Speaker 1: with some other people that did like I don't know
Speaker 1: pr type shit or release. I don't know music things.

Speaker 1: brother Michael May's, my little brother Michael May's. He uh
Speaker 1: he does the TV show What's the TV show Raising Canaan?
Speaker 1: He portrays the character spin off of Power of Power
Speaker 1: Yes on the Stars Network. I haven't really watched Raising
Speaker 1: Candy yet. Me neither until they maga so don't have
Speaker 1: to pay, I won't be Oh yeah, well I didn't
Speaker 1: watch Power either. I um all, I've been watching this snowfall.
Speaker 1: Got you snow have any of the Power series is
Speaker 1: like rolled over to like like conventional conventional but like
Speaker 1: streaming shit like a Hulu or Netflix any that. I
Speaker 1: think it's for sure? Okay, Power? I think it was
Speaker 1: on Hulu for a long time. I think it's been
Speaker 1: on Hulu the whole time, huh. Or no, it was
Speaker 1: on the other one. It was on a thing. Um
Speaker 1: who stars fifty at the deal with stars shout out
Speaker 1: the fifth that ship is dope. Um. I never really
Speaker 1: got into Power though, Like it was just I wentn't
Speaker 1: into it. Yeah. Um, I've seen a little the little
Speaker 1: bits and pieces of what's the B and show, But
Speaker 1: it's just every time I see the acting, like I
Speaker 1: don't be buying it. So I kind of hasn't. I
Speaker 1: haven't got into it. Got you, got you? Um, I'm
Speaker 1: big on acting, and I think it's fly casting meets
Speaker 1: you know, a meat sun. I think he's casting in it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I believe so. But it's like I think you do
Speaker 1: be needing actors and shit when it's time to act,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like I can't ye if
Speaker 1: an actor is bad or if an actor is new.
Speaker 1: I mean it's hard for me to buy into it
Speaker 1: thousand percent. Like I thought people were kind of like
Speaker 1: or there was internet chatter anyway. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: could have been ten people I know, Like remember they
Speaker 1: did the NWA movie. There was like internet chatter kind
Speaker 1: of complaining about how they didn't use a little easy
Speaker 1: Eat Sun in the movie. Yeah, I'm like, I said,
Speaker 1: an actor. Nah, and that's the thing I remember real
Speaker 1: money behind that. Yeah. Little he was the little either
Speaker 1: homey tool was a good nigga Cornton nigga solid shout
Speaker 1: out to look. But um, I understand because I appreciated
Speaker 1: them using you know that character that they used Jason.
Speaker 1: I think it's Jason Mitchell. He was dope that, like
Speaker 1: they casted the NWA movie great, um cube Son he
Speaker 1: ended up becoming like you know, and and it's and
Speaker 1: I guess that became a complaint. It was like they're
Speaker 1: using cube Son, but they're not using Little E. And
Speaker 1: Little E is somewhat of an entertainer, like he's a
Speaker 1: he's more of a rapper, you know, putting it together.
Speaker 1: Acting is a really underrated skill. And I think Cube
Speaker 1: Son he was always like training to be an actor. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, he was always training to be an actor.
Speaker 1: So I love how they cast it. I mean I
Speaker 1: wish it was another way that Little Eka had been involved,
Speaker 1: but I think they cast it d out of comping perfect.
Speaker 1: Like I love the acting in it. Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: I think sometimes with a lot of these reenactment type
Speaker 1: of movies of the modern day, casting and viewership and
Speaker 1: stuff gets a little too hung up on just to
Speaker 1: a degree, how much the main character like physically looks
Speaker 1: like the guy, And by the time you're thirty minutes
Speaker 1: into the thing, if he sucks but looks like the guy,
Speaker 1: you're better off of the guy doesn't look quite so
Speaker 1: much like him, but actually knocks out the part, you
Speaker 1: know what. That's how I feel about I forgot how
Speaker 1: Ray Charles look at the Jamie Fox played him, to
Speaker 1: get a while to get it back in my mind
Speaker 1: that Ray Charles. You know, Jamie Fox wasn't Ray Charles
Speaker 1: because you know, yeah, like he killed it, you know
Speaker 1: what that's like? Uh, The Brother Rest in Peace. Chadwick
Speaker 1: Boseman that played James Brown and he played Jackie Robinson,
Speaker 1: and I bought both roles. I thought he did spectacler
Speaker 1: Um Yeah, Will Smith and Alie. I didn't necessarily see that,
Speaker 1: but it was cool, you know, I wasn't. I just
Speaker 1: remember who Ali was, so I never bought it all.
Speaker 1: I think Denzel Washington did a good job at Malcolm X. Yeah,
Speaker 1: That's another great example. And like even back in the day,
Speaker 1: like who's the guy I remembally did like them a
Speaker 1: movie where about Louke Garrick. Oh, y'all remember that yept
Speaker 1: like we played him. I almost like when I was
Speaker 1: a kid, I was like confused as to which was
Speaker 1: the movie scene which was the actual scene of him saying,
Speaker 1: I'm the luckiest man on the face of the earth. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you gotta have quality actors, um and a lot of
Speaker 1: these roles, especially when you know, especially in these in
Speaker 1: these stories that are kind of like especially urban stories,
Speaker 1: because I think that's where you hear the most shatter
Speaker 1: at in the urban stories, because you know, you feel like, um,
Speaker 1: you're aware of the characters versus the whole world who
Speaker 1: don't really you know, the I don't know if the
Speaker 1: whole world know exactly what NWA looked like, Like I
Speaker 1: think they heard the name, maybe they might have heard
Speaker 1: the song, but to believe they know which each member was,
Speaker 1: you know, you're making movies for wide audience. Jennifer Hudson
Speaker 1: played Aretha Franklin. I thought she did a great job
Speaker 1: and that and I knew she didn't look like Aretha Franklin,
Speaker 1: but she did the job so well. You know, it
Speaker 1: was dope. The Temptations, the miniseries that was on television,
Speaker 1: that was fantastic too. So I think as long as
Speaker 1: you cast well, they don't have to be, you know,
Speaker 1: exact replicause of the people like I think. I think
Speaker 1: in a Tupac movie, like, I love the actor they used,
Speaker 1: and a lot of people I know fuck with him.
Speaker 1: He's a solid dude, that actor. But you know, when
Speaker 1: you don't have a super were over qualified actor carrying
Speaker 1: some of these films, it's just tough. Yeah, it's funny
Speaker 1: for a lot of years, like the blue Print, particularly
Speaker 1: with people who, um maybe weren't quite as famous. But
Speaker 1: we're based on the life of you know whoever. The
Speaker 1: Hollywood model is just look, just find the best looking
Speaker 1: person we could possibly cast. That's that's like kind of close.
Speaker 1: You know. I feel like I feel like Jennier for
Speaker 1: Lopez killed Selena's getting I love Jennifer Lopez a Selena. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's another great example. That's another great example. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: she did, but she she kind of her and Selena
Speaker 1: ain't far apart. True true, true. Um, even like you
Speaker 1: seem like like Aaron Brockovich. She looks like a nice lady.
Speaker 1: She's you know, did a great job with what kind
Speaker 1: of stuff that's made her famous. They just were like,
Speaker 1: I will throw her, well throw Julia Roberts. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I shouldn't get funky, no ceilings, gl my man Peter
Speaker 1: in the spot getting it in y'all bear with me, Like,
Speaker 1: I'm just coming back from this injury, so I am
Speaker 1: not jamming like normally. Normally we drop in two podcasts
Speaker 1: a week and no ceiling, and the goal was to
Speaker 1: keep it going this year. But reconstructing of the teller
Speaker 1: tending is you know, a completely different surgery. It's a
Speaker 1: major surgery that doesn't seem like much, or I thought
Speaker 1: it wasn't much, But taking a tending out of a
Speaker 1: cadaver and putting it inside of your body and getting
Speaker 1: your body to take it in and start working with it,
Speaker 1: it's challenging as shit, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: forgive me if we're a little spotty, but we're finna
Speaker 1: get back jamming, like I said, this season because a
Speaker 1: ton of of of of conversations, you know, we don't
Speaker 1: no sailings ain't about interviews. This ain't no interview for him. Like,
Speaker 1: if we talking with somebody, they got to be able
Speaker 1: to add to our conversation. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: This is all about conversations that need to be had.
Speaker 1: If you feel like you want us to explore a
Speaker 1: part of this, you know what I mean, life that
Speaker 1: people scared too, y'all. Just make sure y'all tweet or
Speaker 1: ig mea Pete or the cousins and we'll make sure
Speaker 1: we have it and we'll put other people into conversations.
Speaker 1: But you know, as just moving forward, I wanted to
Speaker 1: make sure people know like we're not fing to be
Speaker 1: I'm not asking no nigga about the record. I don't
Speaker 1: even talk about my motherfucking records, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So that's not what this is. This is all about
Speaker 1: exploring those uncomfortable places that you know, humans or the
Speaker 1: culture in general, the culture or humans in general don't
Speaker 1: want to explore. So I like to think those Simmons
Speaker 1: is about I think we make some people uncomfortable. I'd
Speaker 1: like to think that people uncomfortable. Yeah, yeah, somebody got
Speaker 1: to take the dive though, you know that. I feel
Speaker 1: like no seilings is the Marianna you know, we we
Speaker 1: all we do is focus on the Marianna Trench. You know,
Speaker 1: I think we look at a lot of other podcasts
Speaker 1: stay in the widen pool, and I respect it. It's
Speaker 1: a it's a huge audience that don't want to go
Speaker 1: in deep waters. They want to stay in the widden pool.
Speaker 1: They want to stay in two feet and how to
Speaker 1: float the zone and be in the you know, being
Speaker 1: a little donuts, the rubber donuts floating around. This is
Speaker 1: for deep divers. And we want to know when you
Speaker 1: get deep that the pressure gets high. Yeah, that pressure
Speaker 1: doing start and people bravy when they explode. People was
Speaker 1: talking to me about the last time we got together,
Speaker 1: and it's funny because when we do no selings together,
Speaker 1: I feel like we have the greatest conversations. Right. There's
Speaker 1: a part where I relate to your intellect and your
Speaker 1: and your you know, your vast knowledge and understanding of
Speaker 1: the mainstream, you know, every day existence. And then I
Speaker 1: feel like I translate it to people who don't know
Speaker 1: what the fuck you're talking about, and they think I'm
Speaker 1: translating to them, but I'm really explaining it to myself
Speaker 1: in a digestible way. And then they're like, Oh, I
Speaker 1: get what he's saying now because I'm explaining it to myself. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, unfortunately I need to do. You know how
Speaker 1: when they do the State of the Union address afterwards,
Speaker 1: the opposing party comes and give us like a response.
Speaker 1: Usually my best thoughts regarding what you say on the
Speaker 1: show come thirty minutes after, Like I need to be
Speaker 1: like Sarah Huckabey Sanders and do a post show wrap
Speaker 1: up show. I thought about that, you know what I
Speaker 1: thought about for you? I thought for you would be
Speaker 1: a dope. Idea is when you hear see you your
Speaker 1: understanding of urban you know, culture and philosophy, it's superior
Speaker 1: than most white folks. So I feel like you could
Speaker 1: do a review thing on YouTube where you watching the
Speaker 1: situation happen and explaining it to white people every day. Oh,
Speaker 1: that would be funny because you wouldn't know, like whatever
Speaker 1: skirmish is happening and what they're talking about when they're talking.
Speaker 1: You know how niggas get jaw jacking with each other
Speaker 1: and popping that ship. You wouldn't know what they're talking about.
Speaker 1: So if you did that and pause and then explained
Speaker 1: it and regular white people talk like a film breakdown. Yeah, funny,
Speaker 1: or like or like the side language people, Oh you
Speaker 1: have a you have a dope feel breakdown, and you
Speaker 1: just start explaining these these these these skirmishes, in these
Speaker 1: moments where people was going crazy, you just break it
Speaker 1: down and straight mainstream white American language, like, this is
Speaker 1: what's going on, and you could really get into why
Speaker 1: you know because you know a little bit more way funny,
Speaker 1: here's the background of why this started before what we
Speaker 1: see on the video. This is the build up, and
Speaker 1: now we'll cut to the footage exactly. So, yeah, but
Speaker 1: how you feel about this whole shit going on with everybody?
Speaker 1: So fuck all that, Let's start with this. I am
Speaker 1: getting upset that people are mad that other people are
Speaker 1: by verification checks on Instagram. The verification check thing, to me,
Speaker 1: I agree with you, the fact people care that was
Speaker 1: the stupidest thing in the fucking world. If you could
Speaker 1: have magically liked and there were some people that, like
Speaker 1: maybe Twitter didn't want to give a check to because
Speaker 1: they were controversial. If that's you, Let's say you slip
Speaker 1: through the cracks and you've got three hundred thousand followers
Speaker 1: and you're unverified, but Joe Blow has six thousand and
Speaker 1: they're verified. The check doesn't matter the number matters. But
Speaker 1: but you know what the verification is that it's just you.
Speaker 1: Like I saw different artists and different people like, you know,
Speaker 1: I worked my ass off to give my check, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, you worked your ass off to prove that
Speaker 1: you're you. Yeah, that's all it is. Like the verified
Speaker 1: is like, oh, this is this person. There's no even
Speaker 1: when I got verified, I think it mattered to other people.
Speaker 1: It never mattered to me. I never looked at nobody
Speaker 1: account like oh this person isn't verified, or this person
Speaker 1: isn't verified. But I noticed that there was like this
Speaker 1: huge close uproar of people upset that people wanted to
Speaker 1: have a verified check. And I just didn't understand why
Speaker 1: the fuck it matter. Like if a motherfucker want to
Speaker 1: say this is them. If John Smith is like, oh
Speaker 1: this is me, he got a verified check that this
Speaker 1: is John Smith, why the fuck does that matter? It
Speaker 1: doesn't at all. I mean I think I almost want
Speaker 1: to say, like, you know, a lot of years ago,
Speaker 1: now Shock was the first person whose name was the
Speaker 1: real Shock or whatever, like to actually put the real
Speaker 1: in your name, huh, and now I see like just
Speaker 1: any old idiots, like the real Bob mcgoverned, like no
Speaker 1: one knew who then is the fake? Yeah? Really what
Speaker 1: blows me away is it's funny when you said because
Speaker 1: he made me think of rappers when the first thing
Speaker 1: they get in front of Mike, they like, you already
Speaker 1: know who it is. No, I don't know who it is.
Speaker 1: I know how we rocking. No I don't know how
Speaker 1: y'all rocking. Or I'm saying yeah, No, I don't know
Speaker 1: what you're Oh, I killed still with that. Still boy
Speaker 1: would still get to say that ship you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying to y'all, be like, yes, I understand, Yes,
Speaker 1: I know what you're saying. He at least Steele says that.
Speaker 1: He'd be like, you know what I'm saying, Jay, and
Speaker 1: this shit right here, and I just got this, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, And then I'll be listening. He'll
Speaker 1: get yeah, you know what I'm saying. Yes, I know
Speaker 1: exactly what you are saying. It just deflated cuse hole balloon.
Speaker 1: You could just see he just be the fucking glasses.
Speaker 1: And I think to myself, sometimes people make me think
Speaker 1: that I am an asshole. Right, and I'm not. It's
Speaker 1: like sometimes I really just will engage you. And I
Speaker 1: noticed that people on Twitter, people on Instagram like, whatever
Speaker 1: you think I got, whatever property I own, whatever Moneys,
Speaker 1: low Riders, whatever I got, will not stop me from
Speaker 1: engaging you. I will fucking engage you, bro. Like, if
Speaker 1: you say something to me, now, if you start talking
Speaker 1: about whooping my ass, that's dear, I ain't gonna say nothing.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just blow your picture up and hope to
Speaker 1: God I see you. And if you're friends with somebody,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk to your friends like, hey, where this
Speaker 1: person be at? So I'm going to engage in real
Speaker 1: life then, but perk conversation for me, I am going
Speaker 1: to engage you if you have something to say to me,
Speaker 1: like I try to respond and like I've heard people like,
Speaker 1: well I only got thirteen followers and you're and you're
Speaker 1: talking back to me. It's like, Nigga, what the fuck
Speaker 1: do it difference if it make how many followers you got. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's the truth. That's the same thing as like
Speaker 1: people nowadays very common you hear like what is it
Speaker 1: the argue, like arguing from the argument of superiority or
Speaker 1: whatever the hell. Well, like like Anthony Fauci, Well, I'm
Speaker 1: ahead of the the Center for Infectious Diseases and Allergies
Speaker 1: and whatever the fuck that. I forgot the whole acronym now.
Speaker 1: But it's like, okay, yeah, but you're wrong. I don't
Speaker 1: care like you've been. You're demonstrably wrong. And like when
Speaker 1: he went up in DC to the black Dude, the
Speaker 1: black dude ate his lunch on the front porch, just
Speaker 1: made a fool of them. Yeah, I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: it it's weird. So you have that group of people
Speaker 1: who like talking shit about them. Oh you know, I
Speaker 1: never pay to get my account verified. I'm not mad
Speaker 1: at that, Like I feel you, like, I understand that
Speaker 1: it is weird to spend money to prove that you
Speaker 1: you you right. But I don't think this whole, like
Speaker 1: the Verify, I just didn't know when it became a
Speaker 1: status symbol. And how do humans make something as simple
Speaker 1: as a driver's license on Instagram, because that's all it is.
Speaker 1: It is like an official driver's license on Instagram. How
Speaker 1: do you make that an accomplishment the human beings? Because
Speaker 1: it's so weird. They fucked on my mind all the time,
Speaker 1: the fact that they make simple things because accomplishments, right,
Speaker 1: Like somebody asking for my credits, like, yeah, my score
Speaker 1: is seven to seventy five. He's like, oh man, your
Speaker 1: score is good. I'm like, so what that just means
Speaker 1: I could borrow money? Yeah, Like, if I need to
Speaker 1: borrow money, I already got a problem. I don't have
Speaker 1: enough money for me. Like so like if I went
Speaker 1: to the if I went to the car lot and
Speaker 1: they said, okay, you know this car is eighty thousand,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, well, we'll loan you the eighty thousand
Speaker 1: and three percent. The problem is I need to borrow
Speaker 1: I don't got enough money just to pay for the car. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you hear a thousand people like, oh, well, you know
Speaker 1: you can have enough money, but you want to invest
Speaker 1: in other things. It's like, no, I need to have
Speaker 1: enough money to why I could just buy the car.
Speaker 1: I don't want to borrow three percent of shit. I
Speaker 1: don't want to pay three percent back. Yeah, oh well
Speaker 1: you could take your money and you could make seven percent,
Speaker 1: and it's brow I just want to afford the car.
Speaker 1: If if you need to run my credit score for
Speaker 1: me to buy something, it means I can't afford it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's seriously. Like I'm trying to move apartments and I'm
Speaker 1: just like, dude, just I'll buy the whole goddamn lease.
Speaker 1: What's what's twenty grand? Like exactly? But what are you doing?
Speaker 1: Just fucking christ Man? Like, how like do you like?
Speaker 1: I'll show here, here's here's a screenshot of my account
Speaker 1: and all the money, and I'll just moved ship into
Speaker 1: it and I'll move it back out after him done.
Speaker 1: Whatever the hell? But the money's there? How fucking worthless
Speaker 1: dumb shit with money would I have to be to
Speaker 1: piss through the difference between the fucking value of this
Speaker 1: lease and what's there? Like, just give it a goddamn apartment.
Speaker 1: Moving on, And so you got this culture of motherfucker's
Speaker 1: bragging about having a driver's license on Instagrams, which is
Speaker 1: a verification more and then you got another culture of
Speaker 1: motherfucker's talking shit about people who want to buy a
Speaker 1: driver's license. Mhm. Like the smart thing to do is
Speaker 1: if you're like famous and you don't have and it stagram,
Speaker 1: just lay low and let somebody else misrepresent you and
Speaker 1: soothe them and Instagram that's the move don't pay them,
Speaker 1: soothe them them. It started on Twitter. Now I was
Speaker 1: on Instagram and it's just too I just get disappointed
Speaker 1: every day with the interaction of human beings. I was
Speaker 1: tripping off this ship that was going on on Instagram
Speaker 1: and now I understand what the definition of a mass
Speaker 1: shooting is. I'm very much aware a shooting of mass
Speaker 1: people is a mass shooting. But I've grew up in
Speaker 1: my life, my whole life in Compton and watch where
Speaker 1: people got shot. And I've never in my life heard
Speaker 1: three or four people that got shot referred to as
Speaker 1: a mass shooting. Right they drive by. Happened last night
Speaker 1: on Poplar Street in Compton for individuals got shot, I've
Speaker 1: never in my life heard it called a mass shooting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: everybody I know identify a mass shooting is when somebody
Speaker 1: shot a bunch of innocent people. Yeah. My personal definition
Speaker 1: of a quote unquote mass shooting is is defined by
Speaker 1: the media without defining it is somebody shot a lot
Speaker 1: of people with a gun in their name. That's when
Speaker 1: a mass shooting is. According to get it too, because
Speaker 1: you write off all of god ready to heed fucking
Speaker 1: people or they appearance and shit. So when they say
Speaker 1: mass shooting, I'm thinking we can legislate against that's a
Speaker 1: mass shooting. Hey, it's so funny. Could people be arguing
Speaker 1: about guns? And I've always had this solution, no guns
Speaker 1: for nobody. If the police and everybody else give up
Speaker 1: their guns, I give a mind. But if somebody got
Speaker 1: one gun, I need my gun because I don't know
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna running too that motherfucker with that gun. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So right, So I've always heard a mass shooting as
Speaker 1: when somebody walks in and just shoot a bunch of
Speaker 1: and it's in people. That's just. And now for them
Speaker 1: to constantly reference these situations as one, and I think
Speaker 1: it's all in that same right, that that propaganda to
Speaker 1: to go against guns. And it's weird to me, right
Speaker 1: because I never had bought a gun in my name
Speaker 1: until I probably didn't need to buy a gun in
Speaker 1: my name. Yeah, every gun I ever ascertained growing up
Speaker 1: was not registered to me, so the gun laws never mattered.
Speaker 1: Now I can see if you know people was protesting
Speaker 1: Smith and Weston. You know every day they outside of
Speaker 1: Smith and Wesson would pick a signs every day, piketing it,
Speaker 1: and they're going crazy. I could see that would make sense. Okay,
Speaker 1: you're against guns, but it seems like people are only
Speaker 1: against guns for people who actually buy them legally. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: I saw a study like in twenteen the border was shut,
Speaker 1: it was like one in ten of the crossings that
Speaker 1: are happening now. I think they estimated some like I
Speaker 1: don't want to be off a decimal. If I'm off
Speaker 1: a decimal, I'll aim at low. Okay it would have
Speaker 1: been seven. It's either seven twenty or seventy two thousand
Speaker 1: illegal firearms and earned the country through the southern border
Speaker 1: that year. Right. Well, now, words wide open. So when
Speaker 1: I was in Arizona back in the day, if I
Speaker 1: needed something, I knew where to find it and I
Speaker 1: knew who I was going to find it from. That's
Speaker 1: all I would say. It's a much more complicated matter
Speaker 1: if you want to talk about those ones and that
Speaker 1: supply chain, you know. Yeah, Hm, I just don't know
Speaker 1: how people just I'm really trying to understand how people
Speaker 1: really like the social perspective, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Like this desire to socially see things in this correct
Speaker 1: manner that doesn't correlate to real life. Well, this issue
Speaker 1: with Timmy. The thing with the check that set the
Speaker 1: standard was if people are all also desperate for approval
Speaker 1: and validation. So if you're like my account on Twitter,
Speaker 1: Twitter Inc never the time to verify my account because
Speaker 1: they didn't care if I was falsely propagating information out
Speaker 1: to seventeen people who followed me until I said something
Speaker 1: about that fucking virus in a lab study. Then they
Speaker 1: kicked my ass out of there, But for the previous
Speaker 1: few years they didn't give a shit. You have to
Speaker 1: be significant enough to have to get verified. And if
Speaker 1: people are obsessed with feeling as if they are significant enough,
Speaker 1: because most of them are not m So this is
Speaker 1: all that same desire to be relevant, yes to map
Speaker 1: and to be validated. That's a stamp of validation. Bob,
Speaker 1: you got ten thousand followers. We know you who we
Speaker 1: know who you are. We had to look into you.
Speaker 1: But the way you used to get verified on Instagram
Speaker 1: used to be like if somebody ran an article or
Speaker 1: like like for rap at least for rap music. Oh ye,
Speaker 1: public article about you. A couple of public articles on
Speaker 1: you know, well respected and represented you know platforms and media.
Speaker 1: You know your publishers would take that information and take
Speaker 1: it to Instagram, and Instagram will say, okay, you know
Speaker 1: this is the real person. Now they're just saying, hey,
Speaker 1: give us your driver's license and you're the real youth.
Speaker 1: You know what probably happened behind the scenes then spun
Speaker 1: this from that type of reasonable level to the level
Speaker 1: of hysteria that it became. You probably had a bunch
Speaker 1: of girls who gathered a bunch of fucking followers with
Speaker 1: booty pictures, and somebody else made a fake page of
Speaker 1: the same girl with the same booty pictures and happened
Speaker 1: to beat the first girl, the real under the punch
Speaker 1: with the cash app and ended up, you know, inbox
Speaker 1: listening all of the real booty picture posters cash to
Speaker 1: the wrong cash app. That's probably what happened. They they're like,
Speaker 1: I didn't get this booty verified man Instagram. Man got numb.
Speaker 1: But girls busting it open nothing, They just every one
Speaker 1: of them showing. I mean, I guess we all have that,
Speaker 1: you know, that inner desire to to matter, But at
Speaker 1: what I mean, I don't know, I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: a frustrating. It's a frustrating cycle. I tell you that much.
Speaker 1: I get frustrated all the time watching people like put
Speaker 1: people down because they paid for um, like they paid
Speaker 1: for a verification, and I'm like, well, if that matters
Speaker 1: to them, what difference does it make to you? Yeah? Um?
Speaker 1: I used to watch people like talk to me on
Speaker 1: Twitter like as I would look at Twitter and if
Speaker 1: somebody agree with my opinion, they'd be like, that's why
Speaker 1: nobody like this tweet. That's why nobody liked that tweet.
Speaker 1: It's like, I didn't write the tweet for people to
Speaker 1: like it. I wrote the tweet because I wanted to
Speaker 1: disseminate the thought. And that's when I start realizing how
Speaker 1: many people I had this conversation with Van and Charlottamagne
Speaker 1: and the group text, and how many people say the
Speaker 1: things that people want to hear. They will say what
Speaker 1: people want to hear just for their validation, And I'm like,
Speaker 1: at what expense, Like, even amongst my private friends, I
Speaker 1: won't say what they want to hear just to get
Speaker 1: their validation, let alone a bunch of strangers. Like if
Speaker 1: what I started to realize is if I wanted to
Speaker 1: to to make millions of dollars at ease, I could
Speaker 1: just say what everybody wants me to say all day,
Speaker 1: but something inside of me will not allow that type
Speaker 1: of ship to fucking happen. I don't get it, Pete,
Speaker 1: What am I missing? Man? What am I missing? That
Speaker 1: makes people that type of sucker? It's you understand what
Speaker 1: money represents, you know, some people just it's it's the
Speaker 1: same way as like if someone gave me a Ferrari tomorrow,
Speaker 1: same look, I'll make it even more, you know, like
Speaker 1: whatever embarrassing. I guess if if I won a Ferrari
Speaker 1: on the internet or my dad gave me a Ferrari tomorrow,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't drive it up and down Collins in Miami
Speaker 1: Beach like I was the motherfucking man, as if I
Speaker 1: was the thing that the car represented. Society now just
Speaker 1: wants the thing. They don't want to build what the
Speaker 1: thing is supposed to be behind representing. They don't give
Speaker 1: a fuck about the accomplishment. They just want the fucking thing.
Speaker 1: I think that's a big part of it. Why is
Speaker 1: that though people are fucking lazy, the path the least
Speaker 1: resistance is common. I mean, like that's we're got no prime.
Speaker 1: They just want the ship whatever. I mean, people like, seriously,
Speaker 1: how many guys don't do. It's quite so much, thank god.
Speaker 1: But how many girls will stand there and take a
Speaker 1: selfie in front of a car that they do not own?
Speaker 1: Like that's a thing, that's a real common thing. Could
Speaker 1: you imagine standing in front of a car that you
Speaker 1: didn't own and taking a selfie as if it were
Speaker 1: somehow like like you accomplished finding this in a parking lot. No,
Speaker 1: I couldn't imagine. Matter. Hey, bro, next time I come
Speaker 1: to the studio, bring your nicest watch. I want to
Speaker 1: put it on my arm and take a picture of
Speaker 1: it as if I did something that earned me enough
Speaker 1: money to purchase that watch. God, I feel good about
Speaker 1: myself then. So at that point, is the actual achievement
Speaker 1: or just the acclaim you get from the ignorant consensus.
Speaker 1: So it's just really just the approval at that point.
Speaker 1: It's not even really the watch. It's not even the
Speaker 1: long term value of the watch. It's just the approval
Speaker 1: of the ignorant consensus of people that don't know you
Speaker 1: saying you got this watch. That's how I perceive it.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're concerned about the check, the check
Speaker 1: says that you've accomplished enough to become a public figure.
Speaker 1: And we're going to verify that this is the accurate
Speaker 1: account of a public figure. People don't give a fuck
Speaker 1: about all the work and the accomplishment and the skill
Speaker 1: set and god knows whatever else it takes to become
Speaker 1: that public figure. Don't give a fuck. They just give
Speaker 1: about the check. Let me ask you a question. Is
Speaker 1: this a conversation only into the people that's in the note?
Speaker 1: I don't think this is a conversation to the mass
Speaker 1: perception of people on Instagram. Like if let's say how
Speaker 1: many people are intram Let's say it is hundred four
Speaker 1: hundred million people on Instagram. Yeah, let's say it's four
Speaker 1: hundred million people on Instagram. Um, I genuinely think people
Speaker 1: most people don't know that you could buy the check
Speaker 1: only the people in the note. That's how that. Other
Speaker 1: than that scans wouldn't work. Yeah, I mean I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, like they the app did. Okay, so the
Speaker 1: app did put a mask like notification out of it
Speaker 1: for like a week, So maybe a lot of people know.
Speaker 1: But I'm not so sure that, Like, I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're probably right. I don't think that Joe Blow, who's
Speaker 1: just on there looking at pictures of like labradors and
Speaker 1: like cat videos, particularly cares. It's just a matter of
Speaker 1: you know whether or not, Like I do, see a
Speaker 1: lot of people post about it that didn't have them
Speaker 1: and weren't going to get them anyway, and now they're
Speaker 1: all bent out of shape. And I know why they've
Speaker 1: been a shape. They've been in a shape because they
Speaker 1: probably don't want to be that person to go buy one.
Speaker 1: But they also don't want to be the only person
Speaker 1: in their group or against whom they think they're competing
Speaker 1: for attention on that platform to not buy one. So
Speaker 1: it kind of becomes this exclusionary type of concern, where
Speaker 1: like if you maybe there's fifty accounts just like yours,
Speaker 1: you don't want to be the one person who's not
Speaker 1: getting whatever minimal acclaim just simply having a check mark
Speaker 1: there might yield you. I wonder if somebody ever got
Speaker 1: pussy because they had a check more, I'm sure of it,
Speaker 1: especially early on, you think a verification got somebody's in pussy.
Speaker 1: I am very confident that there are even more minimal
Speaker 1: accomplishments that have gotten many people a lot of pussy.
Speaker 1: Was the most minimum accomplishment that you think got somebody
Speaker 1: some pussy. I'll bet every Friday and Saturday night in
Speaker 1: about twenty cities in this country, somebody gets some pussy
Speaker 1: because their friend bought a table at a nightclub and
Speaker 1: they're standing next to him. How's that for one? So
Speaker 1: you think passenger side getting some pussy in a nice car? Yeah? Absolutely,
Speaker 1: I think I think Turtle got pussy on that TV
Speaker 1: show what was that called Entourage? Yeah, and I don't
Speaker 1: think it's uncommon either that, you know, me and Jamaican
Speaker 1: Andre joke about that. How the culture in LA is
Speaker 1: so fucking just lazy and degenerate that there's people like
Speaker 1: when you go like the after parties to Hollywood Hills,
Speaker 1: there are bitches who will suck a guy's dick because
Speaker 1: they said they're so and so publicist cousin. For Christ's sake,
Speaker 1: you don't have to do anything in La. You just
Speaker 1: gotta know somebody that did a thing in LA and
Speaker 1: a bitch will sucker dick for it. That's a fact.
Speaker 1: I've watched it happened for years really short of God, Yeah,
Speaker 1: have ever got some pussy from being somebody partner? I'll
Speaker 1: bet people got some pussy being your partner, you know,
Speaker 1: that's you know that I could never be that arrogant
Speaker 1: to decide that. But I've missed suspicions. You know what
Speaker 1: I got pussy from abroad being pluged little homie m
Speaker 1: because I don't think the girl would have gave me
Speaker 1: pussy if I wasn't plug little hommy. There you go,
Speaker 1: pussy by association. It's a beautiful thing. PDA. You down
Speaker 1: with PBA. I think we got a remix coming, bro?
Speaker 1: What does that say about women? The same thing I
Speaker 1: usually say about them? Oh god, I'm not fenna going
Speaker 1: down this rabbit though, this rabbit hole. Go get crazy.
Speaker 1: I ain't working with this one. Yeah, no, back, we'll
Speaker 1: stick on. What How about the tension now that that
Speaker 1: that restrict Act might be passed as a means of
Speaker 1: blocking Twitter out of the I'm sorry TikTok out of
Speaker 1: the marketplace, and I've seen that shit. I haven't gotten
Speaker 1: a TikTok. Now, I have a TikTok. I don't use
Speaker 1: it a ton, and all my boys bragged to me
Speaker 1: how dope it is, especially on breaking content. So i've i've,
Speaker 1: i've it's pretty much the lead thing breaking. But I
Speaker 1: see they saying they about to block it in America.
Speaker 1: Is that is that really gonna happen. If it happens,
Speaker 1: it will be for the following two reasons. One because
Speaker 1: in spite of how much money the Chinese quote unquote
Speaker 1: in vest in US senators, Silicon Valley, big corporations, big
Speaker 1: tech invest even more so as TikTok begins to gobble
Speaker 1: up more and more and more and more market share
Speaker 1: for attention hours per day of users in the United States, Meta, Google, etc.
Speaker 1: Are going to try to, you know, get something in
Speaker 1: the way to create a barrier, ventry, barrier of access,
Speaker 1: all because TikTok is not in Silicon Valley like the
Speaker 1: rest of them. Yeah, and because they because they can.
Speaker 1: Why do it? Because they can't. The other reason is
Speaker 1: there's language in that law that is very vague that
Speaker 1: I've heard it referred to as the Patriot Act of Information,
Speaker 1: meaning that if there's stuff in the law that includes,
Speaker 1: if you use a VPN for the wrong reason, you
Speaker 1: can get ten years. Stuff in the law that says, oh,
Speaker 1: it's like it's like conspiracy, ordem conduct codes and the
Speaker 1: NBA exactly. You just don't like it. There's a vague misinformation. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: So so a lot of conservative media, um, you know,
Speaker 1: voices and journalists say it uses a language that would
Speaker 1: set up Trump's truth social Rumble and other six you
Speaker 1: know daily wire like you know, conservative media platforms that
Speaker 1: would be highly exposed to getting shut down, censored, or
Speaker 1: whatever the hell by the US government pursuant to this
Speaker 1: law as well. How do you feel about it if
Speaker 1: they wrote the law better. I don't know enough about
Speaker 1: what's really in the code. The problem with a lot
Speaker 1: of these quess like they brought the TikTok guy into
Speaker 1: Congress and ask them a bazilion questions, and if people
Speaker 1: asking the questions they don't know anything enough about the
Speaker 1: questions that they're asking. I think that there's reason to believe,
Speaker 1: like real reason to believe that TikTok does have does
Speaker 1: is acting in nefarious ways with direction of the Chinese
Speaker 1: Communist Party. I think that is actually true. Also, TikTok
Speaker 1: is the purest algorithm of social medium. Yeah, that's the
Speaker 1: that's the that's the good part. That's the honest part.
Speaker 1: Like it's it's the most market competitive and it is
Speaker 1: the least manipulated in that sense and the virality creation sense.
Speaker 1: So you would think you would think you would think
Speaker 1: um conservatives would be for that, that that that's one
Speaker 1: of the most American things there is. Yeah, and there's
Speaker 1: and there's some that are like my my favorite thought leader,
Speaker 1: George Gilder's very pro whahweh, very pro TikTok. A lot
Speaker 1: of these embattled Chinese companies the challenge. They're kind of
Speaker 1: used as data trojan horses. And you know, that's that's
Speaker 1: the root of the pushback. It's it's not that they're
Speaker 1: doing really well, so they're doing really well to gobble
Speaker 1: up and data store a bunch of shit about I
Speaker 1: don't know, whatever the fuck they might want with it
Speaker 1: depends on who the hell they're looking at. I suppose
Speaker 1: fuck it. I don't give a fuck. Have you seen
Speaker 1: the movie Tetris yet? Jesus Christ, somebody made a movie
Speaker 1: about Tetris. I'm going to give you my log in
Speaker 1: for Apple Plus TV. You gotta watch this shit. I
Speaker 1: need you to answer me one question before I start
Speaker 1: watching this. Why on the fuck do I need to
Speaker 1: watch a movie about Tetris? So so for me, it's different.
Speaker 1: Tetris was my mom and my father's favorite game together
Speaker 1: when they was together. Okay, so that that takes me
Speaker 1: back to a really dope and rerest in peace to
Speaker 1: my mom, shout out to my pops. But that was
Speaker 1: their game. But I don't know if you remember the
Speaker 1: true story of Tetris. Tetris was a game created by
Speaker 1: a Russian designer, and at that time a lot of
Speaker 1: the country was still in ship from Russian designers and
Speaker 1: selling it around the rest of the country around excuse me,
Speaker 1: around the rest of the world, and nobody in Russia
Speaker 1: had any idea. So Tetris was one of those situations
Speaker 1: where the super super you know, enticing game you know,
Speaker 1: got popular, and somebody was trying to get the rights
Speaker 1: to for game Boy to only realize the person who
Speaker 1: was licensing it in the first place never had rights.
Speaker 1: But the way they tell the story in the movie,
Speaker 1: I don't even know if this is true. If this
Speaker 1: story is eighty percent sent true, this is about the
Speaker 1: craziest shit you ever seen somebody go through to make
Speaker 1: a video game. But when I tell you, this movie
Speaker 1: is so fucking dope, like I gotta give you, like
Speaker 1: I'm it's so dope. I'm like, yo, you gotta watch this.
Speaker 1: You have to watch this shit. Like, that's how fucking
Speaker 1: good it is. It's unfucking believable. Yeah, that's pretty because
Speaker 1: that was I mean that this would have been preapse, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is a this USSR. Yeah, so's it's a really
Speaker 1: dope movie. I don't know how true. I mean, I
Speaker 1: always heard the issues around the video game at that time,
Speaker 1: you know, and then growing up, I will hear the
Speaker 1: more I got older, I will hear like more stories.
Speaker 1: But the way they told the story is unbelievable, Like
Speaker 1: they did such an amazing job on the fucking movie
Speaker 1: about a video game, Like it's unbelievable. It's like, it's
Speaker 1: crazy how good this movie is. And fucking Create three
Speaker 1: is not that fucking good. So it's better than the
Speaker 1: Super Mario Brothers movie they made in like ninety two.
Speaker 1: I was way better than with John Leguizamo. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't remember who's that. John Kiama was Luigies and No
Speaker 1: was No, No, No, the best video game movie that
Speaker 1: I remember. Yeah, I kind of liked the first three Fire.
Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't really good. It was just entertaining.
Speaker 1: The Mortal Kombat movie too, that was cool. Van Dam
Speaker 1: was Guyle h Um The Mortal Kombat movies. Tetris is
Speaker 1: better than all in movies. Tetris sounds like a cool
Speaker 1: lass documentary, not like a movie. It's trying to simulate
Speaker 1: the game, like it's not a bunch of just people
Speaker 1: portraying different shaped blocks floating around. Was crazy. It is
Speaker 1: how they work it in. It's little small, oh like
Speaker 1: pieces of information to make it fit as it goes.
Speaker 1: Bro Like, watch when you see this ship, this ship
Speaker 1: is really like, you're gonna hit me and be like, Yo,
Speaker 1: that ship is really fucking good. You've got me convinced
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. Yeah, Creed three, don't watch Creed three. Shout
Speaker 1: out to the Shout out to Jonathan Major, shout out
Speaker 1: to to h Shout out to Jonathan Major, shout out
Speaker 1: to Michael B. Jordan. But Rocky three is way better.
Speaker 1: Creed three is fucking not good. Like people have me pumped.
Speaker 1: That ship is almost I want to say it's trash.
Speaker 1: It's not trash only because like the kid in the film,
Speaker 1: like like Creed's kid and his old lady's kid, they're deaf,
Speaker 1: Like she's like the kid is deaf. So they communicate
Speaker 1: through said language. And I've never seen so much communication
Speaker 1: through side language in the film, and it had like
Speaker 1: this flavor. I thought that was dope that it was
Speaker 1: subtitles or are we just guessing subtitles? But it was rich,
Speaker 1: like if you see the emotion, Like, I thought that
Speaker 1: was really great, but the rest of the story is
Speaker 1: stupid as shit. A motherfucker without a professional fight got
Speaker 1: a shout at the heavyweight title, like thing about Rocky
Speaker 1: and least Rocky had lost fights professionally. Yeah, yeah, and
Speaker 1: Rocky was based off a real guy. They did. That
Speaker 1: was a Netflix I think, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, but like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that shit is bad. A matter of fact, Creed three
Speaker 1: was so not good. I just all right, we're gonna
Speaker 1: end this podcast on that good looking out for tuning
