6
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: Can I get an old man Republican roundball rap take off?

7
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 1: After listening to the Clips song that y'all just sent,

8
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 1: I just think only old people should be allowed to rap.

9
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: Bro It's it's been the young man's It's been the

10
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: young man's shit the entire time rap's been around. But

11
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 1: I every time these old motherfuckers drop anything, I love

12
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: it so much and it and it has so little

13
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: in common with what young rappers are putting out. It

14
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: feels like a different thing to me. And I'm not

15
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: that I'm not as interested in it, but that clip

16
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: song was like John and I were just listening to

17
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 1: it together, making faces at each other, like it just

18
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 1: makes me so happy to hear people make music like that,

19
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: and it feels like it's middle aged ask.

20
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:06,680
Speaker 2: People, yeah go ahead, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. I love

21
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 2: old nigga rap. You know, I love the Clips. I

00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: love Griselda rock Marcy like I like a lot of

23
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 2: old motherfuckers. But yeah, you know, going to what you said, Bro,

24
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,479
Speaker 2: it's like, you know, for instance, in this in this

25
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:24,199
Speaker 2: new song, so be it push your t fucking rips

26
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 2: Travis Scott's head off in the last verse, and and

27
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: I tweeted out about how, Bro, I don't want to

28
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 2: hear Travis Scott response. Why why would I want that? Right?

29
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 2: You would understand it first of all? Right, Right, and

30
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 2: the whole thing is is, you know we discussed this

31
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 2: before with with with with the Drake and Kincher pief, Like,

32
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 2: how long is it going to be before we see

33
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 2: two guys who with the number one, number two rapper

34
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 2: in the game, who got pens, who are lyricists battling

35
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: each other? Right, because I think Travis Scott, if we

36
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 2: go the generation under us, Travis Scott is probably the

37
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 2: biggest superstar of batteare And we do not want to

38
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: hear this motherfucker respond to We do not want him

39
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 2: to get in the same fucking ring with this dude

40
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 2: when it comes to rapping. Right, It's just like, you know,

41
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 2: melody has replaced lyricism, and I don't want to be

42
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 2: the old guy saying if that's good or bad. That's

43
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 2: just the way that the genre has evolved, right that,

44
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: that's how rap works, so rapidly evolving genre. We're in

45
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 2: the era where melody kind of trump's lyricism right now.

46
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,959
Speaker 2: There might come a time. The thing about rap is

47
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 2: there's always usually just just one guy who kind of

48
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 2: shifts the whole shit, like like Weezy did in the

49
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: early two thousands, like fifty Cent did, and just changes

50
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 2: the whole, you know, trajectory of the shit. So lyricism

51
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 2: might come back, but I'm not necessarily holding my breath

52
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 2: on it. I think that rap is going to be

53
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 2: like a melody dominated genre for quite a while here.

54
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 2: And you know, to see the clips, bro, it's like,

55
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 2: and it's not just the clips, it's it's it's certain

56
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 2: rappers from that era, like like I remember when when

57
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 2: Mace did a freestyle on Commons the Corner Beat and

58
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 2: killed that shit, killed it. And I haven't heard Mace

59
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 2: rapp in fifteen fucking years. And the thing about that

60
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 2: era is if your pin was sharp in the in

61
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 2: the nineties and the two thousands, that motherfucker's gonna be

62
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 2: sharp forever. Bro that Um, yeah, that's what gonna say.

63
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: That jumper. Go you can, you can, you can put

64
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 2: you can suit up in that shooting shirt and go

65
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 2: out on the court and still, you know, go go

66
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 2: fucking eighteen for twenty from three. If you came up

67
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: in that era where rapping actually mattened, you know what

68
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: I mean. And the ship that I've been seeing from

69
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 2: the cliffs, bro, I it's it's it's so throwback in

70
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,399
Speaker 2: a great way. We are seeing a classic album roll out.

71
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 2: They dropped Ace Trumpets weeks ago, incredible, perfect fucking song. Right,

72
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: they drop a lead single six weeks before the album

73
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 2: comes up. They have this incredible GQ feature that is

74
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 2: just phenomenal. Right, So so they're going to lead single,

75
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 2: the editorial feature they had funk Flex you know, leaks

76
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: so be It. So they're going to radio. They had

77
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 2: a listening party with with with some you know, top

78
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 2: notch journalists you know, and and and now the journalists

79
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: are building the bus. So they're going about it that

80
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: way where they're given the journalists you know, uh, you know,

81
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: some insight into the album so they can build the

Speaker 2: buzz online. And then they drop a video for so

83
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 2: be It the day after their listening party. This is

84
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,960

00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 2: haven't seen in so long, in this Microwave era rap

86
