Since then, we've gone on 0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:28.880 to become Webby award winning podcasters in New York Times 0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:29.880 bestselling authors. 0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:32.440 Dead Ass was more than a podcast for us. It 0:00:32.520 --> 0:00:35.840 was about our growth, a place where we could be vulnerable. 0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:38.760 Be wraw or but most apportantly be us. 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:41.680 But as we know, life keeps evolving, and so do we, 0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:44.800 and through it all, one thing has never changed. 0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:48.279 This is a severafter dead Ass. 0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:50.840 Because we got a lot to talk about, all right, 0:00:51.120 --> 0:00:55.040 story time, So I'm gonna laugh while I say this, 0:00:55.120 --> 0:00:57.440 because y'all don't get a chance to see to run 0:00:57.480 --> 0:00:59.959 the shows, and typically trible rights down says story time, 0:01:00.200 --> 0:01:02.680 tell us about a moment when right so right now, 0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:06.440 it says, here Verbatien, tell us about a moment in 0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:09.360 twenty twenty six, when you thought things had already hit the. 0:01:09.280 --> 0:01:16.240 Fan a moment, like a moment I can't I really 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:19.160 cannot think about a moment, but I will say this, 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:26.160 watching what was going on with Ice in Minnesota, to 0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:29.039 me was like the most heartbreaking thing I had seen 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:30.840 in a very, very long time. 0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:31.959 And that was at the top of the year. 0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:34.280 That was the top of the year. It just seemed like, 0:01:35.560 --> 0:01:38.400 for the first time in my life. I know we 0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:40.319 as a people have experienced this, but this is the 0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:42.240 first time in my life I felt like it was us, 0:01:42.319 --> 0:01:46.399 we the people against the government. The only thing that 0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:48.520 I will say that for the first time in my life, 0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:51.720 it was a collective group though, like all of us 0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:54.520 as a people were against the government, and I will 0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:57.280 say that kind of felt good because it didn't seem 0:01:57.280 --> 0:01:59.440 like we were picking out certain people to defend. It 0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:06.600 was like, at this when all of us as citizens. 0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:07.480 Truth that is retired. We need to spiral that into 0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:12.120 karaoke facts. All right, karaoke time. I think I'm gonna 0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:20.440 put this on. Matt. You know why options off you? 0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:23.600 You can't use that one because when k sang that 0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:28.120 on the on another episode, it's the funniest ship I've 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:31.240 ever seen in my life because it was the most 0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:32.519 inappropriate use. 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:33.000 Of the song. 0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:35.360 Oh yes, yes, it wasn't supposed to. 0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.840 And we were all surprised by it. I watched that 0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:38.919 clip so many times. 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:40.640 It's just kind of pull the clip up. 0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:45.799 It was we're talking about episode. It was episode, and 0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:47.320 she was like a limit. 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:47.919 In between, like. 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:52.320 You can count on me for a little joke, Joe, 0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:55.200 not only through the through the karaoke to Matt, because 0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:57.280 I know one of your greatest moments that's going to 0:02:57.360 --> 0:02:59.520 come up in the show is by an artist who 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:00.560 has the album The Drops. 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:03.360 Oh yeah, but Chi, I gotta I gotta learn the 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:04.040 words in detail. 0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:08.560 What is there a throwback from him that we enjoy? 0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:11.440 Man, Matt got mad throwbacks. 0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:16.960 I think of Jordan, Illuminati, everybody.

How does it start? 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:52.600 Now? 0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:54.360 It's like a harmony. 0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:57.080 It is to go play it because I got to 0:03:57.120 --> 0:04:00.000 sing it one of the most. 0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:04.440 With him at home Girl.

The dopest moment me and Jackson 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:48.680 in the car listening to Jay Cole. I forgot the 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:50.839 lyric because I wasn't paying attention. I hit Jackson stop. 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:58.600 He goes that was a double Entandre said She's like, yeah, 0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:01.520 I got two meetings. The fact it got three meanings. 0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:03.520 I said, you starting to get it. 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:05.200 Get it? 0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:07.200 That's one thing? Would you say that? 0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:09.920 Well, I can't. We'll save that for the discussion. Let's 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.360 pay some bills and we'll come back with Oper no op. 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:21.280 I love it. All right, We're back. What you got 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:24.080 for us today? Triple oper no Op. 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:27.600 So this is going to fall into the Q one review. 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:32.800 Okay, if you don't mind, so, y'all remember the Target boycott? 0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:33.960 I know, could he even remember? 0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:42.880 She's yeah over so recently, I guess. Jamal Bryant announced 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:46.040 that the Target boycott had ended, saying that you know, 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.479 it had done what it needed to do, but other 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:51.800 activists and black folks alike saying, no the hell it didn't. 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:57.000 If it's up, then it's stuck. So opera, no op. 0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:58.440 Are we going back to Target or not? 0:05:58.720 --> 0:05:59.200 But what was it? 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:02.159 What was his What were the parameters in which he 0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:04.160 felt we don't need to lift the boy? 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:06.200 What happened he. 0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:08.080 Got his check? I think that's what it was. 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:11.440 There's no details room, there's no details. 0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:13.680 You're just going to randomly in my office, Like if 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:15.280 we're all and we're all going to be on the 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:17.240 same accord, we need to know what we're fighting for 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:18.600 and when we're going to stop, and if it's a 0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:21.800 collective stop because of what what did Target then do? 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:22.920 What did they implement? 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:27.240 Clay He claimed that in part a two billion dollar 0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:31.280 investment commitment for black owned businesses is what Target made, 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:35.200 and I think that he did his own. Target fast 0:06:35.360 --> 0:06:39.200 is what he called it for a year, But activists 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:42.839 don't think that Target did what they should have done 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:47.480 and reinvested into their DEI programs. Plus them divesting from 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:51.520 DEI programs just made it clear that we shouldn't be 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:56.040 shopping there anyway. So I think other activists want to 0:06:56.120 --> 0:06:57.720 run Target into the ground. 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:01.000 Whereas Jamal Bryant, I think I think he got a check. 0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:04.760 So here's here's my question. Who started the boycott, who 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:08.680 called for it? It wasn't him Minnesota. So now I 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:10.800 just want to I just want to bring this up right, 0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:15.320 He owes Tabitha Brown a huge apology because when Tabitha 0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:18.480 was trying to explain how certain things can happen to 0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:22.200 not only her but other people who are part of Target, 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:26.680 even when she made the video stating that she wasn't 0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:29.160 telling people to go to Target, she was telling people, 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:31.679 if you want to support these artists and these people 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:35.160 have things in Target, go to their website directly to 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:36.040 support them. 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:38.280 Right, Or if you're going to Target, go to Target 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:40.560 specifically to shop for those said process. 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.680 And he used that as an opportunity to jump on 0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:48.080 Tabs back and say things about tab and they created 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:49.760 a whole Yeah, it created a whole thing where people 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:51.520 were upset at tab trying to make it seem like 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.680 Tad was grifting and trying to utilize the people and 0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:57.520 the boycott to kill still line her pockets, which she wasn't. 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:00.240 But it just kills me that the same guy who 0:08:00.240 --> 0:08:01.920 did that is now calling for an end to the 0:08:01.920 --> 0:08:04.360 boycott when the people who started it are like, nah, bro, 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:06.800 I think that that needs to be said out loud 0:08:06.800 --> 0:08:08.480 and people need to hold him accountable for that. 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:09.000 Yeah. 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:13.920 So he claims that Target agreed to three of the 0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.800 four demands. I guess that maybe he took to them. 0:08:16.920 --> 0:08:21.400 He said they will maintain its existing DEI efforts, but 0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:25.680 do not plan to introduce new initiatives. They will launch 0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:29.480 a new partnership this fall, yet to be named, at 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:32.600 a yet to be named Southern HBCU, and they have 0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:36.040 invested ten million dollars that helped reopen the Pensoul Lewis 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:39.840 College of Business and Design in Detroit, the only HBCU 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:40.840 design school. 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:44.920 And then they detail. 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:48.640 Their contributions to the United Negro College Fund and scholarship programs. 0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:56.040 But the people who started the boycott, they still they say. 0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:59.040 They said, nothing has been fulfilled by the way until they. 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:04.040 Can be empty promises and saying they're gonna do something. 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:04.840 I don't know. 0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:07.560 I don't buy it quite yet. No, I don't buy it, 0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:09.199 and I don't think one person can. 0:09:09.080 --> 0:09:10.320 Just I don't think so either. 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:12.920 I don't negate everything that people have. 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:16.000 Been facts, you know, and this is the truth. They've 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.920 been trying to find people to put in the face 0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:21.280 of black people to say, hey, it's over. They came 0:09:21.320 --> 0:09:23.920 to us a couple of months ago asking. 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:25.319 Actually last may or June. 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:28.080 I think it was asking us to sit down on 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:31.160 a panel or something and talk, and we were like nah, 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:33.440 And it came with a check, as always they always 0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:34.679 come with a check. But I think this is the 0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:36.800 point where they're starting to realize, like, wait a minute, 0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:40.400 Black consumers dollars really freaking matter, and we need somebody 0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:41.920 to get in front to tell them that it's over 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:44.520 and people are not buying it anymore, and they're not 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:46.200 They're not going to just go on social media and 0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:48.720 listen to one person like people are going to go 0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:50.760 stick to the ten toes down. I think now is 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:53.080 the time when we stick ten toes down. I haven't 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.360 been back to Target. You haven't our life has been fine. 0:09:55.400 --> 0:10:00.320 Since that's right, I would agree with that. 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:05.520 So that's my ap Yeah. 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:10.680 I got another oper no op and this is another 0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:11.960 cue one and review thing. 0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:14.880 Something that I found hilarious that came back up on 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:20.120 a timeline this week is a person affectionately known as 0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:26.080 bro Rilla, and it's Gloriala's thud sister. I don't know 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:29.600 her name, but earlier this year she was on the 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:33.360 internet complaining that Glorilla hasn't done anything for her family. 0:10:33.440 --> 0:10:37.720 I think Golorilla has like twelve siblings, a bunch of siblings, 0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:40.680 and she stated in this video that she was so 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:45.360 hungry one time she almost ate a roach. And she's 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:49.040 going in on Glorilla. And when somebody sat down with 0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:51.520 her and asked how much money do you think would 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:55.400 be fair for Gloriala to give you and each of your. 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:57.680 Siblings, I said, so ridiculous. 0:10:57.840 --> 0:10:59.600 She said five thousand. 0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:04.200 That's said she did all this for five You know 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:05.079 what that shows? 0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:07.480 It was so exhausting. 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:11.359 I have no this this was never really about Gloilla 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:14.560 and her needing money. It was she just wanted to 0:11:14.760 --> 0:11:19.800 some attention. Man. I hope they pray and they family 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:22.960 heal and because you know, it's a lot having someone 0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:24.600 who's in the news all the time and then you 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:26.840 have a sister who's going through all of this stuff. Like, 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:28.480 I hope they heal as a family and leave their 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:30.040 stuff out of the internet. That's all I got for. 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:32.040 I'm not giving that no attention. 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:42.280 No man. 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:43.160 Is hilarious that they call her brolla. I never saw. 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:47.040 The first time I seen it was fifty cents speaking 0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:49.600 of this somewhere Spiral, Listen to Inspiral, Listen to fifty 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.440 cent and t I, because we are we doing so 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:55.400 this is This may be an unpopular opinion, right, but 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:58.400 this is what I honestly believe. I honestly believe that 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:01.600 t I and fifty cent together to start this beef. 0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:05.079 It has been super entertaining. TI I got an album 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:09.040 coming out, fifty cent is dropping new TV shows. I 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:12.240 think it was brilliant because they were Everybody was talking 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:14.680 for about them for like two weeks straight, and I 0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:17.880 couldn't go anywhere without anybody talking about it. I think 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:19.600 some people out here in the world are taking it 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:23.120 a bit too serious, too literally. I don't think T 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:25.240 I and fifty cent are taking it seriously at all. 0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:27.520 I really don't. I think it's hilarious. I think they 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:29.120 are laughing at all of the people who think it's 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:33.760 real because I mean, even King getting involved involved and 0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:36.720 him rapping about it, it showed his ability as a rapper. 0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:39.480 It's like everybody's been showcasing their talent through a beef. 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.760 I think that's the one piece that I think is real. 0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:44.120 Because fifty was talking about his mom's so King jumped 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:45.719 in and trying to defend his mom. 0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:47.800 I say, as a mother, why we gotta be the. 0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:54.080 I think I think because fifty is a millennial from 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:57.000 Queen's Your mother is the hardest thing you can say 0:12:57.040 --> 0:13:00.640 to somebody. Somebody said anything, and you'll know what to say. 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:03.520 I think. I think it was calculated because that's how 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:06.160 you get the kids involved. If he doesn't say anything 0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:08.880 about Tiny, the kids don't care because remember the kids 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:11.320 was beefing with t I beefing, which I don't even 0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:13.439 think was a real thing. You know what I'm saying. 0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:15.840 I think all of that. I think all of that 0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:17.960 is a way for them to kind of get people 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:21.000 involved in It's like a reality show on Maybe it's 0:13:21.080 --> 0:13:24.400 not real, but I will say every day. 0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:29.080 I realized more and more why fifty cent got shot 0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:29.840 nine times? 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:33.040 You know what I'm saying. Somebody was really like, shut 0:13:33.200 --> 0:13:33.640 the fuck. 0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:36.959 God, that's crazy. 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:41.800 I think he's a master market I do. I really 0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:44.600 do think he's I can't remember a time when fifty 0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:47.000 cent wasn't starting beef and his shows weren't number one, 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:50.800 that's right, and his album wasn't number one. Yeah, I'm 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:53.160 talking about back when he started. 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:57.400 He started his industry, running and coming to everybody. 0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:00.360 To everybody like this. If you know from long enough, 0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:03.240 you realize the play and realize how smart it is. 0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:05.720 Yeah, he ruined. 0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:10.960 How about y'all will run? How about this? If fifty 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:12.959 cent was really that much of a detriment, you think 0:14:13.000 --> 0:14:15.360 these big companies will be investing in him the way 0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:20.160 they are when you really much detriment. That's what I'm saying. 0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:22.760 The thing that's crazy to about fifty cent is that 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:25.120 he's sober, so all. 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:34.720 This his right mind. That's the craziest. 0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:37.360 Better, I guess, because it's like he really no, he's 0:14:37.400 --> 0:14:38.120 really nuts. 0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:40.680 I will say this. He do have vendettas against people, 0:14:41.040 --> 0:14:42.200 and he really don't care. 0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:42.840 He don't care. 0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:45.120 He don't care, you know, what I'm saying, But that's 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:47.280 what happens when you get shot nine times. Someone trying 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:48.720 to end my life and you expect me to care. 0:14:48.760 --> 0:14:49.800 But I came back from it. 0:14:50.160 --> 0:14:51.800 Yeah, like I'm not going to care about people. 0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:54.960 You're not really going to do nothing to me. The 0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:56.960 worst has been done to me already. I don't have 0:14:57.040 --> 0:14:58.920 my mother, I don't have my grandparents no more. 0:14:59.120 --> 0:14:59.920 You see what I'm saying. 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.360 I shot nine times and I'm successful. Can you really 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:05.640 do growing up? He was confused. His mama was kissing 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:05.960 the girl. 0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:18.680 That's what he said, Triple. That was good. I listen. 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:22.120 I this may be unpopular belief, but I actually love fifty. 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:24.840 You know my story with fifty. I know I was 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:29.840 working as unt double to a Mario Hotwick. He remembered 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:33.280 me from the funeral video. Was like, YO, pulled me 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:35.160 in the room and talk to me for like two hours, 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:36.800 and was the one that was just like, YO, if 0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:38.680 you're doing it, he's watched my videos. None of my 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:42.480 videos twenty sixteen. You can fact check this. Twenty sixteen, 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.080 none of my videos had gone viral yet. And I 0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:46.880 was doing the videos and I was showing him. He's like, YO, 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:48.640 this is some funny family. He said, this don't the 0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:50.680 ship I'll be doing, but this is funny. He was like, 0:15:50.760 --> 0:15:53.480 keep posting it and eventually one gonna go. And when 0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:55.840 it go, now you have a catalog. He's like, this 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.640 is what happens with artists. They get one hit song, 0:15:58.720 --> 0:16:00.440 they throw it on YouTube, and now people go to 0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:02.480 their YouTube page looking for more music and they don't 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:04.640 got none. He was like, you got it, so just 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:09.240 keep posting it. And September thirteenth, twenty sixteen, I posted 0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:12.760 a video ok after she had Cairo, and it went viral, 0:16:13.040 --> 0:16:15.240 and then I started going back to all my old videos. 0:16:15.400 --> 0:16:17.680 All the old videos started having over one hundred thousand, 0:16:17.920 --> 0:16:20.360 and I was like, yo, fifty was right. He was like, 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:20.840 he was right. 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:24.000 He's consistency with social media. 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:25.080 It was like the way to do it, this is 0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:26.760 before social media was Really. 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:30.160 He was the first one. So I could see like 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:33.200 he plays very calculated games, but he understands. When he 0:16:33.240 --> 0:16:36.200 says I am the algorithm, he really means that he 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:39.360 knows how to make stuff trend. So I could see 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:41.360 him in TI sitting down and being like, yo, we 0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:44.200 should do this. It's like a beef laughing at everybody laughing. 0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:45.200 I could see them laughing. 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:47.880 I honestly thought it started legit. I don't think fifty 0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:50.920 cents doesn't. I think when he starts with people, he's 0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:52.960 legit with it. But I can see him saying, like, 0:16:53.120 --> 0:16:55.760 let's play into this and make perfect marketing sense. 0:16:56.840 --> 0:16:57.280 Agree with that. 0:16:57.400 --> 0:16:59.400 I think it's speaking of like legendary beef. 0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:03.160 I feel like Josh has a has a review point 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:06.639 that is also some legendary beef that happened. 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:10.119 Oh afro Man, what. 0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:12.840 He's talking about? 0:17:13.080 --> 0:17:13.199 Yo? 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:17.760 So afro Man is a uh a rapper. Yeah, he's 0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:23.040 a rapper slash freedom fighter. So he sang a classic 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:25.680 yeah because I got hot that song that came out 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:29.280 in two thousands that we were in college. And so 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:31.239 he went to court. I don't really know what the 0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:32.879 what the whole case was about, but I know he 0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:36.240 went to court to try to recoup some money, and 0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:38.720 I think he had the police department also had a 0:17:38.720 --> 0:17:42.840 defamation case against him. So what I thought was funny 0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:45.679 was that he made songs of all the officers that 0:17:45.760 --> 0:17:49.280 were like in the court, sorry, all the officers that 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:52.120 were raising his house. He made a song about one 0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:54.960 called pound Cake or lemon, lemon pound cake. 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:55.679 Uh. 0:17:55.800 --> 0:17:58.920 He made a song about a bald officer and the 0:17:59.000 --> 0:18:01.520 officer sued him for The officer tried to sue him 0:18:01.560 --> 0:18:05.600 for defamation. And guess what the officer is actually bald. 0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:10.040 Uh. 0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:14.760 They try to sue him for making allegations of him 0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:17.600 actually uh, saying that he cheated his one of the 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:19.880 officer's wife's cheated with him. 0:18:20.320 --> 0:18:21.720 It was all funny and hilarious. 0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:21.880 Man. 0:18:21.920 --> 0:18:23.800 Two days, I think two or three days on Instagram. 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:24.600 Uh. 0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:30.040 The court case like went viral and ultimately uh Afroman one. 0:18:30.680 --> 0:18:32.840 But this is what they're using our taxpayer dollars for. 0:18:32.920 --> 0:18:35.639 They in court talking about Afroman and the cops arguing 0:18:35.680 --> 0:18:37.440 about lyrics. 0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:42.320 They was mad because they said that Afroman his songs 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:45.000 played played to like. 0:18:46.520 --> 0:18:47.200 Public trust. 0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:49.920 No one was gonna like trust the police because the 0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:52.840 Afroman was making songs about them coming to his house 0:18:52.920 --> 0:18:55.720 and raiding them and stealing money. 0:18:56.400 --> 0:19:01.120 Okay, this also happened outside of my home town, Cincinnati. 0:19:01.240 --> 0:19:03.920 It's really close to Cincinnati, but in a smaller town, 0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:09.600 so the news of these songs traveled fast around there, 0:19:09.760 --> 0:19:10.600 and so. 0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:12.400 The kids at school was talking shit. 0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:17.520 I personally, there's one song about a female officer named Lisa. 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:19.840 And this song's been stuck in my head since I've 0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:22.560 learned about it, has been waiting to be waiting. 0:19:24.600 --> 0:19:25.080 He said. 0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:32.520 Lick low, Lisa, Lick him low, Lisa.
