I would 0:01:19.360 --> 0:01:25.440 say more like organized discourse. Here. 0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.240 You gonna come start, man. You know this this, this 0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:28.479 is the cheap rent section. 0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:35.000 You can't come over here arguing it is. It is debate, conversation, 0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:37.000 aggressively conversation. 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:39.319 Let me ask you this, man, Some of them dudes, 0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:42.760 and this is no disrespect to Elliott or any of them. 0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:47.600 That's whenever whenever a niggas say no disrespect, the disrespect 0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:49.560 for to come in no. 0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:53.800 Because your opinion for to be different than what a 0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:59.160 motherfucker talking about. No disrespect. But it's always a butt. 0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:02.600 Probably what's the butt? 0:02:02.320 --> 0:02:04.560 Don't it seem like it's a lot of corn balls 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:07.320 that's commentating and speaking on hip hop nowadays? 0:02:07.560 --> 0:02:10.400 Haven't it always been? No? 0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:12.560 Not really, man, because I think about the catt that 0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:15.400 I thought were corn balls. Actually, you know, looking back, 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:19.040 they really wasn't corn balls. They was great compared to 0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:21.920 this crop of motherfuckers we got today. 0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:23.839 I mean who compared to who? Though? 0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:26.880 Like, what do you mean as far as who like, 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:28.600 what's what's the comparisons? 0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:32.960 What would you say, like a person that you felt was. 0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:34.560 You know, a. 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:41.799 Great uh commentator on hip hop opposed to somebody who 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:44.040 was corny as I think, you know what. 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:46.720 Man doctor Dre and they a lover your MTV reps. 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:49.760 I think they was cool. Okay, I think they was cool, 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:53.760 big Tigger. Back then, we really didn't have nobody that 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:57.280 was corny. We had you know what we had, guys, 0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:01.280 No I said, no ticket was tight, big ticket was 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:04.840 So who was corny? You know what? Back then, I 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:08.040 thought the dude Joe Claire, they hosted Rap City. 0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:11.800 For Nigga, said Joe Claire. 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:14.840 I think Joe Claire for a minute, but then compared 0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:18.040 to the people that compared to the people that we 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.960 got today, bro, that motherfucker was amazing. 0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:23.880 But what what what constitutes somebody is being corny? 0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:27.519 Just somebody that's not really from the culture. So they 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:30.440 have this really skewed opinion on how stuff should be. 0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:34.880 Like I hear people saying like just just off the 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:40.320 wall ship Like, well I heard that, you know, Kendrick 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:41.760 just drug up a bunch of shit, you know what 0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:44.200 I mean. It's like, oh, I don't think he did this. 0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:48.080 It's like, motherfucker, what record you've been listening to? You 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:49.240 saying you feel what I'm saying? 0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:52.320 What record? Just well? I think that people people always 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:55.600 convolute their opinion for facts. They always say they always 0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.120 like they have an opinion about something, and in the 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:01.840 opinion they pass off as a fact instead of it 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.480 being an opinion. It's all artists all up to your 0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:07.160 it's your opinion. Eight got an opinion, you got an opinion. 0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:10.400 I have an opinion. So it's like, I think what 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.640 happens is you just disagree with their opinion. But then 0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:15.600 it'd be a lot of people who I think what 0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:17.880 you would say come off as corner. They try to 0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:20.560 pass their opinion off like it's law exactly. 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:24.919 You know, the days of your opinion to a motherfucker 0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:28.000 self is is their fact? 0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:33.280 You get me. You try to tell. 0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:38.680 Motherfuckers today that you know, nigga, that's really your opinion. 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:42.960 But a motherfucker are you to death if they feel 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:48.359 like bullshit? Nigga, I heard and then so and so said, 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:51.120 and like I told the motherfucker the other day, there 0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:53.480 is no fact. It's just nigga. I want to get 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:56.640 the story out or whatever it is. First, there is 0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:59.840 no facts to this shit. So, motherfucker, if you could 0:04:59.880 --> 0:05:03.920 tell the motherfucking nigga really what you're saying. It's your 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:09.159 person and there's nothing wrong with that. But people feel 0:05:09.320 --> 0:05:12.599 like their personal opinions are their true fact. 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:12.960 Nigga. 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:17.120 That's whatever, nigga, You get me. So that's what I mean. 0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:17.640 Right there. 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:21.440 You see all are arguing, right, and people really be 0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:23.840 invested in this stuff like it's like like it's a 0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:26.040 matter of life and death. And I told somebody the 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:28.520 other day, I said, bro, there's nothing because he said, well, 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:31.200 he wanted to get the last word, Drake Won, I said, 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:33.560 if you feel that in your heart, my god, that's 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.480 cool because this stuff is subjective. It is there's no 0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:40.599 truth right or wrong. It's just who wins the who 0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:42.880 wins the public opinion, belly, you feel what I mean? 0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:46.160 If more people in public opinion seem like they're saying 0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:47.159 you won, that's the winner. 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:50.680 I mean, it's all it's all the court of public opinion. 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:55.279 But it's kind of crazy to say, Drake one. But 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:57.960 you know what, But but here's the thing, like everybody, Okay, 0:05:57.960 --> 0:06:00.279 this is how I look at opinions, right, opinion. You know, 0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:02.480 they'd be like, oh, it's like assholes. I think an 0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:05.680 opinion is like an independent record label. Everybody got one 0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:11.400 these days, right, So so when you look at it like, oh, 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:13.520 you have an opinion, I have an opinion, it's like 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:16.400 what he said, when you pass your opinion off, like 0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:19.560 that's it. That's where people got it sucked up. And 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:20.719 I think that's where they go wrong. 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:23.520 They get it really misconstrued. And then you have all 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:27.719 and then forget the dudes that's getting paid to commentate. Right, 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:32.320 Let's talk about the fans for a minute. You would 0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:34.920 see some of these fans, man, they would like they 0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:35.760 were about to cry. 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:39.400 Man, I did see a fan cry, Actually you did, Yeah, 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:41.880 I did see the I saw these academics get emotional 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.359 on his stream. I don't know if he cried because 0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:47.880 crime has a definition, but it was as close to 0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:50.800 it as possible. Yeah, it's like, it's not this series, 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:51.520 it's a rep. 0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:53.960 It's a bat. 0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:57.040 I'm like, oh, man, but. 0:06:57.000 --> 0:07:01.040 Hey, shit is just weird man.

And you know what I told somebody the 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:36.520 other day, I said, man, save that type of energy 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:39.280 for your family, for your friends, for stuff that really 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.200 matters in life. You sitting up, you're worried about two dudes, 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.280 two people that got way more money than you. 0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:46.360 I mean, but a lot of this shit is for 0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:49.560 show man, if you want to ask me. You know, 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:52.760 niggas get on and be streaming live and then like 0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:54.560 just a lot. 0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:56.040 Of this shit is for show man. 0:07:56.640 --> 0:08:00.480 It gotta be like, come on, this shit gotta be 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:04.480 for show because grown ass me and acting like like man, 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:05.720 this shit is crazy. 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:09.120 Well, you know, Like to your point, though, I think 0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:11.680 that they do have stuff invested. You got you got 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:14.160 to But but I don't think it's money or nothing 0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:16.320 or like it ain't like the person's signed to their 0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:18.440 label or a nothing like that. I think they invest 0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:23.240 it because it's a distraction from like life like, for instance, 0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:25.160 if you you know how like some people go get high, 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.120 some people go get drunk, some people have their advices. 0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:31.040 Other people just dive into other people's lives, like when 0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:35.600 you watch reality TV. I don't personally watch reality TV 0:08:35.640 --> 0:08:37.640 because I got enough drama in my own life to 0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:40.719 where exactly real. So I think when you when you're 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:42.920 going through real shit, I don't think you can really 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:45.000 invest that much into other people's shit like that. 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.880 I mean, still you sit up and be emotional or 0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:53.400 if your favorite artist got this, sitting at home crying 0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:56.319 and shit, motherfucking bro, I. 0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:58.240 Don't lose a bit of sleep. And I'm gonna tell 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:02.800 you this too. Everybody up here really no K do right, 0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:06.480 and they ain't there one of us got emotionally, you 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:09.079 know what I was telling somebody, I said, if I 0:09:09.080 --> 0:09:10.920 would have thought K got lost, I would have said 0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:13.480 it too. And it don't mean that I still love 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:15.400 him to death. It don't mean you have nothing to 0:09:15.400 --> 0:09:18.360 do with that. But he just lost a rap battle, y'all. Man, 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.040 Drake got him. Because I'm not gonna lie when if 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:23.720 one record came out, the drop and give him fifty records. 0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:28.520 You know that ship, I said, man, this shit is hot, 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:30.600 this shit is hard, Kate, Like we had the rap. 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:34.120 That's why I knew it would be interesting because he 0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:38.240 came with such a strong first record. Then when Doc 0:09:38.360 --> 0:09:41.040 came back, you know, he countered back, I said, okay, 0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:43.880 we got a fight now. Yeah, it wasn't no clear 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:45.840 winner yet, but I said, Doc got action. 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.600 You feel what I mean? Well, I think. I mean. 0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:52.400 The thing is I didn't even intentionally get involved. They 0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:54.520 dragged me into that shit, like I didn't have nothing 0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:58.920 to do with it. But when when he dropped the 0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:03.240 Push Ups record, I expressed a sentiment that everybody shares, 0:10:03.320 --> 0:10:06.880 like why is academics the only person on earth with 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.760 the record? Like if you if it's your record, on 0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:12.920 to claim the record? Like where we from? You can't 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:15.240 false flag, you can't. You can't even get away with that, 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:18.079 right because they either either they gonna deal with you 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:20.760 or they gonna deal with you. Somebody gonna deal with you. Right, 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:24.679 So if that's your record, claim your record, that's your 0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:27.800 that's your song. Right. Why that's like me putting the 0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:29.440 record out and you're the only one in the world 0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:30.880 with it. Why it is not out? Why is not 0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:32.960 on my YouTube? Why is not on my SoundCloud. That 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:35.400 was the only thing that I brought up. So once 0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:38.160 he claimed the record and it became real, I had 0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:40.959 no doubt that the hommy was gonna mop him up 0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:43.840 like it was. It's not to be honest, you know 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.920 how like when people say, oh, h that's not a 0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:50.040 fair fight, right, if you watch boxing or whatever. Like 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:52.120 if me and me and you go outside right now 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:54.920 and you're like, man, let's fight, people gonna look at 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:56.560 me and be like, well, at least head went out 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:59.320 there and took the fade. Only time you say that 0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:02.200 is when you have doubt that the person gonna win. Yeah, 0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:04.280 you be like, oh, at least at least he went 0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:06.559 and fought. Though, whenever you say at least he went 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:08.360 and fought, that means you already know like he had 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:11.719 a disadvantage. He could get it in his ass. That's 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:12.400 all I'm saying. 0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:16.080 He's gonna get in his ass. You know what I think, man, 0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:20.800 I think Drake is a top tier artist. 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:21.319 Me too. 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:21.760 One. 0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:24.040 You know, it's the reason why he's selling all these 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:28.360 records right probably the most successful hip hop artists in 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:31.360 the game right now. I would say, as of a 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:33.240 few weeks ago, you know, Doc might have took that 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:34.040 spot from him. 0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:38.280 But yeah, but this is a decade long yeah you know, so, yeah, 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:40.760 that's fair to say he's had a ring, man, and 0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:42.000 he's not trash. 0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:45.680 I told somebody, I said, man, you can't even have 0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:49.240 an opinion without somebody.
