thing about it, I had shot one. I was gonna
put it out. I shot it right before the pandemic,
and then it became not relevant anymore. I'm so. I'm
(05:19):
the type of comic that, like, I'm very current. So
you have anything, I mean, if anything coming out, it
has been so very current, like you know, a few
months current. So that's specially. I shot that in December
of like nineteen oh yeah, and then sucking March there's
a whole pandemic over I can't mean, but it's okay.
(05:40):

put that out. You gotta be something later, but I
have to do something on the pandemic. My material right

(06:25):
well part of Jersey, Jersey City, I know, Jersey City
make you feel that drive back. Jersey City is a
nice school. It is right, it's Jersey City is right
before you get over that bridge to New York. It's
like right, there right? Was he close to the Lincoln
(06:46):
or Hollington the world? I always thought it was strange
that they claim Liberty the Statue of Liberty as New York,
but it's really in Jersey. They always say, oh New York,
and oh yeah, it's an award. It's like New Jersey
official New Jersey Warters, Jersey Warter. I didn't know that.

the Statue of Liberties owned by your friends friends from France?
Who Rudy Gilbert's families, They're from France. Run they dropped
it off from France? Did they come from friends Liberty?
I didn't know that it was made. It was created
in France. And the gift to the US, Yeah, motherfucker, yeah,
(07:36):
they owned that, Mike. They might represent it anything they want.
So why was it a gift to like for Americans
the latter man like? What was the gift? Was it
given a gift like a symbol of peace piece after
their revolution and donor our revolution and they helped us.

Let's go, let's just pick five first, no particular order.
Obviously Bernard Boy obviously we're kid. Obviously, David because that's
what everyone talks about. And then the other two that
you think me and myself of course obviously I would.
I would have to say m M from East Africa.
(10:15):

in there, Diamond from Tanzania, you can kill him in there. Yeah,
definitely top Uh we need more, right, Um, Casper and
your vest South Africa. Um, there's millions. Ye, she's huge.

I know I didn't, you know, I don't. I haven't

(10:58):
I didn't know who it was. Okay, it's it's a guy. Yeah,
um you do you understand Swahili barely the state? I
ain't heard that a girl? So have you heard it? Oh?
Keati is dope? Keatie is amazing? How about South Africa?
Who name Casper? Here's a guy, he's a guy, he's
(11:19):
a rapper. I think he's incredible. He's a dope performer.
Is he better than the other guy that did that song?
Re saying he's like that he had that boody hot
song right now. He's vocalistic, vocalistic, way different vibe, way
different vibe, way different. But I mean Casper does he does.
I'm a piano too, but he's a rapper, so he does,
and then he's a I don't know how to explain it. Casper.
(11:40):
Casper has performed on like sold out stadiums on his
own seventy thousand people. Yeah. Everyone I'm mentioning is like
done something pretty pretty? Um? Yeah, all of them? Because
I mean you name those top three, I gotta think
I'd come out of those top three between the video
Whiskid Burnable it you think those are the top three
(12:02):
after beat because they're definitely on the worldwide. I would
have to say that. Then Brennard just got really I
guess when nominated. He went a Grammy that she got
nominated one time and then she would finally wanted. Yeah
he did win it this ship, right he won? He
didn't win, Okay, So between Brenda Boy, David and whist Kid,
(12:22):
those are the top three. I mean, did don't make
a song every hour. He's probably making a song right now.
You know. Brenda Boy I think came from like underground,
and then Bull made his way to the top, and
then whiz Kid has just like I mean, you know,
he has just I mean, right now, let's narrow it down.
Let's just narrow it down. It's down to three, down
(12:43):
to two. So let's let's take DAVIDO out. Okay, alright,
and we're gonna be started the movement. Well, I mean no, well, no, no,
stay out of this one because I don't I don't want,
I don't want all right, so let's let's let's try
to faked. Now. We got the yeah, we got Whiskid
and the body song, right how the song the body,
(13:06):
my body whatever? With the song is with Thames. I'm
gonna going back to what that's the biggest song right now? Honestly,
like that that really is in the song of the moment.
So if you want to talk about what's the biggest
right now, it's Whiski period two years years, last year
it was Berna. Right now, it's Wi. The year before
(13:28):
that it was David because remember David had and then
after that it was Berna because he had Yea and
everything else. And then now it's definitely back to Whisky.
So it'll be interesting to see who's next. But I'm trying.
I'm going back to the big because afrobeaks to me,
you know, especially being introduced to like America. It just
happened in last five years. You had a lot to
(13:49):
do with it too. I mean I've played it and
I showed love to Way. But between Joanna and if
I think those were like those were they were competing, yes, yeah,
you know, because any not right now, if you're going
to any club, any hip hop club, they played Jouanna
no Joanna. If those I think those two songs made
(14:10):
the breakout. Those two songs are probably the most problem
be blew it up. But right now, like this this
new song right now, this new one with Times is
definitely the biggest with whisky. Yeah, definitely, of course. And
it was so hot that of course just got on
the remix and it remixing got on remix. What did
What did you think about the song? The remix with
(14:33):
Justin Do you like his verse? You know, I like it.
I've never I've never really cared about Justin b Well,
I heard it. How do you feel about it? You
like it? Okay? It kind of introduced the a lot
of the other race because Justin gunn in bowl. See,
it just helps the It reminds me of the reggae
(14:56):
back in the nineties. Yeah, that happy vibe. It's a
very peaceful place everything. I mean, I think I think
what it is is like you know a lot of
African music. I don't want to call it like escapism,
but we like we need to escape our problems with music.
We need something to make us dance. We needed something
(15:16):
that we forget about what you're going through and just
come dance. That's the vibe. So that's the reason why
you know, people don't really think about the Africias bestairs.
Even there's a few songs that talk about the struggles
like the one Techno did with the Another Month but
whatever anyway, but I feel like whatever the just like
(15:41):
what Nira did with the with that song, doing that,
that whole thing with Nigerians going right. But even so
it's still up Temple. You'll still be dancing. You'll read
dancing too your that's not political or even if you
go far back, it's like Fella Cutie right, he was
making politically, but you still definitely dance like that. Mike Duhy,
(16:02):
he made one It's called nothing. I was talking about, dick, motherfucker. Mike,
I thought you were talking about. Used to play with
