I ain't gonna speak for 42 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: other people. I think it been one.

Man. 854 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:00,400 Speaker 1: The Russell he just recently came out in said that 855 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 1: he wasn't a fan of Lil Wayne. He didn't think 856 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 1: Little Wayne was talking about nothing. Then I heard Joe, 857 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,800 Speaker 1: Butdens had his take, man, And this is what I 858 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 1: say before you get your opinion. What was your Button's tape? 859 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 1: Joe Button said that he didn't really he had a 860 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 1: problem with Weezy for the longest because he wasn't saying 861 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: nothing right. But this is what I say, and I 862 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: do remember this, not trying to start no mess. I 863 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 1: do remember if I hear, if I recall correctly, because 864 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 1: I got a good friend that was over in the 865 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 1: same camp as Joe. He was on you know, they 866 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:32,800 Speaker 1: was slaughter House together. When Joe had the opportunity to 867 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 1: do a record with Wayne, he ran for it, ran 868 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 1: to it. You know, it was a big thing for him, right, 869 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,320 Speaker 1: So I don't know why his take would be different 870 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 1: now Now I didn't really care for his you know 871 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 1: thing at one time, you did because I tell you this, 872 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 1: Wayne has done stuff in the game that nobody has 873 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 1: done even to this day. I remember when it was 874 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,160 Speaker 1: fiscal I remember when they were selling records for fifteen, sixteen, 875 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: nineteen to twenty dollars. Wesy A baby saw a million 876 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 1: copies this first week Easy not shipped out. I'm talking 877 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 1: about sound skinned across the counter, a million copies. Wayne 878 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 1: was doing rock Star ship though, to this day, Wayne's 879 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,759 Speaker 1: doing rock Star stuff. So I don't think. I don't think, man, 880 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: no rapper right now in this game, Man, not even 881 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: Jay is he and nobody else can ever refute Wayne's greatness. 882 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 1: Dog Hey, Wayne is the most influential rapper dog ever 883 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:34,240 Speaker 1: of all time. Yeah, I think a lot of people. 884 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 2: I remember Jay Z said, like, you know, lyrically, he's 885 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:45,320 Speaker 2: like tyleague quality, you know, but they won't hold. 886 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 1: You know, and and and. 887 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 2: So he's saying he could easily be I guess more 888 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:59,239 Speaker 2: backpack hip hop. I think that's what he's interpreting, right, 889 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 2: more of of a. 890 00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 1: You know, a brother that covers all grounds of the 891 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:10,840 Speaker 1: people and the communities and and the good from the bad. 892 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:14,800 Speaker 1: You know. I hope I'm not giving brother tally itally 893 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 1: equality my room. No, this is what Jay said. He's 894 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:26,279 Speaker 1: said that it fun if lyrics so lyrically, I would 895 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 1: be to live qualite. You know.

It ain't no compared, there's no you know, 942 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: there's no wrong saying that. There's no wrong of him 943 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 1: pointing out something that he thinks that he thinks isn't 944 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,800 Speaker 1: serving what he would be looking for.

But 984 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 1: we don't just have that typical you know, people ain't 985 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 1: bold like that that they are. You know whatever, you know, 986 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 1: things can go left, you know what I'm saying, because 987 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:32,440 Speaker 1: it's just people just don't tolerate disrespect. It's not the 988 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:33,319 Speaker 1: race is one thing. 989 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:37,319 Speaker 2: People don't tolerate disrespect where I'm front, I think that's 990 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:39,879 Speaker 2: more than just a race thing, know what I'm saying. 991 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,600 Speaker 1: So that that gives a little bit more clarity on 992 00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,440 Speaker 1: what Wayne was saying. I think sometimes people listen to 993 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 1: people and don't really listen in detail to what they're saying. Right, 994 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:51,719 Speaker 1: Like Wayne said, you know, he said, hey man, and 995 00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,840 Speaker 1: he tells that story all the time about how a 996 00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 1: white police officer saved his life. 997 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 2: It did so his his view of life is different 998 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 2: than the peoples. That don't mean that they don't exist. 999 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,359 Speaker 1: Exactly. You know, he has this viewpoint. And he said, 1000 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 1: you know, we are all amalgamation of our experiences, of 1001 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 1: our individual experiences. Right. I'm originally from Cleveland, Ohio. I 1002 00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 1: came out here to California when I was seventeen years old. Right, 1003 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: I'm an old man now, but even so I'm still 1004 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:24,880 Speaker 1: a kid from Cleveland, Ohio. Just because I've been in 1005 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:30,279 Speaker 1: LA for thirty sumi years. Right for forty years. Right, 1006 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean that I don't have that perspective of 1007 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 1: being a Midwest cat no more. I'm very much man 1008 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:40,399 Speaker 1: in tune with how racist this world can be. I'm 1009 00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 1: very much in tune with poverty. I'm very much in 1010 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,839 Speaker 1: tune with experiences some real ghetto shit, right, because being 1011 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 1: in the ghetto in Cleveland, being the ghetto in New 1012 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,840 Speaker 1: Orleans is a way different experience than being in the 1013 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:57,080 Speaker 1: ghetto in at Los Angeles. It's just different, right. We mean, 1014 00:54:57,200 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 1: you have seen the level of priverty dog that these 1015 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 1: cats probably are not a customed to. And that don't 1016 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:04,880 Speaker 1: mean they don't have property out here. But it's a 1017 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:07,799 Speaker 1: lot different, man, when you got twenty four to seven sunshine, 1018 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:10,920 Speaker 1: hell lit Bailly rain out here, and you do have 1019 00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 1: some resources out here to get to some things where 1020 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 1: you may have it, you may not have it in 1021 00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:19,680 Speaker 1: Cleveland or Howard, New Orleans. I feel that, you know, 1022 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 1: I feel that, Yeah, I think you know you're being 1023 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,359 Speaker 1: where you're from and being able to go to where 1024 00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:29,279 Speaker 1: you are and make sure my yourself. I think that 1025 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:33,520 Speaker 1: is a real life testimony in itself. You know, I 1026 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 1: love hip hop. I'm a hip hop baby.
