Speaker 1 (00:00):
Because ain't nothing but a cheap bang, bang, bang To
blow them jeans.
So we crazy Death grown getsthe label that pays man
Unfaithful.
So please don't try to fakethis.
But I'm back to the lecture athand.
Back to the lecture, or legend,at hand.
What's good with y'all.
(00:22):
There was a time where I used tolove, love, love, love, love
New Year's Eve, like I used totry to get out the house quick,
fast and in a hurry andtypically when I did that it was
just because I was trying toget fucked up.
You know, like, for whateverreason, I don't know why, as a
(00:44):
country we decide that the lastday of the year Some of us is
gonna drink till we can't drinkno more and you know be all over
the place, you know throwing up, doing all whatever.
But this year was different.
This year I was in the crib, Ikicked back, I enjoyed the peace
(01:09):
, the relaxation.
Honestly, I just enjoyed notbeing outside, because I feel
like I've been outside all year.
I like to tell people now thatI'm no longer outside, I'm just
sitting on the park bench.
But yeah, you know, with thenew year happening, it would
(01:32):
only be right for Day G and Yemito talk about Not knowing who
year's goals resolution cause.
That's corny To you.
It's corny to everybody thathas a podcast.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
To you.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
It's corny to everybody that has a podcast.
But yeah, we're talking aboutthe new year, we're talking
about the amalgamation that was2023 and we're gonna talk about
what to expect in 2024.
Hopefully it doesn't bore you,but I know I'm already knowing
(02:13):
that it won't.
That's why y'all here, that'swhy we love y'all.
Just a quick update.
I know we were terrible atposting our publishing content,
but I'll just give you a quickstat.
We posted three episodes in2023.
I know terrible, but thosethree episodes got over 2500
(02:38):
downloads.
So shout out to y'all If y'allwant quick math.
That's about 786, 790-ish perepisode that y'all tuned in to
us, with the highest listenepisode with almost 18,000
downloads, or 1800 downloadsbeing getting left by Day G
(03:00):
again.
So it's a common theme, it'snot a common theme.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
It makes sense that that's the highest, because
people love to hear stories ofabandonment I think.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
That's what it is.
I never left you.
Yemi always likes to steal likeshe'd be left out for good, for
dead, but in a lot of ways wecould say that you have
surpassed me this year.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Well, I wouldn't say so necessarily, because I don't
really know.
I'm not in competition, we'renot in competition, it's not
about competition.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I just think that there are some things that you
did this year that like, okay,everybody thought that it would
be something I did, but youended up doing it, not in like a
bad way.
I say this because for thelongest time, niggas and the
family been calling me theLeBron, like I'm supposed to get
everybody out of poverty, butwe was never.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
You were supposed to get us out.
You were supposed to use thatbasketball football.
You're supposed to use thatfootball stuff that you do to
get us out the hood.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
See what I'm saying, see what I'm saying, see what
I'm saying.
And now I'm over here sayingthat you have surpassed me this
year.
And now you over here talkingabout some well, Niggas love to
be humble, but I don't love tobe humble, excuse me.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I just like to be realistic.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Okay, so what was unrealistic about what I said?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
I don't think I'm there yet what does that mean?
Speaker 1 (04:22):
I don't think I'm there.
I don't even think I'm in.
I told you this I don't eventhink I'm in my bag.
This year actually taught mehow much I'm not even in my bag
2023?
.
Yeah, because I did holisticallygood year.
Obviously, the end of the yearwas a little bit rough, but
holistically, it was such atreat to live 2023.
(04:45):
For me.
It's very weird and verysurreal when you think about the
type of person that you'vealways wanted to be in life and
then you actually are living andactualizing that in real time.
But you're actually awareenough to actually know that.
And that's what the first half,the first almost seven, eight
(05:07):
months of 2023 was.
I was really living as abeautiful black man.
Why not?
Yeah, I was having a time.
I was really in, I had a glowabout myself.
I was just filled with so muchgratitude.
(05:29):
Amen, yeah, so that's what I'msaying.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Gratitude.
Why can't that be the name ofthe episode?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Probably because we already used it.
Maybe, so but yeah, that's kindof what 2023 was.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
At least the beginning of it.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
You said yeah, towards the end very, very, very
rough polar opposites.
But you know, we live and welearn 180.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yeah for the people who began to mess up with 360.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, because that means you're in the same spot.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
That means you're in the same spot.
Which is, I mean, if you end upin the same spot, there ain't
no problem, because no progressis not negative progress.
Yeah, sure, we can say that,but yeah, 2020, but is negative
progress?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
a oxymoron.
Negative progress is the end ofoxymoron, and that's if you're
going backwards.
So then, that is an oxymoron,which you just said yes.
But I guess what you're sayingis that it can be negative as
long as it's not where youstarted from.
You feel me Like when they sayyou take two steps forward.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Exactly, exactly that .
That's where I was getting atwith that one.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So then, the question I guess I would have to pose it
to you is 2023, what was it foryou?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
I think it was a cluster F, cluster F.
I feel like it was all over theplace.
I feel like, as I was doing myend of year reflection, how long
do you do for your end of yearreflection?
How long I'm going to keepreflecting, I feel like, until
(07:06):
the first quarter is over.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
That's valid.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I feel like for me, I was sitting with myself Like
yesterday, the day beforeyesterday, and I was like I wish
I was journaling 2023.
Because, it would have beengood to look back at the year
and be able to pinpoint specificdays.
(07:32):
Where I felt one way or where Ifelt another, because when you
look back at the year, the onlything you really have is maybe
your photos, memories, and Iwould love to be able to tap
back, or would have loved to beable to tap back into the
emotion or just being in thisspace that I was at and feeling
that or looking back at it.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
That's a very good point.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
So I think this year one thing I want to focus on is
journaling.
It might not be an everydaything, but when I feel the
spirit of getting stuff out Imight go run to Twitter, because
sometimes that's what I tend todo.
But then you're limited, youknow.
(08:16):
Twitter is only how manycharacters?
And you're limited because youdon't want to say certain things
, because you don't want peopleto judge you.
Yeah, I don't want people in mybusiness, so I really want to be
intentional with writing stuffdown and getting it out and then
reflecting.
So yeah because I don't reallyremember too much of like I know
(08:38):
what happened because I wasthere, but being able to be like
, oh, on this day, at this time,I was feeling this and it was
because it is.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
And I don't feel like that.
2023 was more like.
I hate to say it, but in a lotof ways 2023 lived me.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
I saw something on Twitter was like For 2024, I'm
not being good, the year need tobe good to me, or some shit
like that, like I'm not doingtoo much Because the year need
to prove itself to me, becauseyeah, type shit, like I try my
best, the year need to try itsbest too this year, something
along those lines.
But yeah, I feel that.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Yeah, I only say that because, towards the end of
2023, I realized how many peoplewas actually going through it
in my immediate life and I waslike, damn, what the hell are we
all going through shit at thesame time, like what is it about
life that has us all strugglingemotionally, mentally,
(09:39):
physically, financially,spiritually, any forms of it?
And I just feel like, yeah, itwas that first year that it was
completely, 100%, normal.
All breaks was off and peoplewas living a life, we was out
(09:59):
and about, we was having a time.
But I was tired and, like April, I'm not gonna hold you.
I was tired in April and then Ijust found a way to carry it
through.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
I feel like it hit me in like October.
I remember before that.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
I was cashed by May, like literally, I was thinking
about it, I was like I wasgiving myself, I was giving
myself a little to no time.
That's why I said it was sointeresting that you said you
journaled.
I wish I would have journaledat those moments where I was
like, wow, I really set out tobe everything that I thought I
(10:40):
was gonna become, but then, onthe flip side, see how fast the
decline happened because I wasspreading myself too thin,
because that would have been aninteresting journey to see from
a day-to-day perspective.
But I guess it is what it is.
You know we live and we learn.
You know, as I go through thisthing called the Saturn Return.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Fact, in 2023, I entered mine.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
So yeah, and my Saturn Return has been a
motherfucker honestly 2024, dgturns 30.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Yeah, tunde turns 40.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
He turns.
Yeah, he does turn 40.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
He does so it's big stuff coming up the, and I wanna
use that as like motivation orlike as like.
Let this year be serendipitousin a way, right like for
whatever I don't know, like forlike accomplishments, for
(11:37):
success, for like recognition,for enjoyment for life, for love
, for light.
Let this be the year 2024,because, like 20, like yo, yo,
yo, yo Elders brother is turning40,.
That's a milestone.
I don't know what they call it,if it's like a Jubilee or like
(12:00):
a Diamond.
I think those are a little bitolder, but it's a celebration.
Like that's a big deal.
And then you're turning 30,which is also a big deal.
So I think, like, let this yearbe the culmination of like
amazing things and we get tocelebrate them for, and not the
(12:20):
only thing we celebrate bebirthdays.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Amen.
Amen In Jesus' name, BecauseI'm just turning another year
older, but I mean.
I'm definitely looking forwardto 30.
I've been telling people foryears I could never, I could not
have waited long enough, butalso I've been enjoying my 20s.
I feel like people be like oh,the 30s is where you finally
have.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Take off.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
I was like, if that's the case, I don't even know
where I'm gonna be.
Right, that's a fact 30, yousay that's when you start
getting your money, and I waslike, well, I've already, I've
already been getting my money,but we still have more to go,
but we still have way more to go.
Yeah, so it's interesting,because now I look at it very
holistically and we just take itday by day.
(13:03):
But yeah, no, 30 is.
It's gonna be a time you knowwhat I'm saying when we doing
what we need to do throughoutthe course of this year and it
starts to build and it starts tocompound on itself.
I already know I'm built for it.
I just wanna make sure that Iget to a standpoint where, again
, at the end of the day, nobodyis ever gonna be checking for me
(13:28):
, right, which I understand.
But I think the most importantthing is that if I'm not
checking for myself, what am Ireally doing?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
in this world.
You know what I'm saying.
Yeah, you gotta, you gotta yougotta make sure you write with
it.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Correct, you know my home girl, lauren Lauren.
What's her name?
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I don't think that's your home girl if you don't know
her name.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Lauren Hill.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Home girl Lauren Hill .
She said I gotta get my pieceof mine.
Is that the name of the song?
I gotta get my piece of?
No, huh, anyways, let's move on.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I thought you was going with how you gonna win if
you write with I ain't rightwith it.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Ain't right with it.
How you gonna win if you ain'tright with it?
Cause I gotta find my it allyou got it, but yeah, no, I mean
the piece of mine is Hunky door, but what would?
I would say, because I don'twant to be too corny what is a
moment in 2023 that doesn't,that doesn't involve you, that
(14:35):
you really enjoyed this year?
Yeah, you see how I got her,cause she only tend to only
think about herself.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Well, you answer the question for yourself and then
maybe I can use your answer toanswer the question.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
No, that's not how it work, ladies first.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I don't even think about Ladies first.
So like something good thathappened in somebody else's life
.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
That you were a part of.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Yes, yeah, but you just said that I wouldn't have
been a part of.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
No, I said that you weren't a part of meaning.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That I had nothing to do with.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Yeah, it wasn't about you is what I was trying to say
when I wasn't the maincharacter Correct.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
I don't know.
I was going to say my niece, myniece, birthday party.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
What do we do for a birthday party?
Speaker 2 (15:22):
served.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Oh, we did.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Yeah, let you know that the kids is all right.
The kids are all right, some ofthem, not all of them, because
I just seen a video of somebabies wrapping on.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Then baby daddy, and then we did the trampoline park.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Yeah, but yeah, I mean the kids are so biased.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
What about TJ's birthday?
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I was in Puerto Rico on a beach.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
See what I'm saying, just like you were.
See what I'm saying, just likeyou were Just see what I'm
saying, just like you were.
What you love a ride.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I was in Puerto Rico on a beach.
Where were you when?
Speaker 1 (15:57):

I Answer the question.
I was at the crib.
I was with.
No, I was definitely in PuertoRico.
Speaker 2 (16:04):

Yeah, definitely it was a lovely time.
Yeah, it was a wonderful time.
Shout out to hey, shout out toP Rico.

I've never heard anybody describe Puerto Rico,
the island.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Yeah, shout out to Puerto Rico, man.
Lovely time, lovely vacation,lovely people.
You know what I'm saying, so itwas a good time.
What else happened in 2023?
Nothing to really talk about.
I mean, I'll probably saw it onInstagram, honestly, and if you
didn't, you need to befollowing us on Instagram
because I'm confused and YouTubeas well, but if not, you could
(16:49):
always catch up on YouTube.
There was a lot going on.
Like Amy said, it was very mucha cluster F.
Yeah, that was.
I felt like for the first time,for the first year out of the
pandemic, people didn't know howto act.
That wasn't this year, though?
No, it was the first year whereeverything was like Back open,
(17:10):
yeah, back open.
There was no regulation, nostipulations, it was like it was
up up.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
The bulletinations was off.
Yes, correct, it was, nothingwas off.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
OK, so what was your favorite trip?
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Not even relations that we took this year.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Probably Puerto Rico, but Afro Tech Afro.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Tech, the experience, yeah, wow Amazing.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
It was a good experience, like it was good for
, like, just like Out of openingyou know what I mean, Like
putting things in perspectiveshowing what life could be, you
know, but also like setting.
I think it was a catalyst forinspiration.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
For what exactly?
What is the inspiration you'retalking about?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Just like get into the bag Okay If I'm speaking in
baddie's terms so just likebeing like a network or a
socialite, somebody who's a movemaker for lack of a better
words Like and also just DJoutside of Chicago, like in
reaching a different audience adifferent market because I feel
(18:23):
like there is a lot ofredundancy and that's no shade,
but I just feel like for me, Idon't want to be just a Chicago
DJ.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
So I want to be outside.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
And I feel like being able to DJ somewhere that was
not Chicago did wonders for mybrain and also, hopefully, how
so.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Cause.
Now I'm thinking like, okay,where can I go to next?
Cause?
Also cause one of my goals forthe for the for 2023 was to DJ
outside of Chicago and I didthat only once, but you know
it's a check.
If I had a list, I don't knowif I actually wrote anything
down, but if I had a list thatwas on there for sure.
So this year it's likefestivals and also continuing to
(19:04):
DJ outside of Chicago andtouching places that I have not
been before, even in Chicago.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
I love that.
I love that.
That pertains to.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
DJ, I don't really care too much about the money.
Yes, the money is great, butI'm trying to.
I know that the money will come, so right now I'm focused on,
like, really expanding andbuilding my reach.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Hmm, okay.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Kind of like a little .
Well, I mean, did you?
Speaker 2 (19:36):
say what was your happy moment that wasn't related
to you, where you weren't themain character?
Speaker 1 (19:42):
You didn't ask me so.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I'm asking you now my favorite, that's actually a
really good question, thoughlike to ask other people to see,
like, how they think.
Yeah, but I bet you wouldprobably be, for a lot of people
family related, like forsomething that happened with
their family.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
I told you mine, though you know it, it was when
we was at Afro Tech.
Oh, because?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
of me.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
No.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
So how is that unrelated to you?
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Oh wait, I was a main character in that moment, but
we shared that moment together,so I didn't make it.
We were both main characters inthat situation.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Then that does not.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Okay, that does not count.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Okay, I'm okay with that being your risk, because it
still has something to do withme and you know I love me.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
but if you want to pick something else, but that's
fine, I can pick something elsebecause, you're right, my
favorite moment where I was notthe main character would
probably have been yeah, it wasPuerto Rico.
I think when we went to PuertoRico, it was probably the height
of me being so stressed out, atleast the peak of it.
(20:44):
I didn't know it at the time,but work was really getting to
me.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Like you were working on the trip.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yeah, but the times where I was not working and I
was actually able to the timeswhere I was not working, I was
actually able to engage.
No, I had a really fun time,especially the last day.
The last day where I was notworking, I was not doing nothing
, I was like.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Yeah, we literally woke up, went straight to the
excursion, was almost left bythe bus Because it was taken too
long.
Because when they say 9.30 onexcursions, they mean 9.25.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
And my stomach was acting up that whole time, was
it?
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Is that why we was late?
Because you was on the toilet.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
No, that was not me.
That was not me.
That was not me that made uslate.
I was in that bus waiting, butyeah, I was.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I was just so upset because I bought the waterproof
camera like phone cases.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
And you forgot.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
And I left them in the fucking.
I was so mad about that BecauseI would have been cool to get
it.
Yeah, to be able to have yourphone, which also, like we was
in a moment.
We was in a moment.
I remember that moment veryvividly.
Yeah, I won't forget that.
No, because that was fun, likejust being in nature, in the
jungle, really.
Where I'm from, because you'renot from the jungle for real.
(22:00):
Sure, sure, so being amongstthe trees and the leaves and the
soil Sure In the water.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah, yeah, that water, the water was fun Jumping
off the.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I always want to make sure for my birthday buy water,
because I am a cancer and Ifeel like water in the ocean and
bodies of water grounds meMeans absolutely.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Now, I'm just joking, hey, no, it was when you start
talking about your Jesus, we letyou.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
We let you Excuse me.
When you start talking aboutyour Jesus.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Don't come from.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
When you start talking about your Bible.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
When do I talk about my Bible?
When you?
Speaker 2 (22:39):
start talking about your disciples.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Who are my disciples?
I'm not.
I'm not God.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
All 12 of them.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
OK, right.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I'm your homies when you start talking about John
Jacob, jingo Hymer Smiths.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Jesus, do not shun her, for she does not know what
she is talking about.
No, please, I got peoplepraying for me.
Let them keep praying for me.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
I've been winning.
Man I've been losing too.
I'm OK with admitting you knowtook a couple of L's, I think
it's life.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Oh, so what was your?
Speaker 2 (23:07):
If you don't mind sharing what was your biggest L,
you don't have to get intodetail, but you could be as I
won't talk about it in detail,but I did feel like there was a
moment of I mean, I feel likefor me, I think personally,
anytime there's like somethingthat happens in Chicago when it
(23:31):
comes to DJing and I don't getthe call for the opportunity,
I'm like damn, especially whenit comes to DJing.
I feel like, if I feel likeit's an event that I know I
would, kill kill, kill, or Iwould like, would love to be a
part of it for me.
I feel a little bit about that,but I'm like you know, like
what's for me will be for me.
But I do feel, especially whenI see it going to people, that I
(23:55):
know or that I feel personallydon't have the genocide quality
as Suke Jesus has, becausenobody has that.
But I feel like I'm at the, I'mat the position now in it's
just because, like, what do I dooutside of, like working in
DJing, just like living life,and that's why you're here,
because you know that's what wedo.
So yeah so I just feel like forme right now, where I am in my
(24:18):
career, I want to be in theposition to, and I want to be in
those spaces.
I want to be in those positions.
I want to be doing that becausethat's why I feel like I am,
and the only person or peoplestopping me from doing that are
the people who don't the events.
So it's like I was having aconversation excuse me with
another DJ friend of mine.
She has like over 10 Kfollowers on Instagram and she's
(24:42):
like, yeah, like this DJingstuff is so political, like you
could have all the followers andpeople still won't book you
because, like it's about whothey want to DJ their parties
and I'm not kissing no ass, it'sno D, but no, no, no position,
it's really not, it's not thatbecause, hey, I still got my day
(25:03):
job that I'm going to complainabout.
right after this, when I tellyou this story, I'm going to
tell you another L, but yeah, Ijust feel like for me that's,
that's that.
So, yeah, I just feel like, youknow, sometimes I've been
thinking I'm being slided, butpeople aren't thinking about me.
So hopefully this year 2024.
So Jesus is a name that peopleare considering.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
How am?
Speaker 2 (25:22):
I going to get there?
How am I going to do that?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I don't know but I got motion.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
I have 12 months to figure it out.
Shout out to motion.
We got, motion we got motion,big motion.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah, we got motion.
You're funny, you definitelygot motion.
I don't I feel like ifeverything it doesn't even need
to go as planned.
But I think if you, if youaccept the risk and you're
willing to be patient, I thinkyou'll be pleasantly surprised.
I definitely think you will.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
I'm not really a patient person.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
So it's a hard thing to learn.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I know patient.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
It's a hard thing to learn, it's the thing.
It's the thing.
But you had another L to sharewith the people.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I was just going to say I, not L, but a moment where
I felt humbled and we wastalking about this yesterday,
when we was driving home fromChina Buffet, because that's
what we do on New Year's hey,I'll go with China Buffet.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
I'll give it a go.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
And this China Buffet .
We don't have to tell a storyabout this for a different day.
We don't tell a story aboutthis China Buffet for a
different day because my friendswe got to talk about our China
Bay.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
We used to.
We got to talk about our ChinaBuffet.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
We're going to make an episode dedicated to China
Buffets and Buffets.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
We might have to do it straight into China Buffet.
I swear for you.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
No, we're not going to bring no mics to China Buffet
.
I just we're going to make atick tock because my friend was
saying that we need to make atick tock about that.
Regardless, regardless,regardless, regardless of how
far along you get in your career, there will always be a moment
where somebody who is Um titledto be ahead of you or titled to
(26:47):
not be your equal, we'll try tohumble you.
Oh well, I did.
So that's not.
I mean, it's not really thatbig of a deal.
But, like everybody knows, Ilove going into the office and I
feel like I'm getting to thepoint now where I know that you
know some of the stuff that I'dbe doing with first world
problems, like some of the stuff, a lot of the stuff that I'd be
complaining about.
(27:08):
Like, girl, you live a lifethat many would envy.
So I'm not acknowledging, I'mnot like dismissing my own
feelings, because I know that mylife is a little bit better
than somebody else's, cause youknow that's one thing that your
parents will do.
Or, you know, just likesomething that'll even teach you
in therapy.
You know cause you go there.
(27:28):
Um, like, I'm not dismissing myfeelings, but I'm just saying
like, girl, you know whatever,like just do this, you know
we'll get your check and move on.
But it's just a little annoyingto me that there's someone who's
pressing something that I feellike has no bearing on my job
and it's going into the office.
Yeah, like I don't.
(27:49):
I don't think that it's avaluable use of my time.
To be quite honest, I feel likeit does not make a difference
in the work that I do, the workthat I'm capable of doing, and I
really think that it does more,um, bad than good for me.
To be quite honest, like evenwhen I say that it sounds like a
girl, like well, hey, youcomplain because you got to go
(28:09):
into the office two days a week.
But, yes, I'm complainingbecause I have to go on two days
a week because that's like, ifyou think about it like this,
friends and I've been to get onmy soapbox for a quick date.
You can chime in when you needto, but if I'm going, don't you
know don't try to.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
You know, keep rocking, keep rocking.
You know, keep rocking.
I'm going.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
just agree with me, don't try to interject.
Going ahead, that's what all I'msaying is this Whoever created
here, for fuck nigga, if I evergo to your grave I might piss on
it.
I don't know if I justcommitted a crime by saying that
, but all I'm saying is nine tofive, five days out of seven
days out the week.
Oh, that shit is crazy.
(28:46):
Nine to five, eight hours outof a 24 hour day, you spend
eight.
If you lucky sleep, you got toget to work.
So if you get there, if yourjob is like mine, you got to get
to work.
Your job is like mine all theway in the city.
I got to be up at seven o'clockto prepare to be at work at
(29:07):
nine o'clock, get to work atnine o'clock, work for four
hours, get an hour break for mylunch, then come back to work,
work another three, four hours,get on the train or I got to
drive that's an hour and a halfcommute back to the crib by the
(29:27):
time I get home.
God forbid.
I had children.
You know I'm speaking for thepeople who got kids, somebody at
home that they have to feed,make a meal, decompress.
It's eight, nine, 10 o'clock,baby.
You got to put the kids to bed,shower, do whatever.
Where is my time and you got todo that for the rest of your
(29:48):
life, until you retire.
Oh, somebody got it wrong.
Somebody got it wrong.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Amen.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Somebody got it wrong somewhere.
Hallelujah, and I'm just sayingthis right now I'm telling
y'all and let me be, let mepreach the word to you Whoever
think that I'm going to do thatfor the rest of my life, my
black ass woman life, mymulti-dimensional Sukaraki, what
I came from.
What a fuck.
(30:15):
I came from life to serve thewhite man.
Dr Ubar five days a week Withjust two days break.
You can't really do nothing forreal on Sunday Because you got
to prepare for the next day thatyou got to go into work.
I'm not.
I'm not doing enough for therest of my life.
So if it's a way I got tofigure out how to do it, and
it's by working remote.
I'm going to do that becausey'all got me fucked up and I'm
(30:37):
not saying that lightly, Ireally do.
I really feel like it's a lotto complain about because, you
know, I was talking to one of mycoworkers and he was like yeah,
you know, like before thepandemic, this was just normal
and people think normal is right.
Yeah, that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Normal is not right.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
If the pandemic has showed us every anything is that
we cannot go back to normal.
There is no normal.
There's no normal now.
There is no new normal.
The change starts with me.
I'm going to change, I'm tryingto help you.
If I got him go into the officemore than I am and they make it
a bigger deal than it is rightnow.
I'm going to look for a new job, and I want to look for a new
(31:16):
job that is fully remote.
I actually might apply for jobsthat don't even have offices in
Chicago, just so they don'teven try to try it on me.
Where's your office located?
So, korea, absolutely, thankyou.
Hey, if I got to work at thenight time just so I can have my
day, how do you not have to beplaying with me?
I'm not coming to nobody office.
(31:37):
I'm telling y'all.
I'm not about to be stressingmyself.
For all that, I don't, I'm notdoing that.
Honestly, I agree with youbecause even if I move closer to
the city.
I'm not stressing myself forthat.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
If I had to go into the office and do all this
stress, I think I can see whypeople quit their job Like
literally they just be like youknow what.
It's okay, I don't even care ifI don't have a job for a minute
.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Yeah, I'll figure it out.
I'll figure it out, I'll runthrough my savings.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
I'll run through it.
I watched this girl back in theday and she was like whatever
job I get for two years, I justlive super frugally.
I live super frugally.
She was like.
And then after like two years,whether I like the company or
not, if I like the company, Ikeep working, but if I don't, I
(32:27):
immediately quit and I just liveoff of my savings until I find
a job that I actually like.
She called it fun employed.
She's like yeah, I get totravel, I get to do everything I
want and I don't have to worryabout shit.
Ever since then I was like Ineed to be that discipline, but
obviously with our lifestyle itnever should go happen.
So I just have to figure out howto make more money, which I
(32:48):
don't think is a challenge.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
I think we will save more money this year, though,
because I'm not going to no moremusic festivals.
I will never Last year we wentto two.
Yeah, two music festivals seemslike a reasonable amount, but I
mean there was a year where wewent to like five, five or six,
five and one year.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
I mean like four, four or five and that's a lot of
money to be dropping.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
That's a lot of money to be dropping, like, like,
honestly, after one music fest.
I don't know if we talked aboutthat experience or not.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
She was a troche of a waste of money.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
A waste of money and I would tell them like to their
faces, waste of like if theyever asked for a survey or just
asked for anybody's honestopinion still never did the Afro
tux over.
Yeah, and it's probably closedright now.
They really got it.
They probably got enough ofeverybody's words, though,
because you know what they aboutblack people.
If we don't have a pleasantexperience, we're gonna let you
(33:38):
know.
You're gonna know.
Yeah, you're gonna know.
You are going to know.
But yeah, I just feel likedreamville was cool, but I just
feel like music festivalsfestivals in general, terrible
are just have just gotten worse,because I feel like it's what
everybody wants to do and it'snot.
(34:00):
It's not as good.
Like we went to one music fest.
Maybe like the second year theyhad it, or like the third year,
like in its beginning stages,the first one we want to.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
We went when they had the 10th anniversary.
That was our first one.
Oh well but either way itwasn't really well known.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
No, no, no, no.
Like we was walking comfortable, we was like being it, we could
breathe, like none of thestages were too packed.
Correct, our Lennox wasperforming at three o'clock,
several Walker was at four.
The first year we went, excuseme.
The last, the last year that wewent before this last one, our
(34:40):
Lennox was one of the headliners, so that just shows you how far
it's come.
They've moved locations.
It's actually like in a wholepark, like a whole ground,
giving Coachella type vibes, andit just wasn't good.
It just wasn't.
It didn't give the same feeling.
And I feel like for this year,when I say money is not the
(35:03):
motivation for me, it's becauseI see what money, when money is
a motivation, I see what it doesto your brand, to your craft,
to your, to you.
Yeah, and I just want to alwayslead on the side of passion and
experience and leave money as asecondary thing, because it's
still important, but not thefirst thing.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
Yeah yeah, you end up going crazy, chasing money.
Yeah yeah, that's, that's,that's 100.
But yeah, I grew with youwholeheartedly.
Yeah that's interesting.
Yeah, I mean, it's not oftenthat people talk about the L's,
but you know.
Speaker 2 (35:41):
Yeah, I mean I'm sure there's other stuff that
happened, like I know but thanksfor sharing, no problem.
Would you, would you like toshare anything that you feel
like was, was, is, is shareworthy that I asked the question
.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
I mean I asked you.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
Do you have an L that you would like to share?
Speaker 1 (36:01):
Uh, I don't know if I have an L.
That's like.
Well, I guess I don't know if Ican consider an L, because I
feel like it's moreself-inflicted.
You feel me.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
What happened?
I just you know so.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
I'll say like this the streets got too hot for your
boy.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
You lost your mind a little bit.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
Lost my mind a little bit.
I mean you got it back, or youget it back, we get it back.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
You get it back.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
So that's but the but .
The streets got too hot foryour boy, and so I, respectfully
I stepped out the streets andnow you on the sidewalk, on the
bench on the park bench, on thepark bench feeding the birds
yeah, yeah, so yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
That was if I really had to be like holistic that
really is is without givingdetail to to his life, because
you know y'all don't, we don'tknow y'all like that for real.
We love you as supporters ofthe show, but as people y'all
could be.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
You don't have to pay for the patron if you really
want the full story and maybethis year we'll do that.
We'll start, or maybe I'llwrite it in a memoir one day a
book, a TV show on your life?
Probably better as a TV show.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
You need a TV.
I think Deji needs a TV show onhis life, but I feel like they
are you just saying that or doyou actually?
Speaker 1 (37:09):
are you dead as serious?
Speaker 2 (37:11):
I feel like sure, why not?
Speaker 1 (37:15):
What would make it seem that I need to have a TV
show on my life because of thecircumstances that I be going
through?
Speaker 2 (37:20):
or yeah, it would be, it be a dramedy.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
It definitely would be a dramedy.
Yeah, it has to be.
I feel like I'd have to ourcomedy drama whatever it would
have to have some elementssecure.
I'm a drum, I'm a dramaticperson.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
I realized that the other day we both are our mother
sits home and watches Nigerianmovies and Nigerian news every
day.
So, we're a product of that,which is great because I guess.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
I guess I mean, I do have some moments, like when I,
when I, when I we went for theinterview for Motorola.
Yeah that's episode.
That's a pilot.
I told you that's a pilot rightthere.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
Yeah, no, that would get you picked up for a season
for show.
I could you pick up for atleast at least 10 episodes for
show.
But, I just feel like therearen't a lot of shows or a lot
of instances where you see blackmen as like multi dimensional.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Yeah, currently not that.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
I'm like watching TV or studying TV shows, but I feel
like that's a place that hasnot been tapped into a lot and
not sitcom, like literally, likeinsecure, but the main
character is a guy Is black butthen like maybe the supporting
characters or like the mainwoman in, like the main person.
(38:39):
That's not.
The main character is a woman,but I just feel like they have
shows like that, they've hadshows like that and they've not
done successful or they've notgone past like a first season or
something so like what grandcrew.
There was another show on BETthat only had like one or two
seasons.
That was like based on 30, somethings.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
I did not know.
Those are the only two I canthink of.
Yeah, I did not know that.
But yeah, that's interesting tohear you say that.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
Yeah, I mean, I just like black content.
Like I, I'm a firm believer andnot even watching movies or TV
shows that don't have blackcharacters on.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
I agree, I agree with you.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
I definitely was annoying because, like my work,
my job is television.
I work yeah, I work for TV, butI also work for, like in my
team we do like a movie club andwe pick a movie and we watch it
and review it and I'm like Irecommended them.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
One of your movies that you know.
Do that movie.
Yeah, it was a good movie.
Speaker 2 (39:35):
Yeah it was a foreign film.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Yes, yeah, because you know you got to double.
But yeah, I mean that's theonly L I can really think of.
Speaker 2 (39:44):
You know, I just I played in the street enough to
wear like the L had its baby.
Else the big L had lower chase.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
Right, right, right, but you know that was so so long
ago.
I guess that means we shouldtransition into this year.
But I mean, I'm not really oneof those people that like to
talk about the year.
I'm just going to say it verysimply Y'all just going to see
what y'all see.
(40:11):
I don't really, I don't reallywant to talk about it, I don't
really want to get y'all it'snot even bugging Y'all hopes up.
If you're going to be tuned in,be tuned in and watch the
manifestation of whatever iscoming.
And that's it.
Truth be told, I don't want tobe like, well, we got a lot of
things in the place.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
We really don't have nothing planned for real, but
just know that, like we are,we're going to put some things
in motion Like why not?
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
What do we got?
Speaker 1 (40:37):
to lose Nothing.
But, not really.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
But I say we could get it back.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
The only reason why I say that is because I know for
a fact we could probably dosomething in like a couple of
weeks, because you know I haveand yeah, you know, life is life
is life.
But let's get to the nextsegment of the show.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
Oh, are we done with 2024?
Speaker 1 (41:02):
What 2023?
What else is there to talkabout?
Speaker 2 (41:04):
Nothing really.
I feel like you know we, ohyeah, we're not keeping it
regular.
We're not keeping it regularand talking about goals and and
we're to look forward, to justkeep eye out.
Yeah, okay, what's that that'sfine.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
Yeah, keep the energy , you know.
Yeah, I just when you, when yousee me and you see me.
What's the name of this?
Speaker 2 (41:27):
No go ahead.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
What's the song Y'all know?
I don't know lyrics.
Can somebody help me?
Speaker 2 (41:32):
Period.
When you see me and you see me,and you see me, and you see me,
and you see me, and you see me.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
The song, the theme, the beat is going on in my head,
so I know the song.
I just don't know the lyrics tothe song Ski no.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Um, it was not that.
No, it wasn't.
If you see me and you trying tosee what's up ski.
Speaker 1 (41:57):
It was not that song.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Okay, what the hell are you talking about I?
Speaker 1 (42:00):
don't know.
That's why I tell you you know,I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
the next segment of the show is.
It's been so long I don't evenremember what the next segment
is.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
That's the point.
What's the order?
Three episodes in 2023.
Y'all yeah.
At least we kept the number.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
Well, at least we was doing stuff.
If y'all follow us on socialmedia.
We was giving you content.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Yeah, that's, very true.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
But what's the next segment?
Is it get on intellectual or isit things I send DG on Twitter?
Speaker 1 (42:27):
You do things.
I send DG on Twitter last.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
Okay, so get an intellectual question for you
and I.
I like to get a lot of myghetto intellectual questions
from things I see on Twitterwhich is unrelated to the things
I send DG on Twitter, becausenot everything I see do I send.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
But she hasn't been sending a lot of shit to me?
Yeah, just because.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
I just need to keep it there so that way, when it's
time for us to record all theseepisodes, we have stuff to look
at.
And I can ask DG, why do youthink I sent you this?
But today, the ghettointellectual is this, and it's a
video I saw of a girl Just thisvideo I just was watching right
here.
This girl was saying that shewould never let a man get her
(43:08):
off her square in front ofanother girl.
So basically, what happened isa girl on TikTok was talking
about her and her ex, like likeI mean, her and her boyfriend
saw his ex in the apartmentcomplex.
Apparently they both live inthe apartment complex, not
together, but she was coming infrom her getting her food and
the boyfriend and the girl and anew girlfriend was sitting on
(43:31):
the couch.
He was calling for her.
The girl the ex was acting likeshe didn't know, like she just
like paid him no mind, and thegirl, who was like oh yeah, I
pay him no mind she was like webreak up every all the time.
We've been off and on for ayear and a half or a year, Like
we broke up 48 hours ago.
(43:52):
Now.
The question that is for theghetto intellectuals is this Is
there two birds in thissituation or just one?
Are there two birds in thissituation or one?
And which bird is the biggestbird?
(44:13):
If you think it's two and ifit's only one, which one is the
bird?
Speaker 1 (44:21):
So the person that is the bird?
I believe that there's only one.
It's the girl that's talkingabout it.
Speaker 2 (44:27):
Trick question the bird is the nigga.
Speaker 1 (44:29):
Why?
Oh, okay, sorry, I was gonnasay why no, if it was me and I
feel like I feel like this islike a very college thing.
I don't even think grown peopledo this all the time.
I was just actually having aconversation with one of my
homegirls and I said I thinkit's been harder to date for me
(44:53):
because I don't come with thatmuch drama and I don't think a
lot of black women under I'm notgonna say anything about I'm
not gonna say anything.
I was just gonna say I don'tthink a lot of black women know
how to deal with men who don'tdeal with conflict.
So meaning that if you arecoming from a place of peace and
(45:17):
positivity and a healthystandpoint in a relationship, I
don't think most black womendon't know how to deal without
there being conflict, meaningthey're used to toxicity and
trash ass motherfuckers.
Not saying that I'm great, isthat why?
Speaker 2 (45:32):
you feel like you failed in the relationships that
you had Because the women don'tknow how to deal with it.
Speaker 1 (45:38):
No, no actually I wasn't.
Oh, you making a leap, I'm justtrying to figure out what
you're saying so what I was justtrying to say is I don't think
most women know how to be with agood man, because most of the
time they.
Because we were getting intothe discussion of and I was
telling her this, I said I hatewhen girls say niggas ain't shit
, but then you still continue tofuck with niggas.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
I mean because that's what they like.
I'm supposed to give up.
Speaker 1 (46:04):
No, no, no, I know.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
FreshFriars.
Not good for me, but I'ma keepeating FreshFriars.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
You don't keep saying so the thing that what I was
trying to tell her is that, likeyou're already biased and jaded
when you come into Ah, okay,okay.
Speaker 2 (46:17):
so you have to lead with positivity if you want
positivity is what you're tryingto say.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
No, I was trying to say that you can't say that men
aren't shit, because that's Iwas like I could easily say that
women ain't shit.
But what does that do for me?
Does that mean I'm gonna findthe person for me?
How does that mean?
How do I walk in therelationship?
That's what I was trying totell her, because you can't say
this person's, this whole entire.
Speaker 2 (46:42):
Maybe she wants you to prove her wrong, but I'm also
not for proving yourself in ourrelationship.
Like don't try to test me, youknow, or don't try to you know.
Like, of course, like make mebelieve in love, but don't test
me for show.
Speaker 1 (46:56):
Well, I don't even think you should make your
partner believe in love, so I'mon this whole thing.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
You already need to believe in it before.
Speaker 1 (47:02):
yeah, correct just because, at the end of the day,
I'm tired of this whole ideologythat people need to earn
people's love.
We all know how to love.
Love is not something that youtake and give.
That's why I think the problemis in most relationships.
But to circle back and get tothe main point, the reason why I
(47:23):
said that is because, well, inthis situation it seemed like
Buddy has moved on.
Speaker 2 (47:30):
He hasn't.
He's playing both of them.
I said he the bird becauseyou're playing two girls.
Speaker 1 (47:35):
Why are you sitting with one girl?
Speaker 2 (47:37):
She the bird she is the bird.
Which one?
Speaker 1 (47:39):
The one that's the curve the one that spoke on it,
if you know.
Speaker 2 (47:42):
They both spoke on it , though the one made the first,
I don't know what the first.
Speaker 1 (47:45):
So then they both.
Actually I didn't know that, sothat's two birds, two birds,
that's two birds.
Speaker 2 (47:51):
If it's two birds, which is the biggest bird?
Speaker 1 (47:52):
So then I don't feel bad anymore.
I felt bad for the girl becauseI was like I think that's not
college.
That's every day.
Speaker 2 (48:01):
It do sound like some college shit, though, cause why
are you living?
Why are you in the samebuilding as your niggas?
Speaker 1 (48:05):
Because it's cheap.
Speaker 2 (48:08):
Or just because they maybe they met, like because
they live, they both lived there.
Speaker 1 (48:11):
It's cheap, affordable, rent it's hard.
Speaker 2 (48:13):
I feel like it is a college thing though, but anyway
I feel like this person.
I feel like it's two birds.
Both y'all bitches is birds,and I'm calling y'all bitches
because I'm a woman as well.
Both y'all bitches is birds.
Why would you be with a nigga?
And he called as soon as hewould have said the girl name,
and I knew that was it Wait?
Speaker 1 (48:28):
he called the ex in front of the other girl.
Speaker 2 (48:30):
Like she was getting a drink out the convenience
store, cause their apartment hasa convenience store which makes
me believe that it's collegecause.
Speaker 1 (48:36):
Nah, some of the newer luxury joints have that.
Speaker 2 (48:38):
Yeah, but either way, I was just like, oh, she was,
yeah, and he was and she waspaying him no mind.
But she was like, yeah, likethat's my ex, we break up every
other.
I'm not doing too much back andforth to back and forth, get
together, break up with, butespecially if he got a new bitch
, so he having sex with you, hehaving sex with her Too much,
two birds killing both with thesame stone.
Yeah, yeah yeah, so that's thewhole point I was trying to get
(49:00):
at.
To get an intellectual answeris two birds killing both with
one stone.
Speaker 1 (49:03):
Got you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So then let me ask you thisCause.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
we gotta eliminate all the birds.
Speaker 1 (49:07):
So let me ask you this If you cut it with somebody
.
I'm a chicken.
Well, actually, you believe inspinning the block, right?
Speaker 2 (49:15):
I do, why not?
I believe in spinning the block, but I believe it has to make
sense, like if you can just makea U turn or you could just make
a three point turn, why do youneed to spin the whole block?
You know what I mean.
But like it has to make senseand I feel like we can talk
about that because that's notthe ghetto intellectual question
we can make spinning the block.
I can explain to you turn in awide turn to you.
Speaker 1 (49:35):
Then I be in the exit .
I don't go back.
I don't go back.
Speaker 2 (49:44):
I hit One way.
It's the one way.
Speaker 1 (49:46):
I hit an exit.
Speaker 2 (49:47):
It's the one way on your block.
Speaker 1 (49:48):
Yeah, if we cut.
Speaker 2 (49:49):
We live on a circle, so it go in a circle.
So you can spin the block.
Speaker 1 (49:52):
I learned my lesson If we cut, we cut Sure.
Whatever you say, Shorty, Iwould buy my own, but Shumbo,
you didn't even hear me say it.
I needed to say it one time.
Let's do things.
You sent me on Twitter.
Speaker 2 (50:07):
This is how I sent you on Twitter.
Oh, my goodness, it's been sothat you's taking the social
media hiatus, so I have justbeen sending you so many things
on.
Twitter and I just wanted tosay what is this one thing?
Speaker 1 (50:18):
Yes, I have been on a hiatus, I've been in my Me
having meetings with myself todiscuss my rebrand.
Oh yeah, I saw this.
I think this is very obvious Ifanybody has been following me
on social media.
I'm in the midst of a rebrand.
I have deleted all my pictures.
Another one you know, life'sthe evolution I have.
(50:39):
I have deleted all my pictures.
I'm literally living by thephilosophy.
If you knew me in the last twoto three years, I don't know who
you knew, because that is nolonger me.
On top of that, I'm rebrandingmost of my side hustles, so you
should watch out for that,especially my shoe business.
Speaker 2 (51:00):
But yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
I be going through rebrands, cause for me, every
time I go through a rebrand,that means I'm reaching another
iteration, another evolution ofmyself.
So if that's the case, y'alldon't know me and y'all never
did, and we never dated and wenever had relations.
I'm a virgin.
I'm celibate.
Speaker 2 (51:23):
Well, I mean, it is the second, so your wholeness
has been deleted.
Zero bodies is what everybodyis starting at, and happy new
year to you.
Thank you for listening toNothing but A G Thing.

Speaker 1 (52:43):
So we crazy Death grow against the label that pays

So please don't try to fakethis.
But I'm back to the lecture athand.
Because ain't nothing but a cheap bang, bang, bang To
blow them jeans.
So we crazy Death grown getsthe label that pays man
Unfaithful.
So please don't try to fakethis.
But I'm back to the lecture athand.
Back to the lecture, or legend,at hand.
What's good with y'all.
(00:22):
There was a time where I used tolove, love, love, love, love
New Year's Eve, like I used totry to get out the house quick,
fast and in a hurry andtypically when I did that it was
just because I was trying toget fucked up.
You know, like, for whateverreason, I don't know why, as a
(00:44):
country we decide that the lastday of the year Some of us is
gonna drink till we can't drinkno more and you know be all over
the place, you know throwing up, doing all whatever.
But this year was different.
This year I was in the crib, Ikicked back, I enjoyed the peace
(01:09):
, the relaxation.
Honestly, I just enjoyed notbeing outside, because I feel
like I've been outside all year.
I like to tell people now thatI'm no longer outside, I'm just
sitting on the park bench.
But yeah, you know, with thenew year happening, it would
(01:32):
only be right for Day G and Yemito talk about Not knowing who
year's goals resolution cause.
That's corny To you.
It's corny to everybody thathas a podcast.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
To you.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
It's corny to everybody that has a podcast.
But yeah, we're talking aboutthe new year, we're talking
about the amalgamation that was2023 and we're gonna talk about
what to expect in 2024.
Hopefully it doesn't bore you,but I know I'm already knowing
(02:13):
that it won't.
That's why y'all here, that'swhy we love y'all.
Just a quick update.
I know we were terrible atposting our publishing content,
but I'll just give you a quickstat.
We posted three episodes in2023.
I know terrible, but thosethree episodes got over 2500
(02:38):
downloads.
So shout out to y'all If y'allwant quick math.
That's about 786, 790-ish perepisode that y'all tuned in to
us, with the highest listenepisode with almost 18,000
downloads, or 1800 downloadsbeing getting left by Day G
(03:00):
again.
So it's a common theme, it'snot a common theme.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
It makes sense that that's the highest, because
people love to hear stories ofabandonment I think.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
That's what it is.
I never left you.
Yemi always likes to steal likeshe'd be left out for good, for
dead, but in a lot of ways wecould say that you have
surpassed me this year.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Well, I wouldn't say so necessarily, because I don't
really know.
I'm not in competition, we'renot in competition, it's not
about competition.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I just think that there are some things that you
did this year that like, okay,everybody thought that it would
be something I did, but youended up doing it, not in like a
bad way.
I say this because for thelongest time, niggas and the
family been calling me theLeBron, like I'm supposed to get
everybody out of poverty, butwe was never.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
You were supposed to get us out.
You were supposed to use thatbasketball football.
You're supposed to use thatfootball stuff that you do to
get us out the hood.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
See what I'm saying, see what I'm saying, see what
I'm saying.
And now I'm over here sayingthat you have surpassed me this
year.
And now you over here talkingabout some well, Niggas love to
be humble, but I don't love tobe humble, excuse me.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I just like to be realistic.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Okay, so what was unrealistic about what I said?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
I don't think I'm there yet what does that mean?
Speaker 1 (04:22):
I don't think I'm there.
I don't even think I'm in.
I told you this I don't eventhink I'm in my bag.
This year actually taught mehow much I'm not even in my bag
2023?
.
Yeah, because I did holisticallygood year.
Obviously, the end of the yearwas a little bit rough, but
holistically, it was such atreat to live 2023.
(04:45):
For me.
It's very weird and verysurreal when you think about the
type of person that you'vealways wanted to be in life and
then you actually are living andactualizing that in real time.
But you're actually awareenough to actually know that.
And that's what the first half,the first almost seven, eight
(05:07):
months of 2023 was.
I was really living as abeautiful black man.
Why not?
Yeah, I was having a time.
I was really in, I had a glowabout myself.
I was just filled with so muchgratitude.
(05:29):
Amen, yeah, so that's what I'msaying.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Gratitude.
Why can't that be the name ofthe episode?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Probably because we already used it.
Maybe, so but yeah, that's kindof what 2023 was.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
At least the beginning of it.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
You said yeah, towards the end very, very, very
rough polar opposites.
But you know, we live and welearn 180.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yeah for the people who began to mess up with 360.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, because that means you're in the same spot.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
That means you're in the same spot.
Which is, I mean, if you end upin the same spot, there ain't
no problem, because no progressis not negative progress.
Yeah, sure, we can say that,but yeah, 2020, but is negative
progress?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
a oxymoron.
Negative progress is the end ofoxymoron, and that's if you're
going backwards.
So then, that is an oxymoron,which you just said yes.
But I guess what you're sayingis that it can be negative as
long as it's not where youstarted from.
You feel me Like when they sayyou take two steps forward.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Exactly, exactly that .
That's where I was getting atwith that one.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So then, the question I guess I would have to pose it
to you is 2023, what was it foryou?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
I think it was a cluster F, cluster F.
I feel like it was all over theplace.
I feel like, as I was doing myend of year reflection, how long
do you do for your end of yearreflection?
How long I'm going to keepreflecting, I feel like, until
(07:06):
the first quarter is over.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
That's valid.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I feel like for me, I was sitting with myself Like
yesterday, the day beforeyesterday, and I was like I wish
I was journaling 2023.
Because, it would have beengood to look back at the year
and be able to pinpoint specificdays.
(07:32):
Where I felt one way or where Ifelt another, because when you
look back at the year, the onlything you really have is maybe
your photos, memories, and Iwould love to be able to tap
back, or would have loved to beable to tap back into the
emotion or just being in thisspace that I was at and feeling
that or looking back at it.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
That's a very good point.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
So I think this year one thing I want to focus on is
journaling.
It might not be an everydaything, but when I feel the
spirit of getting stuff out Imight go run to Twitter, because
sometimes that's what I tend todo.
But then you're limited, youknow.
(08:16):
Twitter is only how manycharacters?
And you're limited because youdon't want to say certain things
, because you don't want peopleto judge you.
Yeah, I don't want people in mybusiness, so I really want to be
intentional with writing stuffdown and getting it out and then
reflecting.
So yeah because I don't reallyremember too much of like I know
(08:38):
what happened because I wasthere, but being able to be like
, oh, on this day, at this time,I was feeling this and it was
because it is.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
And I don't feel like that.
2023 was more like.
I hate to say it, but in a lotof ways 2023 lived me.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
I saw something on Twitter was like For 2024, I'm
not being good, the year need tobe good to me, or some shit
like that, like I'm not doingtoo much Because the year need
to prove itself to me, becauseyeah, type shit, like I try my
best, the year need to try itsbest too this year, something
along those lines.
But yeah, I feel that.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Yeah, I only say that because, towards the end of
2023, I realized how many peoplewas actually going through it
in my immediate life and I waslike, damn, what the hell are we
all going through shit at thesame time, like what is it about
life that has us all strugglingemotionally, mentally,
(09:39):
physically, financially,spiritually, any forms of it?
And I just feel like, yeah, itwas that first year that it was
completely, 100%, normal.
All breaks was off and peoplewas living a life, we was out
(09:59):
and about, we was having a time.
But I was tired and, like April, I'm not gonna hold you.
I was tired in April and then Ijust found a way to carry it
through.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
I feel like it hit me in like October.
I remember before that.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
I was cashed by May, like literally, I was thinking
about it, I was like I wasgiving myself, I was giving
myself a little to no time.
That's why I said it was sointeresting that you said you
journaled.
I wish I would have journaledat those moments where I was
like, wow, I really set out tobe everything that I thought I
(10:40):
was gonna become, but then, onthe flip side, see how fast the
decline happened because I wasspreading myself too thin,
because that would have been aninteresting journey to see from
a day-to-day perspective.
But I guess it is what it is.
You know we live and we learn.
You know, as I go through thisthing called the Saturn Return.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Fact, in 2023, I entered mine.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
So yeah, and my Saturn Return has been a
motherfucker honestly 2024, dgturns 30.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Yeah, tunde turns 40.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
He turns.
Yeah, he does turn 40.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
He does so it's big stuff coming up the, and I wanna
use that as like motivation orlike as like.
Let this year be serendipitousin a way, right like for
whatever I don't know, like forlike accomplishments, for
(11:37):
success, for like recognition,for enjoyment for life, for love
, for light.
Let this be the year 2024,because, like 20, like yo, yo,
yo, yo Elders brother is turning40,.
That's a milestone.
I don't know what they call it,if it's like a Jubilee or like
(12:00):
a Diamond.
I think those are a little bitolder, but it's a celebration.
Like that's a big deal.
And then you're turning 30,which is also a big deal.
So I think, like, let this yearbe the culmination of like
amazing things and we get tocelebrate them for, and not the
(12:20):
only thing we celebrate bebirthdays.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Amen.
Amen In Jesus' name, BecauseI'm just turning another year
older, but I mean.
I'm definitely looking forwardto 30.
I've been telling people foryears I could never, I could not
have waited long enough, butalso I've been enjoying my 20s.
I feel like people be like oh,the 30s is where you finally
have.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Take off.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
I was like, if that's the case, I don't even know
where I'm gonna be.
Right, that's a fact 30, yousay that's when you start
getting your money, and I waslike, well, I've already, I've
already been getting my money,but we still have more to go,
but we still have way more to go.
Yeah, so it's interesting,because now I look at it very
holistically and we just take itday by day.
(13:03):
But yeah, no, 30 is.
It's gonna be a time you knowwhat I'm saying when we doing
what we need to do throughoutthe course of this year and it
starts to build and it starts tocompound on itself.
I already know I'm built for it.
I just wanna make sure that Iget to a standpoint where, again
, at the end of the day, nobodyis ever gonna be checking for me
(13:28):
, right, which I understand.
But I think the most importantthing is that if I'm not
checking for myself, what am Ireally doing?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
in this world.
You know what I'm saying.
Yeah, you gotta, you gotta yougotta make sure you write with
it.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Correct, you know my home girl, lauren Lauren.
What's her name?
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I don't think that's your home girl if you don't know
her name.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Lauren Hill.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Home girl Lauren Hill .
She said I gotta get my pieceof mine.
Is that the name of the song?
I gotta get my piece of?
No, huh, anyways, let's move on.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I thought you was going with how you gonna win if
you write with I ain't rightwith it.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Ain't right with it.
How you gonna win if you ain'tright with it?
Cause I gotta find my it allyou got it, but yeah, no, I mean
the piece of mine is Hunky door, but what would?
I would say, because I don'twant to be too corny what is a
moment in 2023 that doesn't,that doesn't involve you, that
(14:35):
you really enjoyed this year?
Yeah, you see how I got her,cause she only tend to only
think about herself.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Well, you answer the question for yourself and then
maybe I can use your answer toanswer the question.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
No, that's not how it work, ladies first.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I don't even think about Ladies first.
So like something good thathappened in somebody else's life
.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
That you were a part of.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Yes, yeah, but you just said that I wouldn't have
been a part of.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
No, I said that you weren't a part of meaning.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That I had nothing to do with.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Yeah, it wasn't about you is what I was trying to say
when I wasn't the maincharacter Correct.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
I don't know.
I was going to say my niece, myniece, birthday party.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
What do we do for a birthday party?

The kids are all right, some ofthem, not all of them, because
I just seen a video of somebabies wrapping on.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Then baby daddy, and then we did the trampoline park.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Yeah, but yeah, I mean the kids are so biased.

Nothing to really talk about.
I mean, I'll probably saw it onInstagram, honestly, and if you
didn't, you need to befollowing us on Instagram
because I'm confused and YouTubeas well, but if not, you could
(16:49):
always catch up on YouTube.
There was a lot going on.
Like Amy said, it was very mucha cluster F.
Yeah, that was.
I felt like for the first time,for the first year out of the
pandemic, people didn't know howto act.
That wasn't this year, though?
No, it was the first year whereeverything was like Back open,
(17:10):
yeah, back open.
There was no regulation, nostipulations, it was like it was
up up.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
The bulletinations was off.
Yes, correct, it was, nothingwas off.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
OK, so what was your favorite trip?
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Not even relations that we took this year.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Probably Puerto Rico, but Afro Tech Afro.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Tech, the experience, yeah, wow Amazing.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
It was a good experience, like it was good for
, like, just like Out of openingyou know what I mean, Like
putting things in perspectiveshowing what life could be, you
know, but also like setting.
I think it was a catalyst forinspiration.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
For what exactly?
What is the inspiration you'retalking about?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Just like get into the bag Okay If I'm speaking in
baddie's terms so just likebeing like a network or a
socialite, somebody who's a movemaker for lack of a better
words Like and also just DJoutside of Chicago, like in
reaching a different audience adifferent market because I feel
(18:23):
like there is a lot ofredundancy and that's no shade,
but I just feel like for me, Idon't want to be just a Chicago
DJ.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
So I want to be outside.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
And I feel like being able to DJ somewhere that was
not Chicago did wonders for mybrain and also, hopefully, how
so.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Cause.
Now I'm thinking like, okay,where can I go to next?
Cause?
Also cause one of my goals forthe for the for 2023 was to DJ
outside of Chicago and I didthat only once, but you know
it's a check.
If I had a list, I don't knowif I actually wrote anything
down, but if I had a list thatwas on there for sure.
So this year it's likefestivals and also continuing to
(19:04):
DJ outside of Chicago andtouching places that I have not
been before, even in Chicago.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
I love that.
I love that.
That pertains to.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
DJ, I don't really care too much about the money.
Yes, the money is great, butI'm trying to.
I know that the money will come, so right now I'm focused on,
like, really expanding andbuilding my reach.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Hmm, okay.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Kind of like a little .
Well, I mean, did you?
Speaker 2 (19:36):
say what was your happy moment that wasn't related
to you, where you weren't themain character?
Speaker 1 (19:42):
You didn't ask me so.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I'm asking you now my favorite, that's actually a
really good question, thoughlike to ask other people to see,
like, how they think.
Yeah, but I bet you wouldprobably be, for a lot of people
family related, like forsomething that happened with
their family.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
I told you mine, though you know it, it was when
we was at Afro Tech.
Oh, because?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
of me.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
No.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
So how is that unrelated to you?
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Oh wait, I was a main character in that moment, but
we shared that moment together,so I didn't make it.
We were both main characters inthat situation.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Then that does not.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Okay, that does not count.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Okay, I'm okay with that being your risk, because it
still has something to do withme and you know I love me.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
but if you want to pick something else, but that's
fine, I can pick something elsebecause, you're right, my
favorite moment where I was notthe main character would
probably have been yeah, it wasPuerto Rico.
I think when we went to PuertoRico, it was probably the height
of me being so stressed out, atleast the peak of it.
(20:44):
I didn't know it at the time,but work was really getting to
me.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Like you were working on the trip.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yeah, but the times where I was not working and I
was actually able to the timeswhere I was not working, I was
actually able to engage.
No, I had a really fun time,especially the last day.
The last day where I was notworking, I was not doing nothing
, I was like.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Yeah, we literally woke up, went straight to the
excursion, was almost left bythe bus Because it was taken too
long.
Because when they say 9.30 onexcursions, they mean 9.25.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
And my stomach was acting up that whole time, was
it?
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Is that why we was late?
Because you was on the toilet.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
No, that was not me.
That was not me.
That was not me that made uslate.
I was in that bus waiting, butyeah, I was.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I was just so upset because I bought the waterproof
camera like phone cases.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
And you forgot.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
And I left them in the fucking.
I was so mad about that BecauseI would have been cool to get
it.
Yeah, to be able to have yourphone, which also, like we was
in a moment.
We was in a moment.
I remember that moment veryvividly.
Yeah, I won't forget that.
No, because that was fun, likejust being in nature, in the
jungle, really.
Where I'm from, because you'renot from the jungle for real.
(22:00):
Sure, sure, so being amongstthe trees and the leaves and the
soil Sure In the water.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah, yeah, that water, the water was fun Jumping
off the.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I always want to make sure for my birthday buy water,
because I am a cancer and Ifeel like water in the ocean and
bodies of water grounds meMeans absolutely.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Now, I'm just joking, hey, no, it was when you start
talking about your Jesus, we letyou.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
We let you Excuse me.
When you start talking aboutyour Jesus.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Don't come from.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
When you start talking about your Bible.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
When do I talk about my Bible?
When you?
Speaker 2 (22:39):
start talking about your disciples.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Who are my disciples?
I'm not.
I'm not God.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
All 12 of them.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
OK, right.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I'm your homies when you start talking about John
Jacob, jingo Hymer Smiths.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Jesus, do not shun her, for she does not know what
she is talking about.
No, please, I got peoplepraying for me.
Let them keep praying for me.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
I've been winning.
Man I've been losing too.
I'm OK with admitting you knowtook a couple of L's, I think
it's life.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Oh, so what was your?
Speaker 2 (23:07):
If you don't mind sharing what was your biggest L,
you don't have to get intodetail, but you could be as I
won't talk about it in detail,but I did feel like there was a
moment of I mean, I feel likefor me, I think personally,
anytime there's like somethingthat happens in Chicago when it
(23:31):
comes to DJing and I don't getthe call for the opportunity,
I'm like damn, especially whenit comes to DJing.
I feel like, if I feel likeit's an event that I know I
would, kill kill, kill, or Iwould like, would love to be a
part of it for me.
I feel a little bit about that,but I'm like you know, like
what's for me will be for me.
But I do feel, especially whenI see it going to people, that I
(23:55):
know or that I feel personallydon't have the genocide quality
as Suke Jesus has, becausenobody has that.
But I feel like I'm at the, I'mat the position now in it's
just because, like, what do I dooutside of, like working in
DJing, just like living life,and that's why you're here,
because you know that's what wedo.
So yeah so I just feel like forme right now, where I am in my
(24:18):
career, I want to be in theposition to, and I want to be in
those spaces.
I want to be in those positions.
I want to be doing that becausethat's why I feel like I am,
and the only person or peoplestopping me from doing that are
the people who don't the events.
So it's like I was having aconversation excuse me with
another DJ friend of mine.
She has like over 10 Kfollowers on Instagram and she's
(24:42):
like, yeah, like this DJingstuff is so political, like you
could have all the followers andpeople still won't book you
because, like it's about whothey want to DJ their parties
and I'm not kissing no ass, it'sno D, but no, no, no position,
it's really not, it's not thatbecause, hey, I still got my day
(25:03):
job that I'm going to complainabout.
right after this, when I tellyou this story, I'm going to
tell you another L, but yeah, Ijust feel like for me that's,
that's that.
So, yeah, I just feel like, youknow, sometimes I've been
thinking I'm being slided, butpeople aren't thinking about me.
So hopefully this year 2024.
So Jesus is a name that peopleare considering.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
How am?
Speaker 2 (25:22):
I going to get there?
How am I going to do that?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I don't know but I got motion.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
I have 12 months to figure it out.
Shout out to motion.
We got, motion we got motion,big motion.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah, we got motion.
You're funny, you definitelygot motion.
I don't I feel like ifeverything it doesn't even need
to go as planned.
But I think if you, if youaccept the risk and you're
willing to be patient, I thinkyou'll be pleasantly surprised.
I definitely think you will.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
I'm not really a patient person.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
So it's a hard thing to learn.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I know patient.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
It's a hard thing to learn, it's the thing.
It's the thing.
But you had another L to sharewith the people.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I was just going to say I, not L, but a moment where
I felt humbled and we wastalking about this yesterday,
when we was driving home fromChina Buffet, because that's
what we do on New Year's hey,I'll go with China Buffet.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
I'll give it a go.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
And this China Buffet .
We don't have to tell a storyabout this for a different day.
We don't tell a story aboutthis China Buffet for a
different day because my friendswe got to talk about our China
Bay.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
We used to.
We got to talk about our ChinaBuffet.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
We're going to make an episode dedicated to China
Buffets and Buffets.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
We might have to do it straight into China Buffet.
I swear for you.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
No, we're not going to bring no mics to China Buffet
.
I just we're going to make atick tock because my friend was
saying that we need to make atick tock about that.
Regardless, regardless,regardless, regardless of how
far along you get in your career, there will always be a moment
where somebody who is Um titledto be ahead of you or titled to
(26:47):
not be your equal, we'll try tohumble you.
Oh well, I did.
So that's not.
I mean, it's not really thatbig of a deal.
But, like everybody knows, Ilove going into the office and I
feel like I'm getting to thepoint now where I know that you
know some of the stuff that I'dbe doing with first world
problems, like some of the stuff, a lot of the stuff that I'd be
complaining about.
(27:08):
Like, girl, you live a lifethat many would envy.
So I'm not acknowledging, I'mnot like dismissing my own
feelings, because I know that mylife is a little bit better
than somebody else's, cause youknow that's one thing that your
parents will do.
Or, you know, just likesomething that'll even teach you
in therapy.
You know cause you go there.
(27:28):
Um, like, I'm not dismissing myfeelings, but I'm just saying
like, girl, you know whatever,like just do this, you know
we'll get your check and move on.
But it's just a little annoyingto me that there's someone who's
pressing something that I feellike has no bearing on my job
and it's going into the office.
Yeah, like I don't.
(27:49):
I don't think that it's avaluable use of my time.
To be quite honest, I feel likeit does not make a difference
in the work that I do, the workthat I'm capable of doing, and I
really think that it does more,um, bad than good for me.
To be quite honest, like evenwhen I say that it sounds like a
girl, like well, hey, youcomplain because you got to go
(28:09):
into the office two days a week.
But, yes, I'm complainingbecause I have to go on two days
a week because that's like, ifyou think about it like this,
friends and I've been to get onmy soapbox for a quick date.
You can chime in when you needto, but if I'm going, don't you
know don't try to.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
You know, keep rocking, keep rocking.
You know, keep rocking.
I'm going.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
just agree with me, don't try to interject.
Going ahead, that's what all I'msaying is this Whoever created
here, for fuck nigga, if I evergo to your grave I might piss on
it.
I don't know if I justcommitted a crime by saying that
, but all I'm saying is nine tofive, five days out of seven
days out the week.
Oh, that shit is crazy.
(28:46):
Nine to five, eight hours outof a 24 hour day, you spend
eight.
If you lucky sleep, you got toget to work.
So if you get there, if yourjob is like mine, you got to get
to work.
Your job is like mine all theway in the city.
I got to be up at seven o'clockto prepare to be at work at
(29:07):
nine o'clock, get to work atnine o'clock, work for four
hours, get an hour break for mylunch, then come back to work,
work another three, four hours,get on the train or I got to
drive that's an hour and a halfcommute back to the crib by the
(29:27):
time I get home.
God forbid.
I had children.
You know I'm speaking for thepeople who got kids, somebody at
home that they have to feed,make a meal, decompress.
It's eight, nine, 10 o'clock,baby.
You got to put the kids to bed,shower, do whatever.
Where is my time and you got todo that for the rest of your
(29:48):
life, until you retire.
Oh, somebody got it wrong.
Somebody got it wrong.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Amen.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Somebody got it wrong somewhere.
Hallelujah, and I'm just sayingthis right now I'm telling
y'all and let me be, let mepreach the word to you Whoever
think that I'm going to do thatfor the rest of my life, my
black ass woman life, mymulti-dimensional Sukaraki, what
I came from.
What a fuck.
(30:15):
I came from life to serve thewhite man.
Dr Ubar five days a week Withjust two days break.
You can't really do nothing forreal on Sunday Because you got
to prepare for the next day thatyou got to go into work.
I'm not.
I'm not doing enough for therest of my life.
So if it's a way I got tofigure out how to do it, and
it's by working remote.
I'm going to do that becausey'all got me fucked up and I'm
(30:37):
not saying that lightly, Ireally do.
I really feel like it's a lotto complain about because, you
know, I was talking to one of mycoworkers and he was like yeah,
you know, like before thepandemic, this was just normal
and people think normal is right.
Yeah, that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Normal is not right.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
If the pandemic has showed us every anything is that
we cannot go back to normal.
There is no normal.
There's no normal now.
There is no new normal.
The change starts with me.
I'm going to change, I'm tryingto help you.
If I got him go into the officemore than I am and they make it
a bigger deal than it is rightnow.
I'm going to look for a new job, and I want to look for a new
(31:16):
job that is fully remote.
I actually might apply for jobsthat don't even have offices in
Chicago, just so they don'teven try to try it on me.
Where's your office located?
So, korea, absolutely, thankyou.
Hey, if I got to work at thenight time just so I can have my
day, how do you not have to beplaying with me?
I'm not coming to nobody office.
(31:37):
I'm telling y'all.
I'm not about to be stressingmyself.
For all that, I don't, I'm notdoing that.
Honestly, I agree with youbecause even if I move closer to
the city.
I'm not stressing myself forthat.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
If I had to go into the office and do all this
stress, I think I can see whypeople quit their job Like
literally they just be like youknow what.
It's okay, I don't even care ifI don't have a job for a minute
.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Yeah, I'll figure it out.
I'll figure it out, I'll runthrough my savings.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
I'll run through it.
I watched this girl back in theday and she was like whatever
job I get for two years, I justlive super frugally.
I live super frugally.
She was like.
And then after like two years,whether I like the company or
not, if I like the company, Ikeep working, but if I don't, I
(32:27):
immediately quit and I just liveoff of my savings until I find
a job that I actually like.
She called it fun employed.
She's like yeah, I get totravel, I get to do everything I
want and I don't have to worryabout shit.
Ever since then I was like Ineed to be that discipline, but
obviously with our lifestyle itnever should go happen.
So I just have to figure out howto make more money, which I
(32:48):
don't think is a challenge.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
I think we will save more money this year, though,
because I'm not going to no moremusic festivals.
I will never Last year we wentto two.
Yeah, two music festivals seemslike a reasonable amount, but I
mean there was a year where wewent to like five, five or six,
five and one year.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
I mean like four, four or five and that's a lot of
money to be dropping.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
That's a lot of money to be dropping, like, like,
honestly, after one music fest.
I don't know if we talked aboutthat experience or not.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
She was a troche of a waste of money.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
A waste of money and I would tell them like to their
faces, waste of like if theyever asked for a survey or just
asked for anybody's honestopinion still never did the Afro
tux over.
Yeah, and it's probably closedright now.
They really got it.
They probably got enough ofeverybody's words, though,
because you know what they aboutblack people.
If we don't have a pleasantexperience, we're gonna let you
(33:38):
know.
You're gonna know.
Yeah, you're gonna know.
You are going to know.
But yeah, I just feel likedreamville was cool, but I just
feel like music festivalsfestivals in general, terrible
are just have just gotten worse,because I feel like it's what
everybody wants to do and it'snot.
(34:00):
It's not as good.
Like we went to one music fest.
Maybe like the second year theyhad it, or like the third year,
like in its beginning stages,the first one we want to.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
We went when they had the 10th anniversary.
That was our first one.
Oh well but either way itwasn't really well known.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
No, no, no, no.
Like we was walking comfortable, we was like being it, we could
breathe, like none of thestages were too packed.
Correct, our Lennox wasperforming at three o'clock,
several Walker was at four.
The first year we went, excuseme.
The last, the last year that wewent before this last one, our
(34:40):
Lennox was one of the headliners, so that just shows you how far
it's come.
They've moved locations.
It's actually like in a wholepark, like a whole ground,
giving Coachella type vibes, andit just wasn't good.
It just wasn't.
It didn't give the same feeling.
And I feel like for this year,when I say money is not the
(35:03):
motivation for me, it's becauseI see what money, when money is
a motivation, I see what it doesto your brand, to your craft,
to your, to you.
Yeah, and I just want to alwayslead on the side of passion and
experience and leave money as asecondary thing, because it's
still important, but not thefirst thing.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
Yeah yeah, you end up going crazy, chasing money.
Yeah yeah, that's, that's,that's 100.
But yeah, I grew with youwholeheartedly.
Yeah that's interesting.
Yeah, I mean, it's not oftenthat people talk about the L's,
but you know.
Speaker 2 (35:41):
Yeah, I mean I'm sure there's other stuff that
happened, like I know but thanksfor sharing, no problem.
Would you, would you like toshare anything that you feel
like was, was, is, is shareworthy that I asked the question
.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
I mean I asked you.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
Do you have an L that you would like to share?
Speaker 1 (36:01):
Uh, I don't know if I have an L.
That's like.
Well, I guess I don't know if Ican consider an L, because I
feel like it's moreself-inflicted.
You feel me.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
What happened?
I just you know so.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
I'll say like this the streets got too hot for your
boy.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
You lost your mind a little bit.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
Lost my mind a little bit.
I mean you got it back, or youget it back, we get it back.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
You get it back.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
So that's but the but .
The streets got too hot foryour boy, and so I, respectfully
I stepped out the streets andnow you on the sidewalk, on the
bench on the park bench, on thepark bench feeding the birds
yeah, yeah, so yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
That was if I really had to be like holistic that
really is is without givingdetail to to his life, because
you know y'all don't, we don'tknow y'all like that for real.
We love you as supporters ofthe show, but as people y'all
could be.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
You don't have to pay for the patron if you really
want the full story and maybethis year we'll do that.
We'll start, or maybe I'llwrite it in a memoir one day a
book, a TV show on your life?
Probably better as a TV show.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
You need a TV.
I think Deji needs a TV show onhis life, but I feel like they
are you just saying that or doyou actually?
Speaker 1 (37:09):
are you dead as serious?
Speaker 2 (37:11):
I feel like sure, why not?
Speaker 1 (37:15):
What would make it seem that I need to have a TV
show on my life because of thecircumstances that I be going
through?
Speaker 2 (37:20):
or yeah, it would be, it be a dramedy.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
It definitely would be a dramedy.
Yeah, it has to be.
I feel like I'd have to ourcomedy drama whatever it would
have to have some elementssecure.
I'm a drum, I'm a dramaticperson.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
I realized that the other day we both are our mother
sits home and watches Nigerianmovies and Nigerian news every
day.
So, we're a product of that,which is great because I guess.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
I guess I mean, I do have some moments, like when I,
when I, when I we went for theinterview for Motorola.
Yeah that's episode.
That's a pilot.
I told you that's a pilot rightthere.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
Yeah, no, that would get you picked up for a season
for show.
I could you pick up for atleast at least 10 episodes for
show.
But, I just feel like therearen't a lot of shows or a lot
of instances where you see blackmen as like multi dimensional.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Yeah, currently not that.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
I'm like watching TV or studying TV shows, but I feel
like that's a place that hasnot been tapped into a lot and
not sitcom, like literally, likeinsecure, but the main
character is a guy Is black butthen like maybe the supporting
characters or like the mainwoman in, like the main person.
(38:39):
That's not.
The main character is a woman,but I just feel like they have
shows like that, they've hadshows like that and they've not
done successful or they've notgone past like a first season or
something so like what grandcrew.
There was another show on BETthat only had like one or two
seasons.
That was like based on 30, somethings.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
I did not know.
Those are the only two I canthink of.
Yeah, I did not know that.
But yeah, that's interesting tohear you say that.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
Yeah, I mean, I just like black content.
Like I, I'm a firm believer andnot even watching movies or TV
shows that don't have blackcharacters on.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
I agree, I agree with you.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
I definitely was annoying because, like my work,
my job is television.
I work yeah, I work for TV, butI also work for, like in my
team we do like a movie club andwe pick a movie and we watch it
and review it and I'm like Irecommended them.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
One of your movies that you know.
Do that movie.
Yeah, it was a good movie.
Speaker 2 (39:35):
Yeah it was a foreign film.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Yes, yeah, because you know you got to double.
But yeah, I mean that's theonly L I can really think of.
Speaker 2 (39:44):
You know, I just I played in the street enough to
wear like the L had its baby.
Else the big L had lower chase.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
Right, right, right, but you know that was so so long
ago.
I guess that means we shouldtransition into this year.
But I mean, I'm not really oneof those people that like to
talk about the year.
I'm just going to say it verysimply Y'all just going to see
what y'all see.
(40:11):
I don't really, I don't reallywant to talk about it, I don't
really want to get y'all it'snot even bugging Y'all hopes up.
If you're going to be tuned in,be tuned in and watch the
manifestation of whatever iscoming.
And that's it.
Truth be told, I don't want tobe like, well, we got a lot of
things in the place.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
We really don't have nothing planned for real, but
just know that, like we are,we're going to put some things
in motion Like why not?
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
What do we got?
Speaker 1 (40:37):
to lose Nothing.
But, not really.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
But I say we could get it back.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
The only reason why I say that is because I know for
a fact we could probably dosomething in like a couple of
weeks, because you know I haveand yeah, you know, life is life
is life.
But let's get to the nextsegment of the show.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
Oh, are we done with 2024?
Speaker 1 (41:02):
What 2023?
What else is there to talkabout?
Speaker 2 (41:04):
Nothing really.
I feel like you know we, ohyeah, we're not keeping it
regular.
We're not keeping it regularand talking about goals and and
we're to look forward, to justkeep eye out.
Yeah, okay, what's that that'sfine.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
Yeah, keep the energy , you know.
Yeah, I just when you, when yousee me and you see me.
What's the name of this?
Speaker 2 (41:27):
No go ahead.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
What's the song Y'all know?
I don't know lyrics.
Can somebody help me?
Speaker 2 (41:32):
Period.
When you see me and you see me,and you see me, and you see me,
and you see me, and you see me.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
The song, the theme, the beat is going on in my head,
so I know the song.
I just don't know the lyrics tothe song Ski no.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Um, it was not that.
No, it wasn't.
If you see me and you trying tosee what's up ski.
Speaker 1 (41:57):
It was not that song.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Okay, what the hell are you talking about I?
Speaker 1 (42:00):
don't know.
That's why I tell you you know,I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
the next segment of the show is.
It's been so long I don't evenremember what the next segment
is.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
That's the point.
What's the order?
Three episodes in 2023.
Y'all yeah.
At least we kept the number.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
Well, at least we was doing stuff.
If y'all follow us on socialmedia.
We was giving you content.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Yeah, that's, very true.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
But what's the next segment?
Is it get on intellectual or isit things I send DG on Twitter?
Speaker 1 (42:27):
You do things.
I send DG on Twitter last.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
Okay, so get an intellectual question for you
and I.
I like to get a lot of myghetto intellectual questions
from things I see on Twitterwhich is unrelated to the things
I send DG on Twitter, becausenot everything I see do I send.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
But she hasn't been sending a lot of shit to me?
Yeah, just because.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
I just need to keep it there so that way, when it's
time for us to record all theseepisodes, we have stuff to look
at.
And I can ask DG, why do youthink I sent you this?
But today, the ghettointellectual is this, and it's a
video I saw of a girl Just thisvideo I just was watching right
here.
This girl was saying that shewould never let a man get her
(43:08):
off her square in front ofanother girl.
So basically, what happened isa girl on TikTok was talking
about her and her ex, like likeI mean, her and her boyfriend
saw his ex in the apartmentcomplex.
Apparently they both live inthe apartment complex, not
together, but she was coming infrom her getting her food and
the boyfriend and the girl and anew girlfriend was sitting on
(43:31):
the couch.
He was calling for her.
The girl the ex was acting likeshe didn't know, like she just
like paid him no mind, and thegirl, who was like oh yeah, I
pay him no mind she was like webreak up every all the time.
We've been off and on for ayear and a half or a year, Like
we broke up 48 hours ago.
(43:52):
Now.
The question that is for theghetto intellectuals is this Is
there two birds in thissituation or just one?
Are there two birds in thissituation or one?
And which bird is the biggestbird?
(44:13):
If you think it's two and ifit's only one, which one is the
bird?
Speaker 1 (44:21):
So the person that is the bird?
I believe that there's only one.
It's the girl that's talkingabout it.
Speaker 2 (44:27):
Trick question the bird is the nigga.
Speaker 1 (44:29):
Why?
Oh, okay, sorry, I was gonnasay why no, if it was me and I
feel like I feel like this islike a very college thing.
I don't even think grown peopledo this all the time.
I was just actually having aconversation with one of my
homegirls and I said I thinkit's been harder to date for me
(44:53):
because I don't come with thatmuch drama and I don't think a
lot of black women under I'm notgonna say anything about I'm
not gonna say anything.
I was just gonna say I don'tthink a lot of black women know
how to deal with men who don'tdeal with conflict.
So meaning that if you arecoming from a place of peace and
(45:17):
positivity and a healthystandpoint in a relationship, I
don't think most black womendon't know how to deal without
there being conflict, meaningthey're used to toxicity and
trash ass motherfuckers.
Not saying that I'm great, isthat why?
Speaker 2 (45:32):
you feel like you failed in the relationships that
you had Because the women don'tknow how to deal with it.
Speaker 1 (45:38):
No, no actually I wasn't.
Oh, you making a leap, I'm justtrying to figure out what
you're saying so what I was justtrying to say is I don't think
most women know how to be with agood man, because most of the
time they.
Because we were getting intothe discussion of and I was
telling her this, I said I hatewhen girls say niggas ain't shit
, but then you still continue tofuck with niggas.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
I mean because that's what they like.
I'm supposed to give up.
Speaker 1 (46:04):
No, no, no, I know.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
FreshFriars.
Not good for me, but I'ma keepeating FreshFriars.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
You don't keep saying so the thing that what I was
trying to tell her is that, likeyou're already biased and jaded
when you come into Ah, okay,okay.
Speaker 2 (46:17):
so you have to lead with positivity if you want
positivity is what you're tryingto say.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
No, I was trying to say that you can't say that men
aren't shit, because that's Iwas like I could easily say that
women ain't shit.
But what does that do for me?
Does that mean I'm gonna findthe person for me?
How does that mean?
How do I walk in therelationship?
That's what I was trying totell her, because you can't say
this person's, this whole entire.
Speaker 2 (46:42):
Maybe she wants you to prove her wrong, but I'm also
not for proving yourself in ourrelationship.
Like don't try to test me, youknow, or don't try to you know.
Like, of course, like make mebelieve in love, but don't test
me for show.
Speaker 1 (46:56):
Well, I don't even think you should make your
partner believe in love, so I'mon this whole thing.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
You already need to believe in it before.
Speaker 1 (47:02):
yeah, correct just because, at the end of the day,
I'm tired of this whole ideologythat people need to earn
people's love.
We all know how to love.
Love is not something that youtake and give.
That's why I think the problemis in most relationships.
But to circle back and get tothe main point, the reason why I
(47:23):
said that is because, well, inthis situation it seemed like
Buddy has moved on.
Speaker 2 (47:30):
He hasn't.
He's playing both of them.
I said he the bird becauseyou're playing two girls.
Speaker 1 (47:35):
Why are you sitting with one girl?
Speaker 2 (47:37):
She the bird she is the bird.
Which one?
Speaker 1 (47:39):
The one that's the curve the one that spoke on it,
if you know.
Speaker 2 (47:42):
They both spoke on it , though the one made the first,
I don't know what the first.
Speaker 1 (47:45):
So then they both.
Actually I didn't know that, sothat's two birds, two birds,
that's two birds.
Speaker 2 (47:51):
If it's two birds, which is the biggest bird?
Speaker 1 (47:52):
So then I don't feel bad anymore.
I felt bad for the girl becauseI was like I think that's not
college.
That's every day.
Speaker 2 (48:01):
It do sound like some college shit, though, cause why
are you living?
Why are you in the samebuilding as your niggas?
Speaker 1 (48:05):
Because it's cheap.
Speaker 2 (48:08):
Or just because they maybe they met, like because
they live, they both lived there.
Speaker 1 (48:11):
It's cheap, affordable, rent it's hard.
Speaker 2 (48:13):
I feel like it is a college thing though, but anyway
I feel like this person.
I feel like it's two birds.
Both y'all bitches is birds,and I'm calling y'all bitches
because I'm a woman as well.
Both y'all bitches is birds.
Why would you be with a nigga?
And he called as soon as hewould have said the girl name,
and I knew that was it Wait?
Speaker 1 (48:28):
he called the ex in front of the other girl.
Speaker 2 (48:30):
Like she was getting a drink out the convenience
store, cause their apartment hasa convenience store which makes
me believe that it's collegecause.
Speaker 1 (48:36):
Nah, some of the newer luxury joints have that.
Speaker 2 (48:38):
Yeah, but either way, I was just like, oh, she was,
yeah, and he was and she waspaying him no mind.
But she was like, yeah, likethat's my ex, we break up every
other.
I'm not doing too much back andforth to back and forth, get
together, break up with, butespecially if he got a new bitch
, so he having sex with you, hehaving sex with her Too much,
two birds killing both with thesame stone.
Yeah, yeah yeah, so that's thewhole point I was trying to get
(49:00):
at.
To get an intellectual answeris two birds killing both with
one stone.
Speaker 1 (49:03):
Got you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So then let me ask you thisCause.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
we gotta eliminate all the birds.
Speaker 1 (49:07):
So let me ask you this If you cut it with somebody
.
I'm a chicken.
Well, actually, you believe inspinning the block, right?
Speaker 2 (49:15):
I do, why not?
I believe in spinning the block, but I believe it has to make
sense, like if you can just makea U turn or you could just make
a three point turn, why do youneed to spin the whole block?
You know what I mean.
But like it has to make senseand I feel like we can talk
about that because that's notthe ghetto intellectual question
we can make spinning the block.
I can explain to you turn in awide turn to you.
Speaker 1 (49:35):
Then I be in the exit .
I don't go back.
I don't go back.
Speaker 2 (49:44):
I hit One way.
It's the one way.
Speaker 1 (49:46):
I hit an exit.
Speaker 2 (49:47):
It's the one way on your block.
Speaker 1 (49:48):
Yeah, if we cut.
Speaker 2 (49:49):
We live on a circle, so it go in a circle.
So you can spin the block.
Speaker 1 (49:52):
I learned my lesson If we cut, we cut Sure.
Whatever you say, Shorty, Iwould buy my own, but Shumbo,
you didn't even hear me say it.
I needed to say it one time.
Let's do things.
You sent me on Twitter.
Speaker 2 (50:07):
This is how I sent you on Twitter.
Oh, my goodness, it's been sothat you's taking the social
media hiatus, so I have justbeen sending you so many things
on.
Twitter and I just wanted tosay what is this one thing?
Speaker 1 (50:18):
Yes, I have been on a hiatus, I've been in my Me
having meetings with myself todiscuss my rebrand.
Oh yeah, I saw this.
I think this is very obvious Ifanybody has been following me
on social media.
I'm in the midst of a rebrand.
I have deleted all my pictures.
Another one you know, life'sthe evolution I have.
(50:39):
I have deleted all my pictures.
I'm literally living by thephilosophy.
If you knew me in the last twoto three years, I don't know who
you knew, because that is nolonger me.
On top of that, I'm rebrandingmost of my side hustles, so you
should watch out for that,especially my shoe business.
Speaker 2 (51:00):
But yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
I be going through rebrands, cause for me, every
time I go through a rebrand,that means I'm reaching another
iteration, another evolution ofmyself.
So if that's the case, y'alldon't know me and y'all never
did, and we never dated and wenever had relations.
I'm a virgin.
I'm celibate.
Speaker 2 (51:23):
Well, I mean, it is the second, so your wholeness
has been deleted.
Zero bodies is what everybodyis starting at, and happy new
year to you.
