Ever 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:19.600 before daughter and little Scrappy's daughter went on Instagram and said, 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:22.280 don't tag me around and talk to me about that 0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:25.600 lady talking about Bam Bam did a post said looking 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:28.840 like that lady with the hard eyes emoji, so they 0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:31.560 would thrown shade at each other and everybody just started commenting, 0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:32.200 what you guys think. 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:34.800 I think just sounded like some love and hip hop storylines. 0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:35.880 It was like a storyline. 0:07:36.000 --> 0:07:37.960 I don't want to believe that they would bring the 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:41.720 kids into it, even though you know, Scrap's oldest daughter 0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:44.880 is eighteen. Now I would hope that they're not doing 0:07:44.880 --> 0:07:48.640 it for that, but I don't think it's cool to 0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:52.360 start talking about kids. And now because you are getting 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:53.440 a divorce, you want to be. 0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:54.880 Like I was holding your secret. 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.160 Your daughter was telling me that you was whooping her ass, 0:07:57.200 --> 0:07:59.800 Like don't hold on to that, Like still hold on 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:01.040 to that, don't put it out now. 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:04.600 So I don't want to see it.

It sounds like because you said it's the. 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:15.080 Devil, I ain't meaning like I ain't gonna cap though, 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:16.400 Like I ain't trying to get all deep. This is 0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:19.560 the first woman I never cheated on, though, I feel 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:20.280 like I found my. 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:21.960 Person that's gonna be making good. 0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:26.000 Way how long I've been married for three years. I 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.920 never felt this way about a female before. Before that, 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.040 I was what you said, knock this shit down. 0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:35.400 I mean, you're not against a connection or relationship. I 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:37.360 think he's just saying like you don't want to legally 0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:38.959 be married and like deal with all. 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.559 I just feel like like putting stuff on paper and 0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.600 putting like the court in your business is a bit 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.360 too much from like a personal relationship. That's just how 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:50.880 I personally feel, because you know, something go wrong. I 0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:53.199 just feel like this is not their business, like the state. 0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:57.320 And that's just how I feel personally. But I'm gonna 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:00.439 be honest. Man, every married couple I know they not 0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:03.000 they like not happy. You. You probably one of the 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.480 first that didn't tell you because they hang around your time. 0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:07.640 Actually you probably wanted the first. Like how that it's 0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:10.800 a small percentage they really say like they happy or 0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:13.559 what not. On the real my parents be married. 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.520 The man they're still married, but they need a TV 0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:19.480 show if y'all hear the conversations. 0:09:20.520 --> 0:09:22.000 Man, I just got. 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:25.240 Hired at Warner Records, so Chopper is the main artist there, 0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:27.640 and I've been paying attention to him. My first gig 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:31.959 was the Memphis Uh and I saw Mama Chop she lit. 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:35.079 By the way, Yes, I met your dad and I 0:09:35.160 --> 0:09:37.120 didn't know that they both managed you. So your dad's 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:40.760 your role manager, your mom's your manager. That's dope. That's 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:42.199 like lit though, But I know it's a lot of 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:44.720 communication that has to go on in the house. Yeah, 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:46.719 so they probably the only ones that can deal with 0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:47.400 you pretty much. 0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:50.719 In the beginning, I wasn't couldn't nobody to deal with. 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:54.680 I used to snap on people because people. But I'm 0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:58.600 way more like settle and come now. So yeah, they 0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:01.240 pretty much they deal with me. But I'm more manageable 0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:02.200 now for sure. 0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:04.880 But to bring it back to marriage, you have an example. 0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:08.559 They lasting, but you know it's a difference from like 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:15.360 last thing and like last thing and like being happy 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:17.000 with if that makes sense. 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.520 Do you believe that you know you could you can't 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:22.400 be happy with somebody for x amount of time, but 0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:24.719 then your energy just goes a different way and it's like, 0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:28.360 you know what, Yeah we had a great two, three, five, 0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:29.680 six years, but my. 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.400 Energy is changing. Your energy is changing, and now it's 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:33.400 time to move on to the next. 0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:35.480 I mean, it just it just depends on how much 0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:38.240 the person evolve. Like I'm the type of person there's 0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:40.120 something about look in the mirror and I see your flow. 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:43.559 It's something I'm trying to better about myself. And I 0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:46.760 had a problem with with being in in relationships with 0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:50.400 people that's not the same, that's not you know, comfortable 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:54.240 with evolving. It's scared of change. So I've always outgrew 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:56.760 the person I was, you know, being with or whatnot. 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.959 And like the course of a year. Yeah, I'm never 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.040 had a relationship that went longer than a year. So 0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:06.120 and it's just because I always want to grow and 0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:08.600 I always want to fix myself and maybe God grooming 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:11.199 me to meet someone that I could say, ah, they'm 0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:14.559 my person, but still, you know, still then I just 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:17.319 feel like it ain't temporary in life, you know what 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:19.520 I'm saying. I feel like we meet people, you know, 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:22.400 and this either we learned something from him, and sometimes 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:24.160 I feel like, you know, it's not for us to 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:27.280 just take a heat and like make him like a property. 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:30.240 And I always go like to this saying it was 0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:32.760 his dude, he put, I can't remember who said it. 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:35.160 I don't mean to take too much time on the subject, 0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:38.679 but it was like it was like one day he'd 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:42.640 seen this butterfly and it was like a story, and 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:45.079 he's seen a butterfly and it was so beautiful, like 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:47.240 the most the most beautiful butterfly. 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:47.560 He ever seen. 0:11:48.200 --> 0:11:50.160 And he said he was chasing it, trying to catch 0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:53.079 it to keep it to himself, and as he was 0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:56.439 chasing it, he jumped to his neighbor fence, still chasing 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.640 out there. His neighbor had a garden full of beautiful flowers, 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:02.320 so he was stumping on the flowers. He fucked up 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:04.439 all the flowers trying to get it, and when he 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:08.960 finally got the butterfly, he killed it. So not only 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:11.120 did he kill the butterfly, but he fucked up like 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:14.640 his neighbor was guarding it. So he messed up there 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:17.760 and he messed up the world around him. Yeah, so 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:21.120 I kind of feel like that's how it is with relationships. 0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:23.840 I feel like we get with people to learn something 0:12:23.880 --> 0:12:30.160 from them and just carry on the life experience more 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:34.920 so than just like making a person that experience, if 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:38.079 that makes sense. But that's how that's just that's how 0:12:38.160 --> 0:12:40.440 I feel. And other people different though, and other people 0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:43.679 have different journeys. And that's why that's why the perspectives 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:47.000 is so beautiful and it's artistic to me because the 0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:49.400 same way you have you something with marriage could be 0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:52.240 the same way I view something. And what works for 0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:54.120 him may not work for me. And I feel like 0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:58.000 that's the beauty of like humanity. And I like that 0:12:58.160 --> 0:12:59.559 story too. That was a dope story. 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:01.599 All right, let's take a quick commercial, but when we 0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:04.560 come back, we can get all in NL choppers business 0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:05.040 right here. 0:13:04.960 --> 0:13:08.560 On ship Show podcast found on paper tomorrow just because 0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:09.160 of what I'm sitting on. 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:13.079 Shut up, We'll be right back with more of The 0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:21.559 Baller Alert Show.
