Now, remember, I don't have theskills.
(03:56):
I learn these things and someof A lot of the apps will hold
your hand and help you throughthese processes, but I learn
these things.

Because I'm like if I'mwatching NCIS I know they can
scrape and find whatever theyneed to find.
(09:22):
I can do the same thing.
There's got to be sometechnology.
But then I realized I'm just anigga in downtown Phoenix.
I don't have the same type ofstaff money technology that the
cops, the federal agents have.
So I'm fucked.
So I'm trying to dig, I don'tfind any success and I'm screwed
.
And JT was pumped.
(09:43):
He was pumped, he was excitedabout it.
He was pumped, he's pumpedabout the video, the video
interview, because it was hisfirst one.
He's pumped, excited, can'twait for me to drop it.

I didn't have the the cool ex,I was mad at the time.
I don't have the cool news.
I didn't have the cool in histo call him and tell him that I
(10:08):

He was hurt, I was hurt, I wasmad.
I didn't do nothing for therest of the night.
For real, actually, I take thatback.
I did go through a power whileof palting, I wanted to break my
(10:54):
laptop, tear my TV off the wall.
It's a lot of work.
It's a lot of work when youdon't have, like, the knowledge,
the quick knowledge bang, bang,bang, bang, bang.
I'm getting better, I've gottenbetter.
I do videos in the club and Iput them together and stuff like

I was in my feelings.
But you want to know what tookme out of my feelings?

So I got my really old ass upand spend some hours playing
some call of duty, bitching toCraig visions about how I
massacred, massacred, massacredmy video and how mad I was.
(12:02):
So I asked JT to come backthrough.

It's so many things you can doin two hours.
(14:17):

I'm looking forward to it and Iknow you will enjoy it.
(16:05):
Now, moving on from all thatstuff that went on, it was like
just like a Thailand trafficSpider web worth a shit.
I just went through now thatthat's talked about and done.
Um, I don't usually.
You know, I used to play a lotof music In these episodes,
right, I used to drop a lot ofmusic because I'm a music head,
I love music, I love to, I loveto sing, you know I'm saying.
(16:28):
You know I'm saying I love the.
You know I'm saying I love the.
You know I love the same andI'm a big music guy.
(16:49):
Right, I just put music clips.
You know, all the time dropsand stuff like that.
And then Spotify was telling meno, no more, no more, you
cannot do that, no more.
And YouTube was telling me whatI was putting my click no, no,
no, no more.
So I don't put music in hereand you just have to hear me a
(17:11):
lot.
I do put some, some backgroundmusic as clear.
You know I'm saying so you can.
You know it ain't just merumbling tumble.
You get a little a little extrasomething behind my talking.
You get a little a little funbehind it, you know.
So music.
And I want to get on the factthat you know Drake had dropped
(17:32):
Think it's for all my dogs,right, he had dropped that.
I had no problem with it.
You know Like I can getdetailed when it comes to music.
I don't have no problem with it.
It's, it's Drake.
You know a lot of the.
The super die-hard fans Couldbe in a tussle Russell muscle
about it, but I didn't reallytrip.
Is what Drake does?
(17:54):
Drake is one of three, maybefour people that's still
providing an actual album,actually trying, actually caring
to provide you with somequality music.
It's not chasing a hit, notchasing a tiktok song, just
creating music.
It's gotta be refreshing toyour ears, even if you're having
(18:16):
a hard time Accepting that.
You don't get the old Drake.
I never got the old Kanye.
I had to deal with the newKanye.
I never got the old Kanye.
I accepted the new Kanye forhow he was.
He was still providing me withHardcore work.
That's why I appreciated them,Because he was still providing
(18:37):
me With effort, energy,creativity.
Even if there's songs you don'tlike, you gotta appreciate the
work, the effort, the creativity.
Right, because a lot of catschase the tiktok, a lot of
artists chase the tiktok.
They chase the Graham song andthat's what they ride they had
on.
But complete work is hard tofind.
(18:59):
Like I used to listen toanything that Dr Dre had his
hands on, because he had a lotof work Dr Dre had his hands on
because he mastered.
He mastered beautifully.
It always sounded amazing.
There's a lot of Nettoons andPharrell beats that I'd be like
well, I don't know what the hellthey were doing, but I
(19:19):
appreciate the creativity andtrying, because that those are
my guys, that's my favoriteproducers, that's my favorite
producer.
Those guys put work increativity, work, energy, trying
to give you something different, trying to Trying to get you to
see, see sounds, see colorsyour ears can have.
(19:42):
They could jump for joy, theycould go oh, what is this?
This is different.
Maybe there are records that hityou over time.
There are a lot of songs thatJay Z had dropped back in the
day I was like, hmm, thisdisgusting, I don't like this,
this ain't what I'm about, Idon't fuck with this.
And I look up 20 years laterI'm like you know what, jay,
this is a fucking good record.
Same thing with DMX.
(20:06):
I'm from Kansas City, soanything from New York was funky
to me, right.
No, over time I was like, damnthis nigga's really good.
Damn this nigga's really good.
Shit.
I'm from Kansas City.
Big tech, nine fan.
Big tech, nine fan.
There's a lot of records whereI'm like you know, tech of Nina
(20:26):
McFlo, I don't really like this.
And then, years later, I'm likeDamn tech.
It took me that long to getEminem's, probably one of the
more, one of the one of theartists that blows my mind years
later, cuz I'm like, oh, I getthat punchline now, I got it, I
got it, and I say it to myself.
And then I realized it'sembarrassing if I had set it
(20:47):
around people who were reallyinto lyrics, because they had
already got it and I hadn't gotit and I had dead music and then
I had didn't really, but butthat's what happened, I have a
really I oh, I Hear that, I hearthat and I failed you Eminem as
a fan.
I did not hear that.
But Drake's last album wasacceptable to me.
(21:09):
It's what Drake does.
You know you go to the store.
You want to get some candy.
They're mad.
I want to get some candy, yourpeanut Eminem guy.
Go get you some peanut Eminem.
You know they're gonna tastelike peanut Eminem's.
They're always there, theynever let you down.
They don't taste.
You know I'm saying like thesame type of candy you would get
(21:30):
from a dollar general.
There's probably peanutEminem's, but it tastes like I
got a little bit of rubber in it, little bit of rubbing alcohol
in it.
Nah, you go to, you go to thequick trip, or you go to the
fries.
You go to the Walmart target.
You get some peanut Eminem's.
Yes, what you gonna get.
You get peanut Eminem's.
It can take like peanutEminem's.
Now, granted, some of them cancan look like sloth from the
(21:52):
Goonies.
You know I'm saying, hey, youknow they can look a little bit.
They've deformed, but it tasteslike peanut Eminem's.
That's what Drake is to be.
You can never be upset.
He's gonna give you exactlywhat he's gonna give you, but he
has new music.
Dropping Sip of the coffee.
(22:14):
He has new music droppingtonight.
I Called scary hours three and Ithink the last time I'm seeing,
the last time I think he didthat.
It was like two or threerecords on there.
All right, three records, scaryhour threes, I you know, and
there's no.
There's no known if there's afeature on there.
(22:36):
But I always get excitedBecause the internet gets
excited and in music there's notmuch to get excited about
anymore.
I Mean, I did have a lot of joywatching and still watching
Taylor Swift be at chiefs gamesand stuff like it, you know.
But as far as music I reallywant to listen to and I'm a
(22:57):
Swiftie, I consider myself aswiftie.
I don't know every record, butwhen she pops out I'm like, oh,
that's Taylor Swift, my honestTaylor Swift, and I'm on that
record.
But when there's music fromsomebody I just listened to on a
reggae, on the regs on thereggae, I get a little bit
excited.
The internet pumps me up.
(23:18):
So he's dropping scary hoursthree tonight.
So for the people that hear this, I'm pretty sure you're going
to be a Drake fan.
You know, tonight I think it'smidnight Scary hour three will
drop and we'll see what the youknow the few records to be
supposed to be probably abouttwo or three new records on
there.
It's always nice to get somenew Drake records and see what
(23:40):
it's about.
I'm hoping it's some dope shit.
I expect it to be some dopeshit, some fun shit or some
peanut M&M's Most likely thepeanut M&M's and in the other
part of that that's really dopeis that him and Jay Cole Another
person that's a part of thethree to four that make actual
(24:00):
albums, but Jay Cole's you knowthe light skin leprechaun with a
fro right, get that into therainbow.
There he is holding the pot ofgold and then he's gone.
It's like, oh shit, there's,there's the leprechaun, jay Cole
with the, with the, with thehair.
He's got the pot of you knowpot of gold in his hand and then
(24:24):
you get it and he's gone.
And then you reappear becauseyou hear about the rainbow being
in another direction thedirection years later.
I think that's what it is Right.
He's a.
You know, I disappear here.
Pop up, drop some music, go ona tour.
Holler.
I used to.
(24:46):
I used to say the artist likeit because you don't get a lot
right.
They drop music, they do theirtour and they disappear, so you
don't feel like you get a lot,especially nowadays when
everybody's kind of more indepth.
They show you inside of theirhouse, they show you their
(25:07):
process.
You see what type of food theyeating before they record or
before they go on a stage.
You see what type of lubethey're using before they have
sex.
You see everything now.
But people like Eminem and thenJay Cole and you know Jay Z to,
(25:28):
you know, because he's withBeyonce you see a lot about, you
see, you know what?
Not really, because you knoweverybody thinks Beyonce alien,
so they probably don't show asmuch because they live in a
spaceship and then when they,when she gets done performing,
they're like, oh shit, beyoncegoing on her private plane.
But she really get on thespaceship and the spaceship fool
, fool with it like alien foodand they get on it alien food
(25:49):
and they take off becauseeverybody thinks Beyonce a
reptilian alien and Jay Zprobably is actually human and
they just forced him to be thereand he looked cool but he
really just scared in behind thescenes.
He don't know what to dobecause if I leave they won't
kill me.
They don't kill everybody in myfamily because she's an alien,
but that's just what everybodysay on YouTube.
I ain't saying it's true or not, that's what everybody's saying
on YouTube.
Anyway, you don't really get alot from Jay Cole.
(26:14):
You know you get the music.
People love it.
It's about a week, week and ahalf Now.
About a week he does numbersand then poof, he's gone.
That's not a problem with that,because I'm a private person.
I like to be private.
I want to share my relationshipwith people.
(26:35):
You know what I'm saying.
I don't like to share my doglike that.
That's my guy, winston Roarroar.
It's my guy, right.
So I understand being private,but sometimes, from a fan
standpoint, you just would liketo see a little bit more,
especially in the era of seeingeverything.
(26:55):
But he's one of the ones whogive you effort, creativity,
lyrics.
You know he put the time in togive you some real work.
You got to appreciate it right.
But him and Drake are going ontour Now.
I don't do concerts.
I'm not a concert person.
Um, I don't usually do comedystandups.
(27:20):
I went to see Chappelle andChris Rock because you know what
I'm saying.
If you got comedy right, youthink comedy and then you think
God's and you say, ok, there'slike four or five of them.
For me, those are two of thefour or five.
You know what I'm saying.
(27:41):
So I went to go see that.
But concerts, I'm not a big.
I went to see Jay-Z when I wasyounger, probably like 14.
It's a hard night life tour forthe folks that are younger.
If you go, look at the date,shame on you, because why are
you trying to insult me?
You know what I'm saying.
I can hear your hate when youtype in the hard night life to
it and you see it was like 96.
(28:02):
That's disrespectful.
Don't do that.
It's like 98.
Actually it's like 98.
Um, but I went there and Iactually was so.
So I was like I was like 15.
It's 15 at the time.
So I went there and I 16.
So I went there because itmight have been 99.
(28:23):
Yeah, it's like 99.
So I went there and, dude, Igot to go backstage and I'm
getting on.
Of course this is what I do.
That's why you listen to me.
It's my shit.
So you hear, I went backstage,16 years old, right, I'm in the
music now.
You know, my boy KB is makingbeats on free loops.
Free loops is becoming thething.
(28:44):
He's making them from hiscomputer, you know, and I'm
getting into the music.
So I'm like, and he didn't wantto go backstage, we just allowed
to go backstage.
I don't know how we got tobackstage, but we was allowed to
go, right, I don't remember howit happened and I didn't really
care about going, but I endedup going to the hard night life,
to a concert tour.
So then we get to go backstage.
He didn't want to go backstage.
I don't know why he didn't wantto go backstage, but I had the
(29:06):
heart because I'm a, I'm amotherfucking G.
You know I'm saying you put mein front of a line, I'm gonna
stare that line down because I'ma motherfucking G.
You know I'm saying I ain'trunning from nobody, nothing,
unless it's a beat.
Wasp, spider, water, tornadoes,hurricanes, too many ants, too
(29:35):
many gnats, too many flies.
I leave all that shit.
But a lion, I'll stare thatmotherfucker down inside of a
armored tank.
You thought it was.
You thought now ain't fuckingwith no lion, I'm getting the
fuck out of there.
Anyway, but I go backstage,right, and when I get backstage,
(29:58):
let me go back to that youthought I was.
Ah, you, did dogs go put myselfin an armored tank, did you?
And I go backstage and I see along line of hot ladies, hot
women, just a long.
I mean this line was long.
I have a shitty memory but Iremember this because it was a
(30:21):
lot of it was a lot of boobiesand a lot of booty and it was a
long line.
I was like, damn this,backstage, behind, behind the
concerts, and backstage, 16years old.
I looked like a convict, evenwhen I was 16.
So they was like, damn, thisnigga need to be doing security.
I was like, nah, fam, I'm only16 and back up.
You know what I'm saying.
And I see this long line ofwomen and I'm like, and they was
(30:45):
just in front of one door.
It was one door.
I'm not lying to you when I saythis.
It was one door, gold knob, andit had to easily be about 80 to
100 women lying down the wall.
And I'm like, are they?
Are they wanting to go intothis room To maybe perform a
(31:10):
little JLo hustle dance?
You know what I'm saying.
I don't know, I'm 16.
I can imagine anything.
I was blown away.
The line was long.
It was all women, all women.
I seem like Beanie Segalwalking around.
You know what I'm saying.
And they couldn't even go in.
(31:32):
They didn't even go in the room.
I don't have to be Jay-Z, right?
I think I seen DMX walkingaround.
You know what I'm saying.
Had to be Jay-Z in that room.
It was such a long line, I wasblown away.
And then and then, as I'mwalking around, I was getting a
little nervous because I was bymyself.
I was getting a little nervousas to whether they tried to jump
.
You know what I'm saying.
I wasn't really thinking likethat because it was nothing but
(31:53):
women all back there and a fewsecurity dudes, right, actually
a lot of security.
But I was like then you wouldsee the gold knob turn and then
they would come.
And there was one woman wouldcome out and another one would
go in.
I'm like it's no way thatthere's a lot of draining going
on.
You can't service this many Inthat room.
(32:14):
It could be big, but it can'tbe big like that.
So it's like is it like eightmotherfuckers in a closet size
room trying to service, tryingto get service from all these
women?
At my mind was blonde, I was 16.
Don't judge me.
I didn't know what was going on, so I eventually left.
So I'm not a big concert guy.
That's really what the storywas all about.
Not because you know that was abad concert, it was dope.
(32:36):
I was like Jay-Z DMX, the lockswas on there.
That was a legendary tour.
But J Cole and Drake going ontour, I pop out for that, I pop
out for that.
I forgot where they, where theysay they were going.
I guess I'm going to see.
(32:58):
And the tour, presented by Cash,app and Visa, will feature
Drake and J Cole performingacross multiple dates.
The tour dates it kicks offwith back to back shows in
Denver at the ball arena onJanuary 18th and 19th 2024, and
it includes stops in cities likeOklahoma City, new Orleans,
(33:22):
nashville and more, concludingon March 27th in Birmingham at
the BJCC legacy arena.
Hmm, not going to come byPhoenix.
Drake came by here on the it'sall a blur.
I think that's what it was.
It's all a blur tour orwhatever it was.
Came by here, did two shows Notgoing to come by with with J
(33:45):
Cole.
And the funny thing was I wasnext to J Cole.
Yeah, like I, like I'm in amechanic.
I'm a mechanic in the shop withmy cigarette.
My nigga, nigga 10 years ago.
I next J Cole in the club.
Yeah, nigga, look at scaredshit in the club.
(34:06):
You know, nigga, he all bigtime you want to do shit, ride
his bike with a fro and have it,be happy and be buried and have
a million dollars, a lot ofbuddy and shit.
You know they go acting allscary shit.
What he's the, what he's theclub, they just did it.
It motherfucking it do nothing.
They even just standing like asquare, you know, say the guys
at their party and bitches allaround these shit.
(34:27):
You know that's what I soundlike, but I was actually next to
him and he was chill.
That's how I am in the club.
But he was super chill, wasn'treally, weren't really into
doing too much, just chilling.
Um, everybody else around himwas having a ball.
I mean you couldn't, couldn'timagine what was going on around
him, but he was chilling,didn't stay too long, got out of
(34:49):
there.
You know it was cool because bythat time he had, uh, you know,
one of my records that Ienjoyed nobody's perfect, with
Missy LA.
And then you know, of course,every day of stars born off the
blue pen three album with JZ,how he was introduced to us, to
the world.
I mean it gets no better thanthat outside of in the club and
(35:09):
50 cent.
But it gets no better than that, because he just put you on and
you was able to lyrically say,do your shit.
And everybody was like damn,hmm, that motherfucker special.
And he continued on and heactually became special and Jay
Z never seemed like he helpedthat nigga at all.
I did that one moment.
We don't know the background,we don't know the backstory, but
(35:30):
it seemed like that one recordand I think Jay Z was on his
album one time.
It was like a dubstep type beatand after that he had.
You didn't even I don't thinkeven niggas even took pictures
shaking hands together that manytimes.
It was just that was it.
But J Cole is a guy who coulddrop an album with no features
and still do the numbers andthen go on tour.
(35:52):
It's weird but it's dope.
So they got the Drake and theygot the J Cole tour and that's
uh, I'm gonna be spending somemoney, I'm gonna go.
I would go if they were here.
There's nothing.
There's nothing saying I'mgoing to go to O K C, nah, nah,
when I'm looking for vacationsor I'm looking to go do
(36:13):
something cool, I'm not puttinga pin on O K C being like yeah,
that's where I want to go.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, you know I'm not.
You know, you know Alabama, youknow what I'm saying.
Birmingham, you know, those areall probably really dope places
(36:33):
.
I'm just saying, and I thinkthe people living there would
say I'm not really trying to puta pin here If I was living
somewhere else and I was likeyou know what, I want to go see
J Cole.
You know what I'm saying.
Most time you will not.
I'm gonna go to LA, I'm gonnago to Vegas, go to New York, and
then you, that's where you wantto go see them at.
Okay, see Nah, brrr, yeah.
(36:57):
And there ain't nothing wrongwith the cities.
I'm just saying spending myhard earned money to take a
flight to those places ain't onmy list of things to do in my
life.
You know what I'm saying.
Anyway, I ain't clearing mythroat today.
Coffee, you fucking with me,huh.
(37:18):
But moving on, I wanted to talkabout something near and dear to
my heart.
When I was a wee lad, when Iwas a wee lad, there was a place
, a place you would go, and theplace was called Chuck E Cheese.
Oh, I'm so sorry, showbiz Pizza.
Showbiz Pizza was a place that,as a young black kid, you felt
(37:46):
like you would never be able toget there, because if you were
poor and you were in the ghetto,it was just seemed like a place
you couldn't get to.
It was never, never land.
You know what I'm saying.
You can't get there.
Disneyland, as a black ghettokid.
They were winning the SuperBowl and I'm going to Disneyland
(38:06):
, or you would see Disneylandcommercials and you would look
at your mama and she'd be likeno nigga.
Before you even know you seethem cockroaches crawling on the
floor.
No, you see what.
You see what is headed.
You know what I'm saying.
You see what is headed.
We, I got, we got everything byluck as a kid.
(38:29):
You know what I'm saying.
Some, some crackhead, stole newtwo Nintendo's and gave it to
somebody that knew, somebodythat we know, and they was like
well, we don't even need this,you want.
Everything was by luck becausewe was poor.
Everything was by luck.
Anything with some luxury is byluck.
Cable is probably more likethat.
It was through my grandpa.
We was able to have cable inthe house.
(38:51):
He was able to provide that bypure luck because he knew
somebody that worked for thecable place.
It wasn't like he was willingto pay for it, he had to plug or
grandpa was gangster,everything was by luck.
So going to show biz pizza wassomething that you just felt
(39:11):
like you could never like.
I'm never going to be able togo to your dry past and it'd be
full and busy.
And you see all the kids comingin, white kids with pizza boxes
, and they just got a smile ontheir face.
You can't even touch, you can'teven get to, you can't even
reach it unless you have somereally, really, really full
glass of sugary Kool-Aid.
That's the only time you getthat type of joy when your shit
(39:31):
is full of sugar and it's theKool-Aid's probably cherry and
you was hitting it and you waslike, oh, that's a smile on your
face.
When you got lucky, you couldget the Hershey's chocolate
syrup and you could put it inwith the milk you had just
enough.
You get to the bottom of youhear that there's nothing left,
but you was able to make enoughand you was able to drink it.
You felt you smile, it wouldcome over your face.
You just was like, yes, it's awin.
That's the only time I was ableto reach that type of euphoria
(39:54):
was when I was doing thosethings.
Other than that I never feltlike I was going to get the
showbiz pizza.
I never felt like it waspossible.
And then one time for abirthday it wasn't my birthday,
it was a friend's birthday andthey were having a showbiz pizza
(40:15):
.
At that time I got lucky enoughto have a white friend I don't
remember his name.
I had a white friend.
He was having his birthdayparty showbiz pizza.
Y'all know this.
Chuck E Cheese was showbiz.
I was able to go and I had atime of my life in there.
(40:39):
My mom's was able to give melike $10 and she looked at me,
you know, saying let you knowthat, just a real 10.
It's a no regular 10.
This is a real 10.
Like, I'm giving you 10.
I don't want to give you butI'm trying to let you have a
childhood.
I don't want to give you this10 because I know it's going to
hurt me in two hours.
You ever give somebody somemoney that you know is going to
(41:02):
hurt you in the time frame.
You give them some money likethis is going to hurt me in two
hours.
You don't know this, but I'mgoing to be hurting for this
money.
She gave me that $10 and youknow, $10 inside of an arcade or
you know a showbiz.
Now I know it's Chucky, thatthat's the line.
Let's go stretch you out.
(41:22):
You could do some work withthat $10 that time you could do
some work with that.
So I had a blast.
I was the always wanted to be inthat place and they named it
Chucky cheese and they kept theanimatronics, they had these
robots in it and if you like areal like listen them things,
them things was cool.
They was fun.
(41:43):
For the like non ethnic kidsthey was fun, but for me I'm
like that's it.
I don't really know.
I'm saying that ain't my cup oftea.
It was about the games and thepizza demo Fuckers moved to.
You know I'm saying you knowthat ain't what I'm, you know
(42:04):
creepy.
I didn't really dig on that.
But as a kid you was like aslong as I stay away from that
stage, I ain't really got a trip.
You know he's singing songs andtheir head was moving all crazy
.
It was nobody inside, that wasall robotics.
So they was just moving and itmake you uncomfortable.
But as long as you stay awayfrom the stage and have friends,
some ski ball and some pizza.
(42:25):
You was good to go.
But what's crazy is that's abig part of Chuck E Cheese and
show biz piece of the Chuck ECheese.
That's a big part of.
That's why a lot of people go.
They got the robots.
They're known for that Right.
So to look up what is that thingcalled.
I got a.
(42:45):
What is that?
What is that?
She called Fast Freddy's.
Freddy's.
What is that?
Freddy's fries, freddy's.
The movie that just dropped.
I'm looking for it right now.
I just had it.
What the hell is that thing?
Freddy's five Freddy's is amovie.
Freddy's nights at five's,five's, freddy's.
I can't remember the name ofthe movie, but it just dropped.
(43:06):
It did decent.
It was over Halloween.
Chuck E Cheese decided to removethe night that that movie had
dropped.
Chuck E Cheese was like allright, we're going to get rid of
these guys.
All because of the movie, allbecause of the movies.
(43:28):
The great Chuck E Cheese whereyou could, finally, you could
barely find a location.
Yeah, I took a shot of him,right, but they removed it.
They're removing theanimatronics because of a movie.
That's the air.
We in the movie was a scarymovie.
(43:51):
They was like you know what?
We're going to remove this shit.
You know what I'm saying.
We're going to get this shitout of here because, yeah, you
know, this isn't.
This is too scary for kids tosee and it's so different of an
era because that shit beenaround since.
(44:12):
They've been around and they dothat for us.
They left them scarymotherfuckers in there, but
because of a movie havingsimilar animatronics or.
I've never played the game andI've never seen anything, you
know, and I've just been aroundas a part of the culture, the
pop culture, all that stuff.
I just never seen anything.
I never played the game,nothing but Damn.
(44:34):
You know what I'm saying.
Damn, they removed that and Iguess they're going with an
interactive dance floor and fromtokens to play cards and a but
Tokens.
You know they used to havetokens and put them in.
It's just wild man.
There's a lot of things change.
Things easily change.
(44:57):
Now it's a lot of sensitivity,but I get it.
I stayed away from them, damnthings when I was kid too.
I get it, but it's not justthings kind of wow, they want to
shift more modern because of amovie and maybe that's a good
thing for them, but because of amovie, it's changing the way
(45:21):
their spot is ran or how itlooks, how the kids will be able
to interact.
Damn, you know, I don't know,man, like they.
Basically, hockey is around andthen Jason was going around
killing folks in a hockey maskand then the hockey didn't say
(45:43):
you know what?
We just going to start wearingeye covers because Jason's too
scary.
We're not wearing them.
Type of mask no more.
Even though I know that it'snot the mask, they wear them.
But you get what I'm saying.
Don't be a hater, be acongratulator.
I just think that's why Iwanted to bring it up, because I
was like Chuck E Cheese is abig deal when I was a kid.
(46:03):
And now all of a sudden youlook up, they're changing their
thing over a movie.
Oh, I got about a good 10minutes now.
Ok, listen, all right.
You know how I feel aboutStephanie in the crew.
I know how I feel aboutStephanie in the crew.
Let me give them a round ofapplause for step.
(46:23):
You know how I feel about aGolden State Warriors.
You know how I feel about StephCurry, trigger, clay.
Wimsically devious Dremon Green.
Wimsically devious Dremon Green.
I love that word whimsically.
I use it a lot.
Whimsically devious Now I dowhen I read about it last year
when he, when he did the lightstuff, I call it a light
(46:45):
stomping.
That's a light stomping.
He did the subbonus in theplayoffs.
It wasn't, it wasn't come on.
He had no Tim's on, it wasn'tnegative 10 in New York when he
stomped them Is a Sacramento, itwas springtime.
(47:06):
You know, I'm saying it waslight.
He was whimsically devious forthat.
So I'm watching.
Actually, yeah, I was.
You know.
This is.
This happened when I was editingthe hour and 40 minute video,
right before I deleted it.
I knew the Warriors wereplaying because I put some money
(47:27):
up there.
I'm only one one time, thanks,warriors.
I was putting some money up andI said, oh shit, the game is on
.
Let me turn the game on on myphone and turn the game on right
.
When I turn the game on, it waschaos because it was 10 minutes
and it was two minutes into thegame.
It was already chaos and I'mlike I'm seeing Clay Clay
(47:47):
Thompson grab Jaden McDanielsand they throwing each other
around like trigger clay isgetting into some and don't make
it twisted, trigger clay, hetalks.
You know, he's a different, he'sa different breed.
It's very quiet, very fresh.
He'd be frustrated himself veryquiet.
He will talk some shit, but youdon't really see him getting
into no physical shit.
(48:08):
That's not even what triggerclay do.
And I don't know about JadenMcDaniels because I don't give a
fuck about the wolves.
I know about NBA players, butthere's no disrespect to him, I
just don't give a fuck.
You know what I'm saying.
I love the game of basketball,I love the NBA.
You know what I'm saying.
But if you ain't on my fantasyteam, I'm not playing 2K.
I'm not putting no money on you.
I barely know you.
(48:29):
Okay, but trigger, don't begetting into that.
And I looked up and theygrabbing each other's jersey and
then they yank each otheraround and Clay Jersey is ripped
but Rudy Gopar runs up behindClay.
Rudy Gopar is like seven footruns up behind Clay Grabbing him
(48:53):
.
You know J McDaniels, off tothe side, look like it's about
to ease up.
Cp threes in front of you knowwas talking to talk with the
trigger, trying to get in thereand break it up.
And if Ruby go bear comes in,grabs him behind, you know,
saying they don't do that shitin prison, I'm just playing.
But he goes up, grabs him upbehind and then Draymond
(49:15):
Draymond got like a light job.
I think if you keep Draymond'slight jogging just to try to get
in there and to check on histeammate and pick up speed and I
mean hit the guy and granted,when you look at Dre, draymond's
actually really fucking fastfor the position he plays and
(49:36):
the age that he's at anddisrespecting him.
Right, he's fast and he justkind of, and all of a sudden
he's seen Rudy go bear grabtrigger and he just put him.
He put him in a headlock.
Now the memes for this shit isfantastic.
I see the Joe Rogan talk abouthe's going to get the joke.
(49:56):
The Joe Rogan was fantastic.
There's a lot of memes for this.
But let me tell you somethinghe didn't have him for real.
He didn't have him for real.
You ever have like brothers andyou have your brother around the
neck and maybe he you know Sam,oh, maybe he had just unplugged
(50:17):
your, your, your gaming systemwhile you playing, because you
know you can't save shit forback of the day.
You playing Sega, you playingNintendo, super Nintendo,
dreamcast there's no, the gameautomatically saving you either
had to get to a point or youjust it just didn't save, you
turn it off.
You turn it off.
You had to start from thebeginning.
So maybe your brother unpluggedit.
(50:38):
Talk of shit, you grabbing bythe neck.
And you realize that my littlebrother, so I can't really, I
can't really hand him up, Ican't really choke him out,
cause then my mama coming withthe kung fu, right, and that's
what Dremon did.
Dremon had him and Dremon'smaking a whimsically devious
face, right, but he ain't reallygot him.
(51:00):
You can see, steve Kerr, youknow Steve Kerr was like that.
That.
You know that white guy who'sseen what happened, was trying
to get in your.
Oh my God, buddy, stop.
Oh my God, that's how SteveKerr was like oh, but Steve Kerr
knew Like that's my guy, steveKerr is competitive as shit,
(51:21):
that's my guys, what you'resupposed to do.
And I know he told him in theback in the locker room, was
like you know what I'm saying?
The game's over, all right,listen.
He already knew he should havetold somebody to find Dremon.
Hey, hey, don't he.
He should have just ran forDremon.
He should have.
Whatever was happening with Claycould have been getting his
eyes plucked out, because itdoesn't matter, find Dremon,
(51:45):
because that's all that matters,because Dremon is going to fuck
somebody up, it don't matter.
Clay getting stomped out coach.
Find Dremon, because thatstomping cool Clay going.
Clay going to heal with Dremonabout to knock some niggas out
and it's about to be suspensionsall over the place and we need
them at least for 30 gamesbecause he's bound, because the
(52:08):
way the league treats him, he go.
That dude passes enough ofstrong gas and he gone for two
games and I see all the clips hekicking motherfuckers in the
balls or something like that.
Granted, there's some shit yoususpect about you.
Like man, damn bro, are you alittle dirty?
I think you're a little dirty,but that's what makes him like a
legendary player.
Motherfuckers was back then.
Everybody was cheap shot andeverybody in the 80s and 90s
(52:31):
Take this elbow with you, takethis motherfucking shit to your
kneecap.
I'm not saying that that shitis welcome, but that's what was
going on.
You need a motherfucker whofired chippy ready to get in
somebody's face.
You know what I'm saying.
Give him something to the gut,let him know.
This shit ain't.
This shit ain't easy.
This shit ain't cake.
Dremon's whimsically deviousClay Thompson getting stomped
out, coach, it don't matter.
(52:52):
Find Dremon, because there'sgoing to be a left pool pool.
Was this damn near in a comawhen he called him Find Dremon.
Now I listen.
As soon as I seen Dremon havingfrom the neck and take him from
(53:13):
where he was at almost to thebench, I said I said yikes, he
didn't let him go quick enough.
He didn't let him go quickenough.
He didn't let him go Again.
It wasn't tight, it's just thatgo bears seven, seven, one, and
(53:36):
when you got a strong enoughgrab around your back, you bent.
You bent weird, and he took himtoo far of a distance.
You know what I'm saying.
You got your corner store, hetook him to the corner store and
you see Dremon's face.
You see everybody like thisdude, go kill this dude, what he
(53:58):
didn't really happen like that,because you can see the go bear
, go bear lights, get here tohave him.
He'd have been turning red toblue.
Go bear did look like he wantedto call the manager, he wanted
to call the police.
I am ready to press charges.
He needs to be put down.
He is a rabbit dog.
But if go bear never runs andtouches Clay Thompson Dremon
(54:24):
Green never does any of that andthen they do everybody out of
the.
They do.
They do Clay Thompson totrigger out the game.
They do Jade McDaniels out thegame, and you know, you know and
they even.
The crazy thing is they wentfar enough to talk about the
(54:48):
flagrant to for Dremon.
That's how you knew.
I said, oh yeah, he about tosauce him up because they just
talked about ejection withejection with trigger.
They talked about ejection withJade McDaniels, but they went
into detail.
Flagrant to you're out of there, right, and you just knew it.
(55:09):
Motherfuckers is calling for 10, 10 game suspension.
You're criminal, jay Williams,talking about 10 games
suspension.
Let me tell you something.
In a sport or in real life, myGod, you want your teammates to
have your back.
Man, you ever been in something?
(55:29):
You in a squabble, you in thetussle, you in a one on one
batch match and somebodyrandomly come grab you and
somebody able to hit you or kickyou or whatever.
And, the surprise of it all,somebody just grabbed.
What are you doing when youwatch it?
That shit was coming to an end.
Go bear grabs him, dream on,says what the fuck?
(55:50):
I got your n***a and he pullsthem off, but they gave him five
games.
I I have to say he dodged itbecause I really they do that
dude so dirty and I get it, Iget it.
You know I'm saying you're the,you're the.
He's the black man who you knowkeeps showing up in front of
(56:14):
the judge and you know the judgeis tired of seeing him and it's
like, damn, mr Green, you backagain and green light man.
Come on, man, you got tounderstand the judge.
Like I don't really even care,man, I got a subway sandwich in
the back to eat.
This is easy.
Slams the gavel and there yougo, you off.
(56:35):
This is a bit extreme, but youoff the records.
So he actually dodged what Ithought they was really going to
hang him on.
They got him last year in theplayoffs with the Wimsley Divya
stomp and I'm like that to meyou got you ain't looking
subbonus.
I'm so tired of them notlooking at others.
Go, bear is able to stay in thegame.
You're not looking at others.
(56:57):
They see Dreymon, oh yeah, butnot knowing man.
His love for the basketball issmart for the basketball, great
for the game.
Even the rough and stuff withthe Afro puff, even that part of
the game Keeps the NBA exciting.
(57:18):
Everybody shakes hands.
They love each other.
Oh, hey, pal, hey, how you doingGreen could be cool with you
off the court, but on the court,as a Golden State warrior, this
dude is a warrior.
I don't care, he don't care.
He going to let the rest haveit.
(57:40):
Dude is smart and I thinkthat's why he's able to talk for
so long.
That's why he's able to bitchfor so long, because he's
extremely intelligent when itcomes to the game of basketball.
It's not the rookie, it's notthe four years, not the five
years, not, it's somebody who'sa veteran and he's shown extreme
intelligence.
That's why he's able to talkand talk the way he talks to the
(58:03):
refs.
But man, that was tough boy.
Oh, draymond going for fivegames, oh, he ain't playing
tonight either.
Oh, steph is not playingtonight either.
My God man.
But Steph is cool.
He just had a little tweak of aknee issue.
They just, you know, they don'tplay about Steph.
Steph, steph, walk over thesideline.
(58:25):
He's like man, I got thishanging there.
They'll put him in bubble wrapand we won't see Steph for two
weeks.
Off a hang now.
We won't see Steph for twoweeks.
They do not play about theassassin, about Steph Lee Snipes
.
They do not play about him.
As soon they say Steph came incoughing, we sent them home we
get.
We sent the doctors over to hishouse.
(58:46):
He ain't even here.
We won't see him for two weeks.
Steph was coughing wrong.
He said, man, just a regularcold.
They said, no, steph, take yourtime, we we're not even going
to fuck, we're not even fuckaround with you because you take
a franchise from the red andyou make it a billion dollar
company.
You best believe.
You best believe we send in thebest Norwegian doctor all the
way over for your regular,regular day cough and you are
(59:09):
not allowed to play.
Hang now, two weeks gone.
If this is a playoffs, didtweak this knee, he'd be playing
for sure.
Hell, I've even seen Steph.
I've even seen Steve Kerr holdhim out of playoffs.
That's how much they don't playabout Stephie.
So he's not playing tonight.
Dream on greens not playing forthe next five games.

He's the different type ofenergy.
Different type of energy.
His energy is, you know, equalto you know.

That's a cool motherfucker andhis clothing line is dope, but
he was pushing the red.
I got a laptop to worry about.
(03:33):
He was going and he was going.
So we talked about a lot ofthings and guess what I did
After we finished Hour and 40minutes, the video was going to
be an hour and 40 minutes.
I'm working on it.
I'm editing.
Now, remember, I don't have theskills.
(03:56):
I learn these things and someof A lot of the apps will hold
your hand and help you throughthese processes, but I learn
these things.
This is not something that Iwent to school for.
I dabble, I'm a dabbler and I'mstarting to pick up an interest
for video editing.
So you know, I'm editing thevideos.
(04:18):
An hour and 40 minutes worth ofwork.
I'm doing what I'm supposed tobe doing, you know.
And my laptop is a Mac M1 Gotit in 2021.
It's two years, about to bethree years old.
Happy birthday to my Mac.
I don't know when, the exactday I bought it, but I'm sure it
was a happy birthday About tobe three years in 2024, right.
(04:39):
So it wasn't cheap.
I mean it wasn't top of theline at the time, but it wasn't
cheap.
It was about $17,000.
I spent about $17,000.
Now you know what.
I might spend a little bit moreon that, maybe close to $2,000,
someone around that but itwasn't cheap.
You know what I'm saying andI'm editing.
(05:02):
I'm running out of space.
You know Now my boy, craigVisions.
He knows all about thisRendering videos and how long it
takes, how much space is goingto jam up, and I've heard the
complaints about it and I usedto do music, you know.
So I've always known about thespace and how much space you
(05:23):
need and your hard drive actinga fool and you're trying to find
things to delete.
It's a fucking headache.
It's a monstrous headache thatis hard to remove Because
there's no proper Tylenol Forthat type of headache.
You must focus in, figure outwhat to delete so you get the
(05:49):
space.
So here I am Working on thishour and 40 minute video.
I'm inside a cap cut, thedesktop cap cut, because Lord
knows if I had put that shit inmy phone and I've done some
editing in my phone and thatthing got to moving slower than
a 90 year old woman Inside ofall these in the Midwest.
That shit, that's not the move.
(06:10):
But so I'm starting to edit, I'mediting.
I was like my laptop is tellingme fam, you have no space bro,
you have no space, we can't.
You can't render this, youcan't export this.
This is not going to work out.
So I'm like, okay, let's go inthere, let's try to find some of
the old videos, let's try tofind some clips, some Files,
(06:32):
some photos.
Let's try to empty spaceBecause I haven't bought an
external hard drive.
I know what the geeks and thenerds are going to tell me you
don't have any hard drives, bro.
I haven't bought any harddrives, bro.
Just listen to the story, trynot to judge, right.
So I'm looking for things toedit.
(06:52):
I mean to delete, right.
I go in, I see some things, Igo into the settings, I go into
general, I go into the storage.
I see I'm like, okay, cool,there's some big ass 7 gig

Yeah, because what the fuck?
An hour, a minute hour I can'tkeep saying hour, minute hour
and 40 minute video that I hadsomebody come over record we
(09:02):
talk great conversation and it'sjust gone.
And then I went and I got likedisc, disc, a drill, and I'm
trying to find the videosomewhere in the hard drive,
somewhere in there.
It's still there.
Because I'm like if I'mwatching NCIS I know they can
scrape and find whatever theyneed to find.
(09:22):
I can do the same thing.
There's got to be sometechnology.
But then I realized I'm just anigga in downtown Phoenix.
I don't have the same type ofstaff money technology that the
cops, the federal agents have.
So I'm fucked.
So I'm trying to dig, I don'tfind any success and I'm screwed
.
And JT was pumped.
(09:43):
He was pumped, he was excitedabout it.
He was pumped, he's pumpedabout the video, the video
interview, because it was hisfirst one.
He's pumped, excited, can'twait for me to drop it.
And I had to let him know.
I didn't have the the cool ex,I was mad at the time.
I don't have the cool news.
I didn't have the cool in histo call him and tell him that I
(10:08):

things, man, I tried scrapingand I tried to find it.
I couldn't.
He was hurt, I was hurt, I wasmad.
I didn't do nothing for therest of the night.
For real, actually, I take thatback.
I did go through a power whileof palting, I wanted to break my
(10:54):
laptop, tear my TV off the wall.
It's a lot of work.
It's a lot of work when youdon't have, like, the knowledge,
the quick knowledge bang, bang,bang, bang, bang.
I'm getting better, I've gottenbetter.
I do videos in the club and Iput them together and stuff like

I was destroyed.
I was in my feelings.
But you want to know what tookme out of my feelings?
Call of duty, warzone, warzonetook me out of my feelings.
(11:40):
So I got my really old ass upand spend some hours playing
some call of duty, bitching toCraig visions about how I
massacred, massacred, massacredmy video and how mad I was.
(12:02):
So I asked JT to come backthrough.

.
Go spend some money on herproduct, you know.
Go spend some money on the gear.
I'm looking forward to it and Iknow you will enjoy it.
(16:05):
Now, moving on from all thatstuff that went on, it was like
just like a Thailand trafficSpider web worth a shit.
I just went through now thatthat's talked about and done.
Um, I don't usually.
You know, I used to play a lotof music In these episodes,
right, I used to drop a lot ofmusic because I'm a music head,
I love music, I love to, I loveto sing, you know I'm saying.
(16:28):
You know I'm saying I love the.
You know I'm saying I love the.
You know I love the same andI'm a big music guy.
(16:49):
Right, I just put music clips.
You know, all the time dropsand stuff like that.
And then Spotify was telling meno, no more, no more, you
cannot do that, no more.
And YouTube was telling me whatI was putting my click no, no,
no, no more.
So I don't put music in hereand you just have to hear me a
(17:11):
lot.
I do put some, some backgroundmusic as clear.
You know I'm saying so you can.
You know it ain't just merumbling tumble.
You get a little a little extrasomething behind my talking.
You get a little a little funbehind it, you know.
So music.
And I want to get on the factthat you know Drake had dropped
(17:32):
Think it's for all my dogs,right, he had dropped that.
I had no problem with it.
You know Like I can getdetailed when it comes to music.
I don't have no problem with it.
It's, it's Drake.
You know a lot of the.
The super die-hard fans Couldbe in a tussle Russell muscle
about it, but I didn't reallytrip.
Is what Drake does?
(17:54):
Drake is one of three, maybefour people that's still
providing an actual album,actually trying, actually caring
to provide you with somequality music.
It's not chasing a hit, notchasing a tiktok song, just
creating music.
It's gotta be refreshing toyour ears, even if you're having
(18:16):
a hard time Accepting that.
You don't get the old Drake.
I never got the old Kanye.
I had to deal with the newKanye.
I never got the old Kanye.
I accepted the new Kanye forhow he was.
He was still providing me withHardcore work.
That's why I appreciated them,Because he was still providing
(18:37):
me With effort, energy,creativity.
Even if there's songs you don'tlike, you gotta appreciate the
work, the effort, the creativity.
Right, because a lot of catschase the tiktok, a lot of
artists chase the tiktok.
They chase the Graham song andthat's what they ride they had
on.
But complete work is hard tofind.
(18:59):
Like I used to listen toanything that Dr Dre had his
hands on, because he had a lotof work Dr Dre had his hands on
because he mastered.
He mastered beautifully.
It always sounded amazing.
There's a lot of Nettoons andPharrell beats that I'd be like
well, I don't know what the hellthey were doing, but I
(19:19):
appreciate the creativity andtrying, because that those are
my guys, that's my favoriteproducers, that's my favorite
producer.
Those guys put work increativity, work, energy, trying
to give you something different, trying to Trying to get you to
see, see sounds, see colorsyour ears can have.
(19:42):
They could jump for joy, theycould go oh, what is this?
This is different.
Maybe there are records that hityou over time.
There are a lot of songs thatJay Z had dropped back in the
day I was like, hmm, thisdisgusting, I don't like this,
this ain't what I'm about, Idon't fuck with this.
And I look up 20 years laterI'm like you know what, jay,
this is a fucking good record.
Same thing with DMX.
(20:06):
I'm from Kansas City, soanything from New York was funky
to me, right.
No, over time I was like, damnthis nigga's really good.
Damn this nigga's really good.
Shit.
I'm from Kansas City.
Big tech, nine fan.
Big tech, nine fan.
There's a lot of records whereI'm like you know, tech of Nina
(20:26):
McFlo, I don't really like this.
And then, years later, I'm likeDamn tech.
It took me that long to getEminem's, probably one of the
more, one of the one of theartists that blows my mind years
later, cuz I'm like, oh, I getthat punchline now, I got it, I
got it, and I say it to myself.
And then I realized it'sembarrassing if I had set it
(20:47):
around people who were reallyinto lyrics, because they had
already got it and I hadn't gotit and I had dead music and then
I had didn't really, but butthat's what happened, I have a
really I oh, I Hear that, I hearthat and I failed you Eminem as
a fan.
I did not hear that.
But Drake's last album wasacceptable to me.
(21:09):
It's what Drake does.
You know you go to the store.
You want to get some candy.
They're mad.
I want to get some candy, yourpeanut Eminem guy.
Go get you some peanut Eminem.
You know they're gonna tastelike peanut Eminem's.
They're always there, theynever let you down.
They don't taste.
You know I'm saying like thesame type of candy you would get
(21:30):
from a dollar general.
There's probably peanutEminem's, but it tastes like I
got a little bit of rubber in it, little bit of rubbing alcohol
in it.
Nah, you go to, you go to thequick trip, or you go to the
fries.
You go to the Walmart target.
You get some peanut Eminem's.
Yes, what you gonna get.
You get peanut Eminem's.
It can take like peanutEminem's.
Now, granted, some of them cancan look like sloth from the
(21:52):
Goonies.
You know I'm saying, hey, youknow they can look a little bit.
They've deformed, but it tasteslike peanut Eminem's.
That's what Drake is to be.
You can never be upset.
He's gonna give you exactlywhat he's gonna give you, but he
has new music.
Dropping Sip of the coffee.
(22:14):
He has new music droppingtonight.
I Called scary hours three and Ithink the last time I'm seeing,
the last time I think he didthat.
It was like two or threerecords on there.
All right, three records, scaryhour threes, I you know, and
there's no.
There's no known if there's afeature on there.
(22:36):
But I always get excitedBecause the internet gets
excited and in music there's notmuch to get excited about
anymore.
I Mean, I did have a lot of joywatching and still watching
Taylor Swift be at chiefs gamesand stuff like it, you know.
But as far as music I reallywant to listen to and I'm a
(22:57):
Swiftie, I consider myself aswiftie.
I don't know every record, butwhen she pops out I'm like, oh,
that's Taylor Swift, my honestTaylor Swift, and I'm on that
record.
But when there's music fromsomebody I just listened to on a
reggae, on the regs on thereggae, I get a little bit
excited.
The internet pumps me up.
(23:18):
So he's dropping scary hoursthree tonight.
So for the people that hear this, I'm pretty sure you're going
to be a Drake fan.
You know, tonight I think it'smidnight Scary hour three will
drop and we'll see what the youknow the few records to be
supposed to be probably abouttwo or three new records on
there.
It's always nice to get somenew Drake records and see what
(23:40):
it's about.
I'm hoping it's some dope shit.
I expect it to be some dopeshit, some fun shit or some
peanut M&M's Most likely thepeanut M&M's and in the other
part of that that's really dopeis that him and Jay Cole Another
person that's a part of thethree to four that make actual
(24:00):
albums, but Jay Cole's you knowthe light skin leprechaun with a
fro right, get that into therainbow.
There he is holding the pot ofgold and then he's gone.
It's like, oh shit, there's,there's the leprechaun, jay Cole
with the, with the, with thehair.
He's got the pot of you knowpot of gold in his hand and then
(24:24):
you get it and he's gone.
And then you reappear becauseyou hear about the rainbow being
in another direction thedirection years later.
I think that's what it is Right.
He's a.
You know, I disappear here.
Pop up, drop some music, go ona tour.
Holler.
I used to.
(24:46):
I used to say the artist likeit because you don't get a lot
right.
They drop music, they do theirtour and they disappear, so you
don't feel like you get a lot,especially nowadays when
everybody's kind of more indepth.
They show you inside of theirhouse, they show you their
(25:07):
process.
You see what type of food theyeating before they record or
before they go on a stage.
You see what type of lubethey're using before they have
sex.
You see everything now.
But people like Eminem and thenJay Cole and you know Jay Z to,
(25:28):
you know, because he's withBeyonce you see a lot about, you
see, you know what?
Not really, because you knoweverybody thinks Beyonce alien,
so they probably don't show asmuch because they live in a
spaceship and then when they,when she gets done performing,
they're like, oh shit, beyoncegoing on her private plane.
But she really get on thespaceship and the spaceship fool
, fool with it like alien foodand they get on it alien food
(25:49):
and they take off becauseeverybody thinks Beyonce a
reptilian alien and Jay Zprobably is actually human and
they just forced him to be thereand he looked cool but he
really just scared in behind thescenes.
He don't know what to dobecause if I leave they won't
kill me.
They don't kill everybody in myfamily because she's an alien,
but that's just what everybodysay on YouTube.
I ain't saying it's true or not, that's what everybody's saying
on YouTube.
Anyway, you don't really get alot from Jay Cole.
(26:14):
You know you get the music.
People love it.
It's about a week, week and ahalf Now.
About a week he does numbersand then poof, he's gone.
That's not a problem with that,because I'm a private person.
I like to be private.
I want to share my relationshipwith people.
(26:35):
You know what I'm saying.
I don't like to share my doglike that.
That's my guy, winston Roarroar.
It's my guy, right.
So I understand being private,but sometimes, from a fan
standpoint, you just would liketo see a little bit more,
especially in the era of seeingeverything.
(26:55):
But he's one of the ones whogive you effort, creativity,
lyrics.
You know he put the time in togive you some real work.
You got to appreciate it right.
But him and Drake are going ontour Now.
I don't do concerts.
I'm not a concert person.
Um, I don't usually do comedystandups.
(27:20):
I went to see Chappelle andChris Rock because you know what
I'm saying.
If you got comedy right, youthink comedy and then you think
God's and you say, ok, there'slike four or five of them.
For me, those are two of thefour or five.
You know what I'm saying.
(27:41):
So I went to go see that.
But concerts, I'm not a big.
I went to see Jay-Z when I wasyounger, probably like 14.
It's a hard night life tour forthe folks that are younger.
If you go, look at the date,shame on you, because why are
you trying to insult me?
You know what I'm saying.
I can hear your hate when youtype in the hard night life to
it and you see it was like 96.
(28:02):
That's disrespectful.
Don't do that.
It's like 98.
Actually it's like 98.
Um, but I went there and Iactually was so.
So I was like I was like 15.
It's 15 at the time.
So I went there and I 16.
So I went there because itmight have been 99.
(28:23):
Yeah, it's like 99.
So I went there and, dude, Igot to go backstage and I'm
getting on.
Of course this is what I do.
That's why you listen to me.
It's my shit.
So you hear, I went backstage,16 years old, right, I'm in the
music now.
You know, my boy KB is makingbeats on free loops.
Free loops is becoming thething.
(28:44):
He's making them from hiscomputer, you know, and I'm
getting into the music.
So I'm like, and he didn't wantto go backstage, we just allowed
to go backstage.
I don't know how we got tobackstage, but we was allowed to
go, right, I don't remember howit happened and I didn't really
care about going, but I endedup going to the hard night life,
to a concert tour.
So then we get to go backstage.
He didn't want to go backstage.
I don't know why he didn't wantto go backstage, but I had the
(29:06):
heart because I'm a, I'm amotherfucking G.
You know I'm saying you put mein front of a line, I'm gonna
stare that line down because I'ma motherfucking G.
You know I'm saying I ain'trunning from nobody, nothing,
unless it's a beat.
Wasp, spider, water, tornadoes,hurricanes, too many ants, too
(29:35):
many gnats, too many flies.
I leave all that shit.
But a lion, I'll stare thatmotherfucker down inside of a
armored tank.
You thought it was.
You thought now ain't fuckingwith no lion, I'm getting the
fuck out of there.
Anyway, but I go backstage,right, and when I get backstage,
(29:58):
let me go back to that youthought I was.
Ah, you, did dogs go put myselfin an armored tank, did you?
And I go backstage and I see along line of hot ladies, hot
women, just a long.
I mean this line was long.
I have a shitty memory but Iremember this because it was a
(30:21):
lot of it was a lot of boobiesand a lot of booty and it was a
long line.
I was like, damn this,backstage, behind, behind the
concerts, and backstage, 16years old.
I looked like a convict, evenwhen I was 16.
So they was like, damn, thisnigga need to be doing security.
I was like, nah, fam, I'm only16 and back up.
You know what I'm saying.
And I see this long line ofwomen and I'm like, and they was
(30:45):
just in front of one door.
It was one door.
I'm not lying to you when I saythis.
It was one door, gold knob, andit had to easily be about 80 to
100 women lying down the wall.
And I'm like, are they?
Are they wanting to go intothis room To maybe perform a
(31:10):
little JLo hustle dance?
You know what I'm saying.
I don't know, I'm 16.
I can imagine anything.
I was blown away.
The line was long.
It was all women, all women.
I seem like Beanie Segalwalking around.
You know what I'm saying.
And they couldn't even go in.
(31:32):
They didn't even go in the room.
I don't have to be Jay-Z, right?
I think I seen DMX walkingaround.
You know what I'm saying.
Had to be Jay-Z in that room.
It was such a long line, I wasblown away.
And then and then, as I'mwalking around, I was getting a
little nervous because I was bymyself.
I was getting a little nervousas to whether they tried to jump
.
You know what I'm saying.
I wasn't really thinking likethat because it was nothing but
(31:53):
women all back there and a fewsecurity dudes, right, actually
a lot of security.
But I was like then you wouldsee the gold knob turn and then
they would come.
And there was one woman wouldcome out and another one would
go in.
I'm like it's no way thatthere's a lot of draining going
on.
You can't service this many Inthat room.
(32:14):
It could be big, but it can'tbe big like that.
So it's like is it like eightmotherfuckers in a closet size
room trying to service, tryingto get service from all these
women?
At my mind was blonde, I was 16.
Don't judge me.
I didn't know what was going on, so I eventually left.
So I'm not a big concert guy.
That's really what the storywas all about.
Not because you know that was abad concert, it was dope.
(32:36):
I was like Jay-Z DMX, the lockswas on there.
That was a legendary tour.
But J Cole and Drake going ontour, I pop out for that, I pop
out for that.
I forgot where they, where theysay they were going.
I guess I'm going to see.
(32:58):
And the tour, presented by Cash,app and Visa, will feature
Drake and J Cole performingacross multiple dates.
The tour dates it kicks offwith back to back shows in
Denver at the ball arena onJanuary 18th and 19th 2024, and
it includes stops in cities likeOklahoma City, new Orleans,
(33:22):
nashville and more, concludingon March 27th in Birmingham at
the BJCC legacy arena.
Hmm, not going to come byPhoenix.
Drake came by here on the it'sall a blur.
I think that's what it was.
It's all a blur tour orwhatever it was.
Came by here, did two shows Notgoing to come by with with J
(33:45):
Cole.
And the funny thing was I wasnext to J Cole.
Yeah, like I, like I'm in amechanic.
I'm a mechanic in the shop withmy cigarette.
My nigga, nigga 10 years ago.
I next J Cole in the club.
Yeah, nigga, look at scaredshit in the club.
(34:06):
You know, nigga, he all bigtime you want to do shit, ride
his bike with a fro and have it,be happy and be buried and have
a million dollars, a lot ofbuddy and shit.
You know they go acting allscary shit.
What he's the, what he's theclub, they just did it.
It motherfucking it do nothing.
They even just standing like asquare, you know, say the guys
at their party and bitches allaround these shit.
(34:27):
You know that's what I soundlike, but I was actually next to
him and he was chill.
That's how I am in the club.
But he was super chill, wasn'treally, weren't really into
doing too much, just chilling.
Um, everybody else around himwas having a ball.
I mean you couldn't, couldn'timagine what was going on around
him, but he was chilling,didn't stay too long, got out of
(34:49):
there.
You know it was cool because bythat time he had, uh, you know,
one of my records that Ienjoyed nobody's perfect, with
Missy LA.
And then you know, of course,every day of stars born off the
blue pen three album with JZ,how he was introduced to us, to
the world.
I mean it gets no better thanthat outside of in the club and
(35:09):
50 cent.
But it gets no better than that, because he just put you on and
you was able to lyrically say,do your shit.
And everybody was like damn,hmm, that motherfucker special.
And he continued on and heactually became special and Jay
Z never seemed like he helpedthat nigga at all.
I did that one moment.
We don't know the background,we don't know the backstory, but
(35:30):
it seemed like that one recordand I think Jay Z was on his
album one time.
It was like a dubstep type beatand after that he had.
You didn't even I don't thinkeven niggas even took pictures
shaking hands together that manytimes.
It was just that was it.
But J Cole is a guy who coulddrop an album with no features
and still do the numbers andthen go on tour.
(35:52):
It's weird but it's dope.
So they got the Drake and theygot the J Cole tour and that's
uh, I'm gonna be spending somemoney, I'm gonna go.
I would go if they were here.
There's nothing.
There's nothing saying I'mgoing to go to O K C, nah, nah,
when I'm looking for vacationsor I'm looking to go do
(36:13):
something cool, I'm not puttinga pin on O K C being like yeah,
that's where I want to go.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, you know I'm not.
You know, you know Alabama, youknow what I'm saying.
Birmingham, you know, those areall probably really dope places
(36:33):
.
I'm just saying, and I thinkthe people living there would
say I'm not really trying to puta pin here If I was living
somewhere else and I was likeyou know what, I want to go see
J Cole.
You know what I'm saying.
Most time you will not.
I'm gonna go to LA, I'm gonnago to Vegas, go to New York, and
then you, that's where you wantto go see them at.
Okay, see Nah, brrr, yeah.
(36:57):
And there ain't nothing wrongwith the cities.
I'm just saying spending myhard earned money to take a
flight to those places ain't onmy list of things to do in my
life.
You know what I'm saying.
Anyway, I ain't clearing mythroat today.
Coffee, you fucking with me,huh.
(37:18):
But moving on, I wanted to talkabout something near and dear to
my heart.
When I was a wee lad, when Iwas a wee lad, there was a place
, a place you would go, and theplace was called Chuck E Cheese.
Oh, I'm so sorry, showbiz Pizza.
Showbiz Pizza was a place that,as a young black kid, you felt
(37:46):
like you would never be able toget there, because if you were
poor and you were in the ghetto,it was just seemed like a place
you couldn't get to.
It was never, never land.
You know what I'm saying.
You can't get there.
Disneyland, as a black ghettokid.
They were winning the SuperBowl and I'm going to Disneyland
(38:06):
, or you would see Disneylandcommercials and you would look
at your mama and she'd be likeno nigga.
Before you even know you seethem cockroaches crawling on the
floor.
No, you see what.
You see what is headed.
You know what I'm saying.
You see what is headed.
We, I got, we got everything byluck as a kid.
(38:29):
You know what I'm saying.
Some, some crackhead, stole newtwo Nintendo's and gave it to
somebody that knew, somebodythat we know, and they was like
well, we don't even need this,you want.
Everything was by luck becausewe was poor.
Everything was by luck.
Anything with some luxury is byluck.
Cable is probably more likethat.
It was through my grandpa.
We was able to have cable inthe house.
(38:51):
He was able to provide that bypure luck because he knew
somebody that worked for thecable place.
It wasn't like he was willingto pay for it, he had to plug or
grandpa was gangster,everything was by luck.
So going to show biz pizza wassomething that you just felt
(39:11):
like you could never like.
I'm never going to be able togo to your dry past and it'd be
full and busy.
And you see all the kids comingin, white kids with pizza boxes
, and they just got a smile ontheir face.
You can't even touch, you can'teven get to, you can't even
reach it unless you have somereally, really, really full
glass of sugary Kool-Aid.
That's the only time you getthat type of joy when your shit
(39:31):
is full of sugar and it's theKool-Aid's probably cherry and
you was hitting it and you waslike, oh, that's a smile on your
face.
When you got lucky, you couldget the Hershey's chocolate
syrup and you could put it inwith the milk you had just
enough.
You get to the bottom of youhear that there's nothing left,
but you was able to make enoughand you was able to drink it.
You felt you smile, it wouldcome over your face.
You just was like, yes, it's awin.
That's the only time I was ableto reach that type of euphoria
(39:54):
was when I was doing thosethings.
Other than that I never feltlike I was going to get the
showbiz pizza.
I never felt like it waspossible.
And then one time for abirthday it wasn't my birthday,
it was a friend's birthday andthey were having a showbiz pizza
(40:15):
.
At that time I got lucky enoughto have a white friend I don't
remember his name.
I had a white friend.
He was having his birthdayparty showbiz pizza.
Y'all know this.
Chuck E Cheese was showbiz.
I was able to go and I had atime of my life in there.
(40:39):
My mom's was able to give melike $10 and she looked at me,
you know, saying let you knowthat, just a real 10.
It's a no regular 10.
This is a real 10.
Like, I'm giving you 10.
I don't want to give you butI'm trying to let you have a
childhood.
I don't want to give you this10 because I know it's going to
hurt me in two hours.
You ever give somebody somemoney that you know is going to
(41:02):
hurt you in the time frame.
You give them some money likethis is going to hurt me in two
hours.
You don't know this, but I'mgoing to be hurting for this
money.
She gave me that $10 and youknow, $10 inside of an arcade or
you know a showbiz.
Now I know it's Chucky, thatthat's the line.
Let's go stretch you out.
(41:22):
You could do some work withthat $10 that time you could do
some work with that.
So I had a blast.
I was the always wanted to be inthat place and they named it
Chucky cheese and they kept theanimatronics, they had these
robots in it and if you like areal like listen them things,
them things was cool.
They was fun.
(41:43):
For the like non ethnic kidsthey was fun, but for me I'm
like that's it.
I don't really know.
I'm saying that ain't my cup oftea.
It was about the games and thepizza demo Fuckers moved to.
You know I'm saying you knowthat ain't what I'm, you know
(42:04):
creepy.
I didn't really dig on that.
But as a kid you was like aslong as I stay away from that
stage, I ain't really got a trip.
You know he's singing songs andtheir head was moving all crazy
.
It was nobody inside, that wasall robotics.
So they was just moving and itmake you uncomfortable.
But as long as you stay awayfrom the stage and have friends,
some ski ball and some pizza.
(42:25):
You was good to go.
But what's crazy is that's abig part of Chuck E Cheese and
show biz piece of the Chuck ECheese.
That's a big part of.
That's why a lot of people go.
They got the robots.
They're known for that Right.
So to look up what is that thingcalled.
I got a.
(42:45):
What is that?
What is that?
She called Fast Freddy's.
Freddy's.
What is that?
Freddy's fries, freddy's.
The movie that just dropped.
I'm looking for it right now.
I just had it.
What the hell is that thing?
Freddy's five Freddy's is amovie.
Freddy's nights at five's,five's, freddy's.
I can't remember the name ofthe movie, but it just dropped.
(43:06):
It did decent.
It was over Halloween.
Chuck E Cheese decided to removethe night that that movie had
dropped.
Chuck E Cheese was like allright, we're going to get rid of
these guys.
All because of the movie, allbecause of the movies.
(43:28):
The great Chuck E Cheese whereyou could, finally, you could
barely find a location.
Yeah, I took a shot of him,right, but they removed it.
They're removing theanimatronics because of a movie.
That's the air.
We in the movie was a scarymovie.
(43:51):
They was like you know what?
We're going to remove this shit.
You know what I'm saying.
We're going to get this shitout of here because, yeah, you
know, this isn't.
This is too scary for kids tosee and it's so different of an
era because that shit beenaround since.
(44:12):
They've been around and they dothat for us.
They left them scarymotherfuckers in there, but
because of a movie havingsimilar animatronics or.
I've never played the game andI've never seen anything, you
know, and I've just been aroundas a part of the culture, the
pop culture, all that stuff.
I just never seen anything.
I never played the game,nothing but Damn.
(44:34):
You know what I'm saying.
Damn, they removed that and Iguess they're going with an
interactive dance floor and fromtokens to play cards and a but
Tokens.
You know they used to havetokens and put them in.
It's just wild man.
There's a lot of things change.
Things easily change.
(44:57):
Now it's a lot of sensitivity,but I get it.
I stayed away from them, damnthings when I was kid too.
I get it, but it's not justthings kind of wow, they want to
shift more modern because of amovie and maybe that's a good
thing for them, but because of amovie, it's changing the way
(45:21):
their spot is ran or how itlooks, how the kids will be able
to interact.
Damn, you know, I don't know,man, like they.
Basically, hockey is around andthen Jason was going around
killing folks in a hockey maskand then the hockey didn't say
(45:43):
you know what?
We just going to start wearingeye covers because Jason's too
scary.
We're not wearing them.
Type of mask no more.
Even though I know that it'snot the mask, they wear them.
But you get what I'm saying.
Don't be a hater, be acongratulator.
I just think that's why Iwanted to bring it up, because I
was like Chuck E Cheese is abig deal when I was a kid.
(46:03):
And now all of a sudden youlook up, they're changing their
thing over a movie.
Oh, I got about a good 10minutes now.
Ok, listen, all right.
You know how I feel aboutStephanie in the crew.
I know how I feel aboutStephanie in the crew.
Let me give them a round ofapplause for step.
(46:23):
You know how I feel about aGolden State Warriors.
You know how I feel about StephCurry, trigger, clay.
Wimsically devious Dremon Green.
Wimsically devious Dremon Green.
I love that word whimsically.
I use it a lot.
Whimsically devious Now I dowhen I read about it last year
when he, when he did the lightstuff, I call it a light
(46:45):
stomping.
That's a light stomping.
He did the subbonus in theplayoffs.
It wasn't, it wasn't come on.
He had no Tim's on, it wasn'tnegative 10 in New York when he
stomped them Is a Sacramento, itwas springtime.
(47:06):
You know, I'm saying it waslight.
He was whimsically devious forthat.
So I'm watching.
Actually, yeah, I was.
You know.
This is.
This happened when I was editingthe hour and 40 minute video,
right before I deleted it.
I knew the Warriors wereplaying because I put some money
(47:27):
up there.
I'm only one one time, thanks,warriors.
I was putting some money up andI said, oh shit, the game is on
.
Let me turn the game on on myphone and turn the game on right
.
When I turn the game on, it waschaos because it was 10 minutes
and it was two minutes into thegame.
It was already chaos and I'mlike I'm seeing Clay Clay
(47:47):
Thompson grab Jaden McDanielsand they throwing each other
around like trigger clay isgetting into some and don't make
it twisted, trigger clay, hetalks.
You know, he's a different, he'sa different breed.
It's very quiet, very fresh.
He'd be frustrated himself veryquiet.
He will talk some shit, but youdon't really see him getting
into no physical shit.
(48:08):
That's not even what triggerclay do.
And I don't know about JadenMcDaniels because I don't give a
fuck about the wolves.
I know about NBA players, butthere's no disrespect to him, I
just don't give a fuck.
You know what I'm saying.
I love the game of basketball,I love the NBA.
You know what I'm saying.
But if you ain't on my fantasyteam, I'm not playing 2K.
I'm not putting no money on you.
I barely know you.
(48:29):
Okay, but trigger, don't begetting into that.
And I looked up and theygrabbing each other's jersey and
then they yank each otheraround and Clay Jersey is ripped
but Rudy Gopar runs up behindClay.
Rudy Gopar is like seven footruns up behind Clay Grabbing him
(48:53):
.
You know J McDaniels, off tothe side, look like it's about
to ease up.
Cp threes in front of you knowwas talking to talk with the
trigger, trying to get in thereand break it up.
And if Ruby go bear comes in,grabs him behind, you know,
saying they don't do that shitin prison, I'm just playing.
But he goes up, grabs him upbehind and then Draymond
(49:15):
Draymond got like a light job.
I think if you keep Draymond'slight jogging just to try to get
in there and to check on histeammate and pick up speed and I
mean hit the guy and granted,when you look at Dre, draymond's
actually really fucking fastfor the position he plays and
(49:36):
the age that he's at anddisrespecting him.
Right, he's fast and he justkind of, and all of a sudden
he's seen Rudy go bear grabtrigger and he just put him.
He put him in a headlock.
Now the memes for this shit isfantastic.
I see the Joe Rogan talk abouthe's going to get the joke.
(49:56):
The Joe Rogan was fantastic.
There's a lot of memes for this.
But let me tell you somethinghe didn't have him for real.
He didn't have him for real.
You ever have like brothers andyou have your brother around the
neck and maybe he you know Sam,oh, maybe he had just unplugged
(50:17):
your, your, your gaming systemwhile you playing, because you
know you can't save shit forback of the day.
You playing Sega, you playingNintendo, super Nintendo,
dreamcast there's no, the gameautomatically saving you either
had to get to a point or youjust it just didn't save, you
turn it off.
You turn it off.
You had to start from thebeginning.
So maybe your brother unpluggedit.
(50:38):

Whatever was happening with Claycould have been getting his

where he was at almost to thebench, I said I said yikes, he
didn't let him go quick enough.

when you got a strong enoughgrab around your back, you bent.
You bent weird, and he took himtoo far of a distance.
You know what I'm saying.
You got your corner store, hetook him to the corner store and
you see Dremon's face.
You see everybody like thisdude, go kill this dude, what he
(53:58):
didn't really happen like that,because you can see the go bear
, go bear lights, get here tohave him.
He'd have been turning red toblue.
Go bear did look like he wantedto call the manager, he wanted
to call the police.
I am ready to press charges.
He needs to be put down.
He is a rabbit dog.
But if go bear never runs andtouches Clay Thompson Dremon
(54:24):
Green never does any of that andthen they do everybody out of
the.
They do.
They do Clay Thompson totrigger out the game.
They do Jade McDaniels out thegame, and you know, you know and
they even.
The crazy thing is they wentfar enough to talk about the
(54:48):
flagrant to for Dremon.
That's how you knew.
I said, oh yeah, he about tosauce him up because they just
talked about ejection withejection with trigger.
They talked about ejection withJade McDaniels, but they went
into detail.
Flagrant to you're out of there, right, and you just knew it.
(55:09):
Motherfuckers is calling for 10, 10 game suspension.

In a sport or in real life, myGod, you want your teammates to
have your back.

(55:29):
You in a squabble, you in thetussle, you in a one on one
batch match and somebodyrandomly come grab you and
somebody able to hit you or kickyou or whatever.

You know I'm saying you're the,you're the.
He's the black man who you knowkeeps showing up in front of
(56:14):

This is easy.
Slams the gavel and there yougo, you off.
(56:35):

hang him on.

I'm so tired of them notlooking at others.
Go, bear is able to stay in thegame.

off the court, but on the court,as a Golden State warrior, this
dude is a warrior.
I don't care, he don't care.
He going to let the rest haveit.
(57:40):
Dude is smart and I thinkthat's why he's able to talk for
so long.
That's why he's able to bitchfor so long, because he's
extremely intelligent when itcomes to the game of basketball.
It's not the rookie, it's notthe four years, not the five
years, not, it's somebody who'sa veteran and he's shown extreme
intelligence.
That's why he's able to talkand talk the way he talks to the

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
