Speaker 3: by P and C Bank, a lot of people think
Speaker 3: podcasts about work are boring, and sure, they definitely can be,
Speaker 3: but understanding of professional's routine shows us how they achieve
Speaker 3: their success little by little, day after day. It's like
Speaker 3: banking with P and C Bank. It might seem boring

Speaker 3: Boring since eighteen sixty five. Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty
Speaker 3: five is a service mark of the PNC Financial Service Group, Inc.
Speaker 3: P and C Bank National Association Member FDIC.
Speaker 5: All right, when you said something I was insightful. You said,
Speaker 5: this is gonna be bigger than when Michael Jackson went
Speaker 5: against the music industry. I believe so, Michael, And it's
Speaker 5: when Prince had slave on his face.
Speaker 4: I believe so.
Speaker 1: The money is bigger.
Speaker 4: Not only is the money bigger, we get access to
Speaker 4: the information quicker. There wasn't social media, it wasn't heavy
Speaker 4: back then. We can read We can read the actual petition,
Speaker 4: We can read the actual lawsuit in minutes as it
Speaker 4: comes out. We can go back and track everything. I
Speaker 4: think Drake has been dropping little you know, bread crumbs
Speaker 4: throughout his music over the last year and a half
Speaker 4: that is going to point directly to this situation. And
Speaker 4: I just think that it's interesting that the guy that
Speaker 4: people paint as you know, the soft light skined god
Speaker 4: from Canada is now doing something that I don't think
Speaker 4: no other artist has the balls to do.
Speaker 2: He's going against the industry.
Speaker 4: He's going against not only the industry, the label that
Speaker 4: he has kept the lights on for over fifteen Yeah.
Speaker 2: So he's really a hero in this situation.
Speaker 5: We are to sea as far as like, I just
Speaker 5: think that's William Wallace pretty much.
Speaker 4: I think it speaks to his character more than anything
Speaker 4: right now. I think it's it's like oh shit, like
Speaker 4: word like you you taking Lucie in the court.
Speaker 5: But for the people, because I already know the comment
Speaker 5: think of like oh you're glazed, and yeah.
Speaker 4: No matter what you say, no matter what, let's be
Speaker 4: human table And because I want to say that battle
Speaker 4: without the back of the universal like this this should
Speaker 4: happened with fifty and fifty at I mean winning each other.
Speaker 1: It's the same ship, just a different decade.
Speaker 5: But but Kendrick did fight, a tactical, strategic fight and
Speaker 5: had dope lyrics and dope song.
Speaker 4: Nobody's taking nothing away from that. Nobody's saying he didn't
Speaker 4: with Drake. I believe it's saying is the business did
Speaker 4: something in this moment.
Speaker 1: That directly to make it bigger brand.
Speaker 4: Not only that, but I have contract You think that
Speaker 4: you think that Beyonce's home would be allowed to put
Speaker 4: a picture of Beyonce's home would be allowed on DSPs
Speaker 4: with sex offender marks above it, And these are things
Speaker 4: that happen and we're not paying attention to that, we
Speaker 4: thinking it's just a battle. I'm more than positive that
Speaker 4: the biggest artist in his world has some language in
Speaker 4: his contracts where what the DSPs did with that photo
Speaker 4: was definitely against his contract. Yeah, I'm more than positive
Speaker 4: because again, this is big This is billion dollar business responsions.
Speaker 4: This is not this is not the average artist. This
Speaker 4: is the biggest artist in the world, one of the
Speaker 4: biggest artists in the world, one of the three him
Speaker 4: tailor Beyonce in my opinion. Yeah, so that's the real
Speaker 4: big three, that's the real big three. So we want
Speaker 4: to talk big three. This is the big three business
Speaker 4: that we are now seeing. This is a Big three
Speaker 4: war that we're seeing right now. This is what happens
Speaker 4: when one of the Big Three decides your the labels
Speaker 4: did some bullshit and I'm gonna make them pay for it.
Speaker 6: On the other side, and some of the mistakes that
Speaker 6: he made when you talk to him, did you ever
Speaker 6: be like, bro, you're going crazy like fucking everybody girl,
Speaker 6: so stop.
Speaker 4: Or that type of I don't, I don't. I don't
Speaker 4: get into none of that, man, all of that. That's
Speaker 4: you know, I stay out of that.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 4: My My conversations are very uh you know, it's it's
Speaker 4: just I don't even we don't. I don't speak I
Speaker 4: speak to him the same way I'm speaking to y'all.
Speaker 4: Bro conversations, Bro, Like I don't, I don't get into that.
Speaker 4: So from.
Speaker 5: Me tweeted, No, he's pretty much said, like I'm paraphrasing,
Speaker 5: but like I told y'all talking about the bots, because
Speaker 5: he had complain that bots was was he playing that
Speaker 5: box was tearing down his image and you know me,
Speaker 5: he's had a tough time, right, so he was saying
Speaker 5: that a lot of this ship is not real and
Speaker 5: it's it's it's fueled by bots, and so he's kind
Speaker 5: of getting some validation from Drake making his claim because
Speaker 5: he's like, when I said it, they said I was crazy,
Speaker 5: But now Drake is saying it, Like, so they're pretty
Speaker 5: much saying that there are social the same thing that
Speaker 5: happened with the election, right this, I mean, this is
Speaker 5: deeper than rap because this happened and with Russia influencing
Speaker 5: the election and Mark Zuckerberg had to go in front
Speaker 5: of Congress. This isn't conspiracy. This is actual facts that
Speaker 5: this actually does happen with users are on social media
Speaker 5: that are not real users that are very vocal in comments,
Speaker 5: and that persuades. So if I have if I put
Speaker 5: a post up in ninety comments are negative to my
Speaker 5: looking at it's just human nature. You're going to tend
Speaker 5: to start looking at that post negative, negative, and that
Speaker 5: gets the stream roll. So that happens in real life.
Speaker 5: Like I said, it happened in the presidential election. So
Speaker 5: now they're saying this is actually being curated in the
Speaker 5: music industry. That's interesting, And yeah, Drake is saying that
Speaker 5: that's one of the reasons why that song became so
Speaker 5: big because its shaped public perception.
Speaker 2: Once the momentum got moving on social media.
Speaker 4: And I think that the fact that it shaped public perception.
Speaker 4: But again, and this is something that I said from
Speaker 4: the very start of this love Kendrick, Kendrick fan support Kendrick, Yeah,
Speaker 4: but him calling one of the biggest artists in the
Speaker 4: world a certified pedophile. To me, that was like, wait a,
Speaker 4: y'all listening to this, Like you see what happened with
Speaker 4: Jaguar Wright just went on Pis Morgan and said what
Speaker 4: she said about Jay and Beyonce. You'll never see Jaguar Wright.
Speaker 4: You might not ever see Jaguar Wright on another major
Speaker 4: platform again in your life.
Speaker 5: But all right, but to keep it all right, I know,
Speaker 5: but there is a precedent in the hip hop where
Speaker 5: people say crazy shit.
Speaker 2: In battle rap they call people God blessed.
Speaker 4: We lost pocket big behind a rap battle. Neither one
Speaker 4: of them Jay and Ois went at it. Neither one
Speaker 4: of them.
Speaker 1: I told I told him this, If that.
Speaker 4: Was that word, bro, that's something that you're what I said,
Speaker 4: who the girl was he was fucking with? Just like
Speaker 4: you lied about the other kids drinking, Like come on, man,
Speaker 4: hit yo, the pedophile. You can't call one of the
Speaker 4: biggest artists in the world a sex offender, and then
Speaker 4: the label pushed that recon and pushed that mess. They
Speaker 4: put millions of dollars behind that desists. Yeah, it's like
Speaker 4: like what like y'all really pushed this message to try
Speaker 4: to defamate his character. And again, I don't know his business,
Speaker 4: but I'm more than certain that it affected some brands
Speaker 4: and some people to kind of be like, yo, let
Speaker 4: this die because we don't know what's going on with
Speaker 4: this pedophile thing. Like, let's just kind of.
Speaker 2: It didn't get as much traction.
Speaker 5: But did he not call Kendrick Lamar a wife beater
Speaker 5: and abuser of women?
Speaker 4: I think he posed the question when you hit you
Speaker 4: when you beat your girls because.
Speaker 2: She's big exactly.
Speaker 7: So that's actually just like this actual I believe there's
Speaker 7: an actual case case out on this happened in Vegas
Speaker 7: where he assaulted a female.
Speaker 1: That they swept under the row too fancial just and I.
Speaker 2: Think that this is out there, So that wasn't just
Speaker 2: a bogus action.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that wasn't.
Speaker 4: I don't believe it was. And if and if it was,
Speaker 4: and if it was, if it was, I think drags
Speaker 4: on the side of Yeah, but We didn't spend millions
Speaker 4: of dollars to push that.
Speaker 1: Message though wrong is wrong, but like that we was.
Speaker 4: It was a battle. I said some things. Cool is
Speaker 4: it if it's not true?
Speaker 2: All right? Correct?
Speaker 1: Good?
Speaker 4: Yeah, But I also didn't put twenty thirty million dollars
Speaker 4: behind this song into the DSPs and all of this,
Speaker 4: and and and then have Spotify take thirty percent less
Speaker 4: of a license fee to put this on.
Speaker 2: Talk about that?
Speaker 4: What is that?
Speaker 5: Because even when Roy said that, I want to can
Speaker 5: you kind of just explain what, like what does he
Speaker 5: mean by that?
Speaker 4: Because Lucien obviously is the is the the biggest guy
Speaker 4: in the music business. Obviously the DSPs and the labels
Speaker 4: are one. So basically it's inside of trading.
Speaker 2: They ain't codes with each other.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, yes, absolutely, So it's like you're gonna take They
Speaker 4: wouldn't do that for any other artists. No other artists do.
Speaker 4: They drop their thirty percent license fee and say, okay, whatever,
Speaker 4: what ever, put your music here, like.
Speaker 5: Just because they wanted to get it out there so
Speaker 5: so much, they wanted to express it that some.
Speaker 4: Of that businesses above my pay grade. But like I said,
Speaker 4: but I'm standing on the side of it again. I
Speaker 4: didn't speak to Drake about none of it. Well, I'm
Speaker 4: lying I did, but I didn't speak to him in
Speaker 4: detail about what's happening. Is very surfaced. It's very like,
Speaker 4: let it all play out. People are going to see you.
Speaker 2: Spoke to him recently.
Speaker 4: Absolutely all of this shit happened, and I got it
Speaker 4: hit get like, what the right? But again, you know,
Speaker 4: I don't speak about things that I speak with your
Speaker 4: guys I know, and people I know privately. I don't
Speaker 4: speak about it publicly.
Speaker 2: But I just got to in good spirits. He's in
Speaker 2: great spirit. It seems like he's bothered. It seems that way.
Speaker 4: It's gonna. It's gonna even if he if he goes
Speaker 4: out here and buys a new plane. People he did
Speaker 4: that because he mad.
Speaker 2: Because he cut his head.
Speaker 5: He's talking about the Rose then he told him cut
Speaker 5: cut the weekends music. He's making some moves that are questionable.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but if I'm not fucking with you, don't play.
Speaker 4: When you were on to the Raptors, I put my
Speaker 4: arms around you. The city embraced you, partly because I
Speaker 4: embraced you, and I'm the biggest guy in the city.
Speaker 2: That's the fact.
Speaker 4: I embraced you. I showed you love. When the Raptors
Speaker 4: traded you, you came to my house and was depressed
Speaker 4: and crying, not you know, probably not physically crying, but
Speaker 4: you were heard about being traded, and I was the
Speaker 4: guy that was there for you, you know, telling yours
Speaker 4: you're gonna be good. The city's gonna always love you.
Speaker 4: And now all of a sudden, somebody's calling me the
Speaker 4: worst thing you can call anybody in my vinie, worse
Speaker 4: than the snitch. I don't care about that snitch shit.
Speaker 4: A pedophile is way worse than that.
Speaker 2: That's the fact.
Speaker 4: So now they're calling me this you from Compton. I
Speaker 4: understand that, not saying you can't be a yeah, but
Speaker 4: to stand in the video and dance on the stage
Speaker 4: when he's calling me a pedophile, Yeah, it's like, bro,
Speaker 4: like it's cool to be like, Yo, Kendrick, you my man,
Speaker 4: but y'all, Drake is my homie too. But I can't.
Speaker 4: I can't do this video, bro, I can't support this message.
Speaker 4: I can't do that.
Speaker 6: And that's the craziest part about not like us. It's
Speaker 6: through kendred exclusive license to end Scope. They didn't even
Speaker 6: put the ship on this album. So how did that?
Speaker 4: Why?
Speaker 1: That's why and why not then put the ship on
Speaker 1: the album?
Speaker 4: That because I feel like Universal knew that this was coming.
Speaker 6: Absolutely, so let's make this a stand alone released and
Speaker 6: as act as if we have him independent when he's
Speaker 6: not shot. Wack was one of the first ones, even
Speaker 6: from that side, to call it and then to not
Speaker 6: place it on this album.
Speaker 4: Why, I'm of the belief again, I don't know. I'm
Speaker 4: just you know, we just kept getting this in real time.
Speaker 4: I think that Universal knew what was coming behind what
Speaker 4: they did with this record and probably told And now
Speaker 4: I do believe a deluxe is coming. I do believe
Speaker 4: Kendrick is going to add more songs to the album,
Speaker 4: and he made, you know, put not Like Us on there.
Speaker 4: I don't know, we just speaking in real time, but
Speaker 4: I believe it has something to do with this lawsuit.
Speaker 4: Why they probably was like, wait, hold up, because if
Speaker 4: this song is on the album and it's a lawsuit
Speaker 4: behind this song, it may affect your entire project.
Speaker 8: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child
Speaker 8: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador
Speaker 8: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with
Speaker 8: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just
Speaker 8: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President
Speaker 8: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy nom the United States
Speaker 8: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border
Speaker 8: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over
Speaker 8: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you
Speaker 8: are here illegally, your next you will be fine nearly
Speaker 8: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned and deported, you will
Speaker 8: never return. But if you register using our CBP home
Speaker 8: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.
Speaker 8: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,
Speaker 8: border and families will be protected.
