1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:16,000
Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please.

2
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:40,000
The show starts in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, go.

3
00:00:46,000 --> 00:01:04,000
This is a Chao production.

4
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,000
What is happening ladies and gentlemen, Twisted Critics.

5
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,000
This is a Sunday afternoon, September 17th.

6
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,000
What is going on? I'm joined online with the other two crazy co-hosts, Candy and A.M.

7
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,000
What you guys up to?

8
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Hey, I'm watching the game, but I'm in here with y'all.

9
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000
This is going to be, this is going to go bad.

10
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,000
Nah, same. I'm just drinking and watching the game.

11
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,000
Gotcha, gotcha. I'm happy to have you boys with me and I'm happy to be drinking with you guys.

12
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,000
So let's dive right into it. We have a really special guest.

13
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000
We've got one of our family members as a special guest.

14
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:41,000
A.M. pulling out the guitar to serenade him, I think.

15
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,000
It's either that or he's playing the music for Baltimore.

16
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,000
The death march.

17
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,000
All right. So let me kick things off.

18
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,000
What is the Twisted Critics as the Twisted Critics podcast?

19
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:59,000
We are the bias, the unbiased brothers across the whole U.S. who dig music and music business.

20
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,000
Twisted Critics originally began with me and my cousin, Tony Ganja in 2018.

21
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:09,000
And it's now relaunched with two crazy new co-hosts, A.M. and Candelario.

22
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:13,000
Myself and A.M. are active artists ourselves.

23
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Us three are collaborators, radio reviewers, friends and current business execs from Hear My Voice Entertainment and Publishing.

24
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:27,000
Starting this year, the Twisted Critics podcast is curating our very own Spotify set of VIP playlists

25
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:32,000
to better help promote our special guest and other songs that we just very much love and play every single week.

26
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:39,000
Damn right. From both good, bad experience in the rap game, our jobs around the industry and questions,

27
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:44,000
misinformation that we've heard at music conferences, we remember what it's like to start out,

28
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,000
mistakes and being told false information everywhere you ask.

29
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:55,000
So we try to provide direct answers, correct business practices, clear legal steps and helpful resources.

30
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,000
It's our mutual love, though, from all of our weekly calls, our Ear for Urban Music, our mathematical eyes on the radio charts,

31
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:10,000
our reviews for the labels, our heated song debates, the guests and our solidarity in sharing a few drinks

32
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:15,000
to build this therapeutic, productive and often wild platform for y'all to check out.

33
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:22,000
If nothing else, tune in with an open mind, a notepad and a full glass to enjoy an informative, entertaining, twisted vibe.

34
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,000
And you might learn something. I know I do every time.

35
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Please be interactive and send questions via our social media and will not only give you a shout out on air,

36
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:38,000
but also give you directions and advice to us three, our believers in the motto, a drunk man or woman tells no lies

37
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:44,000
and how we can equally be helpful and entertaining. We like to call it education through inebriation.

38
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,000
I love that every single week when both y'all boys say that.

39
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,000
So let the people out there, let's give them their salutations, let them know who each of us are.

40
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,000
So A.M., why don't you kick us off just like Hear My Voice does. What's your little elevator pitch? Let them know who you are.

41
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:05,000
Rapper A.M., Arian Miller is the name that I was born with. I'm a rapper, battle rapper, photographer, videographer.

42
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:12,000
I fight, I love all of those things. And my father as well. Father literally comes before everything and anything.

43
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,000
I've been a rapper for a long time. I'm an A&R for Hear My Voice.

44
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,000
Also, this is the third podcast that I work on. My second one is on hiatus.

45
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:26,000
But I still every once in a while vent on my solo podcast. So I have a nice amount of experience with this.

46
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000
One of the big things that I'm doing this year and going forward is I'm helping build this.

47
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:35,000
Co-host Doc brought me on, trying to do my best to make sure we move this in the right direction.

48
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:43,000
We already have. And I'm going to use this platform to put eyes on everything that we all collectively are doing, no matter if it's music or anything else.

49
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:49,000
That was an amazing elevator pitch. I just want to sign you right now. It gives me a little good butterflies inside.

50
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,000
Thank you. Yeah. Let's see if I can let's see if I can match up with that candy.

51
00:04:53,000 --> 00:05:01,000
So my name is Doc J. Used to go by Mike Medic. Real name is Joselito. I'm a big mutt. I'm part Italian, part Slovakian, part Puerto Rican.

52
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,000
I was born in upstate New York, Westchester County, Sleepy Hollow.

53
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:12,000
Moved down at a very, very, very early age. Lived in South Florida for like 27 years. And now my wife and I are in central Florida.

54
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:17,000
I have a degree in copyright trademark law and also a degree in civil engineering, designing roadways.

55
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:23,000
I've interned at three different record labels, Sony Music, Atlantic Records, and the latest one was Epic Records.

56
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:30,000
I now have this wonderful collective and family of friends and crazy people called Hear My Voice Entertainment and Publishing.

57
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,000
And this is the relaunch of the podcast that I said I would never, ever, ever do.

58
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:40,000
But I got the two co-captains comrades that are dragging me along and I'm having so much fun with it.

59
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,000
I like to sit on music conferences. I like to answer questions.

60
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,000
I generally point towards like the lawsuit and copyright law side of it.

61
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:53,000
But I just want people to know how to do things right and get on the radio and actually make a bag and make a living out of music business.

62
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,000
That's all I'm about.

63
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:58,000
So last but not least, I know we got the you always gotta say the best for last.

64
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:05,000
So my name is Candelario Villarreal, aka Candy, aka Too Sweet in the Streets, Extra Spicy in the Sheets.

65
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,000
I'm from Brownsville, Texas, the southernmost tip of Texas.

66
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,000
I started out doing local parties, moved myself into the promoter space.

67
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:17,000
And now I'm expanding my business as I joined Hear My Voice Entertainment, where I focused on artist development and being a marketing director.

68
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:22,000
I plan on expanding my musical market in the area and becoming a prominent figure within my community.

69
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,000
And let's get it on, baby. Let's go.

70
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,000
That was equally good, too, man. I'm proud of you guys.

71
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,000
We are the Twisted Critics.

72
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,000
So and come along with that is that we like to share a drink or multiple together.

73
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,000
So this is what you drinking on Candy. What are you drinking on, my brother?

74
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:41,000
So just to be sipping on, I got to make a little gold by one of the smoothest beers.

75
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,000
It is organic as well. You know, try and watch the figure.

76
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:50,000
And then we take shots. I got a similar but different model of book on us.

77
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000
So, Doc, what you drinking on?

78
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:58,000
All right. So in ode and respect to our special guest, I am drinking a wine, a red wine, Italian red wine.

79
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,000
My favorite wine is a Melbeck. But my second favorite wine is a San Giovese.

80
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:08,000
This is from a Tuscany brand type of wine that's from Tuscany, Italy.

81
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,000
It goes with like almost everything I could cook with.

82
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:16,000
And it's also a really good cooking wine, too. Pretty dry, but has a little like light sweetness that I enjoy about it.

83
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:22,000
And then in the case that you guys make me slip up on a WFW wrong fucking word of the week, I got some Bacardi Raspberry.

84
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,000
That's what I'll be taking shots with. So hopefully we don't slip up too much.

85
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,000
But A.M., what you drinking on, fool?

86
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,000
I'm pairing up a bit of Tenth Ward. I'm ginning here.

87
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:36,000
It has some rye in there. So it's a gin of a inspired gin.

88
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:41,000
Fifty percent natural cane spirits, fifty percent whiskey distilled from rye mash.

89
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,000
And then in my left hand, I have queen bees meats.

90
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Both of these drinks are literally made by ladies. And I love that.

91
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,000
But just because it's made by ladies doesn't mean that it's not strong.

92
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:57,000
That's what's up. So if we're going to kick this off right, we have to kick it off the correct way.

93
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,000
Everyone raise a glass, whatever you're taking for your shot.

94
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Today, I'm rocking with the Puerto Rican shot glass, if you guys want to see that real quick.

95
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:09,000
And raise a glass. This is in honor to you boys and for a great show.

96
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,000
And hopefully Rob rides with us and gets intoxicated as fuck with us.

97
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,000
I believe he will.

98
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,000
All right. Salud, boys.

99
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,000
Salud.

100
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:26,000
As always, we as Twisted Critics want to do our best to make sure we the guests and listeners break the ice,

101
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:38,000
get comfortable, get loose and join in the fun by using our little torturous banana peel buzzword each episode that we call the WFW or the wrong fucking word of the week.

102
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:42,000
You ain't lying, man. Every time someone slips and says it, everyone takes a shot.

103
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,000
No questions asked. OK, it's your turn, Doc, to pick it.

104
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,000
We've all read Rob's bio. He reviews with us on the panel each week.

105
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,000
But what kind of evil term are you thinking of messing with our afternoons with?

106
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,000
I think we've all had a long week. I know I have and it's about to be another long week.

107
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,000
I got to actually take care of someone's chickens for the next eight days, which I am not ready for.

108
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,000
And I have to actually go there before I go to work. So I'll be dressed up dealing with chickens.

109
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,000
So let's go. I'm ready. Us knowing our Miami brother pretty well.

110
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,000
Today, our WFW. I've got a very, very mean one.

111
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:17,000
I'm going with the term review and any other tense or derivative of it.

112
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:22,000
So review, reviewed, reviewing, reviewed. I don't care.

113
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Anything related to review we drinking on. I think I'm going to get him and I think I'm getting us to.

114
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:32,000
You are. All right. So we're going to move on to segment three. It's going to be time capsule.

115
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,000
So we're going to turn back the clock a little bit.

116
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Episode number three consists of the date 917 to 923.

117
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:47,000
And we're going to take a quick look at the dates throughout all of urban music history.

118
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:52,000
First and foremost, let's give some props and pay some respect to those who are not here right now to receive them.

119
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,000
I'm going to kick it off this week. We've got six deaths starting September 19th.

120
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,000
We have DJ Rock Rada. He passed away in 2009.

121
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,000
Big New York Hot 97 DJ that would break a lot of independent underground rappers.

122
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:11,000
September 20th, we have Sarah Dash. She is a member of Patti LaBelle and the Bluebirds.

123
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:19,000
She passed away in 2021. September 20th, we got seven Hardway passed away in 2022.

124
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,000
And it's number 21st. We got Shadi Lowe passed away 2016.

125
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:29,000
Then we're going to go to September 21st. We have Looney the Goat 2022.

126
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:35,000
We have September 22nd. It's going to be Vesta Williams. She passed in 2011.

127
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:41,000
What's interesting with this week, boys, is Rob, I showed a screenshot of this and he goes, I never heard of any of these people.

128
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,000
And I just started bugging out. I'm like, you better do some research, man.

129
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,000
So it's like I can like name something about all of them.

130
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,000
But like Rock Rada is predominantly someone that will break music on the radio.

131
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:54,000
Sarah Dash, like I said, with Patti LaBelle. Seven Hardaway.

132
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:59,000
He was an artist that was big on mixtapes. And I believe he came out of the Virginia scene.

133
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,000
Yes.

134
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,000
Looney the Goat. Looney the Goat is actually a one.

135
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,000
You know how there's all those Texas rappers that Kandi has up there that blew up in the late 90s?

136
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,000
Yes.

137
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:16,000
Looney the Goat is one person from the Baltimore scene that would sell 50, 60, 70,000 mixtapes out of his trunk but never got signed.

138
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:21,000
And then Vesta Williams, she's one that she was like an R&B artist from like the mid 80s to the early 90s.

139
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,000
Started doing a little acting and kind of got off singing from that.

140
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:30,000
But much respect to all of them, RIP and you know, I don't, you know, I want all people to stay here and get their flowers while they're alive.

141
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:37,000
Now on a much happier note, let's go over and celebrate birthdays for the Virgo crew as the Virgos are sliding out the window, hopefully.

142
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Kandi, why don't you let them know and go first?

143
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,000
I got you, man. So this week we got a lot. So let me start off with the big V-Day shout out.

144
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,000
The blast, September 17, turning 31.

145
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,000
Actually, the fan of his music, I kind of like his, I don't know, I guess like his style.

Because I'm a thug.

178
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,000
I think that was really fitting for us having Rob on here.

179
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,000
He's from Miami as well. So that's what's up.

180
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaking of Rob, let's move on to segment four, the hot seat.

181
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,000
This is where we have a special guest.

182
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:59,000
And ironically this week we have one of our family members, Rob from the Mob, representing Miami.

183
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,000
I feel it's time that we open the phone lines.

184
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,000
Patchy from the Caller, are you up in this place, Mr. Rob from the Mob?

185
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,000
Man, I'm here with you. Good.

186
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Oh man, that's what's up. It's good to have family in here.

187
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,000
I don't think you and Candy have heard each other on the phone yet, have you?

188
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:15,000
It's a first.

189
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,000
It's a first. That's what's up. So I'm very proud of that, man.

190
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:23,000
So awesome, man. The bumping and dumping panel feels complete.

191
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,000
Greetings, bro. If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time I'm hearing your voice.

192
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,000
What you're drinking on, man?

193
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:33,000
Man, I'm drinking on some Don Julio Rosado 1942.

194
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Let's go.

195
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,000
I could share a little bit with y'all, but it's definitely a toast for the Hear My Voice crew.

196
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Mr. Rob, I am representing for you. I usually drink liquor, but today I'm drinking wine.

197
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,000
Well, for my shot I got some Bacardi Raspberry, so I guess I am drinking some liquor.

198
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:53,000
But real quick before we go into your intro, I want you to see like, I'm a big Melbeck fan,

199
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,000
but when I cook a lot, I like Tuscany wines.

200
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:01,000
So I got some Sangiovese, which I really, really love. This is like my second best go-to wine.

201
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:05,000
And it's good sipper because it really mixes with every food, and I could cook with it too.

202
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:11,000
So in your Smollier type of setup, you know, teach me something about Sangiovese.

203
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,000
Just take about a minute. I want to know what I'm drinking on.

204
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,000
Well, the good thing about Italian wine is it's food-friendly wine.

205
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:23,000
Like you said, if you're going to an Italian restaurant, you know, you're eating Carbonara,

206
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:28,000
you're doing anything with any type of Italian ingredients, you definitely want Sangiovese.

207
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000
That's definitely their master grape over there.

208
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:35,000
So you definitely want to sip on that when you're in an Italian restaurant doing your thing.

209
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,000
So good choice, Doc.

210
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,000
See, I am. This is why I love him.

211
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,000
He definitely lets me know I'm drinking the right thing every once in a while.

212
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,000
And then if I'm drinking the wrong thing, he'd be like, mm-mm, mm-mm.

213
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,000
Trash. It's trash.

214
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,000
All right. So yes, sir.

215
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Now gentlemen, get your drinks ready before we kick it off.

216
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:55,000
Doc, why don't you do what you do every show and get the man his proper introduction?

217
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,000
All right. All right.

218
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,000
This is a brother of a brother of mine.

219
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,000
And now he's here, my voice for a little over a year.

220
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:06,000
He is Mr. Robert Lawrence, aka Rob from the Mob, representing M.I.A.O.

221
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,000
Originally from New Jersey.

222
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,000
He is a rapper, songwriter.

223
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,000
He is a big video gamer.

224
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,000
And he's one of my only friends.

225
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,000
I know that's a wine sommelier that's moved up tiers.

226
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,000
He also has his own company. It's called Elite Enterprise.

227
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,000
Am I right with that?

228
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,000
Elite level promotion.

229
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,000
Elite level promotion.

230
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,000
He has he has merchandise, he has clothing.

231
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,000
And like I said, the video gaming, he loves sports video games, especially boxing.

232
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,000
And him and I could talk hours on boxing if we wanted to.

233
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,000
So, Rob, with that being said, I hope I kicked you off right.

234
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,000
I hope you did you right.

235
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:42,000
But just like everything we hear my voice in the entertainment, Rob, I want you to elevate a pitch yourself real quick to our listeners and fan base.

236
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,000
Definitely, man. What's up, y'all? Rob from the Mob.

237
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,000
I'm in Miami Beach, Florida, originally born in Passaic, New Jersey.

238
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,000
And Doc hit all the points, man.

239
00:16:51,000 --> 00:17:00,000
I'm an aspiring artist, producer, songwriter, just trying to make a, you know, make a change in the game, you know, taking small steps.

240
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Just bringing the music to the forefront.

241
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,000
Yeah, I do have my own company. We do our own merch.

242
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,000
We do our own designs, logos, things like that.

243
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,000
Doing well for myself with it. Thank God.

244
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,000
Definitely music is 100 percent of my being.

245
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,000
I live, breathe and sweat music. I love it.

246
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:22,000
And I'm just trying to take a different approach to the game, trying to do more of an underground level.

247
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,000
I've always been an underground artist, fan of the underground rap scene.

248
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:31,000
So I kind of follow in those footsteps versus the more more popular ways of doing it.

249
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:37,000
I like the other the backdoor method a little bit better than what we see is more commonplace these days, for sure.

250
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:42,000
But thank you. And it's an honor to be here with you fellas. Thank you for taking the time to have me on the show.

251
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,000
Yo, Rob, get your drink ready, man.

252
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,000
I got it here in my hand, baby. We ain't going nowhere.

253
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:52,000
So I got the first question. Is Rob from the Mob the only street rap name you ever had?

254
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,000
And here a freestyle memory where it really bailed you out.

255
00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:00,000
Yep, that's what I got. Rob from the Mob. I always thought it had a nice ring to it.

256
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:05,000
And yeah, it bailed me out of quite a few freestyles. I love to freestyle.

257
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,000
I'll write down lyrics for song for song purposes.

258
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:13,000
But in the end of the day, I love to get up on stage in front of people and just spit.

259
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:17,000
Rob from the Mob. One time I was just stuck, man.

260
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,000
Couldn't think of anything to say. And I was on stage.

261
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:26,000
And then I just pulled out the whole slob on my knob. I'm Rob from the Mob.

262
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:30,000
I had to take it from three six.

263
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,000
And man, I had the whole crowd saying it for like five minutes.

264
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Slob on my knob. I'm Rob from the Mob. Slob.

265
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,000
And it really helped. I didn't have to say another word after that.

266
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,000
And I had the whole crowd pumped, man.

267
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,000
It was pretty cool. And I actually won the contest that day.

268
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,000
That's what's up, Rob. The reason why we kind of slid that question in there is like, I know at least A.M. and I,

269
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:58,000
we've gone through a few names and then I always I started writing when I was 14, started rapping when I was 16.

270
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:03,000
So I went from MC 9-11 until 9-11 happened.

271
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:08,000
And I pulled that name with a pass.

272
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:18,000
And then I was since 9-11, I've been Doc J because everyone said I would doctor and fix people up and do the medical fixing and make sure I repair hip hop.

273
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:23,000
And for a little while, I went by Mike Medic. I think that was like during the Slim Shady days.

274
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,000
So I was like my alter ego. But I've always been Doc J as well.

275
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:32,000
So I think that's where that question came from. But, you know, it's kind of cool that that's been your name and your identity the entire time.

276
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:42,000
In me reading your bio, your bio actually names drama classes an early key to your art. Was there a role or performance that you could remember that made you realize that you had talent?

277
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:51,000
A specific role, maybe not as much as how much the school utilized me to do projects, I would say.

278
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:59,000
Maybe whenever there was orientations for like younger students coming to the high school or they would always use me to do some, you know,

279
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:05,000
performance, some sort of pantomime or some sign of, you know, two man act or three man act.

280
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,000
And it would always be like various things, but they would always choose me.

281
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:18,000
You know, I was one of the favorites of the class and they would use me a lot to do all these little performances and stuff like that.

282
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,000
So that gave me the confidence saying, hey, you know, I must be doing something right.

283
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,000
They always got me, put me in front of the crowd and stuff.

284
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:29,000
And I always loved it. I always got a kick out of it. So I was always eager to participate.

285
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:38,000
That was a nice answer. From your mom's political asylum and going from Cuba to Jersey to Miami, your family journey is very interesting.

286
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,000
How is your culture and background important to you?

287
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,000
Oh, it's everything to me, man. I really love Latin culture.

288
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:50,000
You know, I've been blessed to be raised in a Cuban household in the United States.

289
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:55,000
You know what I mean? Because Cuba's got some really crazy stuff going on.

290
00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:06,000
So I'm lucky and blessed to be here. And I actually, you know, got to grow up in that kind of environment, you know, speaking Spanish, you know, eating all Latin foods and learning the music, the culture and everything.

291
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:12,000
And it's beautiful, man. You know, I've got the best of both worlds, you know, because I'm also here in the United States of America.

292
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:20,000
So it's definitely something. And I represent, you know, my Cuban side and my American side to the fullest.

293
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:25,000
That's a badass answer, honestly. Thank you. But I got you one right here.

294
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:32,000
Prison sounds like a big turning point. Were there any lessons or experience you took from it, you know, just for your life?

295
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:39,000
And what did you take from it to add to your music? It let me know that God is no joke. God is real, man.

296
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:54,000
People will look at prison as something bad and something negative, man. I took it and turned it into the positive, the biggest blessing I've ever had, you know, definitely opened my eyes and made me realize that this stuff, you can't take it for granted.

297
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:00,000
You know, this is all a blessing. This is all a gift. Enjoy living to the fullest. I changed my whole life.

298
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:16,000
Did a 180 from before I went to prison until after I got out. And I wouldn't change a day of it for anything. And it definitely showed me that this life is worth living and to not take any of this for granted and just be thankful for everything I got.

299
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:27,000
So I think, you know, living every day with that kind of mindset is a blessing compared to not having that kind of mindset. So I get to enjoy every day. Like, it's just the best gift ever given to me.

300
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:32,000
I love that. Yo, Candy, that is a clip and a half right there.

301
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:45,000
Especially with a lot of minorities. You know, I got a family that either they were born here, raised in Mexico. When they came over here, got into trouble or they're trying to come over here from Mexico illegally.

302
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:58,000
So I know a lot of my family members coming out of prison. They don't they're not bad people. They don't even make mistakes. They just had to do what they had to do to to get by. So for sure, that's going to resonate with a lot of a lot of people for sure.

303
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:08,000
I feel you on that. Thank you, Rob. Since I've known you, you and I talk a lot about wine and your Smollier aspirations. I know it's hard work. I've seen movies on it.

304
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:19,000
So explain a little bit on what goes on between the different tiers. And also, is there something from the process that translates over to help you in the music business, too?

305
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:35,000
It's not only is it a personal hobby of mine, you know, I truly enjoy it. The knowledge of, you know, having knowledge of wine and things like that and spirits and stuff like that, especially where I live, where the, you know, the industry out here is mostly

306
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:47,000
restaurants, you know, clubs, you know, knowing what you're getting into being around these people that are in the business, making money, you know, doing it. And, you know, they come to me for advice.

307
00:23:47,000 --> 00:24:03,000
Everybody comes to me, you know, to talk about it and learn a little bit more about the stuff musically. It's also it's more stuff to rap about. Honestly, man, you know, I like I said, I'm a freestyle artist. I might throw some crazy wine wineries in my mix.

308
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:18,000
You know what I mean? I might talk about Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir. Oh, I know who you are. I just throw things in there, you know, just to keep the flow going. But yeah, man, I don't think too many people, too many people take it as serious as I do, and we're just fine.

309
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:29,000
You know what I mean? So I like having that upper hand, that knowledge, so when people start talking about it, and then you can also tell who's full of it and who's not, you know what I mean? You hear somebody acting like, oh, yeah, they start talking about this.

310
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:41,000
And in my mind, like, man, this man doesn't know what he's talking about. And I think that translates to their personality. After that conversation, you know what I'm saying? Like, this guy's full of it. I got to keep my eye on this dude, you know?

311
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:53,000
Yes, man, you're very similar with that freestyle aspect. So I damn sure understand exactly what you're talking about. I got one for you though. If you could share a drink, we're gonna we're gonna say beer, but I know that you drink wine.

312
00:24:53,000 --> 00:25:01,000
So we're gonna open it to drink as well with any person living or dead. Who would it be and why?

313
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,000
I'm gonna have to go with Cardi B, man.

314
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Didn't expect that.

315
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:16,000
If I'm gonna get lit with somebody, I'm gonna get lit with Cardi B. You can take that to the bank. Yeah, me and Cardi B gonna have a party, man.

316
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Cardi gonna have a party with Rod.

317
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:30,000
Yeah, Cardi gonna party and we're gonna make like three tracks after two. We're gonna be good. Me and Cardi B, I love you, Cardi B. I'm going Cardi all day.

318
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:39,000
I got you right here. Other than boxing video games that you stream, what's your go-to genre or what's your top three favorite video games of all time?

319
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:53,000
Yeah, the boxing game is definitely my bread and butter, but I'm an RPG guy, man. I like role-playing games, man. The ones that you just big adventures, you know, finding stuff, buying and selling stuff.

320
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:59,000
You got a certain game or a certain franchise that you enjoy?

321
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:12,000
Probably like the Fallout series. Okay. Skyrim, you know, those guys from Bethesda over there. New Vegas, you know, Final Fantasy. Yes.

322
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:20,000
I was looking for it the whole fucking time, but you named my second favorite. Keep going, my bad. Please say Final Fantasy. Go ahead, keep going, my bad.

323
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:31,000
I've been a Final Fantasy man since the first one, man. I still got the original tape. First Final Fantasy. I'm a big Final Fantasy fan, I'm gonna say. Bethesda, Fallout, Skyrim, all that stuff.

324
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:35,000
What's your top three though? Top three? In order.

325
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:42,000
Your video games too. Name all top three video. And we don't care what genre you name them.

326
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:51,000
Yeah, it's going to be Fight Night Champion, Final Fantasy 7, Skyrim. Let's go.

327
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:58,000
AM, I knew Rob had a good mind on him as soon as we got him into Twisted Critics.

328
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:07,000
All right. So since you are in the group with that question, you are pretty similar AM and I. You, AM and I are similar in that we also enjoy and are influenced by a lot of artists.

329
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:16,000
I know I've had personal conversations with you where you name this guy, this guy, this guy, this guy, this girl, and I don't care if it's Memphis, West Coast or Miami.

330
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:23,000
So my question for you is, who's your all time top five MCs in order? Your Mount Rushmore.

331
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:38,000
Oh, no. First and foremost, we go in the late Tupac Shakur, number one, all time. I love you, man. That guy, that guy is in my soul, man.

332
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:48,000
Like forget about it. Tupac, number one. Number two, I'm going Scarface, baby. I'm going Brad Tony Scarface, number two, for sure.

333
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:59,000
Number three, the late Pim C. I got to go Pim C, baby. Pim C from UGK. He's my number three.

334
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:12,000
Number four, man, I'm going to have to go with Wheezy, baby. I'm going with Lil Wayne. I think that guy is next level, elite level.

335
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:18,000
Number five, a lot of people don't agree with me, but I got to show New York some love.

336
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:23,000
And I think Rayquan the Chef is the greatest rapper to ever come out of New York.

337
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,000
And he's speaking my Wu-Tang talk right now.

338
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:33,000
Oh, this list is good. I'm thumbing up and pointing out of the whole time. That's Scarface. That's got I knew you would be happy for the Scarface.

339
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Hey, thank you, baby. That means a lot. Yeah. That's my top five. Rayquan number five. Yes, sir.

340
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:45,000
So if you weren't raw, just be an unbiased reviewer for a second.

341
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:51,000
What three artists best describe your musical vibe the best?

342
00:28:51,000 --> 00:29:01,000
I'm going to have to say Devin the Dude. Just because he's independent, he's doing his own thing.

343
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:07,000
He started in the biz, but he's independent. He does his own shows. He's doing his own thing. He writes his own.

344
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:12,000
He does everything himself. And he just rap about women. He rap about weed.

345
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:18,000
And he sticks to the topic and he just kills it, man. And that guy is definitely number one, my vibe.

346
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:26,000
Number two, Tupac. I'm going to go Devin first and Tupac second on my vibe because it's just his realness.

347
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:33,000
You know, like what he was trying to do and not too many people understand what he was trying to do is just keep that realness part in the rap game.

348
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:42,000
Definitely filtering out. He was trying his best to keep it, you know, keep it street, keep it hood, 100% real.

349
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:48,000
And that's definitely what I'm trying to do with my music, man. I don't, you know, rap about any of that funny stuff, man.

350
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:53,000
I keep it 100% real into the streets, man. What's going on out here?

351
00:29:53,000 --> 00:30:06,000
Number three, I'm going to have to say Drake because I want to be the best. And that man always puts his best foot forward.

352
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:11,000
He always puts 100% effort and puts everything into his music.

353
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:16,000
You saved, Rob, you saved yourself with the answer because I was like, I've heard your music and you sound nothing like that.

354
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:23,000
Oh, yeah. Our music style is nothing the same, but just his, the way he goes about it and his work ethic.

355
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:33,000
You know, I'm getting there. You know, I want to be 150% in working hard, pushing forward and just making, you know, making great music, man.

356
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,000
And I think he's a great artist, you know, no matter what anybody says.

357
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:47,000
So right now, two dates stat wise, what's your most successful song? And then apart from that, what's your personal favorite song that you've made?

358
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:55,000
That wise, I made a song called Mo Money. Mo Money is featuring a good friend of mine named A1A.

359
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,000
Shout out to Moose, Alan Artola. What's up, baby? He's on the track with me now.

360
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:10,000
You know, numbers aren't huge, but it was one of the first songs that I ever copyrighted that I've ever, you know, released, you know, through a distributor.

361
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:16,000
When I'm out in the street, people say, man, that Mo Money song, man, you know, that's a great song.

362
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,000
And I hear that a couple of times a week, you know.

363
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:25,000
So to me, that means more than the amount of spins or the amount of plays or views or whatever.

364
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:33,000
But when people come up to me and that song is years old. So when people come up to me today in 2023 and say, yo, that Mo Money song is tight.

365
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:41,000
It means everything to me. So I'm going to say Mo Money. My favorite song that I've ever made is a song called Let You Tell It.

366
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:48,000
That one I haven't released yet. That's about to be released, the next project being released. I do got the copyright for it.

367
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,000
I'm waiting for the album artwork to come back and stuff. But Let You Tell It, I say some,

368
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:58,000
I say some things that I really, really meant from the bottom of my heart on that. And it came out good with the beat.

369
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:02,000
I made the beat myself and it came out really, really nice. And I performed that.

370
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:07,000
I performed that song in front of the late Prince Mark E.D. and he loved it too, man.

371
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:12,000
He gave me so much love after I performed it, got the club at the time jumping.

372
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:19,000
And that's definitely my favorite one. Whenever that comes on or whenever I get a chance to spit that, man, something comes over me and I let it go.

373
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:23,000
And that's when it's time. First, tell us something that everyone should expect in your music.

374
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:31,000
And second, tell us something that people wouldn't know about. One thing about my music, I'm never going to come fake, man.

375
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:38,000
I'm always going to be 100 percent real. It's going to be real. Ain't going to be no. It's going to be true to the game.

376
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:44,000
Real code. You know, I'm not messing, messing around with that. I got to keep it right.

377
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Something that people don't know. I feel like I'm just the realest one in the world, man.

378
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:54,000
Like I'm trying to, you know, I'll never stab anybody in the back. I'll never rob you.

379
00:32:54,000 --> 00:33:00,000
I'll never do anything that's going to make you say, man, you know what? That dude, that dude is just a clown.

380
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:05,000
You know, like I'm going to come forward. You're going to say that's somebody that I can be proud of.

381
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:10,000
And I know I can always count on Rob from the mob. That's what's up, man.

382
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:15,000
We got a lot in common, but something else we have in common other than that, coming with that real stuff.

383
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:22,000
Like none of my music, I'm going to ever come from the angle where it's the popular appeal of cars, women, clothes, drugs.

384
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:28,000
I agree with you on that a thousand percent. So another thing that you and I have in common is we're both 40 plus.

385
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:37,000
We're 40 something something. We ain't no spring chickens. So trying to break into this modern rap market, you know, with our help, with Candice promotion,

386
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:44,000
with me trying to help you strategize your moves with some collabos, hopefully from AM and I.

387
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:50,000
Do you see one clear advantage and one clear disadvantage at this age of ours in trying to push your music?

388
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:56,000
I'll say the disadvantage first is that the more popular, you know, more popular music comes from the younger artists.

389
00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:05,000
I think we can agree on that. The more popular being, you know, the more streamed, you know, the more has a more broader range of listeners.

390
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:13,000
I think it's more on the forefront. You know, record labels are looking for the youth, you know, I think.

391
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:18,000
And I think it's great. You know, I love I love all the new music that's come out. Most of it anyway.

392
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:25,000
You know, like there's a there's a spot for that. That being said, I think that there's a spot for, you know, artists that are a little bit older.

393
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:30,000
You know, I think we have our own lane that we have that we got to take advantage of.

394
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:41,000
And, you know, the fact that there's not as many older artists trying to break in, I think, is an advantage, you know, because now they're like, oh, man, look at this guy.

395
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:54,000
He's 40 plus. Listen to him. He's killing it right now. You know, and I think I think you get a bigger spotlight as an older artist versus, you know, myriad of younger artists.

396
00:34:54,000 --> 00:35:02,000
You know, there's so many of them and many of their styles are the same. And, you know, they got, you know, similar things going on in their music.

397
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:18,000
I think you can always tell an older artist has got his own thing going on, man. And I think the individuality and the experience and the maturity that comes through the music, I think, is is it quite of an advantage?

398
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:25,000
So in your bio, you mentioned concerns with the industry direction. What's your biggest issue? And how do you plan on addressing that as an artist?

399
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:37,000
I have an issue of I don't want to say being selfish. When I say that, I mean, I want to make music with everybody. I want to make a song with you. I want to make a song with my guy over here.

400
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:50,000
I want to make a collab with this female who I think has an amazing voice. And I think my I don't sit down and say, you know what, I'm just going to do Rob from the mob. You know, I think that's my problem.

401
00:35:50,000 --> 00:36:03,000
You know, I always want to work with I think the fun comes from working with artists, doing things, having that vibe, having those moments in the studio, you know, laughing at the funny, you know, oh my God, what did you just say?

402
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:15,000
You know, like it's the whole experience for me that, you know, and you I feel like when we record, you capture that those those feelings, you capture those sentiments when I'm by myself.

403
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:32,000
And, you know, I'm not I'm not going to lie. I'm not having as much fun. You know what I mean? And I need to I think I need to start having more fun making solo, you know, my music, just me going forward, really, you know, putting more effort into

404
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:47,000
just me. And I have a problem doing that because I'm so into everybody else. I'm so into trying to help and I'm so in a, you know, bringing people in and bringing people together that I forget that about, you know, got to do Rob sometimes.

405
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,000
And I think it's an advantage and a disadvantage at the same time.

406
00:36:51,000 --> 00:37:06,000
I personally understand that answer. And that's something that I've been I'm not doing it down. That knows that knows that it's outside of us here. That is that it's been an issue of mine for a long time because you can be the boat.

407
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:17,000
Right. And you can definitely have those putting wind to yourselves, but you could also have folks that are going to be anchors in a negative fashion. So that's something that I identify with.

408
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:28,000
Never ever feel like you're being selfless and being selfish. Right. It's kind of the opposite. The more you're able to do for yourself, the more that you're able to do for others, especially if others aren't doing for you.

409
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:33,000
But that's in on a shirt.

410
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,000
I have to have to.

411
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,000
Well said.

412
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:50,000
I look, I'm happy to hear you talk as much as you talk the entire time. I'm over this motherfucker going this ship because I've identified a lot with what you said. And that means people have to have more conversation after this.

413
00:37:50,000 --> 00:38:07,000
Let's let's talk more. I'm down. I'm down to work as much as possible. But professionally in 2023, what are the two three biggest hurdles that you're working on and in your opinion that are holding you back from blowing up? I don't like the term blowing up.

414
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:18,000
I'll just say being more successful because again what you said about about being independent and things of that nature. We're going to just speak in just just growing biggest hurdles.

415
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,000
Marketing number one.

416
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:28,000
You know, making making the music and all that. That's, that's the part that I'm good at. I know how to do all of that.

417
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,000
And I'm getting better.

418
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:50,000
The marketing, I think, is is the part that is the biggest hurdle like hey how do we get this out there. How are we making money off of this. Putting my face more on camera or putting more on screen, you know, more exposure, you know, pushing the music.

419
00:38:50,000 --> 00:39:06,000
Who are we pushing it to, you know, why are we pushing it to them. You know, do they like it. Do they not like it. You know, I think, you know, doing the analytics and, you know, figuring out what's best for the actual music itself because once the you know once the music is out there.

420
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:26,000
Now it's just, it's not yours anymore. It's everybody's now, you know, when you're in the studio and I'm putting when I'm in the studio and I'm putting it in his mind, you know, I'm doing it. But now I'm saying to myself, okay, what do we do now, you know, we're going to do a show about this only only 20 people listen to this, are we going to do a show for 20.

421
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:54,000
That's the part that I think is the biggest hurdle for me is and I'm and I'm working on it, learning. I think it's a whole learning process and it wouldn't be fun if we weren't trying to learn at the same time, but yeah, that's definitely the biggest hurdle is just, you know, getting up getting the marketing and see how to really monetize everything with while keeping my, you know, keeping everything that dear to me and true to me real.

422
00:39:54,000 --> 00:40:23,000
I'm going to piggyback off you. I'm going off script on this one by, by am stood up. I'm going to give you a pro of yours that I don't think you even mentioned that I always respect about you and I'm gonna give you a con that I'm always going to be focused on helping you with one thing and candy you can see me when I, as I'm saying this one thing that's a pro to the core with the cat with Rob from the mob is he's definitely not only a general but he's definitely a soldier that knows, and he sees the vision when I'm trying to explain it.

423
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:41,000
And that's a hard thing to get across to some artists that are, you know, not being humble within themselves. They're all about themselves, where it's like, Hey, this is the vision. I'm trying to line this up for you. I'm trying to line this up for you. We've got the beat bank. Now we got this rolling out. We got a someone that's expert on marketing now.

424
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:56,000
So we're starting to get all the puzzle pieces and chess pieces and Rob has been one person that has always told me when I call them up. I already see the vision. I know what you're doing. Like I see the pieces on the board before you're moving them. So that's one thing I've already respected about you.

425
00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:13,000
And then the con where I'm always going to be focused to help you with is your procrastination. That's one thing that I'm focused like a motherfucker on to spur you on and get these things completed because you'll start a lot of things. Again, them done is the getting you past the finish line is going to be one of my jobs.

426
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:18,000
You know, I understand it. Yep, you went you to am but no, that's one.

427
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:34,000
Me three man. All right, next question, Rob. For your very first new mixtape under him my voice entertainment. Do you have a vision yet speaking of visions, a vision yet of what themes emotions or styles that you want to mess with.

428
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:51,000
I think it's going to be more than one I think every song, I feel like I make has its own personality has its own life, like in the mix day I might do, I might do a little R&B jam with somebody, or I might do a little bit of singing.

429
00:41:51,000 --> 00:42:04,000
I might do a little hardcore and just rap with no hook I might just do nothing but hook. I feel like once I'm in the moment. It's going to be different every time like there's no cookie cutter way to do it for me.

430
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:11,000
I can't I can't say you didn't learn me when you said Drake, I can't say you didn't warn me when you said that.

431
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:21,000
You never know, man, you might give me a you might, I might get an instrumental and be like, man, I'm just gonna have to sing on this. I don't know, you never know. I go by the field I go by the moment.

432
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:37,000
Somebody might want me to do sing on a hook for him. I'll do that too I might have to sing in Spanish, I might do some reggaeton stuff. I don't have and that's what I like about not being assigned artists, I don't have to follow nobody's rules, I mean they're going to do it the way I want to do it or I'm not going to do it at all.

433
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:44,000
Would you like to start an assistant artist? I mean, who we sound like?

434
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,000
Fuck rules.

435
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,000
Fuck rules.

436
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:59,000
Yeah, Rob, that sounds like I am to the core you guys you guys. We need to turn the bump it and dump it panel to a damn phone call. This would be amazing.

437
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:03,000
Hey man rapper AM I'm a fan baby. That's all I gotta say.

438
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:07,000
I'm a fan, though. I'm a fan.

439
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,000
I'm about to start a pot real quick.

440
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:13,000
So, we're going to collab with the whole fam and a bunch of records,

441
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:19,000
but if you can only feature one artist, who are you most excited to feature and why?

442
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,000
Man, I'm going rapper AM, baby.

443
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,000
Ayyy, okay.

444
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,000
I'm going rapper AM.

445
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:30,000
Honestly, your voice, man. I think our voices, you know, kind of like how 8 Ball and MJG, man,

446
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:37,000
when 8 Ball comes in and boom, MJG comes in and how they style and how their voices just complement each other.

447
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:43,000
I feel like me and AM could make a killer song, man, that I think everybody will enjoy,

448
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:49,000
not just from the content, but musically, you know, I think his voice and my voice together on the track would be dope.

449
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:54,000
I mean, I want to make a song with everybody, but definitely rapper AM for sure.

450
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,000
It's going to be rowdy.

451
00:43:55,000 --> 00:44:00,000
I got big homies in Baltimore. They'll love me on the track with somebody from out there.

452
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,000
You know what I mean?

453
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,000
It's going to be rowdy and wild for sure.

454
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:08,000
See, when you ready to do that Meth Verchef record with me, that's when you'll say me.

455
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,000
We could be Meth Verchef on that.

456
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:17,000
Man, taking on Doc J, that's, you know, those are big shoes right there.

457
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,000
We're going to be doing a whole lot.

458
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,000
Doc already know we're moving already.

459
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:22,000
We're already moving.

460
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:30,000
My last question is going to be a little deep, but what's the one thing you want everyone to say about you at your funeral?

461
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:35,000
I want them to say Rob from the Mob is one of the realest dudes I've ever met in my life.

462
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,000
Point blank period.

463
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,000
Put that on the tombstone.

464
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,000
All right. I got the very last question.

465
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,000
We're going to close off the segment of Hot Seat.

466
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:44,000
Last one, Rob.

467
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:49,000
In your opinion, what is more meaningful to you, loyalty or respect and why?

468
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,000
Loyalty, 100%.

469
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:57,000
People could respect you, but there's nothing like people that are loyal to you, man.

470
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,000
Like, I think it's just night and day.

471
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:03,000
Like, you could be, you know, somebody open the door for you.

472
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:04,000
That's respect, you know.

473
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:16,000
But when you go to jail and that person bonds you out, you know, put his house up, you know, his, he put his house up to get you on a bond, you know, because he's loyal to you.

474
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:25,000
You know, come pick you up whenever you need a ride or they lend you a bet, you know, lend you a thousand, two thousand when you need some money and got you, bro.

475
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:26,000
You know, loyalty, man.

476
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:27,000
There's nothing like it.

477
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,000
And I think that's my strong point, man.

478
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,000
I'm a loyal last dude, man.

479
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,000
Like you, my friend, you, my family.

480
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:36,000
And as long as you don't break that, I'm going to be loyal to you for the rest of your life.

481
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,000
I respect that the hell out of that.

482
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:42,000
So moving on to segment five, 100% facts.

483
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,000
With this segment each week, we'll start to get into the guts of radio success.

484
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:52,000
Facts about how artists are performing at radio and what Doc J does for work at media based charts, man.

485
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,000
Number one spot.

486
00:45:54,000 --> 00:46:01,000
OK, let's look and see who performed the best at radio last week and snatch that tippity top chart spot.

487
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:12,000
Tippity top at Urban National Radio Formats is fuck you mean by gonna with over six thousand six hundred sixty two spins per day last week.

488
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:15,000
No plaque yet, but it's successfully on its way to a gold certification.

489
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:19,000
It's currently also peaking at number three on rhythmic club charts as well.

490
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,000
And this is one I was actually wrong about.

491
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,000
And you guys know how rare that I'm wrong on something.

492
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,000
So this is why it's stuck in my head.

493
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:32,000
So it was shipped on 7623 by YSL Records 300 Entertainment,

494
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:41,000
debuted at forty six on Urban and forty five on Club and has climbed the last two months co-produced by Dunk Rock and Float.

495
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:49,000
Chattery cocky club rap single with hollering hi-hats and a bangerish Blair chord effect on the hook.

496
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:54,000
We're going to genuinely admit he's stressed with fame and just wants to make money.

497
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,000
I wish I had both those problems, man.

498
00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:03,000
As we always do here, my voice entertainment had previously reviewed this record for his label back.

499
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,000
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

500
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,000
Candy, what do you say? Oh, no, he read it.

501
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,000
It wasn't right. I read it.

502
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:13,000
I read it. I wasn't going to not read it.

503
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,000
I wasn't going to. You've been goofed.

504
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:22,000
You've been duped. By the way, by the way, Rob, Rob, for candy and a.m.

505
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,000
I made sure I sprinkled the word all over the slides.

506
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,000
So they're they're going to say it a few times if they're not paying attention.

507
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:31,000
So with that, this is our first race is our first fuck up.

508
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,000
Unless I mean, we're trying to be twisted critics.

509
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,000
So if anything, we're doing a good job.

510
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:40,000
So raise your sack lash. Show us what you're drinking on candy.

511
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,000
Candy, lead us in our special salute before we take our salute.

512
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:47,000
Oh, I got you. So barrio.

513
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:52,000
Barrio. Central and Palentino. Salute.

514
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,000
Salute. Yeah. Yeah.

515
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,000
I am and candy. I'm going to get both of you alive if you're not paying attention.

516
00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:00,000
Oh, no. All right.

517
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:04,000
So I said the R word this record for his label back in early July.

518
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,000
Let me just start over.

519
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:10,000
As we always do here, my voice entertainment previously are worded this record for his

520
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:14,000
his label back in early July on our Bumpeter Dump the panel.

521
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:19,000
Only two of us were present that week. It was Robin that ironically, they were both wrong.

522
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,000
But let's see who predicted it closer.

523
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:29,000
Rob from the mob guessed a 20 out of 30 urban and a 40 out of 50 on club and doc.

524
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:37,000
The master himself guessed the five out of 15 club in a 10 out of 20, 10 to 20 for urban.

525
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:41,000
And I'm wrong with both of those. It's number one on urban is number three at club.

526
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:44,000
I'm wrong twice. Whatever. Whatever.

527
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:47,000
I guess you can't be right every single time, right?

528
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,000
No, I am.

529
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,000
I percent now.

530
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,000
That's right.

531
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:57,000
So moving on from that, we got new breaking singles here.

532
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:02,000
We quickly highlight which new songs are breaking the entry on urban radio charts.

533
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,000
And we have four debuts this past week.

534
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,000
All right. I'm going to start with half of them. I'm going to do the first two.

535
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:12,000
We have bongos by Cardi B featuring Megan the Stallion shipped to radio on nine six.

536
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:20,000
Twenty three is debuting at number 33 on urban charts with one thousand one hundred and thirty nine spins per day last week.

537
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:27,000
Distributed by Atlantic Records produced by We Good, Brian Isaac for the 30s and DJ Swanko.

538
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:31,000
Also debuting at number forty six on club as well.

539
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,000
The second highest new breaking record we have is We Can't Forget Him.

540
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:43,000
Bobby Storm. That's that record that samples the the the regulate shipped eight twenty two twenty three.

541
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:48,000
Debuting at number forty three on urban eight hundred and fifteen spins per day last week.

542
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,000
It distributed by Tribby Records.

543
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:57,000
She's completely indie, largely tick tock viral with over one hundred and five million views in two weeks.

544
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:04,000
Ironically, her indie label is trying the mystique marketing method of initially not making the single available on any streaming services

545
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:08,000
or platforms or even YouTube off the off the jump, which I don't know.

546
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:11,000
That might be a good idea. That might be a bad idea.

547
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:15,000
It's probably going to be a combination, but I'm bringing it up the rear.

548
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:23,000
New breaking singles continue equal dirt by Rilo Rodriguez shipped to radio eight eleven twenty three.

549
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:30,000
Debuted at number forty four for urban with over six hundred and fifty two spins per day last week.

550
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:35,000
Distributed by GW Entertainment Capital Records, produced by Rilo himself.

551
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:42,000
Good job, Rodriguez, Paula, Barbara, G06 Beats, produced by Don Stephs.

552
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,000
All right. You know what? It's a lot of producers.

553
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,000
That's a lot of producers.

554
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,000
I was I was a bit doing this and I was like, what?

555
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:56,000
You got a room full of people tapping Stephs and KVXI.

556
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:02,000
And I guarantee that's like seven or whatever. Seven nine Barbie World by Nicki Minaj.

557
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:13,000
I spice in aqua is the next one is going to be shipped six thirty twenty three debuting act number forty five for urban with over five hundred and ninety seven spins per day last week.

558
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:20,000
Distributed by Atlantic and Republic slash Capital Records, produced by Riot USA.

559
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:23,000
That's it. One producer. Well, right.

560
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:27,000
You USA is a group, but I know it's a group.

561
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,000
I know it's a group. It's not like nine of them, though.

562
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:37,000
And also debuted at twenty five on Rhythmic Club and thirty eight on top.

563
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,000
That's what's up. So we have all rated.

564
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:45,000
We have rated all four on the past panels, including you, Rob, starting with Cardi B's bongo.

565
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:48,000
Let's see if we agree or disagree. Mr.

566
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:52,000
From the mob. Why don't you lead us and why don't you say what you thought about it?

567
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:59,000
All right. On bongos, I put I love Cardi B when she gets down and dirty.

568
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:04,000
She pulls no punches when she refers to female anatomy, a topic I prefer.

569
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,000
Megan D. Stallion is a perfect co-host for this show.

570
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:17,000
This will heavily influence provocative dancing no matter what the scenario thunderous base, wet sticks, snares and fun breakdowns bring a lot of energy to the table.

571
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:25,000
Impossible for her not to twerk something to fun, raunchy and almost uncomfortable just the way we like it.

572
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:32,000
I put I predicted ten to twenty on urban and twenty to thirty on Rhythmic Club.

573
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:36,000
And what did you rate it with to you gave it a oh, I gave it a I gave it a week.

574
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:40,000
Well, gotcha. OK, I will follow along with them.

575
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:53,000
Doc J. A nine fourteen said in fact to her label first collab since WAP is an uptempo percussive Latin spice thumper with raunchy energy produced by committee of We Good,

576
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:56,000
Brian Isaac for the 30s and DJ Swanko.

577
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,000
It's a loop of the term bongos or bong.

578
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,000
They actually say with high hats and a tricky baseline.

579
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,000
Cardi's Mick is mixed too loud in my opinion.

580
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:10,000
The steady robotic bonds, bonds, bonds, bonds, bonds gets annoying real fast to me.

581
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:16,000
Lyrically explicit. They try one up in each other speaking on pussy purses, sex and bad bitch attitude.

582
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,000
Cardi I actually like she started out with funny one liners.

583
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:25,000
I actually appreciated that part overall, though, mediocre and Megan's forgettable on this record.

584
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:31,000
I didn't like her feature on it, but fun ad libs, ratchet stripper summer appeal and both are stars.

585
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:35,000
So it'll chart high likely top 10 on both Urban and Club.

586
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,000
I probably should have did something similar to that.

587
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:41,000
And I gave it and I gave it a week a week dump, by the way.

588
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:42,000
You dumped it. Yes.

589
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:43,000
You dumped it.

590
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:50,000
What I said was I said the crazy thing is I like to be like Cardi had a lot of energy, but it became monotonous very quick.

591
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:59,000
There wasn't anything that either of them did to change the pace in either of their verses or change up how they were saying anything.

592
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:07,000
Even when Megan had the pops, the pop drums, like I don't know if you guys heard that there's a kind of thing which was dope for the beat.

593
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:11,000
Right. But in terms of her, she literally was still doing that.

594
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:19,000
The stuff that she usually does over that Megan flowed well and had a really cool personal quote.

595
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:22,000
I personally think that Megan should have gone first.

596
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:26,000
It's one of those the only songs that I have it like Cardi on in a while.

597
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:30,000
And now I see why I see all of the women on my timeline talking about the back shot.

598
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,000
Back shot sounds like bongos.

599
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:35,000
I never knew what the fuck they were talking about until now.

600
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:40,000
And now I know I don't think I like Cardi enough on this one.

601
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,000
I did like Megan, which surprises me because I don't like Megan much.

602
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:48,000
Twenty thirty urban and then I did thirty forty club and I gave it a week bump with a beat.

603
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,000
You're probably going to be wrong with those ratings.

604
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:51,000
Yeah, no, no.

605
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:56,000
Seeing yours and seeing Rob's, I think I agree with you guys just because of the fact that who they are.

606
00:54:56,000 --> 00:55:01,000
I used to that's crazy because I used to say that even if I don't like it, the fact that you both are superstars.

607
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:04,000
Right. Yeah. It's going to go higher.

608
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:08,000
So I kind of agreed with A.M. just had the opposite reaction.

609
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:11,000
So I said the beat goes hard. Really makes me move my shoulders.

610
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,000
Cardi B showing why she's the best female in the game.

611
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:18,000
The theme of the song was weak. I kind of just it didn't resonate with me.

612
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:22,000
But some verses I can see being used as captions.

613
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:28,000
Both Sonic clean, but the beat can be a bit overshadowing on some parts compared to their verses.

614
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,000
I didn't really like Megan, honestly.

615
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:33,000
I think she was a weak feature.

616
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:37,000
But I think Cardi right now, Cardi is the best female artist.

617
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:39,000
She. Yeah, she does, bro.

618
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:46,000
I mean, you could argue Nicki Minaj, but I think it's just her legacy that's keeping her up there.

619
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,000
There is Cardi Cardi over Nicky right now.

620
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:53,000
Cardi Cardi shows up with a lot of personality, and that's that's the one thing that I always like.

621
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,000
It's charisma and she's fun. Right.

622
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:59,000
The only thing that attacks it, too, like she she goes out like the last time.

623
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,000
Yeah, I like that.

624
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,000
Bro goes hard, bro. Yeah.

625
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:07,000
The only knock that I've ever had on Cardi had nothing to do with Cardi.

626
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:09,000
It was her boring mix that they would do on her vocals.

627
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:13,000
And they've been adding a lot of backing and effects on it.

628
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:19,000
I don't know if you've seen it, I haven't said it had anything bad to say about her before this song and maybe two years.

629
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:23,000
Yeah, I just felt like and I think you pick up on this on other records, too.

630
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:26,000
I felt like her vocals were mixed way louder than Megan's.

631
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,000
It didn't make any sense to me as just to my ears.

632
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:32,000
You know, I agree. And I'm surprised I didn't say that.

633
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:38,000
Gotcha. So second debut in single of the week on the chopping block for us is Bobby Storms.

634
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,000
We can't forget him. Two bumps, one dump.

635
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:46,000
And I'll start Doc J on nine six said newcomer Bobby has tiptoed both social media

636
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:50,000
live star and gospel R&B artist for a bit now.

637
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:53,000
But this is more much, much, much more urban.

638
00:56:53,000 --> 00:57:00,000
Her first national single heavily samples Michael McDonald's Keep Forgetting the same exact way Warren G did on Regulate.

639
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:06,000
What I do dig about is she lyrically pays homage to both records and actually gives like props to both of them.

640
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:11,000
And girl can really sang love her belt in her layering, her control.

641
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:17,000
It's viral right now with one hundred and five million plus tick tock views, understandably for the cool sample.

642
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:24,000
Well written, well mixed. Her indie labels being slow to ship it to stations and upload, which possibly adds more mystique.

643
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,000
But I'm not sure that will end or it or hurt it.

644
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:30,000
But while it's viral, I think it's going to do well.

645
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:34,000
I think it's going to climb to the twenty five to thirty five urban range and forty to fifty club range.

646
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:38,000
And in my opinion, they should ship it to adult R&B as well.

647
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,000
I give it a weak bump.

648
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:47,000
I get happy saying that someone else says that certain songs should be shipped to other other charts because I feel that way about a lot of music.

649
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,000
I've stopped saying that. I've stopped saying a lot of things.

650
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,000
But that's one of the things that a lot of time I hear.

651
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:57,000
And I know me and you go back and forth about about Afro beats with that and how they don't have a home.

652
00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:02,000
But I hear a lot of songs that get shipped to club or whatever R&B is.

653
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,000
I don't even know what the fuck they call R&B, whatever they call R&B.

654
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:10,000
Adult R&B, adult contemporary R&B is, I guess, the thirty and over crew.

655
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:13,000
What's the under that? What do they call that? Is that rhythmic?

656
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:16,000
No, that becomes urban. So like rap and hip hop station.

657
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:20,000
So it really doesn't have a home just like you and I have had the conversation by Afro beats.

658
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,000
It kind of sucks a little bit. It's the same deal.

659
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:27,000
Right. And I feel like I've heard me and you had this conversation about Alicia Keys and things of that nature.

660
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:32,000
She always needs to do both, do both. But just don't leave the adult contemporary out.

661
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:38,000
If you're making music that's fucking sexy, like like the real sexy, not not my pussy.

662
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,000
I'm talking like like that shit sounds Rob.

663
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:48,000
Rob, what I am speaking on is Alicia Keys had a three year run of about eight singles that all got shipped just to urban rap and hip hop.

664
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:52,000
Not not anything else. And one of those nine singles charted.

665
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:55,000
But I personally. What happened?

666
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:59,000
It did. Yeah, only only one of those nine actually charted.

667
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:02,000
And like it was like eight flops, if you want to call it that.

668
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:08,000
Now, the entire time our panels and not just us, but nationwide, have been saying you're shipping to the wrong station.

669
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:12,000
Your fan base has grown with you. You're 42 years old.

670
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:15,000
I'm 41. Like we've grown with her. We're in our 30s and 40s.

671
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:21,000
So therefore the people are going to that are going to listen to her and support her have moved on to the adult R&B station.

672
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:26,000
So the minute they did that, she had five singles in a row that charted number one on adult R&B.

673
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:31,000
And it's like it's that stubbornness that some artists think they're in a different genre when they're not.

674
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:37,000
So I agree with A.M. on that. Like I like to tell the labels, hey, you're shipping the shit to the wrong station.

675
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,000
I feel the same way about Beyonce sometimes.

676
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:46,000
I understand why she's she can go to urban because of her beats, but I would never leave myself off of adult.

677
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:53,000
But what I said in my my review and I literally looked at my bottle as I said that.

678
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:57,000
Come on, guys. My bad. I apologize. Rob, Rob, pull up, man, brother.

679
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:00,000
Pull up, man. I'm already look. I'm already inebriated.

680
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:03,000
That's why I probably didn't care. My shit tastes like water now.

681
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:06,000
I don't know. I'm about to go get in the trouble on my sons here. Thanks, guys.

682
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:09,000
Listen, my shit does not taste like water. My shit tastes like rum.

683
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:16,000
That tastes like raspberry, by the way. Salute to all your boys.

684
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:18,000
So what I said, it was a very clean sample flip.

685
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:22,000
It was written very well, survived from the beginning of the beat.

686
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:27,000
And I'm usually I haven't been happy with samples over the last three years that folks been touching.

687
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:31,000
But this one did the sample justice. Strong vocals. The hook sounds great.

688
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:36,000
All in all, the mix was a one. And I like this a lot. I added it to one of my one of my things.

689
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:40,000
I didn't say it was not going to chart. Damn, I did that backwards.

690
01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Thirty forty urban. And then I said it was not going to chart on club week.

691
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:49,000
But would it be gotcha Rob, you're the third person on the panel that actually rated this one.

692
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:53,000
So what did you have to say about it? We can't forget him. Bobby Storm.

693
01:00:53,000 --> 01:01:01,000
Now, I am not a huge fan of samples. I cannot stand them. I respect them.

694
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:05,000
I know there's some great songs out there that use them that we've loved for years.

695
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:08,000
But I think in twenty twenty three, enough is enough.

696
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:11,000
I put we got another sample of Michael McDonald's.

697
01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:17,000
I keep forgetting with some pretty Bobby Storm vocals on top because she can sing the girl.

698
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:20,000
Chill R&B type vibes with decent lyrics.

699
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:27,000
Zero for originality, though, a cleaner mix than the original version gives it a more modern feel.

700
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:30,000
I think Warren G milk this cow dry.

701
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:35,000
So it's hard to think of anything else besides regulate in the original cut.

702
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:39,000
That's what I put. It has a good sound to it, but that's about it.

703
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:45,000
I said it was going to do 30 to 40 on urban 20 to 30 on rhythmic club.

704
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:48,000
And I gave it a week. Don't I'm sorry, man.

705
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:54,000
I just the samples, man, especially those big ones, man, that we've heard time and time again.

706
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:58,000
I just can't picture these artists sitting in the studio saying, you know what?

707
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:01,000
Let's make a song that I keep forgetting.

708
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,000
But I just can't. I just don't get it.

709
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:09,000
So Rob, where I agree with A.M. on this one, at least a little bit complete piggybacking each other.

710
01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:14,000
Like, I like the writing and the fact that she actually gave props to the Warren G record.

711
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:18,000
And she even gave props to some of the melodic lines of the Michael Madonna record.

712
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:24,000
So when you do it right, like give props to the old school people, I have a little bit more respect for it.

713
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:26,000
But I'm usually in line with you, too.

714
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:29,000
A lot of these drill records that sample something and don't change it at all.

715
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:35,000
I'm like zero for originality. You know, yeah, she doesn't get a pass for a show.

716
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:37,000
Given a shout out, I don't care.

717
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:40,000
Not I'll drink to that.

718
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:44,000
Shout out to Warren G. Let's just ruin this song real quick.

719
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,000
I'll drink to that, bro.

720
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:51,000
All right. So next up, it's going to be a single by Rilo Rodriguez equaled her three of us on the panel.

721
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:56,000
Three fucking dumps. And I said, it's hard to hear.

722
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,000
I hear a lot of little baby influence.

723
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:02,000
And when I say that, I mean that he auto tuned the fuck out of his main vocals.

724
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:07,000
But I literally hear I only know the song from the last part on TikTok.

725
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:10,000
Who dis foe? Who dis foe?

726
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,000
I was like, ah, the condom thing.

727
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:15,000
I actually hate that shit.

728
01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:22,000
And it makes me get upset because the song at that point is a phenomenal fucking song.

729
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:27,000
So I have headphones when I was listening to this and it was still hard to hear any words that he was saying.

730
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:36,000
I understand that we have accents and things of that nature, but the auto tune on top of accents and the ill pronounced words have me only catching three words per fucking sentence.

731
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:40,000
It makes me feel old. I actually felt the vibe. I knew what they were going for.

732
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,000
I love the beat, but it's a no for me.

733
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:48,000
4050 Urban is not sharp, no club. And I gave it a strong fucking duck.

734
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:50,000
I did not disagree with my brother.

735
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:56,000
A.M. Doc J said on nine six we sent to the label Rilo's new one is troubled relationship.

736
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,000
Emo melodic future.

737
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:00,000
As mumble trap.

738
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:04,000
It was trying to sound too much future and got got penalized for it.

739
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:15,000
Produced by a big committee of Rilo himself, Paula, Barbara, G.O. six beads produced by Dodge, Steph, Spazzing and KV eight or I don't even know KV nine.

740
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:16,000
I don't even know.

741
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:21,000
It's a soulful vocal chop, hi hat, springy bass, midi claps and some nice keyboard work.

742
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:22,000
I'll give him credit on that.

743
01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:30,000
He tries sounding genuine on it, discussing their issues, them both cheating, even take some blame and happy.

744
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:31,000
She got an abortion.

745
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:37,000
What? No way too much reverb auto tune for my taste.

746
01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,000
It became inaudible.

747
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:40,000
Certain parts.

748
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:48,000
I'm not sure if he's sad or mad or just high music game bad yet the vocal sound quality sucks.

749
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:52,000
He had decent radio run lately, so it'll chart more than likely.

750
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:56,000
And I'd but I'd like to hear someone that's actually lyrical on this beat.

751
01:04:56,000 --> 01:05:00,000
Someone like myself for a.m. to rap over this beat.

752
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,000
Yeah, I'd like to hear what you say on this beat.

753
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:05,000
And but I predicted 30 to 40 on both urban and club.

754
01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:08,000
I think it's going to chart on both, but not very long at all.

755
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:09,000
I give it a week.

756
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:11,000
Man, this is equal.

757
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:17,000
It was one of the worst songs I've heard in a long time.

758
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:20,000
You know, props to do for doing it.

759
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:28,000
Even if it's a song I don't like, I always give credit to the artist for getting to the studio and putting the work in and actually making the damn song.

760
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:37,000
But this one here, I put first of all, I strong dump the hell out of this equal dirt by Rilo Rodriguez.

761
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:40,000
Rilo Rodriguez sounds like a poor man's little baby.

762
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:43,000
The mumble rap auto tune is terrible.

763
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,000
The pathetic attempt to mimic future is just as bad.

764
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:49,000
The 808s are the only thing popping here.

765
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:53,000
No vibe, no message, no theme, no originality.

766
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:55,000
I said, I'm not into this at all.

767
01:05:55,000 --> 01:06:01,000
I think it's going to go 30 to 40 on urban because it had a strong, you know, debut position.

768
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:02,000
But that's it.

769
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:04,000
And I strong dumped it.

770
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:08,000
Man, I think that that song is everything that's wrong with music today.

771
01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:11,000
But hey, props for doing it.

772
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:15,000
Props for getting in the studio and putting in the work just because I don't like it.

773
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:18,000
Just because I don't like it don't mean it's a bad song.

774
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:20,000
You know, some people probably love that, but not me.

775
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,000
I thought it was terrible.

776
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:25,000
I'm glad I'm never going to listen to that song ever again.

777
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:33,000
Last but not least is Nicki Minaj's Barbie World had four reviewers, three bumps and one dump.

778
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,000
Oopsie. Oh, fuck.

779
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:38,000
That's another shot. Oh, no.

780
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:42,000
I missed it. Oh, fuck.

781
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:45,000
All right, guys. Salud. Rob, you're taking a shot with us, by the way.

782
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:48,000
Oh, shit.

783
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:52,000
Oh, Rob, I'm raising my glass to you, brother.

784
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:57,000
You pulled the record.

785
01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:59,000
Yo, candy. He just pulled it.

786
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:03,000
Candy. He just pulled a practice practice.

787
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:07,000
We going we going redemption. Now I got to redeem myself.

788
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:12,000
We're going redemption. I need I need to hear Rob from the mob intoxicated by the end of this episode.

789
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:16,000
So so on seven for I said I low key like it.

790
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:21,000
It makes my head bob for sure. A little too short for my liking, but I do enjoy the song.

791
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,000
I'm digging the new drill style coming out.

792
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:29,000
I did have a little trouble understanding some of the lyrics through the original song playing over it.

793
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:32,000
But majority was clear and clean.

794
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:38,000
So I gave it a 10 to 2 on rhythmic club and I thought I was going to go 30 to 40 on pop.

795
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:39,000
I gave it a week bump.

796
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:43,000
Did 10 to 20 on Rhythmic Club? Yeah.

797
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:47,000
OK, I heard 10 to 2 when he said that I was like, wait, what?

798
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:50,000
I said what I said. I said what I said.

799
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:53,000
I am your turn, brother. I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it.

800
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:57,000
No, it's a me and then you, Rob. So you got a little bit time.

801
01:07:57,000 --> 01:08:02,000
I just like the beating personally. I don't like the drill beats and the vocals on nostalgic songs like this.

802
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:07,000
It borderlines or borders corny. The hook hits and makes you want to dance.

803
01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:13,000
The song is going to do numbers. You can't help but want to dance to the hook itself.

804
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:16,000
It's a short replayable song with good quality.

805
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:22,000
I know it sounds weird that I put all those things together like that, but I don't like it and I don't hate it.

806
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:26,000
I think it's going to do well because of the ladies, which is what the fuck I should have said earlier.

807
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:31,000
But I'll give it a week bump because of the intelligence of what they did.

808
01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:37,000
It's smart 10 to 20 for club 30 to 40 to pop. And that's it. It's not going to chart on urban.

809
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:42,000
I heard that the only reason they did that was because Aqua didn't want their song to be featured on the film.

810
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:46,000
See, but that makes sense to me. Like, why not?

811
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:51,000
And in my I almost said it in my rating, I actually explained the bigger problem.

812
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:59,000
It's not Aqua. Aqua got paid for this candy. So they actually don't they don't care because it's actually debuting at Rhythmics on Club.

813
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:05,000
I'm sorry. It's actually debuting on Urban. So A.M. got that one wrong for sure.

814
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:11,000
But all right. So what I said to her label was Barbie's film is due mid July.

815
01:09:11,000 --> 01:09:19,000
And here's a clubby sample drill for a single pair in this year's new it girl I Spice with Barbie persona Nicki Minaj.

816
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:32,000
The riot USA beat rides heavy on a aquas to 1997 hit Barbie World Loop over a spread of speedy syncopated drill drums and 808s already controversial because the rapper

817
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:41,000
problem and sweetie are on social media is claiming that Nikki stole the entire idea from Sweetie's IG live of them making the beat.

818
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:44,000
But they didn't copyright it. Oh, no. Yeah.

819
01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:54,000
So what happened was I think I don't and I don't blame all of it on Nikki. I think riot USA heard them do that made the beat so it's Nikki and copyrighted before Sweetie did anything with it.

820
01:09:54,000 --> 01:10:01,000
So I may not put all the blame on Nikki but damn sure she knew about it. I think we got to put the blame on Sweetie though.

821
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:11,000
That's the number one thing you always say copyright. Yep. Yep. Well, the thing is I don't think Sweetie and problems finished making the record they played around with a Barbie beat and like oh we should ship this to the Barbie film but they didn't.

822
01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:23,000
You know that was their own bad. Plenty of raunchy Barbie metaphors on partying and being bad bitches. Good energy yet repetitive and bubblegum corny. I agree with AM on this one. This was really corny to me.

823
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:30,000
Real basic and super short at just under a minute and 50 seconds. These singles are getting shorter guys.

824
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:44,000
How well Princess Diana did it'll chart and be slower but be slower than expected. I think my guess is 10 to 20 at pop 20 to 30 at club and 35 to 45 urban week dump. I'm the only one that dumped it.

825
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:48,000
It was nice. I kind of I didn't love it.

826
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:53,000
Rob have you found it or no. Yeah, I got it. All right. You're next up brother.

827
01:10:53,000 --> 01:11:04,000
All right. Barbie world. You know I love the female artists man. I'm a huge fan. I love them. I'm starting to get sick of all the dudes.

828
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:12,000
I'm becoming a bigger and bigger fan of all those especially I spice. So I bumped it. I put a weak bump on this.

829
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:24,000
Even though it's a Barbie world song and I wrote I like how they have aqua as a feature artist even though this was her original concept because that was her original track. I put I love I spice for me.

830
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:34,000
For now I think I spice is the hottest female artists right now. I think so and personal person. So I put she has replaced Cardi B for me at least I put that there.

831
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:44,000
Nicki Minaj is still one of the greatest. This track is a version of Barbie girl where herbs and I spice I try to be funny there sorry.

832
01:11:44,000 --> 01:12:01,000
A track off the Barbie movie soundtrack which was a pretty cool concept. I've got it one time doing top 10 on rhythmic club 15 to 25 on pop and 40 to 50 on urban I I might have out reached myself and like I said I'm a fan.

833
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:12,000
I love Nikki. I love I spice and I think you know I put a week bump because I thought it was enjoyable. I thought it was fun. I have a question for a.m. and Rob both actually.

834
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:30,000
Do you think and this is just my personal opinion when we do these ratings. I'm being very careful my words here because I am a little intoxicated. But do you guys think with the movie coming out in July and this being shipped to radio July 4th and it taking this long to even debut at number 45.

835
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:46,000
Do you think I mean I even said that in my review it'll do it'll chart but be slower than expected. Do you think that's going to hurt its chance of climbing up. No I think after the movie comes out and things of that nature it's going to metadata metadata.

836
01:12:46,000 --> 01:13:06,000
My words and no matter what the fuck we do on Google Yahoo or whatever we're using for the search engine it's going to pop Barbie up at the top and it might not be the number one search but it'll be it'll be top 10. So I think with that even if we have mistake clicks and people not liking it people talking bad or down on it.

837
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:11,000
I think they're going to get enough traction for the song to do something.

838
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:14,000
Okay.

839
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:29,000
All right. So all right. So candy move on to the next spot then it's time for just the stats. This is where we separate radio from streaming and the men from the boys and a.m. from Doc. Everyone knows.

840
01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:48,000
Doc lies a.m. lies Rob might lie. I'm not too sure. So let's go through the more meaningful stats and an actual movement on the U.S. urban charts. So we got three of the biggest risers this week where number one there I go by Gucci Mane featuring J Cole up five spots from 34 to 29.

841
01:13:48,000 --> 01:14:04,000
It is up thirty seven point six more spins now averaging about one thousand three hundred sixty four spins a day. Number two we got meltdown featuring Travis Scott. Oh my bad. Meltdown by Travis Scott featuring Drake up four spots from 20 to 16.

842
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:13,000
It is up eighteen point seven more spins now with an average of two thousand five hundred and eighty five spins a day. Man Drake carrying that for sure.

843
01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:27,000
Number three we got endless fashion by little Uzi Vert featuring Nicki Minaj up three spots from twenty three to twenty with twenty two point three percent more spins now with two thousand two hundred sixty more spins a day.

844
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:46,000
All right. So if candy's got the biggest risers I guess I'm the dooms man this time I'm going to tell the biggest three drops this week. We got number one fight the feeling by Rod Wave it's down nine spots going from 16 to 25 28 percent less spins and it's now down to one thousand six hundred and eighty five spins per day.

845
01:14:46,000 --> 01:15:02,000
Number two is thing for you. Rilo Rodriguez featuring no cap it's down six spots from 31 to 37 seven point seven percent less now one thousand sixty seven spins per day and curious by NLE Choppa featuring that's not correct.

846
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:09,000
Curious is actually Eric Bellinger and fabulous and someone else by the way.

847
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:23,000
Oh no I'm happy you're here curious by Eric Bellinger down four spots from 22 to number 26 twenty two point six percent less now one thousand six hundred seventy six seventy three spins per day.

848
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:34,000
Hey I'm the drunk I am the drunk fuck of the fucking show. I thought it was six p.m. just now guys.

849
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:45,000
Respect to the Indies this week let me see if my eyes were properly point to me in the rapper featuring Cardi B's up point point me to point me part two.

850
01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:55,000
Look see you see I'm just letting you know let me do it again. Respect to the Indies this week. Point me that's a point to me.

851
01:15:55,000 --> 01:16:13,000
One more time. Respect to the Indies this week. Number one is going to be point me to Bindi the rapper featuring Cardi B up to number 13 with 2774 spins per day which is a four point seven percent increase.

852
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:31,000
Calibans by Byron Maseya. Fuck his name. Fuck his name. I hate it. Up to 17 with 2273 spins per day one point four percent increase.

853
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:43,000
From sexy red. Wish I could see my face up to number 21 with two thousand one hundred and ninety nine spins per day. It's a twenty point two percent increase.

854
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:57,000
Not luck from Malcolm May feature a little baby up to 24 with 1764 spins per day which is a five point nine percent.

855
01:16:57,000 --> 01:17:09,000
I'm dying laughing because I could see your face you're on video. I know I'm going to my. I want to speak on what Doc he brought up Rod Wave they're cooking him on social media. Yeah.

856
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:22,000
He broke his heart so many times because he's fat. I'll say this though. Yo yo candy what's really funny with that and I think Jessica Bonilla one of our next guest and then the next few episodes will speak on it too.

857
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:34,000
In the state of Florida like he's that that Fort Myers Tampa area. He just did his birthday party there and he sold out a dam like that shit was like eighty five thousand people and it was packed.

858
01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:41,000
So it's like right now he's hot with a lot of a lot of athletes actually a lot of athletes listening man believe it or not.

859
01:17:41,000 --> 01:18:02,000
A.M. and I butt heads on artists like that Rod Wave and more a because it's like just like what's the state is like fucking give you on with your own ass.

860
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:15,000
Like I like giving on to the music is derived from from Correios from Mexican shit. You know what I mean. I'm not trying to be offensive. I'm not trying to be offensive. I'll be singing. That's why Rob said that shit earlier right.

861
01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:25,000
My mother fucking mother says I sound like Kendrick Lamar J Cole and then she's like when I heard giving sing it sounded like you I said bitch fuck you.

862
01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:39,000
You remind me of a giddy on but you but you gave me Rod Wave. That's that's what she said. And look that's very fucking true very fucking true.

863
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:47,000
Give me I keep things moving. We're at the radio RIPs or the way a candy says it the radio rips the radio rips maybe rip it up.

864
01:18:47,000 --> 01:19:02,000
This is the deaths or singles that are actually fell off radio charts the top 50 at least ending on 9 10 23. Here we are given a final farewell to the singles that officially died and fell off the national rotation of commercial radio.

865
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:08,000
This week we had five condolences to Morn and Barry this week candy. Why don't you kick us off first.

866
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:17,000
But we got a search and rescue by Drake. It was shipped mid April had a five month run peaked at number five but it had no plaques.

867
01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:25,000
We have chromosomes by heat lock ship late May for one run and it peaked at number 19 with no plaque.

868
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:33,000
I don't know if you guys saw me clapping I was really happy to see a Drake single die. I know I know I gotta look at my screen clapping for a and putting in that word.

869
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:39,000
I was clapping for both. But all right. Number three that's falling off the charts is bluffing Gucci Mane featuring little baby.

870
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:46,000
It was shipped early July two and a half month run it peaked at number 27 and it did not earn a plaque.

871
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:57,000
So on the more successful part of it we got double back by Coco Jones. It was shipped mid June had a three month run but it peaked at number one and earned a gold plaque.

872
01:19:57,000 --> 01:20:06,000
Interesting fact with that do any of you three watch the reboot of Fresh Prince Bel Air. Yes and I know she's star I know she stars as Hillary.

873
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:12,000
She's Hillary. Yeah. So she had a conversation with someone at my job about it early on. Coco was fucking beautiful.

874
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:20,000
She's beautiful and she can sing too. That's the cool thing. Like she's got that almost Mary type of pain.

875
01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:33,000
And she's beautiful. Yeah. She's beautiful. She's fucking beautiful. And what's my brother. I got a go answer from Ali chopper in the L.E. fucking mouth.

876
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:43,000
Ain't gonna answer from NL each other featuring little Wayne. It was shipped early April five point five month run peak that number one but he didn't get a plaque.

877
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:50,000
That's crazy. That's ironic that the record where with the exception of bluffing double back was the only one that was three months or or less.

878
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:58,000
And it's the only one that earned a plaque. All these ones had like five months five and a half months don't earn plaques. That's crazy to me. So are they really successful.

879
01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:06,000
Yeah. They're successful. They're successful because they're popular and you guys know my opinion about popularity versus profit. But that's another whole podcast.

880
01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:14,000
Profit over popularity. What are we talking about. Profit. Yeah we're gonna go with Rob. We all indie. We want profit. We don't care about popularity.

881
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:25,000
No. This is our segment six edutainment. This is my favorite part of the show where we like to help you listeners and make you listeners that email us actually the stars of a segment.

882
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:40,000
If you don't know already we have a Facebook fan page www.facebook.com backslash twisted critics close your parentheses if you fancy like that a mailing list that you can subscribe to and a twisted critics business email which is going to be twisted critics at mail.com

883
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:56,000
Don't confuse it with Gmail Y mail a male female where anyone can send in business questions help. That can I even text people. But this is where we pull two questions make you the star and myself. God will pull you through and guide you through the answers.

884
01:21:56,000 --> 01:22:10,000
Can you. Why don't you do the honors me. Hermano I got stuck literally sitting here saying how the fuck do you say brother in Spain. Let me get my hat ready. I got the questions right here.

885
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:31,000
And first up we got Sandra Blanding from New York. She says I have my own distribution and my artist I'm pushing named Yellow Zoo who I'm thankful to see royalties for. My question is has a rush has a registration process through media based change.

886
01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:51,000
And where do I access it. Just number two we got die witness a.k.a. Genesis from that is a unique name. Honestly I'm be real to you. I don't got my glasses. I'm a little tipsy. I'm probably mispronouncing it. Yeah I'm winging it right now bro. I'm pulling an AM saying

887
01:22:51,000 --> 01:23:09,000
I be a is that what Virginia. Yes Virginia. He's from Virginia. I just added him on social media two nights ago too which is pretty ironic that you pulled that question. So that's so yes. If you plan to release content under creative common license is it still necessary to copyright the content.

888
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:26,000
All right. So first of all I'm going to answer these questions with an answer but I'm also pose questions to both Rob and a.m. because they're the two artists in this. So first of all starting with Sarah Blanding from New York. What's up New York where I was born at.

889
01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:39,000
She is she has earned distribution and artist she's pushing Yellow Zoo. She's seen royalties but she wants to know has the process for media based change the process for media based has not changed since 2003.

890
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:52,000
So unless she hasn't submitted anything for media based encoding in 20 years it definitely hasn't changed. Rob do you know how to submit anything to media based right now because that is my job.

891
01:23:52,000 --> 01:24:02,000
Man I'm going to call Doc J and be like you know Doc J I need to submit something to media base and then we're going to take it from there.

892
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:10,000
That is what's and that's that's the proper way to do like that's where I have respect for artists that go to conferences and be like I don't know how to do this but I know who to call for it.

893
01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:22,000
So all right. So Sarah to explain this to you very very simple if you do a Google search there's a website called WWW to dot media based dot com.

894
01:24:22,000 --> 01:24:29,000
If you do a Google search for in code to media base it's going to bring you I think it's like the third or fourth link down.

895
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:34,000
I haven't done the search but it's like the third or fourth link fourth link down for new music notifications.

896
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:43,000
So you don't register music to media base like you would like a performing rights or you you register your music to be my ASCAP CSEC SOCOM etc.

897
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:50,000
You register a copyright application form for media base we call we do what's called code encoding.

898
01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:54,000
You find that encoding new music notification form.

899
01:24:54,000 --> 01:25:04,000
I have it open on my screen right now it asks you very simple questions name company phone email exact title from the copyright.

900
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:08,000
So therefore you got to have a copyright first don't encode it before copyright.

901
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:17,000
If there's any feature on it the official release date if it has already been illegally released like without a copyright and your ISRC code.

902
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:24,000
So all that you fill it out and at the very bottom there's a song audio choose file from computer and you upload it from it.

903
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:32,000
So it's super easy the minute you upload it from it you can only do one song per application form or per encoding.

904
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:38,000
You upload it with that choose file part and then you hit submit and it takes us 48 to 72 hours.

905
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:40,000
So two to three days to encode your record to media base.

906
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:47,000
So we're one of the quicker steps your biggest concern will be you get in that copyright first and you get in your ISRC code.

907
01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:50,000
Once you have those two in hand this is your next step that you should be doing.

908
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:54,000
So that was a really good question because a lot of people don't know that.

909
01:25:54,000 --> 01:26:02,000
But no the process hasn't changed since 2003 and Candy please refresh my memory because I talked way too much for that one.

910
01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:03,000
What's the second question.

911
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:11,000
It was if you plan to release content under a Creative Commons license is it still necessary to copyright the content.

912
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:14,000
All right. So Jai Jai witness from Virginia.

913
01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:19,000
I'm going to go to A.M. on this one. Do you know what Creative Commons license was even created for Mr.

914
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:21,000
Rabbit A.M. Isn't it.

915
01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:25,000
Isn't it. Wait. So I used to see this all the time.

916
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:28,000
Is it made for video. It's made for everything.

917
01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:30,000
So it could be for music.

918
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:31,000
It could be for audio.

919
01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:34,000
It could be for literature. It could be for resources.

920
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:38,000
So to answer Jai witnesses I want to answer this correctly for him.

921
01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:42,000
We got to give him a slight very brief history lesson.

922
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:50,000
The website for Creative Commons was created the organization is a nonprofit organization by the way it was created in 2001 and it was for university.

923
01:26:50,000 --> 01:27:00,000
So like when A.M. and I that was the time A.M. and I were in college when we were going to college anything that you're pulling for reports dissertations essays.

924
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:02,000
That is all considered Creative Commons.

925
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:18,000
So like when you go to like websites like Wikipedia that even falls under Creative Commons for the longest time for like half a decade they thought that they hated Library of Congress and copyrights because they give out everything that goes to Creative Commons license for free.

926
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:26,000
So with your question I'm going to answer your first half of the question if you plan to release content under Creative Commons license you don't want to do that.

927
01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:28,000
You want to make money off of your music.

928
01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:31,000
You want to make a living out of this. You want to pay your bills.

929
01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:41,000
If you did release it registered under Creative Commons license you are basically giving licenses for people to use it for free for non monetization.

930
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:45,000
So college students stuff graphics for photography.

931
01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:49,000
That's all under under Creative Commons license as well.

932
01:27:49,000 --> 01:28:02,000
So therefore the people that use it they get a license that says hey we can put this out for a college paper for you know local underground TV show and we won't get sued if we don't make any money off of it.

933
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:12,000
The minute they start making money off of it as long as the original creator has a copyright they can enact their copyright rights and say hey you got to pay me an actual license to use this.

934
01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:15,000
So it's kind of a two part question you asked there.

935
01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:33,000
Definitely necessarily necessary to get a copyright if you actually go and I have it open for you the Creative Commons website which is HTTPS colon backslash backslash Creative Commons dot org backslash FAQ backslash.

936
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:37,000
They actually give you that whole history lesson in long form that I just read to you.

937
01:28:37,000 --> 01:28:53,000
It explains that they're not against copyrights it explains that you need a copyright explains what the term some rights reserved means and that's what Creative Commons was it's a nonprofit org that allows all this content whether it be music photography video lyrics

938
01:28:53,000 --> 01:29:01,000
whatever to go on the line for students primarily to use for the reports and not be charged for it.

939
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:07,000
But if you are going to go that route, please copyright it before you submit it there and upload it.

940
01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:17,000
Wise words from the doc himself. That's right. I want everyone to make money off of this. This is our business. We have to make living we all got kids we got families we got wives we got bills.

941
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:23,000
We all need to make a little bit of profit out of this. Salute to that. Salute to that.

942
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:26,000
Oh boy we at our death part now.

943
01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:34,000
I'm already fucked up. We are now in segment number seven seven degrees of separation. All right.

944
01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:43,000
Just in case we haven't drank enough yet. This is what we're going to fuck this shit all the way up and change that. I got nothing else like I'm doing it all fucking shots.

945
01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:50,000
I'm sending messages to women right now talking about trying to eat that but whole when my son fall asleep. So so and I thought it was 6pm.

946
01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:56,000
All right. So since we are the Twisted Critics and rap AM is definitely a twisted critic right now.

947
01:29:56,000 --> 01:30:06,000
Since we at Twisted Critics have become Spotify curators we use this little game Rob to show and test our music knowledge and memory.

948
01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:13,000
A theory proposed in 1929 and resurrected by the music by the movie industry in the early 90s.

949
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:26,000
There was a running joke in the industry and a concept that that every actor and actress was somehow related or linked through movie roles or relatives to Kevin Bacon by either six degrees or connections or less.

950
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:32,000
We are crazy enough especially AM to test the same theory with damn urban music.

951
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:39,000
So Rob this is where you are curator to you are actually creating this playlist as you speak right now.

952
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:49,000
So this once this goes live on next Monday you can tell your homeboys your family your friends your girls whatever that you created this playlist with us in exchange.

953
01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:53,000
You got to play this game with us right now. Do me a favor and pull out a drink.

954
01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:59,000
Make sure it's in front of you because we're probably going to take a handful of shots if we ain't our P's and Q's right now.

955
01:30:59,000 --> 01:31:19,000
All right. This is rapid fire seven connections seven rounds 10 second guesses obviously no cheeky cheating and for each mistake that any of us make all of us take shots including the listeners we are connecting songs through collaborations not producers not writers not crews.

956
01:31:19,000 --> 01:31:23,000
Nothing like that. Do you understand this.

957
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:33,000
So I got to take a shot even if you get it wrong. Yes.

958
01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:36,000
So first of all Rob you understand the rules.

959
01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:45,000
I think I do. Okay. So last episode we left off on thug love by bone thugs and harmony featuring to pop.

960
01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:53,000
Why don't you make the first connection so you can use either bone thugs and harmony or to pop and connect them to another song.

961
01:31:53,000 --> 01:31:56,000
I'm going to go smile.

962
01:31:56,000 --> 01:32:01,000
And that's to pop to pop your scarface. Yeah. Nice.

963

All right doc you are one of my favorite songs of all time and my two favorite artists of all time. All right. All right. I love our days too. I think I love Scarface as much as Rob I'm going to go keep the Scarface line going on.

964
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:26,000
I'm going to connect smile with to pocket Scarface with can't be life. Jay Z featuring Scarface and beanie seagull.

01:40:24,200 --> 01:40:27,300
last one and I'm not talking about this not the speed of the

1096
01:40:27,300 --> 01:40:29,200
show, but the fact that we did this like two or three weeks

1097
01:40:29,200 --> 01:40:30,900
after we did the last one.

1098
01:40:30,900 --> 01:40:33,700

1099
01:40:33,700 --> 01:40:34,400
things from Buffalo.

1100
01:40:34,400 --> 01:40:37,600
