SPEAKER_02

Being black.

SPEAKER_07

That's crazy.

SPEAKER_02

People lose their jobs over being black all the time.

SPEAKER_04

All the time, every day. It's crazy. Because if you see it, sometimes like black people get into shit and then they get, you know, their deals taken away, they get, they gotta go publicly apologize, different things. The other side of different people, they go through the same thing and they are able to still have their deals. You know what I'm saying? They get, it's like they get a little bit more like grace. A little more grace. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Craig lost his job, but they say he was still in boxes.

SPEAKER_06

It was last day, and he ain't got his job.

SPEAKER_07

And it was on Friday. And it was Friday.

SPEAKER_06

How the fuck you lose your job on a Friday? On a Friday. But what happened to his check? He never go get the check. That's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_05

He never got the check. They could have easily solved that little $200 problem that they had.

SPEAKER_02

If you wouldn't got the check. They could have easily solved that.

SPEAKER_03

You think they would have given his job back if he'd have paid them back for the boxes?

SPEAKER_06

He owed them $200, right? That's what we owe Big Burn. Big Sean, Big Burn. But listen. Would you have you ever got fired? You never had a job. Don't even worry about it. Um I had I had jobs, bro. I'm a professional. But here's the thing is like. You got fired from the label. What you got fired from? I've been dropped off the label of Universal. Oh, that's that's the same thing. That's getting fired. Fucking right. We don't want you, nigga. It's the same thing. We don't want your services. We don't want your raps. We don't want your rap.

SPEAKER_00

We don't want your raps crazy. We don't want your raps is crazy. Pack the raps. Pack the raps.

SPEAKER_06

We don't want them raps.

SPEAKER_05

That's what they don't understand.

SPEAKER_04

But it's also. Listen, we had enough of you and your raps. Yeah, but you take your raps. Yeah. You and your raps get the fuck out of here.

SPEAKER_06

You, your homie wood. Go ahead. Get the fuck out of here. Pack your raps up. What? Why do you keep talking about woods with you? Stop with you. Wood was never with me. So why is why is wood popping out your mouth like that?

SPEAKER_03

Paul. I said pause. I said pause. I said pause. I said pause.

SPEAKER_05

But you know what it's like, though? Black people losing losing jobs. They've been losing jobs in this country.

SPEAKER_03

That was nasty, right?

SPEAKER_05

It was very nasty. I just want you to know it was very nasty.

SPEAKER_06

But it's like.

SPEAKER_08

That was crazy.

SPEAKER_06

I call myself though.

SPEAKER_05

No, we've been having to deal with that for so long. So it's just like.

SPEAKER_07

And so you pack your wraps up now.

SPEAKER_05

No, but it's in any but in any any type of industry. So imagine, imag just imagine this, right? Imagine the the white porn actress show up to the set late. Right. She won't get fired. But if the black porn actress show up to the set late, she might get fired.

SPEAKER_02

Which actress?

SPEAKER_01

I think they both gonna get fucked. I don't know if they're gonna get fired.

SPEAKER_07

You're talking about in particular. So what? Which actress? One of them ones that you was naming before? I don't think they fire none of them. No, they ain't fire none of them. They fucking them. I don't think none of them getting fucked. They're not gonna get fired.

SPEAKER_05

They're getting fucked. You know what? I don't like the way you're talking. It's not about fucking. It's it's an art. And the way you just throwing that out there, you don't have respect. You don't have respect. I can tell. It's our form, bro. Definitely an R-form.

SPEAKER_06

Don't just say that. So what's the what is the proper language?

SPEAKER_05

What I'm saying is because it because it's a it's still always a black thing.

SPEAKER_02

The question was, what's the craziest thing you seen somebody get fired for? And I said, Well, being black. So I just gave a scenario. That was a scenario.

SPEAKER_06

So you think a black girl that walks in late to the porno said it's gonna get fired and not get fucked.

SPEAKER_05

Nobody gonna fuck her, they're fired. You missing you missing, she's gonna get fucking fired.

SPEAKER_01

Which one?

SPEAKER_05

You gonna get I'm telling you, you're gonna get canceled. I'm telling you. You're gonna get canceled. Because you keep playing with these communities.

SPEAKER_04

How'd you feel when you got dropped from the label? Like, did you feel a way about it? Was you over it? Did you was you know what? Happy that you got dropped.

SPEAKER_02

I was in Atlanta. Lawyer called me and said, yo, man, the label said you let you go.

SPEAKER_04

You're not a rapper no more.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Been letting you go. You out, you know what I mean? And I was like, Word.

SPEAKER_06

But I don't know, something about me to just told me, just alright, cool. But what happened was that was my first contract. I had a play or pay contract. So they had to pay me out what my contract still was like.

SPEAKER_05

So whatever my whatever my budget was left in the budget, they had to pay me that. So I wound up leaving with more money than they gave me from the beginning.

SPEAKER_04

Honestly, too, like you are who you are. So, you know, record labels sign you. That's like a business deal. Who you are isn't connected to that business deal. So, like any anybody on a come up and, you know, feeling like, you know, that's why being independent in this era is so good, because you don't need somebody to validate your talent anymore, in a sense. You can put it out to the world and let fans validate it. Let people who hearing your music validate it. I think in that time, too, when we were getting signed, labels were the in all be all of if you are a rapper or not. And now you now artists have more of the control of.

SPEAKER_06

No, you're right. I think in that time we associated being successful with being signed. So when I got dropped, something just told me like steady the course. I called Tone, he like, yo, I'ma fix it. I was just like, nah. Something just told me it was something more out there for me. Like, you know what I mean? Like you didn't feel the type of way? I felt some kind of way. Because I felt the type of way when I got dropped. I ain't gonna lie, it hurt your pride. Yeah. Right? It it your ego, your, you know what I mean? You start you questioning shit like, damn, niggas drop me. Like, I didn't even know how to feel about it.

SPEAKER_05

Cause he the way he's saying it's like they want to part ways. He's not saying, you know, they dropping you.

SPEAKER_06

He's like, they want to part ways. But that's what that means. Um, I don't know, just something told me about starting from the bottom again wasn't gonna be that hard. You know what I'm saying? Like, I wanted to get signed out of Atlantic after that. And and any success that I had came from after that, so it was it worked out better.

SPEAKER_04

That's that resilience, man. That's that New York City resilience. 100%.

SPEAKER_06

100%. Never give up, baby.

SPEAKER_04

You ever got fired, Jim?

SPEAKER_06

I got dropped from Sony. You got a drop from Sony? Yeah, that was cool.

SPEAKER_02

What'd they say?

SPEAKER_06

They did it smooth. Uh I forgot the uh white dude name, one of them rock and roll dudes that run it was running it. He was like, uh first I got signed over there when it was it was a lot going on. I signed to Sony.

SPEAKER_03

I had the nigga Dane doing work with me at the time. Beyonce had some dealings over there, Sony. By the time everybody figured it out, they like, yo, we can't have you in the building. But you can take all the money you had.

SPEAKER_06

You got, we got, we gonna do the same thing. You can sign us, sign this paper right here.

SPEAKER_03

You don't owe us nothing, we'll give you the rest of the money. We're gonna just do it as a tax write-off. Smooth walk out of here, it ain't nothing to us, it ain't nothing to you. I was just like, damn.

SPEAKER_06

And my mind is sitting there, but you know you're trying to keep your game face on, but you like, God damn. This is a real route route here that I'm losing. I'm losing a whole route, a whole bank account. You know what I mean? That's how I take all them labels as a as a as a as a bank account. Like that's that's real money that you get to play with. So it definitely didn't feel good, but you know.

SPEAKER_05

Sometimes it's the best thing for you, though.

SPEAKER_01

100%. But I was used to the independent route anyway.

SPEAKER_06

That was the time I chose to dive into taking uh major label deal and shit like that. So it was cool though. I got some money off of it.

SPEAKER_04

Second grade, third grade, they could definitely hold.

SPEAKER_03

Nah, they had the paddle, they had the paddles that you put in your hands.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, let me tell you how I learned. They start you with the paddles that you kick in and shit. The inner tubes.

SPEAKER_06

Do you know the floating inner tube? The big round circle, right? And I would get in it and I would just do that. Do the motion. Do the motions.

SPEAKER_07

It's in between. That's in Brooklyn? Yeah, it's like meah, Marcy. But so I would I would do that all the time. And then I kind of taught myself how to swim. Nobody, I never had lessons or nothing.

SPEAKER_04

I need to learn how to swim this summer. I need a female instructor, though. And I'm gonna lie.

SPEAKER_06

Don't just dive in the water though. Yeah, I would say at this point I would say at this age, at this age, man, a female instructor is valid. Yeah, a female instructor.

SPEAKER_07

SPEAKER_06

I put my son in swimming camp.

SPEAKER_01

I put my son in swimming camp since he was like six or five. Because people put he was like four people.

SPEAKER_07

People have fear of water. Like if they if they're gonna be a big thing. That nigga really know how to swim.

SPEAKER_04

Especially when you're grown. You know that you can drown. You drown very fast. Like you can drown in 40 seconds of water. You're going to the lake to swim in all that.

SPEAKER_01

Like the lake, you're going to swim in the lake, but that's when you grew up in the plant state and all that. That's what they're doing.

SPEAKER_04

People who know how to swim drown.

SPEAKER_01

I saved somebody from my pool, uh, kid in my pool, my man uh uh Eto's son fell in the pool, and people looking at him, and I had to jump in with all my clothes on to bring them out the water.

SPEAKER_06

Like that shit is scary, bro. It is scary. I think you should learn everything early, right? I learned, I was fortunate to learn everything. You can't panic everything early.

SPEAKER_07

That's that's number one.

SPEAKER_06

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_06

Okay. You know what I mean? Shout out to Lowe's. Shout out to Lowe's.

SPEAKER_07

He might be bit at Lowe's now.

SPEAKER_05

You heard though, JB, we want to do something else. Like when we out there working. We want to work at Walmart or Lowe's or something.

SPEAKER_06

How do we ask the people? Uh where do you want to see us working at? Why do you want to see us working at any companies that would like to have us on for a shift for the day, holler at us because we might work it out? Well, how y'all feel about the Knicks after the championship? We feel great. Now leading to the next season, you think we could do it again? What you think about that? We might win five in a row if you really want to. I'm feeling like that. I'm feeling like we got a strong team. We are ready spank niggas. We're gonna come into the season and catch the momentum.

SPEAKER_07

I like all of that, but I'm I'm not. We just won, man. Like, let niggas celebrate what's going on right now. They keep trying to ask, can they do it again, or can they do it again? They just did it. That shit ain't even a week old. Right, right. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_06

Like that's that's the doubters. Same ones that was like never do it.

SPEAKER_04

They want to take the victory away from us right now.

SPEAKER_06

Let us relish in our glory right now, man. Let us have our parade with seven million people outside.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, we got a whole lit summer to have. Like y'all niggas.

SPEAKER_07

Our parade, probably the littest parade of all time. That's why they that's why they that's it's barbering them.

SPEAKER_06

Yes.

SPEAKER_07

You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_06

All right, so we'll we'll we'll wait, we'll wait a couple of months to revisit this. Yeah, let's have that conversation another time. We celebrate our own top, right now. We all have chance. We just won. Let's have that conversation in November. We we bring out brooms this season. We we we got the we got the trophy. Brought heavy brooms out.

SPEAKER_04

It was destined, for real. You know what I mean? The refs wasn't on our side, you know what I mean. And they were playing dirty. Yes. Elbows, pushing. Refs wasn't making no calls, but we we we got through all of that.

SPEAKER_06

We overcame. And let's not.

SPEAKER_07

Let me ask y'all this question about that situation, right? Because I I've seen in just in the history of the NBA other um players get ridiculed for the rest of their career based on sportsmanship. How y'all feel about Wemby just walking off the court?

SPEAKER_06

Wemby saw not that.

SPEAKER_07

He didn't say good game, good series.

SPEAKER_06

He's a fucking cheater. He's a fucking bitch. I don't like his attitude. I didn't like how he approached the whole situation. I could agree. Even at the fucking uh press conference, he looked at like a bitch, talking about, I'm out of here. Y'all never gonna see me again, some wild shit.

SPEAKER_07

He's a rude nigga though. He's a rude nigga. I wanted to get y'all's opinion on it. I seen that and I was like, even with my me playing ball, like niggas could get beat by whatever, like 30, 40 points. You're supposed to go, you know, again, bro. Well, even if you if you tight, like, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_04

What's crazy is I was like a fan of Wimby this whole season, and I never saw that kind of energy during the season. It got real though at the end.

SPEAKER_06

The motions start coming, yeah. It looked like he got a nasty personality, bro.

SPEAKER_04

I thought Wimby was the MVP this year. Like, I thought he was the MVP more than uh Shay. They egged him.

SPEAKER_07

He came to New York and they was throwing eggs at him. I saw that too. Yeah. Right. So that might have played him together. But he got the real thing. We might egg you like that.

SPEAKER_04

He switched his energy up though, the whole playoffs. When they was playing the Timberwolves, he elbowed Nas Reed. He was doing a lot of. A lot of little sneaky shit on the city. I never saw that in his in his game, though. Like that's what too crazy.

SPEAKER_05

He did a lot of little funny shit. He did a lot, I think, and I think his nature is like, I think he's not from America. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_07

Everybody see you leaving. What? Everybody see you leaving. So to not go to the other team and say, yo, Brunson. Because you mean like to just go salute them for what they just did. Nigga, you know.

SPEAKER_04

So like the rest of the dudes gonna look like our leaders just walking off like that. They gonna say something.

SPEAKER_07

Remember Isaiah and them did that? Look how long they they they should have done Isaiah Thomas and Mike.

SPEAKER_06

But the last three games, what the last three games that I noticed with the kid Wemby was that when it came down to two minutes, he started folding. Yeah, he folded. He wasn't ready for that pressure. He folded. The Knicks was on it. When two minutes hit, the Knicks was off. The Knicks was on. It was a ball game. He was folding. He wasn't asking for the ball like he was that man nothing. Like he was he was just like, yeah, he folded.

SPEAKER_04

I think that was a deciding factor of that series. If you look at it, it's like the the Knicks took over the games in the fourth quarter. They knew. Like they knew every time. You know what I'm saying? They came back from 29. Bro, they came back. The game that game five, they was losing that game. Yeah, they were losing that game. Every game they came back and pretty much better than the fourth quarter.

SPEAKER_07

I feel like that was kind of like they uh strategy.

SPEAKER_04

Damn it, like they strategy, the whole play.

SPEAKER_07

It was the rope of dope. Like I that's not. Now we gotta reason the couple. Yeah, that's they did that every game.

SPEAKER_06

I told you that though, Mr. David, that night. So yo, them niggas turned up like it was a part of their plan.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. But if you don't know if nobody plan is to be down 29. That's the way to turn up.

SPEAKER_06

That's the way it looks like. But they was damn they was down in the whole playoffs. All the most important games, they was down. We got the niggas got the game.

SPEAKER_04

It's so crazy, it's like, yeah, we we plan to beat out 29. Like, we're gonna be able to do that. We might as well say we might as well. That's how we do.

SPEAKER_06

You know how that's like when niggas just say I give you 10 points.

SPEAKER_00

I give you shit like that. Give them the 30-point lead. It's crazy. Give them 30. Give them 30 in the finals.

SPEAKER_04

It's crazy. Then we're gonna hit a uh a tip in to win it at the end of the game.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, gee! Valet.

SPEAKER_04

That was a crazy play.

SPEAKER_07

My son, he's Ogua.

SPEAKER_04

I ain't gonna lie. I was debating with myself if that was the best game I've ever seen. That's my man's name, Ogua. I wanna debate it because it just sounds crazy to say that that's the best, but I really don't know another game that somebody came back from 29 points in the finals and win it on a tip.

SPEAKER_06

It was a lot, it was so intense, though. Like, it was so fucking everybody was fucking ready to fucking leave or cry. It was very intense. Emotional roller coaster, bro. That was down the line for real. Like to the last second, to the last point, everything counted. It was like, yo, win, lose a draw. It's never.

SPEAKER_07

That's why I say I don't know if it was in their plan to do that shit, but you be sad until the end of the game. Like, come on, man. Come on, man. For the last three games over the last quarter. The last quarter. Right. They showed commercials to the next one.

SPEAKER_04

Brunson turned up in the fourth quarter, though.

SPEAKER_07

Fourth? Soon's that fourth quarter started.

SPEAKER_04

Brunson turned out. It shifts. Speaking of jobs, though, what up how you feel about your lady working or just staying home? Would you feel away, like, you know, you you get out, you hustle. Would you feel away coming home seeing your person just on the couch every day doing nothing? Would that would that bother you, or you would want your lady to just stay home and handle shit at home?

SPEAKER_01

I mean, depends on if she stayed home and doing nothing and not taking care of the crib and all that's something different. But if it depends on what you sign up for. Some people love females that uh hustle just as much as them, and then some people they gotta they gotta a deal that's made and shit like that.

SPEAKER_06

Like I I'm gonna hold a house down, take care of the family and shit like that, and you're gonna get the bread and shit like that. So it depends on what you're signing up for, I think, from my perspective.

SPEAKER_07

I think the crib is a job.

SPEAKER_06

It's a really heavy job.

SPEAKER_07

Um I can't I couldn't do the crib job. I gotta go get to it. So I don't really feel like um I don't know. I like you said, I feel like it's to each his own. Some some some niggas probably want their woman hustling just as much as them. Some probably don't mind if they if they get holding the crib down. I think it depends on the person like What would you rather? Hold the crib down and get it from the and get it from the city.

SPEAKER_06

Who you talking to? I'm talking to you. You talking to me? Oh I I probably would like a little motion. I'm more used to I like I think it's I'm I'm attracted to a woman that got things going on, I think. You know, um, but I will say what I gotta agree with with Mr. David, the crib is a job, you know. Um and it's kinda like if you whatever you sign up.

SPEAKER_03

But there are women that do both too. There are women that hustle and make sure they take care of the house.

SPEAKER_06

But for me, what I'm attracted to, I'm attracted to a little motion.

SPEAKER_05

I like a woman that got something going on, running her business, running her company, got shit, you know, just getting up, getting out every day, jumping in her G-Wagon or whatever, and going and going to do something. I'm attracted to that. I like that. That turns me on. I want to fuck up when the shit comes on.

SPEAKER_04

It also keeps you on, you hustle, because you know you can't slack her, she's not slacking. Yeah, but I do agree with you and East about uh holding down the crib, especially while you moving around. That is uh a job in itself. You know what I'm saying? I feel like even down to the little things that happen with the crib when you you know you gotta get something fixed, or you the cable people gotta come through, or the internet is acting up, or you know what I'm saying, while you running a lot of times that stuff could just end up getting backed up and you not handling this shit and your trim is all out of whack, you know what I'm saying? Your pool is not working and then that leave. I was gonna say that the other day the other day, all of that kind of thing.

SPEAKER_01

I woke up the other day and the and the pool was back popping. Like I wouldn't, like this shit would have not even opened up this summer if it if it was up to me. Like I would because of the.

SPEAKER_05

You clean that pool, old nigga. You do clean that pool. You know I know. You know I know.

SPEAKER_06

Just throwing that out there. He's a pool cleaner? No, I'm not saying that, but he knows. Nah, I ain't mad at that. He couldn't come to the gym because he had to clean the pool. That's what it's a fact. This is the narrative you want to do. You telling me that's not watching. This is the narrative you want to spread. That's a fact. You have you couldn't come to the gym.

SPEAKER_04

He could go, but he just had to clean the pool for her.

SPEAKER_06

Chrissy said, I gotta clean the pool, man. Okay. This is what we're doing. This is a fact. Okay. This is a fact. Okay, you're in your man, right? This is a fact. You had to clean the pool. And I'm not mad at it. Listen, you got a pool or clean. Like, everybody. I don't have a pool. Everybody got a pool, like, you're blessed.

SPEAKER_02

Chrissy said you had to clean the pool. You clean the pool, nigga. Clean the pool. Clean the pool. Get the pool clean.

SPEAKER_00

I'ma let them slide. Don't laugh. You laughing too hard. You laughing too hard. You on this side, bro. Cool up, bro.

SPEAKER_03

You with me or not, nigga. What's up with you, bro? You you fuck it up, bro. Come on, bro. You getting out of character right now, bro.

SPEAKER_07

You laugh too, man.

SPEAKER_06

He was he was waiting on that bullshit. It's my dog. I love my nigga. If a wife allows her husband to step out on her, ooh, man, we talking. Would you allow your see? If a wife allows her husband to step out on her, should she be able to do the same thing? Why? Absolutely not. Word, like what type of that's not, that's not. She let me do it, so now I'm supposed to know. It's not a tip for tattoo.

SPEAKER_07

You think the lady actually like says that to you? Like, like lets you do that and act like she's cool with that? That's a setup.

SPEAKER_06

It gotta be a setup. It all depends on the thing.

SPEAKER_07

She got a nigga she waiting on to kill.

SPEAKER_06

No, it's not it don't be like a kid. She waiting on her own kill?

SPEAKER_07

She's waiting on a on a on a kid.

SPEAKER_06

She premeditated her kill. Like, let me let this nigga go kill something so I can kill something.

SPEAKER_02

She on a death mission. It's a flip side to that same coin. What's the flip side? May not always be about another man. It could be about women.

SPEAKER_07

She may like, would you like to liquor license?

SPEAKER_02

And we go together. We sign up for the same thing.

SPEAKER_06

You gonna take it to the liquor store? If you ready?

SPEAKER_02

I'm ready.

SPEAKER_06

Let's go to the liquor store. I'm ready. We both ready, whole house ready. Okay? So the thing is, she may let me indulge. A couple bottles at the liquor store. Right. And then she may want to indulge too, right? But it might, it don't always have to be like man. Is it question about being with another man?

SPEAKER_04

It says should she be able to do the same thing. If you stepping out, if she's letting you if she's allowing you to step out, should she be allowed to step out? First of all, you ain't allowing me to do nothing. And second of all, just because you allow me to do so. That don't mean I'm allowing you to do something.

SPEAKER_06

But Maino might have Maino might make sense because it says, should she be able to do the same thing? So should she be able to have sex with women? What? The same thing? Because you're having sex with women. And it says, should she be able to be sexual?

SPEAKER_04

I don't think that's what the same thing means. I mean, that's the way.

SPEAKER_01

I'm just fucking around. But it depends what you're saying, though.

SPEAKER_06

This is what I'm saying, right? It says be able to do the same thing. If she wants a woman and I'm with it. I promote that. I promote it. Is that the only same thing you let her do? I promote woman on woman crime.

SPEAKER_07

I ain't mad at it.

SPEAKER_06

Girl on girl crime. I promote that. It's like black on black crime, huh? I'm not mad at it. Yes, it's a black crime. It's explosive. This is very explosive. Very explosive. Just the people going. Provocative. The provocative nigga. I tell you what. But I tell you what. I don't want to. You know what? I want to be in a healthy relationship. I don't want to be like, you let me step out, and now because you let me step out, you want to step out too. You want to let niggas fuck you.

SPEAKER_03

That's a fucked up argument. Yeah, I don't know if I want to. That's a bad argument because it's gonna come to pause. Sooner or later.

SPEAKER_07

You gotta know it's a setup. Sooner or later.

SPEAKER_06

You just might as well cheat. Sooner or later.

SPEAKER_07

You gotta know it's set up. Sooner or later it's gonna come. The question is gonna come about.

SPEAKER_01

It's gonna start like this too. So it's a setup. What happened if I you ain't gonna be mad if I do the same thing you did?

SPEAKER_06

I hate them conversations. You're not a man, first of all.

SPEAKER_04

That's where we, you know, we move in a goalpost a little bit, but we're not the same people. It's not this way. Wait a minute. God made me this way. You can't pull a me on me.

SPEAKER_03

And you let me, you like first of all, first of all, I don't like the setup. David's right. It all leads back to the is the set, it's the setup is terrible. We're not jacking it. It's not right. I tell you what, I tell you what, not fit to do that. Let's just keep things the old-fashioned way. I tell you what.

SPEAKER_07

It's definitely a setup, bro. If you allow you to sleep with another woman in How does she allow you to do that?

SPEAKER_06

Right, that's what I'm saying. I don't even like that word. You're not allowing me to do that. I'd rather just do what I'm doing and you don't, and you don't, you're not in my business.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, why you gotta keep record of what's going on? Like, I don't, it's this, it this feels funny, this question. I don't like it. I don't know how to answer it. Like allow.

SPEAKER_05

Allow, allow, allow, allow is triggering. Allow throw everything's off.

SPEAKER_06

Allow is triggering. Because I feel like I'm a slave. It's authority involved, like I feel restrained.

SPEAKER_04

Slave to your relationship.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I feel restrained. I don't like it. I feel like you kind of cover all corners.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_06

You don't gotta hide this from me. If you want to, if if some days you just want pussy and you don't want no dick, it's cool. That's why that's why we all here.

SPEAKER_07

So if you put your girl on a bar and she's smoking somewhere else by herself, you feel the way? That's the same shit. Like, damn, you smoking without me.

SPEAKER_06

It ain't the same thing, Mr. Davis. It's not. It's not.

SPEAKER_00

It depends what you're addicted to.

SPEAKER_06

No matter how you look at it, it's not the same thing. Nah, it could you. If she wasn't smoking before me, it could be a way smoking. So if your girl starts smoking with another nigga, it's like the same thing. Like, yo, why are you what? That's crazy.

SPEAKER_01

That's crazy. You put your old girl on the smoker and then you find out she's smoking with the next nigga.

SPEAKER_07

She shouldn't have to do that. Now she get high she get she get high high.

SPEAKER_02

She shouldn't have to do that though. She should be, you should, this is a safe space. You should be able to, you should be able to wake up and and and lust after the woman that we we both like.

SPEAKER_06

Like you don't gotta hide that from me. You don't gotta go to movies without me.

SPEAKER_01

It's just it's just hypothetical, man. It's not it's just a scenario. It's not a scenario. It's not it's not that's triggering. Yeah, I see.

SPEAKER_03

We yeah, my bad. We didn't want to put you. It's the thought of that bothers me. Yeah, we see. We sorry. We apologize.

SPEAKER_01

You my man, though. You heard?

SPEAKER_06

I don't want to be left out, man. Pharrell has Pharrell has added skate sneakers into the rotation at Luis Vuitton.

SPEAKER_01

Is the price tag worth it when Vans are a classic and right there? So, how you feel about uh Pharrell uh knocking on Vans swag?

SPEAKER_07

I ain't mad. I wear Vans, I wear Louis, like it's you know, like I feel like a lot of brands bite. You know what I mean? Like they they see shit and do you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_05

Every brand bites, car brands bite.

SPEAKER_07

You got people that that want to say, nigga, these the Louis Vans. So these the Louis Vands.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that's so that's now that's that's my next question.

SPEAKER_07

You know what I mean? Like, you got people that want to flex because you paid $100 for yours and they paid $15 for theirs, like and it looked the same.

SPEAKER_06

This is this is what I want to know. So Pharrell came out with uh regular skateboard outfit, skater outfit on.

SPEAKER_01

Jeans, those, gray hoodie, regular look that costs maybe a hundred dollars. Van sneakers, some jeans, and a gray zip up hoodie or whatever. Now it's all Louis Vuitton, guaranteed to be over $2,000. Does it make it does it make it different that it's Louis, or could you could you just still do the vans and look feel just as swaggy?

SPEAKER_05

I'm not into I'm not in a van. So I wouldn't want I would it wouldn't matter if they Louis for me. Like I wouldn't be like, nah, I ain't in advance and go like, oh, he's the Louis, I'm gonna buy them. I would never buy, I would never wear. That's just not my stilo. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. He's perplexed about the situation.

SPEAKER_06

I really don't know with this one. He's pondering. I do it both though.

SPEAKER_03

I can't, I ain't gonna front.

SPEAKER_05

I'm not mad at him jacking them though. Let's that's that's what I'm saying. Like, I'm not mad at because people look, cars, all everything, business, all brands, everything.

SPEAKER_06

Everybody steals idea, everybody takes things from, you know what I mean? Like one car come out with the this type of camera and this type of light, LED, this, and the next thing you know, all cars go.

SPEAKER_01

For me, it makes it easier to mix the outfit now, because I might I might just go Louis jeans and Louis belt with with a $10 zip of gray hoodie ain't gonna think it's all Louis. Like, who gives a fuck? It just because he you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_07

But you got people that that that only shop in a Louis store that's never going to Vans. Then you got people that shop in Vans that can't never go to a Louis store.

SPEAKER_01

So Yeah, but all these looks are deriving from a certain from something that's theirs. Nothing's like it's nothing, it's nothing original about these looks. They just put a high fashion name and to the same look.

SPEAKER_06

So it's like, is it even really hot? Yeah, like this has been done before. Supreme does it all the time. Same look, let's just put a name on it. But now when Louis does it, is it accepted or is it fashion or like where's the do you feel like where's the creativity? Like, where's the Louis?

SPEAKER_05

For me, not no, because I don't, I'm not a Vans type of guy anyway. I don't I'm that's not something that I want to wear. Period. So I would, I wouldn't, it matters if it's Louis, it don't matter what it is, I'm not gonna wear it.

SPEAKER_04

I think also it's perspective too, because I mean knowing Pharrell, I don't think Pharrell needs to bite anybody's style in a sense. Pharrell is a very um creative and innovative uh person in our culture. Um we've seen him change music, we've seen him change fashion. Um we even seen him change music and fashion as far as being a guy who started as a producer and is now the head designer at Louis Vuitton. So I think it also could be an evolution of Vans and of Louis Vuitton. Um it could be taking a Louis Vuitton and making it as a simple silhouette as a van. And it could be making bands with the texture and the and the craft work of Louis Vuitton. So it could be a uh that's why perspectively it could be, you know, him just trying to evolve a van type of shoe into a Louis Vuitton shoe.

SPEAKER_05

You know Van Wetano, bro, right? You know Vans wet.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I I I did see them say uh something about you know, Pharrell, like the shoe, it they it looks like a Van shoe. Everybody in the world would say that, but that's why I said it could be the evolution of a van in Louis Vuitton form. The same way they collabed, even though it's different, they collabed Louis with Nikes, they've collabed Louis with Timberlands. Um this one is not isn't a collab, but it's still an evolution. That was an evolution with doing a collab with those joints.

SPEAKER_02

It was an evolutionary jack. I mean niggas. That's shit. Yeah, he jacked up.

SPEAKER_03

And I don't disrespecting nobody. Um I love Pharrell. He jacking that.

SPEAKER_06

I love Pharrell, but I think that uh like he just he just when I look at fashion, I'm trying to look at the new fly shit, and he just putting luxury on shit that we already do.

SPEAKER_01

Like, it's no different for what niggas grab the car heart and put their name on it, and now that same $60 carhart jacket is now twelve hundred dollars and shit like that. You understand what I'm trying to say?

SPEAKER_06

It's like, so when I look at when uh people like Virgil was doing it, or even designs of form, when I used to go to Louis was just to find the shit that we couldn't find uptown.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't want to go down to Louis to get an expensive version of shit that I could already get on 125 street.

SPEAKER_06

It's like when Virgil was the Avias.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but even like when you say that, right? When they was doing those collabs, some of these people have never seen Avius. So those first Louis Vuitton-shaped silhouettes of an aviation sneaker is the first of their same thing with bands. Somebody, somebody, honestly, may not even know that band shoe. I of course we've seen it, but let's say somebody who hasn't seen it and they know Louis Vuitton.

SPEAKER_06

They're gonna go buy the Louis Vuitton bands and think I was talking about the way Virgil was like, he did what people were doing, like make the luxury of that steady, we know, but he also brings new flavor and new different shit that niggas could look forward to inside of them luxury department stores and shit like that that you go down there for, is more or less what I was saying. Like, I don't like to go in a specific place to buy shit that I know I could get up to, and that's all I'd be saying. Like that's so you you would go for the for the regular Yeah, I'm still gonna go buy the jeans and the regular hoodie we've been buying with the constructions and shit like that. I don't need the Louis constructions and shit like that. I go buy the regular constructions. I don't need the, you know what I mean? Like, it's all aesthetics. It's all aesthetics, is what I'm saying. So it's nothing different about Louis. What I'm saying, when we went to Louis, we didn't go to Louis to buy no hip hop shit. Right. We went to Louis to buy something different.

SPEAKER_01

We went to Louis to buy some high fashion fly shit. When they continue in it, it didn't look like nothing that we already know.

SPEAKER_05

You got a point, though.

SPEAKER_06

Bon or Louis Tim's, are they different? Are they it is a difference? What's the difference?

SPEAKER_04

The Louis ones cost $2,500 and the regular ones cost $200.

SPEAKER_06

I know, but what's the difference in the boot?

SPEAKER_04

That's the difference. That's the same with the vans in the difference in the boot, though. It has Louis, they're Louis Vuitton Tim's. That's the difference. It's just the name. But he's just it's the name. It's the brand. You're gonna always pay for a name.

SPEAKER_07

The name is what you're paying for.

SPEAKER_04

Paying for the name.

SPEAKER_07

Paying for the name.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, we all got on logos here. Let's not be But the that's that's what he's saying, though. I'm not gonna pay for that.

SPEAKER_07

And Mano, certain names don't gotta really like promote.

unknown

Right.

SPEAKER_07

You don't see for commercial. I got Jordans.

SPEAKER_01

But I'm not going to go get the Louis Vuitton looking Jordans if they made some Jordans that look like Louis Vuitton Jordans.

SPEAKER_06

You wouldn't get if it was a collab.

SPEAKER_04

A collab Jordan.

SPEAKER_07

Or if Louis dropped a sneaker that was just made like a Jordan, but it wasn't a Jordan collab. I don't think I would want them neither.

SPEAKER_06

Niggas didn't want the Dior ones? I never brought I had one pair of spectrum. One pair of Dior's. You have one pair of Dior's or one pair of Dior. But that was a collab.

SPEAKER_07

That was a collab. That was a collab and a Dr.

SPEAKER_04

Dior, but the difference is there's the ones, and then there's the Dior ones. So it's two, it's it's two different worlds in a sense. And brands, really, to be honest, y'all, brands is really just consistency of that brand. Jordans have consistently put out these shoes for 30, 40 years. You know the shoe, you know the brand, you know the collabs, you know the texture, you know what the history behind Michael Jordan. That's the same thing. Nike is this all of these shits is brands. When you look at the the high fashion brands, you're looking at them for their quality in the name that they built. They built their name off of quality. So it's the consistency of the brand that means what it means. It's not just like, like you said, Tim's just putting Louis on it, but you know Louie because it's Louie. They consistently been Louie. That's it. It's our brands. Our brands have consistently been who we are and what we've been doing for this time. So there is a difference if you want to pay for the difference or not.

SPEAKER_05

You should pay for the paying for the the value in the name. The name itself is value.

SPEAKER_06

I ain't gonna lie, I play into it, but I don't be all for it and shit like that. Like, you know what I mean? Like, I get a bucket. Huh? That's a Louis bucket. That's a Louis bucket, yeah. That's why you ain't got a regular bucket. So what you say are fishing is a point, though. Buckets are fishermen hats. They're not from the hood. Well, why you don't have a regular fisherman hat though on it? The $10 one.

SPEAKER_05

For why?

SPEAKER_06

I just say I I just said I play into it too. You play it all the way into it.

SPEAKER_01

But I also got on some some shorts that I got for free. Oh, right, but that's what you're saying.

SPEAKER_04

But that bucket costs like a regular bucket. How much?

SPEAKER_05

That bucket is about $800. Easy. Maybe more than that.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, don't cheat me.

SPEAKER_07

You said one that's not Louis? One that's not Louis.

SPEAKER_06

The one that's not Louis is $12. Right. You get it for shorts.

SPEAKER_07

Shorty, shorty. Shorty. Why you got that?

SPEAKER_01

USA. They don't make the one like Louis like this.

SPEAKER_02

But they ain't gonna have that same reverse with the reverse.

SPEAKER_01

This is the reverse joint.

SPEAKER_02

So you did go you did play into it though.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Fuck you talking about bucket low like feeling.

SPEAKER_04

So go get the Louis Timms. Yeah, I'm gonna go get the Louis Bucket, but I don't want to do the Louis.

SPEAKER_06

Do you understand what's happening here? I did the Louis Thames. I ain't gonna fucking. You won't get the Louis Timbs, but you get the Louis Bucket. Yeah. I feel like if you watch that. If you were really a Trembling nigga, you still episode. Right, how does that make sense?

SPEAKER_04

You called him last episode, he was saying that he on the crash out and they seen a video of him.

SPEAKER_06

I said I played into it a little bit, but I'm just saying, like, I still do all car heart instead of going to go.

SPEAKER_02

I think we all still do the wonderful.

SPEAKER_01

I'm still wearing the car or the army jacket. Like I'm still wearing the regular items as opposed to diving all the way into getting a whole design of fit or some shit we could get up town.

SPEAKER_05

You having that Louie hat on kind of I was with you until he pointed that out.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. It's fly, that's why, right? It is flying. It is fly. We good there.

SPEAKER_03

We try to catch me out there on my f on contradict me because I got some fly shit on it.

SPEAKER_01

You out there. I got five. That's what I'm saying, woman. They say it's a good bucket. Don't try to put me out there like that. I'm getting sick of this Brooklyn Harlem shit. These niggas really trying to put me on the funny niggas.

SPEAKER_06

We unified. No such thing.

SPEAKER_01

So then why you well, what's the matter?

SPEAKER_06

But we gotta be real with the people, though. I can't agree with you on the other hand.

SPEAKER_01

And I'm real with the people.

SPEAKER_06

I said I don't feel I told you how I feel about going to stores like Louis Vuitton. The niche items are cool, but I don't think that I want to go buy down there, buy an outfit I could get from 25th and spend 10,000 on it. I get what you're saying. You're not because certain things that's that's not that you feel like is regular, it's not fashion forward, it's not different, it's nothing different, it's some regular shit. Like that bucket. Not this fly. Right, but you can get one of those at the hardware store. No, not this one.

SPEAKER_05

No, you can get that out of the party. Not this one.

SPEAKER_06

Not this one. You can get that at a target. Not not this one. Definitely one. Not this one, not this one, not this one. Same style. Not this one. Not this one. Definitely Target.

SPEAKER_07

Y'all never get in a mood where you just say, I want to just go. I would say official store, you might go get this one.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_07

SPEAKER_02

Studies show that men find women in less makeup more attractive. What's your take? Does it matter? Does it matter if women got on a lot of makeup or she got on less makeup?

SPEAKER_07

I don't like makeup.

SPEAKER_04

I'm not that bothered by makeup, but I like I really appreciate natural. I don't like it at all. At all. You don't want it at all. No.

SPEAKER_07

What's that at all? I mean, if you guys, if you, you know, if that's if you feel like that dude does what it does for you that night or for whatever you got going on. But I ain't a fan of that shit.

SPEAKER_06

You ever felt like a woman was more prettier without it?

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. So it's I personally feel like you are prettier without it, because you you you have to make it. No, not everybody's pretty without it. No, not everybody. I'm not speaking for everybody.

SPEAKER_06

Right, right, right.

SPEAKER_07

But I think makeup can create a whole nother person.

SPEAKER_06

Right. In some cases.

SPEAKER_01

Because they'd be called the shit out of that shit. But I think for certain events, a little makeup somebody's. A little makeup is needed. I don't think makeup is needed every day. Like, that's crazy.

SPEAKER_06

A woman got to nothing without no makeup.

SPEAKER_07

I get the doll shit, the glam up. I get all of that as far as a woman. But women.

SPEAKER_06

But when they go out, they step in, they go in the mirror, they go in a harbor, they go on an aura 57, they partying. Every trip? Party nights? Every trip. Every trip. They want they want to get, you know, they want to get their face beat, their hair done.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not a fan.

SPEAKER_06

Got it. So, so so here's the thing. I got I look at this two different ways. Some women do.

SPEAKER_07

I think if you wear it every day, then you eventually have to wear it every day. Because it's gonna pack your skin up. So then you start seeing, like, oh, you gotta wear makeup now.

SPEAKER_06

I like this girl. And I and she was coming to see me, and I was I used to always tell her, like, yo, look, let your freckles show they're beautiful. Stop covering up, stop caking your face up with makeup. It's like you're giving yourself another face.

SPEAKER_07

You ever had on crispy white tea? Like one of the like the crispiest of all. They hug you, get it, they give you the little Jesus face. And then you ready to go home? They give you the little Jesus face right now. Throw your tea away?

SPEAKER_05

Hundred percent.

SPEAKER_07

All you did was one of these? Hey, how you doing? You ain't do nothing too crazy.

SPEAKER_05

And then you got Jesus right there.

SPEAKER_07

That's what I'm talking about.

SPEAKER_05

100%. I know what you're doing.

SPEAKER_07

I'm not a fan of none of that, bro.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, I don't like it.

SPEAKER_07

You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_05

But some of them, look, the girl I tell her, I said, look, if you gonna come, if you're gonna drive all the way up here and you got all that makeup, wipe that shit off. Break it down. Like it's too much. Like you covering up your natural beauty. But I've been in situations where it was like one night, it was like you seen a girl, she was made up, she was dolled up, and then it was like, oh, okay, we lit, something happened, and I wake up and it's no more makeup. It's like, oh shit, who the fuck is you?

SPEAKER_07

Well, with the same person.

SPEAKER_05

It's a different person.

SPEAKER_00

Witchcraft.

SPEAKER_07

You was catfished.

SPEAKER_00

Fish craft, you heard that shit? Fish craft. That shit is black and fish craft.

SPEAKER_03

That shit is fish craft. You heard like that's crazy, bro.

SPEAKER_06

I know how you feel, that's crazy.

SPEAKER_07

I get it.

SPEAKER_06

Like I said, I get it because And that's the reason why some girls need makeup, also. Because they're insecure about their looks.

SPEAKER_05

I think women think that they need it, and I think that they think that men want to see more.

SPEAKER_01

No, they don't they don't think nothing about the men. Let's get this clear let's get this clear. Women do not put on makeup for men, bro. They put on makeup for other women. Women don't get dressed for men, they get dressed for other women. They don't buy bags for men.

SPEAKER_06

They buy of course in the in the natural sense they're gonna look good, but I'm telling you that they do this in a competition of with other women.

SPEAKER_01

For the camera with social media now. A lot of it's for the cameras.

SPEAKER_06

You can't judge the girl's face when she looks another girl because, oh, her shit is beat.

SPEAKER_00

She beat, oh girl, that shit is you that shit is oh the no.

SPEAKER_01

You they doing it for uh we don't give them them type of compliments when they come here, come you with their face made. Do you give her a crazy compliment? You do you compliment her eyebrows and her and her blush and her shadow and her eyelashes? Do you compliment all that?

SPEAKER_06

No, but I think when they most she might be like, you look good. Right. Girls is gonna inspect everything.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, she got the fur eyelashes, oh she got the fur eyelashes, but I think that they think that when they step in, that you know, that it it's attractive to men. Period. Whether it's a you don't gotta break it all in a hell.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not saying they don't think they're attractive to men, but I'm saying they put all these things on more for women than they do for us, bro.

SPEAKER_05

What do you think, Spencer?

SPEAKER_04

I'm not mad at I feel like women now, like makeup has become a normalcy when they're going out when they wanna up their look a little bit. Um, but me personally, I appreciate natural beauty a lot more. Especially in a time where everybody is making up their face. So I think even when you take the makeup off, you still gotta have a natural beauty, a natural confidence of yourself. And I think that's what I look, that's what I look for the most. You know what I mean? Natural. I like that answer.

SPEAKER_07

I feel like that with everything. If you need it, you need it. If you don't, you don't. I feel like that goes with anything from hair, makeup, I feel like all of that. Like some need it, some don't. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_04

Makeup, everyone become a normal side. I feel like you shouldn't be able to do that. They don't even have to, but they feel like it enhances their look. Even down to hair, like you said. Some girls have hair and they still add more hair. They put their hair in braids and put on the room.

SPEAKER_06

We see how we saying, yo, we like natural women. You could tell most women you would, yo, we like you like natural woman. She don't give a fuck about that shit. She's gonna put the makeup on, bro. You're right. You know why? You don't care about what we think, bro. You know why you're listening to me. You know why? Let me tell you something. Let me agree with you for once. Let me agree with you.

SPEAKER_07

Y'all like them lashes, them shits that be doing this? The buff butterfly joint. I like the little lippy.

SPEAKER_05

I go for a little lippy. A little lippy?

SPEAKER_06

I like a little lippy, a little lip filling on it. Like lippies? I like a little lippy, yeah. Lippy is bad. Lippy is crazy. You do a little injection, baby. A little lippy. Listen, little Ken Kendall. Sound like a little lippy. Yo, look, check this out. What you're saying is right because it's like when I kept telling that girl, like, yo, it's like you don't have to keep caking the makeup up. It was like I was talking to a brick wall. Keep putting it on. She don't care because after she leaves you, she gotta go deal with her friends, and her friends are gonna be like, girl, we got makeup at it. You ain't no. Some makeup, when it's done right, enhances certain things. Yes, it does. Right? But some, it's like, don't, if you, if you if you look like a whole nother person, I don't like that.

SPEAKER_05

If you like a whole nother person, and then when you take it off, you look like a no, I don't, I don't like it. You need to look like that.

SPEAKER_01

But the way society is set up, these women uh don't have uh they have low self-esteem. So when they look at themselves in the mirror and they don't feel like they fit the script, naturally they gonna put this makeup on and make them feel that that much better. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

You think they feel up the same way about niggas that get spray?

SPEAKER_06

What spray?

SPEAKER_07

That shape up shape.

SPEAKER_06

Beijing, Beijing, and all that is his.

SPEAKER_07

And then niggas start sweating and then they don't got the same line that the girl met them with? Because niggas wear makeup.

SPEAKER_06

That's not the same thing though.

SPEAKER_07

Niggas wear makeup. Anything, I think makeup is anything you do to enhance how you look.

SPEAKER_01

100%.

SPEAKER_07

If you're enhancing your look. If you take a shower, that's makeup. When you wash your body, your face with soap and all that. When you get out of the shower, that's naturally you. Before you do any, add anything. You Beijing a little bit, that's makeup. That's makeup.

SPEAKER_06

I don't think so. If you're barbing you with a little corner, that's a men, that's L makeup. I don't think that's makeup. Makeup is on your face, brother.

SPEAKER_05

Makeup is making your face look different. No. Absolutely. It's contouring your nose and makeup and all that. That's making this a difference. It's the same thing. You're making your shape up the same thing.

SPEAKER_06

You're making your shape up look like it's something's not.

SPEAKER_03

No.

SPEAKER_06

I don't I don't fuck with my shape up. I'd line my shape up the way it is. But what I'm trying to tell you, I don't think it's the same thing. I don't think I don't think it's the same thing. I don't use Beijing, but I'm telling you, that's a form of makeup. And females. And females could feel the same way looking at looking at a nigga with Beijing like that.

SPEAKER_07

For men. Um niggas dying. Is it bringing is it bringing niggas back to life? Is an enhancement?

SPEAKER_02

I don't think so. Straight up. I don't care what you think.

SPEAKER_07

When niggas is gray and they dye their shit, that's not enhancement? That's not makeup? That's not it's enhancement.

SPEAKER_02

It's not makeup.

SPEAKER_07

That's an enhancement.

SPEAKER_04

That's what I say. Right.

SPEAKER_02

It ain't it ain't the same thing as.

SPEAKER_04

You're making your shit up.

SPEAKER_02

It ain't how your shit is. It's hair color. It's not the same thing as you going to sleep and taking your whole face off.

SPEAKER_06

That beard will be on that pillow. But we say that women may feel the same way about somebody with a crazy Beijing hairline or a whole Beijing Caesar. And then they get caught in the ring. Niggas out here going Beijing crazy.

If it if it's if it if it's like a whole nother face and then you look like a whole nother person, I'm like, oh shit, who the fuck are you? In the morning. If I'm shocked in the morning and I don't know who the fucking person was.

SPEAKER_06

This is gonna be hell. 1-800, man. Man, you know, me being his love doctor, I got I got what you need, baby. Check this out. Okay, I met this dude in my early 20s and fell for him. He was still tied up with his baby mother, so we weren't able to build. A lot happened and we stopped talking. Okay, got it. When we weren't speaking, I lost my virginity to someone else. Then ended up having a baby with another dude that is his homie. Oh God. I didn't know at the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fast forward, I'm 28 now, and me and him are back talking. The feelings never really left, and I got love for him and care for him heavy. But he really ain't available, yet he says he wants to work on us. My question is, how long do you hold on to somebody you always wanted when your life keeps showing you that they aren't fully available? Am I holding on to something real or am I in love with what could have been all these years?

SPEAKER_02

Oh wow. So you had a baby with another nigga, and then you got back, you got back talking to him. Are y'all having sex?

SPEAKER_07

She had a baby with his man. Where's his man at? Is you still with his man? She didn't have a baby with a nigga.

SPEAKER_06

That's his homie. Because you getting messy now, ho. Don't do that. Don't do that. My bad. Don't do that. My bad, bro. Ain't nothing wrong with them people, bro. My bad, my bad, my bad. People humans, bad, my bad. You're right. They got the same rights as we got. You're right, but we can't give no people a pass if they being messy. That's different from calling them a 304. 304's got rights. It's a garden tool. It is a garden tool. And they make a mess. Stop it, bro. But here's the thing, though, though. If you went, if you had a baby by his friend, how how how much do you think that he's willing to invest in you? At some point, it's common sense, right? You didn't know that this was his guy. So if I was if I was him, I wouldn't be super invested in you. I would probably be just around for fun, fun time. I'll be around for, you know, shits and giggles, you know, some jackflex and pussy, you know. How she ain't know.

SPEAKER_07

That's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_06

Maybe, I don't know. Maybe she met him at a she maybe she didn't know. I don't know. I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt. I'm giving her grace.

SPEAKER_01

I'm giving her grace.

SPEAKER_06

I'm giving her grace. I'm giving that lady grace. There's a difference between me and I'm a gentleman. I'm giving her grace. So she ain't know that they're gonna be able to do it. It was homeboy. She fucked that man. She took that condom off. Grace. That man didn't have a man had a poor pullout game and she got pregnant. She had a baby. Okay? And now she back with the original nigga. No, she didn't say, first of all, she didn't even say she left the old nigga. She didn't even.

SPEAKER_01

She did not specify that. She did not know that.

SPEAKER_06

She said, and now that I'm back with the new dude, she didn't say she left the old nigga. I hate when a nigga argues on me. Read it. Straight up. Go back to the other one. Read it. Let's see if she left him. We stopped talking. A lot happened and we stopped talking. Not the baby father. That's the first one. The first dude. Right, that's the first dude.

SPEAKER_05

Go ahead. She stopped talking to the guy. She got back, got with another nigga, and then had a baby by the by the by the uh by the uh by the friend.

SPEAKER_06

Now she went back to the what's the name? But she didn't say she left the baby father yet. Now I understand what you're saying.

SPEAKER_07

I'm talking about me took up a journey and had a.

SPEAKER_06

So you might want to move on. You had a baby by his friend. You gotta be realistic. If you had a baby by his friend, how how serious could he possibly be? You understand? Like him and the guy are still friends, right? So you might wanna take this on a chin.

SPEAKER_01

She might just want to smash too. That's what it seems like.

SPEAKER_06

No, she looking for something further. She looking for she, that's why she asking. Right? He's not really fully available. He's not really fully available because he's thinking about the fact that you had a baby by his homeboy. So you might wanna start moving moving moving along. Okay? Move on. Move along? Move along. Because it's not gonna work. Trust me, I know.

SPEAKER_01

So she's not a messy 304.
