he soon finds himself in a crosshairs of a corrupt
Dean park operator, a shady shadow, and a blood Thursday
crime boss. I have to say, dear my home brother.

not very good at golf.

Speaker 9 (05:52):
Hi, honey? How are you?

Speaker 2 (05:54):
I am not good as you, but I tell you
what this is interesting. I was thinking about this the
other day. I think you posted what we were demming
he other, and I think the thing that is interesting
is that we we have seen you in every incarnation.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
I'm telling it, every everything.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
We saw you when they had BAITA before they had
Beta v c R that shot, and they had we
see You when they had CDs, and then we see
when they stream.

Speaker 9 (06:20):
Oh well, thank you, thank you. I mean, God is
certainly good. And I'm grateful because that means that people
want to see Mayas and still supporting. So I'm grateful,
you know, to to everybody that's always watching, because when
they don't watch, they don't keep it on the air.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
That's the truth.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
So you you're having a good time because I saw
Wanda like shortly after the oscars, I see Mike. I
haven't got a chance to see you and I and
I've seen a couple of episodes of the Upshaws, but
it does seem like, yeah, I'm telling you, I've seen
a couple.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
But specials just.

Speaker 9 (06:58):
Play.

Speaker 3 (06:59):
I'm trying your ahead, and you all seem to be
having such a wonderful time.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
And it's really weird because Netflix doesn't pick up stuff
that's doing really well, like you can't even tell if
they're gonna pick something up. But they picked you guys
up early, so it says a lot about the the
the tride that you've hit. And I think a lot
of that is because you guys just look like you
having fun. It's a funny show.

Speaker 9 (07:21):
Well we are having fun. It is funny as hell.
Our writer's room is fired, you know, and you know
what it takes to have a funny ass show.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
If there was one piece of advice that you got
from the beginning of your career so know that it
served you, well, what would it be.

Speaker 9 (07:38):
Oh, well, you know mom. And so Mom has given
me so many nuggets over my career. But early on
when I first started doing facts, and she said, maybe
you start at one hundred percent and everything that you
stay and do can either keep you there or chip
away at that. And that has really helped me too

(07:58):
many When.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
Your mother's name of chips the truth, right, but it's.

Speaker 9 (08:08):
The truth, you know. And then when I went to audition,
my very first audition actually in this butter Or Syrup,
I was very intimidated and terrified because I saw Janet there.
I remember back in the day we had the Jackson
Specials of some specials, and so she was already a
star even before Good Times, and so I saw her
and I just thought, oh my god, I don't belong here.
I just want to go home. I shouldn't be here.

(08:30):
And Mom took me to the bathroom and she says, listen,
you're in your own head, You're in your own way.
Don't let anything or anybody intimidate you, especially your own mind.
She said, that girl is in there doing nothing. You
were doing this to you. You're in You're allowing your
mind to to to intimidate you like that, and that's
just not the case. Always do your best and be

(08:51):
your be yourself, and that.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
Is how you go from the fact. That's how you
go from black and white TV streaming Jack, don't let.

Speaker 9 (09:00):
Nobody it's not on black and white.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
Well, I tell you what I tell you what is true.
I did see your ass on that little TV on
top of the TV. I know that that's for real,
one for picture, one for color.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
And doctors say you have the best chance of a
long life if you maintain a healthy weight.

Speaker 10 (10:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
Now, see, doctors will tell you that.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
You know, if you go to the doctor, they'll say
if you're overweight or you need to lose weight, right.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
They'll say that, right.

Speaker 5 (10:48):
Well, they'll say that, but they need a new metric
to me because every time I go to my doctor
who says I'm according to the charts, right, I would
be obese.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
But I think a lot of that is your head though,
I swear.

Yeah, a lot of people saying, you don't want to
hear this bro. A lot of people saying one told
him stay away from them young girls because she was
allegedly nineteen years old.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
They can't Walliams interview. That would be great.

Speaker 2 (11:24):

and he lets him stay in the parking lot with that?

You know what you could do? You could write the
tram around this and that that's very nice. Have you
seen that?

Speaker 2 (11:37):
Have you been on the tram around this that you
tired by the time you get back to your other car?

Speaker 3 (11:41):
There you go, Well, you know, son, you know it's
a small world. It's the smaller world for you. Let

Speaker 3 (12:53):

Speaker 2 (12:55):
How many decades would you say you had relevant music

Speaker 3 (13:18):
It's interesting how are you.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
I know, obviously you've seen more things have more success,
But are you Do you think you're just as passionate
about your music and just as hungry as you was
as an artist, when you just as nervous and excited
when a new project comes, the project comes out of you.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Just do you feel pretty much the same way?

Speaker 11 (13:36):

Speaker 3 (14:15):
You know, so you just open the liquor stores what
you just did.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
So it's interesting to have done all the things you've
done and still find other ways to be creative. I mean,
because you know, make making spirits requires some level of
craftsmanship to right.

Speaker 4 (14:39):
Well, yeah, you know the name of the brandy is contagious.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Hey, man, I'm glad you waited to lefter COVID was

and they would have set up so you could buy
the ice to the soda.

text and drive, don't argue and drive, don't drink and drive.
Look over, they just do that. It's everywhere show.

Speaker 5 (16:04):
A new study found dangerous doses melatonin and CBD found
and gummy sold for sleep. Researchers found that eighty eight
percent of those gummies were inaccurately labeled, and one product
contained as much as three hundred and fifty percent more
melatonin than they actually listed. They say the use of
this is concerning because parents might purchase these gummies to
give to their children.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
It's flintstole vitamin made me high here.

Speaker 5 (16:30):
Because I've watched this about every vampire movie let's come out,
so I knew you don't invite the man.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
The weird part is that vampires, they have a very
like women. Think they're sexist, they're romantic.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
That's how they lure you in.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
Yeah, so you he bites you your neck, you eternally did,
and you think they're sexy?

Speaker 4 (16:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (16:47):
Yeah, yeah, I give you your name check base. You
want to break up with me, that's great. You want
to blood bank of crambages which want that he should
not be financially responsible.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
That was ugly. Do you agree with his wheezing?

Speaker 10 (17:02):
Are you okay?

Speaker 3 (17:04):
I don't know what's the wheezing? Then I couldn't stop it.
We knew you meant reasonably. I couldn't pull it together.

Speaker 6 (17:22):
I heard from some of my people in Philly and
they were still telling us why some of the Philadelphia
Eagles did not attend the White House celebration. Jalen said
he had an ingrown hair. Been bothering them all the time,
you know, the helmet be pressings.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
He had to get that out. He said he had
to get his car was wasts so and it's gonna
rain later on. Yeah, kids, Goldfish died. He had had
a little goldfish funeral.

Speaker 5 (17:45):
Yeah, that's important here, that's hurt.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
I don't want to go. A friend of the show
is on the phone. Please put your hands together for Tank.
What's that the baby boy?

Speaker 4 (17:57):
What up?

Speaker 1 (17:57):
D L?

Speaker 10 (17:58):
What's the word?

Speaker 7 (17:59):
Baby?

Speaker 3 (17:59):
I can't call it? I I sport. I got to
tell you.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
I saw you on Drink Champs and you said some
of the most poignant when you talked about they don't
hate us, how the world doesn't hate us. They hate
us for I love and I thought that was one
of the most poignant things out But you should have
made a song out of that.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
What you should have done? I guess No, this is
there's still time. No it ain't because this is your
last album.

Speaker 4 (18:23):
This is your last one.

Speaker 3 (18:23):
So whatever you didn't get on this one.

Speaker 10 (18:26):
Well you can't limit me DL. This is what the
album process, the album process as we know it. Her
tank is over, but still making music. You know that
that's still on the table.

Speaker 3 (18:36):
You know, Because here's the thing.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
This is, so I watch you for a long time
when you can obviously tell the something you love, are
you really going to be telling me right now that
you're going to be able to just say I'm done
with this, I'm not gonna do it anymore.

Speaker 10 (18:50):
Yeah, Because, like the album process for me is such
a lengthy one, and then the tour to go along
with it such a lengthy one. And it's like, you know,
with you know, with the thing I went through am
still going through, with losing my hearing and the first
and all these things. It just kind of put time
in a different perspective for me. Like we think we
have all the time in the world, right, get all

(19:12):
of the goals and all of the things that we
desire to do to get them done, and all actuality
we don't like, we really got to be on the
ball about creating a realistic schedule and getting to these things,
these other things that are just as important, you know
what I mean, Grabbing other R and B singers, songwriters
and producers, and building a strong label, building platforms, more

(19:35):
platforms that R and B music can stand on. An
R and B Award show and R and B festival
towards the world, like all of these things, continuing to
build the R and B Money podcast, Like these things
are just as important, if not more than me being
on stage taking my shirt off, you know what I mean.
So we gotta build it out, man, I think that
legacy and putting those things in place are unnecessary, at

(19:57):
least for my genre music.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
What is the songwriting process for you?

Speaker 10 (20:02):
What does it look like?

Speaker 4 (20:04):
Man?

Speaker 10 (20:05):
Bro It's endless.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
I mean, there's no that that won't stop that You're
gonna always talk, yeah, I always, you know.

Speaker 10 (20:12):
I always have a song some wake up. I have
a song about how I just woke up, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
So it's it's that take What about when you write
a song and you go, damn, I haven't sing this one.
What about when that invariably happens, that's you. I can't
imagine that that never happened.

Speaker 10 (20:27):
Well, somebody's in trouble, you know what I mean, somebody,
somebody's gonna be mad.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
I'm taking my shirt off again. Here we go.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
So so no more take albums, but definitely more take projects.
Right that the R and B money that the podcast
is dope, that's doing well, right.

Speaker 10 (20:53):
Yeah, it's doing amazing man, you know, and you know,
it was just a great conversation that needs to be
had by people who actually do it. You know. The
problem with I think, you know, part of the R
and B infrastructure is that there are no R and
bk keepers. You know. Everybody that's that's trying to be
or run the space their lawyers or they're majored in communication.

(21:14):
Like when The Face was doing it. You know what
I'm saying you you you got something special because Babyface
and La Red were actually architects of the music. That's
where they came from. It was in their pedigree. And
in order to I think, you know, preserve it and
do it the right way, you got to have people
who are actually connoisseurs of a thing leading the charge.
And so with the podcast, these guys, you know, these

(21:36):
guys and girls are able to come on our show
and have a different kind of conversation and then be
a different type of vulnerable with the information that they
give because they understand that we understand you know, and
and that, and that crosses over into the label as well.
Like you know, these kids who really want to do
R and B can say, yeah, I want to rock
with R and B money because they get it. They
have artist sensitivities, like they understand where I'm coming from

(21:58):
and I and and I won't lose there because at
least I'll be able to creatively express myself, you know
what I mean. So you know that the spaces have
been great for us.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
Man, I can't tell you how proud of you I'm
for working through this adversity.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
I've always been a huge fan of yours, and I
think that what makes artists great artists if they can
kind of illustrate what they're going through artistically. And I
know this album's reflection that I definitely see it in
your podcast, and it's going to be developed into a
TV show.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
Man We're going to hear from you a lot, man,
and I'm glad you're doing well.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
I'm glad you're doing better, and I'm looking forward to
you doing many several incarnations of Tank.

Speaker 10 (22:36):
Thank you, brother, I appreciate you Man as always, take
care Man, be well.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
Hiight doctor, I having met Hey, Happy holidays. You know
DL and the crew, they're going to be all for
the Christmas holidays. Hey, don't get upset. Even Superman needs
to take a rest every now and then. But don't
worry about it. While DL is gone, you'll hear some
of the funniest moments of the show and we'll just
have a good time. We'll get you through the holidays.
This is how it's going down. Happy Holidays from the D. L.
Hugley Show.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
Now, Gary Monrose kept it and I told this lady
there for it, saying, hey, ma'am, you got some black
stuff on it.

Speaker 5 (23:08):
And it was, but I wiped hers off. This girl
that I worked with in Nashville, she came to work
and she had the ash crossed and I didn't know,
and I took my finger and wiped it up.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
First do it.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
I went to go see Sinners. Yeah, what do you
think it was excellent. Man, I once that one thing
about black people. I don't care what kind of danger
is a foot. We're gonna dance, gonna take the village.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
All right, we gotta get ready. But before we do,
I gonta know how to do the electric slide. We
gonna boogie, man, we gonna boogie, boots on the ground.
Who is the better friend of you? I'm a much
better friend than you. You are lying.

Speaker 5 (23:58):
Everything has to be perfect for you in order for
you to assist or be there. Whereas every single time
you need something, I show up. I was alive making
around those two.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
Anytime you've ever needed something from me?

Speaker 2 (24:11):
Jazz always I said, can you run me down to
see the South? I got to get this test.

Speaker 3 (24:17):
I forgot that just happened. You know, will so bad?
You got to be in because.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
You stop. I'm in.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
One time I had a fight with someone. Dude anymore?

Speaker 5 (24:29):
No, big?

Speaker 3 (24:30):
I was like, how many of them is interview?

Speaker 10 (24:33):
Is you?

Speaker 5 (24:41):
Our next guest is a founding member of Public Enemy?

Speaker 3 (24:45):
There he is? You look so different since you've been
a Hall of Famer. I can't that's that globe, I
would say.

Speaker 12 (24:54):
Earlier, as we were getting to set up to the
battle of the platforms. My face is gonna pop on back.
But but I mean, really, I'm from the analogue century man.
I'd rather be heard than seen. But you know, part
of the job is to be seen, I guess because
people listening with their eyes a little bit too much.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
We're going to get back to that. But I do
want to get back to the fact that you are.
You're Hall of Famer, and I know you may not
have set out to be that way, but it happened.
What does that feel different? Did you kind of know
what was gonna happen along the way or is it
just something you just.

Speaker 3 (25:33):
Then you're matter effective of it.

Speaker 12 (25:35):
I have a weird story, a different story. DL is
like Rick Rubin, which is probably one of the greatest
producers of all time. He's running me down for two
years and tried to give me the new records. So
I came in coming down uncompromised. When I finally agreed
to say, okay, Rick, I'll do records for this new
company you call Death Jam, Improve and Rap against the world.

(25:58):
That it could be looked upon this high art instead
of low art only that was my driving goal.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
So once I agreed to get.

Speaker 4 (26:06):
In it with my guys and my crew.

Speaker 12 (26:09):
Our whole game is to take it to the stage
and take it to the Hall of Fame, to show
that this music is legitimate and not a Baskett music.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Well, you said something before we got a chance to
start talking, and you said you're the most interviewed person
in the rock genre, in the rap genre, and you
said it was for a lot of reasons. Now, every
time I hear somebody seriously having a conversation about hipob
in my memory, I would always know that we're going
to be hearing from you, and that's just kind of
a given. Why do you think it is that you

(26:38):
are kind of look to in regards to that particular
art form.

Speaker 12 (26:43):
To me, I'm the most interviewed person, not as a
bragging thing, but it's a responsibility. I speak for the
art form, I speak for culture, and as I'm trained
and learned from the culture that we've had since the
beginnings of time. So you know, I've done research, I
watched it, I collect and then also when it comes
down to like what people say is a political conversation

(27:04):
or commentary, I've always made sure that rapt to have
a voice in it. If you check out all the
jazz cats back in the early parts of even last
century and all that, they will always catt that watch
and listen, and when they spoke it was really at
cyndiary because they went against the grain.

Speaker 10 (27:22):
I'm pretty much the same.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Okay, did you Okay, you've done it all. Literally, you've
done it all. You've etched your name in the star.
You are in the panthem of greats. So I don't
what is your motivation now to keep doing to keep
making art that is reflective of the time when there's
no I mean, you've kind of already done.

Speaker 12 (27:41):
It, though I don't.

Speaker 4 (27:42):
I don't think so.

Speaker 12 (27:43):
Man, every time I run into Stevie Wonder, I can't
say ish, man, Hey, Stevie Wonder the only dude. Every
time I come up to Stevie Wonder, I ain't got
a damn thing to say. Stevie be like, go ahead,
seek by the power with Chuck.

Speaker 3 (27:56):
You know, so at the age I.

Speaker 12 (27:59):
Am, if I can't teach, I shouldn't even open my
mouth to speak.

Speaker 3 (28:03):
Jeck, thank you for coming on. I appreciate that.

Speaker 9 (28:05):
Man.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
Sometimes people get really upset with me, so they let
me know on our segment called f You Deal. H Lisa,
won't you please welcome my F you Deal? Huglely corresponded,
little little niassy James, this is.

Speaker 11 (28:17):
Nasty, James, you're de husy corresponding. Our first ECHI Deal
Hugely Commit is from Instagram. At the Tighten ninety nine,
says Deale. I heard you talking about how you took
your entire staff to a fancy restaurant. You were talking
about steak, lobster, fine wine, and delicious dessert.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
You made it sound so good.

Speaker 11 (28:38):
The only problem is when you were expounding on your
fine dining experience, I was the seventh car in line
at a funky drive food trying to get two for
one chacos because, like most of the people listening to
your show, that's all I can afford.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
Remember that the.

Speaker 11 (28:54):
Next time you're eating lobster, Hugly. Our next ECHID hugely
comment because from the Diecuge show website, White Chocolate twenty
two says Dale. I love listening to your show when
you hold the establishment accountable, the way you call it racism,
the way you stand up for people against inequality, all

(29:14):
that while still managing to be funny. My problem is
that you are extremely critical of white people. I'm not
talking about white supremist or racist. They deserve to be ostracized.
I'm talking about good, regular white peer. You often say
white people this and white people that, like, we're all racists.
Most of us are good people who want a quality

(29:35):
for all. So let this good white person tell you
something in a way you'll understand what.

You sit around the dinner table and you're remining this
about the older days.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
And as you know, I am from a warrior family.
We were completely different.

I arrived at home. In the first words I othered
was dad is home. I'm Siria.

my parents the bedtime stories of my conquest, and when
I would give them an allowance, they all thanked me
so much. Oh oh, when my older sister lost her virginity,
I found it and gave it back to our I'm sire.
He's about the fact the movie is one battle after another,

a group of ex revolutionaries must reunite when the evil
enemy their services.

They must come together because they must rescue one of
their own daughter. You see Leonardo de Cappuccino and Tiana

ride or the dye cheek. She's riding and a lot
of people are dying because the daughter that was kidnapping

(32:08):

Speaker 3 (32:10):
The movie is filled with action in a lack of blood.

Speaker 7 (32:13):
Leonardo de Cappuccino, He's very good in this film, but
Tiana steals the film.

Speaker 3 (32:20):
She is turning into a good actress. She kicks ass
with her fine ass. I'm Siria.
