He might he's on a 146 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: record I believe. Also, yeah, I think they have a 147 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: record together that was like on like the blogs back 148 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: in the day. Yeah, but he also wrote a Drake 149 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: record back at that time too. And yeah, dear homeboy 150 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: Sam Man, which is that your guy? You know?

It's like it's like going 154 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: inside someone's brain and just listening to them think on 155 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: a record like He's it's a he's awesome. You know. 156 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: We always get these albums uh that that that are compilations, right, 157 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: and and you know, I think cal it is someone 158 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: who's done a good a good job of putting albums 159 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: together and then also at times maybe maybe not so 160 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: good of a job. You know. I mean, obviously it's 161 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: everything subjective, but how hard is it to do something 162 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: like this and make it cohesive? In this case, it 163 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: was very easy because as I picked artists who made sense, 164 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: so you're not trying to get one artist to agree 165 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: to make the record and then another artist on a 166 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: different song. Who's gonna not gonna pick anything similar to 167 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: what this other artist was feeling. So as a result, 168 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: so really like I was able to sort of use 169 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: my ear and have that work for all the artists 170 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: that were selected. If I had tried to get too crazy, 171 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: ultimately I would have had like this, this, this disconnect. 172 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: The least connected record is probably the Homeboy sam Man record, 173 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: which is why I put it last. That's just stylistically, 174 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: it's just he's he's in his own back altogether. It's 175 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: not like I don't think you hear it and you go, 176 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: why is this year? But I think it's enough. You know. 177 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: My man Quartermain was to a rough of the album 178 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: and he was like, I don't know if this fits. 179 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: And while I disagreed on some level and I wanted 180 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: on the album, I took his advice that it didn't 181 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: fit in the middle of the project and I ended 182 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 1: up moving in along and now I like where it is. 183 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: But to me, Kevi, it's like, hopefully you know what 184 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: ends up coming across in this project is there are 185 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: people out there like, yeah, I can't fucking stand Rosenberg. 186 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: That guy sucks fuck him, Culture Vulture, piece of shit. 187 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: But you know, what. He put a nice album together. 188 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: He's got a good ear. This ship is cohesive, like 189 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 1: because that's that's honestly, that's my biggest source of pride 190 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: in it is that I just think it's like, this 191 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: does not sound like a soundtrack where you're like, why 192 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: is that song there? I think it you would believe 193 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 1: these artists were in some level of communication or right 194 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: right right, right right. Well, that's that's I think that's 195 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: the hardest part about doing the project like this is 196 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: like usually these types of projects, we love songs off 197 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: of them, but to like just press playing right out 198 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: like you know, there's there's like back in the day, 199 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: there was like the sound bombings, and there was there. 200 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: There has been great examples of that, but I feel 201 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: like lately we haven't really had a shining example, especially 202 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: when it comes to you know, the Boom bab shit. 203 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: I kind of look at every Static selected album is 204 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: a cohesive piece, you know, but he's the producer on them, 205 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: and he doesn't He's probably the best at putting albums 206 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: together that flow. And you know, again Static is an artist. 207 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 1: He actually is making the music. But as far as 208 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 1: just all which is both more impressive and also so a, 209 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: he's much more talented than me, of course, but also 210 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: he's got an easier task in terms of forming it 211 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: because it's his music. Yeah, he's making the beats, so 212 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: he knows. Yeah exactly. Yeah, yeah, you mentioned. I was 213 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: gonna say you mentioned the culture vulture thing. Do you 214 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: did you see the meme that they posted on Twitter? 215 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: And it was me and you and Adam twenty two 216 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: and Vlad. Someone posted like a meme of all four 217 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: of our photos and they said this is hip hop media. 218 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 1: Yeah yoo. That was fucking hilarious. They got the worst 219 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: photo of me ever. It was. I was like, oh, 220 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 1: God's worst. Not only was not only were was it 221 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: the idea of the photo, but then a bad picture 222 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: on top of it. My main issue that I took 223 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 1: with that was just like, I know there are people 224 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 1: who don't like me. I know I've said things that 225 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: people hold on to and rather thinking of something that 226 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: you may have done that they liked, or ten times 227 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:32,719 Speaker 1: when that you did something they may have liked, they 228 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: remember that thing that made them not like you. But 229 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: like it was just such a lazy assessment, yo, Like 230 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: that was just of course I'll take you and I 231 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: being thrown in a category together because they're actually legitimate 232 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: similarities you could point to right right, right, right right, 233 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: And I don't know what their relationships are, so I 234 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: don't want to put you in a bad spot, but 235 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: where you'd get to comparing us to Adam twenty two 236 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: and Vlad and I get Adam twenty two and Vlad 237 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 1: going together because they get people to say some semi incriminating, 238 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: crazy shit like I get the whole op thing, but 239 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: you and I like two kind of DJ nerds right 240 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: right well, respectful of the music and culture. I just 241 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: don't That was such to me. That was a lazy 242 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: but very funny. It was funny. I just loved everyone 243 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,599 Speaker 1: like was like defending it. I feel like everyone was 244 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: defending you and me on Twitter. It was so funny. 245 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: I was like, we got we got some defense for sure, 246 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: ye not these guys. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was pretty funny. 247 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: It was pretty funny. Man. How's uh? You know it's 248 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: crazy because for people who don't know, man, you legitimately 249 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 1: do two full radio shows every day, which is extremely impressive, 250 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: and it also has to be very taxing for your bandwidth, 251 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: Like how how how hard is that? Man? Because I know, 252 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: just doing a four hour morning show alone's got to 253 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, at the end of it. You know, for 254 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: people think that we just sit in front of a mic, 255 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: but it is, you know, we we have to be 256 00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: mentally in the game, you know what I mean. And 257 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: you got to do that twice. How do you deal 258 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: with that? Man? Well, it is tiring and the bandwidth 259 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: thing is hard, and by the end of it you 260 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: can feel very finished. But I don't know. I try 261 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: to go to bed relatively early. I try to be 262 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: mostly healthy, right, you know, I'm not a big drugs 263 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: or alcohol guy. But although definitely during COVID it definitely 264 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: picked my my alcohol on the weekend definitely picked up, 265 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: of course, But you know, I'm very stone sober during 266 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: the week. I try to eat my salads all week long. 267 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: I try to catch naps when I can. You know, 268 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: I have ups and downs when it comes to the gym, 269 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: but you know, and listen. I also it's one of 270 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: the times, like I'm I'm I'm only able to do 271 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: both shows because I'm not the first mic on either show. True, 272 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: so I can sit back at times. And it's also 273 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: a good way to learn when to shut up, you know, 274 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: because that was a big part of radio that I 275 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: didn't understand for a really long time. I sit back 276 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: now way more than I used to. So like you 277 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: might hear a segment on with Ebro and Laura in 278 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: the morning where I don't say that much. Now I 279 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: sort of learned to have the spots where like, they 280 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 1: don't need my voice here, It's not gonna what am 281 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: I adding? So like, you know, Ebro and Laura are 282 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: talking about something that that they're both making an impact 283 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: on it. It's it's really effective. Am I going to 284 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: add to this? Or in this moment if I if 285 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: I add, is it at best not going to add 286 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: that much or at worst it's going to be like, 287 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: shut up, white boy, we didn't even need your take 288 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: on this. That's fair. So there and there's and obviously 289 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: there are conversations where that is true too. And you know, 290 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: I already had the time where I was like everyone 291 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: needs to hear my voice. Yes, I mean you have. 292 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: You're you're a very opinionated guy. Man, I'm an opinionated guy, 293 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: and I am the first person to try to teach 294 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: white people sometimes guess what, shut up? People don't need 295 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: to hear your voice fuck up. It's not every day. 296 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: Sometimes I really want it. I'm like, no, no, I 297 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: can contribute. This is somewhat useful, trust me, you know, 298 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: Like we have certain conversations, I'm like, well, you know, 299 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: when we had our COVID conversations and vaccine conversations, I 300 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: was quick away and be like, listen, I'm here to 301 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: tell people of the world if this is a plot 302 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: to hurt black people, which is a reasonable thought to have, right, 303 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: if that is true. I just want you to know 304 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: all the white people I know are taking it right. 305 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: We're all we're all in it together. Yeah, on this one. 306 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: So there, my voice was valuable. I can tell you 307 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: my experience. But in some situations, you know, and sometimes 308 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: as an ally my voice is useful. Sometimes it's not, 309 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: you know. And then on the case show, yo, soon 310 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: as we get in the subject and I'm like, I 311 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: just don't have a ton to contribute here, and I 312 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: don't want to be the person who's talking to how 313 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: my voice heard. I already have a lot of time 314 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 1: to talk right right right, you know. And then sometimes 315 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: they tell me, oh, we need to hear from you more, 316 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: you know, like, hey, we know you're not that into baseball. 317 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: But some of our audience, you're the reason they're here, 318 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: and if you don't talk about baseball, they're really not 319 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: going to give a fuck, right, So finding that balance 320 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: can be can be hard, but shit, sometimes you just 321 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: need to sit back and rest and well and then 322 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: you're also you also had a brief stint as the 323 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: twenty four to seven champion.

People know 352 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: who's had it. And And the craziest part about that 353 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: was that I thought it was gonna maybe be a thing. 354 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: I'd get an opportunity at the pay per view beforehand, 355 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: and then things were crazy and they're talk gonna happen. 356 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, cool, and I'm like I don't 357 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: think this is ever gonna happen, to be honest with you, 358 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,640 Speaker 1: so whatever, and then I get to the Royal Rumble 359 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 1: kickoff show and we're talking and they're like, hey, so 360 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: we're not gonna have time to get it on the 361 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: kickoff show.

I did 381 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: the job, but like I did not do it the 382 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: way I was exactly supposed to on either account of 383 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: any of the things I did. And to think about 384 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: that they do it live all the time, like you 385 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 1: have one shot. Yeah, you got an idea.

Dude 397 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: is so strong, Our Truth could have done anything he wanted. 398 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: Of course, he could have kicked out live back to 399 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 1: the desk. I mean, like he is, he's an athlete. 400 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: You know, you know how old our Truth is. I 401 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: assume he's old as shit because he has been around 402 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 1: Fever forever. But he just he just looks great. He's 403 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: got to be fifty. He's like fifty years old. Oh, yes, 404 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: say he's gotta be fifty. He's got to be fifty. Yeah. 405 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: When he wraps, he when he wraps, he sounds like 406 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: he's fifty. So I would assume fifty. You're an asshole, assle. 407 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: He looks dirty, but he raps, he's Yay, he's fifty 408 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: for sure. Yo. So you know, the one thing I 409 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: wanted to I wanted to get your take on something 410 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: that's obviously extremely controversial and polarizing at the moment, because 411 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: I've spoken with people from both sides, and I wanted 412 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: to kind of, you know, get your understanding of, uh, 413 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: what's going on, you know, in Israel and Palestine, because 414 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: you know, I've talked to artists like Belly and you know, 415 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: certain people who are extremely passionate, you know, on the 416 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: Palestinian side, and I've talked to some of my Jewish friends, 417 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: and you know, I always stay away from subjects that 418 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 1: I don't fully understand. And I think I might have 419 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: saw you weigh in on what Andrew Yank said. Maybe 420 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,360 Speaker 1: I'm wrong on that. Yeah. So you know, for people 421 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: who don't know you're Jewish, what are your I guess 422 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: kind of what's your consensus or your thoughts about about 423 00:22:54,840 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: everything that's going on? Man, So this is an incredibly 424 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: uh complicated subject, and I'm not I'm not saying that 425 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: just like in a light generic way. You know. It's 426 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 1: a subject that's sort of like you know, dominated conversation 427 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: in my house, my whole life, you know, and like 428 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: I I went to Israel for the first time when 429 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: I was four years old. Israel is super important to 430 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: my family and to all Jews. However, uh, you know, 431 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: decency and and and and empathy and critical thinking can 432 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: can allow us to have a lot of love for 433 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: a place and still be critical. I Am not going 434 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: to oversimplify the entire thing, because the truth is Palestinians 435 00:23:53,840 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: have been marginalized. They've been in many situations just like garbage, 436 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: like just not treated in a in a humane way, 437 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 1: and it's it's sickening and upsetting and simultaneously, you know, Israel, 438 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: Israel's existence is important to the Jewish people, and there's 439 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,719 Speaker 1: some people who don't agree with that inherently. They do 440 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: not believe Israel should should exist that that is a 441 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: real faction of people that exists. Unfortunately Hamas is in 442 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: that category. Right. So you have these people who have 443 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: been caught in a terrible position, the Palestinian people, and 444 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: we had opportunities at peace in the past with Robbin 445 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: and Arafat which were destroyed. And you know, now you 446 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: have a really complex circumstance. But the bottom line is this. 447 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: I hold the Israeli government to a high standard because 448 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: that's number one, because of the the the money, the power, 449 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 1: the organization, the US backing, and also because I'm Jewish 450 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 1: and and I believe in a Jewish state. So I 451 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: hold in my sense, my people, if you will, to 452 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: a standard. I'm not some person who believes you just 453 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: wave the flag of your country blindly or whoever willy 454 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: nilly like. I know this sounds silly and crude, but 455 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 1: I always go back to sports, and I know you're 456 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: a sports fan, Cami. So I love the Washington football 457 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: team so much. I hate the owner. I publicly tell 458 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: everyone I hate the owner. I want him to sell 459 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 1: the team. I don't want it to have anything to 460 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: do with the team. I first suggested and demanded the 461 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 1: name be changed like thirteen years ago or something on camera. 462 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: That was the first time publicly I still love the team. 463 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 1: I still rooted for the team while literally not wanting 464 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: them to even have their name. Sort of look at 465 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: the way we deal with our countries of origin the 466 00:25:55,400 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: same way. Just because you love Israel and see it's 467 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 1: existence as important does not mean you have to believe 468 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: in everything they do. And and also just because you're 469 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: a Palestinian does not mean that you do or should 470 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: ride with hamas right. So it's a it's a it's 471 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: a really bad situation. I think that Netsan Yahoo has 472 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: been generally terrible and generally I've some of my Jewish 473 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 1: friends have compared him to like if Trump won over there, 474 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: like he's extremely right wing, extremely He's only got right 475 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,919 Speaker 1: wing over the years, right because became a winning thing 476 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: because we're seeing this whole like real real white nationalism 477 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: all across the world, and he's written with going further 478 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: right as the years have gone on. So you know, 479 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: how could if I if I felt the way I 480 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: felt about Trump, which was that he was an absolute 481 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 1: nightmare and the worst, and guess what, you can still 482 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 1: love America, by the way, and still feel that way, Yes, 483 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: exactly right. And now I understand it's complicated for Jews though, 484 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:12,239 Speaker 1: right because when we start hearing Israel get criticized, the 485 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: history of the Jewish people isn't the same history as 486 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: a court of America one hundred percent. Yeah, America's like 487 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: America's like the white people of countries. Right, it's going 488 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: to be all right, Yeah. I think that the thing 489 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: that's that's that's hard is like, obviously, what I've noticed 490 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: is anyone who has spoke out against the actions of 491 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: the Israeli government, it seems as if they get labeled 492 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:38,159 Speaker 1: right away as being an anti Semitic person. Well, the 493 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: thing is you look at each individual's person separately. That's fair. 494 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: But I mean I've seen I've seen, like I think 495 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: Dua Lipa they're trying to call her, you know, people 496 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 1: who have just made statements that's saying, you know, essentially, hey, 497 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 1: what's going on is wrong. It seems like that there's 498 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: there's like a narrative that goes right away on Twitter 499 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: or you know that these people are quote unquote anti Semitic. 500 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: And I think that everyone can be you know, critical 501 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 1: of you know, like you said, you could be critical 502 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: of a country or government's actions and still be with 503 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: the Jewish people, you know what I mean? And you know, 504 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: so I just think that. I just think it's important. 505 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: I just think it's important to people to say that, like, 506 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: because let me explain. Let me explain the other start, 507 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,719 Speaker 1: even though I a lot of Jews hate me, because 508 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: I'm so, I care deeply about the well being of Palestinians. 509 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 1: And oh and by the way, I have someone who 510 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: I know in the music industry. I'll tell you off 511 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: the camera. I said, yeah, I was like, I don't 512 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: think I think Rosenberg system to Andrew Gang, they were like, 513 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: Rosenberg is a self hating Jew, and I was like, 514 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, like that's not true. But oh right, I'll 515 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: tell you. You might know the person. I'll tell you 516 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: who it is later, but not on camera. So exactly, 517 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: I get self hating Jew because I care about the 518 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: well being of Palestinians. But on the flip side of 519 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: that coin, because this is what this is what being 520 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: a measured, thoughtful person involved. Right as a Jew, when 521 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: you see a lot of people just putting up free Palestine, 522 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: and even though you agree with that sentiment, if you 523 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: know the person who posted that doesn't know shit about 524 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: the subject. It is uncomfortable, so it's hard to explain. 525 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: And then and then if you add even more to 526 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: that that you've also seen that person say something else 527 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: that seems a little you might start to be like, well, 528 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: do you really care about Palestine? And do you hate Jews? 529 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: Because let's not get a twist to people hate Jews 530 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: out here, so anti Semiticism is real. We're seeing in 531 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 1: the street, we see it in real look. So it's 532 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: a very uncomfortable thing to be honest, especially being someone 533 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: who thinks the Israeli government is wrong, who wants there 534 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: to be a peaceful solution. And I have Jews who 535 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: come after me and say I'm a self hater, and 536 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: then I have people on the other side who say 537 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: I'm a Zionist monster. It doesn't care. And the truth 538 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: is I deeply care about both. That's how I was raised. 539 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: You know that, that is what my my family evolved. 540 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 1: My dad used to be militant pro Israel, militant in 541 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: a time when it sends to be such. Things have 542 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: evolved and now the state of Israel's in a different place. 543 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: So you know, it's super uncomfortable but if you can't 544 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: be someone who's able to acknowledge that the Israeli government 545 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: is fucked up and that Harmas is fucked up. If 546 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: you're not able to acknowledge those things as possible, I 547 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: don't think we can have a reasonable conversation. That's fair, man. Well, yeah, 548 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: I just wanted to get your take because, like I said, 549 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: I know you're a very measured dude, and uh, you know, 550 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: I think that it's important that, like you said, I 551 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: think the way you just explained it is how everyone should. 552 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: That's why I having rush to say anything on it, 553 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: because I'm like, look, you know what, I don't fully 554 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: understand the entire history of what's going on, so, you know, 555 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: but not enough people will to admit that. They just 556 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: want to jump in on the conversation. And I get it. 557 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: You want to stand next to, you know, people that's 558 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: in a really bad shape and being maligned. I understand that. 559 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: But you should do the research also, and you should 560 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: understand why Jews care about Israel in the first place. Right, 561 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: So even if the government's fucked up and wrong you do, 562 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: you should understand why you feel it's so important to 563 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: have Israel in existence. You know, and by the way, 564 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: just to say the people that the self hate thing, 565 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: it's like, Yo, my name is Rosenberg, and I am 566 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 1: a public personality who has always openly talked about being Jewish, 567 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: always proudly, always. Hey, the whole entire tagline of the 568 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: morning show was a Puerto Rican and a Jew walking 569 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: to a radio station, exactly always labeled Jewish ju ju 570 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: juju ju, And I'm proud of it for sure. Anybody 571 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: who would ever fix their lips to say I'm self hating, like, 572 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: it's so absurd. When I'm a public front facing front 573 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: lines out there, I get called I have dealt with 574 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: anti Semitism regularly since the internet has even been a thing. Yes, 575 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: So it's so frustrating when you hear that because it's like, well, 576 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 1: so my opinion is different on Israel. And by the way, 577 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: have you even been to Israel? Right? Right? That's interested 578 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: with my dad. So my dad had these takes on 579 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: Israel and these thoughts, and like he's arguing with people 580 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: who Israel so important to them, but they've never been 581 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: My dad's been like forty fifty times. That's really where 582 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: he spent time. And he has to argue with people 583 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: who love Israel in theory, and he's like, no, no no, 584 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 1: I love the actual place like I love the place. Listen, 585 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: we got about four minutes left before you got to 586 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: hop on the air. I wanted to ask you this 587 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: because I've evolved over the years when it comes to 588 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 1: I like to call it radio gang banging. You know 589 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I used to be one of these 590 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: guys who would, uh, whatever radio station I was on, 591 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: it was fuck the other station, fuck the other DJs. 592 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: It was yeah, exactly, And obviously, Hot and Power in 593 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: New York is the quintessential radio beef always, even when 594 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: I feel like it's calming down this past week or 595 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: so with the the funk flex bringing up the old, 596 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: but it's I bring it up because I'm really close 597 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: with Charlemagne. I'm really close with you. Charlemagne is somebody 598 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: who's done so much for my career as far as Yeah, 599 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: he's a lot for me personally. And both of you 600 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: guys are amazing people. I know both of you guys, 601 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: but what like y'all just don't fuck with each other, 602 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: like what I understand that, Like, you know, to help 603 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: me understand, will there ever be a conversation between you 604 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: two or or you know, because I think at the 605 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: end of the day, we've definitely had conversations. We've definitely 606 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: had personal, in person, real life conversations. I would go 607 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: as far as saying we even at a period where 608 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: we were like cordial because we ran into each other 609 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: a bunch of times without speaking on the greater Charlemagne issues, right, 610 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: and the allegations and the things that Kwame Brown's been 611 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: talking about. Although I sometimes cannot understand how good he's 612 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: been a navigating those things. It's it's almost mind blowing. 613 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: You do almost believe an Illuminati, but removing that I 614 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: actually have tried on multiple occasions. I know this sounds crazy, 615 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: like I really did reach out on multiple occasions for 616 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: causes bigger than us, for us to come together, and 617 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: he shpited on me. So at that point I no 618 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,280 Speaker 1: longer wish it will I definitely did at some point. 619 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:15,959 Speaker 1: I've went through a lot of stuff in my life 620 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. I no longer spend 621 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: time thinking about him in that way. But I will 622 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: tell you pre twenty sixteen election, I reached out about 623 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: us getting together getting together for voting stuff because I 624 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: thought it would make a big impact to see us 625 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 1: all come together and no interest. You know. Ebro ran 626 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: into him at a Colin Kaepernick thing. Ebro was like, 627 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: let's take a picture together. This is for CAP's cause 628 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: he wouldn't do it, you know, And then he'll turn 629 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: around and flip the story later. But that's the reality, 630 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, I don't spend time thinking about him 631 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: in a negative way anymore. With regards to me personally, 632 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. I don't know him. I think 633 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 1: there's a lot of shit that I disagree you with, 634 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: you know, fundamentally. I was watching an episode of Sam 635 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: Jay's news show. She was talking to this black conservative 636 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: about why they're Republicans and the two things they mentioned. 637 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 1: They were like, well, I don't want to candidate who says, 638 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 1: if you're not voting for me, you're not black. And 639 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: I don't want a candidate who's like if I need 640 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: to have hot sauce in my bag. I was like, damn. 641 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 1: Both those things came from breakfast club interviews. Both reasons 642 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 1: that you hate the Democrats came from breakfast club interviews. 643 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 1: What the fuck are y'all doing? Yeah, but that's not 644 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: their fault that those things were said, Oh, it's never 645 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: their fault, it's never to be. You can't put that 646 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: on that way. It just ends up that way that 647 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris ended up looking bad for the twupot gap, 648 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: and it just was coincidence that Biden got out of 649 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 1: swords and then he said something dumb and Hillary Clinton 650 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: might in fact be from Arkansas and keep sauce in 651 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 1: her back. But I'm just saying those things all happen.
