Transcript

You sold me out, uh, for chicken change. Yes, you did. Told me you did. You had it all arranged. You had me down, and that's the fact. And now you pump. You gotta get ready. Big payback. Hey, what up, y'all? Welcome back to the Play Alive podcast. I got guests in the building. It's your girl key right here. What up, world? Over here on this side. I got Mama solo over here. What's up? So, we gonna do an episode we're supposed to do in February for Black History Month. But I lost my voice, and a lot of things happened. I just couldn't get to it. So we here today with it, and we back. 1973 song from the Godfather of Soul, soul brother number one, Mister Dynamite. Mister, please, please. And the hardest working man in show business, the great James Brown. Yes, sir. Rest in peace, man. Rest in peace. Yeah. Nobody like him. Nobody like him. And the song we got, if you haven't figured it out, is the big payback off his 37th studio album. 37th studio album. Wow. People don't work like that no more. People don't work like that. True legend. Hardest working man is show business. What? Let me get into what the song is about. The big payback is a song about revenge and retribution. The lyrics speak about receiving justice for wrongdoings to others and getting paybacks for those actions. Brown emphasizes the point that personal justice should be exact, even if it means having to put up with hardships or danger. The song speaks on the need to stand up for oneself and not allow anyone else to take advantage of them. The song speaks to a sense of pride and empowerment in doing what is right and getting revenge for when someone has done you wrong. But despite being a heavy subject, the upbeat and groovy song is catchy and captivating and serves as a reminder to stand up for oneself and never back down. Let's take a quick break from the show. Just wanted to let you know that this next segment has been sponsored by your boys barbecue sauce. Slow cooked over a low fire, is good on chicken, pork, beef, broccoli, corn, Gibson fish, shrimp. It's good on everything. Sponsored by your boys barbecue sauce. The link will be provided soon if you know, you know, check it out. Let's go. So let's get into these bars, man. It's not a lot. Cause, you know, James Brown doing a lot of yelling and screaming, but he got a couple words in here because he wanted to get his point across and talk about his revenge. So let's get it. Revenge, I'm mad, got to get back. I uh, need some get back question that go with this. Is revenge a healthy way to deal with anger and resentment? I'mma get my revenge. I got to get the payback. Get the payback. What you doing, Keith? Do you feel like revenge is the best way to deal with anger, uh, and resentment? I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't time for that. Leave me alone. Bye. What's done is done. It depends. It depends. It depends on what? It depends. It depends on the situation. It depends on what them people did to you. Yeah, that's true. But, like, back in the day, that was the thing you gonna pay by. You gonna get revenge now? It's a different kind of revenge. So it's a generation thing? It's not a generation thing, but it's a little different. Ain't nobody even got to do nothing to you for somebody to want to get revenge on you. Yeah, that's why I was saying, like, depending on the situation. Yeah. It's more like a bullying thing they do now more than like a, uh, revenge thing. So that's what you think he meant by revenge, getting his revenge? I don't know, man. I'm working on this, dawg. You go get yours. I got to get mine, vy. Yeah, I'm on belly. I was sitting on the couch. You gonna get your. You gonna get your. You gonna get your feet. You gonna get your b. I mean, I don't think it's the healthiest way. It's probably not the healthiest way, man. I'm working on this. I can't let stuff slide, though. Uh, especially when ain't nobody did nothing to nobody. River deep, mountain high. It's hard. It's hard, man, when you ain't did nothing to nobody at all and people just act like, I don't, uh, know, I gotta get mine. Yeah, I gotta get mine. It's probably not the most healthiest way. Ain't no healthy way. Ain't no healthy way to get revenge. It. Yes, it is. What's the healthy way to get revenge? Not getting revenge. What you supposed to do? Nothing. Cause everybody, you know, let go. Let God stuff. But I ain't gonna lie, dawg. God be waiting too long turn the other cheek God be waiting too long for me turn the other cheek God be waiting too long for me and it sounds terrible, yeah, as I'm seeing it, but I be like, man, they need to get dealt with now. I want it done. Uh, not at, uh, all. It's coming from. Try, uh, Jesus but please don't try. Please don't try me. I be wanting benz immediately, dawg. But that's why I say it depends on the situation. Yeah, it does. It depends on what, how, when whatever was done to seek revenge. Because if it's something like what you just said. Cause I believe you talking about something. Mm mhm hmm. It's just a lot of stuff I be seeing, dog. A lot of stuff don't even be having nothing to do with me. But I be like, dawg, these people ain't did nothing to get treated like that. You know what I'm saying? That's true. I be wanting straightening immediately. I get you. But then that's a stupidity type thing that you would see out that it's just unnecessary b's that makes you want to get revenge. So I feel you. So that's a healthy revenge. Because the type of revenge that I was talking about, blah, blah, blah. Well, that goes to the next question, right? What are the consequences of seeking revenge? You're going to jail. Well, they got a place for you. Yes. Yeah. They got a place for you. And you definitely going to jail by taking the law into your own hands. But I think I said this before in a different episode. I feel like some of these judges and people need to start asking what happened and weighing the situation out case by case, instead of just going by what the law say. Exactly. Because dog like, oof. If they find out you done did something to somebody and these people did nothing but good for you, and you just decided you had enough, and you get your straightening that right there. I think that case need to be handled different than what's just in the law books. That's just me though. I agree, though. Yeah. But that's when the money come in. Cause you gonna have to get a lawyer. Yeah, you gotta get a lawyer. It's consequences for her. Yeah. That's the only way. Cause they see us coming with this skin. You gonna have to have a lawyer to explain it for you. Yeah, you're going to jail. You're going to jail. Yeah. You going down. I to tell, uh. Let's get it to the next question also too, though, before you hit that over. Okay. That revenge also can be taken over by a karma. So like you going to jail for what you did to get that revenge. But my thing is it's going to come back around. I don't know, I kind of been. I don't know if I feel about karma no more. Yeah. Cause I feel like that takes too long too. Yeah. See you too. I ain't with that wait process. I want immediate consequences. Let's get these circumstances for people getting wrong doing done to them, dog. I want it immediate. I want it. Kubwaita did a lot of stupid jobs and I done paid for it. But I don't know when it hit me though, right? I can say though I hate. I prefer. Cause it changed your life. But it posed to be soon ass. But it don't happen soon as it don't happen like that though. It used to happen for me like that. I think if it do happen immediately, it'll change a lot of people. Cause they will go into whatever messed up situation they doing, they'll go into it. But like, man, as soon as I do this, is this gonna happen within hours straightening? Yeah. Yeah, bro. Yeah. Uh, all right. Uh, let's get it to. Let's get it to the next question. How can one find closure without resulting to revenge? Like you said, it got to be dealt with. If it ain't dealt with, I don't think it's a closure that's going. I mean, you can walk away when you still gonna think about it. It got to happen immediately depending on, uh, your revenge, what that person done to you, right? Or they didn't even had to do something. They could have just instigated something and you saw it. I need revenge on them now. You know what I'm saying? So, like, dang it. Just like you said, it have to be dealt with. That's what I feel, man. I feel like it has to get dealt with immediately. That's just, um. How do you find closure, though? Is it a way to find closure? It's a way to find closure. Cause I know, you know, a lot of people with religion pray about it. And it's a way let go and let God and live and let die. Yeah, I ain't on that. All these cute little sayings people be coming up with. Yeah, uh, it'll be closure when I pay back. When I close the book, I close it down. Shut it down. I think that's a cover up. Hey, these are the people that raised me. Um, I don't think you got no closure. Yeah, I'm gonna feel real good, right? Closure. I don't know. You gonna go to sleep and wake up. Ain't no closure. Hey, y'all, if y'all in the comments or whatever, man, how can you find closure without resulting to revenge? Cause straightening gotta be had, dawg. It do. I don't like that jump, man. Cause if it don't get had. Then it's a whole bunch of idiots. I feel like that was like, at times, I ain't gonna lie. At times, I feel like just going to be a vigilante. I be feeling like getting me a costume doll and just riding and seeing people getting mistreated and just pull up. Boom. Just straighten it right on the spot. We need one of them. Straighten it right on the spot and be gone. We need one of them. We don't need no police. We don't need nothing. Nothing at all. You see two kids about to mush each other? Pull their ass apart, dog. Cause you remember a couple months ago, they were shooting right here at the apartments and all that? Yeah, I wanted to go. I wanted to go, dawg. It's innocent people living in these buildings. Uh, shoot who you came to get, exactly? You out here just spraying. And I ain't condoning it, but shoot who you come from. Right? Right. Ain't they just thoughtless? Crazy dog. Let's get into the next one. Are there any alternative methods to seek justice, a, uh, resolution instead of seeking revenge? Hell, no. Unless you gonna call the police. Hell no. Because it ain't gonna be fair. Yeah. And you ain't gonna be satisfied with that. No. Cause they might get us. You going by, uh, law, you call the police, you might go to jail. You said you might go with them. Well, how did this happen? Right? Cause, boy, Nino. Hey. Cause Nino Brown got out. Aydotala. Aydad got out. What he definitely did. He came. He got shot, but he was out of there. Yeah. Uh, he got out. He was out. Man, that stuff don't work like that. So none. No alternative. Not to me. All right. It should be one. Yeah, I hope it is, but I don't think it's gonna be. I don't think so. Can revenge ever truly bring satisfaction and resolution? Oh, yeah. You gonna go to sleep. Can we not? Y'all, uh, whoever's listening, y'all tuned in. Please don't think we bad people, dawg. It's just a lot we see, dog, and it just be out of control, dawg. Uh, people just take advantage of people off of. Feel like it. It don't be. No, it don't even be reason to do these people wrong. It just be pure. Feel like doing it wrong. Ain't nobody asked for this. Like, what y'all got? Is it, brain? True satisfaction. I be trying to get up out of the way. Gonna paint that shit over here. I be like, oof. And I know you ain't supposed to wish, uh, bad on people, hope bad on people or nothing like that. I love it. But see, man, what, what, what? You ain't supposed to whiz bad and stuff old people. Hey, um, I don't. What comes around goes around. I feel good. I'mma be sitting by laughing. Uh, deal with you. Okay. Deal with you. I'm, um, gonna say you sold me out. But you get changed, dog. We finna get counsel. Hey, but it's. Hey, it's true, though. That man, you know, he sat down, people be thinking he be out there yelling, that man be for real. It's so much chicken. Change came out, Brown was on. Uh, imagine that. Especially back in the day, what that man had to go through. That man need new shoes to slide across his. Brown had to go through it. Yeah, that's why they need to, uh, redo that man's house over there. That's why we sitting right here talking about him now. That's his revenge. Shout out to James Brown, man. Shout out to James Brown. Let's get into the next question. How does seeking revenge affects one's mental and emotional well being? If you don't hurry up, if you don't hurry up, I'mma just. I'm gonna take these matters right now. We gotta get. We gotta. We go into jail. We going to jail, man. Um, mentally, dog, like, get it? Yeah, let's get it, dawg. I'm the joker. Like. Mhm. I feel good about this type of stuff. Come on. Smiling. I feel good. If y'all haven't watched the movie, Joker, like, that is a scream example of how I feel. I'm not finna go off the edge like that. But Arthur didn't mess with nobody. Nobody. Arthur didn't mess with nobody. Arthur was just trying to play with the little kid on the bus and laugh. And then he got the condition where he just. And then he showed the lady the car and now she. You know what I'm saying? And then he got jumped on the train. Arthur had enough, shot everybody. Yeah, it always be like that, though. Hey, they asked for it. I mean, but you know what I'm saying? For real. Yeah, they ice for it. Yeah. You gotta leave people alone. That's why I said with this revenge thing, leave me alone. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I be wanting the revenge, but my revenge ain't nice. I might be like, off, uh, not literally speaking, but I'm saying, yeah, it make you mental when somebody do something to you and you can't, you know, get them back. But that's a good example. Yeah, you can't believe it. You like, man, I ain't gonna lie. I feel good, but I be lome. It's a little too dark. It get a little too dark, dog. Uh, because, boy, I start grinning, it's all like, ooh, I'm glad you did this. You better be like this. People don't even know sometimes. Hey, I guess that's my way of dealing with it. Cause sometimes I just walk off and think about my kids or something. You have to. You get straightening. For real. It's tough. Uh, what are some strategies for letting go of desire for revenge? Have a water gun fight, a balloon fight. Water balloon. Make it a fun thing. Make it a fun thing. Fun. Laughing. Yeah, comedy. Go to a comedy show. Yeah, go to a comedy. Mine's probably not the best solution. What yours is. I'm going to the gun range. Oh, uh, we know you going to. I'm find it. Let it off. 300 are better. Bussing. Boo busting. Boo. Yeah, we already know that's where I'm going, man. That's a good way. Yeah, that's a good way. Once you come out of there, your hands be like, yeah, I'm straight. Yeah, a little better. Mm hmm. Yeah, that's a good way, too. Let's get it to the next one. Is forgiveness a better option than seeking revenge? Why or why not? I be on my positive. Good. Let the people know we ain't savages. Here we go. I be on my positive. And sometimes it is good to forgive. And it do make you feel a little better. And like I was saying about that karma thing. Cause when I be forgiven, I can have a little patience with it. And I ride down the street and I get to see the karma. So that's the only reason why I make, you know, it makes me positive in a way, to forgive. Because I know that your day is coming. I got you. Yeah, I'm with you. I been on that. What you got over here, Marsolo? Nothing. I'll forgive. It depends on the situation. Is it a better option than seeking revenge? Mm, depends on the situation. That's all they keep saying. Depends on the situation. Yeah, it depends on what you did. Cause you could just be the dead. Something light, you know? Not too bad. Mhm. I'll forgive you, but I ain't gonna forget it. But it also has to do with a lot of tolerance too, what you tolerate. But I think revenge is the best option. I'm from the gold, but I will forgive. I'm out. I'm done. I ain't got time for you. So I'm on, um, my positive. I be like, you know what? Especially if you in my face and do it. I'm so sorry you feel that way, but, um. Have a good day. Yeah, so my. Well, I'm gonna just tell you, mine has got a lot to do with, um, sarcasm. So. I got a lot of sarcastic. I got sarcastic forgiveness. What about you? I ain't there yet, dawg. Right. You know, you'll forgive. I don't know. I'm not there yet, though. I don't know about, uh, it. It depends. Especially, man, if they in your face, you ain't finna forgive nothing. But it could be a situation where you'll say, okay, I forgive you. Cause it's on the phone or social media or whatever, if it ain't that serious. But, like, that's what I'm saying. You know, I have a hard time with ain't nobody did nothing for me type of conversations. But we ain't even talking about nothing light. Because James Brown was for real. He talking about revenge. He said, chicken change. But chicken change, that's a big deal. But you sold me out for chicken change. You sold me out for scraps. That's a big deal. So you. We ain't even talking about what James Brown said. We talking about us. Uh, would you forgive for some big. For. I already said I won't. It depends. Will you? It depends on the situation. Yeah. So you saying you ain't gonna. You would never forgive? I forgive once I see God handle it. Yeah. You can't pay then. Sometimes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sometimes. Once I see the man. Yeah. Once you got dealt with, then that's karma. Yeah. That's what I'm talking about. But it takes too long. It takes too long. Right. I'm patient. I can wait. Sometimes it don't. You just don't see it. Yeah. Cause they ain't gonna let you know. Cause they know you seeking it. True. Um, I don't know, man. I, um, don't with this. Y'all let us know what y'all think, man. Is forgiveness better option than seeking revenge? Think about your family. That goes to the next question. How does seeking revenge impact personal relationships and social dynamics? I think it impact you when people see, like, yeah, I can't play no games with him. M. And, no, it's not like a fear, uh, thing. I'm trying to put fear in somebody because they know I'm a dude. Seek revenge. It's just like, bro, don't do nothing stupid and we ain't got to worry about that. That's true. Yeah, it's the stupid. We ain't got to worry about it. You ain't got to be scared of what I might do and just, hey, man, have some consideration. That's it. For what people doing and allowing you to do around them and all that. Don't be no idiot. Right. Be wise, open, wise. Don't be an idiot, dawg. Uh, that's the thing, being an idiot. Yeah. Having I don't be around them kind of people no more. Mhm. I can't even really surround myself around it. Cause that's where I be wanting to seek revenge. Because you just wanna be around me and, you know, let me scratch my head on that. But yeah, m let's get into some of the balls with James Brown. We done ran off these questions, man.

That's what he said. I don't need you. Yeah, I'm not, uh uh. I'm straight on that. Yeah, I'm good. I'm straight on that. You can't sell me out for chicken chain, right? I'm good. Um, yeah, I know who I am. Especially they told you they got it. They looking out for you. Exactly. Yeah. And you still see me. Yeah, for the chicken change. It's over. Yeah, it's over with. It's done. It's through. Dylan, let's get it to the next bar. I can do wheeling. I can do a dealing. Yes, we can. But I don't do no squealing. How do y'all feel about snitching?

But they don't want you to see that they doing you wrong. God, that question right there, man, that question right there gets you killed. Oh, yeah. Not killed. Well, let me tell, let me tell you this story. What happened back in the day. Oh, uh, lord, here we go. Back in the days. Yes. Uh, James Brown had a concert here. He was at the armory, right? And my dad went. Mm mhm hmm. And my dad just had bought a brand new Camaro. Ooh, what color it was? I think it was like orange looking brown. You know that orange. Yeah, that new color, right. Uh, right. So I don't know how, but some kind of way, somebody called my mom and told her that my dad was down there with another lady in that car. Yeah. Remember what James Brown said? Yeah. So my mom went down there and she seen the car and she flat all four, the tires on the brand new car. Don't want you to see what you're doing to me m. Yes, she did. I can get back. Yeah, there you go. Ooh, that's hot. Uh, that's a good payback, too. That's it, man. He was so mad. She put him on foes all four brand new camaro, all foe flat. He was out there showing up. Yeah, yeah. At the James Brown concert. He getting with it. He was on the good foot. Yeah. And everything. And he got the big pay back. Yes, he did. Yes, he did. They ain't had to do my granddaddy. He was just showing that lady his car, that's all. Dang, they ain't had to do gramps, like come down. Oh, yeah, that's godly. I guess that's how you handle them. Right there. Yeah, that's it. Four flats. Four flats. The big payback. That's tough. Uh, wow. Listen, man, people that's tuned in, please don't think we just a whole criminal organization over here. Hey, it looked that way. Let me see what your revenge be like. No, uh, it's just, man, I feel like, you know, our tight circle. I feel like we look out for people, dog, and people just don't appreciate it. They try to take advantage, and I hear it a lot that ain't nobody did nothing for them. We're not obligated to do anything for anybody. But when we do, we go all the way to the max. Yeah, we help you out. We go all the way to the max and try to help you out. Like get shitty, though. Yep. The payback, though. The payback. Let's get it to this next bar, this next line. A lot of people been saying wrong, but this is the right way to say it. Don't do me no darn favorite. Mm hmm. I don't know karate, but I know courageous. What you say, courasia? What'd you say, carrasia? Caraza. Caraza. Oh, razor. Yes. Karate. Uh, yes, it sounds like you said crazy, but that's what a lot of people say. I thought he said crazy, like it was another me, too. Nah, he get it. Uh, he says karate. He says Krazer, like a razor, like a blade. Like he going crazy with a razor. Yes, he said he get it from, um, a stand up comedian back in the day named Clay Tyson. Um, he say, I don't know karate, but I know caraza. Talking about a razor blade. Which makes sense because acting, acting crazy would just get you whooped. But if you acting crazy, you gonna get straightening. Wow, man, I thought he was talking about a nationality. Nah, he another chinese folk out here we don't know about. Yeah, what a crazier. Is that a razor? Nah. Uh, man, it's crazy. So everybody been saying that jump rolling this whole time. It ain't crazy, it's caraza. That's why it's important for y'all to go back and look at them lyrics. I just gotta go look at these lyrics. But you know what? He could have get away with it with the police. Cause they don't know what that is. You right. Yeah, I did say karazi. Lock me up. Cause boy, if you say karaza. Oh, he got weapons. I got a razor. Yeah, he goin to jail. Nah, I'm crazy. I'm crazy. Yeah. So this is a different era, man. Different time, man. And you know this question. You ain't gotta answer it if you don't want to. I'm not. Have you ever had to put a blade on somebody or witnessed somebody putting a blade on somebody on tv? Anybody wanna incriminate they self on the pod on tv, man? Ah, I saw. Anybody wanna incriminate, we ain't got to do it. We good. We skipping past. You ain't finna see all the crazy vibes. He told you we a little crazy. Uh, I seen it on tv, though. I seen a lot of episodes. They got a lot of reality shows out here now. That's a lot of that. They wanna use tv and all that. They wanna use tv. They don't probably wanna criminate this. Nah, I ain't doing that one. We straight. Just don't play with me, though. Yeah, man. It ain't a lot of blades, a lot of people getting shot nowadays. That's why I asked. But, uh, let's get it to the next one, man. Your grandma, uh oh. Hey, hey, hey. Let's go, let's go. Take those kids and raise them up. Okay. Show them how to drink out, uh, the righteous cup. What? Show them how to drink out the righteous cup. That's what's up. Uh, definitely. What's the righteous called? Just show them how to do things the right way, going the straight, narrow, the righteous way. You don't show them how to do caraza and all that type of stuff. Okay. Yeah, I forgot the ending of that part. Question that go with this. Um, how do y'all feel like, do y'all feel as, do we need, like, more mentors, more ogs out, uh, here in the neighborhood, in the communities, for sure. Yes, absolutely. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I definitely agree with that. Yeah, we definitely need that for our kids. Show them how to drink out the righteous cup. Yeah. They need to get out the house and put that social media down and learn how to do things. But we need a little force behind it, but not physically. I don't know how that look, how that's gonna look? Cause I've been trying to figure that out too. But I definitely think that we do need ogs, uh, grandmothers that still here, grandfathers, anybody they 40, but it's still some of them m old ones a little, you know, out here. Huh? That got a little something. Yeah. But anybody, you know, not me. We'll take all we can get to get these kids. Well, for me, I'll take who I can get. That can give these kids some righteousness to drink out that cup. I even buy you a cup so you can drink it. I make you a cup. Make a cup for righteousness. Right? Um, I do my part, man, in the basketball world. Oh, yeah. Because, you know, man, sports and all that in life is just parallel. Exactly. Like, you not going to work hard and have discipline for basketball. How you going to do that in life? True. If you want to work on your craft and get better at your craft, how you gonna do that in life? How you gonna apply that in life? Yeah. Basketball, it taught me a lot. It definitely taught me a lot. Because if you don't work, you're not gonna get no better. Uh-huh. I hate to go on the basketball rant, but one of the worst things that can happen on the basketball court, make him go left. That means you only got one hand on the basketball floor. You have to work on your left hand, try to get it as equal. Or, you know, saying, at least be a threat. That's working on yourself. That's self development. Like that jump, uh, teach you a lot, man. Sports teach you a lot. They teach you a lot. I try to mentor through sports, man. Cause it's parallel with life. That's good. I like that for you. And, like, another one, like the free throw line, that is the time when you done been up and down, you've been hustling, bustling, and now it's time to relax, center yourself, take a deep breath, and just finish. See, that's ooh. Like, free throws are, uh. You know what I'm saying? That's what it is. That's your time to block out everything, readjust focus, and knock down the shot. Oh, that's so relaxing. Yeah. Now I want to go to the free throw. That's what a free throw line. That's what a free throw is. Good. I ain't know that. Yeah, man. Basketball is football. It's stuff like that in football, too. So you know when they go to the free throw line and we, like, miss it now I said, do you remember? So remember we went to the HCC game, m and the dude, y'all was making all that noise. Y'all was yelling, ah. Trying to make a miss. He made the shot, looked at y'all, and I said, don't say nothing. Be quiet. Because when I seen him look up there, he's not focused on what he's doing. I said, be quiet. Don't say nothing. It got quiet. He bricked that jump so hard, he wasn't focused, he wasn't locked in on what he supposed to be doing. Worry about they take your focus off. You trying to. Yeah, yeah. You done took your focus off what you supposed to be doing. And now you looking at the crowd. Now you off your center. Well, you know what? You was born to be a coach. Yes, sir. Uh, I don't know how to put y'all kids on the team, too, now. We've been posting about it, too. Come on now, y'all. I don't know if I'm supposed to be a coach. It's just, uh, at this point, I can learn techniques, of course. Yeah. But see, I gotta get through it all of that. I like the mental part of the game. Like, I still gotta get my exes and those better so I can get to another level of coaching. But, like, the mental part of it, I don't, you see, I don't do all that yelling with the kids and all that. Because most kids, you know, they ain't nothing paying attention. They don't like that jump. Um, yeah. They don't like when you make them be accountable for they self. When they out there on the floor and they getting, uh, handled. Don't, uh, look at me. Right. Work on your game. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. I can't do nothing. Well, hey, try something else. That's what's up. Or you can come over here, be in a bench with me. Right. So that's why we need everybody out in the community helping them. Yeah, you gotta help them, man. I just need that. I just do my, uh, thing with coaching, man. But it's a lot of stuff, man. These kids need some coaching, man. They need something to look forward to, something to build towards programs. Cause it's bad. And then we gonna, um, teach them James Brown. You gonna teach them James Brown? They hate him right now. No, they hate us on music. They hate us on music because, you know, this is like the fourth or fifth era of sampling these songs. So if you play something, be like, oh, this is the original version of that. Y'all always saying y'all had it first. It's true. But we kinda used to be like. I used to be kinda like that with you. I was like, man, I don't wanna. Man, listen. The seventies is like. It's gotta be like the greatest music ever. Cause everything, most of the samples is from the seventies. But you think if you play it, they'll jam off of it, they'll dance? Some of them will. Some. It depends on where the household was at. But, uh, I think that's it. Man, uh, the last bar. My patience ends. I want revenge. Oof. No, I don't want to run out of that. I'm scared. My patience ends. I won't revenge. Uh, I won't revenge. I don't pay back. And he repeatedly said, I want revenge. I want revenge. I want revenge. But we ain't talking about. We talk about. So look, that's it. That's all the bars and everything. But let me ask you. Cause y'all, y'all, this is y'all era, like, what was the feeling? What was the energy like when this song came out? Oh, yeah. Oh, um. Man, it was crazy. Yeah, yeah, it was real crazy, man. Everybody used to be screaming and dancing and trying to slide. The energy was just up there. Did it make anybody mad? No. Cause this song is about revenge. I know, but really, but really, ain't nobody even used to listen to the lyrics like that. It's the music. Yeah, the music and him dancing and sliding like that and then throwing capes on and off. It was amazing. M really, really. Nobody really listened to the lyrics. And recently I just learned, you know, looked at them and seen them, you know, you would just know like, bits and m parts of the song, but not really paid attention to what it really was saying. Except for the Black Panthers. Oh, yeah. Black Panthers was on it. Yeah, but that's awesome. Y'all had that energy with it. That's what I like about it. Yeah, yeah. And see, we were young, so we ain't pay no attention to it. We just like to dance now. Our parents and stuff, they probably, you know, knew and stuff. But, man, James Brown, come on. Ain't nobody cared what he was saying. Yeah. Just jamming them horns, man. Yeah, I wanna go back. Uh, do y'all think we ever get another James Brown? Because this man, like, I went through a James Brown rabbit hole. He's conducting the music as it's going. Mhm. He's telling. The horn man, hit me. He telling the piano. Piano. He said, piano, play it right. And I love the way he said it. And that's how it was like today. Now that you said that, is there anybody like that? There is. I say. Cause I just seen an interview with Erica Badu. Shout out, Erica Badu. She liked that. She liked. Cause, uh, James Brown did not like his music to be mastered. Mhm. He didn't like it to be eq'd a lot. He wanted it raw, funky. So if you listen to it, you can hear all the glitches and all the stuff that should be cleaned up in the song. All that's in there, he want it. Or somebody mess up a note or something, he want it in there. He said, man, don't mess up the groove. Erica badu like that, too. She was like, I don't want to send my song to mastering. I want it how it is. You listen to her music, it sound gritty like that. But I think probably back in the day, most of the music was like that. It was. But Brown, they didn't have the access and stuff and how they do now to cut all that stuff out. So you got more of that then? Yeah. Well, I'll tell you my view. Like, I've been on my gospel. I love gospel music, right? I'm not a real religion like that, but I love the music and the anointing that it gives and the organized of gospel music. But Kirk, uh, it's definitely organized, man. This guy, he kind of orchestrate that way, too. Like, he do some live sessions sometimes and just to watch him. I know a lot of people don't like him because he don't need to be at, uh, him saying, but this man is actually like orchestrating the way that these people are singing it and what time in the notes and how this should, and say this at this time. And this panel, I want you to play a b flat. And I need these drums to hit. Like that meant he gives me James Brown. And you know, James Brown is kind of like, kind of got like just starting before he really got into music. He was kind of gospel. Mhm. So I see a lot of Kirk Franklin in James Brown. They be conducting that jump dog. He too, man. And he got, he got, um. I like now how he got a lot of the younger generations into it. You hear the news and stuff. Yeah, he the one built that. A lot of that's James Brown, too, man. That yet, like, for instance, I want to say like fantasia or, um, what's her name? Leandria. When they do that yelling and that. What's a beans, greens, potatoes? That's James. If you don't tell me, baby. Yeah, that's it. Ties in. That's why I listen to gospel, Houston, because I be having that same feeling from gospel, uh, that I would have from him. Yeah, what about. They never would have made it, though. That too. Never, never would have made. I'm telling you. Hey, y'all ain't about nothing. We outta here. Making funky. Ooh, Jesus, uh, ain't nobody like him, but it's similarities. He inspired so many issues, right. So we'll ever see. We won't see anyone. I don't think we will see someone like him. But we will always be reminded. All right, before we get up out of here, we gonna bring back our one gotta go James Brown edition. Since we doing the big payback, so one gotta go. James Brown. The big payback. It's a man's world. Good foot and super bad one gotta go, man. I listen to all of them. I can't even. I can't. Could we do. Could we not take none off? Yeah, you gotta make a choice. We gotta make a choice here. Now.

You don't like it for the civil fight, what they say? Yeah, I love to hear James getting down, like, right now. I know. I like that, too. I know. That's right. I like all of them. I don't want to take. We gotta pick one. I'm gonna take the good foot off. One gotta go good foot off yours. I'm gonna do super bad since you go super bad off yours. Don't go off. My decision. Yeah, you gotta do your own. But we can't do the both. Yes, you can. You can. If that's what you man's world gotta go for me. If that's how you feel. I'm gonna do man's world.
