Let me just you know, put it out 19 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: there in the universe. You didn't need our help for that, though. Man, yeah, 20 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: it sold out. It was like New York pooled up 21 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: because New York always in the comments section when you're 22 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: coming to New York, Sin when you could were just 23 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: born Sin when you coming, I was like, all right, 24 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: if I come out there, buy the tickets early. And 25 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: they did. Now I saw, I saw a bit you 26 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,839 Speaker 1: did when you returned the stage. Man, I know, condolences 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: on your son, you know, but I was very intrigued 28 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: because I was like, how does a comedian approach something right? 29 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: You know, like this? So I have even holding up. 30 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: First of all, this has been first like the scaredest 31 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 1: I've ever been comedically, like normally, like I'm the type 32 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: of comedian that I talked about whatever's going on in 33 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: my life. Now I talk about like on the surface 34 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: stuff like you know, observations and stuff like that, but 35 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: then you know, I always include what I'm going through 36 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: in my life. And so with that, it was like, 37 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: you know, comedy. My son passed August third in the 38 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: car accident for those who don't know, and then uh, 39 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: I went on the road August twenty fifth to Atlanta. 40 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: So I was like, and I needed to come down. 41 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: I needed to you know, keep working and making people 42 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: laugh as part of mine, you know, therapy, and so 43 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: I was like, uh, but I'm scared to do it 44 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: because people saw me lose my son in real time, 45 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: so it's not like you know, you just see me 46 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: and like, man, he lost his son, but we didn't 47 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: know him then, so we can kind of detach from 48 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: that reality. So now I'm scared to bring that material 49 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: out because the crowd is hurting too, so they mourning 50 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: with me. So it was just like, man, so I 51 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: finally did it Gonna Keep Your Distance, which is a 52 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: virtual comedy show that keV on stage does, and it 53 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: went and it went well. I told the audience, look, man, 54 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: I need to talk about this, so y'all need to 55 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: open up. And then they received it. You said yeah 56 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: about the cremation, like you know, how do I know? 57 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: I want to know what? I need to check this 58 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: this dust right? And I thought it was funnier, But 59 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: I was like, am I supposed to laugh? Yes, that's 60 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: the weird part, But there's comedy everywhere. You just got 61 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: to be able to find the sweet spot, I guess, 62 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: to be able to make it relative and like funny 63 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: Marlin Wayne said when he was up here, he was like, 64 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: when you're a comedian, even a funeral, you can find 65 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: some type of and he said that exact same thing. Yeah. 66 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: So it's like, you know, because I'm sitting there and 67 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 1: I'm laughing, you know, I was able to laugh, like, 68 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: you know, the day he passed, I'm laughing, you know, crying, 69 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: you know, I still cry daily, but it's like I 70 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: laugh at stuff every day too, So it's like I 71 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: was like, man, I've never thought, you know, you never 72 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: you never know how you're gonna react yourself until it happens. Yeah. 73 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm because I'm from the country and I'm 74 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: from so we laugh at everything. But I feel like 75 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: sometimes with comedians it's like an obligation to be funny. 76 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: But what if I don't feel like being funny right now? Right? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, 77 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: And there's there's those moments where it was just like, 78 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: I guess it was just in me and I found 79 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: that out going through that. I was just like, man, 80 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: I'm still cracking shows. Yeah, I can't believe it. Like 81 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: at the funeral, I'm doing a set, you know, I 82 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: did fifteen minutes at the funeral, just like, yeah, man, crying, 83 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: and then I would be like, yeah, he was always late. 84 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: He was late to the afterlife too. Like God was like, man, yo, 85 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: I called you twenty minutes ago.

You never know. 88 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: You gotta look good. And I thought you said that 89 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: the crowd gets tight, right, So when crowds get uncomfortable. 90 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,679 Speaker 1: As a comedian, you're used to I guess loosening them up, right, Yeah, yeah, 91 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: so going up there, like I'll cut the crowd out. 92 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: That's the kind of comedian I am, like, if the comedian, 93 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: if the if the crowd is too stiff, I'll cut 94 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: them out, like you know if because like there's certain 95 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: rooms where they'd be like prove it to us, and 96 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: they just sit there arms folded. And then I said, 97 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: somebody bring her boyfriend to a comedy show and he 98 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: was sitting there like yeah the whole time, right in 99 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: the front too.

But with with this type 105 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: of topic. And it's not like I was forcing myself 106 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: to find the material because some comedians do too much 107 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: and they feel like I have to make everything funny 108 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: out of everything. For me, it was just organic. It 109 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: was just like, you know, I'd be looking at my 110 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: son's earn.

Why do you want to be cremated? 129 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: Because we're running out of real estate? That is true, 130 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: So you don't want to It's over crowd It's like 131 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: especially in New York. We drove through Queens. It's all cemetery. 132 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: That's very thoughtful of you. So just because of overcrowding, Yeah, 133 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: because you know, the old bodies, the people that died 134 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: in eighteen sixty nine. You got to get out of there. Yeah, 135 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: ain't nobody coming to visit? You know more, you died 136 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: in eighteen sixty nine, your family moved. But that is too. 137 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: I guess it's more inexpensive too, like as far as 138 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: having to buy apply to land and having to get 139 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: a casket because caskets are expensive too.

And then you're sitting there in one location, like, well, 145 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,239 Speaker 1: if you don't like the location, no more. Your family 146 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: even moved to different states.

I don't really trust 202 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: the Bible because there's too many hands involved in the 203 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: creation of the written texts, you know, King once King 204 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: James put his name on them, Like don't you know 205 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: then take that out.

Um. I was just in 209 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: a wedding, And I was wondering do men hand their 210 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: wedding out in their head from when they're younger, Like, 211 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 1: do y'all be thinking, like when I get married, this 212 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: is how I wanted to be.

I didn't, Like, we think about marriage, 215 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: but we don't think about the wedding. We just be like, yeah, man, 216 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: I just want to find me a good one. You know, 217 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: raise a family. We think about the marriage itself in 218 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: the family, but the wedding day, I forget it. Like, 219 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: give you it's a waste of money in my opinion, Okay, 220 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: Like like, if you're rich and you're balling, sure, it's 221 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: just a little nice it's just a little weekend whatever. 222 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: But when you gotta save up and like y'all trying 223 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: to get your your earnings together, and we gotta save 224 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: up for the wedding.

Your salary is sixty five thousand 226 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: a year each, Maybe that's a good chunk. And what 227 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 1: happened to Daddy's spaying for the wedding. Remember the time, 228 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: Remember that my father lost putting some money.

Yeah. 260 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: You want Last Comics Standing too, right, a couple of seasons. 261 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 1: I was on there for two seasons. But what made 262 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: you do that? Because I've always heard your name? Yeah, 263 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: so what was it? You know? I uh, you know, 264 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: as as comedians. I started doing stand up in two 265 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: thousand and eight, and you know, you get on Last 266 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: Comics Standing, you think your life gonna change. Oh, this 267 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: is NBC, this is it, this is the moment. And 268 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 1: then I did it that first season, Um, I didn't 269 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: advance and I was like, oh, well, I guess that's 270 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: I guessaid that. And then they brought me back because 271 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 1: you know, I think they felt like I got robbed 272 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: on that first season because I had a really good 273 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: set and it was just like but nah, And I 274 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 1: was like man, and I was kind of crushed. That 275 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: was like man, because I knew I delivered. But then 276 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: they brought me back and I was like, man, maybe 277 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 1: my life would change now, and then it didn't. It 278 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: sounds like, all right, what did you expect to happen? 279 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: Because like you know, on NBC, it's on NBC, huge platform, 280 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: millions of people seeing you. So from there you catapult 281 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: that into you know, headlining across the country. So it's like, 282 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: you know, it's a huge step. But when you don't 283 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: advance and then it's just like, you know, you don't 284 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: get all that airtime and the and the NBC execs 285 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: is pushing you in different projects, it's like, all right, 286 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: I don't think people can them. I think it's like 287 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: you gotta it's hard, right, Like, because you can be 288 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: on network television and nobody you don't care, Like I know, 289 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: you had a small role on Car Michael Show. Yeah, 290 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: and I saw Gride you know, on Saturday Live this 291 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: past weekending. He was like, Yom, I might be the 292 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: least famous host to ever host this show. And this 293 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: is a man who had a sitcom on NBC for 294 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: three seasons. HBO Special has been in big movies and everything. Right, 295 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: I don't think people I don't know if people care 296 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: about that. The dynamic has changed because you really don't 297 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: need Uh, there's people on they've been on the show 298 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: for eight seasons. You go to the social media, maybe 299 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: they got fifty k followers or whatever, and people are 300 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: just under the radar. Like if you're black on like 301 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: a CBS sitcom, you're on there for eight nine seasons, 302 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: but it seems like you're not even popping on social media. 303 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: But you know, once the black community gets you, they 304 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: can make you look like a superstar R and so. 305 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: But you're getting you getting good money, You're getting that 306 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: CBS money. But in terms of like celebrity, it's just 307 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: your Boddy can't right, And so for us, you know 308 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: building now, you know, I just built a social media 309 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: platform to where you know, I could I could bring 310 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: people to comedy clubs now. So you know, I've superseded 311 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: the needs for NBC. Brandon. I was still love for sitcom, 312 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: but you know, I put it into people's hand now 313 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: to where I don't need Hollywood to eat, and so 314 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: that's a beautiful place to be in.

Yeah, 329 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: like I didn't. I didn't laugh a lot, but I 330 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: loved it. And it was like a community gathering where 331 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 1: he's interacting with the end, it felt like it felt 332 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: like he wasn't forcing the jokes, he wasn't forcing the comedy. 333 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: It was like you can laugh or you cannot. When 334 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: he when he came out, I feel like the laughter 335 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: reveed up after that. So there was some good, good 336 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: things in there, but it felt very personal, felt like 337 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: a conversation. And you know, there was a moment in 338 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: there that hit me when he said his mom was silent. 339 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: So that hit me personally because I feel like when 340 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: I lost my son, my dad, and my oldest brother, 341 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: they just fell back and I'm just like yo.

Back to Gerald Carmichael, 414 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: he had these silences that were powerful too. And sometimes 415 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: when people are quiet, like you were saying on the phone, 416 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: when they're like you're good. Yeah, But that can be 417 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: a powerful moment. How is it for you on stage 418 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 1: when it's kind of like quiet, I don't like it, right. 419 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: I do not like silence on stage, unless unless it's 420 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: that type of night where I'm just really just like 421 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: sitting on stage and like I know the crowd. It 422 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 1: actually depends if it's my fans to where they know me, 423 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: then I'm more comfortable with like a quiet pause and 424 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: they know I'm thinking about some things. But if it's 425 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: like I'm featuring for somebody, I'm just doing a show 426 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: where I got to I got to keep it going 427 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 1: like you know, boom boom, boom boom.

My goal is to make 435 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: somebody die laughing. And you know, I don't think I 436 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: can get there, but if I can, if I can 437 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: make you spit your drink out choke or just like 438 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: nah man, please or the tears are running. I'm like, yeah, 439 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: stand up getting easy or harder because a lot of 440 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: my stand up friends feel like it's getting harder. I 441 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: don't think it's getting harder. You mean in terms of 442 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: how people react to it. Yeah, because it was like 443 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 1: you know, with the with the live podcast nowadays and 444 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: it was like your people just like they don't feel 445 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: like the stand up. I guess Watcher's viewers of people 446 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: who come to the show are actual stand up kind 447 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: of sourds anymore. Oh yeah, there's that because we like 448 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: listening to you on the you know, on the podcast, 449 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 1: come in and they don't really know the art of 450 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 1: stand up, so they don't really they're not always the 451 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: best audiences. They're just excited, but they're not really getting 452 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: the nuances of the jokes or anything like that. And 453 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: so I can see that. And plus, you know, people 454 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: are more sensitive now and like you know, um, you 455 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 1: got everybody egg shelling it up. So it's like, so 456 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: it's all these things in place. But I feel like 457 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 1: stand up comedy is hot though, like you know, it's popping, 458 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: and I feel like that's a good thing. And then people, 459 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: I just hate that people think it's so easy to do. 460 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: Oh it's not. Yeah, people think they can just go 461 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: up there and be like, Man, I could do that. No, 462 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: it's it's probably one of the most difficult things to 463 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: do on a stage. Yeah, you can perform a song, 464 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 1: you can do a lot of podcast get up there 465 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: and go one on one with that crowd, and it's scary, man, 466 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,400 Speaker 1: And I get nervous.

Your favorite Wu Tang is my 542 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: uh actually my favorite group is the Roots, but Wu 543 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 1: Tang changed my life pretty much. Really huh, just because 544 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: like when Wu Tang hit, I'm forty four, so you know, 545 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: I was born at seventy seven. So I remember when 546 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: hip hop got kind of stacked because I've always leaned 547 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 1: towards East Coast hip hop, and so it got kind 548 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: of staggered around, like the early nineties. When the West 549 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: Coast started dominating. It was like it was good, you know, 550 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: doctor Dre what he was doing and stuff like that, 551 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,399 Speaker 1: but then they were relying too much on like the 552 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: same kind of beats for a while, and I was 553 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: just like, and I know people are gonna be mad 554 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 1: at me in the comment sation ain't gonna first of all, 555 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,959 Speaker 1: whist Coast. But I just got kind of bored. And 556 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: then when Wou Tang hit, I got my boys Carl Larone, 557 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: he was driving and they were listening to the Mysterious 558 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: Chess Box and ODBS versus on. I was like, Yo, 559 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: who the hell is this. It's like, this is Wou 560 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: Tang Clan, I said, who Wu Tang Clan.

And so they brought me back to 575 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: hip hop. And so after that, Illmatic came out and 576 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: I was just like, this is everything. I stole the 577 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:40,239 Speaker 1: Roon's Illmatic CD because Shahm came out.

And I wish he would 593 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: have stayed hidden, hidden, like if we never saw his face, 594 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: but that would have been so dope. And I feel 595 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: like he has the best discography in the Wolf. I 596 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: think he does great songs for women too, because he's 597 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: really good at doing those R and B like passionate songs. 598 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: He's not he's not he's not too cool to be 599 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: vulnerable over a woman on the track.

Like that, I 639 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: felt like there's nothing you skip on that. That was 640 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 1: a moment in time that was special. Oh yeah. When 641 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: that album dropped, it was like I just went to 642 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: New Mexico State bought that album opening day and the 643 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: whole campus was just we was listening to that every day. 644 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: It was just like Yo, this Lauren Hill album were 645 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 1: just like I listened to X Factor every day.

The reason I hate 648 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: that song is because when my mom was going through 649 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: her divorce for my popsy, she used to play that 650 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: song every day.

And 654 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: that was a period when soundtracks were really important to remember, 655 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: when soundtracks were like your favorite album above the Room, Yeah, 656 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: New Jersey Drive and a dope sound Love Jones soundtrack. Oh, 657 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: come on to this day. I looked at that day 658 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: when you went to a woman fire Wait and they 659 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: say it is a phenomenal sing album. Was just me, 660 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: me and you boys in the hood. Yeah, that sound 661 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: before you go to And I want to ask you 662 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 1: this guy, I don't want to go back to you 663 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: go back to it, man, but I know, uh crap 664 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong. A street racer killed him. Yeah so, 665 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: uh so they were racing on Glen Oaks and Burbank, California. 666 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: We lived in Burbank and um so he had just 667 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: left my apartment and then they were going to this 668 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: little this little peak where you can just go and 669 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: look out over the city or whatever. So they were 670 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: they were making a turn. Uh, and so the cars 671 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: were racing. It was two cars racing, might have been three, 672 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: and they just they t boned them and so they 673 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: uh it was three of them that passed away, you know, 674 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 1: his best friend, Jayden and Natalie, So they died on impact. 675 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 1: Thank god. That's that's that really helped me too through 676 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 1: this loss. Was because you know, I looked for the 677 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 1: blessings within the tragedy. It was like, Yo, we could 678 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: have been in a situation where you know, he might 679 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 1: have been vegetative and we had to come to the 680 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: decision to pull the plug. We didn't have to go 681 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: through that, you know, or you know, just any type 682 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 1: of yeah, like suffering like that. They said he died instantly, 683 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 1: so it was no, you know, he never knew what 684 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: hit him. I was like, oh, thank god. And so 685 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: you know, there wasn't a murder, like they weren't murdered. 686 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: So that helps me with anger issues, even though you know, 687 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,800 Speaker 1: still like, man, what were you doing? But I know 688 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: those kids didn't intend to kill people when they left 689 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,399 Speaker 1: the house at night. They they did dumb shit, yes, 690 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: but I can't hold that anger towards them because you know, 691 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: it won't serve me. How could you? So you forgive them? 692 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:52,399 Speaker 1: Basically it's not necessarily forgiveness, but it's like, um, I'm 693 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: not really like I saw one of them in court 694 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 1: and I was just like I looked and I was 695 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: just dead behind the eyes towards I was a slack. 696 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: Was emotional to be in court because it feels so 697 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: business like and final and real. So I was just like, 698 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: ain't I ain't gonna keep coming back to court, you know. 699 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: But when I saw him, I was just like, that's 700 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 1: that's one of them, and I was just like I 701 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: didn't get angry though it wasn't like you know, because 702 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: deep down I know it was an accident. They were dummies, 703 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 1: but you know, because then I think about those families 704 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: that had to deal with like homicide to where their 705 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: kids were murdered and then you got to deal with 706 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 1: that anger or even like suicide. You know, I'm thankful 707 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: that it wasn't that. And another blessing is me and 708 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: my son were good. Yeah, everybody says with a great dad, yeah, 709 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: you know, we was good. Like you know, it was 710 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: just like we had a great relationship, so there was 711 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 1: no regret or no like man maybe if you know, 712 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: there was no underlying beef that we had. It was 713 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: just a good vibe. So with that, like, you know, 714 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: if I had to live with the weight of man, 715 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: I wish I would have told them I'd be destroyed. 716 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: Were they apologetic in or did anybody ever reach out? 717 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 1: Did they up? I haven't heard from the family of 718 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 1: the of the other drivers, And like, you know, they 719 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 1: went in there because you know, they're gonna they're gonna 720 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: fight for their kids, lives, family, They're gonna be in 721 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 1: there like then they probably gonna try to slander anybody 722 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: up that they can. But you know, the guy I saw, 723 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: he just looked kind of you know, regular kind of down, 724 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: but not you know, so it was kind of hard 725 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: to gauge. But I'm sure they feel I would hope 726 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 1: they feel terrible. I would hope, you know, but you 727 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: never know, And I hope, you know, lessons will learn. 728 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,280 Speaker 1: And you know, I feel bad for their family because 729 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: you know, their lives were changed, but at least they 730 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 1: still have their sons, you know. But we can't say 731 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 1: the same and shout out to you know, Jayden's family 732 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: and Natalie's family. But it's hard to feel like um, 733 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,479 Speaker 1: it's hard to not feel like your your son got robbed. 734 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I feel that all the time. Because he 735 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 1: was just getting started twenty one. He was twenty one. Um, 736 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,879 Speaker 1: he was into music, so his rap so we're getting better, 737 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 1: you know. Because he would always be like, because he 738 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 1: knows that, I'm very much into you know, lyricism and like, 739 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,359 Speaker 1: so you know the stuff he was listening to. I'll 740 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 1: be like, man, I ain't really with this, like what like, well, 741 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,399 Speaker 1: I don't want to put it out then you ain't 742 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: feeling me. But like but like you know, people aren't lyrical, 743 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: but they have great music, but it might not be lyrical. Right. 744 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 1: So it was just like, all right, this is his 745 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: thing because you know he does he does. He did 746 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: like Kendrick and Cole and like, you know, Drake the 747 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 1: Three I call him to Three Kings right now, absolutely, 748 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 1: so he did like that. So that's something we could 749 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,959 Speaker 1: listen to together. We listen to Good Kid Man City 750 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: and we're both rapping with it. But then the other 751 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 1: cast that he would listen to, he would tell me 752 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 1: about him. I was like, okay, okay, we shot an 753 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: episode for all Death like old heads versus Young Heads, 754 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: and I brought mob deep to the table. He brought 755 00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: money bag yo, right, and so that's yeah. And I 756 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 1: was listening to money back for the first time through him, 757 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: and I was just like, yo, it's not bad. Classic 758 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 1: album too. That hit him with a couple of not 759 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 1: hit him with that, and he was just like, why 760 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 1: are you like this so much? I was like, man, 761 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 1: listen to what they're saying. Like when they came out 762 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: with this, this and the third. I feel like, you know, 763 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,240 Speaker 1: the Infamous is in my top five all time? Oh absolutely. 764 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 1: I saw a revote TV posted something yesterday about what 765 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: album from the nineties defined your nineties? Yeah, and it 766 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 1: was like Infamous, Ready to Die, Amatic, you know what 767 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,840 Speaker 1: else was up there? But I was like, it's Infamous 768 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 1: for me. Actually, Infamous is top three, my top three 769 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 1: albums of all time hip hop. I'm giving the real 770 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 1: Nances Angela.
