time I see it, but the one kissis all it takes.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
The TikTok dance.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
It was crazy At first .
I seen it and I was just likewhat is happening?
But it's just so funny.
So I did further research onthis and it was crazy was there,
was this guy that I kept seeing, that kept blowing up.
His name is speed.

He used to be in like a click of.
He used to be like a click andpause.
Okay, yeah, he part of impulse,um, and speed has nothing to do
with that, but he's just like astreamer.
Basically, to my knowledge.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
yeah, I don't think he's on that post.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Okay, let me ask you this.
You know this is him on thememe, the trend thing.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I don't know if he's not on every one of them.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
No, this one kid, did you know that was him.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
No, I didn't know it was his yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Apparently that was him, Apparently he apparently
that was him and apparently hewas playing just dance.
And he got so upset that hekicked his camera and I didn't
even realize, because I justwatched the video and I was like
, oh, he kicked it down.
Oh no, yeah, I haven't seen that.
I didn't know it was his likevideo.
That was him.
I was like because I keepseeing him like getting into
other things that had nothing todo with this trend.
(03:41):
But I'm like, what is he famousfor?
But I feel like, for the mostpart, I feel like that's why
he's a streamer.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
He just streamers are just famous for being famous.
Yeah, it's like the kardashianof hobbies, yeah, basically.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
So, yeah, the one kiss is all it takes, so that's
that's what I'm nominating forthe tnt podcast all the time.
One kiss is all it takes.
But yeah, I'm gonna go with.
I'm gonna go with the game from2004 to 2008 because I feel
like he was untouchable.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Yeah, nah, that was special bro, that was special
Dang.
Let me think, yeah, that's atough one, that's a tough one.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Games run boy.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
That was something serious, bro.
I remember what it was like.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
But you know what's funny about it is it really
wasn't that I don't know.
He didn't really do that much.
I mean, okay, one thing I willsay he held the West down before
Kendrick and after Snoop.
I will say that.
But just looking back on it, hereally didn't do a lot but bro,
he made an impression on me.
I was very vulnerable.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Do you think that's because he got kicked out of
G-Unit?
Do you think that's because heleft like he got kicked out of
G-Unit?
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Do you think he really got kicked out of G-Unit
or do you think he?
Speaker 1 (04:46):
left.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I think it was just a situation where you got two
egos that's too big and theycan't coexist because they're
just always going to bump heads,and I was a part of that.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I was fuck 50, fuck.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Banks fuck.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Buck, fuck them all.
Like G you not, I was that kid.
I ain't never had none of theshirts though I really wanted to
get one, but I just never knewwhere to get one from.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
But I was definitely that kid that's one was serious
man, that's one.
I remember I still got that.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
And if I could find it, bro, I would really buy that
the Stop Snitching, Stop Lying.

minute.

He was a skateboarder at thetime.
I was more confused on why hepicked that name, like you were,

Whatever it was, that's mynominee for the TNT Podcast Hall
of Fame.
Is truck fit?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I guess we'll keep it in the spirit of Kaz.
I go with Sir Lucius Lefkowitz.
You know, big boy, I don't know.
I always consider big boys realdebut, not speaker box.
I always be feeling like SirLucius Lefkowitz.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
That's the Sh shutter bug, right, yes, the general
general pattern Hard.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
I just felt like he was snapping on the battle.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
My nomination for the TNT podcast is LA Reid's part
in Maybach Music.
This so, for the people thatdon't know, I don't know why,
well, I kind of know why, but Idon't know why.
But for some reason, la Reid'spart in Maybach Music.
(09:38):
Okay, let me rewind a littlebit, because some of y'all don't
even know what the fuck I'mtalking about.
So there's an artist named RickRoss.
He came out with an albumcalled God Forgives and wait, is
it God Forgives and I Don't?
Yeah, God Forgives and I Don't.
And he has a song on therecalled.
Well, he has a song on therewhich is a series of songs
(09:59):
called Maybach Music, but thishappened to be number four and
for some reason I never thoughtabout this because I kind of
just I was like, oh, this is LAReid, cool.
But apparently, for some reason, la Reid's part in Maybach
Music 4 completely weirds out DJTanaka.
(10:20):
So, tanaka, would you like toexplain to some of the folks who
LA Reid is?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
LA Reid was a part of a group back in the day like
the 80s.
What's the name of that song,man?
I can't remember the name of it.
He was part of our B group,though, turnabout, I actually
(10:50):
think.
You know the record, but Ican't even remember the name of
his group.
So, but it was in like theearly mid-80s that they came out
.
They had this hit single.
He eventually became like aMoving over to management and
all that and became like hitsingle.
He eventually became a moodover management and all that and
became head of a label.
(11:13):
So LA Reid felt that he shouldmake an appearance on Rick Ross'
record.
From one boss to another.
It's LA Reid.
From one boss to another.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
You know it's a big movie, I'm going to pick a movie
.
I'm going to pick a movie clip.
My nomination for the TNTPodcast Hall of Fame is when
Ricky gets killed in Boys in theHood.
What's interesting about thisis that I remember actually
(11:50):
seeing that movie.
Not obviously not when it cameout, because I think I was like
a baby when that movie came out,but um and yeah, I ain't gonna
lie, that definitely was likeone of the sadder parts of that
movie.
I was like whoa, like that,like then he had his whole life
ahead of him.
It was over in a flash.
It's just interesting.
Hip-hop has so many referencesto the Boys in the Hood and the
(12:14):
Ricky the Ricky, the Ricky joint.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
It's so funny because my mom saw Boys in the Hood and
that's like her like, that'slike her interpretation of like
Black people.
Yeah, they're just likegangster rap and just all of
that.
You know what I'm saying.
And, um, she like gets reallyemotional bringing that up.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
The the Ricky, the Ricky part.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
She's like, she's like man, he, he's just uh, he's
just such a good kid and justhad so much, so much ahead of
him, and for him to just getgunned down in the hood like
that, you know, it's just, oh,it's just so sad.
Yeah, she's not wrong.
Yeah, you know, and it's like,um, but like she even feels for
dough boy you know what I'msaying she's like um, but like
(13:07):
she even feels for dough boy,you know what I'm saying.
She's like, you know, poor doughboy.
He just, he just wanted to feellove from his mom, you know,
and he couldn't get that love,you know.
Right so anyway, I say I wouldsay that she really enjoys that.
Well, I don't know if sheenjoyed it, but she empathizes,
she felt for it, she felt for it, right.
(13:31):
I feel like that's also part ofthe reason why she, you know,
rocks with all the music that Ilisten to.
Oh really, you know, I kind ofput her on to all this, you know
.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
All this hood rap music and uh yeah Right, Fable's
dance moves oh.
God, why?
Okay, so why?
Why are we nominating Fable'sdance moves?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Bro man Fable, you know, y'all know that out of D4L
Fabo, you know he's theentertainer, bro, you know the
dance was going crazy.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
I really would have thought he would have made
something out of himself.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
I'm trying to tell you.
You know what I'm saying,because he had a lot of
personality, remember.
We just like how we be great inthe Riders.
You know what I'm saying.
Like the rappers, you don'thave to be necessarily the most
lyrical person.
You know what I'm saying Favopersonality off the chain, off
the charts, and then he had themhooks and stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Right, Not to mention the fucking long socks and the
fucking.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Yeah, the whole outfit.
Yeah, the shades.
You know what I'm saying.
All that.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Just out of curiosity .
I know you've been tired of us,but Fabo are you familiar with
Fabo?
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Fabo.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Not in the slightest.
Speaker 1 (14:48):

them got fancy Like.
Oh, that was me, I was, yeah,you got paws, yeah, that shit.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
I'ma go with Snoop Dogg, dmx Versus, but only well,
just my nomination is theportion at the end in which they
(16:43):
were just freestyling.
In which they were justfreestyling, thundercat was
DJing and he was cutting upcrazy just with like the
breakbeat and all that.
And then just, you know, justclassic freestyling, like how

And it was just dope to seelike snoop and dmx, you know,

You know, and um, and I don'tknow, it was just good to see
dmx in like a good light, youknow, because I know he didn't
have a lot of issues and youknow different situations.
(17:26):
But to see him like justgenuinely enjoying himself and
having fun, you know, I wouldspeak on like everybody kid at
heart, you know, so the littlekid was coming out of him, you

don't know, after he had gotwait, wait, did he get out of
jail or get out of prison orsomething?
Yeah, the last few years.
I feel like them.
Last few years were good to himyeah, definitely he was
definitely more happy doinginterviews and you know just the
verses, just everywhere andhell, even when he said people
(18:03):
don't like to talk about deathyeah like so, like when he went
on drink champs and was like Icould die today and everybody's
like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,whoa, whoa.
He was like no, for real, if I,if I die today, I could say that
I'm happy yeah, yeah so so that, yeah shout out to x along with

I don't think I've ever, I'venever seen that versus, but I
need to, I need to check thatversus out.
But, um, my nominee for the tntpodcast hall of fame is the
easy jerry curls.
Like it's the fact that brogangsters real gangsters used to
wear that hairstyle, likeniggas used to walk around with

sticks, do you know?
Speaker 1 (18:45):
jerry curls.
Do you know what the so what?
What is the process to make thehair?
Oh, dude, you're asking thewrong one.
I have no idea, because theonly thing I know about a jerry
curl is like whenever somebodydap them up, they have to be
like and wipe that shit offtheir face.
I guess Is it From the jerrycurl From the curl oils or
something.
I don't know, that From the curloils or something I don't know.
(19:08):
That's why I was just wonderingwhat exactly is put into the
hair or whatever.

I mean shit by the time we were born?
I don't think, jerry.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Curls was born.
That was like an 80s thing, Ifeel like that was like early to
mid-90s.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
I feel like by the end of the 90s niggas wasn't
wearing jerry curls.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
But I could be wrong.
When did you say late 80s?
Oh, when it started.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Yeah, oh, I would say 80s, just 80s period.
Yeah, I feel like Michael hadsome jerry curls at some point,
but I could be wrong.
I don't know.
I don't know, that's just suchan interesting hairstyle.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
That's the swag man.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Isn't that what they were talking about on Coming to
America?
Speaker 3 (19:54):
The just let you.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I'm not even going to try to hit that note, but isn't
that the hairstyle?

NWA.
(20:50):

That's funny.
Hey, man, that's a swag rightthere.
Man, yeah, I guess, as you callit, nominate Seafood, man
Seafood okay.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Why are we nominating seafood?
Speaker 1 (21:10):
For those that don't know, tanaka was not sure if he
could eat seafood because bothmy parents they was allergic to
it.
So growing up I never had itfor real and so because of that
I never knew if I was allergic.
And I have recently discoveredthis world of seafood, and it
(21:32):
has been quite the journey, Ihave to say.
I've been pleasantly intriguedby these different types of
seafood the seafood boil, theterminology of cluster.
The seafood boil, the uhterminology of cluster.
(21:54):
Um, yeah, I had no idea whatthat meant, you know.
They said knock how manyclusters you want.
I said what are you talkingabout?
And uh, they're like oh, so nowyou like dead ass.
Like I said, bro, I, I don'tknow nothing.
I know nothing about that.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
How long ago was this ?
If you could say.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
I would say this is maybe a month or two ago, gotcha
you know.
So I finally discovered I couldeat it and you know it's been
cool.
You know learning about it andeating all these different you
know crab legs and shrimp andtrying these seafood boils and
(22:35):
fighting these cravings becauseI'm like damn, that's really
fire.
But I've also learned seafoodis not exactly the most you know
affordable thing, so definitelygotta save your coins to enjoy
that.
But yeah, shout out to Seafood,shellfish and all that good
(22:57):
stuff.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Look forward to continuing this journey that it
the entire Drake era from nowuntil, not like this, until the
lawsuit era.
I don't know if he'll come backfrom the lawsuit, so let's just
(23:25):
go ahead and give him hisflowers now.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
So what so that's like 2007 to like 2024?
.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Yeah, or like 2009?
.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
He doesn't even know what's going on.
It's fine.
He doesn't know, it's fine.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
I just feel like his era might be over, so let's go
ahead and put him in the Hall ofFame.
Tnt Hall of Fame Rock and RollHall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (23:54):

It's cool, we hear you, bro,you can sit right there.
If you don't want to, you ain'tgot to.
Does he want to?
He doesn't know what's going on.
No, he's doing that becauseyou're making him do it.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Just for the record, Kendrick didn't kill his career.
Yes, he did, he did not.
I'm still bumping Drake overKendrick.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Oh, I mean absolutely .
But that's the thing thatpeople need to understand.
When we say that he got beat byKendrick, we're not saying that
Kendrick is going to replacehim.

And we thank y'all For listening to the TNT.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
I'm gonna go with, I'm gonna actually go With a
concert tour that happened backin, like, I want to say like,
maybe like 99, 2000, I want tosay I want to say it came out in
like 2000 ish, oh yeah.
So, according to wikipedia,this is uh, the.
(27:38):
This was a.
This was a tour that was goingaround that was in the 2000s
from like, from like june toaugust, and, um, this was a tour
with ice cube, dr dre, snoop,dogg, em Eminem and they were
basically going off of theChronic 2001 album, the Marshall
(28:02):
Mathers LP, no Limit, top Dogand basically all their more
recent shits.
And they threw some old hits inthere, but for the most part
they were doing like all theirmore recent shit because all of
them were very relevant at thetime, right.
So from what I remember becauseI actually seen this, I've
(28:26):
actually seen this joint manytimes Ice Cube started it off,
and then, I believe I believe DrDre, I believe it was Dr Dre
and Snoop Dogg, and then, andthen who else?
And then I think I want to sayit was Eminem, but I don't know
(28:46):
Some.
It was some along those lines.
But long story short, for thepeople that don't know, this was
called the Up Is Smoke Tour.
So that is my nominee for Hallof Fame.
Tnt Podcast Hall of Fame what'scalled the uppest smoke tour.
So that is my nominee for uhhall of fame.
Tnt podcast hall of fame.
Um, if you're a fan of oldschool, early 90s, mid 90s,
early 2000s hip-hop music, this,this, this concert's for you,
(29:10):
with the weed smoke and the, youknow I'm saying the goddamn all
the classic bangers.
And not to mention, it has thatfamous, that famous scene of
Dove C hitting the crip walk.
That is from that concert.
Definitely, this is definitelya classic tour which had
(29:34):
featured artists D12, mc Wren,west Side Connection, the East
Siders, devin the dude, warren GExhibit and, of course and then
of course, me personally, myfavorite, my favorite song off
of Eminem's album that was themost recent at the time he did,
(29:56):
marshall M mathers love thatsong.
Let me ask you this have youever heard the song um?
Have you ever heard the?
Speaker 1 (30:03):
song before I'm trying to think man, uh, you
said it was off the eminemmarshall mathers.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
This is the singles with uh, the way I am real slim,
shady um kill you yeah, I knowthat that's classic m?
Speaker 1 (30:18):
um, I didn't really get into eminem until like a
little bit later, like I mean, Ifeel like eminem show was kind
of more.
So my introduction, um, I feellike I have heard the martial
matters lp, um I don't.
Eminem is like interesting forme because like he has a moment
he's like a dope rapper.
(30:39):
I just can't.
I didn't fully get into him,though I think it's like a
little too weird.
Yeah, it was just a little, buthere's the thing, though, is
that I used to bump his likegreatest hits joint, like all
the time, you know I'm saying,and then, like my homie from
Seattle, like he, he's like ahuge Eminem fan, like fanatic,
like to this day will be like yo, bro, did you hear that new
(31:03):
Eminem album?
And I just, I don't know, bro,it's, it's hard.
I'm not gonna lie, it's hardfor me to listen to Eminem
nowadays, and why is that?
I don't know what it is.
It's, um, like I I don't feellike he's like I don't know what
it is.
It's like there's like a lackof lack of like.
(31:24):
I feel like he's going I justfeel like he'd be going through
the motions.
You know what I'm saying.
It's like just rhyming a wholebunch of words, like I don't
know.
Um, it's interesting because Iwas.
I was playing a record for afriend in which m was featured
on.
I think it was off the naz, Iwant to say the naz album.
(31:45):
Uh, it's like naz epmd andeminem.
They was on all on the recordtogether and eminem had his
verse.
He was killing it right, doinghis thing.
And then bro, like like ifthere's a section there, like if
he had cut it off there, like Iwould have been straight, like
solid feature.
But he kept going, bro, and itwas like on some weird like.
(32:08):
Then he changed the flow againand it was just like, bro, this
is so unnecessary, like I didn'teven want to hear all that.
You know what I mean and so Idon't know, bro.
And as far as his albums, likeit's like hitting myths with me.
As far as his newer stuff, likesome of the records are
straight, but a lot of them likethey just don't hit like that
(32:29):
for real, right no, so so let meask you this how do you, um,
how are you, how are you uh,with, uh, any of the other three
artists?
Speaker 2 (32:37):
well, I'll say the other three artists, because
there are other artists and theup then smoke tour, but he said
so I'll just start with cube.
How you do you ever, do you,listen to cube?
Speaker 1 (32:48):
or, yeah, cube got a handful of records.
I don't know if I've reallyheard albums from cube, though,
you know, I just really know hissingles for real, which is
ironic that I actually played uhright, go to go to church right
, yeah, that that's gonnabrought me back because I
remember that video andeverything, bro, and that was
one of my favorite like cubework.
I remember that album, the um.
(33:10):
I can't remember the title ofit, I'll talk I could picture it
.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
oh, um, was it terrorist threats?
No, no, no, that was West sideconnection.
That was um, was it?
Speaker 1 (33:21):
laugh now, cry later.
It was definitely laugh now,cry later, cause they don't have
.
Why we thugs?
Right, yeah, yeah, I rememberbumping that.
Yeah, yes, I know cute singles.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I don't necessarily know his albums like that for
real.
You know what I'm saying.
Yeah, so on his joints, uh, he,yeah, he basically did a lot of
his uh.
I mean he just did his mainsingles and then he did a couple
songs from uh, I mean from now,from uh his older joints like
uh, america's most wanted, okay,this is after nwa right and
then he did his song with uh mcrand.
(33:58):
I don't know if you're familiarwith this song, but this is a
song he used to play hell likeso much on the radio.
A song he had with him and drehim, dre and mc rand called uh,
hello you remember that song Istarted this gangster shit.
That's the motherfucking thing,bro.
They used to play that song somuch, but I used to fuck with
that song.
You can do it.
We be clubbing.
(34:18):
You know shit like that, right.
And then.
And then Eminem did a lot ofhis shit from um from the
Marshall Mathers LP, right.
And uh.
Then of course, dr Dre andSnoop Dogg took over from there
and started doing, uh, you knowNext Episode, you know Snoop
Dogg, right.
And then they did a coupletributes One for Eazy-E, one for
(34:39):
Big Pun, one for Roger Troutman, one for Biggie, a couple for
Tupac, and then Dre starteddoing a couple songs from off
the 2001 album.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Yeah, yeah, man, it's just a cool West Coast, just
aftermath, just feel and like toall those guests that you said,
man, that's like classic westcoast tour right there let me
ask you this have you ever seenthis tour before?
Speaker 2 (35:07):
nah, we gotta watch it, yeah we gonna.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
We definitely fuck the bullshit yeah we're gonna
watch it that's classic.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
I don't know where we gonna, if I gotta pay for it on
this smart TV, we gonna findout.
But up in smoke tour.
If you're into West Coast vibe,eminem-ish Aftermath type deal,
I would highly recommend youwatch it.
It's a classic, classic,classic, classic tour.
Essential man definitely,definitely, recommend y'all
(35:37):
listen that.
And uh, yeah, it's my nominationfor the tnt hall of fame.
Well, my nomination forinductee into the tnt hall of
fame is um jesus flow from 2005,2006.
The reason why I picked thisright is that was definitely a
(35:58):
moment of time that we willnever get back, ever, because
anybody that does that flow nowsounds goofy, really goofy, and
it sounds really bad and itmesses up the song completely.
But I don't know how jeezy wasable to get away with that.
But, bro, when he, when hehopped on a song like that, like
(36:21):
it was, like it was, it wasokay for him to do it bottom of
the map, bottom of the map,right, like he was bouncing john
jesus from the bottom of themap, gotta fit the round club,
like he was.
But like then he was strappedup, iced out, nigga play lights
(36:42):
out quarter minute.
Like bro, nobody else could dosomething like that.
The red dolls tripping in justsnitching, like, for example,
boosie tried that on that.
It ain't my Fault song.
Terrible Hate that.
I hate his part.
It ain't my motherfucking fault.
(37:03):
Like you sound goofy, like yousound really goofy.
For my nomination I'm pickingJeezy's 2005-2006 flow.
Now, correct me if I'm wrong.
I feel like that was the onlytime he really used that flow.
After that he started kind oflike rapping on not necessarily
(37:24):
rapping on beat, but like itwasn't like necessarily like a
conversation flow, like thatkind of sounds like a
conversational type flow that islike slow and you can
understand what he's saying andyou know.
Like.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Like after a while he just started rapping like for
real, yeah, no, that, uh, Idefinitely agree with you on
that.
I feel like, um, there's a,there's a significant difference
between that jay-z and, likeyou know, uh, recession on,
recession on, like literallythat yeah, like them two albums
right like inspiration and thugmotivation 101 like that was a
(38:03):
moment in time and part of it,that I think, um, like part of
the reason, I think that jay-z,you know, was a little more like
the flow, was like, just so,you know, unmatched was that?
Um, it was a lot looser, youknow what I mean like he was
just kind of like it was it madeit was weird because it was
(38:25):
simplistic, but it was almostlike catchy in the fact that it
was like call and response.
You know, because it's like you, like it was simple, the bars
you know what I'm saying butjust the way that it was loose
and the way that he delivered it, like I don't know, it was just
so engaging, you know I justfeel like for our generation.
(38:45):
When we first heard jeezy and hewas rapping like that, it was
just like damn bro, like I don'tknow what it is like he's
spitting that real.
And then it's like I don't knowthe flow, just hella catchy and
they got that bounce and themusic sounds good.
You know what I mean.
So, yeah, I just feel that,yeah, when ju, when jay-z had
(39:08):
that loose flow like he had iton um, on gucci man's icy, you
know, when he had the guestverse on there um 10 bro.
05 05 06 bro like I think backto even get throw with bun b.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
You know what I mean exactly we was and, as a matter
of fact, it's funny, we waslistening to all the way home
that I'm straight, right, ohyeah, that I'm straight, you
know it's funny and I thinkaround that time and his
features he used to always startsnowman bitch mr 17, 5, it was
always snowman bitch, he alwaysstarted songs like that.
(39:48):
Thanks you already knew, youalready knew.
Every time he started off withthat it was it was going to be
some heat coming after thatironically mr snowman, snowman,
he got some heat coming.
That's funny it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
No, I definitely respect that, definitely respect
that.
Um, wow, that's a, that's ahell of a nomination I gotta say
Outro Music.
Yeah, I'm going to nominate Jar Jar Binks.
His interview set up at theRevolt Summit, wow, yeah, so
just the the front.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
So wait that joint that Gucci was.
Was it Gucci man?
I think I saw Gucci talkingthat or something that said
Revolt.
It was like blue or something.
Oh no, it was the interviewroom was like blue or something.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Oh no, it was the interview room.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
That wasn't the interview room.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
No, no, they did like the whole summit and all that
was going on, and then theywould have like an interview
space you know what I'm sayingwhen they would bring in
different artists and they woulddo just a short little
interview in which they askquestions about like what Revolt
(01:10):
you know what the summit meansand like talking about music and
all that, just a little briefinterview and so yeah, but he
designed like the whole set forthat joint.
Shout out to Ja, yeah, so thatwas yeah, definitely, shout out
to Jah, yeah, definitely, thatwas big time.
Yeah, man, I'm proud of my dude.

It's old now because you know,you know tiktok, social media
trends kind of go really quickly, right, but um, it's something,
(02:05):
something I've seen on TikTokand it just makes me laugh every
time I see it, but the one kissis all it takes.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
The TikTok dance.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
It was crazy At first .
I seen it and I was just likewhat is happening?
But it's just so funny.
So I did further research onthis and it was crazy was there,
was this guy that I kept seeing, that kept blowing up.
His name is speed.
I show speed, so can you tellme a little bit about this speed
, speed is a streamer.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, youtuber and streamer so he's like the kai
guy, yeah, he him and kai havedone the same thing oh wait, are
they like?
Speaker 1 (02:45):
no, they're not.
They're not like in a.
I don't think they're in agroup, okay, unless I remember
kai was in a group because mylittle brother shout out jayden
he tells me about, like kai hethere.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
He used to be in like a click of.
He used to be like a click andpause.
Okay, yeah, he part of impulse,um, and speed has nothing to do
with that, but he's just like astreamer.
Basically, to my knowledge.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
yeah, I don't think he's on that post.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Okay, let me ask you this.
You know this is him on thememe, the trend thing.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I don't know if he's not on every one of them.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
No, this one kid, did you know that was him.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
No, I didn't know it was his yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Apparently that was him, Apparently he apparently
that was him and apparently hewas playing just dance.
And he got so upset that hekicked his camera and I didn't
even realize, because I justwatched the video and I was like
, oh, he kicked it down.
Oh no, yeah, I haven't seen that.
I didn't know it was his likevideo.
That was him.
I was like because I keepseeing him like getting into
other things that had nothing todo with this trend.
(03:41):
But I'm like, what is he famousfor?
But I feel like, for the mostpart, I feel like that's why
he's a streamer.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
He just streamers are just famous for being famous.
Yeah, it's like the kardashianof hobbies, yeah, basically.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
So, yeah, the one kiss is all it takes, so that's
that's what I'm nominating forthe tnt podcast all the time.
One kiss is all it takes.
But yeah, I'm gonna go with.
I'm gonna go with the game from2004 to 2008 because I feel
like he was untouchable.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Yeah, nah, that was special bro, that was special
Dang.
Let me think, yeah, that's atough one, that's a tough one.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Games run boy.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
That was something serious, bro.
I remember what it was like.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
But you know what's funny about it is it really
wasn't that I don't know.
He didn't really do that much.
I mean, okay, one thing I willsay he held the West down before
Kendrick and after Snoop.
I will say that.
But just looking back on it, hereally didn't do a lot but bro,
he made an impression on me.
I was very vulnerable.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Do you think that's because he got kicked out of
G-Unit?
Do you think that's because heleft like he got kicked out of
G-Unit?
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Do you think he really got kicked out of G-Unit
or do you think he?
Speaker 1 (04:46):
left.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I think it was just a situation where you got two
egos that's too big and theycan't coexist because they're
just always going to bump heads,and I was a part of that.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I was fuck 50, fuck.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Banks fuck.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Buck, fuck them all.
Like G you not, I was that kid.
I ain't never had none of theshirts though I really wanted to
get one, but I just never knewwhere to get one from.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
But I was definitely that kid that's one was serious
man, that's one.
I remember I still got that.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
And if I could find it, bro, I would really buy that
the Stop Snitching, Stop Lying.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
documentary he had had, bro.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
He really had me fooled, bro.

tapes, bro, where they just theyhad those little yeah, they
were selling at the gas stationyeah, and they had like the

And he has a song on therecalled.
Well, he has a song on therewhich is a series of songs
(09:59):
called Maybach Music, but thishappened to be number four and
for some reason I never thoughtabout this because I kind of
just I was like, oh, this is LAReid, cool.
But apparently, for some reason, la Reid's part in Maybach
Music 4 completely weirds out DJTanaka.
(10:20):
So, tanaka, would you like toexplain to some of the folks who
LA Reid is?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
LA Reid was a part of a group back in the day like
the 80s.
What's the name of that song,man?
I can't remember the name of it.
He was part of our B group,though, turnabout, I actually
(10:50):
think.
You know the record, but Ican't even remember the name of
his group.
So, but it was in like theearly mid-80s that they came out
.
They had this hit single.
He eventually became like aMoving over to management and
all that and became like hitsingle.
He eventually became a moodover management and all that and
became head of a label.
(11:13):
So LA Reid felt that he shouldmake an appearance on Rick Ross'
record.
From one boss to another.
It's LA Reid.
From one boss to another.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
You know it's a big movie, I'm going to pick a movie
.
I'm going to pick a movie clip.
My nomination for the TNTPodcast Hall of Fame is when
Ricky gets killed in Boys in theHood.
What's interesting about thisis that I remember actually
(11:50):
seeing that movie.
Not obviously not when it cameout, because I think I was like
a baby when that movie came out,but um and yeah, I ain't gonna
lie, that definitely was likeone of the sadder parts of that
movie.
I was like whoa, like that,like then he had his whole life
ahead of him.
It was over in a flash.
It's just interesting.
Hip-hop has so many referencesto the Boys in the Hood and the
(12:14):
Ricky the Ricky, the Ricky joint.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
It's so funny because my mom saw Boys in the Hood and
that's like her like, that'slike her interpretation of like
Black people.
Yeah, they're just likegangster rap and just all of
that.
You know what I'm saying.
And, um, she like gets reallyemotional bringing that up.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
The the Ricky, the Ricky part.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
She's like, she's like man, he, he's just uh, he's
just such a good kid and justhad so much, so much ahead of
him, and for him to just getgunned down in the hood like
that, you know, it's just, oh,it's just so sad.
Yeah, she's not wrong.
Yeah, you know, and it's like,um, but like she even feels for
dough boy you know what I'msaying she's like um, but like
(13:07):
she even feels for dough boy,you know what I'm saying.
She's like, you know, poor doughboy.
He just, he just wanted to feellove from his mom, you know,
and he couldn't get that love,you know.
Right so anyway, I say I wouldsay that she really enjoys that.
Well, I don't know if sheenjoyed it, but she empathizes,
she felt for it, she felt for it, right.
(13:31):
I feel like that's also part ofthe reason why she, you know,
rocks with all the music that Ilisten to.
Oh really, you know, I kind ofput her on to all this, you know
.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
All this hood rap music and uh yeah Right, Fable's
dance moves oh.
God, why?
Okay, so why?
Why are we nominating Fable'sdance moves?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Bro man Fable, you know, y'all know that out of D4L
Fabo, you know he's theentertainer, bro, you know the
dance was going crazy.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
I really would have thought he would have made
something out of himself.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
I'm trying to tell you.
You know what I'm saying,because he had a lot of
personality, remember.
We just like how we be great inthe Riders.
You know what I'm saying.
Like the rappers, you don'thave to be necessarily the most
lyrical person.
You know what I'm saying Favopersonality off the chain, off
the charts, and then he had themhooks and stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Right, Not to mention the fucking long socks and the
fucking.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Yeah, the whole outfit.

I'ma go with Snoop Dogg, dmx Versus, but only well,

(16:43):
were just freestyling.
In which they were justfreestyling, thundercat was
DJing and he was cutting upcrazy just with like the
breakbeat and all that.
And then just, you know, justclassic freestyling, like how
you know you and your friendswould do it, just like saying

whatever, but just still rhymingand flowing and all that.
And it was just dope to seelike snoop and dmx, you know,
just having fun and just goingback and forth.
You know, and um, and I don'tknow, it was just good to see
dmx in like a good light, youknow, because I know he didn't
have a lot of issues and youknow different situations.
(17:26):
But to see him like justgenuinely enjoying himself and
having fun, you know, I wouldspeak on like everybody kid at
heart, you know, so the littlekid was coming out of him, you

I will say this In the last when I say couple, I
don't know, after he had gotwait, wait, did he get out of
jail or get out of prison orsomething?
Yeah, the last few years.
I feel like them.
Last few years were good to himyeah, definitely he was
definitely more happy doinginterviews and you know just the
verses, just everywhere andhell, even when he said people
(18:03):
don't like to talk about deathyeah like so, like when he went
on drink champs and was like Icould die today and everybody's
like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,whoa, whoa.
He was like no, for real, if I,if I die today, I could say that
I'm happy yeah, yeah so so that, yeah shout out to x along with

I don't think I've ever, I'venever seen that versus, but I
need to, I need to check thatversus out.
But, um, my nominee for the tntpodcast hall of fame is the
easy jerry curls.
Like it's the fact that brogangsters real gangsters used to
wear that hairstyle, likeniggas used to walk around with
(18:44):
sticks, do you know?
Speaker 1 (18:45):
jerry curls.
Do you know what the so what?
What is the process to make thehair?
Oh, dude, you're asking thewrong one.
I have no idea, because theonly thing I know about a jerry
curl is like whenever somebodydap them up, they have to be
like and wipe that shit offtheir face.
I guess Is it From the jerrycurl From the curl oils or
something.
I don't know, that From the curloils or something I don't know.
(19:08):
That's why I was just wonderingwhat exactly is put into the
hair or whatever.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
I mean shit by the time we were born?
I don't think, jerry.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Curls was born.
That was like an 80s thing, Ifeel like that was like early to
mid-90s.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
I feel like by the end of the 90s niggas wasn't
wearing jerry curls.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
But I could be wrong.
When did you say late 80s?
Oh, when it started.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Yeah, oh, I would say 80s, just 80s period.
Yeah, I feel like Michael hadsome jerry curls at some point,
but I could be wrong.
I don't know.
I don't know, that's just suchan interesting hairstyle.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
That's the swag man.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Isn't that what they were talking about on Coming to
America?
Speaker 3 (19:54):
The just let you.

I'm not even going to try to hit that note, but isn't
that the hairstyle?

Man, yeah, I guess, as you callit, nominate Seafood, man
Seafood okay.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Why are we nominating seafood?
Speaker 1 (21:10):
For those that don't know, tanaka was not sure if he
could eat seafood because bothmy parents they was allergic to
it.
So growing up I never had itfor real and so because of that
I never knew if I was allergic.
And I have recently discoveredthis world of seafood, and it
(21:32):
has been quite the journey, Ihave to say.
I've been pleasantly intriguedby these different types of
seafood the seafood boil, theterminology of cluster.
The seafood boil, the uhterminology of cluster.
(21:54):
Um, yeah, I had no idea whatthat meant, you know.
They said knock how manyclusters you want.
I said what are you talkingabout?
And uh, they're like oh, so nowyou like dead ass.

cool.
You know learning about it andeating all these different you
know crab legs and shrimp andtrying these seafood boils and
(22:35):
fighting these cravings becauseI'm like damn, that's really
fire.

affordable thing, so definitelygotta save your coins to enjoy
that.

And we thank y'all For listening to the TNT.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
I'm gonna go with, I'm gonna actually go With a
concert tour that happened backin, like, I want to say like,
maybe like 99, 2000, I want tosay I want to say it came out in
like 2000 ish, oh yeah.
So, according to wikipedia,this is uh, the.
(27:38):
This was a.
This was a tour that was goingaround that was in the 2000s
from like, from like june toaugust, and, um, this was a tour
with ice cube, dr dre, snoop,dogg, em Eminem and they were
basically going off of theChronic 2001 album, the Marshall
(28:02):
Mathers LP, no Limit, top Dogand basically all their more
recent shits.
And they threw some old hits inthere, but for the most part
they were doing like all theirmore recent shit because all of
them were very relevant at thetime, right.
So from what I remember becauseI actually seen this, I've
(28:26):
actually seen this joint manytimes Ice Cube started it off,
and then, I believe I believe DrDre, I believe it was Dr Dre
and Snoop Dogg, and then, andthen who else?
And then I think I want to sayit was Eminem, but I don't know
(28:46):
Some.
It was some along those lines.
But long story short, for thepeople that don't know, this was
called the Up Is Smoke Tour.
So that is my nominee for Hallof Fame.
Tnt Podcast Hall of Fame what'scalled the uppest smoke tour.
So that is my nominee for uhhall of fame.
Tnt podcast hall of fame.
Um, if you're a fan of oldschool, early 90s, mid 90s,
early 2000s hip-hop music, this,this, this concert's for you,
(29:10):
with the weed smoke and the, youknow I'm saying the goddamn all
the classic bangers.
And not to mention, it has thatfamous, that famous scene of
Dove C hitting the crip walk.
That is from that concert.
Definitely, this is definitelya classic tour which had
(29:34):
featured artists D12, mc Wren,west Side Connection, the East
Siders, devin the dude, warren GExhibit and, of course and then
of course, me personally, myfavorite, my favorite song off
of Eminem's album that was themost recent at the time he did,
(29:56):
marshall M mathers love thatsong.
Let me ask you this have youever heard the song um?
Have you ever heard the?
Speaker 1 (30:03):
song before I'm trying to think man, uh, you
said it was off the eminemmarshall mathers.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
This is the singles with uh, the way I am real slim,
shady um kill you yeah, I knowthat that's classic m?
Speaker 1 (30:18):
um, I didn't really get into eminem until like a
little bit later, like I mean, Ifeel like eminem show was kind
of more.
So my introduction, um, I feellike I have heard the martial
matters lp, um I don't.
Eminem is like interesting forme because like he has a moment
he's like a dope rapper.
(30:39):
I just can't.
I didn't fully get into him,though I think it's like a
little too weird.
Yeah, it was just a little, buthere's the thing, though, is
that I used to bump his likegreatest hits joint, like all
the time, you know I'm saying,and then, like my homie from
Seattle, like he, he's like ahuge Eminem fan, like fanatic,
like to this day will be like yo, bro, did you hear that new
(31:03):
Eminem album?
And I just, I don't know, bro,it's, it's hard.
I'm not gonna lie, it's hardfor me to listen to Eminem
nowadays, and why is that?
I don't know what it is.
It's, um, like I I don't feellike he's like I don't know what
it is.
It's like there's like a lackof lack of like.
(31:24):
I feel like he's going I justfeel like he'd be going through
the motions.
You know what I'm saying.
It's like just rhyming a wholebunch of words, like I don't
know.
Um, it's interesting because Iwas.
I was playing a record for afriend in which m was featured
on.
I think it was off the naz, Iwant to say the naz album.
(31:45):
Uh, it's like naz epmd andeminem.
They was on all on the recordtogether and eminem had his
verse.
He was killing it right, doinghis thing.
And then bro, like like ifthere's a section there, like if
he had cut it off there, like Iwould have been straight, like
solid feature.
But he kept going, bro, and itwas like on some weird like.
(32:08):
Then he changed the flow againand it was just like, bro, this
is so unnecessary, like I didn'teven want to hear all that.
You know what I mean and so Idon't know, bro.
And as far as his albums, likeit's like hitting myths with me.
As far as his newer stuff, likesome of the records are
straight, but a lot of them likethey just don't hit like that
(32:29):
for real, right no, so so let meask you this how do you, um,
how are you, how are you uh,with, uh, any of the other three
artists?
Speaker 2 (32:37):
well, I'll say the other three artists, because
there are other artists and theup then smoke tour, but he said
so I'll just start with cube.
How you do you ever, do you,listen to cube?
Speaker 1 (32:48):
or, yeah, cube got a handful of records.
I don't know if I've reallyheard albums from cube, though,
you know, I just really know hissingles for real, which is
ironic that I actually played uhright, go to go to church right
, yeah, that that's gonnabrought me back because I
remember that video andeverything, bro, and that was
one of my favorite like cubework.
I remember that album, the um.
(33:10):
I can't remember the title ofit, I'll talk I could picture it
.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
oh, um, was it terrorist threats?
No, no, no, that was West sideconnection.
That was um, was it?
Speaker 1 (33:21):

Why we thugs?
Right, yeah, yeah, I rememberbumping that.
Yeah, yes, I know cute singles.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I don't necessarily know his albums like that for
real.
You know what I'm saying.
Yeah, so on his joints, uh, he,yeah, he basically did a lot of
his uh.
I mean he just did his mainsingles and then he did a couple
songs from uh, I mean from now,from uh his older joints like
uh, america's most wanted, okay,this is after nwa right and
then he did his song with uh mcrand.
(33:58):
I don't know if you're familiarwith this song, but this is a
song he used to play hell likeso much on the radio.
A song he had with him and drehim, dre and mc rand called uh,
hello you remember that song Istarted this gangster shit.

They used to play that song somuch, but I used to fuck with
that song.
You can do it.

(34:18):
You know shit like that, right.
And then.
And then Eminem did a lot ofhis shit from um from the
Marshall Mathers LP, right.

It's a classic, classic,classic, classic tour.
Essential man definitely,definitely, recommend y'all
(35:37):
listen that.
And uh, yeah, it's my nominationfor the tnt hall of fame.
Well, my nomination forinductee into the tnt hall of
fame is um jesus flow from 2005,2006.
The reason why I picked thisright is that was definitely a
(35:58):
moment of time that we willnever get back, ever, because
anybody that does that flow nowsounds goofy, really goofy, and
it sounds really bad and itmesses up the song completely.
But I don't know how jeezy wasable to get away with that.
But, bro, when he, when hehopped on a song like that, like
(36:21):
it was, like it was, it wasokay for him to do it bottom of
the map, bottom of the map,right, like he was bouncing john
jesus from the bottom of themap, gotta fit the round club,
like he was.
But like then he was strappedup, iced out, nigga play lights
(36:42):
out quarter minute.
Like bro, nobody else could dosomething like that.
The red dolls tripping in justsnitching, like, for example,
boosie tried that on that.
It ain't my Fault song.
Terrible Hate that.
I hate his part.
It ain't my motherfucking fault.
(37:03):
Like you sound goofy, like yousound really goofy.
For my nomination I'm pickingJeezy's 2005-2006 flow.
Now, correct me if I'm wrong.
I feel like that was the onlytime he really used that flow.
After that he started kind oflike rapping on not necessarily
(37:24):
rapping on beat, but like itwasn't like necessarily like a
conversation flow, like thatkind of sounds like a
conversational type flow that islike slow and you can
understand what he's saying andyou know.
Like.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Like after a while he just started rapping like for
real, yeah, no, that, uh, Idefinitely agree with you on
that.
I feel like, um, there's a,there's a significant difference
between that jay-z and, likeyou know, uh, recession on,
recession on, like literallythat yeah, like them two albums
right like inspiration and thugmotivation 101 like that was a
(38:03):
moment in time and part of it,that I think, um, like part of
the reason, I think that jay-z,you know, was a little more like
the flow, was like, just so,you know, unmatched was that?
Um, it was a lot looser, youknow what I mean like he was
just kind of like it was it madeit was weird because it was
(38:25):
simplistic, but it was almostlike catchy in the fact that it
was like call and response.
You know, because it's like you, like it was simple, the bars
you know what I'm saying butjust the way that it was loose
and the way that he delivered it, like I don't know, it was just
so engaging, you know I justfeel like for our generation.
(38:45):
When we first heard jeezy and hewas rapping like that, it was
just like damn bro, like I don'tknow what it is like he's
spitting that real.
And then it's like I don't knowthe flow, just hella catchy and
they got that bounce and themusic sounds good.
You know what I mean.
So, yeah, I just feel that,yeah, when ju, when jay-z had
(39:08):
that loose flow like he had iton um, on gucci man's icy, you
know, when he had the guestverse on there um 10 bro.
05 05 06 bro like I think backto even get throw with bun b.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
You know what I mean exactly we was and, as a matter
of fact, it's funny, we waslistening to all the way home
that I'm straight, right, ohyeah, that I'm straight, you
know it's funny and I thinkaround that time and his
features he used to always startsnowman bitch mr 17, 5, it was
always snowman bitch, he alwaysstarted songs like that.
(39:48):
Thanks you already knew, youalready knew.
Every time he started off withthat it was it was going to be
some heat coming after thatironically mr snowman, snowman,
he got some heat coming.
That's funny it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
No, I definitely respect that, definitely respect
that.
Um, wow, that's a, that's ahell of a nomination I gotta say
