Speaker 1 (00:00):
Oh yeah, screw the True. Yeah, things on this screwing room,
looking at Big bo Gee, Trouble muck Bung and this
scrim snake. Yeah, it's screw the True.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
I just said, it's scroll for true all right.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
When you're like me and you're brave out there on
the Internet scrolling so your friends don't have to, I'm
finding some of the most amazing things that the Internet
has to offer on social media. Now, the problem with
some of that is it's often in a time warp.
I can't tell you, like when I found uh, Charles
the King, Charles the Doll, I don't know if that's
(00:47):
from the.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Early two thousands or if that was from last week. Great, fine, though,
thank you. You just never know. It's it's it's uh.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
It's not an exact science like that, because it's it
takes a lot of work to then go research where
all this crap comes from. But there is something that
has been showing up on my timeline a lot over
the last couple of years, and it's one of the
worst rap battles I've ever seen. Now I've done some
research on it, and I'm still not certain if any
of this is accurate. This might be from the twenty tens.
(01:18):
It's all I know is this. There is a woman
and she's freestyle rat battling, and what that used to mean.
Freestyle would mean you had to come up with something
off the top of your head. It was totally impromptu.
Nowadays people called things freestyles, and they're just wrapping written
lyrics over instrumentals and maybe throwing in a little freestyle.
But this is where it's a battle. It's toe to toe.
(01:41):
You're supposed to be coming up with zingers off the
top of your head, and she's coming up with stuff.
They're just not quite zinging. And so how many of
these cuts do we have?
Speaker 2 (01:51):
I have four of them? All right? We have four
different cuts from this is this?
Speaker 4 (01:55):
When you discover this is it video, so you can
see what these people look like. Oh yeah, okay, give
us a description of who we're looking at here.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
She looks like a pretty standard white girl brunette.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Jeannine Garoffalo.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Interesting, maybe how old is je Garoffelo? It's maybe twenty
or something twenty five, something like that, somewhere in that
twenty five to thirty five range. Oh yeah, that's okay,
I see what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
It's my guess. It's hard to tell you. Welcome.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Now, let's listen to four pieces of her battling in
freestyle rap and just get a vibe for what she's
throwing down.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
Now that's for you, missy. I don't know you from
a hole in the wall, so your Facebook profile is
all I had to go on. So I'll start clicking
on some pictures, and this is what I can across.
You letting your kids sit PEPSI out of a cant
What is you thinking? Tell me, do you really want her.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
To grow up to be just as peppy as you?
Speaker 5 (02:47):
Stephanie left to marry some fifty year old man. And
then when I thought I'd seen it all, I start
scrolling a little further on down you walk another picture.
You letting your kid go to town on Peppsi. You
have a bottle? Come on, now, that's just irresponsible to
forget a stress test. She'll have heavy breathing just leaving
the nest. Now, I didn't come here to be a dick.
(03:09):
I just wanted to ruffle some feathers and shuffle the deck. So,
just out of respect, I didn't bring the pictures, but
for future reference, you should take that down. Now. I
understand this is your first battle rap. So let's see
if you up for the task. Because if you check
my Facebook, you probably use my own statuses against me.
But I say, you too lazy for that.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
That was really tough, really good spoken words stuff here.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Then yeah, it's really bad. And she's doing all the mannerism.
She's like pointing at the person she's battling and acting
like she's landing these haymakers and she's not.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
But there's more something else. I think this is the
person she's battling here on this one, I think something else.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
Let me tell you what the way I was brought up,
I was taught not to take something unless you bought it.
So when you stepping up on the spot and you're
taking something hot, don't get cut or you get cut?
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Cut, cut, what's weirdness. There's a bunch of guys just
standing around foss bro.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
He said, she went, or you'll get cut, and then
she went into cut like cut the scene.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Okay, so this feels like and I don't know, again,
we're in a time warp. Didn't There used to be
an MTV show where they had randos like this sort
of thing.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Maybe, Yeah, I think it's probably from that. It's like
it's not the production value.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
No, But I'm just saying like that makes people like
Janine Garoffalo here feel like, oh, yeah, I'm gonna do
what I just saw on Wilden Out.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Yeah, here's the short one.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
I uppercut some of these mother cutting the mustard talking
about how I got no instruction. Neither did DNA before
they discovered the double helix.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Oh that's nice. You know, we were in a better
place before people posted. Everything was better place.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
You know what, she needs an editor, if she had someone,
you know, kind of gatekeeping her content.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I feel like we could only get the best of
her an advisor, you know, maybe don't do this. Here's
a bad one. Last one that's freaking awesome, not dumb.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
Now, when Tanner found out that Shannon couldn't come, he
asked me to come here in Tanya raft and I
said I'd do it. I figured I'd step up and
be the bigger man. But this looks like a step
down and Shinnon's futsy. I think I thought this true enough.
But you know what they say, behind every hate, it
is a piece of truth, and I have to agree
(05:36):
because some random guy Facebook me saying you're a horrible wrapper,
but you're sort of cute.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
That's true.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Now, back in my battle with Chin, I'm more or
less older of fat ass. And it's not only that
I told her exactly what to do to fix it.
I said, do some rents, the next climb up with
flight of steps, et cetera. And if she had only listened,
maybe she wouldn't be at homes. My mind is bloom.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
This sounds like a teacher reading to a class of
fifth grade. She's just talking really fast.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Yeah, it's so painful, it's so painful.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
So there you have it, the worst battle wrapper of
all time. No idea where it's from you? On account
that was on that you sent to me? What Cringe Boulevard, boulevard?
There's always good stuff on Cringe Boulevard? All right?
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Coming up next in just over three minutes, is the
Mica deal now imminent? And are the Mavericks about to
extend somebody? All that's coming away in just over three
minutes and around the sports
Oh yeah, screw the True. Yeah, things on this screwing room,
looking at Big bo Gee, Trouble muck Bung and this
scrim snake. Yeah, it's screw the True.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
What is it?
