Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome to the Neighborhood anytime anywhere, twenty four to seven
on demand. This is the Big Boys Neighborhood podcast podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Big Boy neighbor We're speaking yay. Did two shows sold
out shows at so far, Yes, sir, seventy thousand plus
each night. Right, and you were there Wednesday night Night one?

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (00:27):
Yeah, I mean the vibe was crazy. I invited my
friends super last minute. She went over my house right
after work. I even had to give her like an
outfit because she wasn't ready and we pulled up.

Speaker 5 (00:38):
Dude.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
I was so excited that he brought out Don Tolliver
right because he's having a moment right now with that
song E eighty five and I just I love that song.
And then he brought him out to perform Moon and
you know, when he brought him out, I was like, damn,
this is crazy.

Speaker 5 (00:52):
But when I saw night.

Speaker 4 (00:53):
Two, I was low key hating because everybody that he
brought out, like Lauren hill Yd and Ziggye Mar not
only that, but Selo Green Scott and he brought out
obviously his daughter Northwest both.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Nights, and he did he did a couple of different
songs that night Wednesday. What did that crowd look like
to you?

Speaker 6 (01:13):
Though?

Speaker 5 (01:13):
It was crazy?

Speaker 4 (01:14):
I mean I saw people from all ages like singing
word for word.

Speaker 5 (01:19):
Literally I was on the floor.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Yeah, problems because that.

Speaker 5 (01:27):
I could still see him.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
Yeah, but I was like more in the back, okay, yeah,
so I could still see him.

Speaker 5 (01:31):
The visuals were still super dope.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
But the first night, y'all and have the screen that
would like No, That's what.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
I noticed because I kept telling my friend, you know,
I was like looking around to see what everybody's vibe
was like, and I noticed that they didn't have the screen.
I was like, that's crazy, Like why wouldn't he put
the screen so that everybody can see the moon the
Earth like when you were standing on Like, the visuals
were freaking crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
I tripped off of I've been to shows at so
far Madi, but the energy there was different. It was
it was on the Friday night that I went. The
energy was different.

Speaker 4 (02:03):
In there, man, and people are calling it like the
best concert ever. I had a chance to talk to
some people, and this is what one of my friends
said about his show.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Alrighty man, you got it you oh there. I genuinely
think that he's just such a good artist. And he
put on a performance.

Speaker 7 (02:21):
And trust me, I've seen so many.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Artists, but I think, hands down, hands down, Kanye West
has got to be the best concert that I've ever
been to. Damn Wow, It's crazy.

Speaker 4 (02:33):
How like, after all the controversy, I think he's the
most controversial artist of this era for sure.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
Yeah, And I don't know if it's the bounce back
or whatever. We were talking about the cancel culture too, right,
Is there still a cancel culture? You know, because now
you're seeing some of the most outlandish things being said
from from the top to the so called bottom. Is
there still a cancel culture? Now we've seen with the

(03:00):
Wireless Fest that's going down, Diagio and PEPSI pulled out
because Yay apparently you know, they pulled out, but it
got to be because Yay was added to it. So
there's a cancel culture, I guess. But for those out there,
do you feel like the cancel culture is over? Is
this selective who gets canceled?

Speaker 4 (03:22):
I think it's dead lokem and I think I'll be
I'll admit it, it's very selective. I didn't realize that
until this show because I'm very much like at first
when he was saying those things. I was like, oh, man,
I hate that for YA because I'm a YA fan.
But I still went out there. But I also went
out there to look at the vibe and also because
his music. I mean, his music is timeless, and I
mean it was proven there from everybody singing word for words.

(03:43):
So I think that it's definitely selective in my opinion.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Right, all right, we'll talk about it, but for those
out there, man, it's cancel culture? Is it over? Hit
us up? Big Boys neighbor.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Listening to the Big Boy's Neighborhood podcast.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
Big Boys Neighborhood, Beautiful Day in Neighborhood? Man, where's speaking
on it? And want you to speak on it as well?
Is the cancel culture over? And then we're also just
kind of saying, with two sold out nights at Sofi Stadium,
is what's your take on ye? Now you know what
I'm saying. What is your take? So I'm going to
bring Mike Int to the neighborhood and see what's going
down with Mike couple hair. Mike, Hello, Hello, I'm doing well.

(04:21):
Is cancel culture over? Or is it? Did you want
to talk about what you feel about YA?

Speaker 8 (04:25):
Now I'll talk about yay first, but to be quick,
cancel culture is a myss. I think we use it
all to tell people are canceled because we don't like
what they got to say, because we have no real
opinion to it, or not intelligent enough to have actual conversation.
But the whole nother story, I think Kanye is heavily critiqued.
Look at his entire career. Everyone talks about everything he does,

(04:46):
both good and bad, controversial, great, amazing, genius level stuff
like that. But the moment he does something crazy, we
call him crazy. And if you look at anything else,
no one else is heavily critiqued or you know, judged
by his actions based on what YA has done. But
will buy his shoes, will buy his clothing, We'll go

(05:06):
to his shows, we promote his music. So I think
all of us are also bipolar with Kanye as well,
for his bipolaris and I think that is why we
all want to talk about him, you know. And I
think that's the problem. Is he is the great artist
that he is, but separate his artist thry from him
as a person. Don't deny him as a person because

(05:28):
his music is great, And don't deny his music is
great because his personal behavior, I guess you want to say,
is can be off the rails.

Speaker 6 (05:35):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
I hear I hear that a lot too, Mike, where
people say, you know, you got to separate the music
from the person. And sometimes too, Mike, that's hard, you
know what I'm saying. Sometimes that's some Sometimes that's that's
that's extremely hard, and I think that's bad for you.
That's easy to say too. I just and to each
his own, to each his own. Man, if there's someone

(05:56):
like like with me, I never took hey, I'm not
playing any of it. We never dropped in. I don't
think we dropped any Kanye music or anything like that
as a station. I never said I'm not going to
play his music. Now, there's certain songs, especially when he
was going off, I won't play right, you know what
I'm saying. But but yeah, when I and that's the
reason why I'm asking, Mike, because when I was sitting
there and I'm watching that night seventy thousand plus and

(06:18):
say eighty thousand people, I'm looking and I'm like, wow,
you know what I'm saying, just just a month ago,
and go ahead.

Speaker 8 (06:27):
Now, so listen, just hear me out the answer, but
to hear me out. Okay, we talk about Kanye all
his albums, he's done, and we want to cancel him
years later, what about Eminem and all this stuff he
said for twenty years, twenty five years of his career.
We never canceled him. Jay Z has said things. Never
cancel him. We wanted to cancel everyone because of what
they say, or go back, like the whole Kevin Hart

(06:48):
situation and bring up something from the past and then
want to cancel all, cancel him in current relativity. It's like,
what's your point? You know, everyone said something in the past,
you know.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Do you know what I think about that too? Mike
is like, people judge you by today's standards. Like even
in my career, I've done things in my career. This
is year thirty two for me on air Mike in
Los Angeles. You know what I'm saying, And I thank you,
my brother. I've done things on air long ago that
I would never do on air now different we were wow,

(07:19):
and you know, but and then also with Eminem, Eminem
had a moment and he had a time where we
were like, oh man, that's wold, that's crazy, and now
when you look back, you're like, oh, my lord, you
know this dude were talking about killing his baby mama,
putting her in the trunk and everything, you know. But
also I think with Yay, people aren't canceling Yay or

(07:41):
saying certain things about Yay for a lot of yesterday.
Yay's giving you a lot today. You know what I'm saying,
He's given you a lot today. So I think that
And then also Mike, I think as well, Bro, I
think that there's more ways to communicate now. I think
there's more outrage and then now you can just go
straight to your device and you could just say something.

(08:02):
You know, early in my radio career you had to
call with a complaint, you had the facts, or you
had to email, and now it's just boom, you could
just say something. So I think now, Mike, I think
that's what we're seeing is that the voices now are amplified.
And we're seeing that as well. Thank you, Mike, I
have a conversation man, you as well. That's Mike right there.
Y'all hit us up. Big Boys NAB.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
Always stay tapped into Big Boy's neighborhood. Become one of
our neighbors. Follow us right now on ig that Big
Boy's Neighborhood and on TikTok Big Boy.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
Big Boys Neighborhood, Beautiful Day, the neighborhood Man, We're speaking
on it and want you to speak on it as well.
Is the cancel culture over? And then we also just
kind of saying, with two sold out nights at Sofi
Stadium is what's your take on ya? Now I'm gonna
go to Eric and she was going down with Eric
up in here.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
Eric, Hello, Hello, Hello.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
There Eric, Eric, we're speaking on yay or cancel culture?
What you got on your mind?

Speaker 9 (08:59):
Brother Big I've been listening to you thirty some odd years.
I'm a Jewish hip hop head, and I think that
a lot of this there's a matter of degree. I
really appreciate you talking on this. Like I remember when
no Vasilink came out and the whole line with jew
messing up my crew, you and others start bleeping it out,
and I really appreciated that. And with Kanye, I think

(09:22):
a lot of people and a lot of times, with
all hate, we got to put each other in other
people's shoes. And I always want to ask you, actually,
like how do you think it feels as a Jew
to hear Kanye because I respect you so much and
the same thing I do with every other hate. When
I see people hating on black people, people hating on

(09:43):
gay people, Latinos, you know, the whole maga stuff, I think,
what would I feel like if I was in other
people's shoes? And to your point, the more talented you are,
the more forgiveness you get. Same thing in sports, right,
So I just I really appreciate you having this conversation.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
I want to ask you want question as well, being
as you said, Jewish hip hop head right, where are
you eric with ya today?

Speaker 9 (10:07):
With yea, I do not listen to him. It upsets
me a lot to hear when people say that other stuff.
When you're talking about dude wearing a swastika, he bought
a Super Bowl ad to link to a shirt with it,
made a song called Kyle Hitler. I mean, for people
who don't know, that's calling for the killing of every
Jew like me. That's what that is. That's not like

(10:30):
ordinary hate. And I'm not a big fan of cancel culture,
but sometimes people can go over a line like we
don't hear r Kelly on the radio anymore?

Speaker 6 (10:38):
And good.

Speaker 9 (10:41):
You know, I just I don't know where that line
is and it's not for me.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
But he crossed it for you though, right, Eric.

Speaker 9 (10:49):
Oh absolutely, I mean you call for the death of
every Jew. I mean you called for the death of
every anything. I mean, that's just not okay.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
Let me let me ask you this man. When Yay
went over to and did the two shows in Mexico, right,
those two shows, they so completely out right, And then
I was like, I was wondering, Eric, I said, man,
could they do that here?

Speaker 6 (11:10):
You know?

Speaker 2 (11:11):
And obviously we saw that at sofar and he did
it here for two nights, right, But I'm looking at
the crowd, and even to keep it real with you too, Eric,
I took my daughter and the friend that she took
to the show with her is Jewish. How do you feel,
and you can only go by you and your standards, right,
how it made you feel in the line that he

(11:32):
crossed for you. But if there's a broad stroke, and
I want to ask you, how do you feel about
people showing up by the tens of thousands or by
the thousands that could have been Jewish in that crowd?

Speaker 9 (11:47):
I mean, look, they're Jews who feel differently about different things.
I mean, I know how I look at Jewish people
who you know, participate in the anti Semitism that's been
on the rise late. I mean, if you're Jewish, you
know what anti semitism is lately, especially since October seventh. Personally,

(12:08):
I'm not a fan when Jewish people help anti semis.
But to each his or her own. It just it
really bothers me that tens of thousands of people are
showing up to support him, but I'm not surprised. And
on top of that, I'm not going to deny his talent, right,
I mean what and then when you say cancel culture,

(12:30):
what are we going to cancel everything? All of his music,
including what he's produced. I mean, you could argue he's
a better producer than he is a performer. So it's
I don't know where you draw the line. I don't
know if it's my job to draw a line. Art
is so different than something.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Yeah, but at any moment to Eric, like how you
said you can draw the personal line. Yeah, and you've
drawn your personal line and no one can argue your
personal life. Eric Man, I thank you for your view,
your angle, and I know that this call represents a
lot of other people that probably couldn't get in and
thank you for sharing and speaking with us as well. Eric,

(13:08):
I appreciate you, my.

Speaker 9 (13:09):
Brother, Thank you big It's an honor to speak to.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
You, honor to speak with you as well. That's Eric
right there, Big Boy name a neighborhood. Adie's upon a
Big Boy from Big Boy's Neighborhood on iHeartRadio. Here's another
incase you missed it, moment with us. What was your
worst date?

Speaker 10 (13:28):
I let this guy at a coffee shop I went
to meet up to go to the movie. When we
get to the ticket booth, he has a whole fix
about how I should pay for him because he paid
to my coffee when we met. I've never been so embarrassed.
There's people in line looking at us, like how would
you just yell at me?

Speaker 11 (13:44):
Here?

Speaker 2 (13:45):
She was like, I paid for your coffee, so you
should pay for the movie. Yeah. Wow, Thank you for listening.
It is upon the Big Boy, Big Boy's Neighborhood. You
could catch more of us right here on iHeartRadio. Big
boy neighbor luisg is up in here man pooh shisty.
Of course he's home. Yeah, grabausheisty. And it seemed like
he want to go back.

Speaker 12 (14:03):
Oh yeah, I think so.

Speaker 13 (14:03):
Bro The headline of saying Poosheisty kidnapp being Gucci Maine
and forcing him at gunpoint to release him from his
contract as well. But this is everything that's happening.

Speaker 14 (14:12):
This is what we know so far, aside from learning
that the ninth and final suspect has been arrested. We've
been able to obtain video which shows the FBI at
Pouschheisty's home the day he was arrested.

Speaker 15 (14:23):
Take a look at that video.

Speaker 14 (14:25):
This happened in Memphis. Federal authorities say Sisty was the
ringleader behind the attack on Gucci Maine. Here in Dallas,
that incident happened back in January at a music studio
located off Dallas Parkway. The DOJ says Gucci Main and
two others were allegedly kidnapped and robbed at gunpoint. They
say nine people were involved, including Pouhsheisty's father and Big

(14:49):
thirty four background Poosh Heisty signed.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
On to Jaden Ben, my son, Jayden Ben, and I
asked me to go kidnap somebody who because the dad, I'm.

Speaker 14 (14:56):
Gonna roll it to Gucci Mane's Racker label back in
twenty twenty, and according to the DOJ, Pouschheisty is the
one who set up the meeting to discuss his recording contract.

Speaker 11 (15:08):
As alleged, Williams Junior produced an ak style pistol and
forced one of the victims to sign a release from
the recording contract. At gunpoint, the remaining conspirators displayed firearms
and robbed the other victims of Rolex watches, jewelry, cash,
and other high value items.

Speaker 14 (15:27):
Poushisty was released from federal prison in October and was
placed on home confinement for a previous conviction, meaning that
it's likely he was wearing an ankle monitor at the
time of the crime.

Speaker 13 (15:40):
Damn pool nice and it was him because they said
Williams Junior and Williams Juniors Pusheisty's real name.

Speaker 12 (15:45):
So he was definitely one of the ones with the guther.

Speaker 2 (15:47):
Yeah, I'm just talking about about that. I saw other
things we were saying it wasn't Gucci. Yeah, you know
what I'm saying that That's what I was saying, that
it wasn't Gucci, that was somebody in Gucci's camp.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
Gotcha, that's crazy, Like you just got like.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Hey, dude, he got this song. He got this the
fd O, his first Day Out song. It's like six
minutes and poo sisty killing this record. But he also
got this one we were talking about when he getting
home and going somebody you don't record that, but he
got one called f d O. If y'all listen to that,

Jerry Washington and the neighborhood. Did you and jay Lo
go to the same boys and Girls club or that
did he did?

Speaker 22 (24:00):
So?

Speaker 15 (24:00):
Jennifer and I lived in the same neighborhood and we
had this beloved dance teacher Larry who got really sick.

Speaker 17 (24:07):
Jay.

Speaker 15 (24:08):
Jennifer is a little bit older than me, so when
Larry went to the hospital, she was like one of
the big girls. I was like eight and she was
a teenager and she stepped in to teach some of
Larry's classes. So I actually learned to dance from Jennifer Lopez.
I'm not as good as Jennifer Lobez, but yeah, you big.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
The world is not wild. Thank you for listening. It
is you find a big boy, Big Boy's neighborhood. You
could catch more of us right here on iHeartRadio. Big
Boy's Neighborhood. Already put goal up there as well. Luigi
fo for World Cup. Bro, you in quested it is
a mess.

Speaker 12 (24:40):
It is a mess, Bro.

Speaker 2 (24:41):
The World Cup.

Speaker 13 (24:42):
You know it's gonna be in a mess because obviously
the US is hosting, but there's certain like, uh.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
This kid is obviays gonna be a mess because everything
that's happening right on the US.

Speaker 13 (24:50):
Okay, so you man, people are afraid to even come
to the US. People are getting her rash just because
they're from other countries coming to the US. There's I
heard a situation about his stadium that hasn't even got
their money so they can provide security so when the
games come and then they host, so they're like, where's
the money at right? Sofi Stadium in Los Angeles, they
got a lot of employees who are worried about ice

(25:13):
being in presence there, and they're willing to go on
strike if that happens, you know what I mean. There's
situations now where it's already difficult to buy these tickets,
and the price of these tickets are like not even
they're not affordable for anybody. They're eight thousand dollars, nine
thousand dollars. People are buying them, and you had to
go through You had to go through.

Speaker 12 (25:32):
Like a raffle.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
I didn't pay eight thousand dollars for my first five
yeah combined.

Speaker 13 (25:37):
So the process even so the process to even get
these tickets, you had to join some type of lottery.

Speaker 12 (25:42):
Then they were gonna pick.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
You gotta win a lot of you gotta win the
lot to buy the tickets.

Speaker 6 (25:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
No, I'm talking about you got to actually win a
lot of money to pay eight thousand dollars tickets.

Speaker 12 (25:53):
Yeah, that line. So a few people were lucky enough
to buy some.

Speaker 13 (25:56):
I mean there was in categories like Category one was
the more most defensive Category two, Category three. Right, So
those people who bought that Category one, who thought they
were getting those like VIP one hundred level tickets are
now are now mad because they're switching it up on them.

Speaker 19 (26:10):
And in some cases, even if they paid a Category
one price, they're actually in sections that were colored red
for Category two at one point, because FIFA has been
quietly altering these maps throughout the past several months. So
the fans are furious, they feel misled, taken, advantage of scammed.
Those are a few words they've used. One even told
me he's considering a class action lawsuit. FIFA's response, the

(26:31):
maps were quote indicative end quote, designed to provide guidance
rather than the exact seat layout. IFIVA didn't say anything
about why these seat maps that were shown to all
the ticket buyers didn't account for all the hospitality.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
In our very own DJ quests. You got caught up
any question?

Speaker 23 (26:46):
Yeah, dog, I got Category one, which is supposed to
be the best, you know, ticket you could buy.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
But they didn't give you your seat right away. They
just said you're going to be placed in somewhere in
this well, I think it was like an all area.

Speaker 23 (26:57):
Yeah okay, but at the time, I think it was
only like one hundred section and only like on the
middle side.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
Of the pitch, the gold you know the field.

Speaker 23 (27:07):
Now because I finally found my tickets, which I had
to go to like Reddit and find a link, like
they don't even Yeah, it's a mess, bro And I
saw my tickets and now like I'm on the corner
on the stadium, I am in the hundred section, but
like I'm on the literally the corner of the stadium
next to kind of like where it's a football stadium.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
So like where the football players I come through. It's
a mess. The view is terrible. How would you pay
for those of you? In my mind, I think it
was like four fifty.

Speaker 23 (27:32):
But I want access to join the first round of
the lottery, I noticed because I want two other times
to join. They raised the prices every new lottery that
was available.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Terrible. You guys to buy me a jersey and just
run out there like I'm part of the act like
you below with you don't get a question. I can't
find the.

Speaker 23 (27:51):
Old like the map, the key that showed the original seats.
I can't find it and what Louis said, now I
see on the bottom and says, oh, it's subject to change.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
This is just like to guide yourself. Oh yeah that
little ash Yeah, no one who reads that's subject to change. Change. Shady. Yeah,
people has been known to be shady. Yeah. Yeah, I
don't know the gambling and stuff. Yeah, it's like a
known thing that they're like super short. Alright, to hang
with us in the neighborhood, Big Boys Neighborhood.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
Welcome to the neighborhood anytime anywhere, twenty four to seven.
This is the Big Boy's Neighborhood podcast.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
Big Boy Neighborhood. Hasu suppovid is up in here? Man.
We're speaking about should boyfriend and girlfriends are significant others
be in the family picture when you have gathering, right,
so you know Easter Sunday, they know people were there,
the family's there. It's rare for all of us to
be together when we're there.

Speaker 7 (28:45):
Before you leave, you take the family picture and everybody
in their own you know, families want to take a
picture of themselves with the outfits and stuff. And of
course my cousin brings the girlfriend and the girlfriend got
comfortable and got in the middle and then my aunt
looked at her and said, no, no, not to the.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Left, and you right there. I know he brought you here,
but sure yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:09):
Man saw her face embarrassed.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
She didn't like that.

Speaker 7 (29:12):
And then like I didn't understood what the left thing was.
I was like, oh, maybe it was like the size.
I don't know what it was because and she actually
stood on the spot that my aunt wanted to.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
So she was a little botthered by. But it's because
at the end, if they don't work out, they're gonna
crop out her pictures.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
Yeah, they just crop around, that's it, like if they
don't last.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
But even the get all the way to the left,
to the left, right, yeah, right for the crop out.
I just wouldn't let them in the picture.

Speaker 7 (29:39):
Oh and that's what she was saying, like because they
were arguing in the in the driveway and they were
having a little moment, and she.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Thought that the one that got kicked out the yes,
the girlfriend and my cousin.

Speaker 7 (29:48):
They were having a little argument, but she didn't notice
that my aunt was put a traditions away and saw
and said.

Speaker 12 (29:53):
No, no, no, no, I'm gonna go see what's going on.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
So she goes over there and makes a little scene
and me, i't even let you in the picture? Can
let you in? It was the whole thing. The girl
you never she started doing out the hole. You never
liked me? And how has she been with the guy
the family man, like at least like eight eight months?
Oh no, she's not in the picture. I thought, No, bro,

(30:17):
let me tell you what you do. Wow, And this
is what you take back to your family as well.
All right you put you put everybody in whoever want
to be in the picture. And this is what my
wife does. Then she'll say, all right, family only, and
then she'll say all right, us only as far as
like Jade and Jade Vettel got big, you know, so
so so everybody gets in the picture as somewhat. But

(30:38):
at some point I would literally be like, hey, no,
we were good, right.

Speaker 12 (30:43):
Girl, like you should have hurt your place, and be like, no, no,
you go go with the family.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
I'll take the picture. You dating someone for eight months?
Do you get? Do you step into the family picture?

Speaker 4 (30:55):
I won't, And if I did, I would put myself
on the edge because I know that this is a
family picture. It's like supposed to be meant for them.
So if I do get in, I feel in love,
but champion, But honestly, I feel like, yeah, she should
have if she knew she was going to jump in
the picture, she should have jumped on the side off
or at least.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Wait you're called in exactly you get in there. Look
at it differently. I'm like, she should be in the picture.
It's a moment, this is a memory, Like what, what's
the big deal?

Speaker 4 (31:23):
I think that's my brother when he was with his
girlfriend now fiance during her brother's wedding, he was in
the family picture and now they're getting married into one.

Speaker 2 (31:32):
Yeah, but I'm talking about nah nah, I'm telling you, man,
there's pictures that I look at to I'm like, dude,
like why are you in the picture? Like literally, my
wife was at a baby shower over the weekend on
Saturday and there's a family picture and then there's one person.
I'm like, what is he doing in this picture? And

(31:53):
she was like I don't know. But she didn't call it.
She didn't call it out because it wasn't her place
to call it out.

Speaker 13 (31:57):
But yeah, I mean, you got to get out a
couple of mine who has been posting, like, you know,
pictures from like Easter and stuff like that. But the
last two, she supposted she had to like put a
star over the.

Speaker 2 (32:06):
Girl how Mami albums I'm in. I don't want to
do where I'm like smearing you out or got explain
who you are. It's easier for me at that time,
and just say, hey, can you step off the picture
the left? Yeah? Or you did? You know? It's it's quick,
take extra pictures.

Speaker 4 (32:27):
I don't want to make anybody know feel included, but
I do think it's up to the person to, like, okay,
you know, put some common sense to it.

Speaker 5 (32:33):
Don't they don't.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
Have common sense? I would you use mine and just say, hey,
step step off the picture, all right? You to hang
with us in the neighborhood, big.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Boy so can't move out of the neighborhood. Huh, why
don't you stay with us a little longer and make
sure to watch the best moments from Big Boys Neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Now on you too, Big Boy Neighborhood. We were speaking
about man Lamar, Yes, Chloe Kardashian got there'd be a
lot of conversation now, huh.

Speaker 4 (33:04):
I'm told the death and life of Lamar odom such
a good documentary. It gives us like the inside of
his addiction, what he went through, I mean all of
the trauma, because I will say he went through a lot,
but that doesn't justify anything about his loved ones.

Speaker 5 (33:19):
How he made his loved ones feel.

Speaker 4 (33:21):
And he's been getting some backlash because of Chloe Kardashian
and he was asked if he has any words for her,
if he would want to rekindle that relationship.

Speaker 22 (33:30):
Let me ask you a question. Have you had a
chance to talk to Chloe? Since no, are you open
to talking to her?

Speaker 6 (33:36):
I mean after it happens organically organically?

Speaker 22 (33:39):
Yeah, do you feel like I mean, what would you
say to her? If this is what he got? Testimonied,
That's what I'm saying. Does trauma? Does trauma find a way.

Speaker 6 (33:46):
Where comes and goes trauma? Hopefully?

Speaker 22 (33:48):
Yeah, but even broke, but even for her that was
traumatic for her obviously, right, hopefully this is who But now.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
It's not like deal trying to get a whole interview
like lamareswhere he's like, what I'm thinking it was to
sit down at her. He was like, man, I gotta
go bron.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
Yeah, But he did also say that it like doing
the documentary made him. It gave him kind of like
a therapy session, you know, like it was very therapeutic
for him.

Speaker 2 (34:12):
Gave me one. Yeah, I was watching that, man, and
it was very not understanding. But you saw a lot
with Lamar Oldham and his addiction and how powerful addiction is,
you know. And I know some of the people in
the neighborhood, and I'm pretty sure there's quite a few
people out there that probably haven't seen the documentary yet.
So there's a lot of like aha moments and no damns,

(34:34):
and I don't want to spoil that for anyone.

Speaker 4 (34:35):
Yeah, no, there is a lot of old damns. That's
why I feel like everyone should go watch it. And
the reason why he's getting some backlash is because of
the Chloe Kardashian situation, Like it feels like he's kind
of taking away from the fact that she was there
for him through everything.

Speaker 5 (34:48):
I mean, this girl wiped his Yeah man.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
Yeah literally, yeah, yeah, man.

Speaker 12 (34:55):
I hope she heals Like, no, bro, you got.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Is almost like this the audacity, But he was also
on the move too. It looked like and it sounded like, yeah,
you know, nobody they still said it.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
Yeah, he still said it.

Speaker 4 (35:11):
And it doesn't just like, Okay, I do have some
empathy over Lamar for everything that he went because I
feel like he was, you know, a very traumatized guy,
you know, but it doesn't justify the fact that he
left the mother of his children.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
Like he would a man. He wanted to be a star.

Speaker 4 (35:27):
And then the wedding was on TV. You're the children
is watching that one?

Speaker 2 (35:31):
You met? Nobody?

Speaker 5 (35:33):
You met Chloe kardash thirty days he decided to marry.

Speaker 2 (35:36):

Speaker 1 (43:41):
This is the Big Boy's Neighborhood BOYD.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
Podcast, Big Boy's Neighborhood. Alright, now, we want you to
speak on it. Do people still care about getting married?
We're going to bring Carol into the neighborhood. And see
what's going down with Carol. I love seeing how nervous
you guys are getting all right, okay, Carol, Hello, Hello,
hello there, Carol. Carol will see that you call it

(44:07):
from rocks hard top of the food chamber. All right now, Carol, Carol,
do people still care about getting married? Carol?

Speaker 6 (44:16):
I do think people still care about getting married.

Speaker 17 (44:18):
I think we've glorified having a side, chick having a side.

Speaker 9 (44:21):
But actually I wanted to speak on what the other callers.
Joey said, Oh lord, I think a lot of people do.

Speaker 2 (44:26):
Go ahead, please, thank you, Carol King said.

Speaker 6 (44:30):
He said that girls just want money.

Speaker 17 (44:33):
But if that was the case, wouldn't we lock into
a marriage and.

Speaker 9 (44:36):
Get that check?

Speaker 2 (44:37):
Understood? Understood? And I don't do it more right? But
but you know what, what's wild about that?

Speaker 4 (44:43):
That's what I think, Like, why wouldn't we locked in
and make sure we got.

Speaker 8 (44:47):
That now and after they're gone?

Speaker 2 (44:50):
Right?

Speaker 4 (44:51):
Well, technically the guy saying he didn't want to get married, right,
not right, but but.

Speaker 8 (44:58):
He's saying that women these days are only about money.

Speaker 6 (45:00):
So that's the case.

Speaker 15 (45:01):
Where don't we if he then we would care about marriage?

Speaker 2 (45:05):
Right, and you'll do it the right way to like, oh,
let me get his money exact. But I think a
lot of that when we say oh gold digger and
money and all that, I think a lot of and
a lot of that could be true, right, But I
think that social media and everything plays a part in
how we view certain things now because I'll see sometimes
I'll be like a girl, like a lady, like oh,
you got to bring a hundred thousand. I'm like, well,
what do you bring? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (45:26):
You know what I'm saying, Like, marriage is a two
way street.

Speaker 10 (45:30):
I've been married for ten years is hard work, hard work,
But I've been with.

Speaker 17 (45:35):
My partner for twenty one years.

Speaker 2 (45:36):
So I heard that. Yeah, And let me tell you,
and the reason why and the reason why I give
Hay Susa and Louis such a hard time is because
y'all live together. Yeah, y'all got kids together, and and
you're already.

Speaker 9 (45:51):
Sharing what's the end results?

Speaker 2 (45:53):
Yeah? Like yeah, world, what's the end game?

Speaker 6 (45:56):
So long world.

Speaker 2 (46:01):
Playing?

Speaker 12 (46:01):
Howdy?

Speaker 7 (46:07):
Or we're just living our lives very very happy. Yeah
they're married, and I'm very happy me too. You happy
for me, But because you're married, mean we're not happy
if it.

Speaker 4 (46:21):
Works out for your your girl too, Like I guess
it makes sense, you know, because it's like, I don't know,
I feel like I get mixed inos like I said,
with getting married, and it's like I love the idea
of like a marriage and the idea of a ring
and all that, but then I'm like, I'm also happy
with not having to put so much work into another.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
In the best of both worlds right now?

Speaker 5 (46:41):
Yes, it's like, what do I want?

Speaker 2 (46:42):
I mean, can we bring Rico into the neighborhood real quick?
Because he was going down with the Rico act Rico.

Speaker 6 (46:50):
Boy?

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Hello there, Rico, Rico? What ce you call him from?

Speaker 6 (46:54):
From Lancaster?

Speaker 2 (46:55):
Alrighty, now, Rico from Lancaster, Dude, people still care about
getting married Rico.

Speaker 8 (47:00):
I think people, I honestly think girls just care about
the ring. But I think that if marriage was like
if you had to renew your marriage license, like how
you had.

Speaker 6 (47:09):
To renew your license driving five years.

Speaker 8 (47:11):
Six years, I think, yeah, I think it'll last longer.

Speaker 6 (47:14):
I don't.

Speaker 8 (47:14):
I think just to say you're gonna be with somebody forever,
forever is a long time.

Speaker 2 (47:20):
A time share, so you say it's like a time
share news you hate times here, so you're saying you
hate marriage. That sounds like what you're saying.

Speaker 13 (47:31):
It's had a bad experience with a time share. Okay,
do Mara want to get married?

Speaker 12 (47:35):
She's never really pushed the issue, to be honest. Nothing crazy.

Speaker 13 (47:38):

to be invited to that show.

Speaker 5 (49:21):

And so you know, the message that I had brought
to the show in time that I remember that he
spreads love and his suit's over here was kind of
hating on it. Well that's the thing that he's done

The first time that I realized that I was born

father when I was like a little little girl. He
used to have like a band and I used to
play with him, like in different places. And I love
the idea of doing that. I love the most. That
was singing and just watching the reaction the people, like

(58:00):
people clapping and having fun and dancing. And I just
grew up like thinking all the time that I was
about to be a ginger, I was going to be
a singer, and I had this deep feeling inside me
that is this or nothing else.

Speaker 2 (58:13):
Did she see her documentary? I think it was on Netflix. Man,
she works hard, Yeah she does. She works hard.

Speaker 13 (58:21):

specifically when they told me they called us for you

So we we electrified homes in Africa. So I have
a utility company that we electrified like millions. But when
I started early early on, Elon was doing these solar
rooftop things and I had partnered up with them for
certain parts of Africa at that time. That's how I
got the you know, the information on the Tesla and

(01:06:12):
seeing all that. So when I rode it and drove it,
I was like, whoa, this is out of here. This
is before he even thought about.

Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
Politics, right right right, right right right, he.

Speaker 20 (01:06:19):
Thought about politics. But then when that cyber truck came,
I was like, when I ordered that thing, it was
a rap. Then after that he got into politics. But
after that I didn't care because I just love the car.

And you know what's so wild about it? Like the
little Teslas they look like, okay, I could drive that.

Speaker 12 (01:11:10):
Yeah, you get that.

Speaker 20 (01:11:11):
Bug early on. Like my my bug came because my
dad used to take me to the studio with him.
So I would, you know, just watch and look around
and you know, go fetch somebody some coffee or whatever.
But for the most part, whenever they was chopping like
and cutting the two it, yeah, I would work with
the engineer and he would teach me little things. So
by the time I started just trying to produce, I

a kN that? We know? You know what I'm saying.
Where where there's a hip hop field to it? There's
there's there's you know, there's something where Where did you
land for that?

Speaker 20 (01:12:12):
You know like that? That that started probably in Jersey
and was mad metamorphed and developed in Atlanta.

Speaker 2 (01:12:20):
What took you to Jersey?

Speaker 20 (01:12:21):
Well, my dad ended up moving from Florida to New
York because he was doing culture exchange over at NYU
Damn and then but we lived in New Jersey while
he worked in New York.

Speaker 2 (01:12:35):
Oh, so that's what you'll pop over sometimes.

Speaker 20 (01:12:37):
Well, you know, it's just it's really it's like a
fifteen minute drive right under the bridge, you know, you
go hauler in Tungy right there. But for us, we
went to school in Jersey, and it was a little
different in Jersey because that's when you got a lot older.
Because I was just leaving middle school in Saint Louis
at that time. We went from Miami back to Saint Louis,
went to middle school, me and Nether went to middle
school together.

Speaker 2 (01:12:57):
Did you know?

Speaker 20 (01:12:58):
Yeah, we know each other. Damn's crazy because when we
got to the top, we was looking at each other.

Speaker 2 (01:13:02):
Like what are we doing?

Speaker 20 (01:13:07):
Like you know. It was funny because Nelly popped off
first with Country Grammar and he was actually the first
one to get me to Asia.

Speaker 2 (01:13:16):
Ever.

Speaker 20 (01:13:16):
Tour in Asia was with Nelly, Like Nelly called for
me and was like, yo, god, I'm going to Asia. Man,
he should jump on his road with me, like he
was the one that actually got me out that.

Speaker 2 (01:13:25):
And what were you what took you over there? Were
you performing?

Speaker 6 (01:13:28):
Then?

Speaker 2 (01:13:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 20 (01:13:28):
Performing? That's locked Up? Was heavy there? Like that was
my That was early by that time Country Grammar was
like damn you know, and I was. I went from
locked Up to uh Bonanza to I think Ghetto and
then mister Lonely. But I was right at the time
when I when I was with Miscelloney was just being released.

Speaker 2 (01:13:48):
Hey man, did it feel like you couldn't do any wrong?
Or were you nervous about the success? You know how
it was coming?

Speaker 20 (01:13:54):
It was interesting? Was this like I felt at because man,
it's kind of hard to say because my parents were
really well off from a perspective of comfort right because
my dad was doing his thing. But for some reason,
when I came to America, I just would always be
getting pulled into the ghetto because that's where I was
comfortable with. Right coming from Africa, it felt like a

(01:14:17):
big ghetto. So whenever we were in Miami, I found
myself like in Liberty City, like wherever the ghetto was.
When I was in Saint Louis, I was in East
Saint Louis. When I was in Jersey, I was in
born homes like you know, like you know, uh dunkin projects.
I was always around just the people that my mom
and Pap was like, why are you around these knuckleheads?

Speaker 2 (01:14:36):
Well, hell, you come out here and now you're get
with the gang out here.

Speaker 20 (01:14:44):
What it was, It just that's where I felt comfortable.
That's where I felt like I could be of use
or I don't know what it is, but for some reason,
as Amagnet, I always take me to areas I feel
like my presence is needed somehow. It was this crazyest thing.

Speaker 2 (01:14:57):

gone through different phases, whether he's bald or he just
had hair on his head, right, But you literally called
him out on it, like yo, So what was that
thing that you had on your hair?

Speaker 2 (01:15:35):
The other dude, because I didn't know when he came
to the neighborhood, he explained it. So what what is that?
When you said, I was wearing a piece?

Speaker 20 (01:15:41):
So okay, it's almost like a male wig. It's almost
like a two pay But the difference is you cut
your hair bald, but you leave the sides open, the
area where you losing hair. They replace it with a
piece they called it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:55):
And then they a unit put it like that and
then they shave it and.

Speaker 20 (01:15:58):
Then they cut it blended in with your original hair.
I did not catch on everything, like, but you you
be surprised how many celebrities actually got it, like, okay,
put it this way.

Speaker 2 (01:16:08):
I get named eight of them, but what I'm giving

haircuts used to be so perfect you couldn't like, how

of his recently? Oh man, my man, At least with you,
you're like, oh, I had a unit, I had a wig,

but you saw he had to cut off wrong with it? Like, yeah,
I'm wrong with it especially now.

Speaker 20 (01:17:01):
Yeah, I mean but I'm just saying, like I think
people have so they'd be so insecure with themselves to
the point where they have to feel like they got
to hide it. But it's nothing, nothing really bad about it.

Speaker 2 (01:17:09):
Were you ever nervous that it would come off.

Speaker 20 (01:17:11):
There's probably one show or two that I was like, well,
is that unit of getting loose? You just start sweating.
I'm definitely coming out with some units, I promise, and
they are so popular they sell more than wigs. You'd
be bro half through guys in the in the VIP section.

(01:17:33):
I would say, out of ten of them, seven of
them got wigs.

Speaker 2 (01:17:36):
On man, And when Akon came to the neighborhood, I
just had no idea. And then people start pointing out
that one time in the comments and they were like,
oh rugg And I was like what And I even
when you see the entire interview, I complimented him that
day on how nice his hair was.
