What's your breaking point? What amount of money would make you compromise your values? These aren't hypothetical questions – they're real dilemmas faced by celebrities, artists, and everyday people whose worst moments become public spectacle.

This raw, unflintered episode tackles the disturbing trend of public exposure and character assassination in our social media age. Drawing from recent celebrity scandals involving NDAs and compromising situations, we explore the moral complexities behind the headlines. When someone's private life becomes public fodder, we rarely consider the psychological devastation left in the wake of these exposures.

I share my personal experience signing up for military service at 19 years old, lured by a $20,000 signing bonus that ultimately cost me irreplaceable time with my newborn son. This illustrates how we often focus on immediate benefits while underestimating long-term consequences – a pattern repeated throughout the entertainment industry with predatory deals that trap artists in compromising situations.

The most troubling aspect of our exposure culture is the impulse to destroy others through revelations and public shaming. What do people gain from exposing others' secrets and vulnerabilities? Does temporary attention justify potentially destroying someone's career, mental health, or even pushing them toward suicide? As I remind listeners, "karma is a motherfucker" – the negativity you put into the world has a way of finding its way back to you, often multiplied.

Before you participate in someone else's destruction, ask yourself: would you want your worst moments exposed for public consumption? Would you want your family to witness your humiliation? The answer reveals everything about your character and humanity. Subscribe now for more unfiltered conversations that challenge conventional thinking and explore the moral dilemmas of modern life.

Speaker 1:

And I just want to welcome y'all to 4 Steppers Only, where we tell you to sit down and watch a motherfucking step a step. I'm Jack Shit, that little motherfucker that you know in real life, but I just I'm so sick and tired of hearing about this ditty shit Like real shit, because, the way I see it is, some of y'all get manipulated for a perk, some of y'all get manipulated for blood, but y'all saying this, oh, it's so wrong for her to do this and do that and oh, my god, he utilized her this way and that way. Man tell me, or not? Shit. The same way. Folks run away from every other problem or every other situation they can. They have the option to so, with her talking about something she was fucking and sucking, got sores in her mouth and shit from fucking and sucking random dicks and being exposed to STDs and this, that and that, when are you going to say enough is enough? I'm just saying, because I mean shit. The average joe, small, yes, you can be exposed to certain shit. Some of y'all gets exposed to certain shit for even cheaper. Some of y'all keep going back, like playing russian roulette, shit, oh shit. She said she had her period time, but I ain't catch it. I'm gonna go back for some hope, you dumb motherfucker. But I mean I do feel sorry for. But I mean I'm pretty sure this motherfucker had her son a NDA that's a non-disclosure act which a lot of big individuals do to you know, to tell y'all to shut the fuck up.

Speaker 1:

But I'm just, I'm just looking at it from the outside in because, hey, she got paid off of her misery. I commend you, hey, but she did some fucked up shit too, as y'all know. Because I mean, who the fuck answers the phone while they fucking somebody else for their husband? Bro, that's no disrespectful shit. That's the only shit I see on the hub or the x video or some shit like that on twitter. But that's some. That's some old, disrespectful shit for you to got. No one sit up there and answer the phone while this motherfucker is deep penetrating you. Hey, no judgment to each his own, whatever, whatever.

Speaker 1:

But I'm just saying from the outside, looking in, it's just a fucked up situation for everybody to be exposed to. Because how long was she with this motherfucker? And I feel, I feel like this, this, this just me from my personal experiences motherfuckers, don't, don't just start asking for money or started trying to blackmail you with text messages, videos and shit like that until some shit goes left and I feel like she got what she deserved which 30? I don't know if it was 30 million or 20 million, but she got what she deserved. But then to just expose and expose and expose every little detail, that's a bit much to me, because I'm just, I'm just from the outside looking in Because I understand, even when some shit goes left between me and somebody, I'm just, I'm just from the outside looking in because I understand, even when some shit goes left between me and somebody I'm fooling around with bro, I take shit to the grave, bro, shit, it ain't nobody else's business, it ain't nobody else's concern. What's happening between us is happening between us, but everybody don't believe that way and I'm sorry to say this. That's what fucked up. What social media has come into the play? Because so many people get the, get the notion or the aggression in themselves to run straight to social media and expose every little detail about this individual to make them still look bad, or to blaspheme or to belittle them, or let them tell it, to expose anything about them and expose. Expose, goddamn, boss, man D-Lo, goddamn, goddamn, but I don't know what it is About motherfuckers when they get a little money, they get, they slip up, get caught in some bullshit. Bro you jagged. And I can understand certain shit, but I can't. I would never put myself in this situation, but I'm I'm just gonna speak on it. Shit. Today, boss man D'Lo got exposed by a transgender man. It's been plenty of motherfuckers out there that have gotten exposed about messing with trannies.

Speaker 1:

Let me not say this too close to my phone. And next thing I know I go on twitter and I'm scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. Oh shit, because I ain't gonna hold y'all one time. Shit, my twitter, kind of crazy. So. So the other day I was just, you know, chilling checking out my twitter late night type shit, because I got, you know, got the black mode, the dark node mode, on, so I'm just scrolling. I'm like, oh shawty, getting to it. God damn, teddy's looking pretty. Whoa, wait a minute, she got a dick. So I try to hurry up and scroll off that shit. Right there, done, fucked up my whole algorithm and all that other bullshit. Now I'm seeing shit more and more and more and more and I'm just like man. You know what? I'm just going to try to delete the app. Maybe they had to reset the algorithm.

Speaker 1:

I'm a little bit older so I don't know how this shit work, but I'm just like, oh my god, shit, I'm I done fucked up, and that's why I'm at. But this is, this is my thing. This is what me and my partner were talking about earlier. So what, when, when do when do y'all when? When they put this, this, this is what we get. So it's been exposed. Where some of these men get a little bit of money and they start doing some weird shit, they start getting exposed to the wild side of shit. Um, and they get exposed to these certain things, these certain ordeals, because a lot of these artists get exposed to these situations, a lot of these actors get to these situations.

Speaker 1:

Hey, if you do this for me, you will get this, if you do this, you will get this. And that's man and woman and a lot of y'all out there saying in the world well, shit, that'll never be me in that situation. I wouldn't do that, and you're a motherfucking lie. Because the way that shit works and the way that shit works in your mindset and in your head is you start thinking about all the bullshit you going on? Is you start thinking about all the bullshit you going on, all the shit you want to accomplish, and it's just a small rope Shit.

Speaker 1:

I'm not going to say small, we're going to say some treacherous territory that you buy the crossover into that you wouldn't, you normally wouldn't do, because somebody has placed something on a silver platter that you wouldn't regularly have access to. Place something on a silver platter that you wouldn't regularly have access to. What do you do? That's like they were talking about something. Man. I would never do it. You got to put a hundred million dollars in front of me. Man. Half y'all niggas will do that shit for a happy meal. We're gonna go ahead and keep that shit. 100.

Speaker 1:

But when, if your back's against the wall and you know the only way to climb this mountain or to get to the stature where you want to get is to do this bullshit that you would never in your a million years think of, or even whatever, whatever, whatever. It's crazy because you got to think about it, because everybody ask them crazy questions. Bro, shit, how much money would you suck a dick? For how much money would you do this? For how much money would you eat shit? For? I mean shit you. They had a tv show about this shit not too long ago. Because I mean fear factor, fear factor got on, touched on this shit a lot of times. Like bro, who in the fucking, who in the fucking right mind would lay down in a bed of fucking spiders or eat some bull testicles? Or you driving down the road, you going to flip your shit on purpose, bro, well, you could die. I mean that's fear. But who thinks that?

Speaker 1:

They going to be sitting down in a room where ain't nobody there, ain't nobody else there. They got you your paperwork and money or cash or whatever is placed in front of you, more cash than you have ever had at your fingertips before and they saying like shit, here go the NDA, here goes your, here's your water cash. We'll just say some bullshit, a bullshit number. So you think about it. We'll say ten thousand, man, shit, ten thousand, come and go. Shit, that's that, that's that's piss money, that's that's, that's hard working money. But we're gonna say some unreasonable amounts. We're gonna say they said two hundred thousand dollars. We'll shit, we'll up it up. We'll say a half a million, five hundred thousand. They said five hundred thousand dollars in cash in front of you. You ain't never seen this much money in front of you before in your life.

Speaker 1:

So they put five hundred thousand dollars in front of you and this is the decision that you have to make, sitting here what? What do you choose? You thinking about all the things that you can do and all the reach that you can do how you can grow your business, how you can take care of your kids, how you can take care of your family, how to, how you, how somebody can get this surgery, how your mama ain't got a struggle no more. How your sister ain't got a struggle no more. You can go buy a house, all this shit that you've never had access to before, just walking and working a nine to five, right there on the spot. How much?

Speaker 1:

How many people do you think got exposed to that shit, type shit? How many times you think they get pulled in them back rooms, at them freak offs and they get proposition with this shit? Y'all can't, y'all can't say that y'all wouldn't do this shit until you get placed on that five, because I mean I know I got morals, I got subjects and shit like that shit. I mean I'm gonna go ahead and be real with you. I, I ain't, I ain't, I ain't doing no shit just because you put that money in front of me. That's like you're selling your soul to the devil, but you can't say what you willing you won't do.

Speaker 1:

When your back against again the wall, when you got your dreams and your goals in front of you and somebody got down, put the proposition, this bullshit, in front of you, what do you do? What choice do you make? What trigger do you pull? Because you got to think about it. That's how. That's how mercenaries get started. That's how drug runners get started. That's how drug runners get started. That's how trappers get started. Because it's the fast cash now I'm getting. Now I'm getting access to shit that I have never seen before. What do we do? What do we do?

Speaker 1:

I'm gonna go ahead and tell you right here from my own personal experience, bro, I ain't doing that shit. I ain't gonna do. Miss me with that bullshit. Hell, nah, I only like the toilet, the toilet water splashing back up and hitting me in my asshole. I'm sorry. That shit scares me. Every time, that shit, like a goddamn gun going off, I'm jumping out my skin, I'm turning pale. I'm damn near about to run off the toilet, my drawers around my ankles. I know that ain't happening. Then the shit when you go to the doctor and you get they stick that goddamn shward on your throat. Shit, hell, nah, shit, damn. I damn near died. I saw my life vanish before my eyes. I can't do that shit. I would never even imagine doing that shit.

Speaker 1:

But we all have a price to do certain shit and to commit certain things. Like I say it's, it's like selling your soul to the devil because I can't say what I've done in my past like okay. I'll give you a perfect example. When I first signed up for the military, they put 20 grand. They said, hey, you come work for us, you go get this training, blah, blah. You go to the military, you give away 8 years of your fucking life. You get paid yes, you get paid For, you know, like a regular job, but you also get this $20,000 incentive and $20,000. And you're like shit. I was. I was.

Speaker 1:

I think I was 19 at the time, 19, about to turn 20. My first son was on the way. All I could think about is the future I could provide for him in that situation and how he could be proud that his dad was in the military, that I'm doing something productive in my life. I could go to school and all these things. I'm thinking of all the advantages. I'm never thinking about the disadvantages. I'm never thinking about what I'm going to be exposed to. I'm not thinking about all the bullshit that I'm going to go through Fast forward.

Speaker 1:

I signed the paper blah, blah blah. They didn't give me 20 grand. They didn't. The government taxed the fuck. Blah blah. They didn't give me 20 grand, they didn't. The government taxed the fuck out of it. They taxed it at 33.3%. I got back 15.6. After being away from my son in his first couple of months being here. And I got back 15.6. Yeah, I got something back on taxes. I got back 15, six. Yeah, I got some back on taxes, but the time that I lost with him did not equal the time that I gave away. But I didn't realize this until I got older and I started realizing what, what, what, what things they put him through also and that's also with my other kids, the other ones that I had while I was in the service deal. When I was, I'd come home for 30 days. Come home for, and leave back out. For what nine months, leave back out for six months, leave back out for another 30 days. I was doing that constantly, but that's what I had to sign up for for that piece of that cash.

Speaker 1:

But how do you know what these people signed up for when they went and got these deals? When they went and went these places or they got pulled in them dark rooms. You don't know what the fuck they got questioned about. You don't know what the fuck they got offered. Shit, man, man, I see your. Hey. You want to feature with xyz? Well, you're gonna have to do this. You want to get on this label? Shit, I gotta. You got a 150 million dollar budget. I'm sorry, we ain't gonna go that high. You got a two million dollar budget to put out an album. To do this. Do that. Do pay for the beats, do your and's how many. This is your recuperation. You got to give us back this. Your rights and your royalty stay with us.

Speaker 1:

A lot of them don't think about the repercussions. They just hear the dollar amount. That's why a lot of times they get folks trapped in these damn 360 deals and you don't ever know what the fuck you got exposed to. That means they got your ass sold the fuck all the way around. And what do you do?

Speaker 1:

But this is my question for y'all what do you gain out of destroying an individual by exposing them? What do you, what do you gain? You gain attention. Do you gain some self-relief? Because I mean, for my moral compass is I ain't gaining shit from it.

Speaker 1:

Why To see somebody's life get destroyed, for somebody to lose their life, go in a state of depression Because shit, I done been threatened? Oh shit, I found you, shit, shit. I'm gonna put this out on the internet. Oh shit, I got these screenshots. I'm gonna put this out. What the fuck man anyone know such shit? It was just me back in my 20s, me cheating, so shit. What do I do, motherfucker? What do you? What do you gain from? Because I mean, like I'm, I'm bad about this. Once you piss me off, I cut you the fuck off. I disassociate myself. Hey, you cool from over there, I don't fuck with you, whatever, hey, but you can breathe over there, I don't. I don't fuck with you, I don't want no bitch, no bad horn to you. I just don't fuck with you, no more.

Speaker 1:

But some people aim to destroy individuals and that's and that's disheartening. Because what? What are you going to do? Because we're going to take it to the extreme. You destroy individuals, character, you end up and destroy a person's mind and you expose all this negative shit about them, all this negative shit about them. Where's your moral compass gonna sit? Is your moral compass gonna be like shit? You did a good job, whatever. What about when? If they go and commit suicide, where's your moral compass at then? You're gonna get, you're gonna kill, you're not gonna give a fuck. Because if you don't give a fuck, shit, you never cared about them in the first place.

Speaker 1:

Because most people are out here they don't want to build with you, they want to destroy you. They want to cause you misery, they want to cause you hurt, they want to cause you pain. So why, why are you here? Why are you breathing? If you want to cause another individual pain? Because I mean you wouldn't want that done to you, why would you want that done to somebody else? Because to me that doesn't make any sense. Because a lot of people just want to destroy, destroy, destroy, destroy individuals. They never want to say hey, man, it's gonna be okay, okay, shit. Everybody go through some bullshit, everybody get exposed from some shit. Shit happens, shit gets said about people. Man, they talked about jesus, bro, don't worry about that shit. Where do you go?

Speaker 1:

How, how can you sit there and be okay with what you did to somebody and as much as slick shit as you say to somebody, or tell the next butterfly, or just tell the next person or the individual they just want to have an open ear. That's messy as fuck with you, because a lot of times, what I say is shit, bro, this is what it is. I just don't fuck with that person, no more. Oh, I don't fuck with them no more. Man, that's between me and them. Shit, because I don't. Just because I don't fuck with them, I don't fuck with them, and people constantly't fuck with them, and people constantly challenge your character, and that's why, like to this day, I don't fuck with a lot of people.

Speaker 1:

Because, bro, how can I trust you? How can I trust you? Because if you come to me and you talk to me about somebody, how do I know you don't do the same thing with me To others? Because, shit, it ain't that easy to cut on and cut off. Because what are you doing? How do you move?

Speaker 1:

Because if this is what you're showing me, that your character is, I'm cool with that. I'm cool on that, bro, you stay over there. Shit, you can keep that drama shit. You can keep that bullshit. You can keep all that negative energy shit over there. Because that, keep that drama shit. You can keep that bullshit. You can keep all that negative energy shit over there. Because that negative energy can be transferable to people. Because I mean, what are you looking to do when you expose them, people? What are you looking to do? Because karma is a motherfucker. Karma is a motherfucker because, like they say, like shit, like they say in certain movies and in witchcraft and this, that.

Speaker 1:

And the third, be careful what you do to people, because that shit might come back tenfold to you, because you don't, you don't know what you're putting out there in the energy, that all that negativity that's festering can be, can be put out in the atmosphere to where it now it affects you on the back end. So where do we go from there? Where do we go? Because it's like I'm sorry to say this, it's a lot of such shit happening, but whatever, hey, whatever makes them happy, let it make them happy. It might not be for me, it might not be for you, but if it makes them happy, hey, let them be down.

Speaker 1:

You ain't gotta fuck with it, you ain't gotta get your your two cents on it, none of that. Let them be happy. And you ain't gotta involve yourself in it. You ain't gotta got. Don't put your energy into it.

Speaker 1:

So why contribute to the fuckery? Why contribute to the bullshit? Why contribute? Contribute to the chaos? Because, I mean, that is the most diabolical shit that an individual can do cause another individual misery because, as we've seen, screenshots, text messages, videos all this shit can destroy a person's psyche. Some people ain't recover from it. Some people lose their jobs over it. Shit, are you gonna be okay with that? Let's put the shoe on the other foot. Would you be okay if somebody did that to you? Damn them. Would you be okay if it didn't happen to you? Not them, but you, a lot of y'all be like shit, hell, nah. And a lot of y'all that listen to me probably had some shit said about y'all that wasn't true. Because I, I'm, I'm the most person that can say on this, speak on this right here.

Speaker 1:

I hate lies on me. I hate a motherfucker to tell lies on me. Hey, tell the truth about me. See, if you want some truth about me, shit. I'll tell you the truth about me. I'll tell you all the bullshit I've done, but don't lie on me.

Speaker 1:

What do you get out of lying on somebody, man? Shit. If you want to lie on me, you can go write a book on doing that shit on somebody. You ain't got to lie on me, but that is what it is. I mean shit, but I mean if that's your privy, that's your privy. If that's what makes you happy at the end of the night about you lying on somebody and all that kind of other bullshit, man, go ahead, do you.

Speaker 1:

But that shit ain't for me, man, because I mean that shit fraudulent. That shit is fraudulent as fuck. Don't lie on me. Don't lie on somebody. Let them dig their own grave, because if somebody's fucked up, they'll dig their own stuff and their own situations and their own bullshit. You ain't gotta dig no hole for them. They'll fuck up themselves. But they can stand up on their own too, because, like I said before, would you be okay? Would you be a-okay if you're like he fucked up? What happened to do?

Speaker 1:

Buddy Roger got them off himself just for the hell of it. I don't know what the fuck he was going through, but he did, because you don't want something like that to happen to your family member, you don't want something like that to happen to your cousin. So why would you want it to happen to somebody that you used to care about, you used to fuck with, you used to care about, you used to fuck with, used to be on that, that type of time with? Because to me that shit ain't right, that shit ain't cultural, that shit, like y'all motherfuckers say that ain't the mirror. You know what I'm saying. But but shit, hey, just just think of people like people and don't try to goddamn, destroy people, no more, cause that shit ain't cool. And I just want to tell y'all thank y'all for listening to fold Steppers. Only I'm out, peace, we'll be right back. Outro Music.
