They're not even in numerical order yet. 12 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: We're just naming songs right now that are going to 13 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 1: go eventually that will wind up on that top fifty list. 14 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: They don't like that shit.

They tell me, you butter half some of 16 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: this on that you butter half some of that. But 17 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: they need what people need to realize, man, when you 18 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: start talking about music, it's very very subjective, man, and 19 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: it's all about your opinion. You can go out and 20 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: make your own list. You feel what I'm saying. I'm 21 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: pretty sure as we get closer to the top, we 22 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: have a lot of stuff that's the same, but some 23 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: stuff like I'm pretty sure because you send me your 24 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: list to day and usually me and you are pretty close. 25 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: I was like, damn, me and Soren got a couple 26 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 1: of them. We have a couple that are close, and 27 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: I guess we should probably just go ahead and run 28 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 1: throughout our list. You wanna run through mine first, you 29 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: want to do yours first, you should go first. Still, Okay, again, 30 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: these are not a numerical order. They are not a 31 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: numerical orders. So I don't want to hear nobody on 32 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: Instagram telling me, hey man, how you got this or 33 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,479 Speaker 1: that that's a bullshit ass list. But this is what 34 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: I got. I got we come strapped quick as the 35 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 1: name above the Law, Living like Hustler's se Bow, which 36 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: the gas Chamber. 37 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 4: That's a masterpiece. 38 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: Right then Tupac Me Against the World, fifty cent get 39 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: Rich doc Trying the Truth by Benny Siegel, Banging on Wax. 40 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: I had to go back on that one. Banging on Wax. 41 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: I had to revisit the album Brother Link, Season of 42 00:01:55,160 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: the Sickness and Easy Eat it's on one eighty seven killer. Yeah. 43 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 5: I got a lot of those. Some of those I 44 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 5: don't have. But that's that's pretty thorough right there. 45 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. I want to go back to something though, because 46 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: we always had these debates on which should be considered 47 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: against the Rap. As you know, I've been wanting to 48 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: put Tupac's Me Against the World on there. To me, 49 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: it's his best album. It's even better than All Eyes 50 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: on Me, something I normally get killed in the comments 51 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: for that. But I think Me Against the World was 52 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: a phenomenal album and it definitely was a gangst the 53 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: rap album. To me, it was definitely some gangster stuff. 54 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 5: It's definitely my, in my opinion, pop's best album. I 55 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 5: think it's the most introspective and when you look at 56 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 5: it too. 57 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 4: To me, it reminds me. 58 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 5: In a lot of ways of like a Scarface album 59 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 5: and stealing with a lot of paranoia and doubt, frustration, impression, anxiety. 60 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 5: And that's of course because he was going through his 61 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 5: legal situation at the time and was behind bars, so 62 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 5: or knowing he was about to be behind bars for it. 63 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 5: So it's a lot of angst in the album, and 64 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 5: I think it's a lot of introspection. It's brilliant, man, 65 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 5: It's a brilliant album. 66 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think one of my favorite joints on that 67 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: was different around the corner. It was just like a 68 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: lot of pair of noise on there and just you know, 69 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: just that that last verse, he just killed it. I 70 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: was raising the city shit niggas, drinking liquor out my 71 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: mama's titties and smoking weed was everyday thing in my household, 72 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: and drinking liquor to you out cold? Yeah you fuck 73 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: with that ape. 74 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 75 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: I thought that was one of his coldest albums, man, 76 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: And I thought about man would get rich Dyke trying. 77 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: I think that was like fifty cent Man. He just 78 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: knocked out the park with his debut. 79 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 4: I got one. I got that one A little higher 80 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 4: in the. 81 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: List, yeah, and I had a higher initially, bro, But 82 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: it's just so much great stuff in the top twenty. 83 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: I didn't really see nothing worth. It was a lot 84 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: of stuff the world was. But again, it's just my opinion, 85 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It may wind up steal 86 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: up there. You know, it may very well wind up 87 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: steal up there. I know. Eight.

But you definitely develop a 512 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: different palette when you start getting some money man for 513 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: different shit. And I'm gonna tell you this my thing 514 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: for a minute. I went through my phase, my phase 515 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 1: with the cars SUVs. Remember when they first started coming 516 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: out with the Lincolns and all that and the Navigators. 517 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: I was in those, man.

And 536 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 2: the worst part about the music shit though, is that 537 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 2: there are so many lies being told about these deals 538 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: and different things like that.

Then? 551 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: Man, I guess that's just to make a motherfucker look thing. 552 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: But he never came out of his mouth and said 553 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: that that was all the machine, the machine and Black 554 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: Wall Street, and so theoretically his deal was worth one 555 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: point five minutes. 556 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 4: That's the thing. 557 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 5: Still they say the deal is one point five but that's. 558 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 4: If you hit escalators. You sell certain things, you gotta. 559 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: Do certain things, and you gotta put the album. And 560 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: it's just like with the podcast ship like I hear 561 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: motherfucker's talk, but not that I'm in nobody else's business. 562 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: I hope these brothers out here getting every dime they can, 563 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: like shout out to everybody out there getting that money. 564 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: Salute to y'all. I don't have a hating bone in 565 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: my body, but it puts people in a bad position 566 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: when they hear these overinflated deals. First of all, if 567 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: someone comes to give me thirty five million dollars, right, 568 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 1: that's a lot of responsibility. Right, They're not going to 569 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: just give me thirty five million. I may get a 570 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: piece of it when upon signing, I may get another 571 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: piece after the first season airs. There are too many 572 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 1: there are too many variables. It's a lot of shit 573 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: that can happen between somebody give me thirty five million 574 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: and I go out there and getting a car accident. 575 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 1: I ain't hear no more. It's money gone. You ain't 576 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: getting that money back. No, you're not getting it back. 577 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,239 Speaker 1: So a lot of this stuff is really overinflated, or 578 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: it might be spread up, you know, it's usually split 579 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: up the seas. 580 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 5: Like people talk about these NFL, NBA, even baseball, even 581 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 5: though I don't really follow baseball. It's like when the 582 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 5: dude signs a two hundred MILLI and dollar contract, they 583 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 5: don't give him. 584 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 4: A check for two hundred million. That's not four or 585 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 4: five years. And it's all these claus. 586 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: A lot of little clauses. If you go out playing 587 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,479 Speaker 1: basketball the same like the thing is about the NFL 588 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: in particular, if you go out there, if you sign 589 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: the contract and you go out the next day, you 590 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: play with your son in the yard and you slip 591 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: on the mother, it might avoid your shit. You might 592 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: not get the rest of that money though. 593 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 5: It's all in the language of the contract. That's the 594 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 5: important part of it. 595 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: You may not get that money. And you know what, 596 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: podcasts and everything else. I tell people all the time, 597 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: But Joe Rogan got this. I also say, yeah, Joe 598 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: Rogan show is very valuable as well. He has a 599 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: lot of listeners on all platforms. See some podcasts do 600 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,479 Speaker 1: good on YouTube, but they don't do shitt in audio. 601 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: Some podcasts do well on both. And he's in that 602 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: rare spectrum to where you know, on YouTube and thing 603 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: and the police believe Spotify got all that shit. You know, 604 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan ain't uploading else to YouTube. They gave him 605 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: all that money they got, that's. 606 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 3: All they shit now, Yeah, definitely. 607 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: That's all they shipping now. I think people really got 608 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: a twist. And people would sit up there and argue 609 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: with you and then would tell you the business that 610 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: we participated in it. We actual participants in you just 611 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: hating because they got the bag. Why would I care? 612 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: You know, it don't hurt me neither one. I love 613 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: seeing people get money, man, especially in the same lane. 614 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: I mean because that shoot and shit, yeah we're gonna 615 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: be able to get it.

But man, no, like that is just too 617 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: much stuff that can happen, man, And I think that's 618 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: the biggest thing that hurts kids in the community because 619 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: our salt glasses go through that shit and people thinking 620 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: he had money that he didn't have and he had money, 621 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: but then people forget too. You got to go do 622 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: your album off that shit. 623 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a lot of people tend to take. 624 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 3: You know, people really probably don't. 625 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 2: Give a fuck, man, And not too many people are 626 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 2: familiar or educated with contracts and what you know, as 627 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 2: far as recoupment and all other shit and what this 628 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 2: is paid for.
