Whoo. 492 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: So I used to listen to a lot of Elijah 493 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: Mohammed cassettes. That's really fucking interesting. So I learned about history, 494 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 1: you know, not just through through the private with the 495 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: private schools, and I combine that with other things and 496 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: then um through through my favorite band or one of 497 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: my favorite bands, Chic and Rush. But through Rush, I 498 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 1: was introduced to iron Rand and objectivism her philosophy. So 499 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,239 Speaker 1: when I started reading iron Rand books and then you know, 500 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 1: getting into to the objectivist field, I became not just confident, 501 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: but but I found found ways to harness my arrogance, 502 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 1: my cockiness, and to be assertive, but to be more 503 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: of a businessman. All right, here's another thing that we 504 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,679 Speaker 1: have to talk about basketball at some point. Can we 505 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: start at the greatest basketball player ever? First? Who in 506 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: your opinion? Don't say Bill Russell?

But Larry Bird pushed how many championships 537 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,959 Speaker 1: out of the Celtics could he win? Four? Three? You see? 538 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 1: Come on, man, he only won three? And how much 539 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: did Magic win? He couldn't jump and he gave those 540 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: fancy jiggy niggas hell, Okay, he inspired and he took 541 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: the torch from Bill Russell. I'm not gonna say Bill 542 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: Russell was the greatest, but you know, don't say I'm not. 543 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: I'm not. But Larry Bird is the grace. Now, let's 544 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: just bypass all that because I want to get to 545 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: the fucking Knicks and I want to put the way 546 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: I had. No, no, no, no, I have to stop 547 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: you because I have to say, you mean to tell me, 548 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: gun to your head, you're gonna take one basketball player 549 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: to play against the fucking evils that be in the 550 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: world at their peak, at their peak. I've stolen this, 551 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: this concept from Bill Simmons because he writes it, talks 552 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: about this, and then not Michael Jordan wouldn't be the 553 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,479 Speaker 1: first person you picked. Michael Jordan. He's one of the greatest, 554 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: but the greatest, lay all right. See, the thing is 555 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: is that it's hard to argue because it's it's a 556 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: team sport. We're talking about individuals. Hard for you to 557 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: argue because you know, you know, black on black crime 558 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: is real, but you know white on white hate is 559 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: really really I'm giving fucking Star a fucking pound. Love 560 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: this fucking guy. You are a funny mother. No. The 561 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: reason why, here's my thing with don't deny the Mancasian 562 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: man dominance. Please white motherfucker's who only likes black mother 563 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: the funk that that's not the case. Here's here's why. 564 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: And I've talked about this before, not only on the show, 565 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: but like and I have regrets about it. But when 566 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: when when Bird was in the league. First of all, 567 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: I think there was factions like you were either a 568 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: Bird guy or a Magic guy, but I was also 569 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 1: but at the core week, let me finish at the 570 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: core for for my age two. So I'm a little younger. Okay, 571 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: so I'm a little bit younger. So like those guys 572 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: like I was nine and ten, When I was nine 573 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: and ten, when I was first introduced to them, So 574 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: I wasn't you might have been fucking twenty. I'm fifty 575 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: years old. I was seventy seventy, so you you were seventeen, 576 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: So your your point of view and your opinion, you 577 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: had already loved it, So that's a factor. But I 578 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: was such a Knicks fan and he fucked the Knicks 579 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: so bad all the time. And I like Dr J 580 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: more than I like Larry Bird, and Larry Bird shot 581 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: on Dr J. So I'm telling you this so as 582 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: my my wigged. If if you put if you put 583 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: Dr Jay's name in this conversation time, I'm just telling you, 584 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna smash your fucking coffee. Said what I'm saying 585 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: to J came out of the A B A. He 586 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: was flying with all the big afro, but he his 587 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: game was sub It was no I understand, Come on, man, 588 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: I understand. It wasn't he's evolved as those guys games. 589 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: It wasn't as evolved as those guys games. Absolutely, but 590 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: neither was neither was fucking like. That's why I'm saying, like, 591 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: you could take John Sally. I told us to John 592 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: Sally to his face. If John Sally had played in 593 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: the Bill Russell hor John Sally would be like Bill 594 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: Russell on fucking steroids. He looked at me like I 595 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: was crazy. I was like, John, you were playing against 596 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: white motherfucker's six ft six centers. My uncle Arnie was 597 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 1: a fucking center who played against Bill Russell. What are 598 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: you gonna bullshit? But look at Shays and he's I 599 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 1: mean it was the league was. He was predominantly white, okay, 600 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: and his his biggest competition was Will Chamberlain, who he 601 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: got the better of, but arguably Will anyway, any fucking way. 602 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: The point is is that I grew up hating Larry 603 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: because he shipped on my knicks and he shifted on Bernard. 604 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: Can't he just shipped all my knicks over and over 605 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: that I couldn't appreciate him while he was playing? Do 606 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: you understand? I imagine if Twitter existed when Larry Bird, 607 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: hate would be for that fucking, ugly fucking Unfortunately I 608 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: don't do hypotheticals, but I just want to say this 609 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: Libry Bird shut Michael Jordan down when in many cases, 610 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: what do you Kimmy, did you watch? Highlights shut him 611 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: down on many occasions. Now Michael Jordan. He was a 612 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: volume shooter. He was a ballhog. He did not learn 613 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: that at that time. Hang on, he did not learn 614 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: the science of fucking basketball until Bert was out of 615 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: the league. I agree. He was just a ballhog. He 616 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: was a jumping around three sixty Tomahawks, slamming nigga, and 617 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: he was he was a bad motherfucker's shut your mouth, YadA, 618 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: YadA YadA. But he couldn't do ship with Labry Bird. 619 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: Then Michael figured it out and cracked that ass. Well, 620 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: you know, somebody had to teach him the science of 621 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: fucking basketball, and Phil had a lot to do with it. Well, 622 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: Phil Jackson did be because Michael Jordan's first coach was 623 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: Doug Collins. Doug Collins, so Phil, Phil Jackson taught this 624 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: this guy the game that Abby Bird already knew. So 625 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: let's not play games. But who was better? You know, 626 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan is one of the greatest, but Birds the 627 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: Birds the best. Now, if we can fast forward to 628 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: the Knicks, in my opinion, somewhere after Bernard King, the 629 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: great Bernard King, big butt nigga from Brooklyn. Somewhere after 630 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: Bernard King, the Knicks became some type of fucking FuG 631 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: hip hop outfit. You know you had Oakley Mason, you 632 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: know you had Patrick Ewing and and and and it 633 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: became well, I'll get to speedy in a second, it 634 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 1: became a thug operation. And it's just like you know, 635 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: we tried in the nineties, man, the pat Riley teams. 636 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 1: But how could you not like that team? They were gooning. 637 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: They tell you why, I'll tell you why, because then 638 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you why. Go ahead. The Knicks that 639 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: won the last championship in nineteen seventy three had a 640 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: mixture of black and white players. Honestly, the Knicks became 641 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: too black. I'm thinking about too black, but how many white? 642 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 1: How do you bring in a black guy with fucking 643 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: corn rolls who choked his coach out of the West Coast. 644 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: He's not he's not. He doesn't have the finesse of 645 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: a Wolf Frazier. No, he doesn't understand the fact that 646 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,799 Speaker 1: this is the number one market and you have to 647 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 1: you have to have a swagger that that that people respect. 648 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 1: You don't come into town being a fucking goom.

Can you articulate to me about like 694 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,879 Speaker 1: sort of your the growth of that and the point 695 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 1: of view of that and just what what what what 696 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: what ignites you about that? Well, well, let's let' let's 697 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 1: separate black on black crime from these fucking drug addicts 698 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,839 Speaker 1: cops and in my opinion, they are drug addicts. High 699 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: an authority. Let's separate black on black crime because because 700 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: you know that that's a whole another myth that we 701 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 1: can we can deal with a little bit later. But 702 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: but but you know, the the the the numbers are 703 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: skewed and low level policing is what makes you know 704 00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: the numbers uh, you know, big good than what they 705 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: really are in terms of so cold black on black crime. 706 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,280 Speaker 1: But now, I used to be a big time cops supporter. 707 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: I applied to be a police officer three times in 708 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,839 Speaker 1: my life.

Shout out to my cousin, Sal. What up? 713 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: Sal used to listen. He listens to the eye and 714 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: wrap up a podcast. We're big in the penitent I 715 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: used to justify every fucking beating, choking, shooting of a 716 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 1: black and a Hispanic at the hands of a cop. Now, 717 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: why would you would you do it for fun? Because funny? 718 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 1: Because I wanted to be a cop. I wanted to 719 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: be a drug addict high an authority. And it's a 720 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 1: good thing that I was rejected because I would have 721 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 1: been a dirty cop. I'd be doing twenty years in 722 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: the penitentiary right now, some fucking drug deals going bad, 723 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: you know, shaking somebody down, shooting black kids in the back. 724 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,800 Speaker 1: I'm not laughing. I'm laughing at the way you say it. 725 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 1: Go ahead. I was a big time cops supporter. I'm 726 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,720 Speaker 1: fifty years of age now. After the Tree Von Martin 727 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: shooting at the hands of a wannabe cop, I just 728 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 1: I just started to reflect on where where where I 729 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 1: was was at and where I am at now, and 730 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 1: I feel for people who are losing their kids, even 731 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 1: though I have no biological kids at the hands of 732 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 1: drug addicts. These cops in this country should not be 733 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 1: carrying guns. That's number one. Now do we need cops, Yes, cops, 734 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: citizens on patrol. But their fucking mentality is not what 735 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:54,240 Speaker 1: it should be. They're arrogant. The way they approach people 736 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: is bullshit. This is America landa factory. Forefathers and the 737 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,720 Speaker 1: pilgrims came here so we can freak off and funk off. 738 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 1: Do drugs, fuck animals, beastiality. I'm not intact, but I'm 739 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: just saying America promotes all the all the ship, right, 740 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: Simon Gore. Right, So now, why do you not want 741 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: people to have fun if you're a cop? Why? Why mean? 742 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,280 Speaker 1: Because the cops are so fucking greedy, They've got quotas, 743 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 1: they're fucking greedy, all this low level policing. This piece 744 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 1: of ship, Patrick Lynch, you're you're an uneducated piece of ship. 745 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: You didn't go to school. He did it? Huh, he 746 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: didn't go to college. He was grandfathered in. He's got 747 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: the old mentality. He's a fucking low life and a loser. 748 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,799 Speaker 1: His teeth the fucking jagged. And I just said, hey, 749 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: you know, I feel for people's kids, people's father's daughters, 750 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:51,280 Speaker 1: cousins who are getting shot shot down like wild dogs. 751 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: Now what if? Now what? And and and the killings are 752 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:57,840 Speaker 1: being justified. I think it's disgusting. I think it's and 753 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 1: it hasn't just been going on. So I changed my position. 754 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,359 Speaker 1: I was wrong. If anybody remembers me being a big 755 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: time cops supporter, I was wrong. And they are out 756 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: of control. In England, Sir Robert Peel brought forth the 757 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:19,879 Speaker 1: Metropolitan Police Act which prevented cops or Bobby's as they 758 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: call them, or they used to call them Peelers, to 759 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: prevents them from carrying guns on patrol. That they have 760 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: guns firearms in the glove compartment of the vehicle if 761 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: they need it, and they have a special unit that 762 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: will come with guns if they need it. But but 763 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: if you get caught within a legal handgun, you're doing 764 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: hard fucking time. So that's that's what we need here. Yeah, 765 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:43,320 Speaker 1: I agree the guns are out. Any black or Hispanic 766 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 1: kid shooting at a fucking hip hop concert should do 767 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 1: ten years in the penitency ten years period. No if 768 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 1: fans are but fuck you, fuck your mother, bam that's it. 769 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,400 Speaker 1: Any time should have coped twenty years off the period. 770 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: So I agree, because the the can the shootings and 771 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 1: and it's it's coming from both days. But what do 772 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,840 Speaker 1: you say to the the people whill say, okay, but 773 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,439 Speaker 1: what about these cops that are being attacked before this year, 774 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: like before h Eric Garner, before Michael Brown, like you know, 775 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: just the like the violence and the pressure that cops 776 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,439 Speaker 1: are on from just doing the day to day job. 777 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 1: What do you say in defense of the cops?

Would you have sort of 1048 00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,400 Speaker 1: been the same personality if they had put to it? 1049 00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 1: Because you respect that, johnre Moore, I think that's a 1050 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:08,320 Speaker 1: good thing. I think I think my approach would have 1051 00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:11,359 Speaker 1: been different. Okay, my approach would have been different. But but 1052 00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 1: but watching the decline of heavy metal, because I was 1053 00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:16,759 Speaker 1: a big metal hit, big metal hit, yes, I mean 1054 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 1: dan Zig, fucking you know, Race r X. You know, 1055 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:22,440 Speaker 1: I don't know what the funk you're you know, I mean, 1056 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,319 Speaker 1: you know, man O War Panthera.

It 1060 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,319 Speaker 1: was a little too dirty. And you know, heavy metal 1061 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 1: was more you know, just my I'll just say my thing. Um, 1062 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 1: I think my approach would have would have been different, 1063 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:46,319 Speaker 1: but I am who I am, and I would have 1064 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 1: been critiquing heavy metal, you know, similar to how I 1065 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 1: similar not not the same way, but similar to how 1066 00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 1: I critiqued hip hop. I got you. But I had 1067 00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 1: a lot of genuine love for like Vivian Campbell, who 1068 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,200 Speaker 1: played with Ronnie James Dio, Jakie Lee who played with 1069 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:06,080 Speaker 1: Ozzy Osbourne. That was your yeah, you know, um um, 1070 00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:10,560 Speaker 1: the the the Smiths, you know, Morrissey I had. I 1071 00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:12,280 Speaker 1: had a lot a lot of respect for Steve Harris 1072 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,759 Speaker 1: who played bass for Iron Maiden, Judas Priest. But I 1073 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:18,759 Speaker 1: would have critiqued them, but I don't think that it 1074 00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:22,160 Speaker 1: would have needed the type of critiquing that hip hop 1075 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:25,759 Speaker 1: need needed, and kneeds. Hip hop is the genre of 1076 00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:31,319 Speaker 1: the babies leading the babies explain that, well, when you 1077 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 1: don't have a council, parameters and guidelines, you cannot classify 1078 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:40,360 Speaker 1: yourself as a fucking culture. And I say that respectfully. Again, 1079 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 1: I love what Public Enemy has done, boogie down productions, 1080 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 1: great efforts, awesome catalogs, But the separation of this whole 1081 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:55,319 Speaker 1: old school ship technology, that is what hurt hip hop 1082 00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:58,000 Speaker 1: in such a way, in such a way, and it's 1083 00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, it's almost like, you know, the 1084 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: young kids look at someone who brought knowledge into the 1085 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,800 Speaker 1: game during the Golden era, they looked down upon Its terrible. 1086 00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,439 Speaker 1: And that's that's why.

Hip Hop has got no power. 1153 01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,360 Speaker 1: It's powerless, not hip hop. But I'm saying in terms 1154 01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 1: of the vote, it was a younger vote, it was 1155 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,040 Speaker 1: a black vote. Am I wrong? A right?

Wouldn't you say that? 1160 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:49,480 Speaker 1: What don't you say everybody under forty has, at one 1161 01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:52,360 Speaker 1: point or another loved even if it was just one 1162 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:55,320 Speaker 1: rap song.
