2: we don't. We want Tyler Perry, We're we're entertained by 1444 01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:02,439 Speaker 2: that stuff. We want to be on BMF. We want power. 1445 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:06,400 Speaker 2: We like this is that's okay. This is why when 1446 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:09,599 Speaker 2: we used to do the BT Award recap every year, 1447 01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:13,439 Speaker 2: and I remember there was a year where I finally 1448 01:16:13,479 --> 01:16:17,040 Speaker 2: told people, don't write in here anymore calling this show 1449 01:16:17,200 --> 01:16:20,439 Speaker 2: a shame or saying why we got to have this artist, 1450 01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 2: Why can't all the artists do this? Because India already exists, 1451 01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:27,439 Speaker 2: and she's at the award show and she got her segment. 1452 01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:31,880 Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean that whatever rapper doesn't get a 1453 01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:36,520 Speaker 2: segment too. That's black too. We're not whatever whatever illusion 1454 01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:38,479 Speaker 2: of blackness you want to paint us as we're not that. 1455 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:42,960 Speaker 2: We are a fully formed, three dimensional people that has 1456 01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:46,800 Speaker 2: ups and downs, flaws and triumphs, everything like any other 1457 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:49,720 Speaker 2: race of people. And what what why we got to 1458 01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:52,519 Speaker 2: clean up the house like company coming over? Every time 1459 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:55,920 Speaker 2: black people make something, it's a box. It's another box 1460 01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:59,040 Speaker 2: you're putting our creativity in. You're saying I can't paint 1461 01:16:59,080 --> 01:17:02,040 Speaker 2: with my pain. You're saying I can't be motivated by things. 1462 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:04,639 Speaker 2: You're saying I can't be hurt, I can't have flaws, 1463 01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 2: I can't Well, now, I'm just a fucking doll. I'm 1464 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:11,160 Speaker 2: not a person anymore. Don't get a robot. So I 1465 01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:14,240 Speaker 2: think that's what a lot of people end up putting 1466 01:17:14,240 --> 01:17:18,120 Speaker 2: on ourselves. And I think right now, I know I 1467 01:17:18,240 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 2: sound contrarian a lot of times, but I'm not being contrarian. 1468 01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:27,719 Speaker 2: I am resistant and skeptical and cynical to almost all 1469 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 2: of these momentary mass like performance movements online. That's what 1470 01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:39,320 Speaker 2: it really is, when it's everyone needs to hate the 1471 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 2: Good Times trailer the same way, even you niggas who 1472 01:17:42,320 --> 01:17:45,599 Speaker 2: don't watch TV, right, you don't watch TV. Who gives 1473 01:17:45,640 --> 01:17:46,960 Speaker 2: a fuck if you're not gonna watch it, you don't 1474 01:17:46,960 --> 01:17:51,160 Speaker 2: watch shit. I don't like that. You know, when everybody's 1475 01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:53,439 Speaker 2: gotta have a take on Beyonce, I don't. I don't. 1476 01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:56,439 Speaker 2: It's not they can do it. I just don't feel 1477 01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:59,200 Speaker 2: the need to. I don't want to participate in the 1478 01:17:59,240 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 2: conversation with them because it's about something else. Yes, it's 1479 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:05,599 Speaker 2: not really about that album anymore. It's about like, who 1480 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:07,880 Speaker 2: can perform it the best, who can say they like 1481 01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:11,160 Speaker 2: it the most, who can say they hate it the most. 1482 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:13,080 Speaker 2: I don't want to do that part of it. And 1483 01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:19,120 Speaker 2: I think I've just become so jaded by how often 1484 01:18:19,160 --> 01:18:21,679 Speaker 2: I feel like that goes wrong. There's too many things 1485 01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:26,720 Speaker 2: I've enjoyed that either A would not get. They would 1486 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:29,680 Speaker 2: have been trashed out to jump now, but they just 1487 01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:32,040 Speaker 2: happen to get grandfather in before the Internet, such as 1488 01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:35,920 Speaker 2: like Boondocks. Yes, Boondock's original trailer would have been getting 1489 01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:40,480 Speaker 2: the good Times treatment. Yes, I know motherfuckers are gonna disagree, 1490 01:18:40,479 --> 01:18:43,559 Speaker 2: but they only disagreeing because they've already seen Boondocks. They 1491 01:18:43,560 --> 01:18:46,440 Speaker 2: don't have a time machine where we could go unsee Boondocks. 1492 01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:49,000 Speaker 2: Throw the first trailer out there, with the homophobia and 1493 01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:51,360 Speaker 2: the violence and the guns and the rap and the 1494 01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:55,720 Speaker 2: misogyny and then go, this is gonna be a great show. No, 1495 01:18:56,080 --> 01:18:58,280 Speaker 2: most of us would have been like, I don't know 1496 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:00,759 Speaker 2: why they think black people got to be saying nigga 1497 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:04,280 Speaker 2: all the time and pulling a pants sagging and talk 1498 01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:08,000 Speaker 2: about hip hop and and and and and being asside 1499 01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:09,720 Speaker 2: But then when you see the show, you're like, oh, 1500 01:19:09,720 --> 01:19:13,120 Speaker 2: there's layers and thought put into this. You know them 1501 01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:16,479 Speaker 2: another show that was great that black Twitter tried to 1502 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,000 Speaker 2: destroy before it even came out. I think it's actually 1503 01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:22,680 Speaker 2: getting the season two. I'll be watching and they try 1504 01:19:22,720 --> 01:19:24,840 Speaker 2: to destroy it before it even came out. And I 1505 01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:26,960 Speaker 2: went and watched it was like, this was really smart 1506 01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:30,360 Speaker 2: and well done. This is not what you said it was. 1507 01:19:30,680 --> 01:19:34,719 Speaker 4: And another one truth be told is Lovecraft Country. 1508 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:36,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, and the reason. 1509 01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:37,640 Speaker 4: Why IM bringing that one up too, and me you 1510 01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:41,799 Speaker 4: kind of talked about this and it's somewhat frustrating these 1511 01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:46,360 Speaker 4: black people who write for white publications and everything black 1512 01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:50,439 Speaker 4: they hate. And so you know, it's one of those 1513 01:19:50,479 --> 01:19:53,679 Speaker 4: things where for that show, that show is a really 1514 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:55,760 Speaker 4: really good show, and a lot of people literally try 1515 01:19:55,760 --> 01:19:58,400 Speaker 4: to tell that show down and critique it and tear 1516 01:19:58,439 --> 01:19:59,200 Speaker 4: it to pieces. 1517 01:19:59,479 --> 01:20:03,599 Speaker 5: And the thing thing is It's like for me, it. 1518 01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:07,240 Speaker 4: Could be very frustrating because we say we're not a 1519 01:20:07,280 --> 01:20:09,679 Speaker 4: mon left. We say we shee baby to do any 1520 01:20:09,760 --> 01:20:13,840 Speaker 4: and everything like like we say these things, but yet anytime, 1521 01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:16,519 Speaker 4: for a lot of people, anytime something comes out that 1522 01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:21,520 Speaker 4: doesn't fit their bubble, they automatically rejected for various. 1523 01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:24,120 Speaker 2: Well, I have more to go because, like I'm seeing 1524 01:20:24,120 --> 01:20:25,920 Speaker 2: someone in the chat be like, well, I watched Boondocks 1525 01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:27,960 Speaker 2: and I would have loved it even if we had 1526 01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:30,080 Speaker 2: a time machine it just came out today. I love 1527 01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:33,000 Speaker 2: it because I would know cool. I also read the 1528 01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:35,360 Speaker 2: comics and all that shit too. Was looking forward to 1529 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:37,680 Speaker 2: it because I read those comics. But I'm saying if 1530 01:20:37,680 --> 01:20:40,680 Speaker 2: the trailer just dropped, because that trailer was not like 1531 01:20:40,760 --> 01:20:44,920 Speaker 2: the comics, the comics were not all that hip hop 1532 01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:48,120 Speaker 2: and street and Nigga was never set in those fucking comics, 1533 01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:51,840 Speaker 2: so it would have had a contingent of black folks 1534 01:20:51,880 --> 01:20:55,759 Speaker 2: that was like this is an embarrassment and stereotypes period. 1535 01:20:56,280 --> 01:20:59,400 Speaker 2: The Good Times trailer that came out this week had 1536 01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:01,640 Speaker 2: a bunch of other stuff. One of the characters is 1537 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:04,759 Speaker 2: an activist. The one woman seems to be the wife 1538 01:21:04,800 --> 01:21:07,360 Speaker 2: seems to be like politically involved in like city council 1539 01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 2: and shit. So clearly there's gonna be some threats. There's 1540 01:21:10,160 --> 01:21:14,080 Speaker 2: there's them pointing towards the macro issues within h white 1541 01:21:14,120 --> 01:21:17,479 Speaker 2: supremacy that lead to the problems that black people experience 1542 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:20,240 Speaker 2: in poverty and cycles in the ghetto. It's in the trailer. 1543 01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:22,639 Speaker 2: I'm not making any of this up, but we said 1544 01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:26,799 Speaker 2: drug dealing, baby, fuck this shit.
