Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, guys, here we are our last break of
the day on this Monday. It's been a good day.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Yeah, these are not my closing remarks, but what are they?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
I do want to say something about this beefing?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Oh yeah, Withers, the rappers, the R and B singer,
the comedians.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
I just look, man, why is it that it's always
us that's beefing.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I'm not getting into that.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
I'm not getting into no comedy beef because you then
took your little small mind itself and set down somewhere
and decided to make up a bunch of stories about
a bunch of people to talk about the position they in,
when clearly it's a position.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
You not in.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
And I'm just sitting there pre wondering what's the purpose
of it?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
It just serves no purpose. Man. Rap.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
I guess hip hop kind of has, you know, a
history of it, you know, beefing, rap battles and stuff
where it used to be just wholesome. Even now you
see on YouTube they have like some rap battles and stuff.
You know.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Wilding out, you know, I mean wilding out is.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
A fun way to do it, you know, a fun way,
you know, the disc and stuff. It's all done in
good nature and everything like that. I got a problem
none of that. But if when you take it too
far and it turns violent and it don't make no sense. No,
I don't care what you think of my joke or jokes.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
We're not finna fight about this chick. What are we
fighting about? Br br brother bru bro. We really not,
you know.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
And see, the beefing with comedy was very very simple
back in the day when comedy was comedy, and you
were out there touring and someone started doing your set
or your joke and that was the way you earned
a living, and you were currently on tour with that
(02:07):
same set of jokes, that would create a problem because
you know, you come into town after this person and
they done done your show, and now you're on stage
doing your show and people coming. I had it happened
to me at Max Famous Bar down in Daytona Beach.
I was on stage performing. It was a Thursday, Friday,
Saturday gig and I'm doing my show and the waitress
(02:31):
came up to me and said, that's just a shame
that you would do his whole act. He was just here,
And I said, whoa, And she told me the comedian's name,
and we was friends.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
So I called it. It was ain't no cell phones.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I got him call his house and finally he got
back to me a couple days later. I said, hey, man,
this lady said that I was doing your show. He said, man,
and you was here the week before, he said, Man,
my apologies was the opening act and the headliner didn't come,
and so they asked me the headline. I didn't have
(03:05):
enough time, so I did your show. Damn what just
like that, and he told me he did my show.
It was nothing I could do at that point, so
I said, hey, man, just do me one favor. Call
the club on it and tell the club on her
this is my set. Because they sitting up in here. Man,
thank it. I have stole your whole act because you
(03:26):
was just there the week before me as the opening act,
and you did so good with my set they let
you close the rest of the week.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
See even the end of it.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Now, back then it was a lot more detrimental because
that was the only way I was making a living.
But just bringing up stuff from the past of a
person did your joke, and then you're not really telling
the whole truth about it.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
That don't make no sense, man, that don't make no sense.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
And the sad thing about what it is, we're the
only ones who do it. We are the only rappers
that's beefing. We're the only singers that's beefing. Were the
only comedians as beef. I just don't understand it. Well,
we got to be careful, man, just stop it, Stop it, Junior?
Speaker 3 (04:16):
What you got?
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Yeah, well, I gotta ask you about this now, because
you know, did you feel like now in comedy there's
nobody teaching comedy no more the business of it and
how we're supposed to behave on the road, how we're well,
you know there's no more teachers.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, it's just what has happened, man is and I'm
not blaming hip hop, but it's kind of a hip
hop culture, you know this beef They so now you
got comedians who acting like they battle rappers when comedy
is not that comedy is. You walk out on stage,
you make the audience laugh, have a good time for
(04:53):
the money they spent, and they go home and remember
your jokes and tell them again. O can't wait to
see you again. You on stage? Dog and another act out?
What is that about? It makes no sense, man, do
your show. Nobody wants to pay a ticket to hear
you complain, and great people pay their money to come
to a comedy show to hear a set and laugh
(05:15):
and enjoy himself. If you on stage venting carrying out
a vendetta on that blasting somebody else, man, ain't nobody
pay no money for that.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Man. That's just the only thing about it. And I
wish we would.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
And there are still some cats out there that's doing
great work. Earthquake, This Boy Country Wayne that I saw
his special this weekend. This Boy Country Wayne, Man, what
a hell of a special that I watched. Man, congratulations,
young homie. That was a bad special.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
And now all I saw this dude was doing skits
on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I thought that's all he did, and he parlayed it
into a Netflix special, and I thought, that Boy, Country Wayne,
that one of the best specials I've seen. Dion and
Cold Charlene's Baby Boy one of the great specials. Tommy's
still out there doing it at a level that you're
supposed to do it at kill doing it at a
level he's supposed to do it. I go out there
(06:11):
and make people laugh, have a good ass time man,
Dave Chappelle, you know he be on crossing that line,
but that's some funny ass lines he'd be crossing. You
feel how you want to see if Kevin Hard out there,
there's some boys out there, that man that's really really
still doing it the right way, you know, said DL
Steal out there, low Pass.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
It's a lot of cats.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
