Um, man, Tiger Woods, man. These mugs are just big shout out to Tiger Woods. Listen, Tiger Woods, you don't gotta listen to me. You don't gotta listen to DJ Abs. But let me just give you one piece of advice that will probably help you out in the long run. Get yourself a driver. Seriously, get yourself a driver. All right? Because we want to see you continue winning, you know what I mean? We want to see you out there, you know what I mean? But you can't just be jumping in your car all tipsy and getting DUIs, man. And next you know, your mugshot is just out there looking crazy with your hair lined back. Like, come on, man. Come on, man. And how are you gonna refuse to take a piss when they ask you to take one? Don't refuse. You're making things worse. All right? Look at me. DJ Apps giving Tiger Woods advice. Well, oh man, I don't know. I don't know. But Tiger, like, we gotta stop it. All right? Get yourself a driver. Alright? Stop driving. Stop driving. Alright. Vince McMahon, that goes for you too. You shouldn't be driving. We saw what you did the other day. We saw what you did the other day. Need you to stop that. Alright? Big shot to Tony Neal. Tony Neal is one of my uh good friends, man, a great DJ. Um, you know, you'll be catching him late night, doing some RB stuff on the live and stuff. But he's also known for core DJs. That is a massive DJ squad here in uh uh in this world. Um, core DJs have a lot of great DJs, you know what I mean, that help break records for a lot of artists. They do what I do, you know. I mean, we enjoy breaking records. Um, and and and I saw Tony Neal post uh um an event and it said fake. Okay, so this is what I want to say. Those that are putting up fake events for artists to go perform. Yeah, I seen it. You're putting up, you're getting these artists money, and it's really fake. There's nothing, you know, positive about the event. May not even be going down, but the event is fake. Stop doing that. I these artists work hard on their craft, they work hard on their performance, they work hard on their music, you know what I mean, and they they they really save up to invest in themselves. You know what I mean? So, you know, those that are trying to do fake events to get these artists to come perform, and nothing really ain't happening, you don't got no motion, you ain't got no real judges to come view what's going on, whatever the case is, like stop it. Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it. All right? It's not cool. It's not cool. Because the ones that are doing good, like I do in my live, like Tony Neal does, like you know, Fleet DJ does, like, you know what I mean? Like, you're making us look bad. You you mean like we need y'all to stop that. All right, stop that. All right, um ladies and gentlemen, um I want to ask you guys a question. Have you learned a lesson that allows you to read people better? I'm gonna repeat myself. Have you learned a lesson that allows you to read people better? You know, I I ran into a couple of situations recently where you thought someone was that person, but they did something, you know, either to you or they just did something that was just like not good, and you learn that lesson and you end up reading them better, like, damn. You know what I mean? This is really you. Or maybe my homeboy was right about you, or maybe that girl was right about you, like, you know what I mean? Cause you you would have to sometimes go through things, you know, to learn that lesson to end up reading that individual a little better. So, you know, I you know, I just wanted to say this. Everybody, pay attention to who you hanging with, who you dealing with, you know what I mean, who you're partnering up with, you know what I mean? And and read signs, read signs, all right? Because you might end up learning a lesson that allows you to read that person better or anybody better, all right? Just wanted to say that, alright? Um, man, so I saw Jay Z doing the interview with GQ Magazine, and and and I think he hopped on some other interviews and whatnot. But um, the one interesting part of the interview that I was um paying attention to the most was talking about, you know, the DJs. Remember when we talked the other day that DJs are not being um, we're not in the forefront no more. You know, back in the days it was Eric B and Rakham. You know what I mean? You know, it was like, you know, DJs are not in the forefront. Me, I speak for myself. I'm always in the forefront of my business, my brand, DJing, period. You know what I mean? When it comes to DJ Epps, is DJ Epps. Yes, if I go on the road with a uh uh uh a certain artist, or if I do stuff for Rock the Bell Cruise, it's all about all of us. But at the same time, when it's my time, when it's my hour, my two-hour show, it's about me. You're gonna pay attention to me. I'm the forefront. I'm DJ Epps. I'm gonna curate the room, I'm gonna make you happy. It's all about DJ Epps, and it's always gonna be like that with me and my brand. You know what I mean? Um, but you know, he was saying something in the lines of, you know, the four elements of hip-hop. And we all know the four elements of hip-hop, right? B-boying, graffiti, mceeing, and of course DJ. Um, but when he announced the four elements and said, you know, DJing, B-Boy, Graffiti, instead of MCing, he said battling. A lot of people, you know, was commenting, like, yo, I don't believe we're here um either disagreeing or correcting Jay-Z. You know what I mean? Um, you know, MC. A lot of MCs go through a lot of battles, tons of battles. You know what I mean? Um, so most of us that, you know, are hip hop, we knew what he meant. We knew what he meant. You know what I mean? I don't think there was no um, we didn't have to like, you know, correct him. We knew what he meant. You know what I mean? Um but just understand that, you know, battling DJ's battle, MC's battle, b boy is they battle, and even graffiti artists battle. So you have to understand that, you know, what he meant. Instead of using MC, he used the word battling. I mean, um, so you know, just you know, he didn't do wrong. Not in my eyes, he didn't do wrong, he didn't say wrong. I knew exactly what he meant. Most of us knew exactly what he meant. Right. Um but for those that don't know who what the four elements of hip hop, and I'm talking about this time, this age, this era, viands. If you don't know what the four elements of hip hop is, DJing, MCing, B-Boy, and graffiti. Alright? Alright? Alright. Alright, man. Big shout to Kirk Franklin. Um, you know, he he he he said something the other day that I I really enjoyed. Um live for today and understand that God already has your tomorrow handled. Like you gotta, you know, I mean my boy Tito was saying that the other day too. You know what I mean? Like, you gotta enjoy your day today. You never know what tomorrow is gonna bring you, but at the same time, God already has tomorrow handled for you. Whether you like it or not, he already has it handled for you. So enjoy today. Live for today. You know what I mean? Cherish your family, your wife, your spouse, your kids, whatever. Husband, like, live for today. And tomorrow is already handled. You're gonna wake up, you're gonna touch, your your two feet's gonna touch the ground, you're gonna have a great breakfast, you're gonna have a great day, you know what I mean? And so on. So yeah, man. Once again, big up to Kirk Franklin. Um, man, this week has been a very, very spiritual week. Very spiritual week, and um I thank God for that. You gotta always thank God for that.
