Oh yeah, his.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Name is with the Why and so that's what we're
going through. That's what I'm going through today. And so
I know a lot of people have been reaching out
to me because I found out while I was recording
lip service.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
When my father called me.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
So, you know, we're in the middle of planning his
funeral and getting all of that together. This is my
first time planning a funeral and clearly this was unexpected
to a lot of things are not planned out, but
you know, so that's what's.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
Going on with me.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
And so today I'm also having a good friend of
mine on, Tracy Adams. She's an executive at Epic Records,
and we're going to be paying it forward with a
good deed courtesy of Tracy. So, you know, a lot
of things today are about turning pain into purpose and the.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
People to even be up here, and I think you
being here can help other people that are probably going
through something real similar.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Yeah, so there's a lot of things that I'm learning
to about planning and you know also but we'll discuss it.
We'll discuss it throughout the show. But I just wanted
to give our way up family at just an update
on what was going on. You know, it's a difficult time.
My family was leaving to go on a cruise on
Sunday for a week.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
My parents.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
They canceled their cruise obviously, so we'll be planning those
things out.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
So if I'm a little off the grid. That's what's
happening here.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
For anybody else who's going through something, you know, I
sympathize because it's it's just difficult.

Speaker 3 (03:29):
So when we come back, we're.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Gonna do the show as usual yet and I'm also
going to give you guys some lessons from what I've
learned also throughout this process. It's way up, they saying
the rooms from Industry shade to all of gos ap out,
sending that Angela's feeling that eye all right, his way
up at Angela. Ye, I'm here with beatots good and

(03:51):
let's get into some yet. So you saw the video
of t I without his hat on, and then his
DJ told him to put a hat on, and then
it went viral because it looks like there were some
bald spots right well. T I recently addressed what was
really going on. He was on with a young Jack
in the Streets morning take Over. Here is what he said.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
It's comedy, I laughed, will rull be funny? Is if
it was true? You know, I ain't even move spoil
it to I just took my head off and walked around.
That's not my head of hair.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
Came well, so it's photoshopped.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
I didn't know how to be a hatfish.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
But see if it's photoshop, it makes you question why
then was he told to put a hat on?

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Right?

Speaker 3 (04:33):
Or maybe I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Maybe listen, there's a lot of AI things happening, a
lot of photoshop things happening. There's a lot of things
I see online that I think are real.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
Right, But even if it is real, there's nothing a
trip to Turkey can't fix.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Okay, that's a fact. A little vacation, vacation, all right. Now,
let's talk about Rick Russ's daughter, toy Roberts. She says
that he needs to slow down and he needs to
act his age.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
Basically, here's what she had to say, that he is
older and acts like he mother. I love his life,
but I'm telling night, just slow down. When is you
gonna stop? Because if I'm twenty four, that means you
knocking on the mother's.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
Grounder.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
Now you're grounded, go to your room now.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Another thing that Rick Ross is talking about in his book,
because you know he has a new book coming out,
it's called a Renaissance of a Boss Notes from a
Creative Reawakening. He talks about a twenty twenty two incident
where he suffered a seizure while on the plane. Remember
that when that happened, the plane had to have an
emergency landing so he could get medical attention. Well, he
says he was in the middle of a psychedelic experience

(05:39):
after taking shrooms wow when this occurred. He said he
was far from physically or mentally grounded at the time,
and he said he recalls watching Will Smith's movie Emancipation
during the flight, but he said the movie itself had
nothing to do with what happened, Wasn't that? And so, yes,
he's had a history of Caesar's that he's been very

(06:00):
open about in his memoirs as well.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
And his music as well. He's talked about it all.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Right, So hopefully he's able to, you know, make sure
that again you know how important your health is. Definitely
all right, Well, that is your Yet when we come back,
we have about last night, and so, like I said
in the opening of the show, has said that my
brother recently passed away, and I want to talk about
some of the things that I've learned during this process
of This is the first time I've ever had to

(06:26):
plan a funeral. You know, working with my parents and
making that happen. I'm an only child now, so you
know it's my older brother. He was fifty one years old.
But I just want to give some lessons that I've
learned during this time.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
All Right, it's way up this night.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
So about last night, Yes, I went down.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
All right, his way up with Angela. Hey, I'm here
with Beatats good job. I told you I've been a
little out of you know. So it's right now. My
brother passed away unexpectedly from an aneurysm. So just a
few things I wanted to talk about it what I
learned during this process because he's the closest person to me,
he's my only brother.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
So what happened is he's very active.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
In our group text like our family chat every day.
He's a person that if you call him, he's gonna answer.
If you text him, he answers right back.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
And so for a.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Day he wasn't responding, and so my mother felt like
something was off. So she has the keys to his house,
so she went over there and you know, he was
on the floor.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
So after that she called the police.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
And so here's some things that during this process I
learned because the fire department came, EMT came. Then they
were supposed to contact the police department to come, but
something happened and I guess they didn't.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
There was also an accident.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Nearby in the neighborhood, so it was taking a while
for anyone to come, but they did, and then we
had to wait for the medical examiner to come now
because he was home alone and when he fell, he
hit his face, so he did have like a bruise
and he had a bump on his head. They had
to make sure that it wasn't a Hama side, which
means that everybody has to leave the area, and then

(08:04):
until they examined the body, you're not allowed to go
back in.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
So you know that all happened.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
They examined him and that's when we found out it
was an aneurysm. He had been saying he had really
bad headaches a couple of days before that. They were
so bad he had to take three advil. He was
laying down, and so Coach Jesse, who works with me
a lot, she also recently had an aneurysm and was
in the hospital. And when you feel like pain like
that and it feels out of the ordinary, it is

(08:30):
important to see a doctor because again, like you never
know what could happen. But it's also not something I
would have thought either, Like I've had headaches before and
I don't get them a lot, and so I don't
know that I would have. I probably would have did
what he did. Take some advil and go and lay
down bana or something. Right, you try to do whatever
and get hydrated orin plenty of water. And so, you know,

(08:51):
I just want people to make sure that they take
those things. And I'm not saying that that it could
you know, it could have still happened, or it could
not have. I don't really know, but you know, I
just want to make sure that we're taking care of
ourselves in our health. And then now dealing with Okay,
where's the funeral going to be? And there were a
lot of questions because clearly it's unexpected. It's fifty one
years old young, and so they're like, does he want

(09:14):
to be cremated? Does he want We never even discussed that,
so that's not something but I feel like if somebody
wanted to be cremated, they express that, yeah, And so
I was like, I don't think, you know, we should
do that, because I don't know that he wanted that.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
I know you and your brother are really close, and
you know that you have a lot of memories. Where
are some that stick out to you?

Speaker 2 (09:33):
You New Year's Eve? Because New Year's is coming.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
Up, your brother got me drawn.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
But rather also he was very into like medical marijuana
and all of that. So he would make like organic rice,
crispy trees and candies and things like that, and you know,
it was a good feeling any it.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Was h Yes, I always say, yeo, whe's your brother.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah, everybody like, where's your brother?

Speaker 2 (09:58):
But you know, it's safe, like I think with him,
it's not like you're you know, he would actually really
literally make like the best candies and treats and everything.
And you know, my brother was always like he's a
way smarter person than I am and also just super
extremely generous with everybody.

Speaker 3 (10:14):
And so everybody loves my brother.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
So I know there's a lot of people hitting me
up and I'm trying to respond as I can, but
it's a lot. But we are planning the funeral, we're
planning the wakes, so for any of his friends also,
I want to make sure and I'm gonna post this
if you can send any pictures to book Angela Yee
at gmail dot com and.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
I'll post that.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
You know, for people, I would love to include it
in like a slideshow that we're going to be showing there.
So you know, I just wanted to acknowledge that and
also encourage people I even think about, like for myself,
I have, you know, making sure you know whose power
of attorney, making sure that people know what it is
that you want to happen, having a will, all of

(10:55):
those things that we discussed, because you do never know
when something's gonna happen. That's why I've tried to make
sure I get my things in order, but this had
made me feel really like urgently to do that.

Speaker 4 (11:05):
It's always difficult to have those conversations with people while
they're still here.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
Right, but then you know, if God forbid something happens.
It's nice when things are in place, but you never
expected at that young age. All right, Well, when we
come back, we are paying it forward. Today, my friend
Tracy Adams is going to be joining us. She was
supposed to get married, things did not work out, and
she has an amazing beautiful and she's very fly.

Speaker 3 (11:30):
Our wedding dress and so oh you did. We're going
to talk about that too.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
We're going to pay it forward and we'll tell you
how it's way up you.

Speaker 2 (11:40):

It's all about giving. And I have a great friend
of mine here with me today, Tracy Adams A. Tracy, Hi,
Now this is a little different. You actually have a
bit of a story right that we want to tell.
Just you were suppose to get married, Yes, didn't happen.

(12:02):
Did not happen, But you already bought a dress.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
Yes, okay, so just give us a little bit of listen,
life happens. It's just that simple. But I did buy
a dress.

Speaker 6 (12:11):
I was engaged, and tis to season to give, love
and receive.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
We had a conversation, yes, and you were like, you
know what, I don't want to sell this dress.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
I really want to give it to somebody that could
use it.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
This is strictly a good deed, so that something that
didn't work out for you can be amazing for somebody else.
Also want to get it out the house. That's part
And so I alway something had to happen. Now, just
to give y'all some information about Tracy. She is known
as the fly stylish person, and so you already know
this wedding dress is amazing. So I was like, show
it to me. It's a beautiful wedding dress. Now I

(12:45):
pulled us some stats. Okay, when it comes to wedding dresses,
the average cost of a wedding dress is nineteen hundred
to twenty two hundred dollars, And I know that's a
big deal.

Speaker 3 (12:55):
And for somebody who's getting married and the budget, you know, if.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
You can get that taken off the table, that part
that's huge. And you have a video of the dress,
but tell us a little bit about it.

Speaker 6 (13:06):
I'm into pearls, jewels, like little diamond esque situations. And
it's definitely a poofy dress. It's a princess dress. It's
off to shoulders, it's cream off. It's not white white,
but it's cream. Needed a train, not an extremely long train,
but there's definitely a train.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
But it's a beautiful wedding dress. It's steady. I'm not
gonna lie.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
I thought about maybe I should just go on ahead
and get married, because it's.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Just listen at that part.

I think it's gonna make somebody so happy, beautiful memories,

In this interview Kay Sanat, we were told not to

opens up about that viral BT Awards moment that happened.

Speaker 7 (15:45):
I did play the celebrity game with the week day before,

Speaker 1 (15:50):
That's the thing.

Speaker 7 (15:50):
Yeah, I feel like he was doing like two days ago. Okay, Look,
I was upset for like five days in a row.
So when he's talking about mental health at the Stream Awards.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
I'm like, you get it now. I mean that made
me look crazy, bro like.

Speaker 7 (16:01):
But I think the way that people saw it is like, yo,
you that's what they acting like I did. And I'm like, yo,
I'm just saying, you made me look crazy.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
Five days is a lot.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Yeah, Like you know how to but you know, just
to flash back in case you don't remember this audio
or the video of Kai Sanat not recognizing Wile on
his while he was on his stream, here's what happened.

Speaker 5 (16:26):
Wally.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
Oh my god, that was somebody crazy.

Speaker 3 (16:28):
The whole chat knows him.

Speaker 8 (16:30):
What does he do?

Speaker 1 (16:31):

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Oh what?

Speaker 1 (16:33):
Oh my gosh. You gotta get a you gotta get
a some wi Fi for Christmas.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
But you know the real thing is that you spent
all that time with him. Yeah, and it's like, dang,
you didn't really have.

Speaker 3 (16:46):
A good memory, all right.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Another thing that he talked about, and you know, walle solange.
Of course, rumors that they did. I thought they did date.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
I thought I thought that was public knowledge.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
Here's what he said.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Lotus fly bomb in the room was all it's about.
You know, No, we was real good friends.

Speaker 7 (17:03):
I was still very very very like underground, right, and
she put me onto a lot of stuff like back then,
like it was just cool. Like she put me on
the like Jivan she and she put me on the
victim Ralph flower bomb. And that's how that the opening
lines go. But it ain't about nobody.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
Like.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Okay, shark, okay, look, okay, whatever you want to say.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
What else?

Speaker 9 (17:29):
Now?

Speaker 2 (17:30):
Somebody who I really admire as a comedian, Roy Wood Junior.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
I think he deserved.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
I mean, he does get recognition, but I honestly feel
like he's underrated. He's definitely underrated. Well, his CNN holiday
special has.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
A new air date. It was postponed.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
It was supposed to air December fourteenth, but then there's
a lot of things that happened, the Brown University shooting,
the Hanuka celebration one, and so that is now going
to air on Saturday, December twentieth. Then it features the
US Air Force band and that's going to air at
eight pm.

Speaker 3 (18:00):
I'll definitely be tuning into that.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
So shout out to him and make sure you take
out a specially read his book like he's you know,
I think he's so talented. All Right, when we come back,
we have under the radar, the stories that are not
necessarily headline stories. They're flying under the radar. Let's talk
about Donald Trump. He recently and his speech talked about
the economy, a lot of different things. You know, he's

(18:22):
got some new paintings hanging up in the White House
with plaques.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
Do you co sign that to?

Speaker 1 (18:26):
Bye? I can't get jiggy with that.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
Awful what's wrong with this guy? All Right, it's way up.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
News. This in the news that relates to you. These
stories are flying under the radar, all.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
Right, it's way up with Angela. Yee, I'm here with beat.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
Good job, I'm here.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
And let's get into some under the radar stories. This
is not really under the radar, but Donald Trump never
heard of him, had a speech yesterday and during that speech,
what do you think he did? It was an eighteen
minute address from the White House. Okay, what do you
think he did?

Speaker 1 (18:57):
Put out some numbers, some fake news.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
One thing he did he gave out he's calling a
Warrior dividend oney seven hundred seventy six dollars that would
go to nearly one point five million military service members
in honor of the nation's founding almost two hundred and
fifty years ago.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
He said, the Czechs are already on the way.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
In addition to that, he talks about the economy, and
he is basically blaming the previous administration.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
Here's what he said.

Speaker 9 (19:26):
When I took office, inflation was the worst in forty
eight years, and some would say in the history of
our country, which caused prices to be higher than ever before,
making life unaffordable. Our border was open, and because of this,
our country.

Speaker 5 (19:41):
Was being invaded by an army of twenty five million people,
many who came from prisons and jails, mental institutions, and
insane asylums.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
You gotta love Trumps, No, we don't.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
We don't have to.

Speaker 4 (19:53):
It's like that affertive Action math that Foxy Brown was
spitting on NAA's album, just like we get these numbers
from all right.

Speaker 2 (19:59):
Well, in addition to that, he claims that he's fixed
a lot of these things. Here's what he said over.

Speaker 5 (20:04):
The past eleven months, we have brought more positive change
to Washington than any administration in American history. And after
just one year, we have achieved more than anyone could
have imagined. I am bringing those high prices down and
bringing them down very fast. The price of eggs is
down eighty two percent since March, and everything else is

(20:26):
falling rapidly. And it's not done yet.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
It's about checking account well not according to ABC News,
is fact checking either, by the way. So I'm looking
at everything that he said on here and what was
true and what wasn't. Yeah, So anyway, that is you
under the radar. Now we do have the way of
mix at the top of the hour. Oh yeah, Plus
we got asking and of course we got some more

(20:52):
ut for you. Thing's going on, man, there's a lot
going on.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
Listen.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
I'm looking at all these interviews Cedric the Entertainer recently,
so you know what we'll talk about. Cool, it's way up,
I know, you got some things you want to say
about Billboard.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Also, of course you want to tea how she came
here to receipts. It's time to.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
Speel like y t all right, it's way up at Angela. Yee,
I'm here, beat out here. Good job, beat us, right,
and let's get into some yet. So with Khalifa is
facing a potential nine month prison sentence in Romania.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
But yeah, I can't imagine that this is going to happen.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
But it's for weed, and this is from an incident
that happened in July of twenty twenty four. He was
smoking and the drug laws are strict there, so it
could be a legal battle. Now. He previously was fined
about seven hundred dollars. They are going to appeal this.
But my solution is just don't go back to Romania.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Yeah that's my legal advice too.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
Yeah, that would just be my advice. I mean, but
handle it, you know what I'm saying, Like, handle it.
Appeal if they decide not to, just don't go back there.
Maybe not all right, Tony Yayo and Uncle Murder are
going to be doing their own podcast now, The Report Podcasts.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
Anymore.

Speaker 2 (22:03):
Listen, you know we're at the time now also where
people are rappers are the best storytellers, and so it
seems like it's working right, and so they're gonna bring,
you know, just different funny stories, their own perspectives.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
And the way that they said it happened.

Speaker 2 (22:19):
They were in Germany and he said, we see Fat
Joe and was just kicking it. Joe was telling us
he was actually thinking of starting a podcast with him
and ya yo, and that's when Fat Joe said, you
know what, that's crazy, and he said, that's how Joe
and Jadakis started doing it.

Speaker 3 (22:34):
And then they said, you know what, why not?

Speaker 2 (22:36):
And this is the perfect time because we're all waiting
to hear what this wrap up is going to sound
like this year.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Uncle Murder Antonio are two of the funniest guys in
the game.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
So that's talk of New York, Yes for a reason,
and they're going to get themselves in a lot of trouble.

Speaker 3 (22:49):
I could already tell you that all right now.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
Dallas Austin recently was telling a story about something that
happened to him and this was crazy to me. He
was on expeditiously and he talks about his wildest studio
session here's what he said.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Working in a steel Macy. She's sitting next again and
she sticks her head in my pants. What wheezes me?
And then go ooh nice and then take your hand
back out of my pants. What I was like, Damn,
I don't know how to feel right now.

Speaker 8 (23:18):
What I feel a little bit of a at the
same time, I feel a little.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
Bit violated, so I try remix.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
He was taking about Macy Gray, FYI, that's wilds because
if that is not a reverse, it's stilling me too.
It don't matter, me too, could be men against women,
women against men, men on men, women on it doesn't matter.
You're not supposed to do things like that at all.
And he said, like you said, he did feel violated.
It's not even funny, all right. Gilbert Irainis was recently

(23:45):
on Drop the Low podcast and he talked about his
child support plus all the other things that he paid
for after breaking up with Laura Govan.

Speaker 3 (23:56):
Here's what he said, during my.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
Bad the number was two forty four, So two hundred
and forty four dollars a month.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
That's for three children.

Speaker 7 (24:05):
It was four and then I paid for school, and
then I paid for the house, and then I paid
for nanny.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
So it was like, what is the two forty four
four WHOA, well you have Asian. Let's do it the mass.

Speaker 3 (24:14):
That's amazing.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
That's two point nine million a year.

Speaker 3 (24:18):
Oh you did the mass.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
I did it for you.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
That's a lot of money, man.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
That is a lot of money.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
What he was discussing how you know how it varies
state by state and some places it's based off of
how much you make. So if you're a billionaire but
you're not working and not making money, then it's a
lower number.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
I did needs two hundred and forty four thousand dollars
a year.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Think for yourself. When I was a kid, I would
have you know, I needed that, right. I didn't get
it all right? And Billboard has announced a major rule
change that could shake up sales when it comes to
hip hop, and you know they're implementing that one album
unit will now be equivalent to twenty five hundred ad
supported a one thousand paid subscription streams generated by songs

(25:02):
from an album. Now, I know you saw that YouTube
is no longer going to report their numbers.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
Yeah, so it's it's all confused.

Speaker 4 (25:10):
It's like that Donald Trump math man like, what how
much does a sale cost?

Speaker 1 (25:15):
Like at this point, well, what is it? What's it worth?

Speaker 3 (25:17):
I don't know? But YouTube is not going to share
their data anymore.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
And the reason why le Or Cohen doesn't like that
is because I guess what he's saying is that Billboard
just made paid streaming services worth more than free ones
when it comes to how many sale, how much you
get for sales?

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Right, it's just hard.

Speaker 4 (25:36):
It's just weird how people are tallying up record sales
and things of that nature these days.

Speaker 3 (25:40):
Does people care about it?

Speaker 1 (25:41):
I don't think they care.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
I mean share they do. If I was an artist,
I would care.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
Yeah, as a fan, like I don't know what my
favorite record.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
They're talking about twenty one Savage and his numbers for
the first week, but it's also like it was a
surprise album. Yeah, and it's been critically acclaim but it's
also how do we report these numbers?

Speaker 3 (25:57):
Now?

Speaker 2 (25:57):
All right, well that is your ut and when we back,
we have asked yee eight hundred and two ninety two
fifty one fifty. Now let t hear somebody who should
have made beat us Top ten list of twenty twenty five.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
Here's g Herbo went.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
Legit relationship for career advice, Angela's dropping facts shoul you
should know if this.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Is a SD what's up this way? Up at Angela
Gyee is me and beat at Joda? You get a
good relationship advice?

Speaker 1 (26:19):
You think I do my best?

Speaker 3 (26:20):
All right? Well, we have Matt on the line and.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
He is trying to figure out how to deal with
his wife. They've only been married a month and they've
both cheated on each other.

Speaker 8 (26:31):
I'm trying to find out now the best way.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
That he'll move forward.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
So you want to make it work.

Speaker 8 (26:36):
I do want to make it work. I do want
to make it.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
Does she want to make it work?

Speaker 1 (26:39):
That's important?

Speaker 9 (26:40):
She does?

Speaker 8 (26:40):
She does.

Speaker 2 (26:41):
So Basically, you guys started on a foundation of not
even trusting each other thinking their marriage.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
Who's going to fix that?

Speaker 1 (26:47):
Right?

Speaker 3 (26:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (26:47):
Because usually people are supposed to get married when things
are going really great.

Speaker 3 (26:51):
When they're not.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
You know, but I understand because a lot of people
do that. What steps have you guys made to try
to make it work.

Speaker 8 (26:58):
We've been in counseling, therapy and just trying to the
best way to communicate and you know, make make the
marriage work. Now, because now it seems like we're not
just fighting for a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship, we're trying
to save a marriage.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
Now, all of a sudden, what is your counselor saying?
And do you feel like that's helping?

Speaker 8 (27:15):
I do think it's help and that she's really just
trying to help us communicate with each other and figure
out how to build up on that friendship.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
All right, Well, I think counseling is an important for
a step, but I also want to point out this is.

Speaker 3 (27:26):
Not like a quick fix.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
So you guys also have to be really patient with
each other and also know that it's going to take
a lot of work and it's going to be painful sometimes.
If you guys, you know, does she bring up a
lot the fact that you teat it a lot?

Speaker 3 (27:40):
And do you bring it up a lot?

Speaker 9 (27:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (27:42):
Yes, it's almost like almost a constant conversation. And that's
what it's so hard about. It is like it's hard
to live in that hurt all the time. You know,
It's like you think about just leaving and thinking that'll
make you happy instead of trying to go the hard route.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
And well maybe all the time.

Speaker 2 (27:56):
So maybe you guys have a rule about not bringing
it up. And I understand that there's going to be
times because we talk about communication that it bothered you.
But at a certain point it becomes more of your
problem than the other person's problem when you keep on
bringing up the same things and that you already know
the answers to and things that you've discussed and overly discussed.
Now the focus should be on how are we moving

(28:17):
forward and not even bringing that up, because the more
you bring it up, you're just making yourself angry over
and over again. Do you have now rules moving forward
of what you can and can't do, and also communicating
on what you need to make this work.

Speaker 3 (28:29):
This is what I need you to do, and her
telling you what she needs you to do.

Speaker 8 (28:33):
Gotcha, Yeah that makes sense. That makes a lot of sense.

Speaker 3 (28:35):
Yeah, like I need this, I need that, you know.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
And a lot of times they will tell you do
not use the words always and never in describe like
you always do this, You never do that. You have
to say, well, it makes me feel this way when
you do this, you know, it's a lot about how
certain things make you feel.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
But also taking into.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
Consideration something you might not think is important that she
thinks is important, you know, trying to be understanding as
you're trying to get understanding, and I think it's important
to not have discussions.

Speaker 3 (29:03):
While you're mad.

Speaker 8 (29:04):
Yeah that makes sense.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
But I'm really hoping that things work out with you guys.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
You know, plan those date nights, do special things, and remember,
don't argue to be right all the time.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
Sometimes it's for understanding.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
Yeah, I heard that. Thank you?

Speaker 3 (29:19):
All right, Well, good luck. I hope it works out.

Speaker 1 (29:21):

Speaker 3 (29:39):

Speaker 1 (29:41):
Yeah, Hey, you don't want to know my name? Way
up with Angela?

Speaker 4 (29:44):
Ye? Turn me on.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
What's up as way up at Angela?

Speaker 9 (29:47):
Yee.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
Now you know I've been a little out of it,
so I'm cashing up on some things.

Speaker 3 (29:50):
Be that.

Speaker 2 (29:51):
Yes, I'm twenty one savage in future, have made amends
now I saw that article.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
I didn't even realize.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
They were beefing like that in Atlanta Civil War.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
And you know twenty one Sabotag has been trying to
get everybody to fix their beef.

Speaker 3 (30:04):
Right. He wants Gunna and young Thug. He added them.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
He said, you knew Gunna wasn't no gangster when he
told the first time, and we swept it under the
rug for you. You know, he wasn't trying to leave
you to hang f the streets. We ain't got ish
but trauma from that ish. It's kind of like a
backhanded comment. Gunn is probably like, whoa what are you okay?
He also told a little baby you wanted the realist,
young and where's out this ish ADMD Slim was moving

(30:28):
the goalposts and we were standing behind him because we
love him, my brother. And then he also told Quavo
on offset he said, tell the world, I put you
all on group text and told your squash it before
it even got fired. If y'all were still together, y'all
would be unstoppable.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
It was twenty one on the nineteen forty one, Like
will was he drinking or something?

Speaker 2 (30:45):
Listen, he's telling everybody what to do but him in Future.
You know, Future said the biggest in this, and then
twenty one said the biggest change all the time, and
then twenty one said the realist in it. And then
he apologized and they got on FaceTime together. Actually behind
the scenes, I guess Big Bank worked it out for
them to talk.

Speaker 1 (31:03):
They shouldn't like lead with that maybe.

Speaker 3 (31:05):
But here's the thing.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
I was asking you, why were Future and twenty one
Savage beefing?

Speaker 3 (31:09):
And we and then I had.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
To ask chat GPT, and chat GPT came through. This
is all because of metro Booman metro booming. Yeah, so
I don't know if they were beefing. According to chat GPT,
it seems more like, you know, there was more of
a because there was this falling.

Speaker 1 (31:25):
Out, people taking sides.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Yeah, Futures closely tied to Young Thug and twenty one
Savage was close to metro.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
Booman, who fell out with Young Thug.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
And because Metro was twenty one's main producer that it
caused a little bit of a split.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Where's Mona Scott when you need it?

Speaker 3 (31:40):
This is the word loving?

Speaker 1 (31:41):
All right?

Speaker 3 (31:42):
Well, just glad.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
It feels like at least they made up and got
on the phone. Now everyone else can get on the phone. Clearly,
Peace on earth, good world toward men, Atlanta.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
We need that all right.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Well, you guys when we come back, this is your show.
So you have the last word if you want to
call up and make up with somebody, We welcome that
to to way up, to hack up.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
The phone to get your voice heard.

Speaker 3 (32:04):
What the word is? He's the last word on way
up with Angela. Ye, what's up his way up?

Speaker 2 (32:09):
But Angela, yee, I'm here, beat outs here, did job
beat done?

Speaker 1 (32:12):
Man?

Speaker 2 (32:12):
I was gonna go see Hell's Kitchen tonight. You know,
Neo starts in Hell's kitchen. But I'm gonna go a
litter later date because obviously I'm going through a lot
right now dealing with my brother.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
I gotta go.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
It's so many things, like we got to clean out
his apartment. We got to figure out how to cancel
like all his subscriptions. I have to return his lease
his car for and you have to get a depth
certificate in order to do that. Yeah, so you have
to order like multiple depth certificates. So we ordered twenty
of them just to have them on hand in case
we needed for anything.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
I already spoke to his landlord.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
It's like a lot of details, yeah, that we have
to figure out. But I'm donating like a lot of
his clothes and stuff like that, so, you know, just
dealing with that. But my parents are being released are
They're at my house so they've been staying with me
now so we can get all this done together.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
You know, what are you doing today the end of
the day.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
You know what I have to do is in important.
You're just thinking about you and send in love of
condolences to your family. And you know your brother was
well loved. You know, he was a favorite person of mine.
Every time I saw you, always asked about him, and yeah,
just sending you healing energy right now.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
You know, I always think about like how people will
remember you. So I love how people are remembering my boss,
and I think that's a great positive thing because we
don't see some people die and people were like, yeah, some.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
People throw a party.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
All right, Well, you guys, this is your show, so
you have the last word.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
When heart goes out to you, Angela and your family.
I know that you'll get through this because you're such
a strong woman and I'm just praying for you. I
Pray comfort for you, your mom and your dad, and
your whole entire family.

Speaker 6 (33:46):
My condolences go out for all of you.
