Boy, hey, yo, we can go vam for a van. Right on. And so, how'd everybody be in? Since we last fought anything new going on in your lives, anything fun or exciting?
It's the summer time, what's going on? I hit a cyclist with my car too. What? Are you for it?
Yeah, what happened? I hit a cyclist, somebody on a bike. Are you sure? He or something?
You're good? Yeah, man. So... I was...
But I slowed down to like three miles, four miles an hour without making a turn. And I really didn't want them. She really just... I really just heard her with my mirror.
With my mirror. She fell down, and I was sorry. I was so sorry. You know?
And then she got up with like her helmet on, and was like, I'm going to need your information. And I was like, oh fuck, this is not going to be cool. Like, I'm just like, all right, this is my license. Who would you take a picture?
I don't like your license. You did a video with my license. And I was like, all right. Yeah.
I mean, I'm on license plate. So I had my new information. So I was like, getting my license. And then like, I knew she was on some bullshit, because she like kept my license.
I was just letting her take a picture of it. You know what I'm saying? Like, whatever. Like, if you need a new bike, I guess.
Whatever. But again, it was just a block, right? Like, she was fine. I was like, that's not a issue.
That's not a issue. I'm like, oh. I'm like, is your bike under my car? Like, because you've never moved your bike, right?
So I was like, fuck. So I was like, let me pull into this gas station. So I pulled the gas station. I walked up to her and I actually was on the phone with somebody.
And I'm like, all right, I mean, I don't want to get the cotton ball, but can I see you have insurance, whatever? I'm like, yeah. Just literally. That's not my thing.
I mean, what you're over all feeling about is because, I mean, maybe it was just like the way you told the story, but it just kind of seemed like it was kind of too many coincidences and what I'm like. Oops. I just don't have to try myself outside of you, right? You know, realize that you're slowing down.
Oh, I'm already on the phone with somebody. I don't even know. I think so. I'm going to need your information.
I mean, like, you say she kept your license. I mean, like, she said, I got to like, right? No, I'm not going to take a picture. So I'm still in my car when I get on my life, right?
I want to make the picture of the concert ride. Right. I got to hit her. So then I'm like, all right.
So then, like I said, I walk up to it, whatever. She's on the phone. And, um, but what I gather is that she's one of those, um, cyclists, right? That's like, you share the role with people with likes.
So you need to like, that's even worse. Again, she's out of my house when she started riding beside me, but I don't see it. And it was like, you know, I don't know. So she's like, I gotta get my friend face.
I'm like, all right. Like, I do that, like, you know, we're in this vin. Well, I was like, well, all right, you got an information, too. She's like, I don't get the police load, whatever.
Um, but, you know, I just want to disencase whatever. So I'm like, all right, whatever, you know, I'm fast, but you want to pick your bike up, or whatever. Cause I'm trying to, I want to pick a bike up in like, yeah. Video take that to shoot like you got the wrong with a bike or whatever, right?
So just like no, I have somebody coming. I'm like here. We go. So I'm like, alright Well, you like under citizens of the wrist for a few minutes watching the day do what you had you know I could have I could have peeled off I would do right thing right like if I get the energy or bike or whatever reason like I would have Did it but like wish you was acting so so extra like you're fine You know I'm saying like I want you up idea, but it was literally just my mirror that hit Yeah, there's level session.
I've hit somebody with it. I've hit someone on a bike before but it was crack it So it was obviously a different experience for sure Right now So I was driving near work out like at a stop sign I was looking down at my phone and I was like it feels like it's time to go and I'm just At the same time I'm not gonna go over like I hit this nigga or you fell over So you'd say right sleep to bone there at the bone the nigga put the car and They can fell over. Oh shit. I'm going to jail.
I'm gonna kill the nigga I got a stop and I was like, oh you got you got it. He's got up You know saying like records resilient dogs like it's like brush that shit off. He's like I'm good brother And he went on about his wife, you know So that's what she was gonna be like just just be caregiving that you didn't even do as much so right I'm a story and I'm a generation I'll just cruise and down the world famous down having a one day and if do like turns in front of me He waited to the absolute last minute like literally a Vietnam anything different We went straight and he like turns into me and hits me So he appears to be old and elderly man like once we shamed information about his network He was born like in the 60s and I'm thinking this man like 80s I'm just saying that the whole man and probably should be out on the road driving so now this one I'm like yeah, I'm like, yeah, like yeah real life But anyway, some people come here to the scene I guess like his son and probably daughter Laura daughter son and something like that Well, you know, I ain't sure that I was broke up I was like I had replaced the head like I could take care of that or whatever I just want to document it, but I ain't trying to file no claim or not so Whoever it went like his insurance company in the region out of me and it ended up like I am for a paint job and the lights and bodywork And I'll kind of stuff like I'm out here with a friend Once they got involved I guess what people put the heads in it like it was no way to come and out I Be aware you know, I'm saying like Sheila J. I felt bad I am doing fun when I did I literally said I told the son of my man is cool like pop line I'll be right now.
I'm saying like I'm straight whenever I'm telling these people to land them down like I'm good I ain't I don't know claim in that and they should go back Right on this shit crazy y'all drive out there man She let's get into the podcast so let's get started. Um, it is June and June is men's health month among other things Yep No, it's just men's health month No, no, I mean it's fine. I mean mental health obviously is under that umbrella So it's like your mental and physical health the purpose of the month is the drive awareness Around men making sure they take care of their health in all of all its forms getting checked doing things Using your primary care physician Checking on your mental health and doing things to improve your mental health. So it just be a mindful about it So I was gonna pose a question to the group Is there anything that y'all are doing in particular and it doesn't necessarily have to be because of the men's health month But in general to address your physical or mental health And obviously it's where everybody kind of taking in and I'm wrong I didn't know that it was being a tough month We just said that but what I have been doing this in the near term is trying to be more intentional about just getting some kind of Moving in so like I won't take the long way that day I went to a little shopping glazer I had to go to like Walmart Rose Oh, maybe like four or five different spots I just parked my car gun in the middle and I walked on the spot you know I'm saying versus so just trying to do like little stuff like that.
It's easier to keep up with and you know simple changes Yeah, absolutely anything for y'all. I don't know. I think it's just doing All the things you always should have been doing man like you know, you Is this funny, you know, you supposed to brush on all the fucking teeth like No, you supposed to go you need to go you need a walk you need to run you need to eat right This is nothing that we've heard this ever since we were little kids But we were just young enough to wear it didn't really fucking matter that much now you're in age where that shit fucking matters Like bitch you will get a fucking cavity you'll get a cavity quick as fucking fuck you and I have a bag of fucking Herribos not you gotta go to fucking dinners. Oh Like you gotta eat well, but like you're gonna It's not just a gaining weight like if blood pressure is gonna go up your blood sugar is gonna be out of fucking wag like I mean Even drinking like I mean I used to be able to drink like a fish I mean and I still can drink it's not the matter of holding your sobriety It's like if I have fucking 60 drinks in a night What the fuck happens the next day like what the fuck is that you feel like I'd be done gay All of that shit getting three pounds blood pressure fucking shot this shit You know I'm saying don't feel good like all that shit fucking matters, bro And we got too much shit going on to sleep it off for six hours in a day I don't have too many days where I can just sleep sleep it off for six hours I got shit to do so we're just doing all this shit.
You know you should have done But now that it matters just making sure you come through on your execute. That's it. I mean I knew other Son I think I'm saying on this back at before I try to keep my brain sharp, you know One of my grandmothers has dementia And just you know other people whose parents are struggling with or I struggle with like a mention stuff like that So they always say no try to keep your brain busy So every morning I do re of the New York's New York Times games I do connections wordle and strained every day just to get do that I was trying to read more, you know just just things things for your brain As far as I guess health wise and I guess just I know spirit spiritual health Every Sunday with a committee I watch this one Pastor in Pittsburgh church takes go to a little Pittsburgh and then I like I walk like maybe five miles along the bayou And I'll go one way on the way back uses the sermon's over and I'll catch Chicago church that I like to listen to on the way back so That paired with like the water and the sun and the squirrels and birds and shit the nature Kind of gets me in a good mindset every Sunday morning. So No, there's a couple things oh One big one big big big big big because we weren't talking about I was at a funk at the beginning of the year and shit like that So making it through the other side of that one big thing is get the fuck off social media Get off that shit like regulate it restricted to whatever you got to do that shit.
It's not good for us I mean, I know we like it. I know there's shit. There's takes there's images or whatever, but nobody gets on social media unscathed It doesn't matter what age you are doesn't matter how strong you think you are mentally You know it doesn't matter how you feel or how you think you feel social media affects everybody So it's it's this it's this generation's cigarettes. So restricted cut back Like take cut that shit out your life as much as possible and I promise don't be beneficial Neserio I know for me.
I just just stopped recently I think it's mostly because I'm taking out my medicine but something upset me on social media Like like legit upset me. I would I would get increased heart rate alerts on my Apple watch Like I was like a normal thing if I'm pissing me off or upset me I was like this is not good and granted hasn't happened in a while, but that was definitely a thing So I mean yeah, I agree with that but also what you said about the teeth is really important like I don't think mother's talk about teeth enough like going to the dentist Like I'm going to the dentist in a couple of weeks get a routine cleaning, but they don't take much to get cavity now I am missing a side to that I have to get filled with real tooth like He really are you're I'm missing the side Sitting with my sister shoot the shit in the little section you laughing and all of a sudden I start spitting out pieces of tooth It was like that the T fall out my man real time like in real life Definitely feel so conscious about my That's my Yeah, yeah, I was like, you know, I think I'm doing what I'm supposed to do and I'm up I'm gonna start falling apart. So it was bad, but I try to be mindful of that. I take care of my teeth I'm I do all sorts of other shit, but I do need to get a tooth there Ultimately because the doctor was like, you know, you don't want like the rescue comes the suffer cuz so I got a lot of gold to So so so so I started following a guy a lot of people follow Once again, I didn't know somebody sent me the dude.
He was talking about yeah, like a little kid talking no What a teatop Just about the healing factors of like walking on the beach cuz I have sports and all this other shit Right, you know that shit I mean to but so I started to get some more videos and reals And he was just talking about, you know, how important the Sun is and melanin and all that and that man should Those scrotum tanning right it's like think about some of the darkest parts of your body. They need they need Sun so to not throw the trainer is it? No, not a son's name. I tell you his name, but I was like, I mean that kind of makes sense That also gets your ass arrested So I was trying to see where can I let my jigly be a tang and get some fresh sun on things In the backyard Around there like people can see over my face.
That's not gonna be done, bro I was wondering if I could just do it like in like the boy Your son comes in real good, but I feel like I might need like the fresh the fresh real son I'm gonna be real fun on it. He too. So I think you want me to know my so I think now his name is Katie the arch degree Arch degree up and a few just a little tanning. That's what he says Way to freak your page Very Before your algorithm before your algorithm gets like J Joe's get the fuck off social media I would I am because I will say I got um, I was thinking of ways to heal my ball skin because I got my second me last week Last weekend last week last Thursday and I have been concerned about my ball skin and I was thinking of what are good What are ways to get my balls skin to heal quicker?
I was thinking to just dip in my balls in the ocean because I know that the salt water has healing properties and it closes wounds and shit I'm a lean towards experience Fucking platelet issue or something. What your body's not fucking healing. How about a diabetic? Like a reverse healing factor.
Yeah, it's a real thing. Oh shit If you're diabetic like it takes longer for your body to heal Oh, so the thing is I was like, you know, maybe I should get my body or maybe put some sun on my balls to Speed up the healing process granted. I'm almost there But I just wanted to be like a I don't know my balls be regular again You're right. So it's like a reversible variant So if your blood sugar is high it prevents your immune system from functioning efficiently increasing inflammation in the blood cells This affects and slows down wound healing Wow So treacherous disease, but um granted like I said, it's healing pretty quickly for me I've never had a ball skin affliction and ball skin is a different type of skin, you know, I mean so Like you know hurt no more.
I was never left. It don't hurt no more Where to get grays so I'm making progress there But I was thinking maybe if I like dip it in the in the saltwater of the ocean that would you know see the process? No, shit, maybe I've got to occur to be an island of some shit. I'll be fine by then.
You'll be fine. I do appreciate the advice of the wood and the feedback because It's not something you talk to about a type of shit. I'm obviously Like you call to the second me connect. No, you got to like you need to have a second community to talk to just you know Shit, we're fucked up.
So I appreciate that but um yeah in general Like I think everybody needs to be mindful of how you manage your health from mental and physical standpoint Like it doesn't have to be just because it's men's health month But you know if no one's gonna then no one's gonna take care of you you guys take care of you so you know look out It was not Okay There's a storm out there. Well, we'll move forward So Niggas got upset This week Michael raining who plays to reek on power He was on a live stream. I guess you know promoting the show the live stream shows be kind of crazy I mean I don't get it completely maybe because I'm old nigga, but in these live streams I guess it was like some kid from New York They just have everybody like the cousins little kids the whole family be on a live stream talking about nothing and people just watch that For entertainment now. I guess very popular very popular meeting and Tariq was there well, Mike or anyone there on the show talking about the show.
Let me not say to read my bet Because the series He is forever to read but he got he was on the show and I guess the young man who showed is his sister Groped him live on the live stream Mike so he was there Mike she grabbed and it wasn't like a short group It was like a pretty extensive rubbing and he was trying to block his black her hands from touching his dick and She eventually stopped and he and then a few minutes after the live stream ended and he left So he responded later, you know kind of confirming everything that we saw because I mean it was the shit went viral Like way before he made any sort of He sort of comments on what happened But in general I'll go ahead quit. Oh, it's a real quick point of order. It was broken only like genitalia and private areas That's on a hand line and I feel like I'm waiting on the video and the sugar and all the time So I never end up seeing it or really reading up on the way Well, you say growth is it just I wanted touching or does growth automatically be valued. I think groping is unwanted touching In general somebody looked at it.
You know we can look at it like groping some chips right now I don't think so groping is To feel or fondle someone for sexual pleasure, especially against their wheel The episode real quick Mustn't like 80s early 90s where like they did a final puzzle in that we like well We got 30 more seconds and he kids vanning them out. Do you remember that? No, 40 years ago Yeah, I remember seeing that live as a kid so like seven years ago. Oh shit, what does that?
Yeah, I'm sorry That's a while you got buddy. Yeah, buddy from family if you kiss them up Yeah Richard Dawson I would just tell them I know what somebody to be over the top like that. They kind of you trying to cover up some cases Like that would be crazy and rich Then you kiss them No, I'm in the interview Though Richard Dawson has never has never said to be gay being a famous actor homosexual is something understood as normal by society There's speculation there's rumor, but I don't think that there's confirmation but I think when there's smoke is fire Yes, sir Well, well, let me share But three say real quick get back to reek. So at this point everyone has seen the video circulating online I'm still in shock and don't know how to fully process what happened last night.
This is an unfortunate situation I do not condone it anyway. I can't take it lightly because I know it would be I would be in serious trouble if the roles reversed Rains shared on his instagram story I said we're all human and we should respect each other most importantly. We should respect ourselves Okay, so I agree with that I saw people like saying they need to chill those 50s in a while and they go my own I believe it's around these axes different But question for the group have you all been have you ever been unwontantly groped by a young woman? I definitely have a big wrap but just a drunk chick or yeah, I've definitely got got grouped Had to respond to it I don't remember Hey, y'all out basically.
Oh, yeah, well. Yeah, well. You're crazy when it when it happened to me. I was like in a sport toy phase So I didn't really probably realize it from the standpoint of like oh, that was wrong to like happen the fact So I didn't um in the moment.
I didn't I didn't think much about it. I still don't take it that seriously I mean, I I've never felt like a victim, you know, I'm saying like I never felt assaulted. Um, So I I'm not gonna get brand new when the tables are turned and saying some of this shit y'all take way too fucking seriously Like I have no idea. I have no idea what went on before the cameras were even on, you know, saying they could have been playing like that You know saying I don't know And she might have kept the game going longer than it should have but I just don't have enough information, right?
There's the same thing I would say if the Rules return so I'm not gonna get brand new now. Right. I just don't know so get it if he feels that he was assaulted That's fucked up. You know saying that should be that should be done That should be riveted.
Nobody deserves to be in a situation where they feel that they were assaulted or whatever the fuck but I mean It's a little much but you can't you can't give that a pass especially when you're in a public eye and you're famous, right? Because at that point like you Grab your dick, you know, I get no I get it. He can't Shoot he can't give it a pass. You know, that's why he's gotta come out and be the victim and you know Nobody should have to go through what the fuck I went through.
I mean, yeah I mean you did grab and get the shot 12 times, you know, it's the same same so nobody should have to go through that sort of situation I get it. You know, I get it But it's Bro like but at this point, okay, so it's different time. So So say next gravity No, I go I want to dig gravity. I want to dig gravity.
What's a nice That point is not even the sexual assault element. It's the it's the phobia Fuck about the social salt element. I just can't let no gain No, no, no, I'm keeping it a bit like if another nigga grabbed my dick I wouldn't feel like a victim and I wouldn't feel sexually saucer I just don't fuck with a game to grab my dick and that has to deal with Like that's the training of gravity of dick. What?
I was training around my dick. I don't know what the fuck was the game to grab my dick. I don't know what? I was training a plane.
What? As soon as I was a straight nigga, I was a dick. She's not a gay nigga. No man.
I was like, no, I was like, I'm gonna be doing that again with a dick. That's the rule I was gonna be bad each other man. That's gay. You know the same one?
I would say that um So I think I agree I mean I agree with in that it is a different time because it's happened to all of this I think it's really calming but I guess I shrugged it off. I think I would have been mad if it was like ugly girl who did it or someone I found unattractive. That's when most sexual assault. Absolutely.
See, I don't even like the term social assault. It's all about unwanted groping. So if I don't think you're attractive and I definitely don't like that. That's what people say already like in an office setting.
Hey, Kristina, you're really wearing that dress. I'm the quote unquote cute guy. I'm the work husband, whatever. It's cool.
And it's a creepy old dude that works in sign hands. Like, hey, Kristina, you're really wearing that dress. You know what I'm saying? Like, it depends.
I can tell that line if you want to. You'll learn one way another. If she thinks you're cute or not. Yeah, I mean, I will say I mean I'm not gonna say that.
I mean, don't tell that line. I take that bag over the top. No, I'm not gonna tell. I mean, it's more about.
And I want to use this. No, no, no, no, I think it's worth it. I would say in general, I mean, it's about disrespecting people at this point. Like, I'm happy they're having conversations on both ends about what sexual assault looks like and what it is.
But I would say in real application as a grown man, and just we're gonna we're gonna really in real time address it differently. His the difference between us and him was he is famous. The shit was on a live stream being seen by tens of thousands of people. And he was in a place, a chaotic place full of kids and niggas.
He don't know for real. He don't know what they capable of. So he had to play a shi cool. So everything that makes all the difference.
Has she said anything about this? She said nothing. The dude who's live stream was he kind of half apologized. Mostly because I'm assuming he's gonna fuck up his money.
So he tried to make things work. But I think it's still up in the air for like to like press charges on that girl because what she did. I think that's something that's being I guess. She was like, like, rather than get taken home for the kids.
And a room for the kids. Wow. I mean, we had like the aggressive hood chick or the aggressive country girl that we all know would do that shit. Like this this ain't nothing new under the sun.
Like, I don't understand. I don't understand. Like, clearly, clearly I come from a toxic time. I don't understand.
First of all, I don't even fuck with rape in this being in the same category. Right? Was it was it? Was it?
No, right. It's actually salt. Is that the thing right now? Yes.
Grab an ass is sexual assault. It's also like an umbrella. It's all sexual assault. Like people are saying he's an essay victim.
But he was sexually assaulted. People are sexually assault. That's fine. That's fine.
We got a narrow the focus on these umbrella terms because it just lumps too many people in to the. If you grab if you grab a girl ass and she don't want you to grab her ass. That is sexual assault between right. I mean, yeah, but I mean going to go into the red light district and buy some pussy out the window with sex trafficking.
It is. But come on, bro. Like I'm a sex trafficker now. Like, you got a narrow the focus on the people want to lump as many motherfuckers as they can into the criminal bad person category as possible.
You can't grab genital. So it's not like she sneezed on the nigga's dick and some snot got on there. She literally sold the nigga. So what, JJ?
So fucking what? It's wrong. You can't do it. It's okay.
The world is the wrong place. The world is the wrong place. Everything doesn't require. Everything doesn't require.
Everything doesn't require a fucking therapy. It's going to be okay. Like honestly, it's really if they didn't fucking post this shit on Twitter and call this nigga and essay victim a million times, it would have been done with it. Like, you can tell you don't have a fucking shit.
That's a great way to think that shit's okay. And that's why women that wouldn't have been wearing. That's why women that wouldn't even want to fuck all the time. That's why it's not that.
Women push you down and like, you don't give me some dick. It's okay for women to do that because that's how it's been programmed. That men are always ready to fuck. But things can be not okay.
Things can be not okay. And they still not need to go to the town square to be adjudicated by law enforcement or the people or whatever. Like that can easily be important. I mean, it's not really being adjudicated.
All the life you be on it. Everyone's all right. You're only the fucking chill. You know what I'm saying?
Two, like I've discussed this scenario a bunch of times with people that and I'm always more out of the high sex being that like, if you talk to any of your own girls, if she takes 10 random numbers on her phone, she gonna get a bite on somebody to come through and smash before you will and do it. If you take 10 random numbers on your phone. So shit, like I feel like and it doesn't make it right. But the girl probably was like, oh, he's a dude.
So he's got a school. He's not gonna care. Right. I agree.
But you can't listen to that. We can't, I mean, and in general, I mean, I think it's, I think it's just proper to say it's improper. It's a different time. This you and Chef go out dressed like thoughts all the time.
Y'all and you. Who's you? Wait, what's happening? Y'all two niggas.
Y'all get short sets. Y'all got that fucking upper thigh meat showing. The upper thigh lighting in the dark, the bottom thigh. Y'all niggas dance.
And you be assing. You dance too. This is the dancing of dancing niggas. Y'all have on whole clothes.
I don't know. I don't know. Yes you do. I don't.
I don't. You got some short shots. You got some short shots. Of you, pink shorts.
That was a family vacation. That was a family vacation. But I'm just saying, you don't want to give women a green light to be on the boat. Like, y'all like to go on the boat.
And just be around that. Robbie index finger on the cranky ass. Swipe up. You don't want that.
No, I wasn't like that at all. I just feel that shit can be improper and there can be things that are done to you that you're like, man, you're a growny is a chill. Why not you being a victim? Like, I just don't.
Yeah, I just don't. Like, get your juggly ass. Frank put a look in fingers off me, bitch. This stuff you could do.
Like, I got a dresser on my own. I was like, if she went and was bold and brazen enough to do this shit on the live stream, he probably would have been, oh, shit. And that would have been it. But yeah, I've been it.
But that's actually what his face is like. His face is like, yo, oh, oh, I mean, he wasn't like. He didn't scream out. You know what I'm saying?
Oh, shit, this is happening. You know what I'm saying? Let me not let me go back because I ain't trying to to fuck shit up. His response is probably the same response anyone would have man or woman in that situation.
No way. I'm not going to say it's customary for a victim just to take it and be cool and or no, no, they're not screen out and shit. That's not normal. They might not scream out.
You know what I'm saying? I think if you grab a woman's pussy, it's going to be totally different. Yeah, no, it is. It's a reaction.
But you don't know that. It's not a given. It's not a 90s. It's very probable.
Right. Probability. That's you. What the fuck?
And you probably going to get hit? Right. Right. I've never done that before.
I don't think any of us have. So I can't really, I can't say it. But I don't know what to say. I mean, either.
So I was like, I don't know what the reaction could be. And sending the bills. Absolutely. When everybody knows the pussy forever, though.
Yeah. One movie with that. That was like, I was in a lot of movies. Like, I thought, no, I'm saying, I'm too sensing the bills.
It went in favor of the trench. I feel like it was on the move on it. But that was like the tagline and the movie that came back a couple of times. It wasn't, it wasn't, it was the one where there'd be more F-O-M-V2 though.
Where Robert Redford was like, cannot confuck your wife. Oh, these are proposals? You know, I can't. These are proposals.
That's it. That's the point that might be the one. Concerning the bills was a cool name for a car boat. She and Daley's having a telepathic.
Used to be like, he's poetry and live music and candles. In essence. I really enjoyed that time, by the way. I know you've been doing the, What were we talking about the Neo Soul time?
That's why I guess? We talked about it. He was on it. I'm a little like a lot of socials, but I'm changing.
Like, I'm here all week. Give me more head. I had a run for a little bit there boy. And boy was, what's her club man?
She was. I mean, she's still around. I just watched the show. She was on.
I mean, she had some work. She has some work on that. She still look good though. I mean, she had to because, you know, like the aging thing, I mean, she didn't work out.
You like 60, right? But she looked good for age though. But that kind of gets us into. 61.
She looks good for 61 though. She looks good for 61. Like, she was on the, um, Capote and the versus the Swans on FX. She was one of the people, like one of the stars on the show.
And I was like, I mean, she did some shit to her face, but she looked good. I mean, go ahead on it. We got the money. Fuck it.
But, um, let's go into music then. So it is also Black Music Month. I've been participating in the, um, in the Black Music Month challenge, which is always a favorite time of mine. In the man's health, Black man's health.
It is. Everybody means. Yes, everybody means. Okay.
But it's Black. Yeah. Now I'm going to be like, why do we have to share? I'm not going to be a matter of what.
No, no. They do have a Black man's. month, probably later than a year. Yeah.
Go ahead and finish my music. Now. It's not in January. Is that February, Rev?
You think that's all the Blacks. I mean, I didn't know if they tried to do. You know what they do? It was, it was all they'll be with the rest of the shit.
You know, knock it out. But, um, it is Black Music Month. Black Music Month has literally been a thing since the, since the Carter administration, where they've had the first celebration of Black music specifically. So, I mean, you know, there's different ways that folks have been celebrating it.
I know NPR does Black Music Month, uh, Tiny Desk concerts, which have been, I've enjoyed them so far. I think I had a Shatterkine recently at Tim's who I also enjoy. I really like that. Who posted the Philharmonics thing?
One of y'all posted it. That's just great. I don't know if I had anything to do with Black Music Month, but they look like a Black group mostly. Yeah, that should be awesome.
But they also have like the challenges where you like kind of have the prompts every day and you provide some example of music of Black Music that fit some sort of mold. But I wanted to get y'all's thoughts. Like, what is your Mount Rushmore of Black artists? Like the four essential artists that you need in your life?
Because I didn't want to go into songs that could get complicated. But if we go, look at the artist level, I was interested in what, like, who you're top for? Any genre? Any genre.
I mean, Black Music, obviously, but any genre. But what's your Mount Rushmore of Black artists? How do we define Black Music? Is it any music by a Black person or?
I'm talking about Black artists specifically, so. I'm going to go see you. I'm going to go across any genre. I'm going to go Stevie Wonder.
Okay. I got a couple more of you on the thing. No, no, no, no. I'm going to say Michael Jackson.
Yeah. Frankie Beverly. Okay. Quincy Jones.
Yeah, Quincy Jones. I had an affordable, oh, I was probably supposed to be. Can Luther? Yeah, absolutely.
Luther. Okay. Yeah. Luther.
Michael Jackson. Tupac. Mariah Carey. I'm going to get a rapper in there somewhere, but I can't.
So, you know, I had a little to leave out. It was tossable to Mariah Carey and Whitney. Like, the female vocalist to me is Black Music. You know what I'm saying?
Like, you can't like, I mean, 90s R&B is as great as the male vocalist are. It was carried by the female vocalist. Like, it really was. Also, I don't know, I know, I know, I know.
I know that this is a really good video, but I put it in like a Quincy Jones challenge to get like, X-ray for your catalogs. That's why I did it. I did. I had Quincy Jones.
That's why I did it. That's, that's definitely. You did. I mean, you, didn't do that?
Yeah, but I, I know that's why I didn't do that. Chibi, janitorialists, right? You didn't do that. I definitely did Quincy Jones because he covers, he also covers so he did Quincy Jones did classical, Quincy Jones did jazz and he did modern R&B.
So I felt like he covers a lot of the, of the different sounds. I also have Prince because Prince is He was so what collected he was a he was a singer and a songwriter and instrumentalist so I had to have him I put a reason Franklin because I read the Franklin's everybody's mom in a sense So and she represents to me the gospel piece, but she was also a prolific pop artist You know saying so we have like a nigga wall in my house or we have like nigga Representation and one of the bigger pictures we have is a read the Franklin because I think she's important and then we I have Jay Z I don't like Jay Z anymore Because he became a billionaire and lost his soul But I will say that from her from a hip-hop perspective He had been around long enough longer than everyone and has had the most prolific career and has done things with hip-hop And no one else has done so I had a reason So can we take the crutches off for a minute I mean we're kind of living in a realm that we've all lived in before Let's give the four but it has to be post 1995 hmm we get Michael and Quincy and Stevie and Luther who gives a fuck we do this 1995 Mary Jay Blige Just cuz I feel like she has her first four albums I could just probably let ride And we do groups Can I see outcast Earlier Mary Jay outcast They're male vocalist I was 1995 But you can't put our kid you can't I mean you can't I'm a can I mean why would you mean cuz I'll tell you had that run where he wasn't just Doing our Kelly shit. He was in his production bag Our Kelly had a Big a lot big a lot of man by fucking Longer man with a jam. I There's going to be a resurgence of our Kelly honored efforts, right?
So yeah, it's gonna be probably ten years from now Whatever the tiktok is ten years from now. They're gonna be like his catalog is too strong and too good for like some white kid I'm like have you ever heard of our Kelly and then you know that should be a big arc in the resurgence Okay, I'm listening to my colony. Do you think you think like a DJ is gonna break it It's unlike you think right now is not the researchers and I have to get people don't want to be the first one to break I know I think no, I think that is gonna be one of I think it's gonna be a white kid So I'm like some young white dude on who has 20 million followers is gonna be like Thanks and a kitchen by the mother-roams The kitchen what else does he have and then play you know that you go come out and we're gonna be like Oh, yeah, I'm gonna be a little bit about Jerry What is it? Jerry Lewis?
That nigga great ball fire and he like married his 10 year old cousin and all that shit But it's so far removed and I didn't get put back and but I'm just saying like some shit once it's so far moved like time Live up and it's not gonna be anything to them. We'd be like well He was gonna piss on little girls and all this other shit. Okay, this is slaps. It's all gonna be part of the storm I think it's gonna die honestly.
I'm not gonna die like next week I think he's gonna die before his time is up and it's gonna be like damn well It's gonna be a relittigation. Yeah, our Kelly's dead and then we're gonna start going back through the music There's gonna be another R Kelly whatever and so like damn like this motherfucker contributed the buck to the music Was read and buck thing ever done in music and it was kind of awesome Honestly, I got that first time I ever started thinking pretty pretty late. Hey, did you ever speak since we're in black music? Did y'all realize that the 69 boys will probably 69 boys?
What you mean? Yeah? No, nigga, that's a freaky ass name I just thought about it like maybe a month ago like these niggas names were like a 69 boys like at the time Yeah, it's like Head on stage I never thought about the number like that the 69 boys is a freak ass name like it never crossed my mind like oh fuck That's a freaky ass name like we just called it the 69 boys like I don't know that's a favorite number some shit not like That was it one day when I was a kid whenever I was a black boy I'm like hot and she actually came on the radio with him. He was like, yeah, so I'm so the 69 boys Oh my god, that's so bugging.
I'm like what's wrong with it? She's like you're a teller. You owe to him. She's that was how she said and I was like I Am I a lot?
I mean they had sex with six men girls or something like it didn't bring no but I I Knew it. I knew it but I didn't know it I Section now because 69 not even a jokey sort of like running thing anymore like when I was like when I was in college club Name was business man 69 like I was like oh, I'm a little nasty Not Put these instead of essence to move nasty house tripping It's it's in the shower sex category. It's not the most You're not getting live bang for your book No, I think I've done that because it'll be like I feel like the water fucks up the Water the dimensions the dimensions like I'm not Don't like you I Believe 90s to current big anything anything JD did what did you watch it? Met him late 90s sound a lot.
He also did a lot of that snap music shit. He's stayed relevant in several decades I Can't think We knew you know that he was a producer whatever but then always after the fact you found a bad day on the day on the day on They be that like even Rico way like on that gender family documentary night. What if I know I know he did that which I don't Get your clothes in the You know, so wow, but they do definitely like the sound right I would think you put a lot of southern artists on the on the current list because the south's influence on music even I mean I mean if it is I guess it really is just Mary J Blige who is the other R&B artists Who's been kind of transcendent throughout multiple decades post 1995 Mariah went to the 2000s To JD right yeah, yeah I can't put Beyonce I don't know I guess I would say Beyonce because of her influence But I think you already know I feel about Beyonce, but I think you definitely got to put Beyonce up there I mean she it's her and nobody else from a female vocalist and not at all. Yeah But there is no male vocalist I could think of that's really been that nigga post 1995 like oh sure oh sure Sure, you write you write that's it.
Okay. That's a good list. So so this music month challenge you're doing one of the day was They were talking about what song would you like to light on fire and send straight to hell or something like that? And I feel like you put return of the back was actually did you do that?
I hate return of the man I knew that about me. I was but They're still hated songs like there's more hated songs in return of the back room Like a lontro like either Love me I found myself here I have no other reason I like it They use this later down place and then I'm like never should I be bad But I mean even if it is cilantro to you it's still not shit. Oh, she's still not shit. You know I'm saying like there are I would Girl is on fire new New York and the wobble.
I put New York on there because Alicia Keys after I Hate to be on that side after Alicia Keys got cursed by Shonda Swiss beats ex-wife like her music fell off because that first lease keys album slaps Good songs, but bad song The worst song ever created in black The same artist Brows pop champagne and a rabbit a nigga. Oh, no, I agree That nigga that nigga never came back though popular that summer Oh Those are the love those are the love dream years and I was post-graduation I believe so See I graduated after your heart was bullshitting But I remember that time and that wasn't a good time Like that was in between time between like the cool club era and snap music era where they was kind of doing anything Oh, yeah, I guess I don't think six Chris Brown's important I don't think so I think it's because mature Chris Brown the original album doesn't sound like Chris Brown now Not when the original album came up, but you said all the music sounds the same I'm just saying Like it's not as popish it was super popish when you first come on it's not super pop any disgusting Super nasty But I mean Chris Brown gives us bangers though Like it definitely definitely a throw up anger in a 60 album. I mean 60 song album. You're volume shooter man I maybe have a shit now and it's a shot.
That's what I think it's a big name like three So I'm like because it's on cuz the albums have 60 songs. I just be listening No, you're right. I'm not gonna be like oh man number 17 was really a slap now I'm going together sensational All right, I think it's after a week to back you down Take you down Yeah, but still No, I just listen to that long ass motherfucker Shit man and just tells it and I didn't listen to it again. I just listen to it What is a fucking second drink it what's that song?
I thought I don't know that No, what's the song that starts out second fucking drinking or something like that? But everybody got it wrong and that's not what they said. It's like a fucking drinking That's what I don't like it into something like that. It's like everybody was singing the first part of the song wrong Yeah, I don't know what to do But I think it's been good.
I leave it now. No guidance go crazy But if I think about it even even the list that we put out there's nothing relevant in the past 10 years There's nobody a fit that would that was that would stand out in the past 10 years I found the song everybody was saying a fucking robot lesson. But it's really rub it and touch it Call under the influence I Know I mean he said the fuck I don't get it twisted. No, he is but it would have been a different sort of thing.
He would been like Probably retired now You would be like a billionaire you'd be on a different trajectory if you didn't happen I mean think about all the things around a billionaire's like round a billionaire like that's what it would be wrong Because of you think I don't sell But he could have you would bustle Chris Brown shoe No, they were sweet shoes. I would have got shoes. I wanted to ugly ass That Carter so I mean I mean shows right now No, I don't want to burn me looks The free wells actually have spin is on what you have to say is on the We'll go down the data Yeah. That's awful.
Speaking of basketball, and then we'll close. Rest in peace to Jerry West. He passed today at the ripe old age of 86. Jerry West was integral part of the NBA.
He was the logo. His image inspired the logo for the NBA. He was multiple all-star with the Lakers, one exactly the year, multiple times as a GM. Even up to his death was still advising the Golden State Warriors and other teams on how to build out a team and things like that.
Rest in peace, Sam. Rest in peace. What was it from 2.0? Oh, shit.
It was a brother Marquise. I'm making that up. That was Marquise. That's what Luke called him.
That's not what the name. Oh, no. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Brother Marquise. Man. Who do I make it from New York? Right.
Just New York. I mean, maybe that's where he was going. That's okay. Shout out to them on Miami Hurricane.
God of the Jackets. Yeah. He died. He was 57 years old.
That is super young. But that's what we keep on saying, man. Back to me and tell them to care yourself. You think they could come out with like a modern day 2-laff group?
Like to combat all the sexy reds? Nope. No. No.
Ever out of it, really. I think we're in a bigger enemy too. Yeah. No man.
We're in a bigger league. Something like that. How do you go left of these niggas? Like, I mean, like, like, in order for a new 2-laff group to work, you have to go left of an L.E.
Chopper or something. You'd have to be grosser and more misogynistic. No, I think you just have to hit the most out of me. But I mean, they hit the femininity button.
You know what I'm saying? I think you just get just as wrong. But, you know. They were fucking on stage.
I think it's like, I didn't even rap about it like that. You know, they're gonna be in the game. They don't like it the same. We were having that conversation.
I was having a conversation with my wife. At least I'm about how, um, I don't know. I don't know. We can't force dating on our dares because niggas don't really get on the pictures like that.
And I was like, yeah. See what happens. You know, the weird statement, first of all. Never mind.
But yeah, I think that would work if I was a, I hate on the label. Like, come on, let's get five, three niggas out of Florida. Boy, Lam, that's a top shit. I think it wouldn't be hard to find the niggas, but it doesn't matter if they consume their music and be like, oh, this is fine.
I think so. It works with the pictures on your shit. I mean, I was a toxic time, but I think I know fun and fun was gonna have fun. I will say everything's cyclical.
I'll speak with them. Yeah. That's a piece for the monkeys. And the logo.

Now, for the with all the respects. With all the respect, a lot has been discussed this week. I don't know why this has been going on for like a week or two about Caitlyn Clark in the Olympics. A lot going on back and forth about that she deserved to be on the Olympic team, does she not deserve to be on the Olympic team?
Did she deserve it? Is she one of the top 12 players in the WNBA? So on and so forth. It's been going back and forth for definitely this week, right?
I've been engaged in a couple of discussions about it. But my point is less about Caitlyn Clark because I have my thoughts about it. I have my thoughts about it. I have their thoughts about it.
My point is really about people have to learn how to debate and argue. Right? Most people that want to discuss Caitlyn Clark commented from the angle of some sort of strong man or some sort of red herring where it's like conservative white people think, because some of white people like Caitlyn Clark. And then there's the rest of us, right?
And it sets up an argument where anybody, because there are people who support Caitlyn Clark or just think it might have been a good idea for her to be on the Olympic team, that might not be Republicans or might not be right. I just think it might have been cool if Caitlyn Clark was on the Olympic team. I have arguments in a way where you have to either choose to support Caitlyn Clark or support their view or whatever or you support right wing Republicans, right? It's just weird how we set up these arguments.
It was the same thing that we did with whoever made it out of the baby was. I saw a lot of that in that conversation too. Like, oh, well, you know, conservative white people want him to succeed so much that's why they're playing it so much. This is my opinion.
And it's like, it might just be a good song. It might just be a catchy song. And I support it. And I want to hear it.
Why do we have to juxtapose this person, me and David, from Williamsburg, sing in this song and the Republican Party, right? We have to be able to have an argument about these things not so much because it needs to, because somebody needs to be right and somebody needs to be wrong, but these sort of discussions are important and they're thoughtful for our community, right? To understand each other's thoughts, understand each other's ideas, exchange these sort of things. But when we create these sort of red herrings and these sort of straw mens, it kind of short circuits the argument, right?
We don't really get to discuss things because it's like, if you don't agree with what I say, you're automatically labeled this negative thing, whether that's right wing, whether that's conservative, whether that's Republican, right? And then we can't ever discuss it. And a lot of people, in a lot of discussions, it skips past Caitlyn Clark, it skips past the Olympics, it skips past that she, is it cool for her to be on it and to go straight to these crackers. You know what I'm saying?
And if we're in an argument, I can't have an argument with you or debate with you on these crackers because I'm not them crackers. You know what I'm saying? Like that's not the point of view that I'm coming from. I have thoughts about it and I want to share my thoughts, but if those two sides are going to be, I agree with you, or I end up in some sort of box with some sort of category that's negative, we can't have any sort of thought for debate or exchange of ideas.
So just a thought, man, like when you're out here arguing, it doesn't necessarily always have to be, I need to win or I need to lose. Just exchange your ideas on why you think that way or why you don't think that way and leave the racism and the politics out of it because you might get some thought for responses on what another human being thinks without respect. With all due respect, I watched bad boys for last weekend and what a time. Usually because everyone knows I don't, I guess the narrative is on like things.
I'm highly critical of the things I can do in music, television shows, unless it's to be, and my movie. So when I watched it, I was like hyping it up saying I was like 10 out of 10. It's a great movie. You're really going to enjoy it.
It's like one of the better bad movies of the franchise. And I was like, you know, who knows? I don't get to go to the movie theater as much as I used to mostly because there's just really not a lot of product that's being put out. It's been kind of, you know, it's been kind of touching go as far as like how movies are being distributed between theaters or streaming.
So when I went to the movie theater and actually got to have a movie theater experience and watch the movie, I loved everything about it. I will say actually being in a movie theater probably had a lot to do with it just because that's just a great feeling to be in a theater kind of nice seat at some popcorn, a little liquor and just kind of vibe or whatever. But in general, the movie was great. The movie theater was full and bad boys for made about $104 million globally in his first week, which surpassed analysts expectations around.
They expected around 36 million for the opening weekend. They've already made a profit on the movie. So this is great. You know, for the franchise, it's great for Will Smith, who I guess critics said he was not going to ever recover from the slap apple some bullshit because they're covered because they're supporting each other.
But the other thing I gathered from it is the people who watched the movie were primarily black and brown folks. That's what the numbers came, like fleshed out to as far as like, especially domestically, which begs to me, I'm like, why don't we see more black movies? We don't see it. I don't see enough black content in terms of like larger scale movies.
Like I saw the movie American fiction. Now, it's only like small independent theaters. I don't really see it in any major, like I see AMC or Regal. But it's still one like Oscars and got nominated for awards and things like that.
But in general, there's just not a lot of opportunities for black creatives, black actors to really shine on the big screen. I know all that shit usually is cyclical. Like we'll see it in ebbs and flows, but we're in a shortage at this point. So I feel like there's opportunities to get us back into theaters and join the movie watching experience.
But I think these studios need to be mindful of that and start looking for more opportunities for black folks to shine and get consumption by black and we goers with all to respect. I'm not sure that's right. I'm not sure that's right. If I didn't already, my son graduated high school recently, a couple of weeks back and the speaker says something that was simple to me, very profound.
They were encouraging the students. They were talking about the rigors, you know, their academic journey up to this point. They were saying that they should relax and begin to believe in yourself again. And I got into that in the heart because sometimes we get caught up in the hospital and bustle.
You always trying to get a deadline. You always on to the next task. Like you always come to the emotion and you know, we get bogged down with something because you're trying to do 12 different things before you got on the phone. I was telling the story about how I was rushing today and ended up like burning my hand.
And you know, you did everything. Nothing going right, whatever. But I was like, that's something good and something I'm going to try to like, you know, take in and take the heart. So relax and begin to believe in yourself again.
Without respect. Without respect. The scammers are out here scamming. They fucking asked, oh, you heard me.
Just a couple of different incidents. A friend of mine that a friend of hers got a couple of businesses. The electric company was the electric company. But whoever hit her up and was like, hey, you didn't like when all this, this and this.
