Send us a text

What happens when the world of entertainment collides with serious allegations? Join us as we unpack the shocking charges against Sean "Diddy" Combs, including racketeering and sex trafficking, and explore how unchecked power can manifest in the music industry. Featuring insights from civil rights attorney Lisa Bloom and the harrowing account of alleged victim Ashley, this episode challenges us to question the systems that allow such behavior to persist. In a twist, Kanye West's decision to avoid the U.S. amid these developments adds an unexpected layer to the unfolding drama.

But it’s not all heavy topics and serious discussions. We sprinkle in some humor with personal anecdotes, like the trials of being a responsible dog owner and a friend's amusing neighborhood escapade. As we shift between entertainment news and personal stories, we also dive into the emotional effects of a possible TikTok ban on content creators. The tension between political figures, Trump and Biden, over this issue sets the stage for a broader discussion on the impact of policy on digital communities.

As we wrap up, there's a heartfelt appreciation for our incredible community of subscribers. Their support fuels the show and enables us to keep creating content. With shout-outs to generous individuals like Brittany Alvarado, Ariel Fern, and Lee Carey, we emphasize the importance of community and connection.

We'll get it down dialed in exactly what we want to call it and how we want to do it. But I'm excited to kick it with y'all and talk about this diddy news and y'all can ask me anything. Cover my. I got some large creators who have big followers that I'm invite on. Call them friends of flow. But uh, y'all know how I always say I'm about to get into this, I'm feeling good, it's Thursday.

Speaker 1:

You know, I always say there's a few things I always say. I always say because I know a lot of people listening, are riding, are driving and stuff. A lot of people are walking, either by themselves or walking their dogs. And one thing I always say is thank you for listening dogs. And one thing I always say is uh, thank you for listening, but if you're driving, make sure you buckle up and keep your eyes on the road in the ear and your ears on me. And another thing I always say is and if you walk in your dog, clean your poop.

Speaker 1:

We love dogs. My son has a dog that's our family dog, we've had it since. A puppy, a boston terrier, uh, we call him juice. And my son has a dog that's our family dog, we've had it since. A puppy, a Boston Terrier, we call him Juice and my son loves that dog. We all do so. Don't get me wrong. I'm not bashing dogs. I'm just saying clean up the poop.

Speaker 1:

My friend, something kind of funny happened to my friend. You know how you got those friends who don't like anything out of order. They like their shit perfect, they take good care of everything, they treat everything like it's gold. You know, I love them type of. You know those type of friends, they, they, they don't want anything out of place and it drives them crazy. So I got a friend like that and so he just got a new house and everything was great. He was so happy. He liked the house, he liked the neighborhood. It's a very nice house, very nice neighborhood.

Speaker 1:

So you know, y'all know, and everything going perfect, life always has to throw you a motherfucking curveball. So he was sitting in his car and you know the way he was sitting in his car. You couldn't tell he was in his car and he just moved there. So how about his neighbor? He's walking down and I'm sure my friend is, like you know, happy to see his neighbors. You know how it is when you get a new house You're just excited. And so he's excited and guess what happens? So his neighbor gets directly squared in the middle of his sidewalk you know his sidewalk, my friend's sidewalk and proceeds to let his dog take a huge, massive dump square in the middle of his sidewalk and he didn't pick it up at all.

Speaker 1:

So my friend, who loves, who can't stand for shit to be out of place, it's had to sit here and watch this guy, uh, this neighbor, uh, promptly let his dog take a big taco bell shit in the middle of his sidewalk. And that's just me, just me being a friend. You know, we like to see our friends for a little fluster. I just got a kick out of that because my friend was going off and he said, after he took the shit and he didn't wipe it, he started walking. He said, he said he had to say something but he didn't want to be too mean. So he just said, hey, what's up? You good bruh. And then he said the dude was so shook, the neighbor was so scared, he asked him the stupidest question he ever heard of in his life, although he couldn't remember the question. But it was funny.

Speaker 1:

And, like I said, I say all that and I told him. I said, see, that's why I say that on my show every day, or most of the time. I try to say it a lot Clean the poop up. Y'all Don't just have your dog, your dog, even your dog don't want everybody looking at his shit. We just had your dog, your dog, even your dog don't want everybody looking at his shit. We love dogs, so I don't want to hear it. I love juice. That's our dog, so I ain't bashing dogs, I'm just bashing boo-boo. Pick that shit up and I'm gonna get into this. Let's get started.

Speaker 1:

Diddy, diddy, diddy. What the hell you done, diddy? Now, folks, we have another, uh, some crazy diddy stories coming out. That documentary, um, I am thinking about us meeting together and uh going doing the first video, official video podcast episode where we all talk about this case and, um, all y'all free to come to subscribers. Y'all gonna love it. Um, so we're gonna go over this. Some more of the documentary today where we be real nauseous.

Speaker 1:

I feel like this is like school, when, like the test or the project or the test or whatever is actually going to be like Saturday or Sunday or even Monday, I'm not. I'm trying to figure out what's the best day for everybody's schedule, y'all. So bear with me, but it feel like this is like this whole week has been, like we've been studying for the test, because the test is the diddy documentary. That's the information. So today we're gonna go over some more stuff and then this weekend we're gonna talk about it.

Speaker 1:

But, uh, what the hell diddy done did now? Well, as soon as I get it pulled up, I'm gonna tell you what. Because this, I told you, iphone is acting like they ready for me to get a new iphone. I said no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. New iphone for me. I like old iphone, old iphone paid for, and I don't want to. I don't want, no, I don't want to pay four thousand dollars and pay fifty dollars a month for the next five years for another phone. I don't do that, no more. Anyway, let's get into this shit. I know y'all like come on, man, get to the good stuff.

Speaker 1:

Here we go, oh, welcome back to another episode of the Flow Show, no Filter, where we dive deep, deep into today's most shocking stories and scandals. I'm your host, flow, and today we'll be tackling one of the most explosive allegations to come out of that little Diddy documentary, a Diddy-mentary. We're going to explore that. Yes, we're talking about the man Bad Boy Records, the iconic, the music man, the guy who is in prison or jail right now the guy who is in prison or jail right now. As you know, it's a new Peacock documentary that we have been covering. It's called the Making of a Bad Boy and it premiered on Peacock January 14th, which is a couple of days ago, and it's shedding light on not just Diddy's rise to fame, but on the years of allegations of abuse, manipulation and violence that remain buried Until now.

Speaker 1:

Today we're breaking it all down. We'll unpack the documentary a little more today. We've been unpacking it little by little all week. Today gonna be no different. Let's dive into these allegations and hear from the alleged victims who have come forward with horrifying claims. Buckle up, because this one is about to get heavy.

Speaker 1:

Now. Who are we gonna start with? Of course, y'all know we starting with the diddy monster. Let's start with diddy to make another bad boy documentary. Now this 90 minute special doesn't hold back, premiering on pika. It takes us all the way from diddy's childhood to the music empire he built and ultimately to these trifling as federal charges of racketeering and sex trafficking that were filed in 2024. Now, according to the synopsis, this documentary challenges viewers to rethink everything they thought they knew About Mohawk Diddy, not just as a Mohawk mogul, but as a person, and it's not Just about his influence on music, but what the fuck Been going on behind the scenes? That's why we're here. We ain't here because of the songs and the hits. Like I said before, fuck those hits. At this point, we here to know what the hell was going on behind the curtain. And, damn it, we're gonna find out. Now.

Speaker 1:

Famed civil rights attorney lisa bloom actually makes an appearance on this documentary and, of course, she's representing one of combs's accusers. Now bloom says something very powerful in this documentary. I want you to key into this, and I quote unchecked wealth and power is very dangerous in our culture. It allows people to get away with horrific behavior. Now that sounds just like a simple sentiment, but it's more than that. What lisa bloom said actually sets the tone for the entire documentary. It features victims, testimonies, never before seen footage and insights into the alleged crimes committed by Diddy. Now, before I go any further, I forgot to tell y'all we got some kanye west news coming up later in the show. Um, he's apparently been out the country, but that's we're gonna get to that and why he's been out the country. But it got something to do with diddy. Let me continue. This thing that's going on with diddy is not just a career takedown. It's a cultural reckoning.

Speaker 1:

One of the most disturbing stories in this documentary comes from an alleged victim known only as ashley. Now ashley claims she was brutally game graped by combs and his associates in march 2018 at diddy's, california, which is still standing, by the way. No fires is what I'm hearing. But let's continue. According to Ashley, she met Combs through a friend of his. That friend is Shane Pierce, is Shane Pierce.

Speaker 1:

After being introduced via a video call and after hanging out a few times, ashley says she was drugged at Combs' residence. She describes feeling strange. She had a drink and after drinking a glass of water, her mind went blank or she was just out of sorts moments later. She alleges Combs Pierce and others entered the room and what followed was a violent hours long assault. Ashley says Combs even used a TV remote to assault her and film the incident. While masturbating, she was threatened. Masturbating she was threatened. She was threatened that if she never, she'd never, she'd never see her loved ones again. Thankfully, she managed to escape this wild ass shit that was going on and she ran to a neighbor's house and that neighbor called the police.

Speaker 1:

But here's where it gets even darker. Listen up. When law enforcement arrived, ashley says the responding officers showed zero compassion. Perhaps Diddy had the law enforcement in his pocket. We've heard stories no ambulance, no ride to the station, nothing. No ambulance, no ride to the station, nothing. And Contra Costa County later determined her accusations were unfounded.

Speaker 1:

This alleged lack of action by the authorities raises serious questions about how power and influence may have shielded Diddy for years, and we've been talking about that on this podcast. His power and money has got him off the hook so long. But all those stories and incidents, they just piled up. And I always go back to the example of the story I told y'all about me, uh, figuring out a way to clean up my room very fast by putting all all the trash and all the clothes and everything that was laying around in my room, just stuffing it under the bed. Eventually you fucking run out of room and you get busted and then you ground it for the summer. But that happened to me, diddy, instead of being grounded by his parents when he were a kid, he getting grounded by the system, because he didn't get grounded enough by his mama, in my opinion. So now we're gonna get to some of the good shit. Now let's talk about what has been going on behind the scenes At Bad Boy Records.

Speaker 1:

A former employee, who remains anonymous, claims Combs had a twisted way of testing loyalty. You know, diddy did weird shit, made people do weird shit to quote, unquote test their loyalty. This person shared exclusive footage of Diddy at his infamous parties and in this included one where he says the rooms were lit in red. Now, allegedly because Diddy believed red lights set the frequency for sex. Now that's interesting and it makes sense, and I'm going to tell you why. As soon as I drink a little water, my throat dry. No, diddy, yeah. So listen, y'all remember that song by Diddy. Now, y'all know I can't sing, but I'm always singing. Y'all remember that song. It go, she don't want my love. I guess I got to move on. I guess that Diddy song, the one where he finally had got a little tiny hit and Diddy was going crazy Y'all remember that song. Right, move on, I gotta move on.

Speaker 1:

Whatever that song was, it was diddy and bryson tiller, but if you remember, the video was 80 in red. I believe this video was like a vanilla version of the freak off parties. Like for this witness to say that. Did he believe red was the frequency to turn sex on or whatever? Go to that, gotta move on video. That did he video. You gonna see red lights parties. And, like I said, I believe that the the motivation for that was Diddy was like I want to make this look like some of my little sexy freaky ass parties, so go check that video out. But that when this witness said that, I said nah, look, I did. Did he use that red light a lot? He used it in the video, two videos, matter of fact, both videos were highlighted in red. But let's continue.

Speaker 1:

This employee that brought up the red freaky lights, this, some freaky shit was going on, wasn't it y'all? Anyway, the employee alleges that Diddy would send him on missions to bring women back to the house and even showed him disturbing videos that he didn't ask to see, including one of two men having sex, supposedly to explain what people in the industry do to get ahead. Wow, wow, like what? Like hey, look, whatever you do, you do. But what I'm tripping on is why is you? Why you gotta feel like you gotta show people people's intimate set? You just showing it to people to prove your little point. Like seriously now he also said working for bad boy records was seen as a badge of honor, but the reality was anything but glamorous.

Speaker 1:

Now, unfortunately, ashley's story isn't an isolated incident. You don't need me to tell y'all that Y'all been listening to the podcast, y'all been seeing the news. Diddy allegations come around more than the bus back in the day. You know how that bus would run, just you missed that bus. Another one coming. That's like diddy's uh, uh allegations and lawsuit. Once this one, you see one come, you damn sure know another one coming behind it. So unfortunately y'all, this ain't an isolated incident.

Speaker 1:

This is one of many civil attorney, ariel mitchell, who said diddy basically been trying to kill her. I'm just, you know this is no filter. I don't gotta say it the way cbs and them say it, or news nation, they had a better, they had a more uh, softer way to say it. I'm gonna give y'all the no filter. She has said she felt like Diddy had been trying to kill her. Because she has been. This attorney has been suing Diddy and representing victims before it was even popular, you know, back when Diddy was still the boogeyman that everybody feared. Well, ariel Mitchell, who actually represents Ashley, claims there have been dozens of lawsuits against combs, with houston attorney tony busby stating in october 2024 that over 120 accusers have come forward. One of those accusers I think we all know you should know Dawn Richards from the group Danity Kane. She claims she was deprived of food and sleep While working on making the band 2. Another woman, sarah Rivers, alleges Diddy sexually assaulted her in the 2000s. That's Mohawk diddy time.

Speaker 1:

The documentary also explores darker rumors around diddy's life allegations of his involvement in the unsolved murder of notorious big, and even questions about the 20 2018 death of ex-girlfriend Kim Porter, who we have went into in detail, and I'm going to definitely dive more into the Kim Al B Short and Diddy shit in the Surviving Clive and Diddy series, part two for part two for Part two. For Ali Carter the story of Ali Carter that is coming to you this week, this week as well, the next few days, but it's so much to unpack. We got to unpack it all. We got to unpack it right now. None of these allegations have been proven yet. It's a big ass yet, and so they still, though, paint a grim picture of a man once celebrated as a visionary, as an icon.

Speaker 1:

Um, it hurts my stomach to even to say black excellence. This is what he preached. I didn't know. I I never knew black excellence was beating a woman a woman beating her with your hands and feet, kicking her on videotape. I didn't know black excellence was forcing people to do freaky shit and slipping them drinks. Now, like I said, this isn't a court of law, yet to be proven.

Speaker 1:

I hope, for the sake of the many victims that are out there, I hope this shit, some of this shit, ain't true or not true, for the sake of the victims. I don't want to believe people have went through this shit because I feel bad, because I think I speak for a lot of y'all that say I would. I feel I would. Man, I feel bad for anybody try to come at me with some of that crazy shit, because I'm gonna go the fuck off. And I think the industry knew that about me when I was assigned artists and I would meet people because I know them all and I've been this same person cool. I've always been cool because I don't want to be I'm not a bully at all like. I'm a. I'm a like. Let's figure out a way to just be cool so I could do my thing, you do your thing, but I definitely know that the industry people when they met me they knew, like you know what this guy ain't gonna do? No weird shit, because I'm just my, it's not just me, my family, we not cut from that. Like I'm not, I don't give, I will.

Speaker 1:

Before I do some strange shit for some change, I will fucking sleep outside on a box, on a, on a, on a, on a 10 pounds of of open legos laying around. You know, I used to walk around the house back and this for my oldest dirt people. That's oldest dirt like me. You remember walking around did nothing hurt like a stepping on a fucking lego. I would lay on fucking 500 pieces of legos before I would let somebody do this diddy shit. I will eat. I will eat the mushy part of a peach and I can't stand that. When I get a soft spot in my fruit, I will eat all soft spots for the rest of my life before I will let somebody do some Diddy shit like to me. So I feel for these victims because I know it's bullshit that they had to even go through a lot of this shit.

Speaker 1:

But what does Diddy have to say about all this? His attorneys call the allegations fabricated, uh, and accuse the media and plaintiffs of spreading false narratives. Of course, like I always say, this is why they call them defense attorneys. They are here to defend. But again, even bigger than Diddy, we see the money and the power and the wealth that, if it goes unchecked, it can run amok. Lisa bloom hit it on and hit the nail on the head.

Speaker 1:

Victims in the entertainment industry often face retribution, especially when the accused is a high profile figure. Now, for the survivors coming forward, it isn't just about seeking justice, even though that's a big part of it but it's also about reclaiming their voices. And for us, the audience, it's about questioning the systems that allowed this alleged behavior to go on for decades. This is still. The Diddy story is still developing, but one thing is still abundantly clear the industry, mainly the entertainment industry, has some deep, dark corners that need exposing. Sean Diddy Combs, as of right now, he still remains in federal custody waiting for his May 5th trial date. That's single to mile y'all, and then we gonna keep a good. We gonna keep an eye on this situation and see this thing through. Now Keeping an eye on the situation. Speaking of that, kanye West Do not want to bring his ass back in the US Because of this Diddy shit, and we gotta talk about it. Kanye West he's a foreigner now. Do not want to bring his ass back in the US because of this Diddy shit, and we got to talk about it. Kanye West, he's a foreigner now, allegedly. This is what I'm hearing.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to break down that article in a second, but first, before we get to the Kanye West and the Justin Bieber and all of that, let me say thank you to everyone who has, who has subscribed to the podcast. I appreciate you. It keeps the lights on and, just being honest, it makes me feel good that people, uh, not only enjoy my content but want to support my content.

And then subscribers you don't have to worry because I have all of your emails, so you will be emailed directly. Uh, what's going on? But you could be proactive, not wait on no email, and y'all are always welcome to email me or dm me on my social media any questions you have. This is my life, so don't ever feel like, oh, I can't hit them up or I don't want to bother them. Hit me up. I like to know what the hell going on and what y'all need from me. So let's get it.

Speaker 1:

Kanye West, kanye done went more than West. He went far, far, far West. Kanye West, apparently, is like I'm goinga just say it here's the fucking deal. And Kanye, don't fucking get mad at me, this is a fucking article. Alright, kanye West is straight up dodging the United States like it's his high school reunion. He's been bouncing around from europe, asia and everywhere in between, and a question a lot of people are asking is why is it legal trouble? And oh yeah, his connection to diddy's jaw dropping legal drama isn't helping either. Now, I'm a Kanye West fan.

Speaker 1:

Y'all know I keep it real. I don't. I don't have any any. There's no speculation that I've heard, no strong speculation that he was a part of anything freaky with Diddy. So let me just put that out there now. I don't know y out there Now. I don't know. Y'all might know something I don't know. Other people might know, I don't know. So I'm just keeping it real.

Speaker 1:

But this the thing is you can get wrapped up in a case even if you ain't did nothing wrong and you don't want to be called. I remember in Cleveland I had somebody got murdered and I had nothing. I didn somebody got murdered and and I had nothing. I didn't know anything about anybody involved. I don't know why they wanted to ask me this was back in the day and they they tried to call me. They wanted to subpoena me to for a witness. I'm like I don't know nobody. I had to talk to the lawyer and and get a lawyer to to get me out of just testifying. I'm like why would y'all have me testify some shit? I don't know nobody. I didn't know anything about anybody involved in this shit. So I'm like I don't want to be testifying, not my life in danger and I don't even know shit.

Speaker 1:

So, anyway, I just say that to say, even when you ain't did nothing, I could see why Kanye, whether he guilty or not I'm not saying if he guilty or innocent in this shit, but what I am saying is I could see why he is staying out of the country. He might not even want to answer, no questions, who knows. But it's serious and this is a big money, got to hire a bunch of lawyers, type of thing going on. So apparently, kanye's only popped back into the US once, and that was during a family event in LA. He's only been here one time in a minute while all this shit been going on. And now word on the street is that he's pretty much settled in Tokyo. Yes, tokyo.

Speaker 1:

Diddy is avoiding being subena, being subpoena like the plague. So what exactly is Kanye running from, you might ask. Well, that's why I'm here. He's got a laundry list of lawsuits piling up. Some are overpaid debts classic kanye. Y'all know, kanye, I have a little clothing debt out there somewhere. We love him. But others are breach of contract disputes. You know, just your average billionaire level problems, problems. But here's where it gets wild. Kanye west isn't just avoiding the lawsuits, he's also distancing himself from any potential mess connected to sean diddy combs. Now, in case you missed it, diddy is currently in deep legal trouble. We all know that. We all know about the racketeering and all of that.

Speaker 1:

And this is where kanye west gets paranoid. See, an insider spilled a little bit of tea and I'm gonna clean it up. And they're saying Kanye is terrified that his past association with Diddy could come back to haunt him. Now let's be real, these two were tight back in the day, thick as thieves. It's not like Kanye can pretend he doesn't know Diddy, like Jay-Z is doing, but I guess he's hoping that he can put a little ocean in between him and Diddy, put a Walmart in between them, meaning, put plenty of space in between himself and the Diddy drama. But folks, I don't think that's possible. Diddy, diddy, his case and his charges are so fucking horrific. If you just took a picture with him, your ass getting looked at these days.

Speaker 1:

And let's not forget about kanye's kids and all of this north saint, chicago, and some are all still living in the us with their mom, kim kardashian, and, according to sources, kanye's absence has little to do with them. Now this insider basically said kanye is not avoiding america because of his kids, he's avoiding america because of his lawsuits and honestly, it makes sense. Kim, on the other hand, is out here doing the most to keep things stable for their children. Now, one thing I can say about kim we might have a lot of, you know, she might be caught up in a lot of bullshit, but she, from what I can see, she be taking care of those kids. I would just call it spade a spade. Now, if I'm wrong, if y'all know some shit I don't know, put it in the comments, send me the message. But from what I've seen, she does take care of the kids or make sure that they're good.

Speaker 1:

Now let's talk about bianca for a second now. She's been by kanye's side through all of this and I'm sitting here wondering is she just along for the ride or does she actually believe whatever the hell Kanye is doing? They've been seeing globe, trotting the world together, actively dodging legal consequences. To me, that's not a vacation, that's stress. But hey, I ain't Kanye West. He handled it how he want to handle it, and so does so will Bianca. Now, let's not forget the scandal in Venice. Remember, kanye and Bianca were caught up in some shit, let's call it. They were caught in a compromising position on a water taxi. I think y'all remember. If you don't remember, she was allegedly giving kanye head. Yeah, I know, tmi, but that's it was all over the internet. Just been a roller coaster now.

Speaker 1:

So where does Kanye go from here? I don't know. He's been quiet about his future plans, which is not surprising. Y'all know Kanye be quiet and then he'll pop up with a shoe that look like a space cadet could wear it on and walk the moon. Everything. All Kanye's clothes look like they made for you to walk on the moon, but that's a whole nother thing. Um, he's just gonna avoid things, I guess.

Speaker 1:

But here's my take kanye can't run forever. The lawsuits aren't going anywhere. The diddy drama ain't disappearing no time soon. Matter of fact, in march, next month. Well, in two months they're gonna be naming names and I think I think kanye gonna be in tokyo in march for sure. But at some point, if he is caught up in it, he will have to face the music. We will see. Until then, we're just gonna keep, keep watching Kanye play his international game of hide and seek.

Speaker 1:

Who knows, kanye might move from Tokyo to Antarctica or Alaska. We just never know. But one thing we do know is Justin Bieber about through with everybody. Oh yeah, the Bieber is through, and I was the first person in the media to break the news about Justin Bieber unfollowing Usher. And now that shit done, spun out of control and everybody's talking about it. But I gave it to y'all first and I'm sure if y'all listening you definitely know like, yeah, the first time I heard about Justin Bieber unfollowing Usher was from Flo. I appreciate y'all for acknowledging me, even if y'all didn't.

Speaker 1:

But here's the headline justin bieber has officially cut ties with usher after 17 years of friendship and mentorship, and one question that all of us are saying is what the fuck happened. 17 years, y'all, usher was like a big brother to justin. Usher was like the guy who supported him, who discovered him, who guided him. But now, in the midst of all this freaky baby oil drama with the baby oil bandits, he's unfollowing usher. Let's break this shit down a little bit before we get the fuck out of here. Like usher is the reason that justin bieber is even in our lives and he discovered him right. But Justin Bieber is even in our lives and he discovered him right. But Justin ain't feeling us, or not?

Speaker 1:

Like everybody's starting to talk about it now. I touched on it already, but it's got legs, and so what? What do you think? Do you do? What we're trying to figure out is did, did he do something to justin? Did usher do something to just to justin, or did both of them do something to justin? That's like what everybody's wondering right now.

Speaker 1:

So usher's name started to pop up, and uh, not too long ago and, if you know, he scrubbed his whole instagram. I mean his whole twitter. I think they said it was like almost 8 000 tweets that he scrubbed. And then he said he was hacked. And then everybody said, well, why would somebody hack you just to clean up your account and get rid of evidence? I don't know. I'm tired of them trying that hacking shit. Now, hey, again, I have nothing. Nothing's been proven against usher. So guilt I mean innocent until proven guilty. I was an usher fan, I'm an usher fan, but I don't give a fuck about your music. If you done did some bullshit, so we'll see.

Speaker 1:

So I'm not saying Usher's guilty or anything, but I know Justin clearly believed there's enough smoke to walk away from the situation and Justin know that if he unfollowed Usher, he know everybody going to talk about it and so, like I said before, it's the things, it's the non-verbals that Justin is coming with that got me thinking like it's something to this shit y'all, and to me I think Justin's trust has been shattered, to be honest, y'all think Justin's trust has been shattered, to be honest y'all. And it's been shattered by from an industry that takes advantage of kids, takes advantage of people who want to be stars and it's sad to see. And for Justin, who's just trying to live a quieter life with his wife Haley and leave the drama behind, it probably feels like the only way to move forward is to cut ties, clean the slate, press the reset button. Now Usher hasn't said much about these accusations against diddy, and while silence doesn't automatically mean guilt, it do to me. In this situation, when people are saying that you sexually assaulted them as a child and all of that, and you wrapped up in it and you just running around acting like ain't nothing going on, I don't like it. But one thing we can say Justin ain't waiting around For people to talk. If you watch what he's doing and watch his moves, he letting you know Some bullshit been going on and we gonna keep an eye on that. Now I don't know if there's anything To that. I can't confirm it, but it's anything to that. I can't confirm it, but it's definitely something, a story, this Justin unfollowing Usher, justin, usher and Diddy thing. I think it's about to get the lid blown off of that. So stay tuned.

Speaker 1:

And speaking of getting the lid blown off, tiktok thing is just blown out of control and it's like been an emotional roller coaster and it just highlights how this country and the powers that be and elites don't give a fuck. And not only do they not give a fuck, they are really dumb. Like my grandma always said, you could be dumb, cause they are dumb, and I'm gonna explain why I say they're dumb a lot of those congressmen and house and senators and all that crap. You can be dumb, but my grandma always said don't be stupid. And these senators and shit sounds so stupid. But let me tell you how, why I hate this country.

Speaker 1:

Now y'all know they trying to take the income away from seven million businesses, millions of creators get paid off tiktok pay their bills, their house, their, their car, and not if they, even if it's not their, their, their soul income, uh, they, it's their side income. That help ends me. Now, all of this time they've been, you know, while we over here, nervous, panicking I mean people on it remember y'all heard the, the episode, people crying it just sagged because it felt like, why does this country always want to fuck us over? Now, after trump said he gonna say he was gonna save tiktok. Now, in the 25th hour, here come joe biden in his camp nowadays saying they gonna save tiktok. So now, after we've been sitting here with this whole band shit and our blood pressure through the roof, we don't know if we're going to be able to fucking eat as far as TikTok goes. Now Joe Biden want to say he's saving TikTok.

Speaker 1:

And that's why I told y'all nobody can ever get mad at me on one side or the other, because I'm independent and I love being independent, because I get to call it for what it is on Trump ass and what it is on Biden ass, and I critique them both evenly, because, at the end of the day, I represent the people, so it don't matter which president is in the seat. I'm going to have to call their ass out when it, when they need, when need be. So I don't get close to any of them, to be honest, which? Because my role is to make sure we are all straight. So, whether it's Joe Biden or Donald Trump, my cuss out is the same, or my praise is the same. So anyway it just so. I'm not, I'm not. I'm not excited about neither one of them.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to tell you why. First of all, trump was the one who got this ban even started. So he's saving it. Cool, I'm glad. Anybody can have one decision one day and then realize they were wrong, but I'm not giving you no fucking cookie for it, though. And then, biden, you signed this shit. This shit been going on for months and months and months and months, and you're gonna wait to. We we wondering is it gonna be banned on sunday, this sunday, y'all? And now, now you want to save it because trump was getting the credit. Fuck everybody in this in that sin in the house, except for the few who are trying to be right.

Speaker 1:

But let me go back to this. What I'm saying, dumb, these senators are really still saying, after it's been debunked, it's been proven, it's well known that there's no security threat. Nothing's been proven. And what they're saying? That TikTok by ByteDance owning TikTok and ByteDance being partially owned by the Chinese. What they are saying is that it's a security threat because of the Chinese right, but that's already been proven and debunked. That y'all don't give a fuck because we got Teemu, we got Sheen, we got all kind of Chinese apps that owned by Chinese, that we have access to Shit. We got people saying I don't give a fuck, I will mail, I will air mail my DNA directly to Chinese, to the Chinese president or whatever, before I trust this fucking government. And so let me get back to the dump.

Speaker 1:

So these, so these senators are still repeating this as if they've been living under a rock. Like, uh yeah, the, the TikTok poses a national security. I'm like, and you know what, man, I'm being honest, y'all. It really saddens me that, like, no wonder this country has turned into a dumpster fire. We really do have idiots running it, and they're not all idiots, it's just 90% idiots.

Speaker 1:

Like, okay, I'm the type of person if you want to argue and you have your side and your point, I'm willing to listen to it. Like I'm very open-minded. I do understand that there are two sides and three sides to everything, so I'm always willing to listen. But when you're just repeating stupid rhetoric, propaganda, bullshit, I don't respect it and you look stupid. If you want to petition for the band, give me some real fucking reasons. But they can't give us no real reason, because it ain't no real reason. The only reason is because they want to control our voice and control the narrative. And they can't and they're mad.

Speaker 1:

And let me tell you something I just got word that I have become top 15 of all media personalities. When you, um measure influence, when you, when you met, when you measure the amount of views I get daily, when you measure that I have 600 000 followers on all, across all major platforms and I have a podcast that is downloaded in the top seven percent um, amassing 60 000 downloads in a little over 60 days. I don't say that to brag, because that's not. That was never my intent. My intent was to give my truth and see how far and see if people you know rock with me because I didn't see all of this. So I'm just giving you this to say they don't want a quote-unquote average. Joe, I ain't elite, I ain't um, a broadcaster for nbc or none of that shit, but statistics, I'm top 15%. And then they said, if you count, if you're talking about independent journalists, independent social media personality, I'm top 10% of everybody in the US that's doing media. They don't like that because I don't have to. Of everybody in the US that's doing media, they don't like that because I don't have to run narratives and this and that All I do is see the facts and give them to y'all.

Speaker 1:

I, of course, tell you what I think, but I give you the facts on both sides so you could decide and they don't like that. But you know what I say fuck them. But at least it looks like now that they fighting to keep tiktok because trump won't, wants uh, trump wants credit for saving tiktok, which is going to shoot his name into the atmosphere. This would be done by the Democrats to let Trump do this on his own. So of course Biden wants to come in and say he's saving TikTok, but it's just like it still pisses me off, because you got these men and women crying and going through all this, not knowing how they're going to pay their bills, when, in the back of my mind, y'all going to save it for your own ego While we, while we sitting around, I got people crying where they don't even have to be going through this.

Speaker 1:

It shouldn't even be no fucking band, and so have at it, shit. At this point, I don't even have to be going through this. It shouldn't even be no fucking ban, and so have at it, shit. At this point I don't give a fuck. But I hope tiktok stays, for it'll make things easier for me and it'll make things easier for everybody involved and it's a special place. So I hope it does stay. But but they done, they done, turned me the fuck off, y'all.
