Oh, you be in the background 2020 man Content as the king content is definitely king Especially right now since everybody's quarantined with this goddamn corona virus That's right. And so that's why we hit a day and we do a segment now I'm brilliant idiots called positively brilliant and what a fucking idiot and it's where we just rattle off what we think was Brilliant for the past week and what we think was fucking idiotic for the past week. I'm gonna start off, you know By simply we normally let y'all start off. What did you think was brilliant this week? I think what was brilliant this week? I see a lot of stores that are opening early. So the elderly come in and shop I think that's brilliant had it coming seven in the morning If they have a compromise immune system or you're little bit elderly you come in shopping You ain't got to deal with the rest of us wolves trying to get our supplies. By the way Why hasn't nobody made that a hustle yet? Why hasn't nobody you know been the person that goes and shops for elderly people with The elderly can call you and you go do their grocery shopping for them We're a little hustling motherfuckers that niggas ain't trying to do Like man elderly how much they paying? That's like you know the kids that come to shovel your snow when it snows real That's a hustle if you know you got all people in your neighborhood And they may need something from the store go get their groceries let them throw you a couple dollars And go do that grocery shopping for them Listen to this right now Yeah, go bust a move with that. That sounds like a good way. No, what did you see this week? Did you thought was a positively brilliant positively brilliant? Damn? Let me see. Uh, I Been kind of not seeing too much going on like I really been just watching television I haven't really really noticed like what was going on outside I mean one thing that I do see is that the corner stores in the hood is still open And they don't have lines the way Acme or Walmart has so it's like one of the things I think is brilliant is is going right back to where we started from like you know I'm saying it's like I don't live in the hood But I have I had to go to the hood to pick up a few things absolutely But you can only do that because you from the hood You ain't never been from the hood if you ain't from the ghetto if you never grew up in a rural area in South Carolina You you're not equipped with that kind of energy to even go into that jungle That's why I said in a moment like this the ghetto people going to the so-called ghetto people we will be the ones The one that's been making something out of nothing for so motherfucking long That got a taste for peanut butter and jelly, right? Not one of my kids is these these niggas they eat food like it's going out of style man I'm like damn. You just got the groceries. They don't went through a quarter of it. Like what's good? Yo, I got a cheat code for people. I'm gonna share this with y'all my people Right. I know Amazon is like back there with the food in all that Omaha steaks Omaha steaks two days They got fish shrimp lobster. We get a whole meal. You get on the website Yeah, oh my gosh It delivered you be there in two days, bro. You matters out when you go to But you know what, you know, I feel for the people though who don't like who might not be in the same position as us That can just do that. You know saying like we able to go on and grab whatever you want I'm really feeling for the people right now who like they live and check the check or live in, you know Based on their hours that they get in that they job, you know, I mean like that's that's the people I'm feeling for I mean, I mean, you know Trump supposed to be doing a trillion dollar bail out But not just the corporations he talking about putting some money in people's pockets as well But I'm gonna tell you something. I don't even think money matters at a time like this because we talking about health, right? Yeah, at the end of the day, it don't matter how much money you got in your pocket That's true. If you're if you're immune system is compromised and you catch this goddamn coronavirus It's a wrap and can't no amount of money save you. Well, you know, it's crazy, too I also want to I want people to stop thinking that like that we if you get the coronavirus that is enomorph is gonna Pop out your chest. I mean, that's I think is exactly like I mean There's people that it affects people have like respiratory problems and older people mostly But nobody's talking about the people who are actually fighting it back You know, I mean the people who actually have caught it and they're doing something about it not just do the money Yeah, it's not enough recovery stories. Yeah, it's just like your instant death. There's a narrative that they pain Yes, I'm not afraid. I wasn't taking a serious last week You know me Chris said something on the podcast last week that it hit me later on and I actually text Chris about it I said, oh, I see what you're saying because it's the fact that the health care system will be so motherfucking compromised The health care system would be so fucked up because there's only nine hundred thousand hospital beds in America 95,000 hospital beds in The ICU so everybody's rushing to the hospital because they got corona virus or whatever else What about the person who's having a heart attack? What about the person who the people this week who was supposed to have surgeries, but the surgeries You know like America's just not equipped to handle that shit It's like I think I read somewhere. It's like 6,400 hospitals in America America's not ready for this overflow of people that will be in the hospital because of the corona virus That's what Chris was trying to tell us last week Yeah, but it didn't dawn on me till later like what he was saying so it's not even that defective disease is so fatal It's the fact that that shit will cause problems for people who actually have real life-threatening Problems People that then take it OD series until you cancel the NBA When I see the NBA shit happen, I was like oh shit for a combination for me I was taking a little bit serious, but then there's the NBA then Tom Hanks. I was like see we got to stop that America's obsession with celebrity Yes, you tell me by the time Tom Hanks had it over a hundred thousand people in the world had it like like 45,000 people were dead and we don't take it serious tell goddamn the star big get it the greatest actor to me the greatest actor of all time That's why I ain't gonna lie. Yo nobody in the in the hood because it's not taking the series Yeah, I think the NBA was like stopping of money. It's when you see the money stop. It was yeah Something's going on in baseball follow suit and the NHL's and We overlooking this Ispian is just first take all day talking about when it's gonna come back I'm sitting there talking to y'all talking about we so obsessed with celebrity I didn't take it serious till I saw one person worried. Oh, and that's why that person is politically brilliant I was I saw Donald Trump talking about it and I was like, okay He said it's a hoax, but I said if he said it's a hoax is probably a lie. I saw all those people dying China I saw quarantine Italy get quarantine Tom Hanks got it But nothing hit me until I heard Cardi B get word When Cardi B got on Instagram and she was worried that's when I was worried and That little rant that she did turned into this motherfucking song that I got to put in positively brand because this shit Charted on Apple something that both of y'all can both appreciate because y'all in the motherfucking y'all are executives Let me hit let me hit a Cardi B coronavirus record Hey It's Cardi's voice Cardi can make anything a hit Anything a motherfucking hit man the problem I think that you will have with Cardi is when you try to structure her Yeah, you gotta get that that's that that's that natural organic energy You almost got to let her just go in the booth and freestyle and see what you get out of it I don't know about that, but But but not like it's just we live in crazy times, man Okay, we live a crazy time. It's like while this is so serious and we like we in the same breath that we having about how We've taken a series and all that here's a song made out of a clip of her talking about it And everybody's celebrating the fact that the shit is number 10, but people is dying behind the messaging of the song It's the truth. I mean the mess of virus this shit is real This shit is real this shit is real think about it. You just said people in the hood not taking it serious It's gonna be a mix tape after this from somebody like why they're taking it serious now cuz that message is clear It's to the point coronavirus shit is real Kevin Durant got it. Yeah, it's just That people actually fuck with now you just now what you need is a real hood nigga Tell you The past week my mind been playing tricks on me this whole last week So the most normal shit like right now is like allergy season I fucking sneeze I cough. I'm in a car by myself and I'm like my bike. I'm like Cuz I was working out the day before so naturally my body is hurting, but then I'm sitting here I cough and I'm like I've held in 10 cough since I've been ahead just cuz I don't want to scare you up Cough is like brandishing a gun nowadays Sneezes a gunshot Man duck with a sneeze come on. I was in the grocery store yesterday getting some water I'll take to my mom's and when I was like a couple is mean by seven eight white people. Yeah, and a white lady sneeze Everybody hit the fucking deck. No, they wanted to fight Like when I say I got allergies I got Zyrtex in the bag And I got reoccurring bronchitis You can't win with this and I'm sitting here It might be too it might be too late. You was talking about Cardi earlier. You said, um Would you say you said that Would you say you some of the other women that's on the on on her heels kinda? No, I was saying that uh, she got a you know, she do got to put some aside from everything that's going on She definitely wants you to put some new music out. Does she need to put music out? I mean listen on your three thousand said you can't afford to not record. So it's like that's a different time though It was a different time, but I don't think she needs to but man We we don't want our favorite artists to drop music anymore Like here's how I was two years ago Cardi B. Mm-hmm was my favorite person before she was my favorite artist Mm-hmm me. That's the brilliance of Cardi B. That's that's why I got her into positively brilliant second She was one of my she was one of my favorite people before she was my favorite artist. So I Years ago, I would say Cardi B is gonna be a star. I didn't know what she was gonna be a star at right I just knew she had that star quality. It just so happens. She decided to give us music But Cardi can do anything. She can give us an album. I mean, she can give us a movie We probably love it. She can give us a TV show. We probably love it She does Instagram ranch now just like she used to do back in the day Yeah, the only difference is now her voice so big they fucking shot Yo, I seen her do something of it. I forgot what it was. She posted she had a million views on Instagram and it was 15 minutes or 10 there was no it's like eight minutes. She was a million years insane She was a superstar before she was a superstar though is what I'm saying So so I don't even know if she needs music when she can do stuff like this She won't she about to talk with this shit. I mean Hey Who produced it? I Am Marquis Hey, don't fuck you fuck around the CDC is gonna license this shit PSA's all on TV all on the radio with this song playing When the next election you can walk out to this right Maybe if Donald Trump came on TV today because he's doing another Uh, press press conference today if he gets on anything that says look Cardi B said this shit is getting real and so you know shit is getting real President but that just goes to show you how impressionable like children aren't the only people that are like easily impressionable I gotta put Donald Trump in the what a fucking idiot category too though because a month ago You know, he was the one saying that this shit was a hoax. They got it all under control There's only one person from China and they got him contained now a month later He's telling us that the coronavirus this shit is real and that's a pandemic and he thought it was a pandemic from the beginning It's like this to me He's the idiot because he didn't have to put himself in that position you the president of the United States of America defer to the experts He fired on experts Back in 2016 you fired the global pandemic team, but my thing is just like I don't know record label shit like that Y'all are executives if I'm here and I got a question. I'm gonna just fall back and let y'all handle it Oh, yeah, but you're not a narcissist narcissist. Don't fall back at a point people or yeah You know what I'm saying? Yeah, and he's he's he's running His his office like a label like we just hired all his friends I Was in there actually doing shit and then he just hired a bunch of niggas that just like I mean fucking me for that Definitely yes, man So therefore nobody knows what the fuck they doing and now you end up in a situation like this and you got a back And listen, there's nothing wrong with changing your mind about no no no when you get more information in school But the information was there for you from December, but you know what you got to do Once you get new information and you you make a decorative statement like this shit is a hoax We're gonna get past this you first got to say I was wrong. I was wrong guys I was wrong this coronavirus this shit is mother fucker real That's it and you keep it moving from there and that's why I got to put them in the water fucking idiot shit I'm gonna tell you what I got to put in the water fucking idiot shit Meek I'm not not Meek Mill, but Steve Keely a Fox 29 in Philadelphia I don't know if y'all saw this tweet yesterday, but he tweeted out breaking Philly police office is Inscripted to stop making arrests for following for the following list of what are considered nonviolent crimes all narcotic offenses death from persons retail theft death from auto burglary vandalism all bench warrants stolen auto Economic crimes like like check fraud and prostitution trying to shit a grand theft water That's whatever you want to do posted me hamster. Damn. That's what I'm saying Put grand theft auto six about to start tonight in Philly. Yeah, that's all people saying oh shit the purge The problem I have with Steve Keely and I got to put him in the water fucking idiot segment Is because I have a problem with headline culture period because we all know niggas don't read My daddy would always say if you want to hide something from a black person In a motherfucking book. Yeah, we know he's to say nigga I don't want it's a different you want to hide something from a nigga, but it in a fucking book Now would they people see this headline and they just retweet retweet retweet retweet retweet retweet, right? They don't read the details the details of this situation is basically the police say it's gonna be a rain check We're gonna get your name. We're gonna get your motherfucking address and you're gonna have a warrant that we will cash in at a later fucking date Right, it's not the purge. You're not gonna be able to just to get away with selling dope Was my man in a wire he did that sure remember they sold up on a block They called it hamster damn hamster damn hamster damn It was like a full block area like where you can sell drugs Drugs and do whatever because they didn't want the statistics to go on the police precinct They wouldn't look like it was lower in crime exactly allowed it for a full block I mean I've done in the city. That's how I remain name. That shit is it. That shit is a setup anyway, man It's like honestly, even if you are a criminal and if you're a career criminal But you you shouldn't want to say all right, you know what they said it's cool. Like you should be smart Yeah, you shouldn't Fuck is going on for the career criminals. This is for the idiots the Philly the future felons in Philly The future felons in Philly Young ones who want to get into a life of crime? Let me test it out. But now they feel like they got that opportunity They got that shot and people were mad at me for even reposting that but I'm like, you can't be mad at me He's reposting with the white man Right when he put in his tweet and the reason I got to put Steve Kelly in the water fucking idiots because you can't just leave Out that fine detail now he did put out a second tweet that said the award the warrants will be cast in later But you gotta put that That's no way gonna be as viral as the first one see the second. That's what we saw was that nobody sees when it was this All they show was that and in positively brilliant. I got to say the student who um Who who got expelled was suspended for selling squirts of hand sanitizer I respect you What did I teach you yeah for a listen man, like I'm not knocking no kids I'm trying to figure out. What did he do wrong? Like what is the what is the the jurisdiction at the school to rule at the school that he broke Yeah, amen sticky fingers No shit, they gonna get it from somebody I rather be me Drugs No, no, no listen now You know what I did do one time like when I was in like in the eighth grade I stole like two boxes of the other of the fundraiser candy I did sell them ships. I definitely so long. It was $60 a box. That was a hundred dollars profit. That's what I'm saying That's what I used to sell candy. Yeah, I never did because you wonder why like see kids now And we we from the generation of niggas just make it funny like you get celebrated for selling drugs But if you were selling candy niggas So We from the sell crack our review is selling crack then that was you know me like it's fucked up But that's just how it was going. I remember middle school. This dude used to come His name was Oran rest in peace to Oran and he used to bring 40 ounces the school Now you think about it now That's the most you know best way to spread coronavirus, but he used to charge like a dollar And you would be able to take a sip of the 40. Oh, wow I sound like a person selling dippers, man But we would all be on the playground passing that shit around and it'd be like a dollar dollar dollar dollar He then made $20. That's what I'm saying over to 40s. That's crazy made $20 and spread First time my first time me and my man started selling weed we used to put Duchess on the on the on the on the nickel bags. We used to sell it We used to give you a Dutch for free smart. That's dope Yeah, because we just had a line on how to get the Dutch masters like you know me So you would be the best at a time like this because if you stuck in the house for corona virus and you like yo Nick is not stopping that Well, guess what I would like to go on record to say that me and Hovey in a note and not involved in any type of activity ever and that's right. I'm just speaking all off of here's it and Documentaries I've watched I don't know nothing about selling drugs But I said it's like right now would be the perfect time to kick your game up. Yeah They can't leave the crib Also want to take this time and positively brilliant to salute the good brother Wayno and salute the good brother academics For being two positively brilliant Individuals because I don't think that we celebrate the success of everyday struggle enough. Thank you You know a lot of people thought everyday struggle was gonna fall off after Joseph left But I think that what what people what people didn't take into consideration Was the fan base that academics had actually was act was here so I could tell because I called academics other than that Now I told them this because you know, I'm I'm a celebrator. You know, I'm sorry I like to celebrate like I like to give I don't like to talk behind people back You know, you always talk about people back when it's some some foul shit to say Yeah So when people are talking good when we're having positive conversations about people I want to I want to say that to I actually called them to tell them that but it's like yo I had a fan base before he got on every dish, bro Yeah, you know, he had built something great because of social media both of y'all working labels Y'all know what what act does on social media labels corporations kill for that And then him being Him being actually the first hip-hop blog on Instagram would act act followed with baller alert and shade room started doing Started doing it with hip-hop like teams he didn't do that. Well, where else started to do it a little bit Follow his lead. Yeah, everybody's following him now. That type of shit. So I appreciate that I think when people, you know, when Joe left they was like, okay, you know, everything's gonna be a wrap Y'all been on for what? I've been on it for two years now They got to pay you to shut up So the show is almost three years old because Joe was on it for like six seven much So, you know, then I think star came for a little bit Yeah, and then wano and I think the parent of wano and act is a great parent just because you know I think sometimes Joe but an overpowered act in the conversation and probably didn't respect him Enough to actually listen to some of the stuff that was coming out of his mouth wano Respects act but wano respects everybody. So he respects people enough to listen, right? You know what I'm saying and and wano has a great POV of things and he's got his own experiences in the industry and shit So it makes for a great balance, but I just don't think that, you know, we celebrate a everyday struggle as a platform enough She's standing when people roll out the album that's part of their plan And y'all know me way before a everyday struggle even existed I was just trying to figure out what my next thing was gonna be, you know The management shit worked for me and all that but it's like for me this shit kind of fell into my lap You know, I mean, this is nothing that I worked like work to really get and I don't say that to minimize it I know it's a lot of people that fucking went to Uh, what's the name went to school for communications and all of that and I even seen like a lot of people from back in the day That do interviews and all that when I first got on there saying all types of shit about me like who is this nigga What does this nigga do? Who does he know what what is he done? It's like I get it But at the same time it's like I felt like with everyday struggle I was thrown into the ocean and I had to swim the shore as far as learning You know, I mean, I've always been open as to learning like I asked charlamagne one day like I text them Like yo, bro. I'm trying to learn how to he's like nigga. You're doing it. Like just keep Going, you know, I mean, um, I don't really trip off people not celebrating it like that. You know what I'm saying because Uh, I love what I'm doing like that shit is the most fun part of my day Even when academics is like, I think a lot of people they talk shit about academics because he don't post their shit Like that that's what it really boils down to and if they really sat down and met the nigga They didn't know how intelligent he is very smart dude. Yeah, act is one of the most, um interesting Stories I've seen in hip-hop media You know, since I've been doing it only because like there was a point where nobody took him serious Right, and then there was the point where everybody hated him And now it's to the point where They need him Can't get away from Like you need him, you know, and and and he's still Act at the end of the day. I don't even think act has quite figured out what to do What I got Yo, nah, he's now. Listen, let me tell you one thing, bro Like he has he's had tons of great ideas But I'd be telling him just more shit about him just being more present because his I understand it like he don't give a fuck about Being social with none of these people because he built his self Online so it's like he don't have to leave the house and he could still make bread You know, I mean and he's doing very good. So it's like I just be telling him like, yo, bro if you if you met A quarter of the people that really fuck with you it'll take you to another level and he understands that I'm saying like he understands that he's he's making a lot of new content a lot of new different ideas Like I said, I learned from him every day and vice versa Like we trade off one shit as far as like giving each other information The funny is if you really know Wayno and you watch the show you watch how he check them subtly Like if you know Wayno and you watch JD kids said that I'd be billy d. Williams in this shit But but you know what the thing is is this is like, all right Even when Joe left for myself I thought it wasn't gonna last, you know too long because I didn't know what the next phase is going to be But my thing is this man, like I'm not I'm not trying to be Yelling at a nigga to argue with you. I ain't gotta yell at you to argue with you You know I'm saying so so my biggest thing with your button Whatever, but my I like when Joe used to yell at him Because he was passionate about what he was saying a lot of times. He was right Yeah, he was right about so but I'm just saying for for myself, bro Like for me is like, I'm not we do that shit mad early in the morning Like we doing that They just don't understand, bro Bro, I'm not doing that shit seven eight thirty in the morning getting out of and for me That's just not who I am as a person. Even even if I if I have altercation I'm not going I'm not going to be trying to like It's even we doing something or not. So for me I look that with academics like how I deal with academics. I just talk to him I mean, I talked to him and we have our little spats here and there, but I talked to him. Yeah messaging messaging is very important, right? I think um Learning how to communicate knowing how to communicate is very important You know, and I think people got different different ways of communicating like I I didn't always communicate You know the way that I do now the back of the day. I didn't communicate the same way And and and what I realized now is the way I communicate now It it resonates more Right because at the end of the day if you're actually saying something you don't want that message to be missed And sometimes the message you'll be missed if you like oh shit Look at him. Yo, he's sunning duty checking duty yelling the dude You get caught up in that instead of what the person is actually saying This this generation doesn't deal with nuance. Well, bro, we don't we don't dig deep enough All we see is the surface of something You know, I've been confused about y'all man, like the certain words that people use checking Pressing word word. Sonnet. I don't know where everybody else come from. I just know that when a nigga press you it means something totally different Or when a nigga check you with me something totally different So it's like I don't even be looking at it in that sense and then like people that fans they they view it a certain way It's like like when I had this shit with soldier boy, you know, I mean like Everybody was like oh why why didn't you why didn't you get up and fight them? It's like fans at my job That's the thing niggas want niggas want to gas you to do something stupid to call you stupid So if I would have got up and me and soldier boy would have had a physical altercation No matter who gets the best of who Yeah, I get to go viral and all of that But then it you know what it becomes Complex comes to me and say, yo, you know, we can't do this no more Then they go, where do I get the realest nigga wars? Like niggas, that's what I'm saying people would gas you up to do something stupid to call you stupid If you got the best of soldier boy, they don't be like Uh, we ain't got a soldier boy But I'm just saying bro, I made it swing on Gucci. Yo, I made it past 30 I made it past 30 years old without a felony. That shit is not easy You think I'm a I'm a trick myself out of my situation with that I don't know if people think like that when it comes to what we're doing People really think that What they say matters or what they dictate like somebody a tweet or Yeah, they'd be like, yo, that's why I don't understand the whole came for you Like what people say, oh, uh They they they uh, like what do they call it on twitter when everybody's not clap backs They say some shit like Like came for you but something like it. Oh, don't come for me if I ain't sin for you Like all right, I could say something about niggi Or on the show and then all the Barb's is in my mentions and they be like, oh the Barb's on your ass. What do that mean? Like what do that even mean like Bro, I don't know if y'all niggas live That's I could turn it off and still live the same life. I'm living. I don't know if people live with that social media shit where Like that's they everything I just don't get that shit is their gateway into A reality that they don't have so it's like I'm really living this shit.

Let's get back to the show Now but the communication is important. Um, that's why uh my my deep dive today. I want the deep dive to be Uh, j. Electronica's album a written testimony, right? Hit the drop goes deep Messaging is important, right because we was all I'm sure we all saw uh, joe budden yesterday and j. Electronica going back and forth on twitter And um, I listened to what joe budden had to say about j. Electronica's album And he's not wrong at all But the mess is messaging is not what you said. It's how you said your word is born I'm not responsible for how you perceive my information. I dole out though Because I can say something and two people could perceive it two different ways Yeah, but especially somebody who's insecure or somebody I could be talking to you who's securing itself I could be talking to somebody who's insecure and I could say the same exact thing the same exact way You might take it the way you take it. I'm not responsible for how you perceive what i'm saying Should artists be that sensitive at people's opinions about their music? No, I mean once you create it and put it out Yeah, it's for the public to say nobody's gonna love your shit all the time. Now j. Elect's baby mother Queen eric abadu said some real shit one time. I'm an artist and I'm sensitive about my shit But why do we allow certain people's opinions to bother us? Is it because of the platforms? It's the platforms because you know, like, I mean Let's keep it a hundred man You know when when you got a certain type of platform and I just say like joe like joe You know how he is with music I think the good part about joe is that He's very critical about music because he cares about music But the way he delivers it sometimes it do make people feel away and you can't like you You right I could say something you and you and both y'all could feel away But if I say it with a certain type of aggression or I say it with certain type of Verbiers or I said in certain type of ways You you naturally might feel away about it if I if I tweet out I never got absolutely moped around on my own project at me not rory First of all, I hate when niggas say add them Like that's what is that? Adding them is nothing like actually Say it to my face is what I guess add is to say it to my face of social media But he said I never got absolutely moped around on my own project and Then joe said I took you off yours And it's a whole mix tape now It's disrespectful To say I took you off. I just wanted what's the point in doing it? That's all I'm saying you can give your opinion about the album and say the exact same things because When I first heard the album we talked about it in the group chat. Yeah, I got on breakfast club the next day. I say, yo Jay watched Jay electronica, right? But when I go back and listen to it. I don't think it's a washing It's not a mop up Okay, it's a reason For this right jay electronica the dope rapper. Yes, we know that he's a great rapper I love his messaging, you know, he speaks my language, you know, I walk around with the honorable elijah mohammed piece on All the time. So I'm big on the lessons. I'm big on the noi So his his music hits hits me a little bit different But let's be clear when we talking about Jay electronica getting mopped up on his project He's on his project with the greatest rapper of all time It's like it's like being on the court with the greatest basketball player of all time Joe if jordan might score 30 but that don't mean scottie didn't score 25 Right now if you got a shoot with michael jordan, I'm pretty sure he can out shoot most people who play basketball every day If you're just talking free throws a second. So it's like Yeah, he's on a he's on a the album with the greatest nigga ever. Absolutely. You know what I mean? So it's like we But I don't know man I think people will want it more from jay electronica because it was a 10-year hiatus Right. So for him to come back with the mixtape and the first voice you hear is hove right? It's a it's a honorable A lot is the faricone. It's a little faricone. Then the next voice you hear is hove But so I can understand some people being a little like but keep in mind All this even all this journalist stuff that joe doing now You gotta remember he was a rapper for longer and now he's getting like joe used to give his opinions on twitter all the time Absolutely. That's how he built a big fan base through social media But now his opinion is his voice So a lot of things that he probably Didn't get a chance to say or I mean we didn't get a chance to hear him say before He can just freely say now. I'm not he's being critical as a rapper more than a journalist And if you listen, he's still big them up. He say i'm separating this nobody hears that that goes back to my original He said yo, i'm still super happy for him putting out a joint. Nobody hears that I'm still uh celebrating the fact that he finally got one out. Congrats and all that but I want all that. You know what i'm saying? That gets lost hold. That gets lost and yelling and the name calling and by the way I'm not that's that's what joe joe does. My only issue is keep that same energy When you sit in face to face with jay electronica. Don't don't backtrack, you know, I want to see them veins popping out I want you to take the shirt off. I want the wife beat her on I want you yelling and screaming at joe I mean at j telling j the same way you feel about his project You know when he's when he's around you, but but forget joe. I want to talk about this album, right a written testimony It what hove said is absolutely right If your criticism is after 10 years you wanted more jail electronica. I can understand why you're upset So 39 minute project. I think he wraps for like 13 14 minutes out of the whole 39 minute project The rest is hove and instrumentals playing and you know skits. I can understand that but when you say He got washed on this project. That's not fair He's barring people up on this shit, bro But when you do it out when you do a song album with somebody you open yourself up to that comparison Yeah, you put yourself in a position. Yeah, but my only problem with j electronica is this bro I accept you how I met you You you you started off with the just blazing. That's what made everybody fucking Being exhibit c and and in a delmo skin and all all the like hidden songs we was trying to find this to stand the third There's no just blaze, right? Which is wack which which which I don't like but but not only that As much as I love jz. I didn't want to hear jz A jz j electronica album. I wanted to hear j electronica Hey, that's what I really now. I want to jz up Yeah, I'm not gonna ever say I don't want to hear j I mean come on, bro. I mean I love hearing from hope because hope always lets us know what he's at in his life At that at the moment, you know what I mean? Like that's cool. But come on, bro. I wanted to hear jailer. It's been 10 years I've been was like, all right. We never get in it. Like, you know, I mean I've been like detox never came Like that shit is out of our minds now. I mean, I've never rated j electronica like that though exhibit c it was a special time He used to be in new york. Like we was outside. Yeah. Oh a09 he was 172 He used to be at dameship. He was everywhere. So we got the really interface with him Angela used to manage him. Yeah, so it was like we had a different type of expectation because it's like We've been we championed him. I like the exhibit c but I never looked I never Jay was never one of the guys. I'm like, yo, he's one of the greatest rappers of all time I never I never saw that I just once again. I liked him because of his subject matter I loved him because he was like Farrakhan with a microphone like the same messages that the Minister Louis Farrakhan was trying to convey through speeches Jay was actually doing in his music Right. And I mean, I he never had this he never had an opportunity to be the greatest of all time And then because he didn't put out a body of work But there was point a point in time where we did look at him as a nigga That's like, all right He's gonna fix fix these little bit of glitches in the matrix the niggas an anomaly like he he comes from New Orleans He wraps like that. You never see him He's like an alien like you never hear It's so much shit about it that made him interesting. That's what we wanted to hear That's what I said in the group chat. I said after 10 years of being gone You didn't give us none of that what happened in those 10 years I learned more I learned more to him in exhibit c then I learned on his whole album I don't think that's his purpose though. I think his purpose is to give us these teachings I really do and I I I agree with you I think the mystery around him has always been bigger than his music You know, but I think that his purpose is to give us These lessons first of all, if you've never read message to the black man by the about an honorable elijah mohammed Do that read that twice It didn't go listen to a written testimony. Okay, because there's just certain things that he's talking about That's gonna hit different But the thing is and I get that but that's not everybody's like that's not everybody's uh mission to to to be able to read That niggas just want music sometimes. That's that's gonna be five percent of people that do that Yeah 85 percent That goes back to what I said about messaging because like He might be talking over people's heads because he's speaking about things that people don't know about you're right And that's and I'm not like the thing is is that I I even hit you by that. I'm happy with the album But we all get to be selfish as fans. Yeah, you know, I mean I get I get to be selfish as a fan I want what I want I get to be yeah Like I get to be able to say like it's not like we got video games And we could trade niggas and do this that we want to do and play fantasy rap I want to hear jay electronica for 10 songs by itself and one j feature or two I don't want to hear them going back and forth and like yeah, I love to hear j but it's like jz But at the same time it's like Bro, I was so 10 years We got to hear him with hold with jz and then like it's a cheat code I don't know bro. It's a cheat code. Like you said in the album He was like basically he said like why i'm going hard doing these things just so you could dissect me and break it down Yeah, that's what art is do that's what art is if not keep that shit in your headphones You put this shit out to be discussed to be praised to be Sean man, and I learned this by just by doing media, bro. You can't stop nobody from saying nothing But what he was saying is true. It's art, right? It's art So when not when you are when you're a public figure, but definitely when it's art when you put something out to the world Like jalex said on the album. He said, you know, I'm trying to squeeze out bars just for y'all to pick me apart Yes, nigga. Yes black man. You know that They've been doing it the whole for years. They've been doing it to the the the the I'm I can't even nod anybody any great lyricist Kendrick. This is what we do And I still feel like it's special. I still feel like it's a special moment, but it's a good vibe It's a moment, but at the same time. I'm just like can we talk about what we like about the album? Absolutely because that's the problem. I think everybody. Yeah, but that's the era we live in though, right? Yeah, it is we automatically talk about what we don't like So what we do like gets lost I think it's dope just because he's giving out them teachings, man And it's like, you know, he's really barred up. I was looking at this bar today And and chance to wrap it put out a great tweet, which is absolutely true. This is what rap genius was made for Yeah, shut the rock mark. Let's shut the rock mark man family. This is what rap genius Is made for you can go on rap genius and see what the fuck he's talking about when he said like all praises do to Allah Subhanahu wata Allah, whatever it was that means glory to glory be to Allah glory be to him the most high You know what I'm saying? Then he says I put on for my nation like I'm king T'Challa crushing the Oyebo You know what the Oyebo is White people that try to bring what Allah trouble So it's like when you know these things when you know what some of this stuff means It's a little bit different. It's a little bit different. I love Ezekiel's will I love Ezekiel's will too. He got busy on that. He got busy on that I love the fact that he's the first person to get jay on the alchemist beat You know, like that's that's that's a story. Oh my god. Like alchemist I mean like alchemist just for so I feel like alchemist don't get the credit He deserves a fucking producer at all one of the greatest to ever do it and he's never worked with jay You know and that was because you know my deep affiliation. I feel like hopefully we get more of that I want to hit jay on the derringer beat too, but I would be insane Never in the story was though. What was the bars on never in the story? Is that the one where he's like, um Damn, I can't remember what never in the story was Never in this story. It's hard. Oh, let me pull up the With drink. No, that's not the one Let me pull up some bars from never in this story. Oh, but it's a lot of good shit on the last song When it was crazy the shit that they recorded the night Kobe died Yeah, in this story. Oh, yeah. Have you ever heard the tale of the noblest? Oh, yeah, yeah when he was like his uptown smile was gold like a Frankie Beverly day His favorite song from Prince was not razz variable ray. That was a dope tune. That's that's actually one of the um One of the one of the better verses electronic a hat on this shit, but jay still killed him Yeah, jay came with the it's a miracle But he got jay on the joint when he'd be like, I'm trying to catch your body that that you know I'm trying to catch your body. Which one was that? I think that's his he kills will Oh, he bodies equals. Well, yeah, he'd be like he like whatever the niggas want to do I'm into like all that shit he got jay on that But it's hard to have a better verse than jay like it's not many people that can say that never in the story Maybe i'm a miracle two or three in their life. Yeah when imperial features. I'm a page turn a sage burn a santeria It's this last part where he goes Neither two can be used to fix our defects p.s. We born perfect. Fuck all the bs. Everybody want to be us for real We just got to see us inshallah God damn like you can't do that through jail electronica And compare him even and I get it. That's what we do That's the same when we compare everybody if kindred can drake come out with albums in the same year We comparing them to if cardi and nicky the two hot female rappers we compare them to But it's very like yo jay-z. He's a different animal man comparison is a thief of joy But you open yourself up for comparison when you do an album with It's a reason why the word exists It's a reason why the word exists You know jail electronica get credit though because he produced five songs on the album. Yes, absolutely And and so he says it's home. Yeah, he inspired jay-z to want to rap Yeah And one thing I really like about j rapping on jz rapping on this is he's rapping ways We've never heard him before like when he said lyrically i'd be talib quali like I feel like that's what he's talking about That's what he had right now. Yeah, he's finally rapping the way he always wanted to rap When the same shit with the talib quali alone and he said truthfully I want to run like common sense. I'm a five mile rapping like i'm saying like that He's finally rapping the way he wants to rap right that's dope Yeah, I think that's dope and and that's what I'm saying. I'm not I'm not mad at the album at all, but I do like yeah nigga, you Exhibit c is a moment like that shit is a moment in hip hop That's the benchmark that we judging him by and it was none of that type of rapping on and I don't believe that though That's what everybody I'm gonna tell you why it's not because the production That's all it is But wait, that's all it is the teachers is in there right the teachers is in there and he ain't got that just blades beat He ain't got the beat That's the only but that goes into the the record like that goes into making a record That is just a little bit I won't even say disappointing because I don't know where we had like I also heard that jail electronic is the nigga that he could be sitting in his room and he fucking teleports and disappears You don't see him for a year So it's like I can't imagine what just blaze has tried to go through trying to get this nigga to Just blaze got a whole jail electronic album. That's a fact Of course, he got whole jay-z albums just blaze got a whole jail electronic album That for whatever reason never came out. I heard that there's a record called Malcolm soap box that is absolutely phenomenal And you know, I think that I do I feel bad that just blazes in on this project because just blazes given jay-z Some of his greatest records and he definitely gave Jay electronica some of his greatest records So I think it's a story behind why just blazes and on it and the fact You got a whole jail electronic a project like there's joints that you got That are phenomenal from Jay electronica. So why didn't those make the cut? I'm thinking that this isn't this why I don't want to go too hard on Jay electronica because I don't think it's warranted I think Jay electronica showed up on this project. Everybody acting like this isn't the same Jay electronica We used to hear back in the day. It's the same guy the only difference between executive mind is just blaze. That's it Yeah, my it's the production. That's hard. I'm about to say what just blaze is a big that's hard Yo, because I mean and realistically it's only eight songs because shiny suit theory was out and there's one I mean one track that's over The intro has all production. It's really eight songs. Was it an eternal? Was an eternal act one? What remember that Jay electronica project eternal eternal sunshine? Yeah That's a project that was like what four songs. No, he had a fucking He had a drink that was like, I don't know because people was making it. It was this is what I'm saying Then it was a puzzle So this was putting together anything they could find and make it into the tapes because I got a act one I had an act one at the time when it was on black the the fucking um The touchscreen blackberry when we was all on bdm That was like 20 something tracks of jay electronica rapping for a minute or you know, how you say that word did did uh, Did trepla mean not good You let it not get him started I said I don't know how to say the word but it's it's something that the trepla mean assumption like that I don't know. It's a um, hold on. Let me look it up real quick. The trap to me dichotomy. No, no, no, no It's a it's a word. I can't I don't know how to uh, pronounce this word. What is it? What is it pertaining to it's a song yo that he had Pig a man with the it pigs with the heads of men spit acid. You remember that shit I remember my third eye cloak and A midget in the a minute a midget in the bonnet like a baby in the bass With this I don't know how to say that shit Nigga, you know, I don't know how I say you actually look like the shit that you read at the doctor's office when they try Yeah, but it's a eyesight test. It's like a it's like a um a diagnosis of some shit But that's what I'm saying the nigga. He had so many it's the production like this on on uh Damn, I can't remember what song that was when he just be like he's like, uh, I think it's the blinding The blinding is dope with hip boy in swiss when he's like, um, you know the kingdom comes sir The wheel inside we said, you know the kingdom comes sir the wheel inside the wheel a half a mile in circumference It's the return of the moddy the return of the aches. Yeah, he said the return It says it's just like two poxy coats bitten flimmy paparazzi. That's a those a big bar He's born up boy at the same time like you said A lot of this gonna go over people's heads just by the context and everybody ain't got knowledge of self Everybody don't have to like think about reasonable doubt, bro. Like You still could catch lines unreasonable doubt like reasonable doubt came out when I was like 11 12 years old It's shit that jay was saying I'm like, oh, shit I just caught a line from 444 This one when they they said uh, we was talking about it when they were like the lauren taylor line when he said Tata jumped Lauren taylor 56 when he jumped over to play on the field Somebody sent us the picture I'm like, oh The Kobe jiggerman is diesel when I lift it Picking up That's why I say you should go read a message to the black man because it's Like when he talks about the wheel inside the wheel a half a mile is the conference That's the measurement of the wheel inside the wheel and he says the return of the moddy, you know moddy is the With the leaders with some leaders of islam who would have played to restore peace and rid the world of evil And then he says the return of the aches. That's his brother. Yeah return to the lost and found travels to bass You know, so let me ask you a question. Do you think he's coming with another project or it's gonna be another 10 If y'all don't scare him away, who y'all if y'all don't fucking scare him away I'm telling you you might scare you might scare the brother away. Like I want I want I want jay elected to know that I think that he he he he barred up on this project But you know, yes, you did do yourself first of all, it's only one wax on in the whole album Flux capacity that shit is garbage. I don't know the beat Yeah, law the good brother law guru the good brother gurus. I don't know how y'all let that out the studio That shit is so offbeat. Yeah, it is super off. Like I'm like, what the fuck like it like it sounds It's that like that should maybe they would take it. Maybe they would take in the easiest approach Like there was like, yo, it's distorted so that you can really grasp it in No, that wasn't it. That's it then and I never thought I would ever find myself skipping a track That has jay z and j electronic. I scripted. I skipped that record every time That shit don't sound good in the car. That shit don't sound good in the headphones when you're working out That shit ain't it, bro I would like then I would like jay electronic to know if he definitely sees is that I'm thankful For him giving us. Yes, because it's you know, the the way things is going man And like we just so affected by so many like Tragedies that happen like by all of these young artists or even older artists that lose their lives tragedy I'm happy that he has given a contribution And you're gonna remember this album this album came out during the global pandemic This album came out at the height of the coronavirus. You know what I'm saying? And I think for me Here we go. As soon as I start talking about corona, I'm about to start coughing Here we go This one I was about to say something crazy because I was about to say I think this album could be to kill for the coronavirus And corona say, oh, oh, oh, you hold up now. All right, relax But yes, man, I just think it's a dope ass project and and and What would y'all have done different if y'all were a and r's on it? Have just been That's it. No, it's nothing. It's nothing really out. Honestly, man, I'm not gonna lie like yeah I love the jz shit, but I wanted like I said being a fan Because I'm an and on executive and all that I still got to take myself out of that and bring myself into what I love No matter how much Shit, I'm doing business wise. I don't forget how it felt when I used to open up an album Read the credits listen to it for the first time call my friends and tell them to come over Yeah, we got ahead of shit that was our social media or getting on your bike and going to a man crib and hearing it So it's like for me. I have my shit that I want personally, but I would have kept it the same If I could have did a j electronic album I just would have them down on a lot of the jz shit I would have did this album after j electronic because I'ma be honest with you When oh after hearing jz on this album the only feature I would not want j on is that whack-ass flux capacitor everything else Jay's versus everything but I'm just saying it's like, you know those verses were necessary Some records for his project Let's hold his back for hold brother. Yeah, but I would still did the album But I would have did it after I did a j electronic album the way I want to do a j electronic executive blues But just blaze. Yeah, exactly because to me This is an extension of 444 right because like 444 came at a very pivotal time in my life Because it came out on my it came out the day after my birthday. I think I turned 39 that year And like, you know, we was on the roof and now we just celebrating life It was me and Didis and Meryl and wax we just having a good time like a bunch of my partners Were you there with him? I wasn't I wasn't there. I wasn't there. We're going to dress that after this All right. We'll talk about that later. We'll talk about that a couple years ago. I don't remember It was cool a couple years ago Yeah, we done cool stuff by the time now It wasn't no it wasn't like a playing thing He's dancing It wasn't like a playing thing Not so good And so we was on this smoking cigar then you he's about to fly out the next day and as I'm riding Oh fly out the next day He was the way hold was that hold was on some like real Just black power and bracing fatherhood and bracing You know being a husband and you know, just being a black man in this country and Bossing up on some ownership shit, which he's always been on but It was a soundtrack for me at that moment still remains a soundtrack for me now At this moment in my life when when when the biggest thing I want to do is just continue to grow spiritually You know I'm saying like practice mindfulness in a real way That's why I'm so big on the mental health thing But it's just like you know when I'm trying to be as mentally healthy as possible and spiritually healthy as possible I needed this soundtrack right now. You know I'm saying like this shit make you sharpen up on your lessons You know it make you like like yo, I ain't read message to the black man in a minute Let me go back and go back and read message to the black man, you know I mean like I walk around this honorable Elijah Muhammad piece On for a reason like like like Jay electronica set on the album He was like yo the teachings of the honorable Elijah Muhammad my backbone So yes, I agree that yo he might have went overheads with it But isn't that what good rap is supposed to do? He came to his base. That's what he did Like like like uh, uh, we're running for president Niggas just want to hit just blaze beats. That's all The shit not trash is not wack. I don't feel like like Jay is 50 steps ahead of him And even if people feel like he is that's fucking Jay Z You know what I mean? Like about 30 He might be 50 But he 50 steps ahead of everybody that's what I'm saying. It's everybody. Come on. It's just have a fucking three-point shoot I would jump with Steph Curry The shit makes me I wonder who else inspires hold. That's what I was thinking, right? Like who else inspires hold To snap like that, you know, I'm saying because to me when you are artists like hold who don't got nothing to prove anymore Yeah, you got your only rapper for inspiration at this point Like we know why I was free inspired him It was the biggie joint. Yeah, because we know biggie inspires hold It was the biggie sample and the subject matter Right. So clearly this J. Ben guy body. I think I think the Griselda guys. Yeah, I was gonna see that too I think that well just me from working at Rockefeller and that was a long time ago But seeing with jays inspired by he's inspired by people he sees himself in I think that's why like, you know With benny the butcher the reason why he might fuck with benny the butcher so much Might not so much be just the music is his story You know, I mean the last one was locked up with emory too. He was locked up with emory But it's like even west side gun like when when people I would love for the nigga besides Music to do a documentary on his life because the niggas life is crazy. Crazy. What's that gun? His life is crazy, bro. I'm talking about pride to him make it. He's another person that's not supposed to be here Yeah, you know I'm saying so it's like I think that that's what jay jays inspired by Like the shit that he seen people get through that he got through is like, oh, shit My god, that jaysie griselda feature is gonna be phenomenal. Oh, yeah, it's gonna be nuts Yeah, I think he's I think he's just asked is he inspired by drake or kindrick I think he's I think kindrick definitely probably probably for the art. I think drake for competition Like yeah, I think we're saying he's the best and I want to show him like that's ego though We all man. We all got ego and I'm talking about with the drake and whole thing That's ego though because it's like drake isn't drake's not on hove's level Oh, I mean rapping wise he's stature wise not even but he's getting there Yeah, he's getting there He's the best rapper for the last drink to Lebron of his era. Jay Z is the Jordan of his era Jordan is the greatest of all time Lebron is his son. Wait a minute Because we're drake not drink No, yes. Yes. No. Yes. Yes. He is. He played a little wane is Kobe Little wane is Kobe Little wane is Kobe You wouldn't have none of these rappers right now The thing about drink is so who is Kanye because I would think Kanye is Him I don't compare the nigga to nobody basketball wise He's the wane more like Allen Overson. No, no Allen Overson never got a ring wane got ringed. Yeah, wane do got a ring But the reason I say wane is Allen Overson is because Allen Overson was the father to his style and he created a bunch of little Allen Overson Everybody wanted to be Allen Overson. He was he was he was a rebel Right. Lil wane was absolutely a rebel Allen I don't think Allen was supposed to get to the heights that he was supposed to get to it wasn't because He wasn't but he's six feet six feet tall. I'm gonna tell you why I was supposed to be that guy I got him right now. I'm gonna tell you why wane is Kobe I I don't know everything you just said he still was the number one pick in the draft He still was projected to be great great Kobe Bryant was the 13th the 14th pick in the draft and then he was traded for fucking vladi Bro, wane was projected to be number one Juvenile was the star you crazy Birdman told y'all By the year 2000 little wane going to head his game He said bg Lil wane was not better than bg at all. Birdman saw the vision y'all bucket Birdman you finished your union. He was not better than bg And and I don't think it's when I compare at all high boys. It was Juvenile bg Then wane and took maybe you're you're absolutely right But birdman told y'all He said He said it on bling bling It was the number one fucking pick in the draft But I think like this nigga was picked before everybody who ended up having better careers than him A lot of people have better careers I mean, listen, you can you can look at it like this when when Juvenile But I first heard wane on a bg album way back in the day the baby gang says they But by the time that they started like really popping Juvenile then were kind of in the league Wayne was the kid that was still in high school that they would let play pick-up games with By the time he got eligible for college birdman said By the year 2000 Lil wane going to head his game up birdman was telling everybody wane was going to be that nigga That's what he did and it still didn't happen then. Let's not let Kobe immediately either though Exactly it didn't it took time. So wait, yo, but that's why I say wane is opposite No, let's know wane was respected wane was respected as an artist like people People like that. He means no one saw wane becoming wane. No one's so good Nobody in it nobody in it right my shaman you from the south nobody in a right mind Thought that little wane was going to be getting compared to the top lyricists in the game at one point in time I could tell you I could tell you when I could tell you when that shifted you like 12 stop it I could tell you when it shifted when it shifted around 2001 2002 and he started doing the dedication dedication 2002 Dedication two is 2007 Let's look this up guys. You mean DJ drama just arguing about this shit. Let's look this up Squat up. No, you forget squad squad got a gutter in them that happened in 2004. Well, it was definitely mixed It's degrees was 2005 dedication to change dedication to change everything for like south niggas was insane Nicky's and jack and wane when wane didn't like even call the one niggas was jacking 05 was the first dedication So what was the joints that he was putting out because around oh Squad up he wasn't doing no, he wasn't rapping like that. Yes. It was because there was this one There was this one project. I forgot what it was where manny fresh goes Like little wane comes in and he he just wraps during the interlude and he's body in that shit And then manny comes in and goes wane get the fuck out of here with all that murder murder kill kill Shit, I'm trying to be happy and do nice shit, but at that point you was like damn But that's not I'm saying this is for mainstream niggas was not paying that no more niggas started paying mine paying wane mine Carter Carter won as I okay the nigga caught it too. Definitely Nobody dedicated to came up before Carter. Yeah Carter. I mean the dedication to change everything. Come on, bro I said I said the DJ drama. I say oh, bro. That's the great that to me That's my favorite one of my favorite mix tapes all time. Okay. Well, let's let me say this Let's just say I acquiesce and I say He is the Kobe, which I don't think he is. I think he's Alan Iveson, but if he is the Kobe That means that he's the guy Huh? Oh, shit. Don't do that No, no Tell us social distancing go back back away from the microphone six feet social distancing Wayne ain't that close to jay Kobe's close to jordan. Wayne ain't that close to jay I mean We can let's just talk art. Let's just talk art. Let's just talk art But I will say this to show Wayne is dope, but he's not that close to jay. I feel like every generation because even jay We have our Michael Jordan of our generation. Yeah, right the big when I think of bro. It was Uh, what's his name? Wayne for the generation the last generation. Yep. Drake is that nigga? Like it as much as Drake is the LeBron Bro, I'm not even gonna know if we're gonna compare him as on some rap shit If we seeing as a as a artist, we're just personal with jay-z We're very personal with Drake is the jay-z of these kids right now. Drake is LeBron No, talk about him in rap time. He's the jay-z of right now of the last eight years because my son don't even jack the nigga Like my son is like, man, I don't listen to that and he's gonna go through that He's gonna go through the same shit that we when we telling kids, you don't listen to jay-z. They're like, what nigga little Wayne Yeah 100% Drake if we talking about music Drake is the jay-z of the generation I'm fucking rapping Michael Jackson, but he's also the LeBron and in the in the analogy with LeBron is even closer because um The longevity He got rings, but it's asterisks next to a lot of those rings because of the ghost writing and stuff like that They give LeBron asterisks because he went to go play in Miami But the reason I would never give LeBron an asterisk because he won that Cleveland goddamn ring That's a hard one, baby. That one ring is worth 15 rings anywhere else Yes, yo, you know, I'm so happy you say that because I've been watching basketball faithfully since like 1990 91 and that's the best championship I have To go to state wars with 73 and nine they were down 31 and he wanted for his hometown That's a big that's a ring ring. I'm gonna tell you what this all the things that we say You know what this says a lot about we not calling nobody to Kyrie or rat And I love Kyrie LeBronica might be the Kyrie He might be so he might be on a written testimony but Drake and LeBrona just like they they're so similar because of that the asterisk that people put next to them with the longevity LeBron been in the league 17 years still balling Drake has a 10-year running. I've never seen an artist have this kind of run Yo, bro, I ain't gonna lie with Drake like Even if you don't like even if a nigga be like man, I don't like that nigga whatever It's no way possible. You could go to his concert and not enjoy yourself. You can't front on Drake, bro Me and charlomies out to summer 16 shit and both of us I was like I did not get it nigga Like yeah, I was like, yo, this is crazy. I get it nigga nice, man My favorite part of that whole concert was when he just did features Yeah, when he did he go on he did features, bro But he and he took the shirt. You know how jb like hove used to do this shit when he black He's Bro, that nigga did work. No, he did worse behavior. That shit was like 15 seconds and turned it off. I don't believe he turned it off Turned it off. But he had Yeah, so many hits listen his place is his place is solidified in hip hop history But i'ma tell you something this shit is gonna really bother me if we don't figure out who the fuck Kanye West is I'm dead serious because y'all's front. No No Yeah, you got hella rings. Yeah, you got rings yay shack Yay shack, yo Yay shack i'ma tell you why yay is shack dominant. He was the most dominant He he he he produced his own shit He he really disrupted the game in that way when he produced his own shit when it comes to shack I don't know I haven't figured this out yet. We just we we we beating we we we try we gonna beat this up I could say he could be shack I can make a case that Kanye west It should kill O'Neill because of the way he came in and disrupted every fucking thing I say he's not though because conge inspired a bunch of people You don't see none nobody want to be like shack right now in the league. You can't though But the way Howard did want to be like shack, but I will say he like shack if Kanye is shack He's definitely shack on the Celtics right now No He's shack on the Celtics The real Cleveland he might be shack on cleat. Y'all forgot that shack played for cleat I remember air finish. So so so Kanye not chasing the ring right now No, he's not range. So how's he shack? You gotta compare the kind of like shack was ring chasing Shack told him he was No, I just think shack was just living life I really don't think he was just traveling bro. He just wanted to experience different shillings We went to Boston after Boston beat that Laker team. Yeah, I didn't get why do I think Kanye is shack Yeah, you go we're gonna have to And I don't want I don't want to say Tim Duncan because I think I think jay cold jay cold is the Tim Duncan a rap That's fair. Absolutely. He's the big fundamental. That's fair. You know, I'm saying you never hear But it'd be unfair saying that sometimes why I'm gonna tell you why because when it comes to the spurs In the history of history, you never heard a nigga say man. I gotta get home and catch this spurs game Never doesn't take away from that greatness doesn't take away from the because spurs is one of the greatest to me And I love Phil Jackson to death, but Popovich might be over filled Yeah, because Phil got lucky with a few of the players he had. He had two of the best guards of all time He had shack the best dominant big man of all time Popovich makes niggas into what he wants them to be He'd be somebody like koala in it koala in it if he would have went to the paces wouldn't have been koala in it Is it a no, he maximized their potential Yeah, so who's the player in the NBA that we've never quite seen anything like like like him before No, we don't have the stats. He got the rebound stats. That's it Emotionally That's why I think it's shag I think it's shag because we never had seen anything like shag in the league and we have yet to see anything like shag since So let me actually that's what i'm saying. So is jesus is king ring chasin. That's at the level of kong Wait, is jesus is king ring chasin No, that's heaven chasin That man trying to get into heaven, when you know Don't spin it like that man. The moral of the story is a written testimony Is a dope album. Yes, very dope. I'll fuck with it. I don't like flux capacitor I do wish that there was about two more just blades records The act like jail electronic ain't up ain't on there barring people up is wrong because he is But he's just standing next to the greatest rapper of all time the mike jordan the recording And I can't think of too many mcs who Would be able to stand up to the j Only like three niggas that actually held a on on the record with him. Who are the three beanie seagull being one beanie seagull definitely Kanye Beanie was one run his town. Come on. Kanye. Yeah, bro. Kanye. Kanye held his own on the That ain't one of my feet. That's not a I don't even consider that like a jay that could Let's take ourselves out of the rest of all. Yeah, i'm sorry social distancing Let's take ourselves out of allergies, bro. Let's take ourselves out of reservoir dogs time when niggas is rapping like that um Run this town Kanye verse on that shit is When I think of a Kanye j bar and up record, I think of diamonds and Sierra Leone remix They killed him j body. That's but that's j bar enough on on on run this time. That's just j playing with the beat We are this is a this. I hate that. Come on, man. But I still don't like that record like a beanie seagull Nicki Minaj, Nicki Minaj, Nicki Minaj Oh, Nicki Minaj your monster. Nicki Minaj your monster. Gotta give that to nicky, bro. Can I take that from her? She got everybody on that. She got every jay is on there. She got everybody on there She got everybody on that it don't it don't matter if you rap it on somebody and it's not that's what makes it even better Stiles people reservoir dogs. That's a one. That's but once but but Stiles people reservoir dogs Got them back on on on blackout though j got them back on reservoir dogs He got them back. No, he got them back on blackout Niggas is hot heads and the bullets is he's seeking Niggas is hothead and the bullets is he's seeking they flow for pesos chase hoes not just circle around a block in the drop Tell them jump in the top with yourself Fuck we were care about your pretty bitch. You watch your car. I don't care about your blocking whoever you shot I don't care about y'all. Whatever you drop. I'll give about your past if I did all the ads But it's like you drove with a whole lot of hatch. Yeah, but then As far as his rap shit, I'm 10 steps ahead of niggas. You're back with just practice Now that was hard But jake, what the hell with you? Jason, I know you I know pop you can't stand us because you cocked them hammers running your criminal prisoners pop Your grandma locked in the slam and no popped up in the land and crossed up in the drop I popped up the antenna. Whoa, watch your man with my veins pop like scanners like raindrops You hear the thunder when I cocked the cannon big thing big change That was you got a beanie seagull got a Beanie seagull verse on that shit is crazy too. Let me see beanie shit See who got him on the other shit. I'll take you out this world butt naked coming to blood gasping for air Clinging for dead light once again is on I heard that I couldn't believe it. I'm saying You're talking about you're talking about four guys. You're talking about three guys averaging 30 on the on the track record Yeah, you know what I'm saying like that like that's that's not a drop-off You know, I mean that's three elite level mcs And I'm not saying J. Electronica's not an elite level mc, but I don't know if he's an elite level mc I think he's a really dope mc. You don't have long in the body He don't put out enough music for the judge. I think that he is elite. He just got a like and he doesn't I feel like how are you saying about like cardi not like cardi B in the same sense But like it does he have to drop any more music like that is he going to I don't think jl Like trying to drop some music. Y'all scaring them off. That's not nobody He been not putting out music for some for somebody like me I'm a little biased just because I really love the subject matter But I can acknowledge That I don't think J's Electronica is an elite level mc. I think he's a dope mc. He could be he's 45 Hope He could be but I'm saying he could be an elite level mc if he had consistency Now if tomorrow or next week that just blaze if just blaze if you hear this to drop that out because we ain't got shit else We can't even fucking eat in mc donalds if you want to right hey if he dropped that shit and it's Bars that's just as heavy And just as impactful then we see some consistency. Yeah, it took 10 years for us to get eight songs I think that's the part that everybody's critical of Niggas can't he kind of And that's the reason why jay had to be on it and I had this conversation with your gati one time He's like man right now He's like I just took three years off from putting on putting on my album He's like these niggas today can't not put out an album for three years. They can't Lil uzi can Kendrick Lamar can't Mark and hold on I want to come back and talk about uzi I'm gonna put a button on the written testimony shit go read a message to the black man And then go listen to a written testimony burn some sage lights some candles.

This is when we just run through some hot topics Okay Walker has an issue with the flip to switch challenge. Do y'all have an issue with the flip to switch challenge I somewhat yes Boy talk to you not a real issue But I just think like I'm gonna keep it a hundred man like loving won't make me put your High heels in your dress on I never had that type of love Like, you know, I mean and people were like, oh, it ain't that serious for you. It ain't like I just I'm not doing that You know what I'm saying?

You ain't gonna flip to switch challenge No, I'm not doing that I think that there is a little bit of a attack on male masculinity a little bit. I think this is a light I don't think it was I don't think this challenge was meant for that. But you it's a little underlined or whatever. I'm not tripping over. I don't You know, it's just like, um, you know, I don't know Men run this planet But it's like every time a man says something about being a man people just get so offended about that You know, I mean, yeah It's nothing wrong with like I feel like people you you write to have your stance or whatever But I have a stance or something and I I can't I mean like you can say whatever you want that could possibly hurt my feelings But if I say something that hurts yours, then I'm the wrong person. Yeah, I'm just not entertaining about a flip to switch challenge I'm just not it's not entertaining to me.

It was supposed to stay a week Saw the hysteria on the news her mom started calling her like no We need you back home in South Africa. She got on the next thing smoking and flew back But she said to me like why is everybody tripping? It's like it's like the flu. She was like We got malaria malaria kills three four million people a year. She said we went through Ebola Ebola had a 50 fatality rate in Africa. You know what I'm saying? And that kind of put things in perspective for me, you know, America not used to nothing. We spoiled Yeah, but I mean what puts it in the perspective also is that The world don't care about black people like like just to keep it a hundred like in in that context like It's no that was not comparing it to but I look at it the same way how um I remember uh, they said that obama had axed, uh, china for like engineering jobs or something like that And they said no because china produces a million engineers a year And they was like what could they get these jobs over any and like no Like because a lot of people is not growing up in this country to be you know Engineers, you know what I'm saying? So The standards changed with a lot of stuff. I mean malaria these things that's been playing in africa been happening for forever But the thing about it is it's like if it's not in a place where niggas are stealing them natural resources Or it's not in a place where they don't give a fuck. They don't give a fuck. Come on, man Yeah, but still ain't got clean water by the way. They got clean water and now they have have coronavirus too Yeah, America just not used to nothing. Um, this is a good I don't want to say social experiment, but it just shows us that like it's just little things that we have to learn to do On our own That's why I love being from the south because you know, we do learn to live off the land You know I'm saying I was talking to andrew earlier this week And he's telling me about how corona's all over this place corona's all over that place and I said andrew You ordering uber eats, ain't you? You know I'm saying if the shit can live on services. You got somebody fixing your food in the restaurant You got somebody delivering your food. They bag it up for you. They put it in the uber eats. They deliver to you like You know and he's like, yeah, but we got to eat and that was that made me think like boy America's so spoiled because if that is what we're depending on to eat Yeah, I need to put on an uber Imagine when these restaurants imagine when some real apocalyptic shit happen and shit can't move at all You better learn how to farm Yes, you better learn how to motherfucking farm. You better learn how to fish You know and to go back what you said too, you know, I was I was thinking about this Winner because you said something about engineering And I thought about this when we talked about having a black agenda with these politicians like I think that should be part of the black agenda. I think that they should make trade school free Not just not just these, you know, these hbc us and these pwis like make trade school free People need to learn how to do shit with their hands again, man Change of time I just you know, it's crazy like because with this whole The first time I ever voted I only voted because they said vote, you know, I mean and I was old enough But now I really don't trust no politicians at all. You shouldn't none of them like none of them Like I understand like the the whole local politics I started getting into that like three three or four years ago One of my homegirls started putting me on about local politics because I'm always thinking about how to change the hood Even though I don't live there. I'm like, yo, that's from there. Yeah, I'm from there So it's like that's why I want to change first But it's like no president. None of the shit that they saying really pertains to how I'm living or the people I love is how they live it So I don't know man. I'm Yeah, that's why I think they should uh, you know, make trade school free just because Number one that'll get the economy popping quick because people can go out there and get jobs immediately Everybody need plumbers. Everybody need electricians. Everybody need people to fix their motherfucking air condition Everybody need somebody to fix their goddamn car. You know what I mean? You want to trade school? No, I want to trade school. I ain't I've done nothing quit it like like Carpentry first it was first it was carpentry and go with wood. No fuck pause, but um Secondly With carpentry It was like They give you a box right a wood and you had to like make all of the edges round Every time I got to the third one the shit kept breaking So then I was like, yo, can I switch my trade? They put me in uh welding Man, I did that shit for five minutes and quit bro Because I put you in that dark ass room with that thing on your face I thought I was gonna set myself on fire because the shit that the welding shit got stuck It should start sparking. I was bitching. I ran out the room You do realize if everybody think the world going in like they think thinking now and they think some Apocalypse this shit gonna happen. You know the people we call them first, right? What the people that know how to do those trades people that know how to weld people that know how to do plumbing People that know how to fucking do electricity all of that type If the world ends it's gonna be because the polar caps break it It's not gonna be because it uh, you know what I mean? It's gonna be from the polar the polar caps melt and it's not gonna be from um with you That's why I don't disrespect to nobody out there I think climate change is some nonsense and the reason I think climate change is some nonsense Yes, I will do my part To try to reverse You know what's been going on on this planet, but there ain't no reversing it the earth tired of us The earth sick of our shit, okay? I was just watching this shit on National Geographic last night, man. The polar caps is melting Sick of us! Celebrating when people be telling us about like Two, but like we only got for us 2020 recorded years and people be talking about two billions two billion years ago. So how many how many earths has it been? Yes, how many how many how many species have come and gone dinosaurs cavemen I'm happy you always talk about aliens and shit Word because I'm gonna keep it a hundred if you look at animals If these niggas could open their mouth and say something they'd be aliens Like the shit I seen some shit the other day that looked like some shit straddling in black If this motherfucker could have said hi, I'd have been scared enough Bro, let's think about this. We never heard dinosaurs making noise. We made up a whole Way they sound How do we know that? Imagine what turtles have seen Turtles look thousands a year Turtles be probably looking at us like man, I can't wait to these niggas It's so many But you know a lot of like science fiction like movies is reflected by nature because like I just was watching some shit the other night about um Uh, I forgot parasites, right? And they show some shit about these fucking uh this like spores and it should remind me of alien covenant Remember how the spores got people and they got the alien inside of them fucking spore gets on an ant It drives the ant crazy, bro Makes the ant walk out of the colony and go sit on a limb until it dies and then grows out of the ant Imagine some shit like that happen to people But people and I'm not saying coronavirus ain't a serious thing, but there's so many things that go on that could by the way We bullshitting that might be why the government tripping. This is shaman conspiracy theory That coronavirus might be a plant and they might have already been experimenting with this shit And saw what happens after nine ten months. We might turn into gremlins in some while. I'm serious That's why they quarantine them up others like yo, don't eat after midnight. Don't fucking get wet Like seriously, don't don't get hot and watch net geo or the news. Yeah, bro You see all them locusts. I think that's it That's that's revelations. That's what that's what jay electronica wraps on that on the ribbon testimony He's like locust locusts something in plaques a bolivirus is a plague Coronavirus is a plague these fucking locusts. You ain't seen this shit Yeah, I see I see another video of it the look like that like this shit is really Fucking happening, but guess what you get what you asked for if you've been going to church all these years And you've been hearing about that second coming. This might be it and what are you going to do? Amen, nothing you can do about it. So you think i'm about to stress Yeah, I ain't stressing. What you gonna do? I ain't stressing. I'm just in a career with the kids. What if this is the end? Then it's the end. It's the fucking end. You know, I asked my son about that I asked my son what he thought about like all this coronavirus shit and all that he was just like I guess if you get it, you get it That's what he said. He was like you get it you get it Innocence, man, I mean, what can we do? Deepak Chopra Seven spiritual laws of success the sixth one is um the law of detachment and he said talks about how you just got to lean into the uncertainty Of anything, you know, and even when it's any type of turmoil when it's any type of problem when it's confusion Lean into it because there's a solution within all that confusion Hopefully we get to the confute. Uh, we get to the solution before Whoever is watching us gets tired of watching us because trust me if somebody up there In the universe a higher power that's watching us like netflix and he fell asleep or she fell asleep And that's it or you have you are you continuing to watch this program and the numbers are counting down That's very scary.

I think that's a really good one I think that America is going to learn that we're really not prepared But anything America has been living too high off the hog for too long A lot of things that we see happen in other countries We just think that it can't happen to us because it's America and um, it's kind of like when 9 11 happened in new york city Right, like you didn't think something that tragic could happen in new york But you saw how it shut the city down this right here is shutting the nation down So I just think that you know one thing that we need to learn is that we're really not prepared And number two when shit hits the fan. We all in the same motherfucking boat be period We're not in control. It's the other thing. We're not in control. God damn it The arrogance of man is to think that they think that we're in control Especially the american man. Oh, you want to make god laugh? Tell him your plans. That's right Right, uh, just jay walker. We're doing asking the idiot. He says what's one thing you miss? I'm not answering that that's stupid Um at ryan Dilo Asked an idiot says who in the studio is the most likely to get the wuhan By the wuhan, he means the corona virus Insha Allah, none of us Get the corona virus. Yeah, you know, like what the fuck? Who's most likely your mother?

There's a number jaymus Yeah, he gone. You're gonna be going to get your crab legs some wells, but yeah, he's a free agent now I'm up to the giants, baby. I hope somebody pick him up. He'll be good in new york You're the crazy thing about y'all got a good quarterback though Man, the thing about football though is like a nigga could be a quarterback for 15 years and be losing Like that should just create one point a point guard. You you fuck up the first season. It's over. You out of head If they did the delonzo ball Um, oh, this is a good one asking idiot, uh, andrugz said what do y'all think about oper trending on twitter last night for human trafficking accusations I missed that one number one trend to top it. They said they rated her crib and all that shit Yeah, I but then she said that she didn't rate her that nobody rated her crib She's been sanitizing and socially distancing herself. I think it's dangerous. Um, it goes back what I've been telling you about social media Yeah, it goes back what I've been telling you about social media some awesome wells war the world Shit is gonna happen on social media because niggas believe anything they see on social media like somebody sent me that video Yesterday afternoon. It was a fucking youtube video, bro Do you understand if open winfrey's house got raided that shit would be worldwide international news Every fucking where not on some youtube video the same niggas that believe in a flat earth believed in that open winfrey Sex trafficking video yesterday You know anybody who believe in flat earth because I know somebody my wife's brother I met somebody that that that believes me real dog. I told you should tell them walk off it right now So I told him. Yeah, I believe I believe if it even was flat you still couldn't walk off of it If it was flat, why would they lie and tell us about that? Why would it matter? But the thing about you know, everybody wants to believe Something else that everybody else believes. You know what I mean? Like everybody wants to say oh, man, you believe that you it's like kind of like in no bullshit, man Like what they did with young burgbro like how people jump there People jumped off the on my nigga like jumped off the roof on him was talking crazy all of that and then that women Need that woman needs to be charged 100% Yeah, that's just crazy Some charges brought up against record women make these accusations about men these accusations don't be true And then nothing happens. Nothing. She tried to line that man up clearly, right? You know, I'm saying young burg said that the woman uh Swung on him in the house I don't believe in hitting women, but if there's ever and I if there's ever A time when you probably would is when you see that this woman's trying to set you up. Yeah Look at all your fucking surveillance footage and you see dudes trying to come in the house And then she swings on you you like yo, you got to do what the fuck you got to do to survive Yeah, man Yeah, I hope you get through all of that But you see how people was just like so easily impressionable Yes, and also with the over thing. I always say nobody cares about the truth and the lies more entertaining um, it's it's it's it's it's I think all three of us have been uh Uh on the other side of that. Oh, absolutely And people when people don't like you they'll run with anything that's against you So people don't like Oprah right now. You mean that they don't like Oprah They want to have some dirt on her to be able to kick her back in they would love to be like They would love to do that shit So people jump on shit that either reinforces narratives They already believe or have some type of confirmation bias or something. They already think about you Yeah, man. Like just think about that Oprah human trafficking Again, Oprah and human trafficking Like I the thing is is that there's a lot of skeletons of people's clouds and all that but Oprah and human trafficking They had called it 20 years ago.
