Now fuck that. I'm gonna tell you right now. I don't know why it takes some out of town folks to present me an award like that. Miami, the peoples, the powers of bee, the the somewhat they call gatekeepers. Um, I don't know, man. Miami haven't presented me with nothing. It's okay, don't get me wrong. I don't look for no type of recognition from anybody, especially for my city, because I know what I've done. And I need you to take this gym, right? If you know what you've done, you know what you've done in your lifetime, you know what you've done for some people, the community, the city, that's all that matters. Now, if anybody does recognize it, now if anybody does recognize it, that that that that that's uh that's a flex right there. And and and you know, those that do recognize it, you know, you you're a great individual, you're a great person, you're a great community, um, and so on.

My boy, you know what it is. Um big shout to Confidential Why Not, man. These guys, man, they threw an event this past Friday. This was absolutely dope. You know what I mean? Um, Confidential Why Not um brought to you by Steve Will and Mr. Why Not, my man DJ Classic, DJ Tony Heathcliff, that was out there um DJing the event. Now, what I liked about the event, of course, you know what I mean, the ambiance was absolutely great. But the fact that, you know, them boys, when they were spinning, they were just spinning, you know, either B-side records or you know, maybe stuff that you haven't heard of, or maybe stuff you haven't heard of in a long time. And that was that for me, that was phenomenal. That was great. So, you know, um it if I remember, man, um I when I went to the party, I didn't even hear no hip-hop. I heard a lot of other genres, but I didn't hear no hip-hop. So I I it was kind of refreshing, it's kind of dope. So, kudos to DJ Classic, uh Tony Heathcliff that shut it down with Mr. Why Not and Steve Will. Yeah, man, you already know. You already know. Ah man, so everybody's talking about the Drake album. Everybody's talking about the Drake album. Let me tell you something, man. First of all, none of y'all should be talking. You know why? This is why. The man dropped three albums by the first day. All of y'all was just critiquing, giving your opinion, and I promise you, I bet you, you didn't even go through all three albums. What are you critiquing? I'm a DJ, and this weekend I still haven't gone through all three albums. Like, stop it. Like, Drake is an artist, Drake is still a human being. He did nothing to you, nothing to them, nothing to the like if he had a little rap battle with Kendrick Lamar, so what? If he lost it, your thought, your opinion, so what? You know what makes it more effective about that man is the bounce back. Oh my god. Oh my god. Yo, which which song is my favorite? Um shut the fuck up. Janice, Janice, listen, you know why? For a couple of reasons. Our boy Illa wrote that song. Big shout to Illa. Illa wrote that song. And and when I found out Illa wrote that song, I felt proud because not only that, you know, he did such a great job at it, but I know him. I know him. Our crew, we know him, and we congratulate him, we salute him, we support him. And he didn't even know it was gonna be on there. He didn't even know. Like Drake did a good job of just hiding all the production, all the writers, and this and this and that till it was time to put out everything. He did a very great job. And then when it came out, Ella's life changed the next morning. Now, let me tell you something, man. Some of y'all have no clue why this man dropped three albums on y'all. Y'all lost in the sauce. Y'all have no clue. Uncle Phil was popping. China Red was good. Y'all have no clue. King, you already know. Y'all have no clue why this man Drake dropped three albums. Let me tell you something, man. You know Drake was um felt disrespected. He felt disrespected. Why he felt disrespected? Because of um, you know what he was going through with the record label and you know I mean, streaming, numbers, um hiding agendas. Yo, the man went through a lot. But the man had three albums left to do to get out his contract. Oh, now you did the math. Now you understand. Man, that was genius. That was absolute genius. You looking at your label like yo, y'all fucked me over like that. I watch this. Man dropped three albums to get out his contract, and got already what, like mad billions already waiting for him to to to to to to to be part of his next new project. Come on, man. Umg woke up like, where's Drake? Drake gone. Drake did his three albums that he owed you, and he gone. He is it's a rap. Done. Umg, huh? Come on, man. And he already has two billion dollar offer on the table for his next project. Listen, I think Drake is the most successful and probably the richest. Yeah, past Jay-Z, past Taylor Swift, past a lot of other people. Smart. Smart. You may not like all the songs on there. Me too. I may not, but there are some joints on there. That man also had to, he had to, but he did. He clapped back on all his haters, all of them, from LeBron to Khaled to Ross to Ace. Like, he went in. Listen, Drake, Aubrey, congratulations, my boy. Congratulations. Yo, congratulations. Dropped three albums just to quickly get out. You know, you know what that tells you? That man has joints for days. For days. He probably even put out some throwaway records that he didn't even care about. The Drake hate seems forced. Let me tell you something, man. I'm telling you. All you guys troll. Oh man, the meaning of trolling was at its all high this weekend when Drake dropped the album. Y'all trolling. Y'all trolling. I'm telling you, y'all did not peep the business move this man made that made him money. That got him out of his situation. That that spoke high of all his ops. All in one shot. Whew. Let me stop, man. Cause uh, you know, yo, listen, listen, go listen to that Janese record. Shut the fuck up. Go listen to that. Go listen to that. And there's a couple of other joints on there. Dope.
