(00:00):

smoke, all the smoke and nowyou're hosts A Dub and John John.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back tothe Embrace the turn Up Podcast. I'm

(00:46):
your guy, the poe god,the pod tribal chief. If you will,
they call me a dub. Somepeople just call me dubs. Some
people call me about my government.But if you're not my mama, my
family, or the police, don'tcall me my government. My guess on
the pot. He can call meon my first name, but it would
alarm me. I would know thatsomething was wrong if I ever heard this

(01:07):
gentleman say my first name, becauseI'm not sure of the last time he
actually said it, so I heardhim say my first name, I'd be
freaking out, like, oh shit, shit's about to go down. Of
course, I am talking about myhomie Smiles. We are doing our summer
music series who better to talk aboutmusic than the homie smiles, smiles.
What's good, my brother? What'sgood, my guy? Because in fact,

(01:27):
your name in my phone is noteven your government's phone beautiful. It
just says a dub and then yourlast name, even though like your nickname
is off. You know your initials, but it's a dub, but then
your last name. That's how itshould be, so it should be.

(01:47):
You're just on my phone and smileswhat people call your first name? I
get confused, Like, man,you're talking about smiles. Why don't you
disrespect that man like that? Youain't I know, you think you're cool.
You ain't cool. Ough of himto say his government no know this
man for damn near twenty years oncall him by his government never Yeah,
And after being in Dallas for allthese years, it's really if you're coming

(02:10):
by my nickname, more than likelyyou know me from college or before.
It's it's very few people that actuallylike here in Dallas, that actually called
me, that have met me here. It's very like people on the podcast,
like it's some people that have gottenlike like they just like oh yeah,
smile, oh smiles, smile,yeah, from the podcast. But

(02:31):
if you kind of know me ona regular basis. See, that's very
rare. That's gonna be weird whenI when I start coming down there more
often, and I like, whowhat huh? That's that? Smiles.
We're not calling him nothing else.Come on, stop it stop, let's
stop that. I'm gonna flip thepeople of Dallas to call you, Smiles,
and I'm gonna explain it. I'mgonna throw it all to down and

(02:52):
they gonna get it. They're gonnaunderstand. Anyways, it's music time,
Smiles, summer music. They arehappening. I got a question for you
that's not on the agenda because Ithought of it as I was driving home.
The canceled list canceled. As weknow, some of our favorites have

(03:15):
been been put through the wringer andhave been exposed for their doings, if
you will, over the past,and some of them worse than others.
But you know, you know,there's a spectrum of everything. So smiles.
Who on the canceled lists of musicare you still are you still listening

(03:40):
to? I need to know.We all know who they are, So
just just tell me who are youstill rocking with? That's kind of been
canceled by most of culture. Torylanez okay okay. In fact, in
Detroit for K's wedding, I wasputting my girl onto Chicks Take five,
like the whole whole weekend. Thatwas a project. Man. Yeah,

(04:04):
I was like, Okay, checkthis song out, Like, hey,
this one, this one's a tuolbanger. It was like the fact that
he like sampled all those people thathe actually had as the features. I
was like, this, this projectis amazing. So I definitely say say
him for sure, because yeah,the wedding was the most recent time I
listened to him, and not reallyhim per se, but Puffy like I'm

(04:28):
not getting rid of anything that heproduced, or like he may have had
like a feature on like I wasagain, I'll tell you the other day
I was, I was listening toLudacris guess the first Thing in the Future
remixed with Ludacris and still like samedamn time. So you know, it's
funny you bring up Puff because that'swhat got me thinking about this because I

(04:51):
was listening to Hate Me Now.You know, the famous Nods track where
did he just has some of thegreatest ad libs of all time? He
said you want to hate me,now I hate you too, simple as
that. Die motherfucker die, motherfuckerdied. And one of my favorite lines
is money is power, and Igot millions of thugs on payroll. That's

(05:16):
a bar. Yeah, that's abar. Granted, I don't have like
a shit ton of Diddy in mydesography, a lot of I mean,
I would say most of the songsI have with Diddy on him or just
Diddy in the background talking yeah,But he's somebody where I'm like, yo,
what he did was kind of terrible, not kind of full terrible,

(05:39):
but at the same token, I'mlike, but he's also really just the
person that everybody was telling us hewas like, cause if you look listen
to the old you know, SugeNight interviews from back in the day and
a lot of other people, theywould say, yeah, Diddy just the
same as us. He's actually probablyworse. He just fooled you all by
smiling because he did a semester atHoward, because he put on a suit.

(06:03):
And it always reminds me of thisfamous quote. Is the greatest trick
the devil ever Pool was convincing theworld he don't exist, And I mean
it's kind of what did he didto a degree, he made people convince
people that he was not this terribleperson, you know in the gangster rap
world, when really he was andhe might have been the worst one.

(06:24):
Yeah. Yeah, he showed uslike all those quotable rants and stuff that
we're like, oh, like tryingto motivate us as like no, you
know, you know what, it'skind of crazy. You know what quote
from Diddy like really like sounds crazy. Now. Do you remember the song

(06:45):
last night with him a Keisha Cole? Yeah, the stuff he says at
the end of the song where he'slike, yeah, it'll really be like
that. I like, you know, I heard you pick up your phone.
I was ready to drive over thatmotherfucking burn it down. You're like,
whoa, that sounds way different now, like like, oh, that
must have been when Cassie was thinkingabout Daton Kent Cuttie. You blew up

(07:08):
that nigga's car. You know,you know what type of level of gangster
you gotta be to like know whoyou can call to blow up a niggas
car? Right, Like, I'msure I'm sure both of us if we
dug through our phone, we couldwe could find somebody who's willing to fight
for us, or might even bewilling to do a little bit more,

(07:29):
but blow up a niggas. CarI ain't got that in my contacts.
I don't know about you. Smiles. Yeah, no, I'm sorry.
I don't know if any of mycontexts got that in the context. I
take that back, guy, Iknow somebody in the context. I probably
got that in the context. Buthey, you know what the money with
some of the guys in in ourgroup chat got, you know, shout

(07:49):
out to them with chest niggas.No. I brought that up because I
was just thinking about that the otherday, and like, but then,
you know, there's certain ones likeI can't listen to Robberts music anymore,
except there's one song. Did youknow he wrote the song Life by Casey

(08:11):
and Jojo did not know that wroteand produced it. That is like that
is like top four R and Bsongs from me. I still listen to
that. Hey, I still likeit's the remix to Mission han Fish and
we got lead that one along nowand I'm a flirt. I was never

(08:33):
big on that song anyway, soI was good to leave that one behind.
But yeah, no, like certainones, like, I mean,
but you look for him, I'mnot like intentionally like yeah, going to
any of his albums anymore. Yeah, yeah, I mean then you find
out how much ship he wrote andyou're like, oh ah, well then

(08:54):
you you know, you can findsolace in knowing that he can't read so
he didn't read them contracts and reallyhe not making no money right so and
he's in jail, so you know. And I say that to kind of
like pivot us a little bit.I'm not gonna lie to you. It's

(09:16):
been pretty hard for me to listento Drake songs. Hey me. Some
people were talking about that the otherday. It's like, do you still
listen to Drake songs? In fact, because that episode of I don't know
if this has come out before orafter my episode, but we actually talked
about that. I was like,hey, do you still listen to Drake

(09:37):
songs the same? And I waslike, well, I was like,
I'm not like a super Drake listento her head anyways, as it is
like yes, like every now,and I'm like, oh, let me
put this Drake song on, likebecause you know, hey, you still
come up with a banger, whichyou know, we're gonna get into you
know, the summer listening to allthat later. But I'm not super like,
Hey, I'm about to go listento Drake, so but if a

(09:58):
Drake song comes on im, I'mnot gonna be like turn that off.
But you know, just the songsjust the same, where they just seem
like some songs seem a little bitmore corn like it all sounds way different,
like what was it Worst Behavior?One of my top favorite Drake songs.
It sounds way different when you whenyou start really listening to Kendrick,

(10:24):
like how many more fair tales aboutyour life? Until we had enough?
And they be like God, likeI like Drake when he makes when he
make me dance, I like Drakewhen he acts tough. I'm like,
ship shit sounded crazy now it's likeit sounded crazy now. I will say
there's one that I like. Istill keep in the rotation and that's God.

(10:50):
We'll see, say what's real thathe did over the YA beat because
that was just him talking about hisexperience in trying to get into this game.
Like it sounded authentic then, itsounds even more authentic now, especially
in the midst of like everything that'sgoing on with Kendrick saying, yeah,

(11:11):
this sing as a con artist andlike you put you put this ship together.
And then like I just saw videobreaking down what he did to Maconayan
with the Tuesday song that send thatto you? Mm hmm Have you heard
that story? Uh? I justknew because then he signed he signed Homie.

(11:31):
I mean, here we go,Somconyan. The Tuesday song existed before
Drake, right, Drake heard it, and then Drake was like, yo,
I want to sign. You know. He's like yo, I want
to get on the song, andSony digital mcconne and was like, yeah,
please get on the song. SoDrake gets on the song song right.

(11:52):
Then song blows up, got theclub going up on a today.
What a great record. Song blowsup and then McCone gets offered two record
deals. Standard record deal, Drakedeal. Okay, the Drake Drake and

(12:13):
his deal says, hey, youdon't have to pay me for this feature
I just gave you, but youalso have to pull down all your other
albums from the past. Maccone hasbeen doing music right ten years. At
this point, you get pulled onall your music from the past, and
then you know, we're gonna we'regonna rock it out o ver yo ov

(12:35):
yo. Or if you take thestandard record deal over here, you keep
all your other music up and youknow, you know, you make your
money off of that Howard, youmake your money. But you have to
now pay me for my feature thatI gave you because I want it on
this record even though I'm signing you. Maconyan, being a broke struggling artist

(13:00):
as he is, can't afford topay for a Drake feature. A Drake
features like two point fifty minimum,So Drake, so excuse me. Macona
takes the Drake deal. Boom Okay, Then all these tweets start to resurface

(13:20):
from Macona of Macona and talking aboutDrake as young people do on the internet.
Yep, and Drake knew about allof these so what did he do?
He shelfed the fuck out of Macona. I always wondered whatever happened to
that dude. I was like,yes, I was like, it's just
like he got signed and we didn'thear from whatever. Again, No,

(13:43):
Drake just shelfed him and then forcehim to work in what they call that
Ovio Sweatshot's the reason, you know, you don't you hear much at the
party or the mother niggas on there, Mom, the song is going to
that guy. So when you hearthat story and then you hear you know
everybody, you know Kendrick saying everythinghe said in those records, and then

(14:07):
you see all these people that Drakehas worked with not stay up, sit
up and say a word like atDivision, like they're technically starting to o
vo, but they're managed by LVRN, And I was like, VRN promotes
them way more than uh Drake doesover a OO and I bet I bet

(14:30):
Justice wants to get them off ofov YO so bad. I was like,
I bet, I bet it's alreadybeen probably in the works the last
couple of years. So bad.Because Division them is them some talented niggas
right there. I don't like alot of New R and B, but
Division up there. Man. WhenI first got hip to them after listening
to a Justice interview, I waslike Division, I'm like, I thought

(14:54):
they were just some guys. Ithought they were just writers for Drake.
I really did. And then Iheard something. I was, Oh,
no, these guys is different.These guys is different. So has the
Kendrick beef. Has it affected yourDrake listenership or what? What songs you

(15:15):
still keep in the rotation from theboy. It wasn't no real specific,
but I was like, at leastI know for sure is I'm not getting
rid of nothing but the same becausethat's personally my favorite Drake album and then
the mixtape So Far Gone, SoFar Gone, those two. The other

(15:37):
than that, it's like all therest of the albums, it's all just
like songs here and there that Ireally like because the persons I know,
people just love, love, love, take care be Personally, I think
it's the best album. I mean, I was like, I understand what
it's like because I like rap Drakepersonally. I want to well, I

(16:00):
wanted to so, you know,it's funny like hearing everything like Kendrick said
about Drake, like and knowing whatwe know about Diddy, now, doesn't
it make sense that did he smackedhim? Yep? You know what you
gotta like not respect a man tosmack him. J Cole, who's mister?

(16:22):
Look he had an altercation with theday they got into a fight,
fight like this was thrown. Didhe smacked Drake? You know, I
can't name it. I not takethat back. There's some there's some girl
that's man I will slap. Yeah, you gotta really disrespect the man to

(16:45):
slap him. But Kendrick keeps thatdisrespect going because not only did he do
that concert on Juneteenth, but hesaid, hey, I celebrated our day
of freedom, now on America's Dayof freedom. I'm still on your neck,
nigga, not like us the videosmiles. What do you thinking about
this video? When you saw it? It was amazing because it was it

(17:07):
was it was me, my girl. We had some some people over family
in town, and uh as afamily, yes, because because we were
already just you know, just chilling, chilling in the living room. We
was letting the kids, you know, watch like Netflix and stuff on the
TV. And I saw K's textlike, yeah, shot out the k

(17:33):
you know, the richest man inthe group chat. But I was like,
yo, y'all not like us.Video drop and we had we were
like already in the miss of likea conversation about Drake and Kendrick because we
were we were all saying like,yeah, Kendrick like did this thing.
And I found out, you knowthat our family that was how they got

(17:55):
together. Was at a Kendrick showback in like twenty twelve when they were
in college. So people together.So we was already, you know,
talking about Kendrick. We were liketalking about our favorite album, favorite song.
Was already before I even saw thetext, and so I was like,
yo, they said, not likeus. Video just dropped. We

(18:15):
told the kids, hey, yeah, yeah, we're gonna We're gonna pall
you know, Paul Patrol or whateverthey was watching at the time. Turn
off Glue, yeah, turned offBlue Crip walking. Yeah. We went
straight to YouTube and we watched itlike twice, like wow, that was
amazing, It's all right, it'salready wanted to be video of the year

(18:37):
mhm. And then I watched itagain like the next day. I was
like because I was interested, likehmmm, it hasn't been a full twenty
four hours. I just want tosee how mean. I was like,
oh, ship is that like fourteenviews and like sixty dours sheh bro that
I forgot how great music videos couldbe. And I was like this is

(18:57):
this is like this is great.Yeah, she's got kind of like that
that clown dance troop in there that'sreal famous out and Compton, he had
ship, big hit was in there, and maar Derozen was like the whole
black hippie in the video. Everybody, everybody was doing hopscotch while they was

(19:22):
talking about OV like yo, yeah, I like a little disclame at the
bottom note No OV holes were likewhatever doing the feeling of this video.
Yeah, that was that was crazy. That was crazy. I again,
I said it last time around.I've never seen hate for one man just
united people like this. This iscrazy. This is crazy. And about

(19:48):
all the other stuffies or people thatwere just there at the music video shoot
that we probably just didn't even seein the video because everybody that was in
La that was at the video shoot, we're posting their own pictures and clips
and stuff. Oh yeah, trafficgetting out of that out of that music
video shoot had to be terrible.Yeah, terrible in LA. Traffic's already
bad. I couldn't imagine. SoI know y G was there, obviously,

(20:11):
Mustard was there. Like it's crazy. I love that video. I
might watch it again once we're done. Potty Yeah. That and even and
with the video the young Remember Isaid some stuff in the group chat.
I was like, I take backthe I need an album after seeing that
video. I missed that. Imissed that part because we was roast you

(20:34):
about like yeah, I need analbum, Like Nope, no, this
is the first time. This isthe first time we were all wrong and
saying everything is a rollout. Thiswas not a rollout. This was just
hatred and like, yeah, andKendrick might not put out ship till next
year, who knows who. Atthis point, I was like, and
then whatever that little snippet or whateverthat song is. He I was like,

(20:57):
Okay, this is like kind ofthe next thing is like, you
don't want to drop that whatever thatsong is. You don't want to drop
it too early because you know,you still got Not Like Us to do
anything, because you know these HBCUsand these college bands that they about to
do they damn with with this song. I wouldn't drop that song un til
next year. Yeah, that's Iwas like. I was like, you

(21:18):
don't want to drop it too earlyand kind of stop the momentum of Not
Like Us and then you never know, people are still saying possibly that we
might get a Knot Like Us remix, and you know, you never know
what I would get that if that'strue. I would drop that right before
colleges go back in session yep.And then me personally, I know Mustard

(21:41):
is dropping his album. I thinkthis month or next month or whatever.
Put it on the Musted album.He already produced the song as it is.
Oh, I like for your headsat yep. I like for yourheads
that man, because sad that aintnobody gonna listen to Mustard ab anyway.
So whoa, I'm gonna sit upMustard album. I mean I am,

(22:04):
but you know, the general publicthe last Mustard album was crazy m hm
to pull that up now, andI'm thinking about it, like, did
you know you already got a singleout with Travis Scott No see Parking Lot.
What when this come out two weeksago? Three weeks ago? The

(22:27):
fuck? Yeah? Perfect time.That's my ship, like topped the bottom
like no skips on us. Ilove this out, big big DJ Mustard
fan over her, Big big BigMustard got some summer hits to walk and
we'll get to those a little bitlater, so smiles. I have a

(22:51):
question for you coming off this notlike US day. Who the fuck are
these niggas on the XL cover?Oh see? Actually this is actually the
one in like the last maybe fewyears. I actually know a good amount
of these folks. What's what's agood amount? Like over five? I
think it's fire. I' gonna see. Uh. I know Big X the

(23:12):
plug. I didn't know singles thatfat. I got the website pulled right
now. Oh my god. Yeah, because he's from He's from Dallas,
so I know him, that MexicanOt. He's actually one of my my,
my favorite up and coming rappers thisyear. Bars Yeah, I was
like, anybody can check Bars.Yeah, if anybody checked up my music

(23:34):
Impulse mixes that I drop on AppleMusic in title, you know, go
to link Lincoln bio if you're checkingout this embrace and turn up about at
least half or more than half ofmy mixes have one Mexican Ot song that
I've heard this year on him,because I'm like, this, dude,
this has not disappointed me. Fromevery song that I've heard this year from

(23:56):
him. Let's see, I neverheard of Lake Banks. I've heard of
Bossman d Low actually because of kbecause he was playing a song from him
and like Gorilla when we was gettingready for the wedding. Uh, it
kind of went hard, but otherthan that, I don't know anything from
from him. Never heard of richAmiri. I just know he. I

(24:19):
guess he's the kid that left thephoto shoot. They told her he had
to rap, and he was like, what I gotta rap? Oh,
I gotta go Scarlet. I justknow she's the chick that they said reminds
him of DMX, because I guessDMX's wife hit up Swiss beats to work
with her. Besides, I don'treally know nothing from her. Huncho.

(24:41):
I've heard of him because he actuallydoes like more like an R and B
vibe ish type flow I heard.I heard from some nice joints from him,
even though the way he looks hewould not know that he does.
He's actually more for a lover typeof flower type four bats again from Dallas,

(25:02):
So I've heard of him. I'veheard of Maya the Dawn couldn't tell
you not one song, but I'veheard of her. Uh, let's see
Cash Cobain. I've heard of himbecause he got that I guess a joint
with the Ice Spice Chick that hasbeen going up. And then you know
that the j cole versus that everybodywas talking trash about, which rightfully.
So it was trash Ja Coble versusit's a Cash Cobain song. Let's see

(25:29):
skill a baby. I've heard ofhim, couldn't tell you not one song,
nothing about oh no, because he'sfrom Detroit. He's the one that
everybody just talking about. That's allI know about. It was like he's
the one that just says something abouteminem and yeah, that's all of them,
right yep, uh yeah, yeah, yeah, Like I've at least
heard of majority of the list.Now actually listen to him. It's like

(25:52):
maybe two Okay, I've heard someMexican ot songs that nigga got our big
extra plug. I think he hegot a song out that like that actually
rock with. It's not it's notbad. Uh. He need to lose
weight. That's scary, Big RichardMary. Now that I saw he,

(26:19):
he found out he had to runaway because he can't freestyle. I'm gonna
be on that niggas next forever.He might try to fight me one day.
Be a bad decision for him.Scarlet, she's cool bars wise,
I would say she's a step downfrom Lotto, but not as bad as

(26:40):
some of the bullshit. She's notsexy, she's not sex. She's better
than sexy rap by a lot,but she's not as good as like Lotto
or you know the chicksen Griselda thatbe spitting. She is a lot like
d MX. Her bars are inyour face. They're quite scary. And
that's all a matter, is true. True, she's New York to the

(27:02):
core. I guarantee she wears Timberlandseverywhere. I'm sure she says dead ass
a lot. Other than that,I just don't skal the babies from de
traite, so give me the benefitof the doubt. But that that shit

(27:23):
he said like by m like it'sbeen my issue with my city for the
longest time, like for him tosay, like emine. So it's the
issue of objectivity versus subjectivity. Ican objectively say Salib is better than most

(27:52):
of my favorite rappers. I cansubjectively say that it is not in my
personal top ten. So that andthat, like and that's kind of what
I try to preach to anybody fromthe city. Is the best rapper from
the city bar none like that.There isn't a there isn't a close too.

(28:17):
You can say he's not my favoriteout of the city that's totally fine.
You can say he's not in mytop five favorites. But to say
he's not the best out of thecity, that's that's just purely wrong.
Like because when it comes to likethe actual skill of putting words together into
rhymes and making verses, I don'tknow if there's anyone ever that's like ever

(28:41):
better than them, like ever.So like that being said, like you
look at the fact that like barfor bar, if he's not top three,
he's top two, And then youlook at he's had hits, he's
top billboards, and he's sold tensof millions of albums. You have to

(29:03):
say he's the best. Now youcannot be your favorite. That's totally fine.
Dough Boys, cash Out, TeamE Side forty two, Dougs,
Sean whoever. But you you cansimply say he's the best, but he's
just not my favorite. And that'swhat I try to tell people. But
again, this newer generation, they'reall stupid. So to try to explain

(29:25):
to them objectivity versus subjectivity, it'sgonna be very difficult to do. But
that that's the hill I would chooseto die on if anything. And another
thing I want to tell these Kidsis Emma's one, Races two three to
me, three is Sean, andfor is probably Elzi out of slum village.

(29:52):
Everybody else is distant, very distant? Are you distant? Payroll?
I think Pyroll is a phenomenal rapper. Big Sean's a phenomenal rapper. Danny
Brown is a phenomenal rapper. Ihate his voice, like I can't stand
it. It bothers the shit outof me. So he is. That's

(30:12):
why I've never really been able toget in to him, Like, like,
Okay, I see why you werepopular and while you're skilled, but
just personally I can't. I've neverwas able to get into it. Yeah.
Like, if I'm being honest,Danny Brown is probably like five and
skill of the Detroit rappers. Butlike, his voice bothers me so much

(30:34):
that I can't do it. I'ma big Bowldie James guy. You know,
Griselda my cousin produced a song he'son. So I'm a little biased
there. I admit my biases,but again, drug dealer rap is always
gonna be better than drug user rapto me, and that nigga make stand

(30:55):
on the corner when it's cold outsideslanging rocks, hand to hand music and
it's it's just beautiful. Yeah,like you said, skill wise, yes,
the best bar none, but Ican see like again objectively, it
was like as far as like theinfluence of the city, I understand like

(31:15):
how someone like him says like yes, like he's not influencing like none of
us, because you know it's theother niggas that you've mentioned and other niggas
that I'm pretty sure that you knowway more about than me. It's like
these are the niggas that have influencedthe sound of the city. Like he
has no influence on our sound atall. He he will just use us

(31:37):
to get on a feature or whatever, just to you know, somewhat say
relevant. But skill wise, yes, he's the best. But as far
as like the influence of the cityand making all of us are at least
a new generation wonder rap, yeah, I can see that, Like,
yes, he has nothing on us, but you still got to just give
him the process. Like yes,skill wise he's the best influence No,

(32:01):
yeah, I mean influence on thecity, like you gotta you gotta take
it back to the street lords inthe East Side, Charter boys, they
was they started the Detroit sound,and then from there you get to Dough
Boys, Cash Out Team east Side. They they really ushered in how the

(32:22):
newer sounds. And then kids comingup now are gonna look at forty two
Doug like, that's what Detroit rapsounds like. To me, Like Detroit
rap sounds like, it sounds likethe east Side cheddar Boys, the Street
Lords, and then there's a tome, there's a flip coin to it.

(32:45):
And that's what guys like roy soundlike. What you know, what
Obie sounds like, what m soundslike? Like? We got bars?
Like we got bars. So it'snot it's not just the street ship.
We got bars. And I thinkyou look at a guy like Sean and
his early stuff was a good marriageof that. It was the sounding of

(33:07):
the street ship and you know,the specific bringing in of Detroit specific things,
but then also the elite level lyricismthat you know, somebody who like
because us and Shawn the same age, somebody who went to the store and
bought the marshamaothers op. Somebody whoremembers when him and Royce fell out and

(33:30):
the tracks that came out of that. You know, in the mixtape era,
that that's that perfect marriage of it. But I think again, Sean
got so big that he was hewas bigger than just like the street level
shit. And then that's why yousee like the new Detroit rappers like skill
of Baby and everybody more influenced byTeamy Side and everybody else. And again

(33:55):
and to me and to me honestly, that's why cash Out sounds so much
different than the Detroit sound because Ithink cash downs like thirty seven thirty eight.
So she she's around that, she'saround that same age of when we
were in middle school. It wasBlade ice Wood all the fucking time,
KDZ. You might get shot inmy hood, gets stuck in my hood,

(34:16):
all of that shit. And thenyou know, this white boy comes
out and you're like, oh,that's that's different. But he's from the
city, so you're like, oh, we're rocking with it, and then
saying you know, you get andthen he's connected with Royce and you're like,
these are crazy bars. But again, that that's my that's my rant
on the city smiles telling me whichone of these ex double exelf freshman should

(34:42):
I should I give a chance toside of the ones that I mentioned that
I've heard already. Yeah, besidesMexican Ot and Big Against the Book,
I wouldn't say because I listened tofor bast As project that ship is ass.
Oh yeah, we did talk aboutthat, so to as I would
say, like y'all actually hunch them. Yeah. Yeah. Like the few

(35:07):
songs I've heard from him, I'mlike, Okay, I do like him,
but it's not like rapper, yourap. He really is just more
like a more R and B vibe. I'm cool with that. I'm cool
with that. I mean, youknow, you put me on the blast
and I'm pretty sure blasted him beingmy Spotify Top one hundred at least seven
in his song, So I cantrock with that, okay. But besides

(35:31):
that, I wouldn't say anybody elseon that list. I think I might
have heard a Maya the Darn songfloating around on the inner webs this weekend.
I don't know. Men like thereason I heard actually heard of her
because she got a song. Shehas a remix of a song with flow

(35:53):
Millie. I was like, Ilike flow Millie. Heard of flow Millie
too, so I was like,I was like, okay, I was
like, let me check this out. I only checks out because the new
flow of me was I'm like,oh, song's cool. I don't know
who this chick is whatever, Idon't know who you are. This this
song is okay, So I haveno clue who you are though, But

(36:15):
yeah, I think Maya de Donhas done something and I saw flolling around
on Instagram. But that's another thingfor another time. Oh she's from New
York too, No, I didn'teven know that. I wonder if she
does drill rap or pussy rap.Speaking of pussy rap sexually. Red is

(36:38):
getting ready to cancel her tour?Are you shock? Smiles? Yeah,
actually, because you know, wetalked. We talked about it in the
group that I you know, itwas talking to my girl about it,
and fully like was going through it. I was like, numbers wise,
depending on like the cities, thirtyseven thousand bad. But that's the only

(37:00):
she's doing like small venues that's likeone hundred to fifty five hundred like type
venues, which I think she shouldstick to if she do like a bunch
of those type of venues. Sellingthirty seven thousand tickets is actually pretty good.
But I'm like, I think she'sgoing I'm pretty sure, she's going
for venues as holding way more thanthat, which I meant to actually actually

(37:23):
look at to see what the venuesthat she was going for because speriences like
the Dallas meaning because I was like, oh, let me check to see
what she's going to be out inDallas. But I'm shocked, but not
really shocked, because I was like, because at first when out when you
said it, I thought I readit as she sold eighty five thousand,
and I'm like, oh, no, she's only trying to sell eighty five

(37:46):
thousand. Then she's only seld thirtyseven percent. Yeah, so this is
where mean you disagree. Thirty seventhousand for tour. That's not it's not
good, not good at all.So she has Columbus on on her on

(38:07):
her list the what do you callit? The capacity for nationwide arena,
and Columbus is twenty thousand alone forconcerts. Yeah. Like the thing that
she's trying to do for Dallas isin Fort Worth and it's a fourteen thousand

(38:28):
seat arena exactly. Yeah. Iwould not yeah, for her, I
would not try to fill up afourteen thousand seat arena. Goat go do
House of the House of Blues.I was like, do something like that.
So yeah, So that that putsit in a better perspective. So

(38:49):
she's going to arenas that are betweentwelve and twenty thousand people, right,
she sold thirty four thousand tickets total, Like I said in the chat,
if she has twenty five days,that's thirty four hundred people a show.
Do you know how empty a twentythousand person arena looks with only thirty four

(39:13):
hundred people in it, right?I can tell you because I was at
the MAC Championship game between Toledo andMiami and it was at Ford Field.
Ford Field holds about fifty thousand people. MAC Championship probably got ten thousand people

(39:34):
in it. The entire upper rowempty, like it was pretty much just
the seats all the way behind thebenches, like those areas were filled up.
Nothing else. It was free reignyou can. I mean it was
great. You need to go getyou know, concessions or anything. Because
one of the lines anywhere, butfor a concert n And another great comparison

(40:00):
is someone else who's on tour who'sa way bigger star, who's definitely going
to the Hall of Fame, ChrisBrown. He actually did the he did
or he's doing I think I thinkthe show was last night or tonight or
something with that, but the ChrisBrown is actually doing the Dickie's Arena.

(40:22):
And then I saw I don't know, I forgot what side I saw it
posted, but from some shows hedid, like in New Jersey he sold
fourteen thousand, sold it out.New York he did two nights, twenty
seven thousand each night, and thenhe did Boston which was like fourteen thousand

(40:42):
seats, sold it out. Soof course Chris Brown can sell those out,
sexy Red, why did your peoplethink that they could try to get
you to sell out fourteen thousand,ten thousand, five thousand and see venues.
I know you've had the drake likestimulus package somewhat or whatever, but

(41:09):
that ain't gonna do it, Sweety, because yes, you got joints,
but you ain't got that many jointsthat people want to sit there and watch
it, like like do these littlesmaller venues, you know, do your
bigger hits. So she also hasErie Pennsylvania booked. The Eerie Insurance Arena

(41:32):
is a capacity of sixty. Shecan't sell that out. Yeah, see,
you know it need to be likea thousand macs. So then let
me ask you this question smiles asa follow up, why do you think

(41:53):
she can't sell out smaller arenas themusic at the end of the day,
Yeah, music's not good, that'snot good enough. I mean I personally
am like the guest features in thejoints. I'm like a I like sex,

(42:15):
like my girl she can't stand there, and I like to play sexy
red songs just to get that annoyedface on her face, like why you
play that song? But I ama fan because he's just authentic, authentically
hurt. But I wouldn't go througha sexy red show because also I think
about the type of crowd she wouldbring. It's just like those ain't the

(42:38):
type of girls if I was asingle man. If I was a single
man, those aren't the type ofgirls that I'd want to trying to holler
at ticks, hanging out, theultimate scream at a Yeah, fighting and
brunch. Yeah that, but Icontributed to died. Yeah say, I

(43:02):
only drink castle azul but can't spellit type of checks. And also that
dress and act just like sexy redcar smell like black and miles and bad
decisions. Yeah, I got Igot a chill. Okay, I'm gonna
chell. You're right, but yeah, I just don't. I don't get

(43:22):
the music good enough. I don't. That's like you gotta go for the
smaller things, like you, uhthat was you or whoever say was like,
yeah, do like these these clubs, these strip clubs, do that
because those are like a couple hundredcapacity. Do these homecomings because at least
you know that's a guaranteed check itno matter how many they sell. I

(43:43):
think that's a bad idea. Iforget who said in the chat, but
her doing a college tour is abad idea, bad idea. Do you
know why play to stuff? Theprotest the as many people that are on
her side, as like women shouldexpress her sexuality. There's another side to

(44:07):
that coin of this is terrible.We should not let our kids listen to
this. No one should listen tothis. There's that crowd, there's the
religious right who would protest, notbig colleges. Just dude, I'm talking.
We had crazy Bible guy bgs U. Oh yeah. The motherfuckers be

(44:30):
everywhere everywhere. Man. I sawsome black israel lites. I think we
I think we was walking around detroitFord around on K's wedding and there was
some black Israel lights down there andyelling and ship telling you the crazies are
everywhere. And again, the typeof crowd she brings the smaller, the

(44:53):
smaller HBCU crazy, not the Hampton'sand the Howards like that, smaller ones
that you know, I can't thinkof any of the smaller ones, but
you know, I guess or maybelike you know, the sorority of the
fraternity parties like something, or likea she should just do strip clubs.

(45:17):
Yeah, like who are the guysback in our day like G five and
what's some other niggas that used tothrow the parties back in our day?
Like just a part of that justthrown by them. Like he's just like
the local college campus niggas that justknown'm for throwing parties. I mean,

(45:39):
I feel like I feel like she'sbigger than random niggas throwing a party out
of college, you know, callyou up tight, Like I think she
she's to position herself a little bitbigger than that. But I mean,

(46:00):
again, the music isn't that level. But from a notoriety standpoint, she
needs like be positioned above, notjust anybody can call me and get me
to show up at you know,the field at your local fieldhouse. I
and I mean, you don't getme wrong. We was in school Duel

(46:21):
Santana performed at our field house.But again, Jewels had had an album
out in quite a while at thatpoint, and from me from what we
what we've learned about Jewell's recently,he might have had a lean habit he
was trying to support, but wholedifferent thing. Yeah, I don't know.

(46:43):
I think she should just strick todo a strip clubs and maybe make
better music. Just it's a thoughton my end. I don't know.
Maybe maybe I'm crazy. I like, I like for my rappers to be
able to rap, I know,a novel concept these days. But also
on that because again I guess welike we had the whole conversations, like

(47:06):
she's never admitted that she can rap. Oh she can't. She never.
I was like the fact that,like, hey, I just got people
behind me that do all that tomake my songs sound to at least the
beat. What's my man's name,that's the producer that does all her stuff.

(47:30):
Uh, I can't think of hisname. He's a known producer.
Whatever, it doesn't matter. TakeKeith. Yeah, he's the one that
produces, like all her stuff,Like, yeah, no, she can't
rap. I mean most of thelyrics don't rhyme. But I mean that

(47:51):
then stop the baby from being successful. A lot of his lyrics don't rhyme
either, trust me, I've checked. He just knows how to write a
beat or better. Yeah yeah,but again just checks you read if you're
listening, because I know you are, because everybody listens. Just make better
music. Just take some time,learn how to rap. You can you

(48:13):
can do to sell bushy shit,and like be a good rapper, trust
me a little. Kim deadit andher first album is phenomenal, So it's
possible, telling you it's possible.And also, like you're saying, I
don't know if she's writing her ownstuff. If she is writing, just
get some writers. Yeah, Drakedidn't. Card B doesn't allegedly allegedly,

(48:43):
we know that Party writes a lotof her stuff. So okay, And
she's never she's never hit it.Yeah yeah, yeah, what's Cardi coming
back out with the album? Thatwas actually a question I meant to ask
my guest the other day. It'slike, does Cardi need to drop album

(49:06):
or can she just keep doing thissingle thing here and here and there these
disc features and just keep it going. No, man, yes, she
could do that. I mean she'sgot I mean, Cardi being such a
big profile now, she could justRihanna us and never put out an album.
Yep. That's like because like hercelebrity and her stardom. Yeah,

(49:29):
just give us a couple of featuresor whatever a year and just keep being
vodka and fused whipped cream now andship. I can't she need to do
an album? No more? Shegood? She good. Speaking of albums
and songs, Snigg Smiles was keepingthe fact that Mustard got an album coming
out from me. I appreciate that, smile. I was supposed to supposed

(49:52):
to share with the class. Youknow we you know, my old ass
don't keep up to date with anything. Yeah, faith faith Faith of a
Mustard seed boons. He said hehad just got the title from Nipsey because
he said, yeah, because perfectten was the last album, right,
yep, he said, while hewas working on an album and talking to

(50:13):
Nipsey, like while they was workingon music or whatever. He said,
that Nipsey gave him. Idea waslike while he was trying to work on
the album, he was like,hey, you should drop an album called
Faith of a Mustard of a mustardSeed. But he said by the time
him and Nessie had that conversation,he had already had perfect ten kind of
like locked in with the label thatthat was going to be the album title.

(50:36):
So Muster heard that phrase from Nipsy. He hadn't just heard it,
no, No, I guess theywere like talking. They were like talking
and Nipsey was like, no,you need to name an album called Faith
of a mustard Seed. And sohe was like, start reading more books.
Man a find of signed a Nipseyoriginal shot shout out the neighborhood.
Yeah, I mean the idea ofit is like if you just keep the

(51:00):
faith, like it'll just keep growingbecause mustard seeds they just keep growing.
It doesn't seem like a lot whenwhen you finally look at it, but
it'll just it'll just keep going andgoing and going and going. You just
have to again, keep the faithand it'll grow like a mustard seed.
And that's what Mustard did. Hekept the faith. He brought himself out

(51:20):
of all of his contracts, andhe just kept grinding. And like,
sometimes you just got to do thatwhen you know, when you know you
got the best work on the block, you just got to keep working.
Yeah, And that's what Mustard did. And that's why I think right now
is a period of time that titlelike, Hey, I'm still doing my
thing. I still believe in myselflooking at it, I got a whole

(51:43):
hit out here that I wasn't evenexpecting that I didn't plan on. Yeah,
if I if I knew this wasif I knew this song was such
a big hit, it wouldn't havebeen in the Kendrick Lamar folder. It
would have been an the y Chieffolder. Let's be honest, right,
But Kendrick hit him up. He'slike, yeah, I got some stuff.
Yeah, Yeah, I'm sure Kendrickgets a choice of good beats.

(52:04):
But we all know the great Mustardbeats go to YG, they go to
g Z, they go to someother guys, go to ty dollars something
exactly. Kendrick Lma, Who's like, I'm chilling the music. My baby
daddy just signed like five hundred dollarsyou know contract. That's right. She

(52:25):
is with Jason Tatum. Oh yeah, we ain't never get another LMA album
ever again, ever, ever,ever. He just signed the biggest NBA
contract ever ever, sixty seven milliondollars a year. Smiles. Ye,
and that's just from the NBA.He got deals with Gatorade, with Ruffles,

(52:47):
Nigga Nigga. Guys, go listento my last episode I'm gonna Brace
Turnable gamy BA where I talk aboutthis new billionaire class of players that's coming
in because this ship's insane. Butback to the music. We're not getting
album from Lma, We're not gettingout from Cardi for a long time.

(53:08):
We got some stuff coming up,but smiles. I need to know,
outside of the obvious, not likeus, what are some other song of
the year, song song of theSummer contenders in your book? Because I
haven't been outside, I couldn't tellyou. I was like, it's not

(53:30):
like us. It's the only songI look forward to hearing if I do
go outside. That's fair, Imean, that's fair. I'm trying to
I'm trying to like rack my braina little bit to try to think him.
Song man Precision would have been theone had this whole beef and I

(53:50):
started because I love precision from BigSean. I don't know if it would
have been song of the Summer,but it would have been fire. Yep.
They stepped all over, all overall over it. I'm trying to
think, like, what's honestly,and everybody's gonna be pissed off at me
when I say this, But songof the Summer might be the bar song

(54:16):
from Shaboozie he flipped the j kwanlike dad might be a song in the
summer outside of not like us.Yeah, that's that's good fire because that
song is everywhere. Like I sawhe performed at the b T Wars,
I didn't watch the performance. Youknow how sick of that song I am?

(54:37):
Why I hear it every single fuckingday everywhere. It's a good song.
Though they had a a festival actuallythe same weekend as K's wedding,
which, again, K, thatshows how much I was my dog,
because I really wanted to go tothat festival. It was like the first

(55:00):
It was called Together two Together Landor something like that first like festival they
had in Dallas, and they addedhim as a last minute performer, like
a week or two before the showoff, just off the strength of the
song. Now, I've heard fromdim Dude that I went there. They
was upset that he actually didn't performthe song, and they said he kind

(55:21):
of had like a bad show.He seemed like he was like in a
mood or whatever, and the factthat he just didn't play the song was
just also like, how do youcome and perform and then not perform the
song? But I mean, Iknow you don't want to be in one
hit wonder, but you need toget that money, like you watched there,
my guy. Yeah, so Iwas like, but I was like,
I was like that this show islike that song has blown up from

(55:45):
back the like they're like, ohno, no, let's let's see how
can we get you added to thisreal quick? Even though it's mainly it's
really just an all hip hop whitelineup, but we know, like you
black and you know, got afire song right now, formally up another
shot on wisky everybody at the bargainAnd then again, like you said,

(56:07):
even though I didn't watch the bI do like the fight of it he
brought. That's dope, and Imean and shout out to him. You
know, I just want to remindeverybody out the world that country music is
a black music too, just wantedtoo. Yeah, I didn't know.
Yeah, we started country, westarted blues. The very very first country

(56:29):
song ever recorded was by a blackperson. Yeah, blues, country,
rock and roll, jazz, Rand B pop two mm hmm pop two
because pop is just R and Bthat they were trying to figure out how
to sell the white people. Boyand if when you really, when you

(56:51):
really dive into that, that shipis diabolical. Yeah, because I remember
watching the Community or something of that. Was it the Battery Boys that InSync,
like the label it was InSync.Yeah, basically supposed to be battery
because they were first Yeah, they'resupposed to be off of It was boys

(57:15):
to Men and some of that,and like, you know, who were
your influences, and they were likeboys to men, we want to be
boys to men and they were like, no, you can't. You gotta
say new kids on the block.It's like, but no, we we
want to be like voice to men. And they were like, but we
we can't sell that to to whitepeople. And they were like, well,

(57:39):
I guess we got to get thischeck. So we just we will
avoid that question well or pretend likeyou're this whole new thing of singers that
can harmonize very well when they're not. They were just a carbon copy of
Boys to Men. They just didn'tdo they didn't do as many ballads like

(58:01):
anyways, Yeah, all let meget it go real deep on you eat.
Electronic music is black music too.I want to throw that out there,
especially Detroit. We was, wewas rocking the eatium of house music
in the early nineties mm hmmm,and then started talking about Rogers Zapp and

(58:27):
you yeah, yeah, you know, like evening like house music is super
proper in Chicago because it's black music. Yeah, because we came up with
that ship. Because I remember actually, you know, shout out to uh
in front of the pod and allthat. Kemon James, he's actually one

(58:47):
of the first tell me about thegroup like heat wave and all that.
And I remember going back and talkingto my dad about it. To my
dad'sm Chicago too, and he waslike, yeah, that's that's fact,
like how music is. And I'mlike, oh shit, all that JIT
music. Yeah, that that's aDetroit and Chicago thing like one thousand percent.

(59:09):
Like I was, We're listening toDJ house mixes like those were some
of my earliest memories of like beingin the car with my mom and my
dad at like eight o'clock at night. We're going to get Chinese food or
we're going to get a pizza.We're leaving Red Lobster, and the eight
o'clock mixes on and it's house music. Diggit Jim and we Jill and we

(59:36):
all of that shit, all ofthat, all of that shit. But
that all of that being said,guys, all great music is black music.
So it's fine. One day you'lllearn there's some new black rock groups
out too that are like I waslike, whoa, it's pre damn good
guys, pree damn good stuff,you know. And it's one thing like

(59:58):
to see one black person in therock group, but to see like full
black rock groups, Oh, that'sto me, that's that's pretty cool to
see. So I'm kind of I'mglad we were about to take that music
back over to shout out to us. All right, we've come to the
crescendo of this pot smiles you getbuy at an hour and some change.

(01:00:19):
I need to know. I needto know, as we've already discussed,
there are no good songs of thesummer for this summer, what are your
some of your summer go to likebangers if wife he hits you and says
yo were gone outside and I wantto go outside and party like you used
to In the raj at eight twentyeighth Street in BG with Dub and Smithy,

Kenjlumar Humble, be Humble, sittingdown Kanye and jay Z Niggas in Paris.

(01:01:31):
What the song Waco Walle and RoscoeDash no hands? Let me pause
right there, that's not just asong, that is a moment in time.
Yes, Like I feel like ifyou're in your mid thirties and you
don't know Walle is full verse,I'm not sure I can trust you.

(01:01:52):
Right if that song comes on andyou're not looking for one of your homies
to hold you up, watch somegirl get you that full twirk it on
that first verse and in that secondverse, everybody's just rapping. Man,
what a time? All right?I can tink. I just got a
few more up to go, evenolder than that. I was like fifty
