Mids & Mudducks

This week, Asaad the Artiz and Kemistree kick things off by revisiting listener feedback from a previous episode before diving headfirst into a wide-ranging conversation that only The MAK Podcast can deliver.

Before getting into music, the duo take a detour into vasectomies, male birth control, and the realities of reproductive responsibility from a man’s perspective. From there, they break down Jay-Z’s freestyle at The Roots Picnic and ask a controversial question: Is Jay-Z out of touch? That conversation opens the door to even bigger debates about gatekeeping in hip-hop, whether gatekeeping is necessary, and which rappers would completely fall off if social media disappeared tomorrow. The crew also debates Jay-Z’s Top 5 songs and Asaad shares his frustration with rap fans only wanting lyrical breakdowns when there’s beef involved.

After the music break, the conversation shifts to the leaked Diddy/Daphne Joy sextape and the culture surrounding celebrity scandals. Why are people so entertained by celebrity downfalls? Why do we elevate celebrities into mythical figures instead of appreciating them as talented humans? The discussion gets deep, uncomfortable, and thought-provoking.

Later, Kemistree puts Asaad in the hot seat with a series of tough questions that spark some hilarious and unexpected answers. The episode wraps up with a round of “Would You Rather?” and a “We Listen and We Don’t Judge” segment that brings plenty of laughs and confessions.

All that and much more in another unpredictable episode of The MAK Podcast.

I feel like a lot of my takes has upset a lot of people. You know, this is a safe place. I I think that, you know, um, you just like to be the villain in the story. I do. I I revel in it. But you know, I I rock with righteous villains. That's what I am. You know. That's exactly what I am. You don't do nothing bad in life, you know what I'm saying? You don't destroy people's lives. You know, you do have an opinion, you see, you know, you say, but you also can be correct. You'll spend a block. I stand. Yeah, yeah. That's true, sorry. Um, let me see. You definitely are feeling though. They ain't over junior. Um, all right, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, let's get to it. Let's get to it. Let's get to it. Um How we feeling? Ah, man. I'm I'm good. You know, I'm still on the same journey. Okay. Choosing joy, choosing joy, choosing joy. Uh, so recently I made a decision. I feel like I'm I I feel like I gave it a lot of thought. I'm gonna get a vasectomy at 44. Oh my god, you wanna know what's so crazy? Honestly, I can't make this up. Look at this. I had to write it down so I was wouldn't forget my thoughts. And literally, one of my questions to you later on, I was gonna ask was should men get vasectomies as a form of birth control at the age of 18. Who? Because it can be reversed. Yeah. Because you said 44, which I mean makes sense because you already had kids, right? So I was thinking pro pre-kids. Pre-kids. But I also think now that you brought it up, it's like pre-kids and after how many kids? Okay, well, yeah, go ahead. I love that. No, no, no, no. I feel like, yeah, that's just like, okay, man, like, you know, I'm sitting I'm looking at my situation right now, and I'm looking at like, you know, dating aspect. It's only gonna get rougher as we get older. So it's just like, you know, hey, man, I mean, I never know what's gonna happen. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know, you never know what's gonna happen the next day or anything going forward. But you know what I mean. I'm going to give myself a good, what, nine years? Nine years, uh, yeah, about a good seven, seven years. You know what I mean? A seven year window. But I feel like it's just like it'd be the responsible thing to do now. And I do not want a white doctor doing it. Okay, so I I got I mean, I'll just own that. I ain't even gonna hold you. Nah, man. Black man's nuts and white man's hands do not have a good history. You know what? Amen. Don't have a history. I'm not even gonna argue with you on it. Because you know what? My ancestors won't look at it. Okay, power to the people. You feel me? Okay, but there's any black vasectomy specialists out there tapping on the. So are you doing it? You say you're gonna do it now or are you gonna wait till I'm gonna wait till 45. So why wait when if you know you don't want any more babies now? I didn't say I don't, I didn't say I don't want any more babies. But right at this moment, you know. At this moment, I'm not planning on having more babies, correct. So what I need to get it reversed at any time. I know, but you can though, within the seven to ten year period. Oh, okay. This is like statistically, this is this is period. As long as you do it in a seven to ten year period, you can still have choice, everything's still fine. Okay. So why not do it now so that you don't have to worry about it, and then you can reverse it when you like, I'm ready to have some more babies. To me, that makes more sense. Because within these next seven years, you do you want to make more babies right now? Like, yeah, I'm gonna leave it. Like, like say you meet someone and you the in an easy. Yeah, and I don't want to have to go through that procedure all over again. You feel what I'm saying? It's not that bad a procedure though. It only affects you for like a week, if that. You just gotta keep your your nuts iced and don't move. What you mean? You get to chill on the couch while you got people serving you. Yeah, that's it. And you got people who love you, so you good. Crazy. Now, if you had some if you was like someone who didn't have nobody around you, that'd be terrible. But you ain't that's not you, so I don't know. I think it should happen now if you don't want another baby. I'm still thinking about it. The fact that I'm agreeing to do it is uh, yeah in itself, because I was like, nobody's messing with my nuts ever. Yeah. I mean, that's a scary thing. I was on that type of time. Yeah, it's a scary thing, man. That's a scary thing, man. And you know, they sensitive, so like I get it. You feel what I'm saying? It's a family jewel's. But it actually does work, and I haven't heard no one having no bot procedure ever. You never hear of it. You don't. It's just not a thing. You feel me? So is is if in y'all case, so so to tune my question in, since we own it, though, do you do you I know you think about it now, but it's uh take away your nuts in the equation. Um do you think it should be used as a form of birth control for boys? Absolutely. Especially so we don't have to. At least that's an option, yeah, yeah. You know, pregnancy pregnancy or people just having kids in bad timing and bad situations. You know what I mean? Like, I I think if we want to stop having teenage pregnancies, then like that should be. I feel like teenage pregnancies has declined massively over the years. No, no, it has. Statistically speaking, I don't know. You don't see too many pregnant teenagers out here anymore. Um, I've seen some pregnant teenagers. But you out here? I mean out here? Like Humboldt specifically? No, I haven't seen that. No, okay, so like, but if you go to the city, but if you go to the city travel around, I feel like it's the same way, the same thing everywhere. Yeah, it must be like a lot of people. Because I talked to my niece, like she said there's not too many pregnant teenagers. Well, this generation of kids are much more educated as far as knowing they don't half them, it's sad because half of them don't even want to have kids. Yeah. So they're extra crowded. It makes sense of why they don't. Yeah. Well, you know what? Even look at the state of the world of things, man. Like, if you could be able to like support your family just working a nine to five, you know what I mean? Like where it used to be, like you just work 40 hours a week and you still be able to like you'd be able to live in vacation. All you gotta do is work 40 hours a week. Yeah, and like you could work anywhere, you know what I'm saying, for that for that part. Um, like this back of the day where where rent was like 500 bucks and stuff like that. And gas everywhere was like a dollar or two. So you know what I mean? Like that was one of my dollar menu. That was like really one of my like pushbacks and just like uh on my end when it comes to my situation because of the times we're living in. It's not the fact that you know I have kids, it's the fact that I'm not financially nowhere in the middle of the day. Well, that's what I was thinking, yeah. I did, yeah, that's why I was thinking. So it's just like, you know what I mean? And me personally, my plan, the plan was to wait till I'm like in a great financial space, then have kids. Like that was. That's why God laughed at you and said, ha ha ha three times. Ha ha ha, three times. Yeah. Yeah, that was really rude of him. But I do extremely rude of him. Like, bruh knew what I was trying to do. You see, that's why uh he's like, no, having born in poverty. Crazy work, man. Yeah, it's true. Dang near. They don't know though. That's the beautiful thing about kids. You know, they are oblivious. But it makes my conversation, like, well, my thoughts on it change from uh maybe because with this generation, you're right, they're not focused on kids. So maybe birth control for older men who got too many kids, knowing they can't take care of none of them. Yeah, if you got if you're over like four, my guy. Then you know you can't take care of the fucking that besetting the plague. Yeah, dog. And you know you're gonna be busting us everywhere. You still bust. He still busts. It just, you know. They just wanna know nothing, nothing is in there. Blanks, you know? No, they like ghost man. I love that conversation though. I think that should be a thing. No, no, I really think that should be good. I agree, I agree. But also, shout out to you for thinking like that, though. It's really responsible, you know what I'm saying? And uh, you can have that conversation with other men who, you know, after you experience it, so that you can be like, nah, it's good. Like, my own. No, my boy got one. My boy got one. He highly encourages, he's like uh a year younger than me. And he was like, after his third one, he was like, Yeah, no, it's it's a rap I'm done for a while. Um How did he describe it? He described it just pretty much like what you did, just like very basic. It's like it's not outpatient procedure. Yeah, it's like it's not a crazy thing to do, but it's just like the fact that I gotta scalpel to my nuts and get sliced open. That's you overeducated, you know too much. I've seen it in my head when I've been like exactly, exactly. So I'm just like, uh maybe when I'm 44, I'd be I I wouldn't care by then. Yeah, yeah. Or either that or another two babies come. Shopper we clothes. Oh, man, come on, come on. Oh yeah, no, you good, you got you know, you're responsible. Yeah, now I was, but until I wasn't, yeah. No. No, I never had a scare even before. No, you didn't, I never even had a scare. Never even had a scare before. That was crazy. I was very, very careful. Yeah, but you I was shot when it came back to back. Like I was like, You definitely wasn't one of those. Never, I would never wear a direx ever. I would never wear a direx ever again in my life. Ever again. Don't trust that brand, y'all. It was the only thing that was there. But anywho. But at least you, you know, you got something. You know what I mean? I tried it. Disclaimer, Direx is not it. It will have you under duress. Man, be Trojan men everywhere. Speaking of bars. Okay, what's going on? Let's let's get to it. Let's get to it. We had him. We had him. Bro ho we had him. How we oh my god. We had him. I know. I knew you had him. Oh. Let's go. We had him on the stage, man. If you guys did not listen to or did not watch the Roots picnic over the weekend, was it? Mm-hmm. Day Light Festival. Um, Mr. Hippocrite himself. No, that's what you mean. I have some thoughts about the little freestyle, trust me. Um He Ho, Jay-Z, Sean Carter, aka Fro Ho. Right now he is now fro ho. Fro ho. No fro yo, that's fro ho. Combed out the dreads and did it. Um, hopped on stage and just started addressing everybody that's been shooting at him over the years. All the allegations, everything got a little bit. He got a little, he squeezed a little bit of everything in it too, right? Um, I have a a multitude of ways of going about this. But let me get your perspective first. Um, we're gonna go we're gonna bounce off of this one because I ain't care. So for for me, I um it I loved it. Because one, just for the culture, you know, it shook everything up again. You know, it's nice to see him pop out on this level. Because he's all like with the 444 album, um, he he did speak at a higher level of like I'm no longer at the level where I'm popping out and addressing these people when they say stuff. You know what I'm saying? I I let my lawyers handle that. So for him to get back into culture and hop out, you know what I mean, it was reminiscent of when him and Nas had their thing. Anywho, the bars, I enjoyed them. I enjoyed the bars too. I enjoyed them. It was it was nice to hear bars. He didn't know music, you know what I'm saying? And he he did hit on some things, like um what the Kanye one. Yeah. I gotta say, I wrote it out in my favorite part because I will forget. This man said, you're no maniac. Watch how sane he acts in my presence. He shrinks. And that's true. And that's absolutely true. Uh I said, Kanye's gonna go on a schizophrenic rat next week. After he gets all his feelings. Um, no, the ones of my favorite is when he addressed uh the Nicki Minaj. Nicki Minaj. That was a good one. Wait till she gets the sluttering. Your kids can't. You, you, your kid can't, your kids can't enough of them. Enough of them. So, but I feel it's a bit hypocritical because wasn't he on GQ just not even a month ago talking about like how the how we need to evolve past all of that? Yep. And if you are ho, you spend the majority of your career just ignoring these shots that's been sent at you, you address him on the record. And I appreciate that for the music. Yeah, but it's just like, yo, bro, do it for do do it in that aspect, you know what I mean? I I I I think Like if he had those bars in a song, which is some fire. Honestly, I do. That would be that would be something else. That would be more impactful, right? Yeah. And yeah. And the style of Hove, right, is it's very unique and is very um a stamp in hip-hop. Yeah. However, for today's age, in these in this under uh uneducated um fans of hip-hop that want to pretend like they know what is hot because little Smurfy, two seats by the corner, um doing trap drill music and stuff like that. No, the thing is. It wasn't for them. Yeah, no, the but the critiques and the pushback from the younger generation just like made me incredibly sad. You know it made me incredibly sad for hip-hop. It made me incredibly sad for rap because how you not know that's what Hove does. He's not gonna be like, you know what I mean, like some redundant, um low-tier, low-hanging fruit. Like, you have to think about what he is saying. But they don't know this side of the culture. They don't they don't understand lyrical breakdowns. Well, what I get that though. What I'm saying is this this moment rap and for this generation, it hasn't been lyricism, it's finally starting to come back now. Is it? But I mean, I feel like it. Uh Kendra Lamar jumped out. We got uh T.I. Juvenile, all our old heads is coming back out and dropping hits and music. We're talking about them. And and with Jay Z doing is I do feel you on that, the way he did cover cut uh carry GQ, but I feel like If if it's in you, it's in you. And no matter how much you try, um we we he has evolved. Like we might hear these these verses of these bars again on the track, or it might lead to something else. I'm sure we're getting the album soon, you know what I mean? I hope we do. I'm sure we are. He didn't do this just to do that, um, not to drop an album. But I do I do believe that it it was important. He he couldn't help it, bro. Like, either when you a lyricist and you come from the time frame he came from, or the freestyles, or being out there and you had to prove what's going on. And it was a legitimate freestyle too. I appreciated that. I appreciated that for sure. It was it was him, the core of who he is. That was Jay-Z. Like that was Jigger, you know what I mean? It was so nice to get that. So while these youngers might not get it now, they'll grow to appreciate it like we did with back in the day. And then if they don't, guess what? It ain't for them. But like that's the thing though. But they're gonna have to hear it. They're gonna have to hear it, and it has to be for them if you're gonna be a car just to become for them. I'm a fan of hip-hop, a fan of rap, I'm a fan of black culture in this whole entirety. So I will consume anything that our people presents, right? I agree. I will like, even if like, even if I'm not really particularly vibing well with the track or with the song or whoever doing it, I'm still appreciating the uh the contribution to the culture, right? But some of these artists lately, you know, I mean, like, and this is the thing about lyrical breakdowns, and that, you know, the average casual fans need to get into more, other than just like listen to beef songs, because everybody was all of a sudden a uh the Sherlock Holmes of uh lyrical breakdowns when it came to whole Dra Drake dissing everybody and uh Kendrick dissing everybody. It doesn't have to be about beef songs and just diss songs that you gotta you need to study the lyrics for. There's a ton of content and a ton of songs out there that you need to listen to that has like meaning substance and concept and like lyrical breakdowns. It's not about beef, it's about life, it's about beef. It's about life, it's about you know what I mean. And then I started thinking about like, you know, um, I turn it back to me because, you know, it's me. But like, you know what I'm saying, like the things that I've said on record and stuff like that. And I went back to my old records and I'm just like, yeah, no, this shit's genius stuff. Like, you know what I mean? Like, it's like I've done the same thing on that list. I really do like break it down bar for bar, like, you know what I mean? It's like, oh wow, that's like that's a work of art right here. And like you think it's gonna be uh about one thing, and it just totally like once you break it down, you'd be like, oh, he used that as a as a little bait and switch. You know what I mean? But he's really getting here. I missed doing that too, I have missed doing that for the past, I want to say, seven to ten years. Well, why did you stop? No, no, because it's the the the the content and the type of music that's been promoted, the mumble rap and all this stuff. Like, we don't even know what these people are even saying, period. But why you it makes lyrical breakdowns even tougher. Like, are there's there's some artists not being a good thing. But there is some artists I do listen to that does require lyrical breakdowns, like a Royce of 5'9, like a Joel Ortiz, like um Lupe Fiasco and stuff like that. And there's some newer artists as well. Like Wallet that do tell stories and they do have good lyrical breakdowns, you know. Zelda's another group. Um, they get lost in the sauce of that. But like, at the same time, that poses my question again, like, go back to being lyrical, or go back to having these bars. Like, the thing about when it's dope, eventually it catches on, you know. I think I get how heart disheartening and maddening it is, but be the way you are, put it in their face. Yeah. Like, when you talk to people, talk in your bars. And then it'll be like, what do you say? That's one of my uh bars, what I meant to say. You know what I'm saying? Like, because I I do understand why you like, it's it's like, why would I give these dope uh bars for it to be unappreciated? Yeah, yeah. It's frustrating. That's frustrating, especially as a lyricist. I do, I get it, especially as ones who can drop bars like that. Yeah, but like when it goes to going back to Hope though, it's just like again, I feel like you know, where is this going to, where is this leading at? You know what I mean? So it's just like culture, bro. Great. It's good for the culture. I'm looking forward to it. But that was for me, I think that was a great, that's that was a hope thing to do. Hope would do that. And Jay Chappelle helped put that on, so like I love that even more. You know what I mean? Like, and him addressing things, like everyone sat there online was like, he's so unbothered, he has too much money, he has Beyonce, he has lawyers, thinking that it didn't bother him. Oh, it bothers him. As an artist, as a man, as clearly it did. Yeah. Clearly, he did a whole five-minute freestyle and combed his locks out because he was sick of it. He was sick of it. You see what I'm saying? Everyone's calling him button locks too. Man. He's like, okay, for hope. And that's how I know he's finished. Looking like a light-skinned app sole. Dead ass. Dead ass. Give me your top five Jay-Z songs. Top five? Yeah. Off the top of your head. Um, Song Cry is one of my favorites. Okay. Uh Blueprint. What's the one? See, man, I'm I gotta think of titles and suck at that. Give me your top five. So I can think. Um, of course, Big Pimpin'. Yeah. Um thinking about songs. I gotta cheat, man. I don't remember the titles. I gotta look it up. Think about the song on the black album that I really liked. I gotta go in order, cause the blueprint. I think Lucifer. Oh yeah, that was good. It's it's it's an honore mission, but it's not. Renegade. Renegade is number two for sure, for sure. Um, I would have I'm not I will put I mean, even this one, 99 Problems is a good one. But I don't think it's a top five trade just yet. Like an honore mission. Heart of the City. Yep. That's the top. That's the that's the top. That's number three. That's number three on my list. I had to go look, man, because I know that's a good one. That's number three on my list. Heart of the City is at. Um, what didn't you do a fave the black? Yeah, the black album? Yeah, the black album. Yeah, that's Lucifer song I tried. Yeah. December 4th is in there. Uh-huh. That was a fire record. Um, no, the black album was a masterpiece for me. Yeah. Um, but I want to go there. There is um Blue Magic on American Gangster. That was good. That was good. And um. Just because it's just a personal favorite of mine, I'm gonna go um Hard Knocks, Hard Knock Life. I was just thinking Hard Knock Life. That's it. That's the original. That's what I needed. That's what I needed. Hard Knock Life. That's it. I agree. That's what I'm saying. Empire State of Mind is a good one. Crown's a good one. Exactly, bro. Yes, he has. No, Jay-Z got records on records on records on records. But the top five is kind of hard to uh create. Seriously. But all the ones we just named are really good ones. That's why I said we gotta do everyone together. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll I'll I'll put more thought into that. I'll come to y'all next episode and give my top ten list. Uh, 444 though. Um, I love the song Lotus Mom. Uh I think it's Glory. I think he called it Glory. Yeah. Yeah. I like Bam on that on that um record. Family Feud is good. Um that's all I'm saying, man. He he, you know. We gotta give it to him. He's definitely part of our culture, and it's nice to see him kind of go back to old back to old Hove, you know what I mean? Like, bro, never forget where you're from. Like, I know where you at, but remember how you got get there. So, you know, it's a reason why it's gonna be what you say, uh, it's gonna cause people a B to mention his name, billion. Mm-hmm. There's a reason. Where you come from. Man, they always they looked up to Hove. I never looked up to them. Oh, I love that one. And then they showed a picture of him sitting down and uh but like you know, a lot of people say, like, you know, a lot of people in the industry do have uh an energy towards Hove because of the fact that, you know, I mean, like, um, he's been accused of just gatekeeping. So, like, is gatekeeping music actually, is it necessary? Do you think it's a necessary thing for to gatekeep? I I don't know if he so much is gatekeeps on purpose. I think he just don't want to deal with all that. You know what I mean? Like, it it comes with issues when you do let folks in and you tell them about this and how to do that, or you put them in the right places, and then it don't work out, or something crazy happened. It falls back on the person who, you know, did that, but you know, gatekeeping is crazy. I mean, it's a crazy concept. I'm gonna say it's a concept, it's a crazy concept to me. It's a crazy concept, but it is necessary, but just like who's doing the gatekeeping uh the base of the conversation, which is the core of the conversation. Gatekeeping, it's so that means right, make sure I'm correct on it, is like uh someone has access to things that can help a lot, or or people that be around them get to it, but they just won't put them on to it, or they block the way to for it to happen. Is that gatekeeping? Yeah, yeah, in a sense, in a sense, yeah. Okay. And a lot of people gatekeep them ego. Like, oh, this person is better than me, so I don't want to give this person any opportunities because they're better than me. Or just like, oh, this person didn't do anything for me, so therefore I'm not gonna do anything for them, or they can't do anything for them. I think gatekeeping is a state of mind because I hop over gates, baby, or I go around them. That you see gatekeeping don't make sense. Someone can't keep the gate from me. It's a gate. What do you mean? It's not one door. Push that thing wide open. Find a way. Yeah. There are it's gates got little slots, ain't it? That's a crazy concept. But I do know it's a real thing because it's been the tale of the time. Mm-hmm. So, mm-hmm. Yeah. Um, and another thing that's like kind of been on my mind too is like the I'm looking at the the social media era and the era that we're in musically. And I'm over here thinking that, you know what I mean, like which rapper that you know that's big right now would completely fail if the social media thing wasn't a thing. Well, like if social media disappeared, which rapper right now you know would just completely fall off. Tory Lane. That don't count. He in jail. I'm sorry, I couldn't help you. Dang. I couldn't help you, I'm sorry. Nah, Tori. Tori's too too much on people's minds. I would just be on the street. Yeah, yeah, he's on a too much. But honestly, someone that's um, mmm. Pretty much all the female rappers these days. I wanna say. Because if it wasn't for someone, I'm sorry. I wish y'all could see my face. I'm sorry. I feel like, you know, sexy red would fall off. I feel that Young Miami would fall off. I feel like who else? The the City Girls band fell off, Lotto fell off. Who else? So Cardi B. Cardi B, no, she's too big. She's too big for that. Oh. She she's up there with with the old girl Meg. So they're up there. They're in that tier. Erica Badu would never fall off. Queen Letifa would never fall off. I I think male rappers will fall off. Yo, yo, money bag, money bag, yo will fall off for sure. I think more male rappers would. Rick Ross would. I don't think Rick Ross would. We didn't know his. Hustle it, hustle it, like. Nobody wanna hear that. But like everybody knows that song. Everybody knows Maybach music, so don't do that to Ross. I'm not saying it. I'm not taking it. Ross don't need social media to to survive it exists. I feel like No, you're right on that. He don't, because he got wing slap and all that stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Um who else? Who who's out there right now? BFG Pac-Man. Now, if you don't know who BFG Pac-Man is. I don't. First of all, what the BFG stand for? And Pac-Man? Like the game? Let me look this person up. See, I don't even I don't know. That's his name. Hold on. I probably put you in the back. Dub Pac-Man, yeah. Hey, big fella. He definitely would, cause I don't even know him now. Man, I I will play you A song. You have got to play something, cause I don't know this man. Free Joe exotic. 15 on fools, I spent that on my coat. Finna grab a chunky ass cube. I ain't stingy with my bitches, I put him on the floor. The windows don't roll down on this whip. I'm shooting off the dough. Five for a show. I ain't coming if it ain't for sure. Just a chop up, but I promise this bitch ain't for sure. Smack my nigga in this head, he try to wipe a hoe. No, you ain't sick, check your tip, cause we'll wipe your nose. Bitch, you really on that. Stop being fake on tip if you ain't really on that. If I break with my bitch, then I'm mad in all the hoes. If I stop this rap shit, then I'm back up in that one bag. Got glock on him, be ready to shoot shit like for show mad. On IG's post, my new bitch got my hoes in the back. You know what I'm doing? Tim ball on a nigga head, get him toe tag. Nigga cap so much in his raps, they got a gun on hat. My brother said a nigga touch grams to give a solo tap. So much dog shit on me, call me shit bag. When we be cable sock with the bitch mag. I don't need to hear nothing else. I'm okay. But no, he used the internet like that's why. I don't even know him, and I be on the internet. But you know what? I got an answer for you that you're gonna be like, you're gonna I think you're gonna feel conflicted. You know who wouldn't who we wouldn't know without the internet? La Russell. Oh no, I feel like um No disrespect to to La Russell, you know what I mean? But like not at all. Not at all, because his backyard body, he would definitely been known around town and he would have worked it up organically, but as fast as it went up without the internet. But like just because his you can tell take up conversation. Who can tell? You could tell that he had lack of media training and media preparation when he did. No, I mean he made it where he got signed to Rock Nation for sure. But what he did after he's been signed, it's been a massive decline in the massive fall off. That's because he went away from the internet. Think about how he even got to being signed. He went into the backyard joints. Yes, it did. It has nothing to do with it. He sold how many albums, like people were paying a thousand dollars just to get his like album online. It was a whole thing. Yeah. Him popping up at different things. The media made it go crazy. Even though he didn't have any training, it made it go crazy, which made us see it and talk about it and be like, word. Like uh people were traveling to the backyard party because it was open to anyone. But the internet showed us that. We wouldn't have known up here in Humboldt. We would have found out, but you see what I'm saying? Yeah, I see what you're saying. That's what I mean. I feel like the social media is responsible for his rise. And his downfall, because he made that song. That's a sign. Jeffrey Epstein's heaven sent. What? Yeah, that was a crazy line. What? And I I think he was like too deep to sleep. Too woke to choke. Hitler was heaven sent, like, yo. I mean, I did it. We all God's children. No, not them. But I don't know what he was doing with that. Um But signing to the label is what messed him up though, because why he ain't popped back out? Because the labels say, uh-uh, we gotta wait till they forget about you and then bring you back. Yeah. Had he not been signed with no media training, he would have, I feel like he would have been back relevant. We'll see. We'll keep an eye on it. We'll definitely keep an eye on it. But the internet. The internet's crazy as hell. Um, what's up? Is that is that it for music? Um yeah, but hold on. No, no, actually it's not. Um, I don't even know if he's considered a part of music anymore to me. Oh. Bring it up. You know what I'm finna bring up. The Diddler. Oh. Or the Diddler. We'll push it. We'll push that back. Okay, so I got another question in. So if you can hang for a day with a celebrity, right? Would would you pick um Michael Jackson or Prince? I know. Prince. I went back and forth too on it. Prince. I probably picked Prince though, because he played basketball. Yeah. He was really good at it. Yeah. And he goes outside. Yeah. Ah! And he goes, and Prince goes outside. I didn't even think about that one. Like much respect to late grade Mocky Jackson and all that stuff. But like, nah, I'm not hanging out with Dude for a day. Can't do it. That's stupid. Can't do it. Can't do it. Would you hang with Whitney or Bobby? Oh, I'm gonna get high either way. Um I'll hang out with Whitney because I feel like Whitney's a goon for real. That's what I'm doing. And I just want to see that. I just want to see that up close and personal. I'm trying to see Nip. That's what they call it in Jersey. Yeah. Yeah, I'm trying to see that side of Whitney Houston for a short time. I got one more. Okay. Would you hang with Drake or Kendrick for the day? Oh, they both just sounds terrible time. But um where are we at? Am I in LA hanging out with Kendrick? Or am I just somewhere else in the world hanging out with Kendrick? Or hanging out with Drake? Is there a specific area? We just we just link it up and just. You just link it up and hang it. Ain't no specific area. Honestly, man, I'll put up with Drake fake self for a day. I do it just because I know it's gonna be women around. You know it's gonna be a good time with Drake. I mean, with kids, it's gonna be deep. It's gonna be deep, conversational, like mind expanding stuff like that. You know what I mean? It's cool, which is cool, which is good, don't get me wrong. But I'm already on that type of time. If I'm trying to escape that type of time, I'm going to Drake. Can't do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, even though I know what the deal is with Drake, he said. I'm kicking it with Drake. I ain't even gonna hold it. I am kicking it with Drake. I love Kendra. I respect everything. I look up to him at all when it comes to the pen. Yeah. But uh, I'm kicking it with Drake, my boy. Yeah, man. I'm finna have a whole story like of what happened. Oh, yeah. I already know. Yeah, I definitely get it with Drake. I'm hanging with Drake, man. He looked like he's fun. Yeah, yeah. Would you all right? I got one, I got one. Would you hang out with either fat Joe or Joe Buddha? Oh, that's good. Mmm. Who would you rather hang out with for a day? Question. With Joe Budden. Is this old Joe Budden or now Joe Budden? Now Joe Budden. Mature Joe. Now that's harder. Um, dang. I'm going with Fat Joe, though. Yeah, I want to hear the lies. I'm going with Fat Joe. I wanna hear all the lying ass stories. I wanna hear all the tales. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Fat Joe's cool, man, but yeah, no, fat Joe could be fat Joe probably hilarious in that way. Yeah, fat Joe be fun. Probably before some good food, I get some family vibes and get some good. You know what I mean? Like some stories. Yeah, some stories are gonna be good. And then you're gonna ask yourself, yo, is this true? Is this true? Exactly. Is he lying to me? He's lying to me. That didn't happen. But yeah, um, all right, cool. Um we done with music? We can be done with music. All right, all right, all right, all right, all right. Uh let's take a music break. Okay, I'm with that. I'm with that right now, man. What are you feeling though? Ooh, let's do it. What you doing though? Not BFB pack, man. I tell you that much. Oh, no. We're gonna pack that right on up out of here. Right on out of here. I don't even know how that stumbled on your time. I mean, that was on it was big on TikTok. It was it was super big on TikTok. TikTok just is for everything. So do you think like, you know, do you speaking of, do you think like TikTok destroys like attention spans like beyond beyond repair? You know how um you should be weary of the person that is actually and really like legitimately for everybody and everything, that's TikTok. Okay. Use it to your discretion. Mmm. It's too much on A. Because I feel like everything that's on TikTok right now is being like manufactured or engineered for engagement. Yeah. Well, the way that TikTok picks up your hours or what you're into and like just takes you down a rabbit hole. Endless, uh. Endless stuff. I learned so much useless information. Yeah, I love useless information because eventually you can use it. But um, I don't like when it's too much, though, it's diluted, you know what I'm saying? Like, some some of the things on there be like, yeah, get these people out of here. I be feeling the same way, not for nothing. But it's like a free speech platform, I believe. Is it? Because a lot of people are saying whatever the a lot of people say some stuff out there getting shadow banned, they're getting like, you know, kicked out of their Buddha that they're they're talking too much real stuff. Yeah, because TikTok do have some real stuff on it, though. I ain't even gonna hold you. No, they do. They really do. They reminded me of being in the gate program on there. I said, Oh my god. I went through all of that, swear to God. What are you talking about here? But Jesus. See, y'all ain't trying to get me. Hey Say fuck the Drake and bop the G Lock. He run up Betty Kip.

They kinda I don't think that like I think voice is a blend. I think he's bridging the gap a little bit more. Ransom, I would give you that. He is a little bit too like, you know, his uh his whole style is giving me like street J electronica. Yeah for sure. Um but he's more consistent on putting out music and stuff like that. But like the instrumental, the production choices, his sound of beats and stuff like that is very um homage, like very old school vibe. So I give you that for ransom. I think Royce is trying to bridge the gap a little bit because of his latest projects. Yeah. And Jed is just Jed. I mean, Jed is not said, yeah. I don't understand why I don't understand that either. More people aren't talking about him. Yeah. Honestly. Uh they say they say Jed does hummina humina raps. So what? Yeah. It's hummina humina. Because I ain't hear not one hummina, humina. He switches up like the way I know. Hey, he does. You can understand everyone. The generation of reaction steamers. Yeah. Um reaction steamers, man, yeah, yeah. I'm trying to think of one more that's underrated that I think. Not underrated, but he knew, and I got a show Lord of South Carolina Trap Dicky. Because you don't know who is tapping, Trap Dicky. Trap Dicky's good. I love I'm so proud of him. I'm so proud of the whole team, you know what I'm saying? So Trap Dicky. Okay. That'll do it for me. All right, let's hear about the micropenis scene around the world. First of all, you know, I thought it was funny because I honestly forgot about Dickie, which is wild work as long as I've been alive. Never thought I would say those words, honestly. Yeah. Um, but I did until like his face popped up or something or that. Remember, I was like, oh my God, he's still in jail. Right? And then, of course, then now this dropped. Right. For those who don't know, a uh scandal has been uh happening recently, like thinking past like day or two or so. Yeah. Um there's been a sex tape that's been leaked uh with 50 Cent's Baby Mama, uh Daphne Joy, and uh Adult Entertainment. The dude she was with, it was her guy. Diddy. And Diddy weird behind. Diddy weird behind and in walking around, dropping baby oil, playing with his, you know, the little thing behind the door, the doorstopper, playing with his little doorstopper. Um in the worst way ever, being weird. But it makes a lot of sense now. Um, yeah, no, his behavior, his attitude, his whole demeanor, um definitely does make a lot more sense now, more than ever. Um but I feel like it's it's a gross violation as well. It's a very gross violation. I mean, these people are enjoying a time behind closed doors. Just because Diddy films it, you know what I mean, doesn't mean it's for public consumption. Yeah. Uh-uh. Nobody in the video leaked it. Somehow it got out, but you know, that's that's some Diddy files. That's some Diddy files. Because of the raid. Yeah. Because of the raid, if somebody in the office, you know what I mean, probably like that joint. Sending joint, probably leak it out just because, like, you know, we we want to further embarrass this man and further for being a freak. Yeah. He locked up for being a freak. He's yeah, he's pretty much locked up for being a freak. Like, you know. Which is crazy to me. You know what I mean? Like, we all saw, like, you know, what he did at Cassie, which is like deplorable, horrible. Like, we're not making excuses for that. Oh no, he should be locked up for that and putting GHB. That I agree with the locker four years. Uh, I feel like that's why he's got locked up. Even though those weren't the official charges. It wasn't. I feel like that's why he got locked up. That's why I'm glad he's locked up. Yeah, no, make sure. That's why I hold it. I feel like he deserved to be locked up for that, too. But the charges that he got hit with. Yeah, no, it doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense. He's just a little nasty man. Yeah, a little nasty man. And he knew he couldn't fit in or get in, so he liked to watch him and dictate it. We always seen Diddy in the bed talking about Tay Daddy, Tay Dan. That's literally him. I didn't know Diddy was such a cuck. That's crazy. Yeah, I mean, true story. Boy, got a baby cook. You say doorstopper. Um, like no, man, like in 50 Cits on online, like pretty much ragging on uh Diddy and stuff like that. And I feel like, yo, man. I mean, I get it, man. Like, you've seen your baby mama getting cracked by a monster. I mean, I would feel, I would feel some sting. I would try to laugh that off. I would try to laugh off the pants. But it wasn't Diddy's monster. It wasn't Diddy's monster. It was somebody else, man. But it's just still, it's on camera. And it's it's yeah. It makes sense why he went by Puff Daddy. Puff. Oh my god. Because it's a little puff. A little puff. A little cheese puff. I don't know. Cheese puff, my god. And the way you never mind, I'm done. He had a little tall little baby. Like, that's so crazy. But it actually does make sense. Honestly, it's like, and like I say 50 seconds. Recipes to Kim Porter, man. Like, that's that's crazy. You gotta deal with that and now we know where she ain't telling no lies. When that memor finally gets found or dropped, it's gonna be crazy. It's gonna be a lot. It's gonna be crazy. And that's why, ooh, see, Diddy? That's another reason why you say that. Um I I feel for the girl like Daphne. I saw that happen to the girl. But I feel like this this I mean, okay, and that pose the question like, why do people secretly enjoy the celebrity downfalls? If you think about it, did he just like the latest example? But we there's so many circumstances. Me personally, I don't get why people are fixated on celebrities in the in the first place. Like if you like someone because of the songs they sing or the or the movies they act in, or any of that stuff for the entertainment, sure. Like that. But don't get don't attach yourself to the person or idolize the person just because they pose uh or they they possess a talent that you don't have. I don't think you should idolize it, do you? Understand. If we all were built and made the in the same all the way, and could do all the same things, what would be the point? How do you learn if everybody is? Just become your own celebrity. Like, really, like double. I think you should really do that energy. Like, no, take that same energy and focus that on yourself. What is something that about you that any because everyone has a unique something, not everybody's the same. No, I agree. Not everybody's the same. But everybody can't be a singer, but why do we listen to songs? Why do you do music? Because we want to touch people. Right. So if everybody can do music, they wouldn't listen to us. So it's it's a purpose behind it, but I don't think you should idolize. I don't think you should idolize it either, but I and But that does happen. And then it does happen, and that's why people love seeing the downfall. I'm over here thinking, thinking like, dang, that's whenever I see somebody like who was doing well, like in a in an avenue or something like that, like I'm a I'm a rapist fan. So when the whole Ray Rice incident happened, right? I that that completely like just disappointed me and broke broke me down because he was a great, great running back for us, you know what I mean? But like, you know, unfortunately, he got into he did what he did, and now he paid the price of that. But like that's just again, uh tiny example for a lot of celebrities, athletes, people that, you know, we are a fan of their work, and they did something in their personal life that disappointed us, and now we're here just a lot of people just cheering for that and be like, oh yeah, see, that person ain't nothing at all. Like, you know, there's nothing special about that person. Ha ha, you're just like us. But like, yo, these are human beings. They're they're they are just like us. That is the move of life, and I understand what you're saying, they are like us, but when you I mean, you don't, you know, you don't train to be the best running back, you know what I mean, and not realize what's gonna come with that. Like, you can't be beating on folks at that level, especially when you train the way you do. Yeah, a lot of people don't have like yeah, like So you know what? You you loved it when we was praising you for being the great. So how you gonna be mad when we see like you like to beat women? Yeah. You know what I'm saying? And and like a lot of celebrities and a lot of celebrities have a like, you know, uh a fake persona they put out to the people that that's I've either been manufactured or crafted. So just like, you know, you're you're um going about that fake persona that you're oh, because there's cameras around and there's like, you know, media training. We just talked about media training. Image yourself like that. I think it's important to have a separation, but never lose your moral. But but here's the thing like here's the here's the thing that really like and perplexes me. And I'm pretty sure that I am pretty perplexing when it comes to people because they don't know where to what box to put me in. You know what I mean? Because I feel like if you're just authentically yourself, you know what I mean, you can survive through anything that, you know what I mean, uh the trials and tribulations want to throw at you. And like people talk about, oh, I love authentic people, I love real people, I love it, I love it, I love it. But then they reward these outrageously fake personalities. So it's just like what, what, what, where are we at, people? I I I feel like do you love realness and authentic or do you love the fake stuff that's being thrown in our face? I do feel where you're coming from, right? But some people are just fake, no matter what, no matter what they put on, they fake in it, it's gonna always come out. But um, for ones who are genuine, you know what I mean? I think it's important, like, that's why we have artist names, right? We have our um name that was given to us by birth, we have a nickname, in my case, you know what I'm saying, nickname, and then we have our artist name. And while all swag chemistry, that's me, you know what I mean? Erica, that's like I'm in that, but Erica, it you're not gonna get Erica and chemistry at the same time if it's chemistry mode. Okay. You feel me? I'm still authentic, it's still me. It's still you, but it's a different um aesthetic to it, it's a different reason. I mean, I understand people are multifaceted in this. So that's why I feel I understand that, but like, but at least be outwards with your multifaceted. You know what I mean? Like I'm a multifaceted person. There you go. Be outwards with outwards. So I'm outwards with it. You know what I mean? I'm not one way out in public, but then a whole different person inside closed doors. I am who I am 24-7, three. I'm heart for heart under any circumstances, and around any people and stuff like that. So just care uh freestyle and do all that uh stuff for you. But like Erica might not feel like it. Swag definitely ain't. Yeah, man. Like Asad, Asad, Asad would be that guy outside that you know I mean, you know, the the That's outside. That's that character, but Malik is. Malik is like, you know, he moves a little differently, yeah. He's chilling. He's in the cuts a lot. He's intellectuals thinking, deep thoughts, and reading books. You know what I'm saying? Like, yeah, so like I understand that, but I'm still that same person outside whoever. Your artists are the same. Like, yeah, yeah. So it's just like, but like then. But that's just you and I. Right, but when you think about like then you have people who have manufactured personas. You know what I mean? Like straight up. Like he just slinging and danging and down and stuff like that. Like he's the man's man, but then we see time, time tells up. Time tells you everything. Emotionally and mentally, ugh. You know what I mean? No, time will literally tell you everything you need to know about a person. If you just wait, if you literally just wait for it, like you know what I'm saying? Because anybody can say anything, they could present themselves as crazy. That's coverage, that's surface-level stuff. How you love the music, but don't want to give it to the person who made it. Wow. Yeah, again, and that that's showed character. So if you like, if you're thinking like the great Star Wars quote, don't trust your eyes, they'll deceive you, type of thing. You know what I mean? That means what Yoda meant by that is you give things time to reveal everything that you need to see. Like you can't take everything at face value. You can't take everything at surface level. You really can't. No, you gotta let that person show you over and over. And I think that's why I think that's what people's gripe about me is because I feel like I feel like they know I'm seeing past the BS. Like, you know, whatever you're trying to show me, I know that's not it. It's not gonna fly out. So show me what, show me who you really are. And people don't want to show me who they really are, which is up to their discretion. It's all their right to it, but it's like I like just know that I know that whenever I look at you, I know that that's not that's not you. You feel what I'm saying? I know there's something else about you, I know there's something deeper about you, and I'm looking past the surface what you want me to see. I think that's- And that rubs people off a bomb. I think you would prefer for people to show you their flaws and the ugly side of them versus coming at you with, you know, don't glitter me to death. Yeah. You read me to death so that you can see the good through. Yeah, man, because I know, because I already know that, you know, that is I already know it's there. Yeah, but so yeah, so let's cut past through all that surface level stuff. Yeah. Let's get right to the nitty-gritty, and then I'm like, okay, but then you can also be like, so now that relief is out. That's an interesting concept, man. You feel me? Like, yeah, you show me, show me the show me the bad. Don't show me the goods. You know, that's why, that's you know, it's interesting that you say that though, because most people, all of us were taught to um put the best foot forward. But yeah. Um I hate that. The whole, you know, uh, you know, when you go outside, first repression means everything, yeah. But you you want to like nothing. And I know that's not true. Because I know that's not true. Show me, show me that first, right? And then show me what you can do. Let me know that. Let me see that. Let me see that real quick. Versus you acting like everything's sweet and you don't have an anger problem. You're not, man. And then now we get in there, or we hanging out, and I see that you will fight anybody. That's why I'm like, yo, that's why I give everybody just time. When they're like they're interacting with me, I'm just like, I'm gonna wait and see. I'm not gonna be all, I'm not gonna buy into this off-rip. So if someone shows you the ugly first, right? And you're showing me you still stay to see the good, or does that run you away? No, of course, because again, like we we have a duality between us, right? I mean, yeah, like you're showing me who you want to be, but show me who you are. If you show me who you are, then you can show me who you want to be, and then now I'll be invested to help you get there to who you want to be. That is interesting. Because I know who you are. I could better, like, you know, I could better connect, I could better connect with you, I could better interact with you if I know all the bad stuff first. I could better do that. Because I know that's that's that's reality. You should start your conversations when dating. You should be like, can you just tell me um all the things about you like your own? That's gonna that's gonna that's gonna run them off. That's gonna scare them up. I promise you they will. Let me tell you why. Because I'm telling you, they will be like, uh, he's doing too much. But then no, no, you have one job after this, though, because you have to let them know, like, they're gonna be like, what? And be like, no, I'm serious. But you can't run after they tell you. I'm not gonna do that. I never run. You can't. Like, what if what if uh I seen this uh post the other day, which this maybe think? But if you like too wild and you be on some wild and crazy stuff, I'm gonna be like, yo, yay, not for nothing. But I ain't with that. No, no, not if not for nothing. That's wild, that's crazy. If it's like, if you're not doing anything to mess with kids or like, you know, yeah, yeah. On the week or stuff like that. You know what I mean? Pretty much everything else is pretty much open. Like, I'm not gonna judge you. I'm not gonna judge you. I'm not gonna judge you. And you're not gonna run. I'm not gonna run. Okay. Yeah. I say this because uh I seen a post, which is like funny, because like uh the dude who this woman was uh with, when they got together, she said in the post, like it's like she she got she beat up her face is toe up. Um but she said he uh he told her in the beginning, you know, if I ever get drunk around you, run, get away from me. You know what I mean? Like, don't stay around, leave me where I'm at. Okay. I don't care. She told you, yeah. The dude told her that. Okay. Because he had never been drunk around her, right? And so, like, they were dating. I guess as they got like more intuitive, it's like, if I ever get drunk around you, get away from me. Like, I'm a completely different person. I'm I'm no. Okay. She said, okay. She acted like, you know, she was like, he'll never do that to me though. Like, you know, thinking like, you know, he told her that, so like that's love. Well, he got drunk and she didn't go away. And I guess she got on his nerves and he beat, he beat the Wow. Meet up. Wow. Meet up. He did. And you know, she posted it on Facebook and she was like, I don't know how to feel though, because he did tell me if he got drunk around me to get away from him. And not for nothing, man. That's that that dude. But that's like that dude is wrong for that, to be honest with you. Because he told her up front. That's that's fine and dandy. If you're being transparent and being open about it up front, that's cool. But like, why are you a different person while you're under the influence of alcohol? I mean, that's a reference. Like, yeah, but that's like some deep cycle, like cycle and like cycle analyzing that you need to do. But that's telling your flaws up front. But that's telling your flaws up front, which is cool, but it just said it all sides, but then everything was great. So, like, but with that being said, like when she heard that information, that would have prompted her to at least like try to get dude to open up about why that is. Why is it are you so quick and prone for anger, temper, and violence whenever you're drunk? Is that the only outlet you feel? Let's try a different outlet. You know what I mean? Let's be let's get you in an MMA class or a boxing class. Let's just find another way you can like exercise your demons and your anger without putting harm into somebody you're claiming to care about and love. I like that um the thought process on that. Um I do we gotta test this theory out of coming with the flaws first. Yeah. And then, you know, seeing what comes from that. Because like it's but why he why he shouldn't have beat her up. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like that. I don't, I'm not okay in it. Yeah. But he did tell her his flaws, and she made a decision to stick through that. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? So like I was just thinking about what you're doing. We have to deal with the consequences of our choices, people. Like, we're dealing, we're presenting with the choices, and it's up to us to make a decision. So, and it okay, I I like that because why, you know In every decision that you make, there's going to be a consequence one or the other way. It doesn't mean like consequences is a bad thing. There's good consequences, there's bad consequences. But if you're given, you're presented a choice, you have a power to make a decision. And whatever that decision may be, yeah, the variables change, things, circumstances would change, you gotta learn to be adaptable, but you have to keep in mind that the core things at the end at the end of the day, you made a decision. And also, once you make a decision, cool. But in her case, the minute he hit you the first time, because the way her face looked, you should have ran and left him. Yeah. She stayed and probably trying to get away. And then she said, like, okay, he's getting drunk, he's getting, he's getting wild. I'm gonna peace out, see you tomorrow, type of thing. That has to happen. I wouldn't have stayed around. When we're gonna go, especially if he told. Like I would like when he's sober, I'll have those conversations and then like we'll then then go play it by ears. Like, what if uh it's a girl you talk to and she tells you one of her um things is like she gets easily jealous. So like if she sees the girl smiling too hard at you, she just wants to be acknowledged in the moment. Is that like a flaw to you or is that something you do? Yeah, but it's just like again, that will lead to conversations. That's no, that's better about like because what's the point of connecting with somebody if you can't learn from another point of view? Would you like your perspective? Since you know like that triggers her a little bit, would you start introducing her to folks when she's around? Yeah, if she's around, like, oh yeah, it's my girl. Whoop-de-woop, da-da-da. But it's just like if she's not your girl and y'all just dating, but it's kind of like exclusive, how would you care carry that? Like, who know, because all right. If that's the case, then I mean, that's where the the delusions have to be in check. That's where the delusions have to be in check. Like, yo, um, I'm not this dude. I'm not this dude's girl. Why am I getting upset? So I'm not introduced. If you introduce them, but you wouldn't introduce them, like, you know, um Which I never heard this neither, so this is why I'm asking, like, um, you know, we introduce them like that's my girl, but like, uh, this, this, this is such and such, and we're exclusively dating. Oh, I wouldn't say all this. Like, that's what I'm saying. So how do you introduce it? Like, no, no. But they want to be introduced. It would be, this is my friend. And we out here tonight together. We out here tonight. Together. Together. That's I think that's the key word. Okay. Yeah, because I understand women are possessive and stuff like that. So, you know. They and they want, you know, always want to be acknowledged, though. Like, if you out with someone, acknowledgements, yeah, yeah. Like, if you if you're dating someone and they take you into their environment, you want them to introduce you in a way, or or or do you not care either way? I don't, I'll introduce you. I'll introduce myself. So if they don't introduce you at all, you won't care. There will be no point because I already introduced myself. But you wouldn't care. I wouldn't care. Nah. You are an interesting one. What that leads to my question. I told you I had some random. You got a random question. Because I didn't have a question. No, you got it. You got it. Because I know what you're gonna say on this, but I want to know, because we always get it from a woman's people, right? Um, so arranged marriages, right? Uh, would you do it's a versus would you do an arranged marriage uh where y'all have money, but there's no love and no chemistry. Oh the sex ain't even all that. But there's money. But there's is it's money, it's longevity, it's generational wealth. Like it's a power move for the arranged marriage. Okay. You know what I mean? Versus uh marrying the love of your life and y'all, y'all vibe and everything, but y'all live check to check. In the money situation, there's no chemistry, nothing. Even the sex is bad. It's no chemistry, bro. The sex ain't even all that. Like, you can be around them, but like, that's cause, you know, you gotta be around them. But when it comes to the future of things, and y'all both had to understand it about the babies, uh, everything taken care of. You got you got longevity. But you absolutely have no love. But there's longevity, is it respect at least? Do we respect each other? Are we honest with each other? Do we communicate? Is it everything else but the love and the vibes and the if you ain't got no love and vibes, you ain't doing too much communicating. You just checking in like a checklist with the person, I would think. Alright? But versus you marry the love of your life. And we do we're we're just tackling life together. Y'all even, you know, you live in check to check, but every now and then when them taxes come, y'all can squeeze it out and you know, go and have a vacation or do something, but it's it's it's rare and in between. But y'all got love, but you check to check. So it's stability and longevity versus love and bond. Chemistry, yeah. Being happy. Oh Lord. Oh, and also, there's no cheating. Damn! Cause I knew you were gonna try to come with something. I just thought about that. Damn! Nah, there's no cheating. Because with arranged marriages, though, that's what comes with it. You can't make them look crazy, and with someone with the love of your life, why would you want to cheat? So there's no cheating. I mean, I'm not gonna cheat on the love of your life. Well, I know, that's why I thought about it. No cheating, though, because that's disrespectful to the culture. Man, they ain't gonna catch me. I do understand you on that. But that's not an option, too. Pick one. Yeah, I love when I can stump you. Damn. But you gotta pick one though, especially with the way your views are on certain things. Cause you do, you did say the whole podcast back up. And in this, hold up, hold up. In this, in this, I'm on the money situation. Oh, I know. That's why I threw the money. I thought about you on the money situation. I mean, we say you talk about kids. How you gonna have how you gonna make kids with a sex trash and there's no kids. Because your nuts, you your sperm still goes. What do you mean? You know, oh come on now. I ain't gonna put that on, but you can you know. You ain't had no kids. And our kids grow up seeing their parents have no love. Well, yeah, because that's the house. But they good for life, anything they want, you know? They covered and their kids covered, you know. They nappo babies. Damn, this is a good one. This is a really good one. You gotta pick one though in the next two minutes. You can always, you know, walk it back in the way. We're gonna walk this back. We can always walk this back. Because I got putting it because I do this on to it. No, but you gotta pick one now. Just because, but you can't walk it back. Like this is not so insolid. Yeah. Give me the money. And I knew you were gonna pick that one. Let me tell you why, because you I know that's why I was thinking about your, yeah. Right? And but the long-term skills. Yeah, give me all of that. As a provider, that's how you want to do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But dang, no love. That's what I'm saying. That's gonna be rough. That's gonna be rough, dog. And if you cheat the whole contract out, so you lose the kids in the money in. Damn. We're gonna walk it back, though. We're gonna walk it back, though. Because I was thinking about it too, right? So in my end, when I wrote it, I was like, damn. Because in the first situation, because it's like it's bigger than me, because I'm trying to like, you know, um do things that we like to do. Like, like, no, really, really put like, you know, the the kids in the best position possible, even though they're the position I've been in. That's what you're doing. And like that, and me, like, don't get me wrong, the living and check to check is very sustainable. It's sustainable for the most part. Well, because it's two checks, huh? Because it's two checks, you know what I mean? It is sustainable for the most part. And the tax time is lit, that is good and stuff like that, but it's like the long-term security is up in the air. Yeah. And then it's just like that makes me nervous a little bit. In this in this new position that I'm in right now in life. And love, again, love is so fleeting though, because you can love me one day and then hate me the next day. Nah, it's real to find a person though, that's your person, though. Like, that's why I'm not gonna be able to do that. No, this is my person person. It's your person person, now this ain't nobody that's fleeting, it's your person person. Like, I mean, that means y'all lean it no matter what. Nah, she ain't going nowhere in here. She loves you so much, bro. Yeah, I mean, your beats thinking she's gonna wash them joints and talk about it. Y'all gonna laugh. Because I want that too. But then, you know, like, you know, sometimes y'all might have to decide between um, y'all got two cars, but maybe you have to use one car that week because you gotta do, you know, gas for everybody to get here with it. But also have food so the kids don't know no struggle. Or your son playing football and he need shoes. You know what I'm saying? But it's the love of your life. So y'all make it happen. But it sometimes it's a struggle. And you know, you gotta hope them kids gonna bring the generational with it. Right, and I've been uh but see, uh, the reason why I made that first uh pick the first because I've been in this, I'm in the situation where I'm struggling and stuff like that. And it's very, very stressful. I understand both sides. It's very, I understand both sides too myself, but it's just like, you know what I mean? Like, dang, that's a that's a good one. That's a good one, right? That's a good one. That's a good one. At first I was like, arranged, because I'm gonna cheat. That's what I said. Same thing. And my mind's a yeah, I'm gonna do it. I ain't even gonna cheat. I'm gonna have you one because I know I can't, so I gotta have one to understand the program. You know what I mean? You can find one of those. I'm a little, I'll I I know me. I'm I'm a romantic at heart, so I'm gonna choose love my life. We're gonna show, but when that tax comes, we gotta have about four or five kids, though. Cause tax money. The most kids. That's tax is working to pay with the more kids. Yeah, that's true. That's why they want us to have kids in this, ain't that dog? Let me shoot up all the clubs. That's why you get to sect me tomorrow. All right, you wanna just uh do you got any more questions? I got random questions. It's up to you. Huh? You got any more questions? Because I'm good. I got some would you rather, but go ahead. Oh, so we can go. Matter of fact, do the would you rather? Oh, let me get it. Yeah, we'll do that. Let's do a couple of them. Um would you rather go broke chasing your dream or stay comfortable doing something that you hate? Oh, that's uh ain't no hot. Take that. See, y'all, we can't make this up. This is live in the moment. Oh my God. Yeah. Okay, okay, you know what? I'm not winning anymore. Uh, you say go broke chasing my dream. Or be comfortable, you know what I mean? It's comfortable and stable. But If you do something that you hate, you hate it. Man, I'm gonna go broke chasing my dream. Let me tell you why. Okay. Because hopefully your dream turns into a reality. So while you ain't getting no money, you wealthy and other people loving you. That sounds dumb. Yeah. It's not realistic. That's not for me. That's honestly like for the dreamer who dreams. Like I'm a dreamer who dreams. But for like reality purposes, I'm I'm the take me. You gotta start saying take me out the equation. Okay, because there's a difference between being broke. The question is, would you rather? But it's it's the difference between being broke and wealthy. Yeah. Okay? You can be broke and still live your best life. Because credit cause credit is real. Okay, I don't, as long as I can run it. But um, dang, I don't know. I probably I'm I I know me. Oh man, but I got my sister, my niece and nephews. You know what? Reality-wise, especially like once you get older, um, I I probably would for my future work the job that I hate. Yeah, that's where I'm at right now. And honestly, because I I've I've gone broke chasing. I find the fun outside of my job the best of my ability, but I'll hate it there. Mm-hmm. But yeah, if it pays for my future and make sure my my my family, me, I'm good, I can leave something behind and not struggle. Because I have, like you said, I'm I'm I'm gone broke for this dream. Exactly. You know what I mean? Exactly, exactly. But I don't regret any of it. And you know, it's not for everybody though. Everybody can't make it like how we have, bro. And look, I mean, look how we got, like, we don't sometimes I look back like, how we get here? You know what I'm saying? That's because we chased our dream. So we ain't rich, we, you know, we motherfuckers, you know, I mean we broke, but we wealthy in other ways, so. But that ain't gonna work out for everybody. So the reality is you if you gotta, you know, work a job that you hate, but it it sustains your life, go ahead and do that until you find another one or find joy outside of it. Okay. One more. Would you rather have elite confidence with average talent or elite talent with insecurity? Bing bing. Two in a row. Say that again. Would you rather have elite confidence but your average in talent? Or you can have that elite talent, but be so insecure about it. Child, give me my goddamn elite talent, honey, because I ain't there. I don't do no average nothing, baby, unless we talking math and averages, honey. I'm sorry. Um, because confidence can be taught, but uh my talent, that's what's gonna get you there. Even if you stutter in Stanley, eventually you can stutter and Stanley said a sentence. Who would you pick on that one? You thought you was gonna use it. No, give me an elite talent. Give me a lead talent. I'll work. Insecurity doesn't resonate. I mean, I don't want insecurity, but it's better. I'd rather be insecure than average. If I know my talent is elite and be if I do something and someone say, yo, that is freaking uh boop boop, insecurity's gone through the window. The more hype you get because your talent is elite. It belongs. And the more you display your elite talent and the more people uh, you know. You better talk to yourself. You saying I got elite talent? I like your bars. I love your wordplay. You know what I mean? I really do. I've always been But I'm not insecure, buddy. I don't think you're insecure. I'm just saying, you know, you say the more you put it out, they the insecure go away. Like I don't like even the worst, but I'll take insecure. Okay. Over average. But I I do think you should. You got bar play. You really do. You got some dope bars, bro. Alright, alright. And you like in anime and all that, so he be using all kinds of stuff. Alright, what else you got? Alright, alright, alright. Alright, so uh this is a uh relationship talk, but it's personnel, like to you. So, um now this is a double-sided question. Alright. Um, what is your love language? Oh, um, in the order? Or like the top top two or three? I don't care about none of that. Give me quality time, give me physical touch, and give me words of affirmation. I feel all three of those, those are mine as well. Now, what is your love language to someone else? Well, but it depends on what they what they like, honestly. You gotta pick one. Which one do you thrive at better? Like for me. I thrive at words of affirmation. Okay. Acts of service. And yeah, pincicle touch. I think those those those are the three, those are the three things that quality time, because again, like with time, what what is quality time for me may not be quality time for you, or what like, you know, it's very different in degrees, but I know for sure. But that's your love life. But I know for sure, that's my love language. But I know for sure people love it when things are being done for them. Yeah. They love being hyped about, being talked to in a good way, and they love being touched, right, touched on. So for me, uh, my love language for others, like I agree, like with your other one. But physical touch to me, um, that should happen if you're with somebody. So, like, I don't understand why it's part of something. But um, words of affirmation with my partner to me. You know what I'm saying? But for me, it's acts of service for my partner or whoever I'm with. Like, if I see something that needs to be handled or taken care of, that's my love language. Um, what's an instant turn off for you? Bad hygiene. Bad hygiene. Automatically. Automatically, it's bad hygiene. It's a smell I don't like. It's a taste I don't like. Instant turn off for me is if you don't make me laugh. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't do it. If you're not funny, but you don't have to be. I mean you gotta be the most funny. Yeah, if you're not funny, but you can appreciate human and you know what's it? But it's funny. You say dark things, I need a little human. Yeah, yeah. You can't be. You just playing like literal, like, what do you mean? Oh lord. Doing whatever. You better go find somebody like you. Alright, I got one more for you. All right. Is lying the same thing as cheating? No, I don't think so. Um, in some instances, they do go hand in hand. Um, but in most instances, like a lot of couples lie to each other every day. But they ain't not cheating at all. They're not cheating at all, but you know, but they tell a little white lie. They'll tell a little white lie here and there, you know what I mean? Yeah, they don't want to hear they're not. Yeah, because they know how that person is, so they're gonna say something they don't really mean or they don't really want to, just say, just to kind of keep the peace or whatever the case be, but they're not gonna be, they're not gonna share their honest views. Because it could be the most harmless thing ever. Yeah, true story. Right? Yeah, true story. And um, yeah, no, that's uh, I mean, yeah, but if you are, but like, you know what I mean, because if someone is cheating, they're also lying as well. But you know what I mean, like, but again, cheating is just uh it's such a a benign concept to me. What do you mean? I mean, okay. Benign? We'll we'll tune into the next episode, episode 45 of the video. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Episode 45. Being benign is correct. Episode 45, I'll expand my expand more on those thoughts. But this is me, right? This joint now. This is this is. Hold on, before you end it, I got one more. I got one more. I got one more. We got time. We got time. I got it. We listen and we don't judge.

And um they were so proud about it and couldn't wait until everybody was a drunk. Like they got me so drunk. I'm talking about they I literally felt like I would say that. And I I did.

You did not have sex with Whoopi Goldberg and I mean she did have eyebrows. But I denied it. And I felt bad. But I eventually did own up to it years later when I grew up. But I did do that.
