1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: We're not even conditioned for niggas to have this type

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: of money.

3
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 2: So the way we act is just awful impulse.

4
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 1: If we really formulate a group and be like, look,

5
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: you take all the money you spend here, You take

6
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: all the money you spend here.

7
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 2: Not only that the black motherfucker has the.

8
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 1: Same shit they like, Nigga, I'm not paying three hundred

9
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: and fifty dollars of his sweatshirt.

10
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:23,959
Speaker 2: This shit should be forty.

11
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:26,639
Speaker 1: You don't know, Louis, you're gonna go in here and

12
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: spend a thousand dollars on the shirt because who said

13
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: that this motherfucker was worth a thousand? This is what

14
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 1: you see, This is what you conditioned to. So we

15
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: have to wipe this whole narrative and the way we

16
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: think on a certain situations on what's hot, what's elevating,

17
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 1: what's morally making you progress, and then we're gonna literally

18
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 1: find ourselves in a better state of mind.

19
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 3: I think that's the taket of generation to do it, though,

20
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 3: because you think about those brands you just name with

21
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 3: Louis Vauton or Rolex, these are brands that have been

22
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 3: around for hundreds of years, have been able to prosper

23
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 3: for hundreds of years. And then that branding is something

24
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 3: that you see and you automated, automatically attached to being wealthy,

25
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 3: or you automatically attached to being you know, well off.

26
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 3: You don't have those status symbols amongst us, like the.

27
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 2: Thing we don't have.

28
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 3: I don't even think I can name one thing that

29
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 3: a black man has created and owned that you can

30
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 3: have on you or with you that make you pla

31
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 3: oh he got a whatever, Oh he got some corn bread.

32
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 2: From Uncle Rick.

33
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 3: Money off white, I mean, but still that was that

34
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 3: was connected to a brand that was already established. So

35
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 3: for us to be able to do it without getting that,

36
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, that extra hand that the

37
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 3: big brother hand to come and say, hey, give me that,

38
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, that's what It's going to

39
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 3: take a while.

40
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 2: I believe, and I think it is here, but he

41
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 2: to add on his. It's in my head, but see

42
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 2: to add on his.

43
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: We use that materialisty like he said, we put that

44
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: value on the roll legs and the lure be like, okay,

45
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: we made it. Instead that are saying, spiritually, cordially, what's

46
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: making it to us? Because that were putting our status

47
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: on making it when peace can be mean you made it,

48
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: your friend in a better state of mind, Mean you

49
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 1: made it. You're thinking you're going outside Joe, your state

50
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: of mind and the way you're supposed to live.

51
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: And this is value and this is validation to everybody else.

52
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 4: You know what made me stop buying that ship? I

53
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 4: actually google who these people were, look him up. Some

54
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 4: terrible looking motherfuckers. I'm telling you, once you see the chest,

55
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 4: the names you putting on your body, you don't really

56
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 4: rethink that ship. Why would you give a fuck what

57
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 4: the old white man thinks cool?

58
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 2: Why?

59
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 5: That's what Dame Dash told us. I won't name a designer,

60
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 5: but he talking about the designer that's really popular. He

61
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 5: was like, Yo, I know that he's a bad person,

62
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 5: a terrible person. He's like so when ask when somebody

63
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 5: raps about him, you got to question them, right because

64
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 5: it's like like he's like this, and he's like yeah,

65
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 5: and they know and they know he's a bad person.

66
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 5: Like you know what I'm saying, So like, yo, I

67
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 5: know these people personally, like they're like real devil.

68
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 6: But I want to talk about that. You said it

69
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 6: might take a generation in DC. You said the same thing.

70
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 6: All we in the midst of that generation, right, Because

71
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 6: if we're supposed to be what I'm saying, when you

72
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 6: look at if we're talking about just the entertainment space,

73
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 6: especially in your space. When I look at y'all and

74
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 6: I look at what y'all doing with eighty five media,

75
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 6: I'm watching it firsthand. When I look at like we

76
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 6: were backstage and we're talking about this is a family,

77
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 6: I'm looking at who y'all hiring. This is not the

78
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 6: example this is now being celebrated. Yeah, Netflix recognized it,

79
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 6: but the community recognized it for right years. Right, I'm

80
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 6: looking at early Lesion, same right in the financial space.

81
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 6: Shout out to Charlamage again and Black Fact what they're

82
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 6: doing in the pocket, It's like, you know, it's happening

83
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 6: within the midst of it. We just got to keep

84
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 6: leading these examples and change the mindset of the people

85
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 6: as we're doing it. So when y'all, when y'all perform, right,

86
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 6: Because when I look at you, I never looked like yo,

87
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 6: these guys are comedians. I first took at like, yo,

88
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 6: these guys are brilliant. They're brilliant because what they do

89
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 6: is impossible. Are y'all going into these spaces with that

90
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 6: kind of said thought, like we represent the generation that

91
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 6: we're talking about right now.

92
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 4: Okay, even look at this platform right here, Look at

93
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 4: all the things you've been able to do our your

94
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 4: leision right now. Think of how much further ahead we'd

95
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 4: be if we came from if your dad was a

96
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 4: camera man for thirty years, or if your dad was

97
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 4: a producer for thirty years, or your mom was the

98
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 4: secretariat Warner Brothers. Like if we were grandfather, then we'd

99
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 4: be billionaire. Fact, like you're said with the generation and change,

100
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 4: were the first generation with that was a blueprints because

101
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 4: we start this started out as homeboys making jokes on

102
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 4: a show, right, we didn't know that it was We

103
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 4: didn't know that we would have to accept the responsibility

104
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 4: of having to create our own media company. Like when

105
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 4: we were sitting there and we were going out, we

106
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 4: were meeting with these people like yeah, we want to

107
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 4: take it on the road, we want to do this,

108
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 4: we want to do this, and they were like, how.

109
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: It'll never work.

110
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 4: Like those were literally the worst of these same people

111
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 4: who come back, it's great.

112
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: Ally, I can't I'm talking abys.

113
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 4: I'm who gonna help us, help us. We can't do

114
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: this ship by ourself. We don't have the knowledge of

115
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 4: if we were just sitting here. We don't know how

116
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 4: to put that camera right there.

117
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 1: But we're the one that take the risk for to

118
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: be the blueprint exactly right, you see what I'm saying,

119
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: But also we observed because we observe y'all as well,

120
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: where it's like, okay, it does work.

121
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 2: But see, this is what goes back to what I

122
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 2: said earlier.

123
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: If we just stop hating on one another and really

124
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: say what could we do together?

125
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 2: Or believe in me. I don't know what the fuck

126
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 2: I'm getting myself into.

127
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: When you said you believe in the little brother, I

128
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: ain't even know what the fuck this was. And then

129
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: once I saw the bigger picture, it took me. It

130
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: took me probably three three and a half years, even

131
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 1: after we don pop off for me to really put

132
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: my stamp on it, because I had to sit back

133
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: and I was like, but we got a lot of people, Hold,

134
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: look this motherfucker go to work here every day.

135
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 2: Okay, this is bigger than how I perceive it.

136
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: Now I'm looking at it how they looking at it,

137
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: and I'm looking at how everybody else is looking at it.

138
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 2: And I'm like, hmm, what can I do to enhance this?

139
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 1: And then once I start, I said, you know what,

140
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 1: this is why I appreciate y'all because y'all bring a

141
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: certain energy. Well, nigga has to be you gotta pick

142
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: up or you're gonna find out you slack it.

143
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 2: And when you slack and you're like, okay, I'm the problem.

144
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: And then once I see I'm the problem, it's like,

145
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: how can I enhance this situation and make it better

146
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: amongst people who bring in that same type of energy.

147
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 2: What did it for me? What it's like.

148
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 4: Seeing everybody around us right not have to go to work?

149
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 2: Right? Not have to go you know what I mean?

150
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 2: Like this is your job? Now?

151
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 4: When I saw our friends quitting their job, then I

152
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 4: knew I was like, this is this is really something

153
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 4: because that was just a whole different feeling that I

154
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 4: never even thought, like you know, of course, and this

155
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 4: ship when you're like I quit my job, I do

156
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 4: this other people like and my daughter camera man, he
