16
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 1: got an alert. Charlomagne sent us something that I was like,

00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: what this is so lit? So on Apple Podcasts and

18
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: everybody's like, where do I find a podcast? Where do

19
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: I find a podcast? Apple podcast is an app that

20
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: comes on your iPhone. I don't know about androids, but

21
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 1: on iPhone you have the podcast app. It's there, it's free.

22
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: Just open it and search the ladies with Lorna the Roses.

23
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: What I keep telling people, but on that app, we

24
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 1: made a list today.

25
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 2: Yay do ah, I ain't girlways trying.

26
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: Now I see how like the rap girls feel when

27
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: you get like something on the Billboard chart, like you

28
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Top fifteen, top twenty, top ten,

29
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: top two. So right now, I'm ranked number fourteen on

30
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: Apple Podcasts Society and Culture List podcast list, and this

31
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: is a list that like ranks. You know, the podcasts

32
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: are making some noise when it comes to society and culture.

33
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: I'm number fourteen. I was number fifteen. Actually when he

34
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: posted it on his Instagram. I was at BT and

35
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: I picked up my phone. I was like, oh shoot,

36
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: this is so lit, and then I went to go

37
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: see it myself because I want to post it, and

38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: I was number fourteen, so I moved up one slot already,

39
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: you know, the girl is outside, and then I'll start

40
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: scrolling and looking and I'm looking at like who else

41
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: is on the list, Like who are my peers, y'all?

42
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: When I tell y'all almost died, Oprah was on the list, y'all,

43
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: Like this is insane. So thank you guys so much

44
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 1: for being here, for downloading the podcast. Please continue to

45
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: tell your friends about it, because I want everybody to

46
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: know that if you're looking for a great morning drive,

47
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like just bite size good information.

48
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: It's right here baby, period. But right now we're taking

49
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: y'all to court. So the first thing I wanted to

50
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: talk about was Drake. You guys know that Drake has

51
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: been going back and forth with Universal Music Group over

52
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: the song not Like Us, even though he's positioning it

53
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: and claiming that it's not specifically about the song, that

54
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: it's more so about the fact that his label did

55
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: not protect him and that they allowed another artist on

56
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: the label speaking of Kendrick Lamar to drop out like Us,

57
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: which Drake and team say is a very defamatory song.

58
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: It's dangerous and there's no way that this should have

59
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: been supported. So now he is suing. Okay, the lawsuit,

60
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of back and forth, but more recently,

61
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: the Universal Music Group side of things said, you know what, judge,

62
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 1: this all is bs, Drake don't really he doesn't honestly

63
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: think that we did half of the stuff that he's claiming.

64
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: He's claiming that they work with bots to make not

65
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 1: Like Us a bigger song than it was. He's claiming

66
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: that they, you know, paid third party bloggers to talk

67
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: about it that they paid radio like just a ton

68
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: of different things right that he has claimed over some time.

69
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: He's claiming everything, but the song is a bop and baby.

70
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 2: The song is a bop. Okay, he's claiming everything, but

71
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: what the truth is for real? For real? What Drake

72
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: did was kind of a smart business play.

73
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: He filed a motion basically asking to be able to discover,

74
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: like to look inside of universal music groups, you know,

75
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: all of their internal things and figure out if what

76
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: he thinks is happening is really happening, or at least

77
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: enough to get enough evidence to then go back to

78
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: a judge and say, hey, here's what we have and

79
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: never moving forward with a lawsuit. A lot of times

80
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: and defamation people will tell you, like, defamation is one

81
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: of the hardest things to prove because not only do

82
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: you have to prove that the person in their attent

83
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: was the ffamminatory and that they meant to harm you

84
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: to make it where you can't get money, to make

85
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: it where you can be harmed about what they're saying

86
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: or what they're throwing on you, but also too, you

87
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: have to really be able to prove loss, like really

88
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: be able to prove it almost been like, you really

89
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 1: have to be able to prove this. So a lot

90
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: of times people go right in with the lawsuit, and

91
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 1: normally that's because they have the evidence, they understand, you know,

92
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: where they're standing legally and what they're going to lean

93
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: in on. And what Drake did was, you know, he's like, Okay,

94
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: here's what I think is happening. Here's my long laundry

95
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 1: list of things that I think is happening. But I

96
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: want to go in and do I want to poke

97
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: around a little bit because I need to figure out,

98
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: like if I'm shooting, who's my target? Who's my target?

99
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: I thought that was actually pretty smart. I also thought

100
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 1: that this was smart too, because if I'm Drake, and

101
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: you know, the conversation around us was that Drake, you know,

102
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: was negotiating, you know, renegotiating with the label and trying

103
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: to do all these things. If I'm doing that and

104
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: I feel like my label isn't you know what I mean,

105
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: giving me full transparency on some stuff the best way

106
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: to get transparency about the stuff that I want, but

107
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: also about me and how I impactful I am at

108
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: this label in my numbers and all of that stuff

109
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: is to see what you're doing across the room, to

110
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: try and control my situation, to back me into a corner.

111
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: And in discovery you get all of that. And there

112
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: was a conversation that had come up in these legal

113
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: filings about what Drake was actually requesting. You know, it's

114
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 1: like emails and phone logs and all that stuff. But

115
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: also more recently, some of the things that he had

116
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: been his team, his legal team had been requesting was

117
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: legal documents including uh, you know, legal documents and agreements

118
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: and things contracts in relation to Kendrick Lamar. Now, there

119
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: was a pre trial conference that happened and Judge Janette

120
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: vargas Is actually ruled that Universal Music Groups request to

121
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 1: stay the Discovery. So basically they were like, hold up, wait, Discovery,

122
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: why we gotta do all that. It's gonna cost us money,

123
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: it's gonna cost us time. It makes no sense, Like

124
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: we're a huge corporation. Why do we have to do

125
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 1: all of this?

126
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 2: Makes it?

127
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: Their whole thing is is Drake's really upset because he

128
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 1: lost a rat battle.

129
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: And as a label, that is not our fault.

130
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: We do our jobs, we promote our audists, we do

131
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: what we do but just because you lost and you're upset,

132
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: We're sorry, Prima Donna. There's nothing we could do about that.

133
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: But today Drake actually made some pretty good leeway today

134
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: a judge said, and oh yeah, and I want to

135
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: mention Universal Music Group did act for this, like when

136
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 1: they said all that, they said, okay, And because of

137
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: all that, we want this motion to be dismissed. We

138
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: don't even want to have to deal with the case

139
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: at all. And that is still going to be a

140
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: dressed in corporate we'll get there. But back to what

141
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: happened today. So today a judge said, I'm gonna deny

142
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: Universal Music Groups requests the state of discovery process and

143
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: allowed Drake to proceed with requesting access to documents, including

144
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar's contracts with the label.

145
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 2: This is a huge win.

146
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: For Drake because if what Drake is claiming, you know

147
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: what I mean, like all of these allegations he's been throwing,

148
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: if there's anything to it that he can find, I

149
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean I think that being able to

150
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: go on the inside and see conversations and things like that,

151
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: that's the that's the best way to prove it. Now,

152
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: will say that one of the reporters that was in

153
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: the courtroom. It's a Twitter account that I follow. It

154
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: is called Inner City Press. They actually reported that Drake's

155
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: team had, you know, had a back and forth with

156
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: UMG and that Drake's team decided that they were going

157
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 1: to no longer move forward with the accusation that UMG

158
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: paid bots like these random bots to like, you know,

159
00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: hyping up the song online and any different places. And

160
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: they said that they did that because that was just

161
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: very incremental in their lawsuit. I think their biggest thing

162
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: that they're focusing on or is what was said using

163
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: the word pedophile on these big stages and then Universal

164
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: putting money behind allegedly according to Drake, putting money behind

165
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: you know, all of this, like all of this, Okay,

166
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: let's let's back big bag Drake down into a corner

167
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: and use our big, powerful machine to do it.

168
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 2: That's what they want to focus on now.

169
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: I thought that that was interesting because normally when you

170
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: have a case like this where there are multiple different

171
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: claims or even if it's like so this is civil, right,

172
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: but even if it's criminal, if I'm an attorney for

173
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: the prosecutor, right, So that's the side that's trying to

174
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: get you like I'm trying to sit you down. If

175
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: I'm a prosecutor, I'm not bringing up charges that I

176
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: don't think can sustain. I'm not gonna waste my time

177
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: because if a jury or whoever sees you know that

178
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: I'm a llegend certain things and I want certain charges

179
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: and they don't stick. It starts making everything seem everything

180
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 1: else seems a little muddy. I thought that this was

181
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: interesting for them to back up off of the bot thing,

182
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,559
Speaker 1: and they made it seem very small and very incremental,

183
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: but to me, it wasn't. To me, it said to

184
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: me that I don't know if Drake's team really had

185
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: enough or thought that they would have enough, or thought

186
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: that it was strong enough to be able to move

187
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: forward with this whole bod thing. So them backing away

188
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: from that, I thought was like a little telltale sign

189
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: of like, Okay, so here's what they think is strong

190
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: and that they can prove, and here's what they're like.

191
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: M that was cute, and we mentioned it, and maybe

192
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: it is a thing, but we're not wasting our time

193
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: over there.

194
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,679
Speaker 2: Now. What I think that this means is I think that.

195
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: This means that the judge is looking at this from

196
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: a perspective of like, what could it hurt if I

197
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 1: allow it now? I don't care you know how much money,

198
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: how much time it'll cost you. If we can do

199
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: this now and he can find what he's looking for

200
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: or not, we don't even got to do all the

201
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: other stuff. We literally can iron it out. Maybe a

202
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: subtle maent can happen, whatever the case may. That's how

203
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: I think a judge's looking at it now. If I'm

204
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 1: a universal music group, I'm sure that they're going to

205
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: stand on we have nothing to hide. But I think

206
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: it just gets a little tricky when people are going

207
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: into like contract negotiations and emails and phone conversations, because

208
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: you got to think about how big a record label is, right.

209
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 2: You can't if I'm the.

210
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: Head of a record label, I can't guarantee that every

211
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: single employee in my record label is doing what they

212
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: supposed to be doing by the book, how they supposed

213
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: to be doing it. A lot of times because there's

214
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: a lot of people involved, there's a lot of artists,

215
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: there's a lot of money being you know what I mean,

216
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: moved around, and you know, songs dropping. You're just doing

217
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: your job to get your job done for the overall accomplishment.

218
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: And if I'm exact at universal, I can't. I don't

219
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: even had a time to worry about certain day to

220
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: day things. I just gotta look at the high level,

221
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: and the high level of this is it's like, Okay,

222
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: the song is charting, Okay, the song is moving on.

223
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 2: TikTok, how we got there.

224
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 1: I'm just giving, I'm in good faith believing that my

225
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, my employees are doing what

226
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 1: they need to do. One misstep here, right, you have

227
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 1: thirty employees, if about three of them, maybe even five,

228
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: texting the wrong way about some things, exchanging money in

229
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 1: the way that they might even not have known was

230
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: not cool to do to get things placed, or whatever

231
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: the case may be, in the vein of just trying

232
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: to get the job done, even if it was innocent.

233
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: Do y'all know how that will look in Drake's favor? Now,

234
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna hold y'all. I don't think that this

235
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: is going. I don't think this is going like you

236
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: know what I mean, get him out of the not

237
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: like us territory of like Okay, now, some people look

238
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: at you different.

239
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 2: I really don't think that it will.

240
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: I know that people are trying to make it like, Okay,

241
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: he's a martyr, he's sticking up for people that are

242
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: behind these labels and blah blah blah.

243
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 2: But like, at the end of the.

244
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: Day, Drake is still going to be Drake. No, Kia

245
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 1: is going crazy right now, give me a hug. It's

246
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: going crazy right now. Drake will always be able to

247
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 1: Drake if he loses this hole back and forth and

248
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: there's nothing found, and you know what I mean, he

249
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: just has to let it go. It makes him look

250
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 1: like a cry baby if this goes nowhere, because it's like,

251
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: yoll you did all of that.

252
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 2: I mean, this is how I feel, y'all. Let me

253
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 2: know how y'all feel.

254
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: Tweet me at Lauren the Roads that instag at Laura

255
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 1: la Rosa young thug. Y'all, remember on the last episode

256
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,559
Speaker 1: we talked about Young Scooter. We talked about that nine

257
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: one one call, and there's a lot of things that

258
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: were happening with Young Scooter, who was the rapper that

259
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: passed away in Atlanta while fleeing from police. Now there

260
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: was a whole nother issue happening at the same time.

261
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: With Young Scooter because Young Thug got on Twitter. He

262
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 1: tweeted that Young Scooter autops he had came out and

263
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 1: that he was shot. Young Thug also tweeted out a

264
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: woman who works in the DA's office and said that

265
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 1: basically she was like the biggest liar in the DA's

266
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: office and.

267
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 2: This must I think.

268
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 1: I think Young Thug's whole point was like, there's some

269
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: corruption here, but the way he went about it is

270
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: not faring well for him. He did end up having

271
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: to delete the tweet, especially because the Faulton County Medical

272
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: Examiner's Office came out and again stood on business with

273
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: what their autops he really was, stating that rapper Young

274
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: Scooter passed away because of a leg injury while trying.

275
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 2: To get away from police.

276
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 1: But now prosecutors with the Fulton County District Attorney's Office,

277
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,959
Speaker 1: they're like not happy about Young Thug's postings. They filed

278
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 1: a motion to actually revoke his probation. Now here's what

279
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: they say in the document. They say, since sentencing, the

280
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 1: defendant has engaged in conduct that threatens the safety of

281
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 1: witnesses and prosecutors, compromises ongoing legal proceedings, and warrants immediate

282
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: revoking of his probation. The motion continues to say that

283
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: the integrity of this court and the safety of those

284
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: involved in the prosecution are at stake. So you guys

285
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: know that he because he was going through himself with

286
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: you know, the DA's offices and all that. If I

287
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 1: were stuff, I wouldn't be tweeting a dang thing. I'll

288
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: put it in a group chat. You're not gonna get

289
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: me publicly speaking at all. Nothing that goes against some court,

290
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: no judge. If y'all have not learned anything at this

291
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: point from watching all these cases or anything you might

292
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: be involved in yourself, the court is all about like

293
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: empathy and respect for the court. But baby, they don't play.

294
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: They don't farewell with disrespect at all, Like not at all.

295
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: What they're referring to in this when they say that,

296
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: you know, the prosecutors and people that were put at

297
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: stake is a tweet I want to read you guys,

298
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: actual tweet from the He posted a photo of the woman.

299
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: Her name is Marissa Vera Rito. So this woman this

300
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: week because you know, it's so much going on in

301
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: the court, so at this same week, there's the whole

302
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: court process happening for the seven men who were arrested

303
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. And apparently these men you know, allegedly were

304
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: somewhat tied to four PF and they remember there have

305
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: been those reports of this whole like arrest warrant that

306
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: was supposed to come down for a little baby. I

307
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: am told that that is still coming. I am not

308
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: told that that is not something that is not going

309
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: to happen. And I did see reports this week of

310
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: you know what I've already known. But she took the

311
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: stand as a part of a preliminary hearing to determine

Speaker 1: depths of those two thirteen year old oo and Atlanta

314
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,960

00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: that this is happening, Thug posts her photo and says

316
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: that she is the biggest liar in the DA office.

317
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:14,280
