A Miami Influencer’s Death In Zanzibar And The Questions That Follow

Something feels off when the headlines line up too neatly: a birthday trip to Zanzibar, a surprise proposal on safari, and then a Miami influencer is found dead at a luxury resort with early talk of “suicide.” We slow the story down and talk through what’s been reported about Ashley Robinson (Ashley Janae), why her family is demanding answers, and why distance from home makes accountability harder when a death happens overseas.

Then we jump into hip hop news where real life consequences don’t wait for think pieces. The shooting involving NBA Ben 10 and the rumors tied to All-Star JR raise a bigger question about the social media era: when captions start sounding like confessions, is it clout, crashing out, or a strategy that backfires? We also talk self-defense, aggression, and why public taunting can pour gas on a situation that’s already dangerous.

From there, the conversation opens up into the mindset behind it all: free will, control, and why “people are not possessions.” We get into the Gucci-related debate about being a civilian victim while still dropping diss records, then drift into the weird corner of the internet with dolphin laws, conspiracy talk, and the uneasy feeling that politics and media are turning everything into a spectacle, from Epstein file chatter to Trump posting an AI image as Jesus and renewed anxiety about a possible draft amid Iran tensions and BRICS geopolitics.

Influencer Death In Zanzibar

SPEAKER_00 4:28

that. One story I wanted to get into that crossed my table yesterday that was kind of odd. It was very, very much weird. About the uh the the one uh her name is uh it's a girl named Ashley Robinson. Her her name on Instagram was Ashley Janae. Now I seen a lot of people like commenting and everybody, oh yeah, you you yeah, she she was this, that, the third, blah, blah, blah. And there was a lot of people that I was seeing from here, from I mean from Cleveland that was talking about that. And she from I'm reading this, she's from damn Miami. I'm like, how the fuck y'all even know? But that's that's neither here nor there. You know, some sometimes stuff be happening. You would swear the way people talk about people, they they was they were their closest friends, is it uh veil crowd to the hip. But anyway, it is damn so disturbed. This story is disturbing. So it says a 31-year-old Miami influencer was found dead in a luxurious Tanzania resort in Mr. and mysterious circumstances, and her family is seeking answers. They said Ashley Robinson, better known online as Ashley Janae, was discovered unconscious in a room at the Zuri Zanzibar Hotel. So she all the way in fucking Africa with this. It was a it was an older her her better half or her boyfriend at the time or whatever. He she was out there with him, he was an older, uh older gentleman, uh like caucus or whatever. So that's where they kind of draw. I'm gonna let you know how they tying that in. But he proposed to her, it was on her birthday and everything like that. They really they're gonna get into that. But right after that, she just pops up dead. And they talking trying to rule it as a suicide. How it's not making, I'm gonna let I'm gonna get into it a little bit further. It's a she was found at the Zurich Zanzibar Hotel. She was taken to the nearest medical facility where she was declared deceased after hours of after several hours after admission. An active investigation into Robinson's mysterious passing away is already in progress, according to her relative. Ashley Robinson traveled to Zanzibar to celebrate her birthday on April 5th. During her trip, her fiance, Joe McCann, surprised her with a marriage proposal during a safari. The event was described by Robinson's family as memorable. The couple stayed at the Zuri Zanzibar, a luxurious resort when Ashley fell ill. Now all of a sudden she got sick. One moment she was celebrating love and life in truly Ashley fashion, and the next she was gone. The Robinson and Andrews families noted in their joint statement. The suddenness, the unanswered questions, and the distance from home has made this have made this tragedy even more overwhelming for our family. This statement was posted by Savannah Britt, a friend of Ashley Robinson, urging attention to the case. She wrote.

Condolences And Community Support

SPEAKER_00 9:23

She just lost. Let me see. She said she had death in the family. Her husband grandma had passed away at night, 96 years young. So my deep, deepest condolences to you and your family, Renee. Try to keep your heads up and stay stay in the realm of positivity as best as y'all can. Please, please. Everybody, please send y'all condolences to Renee. You know, the flow community, we definitely praying for you. Let me see. Yeah, so what y'all, what that exactly, exactly, Jarrell. I was just about to say that. So one thing that I did see, I seen something indicating that she had they found her in the room, but they found her with a rope around her neck. And they talking about suicide. So I how are they saying suicide when like granted, like people can miss the signs of certain stuff. I I definitely get that. I I I'm not negating that. You just got proposed to and everything like that. That's why, like, I see where all of the indications is going towards the fiance, because it's like, no, what's going on? What what's really going on? And then they saying there's like a back a backstory behind him and what he got going on. And like his ex-wife then came out and spoke out about different stuff that transpired between those two in a relationship. So it's definitely becoming like a hairy sick situation. But like they said in the article, out of respect for the family, you know, we we just we just we just considering all of the all of the information before you consider all of the information before you pass any type of judgment. So that's definitely what we're gonna go along the lines with that. What y'all what y'all think?

SPEAKER_01 11:33

Let me know in the comments.

SPEAKER_00 12:32

Okay, Edenlock says she haven't had her. It just like it just recently happened. Like her birthday was last week, and this the whole thing just just recently happened. So that it's like fresh, fresh. Uh it it been a lot of stuff like going on over the weekend, too. Not even just the weekend, just the like past coming days, like even like you got the offset stuff, and then it was this thing that went on with uh J. Prince Jr. This uh one uh one of NBA Young Boys homeboy, uh NBA 10, and this other rapper named All-Star Jr from Detroit. So this is wild. So it says, let me see this.

Rapper Shooting And Online Hints

SPEAKER_00 13:26

So this is an article from hot hot news. Let me see, hot new hip hop. So it says, All-star JR hints at his involvement in the shooting of NBA band 10. It said, with the police still investigating after the shooting of NBA Ben 10, they may have a lead to go off of thanks to another rapper's social media post caught by DJ Academics. Detroit MC All-Star JR uploaded a carousel of video. I'm sorry, carousel of photos of himself at a jewelry store back home. However, it's his caption that suggests he allegedly was he was allegedly involved with the situation. So this dude, so basically the backstory that I heard about it, he was in a restaurant or whatever, chilling, chilling with it with a little with a chick or whatever. They they chopping it. Uh NBA Ben 10 come up try to, you know, try to be, he came up confrontational and everything like that. And then next you know, they get into a scuffle. Then Jay Prince Jr. comes in, they basically jump the dude. And then they start like trying to snap, like snatch his chains off his neck and everything like that. So in the midst of them jumping them and everything like that, dude gets to his gun. He gets to his gun and just starts shooting, just like kind of airing the place out in his in his defense. So NBA Bent 10 and another dude got hit, and they would like suffer like critical injury, were they still in the hospital now? And based off of swirling rumors, that all of this stem from the all-star JR dude messing with J. Prince Jr., either one of his girlfriends, like a previous girlfriend of his or one of his baby mothers. One of that. So back to back to the story. So the guy they saying they they going based off his involvement because on his Instagram post, with it, like along with the photos, he said, had to shoot to the D to get to get to shoot to the D and get new ice because my man's bent 10 took some of my stuff to the hospital with him. And that so even even though, you know, that like this stuff it happened in Texas and everything like that, hopefully, if he, you know, he had his he had his paperwork together for the pistol that he had. But and it they would probably deem at a self-defense because they the group were were the aggressors. But it's just like the the public taunting stuff, like that's where stuff really gets out of hand and kind of escalate the situation. It says, It says, if you scroll through the photo, there's another message that's sure to spark curiosity and debate online. It says, thought he was mautized till I shot his ass a few times. Crazy. It said the reason he's speaking out is because rumors have rampant online. They allege that he was the one being robbed by NBA Ben 10 and others of his jewelry. So as a result of allegedly being a victim of what was described as a brutal attack, he allegedly started to randomly fire bullets to ward off his assailants. Of course, don't take his statements too literally just yet. But given how explicit he's coming across, All-Star JR has some serious potential to become a person of interest. As we said earlier, police are looking into the situation. The last update we have comes from Confessions, the restaurant where Ben 10's fight and eventual shooting took place. It says, we are actively reviewing the incident internally and with the Houston Police Department they had. We are also working to strengthen our safety protocols and operational procedures to help ensure the continued protection of everyone who walks through our doors. As for the status of NBA Benton and the other person who was shot, they were reported to be in very critical condition. We learned that from Lieutenant R. Wilkins a couple of days ago. In terms of the injuries, one of those suffered injuries to their torso while the other were hit in the arms and legs. Crazy.

Free Will And Control

SPEAKER_00 18:41

Honestly free to do whatever they choose anyway, because God bless us with free will. So if that's where she wanted to be at, let her go where she wants to go. People are not possessions. And I really don't understand a lot of people's thought process where they think that they can control what a person does or says or who they interact with or anything like that. All you can do is really give you give a mere suggestion and hope that they heed your warning. Or or whatever it is. Let me see.

Civilian Claims And Diss Songs

SPEAKER_00 19:28

Man, Lazy Baby, see, now you let me uh now I gotta now I gotta find find my tinfold hat. So yeah, like Lazy Baby said, with so with the Gucci and thing. So that ordeal kind of took a weird twist and turn to me. I told and I told y'all, I kind of forewarned y'all how everything was probably gonna transpire. And if it did, that would be the only reason and why a lot of other artists are coming with the type of comments that they're coming with. So with the Gucci thing, so all of a sudden this past weekend, why Ite want to take it upon himself to drop to drop a damn song called Crash Dummy, a diss song like directed at Pooh Shisey and Big 30 and all that. If you're gonna be that, and that's that's why we're like I I understand, like he you can't straddle the fence. If you're gonna be a civilian and you're gonna be a victim, you have to be a civilian, you have to be a victim. You gotta stand on that. Don't come around talking about oh yeah, you may you dropping this songs and everything like that, like you just more so condoning the street activity. And no, you you you wanna you a civilian, you made the report, you did it, and as you should, not negating all of I I'm not one of them people that's that's caught up in assimilation still. So I understand that he had every right to do do that, but don't come right back around trying to pop it on those street shit. That that's over with. You need you need to go ahead and just move maneuver accordingly. Get get your get your insurance reporting, police reporting, and everything like that, so you can get back at least the cash value of what you lost. And if you can't get the actual items back. So I think him even releasing that song was pretty much counterproductive in the whole type of in the whole entire case alone, and that may that may lead to some type of dismissal or anything like that. Let me see.

Dolphins Laws And Wild Theories

SPEAKER_00 21:41

And then also, Lazy Baby, uh, that Gerald the Dolphin shit. So now they got some, they I done heard different reports that it's been multiple bottlenose dolphins just popping up, just like beached, basically, like just all already, just out of here. And nobody can explain how they coming up. But I seen this video, it was in like the early 2000s or something like that. Or I want to say as late as 2008. They had the shit on the Simpsons. They had the shit on the Simpsons. So they had it was an episode, it was Mo from the, you know, from the diner and stuff. He was in the he was, it wasn't Mo, it was Mr. Burns, I think. He was in the middle of the ocean. And then he up there, he was drinking and everything like that. And then next you know, they uh they like these bottle, these bottlenose dolphins started surrounding them. Then he like, hey, what's going on? Then they hit him. Boom. He's like, hey, what you do that for? Then they just started just attacking them and everything like that. Then dude disappeared in the ocean. I'm like, what I'm like, what the fuck? And then they showed the one fisherman dude that's always at the dock explaining like the little marine shit. He was over there talking, like, ah yeah, they they did this. One of the dolphins hit him into the water. They took him. And then one of the dolphins put on his sail, his sailor head and took his pipe. And he was like talking in dolphin language, like, oh yeah, I'm the captain now. The only thing that they didn't show in that episode correlating to this root to the shit that happened out with Gerald, they did not show him underwater building it. That's the only thing that they didn't show. Other than that, they damn near did that, did everything. And not only that, they found the dude like in the same type of the same type of pose that they found the dude that they found in real life. And it wasn't like regular people that were just on the beach found them. It was the police, just like they found the dude that Gerald had. So like I said, literally the only thing that is not like completely lining up is they didn't show in the episode him underwater building. So that the Simpsons strike again. The writer for the Simpsons, like he tapped into some shit. I'm surprised he ain't even gone yet. They ain't even got to him. Well, they probably authorized him to do it just so he can put out the propaganda and everything like that. Yeah, he not. And then, like I was telling y'all when I had met the guy when I was out in Tennessee, when I met the guy from uh South Carolina, when we were talking, we were talking about the same stuff, like all of this stuff come that's that's going on and like coming to light. You just gotta think back. Like, I really wanna know what all of those people like that everybody talked about, like the Jesse Ventures and everybody like that. I want to know what I know they just sitting back laughing. I know they just sitting back laughing, just licking their chops, like, yeah, I told you so. I told you so. Because those people just got the worst of it, and they got the they got called all type of names, turned every which way but loose. And and look, look now, everything that they said that you you wouldn't even entertain it is is coming and is is very much visible. It is it's kind of like you you watching watching like a show play out. You just watching the whole plot just unfold and it's just unfolding in real time, and and you a character in the plot, you like a extra, like an extra in the movie, or like a like a what they call it, an NPC, a non-playable character in the game, or something like that. Speaking of that, I seen a video where this dude was talking where like he was saying the world is full of non-playable characters, like real-life humans, like it's people that are hired just to go walk around the mall all day, or people that's hired, like one he said he swear that people are hired to purposely cause rush hour traffic just from the way that they drive. And then, like, you don't want to entertain that shit, but then you start thinking, I'm like, damn. I be I just I remember like playing like GTA and shit, or like if I be playing GTA online, I just be driving the car, and all of a sudden you see a motherfucker in the whole far right lane just come clear across and make a left turn, and you crash and your car flip over, and so you like, damn, why did you do that? Then turn around being real life traffic, and you see somebody do the exact same shit. You like, who like you like, damn, like who taught you how to drive? Or like I done seen accidents where the fucking car went up the pole, not crashed into the pole. I'm talking about the car was up like this, up the pole, like it didn't just slid up there, like slid up that little thin ass power wire, that little brace wire for the power pole. How? Like it's not is it's not registering. Yeah, they got a law where there's a law where you are not the only way you are allowed to communicate, you're not allowed to communicate with dolphins, really. But the only way it's accepted is if you communicating with a dolphin that's in captivity. Other than that, it is against the law for you to communicate with a dolphin in its natural habitat. Why? Why like how you even know we know like like why is that a law, first of all, and how are you even able to determine whether we know I don't even know fucking dolphin language. So how you gonna tell me I can't communicate with some shit that I can't even communicate with? But it they say there's a lot of stuff going on with the dolphins for they say, like I seen in one video, it's a case where this lady did an underwater birth, and she did an underwater birth in a dolphin tank. Birthed the baby in 20 minutes. They they swirled, they kept swirling around her and using her using a sonar ability. Birth the baby in 20 minutes. The lady said it was painless, ain't Philathine, no epidural or nothing. And then they shut down the case after after that because a lot of people were seeking to get that. They like, no, how how is this possible? They wanted to know how were the dolphins making it. They were more concerned with how the dolphins were making that capable instead of just providing a painless birth for an actual human being, and seeing a way that that it could be like a coexisting measure. Let me see. Yeah, uh I seen that too, Lazy Baby, and then um it was another thing that I had seen too. Let me see. Yeah, the that's what

Melania And The Epstein Files Talk

SPEAKER_00 29:37

I was looking for. Enoch, the Melania speech. That's what, man. So my thing is, I don't know if y'all know or not. So like la over the weekend that when I got wind of it, Melania Trump just came out the blue and wanted to do a do like uh address the nation as a first lady or whatever, did this whole speech, but she coincidentally, coincidentally, the whole fucking speech was about the Epstein files and her involvement in it. First of all, and nobody knows nobody knew supposedly knew that she was doing that. First of all, before you even able to even come to have come about to have that speech, like you gotta run the past the different people like the different people to even correlate and organize that. So how did that even happen? How the fuck Donald Trump supposedly didn't even know about it? And like what even pri like this like every all of this stuff been the band-aid's been getting ripped up for the longest. Why is it now? Why is it that now you have the inclination to just come about? Oh yeah, I I want to say this blah blah. No, then why you ain't you ain't want to say nothing before? You weren't trying to say nothing when those victims were trying to organize some type of peaceful protest regarding the matter. So why you want to come out the blue knife? It's not it's not making sense. Oh, yeah, yeah. I did see that talking about her friend threatened her. Like I'm pretty sure your friend then threatened you before, and what did your friend threaten you with? Yeah, like Jarrell said, she never even you never even hear a peep out of her. She don't never want to talk about nothing. You could have done a damn press conference about the war, Melania. Why the fuck you ain't say nothing about the war and your opinion on that? Even if you were so showing support for your husband, why didn't why wouldn't you do nothing about the war? You go straight to the fucking Epstein files to try to clear your name as an individual. Not trying to get justice for nobody, just to clear your name. That that that's what will make everything everything damn sure suspicious. Let

Disclosure Culture And Information Control

SPEAKER_00 32:23

me see. When I know they was talking about uh this that shit called uh it was disclosure day where they supposed to be showing everything.

SPEAKER_01 32:33

Let me see where when okay, so they they keep just showing the movie.

SPEAKER_00 32:58

Okay, yeah, so they just keep they just keep showing the uh the movie or whatever, uh disclosure day when I looked it up. But I wanna see when I wanna I really wanna see that movie. I wanna see exactly I think I think that's gonna be a way for for like Hollywood and the entertainment world. I think that's gonna be a way for them to try to like ease more information in. Which at this point they don't need to ease shit, just let it all out. Whoever did whoever deal with it, whoever able to deal with it, will be able to deal with it. Whoever ain't, we get them the resources so they can stomach it or get pull out the motherfucking every if they you drop the information and they can't handle it, pull out the motherfucking man the black stick. You know, you know y'all got it. Go do do what you do what you gotta do. But Pete it's time it's time to stop hiding this information from people. It it really is. Let me see. Yeah, it yeah, I think yeah, Grandma Cathy, I think it is okay for you to do research on them. This this just c this just came to my phone and it this is ridiculous.

Trump Posts AI As Jesus

SPEAKER_00 34:50

I hope they show the picture. No, they don't. They said uh I gotta find that picture. They said Trump posted himself like an AI image of him like it as Jesus.

SPEAKER_01 35:05

Oh my god. Look this is ridiculous. Look at that shit. What in the fuck?

SPEAKER_00 35:25

Ain't ain't no way. See now you now you you you ain't about to you ain't about to be playing with with people like that, trumpy dumpty. We ain't about to we ain't about to do that. You ain't about to you ain't about to play with my Jesus like that. Uh uh. What what's y'all what's you what y'all think about that? What y'all that that that's a that's an odd picture. That that's a very, very odd picture. And then you you the president. The president of the the you the you the United States president. You got more important shit to do than be sitting up here creating these fucking pictures. I don't care if you told somebody to create it. You shouldn't have you should tell them to do some other shit. So make an AI image of uh of a P of a peaceful negotiation between you and Iran, motherfucker, since you want to do that or want to make images. What what the fuck is going on with this this this is ridiculous? No, I I see why why people be they they saying that that that this shit is a joke. And it's a joke because like it's it's like they're they're the joke, and they're not taking people's lives seriously, and that and that's not even a laughing matter within itself.

Draft Anxiety Iran And BRICS

SPEAKER_00 36:53

But even like I said, I did see another article regarding it where they're talking about uh they doing the automatic uh draft like later on in the year. I think you gotta be like if they doing it from like 25 to I think 30 or something like that, or they they are you automatically registered in the draft. I'm like, yeah. Everybody up there talking about Unc and everything like that. Shit. Unk gonna be gonna make sure I send we send you off right now. We're gonna make sure y'all y'all get sent off right. But the only thing, the only reason I'm not like the the draft thing is different, but I like I will if we're trying to strengthen our military, because that's what I really think that it's geared towards, I think this whole Iran thing is just put in place for them to deplete a lot of the a lot of the US's resources and everything like that, just in order to make like a backdoor, like a backdoor blow on us. Because we we for dec for decades, centuries, we've been considered like the big big man on campus, king of the hill. So all of these it's nothing for somebody to be trying to come and capture the flag. So like I I personally think that that's what's going on, and it is like they getting like he basically Trump basically falling for the Okie Doe. Because you remember, we did have the whole entire thing with BRICS where they're trying to devalue the US dollar. So what's to say all of those countries not gonna come together and try to uh try to eradicate or try to make the U.S. play ball as opposed like according to their standards that they're setting? It's it's it's a lot, a lot of variables uh uh to consider and a lot of thoughts that come about that you that you kind of gotta entertain, not really, not really do too much of a deep dive in it, but entertain it a little bit, entertain the possibility of it and rule out why it isn't it's not like the the probability level of it. And that that's that will have a lot of solve a lot of problems, in my opinion. Alright, everybody.

SPEAKER_01 39:32

Let me see what's going on in the chat.

SPEAKER_00 39:38

Yeah, they yeah, they said, like, yeah, a lot of people I know, uh Renee, they said they didn't went and swam with the dolphins and they say it was cool. I'm not messing with it. I'm not messing with it. I toss them some some little sardines and something like that, but yeah, I ain't I ain't messing with it. I can't even swim anyway. So we I'm I'm ruled out of that, I'm ruled out of that category anyway. Yeah, I did see that, did see that late. Iran keep coming with these damn Lego movies and shit like that, and these little Lego videos. They they they doing some shit. They really they really letting letting everybody know that they not backing down. They that they definitely not backing down, and and they and they standing on what's right. And I don't think it's the ones that's standing on it. I don't think that they're a part of the old regime that's being referenced. I think they're they're the upcoming new regime that's just that's trying to take place, and they don't want them to take place because they they're more so they got modernized ideas. That's my opinion, though.

Wrap Up And Tomorrow’s Plan

SPEAKER_00 40:56

But yeah, I'm gonna definitely look more into everything and you know, and have you know, hopefully they release more information about it, and I have more for y'all tomorrow. Other than that, let's I don't have you know, I don't have the music. Flo got the music. Other than that, let me get the I Mouse in the comments, everybody.
