You're now tuned into another episode of Hip Hop Hoops Podcast. Guys,
check us out on our website. You know the name,
you know what it is, h h hoops dot com.
Check us out there. We got a shout out to
the Title League. Title League is doing some major major things.
The home team, Distant Cousins. They just had shout out
to Tony Allen. He just got his jersey retired. Yes,
(00:45):
the Grindfather. They're out there doing exclusive content out there
with him. Man, Yo, that is incredible for you to
get your jersey retired on an NBA roster.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
We'll talk you gots doing doing the other things. But
I mean Golden State kind of did something like that
with andre Igdala, me and a Google guy, you know
what I mean. So, Tony the Grandfather against his glue guy.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
It's crazy how he invented that terminology, Like he made
that thing up right, so to be going this long
and Memphis is known for that. Yes, that's incredible, Like
they still use it to this day. Yeah, So I
want to ask you a quick question. First thing that
comes to mind when you hear when you hear that
name Tony Allen.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
First thing comes to mind, oh man, when when he
yelled out all defensive, first team defender. You know what
I mean, I believe he got the stop and he
had to let it be known. And back then, like
all right, back before that, you had Ben Wallace really
hanging his hat on defense, on defense. Before that, before
(01:46):
Ben Wallace, you had Dennis Rodman hanging his hat on
defense and rebounding, doing the other things. After those guys
in Tony Allen's era, guys aren't really promoting that. You
know what I mean. You found his lane, He owned
his lane. He was a superstar in that lane, and
now it is his Memphis the organization shout out to
(02:08):
y'all recognizing that, loot to you.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
First team All Defense, first team. That's the first thing
that comes to my mind. First Team All Defense, Tony
Allen is crazy because he was a scorer in college
to Oklahoma State, he was he was a score. So
again coming to the NBA, finding a role for you
and he found that role and he started that role.
Everybody knows who t A is tenacious on defense, Yes,
(02:34):
and that probably comes from that Chicago Man college. Yeah, yeah,
like probably comes to that Chicago you know. So no,
we got to give him a shout out. Man, Tony Allen,
Jersey's retired for the Tony was looking crispy. I've seen
you doing that two step two email a bit doing
that steps. Come on, get out there, baby, Come on. Anyways, Uh,
(03:00):
let's talk about the Toronto Raptors. Let's not not just
Toronto Raptors, because I don't want to make this a
Toronto Raptor thing, right because what if Finest two times
say it's cool when they do it?
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Right, So we have teams that are being investigated right
now for tanking. Brian Winhurst, what do you have to
say about Brian Winhurst for trying to call out the
Toronto Raptors for tanking. He said that Brandon Ingram has
the worst sprain ankle in the history of sprained ankles.
Getsn't played in once. What is your thoughts?
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Listen, listen, I would, I would, I would co sign
that that statement right there. But we are trying to tank, fans,
but we can't tank because we keep getting these wins.
You feel me like I book it like sometimes we
have our starters in the game set the tone cool,
and we'll put in our bench guys to get their experience.
But then we'll leave our bench guys to get the
(03:50):
endgame experience, and then we keep winning. Don't get mad
at us, bro, we ain't. We're trying to tank, Bro,
We are trying to tank, but we just can't. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Mat Shaddle, Cooper flag Man. I hope that
ankle injury heals proper and you make it to the NBA,
you know what I mean. But the NBA, he's no, No,
he's gonna make it. But I hope you make it
(04:11):
on another team, you know what I mean. We don't
need him, We're good. Have you seen our roster on paper?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
We don't need We don't need him at that position.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
We don't.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
I'm not saying. I'm not saying we should go for cool.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Do we need a wing player?
Speaker 1 (04:21):
I'm saying we should go get that guard. Though I'm
rocking with Quickly, Bro, Harper, I don't get Harper.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I'm rocking with Quickly.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
You're rocking with Quickly. Who doesn't play enough basketball? He
hasn't played a lot this year for us. He'll be
always This guy's always hurts. Soon as he got that bag,
he's been hurt. I'm going to co sign that statement.
I'm just saying, next season, if he hurts again, I hope.

We were trying to lose that game. Bro, We got
all the best guys. We did do the second I'm saying,
it was a game, it was supposed to be a
game winner. Though it was supposed to be a game winner,
it just didn't count. But all I'm just saying is
we're trying to to appease fans like you, raptor fans
(06:10):
like you that want us to tank. And I'm like, no,
we don't need a tank, should playing We don't need it?
We need it? Who wouldn't this drafting do we need
other than if we can get if we can get
somebody from maybe top or we can Derek Queen eight
to fifteen, if we get a draft pick, and that's

Derek Queen is out there from Maryland. He's a problem
freshman of the year.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
He's gonna probably go low to he's gonna probably we
could probably get someone like that rebound hell out of
the ball and he can score. They're trying to say
Queen and either of the talks about he's the next joker.
He ain't no next joker. But he's a very nice,
very versatile at the at the center position. That's my boy.

they embraced the small guards. You feel me. They give

Amazing program over there for sure. I just want to
go quicker. This is a little off topic for trainers
out there in Canada. Man. There's a bunch of trainers
out here and they talking about playing overseas, and they
talking about playing in the NBA and D one and
they just they're just lying. Stop stop this, stop this
nonsense and lying the kids just to try to get
the kids so you can train these kids like they're
(16:18):
I'm seeing a bunch of these trainers here, a bunch
of fake trainers in the city, and they acting like
they are like they had this phenomenal career somewhere, but
we can't find it nowhere. You know, they said that
they played five years over here, overseas in Spain, ten
years over here, and trying this lion to these kids
just to get the you know, the kids.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
To line the parents, not even just the parents, just
either the gullible dads and never played basketball there, like
we got to stop the single moms that they're trying
to We gotta we.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Got to normalize I'm calling out, No, we got to
normalize calling out these fake as trainers. We got to
normalize calling out these fake as trainers. And you guys
are not even training these kids properly.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Situational basketball bab training. Get the kids up against the zoom,
you know what I mean, A step back three, a spin,
a spin in the zone, to run into help like
teach teach them situational ship, bro, how to deal with
a zone, because all you guys do is play zone.
If you go, man, what are you gonna do in
(17:16):
a man?
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Bro?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
I'm just saying, Bro, I'm.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Just saying this is this is the worst. This is
the worst thing ever.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
But you know what I mean. But at the end
of the day, to their defense of the quick money
grab man, yeah, it's a quick money grab. So I
can't knock a man's hustle.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
But yeah, anyways, let's talk about Steph Curry, Steph and Curry,
and just to go back quickly, trainers, let's teach our
short guards, especially the short guards, how to shoot. That's
that's important. Short guards need to be able to shoot. Anyway,
Steph Curry three thousand, I mean four thousand three pointers made,
four thousand. First, I want to ask you, well, right now,
(17:53):
here's four four thousand and four to be exact, And
I want to ask you what we will we ever
see another shooter? Well, okay, that's a dumb question because
we'll never see another shooter like this.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Forget that.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
We ain't seen another shoot like Steph Curry, just not.
But I want to ask you, will anybody catch this
record four thousand threes? Yeah, that's the question that you talk.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I mean, the majority of the shots you're taking this threes.
I think, you know, the more shorter guards that come
to the NBA, they're gonna really have to rely on
that trade ball. So to answer your question, I think, yes,
the majority of their field goal attempts will be threes.
You got Trey Young. You got a man from Boston, Pritchard. Pritchard.
(18:43):
I don't think you'll play it. I don't.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
I don't think you'll get I don't. I don't think
you'll you got, you got Fred Van Vliet. I'm just
talking from still there. Got Clay, but Clay Clay's on
his way out, you know what I mean. But I'm
just talking from Thompson Handlers. You know, I mean Jame
Lillard is up there. Dame Lillard is up there for sure. Yes, Yes,
we have twenty eight, twenty one hundred threes.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Right. How long is he going to be in the
league for That's that's the main question.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
The thing is that nobody shoots as much as Curry
though with threes, that's true, Curry will.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Go you know, neat.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Harden, Harden is, he's at thirty one hundred thirty one hundred. Harden,
he's at thirty one hundred, right, But again, I don't see, guys,
it's hardened, all its hardened second all time. Wow, I
didn't realize that James Harden is second all time and
three pointers maybe, and then Ray Allen, Ray Allen is
at twenty nine. Reggie right under that, Reggie Miller is
(19:42):
under Klay Thompson at two thousand, five hundred and sixty.
I think he's like sex right who Reggie right? Reggie
is six, Clay's five, Dame is four, Ray Honest three,
James Harden is two, and Steph currys went, I'm shocked.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
James Harden is freaking number two. And yeah, he's juvenated
since Paul, George, Jeff, he's been doing his damn thing.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
So who do you think has an opportunity to pass this?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Nobody? Do you see any young guys, the young the
young boys. I mean, if Pritrid gets more opportunity, he's
gonna be a problem. He's gonna be letting that thing.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Fly because Steph Curry. How long can Steph Curry play
at this level? It's not really taxing. He doesn't play
that tax on his body where physically I could see
him playing for another six Yeah, he could. He could
play another you know, at least a good another another
five years at least at least Yeah, definitely, And you're
gonna he's a shooter, so he's gonna get He's gonna
probably get five thousand, at least at least forty five hundred.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
He's in a game. But let's let's just stop calling
the man a shooter. We know that already. He's the
best point guard of all time. Who's your fact who? Okay,
before we go there, who is? Who is? Who are
your top.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Top two shooters? Top three shooters in the league right now?
Top three shooters in the league. Steph yea, he's one
so too much. And Dame, damn, you just took both
of the one thousand said. Caught me off guard right there.
He said the two that I was gonna say. Trey
is definitely up there, Damn, Dame, Man, this man stole
(21:14):
my ship. Not mad No, I don't know what to say. Anyways,
we could pick the same ones.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Man.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Anyways, Harden, I didn't even realize I had it stuck
in my brain. I was gonna pick those two, and
then I looked at the list. I was like, damn
Hardens too, What the hell? Okay, I'll go I'll go
James Harden and I'll go Clay stuff Clay when Clay,
when Clay's mind is right, he can still he can
still fire that thing. Yeah, he just But that team
in Dallas, poor Dallas boy, I believe by himself, unheard of. Man,
(21:43):
that's unheard of. That the coach is gonna have to
start suiting up soon. It's just bring it back. Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
But shout out to Steph Curry once again.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Man.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Four thousand, four thousand and four threes made. Uh. This
league this year has been a lot of milestones. You
got Bronz fifty thousand, Steph Curry four thousand.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
What's next? What's next?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
But I want to ask you guys in the comments,
who is your top three shooters today in the league?
Besides Steph Curtis, give me three talked to us in
the comments. I want to talk about the buyout market.
So the buy out market has been has been in
the same thing here. We've seen guys like Ben Simmons. Uh,
(22:29):
We've seen guys like who else has been the buyo
we've seen h Javonte Green, he was waived by the Pelicans.
He signed with the Cavaliers. I'm so confused on that one.
Alex Lynn, you know who's he he was? He was
traded and waived by Washington and signed with the Lakers.
You got Ben Simmons, he was bought out by Brooklyn
and he signed with the Clippers. Probably one of the
(22:50):
most strangest careers we've ever seen, Ben Simmons. You got
Bones Hyland who got traded and waved by the Hawks
and signed with Minnesota, which is like we've seen Bone.
We've seen Bones come up here and just light up,
you know, the ball don't stop. And he is he
even getting minutes in Minnesota. Like he's very strange and
(23:11):
he's very talented. So I'm just I just don't get it.
Something else is off. You got Josh Richards waved by Miami.
He he got mobomb. But the seventh front of this
guy is still like twenty two, twenty three. He can't
stay on the team for nothing. Seven foot guy, he's
been traded and weighed by Utah. Jazz signed with the Pelicans.
Let's see what happens toy and Craig Brother, you gotta
leave you gotta leave me alone, start alone. Yeah, he
(23:34):
was waved by Chicago, signed by Boston. You got Daniel
Theis who's waived by the Pelicans and went the man.
He said, I'm gone, I'm going to euro League. Reggie
Jackson got traded way by Washington. Reggie Man, he was,
he was a promising backup point guard and can't stick.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
PJ.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Tucker.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
We don't know where he is.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
He's somewhere buying sneakers. We don't know where he is.
He's he's traded by the he was traded raptors like
don't come here, don't cross the border to stay stay
and then you know, we wait, he got signed by
the Knicks. Uh and then Christian Woods. You know, I
don't know where he is. He's been. He's just got
waved by the Lakers. But out of these guys in
(24:14):
the biout market, who do you think has the opportunity
to have a great comeback story? Out of all these guys, I'm.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Gonna put my money on bones man. He just needs
the right situation. Like he's opportunity man, like wizards.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Like a.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Like a like a Dallas right now, you know what
I mean, Like, I don't know why Dallas. I don't know.
They might have too much guard. It wouldn't have guards,
you know what I mean? Dallas? They got who at guard?
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Kyrie Hard, but I'm saying playing now, playing now hard.
Brandon Williams, who can't play in a couple of games, Christy.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
You know what I mean? Yeah, they might, they might,
and Picky.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
They can't pick up anyone. That's the problem. They have
to forfeit because they're under the first apron so they're
not allowed to sign anyone now. They ran up the
two way deadline past so they can't pick up any Yeah. Yeah,
and then I think they already used up their call
ups and those guys.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Are Nico should be fired after this, but yeah, who Yeah,
you think bone Thailand would be the guy.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
I think Bone Thailand he had the most upside, you
know what I mean? Like Big is always needed the
serviceable Big. I think I don't know if they're serviceable.
But like Christian Wood wasn't that bad? Would I think
it's more upstairs? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (25:42):
And he had his girlfriend issues with all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Yeah, yeah it was.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Yeah, Yeah, I'm gonna go five. Yeah, I'm gonna go
Christian Wood. If he can get on the right raptors,
pick him up, bring here, you know, just keep his
keep his girlfriend on the other side.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Just don't let it. Don't let us.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
We don't need no distractions. I'm just saying another big
stretch the floor. I think he I think I think
I think he's been been in the the whole lazy.
He's kind of lazy.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
You know, we work over here on the raptors. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
And if you can't get if you can't go off,
who's he He was in Houston? Was he there when
when that coach was there? Or he wasn't there when
UH came? Yeah he was, he was gone before. Okay,
So I don't know. So who's coached him for it?
He hasn't really got that dog as a coach that
might slap the ship out of him.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Detroit to Hoon.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with Christian Woods. I think Christian
Woods has the has the has the most right now.
I think I think he has a chance to have
the biggest comeback story of all these guys have been
bought out so far. Talk to us in the commons.
Out of all these players. We mentioned who do you
think has the biggest comeback? And you know, if we didn't,
if we missed somebody, let us as far as the
(27:01):
buyout market, who do you think has a chance to
have the biggest comeback out of all these guys? Let
us know the comments. Uh last, let's we gotta talk
about you know, our camp, hip Hop Hoops Invitational Camp.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
You know we had, we did it. It was a.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Success, definitely a success. I think our very first camp
it went, it went well. You know the piece that
I love And I'll ask you this, you know, matter
of fact, you go first, what's your biggest takeaway for
this whole the whole weekend? What was that?
Speaker 2 (27:35):
You know? My biggest takeaway was just just having forty
five youths in the building. I'm not talking about kids,
you know what I mean, Because a lot of camps
they say they're servicing youth, but they're servicing kids sprinkling
with some youth. We had forty five high school kids
(27:59):
sprinkling up with middle school kids, but you know what
I mean, and we had them engaged. We interrupted. I
think the goal was just to interrupt idle time eight
hours a day from Monday to Friday. Man, we did
that shit, you know what I mean. So that was
my biggest takeaway man on the court, off the court,
the shout out to all the speakers that came through. Man,
(28:23):
it was the feedback so far that I've been getting
from parents, you know what I mean, has been promising
and brought a tear to my eye because I was like,
I was envision doing something like this, but I was
always working for another organization and stuff, and I never
got a chance to really spread my wings or I did,
and I just let the organization take all the credit
for it. But now I got a chance to do one,
(28:45):
and hopefully we can get more. Man, this was something big.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
That's big. That's big. I'm happy that you said that.
You know, like you said, you were working for other
organizations and now you got your own and you did
it how you want to do it. That's tough.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
That's tough.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
But I love the fact that, you know, the kids
behaved so well. Yeah, you know, you had different neighborhoods
in there. We had Jane and Finch and Rex still
in the same building, and the kids got along so well.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
As the days went by, you just see the cammaraderie Yo.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
They were calling each other's names, they had each other's Instagram,
they had each other's numbers. Yeah, they were just like
just all together under one roof. And I love the
fact that one thing that I loved as well was
like after day two or even day one, people some
of the campers like, oh, can I bring my brother?
Can I bring my friend?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
And I was like, yo, like and then a new
guy was coming in. I think, I think on the list,
it's a seventy eight new like faces stopped by almost
one hundred. Bro seventy eight different faces came by this camp,
which is big. So again, man, I got a shout
out to all the campers that came by. Uh, it
was fun. It was fun. I love the workshops. Game
(30:01):
changers came through. I love your man who came by
all day.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
That was incredible, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
And I loved how Bobby Allen came by and you know,
he was he doesn't normally do these things, and he
came by and blessed us, and he had so much
fun answering questions. A deal of a barber, baby shout
out to a deal Barbie, you know, amazing barber. Uh,
you know, we gotta shout out to Michael Lugs hoops. Sorry,

we got to shout out to Michael, appreciate you for coming.

annual guys check us out man next year, and we
got some more things coming check us out for sure. Yeah,
but yeah, shout out to everybody who participated. Man, uh,
let's get into some hip hop.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Yes, so.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
You had Playboy Cardi dropped his album. Yes, it got
thirty songs on a damn thing, thirty thirty thirty songs.
He didn't go thirty for thirty. The album is called
I Am Music by Playboy Cardiu.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
It did not go thirty for thirty. It didn't even
go twenty for three. What is your thoughts on this album?
What is your thoughts?
Speaker 1 (32:20):
It's not for me.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
It really had from ten to twenty. It picked up,
I'll give you that. But first impression, very gothic, very
heavy metal, heavy metal rap if that's a genre, cool
young boys, they rock with it heavy, you know what
I mean. I guess that's why we have nail polishes
(32:44):
and all that on the fellas and all that. I
get it cool. But there are a few tracks that
stuck out to me. I liked that it was an
evil Jordan. Evil Jordan was good Evil Jordan. Yeah, yeah,
I like that. All the beats. The production was great.
I thought the beats outweighed the lyricism.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
Yes, the beats. The beats carried the actual lyrics.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Sometimes.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
I didn't know what he was saying.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
He just felt like he was.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
You gotta listen, man, you're being nice. You gotta be
on crack to listen to this goddamn album. Bro, Let's
just keep it a hunting. Bro. You gotta be smoking
some serious goddamn crack and you gotta be drinking all
kinds of liquor and getting high. And that's how you're
gonna enjoy this goddamn music. This ship is crazy, bro,
what is this?
Speaker 2 (33:26):
But what stood out to me was Kendrick and his
support of the album.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Yeah three, he got three features. Let's talk about the
features here he got? He do he has more than
one feature on the album. I'll tell you. I'll tell
you this. My favorite song on this album, which is
a really good song, is I'd Rather Live with the Weekend.
But this is a Drake record, Bro. This screams Drake
all over this record. CARDI we can carry this whole
(33:54):
song like Cardi. It just he should have tried to
I know how he changed his voice up. He should have.
He should have just tried to rap normal on this
song and this would have been a banger. Still gonna
do numbers, of course, but that and uh, what is
the what is the other back Door featuring Kendrick Lamar
and jenay Aku? That song is good. The beat, production,
(34:16):
everything is good on that song. So I'm two thirty,
but go ahead, no no, no, no no no.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
And then just I like that that Kendra track. I
think it was called good Credit, Good Credit. Yeah, he
was doing his thing on that. Yeah, I think it's
I think that was the only feature. I mean, that
was the only track that he was featuring on that
he actually carried. Is it mojo jojo? Yah?
Speaker 1 (34:38):
He's on that song too, right.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
But to me was just ad libbing like crazy. I
never knew ken because it was such an ad lib king,
you know. And then the whole fact of going to Atlanta. Yes,
you're looking kind of hypocritical now not looking.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
He is the biggest hypocrite in hip hop? Is Kendrick
Forgin Lamar.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
I've seen some of the comments where people like, well,
he how do you know that Atlanta and have to
call La to come to Atlanta to save a track
or save an album.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
So can we say that, can we say that about Drake?
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Did they not? Did? What's his name?
Speaker 1 (35:10):
Uh? What's the what's the Migos manager? When he said, uh,
you know, they were they were local and they had
that Versace record and they let Drake hear it, and
Drake was like yo, word for word listening to it,
or he was listening to the whole mixtape and he
loved it, and he was like, yo, let me get
on that record and sent it to him. He got
on the record, sent it back to them. They're like,
(35:30):
oh my god. Then he's like, let me drop it
on my platform, Ovo Radio, And what happened after that?
Shit went crazy? So let's stop talking like he is
the He is the biggest hypocrite in hip hop. The
niggas said, you go to Atlanta to get a check balance?
Nigga like that, you ran to Atlanta. Now you see
that Cardi has a Playboy Cardi has a cult following.
(35:51):
He got a bunch of niggas running around here with
freaking you know, no pupils like they got blacknail polished
and all kind of ship looking crazy and he's gonna
do crazy numbers and you tried to steal his shine.
And how he tried to steal his shine is you
knew Cardi gonna do crazy, crazy numbers. But you also
knew if he got on these three features that people
(36:13):
are gonna run to those features and see if he
was this saing who so he knew what he was doing.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
He's such an evil twin.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Now you're an evil twin, nigga. What so you're gonna
co sign this nigga, playboy Cardi, who's a known choking
out his girlfriend and we hear it all the time
that he's not the greatest father. And you said that
Drake is a deadbeat.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Yo.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Listen, Kendrick Lamar, I'm gonna tell you right now, this
nigga right here is a generational hater. This nigga right
here got to be one of the biggest haters. I
don't want to hear that Kanye West. Oh, Kanye West
is a hater. Nigga wasn't saying shit when this nigga,
Kendrick was hating on Drake bro. Nobody had a word
to say. Now, we want to talk about Kanye because
Kanye said I don't want to hear him on Playboy Cardi.
(37:01):
Nobody does let Cardi ride on his own. Nigga, where
are you coming from? This is not even his type
of hip hop, bro. I thought he was a conscious
rapper and a lyricism. This ain't no, This ain't no.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
That's how he sounds on all the records. Nigga.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
That's not your kind of hip hop?
Speaker 2 (37:19):
What is going on here? Man?
Speaker 1 (37:20):
This nigga Kendrick Lamar is a generational friggin hater, bro,
and he made it cool to hate because not everybody.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Hating on the internet. Everybody everybody and it sounds cool.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
How Anyways, I'm two for thirty, bro, That's what I'm
going to say.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
I'll give him like a four for thirty four out
for me, you know what I mean. Other people will
probably say differently, but it's probably four good tries it.
It's just not it for me. Like the beats are crazy,
and Cardi always had crazy beats, right.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
I just think it's too much music, too much of
this and us give us ten to twelve and let's
rock out with that. The head beating listen I'm miss around.
Go to a Cardi shirt and this bob in my
head and he's.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
Coming to Toronto allegedly with the weekend. I don't know
if he's ever going to make it aganda though. Well,
he's had issues, like legal issues. You know how Canada
is with the borders. He's had his own.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Go be cool with the boy. You'll get your cross.
Go be cool with the boy. We can't got that plug, right,
we can go. You gotta go to the boy. He's
gonna get you through. But you can't be on showing
your numbers and showing that you're taking all the spots
and then you want to cover no key up and
you don't do that.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
Don't do that.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
Don't do that anyways. Man, listen, guys, go check it out.
Go check out Cardi. Play by Cardi's album I am music.
This is what that says. It's music. I don't think
this is hip hop. This is some.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
I'm giving it. I'll give it.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
I'll give it a five five.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Five, Like im passing Mark just off the strength of.
Speaker 1 (39:06):
His following, and there's a could following right, and like
niggas is mad when he doesn't drive.
Speaker 2 (39:11):
I really five your weight.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
Yeah, he was teasing this album since like twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
I just I just think it's unfair like he got
taken advantage of by Kendrick Lamar because Kendrick Lamar understands
his following. And we don't want to hear Kendrick Lamar
on a Playboy Cardio album.
Speaker 2 (39:29):
We don't. We don't like.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
Like I've seen so many videos where these guys are like, bro,
I don't want to hear the ship it is.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
He but he but.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
Exactly, but management and them thinking he knows they know
it's the hottest out right now.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
Yeah, they know that.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
Listen, let me jump on this ship.
Speaker 3 (39:51):
Because because Cardi was supposed to have even more big
names on this album too. Apparently he was supposed to
be brown It.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
Drake on it.
Speaker 1 (39:59):
Yeah, I heard heard the Kendrick Lamar blocked it.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
Well, I don't think he did that. He doesn't have
an hour.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Well if card remember Cardi Cardi, Cardi is managed by
Weekends Crew, So there's probably something so over there when
it happens like that, because you know, those guys are
not they're not the best of friends right now right
the weekend He's managed by those guys. Saling those guys
from from the Weekend's crew, right, So I don't think
(40:29):
that's like out of the question. If they're like, yeah,
this old record I heard. It's an old record. I
think it was like a Luther sample or something floating
out there. And I can see them saying, no, it's
not going under. We're not having no Drake shit under.
I can see it happening, especially Who because those guys
managed Future, they manage metro Booming, they managed play but
(40:50):
it's like they managed all Atlanta. This is why everybody
felt like those guys were behind it, this whole Let's
eliminate Drake. Everybody says that the Weekend and those guys
are the ones who put it in the air. Let's
let's do this ship, you know. But their singers, so
they got it, you know. So yeahnest, that's all I got, man.
I'm two for ten, two for thirty. I'll go a
(41:11):
five for thirty, man, five out of ten as well. Okay,
all right, man, So that's it. Anything you got anything else?
Speaker 2 (41:18):
Nah? Man, That's that's it. Man. I mean I'm still
I'm still fatigued from the camp bro me too, you
know what I'm saying. Yeah, But once again, I want
to shout out Tony Allen Man now is huge, huge,
And I like the way the NBA is going. The
teams are going really showcasing and giving the glue guys
their flowers, you know what I mean, because every team,
every winning organization, you need that glue guy man. So yeah,
(41:41):
I'm glad. I'm glad. I like that angle. I like
that angle from some of these NBA teams. Yeah, and yo,

media platforms. Man. You know what I mean. We're doing
it for y'all. Tell a friend to tell a friend, man. Yes,
